Manitoba Premier Backs Ontario's Reagan Tariff Ads Despite Criticism
Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew has expressed support for Ontario's controversial tariff ad campaign featuring former US President Ronald Reagan. Kinew believes the ads accurately reflect Reagan's views on tariffs, despite criticism from The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & Institute.
The TV advertisement, produced by the Ontario government, quotes Reagan saying, 'Tariffs are a tax on Americans... They punish you for buying American.' Kinew agrees with this sentiment, stating that Trump's recent tariffs contradict Reagan's legacy.
Kinew has encouraged Ontario Premier Doug Ford to continue the ad campaign, arguing that it effectively communicates the negative impacts of tariffs on consumers and businesses. He believes the campaign is a powerful tool to raise awareness about the issue.
Despite the criticism, Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew stands by Ontario's tariff ad campaign, asserting that it accurately represents Ronald Reagan's views on the matter. He urges Ontario to continue the campaign, seeing it as a valuable tool to educate the public on the impacts of tariffs.
