That's why all you canadians hate.The americans don't sit down and say that you're kind, loving people, because you don't, you canadians, can't stand us

So proud of our PM, I love watching him, he's pissed! We really aren't that nice. Especially when attacked by an unhinged lunatic. Stay mad Justin, and thank you for standing up for all Canadians.

Love Canadians ??

Speaking from the UK here, the British people love both Canadians and Americans, but on this one we are taking one side, and that side is Canada's. We know a lot of Americans do too.

Australia stands with Canada. We love our Canadian cousins ????? Slava Ukraine! ????

Iam so sorry about this Canadians. This is just bully shit. Americans love you guys .we stand with you all. We know are lives will get worse before it gets better for us not because of Canada.its because the orange man.?

We know. You have to stand up to that traitor! We love Canada but it's only right that you fight back! You are our sisters and brothers and we want the Canadian people to flourish.We love you! ??♥️????\n\nTrump invented that excuse about the fentanyl in regards to Canada! That's not why he imposed the tariffs!\n\nP.S. He's not smart, just greedy and wiley.

I am proud to be a Canadian. Our president’s speech very calm and kind, Even the most difficult time. Love Canada and very proud to be Canadian.

Ok democrats!! \n\nDemocrats: we love canada, he is patriotic\n\nRepublican: Yeah!! No worries America can supply our own!! We will find another source!! So cute!! \n\nCry Democrats Cry!! Until no tears left in your eyes!! kamala LOST!! Deal with it!! Your Gay Canadian Prime Minister Sucks

Trump is a sadist. He loves to bend people and control/harm them. He is a very sick man, as his dementia, added to his sociopathy, unravel all the good between the two countries. The man feels no shame. He will not change, nor will Musk, Vance, Johnson, etc.... They are drunk on power and choose not to change their behavior. I am so sorry to all Canadians. ?

I love Canadian and this country

i'm canadian in canada we love our american neighbours just not what's in the white house

Love our Canadian partners! Please forgive those of us who DID NOT vote for this individual. He is an embarrassment, pathetic representation of who we are as Americans!

From NY. REAL Americans stand with our Canadian brothers and sisters. \n\nI love Canada and how it's always had our backs through thick and thin.

Canadians love 3 things: maple syrup, saying sorry and war. Yes. Canadian actions during both world wars... let's just say that the bottle up anger and release it in these events. You can expect no Canadian buying US made products if possible

Anyone who ever was a victim of bullying understands exactly what is going on and how it will end for those who wants to appease/bend to the bully. Yes, it will be painful for Canada, extremely. But you have to get really sick in order to recover stronger than ever before. Zelensky knew the inner workings of how bullies work so he probably knew the white house meeting won't end cordially especially it is occupied by people he has no love for and he understood the lack of love was mutual. I think he'd bent over and wagged his tail if he thought that'd help his nation but knowing that will not get his country anywhere anyways, why would he bend over and try to please someone who was determined to screw him and his country to begin with. Zelensky saw how Canadian prime minister was treated and how he tried to please Mr. T yet to no avail. Yes, Zelensky has no real good, readily available cards to play. If the game is rigged, no reason to play by your rule, is there?

Satanic Evil Trump not a republican he stole this party like he stole the election you know that he's a convicted felon , he's a child molester with Jeffrey Epstein , the man that love grabbing women by the p---- , cult leader using religious to get these corrupted religious mega follower's to back him up and Putin's little puppet , humiliating and degrading our friend from Ukraine this list goes on with this American Traitor no more talking take our business to Europe . The America Justice system and Politicians represent the people, who make decisions have turn their backs on us and even their own people in the USA push to have Elon Musk Canadian birth right remove from our great country Canada . Elon not worthy to be even call a Canadian . Oh no we can't forget dear old JD Vance who speaks against gay right and he worn little girl clothes in high school and still today wear makeup around his eyes. And the mega Christian followers , call them leaders sent by God they better start reading their holy bible cause it all written in the holy book..

I am from Bengal, India --- now in Canada, and I absolutely love this country as my own-- I stand with Canada-- my country-- cause the values are much more potent -- and because this prime minister has the balls to stand up to a bully-- while others stoop including the #Gujarati fascist, the terrorist organization #RSS mainly from Karnataka and Maharastra ruling India. I am proud to call myself Canadian. Go Team Canada

My problem with the doom and gloom is people love to blame all our problem on the current PM and “wokeness”. I am not saying JT and the Liberals don’t deserve any criticism they do but all the time it’s for all the wrong reasons. Public Housing is a provincial issue, Healthcare is a provincial issue zoning is a municipal issue. However all of these issues are made worse by lack of public housing funding (looking at you Doug Ford) and nimbyism at the municipal level (looking at you Rob Ford and almost every mayor large Canadian cites have had). My parents hate JT now because property prices came down slightly but they loved him during Covid when prices went through the roof. When the liberals implemented the mortgage stress test they hated him and voted conservative in 2019 because Andrew Scheer went on the news and said he will get rid of it. When the liberals got rid of the stress test on first time homebuyers they loved the liberals again. They are property developers so they don’t mind paving over the Agricultural land reserve but god forbid a fourplex is built in our neighborhood. However I am not too cynical I have seen progress by the current government AFTER THEY WHERE -20pts in the polls. Now I just hope the Tories don’t get rid of the Housing accelerator fund and other funds that will make a impact in 10 years.

biggest difference is cultural, America is a country where people take risks and face hardships due to free will, Canada is a British colony and Canadians are still peasants, society is very complacent and obedient. I moved from USA to Canada, I live in Alberta which is a freedom loving province, but even here they bend over to the idea of monarchy and how important to support family of German pedophiles that lives in Windsor castle thousands of miles away.

about two years ago the president of india made a speech were he declared war on canada then of course the hated of canadians began hate only begats hate stop the hate and apreciate individualitys i love indians but hate ignorisum

My experience as a Canadian as we keep personal political, religious, racist beliefs to ourselves. Americans I found tend to bond to people based on these personal beliefs all too much. Love the diverse culture I live within in Canada. Should review the data on shootings in educational institutions in the US , you might be surprised how many days in a year these shootings do occur.

So whats out of control? The color if people's skin or their way of life? Foreigners are family oriented, they are having children. Canadian culture is not big of big families and they don't want to work gard and do the little menial jobs. These people take the small jobs and work their way up and building up the community while at it. Like I said I love my Canadian culture and laws of the land. But it is possible to abuse by human laws that would be safe and fair to all citizens.

So being canadian means being white only ? All the Europeans that split tithe USA and some in canada because of their disagreements, that may be the culture of the first settlers yes. Times have changed an racist people better get use to changes. The whole earth does not belong to any one color. The Jesuse whites clin to love and worship is Jewish , yeah remember that. I l8ve mix cultures, my family is very mixed. It is possible to coexist together in love and respect and unity. Respect all faith but also respect the founding rules of the country. I personally do not agree with somethings cultural habits like child marriage etc or Muslim laws for women etc. Thank God for Canadian laws for all people. It's normal for people to bond together in the community and they all seem to feel more comfortable living ner their own ethic people. I love all people and I'm good living amongst a mixed community!

I am a person that loves nature. I am really hoping that the bear, wolf, and moose populations are healthy enough to help with this issue naturally. Make America AND Canada great again. I am an American who loves to vacation in the Canadian wilderness. I love the people I know in both countries. I think and hope we are turning a corner for good in both countries.

When people asks what it means to be Canadian, I say it means not to come here and impose your religious and cultural traditions on other Canadians who have been here for over 400 years (ya, I know some people will comment on this and say what about what the colonialists did to the indigenous people, and I’ll say ya but we conquered this land - shiity but that’s reality). If you love your culture and religions so much, why didn’t you stay in your native country. Can you imagine going to an eastern country trying to assert your own beliefs and traditions and not not honouring their culture?! Good luck with that. I’m not religious but this country was founded on Christian beliefs. Imagine going to an eastern country and… well you know what I mean.

I tell you what, I have been saying this about the Canadian border for more than 20 years. I used to love to drive to Ontario and it was SO easy through Detroit, Niagara, etc. But the thing NO ONE is talking about is the ability to get a BOAT or using a FERRY to cross the border all the time. It's so easy it's scary. ALSO there is an area of of the New York to Maine border that is mostly forest and with minimal roads/population. Our God only knows what is going on there. I have to say, that when I drove through this area in 2013 as a woman with her dog, I was afraid. I don't scare easily, and I trust my instincts. Something's got to change.

As a Canadian, I'm glad they're getting the F out of Canada. \nCanadians love Trump.

So, my Canadian brothers are getting mad at us for putting Tariffs on em. Yet they've been doing that to us for years. We've given weapons & armor to y'all at a discount. Yet y'all don't even bother to stop criminals from coming here.\nA lof of y'all Canadians are hypocrites. I love ya, but this is shii, bro. ?‍♂️

Canadian here and our failed Prime Minister is a joke. Hopefully we can get someone with a brain soon. We need to start screening and sending ppl back on flights from the get go. We love and support the U.S. and most Canadians don’t support this. Trudeau is an idiot.

CANADA NEEDS TO SMARTIN UP AND GET THEIR BORDER UNDER CONTROL. THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT LOVES THAT THERE IS ZERO BORDER CONTROL. \nOR..\nBE ANNEXED. MOST CANADIANS WOULD LOVE TO BE A US CITIZEN!!

This is all Trudeaus fault. He's the Biden of the North. I say this as a Canadian that loves his country and wants to see it restored.

We Canadian people are not the problem. Its our evil leaders that are the problem. We love you Americans.

Really bad policies that are destroying America. As a Canadian I’m so very sorry to my American friends, family and all patriots, that my alleged gov has allowed & encouraged, both into and out of Canada the most evil & vile ppl on Earth. They belong in neither country and must be permanently expelled & borders locked up tightly c/w only legal crossings at legal border crossings. So sorry America, we love ya’ll.

Im Canadian and while the tariffs are gonna suck, I completely understand why Trump is doing it. Our government is an absolute clown show and what's worse is now the politicians and corporate media here have spun this whole thing as Trumps fault and alot of Canadians are falling for it buying into this whole US vs Canada BS. Like this all coulda been avoided if our politicians would've actually fixed the border YEARS ago, instead of legalizing heroin, making a gender neutral national anthem and making it illegal to misgender someone. \n \nHonestly I'm so embarrassed to be Canadian these days that being the 51st state is pretty appealing. I support gun rights, low taxes, deporting illegals, love proper BBQ and work for a paycheck. So if anyone in a red state is hiring, I'm happy to relocate..

They should just stay in Canada. I guess Canadians would love to have them there.

As an Indian, I’m embarrassed too with their stubborn behaviour + bad English. Most of them were just to get PR, I myself worked my ass off for more than 3years to get PR. But I wanna love here with Canadian values and diversely not with same old ppl and rules. That’s why we move to different country so plz only allow the one respect Canada and it’s culture ??

People move to countries with wild dreams fantasising that everything will be easier and they will be richer. A lot of people just can't adapt to a new country. Some do extremely well. I know a lot of entrepreneurs that have gone to the US and Canada to start businesses and then they move back to their countries in South America or India to live an amazing lifestyle and travel a lot. I suppose it's nice to accumulate wealth faster and know that you have a Canadian passport to fall back on if you need to get out? I'm part first nations. I do not live in Canada for related reasons - but I love my country and what we stand for.

I am not leaving Canadian, no where butter than canada. ?? our home land. I love ? canada more than my heart!!!!

I almost moved to the US with my parents when I was a kid but was crying because I didn’t want to go. I am so glad that we didn’t move there. We don’t want to go there for many reasons, free healthcare, a good education system because we pay our teachers well and have good quality teachers, we don’t carry guns and don’t want them, thereby our streets are safer. We don’t have mass murders, school killings and all that fear. We don’t have the racial and ethnic prejudice that there is in the US. I have travelled a lot for my company and personal to the US. I was scared and didn’t feel comfortable at all. We know so much more about US geography and history and the US knows nothing about us. Complete ignorance. Well I have no plans to ever visit again. I love our people, our freedom and our culture. We are nothing like the Americans (sorry). I am staying in my beautiful country! I feel safe and happy here! We don’t want the American dream, we are living the Canadian dream!

Consequences? I think Canadians are suffering the consequences of failed leadership just as we have here in the US. With the election of Donald Trump it's perfectly clear that the policies have changed here in the US. I wouldn't be too worried about the future of either countries at this stage. I predict by this time next year there we still be lights in my home, gas in my car, food on my table, and love in my heart for my Canadian brothers and sisters to the north. Future looks Bright! :)

I love how the Canadians are like screw America at this point.

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, merci beaucoup! Your address to our proud nation Saturday night helped my family and me feel safer. It's much like during COVID-19 when you were there for Canadians at every step, every turn with initiatives and concrete help. Too bad we cannot procure masks and vaccines to ward off Trump-25. You, your Ministers and Premiers are working so hard trying to reason with a lunatic addicted to power and chaos and inform Americans of the facts. With prorogation, there have been no Poilièvre shenanigans to waste time on and your complete focus has been, as always, on protecting Canadians. For this I thank you again and tell you how much you will be missed in our household. Forgive a personal note: I hope you and Mme Grégoire will find your way back to each other when you can be a family without the heavy burden of this job, a job I know you love. And very personally - I shall miss the handsome, capable, well-spoken man of stature and intellect who also happens to be my Prime Minister. Vraiment!
