Doug Ford Trolls Trump with Reagan, Trades Tariffs Like Baseball Cards

Ontario Premier Doug Ford upgraded his dodgeball skills by slapping a vintage 1987 Ronald Reagan ad right into the World Series between Toronto and LA–because what says "trade war" like old Hollywood Reagan shade live on baseball TV? After Trump canceled all trade talks with Canada on Truth Social Thursday, Ford announced the ad would mercifully retire Monday, but not before prime-time troll airing Friday and Saturday. Meanwhile, Trump doubled tariffs Saturday, casually turning Canada-U.S. relations into 'Lumbergate 2025,' with tariffs dancing at 25%, 35%, and a hilarious 50% steel-and-aluminum high-five. Amid autocratic tweetstorms and baseball strikes, Canada plots to romance India and China, because when the USA closes doors, Canada swipes right elsewhere.
