Trump Terminates Trade Talks with Canada
President Donald Trump has terminated all ongoing trade discussions with Canada due to an advertisement critical of the tariffs he imposed on the nation.
Tariffs "hurt every American"
The ad, sponsored by the Ontario government, quoted former U.S. President Ronald Reagan. Trump accused Canada of "egregious behavior" and "fraudulently" employing a fake ad with Reagan speaking against tariffs.
- Canada's ad featured a one-minute clip from President Reagan's April 1987 radio address.
- Trump announced the termination of trade talks on his Truth Social account.
Canada Prime Minister Mark Carney's office did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
