Great admiration for Canada led by a real mature leader n contrast to a convicted felon con man who hasn't the first idea of how to behave. The Jello-brained Americans voted for this excrement - live with the consequences. Kharma sucks!

This American stands with Canada.

This is less than an anti-American thing than an Ant-Trump thing. The American people aren't the enemy of Canada. Trump is the enemy of not just Canada...but the world except Putin

Yup Canadian here and right now I’d like to send every made in America item be pulled from our shelves. Wth were people thinking when they voted that knuckle head Trump in? He is causing worldwide chaos and America WILL NOT come out better. You will stand alone in the end. Too bad the better Americans are getting caught up in the hate and anger from this idiot’s decisions. ?‍♀️ ? Canada is not for sale!!!!!?? ❤

This is hard to live through, as an American who didn't vote for that fat slob. I stand with Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine.

As an American, I stand with Canada.

Make it hurt, Canada. I stand with you. We Americans deserve this. Tesla also deserves 100% tariff. The only way Americans win is if we lose this stupid tariff war.

As an American, I support Canada 100%. There’s no rationale for these tariffs—only Trump’s ego. Call his bluff. Make it hurt. We need all the help we can get to dislodge Trump from power.

All I want to hear from Canada is how you are going to stop illegal drugs from coming into our country ?About time we get back to American made ??

As an American from Michigan, I Stand With Canada! Trump is despicable and an embarassment to our once great country.

As an American, I stand with Canada ??

It's too bad that Trudeau's Government did so little about fentanyl, also about our poorly-controlled border and destructive immigration non-policies for so long. Hence, driving Trump's scorched-earth policy (The Tariffs). That said, it blows me away that Trump was so vociferous about the Lawfare that was lined up against him in 2023-24, but he doesn't see that excess use of the power of the State is wrong and immoral in this Canadian and Mexican case. Trump only knows the right of might. Threats, coercion, bullying. He doesn't otherwise distinguish between right and wrong; only about what is good for him and his ego. The Tariffs will drive very bad business outcomes in the US. Including, inflation, and lost jobs. The Stock Markets are already tanking. At this particular stage, his ego will not allow him to back off, that's my prediction. Much pain for all Americans (and obviously for Canadians) will first have to ensue. Canada must receive its spanking, and Donald will have to save face. Ultimately, he'll invent some dishonest pretense to put the genie in the bottle, while the economic damage to all sides will be severe. But ... Why would he care?

Americans are with Canada and Ukraine.

I support Canada and Im embarrassed to be an American. ?????. Scott from Downtown Detroit MI.

It’s going to hurt a lot more Americans than Canadians 100% it’s time for Canada to start looking for new partners.

The UK is with you Canada. Well done. Excellent factual speech delivered directly to the American people. This is what a leader and head of state sounds like. Massive applause from London.

Our American government is pointing the finger at where the supply of fentanyl is coming from, but it does absolutely nothing to decrease the demand. The demand is OUR fault. We Americans LOVE drugs, and Trump should be blaming the American people, not Canada, Mexico, or China.

From Norway. I stand for Canada,Mexico,Ukraina end Europa. Let’s stand together against Trump and his rich friends.. Trump is Pultins puppet and first ´´ladý´… and to your Americans who’s stand up for Canada I respect and are proud of You.

Canadian leaders, please do not let Zelenskyy sign a mineral deal with the US. trump is setting Ukraine up to fail and take advantage of the Ukrainian people, like he lied to Americans. The world needs to now fight Russia and the White House. I stand with Canada and Mexico even though it is going to hurt my pocketbook...

Go after Donald Trump lock hem up we loved Ukraine in Canada where is American people

To the uneducated liberals in the comments, Canada already has a 270% tariff on American goods and has for the last decade with Donald Trump did was put reciprocal tariffs on Canada toQ further balance, the imbalance so you guys being upset that President Trump isn’t acting tariffs on a country who’s already enacted tariffs on the United States then you’re being hypocrites. \n\nSee most of the world audience understands this you guys are actually the minority. Donald Trump is pulling at 60% in United States. The Democrats are pulling at 21% in United States. Just so you guys have an idea of just how unpopular you guys really are.

From Canada to all the good Americans that don’t support trump. We still love you and will have beers with you again soon. Good luck it’s going to suck for all of us. Dump trump.

As a European American, I can truly say that I am embarrassed, shocked and disgusted by the actions of the Trump administration against our allies and partners across the world. 99.9% of American loves Canada and I am one of them!!! Stay strong because we have always overcome evil together!!!

No wonder Canada has decided to concentrate trade to Europe, American arms manufacturers are switching producing American arms production outside the USA.\n\nCountries effected by trumps tariff wars will be signing trade agreements to trade outside the USA pushing down offshore prices of a range of products American consumers already consume in quantity.\n\nEurope and other trading partners will benefit from these short term moves. Trade flows, capital will reallocate to off shore locations.

Canada been mooching off the usa for decades! Maybe Canada should volunteer to drop all the tariffs they have on us if they want to be friends. Why is it ok for them to have tariffs on us but we can't have tariffs on them? Canada started this terrific war years ago and the USA NEVER DEFENDED THEMSELVES! Why do we call them our ally when all they do is take? We have a hundred billion dollar trade deficit with them already. Canada funds their imaginary socialist utopia off the backs of Americans and it's time to stop the bleeding.

I'm an American conservative and a U.S. Army veteran (1984 -- 1988) and I support Canada and Ukraine. Trump is an evil idiot.

As a German, I support Canada and the Americans who are willing to fight against Trump's agenda.

As an American, I am in despair over the criminal actions of the Trump and his cronies. I wish Canada the very best in the future. I will always consider Canada and Canadians my friends. Bravo to you, Prime Minister Trudeau.

As a true American, we don’t stand with Canada. We don’t need you.

I am proud to hear our Prime Minister adress politely the American public.Speak to President Trump and reassure us as Canadians the we must respond with Tariffs that benefit Canada !

Then close ur boarders to criminals bringing in fentanyl. And to the fake Americans who don’t support America go to Canada and live. And for the record u will all see how bad zelensky is he could have stoped the war by agreeing not to try to join nato. And can’t account for millions of dollars. And was warnd the meeting was just about the mineral deal because if we put troops in Ukraine Putin who is still very dangerous will see it as a act of war. And he said he will protect American intrust in Ukraine basically saying if Putin breaks a peace deal we will be there to help respond. But zelensky took the moment with the media to pressure trump into saying we will put troops there which could start ww3. And if u trust Canada over the US ur an idiot. This guy doesn’t care about his own country. Look at the First Nation people. And how migrants get more then the people who have been there for generations. And people and fentanyl is still coming in.

Nobody in the history of time CAN STOP THE flow of American minds, voices, and history. Americans are world leaders in peace, and prosperity. We all feel for you here in Canada, and it is so sad to see your country being turned into something that it is not.

Trudeau is a sniveling little turd! He desperately wants to make the tariffs sound like they aren't 100% fair. Canada already taxes US imports at an average of 25%, so these US tariffs only balance the playing field. All that said, like Zelensky, Trudeau seems to forget that Canada needs the US, but the US doesn't need Canada. He says that it is going to be tough in Canada; true. On the other hand, the average American probably won't even notice a difference. But the neverending, desperate anti-Trump narrative twisting is all CNN knows.

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, many of us Americans hate this too! I appreciate you distinguishing your relationship with the American people (those of us who are not for this), from the cruel leadership in the US who are imposing these harmful policies. I admire your leadership. You are a true, dignified, level headed leader. I wish we had that here in the US. I'm so sorry for what my government is doing to Canada?

This guy does not speak for all Canadians here in Canada. He had every opportunity every opportunity to make things better with Donald Trump. They hate Donald Trump so now they use the media to attack Trump and make him look bad Justin Trudeau you’ve done nothing for Canada for the last 10 years, but put us in debt put us in financial problems put us in Criminal problems. We have rapist here that we brought to Canada terrorist that live in Canada. We are laughing country because of what you’ve done so don’t sit there and make yourself look great and brave and think that Canada’s behind you you better think again you’ve destroyed Canada now you wanna be a big man up there and podium and talk how you’re talking that you think you know Canadians and Canadians are speaking out well that’s a lie if you truly mean what you mean get rid of the carbon tax in Canada let’s start lowering gas prices in groceries. Has nothing to do with them. American people let’s start growing our own stuff in Canada that that been discussing many times and that you’ve just throw it out the window bring back our pipeline. How about that to increase cost and money in Canada again you won’t do that. We’ll have a fight with Donald Trump now I’ll tell you you won’t win. God is in control. Evil has no authority anymore and there’s nothing that these evil leads can do they’re swamp is being drained as we speak.

American people stand with our friend Canada sorry we have a president that don’t care about no one but himself always keep in mind. There are Americans here that don’t think with the same mine as him.?

We do not care what Canada says. We are not scared of canada, and we believe in donald trump god bless america god bless americans the gods bless trump.

As an American who voted for Kamala, it’s been like watching a trainwreck the past months. Really sad it’s going to take experiencing the worst for Americans to understand how much of a liar trump is. Canada should do whatever they need to to defend themselves and their economy

Inflation is sky high in Canada and going up. Prices of groceries and gas have doubled in Canada. Love that the ex PM of Canada is directly speaking to Americans after doing this to Canadians for 10 years.

Trudeau shouldnt talk, he is hated by his own ppl and TRUE AMERICANS STAND WITH THE USA if you dont, you are a traitor plain and simple.. not cater to simpletons like Trudeau who has done more to censor his ppl that protests always follow him. WE the MAJORITY who VOTED for Trump, OUR POTUS is doing what we the PEOPLE want. in the end we dont need Canada, they needs us. thats just a fact. when we sell our good in Canada, they tax us up the wazoooo, and we cant do the same? fk them ... thats not fair. USA is not the world POLICE and this highway robbery from other nations has to come to a stop as we have been giving consistantly for years and been getting the shaft from numbnuts like this fool. now we have a PRESIDENT with BALLZ....... and YES i served this country... 19k tank armored crewman and i served proudly...

Respect and best wishes to Canada, stay strong. American gov once again acts very cocky... Greetings from Poland.

If Canada didn't have tariffs on American goods, Trump wouldn't have placed any reciprocal tariffs on Canada. This is retaliatory If Canada really wanted to have this partnership that they speak about. Why not just remove tariffs on American goods? America's economy doesn't depend on Canada. But The same can't be said for Canada. Good luck biting the hand that feeds you.

Justin untrue doe knows his government will go Bank rupt with out the un balanced trade deals that swindle Americans and benefits Canada so now he has to come to the bargain table to address this issue so Donald can correct this unfair trade deal Justin untrue doe is screwed and he knows it how he addresses the issue will determine if Canada goes bankrupt or not good work by Trump to press the issue to benefit America

Pull the camera back and look at the big picture. The US has been divided sharply down the middle of the political spectrum. Canada has been crumbling under stupid political and economic decisions. This trade war is uniting the common people both American and Canadian and supportive allies around the world. Corruption has bubbled to the surface and many things that conspiracy theorists have been mocked for is now commonly known as truth. The people will unite while the Oligarchs mutter “let them eat cake” and there will be a reckoning. Donald might be making stupid choices, but perhaps that is what we needed to finally wake up and unite.

I am American, and Trump doesn't represent me. I support Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, and any allied country this tyrannical American president attacks.

Canadians demand that all business remove american products from their shelves...Make it easier for Canadians to buy Canadian only....Canadians have spoken....We support Canadian business....I live in Manitoba and I want to be able to buy products from Newfound Land to BC. I want to renovate my home with Canadian lumber, I want to eat Canadian foods, I want to wear Canadian clothes....Canadians have spoken loud and clear...we are doing our part, we want our gov to do the same so get rid of the provcial boarders and let Canadians show the US how Canadians put CANADA FIRST

im american--I stand with Canada. Im so sorry this is happening---Please know we love Canada and agree with your actions.

From America: Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau. You speak for so many Americans. As an American, I see it as if Canada and the rest of the Western world are humanely looking at the big picture. Why has my country failed so completely and selfishly?

I’m American…Trump isn’t 1/4 the leader PM JT is. God bless Canada…FDT

The majority of the American people stand with Canada over trump.
