Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he privately apologized to U.S. President Donald Trump for a controversial anti-tariff ad that used Ronald Reagan’s speeches. The spot angered Trump, derailed trade talks and prompted a new 10 percent tariff on Canadian exports. Carney told reporters after an Asia-Pacific summit in South Korea that he delivered the apology during a Wednesday dinner. He also said he had urged Ontario Premier Doug Ford not to run the World Series ad, while Ford praised it as effective because it upset Trump.
