Then why Canadian government allowing bad people to their country 😂

F Trudeau, he's ruined this country for the last 9yrs. He's the reason we can't survive the tariffs because he taxes the canadian citizens far more than any other country.

If we had our own of anything we would have been using them! Thats why we buy these goods from these other countries! The American people as well as Canadian are not equipped financially to handle this right now. We literally are fighting to survive. Not the rich folks, they are fine. They may not see the consequences of these choices but the working people that work everyday..... this is gonna literally kill us! People wake tf up!

Donald, in his whole time as a 'leader' (which he clearly isn't) never ever was able to even close hold a speach like this. And he never will be. He is just not a smart man. This decision was a big big mistake. Thanks to Mr. Trudeau for standing up against this characterless BULLY. The Canadians must be so proud of you. I just hope Mexico ( and all the rest of us 'willing countrys') will do the same. I do feel sorry for all the american people who saw this coming and have to suffer now. I hope this all ends well. Sending blessings from Germany.

Canadians have a real deep down patriotism. We don't scream our country's name at every event, wrap ourselves in our flag, etc. But we adore our country, it's the way best in this big complicated world. We don't feel we must say it all the time because we KNOW it.

I live in the best country in the world and I have the best Prime Minister in the world. I couldn’t be more proud of Justin Trudeau. We will fight and we will come together. That’s what Canadians do.

Canadians are stopping travel plans to UsA & we are buying Canadian food & from other countries instead of buying anything from USA way to go turnpy

Lol, what a dummy. Doesn't her know that that doesn't work that way? Sure go ahead and go for it, america accounts for almost 80% of Canada's total goods and service exports ? what makes this even more worse for Canada's prime minister is the fact that they recieve just over 60% of imports from guess who.... the United States. Where as america has the ability to stop all trade to canada all together, be just fine with the reserves we have. While increasing trade import and export with another country we already do business with, making them very happy in the process and still making huge savings in the process. When 80% and 60% of your exports and imports respectively. Consists of literally sharing its only common border with the united states would mean a complete scrap of the total infrastructure since they would hace then compensate through sea and air through the arctic and distances of 10x of what they are used to. Then it starts to make sense as to why trump wants Greenland. Look this it just a bluff by the Canadian prime minister that supposedly resigned not long ago but his tyrant ass don't really wanna leave. Plus, you really think dude can make up for all that loss and go find it through another contry? Hahaha? yeah okay good luck with that. Canada shoukd ne disappointed in the man even more. He's not for you, he's for himself and the best for him and the other lobbyists. ???

Gee…what a surprise! ….NOT! \nThe most toxic person in the world who LOVES to create chaos & division has stirred up a bees nest in countries all around the world. That’s what Trump does. Chaos, division, hard feelings & bitterness are his forté. \nThat’s the leader America has chosen over someone with common sense, intelligence, & who would have tried to unite the American ppl & create an economy that would be stable & help the majority of Americans because Kamala IS like the majority of Americans. She understands the struggle of trying to making a living when you’re not born into wealth like Trump was.\nHe can’t relate to the struggles of the average American family trying to earn enough to provide for their families. He’s never known that struggle. \nAnd why should he care if he causes ppl on both sides of the border to lose jobs, & consequently lose their homes? He’s rich. He can afford the higher costs of everything in both countries that he is initiating. He chose this trade war because he wants to take over Canada. \nWhat is wrong with Americans who thought voting him in AGAIN was a great idea over the common sense & economic stability Kamala Harris offered? He TOLD you he was going to do this. \nYou ppl who voted for him KNEW his past history. He’s a proven liar, a cheat, a fraud, a scammer, a sexist, a predator of vulnerable women, & a convicted felon..\nAnd more than anything else, he’s a BULLY! He uses his words with his bull horn & public media to speak against anyone who opposes him to try to subtly motivate his MAGA hounds to attack the ppl & their families that actually tell the truth about him. And then he steps aside & waits for his minions to respond & acts totally innocent as if he is not responsible because he did not directly tell them to go after the ppl he very purposely speaks hostile about. WAKE UP! He IS responsible because he knows very well his words have power to influence ppl to take action. \nAnd too many cowards in the Supreme Court & Republican party including his own VP Mike Pence were all too afraid to speak up against him. \nIf the majority of Americans want such a toxic person for leader, that’s America’s poor choice but Canada wants NO PART in his BS.\nHands off Canada because we WILL stand united & will support our governments efforts & the efforts of other Canadians to withstand against Trump’s bullying tactics.\nBUY CANADIAN!

more bull shyte from trudeau. fact: tariffs hurt the people who buy the goods. so canadian tariffs on usa goods means: CANADIANS WILL PAY MORE FOR USA GOODS! just as usa consumers will pay more for canadian goods subject to usa tariffs. if canada wants to return a punch, find other markets, trade with other countries, rid canada of the festering relationship it has with this facist state, usa. \nrealitycheck: both leaders( the turd and comb over clown) are supercharging inflation in their respective countries with this play acting of a trade war.

I feel bad for the Americans , they put him there to be their President as they are hoping to have a better life . I’m sure some who voted for him now have the regrets as they didn’t expect that to him . I love that Canadian President he has a good state of mind thinking what is best for his country . He wanted to end the war between Ukraine and Russia but he is starting his own war , ridiculous ?

I'm not Canadian but I love Canada. Awesome people, awesome country. I'm 100% on your side. Trudeau rocks - he's smart, intelligent and honest. Please keep him as PM. Come to Europe, come to Australia & NZ. We love you guys, The tariffs are outrageous and disgusting and total kudos for standing up to the bully.

I'm in the middle east. My mom was Canadian born and my dad American. I support Canada. Trump is mad cuz he can't take over Canada as the 51st state. Canada has a secure border. The border crisis is BS.\n\nThe things that you import from the US, import from UK, Australia, France etc.\n\nThis is what the country I live has done. You find very few US products now. Most imports are coming in from the UK, Australia, France, Greece etc.

Although I agree with the Canadian government they must be careful.The United States is a very strong country that is self reliant. But good wishes

Trudeau, let’s talk about the Canadian truck drivers and what you did to them…. Canada is lucky this dude’s gone in a couple days. You need a real man leading your country not half a woman.

Most of the people don’t realize that Trudeau has helped people and businesses during COVID and avoided millions of deaths unlike US. He did really well curbing the inflation by increasing the interest rates and decreasing it back in time, has been polite to all the haters at the same time and brought enough workers into Canada to prosper the country and businesses on the right path. 2/3rd of the Canadian population disagrees, and that’s sad. God Bless Him Forever.

Go Canadian’s! \nFrom one Commonwealth Country to another Australia!??\nImagine the world going against America! I’d like to see that! Bullies.

Makes me so proud to be Canadian! Thank you JT. Makes me emotional listening to this. Canada is not a perfect country but we try, we try!

Doland is sucking money from canadian and american citizens will pay for it.\nif Donald do this to more countries american goverment will be damn rich.\nThis is typical selfish businessman...

Please don’t resign Trudeau we the Canadians need you right now. I don’t want Trump to have Canada ?? I am with Trudeau all the way when it comes to saving our country. Please Canadians we the ones who were born in Canada ?? don’t want US to take over our country and make it part of US do we?? \nI am so proud that our Government Trudeau is speaking out to Trump . ????

Based on the trade data, Canada would likely be in a worse position in a trade war with the United States. Here's why:\n\n1. Canada sends approximately 75% of its total exports to the US, while the US only sends about 18% of its exports to Canada. This creates a significant asymmetry in dependency.\n\n2. The US economy (around $27 trillion) is roughly 13 times larger than Canada's economy (about $2.1 trillion), giving the US more cushion to absorb economic shocks.\n\n3. he US typically runs a trade deficit with Canada (approximately $135 billion in goods in 2023), which means Canada sells more to the US than it buys, making Canadian producers more vulnerable to US tariffs.\n\n4. The US has more diversified export markets globally, while Canada is heavily reliant on the US market.\n\nThat said, a trade war would harm both countries:\n\n- Highly integrated supply chains, especially in automotive manufacturing, would be disrupted\n- Border regions in the US would face significant economic impacts\n- US consumers would face higher prices for Canadian goods (energy, raw materials)\n- Specific US industries dependent on Canadian inputs would face challenges\n\nWhile Canada would likely face more severe macroeconomic consequences, a trade war would ultimately be lose-lose, damaging industries and consumers on both sides of the border.

jUSTIN you blew every China man you could, you trained their military they are a hell of alot worse than Russia. Did you forget COVID they unleashed on the entire world - your buddies. You spineless creature why did you not stop the Fentanyl? You have free loaded off of us for too long - Americans really don't need Casto's kid giving us advise. Americans love the Canadian people but we laugh and shake our heads at your government. We will have Green land and you will be surrounded - better get the Canadian Burka girls fighting for you. Every move you make is 10 moves behind - you are a country of our Draft Dodgers from the 60's and Islamic misfits - you are leaving a mess for your replacement.

I can't stand CNN = Communist News Network, and I don't care for Trueau but I'm going to have to stand with him on this. Trump is being absolutely rediculous that is going to hurt the poor and working class poor in both countries, Canada as well as America. I sincerely appologize to the Canadian people because my President who said he would make America great again has instead lost his mind and has went off on some insane tangent that will not hurt him or his rich friends (On both sides of the political fence).....Now Mexico that is where the garbage is coming from.

The Europeans, Ukrainians and Canadians are standing up for their countries ? What about Americans? If they don't take back contol of their country, we are all going to suffer big time.

Canada responding puts Canada in a worse position. \n Canada not helping in the fight against fentanyl is obviously false, that being said the mass Immigration policy of Justen trued has made it easy for cartels' to smuggle in narcotics, not only that but the immigrants cause waves of crime, rippling from generation to generation. which hurts Canadians quite a bit. Immigration from the US to Canada would not hurt Canadians as much as from all the third world countries that they currently have their immigration system setup to accept. \nCanada's official statistics for narcotics coming in cannot be trusted. there is the fact that when someone is caught with narcotics they don't actually get to bring in those drugs. \nCanada's border is also entirely bypassed by plane so it doesn't matter how strong they make their borders.\nthe best response to the tariffs would be to remove all those god awful restrictions put in place on Canadian enterprise.

trudeau is proven a back stabber in many diplomacy. canada is never a fair country but slave to US master. They obey all US demands even has fake democracy. Under US order, canada imprisoned or held anyone who are innocent and has nothing against canadian law. trudeau isnt polite but too rude with calling other murderous dictator when he is also a real proven dictator. Has he forgotten canada has murdered, colonize, terrorize, destroy, plunder, rob, bullt, gangster other countries too with US master. Shame on trudeau incompetence and still talk rubbish till today.

To think that Canadians would want to become part of the US simply shows just how deluded certain Americans are about their own country.

I feel his sinceriy for the people, not just for Canadians. Im from Philippines but I hope things will turn for good for both neighboring country.

As a Brit... I've been to Canada many times (the first time as a soldier in 1981) and of late in the likes of BC, I've fished there. Love, love, love Canada and the Canadians. I've been to America too, and I love it there also. And while I'm not always a good judge of people...I flatter myself I'm a VERY good judge of character. And oh man, have they ever got it wrong with this Trump fella. Now there's a bloke I would not like to find myself in a combat situation since he'd likely shoot me in the back and run the other way. I just find myself asking how on earth it has come to this. How can they possibly think that a person such as this is a fit bloke to lead their country. Hitler? Don't talk to me about Hitler America. Honestly, it would make you want to weep...

Canadians are Fvcked**. everything in their country before is expensive now its going to be more. US can absorb this tariffs and feel it after 5-10 years but canadians will feel it on day 1. while trump slowly lifting sanctions and trade again with china and rusia. EU and canada will have no choice but to stay in status quo becoz of their anti dictatorship and liberal position. US is very smart.

What makes Donald Trump think Canada would want any part of this shit storm current Trump‘s first term the Canadian immigration website crashed as people were trying to be out of here. Canada definitely has more sensible leadership why our country is led by a grifter who has turned a lot of sensible and educated Americans into zombies or should I say he’s like the big bully on the playground someone should’ve told Donald Trump that you get more flies with honey than vinegar

you call Putin a lying ,murderous dictator but Neytanyahu the prime minister of Israel who is committing a genocide is an angel .What a joke .An advice look after Canadians because what you have done to this beautiful country is mind blowing and pretty sad .

What a great speech Mr Trudeau! So articulate. I’m so proud to be Canadian and to have had you as the face of our GREAT country??❤️❤️

About time. Not a USA citizen nor a Canadian citizen. Trump is looking after the USA. Not any other country. Country leaders can learn from this. The left is over.

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.

So now the government in Canada wants to defend us & tell us to stand united but in the past decade this country has turned into trash as they gave it away with an open door of Indians taking over and not giving AF about the people born and raised here - the adds on the radio ask us to keep our money in Canada and untie, but we dont even have a Canadian culture left anymore and people living here long enough know its true unfortunately, this was a great place to live but they destroyed it long before this issue - cost of living, housing crisis, immigration, gangs, crime etc. - If they want to keep letting people in here then start a service to help us get out and relocate before asking for help from the people you hurt

What a great speech Mr Trudeau! So articulate. I’m so proud to be Canadian and to have had you as the face of our GREAT country??❤️❤️

Canada is our friend, our best friend, he is absolutely right. i'm sorry that my country is insane, Canadians.

Trudeau, I know you will never see this comment, but thank you for having the moral fiber to address the people of my country with such concern. Thank you to every Canadian for showing us what real strength is in a country. I'm so sorry that we are not reciprocating as a country, you deserve better.

Pierre Poilievre for PRIME MINISTER KEEP CANADA ?? THE BEST COUNTRY WORLDWIDE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I LOVE CANADA AND PIERRE POILIEVRE WILL PROTECT ALL OF CANADIANS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Bravo to BRAVE CANADIAN PRIME MINISTER and All the Canadian Citizens and all the PROVINCIAL LEADERS .\nKeep up ? with the good work ?????\nWe are good neighbors and friends with American Citizens .\nWe will not allow any one to ? BULLY ? us into subjugation and slavery .\nThe whole ? world ? is open for Trading with ,\n? CANADA ? . \nAnd we the CANADIAN CITIZENS and Our Country ? CANADA ? ???

I'm American and even though it hurts you are doing the right thing. Wish my country didn't do the terrif put on you Canadian. So hold on my Canadian friends

Trudeau should be the last person to talk about making sense. Emboldened Khalistanis, encouraged illegal immigration, took the country down the tube. Radicals burning Canadian flag in the heart of Canada in pro- Palestine rallies. What step has he taken about it? At least Trump is “America first” president. Trudeau on the other hand is “everthing at expense of Canada”! Hopefully with right wing in administration in Canada, Trump will deescalate this. But all bets are off with him. \nAnyway, USA will never have Canada. People sacrificed themselves defending Canada’s sovreignty in the past. We will never give up Canada to anyone.

Trudo can't understand that US sanctions will affect Canada 1000 times more than Canadian sanctions on the USA. Canada is a poor country and counterattacking USA it's like shooting in your own leg. USA slaps own leg and Canada shoots in own leg. Stupid move Trudo, very stupid.

Im sorry this man is all for the mutilation of children, his country despises him and hes trying to jump on the bandwagon so people forget he is the worst canadian leader to ever be in office.

From Texas, Trump is acting like a 5-year-old child. Canada has always been our closest ally; these tariffs are a slap in the face that will harm not only working class American, but it also spits on generations of close friendship and trust between our countries. This is lunacy. I pray for all of our Canadian friends and for all Americans.

Canadian here. This trade war has nothing to do with fentanyl! Trump wants to take over Canada, and Canadians will not stand for that! We are a sovereign nation and I hope that Americans can understand that we will not tolerate an attack on our country

I'm Italian and I wish my country, and every country, had a Prime Minister as Mr. Trudeau. If I were Canadian I would mumble before substituting him.\n??

Canadian here- ?? \nThis is the Prime Minister we wanted 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 years ago:) \nGood to see him do something for the country finally

You’re welcome your country is safe!!! The Canadian boarder wall is AMERICA.
