Love to See Canada as a EU member !!\nFrom Germany

The US has literally painted itself in a corner. I hope Canada is close to a deal with the EU. Europe is more trustable than America.

Canada, please join the EU. Your values are ours.

Alright, bring Canada into the EU.

❤ Canada. We, the sane, non-MAGAt Americans, also do not want this, nor did we vote for this because we did NOT vote for an obviously mentally ill, functionally illiterate, elderly man with signs of dementia, whose main function besides destroying our country to enrich himself & all of his millionaire & billionaire buddies, is acting as a useful idiot pain for Putin. We, the Americans who value what our country has stood for, whose fathers & and grandfathers fought in both World Wars, who lived in the time before all of the current vaccines existed, who believe in equality, who value the immigrants--documented or undocumented, who believe our country should welcome them & make their paths to citizenship easier because we understand how our country & economy benefit from them living in this country, who understand & value the roles that the WHO, NATO, & the United Nations have played in keeping us ALL safer for many decades bc we REMEMBER or were told by our parents, what it was like b4 those things existed, who either lived thru The Great Depression or had parents & grandparents did, understand what the economic crisis that Trump & his band of greedy ahole idiots are deliberately causing. WE didn't do this. WE fought against it. We tried to explain & warn people about what is happening & what will happen, but you didn't EFFING LISTEN. WE are ANGRY. WE will NOT help any of you who caused this & this includes every MSM who is too afraid to speak truth to power. Start doing that NOW. Start with THIS: It's called The Gulf of Mexico, NOT the Gulf of America. Eff every Trump supporters & GOP politician--at EVERY level of government. Trump can TRY to hide what he's doing to the economy in his stupid reports. Do you honestly believe the average American pays attention to those? No, most are too busy worrying over how to pay their bills & all they'll see is that their situation is getting worse. They can't find a job. They can't afford gas. They can't afford groceries. You can't cover any of that up. WE stand with Canada, Ukraine, the EU, & every other ally nation. Not Russia. Putin can go straight to hell & the sooner the better.

Stop insulting our President! We are no longer woke communist like Trudeau and the EU, and we are focusing on us, as the world does not appreciate all we do and we are far from perfect here. President Trump is one of the great Presidents that made America and Canada so successful in the past, and all these socialist a$$bags can do is cry and get in the way of progress! We are the superpower of the world for a reason and you’re on the wrong path my Canadian friends! Watch you ? mouth long story short!

Canada should join the EU. And one more thing: Donald is not smart.

Canada, Consider joining the EU. We don't need the US.

Canada, just join the EU. We are happy to have you as one more member of our family

Come on Canada.. its time Americas allies give America back a little.\nThey can have Russia and North Korea.\n\nThe UK, EU, Canada, Australia, and China can get together and have our own agreements

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau. I support Canada from Tennessee. I despise the MAGA/Fascist/Trump movement. Prime Minister Trudeau, please put a 100% tariff on Tesla and anything associated with anything Musk. I hope the EU will cease using Space X and anything else Musk.

SPAIN???? FIRMLY SUPPORTS CANADA??, and so do the rest of EU member states. We truly feel Canada as if it was another European sister nation.\nSTAY STRONG, DEAR CANADIANS???. Us Europeans admire you deeply!!! Europe will always stick up for you guys??♥️??\nBig hug from Madrid?

I don't understand why the land of the free America has launched a trade war on its allies whilst sucking up to a murdering gangster in the Kremlin - I applaud Trudeau on his powerful speech against the malignant orange blob in the Oval Office - We in Europe back Canada against a MAGA fascist regime - We will boycott US business in solidarity with Canada - The EU & the UK will support you - The land of the free is not the USA.

Canada needs to get together with EU, Mexico, UK, Australia, Japan, etc. to prevent depression. Together we can manage through these dark times. EU countries will buy ALL of the oil, gas and minerals that Canada can sell. Europe is energy and resource hungry.

As a German, I would say I would be happy to have Canada in the EU...????? the blond in the White House is setting the whole world on fire. Alliances that existed for decades... kicked in the ass... sad... especially as a neighbor like Canada

As an American, Canada do not back down. EU, do not back down. We get what Trump Elon and Vance along with the MAGA Republicans are doing. We apologize for this respectfully. However hard it becomes on us, we know this entire administration is to blame. Please stay strong in democratic diplomacy. Know many Americans support what needs to be done. I support Ukraine

Let Trump and his MAGA morons rot in hell! We in Europe stand with Canada ! Why not join up in a EU-CAN union !

I hope Canada and the EU can get closer, and set up trade of most of our natural resources with them BEFORE Trump get yelled at to change things so theyre extra screwed. I also dont understand why the USA is so hell bent on making Russia happy and their Allies angry, is the USA and RUSSIA the new Allies? Dont Americans find this unnerving??!?!?!?! This is all goijng to make China the new real SuperPower on its own with a ton of Soft Power while they continue to ramp up development around the world and the USA is being gutted by a business man and his unelected NAZI buddy Elon....so weird...!

Canada, join the EU and leave Nafta (or whatever is called now). Mexico, join BRICS and leave Nafta (or whatever is called now. EU, suspend US membership from NATO and close European bases in the continent.

Full support to canadian people but not these 3 jokers. what trump is doing is not good, even india is not acting like this when bangladesh is operating like a rabid dog, however what real canadians should understand is that their country's current situation is because of this 3 jokers. Canada should appoint leaders that has atleast some basic understanding of geopolitics. Look at india right after meeting trump last week it has signed several deals with the EU, and even finalizing FTA with it by the end of this year. There was suppose to be a FTA with canada aswell but these jokers supported criminal illegals from india which india wanted back to face justice but these jokers defended those guys and even threatened indian diplomats, so even now you guys have time, exercise your democratic power and throw these three boogers and illegals out of your county. And plese don't overuse marijuana before the election day because its a very important day for you guys.. you guys need to be atleast 60% concious when you cast your vote, because i fear some of you might vote the wrong person After that enjoy your weed as much as you like. BEST of luck my canadian friends?

US citizen. My vote to Canada, Mexico, EU, nd any other country that may get affected by this BOZO (Trump) of an individual.

We need to welcome Canada into the EU.

Canada should join the EU

Ideal Repercussions: Canada, Mexico, EU form new trade alliance and stop trading with the US until you LEARN TO BEHAVE YOURSELVES.

Once a blessing, now a curse. Who wants the Americans on their side these days? Putin suffers from the same problem as Canada and the EU are: Every 4 years America's policy can radically turn against you.

Canada, welcome to the EU

Canada, America, and Mexico should form a Union based on the EU model.

America first canada first. EU ALSO FIRST NO WAY WE NEED AMERICA ??????

I’m: from Germany and we should welcome Canada to the European Community, we have so much more in common with Canada than we have with some of the countries in the EU, sabotaging the EU.

Please expand your LNG capacities and sell it to Europe. Canada and the EU should focus on expanding their relations.

Canada is already heading into an economic crisis, and what Trudeau just did might be the final nail in the coffin. This is his last big mistake — and he’ll soon blame Trump’s policies to cover up his own failures.\n\nLet’s be clear: Trump’s tariff policies aren’t some random attack — they’re based on a simple reality: The U.S. doesn’t need Canada. Here’s why:\n\nEconomy Size Comparison:\n\nU.S. GDP (2024): Over $28 trillion\nCanada GDP (2024): Around $2.3 trillion\nThe U.S. economy is more than 12 times larger than Canada’s — the leverage is completely one-sided.\nTrade Imbalance:\n\n75% of Canadian exports go straight to the U.S. — Canada’s economy depends on the American market to survive.\nMeanwhile, only around 12-15% of U.S. exports go to Canada. The U.S. can replace Canadian goods easily through Mexico, Europe, or Asia, but Canada has no backup plan for losing U.S. access.\nPopulation and Consumer Base:\n\nU.S. population: Over 330 million\nCanada: Around 40 million\nThe U.S. is 8 times the market size, meaning American businesses would always prioritize the U.S. market over Canada.\nNatural Resources & Energy:\n\nCanada’s oil, gas, and timber exports rely heavily on U.S. buyers.\nThe U.S. is already the world’s top producer of oil and gas thanks to its shale industry — it can easily survive without Canadian energy.\nCanada, on the other hand, would struggle to find new customers fast enough to avoid collapse.\n\nDefense & Global Influence:\nThe U.S. holds dozens of trade agreements with major powers like the EU, Japan, South Korea, and Mexico.\nCanada’s economy relies heavily on U.S. investment, which could be cut off or redirected if necessary.\nBottom line: Trudeau is dragging Canada into a crisis of his own making. He’s gambling with his country’s economic future, knowing full well that in any economic war with the U.S., Canada loses — fast. When the fallout hits, Trudeau will shift the blame to Trump, but the facts are clear: Canada needs the U.S. far more than the U.S. needs Canada.

As an American, I want to add my voice to those of other Americans who stand in support of Canada, the EU and Ukraine. Our current occupant of the Oval Office is an embarrassment to those of us who are true patriots. Let the trolls say what they will to express their ignorance, for who in their right mind can support this turncoat.

Canada in the EU ??

Irishman here, well done Canada for standing up to the bully.. Great speech... The EU will gladly trade with you....????....

Canada for EU ❤

America and Trump and Elon are done.\n\nThe EU with Canada and other allys are more suffisticated, technicolly further nd far more intelligent than Trump Elon and thet voters.\n\nCome on America.\n\nImpeach Trump.\n\nMake America Great Again.?

Hey Canada, feel welcome to the EU - it's a better place to deal with!

Canada should join the EU.

Canada should join EU.

What % of phentonol does the US say comes in from Canada? Canada say 1%. Tariffs are unjustified if it’s that low. I think it’s kick the small boy so bigger boys like the EU are more flexible. Trump said EU VAT ‘tariff’ to USA. Does he not realise VAT is a purchase tax applied to all = internal products, and anything from all countries.

Trump's Import Tariffs Are To Combat a Non-Existing Problem \n \nThe import tariffs that US President Donald Trump has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China are meant to combat a non-existent problem, economics editor Jonathan Witteman recently analysed. Trump sees the structural trade deficit (the difference between the export and import of goods and services) that the United States has with almost all of its trading partners as a sign of weakness. Contrary to almost all political left-wing and also right-wing economists, he believes that a trade deficit is bad for a country's economy and believes that the US is being cheated by countries that export more to the US than they import. \n \n'I have said that the EU must make up for its enormous deficit with the US by purchasing our oil and gas on a large scale. If not, punitive tariffs will follow', Trump said last December, for example, about the trade balance between the US and the European Union. \n \nA connection between a bad economy and having a trade deficit cannot be found, political economy professor Andres Freytag concludes in the analysis. There are many countries in the world, such as Germany, with a trade surplus but a poorly performing economy. The opposite is more likely to be true: in countries with a trade surplus, more people are unemployed. This was shown by the Peterson Institute. \n \nTrump's tariffs are more dangerous for the economy, because they reduce imports and exports, partly because other countries in turn impose punitive tariffs in response. Trump's announced import tariffs during his first term even led to a larger trade deficit and to 7.2 billion dollars in welfare losses in the US.

Fun Fact: All the EU and Canada have no term limits for their prime ministers/premier, just like in Russia!

I am so ashamed as an American and as a human being. I am so very sorry for all of this BS. And Americans are all going to be sorry because of what’s happening in Washington right now. We are all going to suffer. Canada, please keep doing everything you can to work with the UK and the EU and all allies to make the world work while the US sinks into a quagmire of squalor, no long the leader of the free world. ???

If I was Canada I would put the army on standby. I don't trust the US at all. \nThey will come for your assets just like they said about Greenland and how they wanted to get assets of Ukraine. \nSame with Russia for the EU.\nAlthough Russia is small/overrated player.

?Thanks our PM Justin Trudeau ?? One of the greatest leaders in the world? Let's stand for Canada and EU together and stronger than ever! ?? ?? ?????♥️?

Trudeau is the most impressive leader of the Western world. If only Canada could join the EU.
