President Trump on Saturday imposed a 10 percent tariff on Canada, adding to the country’s existing tariff rates. This action followed the airing of an advertisement lobbying against tariffs during the World Series.
The Canadian advertisement, which reportedly angered the president, features excerpts from a 1987 speech by former President Ronald Reagan. In the footage, Reagan discusses the importance of “free and fair trade,” emphasizing principles that resonate with current trade debates.
The new tariff marks a significant escalation in trade tensions between the United States and Canada, highlighting ongoing disputes over tariffs and trade policies.
