From the Midwest U.S, I support Canada and Mexico! We don’t want tariffs. We want ALL our economy to prosper! Not to crash them down! Otherwise, if we place tariffs, ALL OF US will be hurt. ALL COUNTRIES. ALL citizens regardless of income levels will feel it. \n\nRising egg prices? Just tonight (as of the evening of March 4) he blames it on Biden and the administration when he’s not even the president! I cannot believe we voted for a president who points fingers rather than taking accountability. \n\nAs an American, I only want to apologize to the world for voting for this bully (I never voted for him, but he won anyways.) I wish you all the best.

He’s a big man talking from Canada,but the truth is he’s in trouble without the US ,And we voted our leaders in..

Illinois stands with Canada.????

I'm ashamed to say that our president is an absolute traitor to our allies and to its people. Somehow his cult followers were able to get him back into office instead of prison. Now all of us are having to suffer please do not lose faith we will figure out a way to get rid of the Trump regime once and for all as well as Elon Musk were so sorry about what they've done there will be payback for them for many levels just know that the United States people love Canada always have always will one of our greatest allies and our good neighbor. Sorry about Donald Trump he's a prick

These tariffs weren't new news n youre using them as a smoke screen because u cant beat the conservatives so youll try n aim at trump. Youre taxes hurt canada more than trump ever could

As an American, I am ashamed and appalled. Please, Canada, please, know that many stand with you and support boycotts of the US.

Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean. Let's staying united as one nation \nCanada ?? ? ?? Canada is strong nation

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!!?

i’m an american. i stand with canada

As per the result of the Four Nations Faceoff Championship game, the US is hereby to be known as the 11th province of Canada. So how could a province impose tariffs on its own country ?

?Canada ?? ? Thailand people

Not surprised at the amount of treasonous morons in this comment section, siding with foreign leaders that have been ripping us off for decades. Canada already imposes tariffs on US products, now they are adding additional taxes, when all they had to do is lower (better yet, eliminate) their current ones. I guess progressives like being taxed to hell.

As a U.S. citizen, my full support to you Canada- but going forward please emphasize that the Trump administration is choosing to start this trade war -not America-millions of us do not support or want to be associated with that tyrant in the White House!

As much as I like the message, I just find this is a waste of time to rationalize or reasoning with the orange clown and his uneducated base, like the clown said himself that he loves his uneducated supporters. Just return the favour. That's it. You can't fix stupid. Canada just needs to find more reliable and trust worthy partners. As much as I hate to say, US government can't be trusted. \n\nHey donald, little petty man with small hands. Glad that your trump towers in Toronto and Vancouver failed. You now try to avenge but you are making dumb mistakes to let personal touchy feelings to interfere with country affairs.

Mr Trudeau what Trump is doing to Canada is part of his vengeance tour. You didn’t show him the respect he thinks he deserves ?! He doesn’t care who he hurts including the US who he claims to make great again.

Donald Trump has plan to invade Canada, Mexico and other countries in South America. If he will do it no Russia will support him that why he started make friend with Putin.

Trump makes Canada have the balls again.

F around and find owt. I stand w Canada ?!

Canada!!!❤❤ The world is with you!! A true leader speaking!!

Support canada from Philippines??????

I wish we had an adult for a leader like Canada.

Can i immigrate please to Canada? I am American that supports Canada.

Dear Canada, most of us who have half a brain, are disgusted about not only tariffs but everything else that is being destroyed. Hopefully, this will pass with upcoming Administrations. We love Canada and it's people. thank you for your patience.

Good for you Prime Minister Trudeau and Canada

I am an American, and I support and stand by Canada. Do not back down. We can make the sacrifice for as long as it takes to right the wrongs.

O CANADA??

I’m a 53 year old Canadian. I went to college on an athletic scholarship & lived there for 10 years after turned professional in my sport. Why, why, why - with all the problems going on in the world right now to tackle - why would you want to start a trade war with your closest trading partner & most loyal ally? Not to mention that your list of Allies is shrinking daily. This is not going to end well for either of us. \nI just arrived home from a trip to the grocery store - making sure nothing in my cart said “ made in the USA” on it due to the new tariffs that began today. \nThe irony is, many of the states where Trump won by the biggest margin, are the states that are going to get hit the hardest from Canadian retaliation tariffs ( Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, the Dakotas - just to name a few). A lot of farmers in those states are going to be hit extremely hard with the fertilizer tax. After Canada, the next 3 largest Potash producers are Russia, Belarus & China. So , good luck \nWhen the cost of fruit & vegetables skyrocket across the US. Maybe you’ll put a little more thought into your vote 4 years from now.

Support Canada!

Mr Trudeau - you are 100 % right .... I have been a citizen of the USA for my entire life of 67 years.... now I really wish that I was born in CANADA where people are compassionate and not in it ONLY for power and money. I am embarrassed to that I am a citizen of the USA (WELL... THERE'S A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING !).

I stand with Canada

From ?????? supporting Canada!!!

I'm in Botswana & I stand with Canada. Trump is captured by Putin.

Of course on CNN you guys back ukraine and Canada but are you willing to send your children to die for Ukraine I Doubt it

What did Canada gain by following the U.S. in imposing a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs? Have you think the U.S. would impose tariffs on Canada as well?

Donald will break his own arm trying to twist Justin’s arm. Canada is no Ukraine. Trump has bitten more than he can chew. Good luck Americans. Your Administrations both the current and one in the past are your worst enemies. Both the Democracy’s and the Republicans have let you down. Wake up, the world does not revolve around you.

The last trade deal with Canada and Mexico was done by the Trump Administration1.0, If it's such a bad deal, BLAME TRUMPICILE!!

? Canada!

Oh Canada????????????????????????????????????????

why is Justin even speaking? he has already resigned as the worst prime minister in our history! one last flush to get that turd to go down. election already. we are so done with you liberals destroying Canada . US tariffs =25%additional tax onto Canadians using US products =MORE TAXES to Canadians. tax me harder liberal so I can work more

Go canada

So, everyone's favorite leader of Canada failed negotiations with Trump and decided to go public by putting pressure on the American people who are paying for the whole buffet. Since when did politics and diplomacy become such an ugly mess?

Nice work ? and well spoken! I support everything you and Canada stand for! Dump the trump!

This US citizen stands with you, Canada!!

Just a guess but do you think for a second trump knew this would happen?? And he know its still the right thing to do instead of being taken advantage of? And that canada will talk tojgh amd then renegotiate? Nah not you cry baby libs. Brandon peobably wrote this speech for his teleprompter.\n\nHeres an idea. Meet with him in person and be this tough! Hmmm

Oh my god Trudeau you are so amazing I stand with you and Canada because?

From a woman from VA I stand with Canada ??

American here. Canada you do what you have to. Millions of US are behind you. ??

After the last four years of the Biden Harris administration shitshow I think we'll live! We've been going two hundred billion dollars in the hole dealing with Canada Canada.

I stand with canada…trump can go to hell now

He did a good job making it sound like the US needs Canada. It's the other way around.
