Trump should know that retaliation from Canada and China and Mexico brings down USA to its knees, From now on I don’t buy any American products as a Canadian, Whole Canadian are united behind their government in this matter.

I hope my fellow Americans in the United State hear this! This is what a leader sounds like. This was POWERFUL!! I'm so embarrassed. This is completely insane. Frump, look what you're doing!!

In Canada, there is a lot of divisiveness between our conservative and liberal political parties. But what is incredible is how much support Trudeau holds in this trade war conflict . While his reign is nearly over, nationally all political parties have come together (in majority numbers) for a unified approach. Trump has single-handedly ostracized the United States from the rest of the world.

Can we please have Justin Trudeau as our president here in the United States!

Y’all will stop at nothing to demonize the President of the United States. Shame on you

Trump needs to be impeached ! He is an embarrassment to the United States ! All he worry’s about eating McDonald’s and golf !

Wait until Trump sends his troops into Canada. MAGA , musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Putin, and North Korea are right behind him. You used to be a democracy like America was. America was once known as the United States of America. MAGA has forced the world to call that former great country Shitland.

America's NEW Flag ?? at least you will still be able to call it the RED WHITE AND BLUE ... ya'll will be the 22 Republic of Russia ..\nUSSA , United Soviet State of America.?? Cheers to Donnie Hip hip hooray , ? Vlads gonna have you over for tea... ?? FAFO

The united state have the devil running there country

I was always remember the trade between united states and Canada \n So brave

Know what it is is Canadian Canada is standing up with the EU, which has basically been fucking the United States for so long and all the Democrats have gotten in all y’all‘s bureaucratic fucking heads which is not Democrats no more they are bureaucrats American people are tired of it we are tired of paying debts while others set back and enjoy their lives while the American people slave because every one resents us they don’t give a shit about us

We in the United States are going to enter a recession very soon, all because 51% of voters thought that people using pronouns was a bigger issue than our economy. Trump has been bankrupt 6 times and didn't know that tariffs are paid by consumers. Congratulations, you can now call that transgender person a ' he ' as you lose your job.

United States production is stepping up. Canada is fucked.

What is it all about! , The top 1% want the war machine wants and needs war! To give the false sense that we’re all united against the enemy! Europe is no longer a battleground for war. The Europeans are too smart! Wag the dog scenario, create an enemy for America And use Canada as the battleground so simple.

'WE two friends fighting is exactly what our OPPONENTS want to see' (Capitalisations mine) \n\nWhy is everyone so afraid to acknowledge and/or accept the fact that OUR opponents are not HIS opponents? They are his friends and his idols. He admires these people. He wants to BE these people. He is a danger not only to the United States, but to the entire world. Donald Trump will destroy everything we have ever known and relied upon regarding democracy and the worldwide rules-based system that we have all relied upon for 80 years now. Why won't anyone say that?

From Portugal, I am with Canada and all the countries and peoples who were victims of Trump. \nI never thought I would see a North American President ally with his traditional enemies and create enmity with his traditional friends and allies... all this in one month of government. We have to expect the worst and be united.

I’d like to welcome Alberta to the United States. There are no federal tariffs for state to state sales.

To be enemy of the United States is dangerous, to be friend is fatal.

As a European I stand with Canada. I lived in the Us and many Americans are wonderful. However this administration has lost its values and soul. Canada and the E.U should work together closely. And why not join the E.U? Our values are the same. And We must be united against he great imperialists threats coming from Russia and, now, America. \nAs a consumer I decided to boycott American products whenever possible. I had planned to travel to America on vacation but I will cancel that for the next 4 years at least. I hope many will join us in the “boycott American products” movement?

At what point has the American army the duty to take Trump & his goons into custody?\nThey all swore allegiance to protect the constitution of the United States.

I stand with Canada and I am ashamed of the United States.

United we stand! Greetings from ??

Canadians are united ?. America is divided. As a matter of fact every country in the world is united but America is divided, this isn’t going to end well for someone.

United we stand! Greetings from ??

The only Leader you need to see speak today. The leadership the United States of America needs.

Trump don't care about nobody but himself things are about to get hard in the United States That's for sure if you ain't got a million dollars you're screwed

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

This might just be one of the most articulate and impactful speeches of modern day history.\nI'm genuinely so envious that the United States doesn't have a leader like Canada does currently. I, like many other Americans, stand with Canada on this! ❤

The president of the United States is doing what's best for his country now. CNN along with this unpopular jerk just have a democ(rat) agenda ?

UNITED WE STAND! DIVIDED WE FALL! Even though the world is burning, we, the people need to stand together, even if some of our leaders go full R-word. We the people, in the west must stand together. Or all is lost.

For all the ignorant people who know nothing about history between United States and Great Britain. Remember that the great queen Elizabeth’s allowed her grand sons, both of them to join us in at least two wars in the last 40 years.!!!!the UK RULES CANADA! Not one, but two large countries that stand with us the largest that there are.

Please, Mr. Trudeau understand the United States did not do that Donald Trump. Did we love our neighbors, true Americans, love our neighbors and understand how important they are.✌?❤️

I Nominate Justin Trudeau for President of the United States!

Michigander here. Good to see a country united that still has integrity. My apologies to Canada. The United States has become unrecognizable

Again Canada backstabbing Mexico , Mexico’s other so called trading partner, by siding with the United States in calling the cartels “ terrorist “ in the hopes that the United States, will pardon Canada and only attack Mexico…

Usa ?? isa self contained unit ?

All my love to our Canadian family and neighbors to the north. This is a great day of shame for the United States and it will take years...and probably decades after Donald is gone to repair the damage.

Such a professional speaking gentleman! I’m from United States and fully support Canada!??

It's about land United States want to take over Canada. And they don't want to become part of the United States

Very soon, all of our allies will be repeating Trudeau's words. Trump and Vance are going to get the United States in a lot of trouble.

So what are the names of the 1.5million United States citizens Donald had killed with Fentanyl while he waited 1-month to impose these absurd tariffs.

Trudeau trunp has no allies... that is the damn sad truth for the American people, too. Sad day, & yet another day I'm embarrassed to be an American. I live in this state of shock, though I shouldn't be. He's a f'n moron. I hate this man who is supposed to be the president of the UNITED STATES. He's done nothing but cause chaos everywhere. Stick it to us Trudeau, I for one do not blame you at all. It's really pissing me off. He does not know what he's doing, nor do those around him. There is no winning with this loser.

United States did not Trump did he is a pos

The United States didn’t impose tariffs. Trump MAGA did, weak republican senators and congressmen did. Corporate America did.

Trump seeks to weaken the United States, force Canada into the 51st state, annex Greenland, restrict Mexico economically, repossess the Panama Canal and put it all at Putin's feet. Trump is pursuing Putin's agenda at a time in the history of the earth when climate change is opening up the Arctic Ocean and the North Pole to industrialization and commercialization along new routes never seen before . Trump's policies do not benefit the American people at all, but rather the economic potential of the Russians, The King of the North.

Thank you Prime Minister. We will fight for our country Canada, our culture, our values and our economy. We will not negotiate with a country that directly threatens our sovereignty. We hope in future to rebuild a relationship with our neighbours, but only when that can be done in a respectful manner. Time now to unite with other countries and build new trading relationships.

I have to confess I don´t know much about the actual canadian politics. But this reaction of Mr. Trudreau was very impressive. As a german European I know we are together in this completely insane situation initalised by the pathetic performance of the Trump administration. But with Canada on our side, with a strong leader as Trudeau I´m optimistic that the european leaders will also unite and focus not on their differences but on the common interest to stop this destructive US Goverment from destroying the free western society.

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!

Wow Donald TRUMP is a horrible person. He somehow became President of the United States of America. I don’t blame people who believed his lies, but let us hope we can make it through his first year in office. Let us hope that our representatives, decide to stick up for democracy and not hang on Trumps coattails. I would hope they want to leave a legacy to better America and its people not drag us through the mud.

Don't forget that only REPUBLICANS supported and supporting donald trump not all AMERICANS. So if all that Americans and majority of Europe, CANADA,MEXICO and THE UK will unite it will be a very strong allies.
