trudeau has already glamorously screwed canada they are in the same position if not a worse one than us

Make no mistake this liberal dictatorship Wants these tariffs. Who collects all of the money on the US goods that do Get bought up in Canada. Trudeau and his cronies are salivating at all the money that they’re gonna have coming in And he couldn’t give a crap about the average Canadian

Dear PM Trudeau. We Americans understand how and why you are doing what you are doing due to the stupid decisions of our dictator musk/trump. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico and the EU. God bless all of us as we deal with the aftermath of trump/musks BS decisions.

We lived in Canada for 15 years and we heard a lot how Canada hated us. The facts are Port of Vancouver is mega drug port. Just go to East Hastings

I'm canadian and trudolf is a piece of ?.The corrupt liberals have destroyed Canada not trumps tariffs. If the tariffs are not bad enough this corrupt liberal reciprocal tariffs are going to destroy us even more. This piece of garbage froze our bank accounts when we peacefully protested against his tyranny. Don't be fooled by this dictator. This is exactly what he wants it plays into the corrupt liberal agenda to make the people more dependent on the government. Trudolf is a lying piece of ?

As an American, I've been trying to work out in Alberta as a Pipe Insulator for over five years with no response, but you guys let in other foreign nations. How about you give the people in the US citizenship if we are seeking refuge. I want out of this crappy over priced country more than you know, and all of my Canadian friends have way more respect, values and integrity that the people in the 40's 50's 60..etc used to have in this country. We love you Canada!

Sorry as a American this is our life's at risk .keep your proud stance.proud stance for Canada.We are in tears losing our great country to criminals God Bless Canada we our scared stressed for our social security, health care and our anger at the thugs taking away our relationship our fear to keep breathing and enjoy our past relationships Thankyou for your love to all people God is good God help us !????????

Canada's economy really means nothing to the US but why are we punishing Canada, our closest ally

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

There ARE winners in a trade war. Many Americans want literally nothing to do with Canada after the booing of our national anthem. Not our President, but our anthem. Some will never forgive. We will endure without Canada, say hi to Xi for us.

If Canada has more pipelines to the west coast to market our oil and gas to Asia, then Trump cannot bully us.\nWe are this predicament because of the Liberal policy. I will vote for PP come this election. Carney is weak.

Mr. Prime Minister. The people of the United States love Canada we would do anything to help stop this. You are our closest✌️ friend and ally for years and years please don’t hold it against us because we have an idiot in the White House. God bless.

I just moved from my California home state for the second, but just to let you know Canada i'm with you!! This trade war with these countries, are ridiculous but only to line, and continue to line the pockets of billionaires like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and the tech family..... Trump has tried to stay close to Putin, but no one asks why?? We're not at war with Russia? He's been wanting the wealth Putn has every since he, and his wife visited in 1983.. He loves their minerals, and i ask President Zenlensky, if he signs that mineral agreement be careful how it's worded!!! J D Vance had know right to speak to Zelensky in that manner!! Trump, needed an education in government before he ran for any office, it's laws, etc... he's embarrassing when he speaks, calling other government officers stupid, and the like, like a child in school!! Why doesn't someone fact check Donald Trump vs Joe Biden with the things he's done vs the things Donald did while in office, as Biden knowing the law vs Trump as what he could do as a US President, not running this country like he runs his business!! I'm Georgia now, and still wouldn't voted for that man....!!!

US gets 50% of Canada's natural gas production and $100B+ of crude oil from Canada - all US consumers will be stuck with the price increases... don't matter if you are red or blue.

As a Canadian living in the US with my family, when the going gets TOUGH, my Prime Minister, Mr. Trudeau, we are coming back home (CANADA).??‍♀️

Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to the world. How will this end? Not well. Canada, most of us in the USA are so ashamed of Trump and his harm to others. Canada, thank you for not bowing to Trump.

Stop calling it fentinal and call it what it is DRUGS . When are we going to start hitting them back about all the drugs coming into Canada not to mention all the guns that are so easily obtained in the states which are illegal here. Also put import taxes on imported goods from the US. This tax to be paid by the seller make it income for Canada and not an expense.

Yeah, what he wants is that Canada becomes the 51 state of and then once it becomes the 51 state Canada no longer will be making decision in anything and then everything that the Canada has worked or owns will be his for his own purpose haha. What does he thinks that Canada are bunch of idiots? well lets see. they will be like Puerto Rico with no right to do anything and like he told the Governor of the state of maine, you better comply or you get nothing from us because I am the federal government haha.

How much have you increased inspecting foreign cargo to check for illegal substances?\nThere are still migrants flying into Canada and walking across the border being picked up by the bus load transporting them to sanctuary cities like New York. What are you doing to prevent migrants use your country as a stopping point to walk into the US?\nYou need to do more. Look what Mexico has done.

An American here. Remember that his approval rating is in the low 30s.\n\nMost of us are with you, Canada. It's going get rough but stand tall and remain brave while we deal with this wannabe dictator. \n\n#FtrumpandFhispuppetmasterPutin

No, he didn't, you are a lier. Trump is trying to find peace, Canada has been ripping of the US for decades. Now, when the US tries to put a stop to it, you get butt hurt. Canada should have played nice.

We need help ridding us of the Orange Buffoon in the White House. Most of us side with Canada now and are embarrassed by the truly ignorant ass named trump

We need the help from our friends to speak the Truth, clear and loud. Thank you PM Trudeau. The only winner here is Putin. He gets to pit our Allies against us while destroying Russa's biggest adversary (or we were). This is insane, idiotic and hopefully my fellow Americans will wake up and turn this around before it takes hold. Congress needs to do their job and stop the Executive Orders we are not an authoritarian nation (yet). Stand with Mexico, Canada, Ukrain and the rest of the Free Democratic world.

This is a move Trump himself didn't even want to take. He was forced to do so by the American energy sector. Trump wants america to become completely free of any foreign dependence. The only thing Canada has that the United States depends on is their energy for the Northern US. Trump has slashed regulations and opened land for American companies to start drilling and providing their own energy to the US. They decided against it for record profits. This will for e them to start drilling in the US by making it cheaper than getting energy from Canada. This has nothing to do with Russia. If it did, the US could get all the cheap oil and natural gas as he wants. Putin would give it to the US for free. Trump could careless about Russia or Putin. He wants american energy companys to start doing their jobs and provide energy to the american people at a reasonable cost. But all they are worried about is their record profits.

Do you believe this Canadian?? \nHe's all pissed off because he has to pay tariffs on his goods . \nThese countries are so used to getting away with murder, now that Trump put a stop to it , and they have to pay their tariffs, Trump is the bad guy ! \n\nAmerica pays tariffs when we export our goods, do you see us complain?? ...The nerve on this guy ! \nMake canada America 51 st state! \nIt's a good deal ! ????

The bad part is, the Ukraine, Mexico, and Canada think that WE ALL side with the behaviors of a president of the USA and treat us ALL like we are in support\n\n\n\nONLY MAGA white supremacists are raising pitchforks and making lunch mobs against any non white, or non American

Canada is my home. I was born here. Canada will pull together. We will survive this and we will make other trade partners as we go on. The world pretty much stands with us and I thank all of you who are doing all you can to stand behind Canada.\nI don't care which country you come from. If you stand with Canada and are a friend of Canada then you are a friend of mine.\nAn enemy of my enemy is my friend. May God bless you all.

They have been putting our corporations out of business that compete with them here by giving those Canada companies subsidies so they can sell their materials cheaper than ours. It’s really crazy how people were so happy to pay more money for everything when Biden’s people manipulated us to think it was important to support Ukraine’s war and that was why prices were going up. Now, no one wants to support businesses coming to the US. \nThere are way worse things than prices going up for a few years. We do need to start chipping away at that $36trillion. We are the 1st country to not go belly up with the GDP ratio to debt as high as ours. Economists that aren’t connected to our government and top CEO’s said last year that it didn’t matter who was president, our dollar will reset and our economy will crash. So, somebody has to do something. Trump and his people has to think outside the box to stop it. Especially if interest rates don’t go down, because if we can’t pay the interest and our corporations can’t either, the crash will happen.

No you believe in us protecting you for free for forever. And it’s over. You are crippling yourselves Canada. And again, you must have a team of moderators that crowd source opinions and use mine often to prepare you for your next speech. I am but one intelligent Hoosier calling these moves… you really will be losing seafood here next ;). Trade war is hardly 25%, and the tariffs were meant to be reciprocal anyways XD so wooo, big move. Weren’t you facing fraud charges or something just recently cuz you stole from your own people?

Trump is a joke but nobody is laughing. Trudeau puts Trump to shame. This is why Canada is respected, while Trump is regarded as a bully and a petulant child who is intent on hurting his friend to impress another bigger bully. The people of the US are most at risk and hopefully will eventually realise that Trump is the problem and not the answer. He is driving the US economy into the ground just to appease Putin. It makes you wonder what information Putin has about Trump that he is holding over Trump's head? This fiasco is making Trump look like a weak fool who cares nothing for what pain the US people will suffer. He is rich and therefore he and his billionaire friends will not feel the pain he is happy to inflict on others.

From Japan, to our friends in Canada.\n\nSurely, we in Japan will also be forced to face a trade war similar to what you, our Canadian friends, are experiencing.\nNo, perhaps it has already begun—perhaps we are merely on the verge of its full-scale escalation.\n\nCanadian friends, your leader has shown a resolute stance against the U.S. government. Please take pride in this. The American left will surely boo him harshly once again, but this is what a true statesman should be. With dignity and composure, he made a difficult decision—not because he wanted to, but because he had to—fully aware that it would bring pain to both nations’ citizens.\n\nCan our own Japanese leaders take such a firm and resolute stance? That, I do not know.\nBut I offer my deepest respect.\n\nAmerica is no longer a protective guardian to us.\nWe must defend our own nation by ourselves.\nThis has become clearer than ever.\n\nPeople of Canada, let us remain strong together.\n\nWith deepest respect and prayers from Japan.

Quit calling it a war Trudeau, they just showed us that they are taking care of themselves...trump will provide americans with what they need... You however have done nothing but take from us canadians..you made our country a drug pit..just drive thru any small to bc towns and look at how many more drug addicts are wandering the streets..10x more since your new drug laws...you give our money away, and how did you get so rich when you gov. Pay heck is only a specific amount?...you soend more canadian tax payers money on a two week vacation that what two average canadian house holds make in a year...rent is outrageous, inflation has put people in the poor house, and in the very end your ego is trying to look good just so you can go off into the rest of your life in your own delusion...go away man. Why dont you support us canadians by accepting the new financial hike and get us on to making momey in different ways...quit complaining and quit trying to get us into a war...when someone puts crap on me, i dont let them own me any further, i just cut them off and get on to living by rolling up my sleeves and doing the work... Trudeau, your just a politician who failed us, quit using the priminister position to make thinhs worse for canada...youve proven that you really dont care about canada, and that you have gotten rich by pocketing taz payers money...go away man...canadians, do fall into the spin doctor media war creating wimpering crap..lets get the right person in seat, manufacture what we need to, rebuild the military that we use to have, and get rid of the liberal party...truedau has done worse to us than usa has...

Trump is a Manchurian Candidate, a Russian agent planted in the WH! Putin is controlling USA, and destroying US from within. Let that sink in! And why are the Democrats still silent? Are they still shell-shocked!?! Canada should trade now with EU!

No one believes the fentanyl lies the American Nazis in the Whitehouse tell NO ONE!!! they should have already been dragged out and took to the gilotin CANADA is our loyal family and we have attacked our own familyand the tariffs are on US!! he has lied on Canada to steal from all of us to give more and more to the billionaires THE OLIGARDS OF AMERICA!!! the elderly of America will starve the children of America will starve and our children of America will be working the jobs the immigrants work to support their families and that is the plan it's in their 2025 plan and everyone who voted for it knew it !!! NOW only knowing they are doing everything in their power to fight this is the only way they will be shown any sympathy!!! everyone who supports these Nazis should be exposed every business from the billionaires to the hotdog stand should be boycotted the real Americans need to support each other now ! what people need now is constant information on who is helping and who is not!! and if the media is going to support the people then we must not support them !! and the commercials on media that show any support to these aggressors or works to suppresses the truth should noted and boycotted .we must boycott them all we cannot give them a penny and take any penny we can we must get our country back let's all go AMERICA NOW!!! we must save america

Canada, you do not have to explain anything! You are dealing with a fascist, racist, misogynistic, corrupt, narcissistic, diabolical dictator, who wants to destroy US alliances and then united us with the access of evil. US citizens know you all are our allies and that you all are wonderful and we support you. We are not at all in agreement with this so-called president we have. You don't even have to explain. We're just waiting and hoping for this utter madness and destruction to stopso we can all be aligned again.

What I dont get is, why do Canada put up tarifs too??????? This will make life in Canada more expensive. I dont get it..... as he says, there are no winnes in a tarif war. So why do the same shit as Trump does? Just let the US pay 25% more... why should you pay more in Canada??? I dont get it.... this makes you just as dumb as Trump.

when are all of you sheepeople going to realize that this media is offering only propagandized information. and their newscaster’s probably don’t even realize what they’ve been sold. That's why they’re so good at 4:38 selling us that garbage. I think it was Clinton that legalized us being propagandized. this man was shamed out of his Prime Minister position. he’s no friend to Canada and certainly not a friend to America. he’s been bought off and I’m sure he comes with a high price tag??????\nThe swamp is an ugly place. Maybe it takes an ugly acting man to clean it up. Go Trump! \nI’m turning off the fake news, it’s such a turn off the way they insult our intelligence. Wake up people!

The uk ?? stands with you Canada ?? many are actively boycotting US goods right now. Let's do more business ?.

I’m a Canadian and no fan of Prime Minister Trudeau. It’s unfortunate the best speech he ever gave was after he resigned as Prime Minister. What he has said in this speech is absolutely true, despite the fact, I think Trump is doing some good things for the USA. This Terrif war with your neighbour is stupid. Unfortunately for us in Canada our Prime Minister has not given us the tools and freedom to grow economically and prosper the way we should have. Canadians should be living like Kings, but unfortunately are living paycheque to paycheque because of the stranglehold that our Prime Minister has put on businesses and its citizens. Now Canada has very little leverage, I believe to fight this Terrif war. Canada has become a pure Cradic nightmare, like the previous administration in the United States were overtaxed over regulated and spend money like drunken sailors on stupid things that don’t help us grow and prosper.

Trump is trying to manufacture a pretext for invading Canada. Trump will soon state that due to Canada's illegal tariffs that are stopping the supply of strategic goods necessary for the security of the United States, he is ordering the US military to invade Canada to secure the supply of those assets. US military of all ranks, you have sworn an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies. Trump is a traitor, he is betraying his allies, he is betraying the Constitution, he is dismantling the system of checks and balances that are enshrined in the Constitution. Trump is the enemy, do your duty and stop him. You have the training, you have the weapons, you have the reason. Fulfil your oath.

Canada is a drug and criminal haven. Trudeau is an absolute liar. He increased prices on all of us Canadians and he dares say Trump will do that. Our country is a threat to the USA. We are open friends with the PLA. Please America take us over. The Chinese have control here and the Indians are replacing us.

I am an American and I support Canada and Mexico for fighting back. The only way to win with this bullying regime in America is to be strong and punch back. The Felon does not understand diplomacy. Prime Minister Trudeau you are a gentleman, you have done everything possible, even allowed yourself to be humiliated by the US, and to what end? Do not bow down nor kiss the ring. Do what you have to to defend your country. Trump only understands strength, so Canada should be strong and fight back. Wish you well.

just wait to see what will happen in Mexico The president of Mexico will also respond with tariffs on the exports that the US makes to Mexico. Thousands of people are expected to gather in the main square of Mexico City. this weekend as support for people from Canada, and the United States who are affected by these tariffs.

Trump could care less how much the tariffs will hurt us Americans. He’s a dictator. The American people don’t support the actions he is taking. Only 25% of the US support him. They are uneducated and easily swayed people. \nMy ancestors are all from Quebec. Boy do I wish I had Canadian citizenship. I pray for Canada and their people. Please forgive the American people for being fooled by this dictator. ❤

Trump is unraveling democracy in the US. There is no reason to impose 25 percent tariffs on Canada. They are our friends. This is unbelievable. Trump is an abomination!!

So every State that wants to leave the US and join Canada, you are welcome ❤❤\nI want to know which state will remain.??

Us real americans stand with Canada, but sadly most of us are so poor, and only gonna get worse. we need a luigi to step up and mario bros the potus

Turn off the lights in America! It can be done….Canada provides electricity to most of northern America. Every crisis in America has been helped by Canadians. Canada sends linesmen down to help repair power lines after storms. Canada will always help us, don’t doubt it. Trump and Vance r complete idiots. If Trump and Vance are in power for much longer, I can see the devil rising because Trump and Vance are Demons. I’m a 60 year-old disabled woman and if I could I would fly to the Ukraine and help them because my country is doing nothing only upholding Putin!

Please remember this Canada. It’s our politicians who have mismanaged our country for decades and brought us to the state we are in now. Ignoring climate change and creating National Debt that can never be paid. Most of us here in the USA love our friends to the north of us.

Dude Its a shame you stepped down. Because you are one Awesome leader. I would rather be #Canadian Right now Than an American. I have found that being an American is not what I hoped it might be. I have been to Canada. Its a wonderful Beautiful nation and its people are some of the coolest in the world. I live so Close to Canada I am sorry We are doing this to you. and the Great Canadian's. I am incensed and angry right now. I want to just leave and defect to another country. I can not Stand the Hideous evil Man Trump And his lackey sidekicks Musk and VD Vance. They are destroying this great nation. Why the military has not stepped in here. Only shows its Cowardice and weakness to follow its own oaths to the nation and its people. Trumps first term was a nightmare. This Term is horrifying. And its killing people. Soon there will be Farms/Camps. Then worse things will come. In Advance There are those of us who are sorry now. Many of us do not have the ability to stop this. and we really really want too.
