As President Trump continues his tariff attack on Canada, Ontario is using every tool available to protect our workers, businesses and jobs, including the power of government purchasing.
Through the Buy Ontario Act, Doug Ford and our Ontario PC team are prioritizing Ontario and Canadian-made products in government procurement while restricting U.S. businesses from competing for Ontario government contracts.
Ontario’s public sector spends approximately $30 billion every year on goods and services. Our government is working to ensure as much of that spending as possible stays here at home, supporting Ontario workers, businesses and communities.
That means prioritizing Ontario-made vehicles for government fleets, Ontario lumber, steel, machinery and other goods and services as we deliver our historic $236 billion plan to build.
Keeping more government procurement dollars in Ontario will support local businesses, encourage new investment and create more opportunities for Ontario companies to grow here at home. Ontario businesses have shown they can compete with anyone in the world, and our Buy Ontario policy is making sure they have every opportunity to succeed right here in our province.
At a time of economic uncertainty and President Trump’s tariffs, Doug Ford and our Ontario PC team will never stop fighting for Ontario workers, families and businesses.
And everyone can play a part. Whenever you can, buy Ontario-made, shop local and support Ontario businesses. Together, we can protect Ontario jobs, strengthen our economy and keep more of our dollars here at home.
