The Ontario premier is wagering maple syrup against the California governor’s wine in a lighthearted World Series bet posted to social media Friday.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says his government is eyeing legislation that would cap ticket resale prices as thousands of Toronto Blue Jays fans find themselves priced out of World Series tickets that are now reselling for thousands of dollars.

While making a friendly World Series wager, Ontario Premier Doug Ford told California Gov. Gavin Newsom to “talk to your friend in the Oval Office” if he wants U.S. liquor back on the province’s store shelves.

Earlier this week, the province of Ontario announced the Bill 56, Building a More Competitive Economy Act, 2025, an omnibus bill that is mostly aimed at reducing red tape, but also contains the legislation around banning speed cameras that Premier Doug Ford has promised would be coming.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford moved quickly Friday to emphasize the strength of Canada’s relationship with the United States, responding to a blistering post from U.S. President Donald Trump that accused the country of fraud and trade manipulation.

Advocates are calling on Doug Ford to keep his “hands off” transit lanes over concerns the government is considering banning the lanes.
