Americans don’t want any kind of war with our Allies! I’m in Washington state, and we love Canada ?? I’m so so sorry that the orange stain has done this to you and ourselves. ?????wow, what you did at your border is amazing! Our current leaders, in control,have no honor!?????

soooo they can impose huge tariffs on us for years and its ok.... but as soon as we match those tariffs its terrible? Are you so used to be screwed by other countries that you don't know what its like to take control anymore? Are you so used to being taken advantage of that its just normal now?

Why does England, keep wanting to colonize the u.s, after making Joe Biden president and actually controlling the country try for some time? They lose, now want to use their pawns to use force, take control and then using their real name, say it wasn’t them?

It's a pure disgrace to see what Trump's tariffs are doing to healthy relations with Canada and Mexico.\n\nWatching that deplorable play between Trump, Vance, and Zelensky was extremely disappointing and bankrupt of too much to get into here. \n\nMany were hopeful that a more conservative administration would put a stop to the considerable wokeness and far left agenda, however it's clear the Trump administration is about personal gain, control, and more elite power. What Trump's doing is NOT about survival/progress/peace, but absolute Hegemony! ❤??

so Russia controls America. This is the reality we live in.

When does Trudeau leave office? Canadians don't want him. Trump expects more effort at controlling immigration at the Canadian border which Trudeau has not done. He is the reason there is tariffs on Canada today!

Why it took trump to get in the sit to do right , he been doing us wrong letting drugs on our border and etc and now since January you claiming since we upped on border control we suppose to forget the pass

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.

This tariff measure is probably being strategically used to destroy and weaken the economy of the countries affected. Subsequently, when a nation's economy falls, its governmental functions and national security also crumble.\n\nAnd then the oligarchs would eventually take advantage of this situation and may control their country either or both economically or politically.

America was taken over in 2025 without a single shot being fired. For several weeks now, the destruction has started from within. All controllers have been fired and state security agencies have been thinned out or closed. The army has been purged and Russia is now the best friend. The Minister of Agriculture advises citizens to keep chickens in their gardens. The government is openly lying to citizens. If this were a Hollywood movie, it would win an Oscar, but it is unfortunately the reality.

Most Americans despise what Europe has turned into….a woke, globalist cesspool controlled by people like Soros and institutions like the WHO, WEF, ICC, and NATO. Their ultimate goal is for people to have zero national identity and to not be able to live without a welfare state. \n\nSome Canadian was crying online about tariffs saying good luck on your own against China. Buddy, you and Europe are socialist systems that can’t survive if not subsidized by the American taxpayers. Yeah it might sting us initially, but your whole system is going to be exposed and now you’re throwing a tantrum. It’s pathetic! Have fun owning the reconstruction of Ukraine and providing security guarantees. You guys can kick and scream all you want, Americans murdered Neo-Conservatism this election and it’s never coming back.

It's too bad that Trudeau's Government did so little about fentanyl, also about our poorly-controlled border and destructive immigration non-policies for so long. Hence, driving Trump's scorched-earth policy (The Tariffs). That said, it blows me away that Trump was so vociferous about the Lawfare that was lined up against him in 2023-24, but he doesn't see that excess use of the power of the State is wrong and immoral in this Canadian and Mexican case. Trump only knows the right of might. Threats, coercion, bullying. He doesn't otherwise distinguish between right and wrong; only about what is good for him and his ego. The Tariffs will drive very bad business outcomes in the US. Including, inflation, and lost jobs. The Stock Markets are already tanking. At this particular stage, his ego will not allow him to back off, that's my prediction. Much pain for all Americans (and obviously for Canadians) will first have to ensue. Canada must receive its spanking, and Donald will have to save face. Ultimately, he'll invent some dishonest pretense to put the genie in the bottle, while the economic damage to all sides will be severe. But ... Why would he care?

Trudeau a dictator himself himself sit down we fired that shameless embarrassment two months ago he screwed us by allowing unlimited economic migrants millions into Canada illegally many who illegally crossed into the US illegally they did little for years to stem the flow of hard drugs organized crime out of control clandestine drug labs all over Canada now hundreds of thousands of Canadians dead from overdose he screwed us now Trump is screwing us we are really screwed with this clown show at the helm still we should have had an election a year ago so a competent government was installed working instead the Liberal red green show is in charge

This is pandering. This guy is a puppet for people in control.

What nonsense ?? Guess who owns the Royal Canadian bank ? Morgan Stanley and Vanguard. Guess who they are ? The same Zionist cartel that control the Fed. Guess who suffers ? The Citizens, guess who gets richer ? The Joo World Order.

This guy does not speak for all Canadians here in Canada. He had every opportunity every opportunity to make things better with Donald Trump. They hate Donald Trump so now they use the media to attack Trump and make him look bad Justin Trudeau you’ve done nothing for Canada for the last 10 years, but put us in debt put us in financial problems put us in Criminal problems. We have rapist here that we brought to Canada terrorist that live in Canada. We are laughing country because of what you’ve done so don’t sit there and make yourself look great and brave and think that Canada’s behind you you better think again you’ve destroyed Canada now you wanna be a big man up there and podium and talk how you’re talking that you think you know Canadians and Canadians are speaking out well that’s a lie if you truly mean what you mean get rid of the carbon tax in Canada let’s start lowering gas prices in groceries. Has nothing to do with them. American people let’s start growing our own stuff in Canada that that been discussing many times and that you’ve just throw it out the window bring back our pipeline. How about that to increase cost and money in Canada again you won’t do that. We’ll have a fight with Donald Trump now I’ll tell you you won’t win. God is in control. Evil has no authority anymore and there’s nothing that these evil leads can do they’re swamp is being drained as we speak.

Get your border under control.

I see all these other comments saying how polite and eloquent he is compared to Trump, but you can seem polite and screw people over at the same time. I'm just confused on the admiration for Trudeau in the comments, because I haven't heard anything good about him or what he's got going on. Idk, just take the tariff hit and keep moving if Canada's got everything under control. \n\nI'm open to both sides if anyone has any input. What makes the tariffs so bad, doesn't Canada have tariffs on the US?

As a US citizen I fully support what Trump is doing. \n\nOh and these tariffs will hurt Canada far more than they will hurt America and we know that.\n\nCanadians better start controlling their border soon.

why does the new President of America need Canada, Mexico and China to control what crosses the borders into America, it appears the USCBP can not do the job, instead of giving a $4.5 trillion tax breaks to the rich, they should be hiring more agents at the border, after all it is Americas' border,

America = Dumb. Good luck living in isolation and high prices and letting billionairs gut peoples jobs and control media. You never were great other than ww2. Anything great about america if you scratch the surface you will find a Canadian behind it. Maga morons. Wake up, Captain Orange sucks at everything and russia is now your allie. You SUCK

RESPONSE TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROPAGANDA AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP\n\nTo the American People, Mainstream Media, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk\n\nThe mainstream media is once again spinning lies and manipulating reality to push their globalist agenda.\n\n? THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT TRUMP IS CREATING A WAR WITH CANADA AND MEXICO.\n? THE TRUTH? TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE COLLAPSE THEY HAVE PLANNED.\n\nCNN and other media outlets are pushing a false narrative about President Trump imposing tariffs on Canada and Mexico as an “attack” or “act of economic war.” This is not about war. This is about taking America back from the deep state elites who have been destroying our economy and flooding our country with illegal immigration.\n\n1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.\n\n2. TRUDEAU IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE GLOBAL ELITES\n\nCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not defending Canada—he is defending the deep state agenda.\n\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau more upset about Trump’s tariffs than he is about China’s infiltration of Canada?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau defending globalist trade deals instead of fighting to keep Canada’s economy strong?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau suddenly trying to turn Americans against Trump right as NATO and the EU are pushing for war?\n\nBECAUSE THIS IS A COORDINATED ATTACK.\n\n? Trudeau is panicking because Trump is taking away their power.\n? Trudeau is working with the globalists to weaken America.\n? Trudeau knows his country depends on the U.S., and if America stops playing their game, Canada collapses too.\n\nThis is why he is attacking Trump, calling him “dumb” on CNN, and trying to manipulate the American people into turning against their own president.\n\n3. TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE IMMIGRATION INVASION\n\n? FACT: Canada and Mexico have been working alongside the deep state to flood America with illegal immigrants.\n? FACT: The goal was to change U.S. demographics, destroy the economy, and create a permanent voting base for globalist-controlled politicians.\n? FACT: This was NEVER about helping migrants—this was about replacing the American people with a population that could be controlled.\n\n? Why do you think Biden opened the borders?\n? Why do you think millions of illegal immigrants are being shipped across the U.S. at taxpayer expense?\n? Why do you think every major city is being overrun with migrants while American citizens are struggling?\n\nThis is planned destruction—and Trump is stopping it.\n\n? Trump and JD Vance will shut down illegal immigration completely.\n? Trump will reimplement strict border security, build more of the wall, and stop the deep state from using mass migration as a weapon.\n? The globalists are afraid because if Trump stops their immigration plan, they lose their ability to control future elections and destroy American sovereignty.\n\n4. THE MEDIA IS LYING TO YOU—AGAIN\n\n? The same mainstream media that lied about Russian collusion is now pushing the lie that Trump is starting a war with Canada and Mexico.\n? The same mainstream media that censored the truth about Biden’s corruption is now protecting Trudeau and the deep state’s plan.\n? The same mainstream media that attacked Trump for four years straight is now attacking him again because they know he is winning.\n\nTHIS IS A DISTRACTION.\n\nThey want you to focus on fake outrage about tariffs while ignoring the real crisis:\n\n? AMERICA IS BEING INVADED FROM WITHIN.\n? THE DEEP STATE WANTS TO COLLAPSE THE U.S. THROUGH MASS MIGRATION.\n? THE GLOBALISTS NEED TRUMP GONE BECAUSE HE IS STOPPING THEIR PLAN.\n\n5. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE AWAKE—WE WILL NOT FALL FOR THIS\n\nTo CNN and the mainstream media: We know you are lying. You have lost control of the narrative, and the American people see through your propaganda.\n\nTo Justin Trudeau: You are a puppet, and your attempts to manipulate Americans will fail.\n\nTo President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance: The American people stand with you. We know you are fighting for our country, and we will not be fooled by the lies of the globalist elite.\n\nTo Elon Musk: Keep exposing the truth. The deep state is afraid because they can no longer censor real information.\n\nTo every American reading this: Share this message before they try to silence it.\n\nTHIS IS NOT ABOUT TRADE. THIS IS ABOUT THE FUTURE OF AMERICA.\nTHE DEEP STATE IS PANICKING—AND THAT MEANS WE ARE WINNING.\n\n? AMERICA FIRST. 1776 WILL NOT BE ERASED. ?\n\nThis response is clear, powerful, and directly dismantles the mainstream media’s lies. I encourage you to copy and paste this as one unified message for YouTube, social media, or emails.

man, just living to survive is hard enough for many people even for min wage earners and now this. The point? I think its ego from trump. Dont get me wrong I actually support some of trump policies but this is spiraling out of control. Ukraine, Allies turned enemies wtf.

Get control of the border and take your tariffs off and Trump will do the same. Your funding your social programs at the expense of us taxpayers with your tariffs you’ve had on for years

I'm a ALL American conservative and can say with confidence that Trump is out of control.

From France: we refuse to live in a world of brute, without rules of respect of the other cultures. Canadians is a mervelous country who can living with differents community, and tolerance. they understood the significant of the first originals tribues , and include them with a big resoect. At the time where we must to be careful to the health of our environement, we go to take the management of war! Who want to live in a world in war, with machines and AI, controled by a brutal minority of brutes? For the peace and the good life beetwen humans, we must to fight the lies and the corruption. For the souverainity of Canada: fight for the peace.

JT get your sht together. Drug lords. Gangs. Money cleaning. Corruption.lying . 1:34 cheating. stealing. You caused this. Stop globe trotting on our dime. Mary Ng and 200 entourage trip to Asia? Wtf? Why r u speaking. U resigned like the coward u r. Tough guy.. NOT!! Clean up the fentanal. You have done nothing. U r a liar. Facts = fiction. 1 per cent is the biggest lie in history. Border plan is not going where the sht is coming in. Sea cans not inspected. Sht comin in by the ton. No control. Give it up.

How do you control drug flowing through America????\nIt’s like trying to kill all mosquito impossible America is going to fall

Justin is a Joke. Market is down because there is no out of control money printing which was artificially driving the markets up.\n It was not due to US' productivity.

And Canadians have also continuously ripped off Americans through trade. Find your new customers and control your border !

5. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE AWAKE—WE WILL NOT FALL FOR THIS\n\nTo CNN and the mainstream media: We know you are lying. You have lost control of the narrative, and the American people see through your propaganda.\n\nTo Justin Trudeau: You are a puppet, and your attempts to manipulate Americans will fail.\n\nTo President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance: The American people stand with you.

Such a soy boy move. Grandstand in front of cameras appeasing the people and their voters that have ZERO control in the US. Svck it Canada.

anyone that doesnt think shit gets worse before it gets better is delusional. weve kicked the can down the road for decades and now were at a breaking point. Tarrifs are mad toi bring companies back to america making our country more self sufficient and not so reliant on everyone else which will strenghten us. TSMC has already made a deal to start manufacturing chips here which control everything we know and china could stop that at any moment. Honda is coming here as well. All in all almost one trillion has been committed to invest in the us and this is a huge win for the long run. Alot of these countries have had tarriffs on us for ages and the people speaking out against it is because its hurting their pockets. The long run this is mandatory and we should have never let manufacturing go in the first place.

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?

American Senate should control America before Trump will pull it down ???

How about you get your drug problem under control instead of retaliation.

I, as an American, do not agree or want this. Our government is out of control!

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.

Why trudeau just not simply control your fentanyl and avoid the tariff?

For Trumps agenda, people don't matter. Allies don't matter. He wants to weaken Canada, Mexico, Europe, so oligarchs can gain global control and divide up the spoils. People need to see the big picture through trumps and putin's eyes. Putin must be drooling at this point.

Dear trump supporter,\nFor 10 years we tried to warn you, we tried to make you see the truth that trump was neither your savior or your friend, \nbut sadly you let emotions and narcissism control you and did not listen, \nyou voted for him anyway because you are all terrified of admitting you were wrong.\nNow the whole world is telling you the same thing, will you listen, finally?\nSincerely,\nThe World

There is something more sinister at play here. There is no way the US can justify these tariffs based on border controls. Surely his strategy has another motive. Are they just trying to crash the markets?? Has Putin asked him to do this?

Power, and control. Thats it!

This Drake and Kendrick beef is way out of control

Lets see Trump talk like this to his people....It's hard to deal with someone who is constantly changing the goal-posts on the fentanyl crisis (whatever that is...)to other petty things. Trump is a very dumb person, who really is not in control of his administration. Musk is the real guy running the show going by what he's been doing. As a Canadian, Americans have always been looked at as my friends who I would have no problem standing beside if things went real bad. your Mussolini dictator is not doing anything good for your country, he is trashing it before your eyes.\nSo long comrades, enjoy the free vodka provided by Russia.

This is what dictator's do when they are planning on taking control of their country. Im waiting on Congress and courts to stop this madness

The sense I make of it is that it sure looks like trump and putin plan on carving up our world BY STARTING WORLD WAR 3. Lots of war money to be made and Putin gets Europe, trump gets North America and China can have Taiwan for starters. That’s why trump talks about Canada and Mexico being part of the US…THAT’S THE PLAN. And Elon gets to steal all our data to feed to AI for total surveillance and control. This is a corporate takeover of our world and we cannot let it happen.

Shame on Republicans who stay numb while Trump is out of control. They know that Trump is fundamentally wrong.
