As an American, I want to buy Canadian whenever possible.

As an American and a veteran. I support Canada doing what it feels needs to be done to protect themselves from this hostile and divisive administration in the U.S.

As an American I can say I did not vote for this nor do I want this and I know there are others like me. America is not entering a new golden age we are in the process of a head on collision with the modern dark ages. Sooo Canada what are your polices for becoming a citizen

Let it fall! The US will only learn if they feel it! As an American I stand with Canada!

I’m American but I stand with everything he said!! trump and the republicans are siding with dictators and continue to lie to them about everything….I never thought as an American… the supposed leaders of the democracy free world….would really allow a felon to destroy our country and make us TRAITORS siding with DICTATORS ?

You get the government you deserve. I blame the American voters that put this lunatic in power, and his supplicant MAGA GOP. Hurting our best and biggest allies, and realigning with an evil dictator, Putin is the recipe for disaster for America. Russia is not the world power it once was, but that is the aim of Putin to revive the old Soviet Union. The EU will stand up for Ukraine, with the rest of the world. Then, the U.S. will be left with broken alliances, and only the axis of evil as friends.

So sorry, World, for this American president’s stupidity ! As soon as I can I’m coming to Canada and spend the day apologizing for his stupidity ! Thank you for staying strong against an ignorant bully named trump ! He doesn’t even know what a tariff is and the GOP is afraid to tell him Americans Pay for it ! ????‍♀️ I hate trump ! ?

As an American, I sadly stand with Canada bcuz our govt is just something else

As an American I am with you Canada....

if that American is lazy and will make a circus out of these taxes, sooner or later he will need Canada and the EU, ooo and then see how tough it will be. As an european i m not idiot, americans will need to drive BMW or whatever

Damn as an American that disagrees with many Canadian policies. Somehow I stand with Trudeau right now. Economics 101 tariffs are bad for everybody.

As an American, I am embarrassed and ashamed.

As an American expat living in Mexico . I feel so outraged that the sitting US president has decided to destroy our friendship Canada . My feeling of shame has fallen off the chart in being an American under the dictator we seem to be under now . Please forgive us for the actions of the orange Mob Boss .

As an American I say good for Canada and anyone else who sanctions the us! Let Trump FAFO

As an American I thought voting for Trump would be better then Kamala but I was wrong, if she won I don’t think we would be going down hill as clearly as this.

As an American, I stand with Canada. Most of us love Canada, and tons of Americans did not want this. Still, too many did because they don’t understand what they’re doing.

I AM ASHAMED TO BE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN! AND TO HAVE A DICTATOR LEADER SUCH AS TRUMP.?

As an American, I agree with Trudeau 100%.

As an American I am SO HAPPY you are standing up to this craziness! Don’t back down!! And those who voted for this in the US will feel what they have done. Keep going Canada ??

As an American we are getting a Golden Shower from Trump. As an American I have never been more disappointed of my country then I am now. You do what ever you need to for your awesome country. I believe everything you stated because it's that easy to look into. Trump and Musk are Russian puppets that is easy to prove but the idiots here do not understand the facts. Most of America supports you. God Bless!!

You go, Trudeau and the rest of the great Canadians! As an American, I am ashamed and appalled at the unholy trio of trump, Vance and musk.

As an American I an so jealous of Canada. They have a leader that is intelligent, principled and articulate.

I called the Canadian embassy in Washington DC this morning. I told them as an American citizen. It saddens me and breaks my heart that we are treating our allies with such disrespect. I do not stand with the United States government and their treatment of our allies. I also called the Mexican embassy and told them the same thing. I didn’t announce Trump in his cabinet and what they’re doing to our economy that we have worked so hard to resurrect again after he was president last time. I, urge every person who does not agree with what is going on to call the Canadian and the Mexican embassies and just let them know that we stand in solidarity with them and against our government here!

As an American and human being, I’m beyond embarrassed and disappointed, but not surprised. I apologize for our buffoon “president”. \n❤️ I stand with Canada ?? and Ukraine ??❤

Trump is a total disaster for all Americans except the $Billionaires. But it wasn't the $Billionaires who voted Trump into office, it was the millions of MAGA Morons, the very people who are now losing their jobs in thousands as Musk takes an axe to everything. Tariffs on America's main trading partners means that the American consumers, many of them MAGA Morons, are going to be hit a lot harder in the pocket as prices on their goods rocket. I only feel sorry for the Americans, who saw this coming and voted against Trump. For all the MAGA Morons, don't cry help, you brought this on yourself !!! Here in the UK we support Canada 100% !!!

As an anxious autistic British American I will always stand with my fellow Canadian friends this is beyond diabolical I’m so disgusted for the people that voted for this convicted felon president ??‍♀️

As an American, I stand with Canada.

Thank you for being such a shining example of strong, yet level-headed and clear-eyed leader. As an American, i envy Canadians right now. Thank you for keeping the torch of Democracy alive in North America,

As an American, I stand with Canada.

As an American, I stand with Canada. I am worried, but someone needs to stand up to Trump. I am sorry that it is not the US. So many people still support him and I just don’t understand it.

As an American I couldn’t be more proud of Canada. ??

As an American I am certain that the Enemy from Within is determined to destroy America and the American people. ?????????

As an American, I stand by Canada’s choice. It’s a disgrace to everything the good Americans stand for. \n\nTrump, this puppet trying to change our country into a dictatorship, is beyond disgusting.

As an American, I am ashamed of how our new government is acting. We individuals hold no malice toward Canada and understand that you need to protect yourselves from our own stupidity. We look forward to reestablishing our relationship in 4 years.

It’s really annoying that CNN continues to babble on instead of letting Trudeau finish his press conference and then proceed with their responses. Our country is in the hands of a madman along with Musk and other cowardly Republicans who are in office. For all of those who voted for Trump, wait till energy and other costs rise, but it’s a shame we will all suffer as a result. Canada is our friend I am ashamed right now to call myself an American.

As an American citizen I apologize for the clown ? show we have in government...I can't believe we are in this situation....

As an American who grew up in Canada, this saddens me to my core. I spent my whole childhood and into my 20s in Canada, and am really regretting ever leaving for this cesspool. I still have all of my family in Canada and I will always feel Canadian and will always stand by and fight for them ?❤️?

As a Democracy loving American, who’s against our evil man-child dictator Trump, I want to express an apology to the world. Trump is absolutely insane and morally bankrupt. ?

Thank you Mr. Trudeau for your comments. As an American, I am ashamed of Americans that follow Trump. Its all him. Anyone with a brain knows the people will suffer high prices. Its not what Americans want.

As an American I am humiliated and embarrassed. Donald Trump is an asshole, so is JD Vance and Elon Musk. I apologize to Canada.

As an American citizen, I stand with Canada & the Ukraine - not with Russia.

As an American, i oppose our crazy president. I hope Trump gets removed from office by legislator and gets impeached fast

As an American I do not stand for how our president is leading our country and I am even more embarrassed after seeing a true leader such as Trudeau!

As an American, I am grieving for the downfall of our democracy and the devastation it will create for everyone. We are soooo sorry!

As an American, I am ashamed and embarrassed with how this new government has managed to tarnish and destroy our reputation around the world. I did not vote for that idiot in the White House and for those that did, I hope it was worth it.

As an American I stand with Canada

As an American, I am disgusted to have him as my president. Puck Futin, tuck Frump.

As an American, I didn't vote for Trump, and I certainly don't want this. So sorry Canada ?? ?...and I'm sorry that too many of the American people fell for Trump's lies ?.

As an American, I say Canada shut the hell up and prepare to be number 51?

As an American, Canada do not back down. EU, do not back down. We get what Trump Elon and Vance along with the MAGA Republicans are doing. We apologize for this respectfully. However hard it becomes on us, we know this entire administration is to blame. Please stay strong in democratic diplomacy. Know many Americans support what needs to be done. I support Ukraine
