Ontario Premier Doug Ford Slams Trump's Trade Policy, Invokes Reagan
Ontario Premier Doug Ford criticized President Donald Trump's trade policy toward Canada, suggesting Ronald Reagan would be "throwing up" over the situation. Ford made the remarks amid collapsed U.S.-Canada trade negotiations announced over the weekend. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said the talks failed due to unreasonable U.S. demands, prompting Canada to reconsider its relationship with Washington. Ford vowed Canada would target Republican-led states in an economic response, saying "we're gonna hit hard." Trump responded on Truth Social, calling Ford's comments "bluster" and threatening consequences. The dispute follows months of Trump's annexation threats against Canada. Vice President J.D. Vance and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy also made controversial remarks about Canada.
