Trump just revitalized Trudeau… looks like PP, his guy in Canada just went into a nosedive in the polls… and the conservatives are seen now as the Canadian MAGA that just caused such a disaster in their nest… it’s been eye opening for the world….

Canada buy more products from USA than China,Japan,UK,France combined, Canada is the major supplier of energy to USA

American here, Trump need to make an example out of Canada. Lets take our future state my force ???

China.. canada and mexico can start an economic pact... and f trump back.. ?

So Canada is purposely hurting it's own citizens.\n?

Dump the F35 jet fighter, one just fell out of the sky in Alaska recently. Saab Gripen could be assembled in Canada per Sweden's bid.

Trudeau has already destroyed Canada so bad. Canada will be crushed in this tariffs war to such an extent that it will finally beg America to take it in as 51st state.

Mr trump on his first day said that he is a peacemaker and want the world to stop the fight. He will stop russia ukraine war etc \n\nSo then he chose to put tariffs on canada and at the end who is going to get sufffer Americans what a joke of a person trump is then saying something and creating problem for own people.\nThe reasons that he is giving of putting tariffs has no relation to tariffs.\nIf he geniunely wants illegal immigrants n drugs to stop in US then rather working on border or asking canadins ministers to put xtra protection on borders \nHe choses tariffs\nTotally nonsense person

Canada and Mexico will be crippled by US tariffs. US has no need of any goods imported from these countries and Trump knows it. That's why he is doing this.

Back in 2016, Trump introduced 25% tariffs on China 301-classification imports that severely damaged my business. For whatever reason, he then exempted the tariffs, but the public still assumed that they were in place. It was a perfect Trump win-win move to make the voters think that he was acting tough, while actually exempting the tariffs for us importers. Unfortunately, Biden got into office and immediately took away the exemptions and screwed us. I mention all of this in order to exemplify how nothing is as it seems when it comes to Trump. Sometimes you have to let this stuff play out before overreacting. I think that Canada made a mistake by overreacting so quickly. This will force Trump's hand to pursue the trade war, even if it was not his actual intention.

Canada putting tariffs on American goods hurts Canadians much more than Americans.

Canada needs the US more than the US needs Canada. Canada lives rent free under the protection of the US. Canada wants to tariff the US go ahead. The US has vast amounts of timber, coal, oil, beer, cheese ,bacon and strip clubs. We're good Canada.

Tariffs look like taxes, now the governments will receive more money, both US and Canada. Easy way to boost government income.

Canada fails to stop illegal immigration? How TF does that even happen when Canada is hemmed in by USA? The Greenlanders/Icelandics going to US to look for jobs?!? *Insert confused Jackie Chan picture here*

Canada has a serious mental problem. Why don’t u just go to find more trade partners? Why do u only trade with the ??? Learn the words: Balance Leverage and alternative…

A lot of Canadians seem to want a trade war. When Americans heard that the truckers had gone to the capital Ottawa they were shocked,...mostly to learn that Ottawa was the capital of Canada. Do Canadians really think that most Americans sit up at night worrying what Castro's son will do?

Canada could have stopped the tariff war by cutting off power oil and gas instead. Counter tariffs just punish Canadian consumers

It's amazing that most Canadians have no clue that Canada has had tariffs of 300% on most US goods for ages. Adding 25% isn't going to do anything. This is a clear overreaction by Canada. So it's now 325% compared to 300%? Whut? Trump will now raise it to 50%. Look, if Trump raises tariffs to be equal to that of Canada, it's game over for Canada.

time for canada to join BRIC and OPEC.

God Bless our beautiful Country Canada ?? ? Pray the Lord guides protects and helps the Leaders of Canada and the Canadians to stay strong united and free. What goes around comes around...how can America be great again hurting other countries, they will end up hurting themselves.

A long time ago, most of the world pivoted towards trade with China. Canada and Mexico have been the last holdouts.

As a Canadian, I get treated better as a foreigner in the USA , than as a fellow Canadian in Canada.

Majority of people migrating to canada are from a single Indian state Punjab, but dont blame them to migrate when your government couldn't do math on how many people it need and invited foreigners desperately to come because its population is getting old without building houses/ without enough jobs.

Canada is not place to live...for my job I did visit and my company ask to live there for 5 years if I want... but I run back to spain....canada cold and high cost of living...dont know why indians like cold canada?

this is dangerously insane and frightening. The Americans need to caal in the military the way Piland has! We can't have this invasion of madness.\nWHERE IS THE MILITARY?? \nThis is terrifying! God please help the Americans keep these people out of the USA and therefore Canada God please help us!

Together let’s do something about it instead of leaving. Canada isn’t a country like China where no changes can be made by its citizens. I’m an immigrant, first arrived here in Canada in 2014. Once I heard the US wants to annex us I asked myself what can I do to help prevent this. I think the quickest way is we need a stronger military. I looked up the Canadian military website and found out me as a permanent resident can also be qualified to apply. Although the compensation isn’t that great, if the US really start being unwise I will definitely apply.

I have Leukemia. I have to take a particular medication, that costs $8400.00 PER BOTTLE. Doesn't cost ME a cent...ahhhh Living in Canada is so much easier....

canada ist bankrott...volle Indien und Chinese...

How asylum if they came to Canada with another visa? It's weird. If they got out from their country legally so why we should give them refugee status

Actually to tell you the truth, the cost of housing is about equivalent or a little cheaper when you do the currency conversion, in Canada and the United States. Toronto and Vancouver (which seems to be the primary examples here) are significantly cheaper than New York but the most expensive in Canada. This post is way over the top, exaggerating the situation in Canada.

Wow what took so long! No more immigration into Canada! ?? ? STOP

Canada needs to shut down the border and prevent them from coming to here

Canada screwed up. I even regret coming here.

How to make the whole world hate you one country at a time. He’s been president now for 5 days and he’s already trying to bully Mexico Panana Canada Denmark Greenland and counting.

Welcome to BRICS, COLOMBIA MEXICO CANADA

Great for the American people, you can be proud to have a real leader. Like this Columbian clown president, we also have weak socialist leader in Canada. He had to resign after getting punked by Trump.

Wait on Feb 1, when start high tarifs on MX, Canada and China.

Columbia talk with Canada they may be able to make equitable trade with you further, weaking the position of the USA trump needs to be stopped

Canada will retaliate against the United States.

Mexico, Canada, Columbia, Geeenland, Denmark, Panama… soon no country will want to trade with us anyway.

Canada here - The world is trolling Trump ? keep it up world

Canada has learned a lot from the war in Ukraine. How to take down a large and powerful naval force. Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP) who makes the Sea-Doo. Already has the expertise and production lines in Mexico that can be easily modified to build a fleet naval drones. START BUILDING THEM NOW! Canada can hide one in my garage anytime.

the uk is lookign to trade with cananda to replace usa, we could take colubia too. the EU is considering making canada part of the EU

We need this badly in Canada.

Canada is becoming a 3rd world country.

But Canada can't control their borders. ????

Canada does not want to join you

Canada needs to do the same thing with the 4.5 million immigrants here that are supposed to leave this year.

Trump stands for America. Canada needs leaders like him. But....

Great news. Canada next!
