Make no mistake, Trudeau Liberals have been detroying Canadian's way of life far more than Trump could do. He is a liar and wanna be dictator. We need Federal Election Now!

Trump your isolating yourself..your making a big mistake

Not sure whats more disgusting, Trumps delusions or the recent praise for Turdeau due to some basic teleprompt speeches.... Make no mistake viewers, Justin Turdeau is an incompetent hypocrite who's policy's and leadership constantly embarrassed Canada on the world stage and nearly drove the countries lifestyle into the ground. There's a GOOD reason why he became the most hated man in Canada and was forced to resign over Christmas!

As much as I like the message, I just find this is a waste of time to rationalize or reasoning with the orange clown and his uneducated base, like the clown said himself that he loves his uneducated supporters. Just return the favour. That's it. You can't fix stupid. Canada just needs to find more reliable and trust worthy partners. As much as I hate to say, US government can't be trusted. \n\nHey donald, little petty man with small hands. Glad that your trump towers in Toronto and Vancouver failed. You now try to avenge but you are making dumb mistakes to let personal touchy feelings to interfere with country affairs.

I think voting for Trump again is a mistake, that US couldn't afford making. They will lose their No.1 Position at this rate for sure

Trump and all the Americans that support him are making a big mistake. Us Canadians are not going to take this lying down. We will fight to save our country!!!

Gessus crist how dumb a big outlet like cnn to not put 1 and 1 together, to see who is meant do benefit from this, and not name it\nTrump distroyed cia, pentagon and fbi and any governement that could have checked his traitorous a55 that gave usa on a silver platter to russia AND CHINA \ncause make no mistake, ppl were amazed China was slapped with only 10% while allies were attacked viciously . The rethoric against china will change and will see that the excuse of disingage from Europe(translate let it be Putin's) was supposed to concentrate on bigger fish china.\nLike the boiling of the frog u dumb traditional media were complicit in the transformation of usa in a fascist state! You stopped putting pressure on republicans, gave them leeway to giv in to trump blackmail and intimidation, instead of marking ALL THE LIES HE TELLS ALL THE TIME. \nCNN, FOX ETC . Make no mistake, we saw what u did, when the evil axis will form russia china USA, YOU WILL KNOW YOU DID IT.

Why did Canadians dislike this guy so much before all this? Because some Russian trolls on social media disguised as Canadians told them to? That's how we got Trump! It seems like they learned from our mistake. I hope they did. Look, all over the world, things are tough, post pandemic. It's not just your country. You can be patient as left leaning leaders use data and expertise to get things running again...OR you can elect these far right NUTCASES, AND MAKE A MESS THAT IS IRREVERSIBLE! DON'T TRUST THE FAR RIGHT! YOU ARE NOT IN THEIR CLUB. THEY WORK FOR THEMSELVES AND THEMSELVES ONLY, AND WILL TELL YOU WHATEVER LIE YOU NEED TO HEAR TO GET INTO OFFICE.

Make no mistake, Trump will crush you just wait and watch.

Robert De Niro’s statement on Donald is perfect. \n\n “I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly. I see an evil one. Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped. Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them. We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016. The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags. The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse. Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously. So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America: This is our last chance. Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator. And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided. So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls. We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them. Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect. Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity. Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world. Safety for our families. Decency. Let’s welcome them back. We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.””

Make no mistake, what Trump really wants is to put Canada in recession and bankruptcy so he can purchase Canada and make it the 51 State of the Union

Hey Canadians, on behalf of the good people in America... I apologize for the ignorance and stupidity of one EMBARRASSING excuse of a leader that is not only sticking it to Americans in every way you can think ... I refuse to call him a president because he is NOT... He is a convicted felon, convicted on 34 felonies. He is a fraudster, a cheater, a LIAR, a thief, and a THUG! He is not a legal president because he cheated to get elected in the first place because he cheated in 2016 by having his Russian friends interfer in our election by smearing, and launching the wikileaks ĺeak that She had emails from her secratary of state days on an unsecured computer at the DNC Hillary Clinton, merely weeks ahead of the 2016 election.\nTrump also incited a seditious insurection in 2020 after losing that election failing his attempted coup to sieze power in an election he LOST! Donald Trump and many of the GOP that ran for thier lives on Jan. 6th 2021 now refer to the insyrection as a peacful gathering of non violent protesters... Trump calls it the best day ever!!! Think about that for a minute! The very first order of business Trump did after his inauguration was to pardon 1500 crimina convicts that either plead guilty or were found guilty of charges like sedition. And insurectionists. Many of them for violent crimes like battery on a police officer. And other charges loke trespassing on a federal building, and theft charges for stealing laptops and all sorts of things.\nDonald Trumps first act was to free all of them with a wave of a pen... he freed police bashers!!! And scum bags like Elmer Rhoads, and leader of the proud boys Enrique Tarrio... and all tge violent punks that tried to overturn a free and fair election!!! I is disgusting! HE a k so pardoned the biggest drug dealer in America that catered to criminals and murderers, the owner and inventer of the silk roads dark web site.\nTrump is a Russian asset, make no mistake about it. And fir the last 40 days or so he set about to burning down all American institutions with the help of his Billionaire campaign donors that agreed to get him elected for MORE MONEY!!! Trump is turningvon our trusted allies all friends, and siding with countries like Russua, North Korea, Iran, Turkey, and other countries that are under the control of string men autocrats, and dictators! He publicly called our friend and ally Vlidomir Zelenskyy a dictator! While at the same time calling Vladimir Putin a genius, and a really smart guy that wants peace he says!\nVladimir Putin is the worlds most cold blooded mass murderer of our lifetime and he is a war criminal that kills mostly civilians, women and children deliberatly!!! He poisons his political opponents and business partners with plutonium and other ways like having them thrown out a high ruse window, or shit from the sky in an airplane!!!\nDonald Trump is a maniac that Ameruca needs to desperately get rid of before he finishes the job of burning down all our institutions and burning our constitution and democracy in order to turn Ameruca into an autocracy...\nSo, Canadians.... we Americans are deeply embarrassed and we apologize for the reckless behavior of one man!! One ignorant man... Donald Trump. There has never been a more shameful and embarrassing time to be an American! Eff Trump!!!

MAKE NO MISTAKE: TRUMP'S GOAL IS GLOBAL LEADER IN DICTATORSHIP . CRANK: CHINA RUSSIA ASIA (IRAN) NORTH KOREA. TRUMP HAS ABANDONED DEMOCRACY.

MAKE NO MISTAKE: TRUMP'S GOAL IS ECONOMIC MILITARY AND POLITICAL LEADERSHIP IN CRANK: CHINA RUSSIA ASIA (IRÁN) NORTH KOREA. TRUMP IS A GLOBAL THUG.

This is a great man and president much respect for this man and Canadian, country this makes me feel very bad this president trump is making enemies everywhere it makes me sick it was a mistake voting for him good thing I didn’t

CNN needs to realize its role in this, as everyone knew what Trump would do, but you didn't care enough about the black vote to listen to what they wanted. Make no mistake. The black voters held their nose and voted for Obama a second term, but when he did nothing but insult us, we stayed home on Hillary and we got Trump. Trump was an overt racist, so you scared enough black voters and we held our nose and voted for Biden, but we made it clear that scare tactics would only work once. You Doubled down in 2024 and you lost miserably this time, Double down again, and you may lose your party. For the record, there is no voter's remorse for those who stayed home.

Trump's going to bankrupt the U.S. just as he has many of his businesses. As an American, I can't wait to move up to Canada. I'm absolutely embarrassed to be a born and raised American citizen. I'm embarrassed and ashamed by many other fellow citizens and by the choices the current government is making. I'm also continually perplexed and ashamed by the continued mistakes our country continues to make every damn year and decade.

The Trump recession began yesterday. I fully support our great neighbor to the North, and my favorite foreign country in the world. Canada did not pick this fight, Trump did.\nTo everyone that voted for Trump, don’t complain as our economy descends into a chaotic recession, people get screwed out of Social Security and Medicaid, gas prices go up and groceries cost more. \nYou made a mistake. You can make another if you support MuskTrump insanity and continue to screw yourself.

Oh, make no mistake,, Trump doesnt care about phent. why would he care about an addict, or an overdose from a someone who doesnt vote,,, Stop it!

Americans make a big mistake by voting for Trump...an arrogant and self centred person...

The rubble that Trump is creating will be the foundation upon which socialism in America will rise, like a Phoenix from the ashes. What we are seeing is the end-stage of corrupt, crony capitalism in service to the fascist oligarchs and their colluding industrial cartels. Make no mistake about this: An oligarchy is a fascist state. A kleptocracy in service to a soulless minority. A cult of personality.

This jerk is making a big mistake. If I were trump I would spend the next 4 years manufacturing everything Canada imports and wish them luck?

What in this world did USA expect. trump the person that performed lewd acts on a microphone. 34 counts convicted felon. trump is trying to hurt America. Make there be no mistake about. Look how musk is taking a chainsaw against American Vets that work in the government. Then displayed an act with a chainsaw on national TV like it is a funny joke. trump is pitiful. A menace and a criminal. 6 times bankruptcy business fool. And there are so many other foul acts trump has taking against the American people. All I can say is seat back and feel the pain trump has and still will cause our country.

Excellent speech, PM Trudeo we are watching from United Kingdom, and President Trump is making the biggest mistake. American public needs to raise a voice.

Making a mistake by validating the BS lie via stating everything that Canada is doing against fentanyl. “Don’t wrestle with pigs, you both get dirty and the pig likes it”. \n\nDumb Americans don’t understand what 1.3 B $ border plan is, they don’t know if that is enough and you’re placing yourself in a position of 1) recognizing the problem as legitimate, and 2)“are you doing enough”. Call it for what it is, bullshit - It was never about safety and fentanyl was a lame unfounded excuse. Know your audience, don’t fall into the Trump trap and speak in simple terms.

This is the type of speech hard to listen to, the type of speech you need to give to a country about to go war, make no mystake, thats what this is, and this is also the type of speech that shows who is and who is not fit for leadership, Trudeau you made mistakes when you were younger, but who didnt, but you sure matured to be a leader who can make people follow you from youre words alone, im glad we have a president in south america with such caracther on the side of reason and peace, with all the doomlike scenarios i conjure from seeying Trump pulling the USA to side with Russia and only imagine russia joining nazi germany just to get also screwed as soon as russia gets the chance and trump is clueless about it, youre speech eased my mind a bit, thank you and thank you to all the people of Canada

Trump is a big mistake for American. After 4 years in office, US will regret voting Donald Trump.\nThis is not the way to make US great. Imagine putting fights in all ur allies. That is a wrong fight. Change ur useless policies or US will go down in history from great nation to isolated nation. No nation can suceed alone. America is great today because of other nations. Time will tell

The American people have made their choice. Now the rest of the world will make theirs. Electing Trump the first time was a mistake. Electing him again was catastrophically foolish.

I'm with Mr. Trudeau! Thank you good sir! Make Trump pay for his mistakes! The American people will soon tell Trump and his despicable minions to take a hike. Let's pray for their wisdom.

This is all just a pretense for Trump (Not the US) to invade Canada, with the blessing of China and Russia. Make no mistake, this is an axis of evil trying to establish a new world order. This is just the beginning of the coming storm. Good luck to the free world; we’re going to need it.

Make no mistake. The Tariff talk started right after Canada's reaction to Trump's demand that Canada become the 51st state. That's what this is all about. Nothing to do with Fentynal. You can bet Putin had a hand in this as well. Well done US. You are now a Puppet State of Russia. How long before Russian replaces Spanish as the second, and then first language of the US?

Does Canada have a Department of Defense? The lack of respect is wild. Donald..? President Trump is the protocol. He represents the office of the United States of America. Make no mistake ask UK and Ukraine to provide defense. Pull the plug no need to be called a predator by your own neighbor... ?

He makes me proud to be Canadian, and make no mistake, trump won’t win this war…it’s not just us, the EU just announced €800 billion in retaliatory tariffs. Mexico is also hitting back hard..the only winner of this trade war is the super wealthy, but that won’t last, when we all refuse to buy any of the products that benefit them. The best way to hurt the rich, is by turning them into poor people!

As a Canadian my personal politics may not always be in line with other citizens of the world, however I can respectfully agree to disagree, allowing more dialogue and discussion to continue in order to reach an agreeable compromise to find the best winning formula for all concerned. \nI have watched and listened to many American politicians from John F Kennedy to Joe Bidden, to leaders like Marin Luther King, Malcolm X, Bernie Saunders, all have something in common, respect, decorum, world knowledge, integrity, truth, honesty, honour, and heart. \nStrength is when you are able to reach out to lift someone up not to knock them down. Even the greatest professional boxers know the difference of being humble and kind when there advisory is in trouble. \nFor the first time in the history of your country you have a bully, narcissist and pathological liar, who is vulgar and unpolished as a man, father and as the President of your nation.\nI have seen our own Canadian leaders, make mistakes, stumble and fail, however they displayed grace and admitted to their shortcomings.\nI have never seen a world leader be obsessed with things such as plastic straws, pennies, flushing toilets, Hannibal Lecter, Arnold Palmer's manhood, a leader who's completely obsessed with selling souvenir and bubbles while his citizens are homeless, hungry, jobless, with runaway inflation so that something as simple as a dozen eggs are now a luxury item. \n\nYou have a president who spends millions of dollars so that he can play golf at one of his own properties, meanwhile his country is neglected. \nA brief look at his past record the pandemic under his watchful eye would have you drink bleach as a cure as many died and billionaires increased their combined wealth by trillions of dollars while the middle class and poor suffered. \nThe opioid crisis was settled under his watch which let Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family avoid jail time for committing the death and destruction of millions of lives in America. Yet Donald Trump is obsessed with the drug cartels in other countries yet he overlooks those terrorist in his own country. Is it because they are billionaires and potential cronies of his?\nRather than be completely obsessed with tariffs and creating the next disaster with his Trump Gaza Holocaust Resort, Your leader could be looking at fixing the country's infrastructure of roads, brides, tunnels, ensuring a healthy supply of drinking water, rail, housing for the homeless, affordable health care, affordable education, etc.\n\nDonald Trump is surrounded by his clowns is not just making a mockery of your country but is leading you into a very dark hole. \nThe shame and humiliation that Donald Trump has brought to your country since his inauguration will take years to correct if he is stopped now. If you the American people wait four years, WW Three will be here and it will take centuries to recover. \nTHE FUTURE IS NOW, NOT IN FOUR YEARS. AS AMERICANS YOU MUST BE WILLING TO ENSURE A TOMORROW FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.... UNDER THE CURRENT REGIME YOU ARE HEADED TO A DEAD END.

As a anti Trudope I'm actually impressed by his speech today, but make no mistake he's trying to stir up the relationship between Trump and the American ppl all to make his party look good to us.

OH CANADA! Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of YOU and your Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Do NOT let Donald Trump ruin your way of life. It has been pristine for way too long. Hang in there, stay strong, we Americans are behind you. I am so ashamed of the people that put Agent Orange and his hillbilly in charge. We will fight, make no mistake, we will fight for the real America and for you too. I was born in Deep River, Ontario in 1954. My original family originates in Miramichi (formally New Castle), New Brunswick. I still own 45 hectares in Miramichi. I was brought here by my parents. They would be so ashamed. I think it is time I came back home. ♥️☘️

I am sorry, but smart people don't make mistakes like Trump!

Netherlands here: Trump HAS to impose tariffs because he promised it a zillion times during his campaign. As a major narcissist he cannot afford to say that he made a mistake, and therefor: tariffs. I predict however that this period will not last very long. Only as long as necessary to make it possible for Trump to say that they didn't work out as planned because of some reason.

If Trumps' aim is to somehow go down in history as the President who stopped the Ukraine Russo war he is making a big mistake. By acquiescing to Putin he will just go down as a traitor to his country, and the Western Allies.

Canada is already heading into an economic crisis, and what Trudeau just did might be the final nail in the coffin. This is his last big mistake — and he’ll soon blame Trump’s policies to cover up his own failures.\n\nLet’s be clear: Trump’s tariff policies aren’t some random attack — they’re based on a simple reality: The U.S. doesn’t need Canada. Here’s why:\n\nEconomy Size Comparison:\n\nU.S. GDP (2024): Over $28 trillion\nCanada GDP (2024): Around $2.3 trillion\nThe U.S. economy is more than 12 times larger than Canada’s — the leverage is completely one-sided.\nTrade Imbalance:\n\n75% of Canadian exports go straight to the U.S. — Canada’s economy depends on the American market to survive.\nMeanwhile, only around 12-15% of U.S. exports go to Canada. The U.S. can replace Canadian goods easily through Mexico, Europe, or Asia, but Canada has no backup plan for losing U.S. access.\nPopulation and Consumer Base:\n\nU.S. population: Over 330 million\nCanada: Around 40 million\nThe U.S. is 8 times the market size, meaning American businesses would always prioritize the U.S. market over Canada.\nNatural Resources & Energy:\n\nCanada’s oil, gas, and timber exports rely heavily on U.S. buyers.\nThe U.S. is already the world’s top producer of oil and gas thanks to its shale industry — it can easily survive without Canadian energy.\nCanada, on the other hand, would struggle to find new customers fast enough to avoid collapse.\n\nDefense & Global Influence:\nThe U.S. holds dozens of trade agreements with major powers like the EU, Japan, South Korea, and Mexico.\nCanada’s economy relies heavily on U.S. investment, which could be cut off or redirected if necessary.\nBottom line: Trudeau is dragging Canada into a crisis of his own making. He’s gambling with his country’s economic future, knowing full well that in any economic war with the U.S., Canada loses — fast. When the fallout hits, Trudeau will shift the blame to Trump, but the facts are clear: Canada needs the U.S. far more than the U.S. needs Canada.

I love Canadian people I do not like your leader. He sounds righteous today. Make no mistake of the Skeltons this man has. I do support President Trumps decision we neen to make changes for our country as do you guys have to do. Better days are coming us all things will get rough for a while. Loll to your leader to do his part for your country. He needs to get creative business wise instead of putting blame. Why is your leader looking to fight he should be thinking about how to solve problems and create business. I love Canadians We will get through this. Bucket up thing will get rough for all of us we all have to make changes. We believe in Donald Trunp and the many men and woman that have stepped up to change this country. May God be with us all may we get thought rough times may these wars come to and end.

I think we might be making a mistake by saying that Trump is being played by Putin. I am beginning to believe more so that he is an agent of Russia with a sense of agency and the people being played are the people choosing to work for him.

You all around the world, making the mistake of siding with foolish leaders who's own public do not support them against Donald Trump--when the majority of Americans do--will feal the wrath of every single American, who is sick of being bullied by you. We do not have to pay your bills. We do not have to keep your country safe. Keep running your mouth, CNN and dividing this country and the world with your lies. Everyone knows Zelenskyy was disrespectful to Biden and Trump and Vance--who we owe nothing to. Ukraine is not an ally of ours. Ukraine will never be allowed to NATO. And all of you can enjoy the tariffs. We don't need you we don't model our behavior after you. You'll never be America. You will never understand what it means to be American. You will never come into our Oval Office and disrespect our president, Democrat, or Republican and get away with it. Shame on you for your lies! You know better but you get paid well. This is why your ratings are in the tank and only those lacking any logical critical thinking still watch you.

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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The relationship between Canada and the US is because of Trudeau. He isn’t getting his way so he is making a huge mistake with his disrespect toward our Great President Trump. Canadians want Trudeau to step down. \nHow do I know? I have a huge number of relatives there. My mother was born there and my dad served honorably in the Royal Canadian Navy during the second World War.\nTrudeau is and always has been hateful toward Canadians. Canadians do not respect or like him. \nBy the way… we are boycotting CNN.

Make no mistake- Canadians are individually fighting back by boycotting all US products and looking for Canadian alternatives. Our social media is flooded with “Buy Canadian” only. Too bad. Trump sucks

Make no mistake. . . Trump is after CANADA. Donnie, we are NOT your Louisiana Purchase. We are NOT your Alaska Acquisition.\n\nTrump thinks he is smart, and regardless of what Trudeau said. . . Smartness is measured by actions.

The line has been crossed. America is now an enemy and axis power. Make no mistake about it. This is not posturing on the Republican side. It's deliberate, planned, and thought out. Trump IS on Russia's side.

Real Canadian here, born and raised in BC since the 80s, served in the 39 signal regiment. Make no mistake, Trudeau dug our grave, lowered our coffin. Trump only hammered the last nail.

Trump chose to do this its not Canadas choice and I simple do not see how its justified. This is a tax on Americans make no mistake its OUR prices that will go up as well as Canadians. This sure smells of Russian influence to me, its almost as if Trump is trying to hurt America, he is for sure tearing up the Government. If Putin had a wish list separating us from our staunch allies would be #1
