Soy boy Trudeau thinks America is scared of this, he is the one who needs to start sweating bullets.

How has everyone so quickly forgotten the reason for these tariffs. Canada has not stemed the flow of fentanyl. They contuine to poison their own people and ours. We ask them to stop or we impose tarrifs, they say they will stop, then they do not stop. Trudeau is full of bullsh!t go to our northern border in WA or NY and just ask the locals. They see the illegals all the time. They cross the border and then call for help. Its gotten so bad that if you do call to turn yourself in and get a court date, border patrol has a daily wait time of 1 1/2 to 2 hours just to make initial contact. Think about that, what about the criminals and smugglers who dont call.

Ask your self why we give money away to foreign countries while others give money as a loan. The world needs the USA. Canada can’t protect Ukraine, Germany,can’t do it. So who will? If our allies think they can do it better then bring our troops home. Watch what happens to their economies. Let their sons and daughters be the first to go in. Let us play a support role. We used to be the police of the world now they want us to be the bank and the police of the world enough is enough.And I’m a veteran as well.

Ask our best friend there to the north how come Canadians get a dual citizenship to live in the US an American citizens can't. I think we've been more ingenious in the past to them and all the rest that distilled from our country.

take back everything you instated for trump with border security and let them deal with there own drug problems... and start refusing american goods at the border... tell them we only pay a set amount or send it back! when the US asks why we did it we can tell them it was to cover the costs of tarriffs that trump thinks the government pays... well lets make his words ring true at their expense!

I would like to know what the Trump voters are thinking right now?\nBecause your president is destroying your country…and barely in a month!

I’m sorry that Trump is so unreasonable. Trump only cares about the income that will benefit the rich, himself and power. The tariffs will effects jobs and people. Trump is an embarrassment to most of the people here. Elon Musk help him win the election by paying people to vote for Trump which I think should be against the law. Trump is putting the USA in a very dangerous place. Most of us stand with Canada and Ukraine but no one can bring Trump to reason. I really think Trump is plain outride stupid. Please keep fighting for Canada.

Trudeau should go home and review their tariffs on the US. These are “reciprocal tariffs” which means you get what you give. Trudeau is a walking moron, he needs to just move on out. He thinks he’s going to hurt the US? He’s a joke.

Common guys. Think about all the professional sports teams yall can call home. We dont want french canada tho.

This American went out to the liquor store this morning and bought a bottle of Crown Royal Black. I will be thinking of our beloved neighbors as I enjoy a glass of it this evening ?.

This is one of the saddest days in history. I hate what President Trump is doing. It is beyond comprehension. \nI wish he would change his way of thinking. My deepest apologies to Canadians for what my country is doing.

I think Trump is trying to get people and govts back for what they did to him.

Being a veteran means ? in america just like the flag and anthem don't mean ?....I know and seen veterans with Nazi SS and confederate flags ....I wouldn't help or give them aide...or piss on them if on fire... Canada should play the bullies own game...his mind set is to hold his bowls just because he thinks he don't need toilet tissue.....just give it time....his mind is going to loose when his bowls pressure builds...... believe me ? going to happen whether he likes it or not.....with or without tissue...✌️? Go Canada

Another moron who thinks can bluff without any cards ?

Yes I think that is a dumb thing done by one person abondoning and hurting allies and friend.

Trump is inspired by Mr Beast games strategy. If you cant do better than the toughest enemies, attack your nearest friends. China and Russia, and even India laugh at USA now. EU now is cornered from 3 sides at least. Mexico was the bread of Americans, think about it.

so you knew there was a problem on border??only after Trump said something then you woke up....think about that!!!

I start to think there is something in the water in the USA. How can millions of people be fooled and misled at such a massive scale by that clown in the White House. Another sad day in us history

I KNOW Canada was expecting this because frump first attacked frump's own nation...and the areas close to the Capitol. As he plays golf. I don't think he cares....when one gets older, they stop tryna negotiate and just start being who they truly are...in this case, a NARCISSIST LYING FELON who doesn't realize that when one goes to HeIl, stop, drop & roll doesn't work cuz you didn't know Jesus.

For the racist Americans who chose an idiot who has the business finesse of a 5 year old ( bankrupted a casino where the house always wins...Damn!!!) sit back and cheer!! If you think ? the rich will bale you out then you are the biggest of A-holes. Enjoy the clown ? show and kudos to Canada!!!! Note: the key to drug abuse is not the drugs BUT the drug users and abusers. That's just a distraction people!! ??

It's cute that Trudeau thinks facts matter to the U.S. President or the GOP government.

You were wrong at one point only, Trump is not smart, he is as dumb as his actions. In a few weeks he messed up the free western world holding hands with Putin?! Used to love the US and went there every year for holidays.. now we will go to Canada.. as a Swede I think I would like both the land and the people. Your president seems to be great?

If trump has ambitious it gonna be devastation, im sure trump lately has saw for the first time the global map and realise what can the mighty force annexe, he start already thinking like dictator.

Anyone thinking the war in Ukraine shouldn’t stop immediately is a war monger. \n\nThe war is over if you want it to be.

Translation. I did exactly what you said before even if it made others miserable. Now you treat me like you asked me to do to others? You think I am the same as the others? Don’t you see that I am superior to them? My heart is bleeding.

Did you guys every think maybe the border guarding is an issue so that people can't escape once we start starving?

One man is destroying the whole world. Making enemies with all are allies. But nothing to help the working class that are struggling. And maga is clueless they think he's a tough guy and don't even care to really fact check and see they are going to suffer the most.

Trump thinks the rich come first, countries come second, people come last.

It’s funny how everyone thinks it’s one sided but Canada already has 25% tariffs against us, we’re literally just matching them.

you know we americans are pathetic. throw some unwarranted tariffs against canada and it bonds all Canadians together ready to fight. take a foreign born, unelected billionaire who takes a chainsaw to our government after a reactionary think tank wrote a document saying they were going to destroy our government an create an autocracy--- a think tank composed of people who are now in the trump administration----and now we are aligning with Putin and we americans do nothing. this is sad. we are losing our country

I think this is an initial step of Trump trying to get Canada’s natural resources. I don’t know how it would play out, but that’s the only thing I can make sense of based on Trump’s broader actions and comments.

Just think America, your only allies now are the Russians...... Good luck

I think Donald is still upset over Melania's kiss on your cheek. She appeared more interested in you than Donald. Ouch, a childish revenge move.

I don’t think Trump is doing enough! If

Près Trump must think more than twice bcos it is no way alright for his country men nor the world.

Americans send emails to Congress and House reps to tell them what you think!

Now Canada thinks Justin is a good guy, funny how that works

HI FROM CANADA. WE ARE NOW AT WAR WITH THE USA... SORRY ABOUT THAT. YOU ARE NOT WELCOME. GO AWAY, STAY AWAY UNTIL YOU JAIL THE NAZI RUNNING YOUR GOVERNMENT... BUT IT'S TOO LATE. YOU WERE TOO LAZY TO ACT. YOU ARE NOW A NAZI STATE AND THERE WILL BE NO MORE ELECTIONS. AND YOU THINK I'M KIDDING. NOPE... AMERICANS GET OUT OF CANADA, STAY OUT. YOU ARE NOT WELCOME. LGBTQ REFUGEES FROM THE NAZI REGIME WILL BE TAKEN IN.

As a Frenchwoman with friendly ties to the United States and Canada, I am horrified by what the Americans are doing to the Ukrainians. And I think this trade war is a splendid gift for the Chinese. What's happening to the leader of the free world ?

As a western Canadian- hows it feel Justin- thats how you have treated us for 9 years. Bend over Ontario and Quebec, I kinda think it looks good on you. If we had our parliament in this probably would have been avoided, but thanks to the Liberals our Premiers have had to do the work.

maybe tariffs implemented not because of drugs, but just because JD Vance thinks that Canadians were not thankful enough

Trump is so far out of line. Make America great again. I don't think so unless Trump falls from Putin's stairs.

@kayingalls6095\n0 seconds ago\nYou just don’t do this to your neighbors. This is not good for either side and how can you put such a divide between us. If you think this is another means of making us the 51 st state it’s not gonna work. You are not God nor a King and we will not bend to your needs.

I thought the petulant boy king had stepped down due to his corruption? Now, he thinks he can lecture??

What would make Canadian conservatives not be pro Trump? And/or not blame Trudeau and the center/left of center Canadian national government? Don’t they think that a Conservative PM would react the same way Trudeau is reacting?

What is going to happen with NORAD? I am Canadian and I would have never expected such nonsense coming from an American president! I truly believe that Trump wants a third world war because he thinks it would help his country’s economy. He is definitely the worst president of the USA ever!

No Teleprompter, No name calling, just calm logic. Trump, in his abject stupidity, does not realize he is hurting Americans as much as Canadian, nor does he care. I would only challenge Trudeau on calling Trump 'smart' - only Trump thinks he is smart. He is a semi-literate moron.

An ex-KGB chief: “In 1987 I worked in… the KGB of the USSR in Moscow… our department recruited the 40 year-old businessman from the USA, Donald Trump, nicknamed “Krasnov”. That’s when Trump starts buying full-page ads attacking NATO. “Putin is doing a great job of outsmarting our country.” He says. Steele report: Russian operatives gathered damaging video evidence of perverted sex acts of presidential candidate in 2013, for blackmail. Mueller said “There were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election.” Trump campaign had more than 140 contacts with Russian operatives, and Trump attempted to obstruct justice at least ten times. Campaign chair lied about then finally admitted to sharing info with Russian spy. Trump, ignoring US intelligence said: “…Putin, he just said it wasn’t Russia. I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be.” Secret meeting in Trump Tower with Russkies. Jared attempts to set up secret back channel to Russia in the Russian embassy. Trump to NATO member on prospect of Russian attack on their country “In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.” Trump: “If Putin likes Donald Trump… That’s called an asset…” Yeah, a Russian asset. FBI chief Kash Patel was paid $25,000 to appear in anti-FBI video by Russian backers. “The love in the air, I’ve never seen anything like it” Trump said of January 6 rioters, some of them cop-killers… “Russia if you’re listening…” “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily…” Yes, they own a seditious, treasonous felonious American president. All allegedly…

Stupid US government.\nStupid voters.\nTo think that tariffs are good for the American economy.\nGood for American workers and consumers...

Very good speech. I think Trump is doing this to sabotage Canadian economy, but Americans will feel the pain.
