The ad, sponsored by Canada's province of Ontario and released last week, features excerpts of an address Reagan gave in 1987 focusing on foreign trade.

Trump called the advert "FAKE" while The Ronald Reagan Foundation said it "misrepresents" the former president's address.

While the minute-long advert only includes excerpts from the original, five-minute-long address, it does not alter Reagan's words. It does however alter the order in which he made the comments.

Below are the lines from the advert in italics, followed by an explanation of how they appear (indicated in bold) in the original address.
