Ontario Premier Doug Ford says he is not concerned about the cancellation of a planned Washington D.C. reception with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce earlier this week, following reports that White House officials lodged complaints about him with the chamber.
The chamber has publicly attributed the cancellation of the June 8 event with board chair Ross Perot Jr. to “scheduling conflicts,” but it has since been reported by multiple media outlets that the event was actually cancelled due to U.S. President Donald Trump’s disapproval of Ford.
