Trump Low-Key Cancels Canada Trade Talks Over Some sus Ads 🇨🇦 ❌ 🙅‍♂️

The Tea 🍵

Y'all, get this. The Big Cheeto himself, President Trump, just yeeted all trade negotiations with Canada into the trash. The reason? Some savage ad the Ontario government dropped, featuring snippets from a 1987 speech by Ronald Reagan where he's dragging tariffs. Like, ouch.

Apparently, Trump thinks the ad was shady AF and timed to mess with an upcoming Supreme Court case about his foreign economic policy. He's basically saying Canada was playing games. 🙄

Now, let's be real, Canada and the U.S. are kinda BFFs when it comes to trade. We're talking over $900 billion in goods and services last year. So, this is kinda a big deal. The Canadian dollar even took a lil' dip after the news dropped.

But wait, there's more! Ontario Premier Doug Ford clapped back, saying Canada and the U.S. are still friends and allies, shouting out Reagan's belief in that. The Ronald Reagan Foundation low-key called cap on the ad misrepresenting Reagan's OG 1987 take. But the Reagan Foundation said the ad didn't lie--Reagan was anti-tariffs, fr fr.

Trump straight up claimed Canada was "fraudulently" using the advertisement and accused them of cheating on tariffs. Wild.

Prime Minister Mark Carney and his squad have been in the DMs with the Trump administration, trying to finesse deals on specific sectors, but it looks like things just got 100% more complicated. And BTW, Trump's pulled this move before, threatening to bounce from trade talks with Canada over their Digital Services Tax. So, who knows what's gonna happen when they see each other at those upcoming summits? 😬
