Go to bed Trudeau let’s go trade war it is we are done subsidizing your country!

make amerika again????...all country...give 100% tarifff to usa...let him alone in his war to his enemy

Donald Trump accused Zelensky of risking a third world war, he literally is a guy to provke the war - a trade war.

Trudeau is doing FAR more damage to Canada than Trumps tariff…STOP hiding behind this tariff war and let us vote you OUT !!!!

Canada started a trade war a long time ago. \nDairy Products: \nCheese - 245% \nMilk - 270% \nButter - 298% \nPoultry - 238% \nEggs - 163% \nBarley - 160% \nWheat - 94% \nSugar - 265% \nPeanut Butter - 295% \nRice - 150% \nVegetables - 100% \nFish Products - 100% \nLumber - 20% \nShoes - 30% \nCocoa - 30% \nMetals - 25% \nWool - 30% \nTobacco - $100+% \n \nTrump is actually being VERY NICE with a 25% tariff

WTF is happening in the world right now. With Starmer Dictating to its own citizens, trying to freeze its pensioners and starve them to death, to have hundreds of thousands homeless british people whilst giving free healthcare, homes, iphones, bags of cash etc to 1 million muslims, mostly illegals, geandmothers thrown in jail for a comment on social media, war veterans taken to court for social media posts which was not showing hatred but basicalky stating the obvious.. now Trump losing the plot altogether. Revigorating putins dictatorship, WTF is happening?

Why is this act taken as declaration of a trade war if the tariffs are supposed to be reciprocal??

Canada can joint Euroup and leave US War Trade. That means can be less headches.????

It's not the American people who want this trade war, it's our stupid president.

I don’t like Trudeau. I don’t like the way his country is suffering under his rule - by that I mean the poverty the Canadians are living in whilst he takes expensive vacations and eats 5 star food - and I agree more with the opposition. I also don’t like the black face joke he pulled years ago. But in this instance, against the trump administration, I fully support and agree with what he is saying. This is the stupidest trade war in history. This is going to screw up all countries involved. Stand for democracy!

Trump is playing right into Putin's hands obviously has never read a history book or two look at America's stance at the end of World War II and we've been fighting against the Russians ever since they are not America's friend

This American, who's been proud to be one all his, life (but not so much these last few weeks)stands with Canada, Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the besieged Ukraine, and I do not support's authoritarian rule and and stupid, ego-driven economic wars with our neighbors and allies. Trudeau is what a real leader sounds like.

I wonder if Trudeau can take that 1.3 billion to stop fentanyl entering the US and invest it back into healthcare and education? Trade war blows my mind. Trump you are an idiot.

Trudeau you want war by supporting more war.

Trade wars don't benefit anyone...... Except for the Governments that collect the Tariffs...... They are all in it together !!!

I never understood why people called Trump a threat to Democracy. But after seeing him break alliances with Ukraine and start trade wars with Canada their closest ally, while praising Russia. It all starts to make sense

Trump Vance, and musk are traitors to democracy! Their goal is to bring about a 1984 scenario where oligarchs in the US are in control of the Americas and regular people live to fight in their wars and in poverty

This is so stupid. I cannot believe we are in a trade war with Canada ffs. I stand with you Canada and Ukraine!

We’ve been to war with Canada and we’ve been to war with Mexico. We have not been to war with China or Russia. Not sure who are greatest friends really are.

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

You can’t win a trade war Canada

Trump thinks the Russian aggressor in Ukraine is blameless so are we surprised that he thinks starting a trade war is America's fault?

I'm a Canadian who has always voted for Prime Minister Trudeau and I will continue to vote liberal. I heard a person on the Jake Tapper, C NN, this afternoon say all the companies are coming to the USA not Canada, he didn't mention that they come because they don't have to pay a lot of taxes. Us Canadians take great offense that the spawn of the devil wants to annex our country and he refers to our Prime Minister as governor. The orange dumb criminal and his maggots would probably give part of our country to snakehead war tyrant putin who has interest in the Artic and that would involve Greenland. We Canadians don't want to make life difficult for the American people but the dumb evil cheeto likes tariffs. President Zelenski didn't start the war and he won't be the one to start WW3. putin is a war criminal who controls the criminal organization in the White House and it's leader. President Zelenski be careful the spawn of the devil ? and war tyrant can't be trusted. ?????

A trade war in the 21st century is so regressively stupid??

This man is not stupid he’s playing The people acting as if he’s tough and trump is inlove with Russia cause that’s all they have to stand on . And if Canada keeps on you will lose this trade war, we are 70% of your GDP !!

For all the ignorant people who know nothing about history between United States and Great Britain. Remember that the great queen Elizabeth’s allowed her grand sons, both of them to join us in at least two wars in the last 40 years.!!!!the UK RULES CANADA! Not one, but two large countries that stand with us the largest that there are.

Finally, someone calling things what they are. It's time to stop the bully. Trump is creating economic wars

Don’t let this Nazi Canadian send your children to war!

Mr. Trudeau please go to war with us, take us over and become our President, seriously, I am not joking. I want to leave the U.S. and work in Canada because of this evil regime.

I stand with Canada, he is trying to start a war!! Like wtf Is wrong with him!!

whole world had 200% inflation in covid and yall think 25% is a trade war? are you even able to google tariffs from other countries? are you aware all the oil and gas can be produced in the usa?

Take notice people. Their government is going to help their citizens financially during the trade war. Meanwhile, Our government is giving tax cuts to the rich. It's time we start calling out these billionaires

US Army Gulf War veteran who served with members of all races, ethnicities, etc. I loved serving with all of them. I pray for all my brothers and sisters who served/are serving . Not good times. God bless us all. AIRBORNE!!

One malicious Superpower in Eastern Europe brutally invaded it's neighbor \nand has led to a bloody war in the Ukraine. .\nOne 'friendly' Western Superpower launches a catastrophic economic war \non its neighbors, threatening to put their economies in a stranglehold using \ndevastating tariffs. \n\nPutin brakes the agreements he signed during the Minsk treaties in 2014-15. \nTrump breaks the USMCA agreements (formerly NAFTA) he signed in 2020. \nBoth Superpowers leverage their economic and military power to demand \nsubmission in order to extort concessions, and possibly more territory.\nJust how much difference is there,, really?

If your guy wants war you will have war..... vamos mexico!!!!

I NEVER thought i would see this day where we are at war with our neighbors! I arrived here in 1981 from UK with my family. \nI am utterly disgusted with the DONALD! \nMaybe he is a smart man, BUT doing DUMB THINGS!!!! \nWhat he is doing to the American people is one of the worst things you could do for your country! \n\nWe stand with you Americans from across the border here ! \n?? ??

I am so sad to hear about that, peace please, don’t do the tariff war, don’t do that

As??Russian Mafia continues a WAR ON PUTIN’S ENEMIES. Trump doesn’t have 2 KIDNAP Top Millionaire’s mimicking MBS HOTEL THEFT of?MONOPOLY Corporations. Billionaires Admin, crushing??Businesses. IN THIS DIVORCE ?? ?? \nI CHOOSE, CANADIAN CANUCKS 2 WIN THIS WAR, ? AGAINST HUMAN FREEDOMS.

As a Canadian Ive disliked Justin for many things hes done to our country, but 100% salute him for this speech he has done today, its heartbreaking to see this trade war happening between our closest neighnours

Justin Trudeau I believe what your saying and I totally disagree in Trumps tariff wars. I am sorry we are here. When Trump asks again about become a state of America tell him to go screw himself.

No retaliatory measures. No trade war. Join the US.

Funny... many many americans say they dont need canada. FAFO! This has gone too far. Look back on the war of 1812 between us and canada... and now look at the tomato clown undoing everything everyones been doing to stay allies. Hes delusional and needs to be taken out for being so god damn inhumane!

Chuck Zito, the former head of Hells Angels thinks his longtime friend, Donald Trump is greatest president America ever had. He attended Trump's court hearing. To stop drug trafficking, you have to investigate money laundering. I'm not sure how committed Donald is to this important aspect of the war against fentanyl.

To any Americans reading this: We love you. We have fought and died along side you on the battlefield for many years. When pearl harbor happened, we declared war on Japan before even you did. When 911 happened, we allowed your planes to land in Canada. We fed you and housed you. During the LA fires, we sent firefighters and water bombers to assist. You have always been our closest ally, and vice versa. You have always been able to rely on us. \n\nThat stops today, thanks to your president. Make your voices heard if you disagree with what is happening in your country. His diplomacy and tariffs will hurt the both of us. A lot of Trumps rhetoric is nothing but bald faced. inaccurate BS. We hope you see the truth with your own eyes and work to fix the damage Trump will cause.
