The complete disrespect this man has shown our president by calling him by his first name we are going to keep those tariffs on you until Justin Trudeau is no longer Prime Minister of Canada

I stand with Canada, I’ve been there many times and hugely respect the people and the country ??

I wish Trudeau was our president. He doesn't lie, cheat, or hurt HIS country. I am also sad that Trudeau will soon not be the Prime Minister of Canada.

I sure understand and respect this gentleman and president of Canada ?✅

Trump wants Canada's natural resources. He is going to, sooner or later, invade Cananda. He's made a deal with Russia and China to takeover the world. Canadians and the world need to prepare for war. Trump is the antichrist.

tHIS GUAY A BOZZO HE THE REAL REASON WHY CANADA IN THIS MESS ONLY THIS CLOWN

Don’t be fooled. He doesn’t care about Canada. He’s deflecting the hatred towards him at Trump. Trudeau is a narcissistic coward who has already announced his resignation.

what a time to be alive. USA wants to be alone, let them do that. I know Trudeau is hated in Canada, but god damn is he 100x a leader than what Dumb is supposed to be

We are taking over Canada ?? ???

I am an American but I am with you Canada. Do what you have to do.❤

Much love to you Mr. Trudeau and to the people of Canada who I have always found to be most kind and generous. This American is with you all the way!!

German here. I stand with the EU, Ukraine and Canada. Let us remember that it‘s the billionaires that divide us and rob us of our future. Let‘s put our differences aside and focus on that truth for now!

We have no Govt. Trump is dealing with a loser that has already resigned. We have had no GOVT since early December in Canada, because Trudeau put the Liberals before Canadians. Majority of our country doesnt want that fucking loser leading us in this mess, his words are WORTHLESS.

The real reason for the tariffs is because it has never been fair for the United States we pay more taxes for products in Canada in Mexico in Europe and it's always been like that and it's sad that it has to come to this in order for everybody to pay their fair share. That's the real reason. it'sad that countries are mad because they can't continue to rip off the United States. if there's fair trades there are no tariffs period

God bless Canada.

Make a deal !!! idiot !!! Americans pay for your free heath care !!! How much money have you been getting from Americans ??? We the people will not do it any more !!! You got nothing we need !!! Wait for tolls for using our high \nWays !!! So keep talking smack !!! No welfare for Canada !!!

LOL Canada is mad.

how about Trudeau step down then none of this would be happening. Trudeau & the Liberals have destroyed Canada. Could he leave already? US economy is bigger than Canada idiot.

Trump made Canada great again! ?????

??? Oh boy. Little Trudeau acting like a tough guy. Canada will come crawling. It's only a matter of time. Mexico? They're screwed too. Just wait and see.

How is Canada escalating something the US escalated? I don't get this comment from the CNN anchor.

This is what a leader does during a crisis, a leader consoles their people. I love Canada I wish I could move there?

The opipid and fentanyl plague in US is not fault of Canada or Mexico, it is fault of the shitty health care system inUS, and hreed of the wealthy. . So to fight it the IS needs to make thongs right within and not bully neighbours. Of people don't do drugs because they have jobs, hope for future and decent health care...

We don't back down to anyone when it comes to Canada our freedom comes first Donald Trump win this war come on man what you thinking when it comes to us

I'm Brazilian, and it legit makes me so sad to see the Canadians being left this way by Trump... it's just a dumb situation, it's a selfish move made by him, and that sure affects Canada a lot, and that's why my family and I stopped buying American products. Stay safe and strong, canucks.\n❤

No one likes Trudeau not even most of his own people go away already you ruined Canada . Get a common sense PRIME minister that can bring back Canada to its glory a respectful SUPPORTER from the U.S.

We don’t need anything from Canada we have it all here. I’m boycotting Canadian bacon ?

As he thinks so little of Canada's long friendship and a 100 some years of protecting the Americans back, I'm beginning to think we should be doing the opposite. Reduce efforts at the border and let the foreign immigration, crime and drugs flow south into the USA. It's no longer our responsibility to protect their back.

Canada has been mooching off the U.S. for years, time to take responsibility and make your own money, no free handouts anymore ??? #merica

the one that destroyed Canada wants to give advices to Trump... nice joke CNN

Forget Canada as the 51st state.\n\nAs a Northeastern American, I think most of us would prefer to become a province of Canada at this point.

He’s CRAY! Wasn’t us! We stand with you Canada!

It seems like Trump is trying to suffocate Canada economically and forcing them to be the 51st state this is the only reason I feel like he would do this.... truly sad for the Canadian people sorry that my country is doing this to you

Ok Trudeau, if Canada is implementing a tariff as well does that mean Canadian will also stop paying taxes like Trump is doing in the US?

There's a trade deficit with Canada.....if you actually think US will be worse in the long run compared to Canada, you would not go on TV like this Trudeau. You would just tariff

As an American, I gotta say… we really shouldn’t be doing Canada like this. I get it when it comes to China and other countries, but Canada?! I do not approve! ?? and ?? are basically besties regardless of the government drama and whatever substances may be involved.\n\nMeanwhile, Mexico is out here like, “Hello? Focus on me!” ??\n\nAnd in true Canadian fashion… “I’m so sorry, eh!” ??

Trudeau is a gutless spineless snake \nThe most hated dictator in Canada

Just a short while back canada was against truckers and farmers. Quit trying to make a ass of yourself on tv! Zelensky tried the same shit in Europe.

Sad American citizen here that didn’t vote for Donald. I wish we had strength like that representing our country. I’m with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine

I have so much respect for Canada ??♥️

The only way to deal with a Bully is to stand up to him just like Zelensky is doing in Ukraine, Trudeau is doing the same with the orange Mussolini. Go Canada ??

The fact is...they've been benefiting from America for years! We don't NEED canada.

I’m an anti-trump American and I say “GO CANADA!!!”

? Canada is a joke, you couldn’t even scare a toddler, hurt us ?…SMH ?‍♂️\nWe been in Biden recession for 4yrs, so yeah we will good ???…

American here…standing with Canada…. ?? russia.

If Canada wasn't sucking the titty it wouldn't even matter . I back my country. We can figure out who's right and wrong when the smoke clears.

Both my sons were born in Canada! I lived in Windsor and Tecumseh, Ontario for 6 years. I love the Canadian people and my in laws even though divorced from their brother (who is deceased now). I wish I could move back! I am ashamed to live here right now!

TRUDEAU YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO CANADA. YOUR CARBON TAXES WAS WHERE THINGS STARTED..... NOW THIS WILL DESTROY US
