We tried to do something about this clown but unfortunately half of this country that voted were idiots and say they didn't know he would do this. I don't recognize this country anymore, I served and fought for our country but I did not fight for what Trump is doing. I could not convince the morons who voted for him the danger this man poses to our democracy and now we are paying the price even all those of us who did not vote for him.

This trade war has nothing to do with fentanyl, Trump is a turncoat aka treasonous person who has been working with Russia all along and is using any and all excuses to cause people to look at anything else but him as he lines the pockets of his billionaire buddies because America gave him that when they said a president can't be charged for anything they do while serving in the White house. Thanks a lot supreme court and to all those that voted for him...... I hope you all get deported and lose all your money for putting us Normal non radicalized Americans through h3!!. It's insane how people are so blined that they know he lies and is a criminal and when hit with hard facts he calls it fake news and they all believe it. My own mother in law is one too. I hate this

Those US citizens who did not vote for tRump and we support Canada. My husband is a retired Airborne Ranger who worked cooperatively with military personnel from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, and other democratic countries around the world. We are just sick about how tRump has treated our allies. He is a bully and a draft dodging coward. We don’t blame any of our NATO allies who apply pressure through tariffs, etc to give tRump the consequences he deserves for his bad behavior. He is hurting the US country and its citizens, being cruel to their people lower income US citizens. Middle and lower class US citizens are going to be suffering under his US as he is trying to get rid of every program that helps us live with dignity. He is hurting our farmers. We know that he is a narcissistic psychopath. Most of us can’t wait until he and JD Vance are out of office, and hopefully in prison. They don’t care how many US citizens they hurt with their greedy megalomaniac agenda. We are sorry that our administration is being so unreasonable and hope you can forgive the rest of the US citizens that never wanted this situation with you and our other NATO allies.

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.

Help us please. Most of us HATE trump as you know. What can we do?? It appears there are some finding foul play with the vote. \nI will hang a Canadian flag and stand with you.

Standing for our beautiful neighbor country Canada. I didn't vote for a dictator and Trump is destroying the American way of life and our relationships with so many allies, and selling us out to the Kremlin.

Nobody ever said, with a straight face, that the orange blob is a smart man. \nThey need to turn off the power they send to the US. They need to order Starlink out of their country. They need to put a 100% tariff on all Tesla products, all products from Kentucky, Tennessee, floridumb, texass, and every other red state. They voted for this, it's what they wanted, so make it hurt hard.

Please remember millions of us did NOT VOTE for the Orange Dicktator! If I had the resources I would be relocating to Canada for good!!

Trudeau is exactly right, tRump has decided to hurt the people of the US, whether you voted for him or not. Canada is exactly right to react as they have, not just tariffs but all the boycotts they have started.\nThank you Canada for all your past support as we hope that we can return to being a good neighbor to you one day soon!

Most Americans didnt vote for TRUMP. Many now regret their votes. Rest of us have to suffer because of this idiot!!!

Americans didn’t vote for trump because he is a good person. Americans voted for trump because he is a bad person. I have close friendships with many trump supporters and they all embrace war for this country. They all support Donald in his greed and obsessive behavior. Americans are generally bad people. Canadians need not have pity on us. We brought this on ourselves

From Indiana, I did not vote for Trump or trade wars and completely regret Trump's incompetent handling of relations with allies Ukraine and Canada.\nI have so much respect for the leadership of Canada and Ukraine. May God help us.

I voted for Trump, but it's hard not to agree with Trudeau on this even though I find this guy to be extremely unpleasant. There's no reason to start trade wars all over the world and in particular with our neighbors. It's one thing to threaten tariffs and a very different thing to actually apply them. If you do it has to be accompanied by a lot of diplomacy so that the other country is not overreacting, but Trump has been super combative prompting our neighbors to respond in kind to save face. While past deals may not have been great for US, this is not the way to handle our differences. Billionaires like Trump and his friends will be fine, but the majority of ordinary folks in the US and Canada will suffer. Very dumb, indeed.

Americans who didn’t vote for Trump are terrified with nobody to help us.

I find it so disturbing that I’m gonna say this if JD Vance little man JD Vance, the guy who called himself he was in the battlefield, but he wasn’t in no battle. He was just in the battlefield cleaning boots and you know making sure his gun work and you know cleaning his helmet, but he never went outside. He never went outside and what kills me. Is people who talk like they real veterans but they did no vet. They did no vet you ain’t no vet you talked about, the guy who is running with Kamala make it seem like he lied but she was in Afghanistan or I mean Iraq or whatever you call yourself you was in a compound. I know that for fact, JD Vance was in a compound awaiting instructions to see if you were able to go out there battle you didn’t go battle you watch the convoy go in and out. You are the same people you watch in mash mash the show when everybody go outside those same people sitting inside just cleaning boots and walking around that’s what he was doing, if this guy think that you guys could do whatever is dumb let everybody know mega is dumb. I don’t care what mega wanna say you put them in front of a scoreboard and you give them testes they going to show you their dumb most mega is dumb. They’re uneducated. That’s a fact There’s no going around it uneducated OK you can see from the terrorist that’s being put in. They’re uneducated because I don’t know who that’s why when people telling you they want to bring back religion you need to bring back economics in school bro economics in school. You need to bring what really matters not not you. Let a guy who duck the army twice with foot with phony letters, I don’t know how that’s not Fraud if I was supposed to go to the army army twice wouldn’t that call for me to be investigated and be charged for fraud on phone phones shouldn’t be charged for that but you guys run around here calling out veterans and fire and veterans and JD Van saying he’s a veteran and watching the veterans go down this is why I say you put them boys back on the battlefield. I guarantee you veterans will probably put them in the back put them in the back. Yeah they probably send them out to clean the mind as you know, they used to do to the black, servicemen back in the days they used to send them off the plane knowing they was gonna die. They used to send them off the plane to clean mines knowing that they’re gonna die. They used to send them off the planes and shot them while they’re getting shot by the opposition, tell me America if I’m lying about that didn’t you do that to the black serviceman you let them jump off the plane you shot at them but those same black servicemen help us win the war it wasn’t just American white blood they died just like everybody else they died and coward faster the black servicemen help us win the war from air and ground Those Jews, the Jews they help us war to so many races that they’re not telling you that helped you win this war World War I and two America is lying to you guys and that’s what’s been the problem for decades. America is lying to the people and they won’t take acceptability But JD Von he’s gonna get the president of United States. I’d rather vote for pence I’d rather vote for the same guy you say you wanted to vote for him for president then JD Vance if we had to put vice president up there and you had a choice out of say the Democrats loss and you had a choice out of JD Vance or pence I had to choose pence, I would choose Cristi. I would choose them near my feet. It doesn’t have a name to go into. I choose my feet. I would choose somebody else’s feet then put a despicable guy like JD vans a couch hump like JD vans AAA I can’t find a white bread American apple pie woman to marry but I had to go out and use my catalog to buy a woman from out-of-state pregnant her and give her a green card JD vans hell fuck fuck noyou will never get my vote even when you die. You won’t get my vote even when they died you won’t get my vote. Good luck, sir.

Poilievre will GIVE Canada to the US. Vote Liberal!

And let me be very clear to all your black minorities Mexicans Indians Haitian whoever voted for these white National Republicans and how Hitler Donald j Trump and let me be very clear to you all yes you sold your souls for the mighty Dollar just like a lot of other black people minorities Mexicans Indians and dark skin people in this country yes you all have messed up terribly you cannot trust these white privileged people here in this country to do best or what's best for us just look at the system look at the Lost systems that justice system the system is only here to protect white supremacist people organization gang members that's all they are KKK klu Klux klan's members in this country and they do run Washington DC they run the high position in this country of jobs and yes they are all in our armed forces military they are everywhereas black people you all minority whoever in military it's time to quit stop fighting the white people's war and dying for these rich white people when they won't go with their own people to save us but we would sacrifice our people 24/7 365 days a year for $500 years we've been losing our loved ones to protect these white privileged people here in this country and they have been stepping on everybody including other allies and other countries

To all who voted Trump you will get why you deserve unfortunately for the rest of us who have integrity and want peace something trump has no desire for he’s becoming Putin’s bitch!

True Americans stand with our President Donald J Trump, the majority of real patriots voted for him. Canadians, Mexicans, Ukraine, it's over, they will not continue taking advantage of American citizens, fix your problems, USA we have our own problems and our leader only cares about us, as it should be.

I live in Los Angels and I did not vote for this. Canada has always helped us when we had natural disaster.

You don’t have to tell us the obvious! Our president is a feeble minded fool and he has been a failure his whole life! The republicans have no backbone Musk said he will put his money up in the next election! We want to see Musk have no money! We want to see X taken off of the airwaves! I’m from a state that voted this idiot in to office and I want you to make the red states pay tremendously that will give us the numbers to stop this criminal regime! May god bless Canada and I will only spend my money with products from Canada that America can’t prosper from! There are many with us on this fight that we must win and we shall friends in Canada! Signed old man from Ohio with a brain and a heart!

I didn’t vote for you JT, I wouldn’t vote for you again, but those of us who are being truly honest are extremely proud of everything you said here, the actions you have taken and the way you have represented Canada throughout this mess.

Millions of us did not vote for that madman. This is absolutely necessary. We will take the pain. We are with you Canada!

When is this idiot going to let ?? vote. Everything he’s saying trump did, he already did to us. He ruined the economy here. If we had a real leader right now, Trump would likely not be doing this. We don’t even have a working government right now ?

Let's be blunt. A madman was propelled into the most powerfull position in the world because swing states tilted the outcome of this rigged election. A madman, an extremely deranged individual that will turn the US into a mirror image of putin's russia. Explain to me why people chose to vote against themselves? Some people chose to allow a madman to drag them into their own destruction, I did not!

I didn’t vote for TRUMP. Thanks for trying to help us.

Just who in the us voted for chump drumpf?

You know we in America don’t need what Canada sells us we can do without your products but we are your biggest consumer and if you do then Canada will suffer and that’s on you make it fair for America . We voted for this and it’s what we want things will go up we know but in the end we will be self contained in America we will be fine we all know we can survive without your goods but you can’t survive without us consuming your goods . Step up or step out pretty simple . How about talk to our president and not to news media talk is cheap work it out with our president he told you what was coming and you had time to make a deal . We in America will be ok but without us Canada will suffer greatly and that’s on you .

As an American I apologize to Canada and all of our friends. I did not vote for Trump. Many of us do not want him either. Donald Trump is a liar and mentally insane. We the people of the usa should sue our government for mental and emotional abuse. I side with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine.

As an American, i am so sorry about this mess. U guys do not deserve tariffs. U have always been generious, kind, hard working, and polite. I did not vote for trump, along with many others, i knew trump with his huge ego, he would ruin everything he touches. It's gonna get a lot worse before it gets better. We should b working together, not fighting and being selfish. I hang my head low today and pray for all of us. So sorry

You go Canada! American vet here. Don’t take any sh*t from this idiot! And remember, half of the US did not vote for him.

God save US citizen voting president

I'm a US citizen I did not vote for Trump I vote for anybody but Trump. The Canadian leader that is a real leader someone who cares about his people and his neighbors.. I mean why are we picking a fight with Canada?

We voted to be more independent from other countries. We voted to make America a producer again. \nIf Canada and everyone else wants to be butt hurt about it then so be it. It also makes sense to alight yourself with the country that could take out all of the other countries. Putin won’t live forever either. This is about the long game. America first! \nWe don’t need yall and yall don’t need us so you shouldn’t care and flip out over tariffs lmao

We have half of the American people to thank for this, as they voted for this bafoon back into the White House!!! I’m sorry Canada that you’re having to deal with this…a lot of us Americans don’t deserve this either, but apparently this is what the majority of Americans want. I’ve never been so ashamed of my own country before. Today, this year, this era is a sad time for American’s history.

If us Canadians still vote this party you all are sheep and dump. This doesn’t change anything on how he destroyed our country. Wake up people. And if you don’t remember, freedom of speech, was taken away freedom to assemble, was taken away the charter rights or trampled on, and you were forced to take the poke plus carbon tax through the roof. This guy isn’t for the people of Canada. Fact is you should’ve been gone long time ago.

Who the hell do you think you are pay your portion secure your borders and shut up we as Americans don’t need an outsider warning us of what our president chose to do. We voted him in office based on his ideas and what he had set in play. This is the Democrats Democrats are communicating with you people this is bullshit move on or pay up.

As a Canadian who won’t be voting Liberal mostly because of Trudeau , this is one of his best speeches and I’m glad he’s standing up for us!

Awesome!! GO CANADA!! How you Americans voted for this convicted felon is mind boggling!! This is who you want to represent you on the world stage.You've PISSED us off!! No more American goods, no more American vacations,?

Canada ?? ?? American minority ? Patriots who VOTED for Democracy and Kamala Harris ?? say ??Trumps?? 79million voter's don't speak for the other 200 million of us.\nWe and the world ? don't need him.? He's a fraudulent business practice con-artist.

Donald will not listen, nor will the poorly educated who voted for him, but everybody bar the rich will be adversely affected by his stupidity and cons....and economies around the World will be harmed especially in the US.

the man, americans love so highly that they voted for him not once - but twich - as their commander in cheif and president - is a man with a shovel digging the hole deeper and deeper, to the point where he cannot get out. As a Dane I support Canada all the way, and belive Us is lost.'\n\nAll my respect and sympathy for the way Canada's politicians handle this situation.

Thank you to all the idiots who voted for Trump and put us and the world into this clusterf***.

Thank you Trump you f us again I'm glad I did not vote for him. ?

American from California who did NOT vote for this. Many of us stand with Canada and Mexico. We apologize that we have so many idiots and this disgusting criminal was voted in. Hopefully, he disappears soon, but if it's in 4 years... Hopefully, we can rebuild alliances and friendships. We're sorry. The USA is shit right now.

Trudeau you ordered martial law against peaceful Canadians and you took truck drivers licenses away for life and find them $100,000 and threw them in jail for those that were part of the freedom convoy do not talk about every Canadian. You should keep your mouth. Can we vote to be part of the US 51 state, because after being beat up by my Canadian government the US isn't looking that bad at all.

As a Retired US Marine, I am in aww, if you are US Military and voted for Trump… as your leader… who has no leadership traits … than you are a traitor and have failed to uphold your oath to the constitution..not to a king or wanna be dictator.. HONOR COURAGE COMMITMENT … SF 1775 ???

From the States, I absolutely voted against all of this. Its so tiresome and will take us decades to recover from his first term, who even knows about this one...We need a way to hold an emergency vote of no confidence.

As an American who has pride for our military and Canadian heritage, I stand behind PM Trudeau’s decision. He’s just playing defense. Like he said, the US and Canada are not just border allies, they have been our greatest friend. \nIf you are Canadian, please know not all of us voted for this clown who is ruining our country. From North Carolina

As a disabled US Veteran I did NOT vote for this administration. I do not want these tarrifs. And I feel sad for our country. This is not what our country stands for. This isn't our agenda. I feel ashamed and embarrassed by the country's actions in the last month. I'm sorry Canada and Mexico. There are other ways to deal with these issues and tarrifs are not it. People are only now realizing the HUGE mistake they made.
