American here. I stand with and support Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. DOWN WITH TRUMP! DOWN WITH MAGA!

Thank you Canada! As an American I stand with you!

I'm from the UK and I stand with Canada. America should be absolutely ashamed of their president. Trump treats friendly countries like this, then rolls over and becomes nothing but Putin's little bitch. Trump is pathetic and Americans are disgraced by him and his lies.

As an American, I find it insane that we are picking a fight with Canada. As far as I’m concerned, Canada, Australia and the UK are extended family. You don’t disrespect and threaten family like this.

Patriotic American here. My government no longer represents me, my interests or my ideals. Thank you PM Trudeau for speaking up. Thank you Canada for being strong and decent people.

From France ?? we side with the righteous and our Canadian brothers, but also with our American friends victim of the madman! \nWell said, and well done Canada! Enough with the orange tyrant! ✌?

I STAND WITH CANADA AND ALL OF OUR ALLIES! More than half of Americans did not vote for this privileged, greedy, out-of-touch mess of an administration, and we will be letting them know it for the next four years!

This American stands with Canada ?? Best neighbor any country could hope to have. God bless Canada and may God help us all…

Your country is now going to go broke cuck boy Trudeau, your a liberal slime that has ruined that country. This will hurt Canadians a whole lot more than Americans, pack your stuff, move on and sign over your country to us! 51st state of Canada, you can’t weather this storm, your already broke.

Hey Trump, this is what a real leader looks like. As an American I'm so ashamed of our government. We love you Canada.

Go back and listen to Trump on tariffs. If a country is fair with America, America will be fair with them. Americans do not realize how many tariffs we pay as a country. There are also countries that do not allow us to sell in their countries although they sell to America.\n\nFor years Canada has allowed a steady flow of illegals and drugs into our country. Now only after Trump calling them out they have started putting A FEW programs into place. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN THE LAST YEARS.

Canada is soo much more ahead. Shaming the Canadian pm,doesnt help to disguise the screw ups coming from the US.. \n\nCanada shows having balls& self respect. \n\nMany countries can learn from their insights..\n\nCNN,.. write this down in paper... And read it back.. \n\nCNN ( the US one) need to get look at themselves,the attitude is beyond arrogant. \n\nYou forget that the whole world sees the tricks youve played for decades. \nManipulating/suggesting .. \nPlease.. Americans,canadians,europeans, asian citizens Arent that dumb.. stop behaving that we are..

Embarrassing to be American and Russian these days ... love to Canada from Europe

I’m so embarrassed about what is being done in my name as an American right now . I am sorry Ukraine. I am sorry Canada

Dear Canada and Mexico,Ukraine,China, and everybody else he shits on-\nDonnie Dump does not speak for most Americans, We love and respect people-

Spoken like a true leader. Canada, I stand by you and your decision to stand your ground. Americans do not support this action. It’s time for you, the TRUMPSTERS, to stand in opposition to your GOD and to show that this is not the American way!

American Standing for Canada. Don’t What that parasite Trump get across your border.

As an American I'm proud of Canada's response to 47's tariff insanity.

AGREE,what is this about definitely not the border !Trumps REGIME is trying to weaken Canada so he can Annex us!!!\nThat will never happen most Americans disagree with Trump more than half now after what has happened in the news lately!!\nThank you Mr.Trudeau for an eloquent,intelligent response to Trumps DUMB plan.After decades of good relations between our nations Trump has chosen Putin’s playbook\nCanadians and the world now are BOYCOTTING the once upon a time Ally Our neighbour America!!\nThis will not play out well for Americans Canadians or Mexicans \n??????

Sorry Canada. your not alone. a concerned American.

Canada, as an American, I am so sorry! This government does NOT represent all of us. I am embarrassed at how this is being handled by my government. It is bullying, it is wrong. I am so sorry.

I'd move to Canada but I'm pretty sure Americans aren't welcome there any more. Who can blame them?

I am an American. I am also reasonable and polite. I didnot vote for #47 or support any of his policies, but will suffer the consequences of his pyscopathy along with so many others. Thank you for showing the world what integrity looks like. I stand with Canada.

Well we cant go to Canada now if your passport says American, i guess Mexico will be next, those islands off our coast are looking better and better to live

As an American, I stand with Canada, Mexico, and the Ukraine. Donald is a wanna-be dictator and needs to be impeached immediately.

I’m an American standing with Ukraine and Standing with canada

American here. Respect to Canada! Do what you need to do to protect Canada. No hard feelings here. America is gonna hafta learn a lesson.

Everyone I speak to in the UK stands with Canada. We must do what’s right and stand up to the bully boy tactics from USA and Russia. Sad for Americans who didn’t vote for this seeing their country go this way.

As an American, I am rooting for you Canada. Give us a black eye. We need it

DEAR PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU, I AGREE THAT THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT HAS NOT BEEN FAIR TO ITS ALLIEDS AND TRADING PARTNERS AND THAT WE HAVE TO ACT IMMEDIATELY AGAINST THE UNITED STATES. \n\nI HAVE TO SAY, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY CANADA OR EUROPE EVER TRUST THE UNITED STATES WITHOUT HAVING SOME CONTINGENCY PLAN, KNOWING THE KIND OF TRAITOROUS MENTALITY AMERICAN GOVERNMENTS HAVE ALWAYS HAD, THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR POCKETS AND MAKING MONEY AT THE EXPENSE OF THE WEAK AND THE GULLIBLE COMMERCIAL AND POLITICAL PARTNER. \n\nONE THING I DISAGREE....., THAT IS CALLING THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT MURDEROUS, WHEN IN FACT IT WAS NATO AND ITS BRIGHT IDEA OF ANNEXATION OF UKRAINE TO NATO KNOWING THAT THEY WOULD BE BREAKING AGREEMENTS ESTABLISHED DURING THE COLD WAR OF NO PROLIFERATION OF NATO, IN FACT, NATO STARTED BREAKING THAT PACT WHEN IT ANNEXED FINLAND AND ESTONIA. RUSSIA KEPT QUIET, BUT NOW NATO TRIES TO ANNEX UKRAINE, THAT WAS THE LAST STRAW FOR RUSSIA, BESIDES THE BLATAN MISTREATMENT OF RUSSIAN-UKRAINIANS BY THE UKRAINIAN GOVERNMENT. \n\nNATO USES DEMOCRACY AS A PUNCH LINE, WHEN WE ALL KNOW THIS IS A DIRTY WAR FUELLED BY ECONOMIC INTERESTS AND GREED!\n\nMR. PRIME MINISTER, DO YOU KNOW WHO THE MURDERER IS?.....IT'S MR. ZELENSKY WHO HAS ANNIHILATED THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF ITS OWN PEOPLE, UKRAINIANS WHO WERE USED AS CANNON FODDER....AND NATO THE INSTIGATORS OF THIS WAR.\n\nTHE WORLD CANNOT BE THAT BLIND TO NOT SEE IT!!!

As a Brit I say bravo to Canada - do the American public understand how toxic Trump is. It's just crazy!

Look at all the comments of everyone on here that have no idea about politics or finances. I am pretty sure he put in his resignation because he failed canada and its people. But hey we have Americans on here complaining and of course caring about another country rather than their own.

I am a Canadian and I love America and the American people. I hope we can put this behind us sooner rather than later there is no need for any tension between us. We always have each other‘s back. With that said, I would like to see Canada step up to certain obligations, including with NATO, but as far as a trade work goes, this is not good.

If we read how trump speak about governor Trudeau it's cleat Trump wants to make canada and Mexico the Ukraine of the north America! Maybe it's time to hit back at trump/VANCE AND CUT THE ELECTRICITY AND OIL OF ALBERTA RIGHT NOW ! AND KICK THOSE 2 CLOWNS OUT OF THE WHITE WHITE HOUSE CAUSE AMERICANS WILL SUFFER JUST LIKE US WITH THOSE STUPID TARRIFS

As an American, I will stand with Canada, Ukraine, and NATO. Our true allies and friends. Trump is, unfortunately, a Russia useful idiot.

for Canada to even act on the baseless fentanyl accusation of that moron is just feeding to his ego, apart from addressing the american people and that moron AHEAD of the canadian people just appear you are agreeing to his claim of america first! NEXT time address your people first then america second if not third or fourth jeeez

Canada, Germany is proud of you❤ \nand I´m proud of the amazing comments from the lovely Americans, who see the truth of the face of Trump. He is the wolf in sheeps cloth

I'm an American. I stand with America... And this is called negotiation, deal with it. Trudeau is a stepped down un popular leader in Canada.

I am an American and I fully support Canada in this. Our leadership here is broken.

I'm an American. I stand with America... And this is called negotiation, deal with it. Trudeau is a stepped down in popular leader in Canada. ?

Hate to tell you Justin but we got what you're selling. America needs to become independent in energy and agriculture. America needs to support its own farmers, and oil and gas workers. Its time for America to become America again! You are crazy if you live in America and don't support American manufacturing, Farmers, oil and gas workers. Maybe you should move to Canada if you don't agree with America first.

You have more to worry about Russia/China threatening US/Canada in the waters around Alaska. We need to work with Canada on national security. This is crazy. President Trump, what are you hiding? Why are you doing this? You owe this to Americans and Canadians and Mexico.

You said it all in the beginning of your speech. Donald is attached to Putin. They have a goal for this idiotic plan to alienate Canada. We Americans do not want affiliation with Russia or Fascism.

The US almost sounds like Gilead. I’m so sad for Americans. I am a North American Indigenous person and live in Canada. Trump says he wants to make America great again and has only hurt the American people.

This guy is so weak. Don't he know that we Americans don't need Canada to survive. We are Americans not Canadians we vote for Trump not this dude. He should only address the Citizens of Canada. Americans are listening to his propaganda, some old jargon, business as usual conversation. America first!

American in Poland. I stand with Canada, Europe and Ukraine. That clown is going to isolate the USA and start WW III

Take notes Donald, this is how our (American) president wants him to be. Stand your ground Canada, we are in this war together.

As a American I find the actions of Vladimir Trump absolutely disgusting! I didn't vote for that scumbag! I live right across the st Lawrence river from Canada and I love that country as well!!!

Thank you for your caring and concern. Canada is appreciated and loved by more Americans than you can imagine.

As an American, I stand with Canada.
