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.

were with you Canada This administration does not represent true Americans. Thank you for standing tall

Well done Canada ????

Is the tarif imposed a breach of Canada right for \nfree exchange between our two countries?

Canada's Trudeau showing the clown show that is the current US administration what leadership looks like.\nTrumps not being played. He's owned by Putin. Kompromat.

Stand with Canada. Trump is pulling US to another depression

I won't be for Canada until Trudeau is wiped out.

American here supporting Canada and Mexico. I'm embarrassed by what that idiot has done and will continue to do sadly. Please know that not all Americans support this. In fact MOST of us don't, and we are standing with you.

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.

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.

Go Canada ?? ??

I'm betting that Canada will do what they can to help their people in their businesses while the Trump administration will let the American people and businesses suffer. Maga is all about the cruelty.

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?

Thank you Canada

CANADA WE LOVE AND WE HATE RU TRAMP?

Meanwhile this Canadian limp wtisted turd disarms it's citizens. Canada will be better off as our 51'st state.

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.

Watch how Canada crumble and for the people that’s from the United States. That’s not happy to be in the United States. You guys can leave.

Can you not see it? Donald Grump wants this. His next move is to ask the military to invade Canada and Mexico. And Grump will tell lies again to the American people why he is doing it. And dumb Americans will believe it. \nHe told Zelensky about WWIII? Grump is the one who’s starting it. And why is that? Simple, Grump and Putin are BFF’s that wants to rule the whole world. \nSane Americans should start a revolution and kick Grump and his cronies out of the office and jail them all in Quantico.

I am an American and I am horrified with what is happening. We don't want this. God Bless Canada and Justin Trudeau.

Love to Canada ?? ❤ support from Nevada, USA to fight against Trump/Musk fascism. ✌️?

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.

Say Canada would you like to trade some with europe?

I am from OC Socal stand w Canada. Hoping all allies do the same not kissing ass to this orange hitler, orange ?aka Putin’s Puppet. Def. he is not my president. Btw, he is a dumb not smart.

62 year old American.... I stand with Canada and any other country that is fighting against Trump

I stand with you Canada

Canada ?? ? ?

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.

The US undermining Canada, Europe, and the rest of western allies only benefits the Kremlin.\n\nPutin must be delighted his master plan to weaken democracies and NATO is actually working.

Canada ??

I’m with Team Canada

How this makes sense?! If I buy US products in Canada, I am charged 25%… and always being like that.

Lmao. Please Canada dont do it.... No you dont want this, you want a WAR. Ok. Lets go. Send your total 100k troops to defend your funny country... How about Canada spend at least 2% for nato, O wait you cant. Funny

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.

Trump is such a moron!! I stand with Canada and Ukraine!!!!

Canada said they are our friends but only stoped the drugs when they were threatened. Why did it take that to stop the supply of drugs to your so called friends. We should have never had to threaten you to help a friend. I hope we keep the tariffs. Canada can sale that wolf ticket to someone else.

EU stands with Canada ??

Trump is making canada great again. True Dough had wrecked canada in 10 years, nobody talking about that.

Respect for Canada ?? ? from Germany ??

Bravo, bravo Canada and Trudeau ! ❤?????????????????????????????????????

UK citizen here. Stay strong, Canada. I have always wanted to visit Canada. Even though i have relatives in Alabama, I won't be wasting my money going there again and will be visiting your beautiful country

Canada can't defend themselves in a war. If they get on the shit list with th USA then the world will realize they are weak. The days of the USA being taken advantage of are over??

I listened PM Trudeau speech more than 3×. What a great leader Canada has ?? ❤( probably the politest country on our planet)

Canadians don’t like you, you fucked up Canada

I'm surprised how many Americans are upset with this move against Canada, from the left and right. I'm not letting Donald affect my friendships I have down in the States with friends and family.

Well done Canada ????????????

Canada people can't buy Food

You destroyed Canada and you are a disgrace to Canada. Ask fellow Canadians. Why Are you still hanging around ?

Once again, Canada is fighting against tyranny, it's a shame that it's your neighbor. Stand strong because we, the American people, need you to.
