If Canada was the 51st state economically it would be last after Mississippi. The only reason you're not eating out of garbage cans is because America buys your crap. America has everything it needs

Justin, make the US west coast Canada's fifth province!

You’re damn right the citizens in Canada are going to feel the pain. Your family must had better realize this and set aside your carbon tax for April so we the Canadians are not only going to suffer from the tarrifs but an increase in our taxes. We do not make the kind of money, benefits, pension that all of parliament enjoy and can weather through this.

wow, Trudeau's speech is like a war speech: so powerful, so clear, intelligent, sharp, coherent, brave. Can he maybe become the president of the USA and bring Canada & the USA under one flag? No need for mr orange anymore to babble & threaten to annex Canada.

I am an American and we are embarrassed by this hierarchy of immature idiots. I respect you Canada!!??

Love Canada

Canada is a great nation ❤....A good ally is hard to find. American must not lose one.

All of this coming from a guy who closed the parliament and refuses to tell us when we will have an election in Canada....This is his fault and Singh from NDP...He has no control over borders and crime is rampant in Canada..His own justice minister had his car stolen twice.He should protect his country like trump doing...

Good for Canada! ?

It's time for Canada and other countries to hit back. Trump MUST Understand that he cannot treat sovereign countries like local suppliers or customers. It's a shame and a pity that people who did not vote Trump are forced to endure the consequences of his and Putin's decisions.As for the MAGAS, it will only occur to them when they can no longer afford fuel for their gas guzzlers and eggs for their breakfast.

I wish I lived in Canada. I didn't choose Trump or Musk

I'm Canadian and I'm tired of hearing this guy speak. He is the real reason Canada is in this position. Anyone that supports this guy needs to do a lil more digging

As a US citizen I back you a million%. We love Canada. Don't let our putrid government change how we think about Canada. We love you guys. Wouldn't have been like this under Kamala. We would continued biden's. Great work and fondness of our northern family.

Go Canada!! We as Americans will suffer, but I support your stand. Americans will have to suffer before they will understand what a moron trump is!!!

Canada is such a hypocritical country. They charge us already huge amounts of tariffs on a lot of our goods.

I am American and support Canada and Mexico’s actions wholeheartedly. That said, I feel you guys are still bending backwards. Please don’t. Talking about fentanyl is nonsense. The man child you are dealing with only understand one thing — strength and sting men. So man up and throw some punches, otherwise he will call you next to White House and ask you to rub your nose. Cheers!

I never thought I’d wish I lived in Canada but I do TODAY!!! Trump is a LIAR & his followers are believing the nonsense even with the facts in our FACE!!

I am Irish and Ireland is with you Canada!????

This is the chance for Canada to asume the leader of the free world

There's many reasons not to like Trudeau up here in Canada, many of which are the reason he'll (rightfully) no longer be the PM next week. As a conservative I hated him for SNC-Lavalin (among other scandals), and the fact that his inexperience with the economy Harper left him is probably part of why this trade war is going to hurt more than it could have, and the fact that he's often been kind of a phony more concerned with looking and sounding good for the press cameras. Not this time. Nothing phony here; I've got to give credit to him for capturing the national mood pretty much perfectly with this speech. Good on him. \n\nAnd congratulations as well to Donald for pretty much handing the Liberals their best shot at a fourth term, too. What an absolute idiot. Normally I'd turn my nose up at having to vote Liberal, but I am so, so sick of the brand of empty populism Trump stands for that it looks like that's what I'm gonna be doing come election time.

YOU GO, CANADA

Then apparently all of you that stand with Canada must not care about the borders and the fentanyl that’s coming into America. I just pray none of you have to ever endure the loss of a daughter, son or family member as I have. It will destroy your lives and I’m not just saying this, I’m living this.

Canada, don't punish us because we're already being punished by the abusive figurehead of our country

I LOVE CANADA

Canada ?? stopped talking and do more action. TURN OFF THE LIGHTS

Everybody says they are the friend of the US, until it's time to be fair. To the world, stop being a bunch of children... or don't. But if not, be prepared to suck it up. Be ready to back up your BS. Don't tell us what our government is doing to us, pay attention to what you are doing to us... and have been since the 1950s. Let us be crystal clear, you Canada, along with Europe and others have been enjoying your subsidized lifestyles off our backs. We are done and finally someone in the White House is hearing us. I don't agree with everything he says and does, but I agree with him that this foolishness needs to stop. Stop now. To Trudeau, Buckel up butter cup, put your blackface on and find yourself a cute little dress, maybe entertainment can be the way for you to go. Talk to you in a few years, let's see how this all works out for you. To Canadian's, Last Chance, come be number 51, before the Russia and China split you down the middle like a roast pig. Send your 250 troops to Ukraine, let's see what you and 2000 Europeans can do after you piss off the Russians... because you are right about one thing, they are led by an evil man, who's word is useless and who doesn't give a rat's butt who dies for his glory.... even if it's you and your children. No worries, you don't need those nasty Americans south of the great white north, your good all on your own. I Just sent Trump another $50. Not going to change the world, but it will let him know we are behind him, no matter what the Libs of the world have to say about it.

Canada has been our BFF almost forever. How can we treat them this way?

I'm an American and I stand with Canada against this racist gangster called Donald J. Trump.\nTrump will eventually lose this trade war.

Aside from this being how a world leader should speak & act, everything Prime Minister Trudeau spoke about is true. I'm American so idk the ins & outs of why he resigned but from here he's doing Canada ?? proud. Its gut wrenching that us Americans are stuck with the ? oompa loompa we have sitting in the Oval office. Trump has not only stomped all over our constitution, he's broken several laws along the way.

Why oh why can't America get a leader like Canada why do we have to subject ourselves to an ignorant buffoon

WOW...A NORMAL person. Canada is so lucky

Here is a list of tariffs Canada Imposes on U.S. but losing their mind over 25% tariffs \nGoods: \n⁃ Dairy Products: \n⁃ Milk: 270% \n⁃ Cheese: 245% \n⁃ Butter: 298% \n⁃ Poultry: 238% \n-Eggs: 163% \n⁃ Barley: 160% \n⁃ Wheat: 94% \n⁃ Sugar: 265% \n⁃ Peanut Butter: 295% \n⁃ Rice: 150% \n⁃ Vegetables: 100% \n⁃ Fish Products: 100% \n⁃ Lumber: 20% \n⁃ Shoes: 30% \n⁃ Cocoa: 30% \n⁃ Metals: 25% \n⁃ Wool: 30% \n⁃ Tobacco: 100+%

Canada work with Europe please! We want people with principles as our partners.

I wonder if the millions of Americans who voted for this sick man, Trump, hold the same hostile views toward Canada and Mexico.

Trudeau is a complete fool who already killed Canada. As a Canadian I think he is beyond corrupt and mentally ill.

Prudeau is a crazy dictator. He has never cared for Canada, only the illegals who live there. It must be hitting his scam money!!

Man, this is kinda scary. I would never say anything like this but Canada is our closest ally.

We have been subsidizing Canada for many years. Gotta pay your fair share.

Canada, just join the EU. We are happy to have you as one more member of our family

Trust me a lot of drugs are coming from South America there are many Central and South American going to Canada and shipping it this way to the United States of America

Mr. Trudeau.. I wish you hadn't stepped down as PM. You're a noble leader for Canada.

Trump speaks two languages. Dumb and Dumber!\nThank you Canada! Many of us stand with you. Hoping we can remove Trump soon and get back to fair trading with our great neighbors!

Can we trade presidents Canada ? plzz just for like a month because he is a real president unlike somebody we know over here in America

Canada needs to stop living off of the United States the bleeding of money and military support has to stop

The response of Trump will be : Trudeau is a nasty man ! \nTrump is unable to complete a sentence ! Peace for our ailles Canada from France ?

This US Citizen will always love our allies, especially Canada, no matter what Trumplets do to destroy the USA!!

I'm an American who is terrified of the future. I stand with Canada and the rest of the world. I pray that this will end before we are completely destroyed.

We love Canada

As.an American, Canada I support you. Trump's an absolute idiot

Go Canada. We have lunacy and insanity here in the US. Trump is a traitor.
