America first! Trudeau trying to pass blame to Trump! It’s not Trumps fault. It your fault. Canada is luck to be a state!

Trump wants Canada to be 51st state? This is wrong. Trump might have some Russian friends pushing him to mess with Canada. God help Canada ?? ? ❤

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.

Maybe they are planning something. Trump once remarked that Canada could become the U.S.'s 51st state, so perhaps he was considering a strategy to weaken the country as part of a long-term plan. He might have been looking for a justification to assert control over Canada. Additionally, his strategic support for Putin raises concerns. Trump also once suggested renaming the 'Gulf of Mexico' to the 'Gulf of America.' Considering all this, could we be on the brink of World War III?

Trump wants to make Canada the 51st state of America but is only succeeding in making the US the 23rd Federal Republic of Russia.

I find it particularly effective that Canada is focusing on red state America. Kentucky alcohol is just one example. Prime Minister Trudeau is also targeting those issues that they can most effectively respond, like electricity in the norther tier, LNG (shifting to EU). Trump is screwing over our closest and greatest allies, in deference to Putin, a war criminal.

Wait wasn’t this guy the same one who said Canada is a post-national state. I thought there was no Canadian identity.

Canada harbored my kinsmen when America was a terror-slave state. Many of them got to Canada and thrived. You are our partners in freedom and real Americans will know this!

Canada has had tariffs on American products for over 10 years, but the United States has no tariffs on Canada until today. Canada should think about that.

Minds Well Make Canada ?? a State Now Bcuz They Obviously Can’t Run a Country!

I wouldn't mind Canada becoming a state of the US, but only if that is what the Canadian population wants. It would just add more liberal voters to combat the GOP.

It's refreshing to hear the Leader of a Country, speak clearly and honestly without unneccessary superlatives. Trump could learn alot from Mr Trudeau. God Bless Canada and God Help the United States of America!

American here. Canada should cut off electricity it provides to the northern U.S. border states. Trump won’t stop until there is such an overwhelming retaliation that he can’t conduct business as usual anymore.

By all means have your Canadian fight against Trump and the United States. Just leave Russia and Putin out if you're criticisms. This is a problem between Canada and America!

Russian asset, *_Agent Orange_* has succeeded in the isolation and the beginning of the fall of the United States. \n_Trudeau did not only speak for Canada, _*_he spoke for the entire free world_*

Canada will be the 51st state lol

I am so proud of Canada. The rest of the world needs to step in here. Start putting tariffs on the United States and sanction Trump musk and any Republican that stands with them. Come on the world. The American people need a push to get rid of trump Canada. The true Americans love you guys

Canada will do what we want it’s funny to watch them talk tough though… thanks for fronting like you can affect us in any way… you are like a small lame state… we have 50 of those ..make that 51 now ?

while canada doesnt want to be 51 state, there’s Taiwan licking Trump and giving them 100billion USD in chip investment in Arizona, Trump’s happy right now

This is gonna hurt all Americans not some Americans and believe me other countries are feeling the same way about United States like Canada. We’re losing all our lives.

Can we become a state of Canada ?

There are no anti Americanism, there are anti trumpism both in Canada and in States.

This makes for even more reason for Canada to become the 51st state. This wouldn’t even be happening. Canada is basically like America anyway. Smh this is so stupid smh I can’t even watch the entire video smh it’s so dumb

Many people do not understand how tariffs impact the importation of goods and services. Canada lacks the infrastructure to produce the minerals required for electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing. Additionally, Canada does not possess the same international influence as the United States, particularly in military matters. As a result, Canadians may face more significant challenges, as their economy relies more on U.S. trade than the United States' reliance on Canada. Overall, Canada has a less developed economy and limited global influence.

Canada needs to strengthen there army because west Russia may invade to make them the 51st state ,

Canada is the 51st state. There was no reason for Trump to call it out. Now, you can see the desperation on Trudeau's face, and the Canadian reaction.

Sounds like all those Canadian tariffs will force industries back into the United States. Americans will definitely feel short term pain but I would imagine that long term, Canada will be the ones who suffer. ?

Trudeau would be better served if he started calling Canada the 51st State.

America is now run by a communist sympathiser and supported by communist friendly media its leader has already stated he wants to annex Canada, America must now be treated as a threat to all Western countries and isolated from all treaties as its future now lies in partnership with Russia

Is that why yourrrrrrrr people come down to Washington state for medical treatment and milk and eggs and fuel. And Trudeau worked with Chinese military In drills whilst in Canada.

Wow the United States got what they got because they voted stupidity, hatred, bigotry, racism,no experience, felonies, just to name a few?compared to these two men from Canada and Ukraine ?? who can read, speech different languages, have compassion, have experience, intelligence with integrity… WOW JUST BECAUSE AMERICANS DIDN’T WANT A AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN…who has everything thing in her fingernail that lil Donnie will never have? United States got a “good white boy”who happens to sleep with Satan???

1% of fentanyl come in from canada for the same reason less than 1% of tacos come from canada. the United States military is your border so chill tf out

Trump can’t gaslight anymore. Trudeau just stated the facts. Why are we appeasing the enemy and hurting our friend and neighbor, Canada? Trump is mentally ill. He’s a malignant narcissist and sociopath.

Canada already has tariffs on goods exported from the United States to Canada and we rarely have any on them so let me get my popcorn ? ready loading………. The 51st state ?️

The ChiComs, working with their Liberal minions, have made sure that any election will be rigged. Trump is trying to save Canada because he will send Troops into Canada to eject the Chinese military. He wants to do it with laws by getting Canada to join the USA. If that does not happen, he will use the military to do it, and Canada will be seen as the enemy of the USA allied with China. Trudeau admitted that without the welfare the USA has been providing to Canada, your economy will collapse. The Bank of Canada is bankrupt. The Canadian dollar is about to collapse. How will you feel next year when you need two dollars to buy what one dollar buys now? And plan on having fewer dollars to start with because your carbon tax, your sales tax, your income tax are all going up. WAY up. This is what happens when you decide to compete with a USA that is unshackled. The USA can produce more of our own oil than we can use, and we will sell the extra to YOUR foreign customers cheaper than you can produce it. Then you will be BEGGING for a pipeline. So Trump invited Canada to become a member of the most successful and powerful union of sovereign states in history, something that even our own territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, and all the others do not have. An invitation to be a bona fide member. Why do you think that is? Minerals? The USA has all the minerals we need. We have more oil, coal, and natural gas than any nation also, and we can produce and refine it cheaper than any country can. So Canada was invited to become a state so Trump could peacefully eject the ChiComs from North America. And did you accept? No. Did you say no thank you? No. You gave us the finger and said f&$k you to Trump. We hear you Canada. But now is not the time for pain, that comes later.

Unfortunately you have a real estate developer running the USA, so Greenland can be purchased, Gaza can become a riviera, Gulf of Mexico can be renamed, Ukraine can be arm twisted into handing over its minerals and Canada can become the 51st state so that it can be plundered of all its land and resources. Donald thinks he is intelligent and everyone else is stupid.

Just the fact that 100% of the illegal drugs and guns in Canada come from the states and no Canadian politicians blame US for it shows how humble Canadians are ?

51 State Canada ??

Trudeau is correct. I am ashamed of our current usa government and its treatment of its closest allies. We are no longer the leader of the free world. \nUnder trump the usa seems to be siding with putin and disrespecting, victimizing and bullying our closest and best allies. He refers to trudeau as governor, inferring he will be governor if canada were to join the usa. Such childishness and immaturity from the leader of our country. Our allies will realign with other countries. The usa has lost the free worlds trust. It will take the usa 20 plus years to regain respect.\nTrudeau is extremely well spoken, calm and states facts. How different from president trump.

Paula Newton, how dare you use the phrase anti-americanism! This is one of the most emotionally contained and dignified responses do the bullying president of the United States that I've heard so far. Trudeau has every right to be as pointed as he wants. I hate what Trump is doing and I live here! Trump doesn't speak for me. I have friends in Canada. Canadians are absolutely welcomed to help us do something to rein in the power of the dictator in training, Trump.

I am surprise Canada is reacting so badly against the US. Canada should focus on countering China and not the United States

Is Canada allowing any refugees from the U.S.??? I’m not joking. My whole family lives in red states like Indiana, Texas, and Kentucky (okay Ky is more purple I guess but definitely leans red despite the amazing blue Governor). We all want to move. It’s only 5 people but 3 of them are elderly. Is there any hope for us?

Here in the UK we appreciate friendship and loyalty. We will stand by Canada, Ukraine, the Baltic states and Denmark whatever happens.

I Chose to stand with Canada…My Apologies to all Canadians for the conduct of the Dictator Wannabe in our country, I for one did not and would never vote to put him in office.. Stay strong Canada for the Majority of the United States stands with you! In Solidarity to your cause. God Bless you all.

Millions of Americans and especially those of us in blue states do NOT support Donald and his fascist party. We are with you Canada and the rest of the free world

Canada must understand United States is not the enemy. There is a common enemy for both Canada and the United States which is China. Canada should focus on countering China and not the United States.

It's a matter of time, Canada is going to be 51st state.

Your General said this is isolating Canada. No it isn't. The UK, Europe and Asia are very open to trade. Indeed many have existing deals which can only grow.\n\nI hear that there are a great many frustrated Americans. Americans who don't want this trade war. Unfortunately Your commander in chief is Your voice on the World stage. His choices are effectively Your choices. HE represents your country. It's him we have to deal with, or not, as the case may be.\n\nUntil you can wrestle the House, the Senate and ultimately the Oval, off these walking-disasters The US with edge closer and closer to being a Paraiah state.\n\nGood luck with that. You're going to need it. The World is already making alternative plans wrt defence, trade and political ideology. All without the US... think about that....

This was Trump‘s idea not the people of United States. We love you, Canada.

Trudeau is going to lose Canada and make it the next state of America
