The master plan is probably align with Putin and squeeze Canada until it becomes a US territory.

Sure. We don't need Canada. You guys should understand what we do for Canada before you become afraid..

TRUMP HAS NO BRAINS. SO CANADA CANNOT BE FOOLED BY HIS POLICIES. SADLY VERY SOON US WILL BECOME 3 RD WORLD COUNTRY. IF THE CHINESE PULL THE SOVEREIGN BONDS OUT. WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO US. CANADA WE CAN STAND ON OUR OWN WITH ALL GOD GIVEN RESOURCES AMEN.

Is there a way Oregon and Washington state can become Canada's 11th province? please? Oregon

Justin Trudeau, you did this to Canada. It’s so disrespectful calling the sitting President Donald. Why don’t you go raise carbon taxes, send our money to Ukraine and bring in another 10,000 Sudan’s when your people are sleeping on the street. This speech is a joke, look at yourself in the mirror and say all this to yourself. Also, stop lying that only a small percentage of fentanyl go into the states from Canada! You’re lying and need to stop holding our country hostage so the conservatives can clean up YOUR mess just like they’re doing in the US! Thanks to you many Canadians are excited and wish to become the 51st state because you’ve made Canada such a threat to the US National Security. You brought in millions of unvetted immigrants, terrorists and allowed so much crime. CNN shame on you. You’ve fed these poor people so many lies they have no idea of the corruption going on. Thank God Justin is gone. Bye Bye Governor Trudeau.

I stand with Canada from Scotland , what a disaster DT has become , shame on him having Scottish hertage.

Just Ike our Country (Canada)\n\nSaid ; your president kept: insulting. \nOur Prime Minister- by cslling \n\nHim Governor : that is an insult to our \nPrime Minister of Canada ?? \n\n\nWe will never be. Part of the us ,\n\n\nAnd your country is. Cosing up to \n\nRussia ! \n\nCanada ?? is your friend \n\n\n\nIt’s all about. Your president \n\n\n\nWanting our country to become \n\nA part of America \n\n\nThat is what this is all about \n\n\nCanada ?? I’d not for saie \n\nAnd never will be. !

Trudeau let's Trump get the upper hand....oof, bad move Trudeau. Looks like Canada could actually become the 51st state now.

This trade war with Canada must end. The only way to do that is for Canada to become our fifty-first state. The sooner you admit that Justin the better.

Perhaps the US should become Canada's 11th province.

Maybe the USA should become a new Canadian province. Go Canada!

YOU GO CANADA. I am Portuguese standing for Canada. I was in Afghanistan under the EU flag. I't amazing how the U.S has become under a Putin lookalike. The U.S now has it's on Trumputin. WHAT IS HAPPENING???

Canada has become a shithole.

As an American, I don’t watch CNN clips and believe what politicians say on either side to get my news. However, it’s absolutely true that EU, and China places tariffs on the US. It is also true that United States provide most of the security for all the free nations. At what point do we say enough? I do not know if Mexico or Canada has tariffs on US goods before this. But if they did, they have become quite entitled, haven’t they.

Stupid prime minister, he can't do anything to USA ,better Canada become part USA as 51th state ,Canada is filled up terrorist activity and all evil has filled near USA ,which now USA understood better trudo understood that you are nothing, ❤

Australia stands with Canada, Europe and Ukraine. America will become another isolated country run by a despot that serves Russia, no better than North Korea, and the American people will suffer the same poverty North Korea and Russia suffer because only the rich elites benefit under fascist dictatorships.

I know this economic war on Canada will be difficult enough already but I urge my friends north of the border to do their best to fund a massive military expansion as rapidly as possible. Trump is clearly setting the stage and manufacturing excuses so he can invade and force Canada into becoming his 51st state and he's not going to stop with just trying to cripple your economy. Don't make Europe's mistake of thinking Americans are honorable friends and allies who can be trusted to keep their word. We're nothing but a bunch of ignorant, nasty, greedy, white supremacists who hate every other people on Earth. As a US Army veteran, I am ashamed of my country's unprovoked brutality once again.

As an American, I can say I 100% stand with Canada and their response. Trump and his henchmen are LITERALLY severing ties with our greatest allies while simultaneously sucking up to scumbag Putin! I can’t understand how this can be a good thing? We’re becoming just another authoritarian nation at this point…

What the heck does Putin have on Donnie? Was it pedophilia on Epstein's Island? was it sex with boys and girls? Was it the mythical pee tapes? Whatever it is it has to be big enough to get Donnie to break with all the US's traditional allies which has to be making Putin rub his hands with glee. How far does this adjudged rapist, and 34 count felon that the US decided it wanted to make it's President, have to go before someone steps in and say that Trump represents a clear and \npresent danger to the economic and military security of the world? His administration forced New York's director of the FBI to resign because that man did not want to give up the names of personnel who investigated the Jan 6 insurrectionists. He put a known Russian apologist, Tulsi Gabbard, in charge. He has frozen aid to a country actively fighting for it's very survival against an aggressive and expansionist Russia. He applied tariffs against Canada and threatens the same against Europe., he has banned the freedom to protest in colleges though he freed people imprisoned for rising in actual insurrection against the Government. Dictatorship comes in steps isolation from the world and suppression of freedoms are but two. The free world weeps for what the US is becoming under this current administration.

I hope Canada will become a beautiful new European Union state. You are welcome, dear Canadians. We would love to buy your crude oil and maple syrup (yum!).

Oh give me a break! Canada has been right along with the U.S on becoming friends with murderous dictators. Saudi Arabia for one. All the middle east folks, the warlords etc. Don't be fooled. All those people up there are not looking out for your best interests.

This is nothing to do with Fentanyl. Trump is giving Canada the unpleasant medicine it desperately needs to cure from the woke mind virus. The weak DEI type will not survive. Only then will Canada become strong and a worthy partner to the reborn USA.

I was almost born in Canada but because of an thyroid illness they did not aprove my mom to come to Canada (late 50`s) So my dad and grandfather decided to stay in the Netherlands. I have a soft spot for Canada........ could have been my home country. Good luck to all of us against dictators and bullies in this world. Who would have thought this will happen after 80 years of peace after a terrible world war and now becoming a threath again because of a few, so called wise men but actually todlers that never want to give in.

Canada must become a state. ??

Beware there is absolutely no doubt DON-OLD is going to try and bleed Canada to annix it! This is DON-OLDs end goal!! ???? \nWe need to form a protest coast to coast set a date and time, wearing anything Canadian and signs to dhow DON-OLD what we really think about becoming 51st state and tariffs! \nCome on Canadians let fight, fight, fight!! ?✊??????\n\nresistance

I am a USA citizen and a veteran. Trump's behavior doesn't represent this countries heart. This is an embarrassment and stains what we all believe and fought for. Canada, Mexico, Greenland and Europe beware. It seems Trump's greed and ego are out of control. These actions seem to be putting your countries in notice that Trump doesn't view you as allies. I believe he will pull out of NATO . Please pull together with Europe and become non reliant on Trump. Become an economic force without this wanna be king. Examine protecting your borders from Trump . Hopefully we the people of the USA will act to take our country back before it's too late.

CNN cut out what our Prime Minister ?? was going to say as to the real reason why we are getting hit with Tariffs which is this,,,to economicaly cripple us so Trump can Annex Us,,Take over Canada,,,,we have what Trump wants,,Our minerals,water, rich resources,,,he wants to be like Putin his idol,,,,That is the real plan Americans,,,please wake up to this and get him out of office ,,,your country is slowly becoming a dictatorship brick by brick under Trump and his regime,,,

The tariffs are just the first step, Trump wants Canada to become a 51 country

The USA should become Canada’s 11th province—by the people’s own free will! What a sharp and articulate President! That would be a total upgrade from Trump. ?

Canada you can become part of Europe anytime, you are always welcome. ❤

Trump is looking for an excuse to go to war, so he is escalating. He wants to invade Canada the same way Russia attacked Ukraine for the Black Sea and argicultural land. The US is now communist, not Marxist, but in the lane of Stalin and Putin. Wake up America, you are becoming the bad guys. You are aligning with the Axis powers.

“I am Canadian, and I support Trump because our leaders are a joke. They delay pipelines, restrict the open market, and refuse to trust foreign investment from China or overseas. Instead of strengthening the economy, they bring in a million immigrants while ignoring real growth. If we’re going to rely on America anyway, we should join it becoming the 51st state would make North America stronger.\nIf Canada retaliates against the U.S., it won’t be the government that suffers it’ll be us. Our leaders look weak and desperate. \nWith 25% tariffs, Canada is heading for economic disaster. Companies are moving to America, jobs are disappearing, and our future is at risk. Look at Europe 23 countries share the euro and open borders. We should do the same by becoming 51st state.\nIt’s time to negotiate with Trump and secure real benefits more businesses, better telecom, cheaper flights, lower food costs, affordable housing, a shared currency, and the right to bear arms. Canada would be stronger and wealthier as part of America.”?? ??????\nWe are still Canadians

Serves Canada right as are many other countries. We have relied to much on America for too long. \nIn the long run this is better because we will become stronger and more independent.

Anything But American did not have to be, but it will take a generation for the fall out to become a thing of the past after this gross attack is ended. As a senior I can say that I will be gone before reciliation will be achieved. Trump signed the free trade agreement with Canada 5 years ago and he has proven the America is not to be trusted and treaties are meaningless. Trump, and by extension America, has walled itself in to keep the world out. Americans have been less than welcome in some places, now those places include their neighbours. Carrying American dollars and the American flag abroad will not be looked at the same as it was just last year.

Relationships and trade deals will get stronger between Europe and Canada. \nUSA is isolating itself and becoming the baddies of the world. Trump and Musk are damaging the country so bad.

This is only the beginning. The pressure for Canada to accept becoming an US state will get to levels you guys don't even imagine now. He will go as far as invading you and take you by force. He wamts your huge territory and resources. Unless the congress impeaches him, you will be taken by force. I know this sounds crazy but, considering everything that's happening in the world, his desire to pull out of Europe etc, I believe he sees Canada as an easy huge territory to annex. And he thinks nothing can stop him.

This clown is about to Go to his masters in LONDON and Canada will become another US state.

The real reason for Donald Trump to implement the tariffs is to force Canada to become a state of USA. period.

I think Trump wants to brake Canada ,bring us to our knees and force us to give up and say ok we'll become your 51st state,and why does he want to take us over well thats easy ,he wants to take over and control are resource's And i have yet to hear why Trump says we have abused American for years,like how have we done that?

Canada is weak without the U.S\nIt will soon become Russia

SHUT THE EFF UP TRUDEAU! You've destroyed Canada enough- you'll do nothing to stop MAGA- Canada will crumble due to your ego! I need to become American somehow. I hate it here.

Im form Germany and i will open my arms if Canada wants to join the EU. That would be a big jump for Europe and Canada to become Independent from the US. Slava Ukraini

I can confidently say as a Canadian, what Trump has done and continues to do is driving the biggest wedge between Canada and the USA. The jokes of Canada becoming a 51st state is outrageous and i speak for many fellow Canadians when saying - WE WILL DIE AS CANADIANS before bending the knee to America. This is exactly what Russia wants and the only true winner from this will be the countries praying on Canada and the US's downfall.

I stand with canada and Mexico. My question is why trump chose such a idiotic path? Its like he wants to cause chaos. It's like he wants to destroy our stability. He seems to be more like Putins tool everyday. This is action and others are not acceptable. Id like to introduce a bill to allow a special election by the people to remove any president or elected official whoes actions are detrimental. I think a 2/3 majority is fair. I welcome and comments to my post. Im just a concerned citizen trying to keep some control over our country when our checks and balances have become inadequate.

All my support from France to Canada. Democracies that are true to their values need to neuter Trump. There is no other way. Being a felon, a fraud and a sexual predator wasn't enough. He also had to become a threat to the world order that has stood firm since 1945. He and his boss Putin belong in jail.

Canada and Europe must become a block against the USA

Unheard unimagined things have become reality in US and Canada alliance ?

I STAND WITH AMERICA ?? . CANADA CAN BECOME OUR 51ST STATE AND NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE TARIFFS AT ALL.??

Why does he talk to trump as if he were an ally of Canada? It should have become clear by now that trump is an agent of Russia. Putin’s puppet. Trump is carrying out Russian instructions.

Build a wall, Canada! Build it now. We are watching The Handmaid's Tale become a reality
