Thank you Canada we the people do not want this either

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.

As a Canadian, I'm obviously pissed, like the rest of Canada, and just to be clear, we don't forget!!!!\nA country that has fought wars side by side, and to see what the American government is doing is absolutely disgusting!\nTo all our American friends that didn't vote for this, thank you for the kind words.\nElbows up Canada, we stick together!

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau for all you have done for Canada. You had and have the best interest of Canada in mind.

Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to the world. How will this end? Not well. Canada, most of us in the USA are so ashamed of Trump and his harm to others. Canada, thank you for not bowing to Trump.

I am an American beyond appalled and disgusted by my country’s leadership, or rather, lack of leadership. Nothing but respect and admiration for you Canada. Thank you for understanding that most Americans don’t support any of this whatsoever. We love you. Slava Ukraini

I am a naturalized American citizen and a veteran. NO to a Russian dictator. I am with Canada, our neighbors, friends and partners. I will fight for you without hesitation. I stand with Ukraine and their fight against the Russian invaders.\nI never voted for Trump and I am sick, horrified and ashamed of this current administration. Stay strong and thank you to Mr. Trudeau for this great lesson in statemanship.

Thank you, Canada! As an American, I am appalled at the hellmouth this administration that I did not vote for has dragged my country into. Nothing I see suggests to me that the people we've entrusted with enforcing our laws and our constitution will come through for us against this coup that has broken with democracy and simple decency. So you do whatever you have to do to protect the interests of your own citizens, and I will have to hope that ultimately it will help topple these monsters who have taken this country hostage.

Canada...thank you! Please keep pushing Trump and his administration. We are counting on you to take this horrible person to task!

We need the help from our friends to speak the Truth, clear and loud. Thank you PM Trudeau. The only winner here is Putin. He gets to pit our Allies against us while destroying Russa's biggest adversary (or we were). This is insane, idiotic and hopefully my fellow Americans will wake up and turn this around before it takes hold. Congress needs to do their job and stop the Executive Orders we are not an authoritarian nation (yet). Stand with Mexico, Canada, Ukrain and the rest of the Free Democratic world.

Canada, please intensify the relationship with the EU and UK! We need to unite against our former ally the US. We love Canada over here. Justin, I promise to buy maple sirup once week. Thank you.

On display for the world to see a proud articulate Canadian vs a Dumb Ass Pathological Psycho, who is not smart! Unfortunately the US is stuck with the Psycho!! Thank you Canada for showing how it should be done!! An embarrassed American.........

Canada is my home. I was born here. Canada will pull together. We will survive this and we will make other trade partners as we go on. The world pretty much stands with us and I thank all of you who are doing all you can to stand behind Canada.\nI don't care which country you come from. If you stand with Canada and are a friend of Canada then you are a friend of mine.\nAn enemy of my enemy is my friend. May God bless you all.

US Veteran, here. Thank you Canada. Regardless of my late grandma being Canadian, I respect and adore Canada for which it stands.

Thank you for the support for Canada, all around the world. It is much appreciated in these scary times. ???

As an American, thank you for acknowledging those of us who understand with respect to Canada that they must do what they have to do to protect their own citizens. Prayers for ALL lives under the heavens. ??

To all our friends that stands with Canada ?? Thank you ❤

I am from Alberta, Canada and would like to thank all the American people that have said that they stand with Canada. YOU CAN HELP. Call or write to your various levels of government and let them know that this is wrong and will hurt everyone in the US and Canada. The sooner that the US government realizes this is a no win situation, the better for all of us. Also, thank you to everyone around the world for your support. I am Canadian, I am strong and free and I will fight for my country and for my family.

As a sane American, I stand with Canada! Thank you for standing strong.

Trump supports a dictator who lets children and babies die and wants to wipe out an entire country. He is opposing all of his allies for Putin. Putin will get money again. He is sacrificing parts of Ukraine and Putin has no need to fear punishment. Many countries were allies of the USA. We fully supported the USA after September 11th. People in the EU also died for you! I liked the USA very much, I spent my vacation there but I will not do that anymore, I will no longer buy American products. A dictator is being supported here and all our help to Ukraine for the past 3. years will be wasted! Trump will also restructure the USA so that he is the only king and no one controls him anymore. He want rich russians oligarch in the USA...That is how I think and feel... he s like Biff in back to the future when he owns all...From Germany! Thank You Canada❤.. \n\nI send love and recognition to every US American who did not vote for this president and who is for democracy and human rights. ❤️

Thank you Canada ??

WOW!!! What a calm, measured response toward an incredibly ridiculous situation. This is what leadership looks like!!! Thank you Canada for standing up to this bully! We'll weather this shit storm together. Thank you for being our kind, thoughtful, compassionate, patient, AND polite neighbors + friends. We LOVE you!!!

As an American, thank you Canada. I am so sorry. You are right we will be hurt the most.

Thank you to all you idiots that didn't believe in project 2025!!! I'm with Canada ?? , Mexico ?? and Ukraine ??

Thank you to all the support from the people outside of Canada. Please help us through this by supporting our online businesses.

I think what you are doing is right. I wish our leaders had the same compassion for humanity. Thank you for all you do Canada

I would like to say this, Canada we do understand. I thank GOD I seen the evil in Trump and his buddies. It's call spiritual discernment. You people that believe in Christ, you better put your trust in the good LORD.

I LOVE IT.. I'm mexican n I'm good with bean tacos n lentils ?. Will survive. THANK YOU CANADA FOR HELPING US FIGHT BACK WITH THE ? ? .

Thank you Canada ?? \nSorry for the inconvenience but we have a Dictator and he is not playing fair to you and to other countries. Blessings to your country and the people that live there. ???☮️❤️✨✝️????????????\nI LOVE MY COUNTRY BUT I FEAR MY GOVERNMENT.

from Germany: \nSince the war in Ukraine, Germany has been buying 13 times more gas from the USA (from 1% currently to 13%). It's time to show solidarity with Canada and get our gas from there. To all Canadians: be grateful for such a sincere and intelligent prime minister. Thank you, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, for your clear words!

This man is a dictator and he doesn’t represent Canadians. Canada has big problems and its legal drugs are killing people and being sold everywhere. Thank you, Trump for these tariffs.???

This is the type of speech hard to listen to, the type of speech you need to give to a country about to go war, make no mystake, thats what this is, and this is also the type of speech that shows who is and who is not fit for leadership, Trudeau you made mistakes when you were younger, but who didnt, but you sure matured to be a leader who can make people follow you from youre words alone, im glad we have a president in south america with such caracther on the side of reason and peace, with all the doomlike scenarios i conjure from seeying Trump pulling the USA to side with Russia and only imagine russia joining nazi germany just to get also screwed as soon as russia gets the chance and trump is clueless about it, youre speech eased my mind a bit, thank you and thank you to all the people of Canada

dt is NOT SMART! He's trying to RULE the US as a despot. We are with you, Canada!! Thank you for standing strong against the bully in the white house! \n❤CANADA❤

Thank you Canada! As an American I stand with you!

Patriotic American here. My government no longer represents me, my interests or my ideals. Thank you PM Trudeau for speaking up. Thank you Canada for being strong and decent people.

I am an American. I am also reasonable and polite. I didnot vote for #47 or support any of his policies, but will suffer the consequences of his pyscopathy along with so many others. Thank you for showing the world what integrity looks like. I stand with Canada.

Wisconsin man here. Thank you Canada!

I’m Canadian and loved PM Trudeau’s response to the tariffs. Thank you to all the countries throughout the world who have expressed their support for Canada. Vive le Canada ???

Thank you to everyone from all over the world in support of Canada standing up to Trump. As a Canadian born in N. Ireland who loves the US, and have many friends there, i am emotional reading all these comments especially the us folks, it gives me hope. Im to old and broke down to be in on the front lines, but i will limp my way to fight for this country. We are not for sale.\nELBOWS UP\nPeace from Toronto

Thank you! This is how a leader should speak and act!!! I am on your side Canada. I am so disgusted with our so called “leader” and government. I, along with many others, did not vote for this despicable idiot called Donald Trump.

as a Canada born...please piss off Trumpy to the extreme so he WILL invade Canada. Thank You Gov Turdeau .??????????

Thank you for your caring and concern. Canada is appreciated and loved by more Americans than you can imagine.

What a dunce. Get this guy outta the discussion. He just wants to keep milking the US and Canada for his own status. Thank god clowns have a ceiling in politics. Screw you Treudue. You're the spawn of communist Fidel Castro from swinger parents who put your strings on at birth to make you a global puppet.

Please, please adopt Minnesota. We love Canada. Thank you for speaking directly to the US people. We are suffering and scared!

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for your courageous and truthful words. U.S. citizens know Canada isn't acting against U.S. citizens, but against the U.S. Federal government as well it should. Canadians are lucky to have you in your role. I wish we here in the U.S. had someone of your caliber in the White House.

Germany and Europe stand behind our Canadian brothers and sisters! We will support you and, in case of doubt, help to defend you. Thank you for your great nation, you are a ray of hope in a very dark world led by egoists and enemies of democracy. May our great democratic nations stand together forever and let every anti-democratic wind smash against our walls. Oh Canada!\nOur home and native land!\nTrue patriot love in all of us command.

Thank you Canada \nFrom an Aussie

Thank you for all that you do to be good allies. There are a lot of Americans that DO NOT want this Tariff war with your friends to the north or the south. We did not vote for the orange pumpkin and his unreasonable shenanigans. Love you Canada.

Thank you Mr T and Canada!

American student at a Canadian university: Thank you Canada, for speaking out. Many of us know this is wrong, and we do not blame you for the chaotic fall of the U.S. empire. I stand with Canada (and Mexico for that matter).
