As an American, I fear Canadians. Do you know anything about history? You’ll know that we were on the wrong side of it right now.

Trump is unfit for the presidency. Something mentally wrong there.

The WSJ got it wrong. He's a dolt and a puppet. Nothing more.

All the libtards in these comments are what’s wrong with America ?? ????????

Im from Quebec, i know US peoples don't hate us, its just a bad leader takes wrong decision...

You started wrong right away! It’s not a trade war! We need it to resolve our financial debts from helping other countries!

All those who are transporters and they still don’t see anything wrong with what’s happening I’m going to pray for you and your delusional state because this does not have anything to do Republican or democrat. This has to do with the rich middle class in the poor two you guys understand that he does not give a damn about you. He only wanted to vote. You’re going to understand when things start happening in your life in your world and you’re begging for help and you realize that this person sees you in need of help and they won’t help you Then you’re gonna realize he used you but until your world comes crumbling crashing down you’re not gonna understand so sit back enjoy this ride and watch your life. Crumble everything you work for will be gone. All your hopes and dreams will be gone after his presidency is over after this. You know how long it’s gonna take for us to come back from this hell we might even be rule by Russia everybody ready for that I don’t think so. They’ll be no democracy in this country no longer you will do what is told of you or you will suffer consequences they will be fatal so wake up get a grip on what is happening in reality right now you wanna look at him like he’s God he’s king. I don’t see him as a present. I see him as a fucking problem. He thinks he’s solving problems. He is creating chaos and more problems. When this is over we’re not even gonna be able to fix this shit it’s gonna take decades hell these people may not even wanna do business with us ever again we gonna be a third world country And everybody else around us gonna be thriving.?

man, just living to survive is hard enough for many people even for min wage earners and now this. The point? I think its ego from trump. Dont get me wrong I actually support some of trump policies but this is spiraling out of control. Ukraine, Allies turned enemies wtf.

The prime minister is wrong. Trump is NOT a smart guy. But he is doing what Putin wants - weaken the West.

Honestly I don't know why people hate on prime minister Trudeau I think he did an amazing job during a time when nobody could predict what was happening during covid and I am glad he is speaking out because in my opinion Trump has lost his mind I am not joking I think he either has dementia or dementia? and he has been making fun of Canada ever since he got elected again and what is wrong with Americans that they re-elected this person that made their country a laughingstock honestly it makes no sense to me❤ and from him saying he's going to make Canada a state of his we are bigger than your whole f**** country you stupid bastard? sorry but he makes me so angry and yes I am a proud Canadian❤

Oh this explains the comments I’m watching CNN. Wrong video

USA never spoke that they also are responsible to protect their borders too..! This is not justifiable ! They are abusing the all world specially in USA they are destroying trust for other countries. Trump is doing definitely everything wrong!!

Your wrong we have our on supplies don't worry it will bring jobs home

Bro said Donny what’s wrong?

Republicans are pathetic and are betraying Americans because no one has the balls to say “No Donald Trump! What you’re doing is wrong!”

Trudeau is a dictator. ? dosent this guy fine and throw his own people in prison for using the wrong pronouns for the mentally Ill?

Wrong move Pinocchio, how do you expect Trump will remove the tariff now?

Tariffs make no sense!! Which leads me to believe trump is tanking the stock market on purpose so that the rich can buy the dip!! That or trump just wants to prove everyone wrong and proof that his tariff theory will work for US!! What a ?

Dear trump supporter,\nFor 10 years we tried to warn you, we tried to make you see the truth that trump was neither your savior or your friend, \nbut sadly you let emotions and narcissism control you and did not listen, \nyou voted for him anyway because you are all terrified of admitting you were wrong.\nNow the whole world is telling you the same thing, will you listen, finally?\nSincerely,\nThe World

As a Dane I stand side by side with Canada ?? ?? Also side by side to the amarican people who can see what Trump and his administration are doing! Shame that it has to come to this, I hope that the Americans somehow can stop this, before it goes wrong. We stand together, against this madness ?❤️

I remember the old days when he was correcting Canadians that weren't wrong about gender ideologies.

Dear American.. You voted for the wrong person .. That agent, KGB Krasnov ( trump ) , will destroy your country.. Take today that idiot down, because - tomorrow, maybe - too late .

Who the f voted for Trump??? I can not believe Americans are so ignorant to vote for a criminal!! Now he’s destroying our country, hurting the wrong people and helping a murderer! We all knew he was a liar, corrupt and a criminal and they still voted for him!!!! I hope all those who voted for him are not happy and I hope they revoke their right to vote because they are too ignorant to have that privilege

I love Americans, please make sense of this? We never did anything wrong.

Canada President was right about protecting his country, but his wrong about Trump, he not a smart guy….. he’s a Russian sympathizer trying to take over the world….. I’m embarrassed to have him as our president United States.

You were wrong at one point only, Trump is not smart, he is as dumb as his actions. In a few weeks he messed up the free western world holding hands with Putin?! Used to love the US and went there every year for holidays.. now we will go to Canada.. as a Swede I think I would like both the land and the people. Your president seems to be great?

This is insanity. We've allowed an insane person to run our country. A mass number of Americans are simply wrong headed regarding what matters. This and many other moves will only make us weaker and poorer.

Shame on Republicans who stay numb while Trump is out of control. They know that Trump is fundamentally wrong.

As a Marine Corps Veteran, a die hard patriot to the USA, and as a Trump Supporter; I do not support this. We shouldn't Impose tariffs on one of our closest allies. It should also be stated I'm not a fan of Trudeau at all, but I commend him for helping out with the fentanyl situation. Also I don't like how Trump is Siding with Russia. However I do understand his stance on not wanting to continue to send Money to Ukraine to keep the war going on longer, As we have sent them Billions of Dollars in the last three years. However as a US citizen I also have to state the the US has a history of supporting countries that were invaded in the past, which we have done up to this point in Ukraine. Correct me if I'm Wrong, but when have we just stopped supporting the invaded country and sided with the Invading country?

What's wrong Russia did wrong to Canada then why scold putin, you and others aligning with Benjamin is that justification ,US puts tariff on you too do ,why this step you are terming as wrong, simple business rule

Am I dreaming or do we leave on a parallel world\nIt was not long ago I watched the handmaids tale I’m sure I saw jd Vance in there\nWhere is the USA going I am fed up with narcissists ruling our world they popping up everywhere and trump is the worst\nNow I did think that trump may have been the answer to peace not with Elon musk and jd Vance at the helm the real power trump on Friday looked week an old man losing his temper while the son Vance winding him up\nHe should have shut Vance down abit like the godfather with his son\nThe back lash shows that weather we like it or not live in a global world not a war one but an economical one\nSo where do we go well putin is the enemy to his own people I bet if you went round the world and asked young people families do they want to fight no of course not they wake up on morning go to work believe there god have good times where they can they just want fair governments to protect there interests Donald you have got this wrong big time

His comments are well taken to heart.But for this administration to side with Putin / Russia is plain wrong.

Dear Prime Minister Trudeau, We know Canada is on our side. Unfortunately, too many Americans voted for a narcissist, and narcissists are never wrong... In their mind.

DJT is jealous of Trudeau's hair and the eyeing he gets from Melania. Trudeau and WSJ are wrong, DJT is not a smart man.

Justin, I'm sorry! Canada I'm sorry! Please put the screws to America. We are willing to suffer because this is wrong! Fentynal invasion is a lie. Why cut all public funding to help addiction if we truly have a problem? ???

The world is going crazy, or I should say Trump is going crazy. There is something wrong with Trump. Republicans have to act. I can't imagine how the world will look 4 years from now.\nThe sad part is they would have to impeach both the president and vice president who might be even more dangerous. How to do that? I don't see it. The Republican party changed big time since his first term.

Trueau was wrong .. Trump is not a very smart guy.. He's an idiot! Please make no mistake and know of the idiocy you are dealing with!

SAY IT LOUDER JUSTIN TRUDEAU ????????\n\nMANY TRUE USA ???????? CITIZENS ARE FOR YALL CANADA ?? ??????FOR YOUR NOT DOING ANYTHING WRONG EXCEPT PROTECTING YOUR COUNTRY ????????\n\nI AM PERSONALLY THINKING ABOUT MOVING TO CANADA ?? ?????? OR MÉXICO ????????\n\nI ABSOLUTELY REFUSE IN MY LIFE TIME TO BE CONTROLLED BY THE ANTICHRIST OR THE BEAST, \nTHEM BOYS ARE NOT MY PERSON MY PERSON IS MY HEAVENLY FATHER GOD , MY LORD JESUS CHRIST MY SAVIOR ????????

Trudeau gave a good speech. But he was wrong about one thing. He said DT is a smart man, no he isn't!!!

Donald Trump and Elon Musk has the whole world by their balls. As much as Donald Trump is wrong about South Africa but as for protecting USA, he is doing what a good leader should do to protect his country and his people. Fentanyl is destroying America. Don't need to be there to know. Just search Philadelphia Streets

What's wrong with the language, culture, and economy? Quebec and all the politicians are screwing it up.

American supporters of Donald Trump. Stop, look, and listen to what you’re hearing here today. Are all the world leaders and people across the world wrong? What makes any of you think that Trump is right? Are you really willing to continue to stand with that man as he dismantles all relationships with allies and all fellow human beings who stand for democracy? Look at what he’s already been allowing Musk to do so far at this point in this country. The time has come to truly ask yourselves what you stand for and make the right choice

This is amazing. This prime minster talks as if Canada did nothing wrong and US decided to bully them for no reason. If everything's fine and dandy, we wouldn't have done this. Trump did what he did because of \n\n1. Drug trafficking from north + illegal emigrants\n2. Unfair trade deficit in times when our national debt is unsustainably high. \n\nWhy so high? Because we've been giving Canada SURPLUS for decades. Can't do that no more because we have to save our country now. Don't mischaracterize this move, fools.

From Ukraine with respect. A few decades ago our school hired a Canadian as a native speaker to teach us some spoken English. He was not very smart and made some grammar mistakes here and there. But what surprised me is how on his 1st day he tried to make a joke, smth. “We, Canadians, have nothing to apologize for, except for Celine Dion”. He startled to giggle, searching our faces for a sign of approval. There was none! We love Celine! To this day it astounds me how many Canadians badmouth their great singer or their own Prime minister. What is wrong with you? Like every Canadian I’ve met kept saying many unpleasant things of Trudeau. You should be proud of your prime minister the way you are proud to be Canadians and slow down on insulting him!

This is starting to get a little out of hand here , you know something is wrong when Canada wants to have a stern conversation with you. ??‍♂️?

Trudeau is a Transvestite ❤ A cross dresser. Nothing wrong with that ?

This Is the 1st step for an invasioni of Canada in fiew time.liar Trump and his friend now can bombarding american information about the evil Canadians.hope i'm wrong. this Is a nazi procedure

Canada the good people here in America do not want this either because we don’t have a billion dollars to work with and truthfully I wouldn’t want it then either! We got Billionaires that want to act like two year olds here and worse yet they have been spoiled there whole lives and they claim to have never been wrong! We will do our part and would like to ask you to do everything possible to hurt the economy so we can turn the vote around and put them republicans in the protest against these criminals running our government! We will win together I am already seeing cracks in their front! We are with you Canada ?? signed old man from Ohio that has a brain and a heart!

They say all political careers end in failure, Trudeau, given his performance the last couple of months, may you prove that wrong.

As an American, I'm disgusted with these tariffs. Trump is definitely doing the WRONG thing here. We should be working with Canada and Mexico, not against them. It seems like Trump wants to be Putin's little Bitch.
