Canada needs to build a wall to keep us out.

I guess it is a hard “No” to Canada becoming the newest US state,then?

Please don't say they its only trump. Us in America feel the same way yall do Canada

how about Trudeau step down then none of this would be happening. Trudeau & the Liberals have destroyed Canada. Could he leave already? US economy is bigger than Canada idiot.

Michigander and US Citizen since BIRTH. Canada is our best ally, what the actual F? We support your decision Canada!!! I've never been more embarrassed to be an American.

As a US citizen living in Australia I’m proud of you Canada. I spent a lot of time in Canada ?? beautiful people and a beautiful place. You don’t deserve to be treated like this.

How is Canada escalating something the US escalated? I don't get this comment from the CNN anchor.

There is one winner in the trade war between the US and Canada, the EU, China, Mexico...his name is Vladimir Putin

God help us. I have never seen anything so terrible in my 76 years from any US President. I stand with Canada, UK, Ukraine, and Europe and all our NATO allies that we used to have as friends.

Canada, please HELP us get him out!!!

The opipid and fentanyl plague in US is not fault of Canada or Mexico, it is fault of the shitty health care system inUS, and hreed of the wealthy. . So to fight it the IS needs to make thongs right within and not bully neighbours. Of people don't do drugs because they have jobs, hope for future and decent health care...

Thank you Canada for being our Ally and friend. We are devastated how our allies are getting treated by our oligarchy administration. Lord help us.

We don't back down to anyone when it comes to Canada our freedom comes first Donald Trump win this war come on man what you thinking when it comes to us

As an American, I've been trying to work out in Alberta as a Pipe Insulator for over five years with no response, but you guys let in other foreign nations. How about you give the people in the US citizenship if we are seeking refuge. I want out of this crappy over priced country more than you know, and all of my Canadian friends have way more respect, values and integrity that the people in the 40's 50's 60..etc used to have in this country. We love you Canada!

The US undermining Canada, Europe, and the rest of western allies only benefits the Kremlin.\n\nPutin must be delighted his master plan to weaken democracies and NATO is actually working.

Sorry as a American this is our life's at risk .keep your proud stance.proud stance for Canada.We are in tears losing our great country to criminals God Bless Canada we our scared stressed for our social security, health care and our anger at the thugs taking away our relationship our fear to keep breathing and enjoy our past relationships Thankyou for your love to all people God is good God help us !????????

Zelinsky will be crawling back to us, and Canada will tighten up their act, will drop the tariffs and that’s it. The United States runs the world.

How this makes sense?! If I buy US products in Canada, I am charged 25%… and always being like that.

Canada's economy really means nothing to the US but why are we punishing Canada, our closest ally

The only thing D.T. is doing is ruining everything with his politic. (But I guess we all know about it).\n\nThat's the one whom signed the Free trade agreement between US, Canada and Mexico. The same guy whom now pretexting this agreement is not good for US. \nHe destroys all the friendship with US allies and what has been built for decades.\nIn 4 years, what wil be left over?\n\nAmericans will suffer the incompetence of this guy.\nIf only it was not real, we could either think it's a fiction or a joke, unfortunetly neither of both of them; that's a reality.

We Stand With Canada. Shame on our idiot of a president. Selling us out for RUSSIA ??‍♂️ stay safe my fellow Americans

Does Canada charge the US tariffs or other types of charges? If so, how much?

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

I'm american and no I didn't vote for this big bumbling bafoon. He isn't a leader of anything but what he wants. I stand firmly with Canada & ukraine. I truly believe God is with us.❤❤❤

What about saying that Trump is the best Sino-Russian asset in the US ? 'cause that is what he is, currently... jeopardizing generationnal friendship and alliance partnership for a despicable inner self.\nAs a French citizen, I stand with you and your people, Sir Trudeau. And I'll always stand with Canada. *You don't boot a cousin out.*

Watch out Canada, there's going to be a lot of US citizens looking to move north. The real best country on earth.

There ARE winners in a trade war. Many Americans want literally nothing to do with Canada after the booing of our national anthem. Not our President, but our anthem. Some will never forgive. We will endure without Canada, say hi to Xi for us.

Mr. Prime Minister. The people of the United States love Canada we would do anything to help stop this. You are our closest✌️ friend and ally for years and years please don’t hold it against us because we have an idiot in the White House. God bless.

I just moved from my California home state for the second, but just to let you know Canada i'm with you!! This trade war with these countries, are ridiculous but only to line, and continue to line the pockets of billionaires like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and the tech family..... Trump has tried to stay close to Putin, but no one asks why?? We're not at war with Russia? He's been wanting the wealth Putn has every since he, and his wife visited in 1983.. He loves their minerals, and i ask President Zenlensky, if he signs that mineral agreement be careful how it's worded!!! J D Vance had know right to speak to Zelensky in that manner!! Trump, needed an education in government before he ran for any office, it's laws, etc... he's embarrassing when he speaks, calling other government officers stupid, and the like, like a child in school!! Why doesn't someone fact check Donald Trump vs Joe Biden with the things he's done vs the things Donald did while in office, as Biden knowing the law vs Trump as what he could do as a US President, not running this country like he runs his business!! I'm Georgia now, and still wouldn't voted for that man....!!!

US gets 50% of Canada's natural gas production and $100B+ of crude oil from Canada - all US consumers will be stuck with the price increases... don't matter if you are red or blue.

US Army veteran here… FDT and much respect to Trudeau as well as love to Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. Trump is a Fascist and his very existence goes against everything I swore in my Oath of Enlistment to defend and uphold

You realize Canada needs us, we do not need them. This is almost comical.

The Donald is digging a big hole.\nDomestically an internationally.\n???????????????\nSell your gas an oil to us canada

Strength and honor, Canada! You still have a strong and friendly partner in us, México.

Poland ?? here as well. It absolutely does not make sense for the US to impose those tariffs. Europe is supporting you Canada!

Forget Canada as the 51st state.\n\nAs a Northeastern American, I think most of us would prefer to become a province of Canada at this point.

He’s CRAY! Wasn’t us! We stand with you Canada!

Trudeau the governor of Canada. Don’t be a cry baby, join USA and enjoy benefits like other US states.

Ok Trudeau, if Canada is implementing a tariff as well does that mean Canadian will also stop paying taxes like Trump is doing in the US?

You can say whatever you want when Canada made money from trade deficits with the US of over 60 billion a year.

Canada already charges tariffs on US products, Trump is just leveling the playing field, you charge we charge, you don't buy our products, we don't buy your products.

This is so embarrassing for us Americans. Not MAGA. Americans. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico and the rest of the sane world.

You follow the money trail of China and Canadian dealings ,an investigative journalist did and found precursor supplies to make fentanyl heavily coming into Canada from China, being assembled in Canada, then shipped to mexico drug cartels from Canada, then entering US across mexican US border....so how is Canada not to blame when RCMP know of drug labs in Canada and turn blind eye as do the politicians, and meanwhile China launders the drug money through real estate and casinos. No one wants to address the elephant in the room. Life is easier while Blind, till it isn't!

Canada strong!!! We must not let the orange moron bully us.

Lol Canada is a lazy neighbor who always wants to borrow sugar, but never pays us back

Trump has sold America to Russia. America wake up and Do The Right Thing...Revolt against Trump. We will die under his leadership...Trump got of jail and unleashing his wrath on US citizens. Well done Canada..Well done ❤

Many of us American people think our president and government are nuts! Can we move to you Canada? My crazy government can have this country with a few million less people!

There's a trade deficit with Canada.....if you actually think US will be worse in the long run compared to Canada, you would not go on TV like this Trudeau. You would just tariff

Stop calling it fentinal and call it what it is DRUGS . When are we going to start hitting them back about all the drugs coming into Canada not to mention all the guns that are so easily obtained in the states which are illegal here. Also put import taxes on imported goods from the US. This tax to be paid by the seller make it income for Canada and not an expense.

Newsflash Justin, we could afford it if you weren't already taxing us to death......CarbonHoax tax .....take 8t with you when you leave. Stop representing Canada, you resigned because we hate you.
