Trump raises tariffs on Canadian goods in response to Reagan advert

US President Donald Trump has said he is increasing tariffs on goods imported from Canada after the province of Ontario aired an anti-tariff advertisement featuring former President Ronald Reagan, BBC reported.

In a post on social media on Saturday, Trump called the advert a "fraud" and lashed out at Canadian officials for not removing it ahead of the World Series baseball championship. 

"Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now," he wrote.

After Trump on Thursday withdrew from trade talks with Canada, the Ontario premier said he would take down the advert, according to BBC.
