Donald Trump makes announcement in response to anti-tariff ad sponsored by Ontario government. Key US politics stories from Saturday 25 October at a glance
Donald Trump<\/a> announced on Saturday that he will raise US tariffs on Canada by 10% in retaliation for an anti-tariff advertisement<\/a> sponsored by the Ontario government, which has further strained one of the world\u2019s largest trade partnerships.
The statement, posted on Trump\u2019s Truth Social account, came after several days of public disputes over the ad, which referenced Ronald Reagan\u2019s support for free trade and provoked the US president\u2019s anger.
Trump and Canadian prime minister Mark Carney will both attend the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) summit in Malaysia on Sunday, but Trump told reporters traveling with him that he had no intention of meeting Carney there.
Ontario premier Doug Ford on Friday said the province would suspend its US ad campaign on Monday, after discussions with prime minister Mark Carney, in an effort to reopen trade negotiations.
The ad, which was paid for by the government of the Canadian province of Ontario, uses excerpts of a 1987 speech where Reagan says \u201ctrade barriers hurt every American worker\u201d.

Robert F Kennedy Jr, the health and human services (HHS) secretary, is planning to issue guidance encouraging Americans to eat more saturated fats, contradicting decades of dietary recommendations and alarming experts.
Kennedy has indicated that new dietary guidelines will \u201cstress the need to eat saturated fats of dairy, of good meat, of fresh meat and vegetables \u2026 When we release those, it will give everybody the rationale for driving it into our schools,\u201d according to recent reporting in the Hill.
Ronald Krauss, a professor of paediatrics and medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, who has researched saturated fats extensively, found that saturated fats may be less harmful than previously thought, but said if \u201c[Kennedy] is actually going to go out and say we should be eating more saturated fat, I think that\u2019s really the wrong message\u201d.

Donald Trump\u2019s standing with Hispanic adults has dropped notably since he took office at the start of the year, according to a new poll.
Polling by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows that 25% of Hispanic adults now hold a \u201csomewhat\u201d or \u201cvery\u201d favorable view of Trump, down sharply from 44% in an AP-NORC poll conducted just before he began his second term.
Hispanic adults also expressed less confidence in Trump\u2019s management of the economy and immigration, two key issues that once bolstered his support during last year\u2019s campaign. Overall approval of his job performance has also fallen, with 41% approving of Trump\u2019s handling of the presidency in March, compared with just 27% this month.
Hispanic voters played a crucial role in helping Trump win the presidency for the second time; nearly half of Hispanic voters backed him in 2024.
