The leader of Canada’s most populous province posted remarks by former U.S. President Ronald Reagan on social media on Friday showing Reagan opposed tariffs, hours after President Donald Trump announced he’s ending “all trade negotiations” with Canada because of a television ad that Trump said mis-states Reagan’s opposition to tariffs. Ontario Premier Doug Ford didn’t back down and says Canada and the U.S. are friends, neighbors and allies and Reagan knew that both are stronger together. Trump doubled down on his criticism of the Ontario ads again on Friday and accused Canada of trying to influence an upcoming U.S. Supreme Court ruling on his global tariff regime.
