The White House posted an image on X targeting former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after the United States beat Canada in overtime to win the men’s ice hockey gold medal at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, the first U.S. men’s Olympic hockey title since 1980. The win came days after the U.S. women also defeated Canada in overtime to take gold.
President Donald Trump said late Oct. 23, 2025, that he was terminating all U.S.-Canada trade negotiations after Ontario aired a television ad using Ronald Reagan’s 1987 remarks on tariffs, which Trump called “fake.” Ontario Premier Doug Ford later said the province would pause the campaign after this weekend to help restart talks.
