Windsor will see growing unemployment and have the hardest-hit economy in Ontario by 2026 as a result of the Canada - U.S. trade war.

Guelph , Brantford , Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo and London are next on the list of areas that face the highest impacts of tariffs.

The trade war employment impact for Windsor translates into a loss of about 3,900 local jobs.

Report: U.S. accounts for 77 per cent of Ontario ’s international trade and 60 per cent services exports.

In 2024 , an estimated 933,000 Ontario jobs were related to exports to the U., about one in every nine jobs in the province, the report says.
