The Hard Shoulder
A certain advert in Ontario has caused US President Donald Trump to end trade talks with Canada.
Mark Carney, the Prime Minister, is trying to strike a deal to ease US tariffs, but Ontario premier Doug Ford has been behind this new advert, which uses excerpts of a national radio address from former US President Ronald Reagan in 1987.
Was Trump justified? Or might he be thin-skinned? What do you think?
Joining Ciara Doherty to discuss is Brian Lilley, Chief political columnist for the Toronto Sun.
