I’m guessing because Trump has never had any real friends in his entire life..he won’t all Americans to have any either…? the upcoming Christmas is going to be a sad one for a lot of people. America needs a champion..and soon ??

I think people need to understand that if you look at it from a business standpoint the US constantly gets fucked in every trade and as much as most americans want to be friendly with most countries they cant when you are forced to help other people outside your country before you can help yourself

Harsh! PM Trudeau called his name: Donald is very polite that donalddeserves be called convictedfelon trump.\nNah! I do not see any harsh words from PM Trudeau and convicted felon trump shouls apology PM Traudeau as felon trump him is governor.\nThis president felon misled his country nowhere but backward ,\nWhat is he doing for better! Nah! for richer? Nah! For American greater by those tariffs to closest ally? Nah! But American intelligent communities need to find out what trump truly is.

The Smart Americans are with you Canada and all Allies. trump & musk are a CANCERS that needs to be removed immediately , ****. Help US! ****

American here and wish our president was as sensible as Trudeau, problem is Trump is too stupid and Elon is too rich and controlling the U.S. which makes running this country a total disaster!!!\n\nImpeachment is not a suggestion it’s needed and needed NOW!!!! Republicans in elected positions step up and quit letting this country get dragged down.

I’ve commented another feeds, but good for you, Trudeau! As an American, I can’t express to you how disgusted I am with what’s happening. I voted against our current administration and I’m out in the streets to try to stop what’s happening. This is disgusting, good for you for fighting back! We’re going to feel a tear in the state, but our leaders need to understand that there are going to be consequenceswhen it comes to treating people like less than human.

Kentucky here. Good riddance Canada. Exactly what we voted for. You need us more than we need you. You take of advantage of America and expect us to just sit and take it. Guess what we don’t play that game no more. So kiss our American butts and get over it. Trump 4-Ever. MAGA till we die.

Inflation is to the roof, Make food and housing affordable, please people just help impeach him, he is golfing while the american people are struggling everyday.... He is just trying to pass stupid laws that keep getting blocked by courts, Come on Trump supporters try helping fix it by calling your local office and impeach him, I bet anyone else is better than Trump, we know the country needs changes but we are still the biggest economy of the world the richest country, Why do we have to feel like is normal not to have affordable food and housing?? The basics of life... All the immigrants are gone, They even left by their own will, and Some Americans left to other countries, Mexico, Europe, Asia..... What do you guys want?? Having an empty country once was the biggest economy of the world?? Is just crazy even a blind person can see he is destroying the whole country..... He is not even a good business person we all know he didn't payed taxes, he went bankrupt so many times he knows how to scam people, Saying the USA government doesn't work because he feels like it, Just travel people so you can see the difference between usa government and other governments around the world........

This is what a leader looks like. Take some advice from an american. Don't place your government in the hands of the inexperienced or the unfit, especially during wartime. It 47 wants to annex you as the 51st state. Your personal space is being encroached upon. Its not about fentanyl nor the border. It's about domination and submission. You need a wartime leader. Not the inexperienced banker, etc...etc. You haven't much time to rewind and reset. Don't do what the idiots and the idiocracy did here.

Deleted anything related to the US. Everything. Will never buy anything American, nor will i go to the US anymore. You elected a tyrant. A tyrant aligned with everything filthy on this planet. You needed to stand up to that bully at the last election but you ignored every red light just for the improbable « chance » to save a few bucks!? Shame on you all. Now deal with the consequences.

I hope and pray that the US military that took their solemn oath to protect the people of the United States and our constitution both foreign and abroad will stand by their oath now as American needs you very very much to protect us from the dictator in the White House so please stand on your oath

Look at all those pompous siuts mad because the money tree is withering . They are losing profit in outsourced contracts. All to keep thier nation under the heel of another nation that does all the industrial work for them.\n\nThis is an opportunity for American and any other nations to stop being handcuffed to outsourced industry. Do the hard blood sweat and tears, work that needs to be done to gain independence from Chinese industrial domination ( that the west itself birthed)

I'm American...and I wish canada would put a 500% tariff on America..yes we would suffer but somebody needs to stand up to the bullies...lol the American govt doesn't care about fentanyl ..

I believe that the different Canadian parties need to get together to form a National Government to show the Americans that Canada is united.

American people need to wake up ??

What a shameful time to be an American. Trump and his minions need to be taken to an island far away.

Trump needs to be impeached and removed from office along with the rest of his cabinet for actions detrimental to the well being of the American public

Americans don't want this either. We need to work on stopping the minority that is enabling it.

We have been asking for years. Take a good look at the city’s and the numbers of family’s kids and adults have died yearly from this.100,000s have died a year. Lives and family’s have been destroyed and the crime that has come with it. We have been asking for years now they claim they are helping. We need to depend on Americans and America more this can be good for us more Americans buying and selling to Americans. All these countries have gotten the better deal with us for years. Now we want the better deal.Our tax dollars have gone to all these other countries now we say no more and everyone is anti American.

Canada will be fine! It's the Americans that will be tariffed by many countries by the time the lunatic is done. He will burn that country to the ground. We'll see who's still standing! I'm not all that worried because besides food, which we've easily replaced what do we get from the US? Nothing we can't get elsewhere. However, the US needs our resources. The lunatic is going to speak to Canadian's later today. Someone tell him we won't be listening!

?As a USA citizen, I'm ashamed.\nI stand with this message. \nI am part of those who will suffer a homebound SSI disabled poor American. I worked all my life since I was 14 years old. Most times, 2 jobs at a time, for nothing.\n? Godspeed to us all. We need it.

As an American I say do what you need Canada, F Trump.

Good job all of you Countries need to stand up for yourselves because we Americans don’t agree with this either and we stand behind you all because being a bully is never a good things and Trump and Vance is putting all Americans at risk with the moves they are playing trying to run the World.Well you know what in all reality Trump and Vance does not care about the American people only the Billionaires he is beside including Elon.So Zelensky get with Canada and other European countries and hold your own against Russia.Putin is evil and Trump is his friend period and will back Russia before he does NATO

Wait a second, just a few weeks ago CNN was saying that Canada had outfoxed the US/Trump and they were not doing anything more than what they had decided to do well before Trump's election when it comes to stopping illegal immigration and the transport of fentanyl into the US? Now they are trying to convince us that Canada is very understanding and accommodating of US needs and is doing a lot!!!! Fake News Network! True Americans should stand with United States of America and not Canada. LOL

Be careful the USA has a KKK government, stand up is about Ideology, this is a Radical ultra Rigth KKK, Zions government, but we need to stand up and stick together, we the American people will remove this Radicals out of the government,

The dummies in this country need to feel it, before they will believe it. So this will be a tough lesson for us americans.

Haaaa haaaaa ???? bring it Canada. Let’s see how this works out. I’m an American, I stand for America. We don’t need Canada or Ukraine ???????\n\nMAGA!!!!!!!

The Americans blame the rest of the world for their own mismanagement. The US can't survive alone against the rest of the world. Even the US needs allies. They will figure it out soon. Greetings from Germany.

While I acknowledge that the way Trump and Vance addressed Zelensky could have been more diplomatic, as an American , I cannot justify allocating $360 billion of our tax funds towards resolving another counties war—especially when only half of that amount has been accounted for, and the other half remains untracked. Let that point sink in! The US is currently in $33 Trillion dolars in debt yet giving away money like candy . No other country is contributing money like we are . We simply do not have the resources to continue doing that . Our financial situation is worsening as we print more money to allocate toward other countries. Furthermore, 7% of the $33 trillion of the US debt is owed by other countries , including China . Our funds need to be utilized for our own benefit before being given away. We have veterans on the streets, the elderly suffering because SS isn't covering their basic needs , school system thatvis failing , health insurance unaffordable by most. We need to fix our own issues. We need to feed our own kids before we feed the neighbors, not the other way around.

Guys don't trust this clown Trudeau, he himself is a big dictator style person . He allowed all criminals , terrorists, drug cartels to grow exponentially in beautiful country Canada by just turning blind eye . All Americans asked is to stop those criminals but this clown is not willing to . \nCanada needs immediate elections

We Americans don't want this either. Trump needs to be stopped.

When I was growing up in Canada, hearing of someone being a “Proud American” was something I admired. Today it’s a punch line to a joke about the American education system. They have nothing left to be proud of, and I’m so thankful to be from this country instead. Trump administration or not, the American people can not be trusted to vote in their own self interest, let alone the interests of the allies that stood with them for the last century and who have lost lives sending men and women over seas to answer the American call for friendship, justice, and loyalty. America wants to stand alone so let them. The global order is shifting, and Canada needs to plan accordingly. Don’t listen to what people say, watch what they do, and Americans have done enough.

Canadians love Americans, there is family on both sides. Why is Trump being COUNTER PRODUCTIVE ?\nthis is negotiating ? what is the deal ? SPELL IT OUT \ndon't try and fool yourself or anyone with verbal crap > show me the numbers on paper, give references from reputable sources in USA. We like and need clarity. Details. Transparency.\npeople on both sides of the equation are intelligent and need the REAL DEAL > not bull.\nIt smells like Trump has not spelled it out. Is it a flip or a flop day ?

This American stands with Canada. \nHit em back, Trudeau. He is not our king. He needs to go. Show the American people that voted for this Dictator that they made a huge mistake (again). ?

Lord I am so sorry you felt the need to stroke djt's ego by claiming he's smart . He is not. He is evil and once he gets what he wants from an individual, organization or country, you are expendable. Maybe st decent Americans do not want this or want to see our Northern neighbors suffer. We are in this together and we will resist this together. Canada strong!????????✌️

Trump , vance and Musk , are not very smart , \nby open trade wars , only the people get hurt on both sides , \nand if USA go after europ then usa will loose even more , \nUsa need us as much as we need them , and Trump \nshould start thinking , becosue americans are loosing power as well \nmust of in europe dont see USA as western leadership anymore , \nthat eneded when people of USA was stupid enough to vote for trump and \nvance , we warned USA people this would happent and still they voted trump \nand now you want us to stand with you ,,,, honestly we have a saying that goes like this \nyou gonna lay in the bed you made , and if you complain about you better redue you bed ! \nSo RNC votes , do you feel the pain the trump a, vance and musk are doing to you , \nif you do then time to remove the idiots from power ! \nand btw , you should rename RNC to RNCC ( Real Northamerica Criminal Consortium)

This is what leadership looks like. American’s needs to stand up for America. It’s time. If you truly are the land of the free it’s time to be brave.

You don't need to speak to us Americans directly. Our President already told your ass what's what. Now either pay up or let's get busy.

Trump is talking out of his ass. We are responsible for less than 1% of fentanyl. We pay more money to states than states pays to us. We helped with 911, their wars and their California fires. We invested Canadian money, & time & lost Canadian lives. When is USA paying us back ???? . \n\nTrump has sold USA to Russia. He is their puppet. \n\nThese tariffs will tank USA economy. \n\nCanada will be hit, but we will survive and thrive. \n\nTrump has united Canada. We will buy Canadian, support Canadians and create more Canadian jobs. We need to keep boycotting anything American. We need to raise prices to all products going to USA on top of tariffs & consider not selling some products. We need to make relationships with other countries who support Canada. We have pressure minerals, and oils. Let them figure out how to get them when Canada steps back.

It's time we as Americans. Stand up and fight. The status quo is no longer. Why didn't Canada or Mexico do this, before the problem? Because you didn't have to. Now you have to. As America we need to bring our country back. Stronger and better. And stop relying on foreign goods. You trudo need to correct your handling of your own fellow Canadians.

We love Americans, don't ever forget that. Prime Minister Trudeau made a superb speech. Unbelievable what is happening. We all need to hang in there and go on this crazy fiasco together. so sad.

This is how a leader should speak. He speaks with sincerity and with clarity. He doesnt speak broadly just to an entire audience. He speaks to each group of people that this is concerning to, and making sure we understand the magnitude of this situation. He adjusts how he speak to each group, and also to our sad president. Thats the vibe of the message he was giving me. Many different types of languages and emotions are spoken at the same time.\n\nI love our country, but I do not agree with how our currents presidents policies, changes, and tear down of our government/agencies in just 2 months. I cant imagine the months to come. People are already struggling, and are divided so much more that Americans are not siding with each other, but siding with Canada and Mexico who have been so patient and understanding with us. We need to stand up against our president to stop this isolation and division. We are already divided in our country. I can't stand to see we are starting to be divided globally. This will litterally shrink our economy and our opportunities. Not only that, it puts our national security in peril. We need to do better to work together in harmony.

Donald Trump claims to be a Christian but what he is doing to other countries and his own country by firing people from government jobs is totally against God God gives life he don't take it and he would never have sent people to the streets just because some politicians created a job for the people this is going to cause people to lose their homes vehicles and their livelihood it is totally evil. And then placing these tariffs on other countries is no less than say I want your country he wants Canada he wants Panama, he wants Ukraine's lithium. And he wants to take it all and he is wrong in that because he is affecting people's lives and God Almighty will not put up with Donald Trump giving into the spoiled brat Elon Musk and his dictatorship attitude. Both Elan and Trump have no heart for the poor or the hardship they have placed on these people but God Almighty has a heart for the people who have lost their jobs and their livelihood because of Donald Trump and Elon Musk. In the book of Isaiah God said to the people that were coming against Israel, you have pissed on a wall. And everybody knows that when you piss on a wall it's going to come back on you and that's exactly what's happened. They didn't do it to the people that lost their jobs they did it to God Almighty who loves all people and wants them to have their wages. Maybe Elon Musk knows everything about technology and space craft, but the man ain't got a lick a common sense he has exactly zero wisdom when making decisions. But his greatest lack as he has no heart for the people who are going to be disrupted by losing their jobs he doesn't feel a thing he has no heart he needs to read the Bible because that's where your heart gets developed and you know right from wrong. And you know what God approves of and what he doesn't, and I'm telling you right now God Almighty does not approve of what Donald Trump and Elon Musk are doing. I voted for him, and now I am ashamed that I voted for him because he never mentioned he was going to do all this horrible horror to the very American people that voted for him. Now I pray for God's divine intervention because what he's doing to the American people and to other countries is not right

As an American, I support Canada 100%. There’s no rationale for these tariffs—only Trump’s ego. Call his bluff. Make it hurt. We need all the help we can get to dislodge Trump from power.

ONLY BUY WHAT YOU NEED. IF EVERYTHING COMES DOWN ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO BUY LESS AS POSSIBLE AND ALL AMERICANS NEED TO BOYCOTT THEIR JOBS ALL JOBS

This is total Anti US propoganda ! This man is about as sinister as they come, and in bed with billionaire led WEF ! He clearly displayed that in his lock step response to covid and how he treated his citizens ( like caged animals)! This leader is a socialist and has nothing to offer Americans but to leech our tax dollars & use our military defenses for protection without contributing their fare share to support it! We have been the sugar daddy to so many nations with only the consequence of our tax dollars not improving our nation, but every other that we are used by! I’m not a maga but, but this president is using leverage the US still has ( although we’ve suffered greatly under the Biden Admin ). President Trump is trying to balance our budget by smart and fair trade, that puts this country’s legal citizens first! Fair trade hasn’t existed for many years, and while there may be increases felt by these tarrifs, our hope is that long term we manufacture more excellent goods here & use more of our own natural resources! Those commenting about what we are doing to Ukraine need to get their heads out if the sand…the Ukrainian people don’t want Zelinski but cannot get rid of him! He has taken hundreds of billions of dollars from the US and has no plan for peace in his nation…Pres Trump says enough is enough, and he is trying to not only end the war, but recoup massive amounts of money we wrongly gave through a deal for natural resources. Sounds like a plan that’s good for everyone involved, and that’s how you make deals! We cannot give whst we do not have & with our debt , we cannot afford to keep printing money, devaluing the dollar, and giving it away at the expense of hard working N Americans!

Canadian leaders, please do not let Zelenskyy sign a mineral deal with the US. trump is setting Ukraine up to fail and take advantage of the Ukrainian people, like he lied to Americans. The world needs to now fight Russia and the White House. I stand with Canada and Mexico even though it is going to hurt my pocketbook...

Do Americans not see Trump as a threat that needs to be dealt with? He has gone completely insane.

WE AMERICANS NEED HELP FROM OUR WHITE HOUSE. THEY ARE DESTROYING US. WE DON'T WANT THIS. WE ARE EMBARRASSED.

Americans NEED to start speaking the obvious. Trump is a Russian asset.
