Stupid ass Trump is making enemies right and left to please Putin. He is a sell out to Russia. He is not making America great. The dumb ass is making America worse. \nI am proud of Canada and their leadership. Nothing like the mess we have now here in the US.

I am surprise Canada is reacting so badly against the US. Canada should focus on countering China and not the United States

I am a US citizen and I'm proud of you Canada ??. I didn't vote for the idiot in the WH and neither did none of my friends and family. This move by the current POTUS is more like orders he got from somewhere else ??. He's to stupid to think of anything himself and he doesn't read anything unless someone tells him.

I am an American, trapped with this Government, who I did not vote for. I do not blame Canada for your decisions. King Trump is evil, convoluted, self-centered, racist, and convicted felon. I am embarrassed for our GOP decisions. I am fearful. I am sorry.

Your a DB trudue. Nobody in Canada wants you and the USA laughs at you.

Good man straight talker good on you Canada

Gen. Wesley Clark is somebody that, i have respected for over thirty years. Even Gen. Clark has expressed his displeasure over the way the Trump administration has threatened Canada with unfair tarrif's, on US'S closest ally and neighbour. It is obvious that Putin is manipulating Trump so as to isolate the US from its traditional friends and alies, as US credibility will decline internationally. Tarrif's will bring higher prices to American manufacturers and consumers and bring higher unemployment to Americans.

This is Insane! I am a American who is Cheering on Canada a Country that's not my own, because of how they are being treated! The behavior of Donald Trump makes me ASHAME to be a American!

This is not about drugs it's about taking over Canada. I'm Australian, and I stand with Canada and the Ukraine ❤

Canada thank you for taking these actions. Despite our (disgusting) administration most Americans are with you. Keep up the good work.

As an Aussie I stand with Canada and Mexico

Australia is with Canada, Europe, and particularly with Ukraine.

hell yeah based canada

I'm an American and I stand with Canada and the Ukraine

I stand with Canada also! For those of you who voted for Trump, does this surprise you. He stated everything he's doing now. I didn't vote for him. So don't come whinnying to me.

We’re with you Canada. Apologies for this orange false prophet.

USA will invade Canada and will conquer

I'm with you, Canada ??

As an American in Buffalo, I stand with our dear neighbors and friends in Canada!

I think that the USA will soon find itself all alone in the world. Canada, Europe, Japan, South Korea, etc. are just seeing that you can't rely on the usa.\nThese countries will reorient themselves. China will be happy.

I'm a Scottish person who has just had maple syrup and bacon on my pancakes. Won't be buying any American pancake toppings that's for sure. Go Canada. Really hoping when Scotland qualify for the Mexico/USA/Canada world cup in 2026 that we don't end up in the USA. Don't trust them anymore!

Canada has a population of 40 million while the U.S. has 330 million. Take a wild guess why Canada has a trade surplus with the United States.

Canada needs to build its military - NOW

Trump has disappointed many many Americans with this decision and his opposition to Ukraine—he will regret this, Canada our closest friends and supporting 3 years of Putin sickening terrorist attacks of Ukrainian civilians! I voted for Trump, but he is only ONE branch of our government, a Democracy, not Authoritarian! Our legislators should override Trumps decision, it takes 2/3 approval by our House and Senate and it does not matter what Trump does, he cannot Veto! Trump has some twisted affinity for Putin and Dictators. When Trump does not get his way, he tantrums and acts out…a very cardinal trait of Trumps personality. There is no logic—he goes on and on about all the lives and dying, then he supports Putin who has 1200 to 1500 Russian youth getting killed daily. \nSLAVA UKRAINI ????

From the Netherlands I stand with Canada and Ukraine. And not the lying authoritarian Trump regime!\n\nI remember Trump saying America is no longer the laughing stock of the world... True now we can really only shake our heads at this point. It's gone beyond laughing stock. It's just sad now.

Scotland , as ever stands with you Canada . Trump again not welcome back here.\n\nHoping the British gov follows the Scotgov position and don't bow to this dictator

I am American and I am SO happy Canada will not bow down to our weak, gutless, capitulating dwarf of a man, Trump. Good for Canada!!

Just curious, currently (before Trump's Tariffs) how much TARIFFS does Canada pay for American goods and how much TARRIFS does America pay for Canadian goods? If Trump is increasing TARIFFS more than Canada, then that's sad.

From Holland: go Canada!! We are with you!

Good, pull all America crap off your shelf Canada. I don't care about burbon or whiskey because I don't drink liquor anyway. Who cares if they lay off some burbon and whiskey employees. America voted and wanted this, so here you go.?

Germany here: let's work together against this clown. The world needs more canada.

My fellow Americans have never had a king before. We were lucky for a very long time. Things are going to become catastrophic. I stand with Canada and the Ukraine, always. Even when he makes saying that illegal (which will come soon).

As an American, I can appreciate Canada's response to the felon president. We want Trump, Miller, MAGA politicians and Elon out. They are bullies and Putin's puppets.

I guess it is a hard “No” to Canada becoming the newest US state,then?

Canada is subsidized by the USA???? man yall stand with enemy while for yearsssssssssssssssss the USA been taking care of every continent one way or another

Go Canada. Well done JT.

We live in the USA but we are with Canada!

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

Putin achieved what he wanted,to divide the EEUU from Europe and Canada not to mention Mexico. And terminate OTAN…

everyone wants our money and gets angry when they dont get it, WE ARE IN DEBT. we are trying to solve the debt and not just continually give aid to be people that dont need it. Work for your own country and help your own country thrive, be independant like the canada you want to be. stop being a leech.

Well done Canada! Now join the EU and be part of the proposed European army! You might even consider building a wall on your southern border.

Democrats, Canada, leftists are a chit stain and Trump is the bleach

We are with you, Canada.

Greetings to Canada and the Canadian people. With this decision, you are exporting inflation and high prices to America, and the American citizen will feel it later, and then Trump will come to negotiate with Canada. Imagine if Europe applied the same principle. I almost swear that Trump will become a beggar in the political street for Canadians and Europeans.?

This guy is a clown. Bring it Canada

As a American I can’t be move proud and happier with my vote!! American is so back let’s go trump!!! Canada don’t want this smoke we’ll come take your land off you

What a brilliant speech. No shouting, no humiliation, facts and a clear plan of action. Dignity and strength expressed calm, precise and civilised. My highest respect for Mr Trudeau and Canada!

The only thing D.T. is doing is ruining everything with his politic. (But I guess we all know about it).\n\nThat's the one whom signed the Free trade agreement between US, Canada and Mexico. The same guy whom now pretexting this agreement is not good for US. \nHe destroys all the friendship with US allies and what has been built for decades.\nIn 4 years, what wil be left over?\n\nAmericans will suffer the incompetence of this guy.\nIf only it was not real, we could either think it's a fiction or a joke, unfortunetly neither of both of them; that's a reality.

So sorry Canada and all the sane countries, I'm so sorry our wannabe dictator and his cult followers are too ignorant of what this will do. I'm so glad you are standing up to this stupidity.

Does Canada charge the US tariffs or other types of charges? If so, how much?
