Trump Terminates Canada Trade Talks Over Reagan Advertisement Controversy

President Trump has ended all trade negotiations with Canada following an Ontario government advertisement that used a 1987 Ronald Reagan speech criticizing tariffs.

The move halts weeks of progress on steel and aluminium discussions that followed Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s recent White House visit. Ottawa has yet to comment on the suspension of talks.
