US President Donald Trump halted all trade negotiations with Canada earlier this week over an advert in which former President Ronald Reagan says tariffs "hurt every American". The ad, sponsored by Canada's province of Ontario and released last week, features excerpts of an address Reagan gave in 1987 focusing on foreign trade.
President Donald Trump has canceled trade negotiations with Canada over what he called a “fake” ad that featured parts of an anti-tariff speech delivered by conservative hero and former President Ronald Reagan.
Joe Scarborough said the ad, featuring an April 25, 1987, address from the former president, “reflected Reagan’s feelings about tariffs 100%.”
