Attack Ads Pressure Trudeau and Biden for Border Opening
May 28, 2021 ctn_admin
CTV – One concerned citizen is using American-style political attack ads to pressure Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and U.S. President Joe Biden to reopen the border to fully vaccinated Americans.
The ad has already aired in several U.S. border markets, including the Niagara region, Buffalo, Detroit and Washington State, but is set to air in the Toronto and Ottawa markets next week.
“President Biden, Prime Minister Trudeau, my fiancee and I are separated by your closed border,” a woman says in the commercial. “It’s just policy to you, but it’s a prison to us.”
There was a report on Thursday that the U.S. is planning to open the border on June 22, but the story was played down by the White House. Trudeau said there’s “eagerness” to restore normalcy on both sides of the border.
