Canada ur fucd udont gro ur own food .merka

Well Justin, after listening to you smug listing of all the measures you’ve taken to reduce fentanyl traffic as well as “other” traffic and implemented US requests for cleaning up border issues. I ask: “Had the US not made these requests, would you have done the neighbourly thing and cared enough for your neighbour to have monitored what criminals in your country were up to? It appears you had to be reminded of your duties inherent in the ‘office of being a good neighbour’.\nYou are STILL weak and the mouthpiece of ‘controlling interests’ in Europe who in the end will toss you out on the street like some sucked dry orange and forget your fawning presence ever existed. Man up and at least try to leave an honourable legacy for Canadians. The BOC will then be able to fulfil its mission of printing its own money without bringing Canada into the slave-pit of European Banksters.

Why doesn't America have a responsible leader like Canada? Are we going to let our Country be run by Grifters and Greedy Con men? Take action TODAY! Americans make the choices. Not Insane fools by the name of Trump.

Canada is more like the America that America is supposed to be

Well done Canada ????

Hail Canada!❤

Stand with Canada. Trump is pulling US to another depression

Just signed up for , “made in Canada “ ?? ❤

I am Brazilian and have always admired Canada—its people, landscapes, and culture. May this moment serve for you to come together and not forget those who betrayed your trust.

I don’t own a single product from Canada, not even maple syrup

God Bless PM Trudeau. This American agrees with you. God Bless our allies in Canada. ❤

The problem here isn't temporary. Tariffs may or may not be. But when Canada, Mexico, and other countries build alternate trade infrastructure and strike deals that exclude America, this becomes near irreversible and will hurt America's economy well after Trumps term. And that's just trade and economy.\n\nThen there are many relationships worldwide which are already affected, and world leaders are poised to move on without America - leaving it isolated. The US is the most powerful country in the world and can survive alone, but even so, no country flourishes without international partnerships that both parties can rely on. Like Putin, nobody can rely on Trumps word.\n\nHe is destroying everything. And the American public are largely sitting back and watching it. \n\nWake up before it's too late.

I am italian (ex russian). And I stand with Ukraine, Canada and healthy part of Europe.

This is exactly what a failed politicain who has already resigned needs. A crisis. Justin is using this to his advantage. What ever happens he is a bad decision for Canada.

someone in Canada needs to start dusting off the Geneva Checklist...

If we compare Trump’s tariff policies with the approach taken during Smooth-Hawley Tariff Act (1930), there are striking similarities and key differences in terms of economic impact and global consequences. Here’s a comparison:\n\nSimilarities:\n\t1.\tProtectionist Goals:\n\t•\tBoth Trump’s tariffs and the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act were implemented to protect domestic industries by imposing heavy tariffs on foreign goods.\n\t•\tSmoot-Hawley raised tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods, while Trump has imposed significant tariffs on China, Canada, Mexico, and the EU.\n\t2.\tRetaliation by Other Nations:\n\t•\tAfter the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, U.S. trading partners retaliated with their own tariffs, leading to a massive decline in U.S. exports.\n\t•\tTrump’s tariffs are already facing retaliation from Canada, Mexico, China, and the EU, which could slow down global trade.\n\t3.\tMarket Instability & Economic Risk:\n\t•\tThe Smoot-Hawley tariffs are widely believed to have exacerbated the Great Depression by restricting global trade and worsening economic conditions.\n\t•\tTrump’s tariffs are triggering stock market declines, price inflation, and global trade tensions, raising fears of a potential recession.

Why he is still in office? he is the worest thing that happened in canada. dems and turd incentivized illegals for the last few years.

Canada thank you for being the bigger person in all of this, I pray America wakes up one day and just admits they were wrong and sold a false bag of goods by Trump ( for those who were to oblivious to see it)

We are reasonable, than why are we being absolutely destroyed by our politicians for the last 10 years? Thats not reasonable.\n\nThe reason they so outspoken now, is because they know it will make it even worse than what they did, and will continue to do..\n\nIf this tarrif thing never happened would be business as usual, and the Canadian Politicians would just keep making Canada even more expensive, now they have someone to blame for the absolute horrible position they put Canada long before this issue.

Saying attacking Canada is being done to keep the US safe sounds mightily like putin saying he had to attack Ukraine to keep Russia safe.

Worst thing that ever happened to Canada is this fool! Not the tariffs.

Canada took American products off their shelves a long time ago

A great Canadian leadership and a proper honest speech. We need this leadership in Italy as well. I wonder if Trump really understood this speech instead of acting with arrogance. Lately, l don't get him. First Gaza, then Greenland, Ukraine, and now Canada?

The world loves Canada. ❤

Well done Canada from your brothers and sisters across the pond. Naturally this is the only reciprocal response to such tariffs by adding ones of your own so I am not sure what Trump aims to gain from this.

ALLYS AND FRIENDS TREAT EACHOTHER EQUALLY 200 BILLION IN TRADE DEFFICIT A YEAR TO CANADA WILL HAPPEN NO MORE... EVERY 5 YEARS THATS - 1 TRILLION

Stay strong Canada.

just imaging Canada denmark and greenland whould be a nice thing.

It's not always true Canada doesn't stand with a murderer. A convited murderer of former Bangladesh President along with most of his family members has been sheltered in Canada. Despite repeated requests from BD government to extradite him Canadian government especially Mr. Trudeau didn't bother to take any action. It's like kind of cherry picking!

Anyone on the planet would give anything to have a neighbour like Canada. Justin Trudeau, the world is witnessing how you have risen up to a bully and protected your country and your people. America is run by a goon, and Russia is happy about it.

As an American the citizens don't really have a choice on what trump decides to do. If you want to match his 25% tariffs I think you should. We qlso don't want to help putin hurt others. We want to work with Canada our allies. I don't personally know anyone that doesn't agree with this but that doesnt meant they do not exost.

The United States has given Canada less than $35.1 million in financial aid in any fiscal year since at least 2001. <<<<<<< MAYBE WE SHOULD TAKE THIS AWAY

Trudeau sucks! Canada sucks! They're like a pesticide to America that has fed of us!!

from canada Trudeau Made me proud. \n Bu I think he speech has fallen on deaf ears. All Trump hears is BLaa Blaa Blaa.

Hello from Texas? Thank you Canada for standing up to Trump and not being a coward like the representatives in US Congress!

I don't like Trudeau. I don't like what he did to Canada in advancing a ridiculous far left agenda however I also don't believe the tariffs employed by Trump were the correct thing to do. Mexico and China, yes. Canada, no!

Canada needs to build a wall to keep us out.

Canada, please HELP us get him out!!!

I stand with you Canada

What times we live in :D America becoming ally with Russia which leader putin is nothing else like Stalin or other soviet leaders. And America is becoming enemy not only with Europe but also with closest ally Canada :D What the hell is going on? China celebrating now. USA had veroius presidents good ones, bad ones, smart ones and dumb ones, but this one is no doubt the worst and dumbest one ever.

Maybe building a Boarder Wall on America's Northern Boarder would be a good idea. Canada is responsible to guard our boarders and allow in only those who we feel qualify. Canada does not close it's boarders to those who wish to leave, nor does the United States close it's boarders to those who wish to leave. The United States is free to put up a wall and a boarder crossing anywhere you wish, stop whoever you want to stop from entering your country. I can tell you that The fastest Boarder Wall that I have ever seen go up is the one that Trump just raised between the United States and Canada, the Tariff Wall. What you have done is put signs on our shelves, buy Canadian. You have taken American Product from the top shelf, to the verry bottom shelf, behind the Made in China. You have closed the Travel Agencies to United States travel, nobody wants to go to your country, and I heard that there is going to be a 250% Tariff on hotel accommodations for Americans visiting Canada. It is not only about the Tariffs on Canada, who Used to be your friends, it is about your new friend Russia, who support Terrorist organizations all over the world, including the ones in Gaza who held Americans Hostage, who supports IRAN who supports Russia in murdering and raping women, kidnapping children in Ukraine, torturing and murdering citizens with their hands tied behind their backs. If this is what America supports, if this is what America does to its Ally's, I hope the taps for the oil and the switch for the electricity are turned off, and we never have to worry about each other ever again.\n\nCanada is a country with an Area roughly the size of the United States, with a population 340 Million is 8 1/2 times larger than Canada at $40 Million, with a GDP 9 1/2 times larger than Canada. America is a Bully.

That Canada prime minister is a true leader not trump.?

Yeah we dont gaf. Been trying to get Canada to help protect the American continents for decades from Russia. \n\nYou're full of the old white owl.\n\nTired of the spending ...time to grow up. Gave out right fa tories to Canada and Mexico whole industries to help them along and the sacrifices was like a participation trophy.\n\nBring it.

Canada is the new leader of the free world.

Canada's economy really means nothing to the US but why are we punishing Canada, our closest ally

How about Canada supporting the Terrorist State of Israel?

American here, I’m with you Canada! I’m sorry this is happening. I wish this would all just get better.

MAGAnificent! Go Canada!

This man is a lier and has taken the guns away from Canadians. The USA does not need Canada. I say we pull our military out of Canada and build a northern border to further protect America. Canada is nothing more than a branch of Britain.\n\nIf you news reporters don't like the American first idea then move to Canada.

Dear Canada, Can I come over? I don't like what we're having here at home.
