Is this the guy that gave the truckers the shaft? The one against human rights for his own, only for others. Yes, I would take him very seriously. \n\nClowns in the comment section that seems to all be working from home, on US government payroll. Reading the same script, they were sent from their old covid handlers in the agency.

Please accept my deepest apology. ? I love the Canadian people and their ways. This tarrif war doesn't represent my will, and probably most others feel the same. Hopefully, this maddening period of chaos will be short-lived, and our friendship can resume again soon.

Trump is a buffoon. He plays with fire and others, including Americans, get burned.

He does not speak for all of us, Justin :( This American, and MANY others of us, is with you and Ukraine. This is awful :/

Real Americans are not self-serving. Real Americans are for serving others and bettering others because it’s the right thing to do. Our government does not know the difference between right and wrong. Those who support our current government, also, do not understand what it’s like to be selfless versus selfish. I’m a veteran, and serving others and treating others with respect and dignity has been engrained in me and I wish everyone could have the same morality. This is a choice in which too many have ignored.

Trudeau, I don’t hear you bringing up Xi Jinping your buddy and how he’s imprisoned countless numbers of his own people and had many others killed.

As an American I can say I did not vote for this nor do I want this and I know there are others like me. America is not entering a new golden age we are in the process of a head on collision with the modern dark ages. Sooo Canada what are your polices for becoming a citizen

Western Democratic World & All others Support Canada to the max .

LOL ALL Fentanyl coming over the border is from the U.S. into Canada. It is just an excuse to try and get his military up here. It will not happen. We will meet them with UK troops, our troops and EU troops and others if we must so f him but Trump should really go have a little visit with King Charles.

As long as others were affected half of this country was fine. But, when you lost your jobs, now you want to protest. Z don't trust them or bend yourself. You are in the right. Canada we are on a commercial break.

Donald and his crew will implode soon . They are out to piss off as many people as possible . How foolish can you get . \nCanada please work with the Uk and others that will join us \nThe Democratic World can grow Strong and become self sufficient. We can get by without the USA

They have no leverage. They will cave like all the others.

America has been overplaying the bully hand for too long. TRUMP is looking to blame others for his failure

STOP LIVING IN OPPRESSION AND SLAVERY DEPENDENCY WITH TRADE. SELF RELIANCE AND INDEPENDENCE IS WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD BE DOING. SHUT DOWN TH TRADE AND END OPPRESSION WITH COST AND VALUE. THAT IS THE RESPONSE OTHER COUNTRIES SHOULD BE MAKING. THE US GOVERNMENT FORCES ANNUAL INFLATION TO OPPRESS THE PEOPLE WITH SLAVERY, COST, TAXES AND DEPENDENCY FOR ALL THEIR NEEDS. ITS SUBLIMINAL MIND CONTROL. WISDOM COMMENT #3 IF YOU HAVE A BUSINESS, INVEST IN MARKETS AND LIVE IN DEPENDENCY FOR ALL YOUR NEEDS FROM GLOBAL TRADE, SUPPLY CHAINS, ENERGY GRIDS OR JUST THE BASIC FOOD SUPPLIES YOU ARE OPPRESSING OTHERS WITH COST AND VALUE THAT DOESN'T EXIST. YOU ALL ARE REGULATED AND SUBLIMINALLY CONTROLLED SLAVES IN OPPRESSION UNTIL YOU REALIZE THIS. YOUR NOT HELPING PEOPLE BY CREATING COST ON OTHERS AND INFLATING COST TO MANAGE YOUR OPPRESSION WITH LIFE. HUMANITY NEEDS TO STOP BEING SELFISH AND USE COMMON SENSE. ADDICTION IS EVERYTHING YOU DO EVERYDAY. HUMANITY BREAKS UNDER PRESSURE FROM LIFE AND SOCIAL LIVING WITH OTHERS. WHY ARE YOU ALL TRYING SO HARD WHEN ITS SO EASY TO LIVE. WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THE FALSE REALITY YOU LIVE IN AND YOUR PERCEPTION FINALLY SNAPS YOU OUT OF THE OPPRESSED SUBLIMINAL PROGRAMMING YOUR MIND WILL BE FREE AND YOU WILL FINALLY AWAKEN TO REALITY. FOCUS AND SEE THE TRUTH.

A big part of America’s power isn’t just about its military or econom it’s about its allies. The U.S. doesn’t act alone; it has a web of partnerships that make it stronger. NATO, defense agreements, and strategic alliances give it global reach and help deter threats. Its allies also boost trade, innovation, and diplomacy, making sure the U.S. isn’t just a superpower on its own but part of a network that reinforces its influence. When the U.S. moves, it often moves with others, and that collective strength is a big reason why it holds so much power worldwide. This is at risk

What a fantastic speech. Donald Bone Spurs... You are very dumb. And your greed is leading your country, and others, into recession.\n\nDon't buy American!!

Everybody says they are the friend of the US, until it's time to be fair. To the world, stop being a bunch of children... or don't. But if not, be prepared to suck it up. Be ready to back up your BS. Don't tell us what our government is doing to us, pay attention to what you are doing to us... and have been since the 1950s. Let us be crystal clear, you Canada, along with Europe and others have been enjoying your subsidized lifestyles off our backs. We are done and finally someone in the White House is hearing us. I don't agree with everything he says and does, but I agree with him that this foolishness needs to stop. Stop now. To Trudeau, Buckel up butter cup, put your blackface on and find yourself a cute little dress, maybe entertainment can be the way for you to go. Talk to you in a few years, let's see how this all works out for you. To Canadian's, Last Chance, come be number 51, before the Russia and China split you down the middle like a roast pig. Send your 250 troops to Ukraine, let's see what you and 2000 Europeans can do after you piss off the Russians... because you are right about one thing, they are led by an evil man, who's word is useless and who doesn't give a rat's butt who dies for his glory.... even if it's you and your children. No worries, you don't need those nasty Americans south of the great white north, your good all on your own. I Just sent Trump another $50. Not going to change the world, but it will let him know we are behind him, no matter what the Libs of the world have to say about it.

Beware of all religions. “Beware of false prophets, men who come to you dressed up as sheep while underneath they are savage wolves.” –(The Prophet and Messiah Jesus of Nazareth at Matthew 7: 15)– \nFor God is our true Father. So never worship and pray in the way of the many false prophets of all religions. \n“But when you pray, go into a room by yourself, and shut the door. Pray to your Father who is there in the secret place; and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you openly. \nIn your prayers do not go babbling on like the heathen, who imagine that the more they say the more likely they are to be heard. Do not imitate them. Your Father knows what your needs are before you ask him. \nThis is how you should pray: \nOur Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, \nYour kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven, \nGive us today our daily bread, \nForgive us the wrong we have done, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us. \nAnd do not bring us to the test, but save us from the evil one. \nFor yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever. \nAmen. \nFor if you forgive others the wrongs they have done, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others, then the wrongs you have done will not be forgiven by your Father.” – (The Prophet and Messiah Jesus of Nazareth at Matthew 6: 6-15) – \n \n“Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged. For as you judge others, so you will yourselves be judged, and whatever measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.” – (at Matthew 7: 1-2) – \n \n“In truth I tell you, if anyone obeys my teaching he shall never know what it is to die.” – (at John 8: 51) – \n \n“Always treat others as you would like them to treat you: that is the Law and the Prophets. \nEnter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life and only a few find it.” – (Matthew 7: 12-14) – \n \n“I am the gate; anyone who comes into the fold through me shall be safe. He shall go in and out and shall find pasturage. \nThe thief comes only to steal, to kill, to destroy; I have come that men may have life, and may have it in all its fullness.” – (John 10: 9-10) – \n \n“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” – (Matthew 7: 21) – \n“I am the resurrection and I am life. If a man has faith in me, even though he dies, he shall come to life; and any one who is alive and has faith shall never die.” – (John 11: 25-26) – \n \n“I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world” – (John 12: 47) – \n“Whoever then will acknowledge me before men, I will acknowledge him before my Father in heaven; and whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” – (Matthew 10: 32-34) – \n \n“I am the way; I am the truth and I am life; no one comes to the Father except by me. If you knew me you would know my Father too.” – (John 14: 6-7) – \n \n“An expert in the law, [a leading religious Pharisee] tested him with this question: ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ He answered, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind. That is the greatest commandment. It comes first. The second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. Everything in the Law and the Prophets hangs on these two commandments.’” – (Matthew 22: 35-40) – \n \n“There is no greater love than this, that a man should lay down his life for his friends.” – (John 15: 13) – \n \n“Do not call any man on earth ‘father’ ; for you have one Father and he is in heaven. Nor must you be called ‘teacher’ ; you have one Teacher, the Messiah.’” – (Matthew 23: 9-10) – \n \n“Take care that no one misleads you: For many will come claiming my name…” – (Matthew 24: 4) – \n“Many false prophets will arise, and will mislead many; and as lawlessness spreads, men’s love for one another will grow cold. But the man who holds out to the end will be saved. ” – (Matthew 24: 11-13) – \n \n“Teach them to observe all that I have commanded you. And be assured, I am with you always, to the end of time.” – (Matthew 28: 20) – \n \nYours, in true Spirit and in our one given prayer, 2gointruth, on Tuesday the 4th of March 2025: – (Please read Matthew 5: 14-16) – Where every minute (of both day and night) can be a new beginning for any one of us. Let it always be you. Pray to God often, as prescribed above, before it is too late.

Oh well.. just another nail in the coffin of the dying empire, that the U.S. has become.. once EU and others counteract the tariffs in April the demise of the U.S. is only going to speed up... this is going to get ugly for the U.S. pretty fast..

How dare America do onto others as others do to America! Victim shaming, are we?

Everyone thinks that this is Canada standing up, but what this means is that the Canadians with our economy that is 1/10 that of the US will be taxed at 25% on our imports, this is going to hurt canadians way more than the retaliatory terrifs will hurt the americans. This may also lead to an escalated response from the US exacerbating the effect. Trudeau and others can't seem to grasp that there may be a long term strategy from Trump and this is playing into it. \n\nThe truth of all of it is that Trump does not like Justin Trudeau or the Liberal government.

God commanded all mankind...You must love one another...You must do to others as you want done to you...by this divine law and command of love Jehovah will judge all mankind governments nations...Love does not lie love does not seek its own interest...Obey Gods divine law of Love...seek Truth Seek Justice seek Righteousness Seek Peace...only those who seek truth and justice will succeed...

Our wannabe dictator in chief admires Hitler according to one of his previous wives… he loves Kim and Putin, and others. Now he is floating the idea of taking over other countries and has renamed the Gulf of Mexico!

I would add the well being of the WORLD depends on what Canada and others do to stand up to Trump's bullying.

@CNN @Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, not my government, but all Americans and our allies, as well. It is reckless, and the current government is a dictatorship. They were all lies. Many of us knew that, others drank the Koolaid. I am sorry. I stand with our allies, especially @President Zelenskyy & all of Ukraine!

With Telsi Gabbard, Kash Patel who are nothing but Russian Sympothizers and others in the DOJ and Security Agencies, you will not get ANY cooperation to assist in protecting our Borders!!

Are you kidding me w these CNN commentators? Not Wolf, but wtf w the others? Where is unbiased, nonpartisan reporting? No more legacy media for me

To all US administrators haters. Stop your ouin ouin and build your own future. If your are not pleased with your position then improve yourself and stop blaming others for your weaknesses.

Trudeau never once mentioned how popular he is or how those before him were clueless or how disrespectful others are, he never mentioned that other countries have been taking Canada for a ride. This is the art of the deal.

Canadians do not like Trudeau, he’s increased his citizens inflation with Rules, regulations, communism at core. It’s about Returning Americans the robbed coffers of Taxpayers funds, Americans have United, others move to Canada.

As a Canadian and as a Canadian that hates Trudeau like 90% of the others i still agree 100% this is some crazy stuff we got going on right now and yall Emericans voted this wak job in

Americans enjoy drugs too much, but they don't accept responsibility for their addiction. Instead, they blame others for their shortcomings and addiction . Nobody is forcing Americans to use drugs, Nobody twists their arm to be drug addicts, they do it to themselves

These terrible consequences stem from a single mad leader whose ego is as inflated as his unpleasant demeanor. His reckless ambitions and self-centered decisions are dragging millions of ordinary people—both in his country and others—into unnecessary suffering. As if people didn’t already have enough problems to deal with, this maniac comes along, sowing chaos and adding to their burdens. His actions are not just destructive but reflect a dangerous disregard for humanity, leaving a trail of devastation that will take years to repair. Leaders like him remind us of the importance of vigilance and the need to unite against such destructive egotism.

Canada is strongly anti fascist:\n1) we are against rascism and try to fight that human tendency\n2) we believe in religious tolerance and we don't fear secular views\n3) we honour our intelligent and hard working women \n4) we don't worship cult leaders who prey on our fears\n5) we are happy to live financially comfortably but don't worship the dollar\n6) we honour our military but worship peace\n7) we love our country fiercely but respect others and see their strengths\n8) we respect rather than fear sexually diverse persons\n9) we try to understand different perspectives of history\n10) we believe in equity and truth rather than Darwinian power (might is right?-no)\n11) we believe in a social democracy that pools its taxes and provides for all citizens

USA ?? land of junkies and blames others countrys for it ???????

I admire a leader who can stand up for their people this way! As an American I am saddened and embarrassed over the way or so called leaders have been acting and treating others.

Trump is a danger to himself and others. His effect or his team have to get him committed against his will for everyone's safety. To those people who ate his power of attorney, this is orderly neglect it's not always about money, tax papers money, the team around him and is wife and see it clearly. Please have Donald a committed, please

Canada has been the preferred access point for criminals and terrorist for the past 4 years. I have a place right on the border and 8 months ago I caught a young East Indian who already had several felony in the states and had been shipped back to India in previous years. How the heck did that man get a student visa to come to Canada. There are 50,000 East Indian Students missing in Canada who simply used the visa to get into Canada and run the border. This is what we’re are dealing with. I live on the border and I’ve never seen this much traffic. Border guards are simply picking their targets and having to ignore others. So I ask u how do u think I feel about my property being used as an illegal highway bcz of your government incompetence. As someone who also works in native communities throughout Canada I’ll also Trudeau words fall like shit from ass. The drugs have ravaged native communities to the tune of 3/4 of the young ppl. Grandparents are raising the grandchildren and it’s all kept hush hush by the liberal media. They’ve done nothing to stop it bcz it normally boils down to minority groups who they brought in who are making it.

From just south of your southern border, we depend on Canadian visitors. Without you, this place will be a ghost town. Businesses will close. I and many others over here support Canada in whatever you need to do.

Trump is a conman. Not a smart businessman. Putin wanna- be. He has very low self-esteem. Only such people bully others. Trump's only agenda is to annex Canada any which he can. Invade the beautiful country for its resources and destroy it with his greed. Trump has betrayed America.

I believe that the ultimate wet dream of Trump is to have a bigger nation ie. performing hostile takeovers of neighboring countries and of strategic importance for him (Greenland, Canada, Panama Canal and others). For that to function, he has agreed with his best buddy Putin to allow him his share of the Europian countries. China will probable be on the same hostile takeover trip all over the pacific as well. He and Putin think that they will loose out against China otherwise. What the poor man doesn't realise is that the community of the UN were and are the best deterence against China. His willingness to break that up will actually lead to a very big world dominating conflict. The clear thinking US politicians need to act quickly before more damage is done to the American people and country. He is on the path of destroying vital friendships to pay for his sick qunon infested mind...(eating cats and dogs....say no more)

Yes, the number two in the Oval Office is Pence, and his words often come across as cheap, bullying tactics. Instead of offering real leadership or thoughtful discussion, he uses language that tries to intimidate and put others down. His approach often feels like he's trying to hold onto power by scaring people, rather than standing on solid ground with strong ideas. This kind of talk may work for some, but it only creates more division and gets in the way of real progress.\nThe biggest mistake was introducing tariffs without any backup plans in place. The bottom 60% of U.S. citizens will likely struggle to make ends meet in less than two years, stuck behind the barriers of these tariffs. The idea that South American countries might step in to help the U.S. seems unrealistic. More likely, the U.S. will find itself isolated, facing political instability—and to put it bluntly, a loss of trust—thanks to an overinflated ego and a sense of entitlement.\nCould the U.S. turn to African countries for their natural resources? It’s possible, but this effort probably won’t be successful. Most African nations, except for those in the Sahel region, are just beginning to recover from the effects of colonialism. Many are now building their own paths and are more likely to align with China’s influence rather than the U.S. Even if the U.S. tries to get resources from Africa, it will likely face challenges from both local resistance and growing competition from China.

All I can say to Trump is that history is never wrong. Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Saddam Hussein, Anastasio Somoza, Kadafy, Bashar al-Assad, and others tried the same playbook. It didn't go well for them. Did it, Trump? The isolation our country from the rest of the world and the hostile environment you are creating will lead to history repeating itself. But, you will never know. because you are an ignorant uneducated idiot. you deserve whatever history has in store for you. Good luck with that.

join the eu bro, we got each others backs

It’s horrible that all of us In the US have to face the consequences of Trump’s insanity, and be labeled as traitors on the world stage. That this was allowed to happen shows America is a deeply ill nation right now. That so many of us can see this president as an absolute monster, while others as a savior, shows how broken we have become. This is something we alone are going to have to figure out.

The reason for this 'trade war' is not about 'trade'. It's about 'creating chaos' so that president Trump is the 'centre' of world attention. A malignant naracistic individual apparently cannot have anyone seemingly to be 'doing better' or being more successful than he is. Canada ?? is a very successful nation and because of its economic success it is creating envy and apparently hatred in certain individuals who view the success of Canada ?? as a threat to themselves. The USA now apparently cannot see the value of a strong and stable economy as its near neighbours. Thats why apparently there are some who now want to crash the Canadian economy and when times then 'get tough' the blame and responsibility for this chaos will be accepted by whom. Presidents and Prime Ministers come and go. Once their 'term is over' they simply 'walk away'. World leaders need to be men or women of integrity and honesty who 'do the right thing'. With 'great power' comes 'great responsibility'. You only 'give responsibility' to someone who has the wisdom and expertise and understanding in order to both 'hold' and 'govern' wisely and without fear or favor. Maybe its time for others in positions of authority in other institutions to step in and 'take control'. You would never let a child drive a super car on the highway so how much 'damage' has to happen before a world leader is not 'held to account' and his 'hands removed' from the steering wheel before there is a motor accident so large that the freeway is rendered unless and has to be totally shut down your. You cannot have total power in the hands of individuals who apparently do not possess the necessary skills knowledge and experience and wisdom that is required to fulfil the role they were elected to fulfil. A person with the mind and mentality of a child apparently is not a fit person to be running the economy of any nation. May Canada ?? remember its roots and may we all be thankful for true and honest leaders who have integrity and do and say the right thing. Thank you Mr Prime minister. I trust that King Charles III has heard what his Canadian prime minister has said and what he is doing with total integrity.

putin & donnie plan to coordinate a takeover starting with the US (which donnie has already initiated). Thank you PM Trudeau - you and others please keep standing up to him because our own representatives are cowards who choose power, prestige, privilege and profits over their constituents. donnie has already bowed down to putin. donnie has missed the fact that fentanyl is smuggled in via container ships from china along with mailed packages and trucks from Mexico. Agents can inspect at the borders until the cows come home but smugglers will always come up with new ways to hide contraband. Oh yeah, donnie is NOT a “very smart guy”. The WSJ is wrong on that point. Don’t feed his ego.\nStay strong Canada ❤

Zelensky is a crooked thief he can’t account for money Biden gave him and he admitted it . Trump wants out of war and killings we don’t need another stupid war like the one u fought in the only war was would war 2 all others were money making for politicians so u fought for them

The reason for trumps behavior is an all personal EGO. He doesn't want to look bad in front of others, even if it means hurting the country and their people. Its a childish game on a large scale schoolyard. He doesn't care who gets hurt. As long as he wins. He's blinded by his behavior. Maybe thats why he's president the puppeteer knew what he was doing. Canada ??
