Trump says plan to impose 10 pct extra tariffs on Canada over ad controversy

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he plans to increase tariffs on goods from Canada by an extra 10 percent because of an anti-tariff TV advertisement. The ad, aired by the Canadian province of Ontario, featured former President Ronald Reagan criticizing U.S. tariffs.

Trump accused it of misleading and threatened on Thursday to end trade talks with Canada. Ontario Premier Doug Ford said he would pause the ad, broadcast during the first game of the World Series on Friday night, after the weekend, according to media reports.
