Trump adds 10% import tax on Canada for not pulling anti-tariff ad sooner

President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he plans to hike tariffs on imports of Canadian goods by an extra 10 per cent because of an anti-tariff television ad aired by the province of Ontario. 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. Their Advertisement was to be taken down, IMMEDIATELY, but they let it run last night during the World Series, knowing that it was a FRAUD, Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform as he flew aboard Air Force One to Malaysia. "Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now.

Canada aims to double non-US exports in a decade amid Trump tariff impact

Prime Minister Mark Carney set a goal for Canada to double its non-US exports in the next decade, saying American tariffs are causing a chill in investment. Carney, who will release his government's budget on Nov 4, said Wednesday many of Canada's former strengths based on close ties to America have become vulnerabilities. The jobs of workers in our industries most affected by US tariffs autos, steel, lumber are under threat. Our businesses are holding back investments, restrained by the pall of uncertainty that is hanging over all of us, Carney said.
