GTA Councillors Launch Anti-Tariff Ads Targeting D.C. During Trump’s Inauguration & Super Bowl

Brampton Councillor Rowena Santos and Whitby Councillor Chris Leahy are fighting Trump’s proposed 25% tariffs with a Washington, D.C.-focused digital ad campaign, debuting during the January 20 inauguration. The campaign highlights potential job losses and economic harm to Canadian cities like Brampton and Whitby, urging U.S. officials to reconsider. While some experts question the strategy’s effectiveness, the councillors plan to extend their efforts to events like the Super Bowl. They remain steadfast in protecting Canadian jobs and advocating for cross-border economic fairness.
