Doug Ford’s $75 Million Anti-Trump Ad Backfires
Doug Ford’s PC government just made an international embarrassment, and as usual, Ontarians are footing the bill.
Late Friday night, U.S. President Donald Trump announced he was ending all trade negotiations with Canada in direct response to Doug Ford’s $75 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign running across the United States.
Earlier that night, the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute confirmed the Ford PC government misused and edited a historic Reagan address without permission.
Instead of stopping the ad immediately, the Ford PCs insisted that it continue airing over the weekend in the U.S. during the World Series. As a result, President Trump declared the U.S. would increase tariffs on Canadian goods by 10%.
Ford’s phoney “Captain Canada” stunt has provoked a halt in negotiations, triggered new tariffs, and is costing Ontario businesses even more.
While Ontario families struggle with record-high taxes and hydro rates, Ford thought it was wise to waste $75 million on an ad that’s already backfired and is now off the air.
This is what happens when a weasel tries to play cowboy.
Every time Ford opens his mouth—and Ontarians’ wallets—we pay for it.
Ontario needs leadership focused on Ontario, not on the U.S. courts or changing the minds of American voters.
The New Blue Party is committed to ending the PCs’ multibillion-dollar corporate welfare programs, reducing hydro rates by dismantling costly and ineffective “green” energy schemes, and cutting taxes across Ontario.
