Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he apologized to President Trump over an antitariff television ad that had angered Trump and sent the two countries’ trade talks into a tailspin.

Carney made the apology earlier this week during a dinner in South Korea for Asia-Pacific leaders, he told reporters Saturday at a news conference. Trump had been offended by the advertisement, Carney said, which was sponsored by the Ontario government and included audio of former President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs.
