Their Mother Country Seeks Menace to Canada. Otherwise MODI wouldn't treat Canada like Shit. They laugh at us. Cut them off. Show Modi were not your dumping ground. HOW WILL CHINA, RUSSIA Like it when India in their "Partnership" should ASK For their Indians to go in DROVES to Russia, China.................... HAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO WAY. Canada SHUT IT DOWN. INDIANS dont Respect US. Their home Country conspires and SHOOTS canadian CITIZENS and Then SNUBS US. MAKE YOUR OWN COUNTRY. DO BETTER SCAMMERS!!!!!!!!!!

I stand with Canada. What Musk and Trump are foing is sickening: they started a trade war to destroy Canada’s and Mexico’s smaller economies that would help the Musk-Trump regime to violate Canada’s independence, and annex Canada, take Mexico’s government under control, seize Greenland.\nThe 3 world’s dictators, Russia’s Putin, Musk’s and Trump’s new US, and China’s Xi abandoned any pretense of civility, or respect for international laws and agreements.\nThis is the new world of tule of brute force. I never thought that I would live in this nightmare!

As I understand it all the precursors to Fentanyl come from China. Hey Donald, doesn't your pal Putin have some connections over there?

Trudeau can shove his talk to Americans! We aren’t idiots that he appears to treat Canadians as! \nTrudeau is in the hands of China! It is so obvious he looks completely pathetic! We know that only 1% of shipping containers coming into Canada are screened! Think you might want to check those “Containers” Justin! If there’s one thing that Americans have learned, “Liberals Lie”! They do it constantly! Oh and Justine, that’s “President Trump” to you, you pos! \nAt no time has Trump kissed up to Putin! You have to talk to both Parties when trying for peace! You can’t ignore one side in a war! Trudeau is a corrupt lying creep! Are you still wearing the friendship Bracelets from Brittany Spears Concert?! Soon you will be forgotten among Canadians and the rest of the World!

President trump just did a huge achievement, US president is not any more the leader of the free world, US is not anymore in the free world leadership, broken 100 years of friendship and alliance. \nHuge achievement endeed!!, now US is on the side of Putin, a criminal dictator, who is being supported by China, North Korea and Belorussia.

Trump is isolating his friends of the world like Mexico, China and Canada and kissing Putins arse . People this could lead to some idiot pushing some buttons like that idiot in Korea or Russia . Japan is in danger as well as the Ukraine . The USA used to fight for democracy and now trump wants the Ukraine to surrender to Putin .

Putin and Russia are no longer the huge superpower they were, look at China, Europe and India all with much greater military and economies than Russia yet Trump is appeasing Putin and fighting its friends and in China it's largest trading partner it is just mad.

I believe that Trump & Putin have a plan to dominate the world with Putin taking Europe and Trump taking Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Panana, aka the Americas. What part China & North Korea play in Asia, I don't know. But they look to be inching in this direction!

Let's not forget that the USA has only ever won one war on its own. The American Civil War! WW1 and 2 were a global allied effort, Korea a stalemate, beaten pants down in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan a shambles. Their recent treatment of President Zolenski was utterly shameful. Trump doesn't seem to understand that America will need all the friends that it can muster in the coming decade. The USA will be very alone in a war against China if they have isolated and belittled their strongest and best allies. Vance, should just keep his mouth shut, because every time he opens it he shames America. While every time Trump his mouth, Putin comes out.

Imagine how much Putin and China love Trump after this speech!

Gessus crist how dumb a big outlet like cnn to not put 1 and 1 together, to see who is meant do benefit from this, and not name it\nTrump distroyed cia, pentagon and fbi and any governement that could have checked his traitorous a55 that gave usa on a silver platter to russia AND CHINA \ncause make no mistake, ppl were amazed China was slapped with only 10% while allies were attacked viciously . The rethoric against china will change and will see that the excuse of disingage from Europe(translate let it be Putin's) was supposed to concentrate on bigger fish china.\nLike the boiling of the frog u dumb traditional media were complicit in the transformation of usa in a fascist state! You stopped putting pressure on republicans, gave them leeway to giv in to trump blackmail and intimidation, instead of marking ALL THE LIES HE TELLS ALL THE TIME. \nCNN, FOX ETC . Make no mistake, we saw what u did, when the evil axis will form russia china USA, YOU WILL KNOW YOU DID IT.

Trump is sending the world into a tail spin. Just to say he's Putins friend. America will find a whole new world with Russia and China. I feel for the American public who are watching their life go down the gurgler.....even the ones who think he's doing a good job ...won't take long for the peanut to drop in the hole. We'll spoken Trudeau. We'll done canada ??

Canada and the European states are allies of the USA - not slave-countries.\nTrump - the best man of Putin and China!

if I were you I will side with putin or china asap

This is so stupid. Trump is selling us (America) out to China, Russia and the other BRICs countries. Why else would Trump destroy relationships with our allies? Why else would he kill USAID? China gets to swoop in and be the hero now. I hear Trump is even killing the CHIPS act! Why!!? He's snuggling up to Putin and acting as if Ukraine was the aggressor in that war. Something incredibly fucked up is happening and this is only the beginning.

Trump loves Putin an ex KBJ. He loves communists, Russia , North Korea, China to name but a few.

The Canadian leader is speaking to the American people out of concern. Look at what a whole lot of uninformed folks have done. Once you hear this you will understand the hell we will wake up to. Tariffs to America by China, Mexico, Canada. Making us isolationist joining hand with Putin. Oh my God

God bless PM Trudeau ?\n\nGod bless you, President Zelensky ? \n\nTrump, Shame on you !\nYou abandon Ukraine and Europe just to lick Putin and get some business in Russia !\nYou have no shame ! ! \n\nIsrael, be prepared !\nTrump is Judas !\nSomeday, in the near future,\nrich Arab states will offer Trump\nsome good business, \nsurely Trump will abandon Israel !\nand will take sides with Hamas, Hizballah, Arabs, Iran, Turkey ! !\n\nTaiwan, be prepared !\nTrump is Judas !\nSomeday, in the near future,\nXi Jinping will offer Trump some good business, surely Trump will abandon Taiwan !\nand will take side with China ! !

Only Putin and china can benefit from trumps trade war

he is not going to war with you you dope, it's just a tariff, not even a trade war like he did with China, Trudeau, grow up!!\nhe is not appeasing with Putin, he's not at war with them, he wants to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine, what's da madder with u!?

American here. Trump is an incompetent man! Not only is his trade war with Canada, Mexico, and China breathtakingly stupid, it also raises prices for Americans, costs American factories jobs, and isolates us from our allies. And just today, Trump paused aid/arms to Ukraine. Putin has no incentive to make concessions now, knowing that Trump has cut off arms to Ukraine. Our apologies to your Canada. We are fucked! If you could put a 100% tariff on Tesla, you'd be doing us a HUGE favor.

Canada has known for decades that we have put too many eggs in one basket - selling our resources primarily to the USA. We've had tariffs before and worked with them. Yet we still keep selling to the USA. This time is different. In conjunction with the tariffs, we have an American administration that is flat out insulting Canada. Saying we wouldn't exist economically if it wasn't for the USA. It's at a time when the USA won't promise not to use military force to annex land (Greenland) from a decades old ally. A time when clearly Putin is calling in his chips for whatever he has over Donald Trump. Canadians have had enough. We are directing our governments, provincial and federal, to finally, finally break from the north-south trade links. We need to establish stronger east-west trade links. The resources we have are wanted by many countries if the USA does not want them. It does mean much work within Canada. We need to get our AB-BC pipeline finished as well as the new sea terminal so we can ship our crude oil and natural gas to Japan and if need be, to China. We finally need to get out pipeline to the Atlantic coast finished so we can supply the UK and EU with our products. We need to double our rail capacity for shipping potash, uranium, rare minerals to Asia or Europe. Just as Trump hopes for a golden age of American companies coming home and building new plants in the USA, this will be a golden decade for Canada to create transportation corridors to get our resources to other buyers. America will have to look elsewhere for his raw materials. And we all know what that is - RUSSIA. They've already offered their rare minerals and crude oil. This is all clearly a well thought out scenario from the people working behind Trump to dismiss America's allies and trading partners - have us turn against the USA - as the excuse to open the door to Russian imports into the USA.

So Trudeau calls Putin a liar and a murderous dictator but we all remember a few years ago, the same PM declaring is admiration for China's dictatorship. On a trip in Europe he even downgraded is own people while trying to suck up to the Germans. A few years ago Trudeau said that Canadians didn't really have an identity and announced that he wished to make Canada the first post national country in history. I'm sorry guys, I do not like the tariffs but I just cannot stand this guy!

Thanks to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's leadership, speaking clearly in whole sentences, calling out DJT lies, untruths & fallacies while outlining & correcting w' facts & truths... DJT utilizes deceptiveness to gaslight Americans increasingly less effectively... More Americans are opening their eyes & ears... unfortunately some not... Hopefully soon.\n>> Trudeau calls out Trump aligning America w. PUTIN--Russia, a Dictator, thug & murderer, and displacing historical allies & friends..\n>> Fentanyl is manufactured in China; shipped in bulk to Mexican Cartels, etc, to prep for the American Markets--Why hasn't Trump stopped it now he's in charge of the borders. \nRECALL SYCOPHANTS from Congress--Replace w' patriots to impeach Trump-Vance & prosecute them w/ Musk, DOGE & all who are violating our laws accessing & deconstructing our Govt.

First and foremost let’s be reminded that Trump is doing this for Putin in retaliation to what the Biden administration did to Russia with the sanctions for invading Ukraine. Secondly, Trump wants to be King. By weakening our economy and putting millions of people at risk and ruining their lives, he hopes a civil war can be started so that Russia, North Korea and possibly China can attack us while at war with each other and the Federal Government.

Why this nato leader quack just try and blame Russia and china for American tariffs on Canada this news channel is talking about tariffs and for some reason the topic of fearmongering Russia and china \nMr nato leader quack everyone who is well informed on what Putin and Russia want you clearly don’t so educate yourself

Americans are owned by their new King Vladimir Putin now. And China. This is all to help China and Russia. \nWhen will CNN even fkn MENTION \nTHE 200-500 THOUSAND INDIVIDUAL MILITARY GRADE WEAPONS US MANUFACTURERS SELL TO DRUG CARTELS EVERY YEAR ? \nYOUR CORRUPT OFFICIALS TAKING PART I. TRAFFICKING THE DRUGS. DID YOU EVEN REPORT THE ALABAMA CASE OF THE 5 cops and a spouse. Including the CHIEF OF POLICE Using the Evidence room as their drug supply ??\nHUH. ?\n\nCNN ????????

There is one winner in the trade war between the US and Canada, the EU, China, Mexico...his name is Vladimir Putin

What times we live in :D America becoming ally with Russia which leader putin is nothing else like Stalin or other soviet leaders. And America is becoming enemy not only with Europe but also with closest ally Canada :D What the hell is going on? China celebrating now. USA had veroius presidents good ones, bad ones, smart ones and dumb ones, but this one is no doubt the worst and dumbest one ever.

Looking in from the UK Trump has just gone 100% rogue for the west and 100% for Russia. By splitting USA V Canada V Mexico trade which he signed of in his first term he has now supplied Russia with the split they wanted. USA power has always been the number of allies it has around the world now it is splitting from them and joining Putin which makes Putin very happy. America is weaker and that is just dandy for Russia China Iran and North Korea President Che will be moving forward with his plan to attack Taiwan and then watch America as it has no computer chips for all the industries tied to super computers cars planes ect.

Let’s get this clear - This is not about hurting Canada with Tariff. This is all part of Trump’s plan to create panic, confusion and frustration to the American people to make us weak so he can sell us to PUTIN. The tariff to Canada, Mexico and China; his immigration racist decisions to target Latinos; the way he and Vance attacked to president Zaleski and firing federal employes is just ALL Part of a plan to create confusion, so while we scratch our head, he allied with PUTIN.

In Zelnskey disastrous white meeting, Trump echoed Russian propaganda by saying ww3. Well, Trump's actions may very well lead to that. If you were China, you'd move on Tiawan. Putin could expand his war in Europe against Nato. Disastrous policies.

All those secret phone calls Trump has had with Putin. What the heck have they been talking about? I think they’ve come up with a plan to divide the world between three empires - an American empire, a Russian empire, and a Chinese empire. Trump gave it away when he accused Zelenskyy of potentially starting WW3 if he doesn’t give Russia what it wants. \n\nWe’ve already had several threats from Putin that he’d use nuclear weapons to protect Russia if other countries ally with Ukraine and send their own military to assist Ukrainians. Trump once again proves he’s a Russian asset as he parrots Putin’s threats. \n\nAlso, prepare yourself for the China-Taiwan war. Putin and Trump will stand down their navies.

Trump is not a smart man. And he’s on the side of Putin, North Korea and China.\nHe’s pure evil

Remember when this same fellow froze protesters bank accounts and began collecting peoples weapons? Yet, he has the gull to talk about dictators. Trump actually wants to avoid WWIII and I hope what his administration does will bring an end to the war. Though, I do agree he should be more tough on Putin. That being said, I do agree that the crossings from Canada are not nearly as significant as compared to our southern border. It would be nice to see more from Canada in their investments to secure the border and stop crossings, cartel movements, and drug operations. The US has spent more than 409 billion since 2003 on such operations. Regardless, I feel for you Canadians and it sucks that it has come to this and I hope we keep strong relations in the future. Hopefully we can come to a fair deal soon. Mexico and China are the big players that do not do nearly enough to prevent these crimes. In fact, the Mexican government helps the cartels by not trying to stop them. China's lack of regulation on the ingredients to make fentanyl contribute to a large extent to this tragedy as well.

We are all living in strange times! The bad guy (Putin) is defended like he’s the good guy and the victim (Zelensky) is criticized like he’s the aggressor. This is so weird and negative like an episode of the Twighlight Zone! I think I can understand how Trump is viewing things. Bill O’Reilly seems to know how Trump thinks. Nevertheless, things are upside down! USA voting at the UN with North Korea and Putin and Belarus and against the EU and UK and NATO alliance nations … against the victim Ukraine? This is unheard of! Yet this is so ironic because Leonid Brezhnev, who was the USSR leader, when Russia invaded the sovereign nation of Afghanistan, and Vladimir Putin was a young KGB agent at that time, working for Brezhnev, is now in his position as leader, and he invaded Brezhnev’s sovereign homeland of Ukraine. Brezhnev must be weeping from hell and regretting his invasion of Afghanistan! Crying from hell, seeing his servant, Putin, in his seat of authority, and invading his homeland like he did to Afghanistan, I’m sure Brezhnev regrets but it’s too late now. He’s burning in hell and he can’t get out of hell! \n\nThe bad deal that Clinton and Yeltson and John Major dealt to Ukraine in the 1990s when they moved all of her nuclear weapons to Russia was like declawing the Ukrainian cat and now the cat can’t defend herself against aggressors because she has no claws to defend herself from aggressive attackers!\n\nCanada and Mexico are our friends not our enemies! China and North Korea still idolize the USSR/CCCP flag and Soviet Union hammer and sickle. Putin is a thug and gangster like Joseph Stalin. Everyone forgot what happened to Alexander Litvinenko except for those like John Bolton. \n\nWe are all living in perilous times! The wrongdoer (Putin) is called good and the victim (Zelensky) is called bad! This is so negatively bizarre and wrong! Isaiah 5:20 warns against this! Putin is not pure evil but he’s definitely not a good guy! He’s a gangster and thug like Al Capone! I think President Trump is walking on a tight rope by trying to make a good deal with Putin. And that tight rope spans from one high rise building to another - the senate and house chambers of the US legislature. The midterms are coming soon and if President Trump loses the house and senate, that tight rope could snap! And all those shock and awe executive orders etc. could come back to haunt him like a boomerang thumping his head.\n\nNever in my wildest imagination would I ever imagine Canadians harboring bad feelings towards the USA! This is 180 degrees opposite of how things were when Ronald Reagan and Brian Mulroney were in the political arena!

Donald Trump knows that his trade war with Canada, Mexico and China will damage America’s economy. That is why he is doing it. He is purposely hurting the American economy in order to help Putin. How is that every American can’t see that Trump is a Russian asset? He is doing everything that he can to unstable the American government. The writing is on the wall America. Wake up!

The Russian asset = Trump. Putin wishes to weaken the US, and Trump follows his orders! China and Russia are so happy!

No winners in a trade war except Putin and China.

Putin, China, North Korea, Iran are watching this war that T*** started and enjoying it! while Americans and allies suffering.

Putin and China now: *eating popcorn and enjoying the show*

Trump loves dictatorships and has had their strategy explained to him personally by the three most successful ones (Putin, North Korea and China): \n1. Take over a party and make it compliant \n2. Get the media representatives with the highest reach on your side \n3. Start fights with your neighbors \n4. Drive your population into poverty \n5 Throw toilet paper into the crowds begging for help \n6. Receive their praises and you'll never have to be afraid of being re-elected again.

This situation is unbelievable. Russia has been threatening to devastate Germany, and meanwhile, we find ourselves in conflict with Canada, a country that has always been a great friend and neighbor. Putin is simply waiting for the U.S. to withdraw from NATO, and he won’t hesitate to act once that happens. China will likely invade Taiwan amidst all this turmoil. Our entire government, regardless of political party, has failed the American people. Stocks are plummeting this morning, and energy costs are rising. How does any of this benefit anyone?

I believe that the ultimate wet dream of Trump is to have a bigger nation ie. performing hostile takeovers of neighboring countries and of strategic importance for him (Greenland, Canada, Panama Canal and others). For that to function, he has agreed with his best buddy Putin to allow him his share of the Europian countries. China will probable be on the same hostile takeover trip all over the pacific as well. He and Putin think that they will loose out against China otherwise. What the poor man doesn't realise is that the community of the UN were and are the best deterence against China. His willingness to break that up will actually lead to a very big world dominating conflict. The clear thinking US politicians need to act quickly before more damage is done to the American people and country. He is on the path of destroying vital friendships to pay for his sick qunon infested mind...(eating cats and dogs....say no more)

How can the msm and their guests say they don't understand why he's doing this? If you look at every thing Trump does thru the lense of pleasing Putin and putting Rudssia and China's agenda first, it all makes sense. It's time to start calling this what it is. A traitorous president is selling out his own country and countrymen. He needs to he stopped bamn before its too late. This is not Amerixa first, it's America last.

putin & donnie plan to coordinate a takeover starting with the US (which donnie has already initiated). Thank you PM Trudeau - you and others please keep standing up to him because our own representatives are cowards who choose power, prestige, privilege and profits over their constituents. donnie has already bowed down to putin. donnie has missed the fact that fentanyl is smuggled in via container ships from china along with mailed packages and trucks from Mexico. Agents can inspect at the borders until the cows come home but smugglers will always come up with new ways to hide contraband. Oh yeah, donnie is NOT a “very smart guy”. The WSJ is wrong on that point. Don’t feed his ego.\nStay strong Canada ❤

no Critical minerals from Canada, China and now also not from the Ukraine.. good luck america! rest of the world comes together as America isolates itself aligning with Putin!

This idiotic game by the Trump-Vance gang only makes sense if they are in fact (hidden behind the pseudo-nationalist MAGA nonsense) working for Putin. And if they want to destroy our Western democracies, also in the interests of Putin. And China is the laughing third party.

I’m sure that mr Putin and mr Xi had never dreamed what mr trump is doing in these few days. He is throwing away 80 years of soft power and is unrolling a wonderful red carpet for China ambitions. Please wake up me, i’m sure this is a nightmare.

Canadians! As an European I'm happy that -despite everything happening atm- we find ways to increase cooperation, cherish virtues like democractic ruling, honesty, empathy. Let's strengthen our bound and leave the (this) USA to Putin and China.
