Prime Minister Mark Carney called Doug Ford "a couple of times" from Asia to ask him to pull an ad campaign that's being blamed for ending trade talks with the United States, the Ontario premier said Monday.
Carney said this weekend that he told Ford he didn't think the province should run the ad that featured clips of former U.S. president Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about tariffs.
When asked Monday after question period about those remarks, Ford said he did not want to divulge details of their conversations, but indicated he didn't agree with Carney's characterization.
