as if we had nothing else to do than to get involved in other people's business but it is surely the multinationals who make Trudeau react they are afraid of losing their investment. The resigning Prime Minister Trudeau should worry about the real problems and rather than seeking confrontation with other nations they should on the contrary create alliances with Asia rather than with the European Union which is collapsing and which will lead us into their crisis we prefer to accuse others of our bad decisions the world is changing and we watch the train pass once again, it is so easy to find an enemy and put everything on his back ex: what has Russia done to us? nothing at all but for fear of what others will say (the Americans) we have to get them on our backs. War is not going to happen in Canada at all, we are not made for that, besides, looking at our arming is ridiculous, yet we were an extraordinary force for peace (the blue helmets). Our governments are idiots like all the others of our time and if that does not change we will stay on the train platform saying to ourselves that we should have

Trudeau was right when he said it was dumb. The US tariffs are simply about bringing America to its knees and destroying America. That is why the country is being recklessly run. The idea is to destroy the American way of life and America. Have you seen a 3rd world country run. The fighting and the division in the 3rd world country? The events over the past weeks are not about efficiency. 1 worker doing 15 people's jobs. Who is running the government? Tariffs are one more thing to destroy America. US government federal workers all let go, paying government employees pennies on the dollars and lying to the American public about efficiency, farmers and textile workers that voted are stranded without jobs, social security being destroyed, programs being destroyed, Americans being lied to, Americans being taken advantage of due to poor knowledge and education, education being taken away and putting un-elected immigrants/foreigners to run/destroy America. Yes, the Tariffs are one more thing to put Americans in the street, turn off their electricity, take away their heating system, and make America into a poor 3rd world country. Trudeau and Canada are protecting its workers - federal and private and yes, all of Canada. Canada is United. Americans better find Unity like the Canadians are doing versus worrying about who voted Red or Blue.

The shopping hierarchy is:\n\nProduct of Canada\nMade in Canada\nProduct of/Made in Mexico or EU\nProduct of/Made in China\nProduct of/Made in LITERALLY ANY OTHER COUNTRY THAN THE USA\nDo without it\nIf you can’t do without it, find one from a company in a blue state\n\nI’ve almost eliminated ALL American goods from my expenditures except for Sunkist oranges from California\n\nIt’s not the 20th century anymore and America isn’t the only operation in town. Anything anybody needs, they can get those needs filled without the USA.

Many Americans still consider Canadian our friendly neighbor. Many of us did not vote for that demented psycho conman felon. Do what needs to be done including turning off the power at the White House. We can only wait it out until our next election for senators and congress. MANY republicans are already furious and will vote blue.

Do not say United States! It is only the most dumbest person in American history and his maga retards that want this tariff war. Please only turn off their electric in the Red states not the Blue states. F The Orange Stain and his Magatards. Who else loved, “ Donald”. The disrespect that implies is fantastic!

American here… I’m sick and tired of every country telling US American people how we should feel. From behalf of all blue color America!! GO F YOURSELF!!!

Millions of Americans and especially those of us in blue states do NOT support Donald and his fascist party. We are with you Canada and the rest of the free world

To all Canadians, as an American, it was so refreshing to see PM Trudeau stand up to the big bully who has some type of bromance with Putin. We feel he has something he’s holding over ?’s head. We also feel our election was rigged by muskrat. We live in a Blue state, Illinois, and we will suffer some things the ? felon we withhold from us. I don’t care. We’d rather be in a blue state no matter what. Please pray for us and all Americans who despise this man. Thank you.

As an American, I'm sorry, world. I voted blue

I am an American living in the deep blue Northeast US and I stand with you, Mr. Trudeau! Feel free to annex us if you want. I'll help!

In California but 1000% Team Canada. I am actively seeking out Canadian products to replace those from red states. (Canadian Mist, Crown Royal and many others are excellent replacements for Kentucky whiskeys.) I hope (and expect) that Blue State governors are working with Canada and our other allies to put the squeeze on Trump-supporting states and industries. While I hold out little hope that Trump cultists will ever not be brainwashed, putting them through direct and maximum pain is the only possible way out. Canada, elbows up! Turn out the lights, raise the price of our oil and know that true Americans are with you every step of the way.

Sorry Canada, many Americans are embarrassed and pissed off by Trump's inane traitorous, harmful agenda, stand firm against Trump, Musk, MagaMuskRats, the billionaire class, all the spineless cowardly GOP politicians in Congress and the POS quiet corporate Dems. We need more like Raskin, Crockett and AOC and fewer establishment Dems like Schumer and Jeffries. Always vote Progressive Blue and RESIST, PROTEST, BOYCOTT, REBEL, DEMONSTRATE!

Red white and blue president Trump Americans stand with you

Washingtonian of 64 years here. I stand with you Canada from my blue state. I am so embarrassed right now to be an American. ?

I’m an American from Blue Dot Nebraska. I am so proud of you and Canada.

Watching this is amazing. I'm no fan of Trudie, but right now he's doing alright.\nI hate to tell the Americans watching, we did try to tell you and personally I feel for less than half of your people. The fact that the blue leaning public had to so dumb as to use THIS election to show your dissatisfaction with Biden and Harris is leading many people around the world to wonder if America is even worth worrying about at all. How can you's be this stupid you're no better than the MAGA crowd.

I’m an American who voted BLUE. We love Canada and support your actions.

As a blue-blooded American, I’m heading to the store to buy me some Canadian whisky! Stay strong, Canada! You’re obviously smarter than we are down south. ❤

Canadian here (NS): Not the biggest Trudeau fan the last couple years.. buuuut he is hands down more a world class leader of his country than trump every could be right now or ever in the future now. What a shitshow. Trudeau REITERATED the wall street journal's words.. dont spin it like trudeau just name called him out of the blue in the hopes to insite something else. Look INWARD (cough*trump*) and fix your shit. Remember these days my american friends.

From an empathetic Canadian, Americans have my support. Blue states want to come up?

Blue American here. Do what you need to do. Totally understandable.✌

I am A Vietnam Veteran , Jan-Dec 1967 , and am A True Blue American Patriot who loves America with Every Ounce Of My Being !!!!! That being said , what Donald Trump and his Traitorous Conspirators are doing to Our Neighbors , Both Canada and Mexico , is A Travesty Beyond anything An American President has EVER DONE in Our History !!!! My belief is that Trump is A Russian Asset who is doing everything he can to Tear Apart Our American Democracy , to give Vladimir Putin An Open Door to America !!!! Trump is A TRAITOR TO AMERICA , MAKE NO MISTAKE !!!! Prepare yourselves for America`s 2nd Civil War !!! IT IS COMING !!!!! You can laugh all you want , but you won`t be laughing when you begin to hear Gunshots ringing out in Your Neighborhood !!! The ONLY THING that will convince Trump he made A HUGE MISTAKE is Americans armed to The Teeth standing outside of The White House , ready to rip him out of it by force !!!! He has Underestimated Americans Resolve !!!! REAL AMERICANS `` WILL NOT STAND BY `` while he systematically Shreds our Democracy , and Names Himself THE KING OF AMERICA !!!! ITS TIME FOR WAR AMERICA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Mr. President Trump, would you please reconsider welcoming these wonderful fellow North Americans living in these TEN Canadian Provinces, not as the 51st State, but as TEN States, when being invited into the United States of America? These Canadian Provinces being Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.\n\nSuggested is to make Canada’s existing 10 Provinces into 10 individual United States States. Canada will benefit with a strong 10 State influence within 60 United States governance affairs. Benefits are 10 more States on a balanced display welcomed as 10 white stars within the beautiful United States of America field of Blue of our Flag. Other countries will see North America’s Great Power when 60 glorious States, when combined, and working well together, communicating best when communicating with each other only in English, when English is the United States official National Language. No more Government waste of having multi language signage. Another geologically considered North American country, Greenland, with 4 more territories may wish to add four more States, as well as the many existing United States Territories across the globe may desire Statehood. The Sun will never set on the United States. As for 10 Canadian States, think of the  benefit of 20 mostly conservative thinking U.S. Senators which equals a larger majority of conservative votes in the larger U.S. Senate when composed of 120 Senatorial political leaders. 120 U.S. Senators keep the Filibuster procedure balanced. 10 Canadian Provinces converted into 10 United States States equals many more conservative House of Representatives votes enhancing the conservative majority of political leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives. So many good reasons why Canada’s 10 Provinces, with a mostly conservative thinking population of thinkers, should be transformed into 10 new United States States, not just one United States. Yes....10 more States that is the helpful way forward for the United States to have a very dominant conservative thinking population of United States Congress Political Leaders, resulting in a long term more stable United States Congress representing 60 United States, thinking more conservative, thinking more logical, thinking more common sense thoughts, thinking more capitalist job creation thoughts, thinking more tax cut thoughts, are just some of the benefits of having 60 United States of America States on  display, and functioning efficiently going forward for all the World’s Countries to marvel at.

Thank god my state won out blue, even if just barely. I would feel so embarrassed living in a red state. Wait nevermind I still am ashamed to be an American for the first time in my entire life, even though I didn't vote for him. Glory to Canada and Slava Ukraini, can't believe I have to remind people of this

FEDERAL FUNDING IS GOING TO STOP ?. WE THE AMERICAN ?? PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN. THANK YOU ? PRESIDENT TRUMP SEND THEM ALL BACK. WE AMERICANS LOVE ❤️ OUR IMMIGRANTS. BUT YOU HAVE TO COME IN LEGALLY. YOU WILL BE SENT BACK IF YOU DON’T. ALL THE ILLEGALS WONT BE GETTING ANYTHING FREE ? ANY LONGER. SEND ALL THESE MILLIONS OF ILLEGALS TO BLUE STATES - SANCTUARY CITIES. WITH NO FEDERAL FUNDING. LET THESE STATES FUND ALL OF IT. AND DEAL WITH ALL OF THE CRIMINALS. WE OTHER AMERICANS WILL BE PRAYING ? FOR YOU AND YOUR STATES. ????

This is racist ! People white with blue eyes, Europeans. They are illegally in U S A ! It’s no problem. They’re walking in the nose of the American people and is no problem.

Mind, Body and Soul. Haters only promote hate and forget to be kind towards other human beings. People wanna be clones and want to be cookie cut perfect. The thing with Transexuals is that their souls don't feel comfortable in the gender that they were given at birth. Just like people that were born with curly hair and want straight hair. Short people thst wanted to be tall. Brown eyes that want blue, etc. No one mentions Leonardo Da Vinci, or Alexander the great. Homosexuals, Bisexuals, Transgender people have been on earth since the beginning of humanity they were in short numbers or barely mentioned. Alan Turing was an English Prodigy Mathmatician who was punished for being gay and out of ignorance was given hormones to make him female. Totally backwards psychology, totally misdiagnosed. Theirs souls cry out. We have the science and Medical knowledge. With the only exception of the the chromosomes and thats where the debate splits. The soul is one thing and the genes are other. Then religion comes into place. Then it becomes financial. The chromosomes will always be male or female. XX Female, XY male. Some people are born into poverty and then become rich. Gays and transgender people are also capable of having great minds. Being intellectual. So many gays through out history. The thing with some people is the religion aspect. For the millitary its about cost, they mix it in and change it around. They want the brain power, but don't wanna pay for the transition operation. I think society wants women to stay weak and for alpha males to call the shots. Again a transexual female can never replace a biological born female. Transexuals know this. Why destroy their only shot of a little happiness in this world? It is a very cruel existence because they will be on hormone treatments for the rest of their lives. So many gay men all over the world have femine souls. Then there are tough Lesbians who have masculine souls. It can be confusing but one can get over it all at once when you look at people from the human point of view. They bleed, they think, they have hearts, emotions and needs like everyone else in this world. America loves to put down Jews, Blacks, Minorities of any kind, sexual minorities like the LGBTQ community. Think of all us in a bus or a cruise ship. We are in this ride for a lifetime. I know for transgender people who in Asian Cultures and Native American know about the souls. Other religions don't punish or discriminate. No human being is perfect. Just love and respect one another. Kudos to the pilot for serving our nation ❤

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHOM WHAT OR WHERE AMERICANS, IF YOU CAME IN THE WAY SAME WAY YOUR OUTTA HERE. ALL ARE SUCKING THE RESOURCES OUT OF WHAT IS FOR US AS AMERICANS BLUE GREY PINK OR PURPLE, AMERICANS 1ST, WEATHER THER YOUR FAMILY FOE OR FREINDS THEIR OUTTA HERE SO WE AS AMERICANS CAN UTILIZE THE RESOURCES PUT IN PLACE FOR N US ONLY NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT, IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT LEAVE THATS YOU HAVE TO DO GET TA STEPPING PERIOD. \n\nRIGHT IS RIGHT AS WRONG IS WRONG COLOR RACE OR CREED IF YOUR NOT HERE LEGALY GET THE FUCK OUT IF YOUR AMERICAN N DON'T LIKE IT JUST TAKECYOUR HAPPY ASS ELSE'S WHERE.FOH, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH NFWDLI PERIOD ? YEAH

Focus on making it affect Red States as much as possible, please. But, Blue States should feel some pain for putting such an unappealing candidate on the ticket. She was so poor of a choice that her message wasn't strong enough to beat one of the worst humans on earth. When will the Dems learn how to talk to the average unintelligent American? [rhetorical question]

They are just going to come here and wave their flag. Anyone who comes here their national alliance is to America. The way you get here is the way you keep marching. Forward with your old country behind you, not carrying it on your shoulders with pride. We have some Americans we can send with you!!!! There should be some kind of mass moving out since trump won. Politics ????? now the blue side or left side whatever it's called. They are trying to get people to swear in open court not to do the exact same things they have been doing. ??????

Mexican government sold out their workers for $14 a day wages. Maquiladoras keep workers in life long poverty. American manufacturing jobs went overseas and caused homelessness and economic hardship for blue collar workers . Now Musk will plan to open a Tesla factory in Mexico and pay poverty wages.

Ohhh if it was her own child I’m sure she wouldn’t be saying that’s ok.., there are many like her out there. They get those papers and they think they work for the White House. If she would’ve visited Mexico and had a kid while visiting and didn’t have the money for a green card it would have been a completely different situation. For those just because you got your papers do you not think that there are people that came here as infants or kids to immigrant parents that came to work to provide for their kids it’s not that easy to get your green card it cost thousands of dollars. Many immigrants that I know and worked with including myself, I came here as a refugee. Immigrants are the hardest working people I know. Unfortunately a lot of the ones that came here as kids grew up in some neighborhoods that are not so great and mainly are kids that were born here that are in gangs or doing drugs or violent so don’t blame immigrants saying they bring all this with them it was already here … drugs gangs violence was already here. Gangs started in the White House with their red and blues. Then they say they are taking all the jobs.. the jobs have always been here but people that are citizens are too lazy to go get jobs or keep jobs ( not all citizens) but the ones that are complaining immigrants usually come from villages without any media or drugs or gangs ect. They simply come here for better opportunities or for jobs. They come to work not to freakin take your jobs… this country everyone is a damn immigrant this country was taken from the natives taken with violence by killing them , rapi!’ Them. And people sit here and say we are here to take back our country… ohhh please stfu!!!!! \nMajority of crimes were committed by our Americans but they look for immigrants and pin their crimes on them… Donald Duck is a damn immigrant he needs to stfu and go to sleep with his pu&@@@ grabbing tiny hands… shame on anyone that supports deportation..

Within 48 hours of TRUMP winning BEFORE HE EVEN GOT MOVED INTO THE WHITE HOUSE. HE ALREADY CALLED TO STOP THE UKRAINE AND RUSSIAN WAR, Iran has AGREED TO CEASE FIRE, HE IS NOT GIVING ANY MORE MONEY TO ZELINSKY, AND INSTEAD USING WHAT WAS GOING TO BE GIVEN TO HIM FOR US. AMERICANS AND VETERANS WHO ARE HOMELESS, AND THE BIGGEST ONE OF ALL, HES DECLARED WAR AGAINST THE MEXICAN CARTELS. DID I ALSO MENTION HE IS LOOKING INTO THE BLUE ACT WHERE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN LAUNDERING MONEY FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES. MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF AMERICANS OT SHOWED THEY DONATED TO THE DEMOCRATS OVER 200 TIMES IN A YEAR WHEN THEY ARE SAYING THEYVE NEVER DONATED. YEAH.. HES INVESTIGATING THAT TOO. ALL WITHIN 48 HOURS… Do your own research and stop watching CNN if you are still a democrat

I don’t believe her. I have lived at the border for 30 years - most at her age got amnesty from Regan. I was a young adult at that time. It was a REALLY big deal with most Americans- and not in a positive way. Voted Blue ????

If Americans don't like the election results, don't move to Canada, move to one of the swing States where they need blue voters.

Now that we know how you Cubans feel. I hope for generations you understand that you have cost yourself millions and billions of potential dollars in tourism for your communities in the future. That’s why the south and Texas will have to cry their own river to deal with what they have created for themselves. The future citizens of the world who look down on Trump and the type of people who vote for him don’t want to come to Florida anymore. We’ll fly all the way to Italy or Africa or the Caribbean. \nSame for other warm states. I could visit them as a wealthier American, but I simply won’t and never will now. That’s okay. \n\nNew York and liberal blue states will always be loved by the world and you all will be looked at as the trash no nothing drop outs who can’t make it in big cities because you’re just not good enough.\n\nIt’s fine to be upset about that, but giving the country over to someone who is cozy with Putin and our enemies? When Russia sits on our national grid again and threatens to turn it off if we don’t follow its demands we’ll see how in control of your country you really are.

47% of Americans voted for Kamala I was one of them and I don’t support deportation. Blue states are not going to comply so we are looking at civil war

20 million chicanos in California? \nAKA Americans with mexican decent? They're very racial, too ? against latin Central americans\nThink about it? Blue states are not Gonna be affected like the red states. Good luck on that one?

Mexico #1 form of legal GDP is the money that legal and illegal immigrants send back to Mexico that money never returns to the USA economy. They also affect supply and demand. So things cost more because there is a higer demand with less supplies and thats simply based on population. I voted Blue , but things like this is why Democrats lose the election. They need to be honest about the long term affects of illegal immigration. And to bring up the cost as if we aren't sending hundreds of billions of aid and resources to other countries that frankly we shouldn't be doing at the rate that we are anymore because the world has benn mooching from Americans and their citizens good will and charity for too long. So this can be paid for without adding any debt. Trump is an idiot but he and Republicans are right on these issues. Democrats seen to treat this issue with kid gloves. The center Democrats like Obama have to return. He deported more immigrants than any president in history, quietly. He didn't start a war or send troops but he dropped more bombs than you can imagine...Quietly. Democrats should have learned a valuable lesson. The world isn't just rainbows and flowers so we cant treat every issue that way

These simple minded individuals are not doing research\n\nHad she did research before Trump took office the first time she would have come across a video of Trump saying it would be nice to have a Country with just Blonde hair and Blue eyes People living in it \n\nWhen the Interviewer asked where would that Country be he replied why not America\n\nThat would leave her out \n\nHad she done her research she would know that \nChina has taken over Mexico as having the most immigrants coming into America \n\nI'm not against Chinese they have a right to come here \n\nMexican's aren't the problem Trump put fear into the minds and hearts of the simple minded Americans \n\nThis Country was built on the backs of Immigrants

LATIN AMERICAN, let's vote BLUE ?️?️?️ KAMALA against this sellout

She will NEVER be a true member of MAGA. They tolerate her but in Maga's eyes she'll always be an outsider. It's like being black and wantimg a membership with the neo-nazis or the KKK. The moment they see no further use in her she'll be dumped. And if Drumpf gets his way she'll be dumped in a mass-deportation camp. And as a traitor in her own family and cultural group she'll never be fully welcomed back. It's just like how the Dutch view the NSB'ers. They betrayed the Dutch, the Jews and every other cultural group despised and hated by the nazi's for their own gain. As such they'll never be seen as trustworthy and as backstabbers the moment they see a chance for themselves.Mexicans, Natuve Americans, black people and any other non-white will always be of less value for Stinky Drumpf than his white christian nationalists, white fascists, white neo-nazis and the basket of low I.Q white deplorables. Draftdodger dumps them too if they have nu further value for him like giving their votes and buying his Chinese made grifting products or giving their domations.\nSo if your African, Mexican, Native American, or just a female who wants to have a say over her own body than Harris/Walz is the only good option. VOTE BLUE!???

She doesn't understand Trump means her too, she'll be deported as well. They won't be deported though, theyll be sent to camps and when its figure out the logistics and expense of deporting that many people is impossible, the camps will become death camps then, an American Final Solution. Vote people, vote blue like lives depend on it, they do.

I lived in L.A. from 77-78. I was called a “snow back” (opposite wet back) always laughed at my “eh”. Made some great friends, in general I was made aware that I was unwelcome and NOT American. Came home haven’t even wanted to visit since.???VOTE BLUE ?Protect the longest unprotected border on the planet ? One World ?

Well thats's expected, Canada has nothing much to be offer except the permanent residence. Quality of our tech education even at top institutions is not top notch. I am in software/machine learning (fancied AI), born Canadian who did bachelor's and master's from University of Waterloo and moved to US for my PhD in 2014. Sorry to break this but even top universities in Canada come nowhere even close to top 20 in US when it comes to American universities. I completed my masters in 2011 and was doin some junk work in Canada as tech industry is light years behind US where all innovations happen. I was literally shocked to see the difference in education and quality of work after coming to US. Canada only wants blue collar workers, realtors and truck drivers.

Pakistan ------> America's blue eyed Beach Boy. It's entire military is American taxpayer funded. And the Pak Army runs the worlds most dreaded terror machinery.

Vote blue for more of this they really care about us Americans ?

I agree that immigration should be regulated based on need or requirement. But let me ask this, are Canadians willing to work in the fields and do all blue-collar jobs for $8/hour? I don't know about Canada, but the problem in the US is that most Americans don't want to do these tasks for low pay so businesses rely on immigrant workers. If businesses pay a higher salary they won't be competitive with foreign companies. There is no easy solution to this. At least Canada doesn't have a green card lottery (which is 100% useless) system but a skilled-based immigration.

Blues need more votes and they dont care if they come from actual americans ?

America on brink of a recession but the dems want to chuck billions at non americans. All the blue states should be welcoming them with open arms.. reap what you sow new yorkers and blue states
