Seeing people actually fall for this guy’s B.S. you can begin to comprehend how the Egyptians worshiped an insect. In light of rabid anti Americanism in Canada, President Trump would be wise to fortify and close the border as a defensive measure against invasion, infiltration, and sabotage. Canada has made it clear they’d rather spend a lot more to ship oil to China’s Communist Dictator Xi Jin Ping in Asia and back than pay a modest 10% tariff and send oil down an already working pipeline to next door America. Contrary to some mega ignorant comments, The U.S.A. is rich in natural resources and can be self sufficient. We just have to resume use of resources that were shut down by the appropriately initialed Barak Obama, Biden-Harris, and deep state bureaucrats in Washington. President Trump can accomplish this with our support. Shop carefully and please do not buy anything from Canada. Leave all Canadian goods to rot on the shelf. You won’t regret not making it to the Miss Hockey Puck festival in balmy Churchill Manitoba either. Other protective measures should be immediate cancellation of all visas and green cards held by Canadians and their deportation from U.S. territory.

Let's not forget that this the will of the American people. Donald Trump was voted into office. He is effectively an embodiment of the prevailing American consciousness. A democracy puts a country's fate into its citizens' hands, and through Americans' short-sightedness, ignorance and apathy, they failed themselves and the rest of the world.

These tariffs won't last or the American people will make Trump regret it.

Lol, the arrogance. Justine is resigning because his people hate him and they are suffering from his leadership. Trump just got re-elected again and has an approval rating higher than ever. Why would Trump listen to a guy who is a failed leader about his leadership style? Justina is just illustrating that not only is he a failure and loser but also a narcissist

Oh how he Loves the righteous Drama. He is really going to make all the best he can out of this. Awwwww Yes Pleaaase more Dramaaa Ohhĥhhhhh ?\nBefore saying how trump is evil blablabla as a fact without actually explaining anything. Why don't you, Trudeau, start by explaining. Maybe you don't want people to Actually understand anything. You just want to make the best of out the potential drama and self endulge in the ego feeding and self righteousness.

Hi to all the people in Canada the British people are with you, Trump has pissed off its best ally and that's the British, he has upset our long term friends & ally which is Canada - that's the people and country we in England have massive respect & love for, I don't think Trump is doing a good job right now! ?

As an American I am afraid of my government. Our future is bleak and uncertain. I can not do anything due to me being 1 person. I am 1 voice, but no one wants to protest, instead people want to sit and accept it. I do not want this, and I struggle because of the political BS because people are stupid. I do not have the money to relocate my family or I would. This has become a sad and dark part of US history.\nThese tariffs were a result of Ukraine and Trump having an ego trip. Nothing less.\nI will always support my fellow Americans, but there's only so much I will support. I will always support Ukraine Canada and Mexico.

In the case of high treason, i.e. treason against the interests of the people of the country. Who came to power? A man who thinks not about the interests of the US people, but about the interests of a handful of billionaires, including political circles in Russia and China. The war against Ukraine is just the tip of the iceberg of the war of the ruling dictatorships of the Russian Federation and China against the poor strata of the people of their own countries, against Western civilization and the US and the EU as a part of it. This is clearly seen in the propaganda against human rights and freedoms in these countries, the destruction of trust between people. What to do in this case? Wait until the US as one of the foundations of modern civilization is destroyed by short-sighted supporters of anarchy, monarchies and psychopathic dictators who do not respect other people's borders and treaties? Doesn't Trump's actions contradict the basic principles of the US and Western civilization? The United States is a country of democracy, humanism, human rights and freedoms, a country that has become home to the world of many people who have improved the quality of life of billions of people all over the planet. Question: When will the current US President/poppet of dictatorships be impeached?

Right now, 170 million people love Trump (50% of US pop), and over 8 Billion people hate him. Sound familiar?

I don't believe Donald Trump will succeed in everything he chooses to, instead American people will suffer

Trump is (clinically) a malignant narcissis. Hi personality needs to be fed by a constant flow of accolades from his chosen lackeys. He is so easily played by people whispering in his ear that he is being slighted (Zelensky and Trudeau, even if it is imaginary. It is ridiculous that America has allowed this to come about by their majority of incredibly ignorant voting populace. Starmer showed how to handle Trump. Grovelling and obsequious flattery. Noting else. We are dealing with a President of the USA who has a low IQ even lower EQ (think of a vindictive 10 year old). He has sly animal cunning for sure but that's it. We have 4 years of this moron, God knows what damage he can cause. The thing that motivates him ? Challenges, aspirational acts of benevolence ? Don't be silly tuckers and lovers, it's lovely money, as much as is endlessly possible. Is that the American dream? Is that what makes this English speaking nation tick. Looks very much like it.

Trump is running a Scam on the American people \nRegarding the tariffs\nTomorrow he will say\nSomething elsewhere is the issue.\nWhen MAGA people wake up from the miserable reality of their own lives \nYou will have no place to live.\nGod bless !\nEveryone and everything!

My Uncle his daughter. Living Canada. No bady. Can do same wrong. We are American.we supported for you. For ever.beleve or not me trump. Don't worry we getting. Before you. I promise for you. We are American people. We have the power. To do that.

President Trump is Wrong and Should be Stopped by The Supreme Court for violating His Sworn Duty to Serve Americans Citizens, NOT Russians INTERESTS. HE ASO IS BRINGING OUR COUNTRY INTO COMPLETE FINANCIAL SHUT DOWN A DEPRESSION. PUTTIN IS EVIL, BUT SLEEPING WITH HIM ISN'T THE ANSWER TO DEALING WITH HIM. PUTTIN PLANS TO DESTROY THE WORLD, GOG AND MAYGOG. WAKE UP AMERICA, GOD WARNED US ABOUT THE EVIL Leaders THAT WOULD LIE TO US SO THEY COULD CONTROL EVERYTHING EVEN THE COST OF FOOD And WHERE WE GET IT. TAKE NO MARKS ON YOUR HANDS OR HEAD. PAY ATTENTION AND PRAY FOR GOD'S INTERVENTION. MR. TRUMP IS OUT OF CONTROL AS IS HIS CABINET OF PEOPLE. THEY ACT LIKE THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT BECAUSE IT WON'T HURT THEM. IT WILL BE THE WEAK, ELDERLY, SICKLY, WIDOWS, CHILDREN AND THE POOR THAT WILL SUFFER EVEN MORE. WHAT ABOUT ALL OF THE HOMELESS AND THE FOLKS THAT ARE SUFFERING FROM FLOUDS AND FIRE. Washington could be fixing our National problems but they aren't. People are hurting every day in America. Getting poorer and poorer every day. Maybe that's Washington's plan to kill off the needy.

Well, dear Americans, many smart people warned you, but you didn't want to listen and did everything to ensure Trump's political survival and voted for him a second time. \nIt is very clear what Trump wants to do to the USA, and has already done to some extent! He wants a presidency like the Russian, Chinese and North Korean presidents have. \nA presidency with unlimited power, no Congress, no Senate, no independent courts.\nI can only hope, the world can only hope, that there are still enough Americans who will fight against this.

Greetings from Poland - Canada is doing the right thing, cant back down. Trump is creating a coalition against USA, instead of against China. \nI’ve been to Canada a few times and you people are great. Stay strong

Never had more respect for the Canadian Prime Minister. I'm elated there's a man in politics, not just any man, but a leading figure , who has the guts to speak frankly! Everyone needs to do this, Trump is siding with a vile dictatorship, he's made a bed with Putin - it's clear as day and it's also clear as day that his government is not a government for the people, but for the nepo-billionaires that it's now made up of. Similar to how the Russian government is made up of oligarchs. Democracy can never be taken for granted, it's something we need to fight for!

I am sick of Trump but it teach a moral lessons to a Canadian govt. But many citizens don't get it because the US tariffs did enforce the Canadian govt to secured the borders to save many peoples lives from illegal drugs.

TRUMP SHOULD STEP DOWN FROM PRESIDENT. WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DONT WANT THIS.

Trump also caused China to cut the flow of Rare Earth Minerals to the US which lead to the attempt to extort Ukraine of its natural resources. Similar situation , failure to recognize that China is supplying the raw materials driving the surge in technical advancement. To then try to deny the product of that raw material supply, aka cutting edge Chips.. back to China, is moronic. In Trumps world a Win/Win is a sign of weakness...except now China cut off the US from supply and there is no replacement.... Annnnnnnnd so the logical move is to pick other things being supplied and do the same to Canada..... when Canada pulls the plug on supply, the result will be the same. EVERYONE worldwide should take note and begin cutting supplies to the US and ceasing dependance on US manufacturers in favor of those with governments who will accept Mutually beneficial relationships as what they are...a Win/Win. China and Canada should deepen ties. Ukraine is better off working with Russia than allowing itself to be extorted. Everyone else should distance themselves from the US and honestly this damage Trump is doing will take decades to undo. The US is not reliable so long as they fail recognize international law and fair trade when it doesnt suit them... this is good for noone, but it will be worst on the US. Thats how WW2 started... Tariffs collapsed the German economy. Caused the Great depression. Germany and its people were forced into a corner. This is what Trump and his masters are trying to do. Starting WW3 is on someones agenda and whomever that is is also pulling Trumps strings. Bad times ahead

You guys in the US need to understand Vance is as dangerous as Trump. At the 2024 election almost 90 million eligible voters sat on their backsides at home instead of voting. As a Briit and on behalf of the planet, I implore those people to get out next time and vote this MAGA scum out of the WhiteHouse. It's not going to stop when Trump goes. Keep that mind people. PLEASE!

You Go Trudeau. Well done. Donald is an idiot. Trump is clearly being manipulated by Putin and He's not smart enough to figure it out. I think Putin has something on Trump like a legal issue or something to do with money. Just a quick Question for the people who voted for Trump. Are you still happy with your decision voting for Trump? We have to push Trump out of the White House and in to a prison cell.

Well done Canada! We love and support you! We had to go through a virus pandemic, a War, and now a trade war, what madman would do such a horrible thing for the people around the world?! There’s no peace as long as the political system stays the same! Horrible! This is what Russia and China want all along ! They wanted everyone to go against the US! Trump has shot himself and his policies on the foot and it will be dire for the US in the long run! OMG

This is why THE WORLD respects Trudeau. Dumb ass Trump thinks he's genius for imposing tarrif's to their long standing economic partners, but he is ACTUALLY DOING MORE HARM THAN GOOD to the american people. Countries will tarrif back hurting both businesses and the american people he so wish to give a good life to. They are a bunch of clowns who are basically just giving us good television. Americans are not dumb. Trump will keep on twisting and twising the narrative to sell his side of the story, but it's clear as day that the only back Trump has ever got is Putin's. Sadly, America is becoming a lapdog of Russia under Trumps pretentious leadership.

Lots of Americans on here saying they are embarassed or stand with Canada.. sorry but you're outvoted. The AMERICAN people VOTED in their MAJORITY for this. Trump said he would do it, got elected and he's done it. \n\nPeople like you commenting say you want democracy but it seems you only want it when you win.

STOP! The Canadiens are not our allies. We, here in the United States of America, ARE FREE PEOPLE! Canadiens are Socialists, you are not a free people. You have no way to self correct by free elections. Look at what TRUDEAU did to those truckers. No accountability! Look what they did to President Trump. WE THE PEOPLE SPOKE...and now retribution. Canada needs to adopt a similar system. Trudeau is a piece of shit!

From the USA good for you Canada. People who voted for Trump don’t understand the significance increase of prices that will hit their pockets severely.

More leader need to speak this frankly to Trump and call out his bs and out and out lies. Everyone one with a brain can see Trump is an crazy narcissist who knows nothing about running a country for the people and it’s best interest, or understands what tariffs actually are and how they work. Trump only sees what Trump can gain personal and for his rich buddies.

We know Trump is lying, but we have a bunch of racists misogynistic people in this country!

Trump must respect people

mr. trudeau and im being polite your the reason for this mess, for being a complete incompetetive leader for the past 9 years and i also blame the canadian people for being so stupid because of your name reelected you twice. mr. trump had a vendetta against for you being a two face leader.

Trump has destroyed trust in US allies, and it can ont be repaired easy. Trust can be destroyed in minutes, but it takes many years, maybe decades, before it can be gained again. It affects not only what US experiences right now with Canada and Mexico. Be sure that even Taiwan Australia and all other Asian allies are questioning right now if USA can be trusted. Imagine, Trumps breaks a treaty with Canada and Mexico which he personally has established in his first presidency and sold to his people as the greatest deal that has ever been archieved. Tells you a lot about US credebility. Trump is right now destroing world order which has been established mainly by USA after WW2.\nI heared, that there are rumors, that Trump might be a Russian KGB agent since 1987. I don't know if that is true, but it would explain a lot of why Trump is acting as he does - it is not in the interest of USA, pressurizing/blackmailing/offending/humiliating US allies and destroying US and foreign economies. This is practically enacting a wishlist of foreign dictators like Putin and Xi Chin Ping.\nIt certainly will not make America great again, but poorer, weaker and internationally isolated. it will be US people that will suffer the most.

Trump force you to be self sustainable and you think it harmes you ? Don't think like a retard . Trump force you're goverment to grow you're life style quality as a simple person , not to be stole by corporations , only people have to win from this.

I deliberately bought 2 years worth of Clean People detergent sheets from Canada because I knew Trump would do this. He's such an idiot.

I trust trump over you, look at how you treated your people ….the trucker’s ring a bell?

The trade war is just the begining. Trump will use the fentanyl crisis and lie to people that Canada does nothing to prevent trafficking this drug. And how Trumpo will want to protect his beloved country? By sending army to the border with Canada. And then? Well maby an intervention on Canadas land? Trump loves Putin, Hitler. And they did the same as decribed above. By the end of 2025 we will have a 3rd world war.

The racist and the racist whites and blacks and all other racist in the United States voted for this guy and corrupted their friends who were innocent and didn’t know who to follow brainwashed them to vote for dump trump and you see the things he do and being good friends with Putin and the United States are stuck with him for another 3-4 years that’s how bad it is in most parts of America welcome to corrupt freedom and there it is but hello to our friends who still stand for democracy and the real presidents that run the country the right way we still follow behind you Obama Biden Kamala Harris and the other Democrats and not delusional republicans to stand against dictators and evil corrupt officials and evil corrupt people in this world! ???????????????????????????????????????? ??????

The world watched trump put a desperate man willing to protect his country. The world is watching trump cozy up to russia’s dictator. The ramifications are showing, slowly but surely.\n\nUS’s dominance is nulled. The real losers are its people.

Woke doesn’t work…. President Trump finally is giving my country back to the people. It is time my tax dollars stop paying for other country benefits. Maybe your leader should stop talking out of both sides of his mouth. Finally proud again post forced illness. Wake up people!

Wow, Trump is making some huge progress for the USA, in less than a month he has upset more countries, of which were mostly allies of America, and turned them into anti Americans and all in less than a month, and he calls that progress into making America great again .. maga ? Really or maybe it stands for making a globe angry. There’s only a very small handful of people that actually like Trump, that’s his family (debatable) JD (his puppet) and Putin (his new ally) wow America what have you done ??

trump is becoming the next putin, get all the billionares and people like netaanyahu on his side and then attack his own people and his allies, trump should of supoprted gaza but that would never happen in a million years because america is a lapdog of israel ( which will never be a country ) the world will always resist and fight back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent coverage of one of the greatest tragedies perpetrated on the American people by its leader. I strongly take issue with the Wall Street Journal opinion of Donald Trump, being a smart man. Only a flaming idiot would let Vladimir Putin play them like a puppet. God bless Canada and it’s unbelievably understanding beautiful people who’s empathy is boundless and God bless Justin Trudeau, who will be unbelievably missed on the world stage and as a beloved, American, cousin, and dear neighbor‼️

Donald is a convicted felon so I’m hardly surprised that he’s robbing tax payers blind and leaving the security and economic stability of the US off his priority list. He’s there to sifen as much money as possible until he’s kicked out or until he has enough to buy Gaza, and whatever portion of Ukraine Putin has promised him if he lets Russia win. All this is to in four years use the money he stole to build Trump Resorts ?️ on both plots of land and be hailed as an intelligent businessman by people who refuse to pick up a book ?

I can't stand CNN = Communist News Network, and I don't care for Trueau but I'm going to have to stand with him on this. Trump is being absolutely rediculous that is going to hurt the poor and working class poor in both countries, Canada as well as America. I sincerely appologize to the Canadian people because my President who said he would make America great again has instead lost his mind and has went off on some insane tangent that will not hurt him or his rich friends (On both sides of the political fence).....Now Mexico that is where the garbage is coming from.

Looking at this from FInland, I really appreciate Trudeau's strong stance on this. He's addressing Donald, but I think he's also speaking to the American people.\n\nA question came to mind - people talk about allies, but who does Trump see as an enemy? Has he been asked that? Something makes me think that in his head the actual enemy is people in his own country...

We dont want this either...Trump is a cunt with no refernce point to reality for the working people...he's gotta go! This trust fund fool does not represent the US people... he's horrific. Period. Apologies in advance to ALL COUNTRIES this horrific male (TRUMP) will inevitably insult. WE LOVE YOU BACK!! SO SORRY HE EXISTS...clearly he thinks he's looking for rating at all times...ugh

Once Trump chose to back Putin, he lost the privilege to represent the American people.

And Jesus, why are you talking around it? Call that stupid MO Fo out! Talk around it, God! Stop Trump or we're gonna be a communist country! WAKE UP American press, we the people ate watching, speak up or you too will have a FAFO moment! I stand with Canada, elbows up!

I wonder what the people of US sees in Trump? He is making enemies everywhere

Trump is isolating his friends of the world like Mexico, China and Canada and kissing Putins arse . People this could lead to some idiot pushing some buttons like that idiot in Korea or Russia . Japan is in danger as well as the Ukraine . The USA used to fight for democracy and now trump wants the Ukraine to surrender to Putin .
