whats the big deal,us is known to ditch allies,they did it in middle east ,now it's to Europe and canada.....maybe its horrible now because white people are involved this time

Lets make new, strong and valuable bonds between Canada, Mexico and Europe to proove that we all stand for the same values compared to Donald who is obviously not sharing any of our values.

Trudeau is a clown. This is a guy who thwarts free speech and jailed his own people and took their money away during peaceful protests. Canada has enjoyed a a trade surplus against us forever. They also do not have to pay for military since they are right next to us. They should be doing whatever we want. Canada was sending recyclable trash to the Philippines. When the trash arrived it was not recyclable. Philippine president said stop sending but Canada continued to send it. So finally he said if you send one more ship, we will declare no war on you. And if that happened, without US help, even the Philippines would destroy Canada in a war. Way more fighting aged males and Canada has a worthless military. Canada has a GDP of 5-10% of US. So Trudeau acting tough is hilarious. Like a chihuahua barking at a grisly bear. If push came to shove, in the time of US war need, the US would simply take whatever it wanted from Canada. That's what happens when you don't develop your own substantial military-just like Europe now.

Unfortunately, i think that trump (he does not deserve un upercase) dreams of becoming like putin. All that he is doing, everything in his language and actions screams dictator. I think that putin dreams of having the entire Europe to himself and that trump will actually want everything around the USA which includes ofc, Canada. That was their deal. I don't understand why americans are standing by just watching things unfold. It will not get better, this can only and will get worse. Sooner than they think they will find themselves trapped under these people, with no rights. It is really hard when you are already there to actually go back to democracy.

This retired US Navy combat veteran stands w all our brother & sisters in Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, Europe, NATO, etc!\nLet’s all call him “Donald “. or Trump, ANYTHING but President ?☮️???

For trump, Canada and Europe are enemies but ruzzia is a friendly country. How can it be? How stupid some americans can be to believe in these?\ntrump is a ruzzian active agent since 2012. His now taking US as dictator.\nDon't buy any US brand or maded product, specially tesla and starlink.\nUS is enemy with trump, and will be worst. US cannot be trusted for years to come. They let ruzzian got power in their own country. They put trump in power today, and tomorrow who will be? They are only 300M people, and half are against this, lets fight this brainless people.\nI'm European, I'm with Canada.

Trump has really the potential to ruin America. America will most likely ending up as North Korea. Mexico, Canada and even China seems to turn towards Europe. America government have always been trouble and I think they should be isolated from the rest of the world. And Nato should be cancelled and Canada, Mexico and Europe should build a new Alliance with Canada, uk or Germany taking on the mission as leaders.

I am an American and I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Europe and all allies America had before Donald. At least half our country disagrees with Donald's administration, and I hope that more will join our numbers.

Hello Canada from Denmark. I am sad to see the unfair way the US is treating your country, and I am sure it will soon come to Europe too. But it will also hurt the Americans, that is for sure. It is sad because many of us have always been pro-America. But it should not be like that anymore, and believe me it will get worse. The Americans have elected a mad man with no scruples to dictate their country and we must find others to do business with instead, because it is too dangerous that America has all that power

From the UK - we stand with canada, ukraine, and the rest of europe. GO CANADA! i will not be buying anything american!

I, an American living abroad will not be traveling to the US for the next 4 years. Instead, I will take my all my trips to Canada and support their economy with my tourist dollars. I will buy Canadian made products as much as I can when I shop in my stores in Europe.

Sadly the plan for Russia ?? and China ?? it’s going well , Division among America's allies , Dividing America's allies and igniting hatred between them is what America's and Europe's enemies, China, Russia and North Korea, want. This is exactly what they want to eliminate America, which is America's isolation from its allies, Canada and Europe, for the success of the plan of China, Russia and North Korea, America is in danger, gentlemen. Making its allies like Canada and Europe abandon it will push America to confront Iran, China, Russia and North Korea alone. This is a hellish plan by China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. America is finished. Trump is a businessman, not a politician. We want to unite America's allies, not divide them. Trump will lead us Americans to hell.???????????????

Canada - Europe loves you.

To Europe and Canada- We Americans have concerns!!! As Americans we have concerns related to Putin; our hearts hurt for Ukraine- we want peace! As Americans we realize Putin is a bully, and what he did to Ukraine was evil!!?

Why the US making everyone its enemies? Europe, Canada, Middleeast, Mexico????

Russia has control of the White House. It's best that Canada, Europe, and any of the US' allies strengthen themselves because the US cannot be trusted

Trump Holds All Cards. Europe & Canada have siphoned Billions while sticking it to America on Trade!!! Its called reciprocal trade!! Whatever you tax us we tax you!! The subsidizing is over. Canadian drugs kill. Cry because we match your tax in U.S. ? ???

Europe is happy to work closer with Canada. The Commonwealth and the European Union need to work closer.

Surely Canadians are polite but not Trudeau . Trudeau is another Zelensky who is most suspicious, egoistic, double standard moron who will ultimately take Canada to Ukraine path. The west have been most cunning who befooled USSR &after its disintegration expanded NATO to Russia's boundaries. The world understand & now USA realizes that it was a mistake which started Cold War & paved way for Nuclear race. Russia has a better history than USA or Europe & specially Europe has a history of colonization. Be ware of Truedeau!?

Yo Canada. Europe would like to have an ally like you and we would love to buy gas and oil from a democratic country with a reasonable grown up leader. Interested? ❤

The fact that this clown thinks we give a sh is hysterical. So it’s ok for Canada to pay 1.3% gdp towards nato while we pay 60% and put ourselves in debt to the tune of one trillion dollars a year TO PROTECT THEM. They tariff us double or triple what we charge them but that’s supposed to be fine. Canada is a government that doesn’t give af about this country or the clueless people in this thread. Don’t believe me just do the research and see what they’ve been charging us all over Europe. Do some research and stop being ignorant about this topic. Canada is 1,3 % of our gdp. We are 60% of theirs. Do the math.

I'm a European who has been living in Canada for a while. I want to join the Canadian Army because I can see that some shit is coming, and I am ready to fight for Canada, just as my family fought in the Second World War in Europe.

Very straightforward condemnation against the Trump administration on these tariffs. Trump is looking for trouble at the expense of the citizens without thinking about the welfare of the people. Trump wants to bankrupt Canada because it has ample resources and Trump wants Canada to be the 51st state. It is quite impossible to bankrupt Canada because it can always expand its international trade to other countries, like Europe, etc. Do not tolerate the bully. Salute to Trudeau for being honest to confirm that there are no winners in this stupidity.

I hear you and are with Canada, europe and Ukrain - and the rest of the peace loving world… Unfortunately this does not include USA anymore…. So sad, but this is all due to the insanity of Trumph

Strong leadership! I stand with Ukraine, Canada and Europe!

The ultimate goal of Donald is to weaken Canada, Europe, NATO & all the democracies in the free world for his boss Putin for world hegemony, no doubt bout that!

The UK Canada and Europe will lead the free world.

I believe that Trump & Putin have a plan to dominate the world with Putin taking Europe and Trump taking Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Panana, aka the Americas. What part China & North Korea play in Asia, I don't know. But they look to be inching in this direction!

From North Carolina - standing with Canada, Ukraine, Europe.

I STAND WITH EUROPE AND CANADA AGAINST FACISM NAZIS BILLIONAIRES PRO-RUSSIAN TRAITORS OF THE FREE WORLD !

From Florida, well spoken! Show him your wrath better than you can tell him Prime Minster Trudeau! ?? Don’t be bullied by a tyrant.\nAs for my household & I, we stand with Canada ?? Ukraine ?? Europe and Mexico??

I stand with America and Trump، I believe it is the time to have a leadership to show up these countries such as Canada and Europe to depend on themselves without Americans

He only cares about tariffs trump is actively trying to save the world. If russia takes Ukraine, the whole Europe is in trouble, including Canada. We are literally the only humans in our universe that we know of, and everyone is worried about trump. He fixings something thats so little of our problems. And ps Mr. Canada is no good.

Money talks, shit walks. We shall see about Canada and the whole of Europe.

I pray Canada, Mexico, Europe, South America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia can find ways to work together and strengthen each others economies and other developments.

European here.\nIm boycotting ALL american products.\nOnly buying Canadian or European products.\nMore than ever, Europe and Canada should stand together as the beacons of Democracy for the World ?? ??

If Europe, Canada, Japan, misc SE asian countries, etc., get together, they could absolutely take over as the stabilizing force in the world. DJT is doing what he wants - very cynically, he’s happy to ruin the US so he can have control over it. Totally insane. US is a mess, liberals have indulged the crazy left so much that moderates were feeling forced to vote in rebellion- but to ultimately hurt themselves. WTF?! For sure.

Unlike the US, Canada is still a trading nation. As a result, my plan is not simply to buy Canadian, but to avoid buying American. Here's my country of origin preference list: \n1. Canada \n2. Europe/ UK \n3. rest of the world \n4. China \n5. Russia/ North Korea/ USA

As an American, this makes sense. We have always had a deficit with canada and Europe. Trump wants that to end, and America is always stronger on its own. As much as I like our neighbors in Canada, your government is trash and has been trashing your country. You guys need your own donald

Go Canada!!!! we all stand with you well done. So now Tariffs from Canada and China, next will be Europe and Australia will stop all imports from the US Hopefully, Trump will cause a recession on the world

Im hopeful for a stronger Canada-Europe trade relationship coming from this. Canadians have always been well regarded here, so I welcome a stronger partnership with less hurdles in trade and travel.

US will the only loser here , Canada doesn't need US trade but the US needs Canadian resources that can't be replaced by any other Country , this is going to be good for Canada we needed this, free trade with EU and Asia , huge NG contracts with Europe ,our softwood lumber can be gobbled up by Europe and Asia , going to build our own pipe lines and refineries and sell gas and oil at a higher price . 10 yrs from now Canada will be one of the riches Countries in the World !!!

Pretty sure Trump will turn it around in 2 weeks time and will say it's Canada that placed the tariffs on US, Mexico, Europe. :) ........ Watch.

Standing with Canada, Ukraine and Europe. Stand up against bullying from dictators. From Singapore.

Canada doesnt have much production at home. they will be getting goods from Europe now and other countries paying on the top more then 40% just for logistical purposes . Canadians... everything will come from your own pocket. Think about it.

I’m in tears. Mr. Trudeau, thank you for supporting the US citizens as we try to figure out what we can do to get our friends back. I’d give anything to be a Maple Leaf if I can’t have my country back. I love Canada because they’ve always welcomed me. The people are freaking amazing and kind. I love our allies because we look out for each other. Canada, Mexico, Europe, Ukraine, etc., the American people love you and don’t want this insanity - not just liberal-minded people like me, but most all of us. Love to you all!

The biggest fear that D Trump has is that China becomes as strong as them. He uses Russia as his ally to physically threaten China. It's now time for the rest of the world to show that his plan can backfire. I think Europe and Canada should strengthen their free trade and investments with China (but make sure that they won't physically annex Taiwan). By making China stronger, Trump will finally realize the value of old friends and how dumb his plans were.

Ill maks it make sense. The usa cannot fight a 2 prong war. Europe needs to focus on Russia while usa focuses on china. It was proven a year ago that if we fought with both. We would run out of ammo in 2 weeks. We are competing with china now. Not Europe not Canada not mexico. China!

To Canada: Europe is waiting to do business with you, with wide open arms.
