Trump attacked the ad on Truth Social Friday posting: “CANADA CHEATED AND GOT CAUGHT!!! They fraudulently took a big buy ad saying that Ronald Reagan did not like Tariffs, when actually he LOVED TARIFFS FOR OUR COUNTRY, AND ITS NATIONAL SECURITY.″

Ontario Premier Doug Ford pauses $56M anti-tariff ad featuring Reagan after Trump suspends Canada trade talks.

President Donald Trump has canceled trade negotiations with Canada over what he called a “fake” ad that featured parts of an anti-tariff speech delivered by conservative hero and former President Ronald Reagan.

The Ronald Reagan ad that riled President Donald Trump to the point of terminating trade talks with Canada is coming down — after it gets a few more plays during the World Series.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford appeared to stand by a television ad that angered Donald Trump and prompted the US president to call a halt to trade talks with Canada.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford said he will pause the ad on Monday "so that trade talks can resume."

Overall, the ad’s message aligns with most of Reagan’s remarks, which, over five minutes, expressed a dim view of tariffs

Quoting President Ronald Reagan was a way for Ontario to say that it’s not alone in opposing the kinds of tariffs that President Trump has imposed.
