Trump threatens Canada with 10% extra import tax for not pulling down anti-tariffs ad sooner
The ad used the words of former President Ronald Reagan to criticize U.S. tariffs, angering Trump, who said he would end trade talks with Canada. Ontario Premier Doug Ford said he would pull the ad after the weekend, and it ran Friday night during the first game of the World Series.
President Donald Trump said he's terminating trade negotiations with Canada citing a negative TV advertisement about tariffs.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday he was increasing tariffs on Canada by an additional 10 percent “above what they’re paying now,” as he reacted again to an ad by Canada’s Ontario province, a day after it was aired during the World Series broadcast.

General Motors Co. and Stellantis NV will be forced to pay tariffs on some US-made vehicles they import for sale in Canada, after the companies decided to reduce assembly-line work at factories in Ontario.
Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy says the fiscal update will be a plan to make the province's economy competitive and protect jobs.
