I get what they're saying but I think the "Paid for by the government of canada" might be misinterpreted...

I know it took me half a second. Adding "poster" in front, or something would make in unambiguous.

"the only thing the government of Canada is paying for is this ad"

Yeah, I'm all for proper attribution, but I think making it just a little smaller, or two lines so it doesn't line up with the main message, could have made it more clear that it wasn't part of the message.

I think it is part of the message, Canada was pushing back against the tariffs USA was imposing.
