Trump threatens Canada with 10% extra import tax for not pulling down anti-tariffs ad sooner
President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he plans to hike tariffs on imports of Canadian goods by an extra 10% because of an anti-tariff television ad aired by the province of Ontario. The ad used the words of former President Ronald Reagan to criticize U.
The one-minute ad included some of Reagan’s remarks out of chronological order and omitted that Reagan recorded the address after imposing duties on some Japanese products. However, the ad’s overall message doesn’t misrepresent Reagan’s views on tariffs.
