It’s really annoying that CNN continues to babble on instead of letting Trudeau finish his press conference and then proceed with their responses. Our country is in the hands of a madman along with Musk and other cowardly Republicans who are in office. For all of those who voted for Trump, wait till energy and other costs rise, but it’s a shame we will all suffer as a result. Canada is our friend I am ashamed right now to call myself an American.

Calling him Governor Trudeau is the same to Canadians as the Americans feel about the confederate flag! Stop it!

This is what you call awesome leadership not bowing down to a bully dictator, you should protect your country and your citizens not put them in arms way, ?

Every leader is playing into trumps hands!! People everywhere do not understand narcissistic personality disorder. By every leader, media reports talking about him phoning him pleading with him is all fuel!!!!This also tells his narcissism everyone is under control!! This makes him feel powerful! Society really needs to learn about narcissists. This situation calls for leaders to ignore him do not call him media needs to drop stories!! But society has been so heavily influenced by narcissism it just can’t let go of the profits this whole shit show is going to create. Oh and by the way all these politicians are narcissists as well and now this has threatened their control. And guess who gets to go along for the ride and the chaos they create.

I will not listen to MSNBC or CNN or any stations tonight. I will be watching all of my James Bond movies and other movies. I would not waste my time listening to insults from this person. With a so-called friend like Vladimir Putin and Elon Musk does not make you smart. ?

To this man I say BRAVO BRAVO. GO FOR IT, DONALD DOESN'T RESPECT YOU OR YOUR COUNTRY DON'T BOTHER TO SHOW ANY RESPECT TO A CRIMINAL FELON SEXUAL ASSULTER GREEDY, SELFISH, POWER DRIVEN EGOMANIAC LUNITIC on a revenge tour to hurt America for the crybaby because we didn't vote for him in 2020, very much a applied demented orange poor loser. . THIS so called president trump, and the real PRESIDENT MUSKrat ARE DISRECPECTFUL hate filled idiots that put gold before humans. GO FOR IT, FIGHT BACK AND LET TRUMP KNOW YOU ARE STRONG AND ACTUALLY HAVE A MAJORITY BACKING BY THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES something Donald doesn't have and never did. Donald didn't even get half the votes after 8 years campaigning and all the muskrat money. We respect you and have no respect for maga. GO CANADA.

Why legacy news media still covers trump like he serious he so dump he makes a box of rocks look smart call it for what it is trump revenge tour

When Trump talks and lies and lies about Fentanyl and subsidizing...why isn't he being called out? Macron is the only one that corrected him.

Hard to believe that some people in the world do not want freedom, peace, friends, and happiness, and we let the so called leaders ruin our world that we all have a short time on this beautiful planet. Canada will survive, we will never give up our country. Thank you Mr.Prime Minister for being yourself and truthful and letting the world know. Thank you from all around the globe for your support.

“Trade war” “we don’t want this” it’s called a fair playing field .

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau. Notice no name calling, no disrespect, no Drama. This is how you behave as an intelligent person. We are proud to be Canadians.??????????????????

That’s my prime minister ??way to go Trudeau, we stand up to the so call bully and his enablers??????just paid $5 Canadian for 18 eggs?

1/2: Myself and the saner half of the US that read, understood, and voted against Proj 2025 understands why they need to levy retaliatory tariffs especially as a Michigander who's lived less than 4 hours from Canada all her life, who has family in Quebec and Ontario, and is a job-seeking policy professional and international trade nerd who now cannot in good faith seek a job in the federal government. We have been looking and still do look to Canada as a model quite a bit and love Canada and Canadians to pieces. We Michiganders especially in the central and eastern UP and Detroit and Ann Arbor area are friends, coworkers, and family of Canadians. Some are even dual citizens. It is sad that it's come to this. \n\n2/2: I still personally just can't wrap my head around how a trade deal Trump put together himself and called the best (the USMCA in question) is all of a sudden so bad. Logic doesn't work with these types of people... I really want **someone!!** to ask him/ admin officials about the USMCA **to their face** and see what they say because I am so upset by this nonsensical and corrupt administration.

This is propoganda, misleading and embarrasing. Canada started the Tariffs, USA just responded with a Reciprocal Tariff Act. Trudeau can kiss diplomacy goodbye, Russia, Russia, Russia. Does switzerland get called names for remaining neutral, they have the highest levels of happiness on the planet...

Straight up calling him dumb. Mic drop.

Trudeau is a very nice person when call Trump “ you are smart “ , no he’s dumb as a rock!

So basically Trudeau is saying Trump is imposing these tariffs for no reason? I doubt that, and look at how the so called allies are turning against the USA so easily. Good thing we don’t need them.

As a Canadian, I want to say that we love our American friends and neighbours. We are proud to call you our closest ally, and our shared history and relationship is cherished by all Canadians. Until now. The fact that we are being treated worse than authoritarian threats like Russia or China is beyond insulting. We don’t deserve this. We don’t want this. \n\nTo my European friends, please urge your governments to buy Canadian goods and support free trade between our nations. We love our EU friends as well, and we have wares to sell!

This isn't about fentanyl or the borders it's about Trumps desire to make money off tariffs so he can pay for tax cuts to his billionaire ass kissers while the first lady Musk is stealing money from government offices. Trump is not a smart man. Recently he said this was a bad agreement and who the hell signed this speaking about the last trade agreement with Canada and Mexico. Well it was you Dumb Donald. Nothing more than a child bully.\n This idiot thinks Zelensky is a dictator but refuses to call Putin a dictator WTF . He says Ukraine started the war, what a retarded scumbag. Good luck the next 4 years UST, United States of Trump.

Under normal circumstances I would be the last person to support our Liberal party; especially Trudeau. His past record speaks for itself. However, his talk today to the American people and Trump actually made me feel proud to be a Canadian. It was the harshest language I have heard him use towards Trump especially after enduring weeks of degrading talk from Trump in relation to calling Trudeau a governor. I hope that the Liberals follow through with protecting Canadians.

From America, the world really acts like we owe them something.\n\nWe get called imperialists when we help, cowards and weaklings when we don’t, we get reprimanded and shit on about how we should get our nose out of everyone’s business. The rest of the world seems to have a hate boner for the US yet can’t even be bothered to figure out how to not start new world wars, can’t even be bothered to take in and handle their own refugees, can’t even be bothered to help your own people.\n\nWe The People are growing real tired of our treatment on the world stage. Furthermore, we have our own issues. We have to focus on our own country and people, because as it stands many of us are struggling to figure out how to pay rent without picking up 2nd jobs or side hussle’s. Please understand this, we voted for Donald Trump. Flaws and all. He didn’t cheat or steal his way in. He isn’t a threat to democracy, or the stability of Europe. He’s and American president for America and if any non Americans wanna take issue with that. Then come get your citizenship and vote for it, but until then, stop crying about what America is doing and focus on your own country. Who knows, if you do your own country might actually be notable enough for you to understand my frustrations :)

Trudeau you’re one of our biggest dictator in Canada....Call an election coward.

Canada leader called trump a clown trump now going invade Canada

As an individual Japanese, I cannot stand the current US president and vice president. I demand an impeachment trial. In order to protect America and the American people, these two people who do not call Russia a dictatorship, call Ukraine a dictatorship, and refuse to use Russia's frozen assets should be impeached. They say such things to China, but in reality they are lenient, and it is impossible that they treat Canada and Mexico worse than China. Please. American people, please do not accept dictatorship.

Trump goes to hell. Trump Isolate the f*** USA. Who called the devil a friend is even evil

hardly in the future no american cars will be exported to china they have now stopped this. Many people in Europe don't like American cars, because they have very poor quality.In Europe, groups calling themselves: Boycott goods from the United States” . They grow explosively.

How many people grew up in Divorced families with arguments and name calling and all the insults? I’m just wondering because the way our president in America is acting along with JD Vance and all the MAGA politicians they all act like those parents with the constant negativity and verbal abuse that all the crap that they put the American people through!!! How many times has our country gone through anything serious within or outside of our country? I am 62 years old and I can tell you there has been many, but we have never had a president / vice president and all the politicians on one party sit there and act the way these IDIOTS act! I was just thinking about this because of the constant stress I feel on a daily basis with this administration! It is a public disgrace as our trailer trash parents fight in public! Makes you want to run away!! I cannot stand the people responsible for what we are experiencing in our country right now! I blame Trump, Musk and all those American that voted for these idiots!! F” off!!

I love how he just called him 'DONALD'!!!! ...no mention of President!!! ?????????

Trudeau has been embroiled in 250+ scandals since he won a majority govt in 2015. 250+ scandals!!!!!!! Hes been defeated in every level of court and still walks as a free man, usurping & laundering money WEEKLY. \n\nHe only won a minority in 2019 & 2021 with a tiny fraction of the vote and has stolen more $$$ from the taxpayer with a minority govt than he did with a majority-please tell me how his net worth making $400k/year went from $8 million to $180 million and climbing? \n\nTrudeau will get us all deleted by us forces if he doesn’t zip it! Call the election already!!!!!!!

Trudeau called trump's bluff - Canada stepped up the drug border security. Now trump can't use that as an excuse so he has to find other random things to blame this on.

I am an embarrassed American who knows that this so called golden age Trump speaks of is nothing but FOOL’S GOLD. We have a fool for a president.

and after this, the orange one called the Canadian PM governor... Insulting not him, but Canada itself...

As an European I'm standing behind Canada and Mexico. America has voted a convicted criminal into the WH who always lies and only thinks about what is good for him. This is on the MAGA cult and those who didn't vote. Your so called leader is the biggest terrorist from within

Did he do the full list??? ?? just said they're building in Arizona. Tariff us nothing friend Donald ? ? Canadian spokesperson JT called him what?? This will be a rough ride 4sure JT. Could have just did the full list that was asked 2b done. ??‍♂️ NEW FLASH WORLD NORTH AMERICA WILL BE LOCK DOWN SOON. WHAT SIDE OF THE DOOR WILL U BE ON.???‍??

So, who's going to call out Canada for their teriffs on us before this BS press conference

No name calling so unlike the US President.

Bravo!?????? I am an American and I stand with Canada. Leaders from other countries around the world should be as strong as your leader Trudeau! This message could not be more clear or direct. And I’m glad Trudeau didn’t call him with president in front of his name. trump doesn’t deserve it. He is a disgrace to America and exactly what America is not about. No one knows how he could get here But it’s a nightmare that we are trying to wake up from. Trump has spread cancer in America and we are fighting for our lives. We are deeply sorry for all the pain we are causing people around the world. This is our fight and we unfortunately are making it everyone’s problem. We need help, so thank you for everything you are doing.

Uh oh, he called him, Donald. I heard there’s nothing he hates more.

Don’t call it “ally” canada is becoming europe. Economy & immigration wise

Interesting. So it sounds like Canada just started last year with stopping drugs from coming over the border...remind me, how long have drugs been coming across? Bluff called, Canada, you were abusing the United States, until Trump came around...shame on you, too late. And like he said, this will be tough. But drugs stay out, child trafficking stays out.

LOL ….Calling Trump smart is BS. Trump is EVIL..PURE EVIL..

STOP CALLING HIM SMART

Calling Trump Donald probably isn’t going to help the diplomacy. ?

I demand the Donald to apologize deeply and sincerely for having been disrespectful to my Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau by calling him governor. I want USA to repay the blood and money we shed and spent when we fought battles with you! Doanld, you've been so ungrateful! Shame!

Thanks for calling out our psycho President

I think he just called Trump dumb ?

It only took Trump less than a month to destroy our coward of a government!! THE ONLY thing Trump so called promised was to lower cost/eggs smh lol..so stupid ppl voted for him!! Now, most of them are crying!!! Stupidity of them to really think this man cared lol lol...Trump is/ will be running this country just like a BUSINESS!! Just like Putin does Russia. In his first election Putin tried to help Trump win, but it didn't go as planned . Now, Musk helped him win this election by way of tech support. So, now Trump owes Musk AND still owes Putin. Trump is paying off his debts by canceling America, OUT!!

??Turdo calling Trump a dictator ??

We are ready for this fight Canada and Germany!!!bring it on!! Get ready to go hungry and get ready for your taxes to go up without our military!! Bad move Canada we are tired of your half ass support if that’s what you want to call it!! WE DONT NEED YOUR COUNTRY BUT YOU CERTAINLY NEED US!!

@Tradeau, Stop lecturing us about tariffs and threatening Americans. Your country has high taxes, and before it affects Americans, Canadian citizens will feel the consequences more. Additionally, stop pushing illegal immigrants and fentanyl across the US border. You call it a trade war, but we Americans call it a fair deal. You were well informed about the consequence but you never got serious about the warning. Canada must check strictly shipments from Mexico and China.
