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

As Americans, I feel sad and embarrassed, as some of us get blindsided by the idiot/stupid/crook/traitor Dumb Trump as president, we are sorry to all our allies. some of us still has moral and integrity. sorry

As an American, I don’t watch CNN clips and believe what politicians say on either side to get my news. However, it’s absolutely true that EU, and China places tariffs on the US. It is also true that United States provide most of the security for all the free nations. At what point do we say enough? I do not know if Mexico or Canada has tariffs on US goods before this. But if they did, they have become quite entitled, haven’t they.

American Here. Let’s Go, Canada!!! I urge you to do everything you can to bring our president to his knees. Double down on anything that will hurt #47. The sooner he bends his knees, the sooner we get him out of office. He’s a liar and facts mean nothing to him. He sold us all out to Russia. Give him the worst you can come up with. We are with you. ??????????????

You have been taking advantage of the USA. noe that Americans want trade parity, you complain. you are abusive. Speaking of Russia to undercut America, you forget your suppottbto theSikhs terorits. toy have been ponging on theccmricans, nd now that aAmerican President, best in many years, has called off your taking advantage, you cry. GROW UP. YOU GOT THERE YOUR FTHER WAS PM. BUY CONT NOT GET MOB IN GHA MARKETS. THATY ISA HOW SMALL YOU ZR.

This Canadian president is a leader.!!! Canada wont stand alone with out getting world wide support USA have been a superpower for decades and a true democratic country that the world admired. Today this have come to a end. 2025 will go down in history for the year when Americas greatness and No1 econemy ended. The respect and the trust for USA under Trump is long gone!!! For Trump to put tarifs on canada just to make them suffer so trump can get Canada as its 51 state is mindblowing. Trump aint putting those tarifs on Canada because of fentanyl when it comes from china. Tarifs on China is another story but that will hit the US market to and companys. I cant belive the americans are just swallowing this whole without doing anything or can a president do whatever damage he wants without consequenses?

Bottom line to all this is the fact that the American people voted orange man fool back into office.\nOrange man even said during the elections what he was going to do…..so don’t act now as if you were blind sided or lied to because you were warned.\nReally its the American fools that voted for him that really is at fault but its too late to start blaming, etc.\nAll you American MAGA voters are getting exactly what you voted for….now just shut up…stop crying and complaining and just suck it up and deal with it.

On behalf of all Americans with an active brain i do sincerely apologize for the dumb tariffs imposed by Trump and Musk and i hope that after Trump leaves office we can get someone who understands tarrifs and its effects and who will revoke this tariffs and restore the healthy America and Canada relationship once again.

Its time for you americans to fix your stuff. The longer you let this go on, the worse its going to get. I thought you folks were both free and brave?

This is very very sad , what's happening here the Canadian and American always get along very well,the enemies love this very bad example.

True American and True Canadians stand with Canada! Trump is acting like Putin is to Ukraine! The war is coming, if Trump gets HIS WAY! I hope the US military opposes their government !!!

As an American Citizen, I for one hope we get through this tariff thing pretty quickly. Apologies for the trade war. Sad panda. This one voter had no interest whatsoever in trade war.

Unfortunately, Donald and his buddies are very much on another path - not Democracy!\nThe people of this country deserve so much better and so do our fellow North Americans, the Canadians. Dear People. Please know that in the hearts of most Americans, you remain our trusted allies and friends. And please accept, from the people, our heartfelt apology that we failed to get the word out in time and get the vote out sufficiently to keep both countries safe.

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)

I don’t know much about politics, but if the American people voted him in, can’t they get him out!

It will be a long time before this Canadian travels to the US or buys American products that I can get elsewhere.

Trumps administration has decided to Put the American people first the ones who where FORCED to work there asses off week on and on just to get the crap end of the check all cause this country and that country wanna fight and NOW THE US HAS THERE TRUE LEADER BACK AND SAYS NO MORE. YALL wanna find shit to complain about kiss my grits. USA USA USA USA ?? ? THANK YOU TRUMP GOD BLESS AMERICA AND DONALD J TRUMP. That’s my president!!! ?

We got this Canada! ?? I hope everything gets better soon with our American friends.

Thank you Canada. Maybe feeling Trump's policies directly will get into the heads of the selfish MAGA Americans and shake them free from their cult. Sadly, the welfare of their fellow Americans wasn't enough to vote for democracy, and now they will have to personally feel the pain. We, the defenders of democracy, will feel it too, but it's necessary to shake some sense into these idiots. This is years of Russian propaganda coming to fruition. Sorry Canada, I have voted against this, I have written and called my representatives, I have written and called politicians across the states begging them to stand up for us. I have gone to protests, I have done everything I can do while still remaining peaceful. Hopefully your country's justified retaliation can prevent the inevitable next step.\n\n-American progressive, USMC veteran, ally to Canada, Ukraine, and Europe.

Suffer Canada. You've added tons of tariffs on American products in the past and you're still doing it. Get your leftist act together. And you voted for Trudeau so that speaks for itself. Go cry to the choir.

We can't get mad at Canada this is exactly what Trump wanted you said once you said 100 times Trump does not give a damn about the American people

Who do you think gets all the money from the tariffs?? Trump and Elon.. Down their pockets.. At the expense of the American people.. I'm from Denmark, and I hope America will see things clearly.. And what is happening now, is absolutely insane..

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.

CNN cut out what our Prime Minister ?? was going to say as to the real reason why we are getting hit with Tariffs which is this,,,to economicaly cripple us so Trump can Annex Us,,Take over Canada,,,,we have what Trump wants,,Our minerals,water, rich resources,,,he wants to be like Putin his idol,,,,That is the real plan Americans,,,please wake up to this and get him out of office ,,,your country is slowly becoming a dictatorship brick by brick under Trump and his regime,,,

We (Americans) don’t want this either. Musk and trump are illogically running rampant. We (a good portion of us) want them gone, this was clearly a mistake on us that voted (or didn’t vote). We know trump and musk are liars, ignorant, and corrupt. We as a people have to figure out how to get this nonsense out. And for the record no I’m not a liberal and no I’m not a conservative. I see the pros and cons of both sides and both sides have beliefs I agree with and some I don’t.

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.

The money we have been taxed by Canada has put the American jobs at risk. Trumps bedside manner may not be pleasant but he will get the job done. The reason your boarder is more secure is because Trump made you do it! Quit gaslighting!!

As your average American citizen, I have no reason to give a fuck about Canada because I do not make enough money nor will I probably ever make enough money to want to go to a country that doesn’t allow their own citizens the right to own guns, not a single thing that man pleaded for and sympathy made any sense as the average American, who works his ass off I could give a fuck a less about Canada as a country just like every other country there’s no point of giving a fuck about them I’m never gonna be able to go to them and anyway, even if I did go to them, you get robbed by some piece of shit because a lot of them are Third World countries and you can’t even defend yourself. Absolute fucking jokes

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

Yup Canadian here and right now I’d like to send every made in America item be pulled from our shelves. Wth were people thinking when they voted that knuckle head Trump in? He is causing worldwide chaos and America WILL NOT come out better. You will stand alone in the end. Too bad the better Americans are getting caught up in the hate and anger from this idiot’s decisions. ?‍♀️ ? Canada is not for sale!!!!!?? ❤

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.

As an American, we're getting very sick of trump very quickly. Even conservatives are starting to get really quiet.

All I want to hear from Canada is how you are going to stop illegal drugs from coming into our country ?About time we get back to American made ??

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!

Hey Americans! Get ready for your FAFO.

Very good speech. All true and i cant wait to see the criminal trump to get boo'ed out of the oval office . Seldom have i seen someone as stupid as him and seldom have i seen such stupid measures that destroy not others but only and mostly americans.\n\nGod bless america to never vote again for the dummest guy in the country

Dear Canadians, As an American, I am so ashamed of our administration. They are an administration of liers, grifters and sycophants who have undermined our democracy. They are destroying our country and in the process undermining Democracies around the world. You have been our closest ally for 200 years and I am happy to have lived in Detroit and spent so many trips to your wonderful country. Please hold on until we can get to our midterm 2026 elections and remove the sycophants that have allowed this criminal enterprise to infect us.

Then close ur boarders to criminals bringing in fentanyl. And to the fake Americans who don’t support America go to Canada and live. And for the record u will all see how bad zelensky is he could have stoped the war by agreeing not to try to join nato. And can’t account for millions of dollars. And was warnd the meeting was just about the mineral deal because if we put troops in Ukraine Putin who is still very dangerous will see it as a act of war. And he said he will protect American intrust in Ukraine basically saying if Putin breaks a peace deal we will be there to help respond. But zelensky took the moment with the media to pressure trump into saying we will put troops there which could start ww3. And if u trust Canada over the US ur an idiot. This guy doesn’t care about his own country. Look at the First Nation people. And how migrants get more then the people who have been there for generations. And people and fentanyl is still coming in.

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.

Trudeau shouldnt talk, he is hated by his own ppl and TRUE AMERICANS STAND WITH THE USA if you dont, you are a traitor plain and simple.. not cater to simpletons like Trudeau who has done more to censor his ppl that protests always follow him. WE the MAJORITY who VOTED for Trump, OUR POTUS is doing what we the PEOPLE want. in the end we dont need Canada, they needs us. thats just a fact. when we sell our good in Canada, they tax us up the wazoooo, and we cant do the same? fk them ... thats not fair. USA is not the world POLICE and this highway robbery from other nations has to come to a stop as we have been giving consistantly for years and been getting the shaft from numbnuts like this fool. now we have a PRESIDENT with BALLZ....... and YES i served this country... 19k tank armored crewman and i served proudly...

Canadians demand that all business remove american products from their shelves...Make it easier for Canadians to buy Canadian only....Canadians have spoken....We support Canadian business....I live in Manitoba and I want to be able to buy products from Newfound Land to BC. I want to renovate my home with Canadian lumber, I want to eat Canadian foods, I want to wear Canadian clothes....Canadians have spoken loud and clear...we are doing our part, we want our gov to do the same so get rid of the provcial boarders and let Canadians show the US how Canadians put CANADA FIRST

Americans need to get the Russian asset out of the white house

I’m sooo tired of foreign leaders say Trump is aligning with Putin! He never said that! Americans know he is trying to help make peace between Ukraine and Russia to end a war which is also in Canada and the rest of the world’s best interests! I hate the deceptive media! Canada, we are in debt up to our eyeballs and won’t be able to remain a nation without hard monetary choices but to say Trump aliegns with Putin is a cheap shot to get away with what you do now.

Get a real job providing something that's really needed by your fellow Americans . F China .

Go Trudeau! You tell it! The REAL American people are behind you. Doing everything I can here to get the Trump Regime / Coup unseated as is my constitutional duty as a citizen.

God Bless our beautiful Country Canada ?? ? Canada is NOT for sale. This is what he wants and will NEVER get. The lies, greed, arrogance and trying to build an empire will backfire. Sad, the hard working and vulnerable Americans will feel the PAIN....NOT the rich and privileged.

Now can someone get the tRump to commit to stopping the cocaine from coming into Canada from the USA? Or how about the guns? It's a 2 way street here. We are doing our part, now you do yours. Keep your drugs and guns on your side of the border. Most crimes involving guns here are committed using American guns.

As an American I love and support Canada but I don’t support that dictator Trudeau. Canada please get him out asap. He has ruined your country.
