I hope America doesnt buy Canada. They can stay over there. We American Indians dont want them here 😂

My thing is the people who want to hate on white ppl but then they move to white countries or the people who were born in America tht jus talk shit like they cant move somewhere else sure America has its problems but compared to anywhere else we have it amazing not saying it couldnt improve but i damn sure wouldnt wanna live no where else and nether do these ppl tht talk shit cuz they dont leave cuz if they did they would find out how good we have it in America and how blessed we are to be Americans

TRUMP SHOULD STEP DOWN FROM PRESIDENT. WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DONT WANT THIS.

oof, minisiter, sir, I dont want to be rude or crass, or seem like a know it all, you seem lovely. But you DID get one thing wrong that I have to point out...Our government isnt lying to us about ushering in a golden age for Americans...Theres a bit of fine print there, easy to miss, the government is actually bringing in a golden age for the .01% of Americans. \neasy mistake, no biggie.

AMERICANS AND CANADIANS TOGETHER. WE DONT BELICE THAT SHIT. WE DONT WANT YIUR OR TRUNMP.

We the American people dont want this but unfortunately half of us elected an idiot and now we're all fucked.

We are always friends with Great Canada. I dont control Trump. And so i wont dont want jail. I say I am so sorry as an American. I won't go into details to why some to why so many Americans think that they can go back in time. Some and many Americans think they are entitled. I cannot say so sorry for something I am not responsible for. I remembered a time when Hitler's friends blamed & they blamed incessantly.

Most of you dont know what's going on Trudeau has a bad approval rating and there is more to the story. Trump is fighting on your side Americans yet you fight against him. You want lower prices but think that comes from debt of the US you want less drugs but belive the president that has free use in their country to do any drug imaginable right next to the border.

Trump thinks he can control the world and extort money to line his pockets...Trump is revegeful, boastful and even the late QE knows that is also a balatant thief ...there is absolutely nothing good about him ....anybody else who is found guilty in the US are subjected to a prison sentence but Trump will corrupt the even the justice system so that he can wilfully commit more crimes and not be sentence to prison but can go on freely to commit more criminal acts. The American people who dont want more sufferings should strip him of the title president and kick the him out of the White House soon.

Yall are mad because America wants to play fair now, you're an ally not a state womp womp dont be mad when Americans prioritize their needs first. Tarrifs will make the lifes of all Americans better in the long run aka less taxes. Our country has been depleted and its time we woroked on ourselves. Prime example California? hole.

Canada shouldve been stopping immigrants and deadly drugs a long time ago. Now you want to respond! We lost too many Americans due to thay deadly drug. Hudreds of thousands of americans, including my brother. So to hell wtih Canada and there tarrifs. We dont need there products. Americans, stand stong and weather the storm. Canada will bow down. USA WILL NEVER BOW DOWN!

Guess Canada wants to wake a dragon ?, like dont think Americans won't out produce you , we the majority voted for this . Save your gas lighting for some one else we dpnt buy garbage here .

Americans dont want this either....we do not understand why NO one in office will help us. TRUMP IS A DICTATOR

I, an American dont want this either. Further , i did not vote for this tangerine turd. He is no good for America and the world as a whole.

As an American person, we dont want it either

As an American i dont want a trade deficit with canada. Get even or get crushed buddy. We move calculated, dont think our administration didnt crunch the numbers. We WILL figure it out without you buddy. Your people would travel down to the states to shop for the past decades. What does what say?

Canada, speaking for the Americans that did not vote for Trump, this is the last thing we wanted. This is going to be a rough 4yrs, but please dont hold this against us.

I can tell y’all dont play chess ♟️ Politics is just like a chess game with more pieces. This guy is about to leave office and when the next prime minister comes watch what happens ? this “trade war” is a bluff to make them do what we want, checker players ? no American nor Canadian will be hurt during this genius move ? look at Mexican president feeling the pressure that they coughed up 29 cartel members and they just got extradited to New York including one that killed a US DEA agent in 1985! With the threat of tariffs the Colombian president changed his mind about picking up his own people that crossed our border illegally instantly. He even sent his own planes ✈️ to get them. Our tariffs is to bring jobs back to America ?? and a major negotiating tool. Ya’ll confused Democrats in the comment section don’t even know what planet ? you standing on.

As an american i dont want this

Protect the borders from illegals and fetynal, us Americans dont want it. Youve allowed it

wow al the delusional people on here amazing .Trump wants the tariffs to pay so americans dont have to pay taxes thats smart we should do the same and has everyone forgot that tirdeau doesnt like free speech .he is on the epstein list and his sister is tied to the picktin farm .and the war on drugs is a joke .it is worse than ever. proof is in the pudding people .trudeau is the enemy just like biden and all those like him wake up canadians .tirdeau funds hamas they are terrorists and war mongers .how terrible Trump wants world peace so does anyone with half a brain.im with trump. he is doing what many should have long ago .we need Trump here too

American People: WE DONT WANT THIS EITHER, FUCK TRUMP

Man dont call trump my president its insulting...To all our allies, most of us REAL americans dont like trump. Dont give in to him he wants you to cave first..DONT

PLEASE dont let what trump does dictate how most americans feel this is all trump most of us love canada and its people you are our kin our faamily most of us in america do not like what trump is doing trump is a cancer to the united states hes dividing our country trump is a multi time felon trump is a wsomanizing racist with ties to a pedophile that invited him on his jet with undedrage girls that took hium to an island known as pedophile island trump spent time there the biggest majority of the usa wants him out of office

American here, WE DONT WANT THIS EITHER!!

We dont want it either. But we are stuck with an inept autocrat. We understand that you must do what you need to do to protect your country. This American supports you.

THE AMERICAN STILL DONT WANT ACCEPT THAT, PUTIN THE RUSSIA DICTATOR IS THEIR NEW LEADER, PERIOD

american here, most of us dont want this either. at least those of us that have a brain.

To all Americans here supporting Canada thank you. However telling us you are sorry or that you support us isnt enough. Turn your words into actions. Call your house reps and senators and tell them you dont want these tariffs.

I am an American and I kindly as all world leader to stay on Trump's neck!!! Dont let up! Keep your foot on that man's neck till we can get him out of office. We citizens who didnt vote for this will pay the price. Its a burden that will hit us all... but its our burden to carry now. Dont let up. We dont want this either. We love our allies. And the best thing you can do for us, is fight back. We remain neighbors, friends and allies. Do what you must Canada. We understand and we are sorry.\n\nI, an American, stand with the Ukraine and Canada ?? ??

I dont get it why the Americans think that we should even have to spend as much as they do on military...the whole world literally despises them and is actively trying to think of a way to attack them, but it is a much different story when it comes to Canada. Im pretty sure 911 was an attack on United States, an event that Canada did not have to involve itself with, but guess what? We did. We lost our own brave countrymen and women in order to come to the aid of the United States. Maybe the next time they want help they should look elsewhere. We were also there fighting in world war 2 way before the Americans decided to show up as well.

American People: WE DONT WANT THIS EITHER! LITERALLY NO ONE VOTED FOR THIS TO HAPPEN!

Canada gonna lose n they know it . They dont mind us paying tariffs . Why do any Americans want us to pay but not them . Because u not too smart

I’m American. Good for you! We dont want this either. We people of America love Canada and its citizens.

we dont want this either...turst me. Most americans dont want to be american anymore

we know you guys dont want this nor does us true Americans want it. trump wants this to pretend like hes a tough guy to make him feel like a man for a split second cause deep down he knows hes a disgusting person.

We love you ?? ?, my apologies from us American people, we dont want trump and his clowns in office. God biess you all with love and hugs from your American people. We love you Justin. ???

my prime minister, speaks truth, and americans u are our brothers, i know most of u dont want this, i only hope trump can smarten up i am so sad he won election

Trump , vance and Musk , are not very smart , \nby open trade wars , only the people get hurt on both sides , \nand if USA go after europ then usa will loose even more , \nUsa need us as much as we need them , and Trump \nshould start thinking , becosue americans are loosing power as well \nmust of in europe dont see USA as western leadership anymore , \nthat eneded when people of USA was stupid enough to vote for trump and \nvance , we warned USA people this would happent and still they voted trump \nand now you want us to stand with you ,,,, honestly we have a saying that goes like this \nyou gonna lay in the bed you made , and if you complain about you better redue you bed ! \nSo RNC votes , do you feel the pain the trump a, vance and musk are doing to you , \nif you do then time to remove the idiots from power ! \nand btw , you should rename RNC to RNCC ( Real Northamerica Criminal Consortium)

Trudeau shouldnt talk, he is hated by his own ppl and TRUE AMERICANS STAND WITH THE USA if you dont, you are a traitor plain and simple.. not cater to simpletons like Trudeau who has done more to censor his ppl that protests always follow him. WE the MAJORITY who VOTED for Trump, OUR POTUS is doing what we the PEOPLE want. in the end we dont need Canada, they needs us. thats just a fact. when we sell our good in Canada, they tax us up the wazoooo, and we cant do the same? fk them ... thats not fair. USA is not the world POLICE and this highway robbery from other nations has to come to a stop as we have been giving consistantly for years and been getting the shaft from numbnuts like this fool. now we have a PRESIDENT with BALLZ....... and YES i served this country... 19k tank armored crewman and i served proudly...

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!

Zelensky was in no position to make demands. Trump wants the war to stop, zelensky wants firepower. The war needs to come to a stop and we need to stop funding a war involving a country we're not even allied with. \n\nIf you dont agree with tariffs, it means you know that you import way to much shit. Dont like the tariffs, build it in america. Thisnis about american jobs.

Lets hope our nation serves as an example to other nations to be faithful in protecting your democracies or you will fall just as it seems we will here in American. Canada and Mexico need to protect their borders with vigilence not just for us but from us as well. Trump may well want to invade and controls all areas of our government and is gathering up vast amounts of money that he could use to do just that. As diabical as he is dont forget the kind of people he surrounds himself with and also the fear he can instill in those people when needed to do what they may disagree with.

I am from Europe and I hope our leaders will have the same courage and stand to the bullies. American people, I know at least half of you dont agree with what is happening and I do hope you will do your part as we dont want to be enemies but friends.

i am Canadian.....\n\ni am embarrassed by trump and feel for my American brothers..... i want to know what the end game is for trump - if he feels he gonna bully Canada or other nations he has grossly underestimated those that have supported the US through thick and thin...\n\nif his end game is under cutting NATO - he should review history and realize that the only country that ever requested helps officially under NATO was the US which we in Canada offered no questions asked...\n\nall i say to my Amercian brothers, his term is only 4yrs - we will welcome you back into the fold when this nonsense with Trump is over... I just hope that my politicians dont cause any nonsense and toe the line in being professional...

The majority of American people (all of the decent americans) dont want this either!! We dont want Trump!! I am so ashamed to be American right now!

you will collapse before we do you cant afford this we cant either nut we can hold out longer than you can so now this is you dont want to see what we do next LOL MOST of you want to be americans anyways LOL thats says alot about your country.not trying to start shit either i love canada but the truth is the truth we dont need you guys but you need us i love how you guys try to tell us where we will see the effect we havent seen nothing and wont we know how to sustain for ourselves

Don't worry American people they want it this problem they course the trump they want to be America great again and don't worry what is happening any American people you put your tax more than the trump number one is cut out the electric America after trump giving you mines - 200 tax cut if stop to minerals for air force stop to farmers Fortalice you can get another 200 percent tax cut is well dont think what the Americans thinking think first your own people nothing else ???

You mention that Americans are 30% more expensive than Canadians but you dont mention that the US is far more unequal with a Gini coefficient of 0.41 vs 0.35 in Canada. Now there is also a known issue with using GDP data to calculate productivity and that is that in sme countries the labor of GDP is much lower than in others. You then end up with Irish productivity being the second highest in the world only because most large US corporations operating in the EU register there to pay lower taxes but most of that revenue is just on paper for Ireland. or with Guyana whose oil and mining revenue makes it productivity equal to that of the US. Maybe that is the case, but is it? and if so why is the average wage in Guyana so much lower? so choosing only one specific stat can make any point of view seem true. you have to look at the bigger picture.\nnow the issue is Canada has been getting more unequal but it is still much better than the US. so what it means is that the higher worker productivity in the US benefits corporations and billionaires far more than it benefits the average American. now if we compare cost of living say between NYC and Toronto:\nCost of Living in Toronto is 37.5% lower than in New York, NY (without rent) \nCost of Living Including Rent in Toronto is 47.1% lower than in New York, NY \nRent Prices in Toronto are 59.2% lower than in New York, NY \nRestaurant Prices in Toronto are 34.5% lower than in New York, NY \nGroceries Prices in Toronto are 33.0% lower than in New York, NY \nLocal Purchasing Power in Toronto is 7.2% higher than in New York, NY \nand this is similar when comparing almost all large Canadian cities with a comparable US one. And whilst housing and NIMBYIsm is real issue you have very similar issues in the US which also has almost no mix zoning. But throw in safety nets and go ask Canadians if they want to change for the US system. I doubt most will. Sure some want things to change but some assuming everyone wants an ultra capitalistic society. most are ok with less growth ut better balanced growth (the exact opposite of the boom and bust US model)

As a Canadian, I am more afraid of the people than their healthcare system. And I am chronically ill and would be homeless in America. You seem pretty cool, but living in a place where children have to train for school shootings. I heard they cant even wear light up shoes for their own saftey. Just their hate of immigrants and people in general. Its not the first time that I have heard an American say they want to shoot down all the aliens. Also, wtf! We know you live in America. You dont need to have a flag every 2 meters. ????? even on your clothes. We get it! You're American! I feel like you guys get super offended by everything.
