I stand with my President!!!!!! I have pride and love my country and have served my country as a military soldier and as a nurse! I have a clean record and no kids non marital!! I’m not getting gov assistance and I have lived a non victim life! President trump I pray for you as a real believer and outstanding citizen!

I'm a dutchman. Very well spoken premier Trudeau.

Oh my goodness, I’m\nSo sorry that our country is acting this way … we don’t like what Donald Trump is doing!

Trump i'm not going to lie this was.....dumb you could've sat down and talked to Canada Gov...smh.

I'm so sorry and ashamed, Canada! Your measures are appropriate under the circumstances. In spirit I stand with Canada!❤

You know there's an old saying that I'm sure Trump is very wise about you keep your friends close and your enemies closer I would say the way Canada is talking they consider us an enemy look at all these other countries that suddenly lined up against America who bailed all of them out of World War II and who brought down the Berlin Wall that shows how thankful you are and America's been paying the highest of the EU and the United Nations than any of you chicken countries I would just laugh at all of you you don't get it and all these comments are from Liberal Democrats who hate Trump it's real obvious that's who his fan base is Trudeau the little boy from the north who's not smart enough to come in from the cold poor guy he's in for a rude awakening she thinks he's going up against America and that we believe any of his BS

I’m Ukrainian and Canadian, and I’ve never been prouder ?? ??

I will say this,Trump is a hell a lot better then biden, but I'm against tariffs altogether

Keep standing proud, Canada, and Ukraine. Most Americans definitely understand that this is unnecessary and not what we as a nation stand for. Don't be bullied, or shamed into any deal with this administration. It's full of greed and absolutely untrustworthy. Please don't blame us all. I'm a metro Detroit resident. Canada is my neighbor and friend.

CNN correspondence never gives the more impactful concerns - in this case, the concern should be the fact that DT is attacking Canada, our friends, and Mexico, our friends - because he's a fkn traitor - and the US Constitution that says it's our American duty to stop people like him. The government and the common people must be overlooking these crimes and willing to give up their rights and freedoms. The original KGB and the long running Putin agenda is the slow game in his global conquest for power. You have to consider the geopolitics. If Mexico and Canada won't defend us (because they hate Trump) DT can/will sell out America to Russia, in turn Canada would be the closest place to conquer, then Mexico. It's stupid tho, unless the UN stands back and watches this happen too. Think I'm bullshittin, reading too far into things, but I'm not. Nobody is at the wheel but Trump, and he doesn't even know how to drive. You, the people and corporate new media will never read far enough to get the entire picture. Krasnov stole the Country to handicap us in the Cold War, except the War is white hot. He's in line with Hitlers handbook. And don't forget, that Nazis were white people who had no problem offing white people. Just sayin. Nobody is safe in Trump country. It's all Biffed up now.

I’m American..I love the people of Canada & Mexico..and the beautiful land of both countries. I truly believe illegal fentanyl will become a presidential justification for annexation of our allied countries. Putins attack on Ukraine has emboldened a specific American to seek out his own tress passing, imho. I pray I’m wrong..but when someone tells you what they want, unreasonable or not, I’ve learned in my lifetime to believe them

What a beautiful speech, I’m American and I’ll always stand with America.

I can't wait for Trump's state visit to the UK, I'm licking my at the reception he's going to get.....eggs at the ready!

Canada has two modes , I'm sorry. and your about to be sorry Donald love to the American people Take back your country protest loud come together show the world what democracy is

Sadly I’m an American democrat that actually feels relieved that Canada is there. I feel like they are the grownups watching us learn from our bad choices. Thank you Canada.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but by them putting a 25% tariff on USA goods. Wouldn't it hurt them?

I'm so embarrassed by what Trump is doing to this country! I stand with Canada ??

The difference between the reality show Putin clown and Trudeau is so stark. I'm not sure how to handle four years of this.

I'm a Canadian, we have a massive piece of land and small population.\nWe should be friends with everyone. Never pick sides.\nTo look into history, U.S never be friends with anyone. They are only friends with money!\nI don't go against the Americans, but we also have to take care of our own economy.\n\nTrump just find an excuse to blame Canada so he can tariff the Canadian. We never do things to harm our neighbours. \nI spent thousands of dollars every year in Vegas and have multiple times shares there, but they chose to put a rope on us!\n\nI don't go against Russia and China either because we all have one common goal, that is a better life for all and there's nothing wrong with it!\n\nDon't worry too much about Trump, he is old and likes to show the world that he is powerful before he is gone! \nCanadian will ride through good and bad times. We all have to work together because we are hard working Canadians!

I'm from Maine with a Franco American heritage. I am heartbroken today… remembering open borders between our countries, no passport required. I support Canada ?? and Canada's leadership looking out for their people.

I'm bout to jump on to Civ 6. All this tension between the world leaders making me wanna take on the world ?

Exactly Me Treadaeux Exactly Mr Trudeau! He who shall not be named is not my president. Nothing he is implementing will hurt his wallet!! It will only harm those of us who are working class! I’m sorry for this, but I did Not vote for him. I am utterly shocked at my fellow Americans who voted for him. If I had the resources I would be looking for another country to call home!

I'm an American and I do NOT WANT this. But we have a President who doesn't give one sh** about what the majority of Americans want and need. IT'S ALL ABOUT HIM.

I’m American. Good for you! We dont want this either. We people of America love Canada and its citizens.

Admire PM Trudeau. Our “president,” not so much! I’m mortified and embarrassed. This is NOT our America! Apologies from the citizens of the US for what we cannot control…b/c our leaders are NOT serving OUR interests. ?

Oh America why did you vote for Donald Trump. Now I'm afraid Canada will close the boarder to Americans just like the other countries that does not want American tourists. America will be the most hated country very soon. Hate to be an American right now?

I’m so ashamed of my country right now. I did not vote for Dump. \n\nWe will end up with no allies and the American dollar is already depreciating.

Very well spoken. Most Americans do not want this. It's dumb..just like you said. I'm sorry that this is happening between our countries.

I’m born and raised in Texas, and I fully stand by Canada.

As an American who lives within a 100 miles of Canada, I'm sorry that my country implemented these insane tariffs. God keep your land glorious and free.

I stand with you, Canada and Prime Minister Trudeau. I love that you have a reasonable, decent, humane adult leader, Canada, and not an insane, bloated, screaming orange toddler. I'm so sorry America has allowed this to happen, and I'm grieving for our formerly friendly relationship. Not all of us wanted this. Please forgive those of us who stand with you and our allies and not with Tr*mp, Vance, and Putin. I love you, Canada! ?? ? ?? ❤

I’m so proud to be Canadian ❤the world needs to stand up for bullying

I’m an American and I love Canada!!!?

I think Trudeau is resigning though. How sad. We need good leaders like him. I'm a US citizen and I want Trudeau to remain Prime Minister of Canada. I don't understand why he has to go.

I’m Canadian and I’m terrified for us as well as all the innocent people that will be affected by this. I find it curious though that past presidents haven’t made any remarks, at least that I’ve seen, about all the things Trump has done in the last six weeks. Where are the condemnations about tariffs, the way Zelensky was treated and the fact that Trump is the one letting human traffickers (allegedly) across the border? As in Andrew Tate and his brother. Trump is the one allowing criminals in. Trump is the one about to sell gold cards to anyone for $5,000,000. That will include known terrorists.

I’m a US citizen immigrated from the Philippines and I agree with Canada. We need a leader like Trudeau.

I'm an American Army soldier and I stand with Canada

Thank tou PM Trudeau. I'm against this. Trump and his minnions are the ones who want this.? l believe you.hes not my president. My flag is upside down.Canada .be well❤

I’m Canadian now ? I like him

As an anxious autistic British American I will always stand with my fellow Canadian friends this is beyond diabolical I’m so disgusted for the people that voted for this convicted felon president ??‍♀️

as an american, i’m so scared. please do not abandon us. we are living paycheck to paycheck— and that’s those of us with jobs. we’ve put our heart and souls into voting over the past 9 years and they haven’t counted in decades. \n\ncorporate entities are running our country— politicians are no longer working for the people. we need help.

Wow! A True leader that speaks Truth!!! I'm American & I stand with Canada, Mexico & Europe, as well as with Ukraine. It is past time for our military to go rogue & remove this Cabal that is not only destroying our democracy but the world.

Let’s go Trudeau ?? this Pariah Govt must Go. Well said without casting Blame and Whining using propaganda and having weasels like musk and all his appointees to do these sick acts this is the darkest chapter in American history. I’m happy to see Canada and Mexico are the lights at the end of the tunnel. Trump and Co. Are weak individuals, there way is not the American way they can go to Russia with that nonsense.

Careful, he'll say you started it. I'm an American who spent time playing in the CFL. The people of Canada couldn't be nicer or a more fair people. They are reasonable, smart & polite. Please America don't be fooled. THEY WILL NOT STAND FOR YOUR ARROGANT ENTITLEMENT. #FAAFO I stand with 'Oh Canada'!

I am American and absolutely loathe what trump is doing, and I'm not alone. Canada is doing the right thing here. Canada - please know that most Americans are on your side.

I’m a Canadian and Trudeau is a tyrant conniving two-faced drama queen.

he called orange man 'Donald' LMFAO ????? GO CANADA!!!! i'm sorry my idiot government is doing this...

As soon as Trudeau or any other Canadian Liberal MP says, “Let me be crystal clear,” or refer to clarity, you can be sure that there is dishonesty happening! This guy has been working on Canada’s destruction for 9 years. He has given away Billions of taxpayers hard earned dollars to those of his choosing, as though it were his to give. He has been financially running Canada into the ground with the help of his financial advisor, Mark Carney. He has let The Canadian Armed Forces disintegrate for lack of funding, while choosing to refuse payment to NATO and those who help to defend Canada. He and his Government have been involved with billion dollar scandals and have become a major force of “Legalized Crime!” Now he wants to lay the blame for his poor leadership on the US. Unfortunately, many Canadians don’t see the truth! The Canadian News Media support the Government and suppress the truth by backing the Government Propaganda and by twisting the truth into untruth! It’s a childish game being played by an entitled child who doesn’t care about the people he was supposed to be leading. I would imagine, that if their Conservative Party Leader Poilievre wins the upcoming election, he will be able to straighten out many of the troubles that have been caused by the World Economic Forum Puppets and their agenda. I doubt that the Canadian People are in favor of the agenda of having nothing and being happy. What foolishness the elites expect people to believe. I’m sure that our Government will be able to get it all ironed out when Canada gets a leader that really cares about their people and not about those fake Carbon Taxes. It’s very interesting to watch what’s going on up in Canada! Interesting but sad, because they don’t have the ability to impeach a bad, unethical leader…

I’m so embarrassed of my country, the USA, right now. We want you to know many of us do not support Trump!

Respect! I think Trudeau speaks plainly about the madness of the latest tariffs. I'm pleased that he speech was measured and polite. And how he spoke directly to people in the USA, dismissing the totally unjustifiable reasons Trump has made for implementing the tariffs.
