Rush to buy your goods now.. lumber is going to go up like crazy

People who voted for Trump, are you happy? That man is crazy

This is crazy, why are we fighting with our Allies

This crazy trump shit just needs to stop. All of it. It's not even been 6 weeks and my kids can't even make this much mess in that time

He made the whole world hate America in less than 2 months, crazy.

Unfortunately for you Trudeau, you’re talking to a crazy, stupid and bully person ?

European here. Nice to see that Canada is still a great smart country we are all happy to be friends with; what really worries us is the country below Canada, since it is run by a crazy old man and his cult of bigotry, ignorance, lies, autocracy and pseudoscience. What have you done? You liberated us from the Nazis in WWII just to vote for their American counterpart less than one century later. I am very sorry for all the good guys who lost their lives only to bring Mr Trump to the White House.

From Australia, we respect you Canada, our brothers and sisters from a cooler climate. Trump is crazy.

Trump is crazy!!????

Who are our Dem politicians who will organize the ppl to respond??? Are they scared? This is crazy that all this is happening while the Dem response has been lukewarm. The ppl will show up. We need dates, places and times.

So eloquent and in 2 languages, no doubt. Now switch to Trump's speeches and enjoy the incompetence and crazy. Great speech Trudeau ?? \n SLAVA UKRAINI?? ♥️

Crazy ?

Oh boy this is gonna get expensive. It's the crazy MAGA. Sorry Canada.

You, as Americans, have to remove Trump and his cronies from office. He is destroying your country. He is CRAZY! He is a threat to world security.

This is getting crazy!

This is such an idiotic self-imposed disaster. Trump is either crazy, stupid, or both. What is his goal here?

Trump is crazy ?

He's not smart...He had 4 or 5 casino's go bust. Even the mob skimming like crazy did not bankrupt a casino......FFS

Canadian here. Crazy to see Justin Trudeau now becoming a politician beast.

Its crazy how Trump is treating his allies!!!

Trudeau, you are the one that created all this problem letting the immigration get out of control, prices go crazy up. Don't talk like you are a hero, you created this.

Am I crazy in thinking that I want Trudeau to stay for the rest of the year ?

From Germany - we know how it started with crazy dictator … so lets stand together to fight TRUMP

AMERICA IS OVER RATED AND RACIST. IM A AFRICAN AMERICAN LIVING IN SAN FRANCISCO. ITS TRULY SAD TO SEE THIS PLACE LOOK CRAZY LIKE THIS. ALIENATING US FROM ALL OTHER COUNTRIES BECAUSE TRUMP SAYS SO

Americans obviously didn’t understand what tariffs are, didn’t get that it’s an import tax which they must pay on goods and products they buy from Canada, a tax which tRump collects from Americans and uses to pay for tax-cuts for the richest citizens. But one more thing Americans don’t get is that before this fateful day an unofficial boycott against ALL US goods has been growing since tRump insulted Canada’s Prime Minister and threatened Canada’s sovereignty—whereas Canada’s official countervails ( which only kicked-in today )only target certain US goods, not ALL of them like ordinary Canadians are doing in growing numbers right now—in fact, the imposition of tRump’s tariffs today has only made the unofficial boycott bigger and more organized. It’s heartening that so many nations have solicited Canada, offering alternative sources for common US exports to Canada —citrus fruits, pharmaceuticals, and other manufactures, to name a few.\n\nI don’t think Canadians even realize how big this unofficial boycott is getting because it’s growing so fast. I’ve never seen a surge in Canadian patriotism like this. Never in my seven decades —which includes the two Referenda on Quebec separation. And there’s a federal election approaching when all partisans will be one-upping each other in the patriotism department—which manifests in more boycotts of US goods and hospitality services.\n\n Americans should know that the unofficial boycott is more harmful to US exporters than the official targeted countervails because it features immediate and longterm diminishment of Canadian purchases of US goods—all retailers know it’s very hard to recover lost customers once they’ve found alternatives (and the added patriotic effect only makes it worse). Included is diminishment of Canadian visits to the USA. Indeed, the internet is replete with testimonies of Canadian”snow birds” not only forgoing their annual sojourn in the Florida or Arizona sunshine but also of selling their properties there with the parting shot, “I will never vacation in the US again!” Already Mexico has seen its visits from Canadians (who have had a modest presence in Mexico for years) surge to unprecedented levels. I know from much-welcomed temp Mexican construction workers in BC (where I live) that they view Canadians completely differently from our mutual US neighbours—and now that affection is growing like never before. \n\nI’m continually amazed at how uninformed Americans are about tariffs—and misinformed by tRump and his goofy, preposterous, and ridiculous fantasy of world-domination. When tRump uses the lame excuse to implement emergency powers —that Canada is “allowing” (as Vance puts it) fentanyl to “pour into the USA”—it’s tantamount to saying Ukraine started the war with Russia. The man is a tendentious liar and narcissistic megalomaniac. \n\nI have faith that the great nation of the USA will reject tRump’s crazy policies—we all just have to hang on and let the needless suffering for both our nations (and the world with regard strategic alliances) play out until he either relents, is swamped in legal repercussions, is impeached, or otherwise removed from office!\n\nGood luck my American and Ukrainian friends!

trump is going crazy, no real man or business would do that.

Canada's crazy with raw earth!

Americans are crazy why they voted for old guy

The President of the United States is trying to destroy America economically in my opinion. Don’t take it personal Canada. He’s fired over 20,000 people from their jobs with absolute disregard in disrespect. He left to get rid of which employed 7000 people! Trump led the charge to get rid of TikTok and then he left Office and it happened but he’s the one who started it all 7000 people lost their job jobs. He’s cutting Services to all American people with all these job losses and he doesn’t care!! He just cares about his wife, Elon, and making America white again! To start trade, wars is crazy when we’re just recovering economically from the pandemic, but he doesn’t care because being the president has made him rich because he breaks every law!! I’m so sorry Canada that we have so many idiots in this country that voted for this man because they’re racist and they wanna make America white again. It’s not about making America great it’s about making it white. Unless you do one of those so-called what he calls black jobs. Don’t really need to explain anymore than that. Either know some history or don’t. Hopefully this idiot will either change his mind when he realize what a catastrophe he’s caused or he’ll be gone soon!! From an American, who did not vote for Trump and never would vote for Trump with good reason!!

trump is absolutely crazy

I'm American but I side with Canada. What Trump is doing to us is absurd. He is causing so much chaos to us and others. Everything he is involved with is just crazy. I am not alone with my thinking.

Why do the US go crazy, so uncultured insane? US $ is falling.

We are trapped in a crazy dystopian government. That is insane !

Support for Canada from Poland and Ukraine! Trump is crazy to attack US closest friends like Canada or EU. Trump's policy lead to big global economical crisis and potentially big wars.

I feel sorry for Canada. But what will these tariffs do to weaker Mexico? Do Americans really think that impoverishing Mexico will lead to less criminality and immigration from Mexico? This is crazy.

From England ??????? we support our Canadian friends , Trump is crazy ?

Canada ...I'm so sorry. Please know that Trump does not represent the US citizens. It was a crazy moment that got out of control, and now the country is his hostage. Please help us.

Im so glad Canada is saying what lots of us Americans who did not vote for the republican side, is making obvious to the Americans who DID vote for that craziness! ❤??

I don't consider that. . . Talking directly to Trump. Good luck you whimpy crazy little fruit. Ok shoot us with your tariffs. See who caves first. Whining on tv trying to change our minds. When we openly, willingly and happily voted to change the way THIS COUNTRY has been thru because of idiots like you, Biden ETC. change hurts in the beginning. . . But in the end. We will see who has a trade deficit with who. Good luck little fruit

Justin Trudeau is speaking to Americans like we don't know trump is crazy. Bro we know. Help

Why doesn't someone just come out and say it. What does Putin have on Trump to get him to do all these things. All of these things don't benefit Canada or the United States they benefit Putin.\n Donald I for one am completely willing to forgive you whatever you've done whatever Putin has on you I will completely forgive you and I would imagine to put an end to all this craziness the rest of the country will forgive you too will give you a pass on whatever Behavior Putin recorded

As an American I am SO HAPPY you are standing up to this craziness! Don’t back down!! And those who voted for this in the US will feel what they have done. Keep going Canada ??

Trump crazy make american jobless and homeless again

Only some of America wants this. The rest of us think Donny and Elon are crazy. ❤? Hang in there! Remember many of us love you Canada!
