Let me understand this. Trump is pressuring Europe to help their neighbors like Ukraine but here in the US Trump is throwing Canada away. How does this make sense? Trump speaks out of both sides of his mouth. I too stand with Canada

God help us all. I refuse to get angry at Americans but that orange insane lunatic is off his rockers. Impeach him plz

I believe you, Mr. TRUDEAU. We Americans who DO NOT SUPPORT our Administration's policies are crying and angry to see our country falling apart and the citizens who need the most help, are concerned about our welfare. ???? God help us all.

We don’t dislike American people; we dislike Donald Trumps attitude towards Canada! ?? \n\nWe’ve already started to boycott American food & other products in our grocery stores! \n\n“Canadians are reasonable, and we are polite; but we will not back down from a fight . \n\nThere are no winners in a trade war!”\n~Justin Trudeau\n\nAmericans know that the issue is tRump & not the American people!\n\nGod help us all!

Trudeau must go! What a shameful display of his childishness. So creepy, so smug. Please God help us all.

Our allies help protect the US just as we help to protect them. \nTrump think US can stand along, how dumb can one be to think such!\nAmerica brace yourself for a rough, rocket ride! Trump is trying to destroy this country!

Elegant. Intelligent. Accurate. This is what America needs in a leader. When are his followers going to understand his goal is to destroy. He will do nothing to help those of us not in his Millionaire Boys Club.

As a Canadian I am shocked that very few Americans seem to care at what Trump is doing to their country. It's not the tariffs on all of the US's former allies but that he has dumped its allies to appease Trumps good friend Putin. I am looking at dismay watching the US go from being the leader of the free world to just another dictatorship run by billionaires, America is Russia. It's up to you America to stop this, no one is going to come to help you. Good luck you are going to need it.

Mr Trudeau, most Americans are with you 100%. We don’t want this, it’s ridiculous. Please know this Trump action is not the will of the American people. He acts alone and with stupidity that cannot be explained. We love Canada, Mexico, Europe, and all our allies. I feel we are being held hostage by one man and his sycophant cult. Please help us. ?

Something I don't understand. If tariffs on goods coming into the US hurt US citizens. Wouldn't a tariff on things coming into Canada hurt Canadians? How does this help you? What harm does it bring to the president?

God help us so many Americans are against Trump!

American here, and I know that I don’t speak for all of us, but THERE IS A HELL OF A LOT OF US THAT DO NOT WANT THIS EITHER! Probably more of us that don’t want it, than there are that do! Help us!!! Please, God!!! Help us!!

Trudeau you stick to your own country. \nWe elected Trump. Let us worry about us. \nStart helping your own. \nGood luck, Canadaians. We want to help you rid yourself of him.❤❤loves from America

Very well said Justin. Living here in the USA this is very disturbing and very disappointing. I stand with outside countries more than I do here. I am praying for you. ?? Lord, please help us all.

So much ego and greed…no compassion or moral sense! Lord help us all ??

Wow - That reason that was quoted was never shared with us down here... It was always explained as a way to help our economy... Which everyone down here with a brain knew was a outright lie.... But that was what the fool kept repeating to all of us. Never once was it made or stated as a serious reason, fentanol... That was the Mexico excuse...

A very impressive and powerful delivery. \nOh, how we need God to help us!

From America, thank you. If it takes breaking us to help our democracy survive, please continue to hold strong. I both thank you and applaud you.

This is insane! America stands with our allies. ALWAYS. I cannot believe this crap is happening! TRUMP NEEDS TO LEAVE THE WHITE HOUSE! Americans do not want this and do not agree with this dame PRESIDENT! GOD HELP US!

Don't tell me your admitting to creating a surveillance state along the candadian us border. Dumbass. Help out with the whole Mexican thing if you really want fentanyl off the earth

The gaslighting the world is displaying is unbelievable. The moment America starts to look out for itself, like a toxic partner or lover, the world is responding by making us look like the problem. Not the people who have taken advantage of us. We have been the world's savior for 100 years, where is the gratitude? We aren't just going to shutter our doors to the world, we are rebuilding our country from the last corrupt administration. We love our allies, we just want to help our American people first for a change! Your countries all look out for yourselves, we are doing the same for a while. We aren't your enemies, don't treat us as such just for taking care of ourselves.

Thank you Mr. President! Nothing but respect! You are a class act, a fine example of what a man with character and common sense should act like… Trump is very jealous because he’s such a toddler constantly throwing temper tantrum‘s, he has no respect for anyone not even himself. Most of us stand with Canada and agree with you… It’s unfortunate we have a common criminal sitting in our oval office… God help us all ????

European here. Let’s trade, let’s help Ukraine defend itself, and let’s cut out the toxic US.

We need to ask if there is some kind of explanation for Trump to be doing everything possible to help Russia and damage the US! This is a very grave situation!

I’m convinced Trump wants to kill the US. He’s doing everything possible to help Russia at the expense of America. Is it because Putin is blackmailing Trump, is it because Trump is a Russian mole, is it because he ?is being paid by Putin? Who knows? But unless he is impeached, and impeached soon, American may never recover.

I am American independent voter who vote against Treasonous Trump this past election of 2024 in favor of Kamala Harris. While many of my fellow Americans voted for Trump many others like me did not. Now so many good and event Americans are going to suffer because of many Maga or Maga supporting Americans who foolishly chose to support Trump and his lies. Any pain and suffering Anti Trump supporting Americans, along international American Allies and theuir people, suffer will be squarely on the shoulders of Maga and Maga supporting Americans.\n\nHow Trumps first term wasn’t a wake up call and eye opener to how terrible he was and is as president is beyond me. He, treasonous Trump, did nothing to help our economy which essentially stalled or went into generally neutral state with essentially no growth positively or negatively, followed by a near complete nose dive due to Treasonous Trump’s poor handling and equally poor response to the Covid-!9 Pandemic. How people could seemed to forget that Treasonous Trump, not Joe Biden, was responsible for the current sate of things following the pandemic is beyond me. \n\nMaga and Maga supporting Americans have been conned again by Treasonous Trump, who not only failed to properly respond to the Covid pandemic but also incited and or encouraged many of Maga supporters to essentially attack the US Capitol in hopes of stopping Joe Biden’s Presidential Certification. Those in the Inter national world are not alone in their condemnation of the disgrace and embarrassment that sis current US President Trump. True Americans who believe in our constitution and rule of law as decreed by the founding fathers of our nation must unfortunately bare part of the shame Maga America has brought upon our country as a whole.Truly good and decent Americans must bare the shame of now living in a country that much International world now no longer trusts and has lost respect for. For all the hateful Maga thinking and or supporting Americans there are as many truly good non maga Americans who want more peaceful relations with allies in the international world. Sadly because of Trump and his hate many must now unjustly suffer .

Trudeau \nwill you help stop ilegal traffic in to the US? may be too late...\nThe US will start manufacturing \nimprove agriculture and hopefully enforce the law, jus get with the program, no woke folks welcome....

God help us Americans who are stuck with this horrible president. I'm with our allies. No Trump and no Putin. OMGOSH, we are in deep trouble here in the US.

Ah. Save us somehow. I want to help my own people, but also just escape this nightmare.

As American, We can’t help neighbors who don’t want to help us stop murdering our citizens with drugs. America shall stay strong and have victory because they doing what’s right and fair. God bless America and president Trump.

FROM ANOTHER AMERICAN: Dear Canada, \nShut us down. \nShut down the crude oil. \nShut down the natural gas. \nShut down the electricity. \nAnd tear that starlink contract up like confetti. I will donate a disco ball and help you toss all the little pieces in the air. ? \nShut. Him. Down. \nSincerely, \nAn American who wants to get this shit over with so we can go back to being best friends again. ?

Paula Newton, how dare you use the phrase anti-americanism! This is one of the most emotionally contained and dignified responses do the bullying president of the United States that I've heard so far. Trudeau has every right to be as pointed as he wants. I hate what Trump is doing and I live here! Trump doesn't speak for me. I have friends in Canada. Canadians are absolutely welcomed to help us do something to rein in the power of the dictator in training, Trump.

Putin economy is collapsing, US Trump want to bring down all who help Ukraine.

Help us from this orange tyrant?

As an American I'm 60 yrs old. And I totally agree With Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau 1000%. I never wanted Trump. And let's make this clear by all means. To those that voted for his dumb ass I hope u you got what you wanted. HE DOES NOT GIVE A CRAP BOUT AMERICA ONLY PUTIN WHO WITH TRUMP BEING THE ULTIMATE ASS KISSER TO HIM TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY AND THE PEOPLE WITHIN IT. GOD HELP US ALL. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY. TRUMP IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF.

Americans are owned by their new King Vladimir Putin now. And China. This is all to help China and Russia. \nWhen will CNN even fkn MENTION \nTHE 200-500 THOUSAND INDIVIDUAL MILITARY GRADE WEAPONS US MANUFACTURERS SELL TO DRUG CARTELS EVERY YEAR ? \nYOUR CORRUPT OFFICIALS TAKING PART I. TRAFFICKING THE DRUGS. DID YOU EVEN REPORT THE ALABAMA CASE OF THE 5 cops and a spouse. Including the CHIEF OF POLICE Using the Evidence room as their drug supply ??\nHUH. ?\n\nCNN ????????

A message to Trudeau. Put an export tax on the Oil and Electricity sold to the United States. Open up new European Markets for Oil and Natural Gas product and sell directly to Europe and Japanese markets. China needs oil, there is plenty of market around the world for our products. The Tariff's imposed by Trump is only going to make product to the US more expensive for their own citizens, and with Tariff's on all American imports, if they can't make it, or they don't have the raw materials to make it themselves, they will have to pay more. It is not necessary to impose Tariff's on USA Products to penalize Canadians, but Canadians will find new markets to replace the US, and we won't even notice it happened. We have alternatives. The southern islands are great vacation locations, and with the weather disasters they have suffered over the past few years, they could use the tourist support to help rebuild, and, their people are friendly and don't carry guns.

To the world- please help us!!!\nAn American citizen

It took “two” evil greedy men to bring about destruction, only God can help us, people need to earnestly pray not just now but always.

Can you Canadians maybe ask your King to have his other countries put tariffs on us down here in the US? What's the point of having one if you don't ask him for a little help when bad guys come after you. My country needs to learn a lesson and the faster it happens, the less pain there is for everyone.

Its so sad?? God help us a mad man is hurting all of the World pray everyone pray hard for Gods intervention....we love Canadian neighbors ...true Christians never act lime this never?????

Que pouvons-nous faire pour aider, nous les aînés ? Nous ne pouvons travailler 40 heures/semaine, mais nous sommes encore capables d'aider notre pays. What can we do, us elderly people to help? We can't work 40 hours/week but we can still help our country.

But Trump promised you a golden era he didnt say for who....apparently for the working middle class- .its looking less shiny for you, ?? Things are going to cost more for all.of us, well- now in Canada our eggs are now cheaper as we have to shop by bus! The Bourbon is off the shelves, and I maybe need to make a new list for help from Santas elves; His billionaire pals, tho will be entering that new golden age, and chumming with Putin to try and appease any Russian rage ! The Donald has acted and now we all pay, the skies today in North America all grey.

Make that make sense!!! Help us lord ?

God help us. I have never seen anything so terrible in my 76 years from any US President. I stand with Canada, UK, Ukraine, and Europe and all our NATO allies that we used to have as friends.

Canada, please HELP us get him out!!!

WOW! A real leader, actually leading his country with its best interest in mind! I am so ashamed to be an American right now. Can someone please save us!!!! HELP!!!!!

I am an American living in the deep blue Northeast US and I stand with you, Mr. Trudeau! Feel free to annex us if you want. I'll help!

Thank you Canada for being our Ally and friend. We are devastated how our allies are getting treated by our oligarchy administration. Lord help us.
