Speaking to reporters at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in South Korea on Saturday, Carney said he had already apologized to the U.S. president for the anti-tariff campaign.
The ad had used clips from a 1987 radio address by then-President Reagan, in which he said tariffs hurt the American economy.
