Anything But American did not have to be, but it will take a generation for the fall out to become a thing of the past after this gross attack is ended. As a senior I can say that I will be gone before reciliation will be achieved. Trump signed the free trade agreement with Canada 5 years ago and he has proven the America is not to be trusted and treaties are meaningless. Trump, and by extension America, has walled itself in to keep the world out. Americans have been less than welcome in some places, now those places include their neighbours. Carrying American dollars and the American flag abroad will not be looked at the same as it was just last year.

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

Canada puts tariffs on U.S. goods and get mad when us on their goods should be 100 percent free trade

I live in America, I Love Canada As I Live Right In The Border. ! I love All People This Is Terrible And Evil To Us Regular People! This Hurts Us All I Have Family, And Friends On both Sides of This Continent. The border is our back doors. We all shop, visit, entertain all over we all should be FREE. STOP THIS EVIL IN THE NAME OF THE MOST HIGH! YAHSHAYUAH!

From Europe: Europeans strongly support Canada. Having visited Canada several times, I can fully attest to its natural beauty. The remarkable unity demonstrated by Canadians across the political spectrum in their opposition to the current U.S. administration is really inspiring. We should now be strengthening the Canada-Europe relationship, establishing free and unrestricted trade between our regions.

I decided to take a holiday in Canada this year. ??✌?\nIt's still a free country. ?

Oh sanp, i forgot I walked into the woke media, guess what canada free trade this free trade that. But has the audacity to charge us a tariff but cry when it happens to you. Protection of your air space isn't free and offsetting your military while you sit back and do nothing is over. The rent is due, time to pay up.

This isnt a personal Strike to Canada from the US, This is Business. \nSecurity isnt free and the US will not be hurt by this. \nFinally, the USA goverment is forcing manufacturung back to the US. \nThere is one winner from this and its not Canada. Mark my words. \nSpeaches like This one is only to peak the interest of ignorant and small minded people. \nWake up people. This is just Trudeau Using media to make it like Canada is being picked on. \nWill there be a Canada in 20 years?

This is the old and sad Trump tactics. In one month Trump will say that he is willing to stop the tariffs if Mexico and Canada are interested in renegotiate the bad free trade agreement that some idiot signed 5 years ago. Oops, was that Trump?

Trump did a good thing. All you woke, soft hearted liberals don't get the fact that the USA has been allowing these other countries to eat off of us for free. Well, that' stops today. The President/PM of Ukraine will also learn a valuable lesson today as well. Never bite the hand that feeds you. All of our tax dollars have been donated around the world to other people's causes while we are made to suffer. We have a financial crisis right here in America that needs to be addressed. This is the start, and in the long term, we will prevail. Canada is like a little sister to the US. Trudeau is talking about fighting and they can't survive a war without our help. Neither can many of the other NATO countries. So, middle finger to him and any other country that opposes us. It's time stop being taken advantage of and for the USA to start acting like we are the most powerful nation in the world. Many of you don't like Trump's decisions simply because you don't like the person. Get out of your feelings and look at then big picture.

I do not undetstand. Pls explain. How can bying from canada be ”an unfair deal”. USA are free to by from another country.

Trudeau sounds like a child that just got kicked out of his mom’s basement and told to go start making a living himself instead of getting the free ride he has been accustom to. Time to pay your bill Canada. We just can’t afford propping ya up anymore. Don’t worry it’s not just you,it’s the end of all the reckless spending that our bloated government had been doing for years. I’m sure you will be fine, but you’re going to have to get rid of all the waste in your government too.

Donald Duck Trump MESS IT ALL UP! THIS OLD ORANGE MAN was voted by the blinded Americans. He's a puppet of a dictator. A cowardly leader who doesn't deserve the position in the oval office. He's full of greed and selfishness. Your GREAT KARMA WILL COME SOON!☝️☝️☝️\nBlame all of these to TRUMP, JD VANCE, ELON MUSK and their American supporters. You will reap what you sow. It may not be now, but in the future.☝️ You'll regret what you did.\n\n???I WILL STAND FOR MY COUNTRY, CANADA! WE ARE THE TRUE NORTH, STRONG AND FREE NATION. THE ENTIRE CANADIAN PEOPLE, AND ALL OTHER NATIONS AGAINST THE NARCISSIST IN THE OVAL OFFICE.

Dont forget Canada applies tariffs on a variety of goods imported from the United States, but the specific goods subject to tariffs can vary depending on the trade agreements in place, as well as individual circumstances and trade disputes. Some of the key categories of goods that have historically been subject to tariffs or trade restrictions between the two countries include:\n\t1.\tAgricultural Products:\n\t•\tDairy products: Canada has a system of supply management in place for dairy, poultry, and eggs. As a result, certain U.S. agricultural products, particularly dairy, face higher tariffs when imported into Canada.\n\t•\tPoultry and eggs: Similar to dairy, tariffs are applied to U.S. poultry and eggs under Canada’s supply management system.\n\t•\tBeef and pork: Canada has historically imposed tariffs on U.S. beef and pork, although these are often adjusted or reduced under trade agreements like the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement).\n\t2.\tSteel and Aluminum:\n\t•\tCanada imposed tariffs on certain U.S. steel and aluminum products after the United States imposed tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum in 2018 under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962. However, in 2019, both countries reached an agreement to remove some tariffs, although certain products may still be subject to tariffs or quotas.\n\t3.\tLumber:\n\t•\tSoftwood lumber is another contentious issue in U.S.-Canada trade. Canada has faced tariffs on its softwood lumber exports to the U.S. for many years, and there have been instances where Canada has applied retaliatory tariffs in response to U.S. actions.\n\t4.\tConsumer Goods and Electronics:\n\t•\tSome consumer goods, like electronics, furniture, and vehicles, may have tariffs or duties imposed depending on the category, though the majority of goods between the U.S. and Canada are traded tariff-free under the USMCA, which replaced NAFTA.\n\t5.\tAlcohol and Tobacco:\n\t•\tCanada applies tariffs and duties on alcohol and tobacco products imported from the U.S., but these are often subject to specific regulations and agreements.

CANADIANS ARE REASONABLE, OUR PRIME MINISTER IS THE LUNATIC.\nJUSTIN WANTS TO KEEP THE WAR GOING IN UKRAINE. TRUMP WANTS IT TO END.\nJUSTIN IS A HOMICIDAL MANIAC. AS FOR A TRADE WAR, THIS IS NOT A TRADE WAR. TRUMP IS BRINGING THE WORK BACK TO NORTH AMERICA. TRUDEAU THE GLOBALIST WANTS TO KEEP MAKING A COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP WEALTHY.\nWE PAID 7 % PST BEFORE FREE TRADE. 15 % AFTER.\nTHATS NOT FREE TRADE. CANADIANS NOW PAY CHINAS TARIFFS.\nMULROONEY GAVE BUSH SRS EULOGY. WHO SOLD CANADA OUT TO GLOBALISTS. THE BUSH FAMILY CHASED ROSS PEROT OFF.

Canada is now a socialist government... Russia went to war because of the 91 and 94 accords.. don't join NATO.. and don't put weapons systems in pointed at Russia.. against the most corrupt country ever.. where has our 762 billion gone?? Canada has been fucking us for ever.. and allowing illegals through and Chinese fentanyl.. remember the truckers??? Trudeau seized their bank accounts.. we are not free we are free range cattle tax slaves.. any Chinese fentanyl shyte coming from Canada is above anything... Ai tracking and cameras lol . More 1984..

Maga wants blood! Not reason! The mad man has planted the seed of superiority in their narrow minded thick minds! They believe Canada is part ?? and maga! Canadians you better buckle up and prepare yourselves for this wolf isn't stopping! He is willing to destroy everything in his path if he cannot have it! Canada you like or not you are the front line and flag barriers of the free world! ?? has fallen.

As a Swiss I stand on the side of the free world. I stand on the side of Canada & Ukraine. To the Trump-Regime in the US: you stand alone. You‘re making America regret again!

us and canada both babies, IsNotReal is the enemy, Free ♥???. 70% women and children, real number.

Shame on Trump and his henchmen.. I stand with Canada and the rest of the free democratic world.

Suck the blood of common canadian citizens and give free money to ukraine. is that make sense? what you didto the honest hard working canadian citizens? health sytem is worst in Canada. tax on honest hrd working peoples ruined their life.

You were wrong at one point only, Trump is not smart, he is as dumb as his actions. In a few weeks he messed up the free western world holding hands with Putin?! Used to love the US and went there every year for holidays.. now we will go to Canada.. as a Swede I think I would like both the land and the people. Your president seems to be great?

Stand Tall Canada - the World is watching you stand against another murderous dictator in waiting.. Canada must broach all avenues of economics.. even those in the southern hemisphere.. Australia is one economy.. l was born in Australia.. and stand with the Canadians... the people of the free world must stand together

Finish Free trade zone with EU. Its already in progress, with maximum engagement from Canada and EU it can be done it less than a month. Lets call it MTES - Make Trumputin Eat Shit.

Yet, a majority of Canadians are so full of hatred themselves and want to replace Trudeau with a Trumper named Pierre Poilieve. This is how stupid people are all over the world, this is not just a US thing. The Trump propaganda forced Trudeau to step down for no real reason. He let in too many immigrants yes,,but so did every other world leader, thats it, but enough for the Canada Trumpers to throw away free health care. Trunpers in Ontario just won a landslide with Dictator Doug Ford.\nOnce Pierre Poilieve takes charge we will be paying for healthcare and a 51st state. \nCanadians are making the same mistake due to fake news and propaganda by Trumpers/Truckers. Those Canadians dont want free health care anymore, they want Pierre Poilieve's hate filled agenda over a smart well spoken guy like Trudeau. Just watch and see...Canada is about to f up bad..

The UK a supports Canada ….The USA are traitors to the free world

We want Canada in the EU ( European Union ). No problem about the name, we´ve already changed it a few times. We can rename it Union of the Free.\nBy the way, Russia, Alaska was part of Russia, you have to try to get Alaska back. We´ve already bought pop corn, let´s start the show.

I am from Germany, and I see Canada as an ally. Trump is the devil in person, and I think all other free countries should stand together now. Only together we can stand against, Trump. Trump thinks the world is in the 1800 hundreds, and It's ok to attack allies and friends.

Go Canada! Europe stands with you. Free trade zone with Canada-EU-India!

As a Frenchwoman with friendly ties to the United States and Canada, I am horrified by what the Americans are doing to the Ukrainians. And I think this trade war is a splendid gift for the Chinese. What's happening to the leader of the free world ?

Remember that the guy is convected felon. Sure he will praise dictator. Now Canada and Mexico know how they are dealing with. He and his crony isn't your or free world friend and he never will be.

I completely agree with what trump did. He’s doing an amazing job! Funny that Trudeau is trying to put forth the same false narratives as our Democratic Party does. You can tell that he def watches cnn and MSNBC. \nThe American people don’t like you Trudeau. Your own people hate you too. You’re a tyrant. What you’ve done to the Canadians is sick. Especially with taking away free speech and jailing people for hateful speech. \nYou people in Canada actually give heroin and cocaine to people who want it at certain safe injection sites. Don’t try to act like you’re really about stopping the drug flow.

Thank you, to all our brothers, sisters, friends and allies from around the world. Canada loves and respects all of humanity. Canada supports the rules based societies and international law. We are a loving, compassionate diverse nation that comprises of all nations as citizens from around the world. \n\nYou know us and we know you… we are connected. We look forward to making new friends, strengthening existing ones and we are open to free, fair and peace loving people. \n\nMake no mistake. Our kindness and compassion should not be mistaken for weakness. We are forged from the steel of our earth. We will go over the boards when our friends and families are attacked internally and around the world. \n\nLong Live Canada and Ukraine! Elbows up…

Good job Justin. There's nothing else you could have said or done. The problem as I see it, is that responding in kind to Trump like this is possibly to invite an invasion, justified by Trump claiming that Canadian assets are essential to US national security. It's hard to parse the provocation from the US as anything less than a pretext to eventually try and annexe Canada. Maybe Russia will attack the Baltics at the same time. It's becoming increasingly obvious that the US Government is no longer a friend to the free world.

From PA here and I stand with Sovereign Canada, Ukraine, and all other free Democracies. Pray for us we our losing our country.

Illinois here, I stand with Canada, Ukraine and the free world! Not ever with Russia of any type of these types.

Your free rides are over Canada!!!

Well, of course you KNOW WHY THIS IS happening, don't you ????\nWhy can't people get the fact that it is Elon Musk who is making the call here ????\nHe wants to control the world ?. \nSo, by bringing CANADA ?? TO HER KNEES, it could make it easier for the US to take over CANADA ??.....\nNone of those who are running ?‍♂️ IN the ELECTION CAN MEASURE UP....THEY JUST CAN'T...\nAND FREELAND WILL DO TERRIBLE THINGS. \nI FOR ONE DO ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUST HER...\nTRUDEAU MADE SOME EXTREMELY BAD CALLS BY LETTING FAR TOO MANY IMMIGRUNTS\nINTO THE COUNTRY AND THE CARBON TAX WAS A FLATLINE FAIL......\nHOWEVER, NO MATTER WHO WINS THE ELECTION, \nTHEY WILL FLUB UP EVEN WORSE BECAUSE NONE OF THEM ARE CAPABLE. \nALL THE WORK TRUDEAU IS DOING BY NEGOTIATING WITH OTHER COUNTRIES FOR COMMERCE WILL BE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG AFTER THIS NEW ELECTION....\nTRUMPF WANTS ALL OUR RESOURCES AND WATER.\nHE WILL DO EVERYTHING HE CAN TO BRING CANADA ?? TO HER KNEES..\nI'm deathly afraid of what's coming .\nCanada has free health care. \ntrumpf and helon Musk will grab our pensions....\nI PRAY ? TO ALL THAT IS HOLY,\nWE DO NOT BECOME PREY....

America here. Canada, stay strong. Our government is operated by the corrupted. The WH, GOP Congress, GOP Supreme Court all controlled by the war criminal Putin. Trump and Co. will bury the US. It's all lies and corruption from DC now. Stay strong Canada, Mexico, and China. Trump/GOP Congress is owned by Russia. You saw how Trump deserted the Ukraine to a war criminal. Trump will do the same to you. To the free world.

Free canada and mexico from tariffs

Thank you for not consorting with communist pigs like chump Canada a democratic country should never allied with any communist or dictator or terrorist putin is all of those hes not an elected leader hes a dictator he took control of russia kills anyone who speaks against him you praising him alone with nazis is sick and un American its so scary that america is happy to work with the free world’s greatest enemy….

Well spoken!\nI'm with Canada, the Ukraine and the FREE world!\nAmericans, enjoy what you voted for! Unbelievable!\nI wish all the worst for you!

We don’t need your fertilizer, we are buying it from Russia GEN free , free from bad ingredients. \nWay better and \nWay more cheaper.. \n\nAnd all other products that Canada normally delivered.. \nprices are more than half.. \n\nKeep your junk..

I hope that Europe UK Australia Canada and the rest of the free world does whatever it takes to counter Russia and West Russia (Previously known as USA) and I'm entirely sure that even tho UK is biggest US ally both UK and Australia will support Canada as it is part of the common wealth

Proud to be Canadian. Best country in the world! Justin Trudeau much respect ? oh Canada ? ?? true, north, strong ? and free.

Free World...UNITE and RISE against evil! Respect to Canada!

Courageous Canadians, courageous Canadian parliament compare that with the fully cowardly congress..on both sides. If the US congress has at least one testicle of courage Trump would be in jail by now. Canada is now the land of the free and the brave. America, show me that you are not the cowards your congress and courts are!

We, the EU, stand with Canada. Only together we can stop dictators like Trump and Putin. Only together we will succeed. Long live the free democratic world.

Canada new leader of free world go Canada
