I am an American and I stand for America!!! Time for American politicians that we vote into office to take care of America and not get sucked into taking care of our countries around the world with American citizens hard earned tax money, NO MORE - MAGA (MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am an American and do not agree with what Trump is doing. Yiu gave my full support. Trump is out of his mind, and so are the people who are behind his lunacy!

2 months in and I am already tired of our American Leaders.

As an American, I am embarrassed and ashamed.

Dear Canada...I am so embarrassed (and worried) to be an American. Trump and his cronies don't speak for me or my family. I'm really afraid of where our country is heading.

I'm from Maine with a Franco American heritage. I am heartbroken today… remembering open borders between our countries, no passport required. I support Canada ?? and Canada's leadership looking out for their people.

I can't make sense of the way that Trump and his lapdogs are acting. Trump is not my president and he doesn't speak for me. This is going to kill our friendships and Trump would rather be friends with Putin than Canada and Ukraine. I am so ashamed of these actions. Please Canada stop buying all American products and double the taxes. Don't put 25 percent put 50 percent on any of our products. Make Trump pay for his stupidity.

I'm American and I hope the world knows that most Americans do not agree with Trump and his co-workers,\nI am not a Trump supporter I never have and never will, He won because many of his supporters voted for\nthere hate twords anyone that didn't look like them and now they are also screwed. Trump needs to be\nimpeeched and removed from office before the US is ran into the ground.

I am American and support Canada and Mexico’s actions wholeheartedly. That said, I feel you guys are still bending backwards. Please don’t. Talking about fentanyl is nonsense. The man child you are dealing with only understand one thing — strength and sting men. So man up and throw some punches, otherwise he will call you next to White House and ask you to rub your nose. Cheers!

I AM ASHAMED TO BE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN! AND TO HAVE A DICTATOR LEADER SUCH AS TRUMP.?

I am an American citizen but I agree with what you are doing. Trump is a putin, Xi and kim wanta be.

As an American I am SO HAPPY you are standing up to this craziness! Don’t back down!! And those who voted for this in the US will feel what they have done. Keep going Canada ??

I am American and I am so ashamed. So many of us did not want this.

I am an American and I agree with Canada. This is terrible for everyone and I hope our government will reconsider this terrible idea.

I'm African American and I am very disappointed about the trading war with Canada. \nTrump is a clueless person.

As an American we are getting a Golden Shower from Trump. As an American I have never been more disappointed of my country then I am now. You do what ever you need to for your awesome country. I believe everything you stated because it's that easy to look into. Trump and Musk are Russian puppets that is easy to prove but the idiots here do not understand the facts. Most of America supports you. God Bless!!

You go, Trudeau and the rest of the great Canadians! As an American, I am ashamed and appalled at the unholy trio of trump, Vance and musk.

Trudeau cares more about me and my fellow Americans than Trump does!! Trump needs to take a page (maybe an encyclopedia set) on leadership from Trudeau! Notice that he is doing all he can to protect Canadian jobs and people during this trade while Trump is firing hundreds of thousands of American workers, causing the layoffs of more, and doesn't give a hoot about tanking the economy! On behalf of those who did not vote for Trump thank you Canada and Trudeau. I am sorry .

As an American, I stand with Canada. I am worried, but someone needs to stand up to Trump. I am sorry that it is not the US. So many people still support him and I just don’t understand it.

As an American I am certain that the Enemy from Within is determined to destroy America and the American people. ?????????

I am American and absolutely loathe what trump is doing, and I'm not alone. Canada is doing the right thing here. Canada - please know that most Americans are on your side.

As an American, I am ashamed of how our new government is acting. We individuals hold no malice toward Canada and understand that you need to protect yourselves from our own stupidity. We look forward to reestablishing our relationship in 4 years.

It’s really annoying that CNN continues to babble on instead of letting Trudeau finish his press conference and then proceed with their responses. Our country is in the hands of a madman along with Musk and other cowardly Republicans who are in office. For all of those who voted for Trump, wait till energy and other costs rise, but it’s a shame we will all suffer as a result. Canada is our friend I am ashamed right now to call myself an American.

As an American who grew up in Canada, this saddens me to my core. I spent my whole childhood and into my 20s in Canada, and am really regretting ever leaving for this cesspool. I still have all of my family in Canada and I will always feel Canadian and will always stand by and fight for them ?❤️?

I am an American and I stand with Canada and every other nation being harassed and bullied by the Trump!

As an American I am humiliated and embarrassed. Donald Trump is an asshole, so is JD Vance and Elon Musk. I apologize to Canada.

As an American I do not stand for how our president is leading our country and I am even more embarrassed after seeing a true leader such as Trudeau!

As an American, I am grieving for the downfall of our democracy and the devastation it will create for everyone. We are soooo sorry!

I am French Canadian who is an American citizen and never have I felt so DISCUSTED AND APPALD with this new government that has started the fall of everything that America stands for I STAND WITH CANADA ?? MEXICO ?? AND UKRAINE ?? ?

I AM an American, and this NEEDS to happen. A true test of American democracy is happening! Sometimes, when things look the worst, especially with this American experiment, we get stronger and better. But in the meantime, it all looks like shit. Trump is a bad head cold, a virus that needs to be inoculated. The antibodies are coming (free loving countries of the world -the American people). Stay strong and stay united, and don't give up! We are ALL in this together!

As an American, I am ashamed and embarrassed with how this new government has managed to tarnish and destroy our reputation around the world. I did not vote for that idiot in the White House and for those that did, I hope it was worth it.

I am an American. I apologize to Canada. I am ashamed and embarrassed to be an American at this time. Millions of us didn't vote for this criminal and traitor.

I am an American and I support Canada. I agree that these tariffs are unnecessary and I am sorry that this is happening .

I am so proud of Mr. TRUDEAU, I am an American and retired veteran and so sick of our Administration doing this to Canada and Mexico. I served with some great Canadians from NATO BACK IN 1998-2000. IT’s so sad to see this happening today.

Being an American I am behind Canada and feel these Tariffs are uncalled for and will do nothing to help our ever growing Inflation! It is Trump, and the problem is the rest of our Government (Congress and Judiciary) are spineless and won't stand against him. Trump is not doing anything for us but HURT us. I call for Trump's IMPEACHMENT and taken out of Office!!

Go Canada. I am an American and I support your efforts.

I am an American and I support Canada 100%. I am so proud of you!

I am embarrassed as an American. Trump and his cronies have falsely promised their constituents that he is for the people. NO he never was FOR the people, he is for himself. Our ignorant Americans believed his BS and now they will suffer for their stupidity. President Trudeau you are a gentleman and a brilliant human being. I wish I could vote you back in. Trump has to be taken down.

I am a American and I stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukrain

I'm an 80 year old Navy veteran and I am ashamed to be an American. My wife and I walked out of a concert a week ago when the band started playing Proud to be an American. Americans are oblivious to the shit storm coming our way. They thought the economy was bad based on egg prices of $5 a dozen. You ain't seen nothing yet.

I wish Trudeau was our president. I hate what is happening in the U.S. because of Trump and his minions. Putin must be gleeful at the destruction of the U.S. and all of the favors that Trump has given to him. The American people do not want this horror show that Trump and Musk has orchestrated. The Trump cult is bringing the downfall of America in the world. We are no longer the 'home of the free and the brave', and Trump is no longer the 'leader of the free world'. America will diminish and become a small, petty, stupid, country. I am glad for Trudeau, and Micron, and the UK and all of the democratic countries and people. I feel horrible for what is happening to Ukraine because of Trump. Mr. Trudeau, you are a fine and wonderful person and head of your country. I wish that you could help us out of this madness. :(

I am an american. What the f. This is not the america is know. Supporting dictatorship and fighting our allies.

As an American citizen who has seen through all of Trump's lies, abuses, and racism since the 1980s, I am sadly amazed that so many of my fellow citizens have bought into his transparent disregard for our nation, it's people, and the world at large. Trump has created a rift of division unparalleled in our history. At the same time, the world at large has never seemed more united. Until this dark era passes and my nation returns, I will take strength in being a citizen of the world.

I’m an American…. And I am so jealous that you have a sane president ?????

American born, live in the USA and stand with Canada. President Trump is not my president. ?I am on disability.

I'm an American.. I am so sorry this is happening to Canada. It makes me ashamed of my government! May God intervene, and may God Bless Canada! In the mean time...turn off the power too!

How many people grew up in Divorced families with arguments and name calling and all the insults? I’m just wondering because the way our president in America is acting along with JD Vance and all the MAGA politicians they all act like those parents with the constant negativity and verbal abuse that all the crap that they put the American people through!!! How many times has our country gone through anything serious within or outside of our country? I am 62 years old and I can tell you there has been many, but we have never had a president / vice president and all the politicians on one party sit there and act the way these IDIOTS act! I was just thinking about this because of the constant stress I feel on a daily basis with this administration! It is a public disgrace as our trailer trash parents fight in public! Makes you want to run away!! I cannot stand the people responsible for what we are experiencing in our country right now! I blame Trump, Musk and all those American that voted for these idiots!! F” off!!

I'm American and I am so happy Prime Minister Trudeau did not cave to the convicted felon, Donald Trump. Bravo!!!

I am a Proud American that is so damned ashamed of my Federal Goverment and how they are treating our Canadian and Mexican neighbor and North American peers, please except my apologies for how you are being treated, most of us American DO NOT agree with what the White House is doing. With having both Canadian and Mexican roots, this hurts!

I am an American and totally agree with Canada. \nTrump is messing with Canada and all Americans in his crazy quest to get money to give the 1% billionaires.
