Donald Trump said he’d lob more tariffs on Canada, on Saturday. Hours later, Ontario’s ad featuring former President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs aired during game two of the World Series.
The ad was expected. The campaign was released by Ontario’s Premier, Doug Ford, and it has been the latest flash point in trade tensions between the US and its neighbor to the north.
The advertisement initially drew Trump’s ire on Thursday night, and he posted to Truth Social to say that he was terminating all trade negotiations with Canada. Ontario subsequently announced on Friday that the ad would be pulled by Monday, but only after it had been aired during Friday and Saturday’s World Series games.
RUN IT AGAIN!
Its old footage, anyone can likely use it. I think its really funny because sports commercials end up on tv in bars etc. So a bunch of people will see this.
Somebody should set up a poster version though.
