I’ve seen lots of posts about the ad, but not the ad itself. Here it is.

    I don’t know why Trump is whining; that ad was heard by millions of U.S. citizens years ago. Today it’s only an expensive rerun but on by the Ontario government. What’s the problem?

          The money goes to US corporations, the only saving grace it has was stopping trade talks but that wasn’t the intent.

          The government literally owns their own connunciation platforms. They can dissiminate the information they want for free.

          Why give money to a US corporation?

            TVO I mean… Yes? I’m guessing it played on there but almost no one watches it. Are you talking about CBC?

              The state literally can just put any message anywhere in any city. It’s the State. They can nationalize any company and use their physical and digital infrastructure to send information to their citizens.

        It’s about trying to get Americans to put pressure on their politicans to open the trade border. It seems to be working.
