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.
