Following President-elect Donald Trump’s threat to impose a 25 percent tariff on Canadian goods, Ontario Premier Doug Ford told reporters in Mississauga on Nov. 28 he still intends to “take the positive approach” to Canada–U.S. relations.

Ford followed up his comments by unveiling a new ad campaign on Dec. 2 that emphasizes mutual cooperation. “For generations this ally to the north has been by your side,” the ad says.
