Trump blamed the ‘false’ ad in which former US President Ronald Reagan, a Republican hero, said tariffs are a disaster.
United States President Donald Trump announced that trade talks with Canada would not resume due to a political advertisement in Ontario featuring Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs. Despite Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s apology, Trump condemned the ad as misleading and increased tariffs on Canada by an additional 10 percent. The ad, which suggests tariffs lead to trade wars and job losses, has been paused by Ontario Premier Doug Ford to facilitate negotiations. Historically, the U.S. remains Canada’s largest trading partner, but relations have soured due to ongoing tariff disputes.
