Trudeau should be our next Prime Minister...!!! ?\nOur economies are so inter-twined because it WORKS! So many American companies have set-up plants in Canada in order to profit from doing business here. It's not just products that we MUTUALLY benefit from selling to each other, the US generates significant profits from its many operations in Canada, and those $Billions of dollars in profits that go back to American Investors is not included in the 'Trade Imbalance' that is a justification for the tariffs. With those profits included, I'd bet Canada is the nation with the imbalance not in its favor...

Mr Trump is a criminal, who is destroying the United States of American. I love Canada and Canadian people . Washington state loves Canada. We are trying to stop Mr Trump and Mr Musk. This is not America, ????✌?

? no justification? Commitments mean nothing, you have done nothing but talk for years. And attacking the US president shows that your grasp of power is fading. I wish Canada the best and hope they get a Prime Minister they deserve.

We love you Canada ??

Much love and respect to Canada from Denmark. We're with you all the way! ?

OMG... THE TRUTH! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau! You ARE the voice of reason, strength, dignity and intelligence! As an American, I am sorry to the lovely people of Canada. I am mostly sorry for myself having to live through this. Keep the peace Mr. Trudeau, and thank YOU!

LMAO- KIck rocks you loser. USA does not need you or Canada

I believe that the different Canadian parties need to get together to form a National Government to show the Americans that Canada is united.

The world must join forces together. Side with Canada now and impose tariff on USA

Canada is not pir friend

I'm an American. And I stand with Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, and all of our European allies. I do not stand with my president and my government. I'm sorry Canada. I didn't vote for this.

Look at this weird looking ghoul of a stuffed suit. \nFree Leslie Bory and make him Canadian PM! \nOh Canada!??

Make Canada Great this will show the world something. Best of luck,

Canada and EU join together as common market

Better uplift the gun laws in Canada buddy.. you don’t want smoke with the US???‍?

Wait a second, just a few weeks ago CNN was saying that Canada had outfoxed the US/Trump and they were not doing anything more than what they had decided to do well before Trump's election when it comes to stopping illegal immigration and the transport of fentanyl into the US? Now they are trying to convince us that Canada is very understanding and accommodating of US needs and is doing a lot!!!! Fake News Network! True Americans should stand with United States of America and not Canada. LOL

When countries put tariffs on the US the citizens pay more for goods. Now Canada will tariff their own imported goods like beef, vegetables, cars, cosmetics etc and who’s gonna pay the price, Canadian tax payer. See the difference?

American that lives in Canada ??. Best move I ever made, USA is utter chaos and division.

Please take CNN & BBC TO CANADA...

Trump chose to do this its not Canadas choice and I simple do not see how its justified. This is a tax on Americans make no mistake its OUR prices that will go up as well as Canadians. This sure smells of Russian influence to me, its almost as if Trump is trying to hurt America, he is for sure tearing up the Government. If Putin had a wish list separating us from our staunch allies would be #1

Ive switched from buying things from the united states, and instead im buying from canada.

What a hypocrite, he also decide to do that to the Canada. Like if he had the upper hand... This guy has to get out!! Trudeau, what a bad person and a liar.. he does exactly what he said.. hypocrite.. this guy is alao desire war over his people...

Another American here, Trudeau absolutely KILLED it! Such a great speech. \n\nI stand with Canada, the EU, and Ukraine. \n\nHopefully this shameful chapter in our country is over soon.

Team Canada

As an American, I am on the side of Canada

It’s lights out for some of the us states. When Canada turns off the lights. \nAnd gas bout to jump to 10 bucks a gallon.

Boycote everything that is American label, and support Canada by spending your holliday in Canada✌️

Go Canada!!\n Europe is 100% with you..\nRespect to President Trudeau and all Canadians!!\nPs... Bet they won.t show this on Fox!

@robertedward7023 The channels you watch spoon fed you propaganda day and night. Try doing your own research for once in your life. Canada is making everything that goes into Fentanyl. They do NOT want our borders closed. Go see how much is really coming in from the northern border. It's not the 2% that they apprehend!!!! It kills 200 Americans PER DAY!!! EVERYDAY!!!

Canada should immediately shut down all electricity, minerals, building materials and oil exports to the USA. They have plenty of other customers worldwide. I'm American.

Who cares what he has to say. He is not Canada 's PM anymore and no longer represents us.

Screw Canada! Screw the EU! Screw CNN!

Bravo Trudeau ?????? As an American, I stand with Canada & Ukraine & against the traitorous, sniveling, corrupt executive branch of our government

As an American, I can say I 100% stand with Canada and their response. Trump and his henchmen are LITERALLY severing ties with our greatest allies while simultaneously sucking up to scumbag Putin! I can’t understand how this can be a good thing? We’re becoming just another authoritarian nation at this point…

What the heck does Putin have on Donnie? Was it pedophilia on Epstein's Island? was it sex with boys and girls? Was it the mythical pee tapes? Whatever it is it has to be big enough to get Donnie to break with all the US's traditional allies which has to be making Putin rub his hands with glee. How far does this adjudged rapist, and 34 count felon that the US decided it wanted to make it's President, have to go before someone steps in and say that Trump represents a clear and \npresent danger to the economic and military security of the world? His administration forced New York's director of the FBI to resign because that man did not want to give up the names of personnel who investigated the Jan 6 insurrectionists. He put a known Russian apologist, Tulsi Gabbard, in charge. He has frozen aid to a country actively fighting for it's very survival against an aggressive and expansionist Russia. He applied tariffs against Canada and threatens the same against Europe., he has banned the freedom to protest in colleges though he freed people imprisoned for rising in actual insurrection against the Government. Dictatorship comes in steps isolation from the world and suppression of freedoms are but two. The free world weeps for what the US is becoming under this current administration.

All countries must do what Canada is doing we tired of republican thugs trump his a devil sick crazy old man imperialist we are not leaving in the olden days the world has change America will be finished soon

This is totally on Trump. Canada did not choose this. I’m proud of the way Prime Minister Trudeau is handling this.\n\nTrump is not such a smart man. Smart men don’t attack friends and allies.

Europe and other NATO countries and affiliates, like Canada, are going to have to develop or implement their contingency plans, as they have been. We are no longer a reliable ally to anyone. It's the United States government, not the people of the United States, although somehow we reelected this clown show.\n\nNot a conspiracy theorist, but I will never believe he freely won all 7 swing states.

Trump isn't dumb. While he creates chaos and outrage, you are getting robbed every day so badly you will foreget that Canada ever existed.

This dude is a joke. Canada is like the progressive left. Yesterdays news . And Trudeau don't scare nobody

SLAVA UKRAINE and GOD BLESS CANADA from a US Citizen who is already feeling the affects in his work place because of this BS Tariff! Steel prices going up are causing us to raise our prices on our products made of steel which is everything we make!\n\nTO ALL US CITIZENS! Write your representatives and let them have it!!!!!

Has it not occured to anyone to mention the the flow of illigal migrants does not flow south from Canada but more are trying to get into Canada from the US.

American from Colorado stands with Canada. Take the lights out in the red States.

Maybe Trudeau can use the tariff incomes to expand Canadas military? I suggest pilot training and recruitment in the RCAF and RCN.

Unbelievable how all these comments show that the wool has been drawn over all your eyes. This man is a tyrant and cares not for his own people, never mind the Americans. Go ask the truckers and real grafters of your country.\n \nAll I can say is what he’s doing here with this speech and his actions is he is in fact sugar coating it and this is making it more likely that Canada will be the he 51st state. So I welcome you Canada with open arms. Xx

Trump needs to be held responsible for this mess. With Ukraine, with Canada, and with Putin. He lied to us, as he always does.

Go Canada ✊

Excellent absolutely great new n trump wanted Canada to be 51 states of America what’s a shameful is because trump’s gold n his treasure thankful n respectful ?❤️‍?❤️‍?????????
