someone will be making a fortune on the stockmarket when tariffs are called off - another way the billionaires are manipulating the system to gain more

Ah yes the drama teacher turned corrupt liberal dictator who has RUINED CANADA over the last 9 years!! He makes me sick! He doesn't give 2 ? ? about groceries and gas prices for us. He spent $81,000 of Canadian tax dollars on his own grocery bill this year - yeah! That's $1557 a week or $257 a day stuffing his face. That doesn't even include his dining out. He's a liar and needs to disappear like he said he would ?

im from england and so proud our leader and other world leaders are saying no to putin and trump i cannot believe what i have witnessed the last few days never mind the inhumane atrocities in Ukraine the past years, make me so scared for my children and grandchildrens futures but we should not give in to bullies!! SUPPORT UKRAINE!!!

Canada make it 50% !!!

Makes sense cause we don’t want to go to war, tuff talk from our northern neighbors we protect, also Ukraine can get funding from others, I’d prefer my taxes go to finding snails and helping them cross the road

It don’t make sense and I’m sorry to the rest of the world cause this man is destroying our continent never in my life I would of thought a Russian news reporter was in the freaking White House, Ronald is rolling in his grave ?

We don’t need Canada to feed us we have many farms many USA companies many USA stores we don’t need Canada food Canada drinks Canada items we can make our own clothes we have our own cars

Finaly our prime minister stands for Canada and says straight and clear exactly how it is. This is disgusting, we knew from the start the drugs are just a lie and pretext of the clown to make us join or annex Canada but WE WILL NEVER NEVER GIVE UP !! 1

Finish Free trade zone with EU. Its already in progress, with maximum engagement from Canada and EU it can be done it less than a month. Lets call it MTES - Make Trumputin Eat Shit.

Everyone keeps saying this doesn't make any sense the only way this could possibly make sense is that Donald Trump has sold us out to Russia.\nDonald Trump is a Russian asset.

Trump is going to make our allies not have USA back the future.This is not looking well for Usa

kudos to PM for calling Trump out on using fentanyl as an excuse, other leaders should take advice from him and just call Trump out, Trump has no problem making lies to sell his narrative to his fans, leaders should oppose it and not let him just lie to anyone who believes him

As an American I will make a greater effort to buy Canadian

One man is destroying the whole world. Making enemies with all are allies. But nothing to help the working class that are struggling. And maga is clueless they think he's a tough guy and don't even care to really fact check and see they are going to suffer the most.

Everything makes perfect sense if you accept that TRUMP is a Russian asset, paid by Putin

wow what a leader, so will spoken precise, professional in mannerisms and make pointless positive point. Wish we had that.

I think this is an initial step of Trump trying to get Canada’s natural resources. I don’t know how it would play out, but that’s the only thing I can make sense of based on Trump’s broader actions and comments.

Trump didn’t make America great again, he made the world great again.

We dont trust you shitbag, Canada already ousted you! The only thing this will do to anerica is make a bunch more american made millionaires. We will replace your Canadian bullshit with American made real shit. By Canada, u need us, we dont need you!

Even Americans cannot make sense of this madness. ?

Canada must impose tariffs on energy , don't be weak, don't back down , what are you waiting for Canada ?? \ngo for broke, make the moscow agents feel it

We need to kick Trump out of the office drum is a disgrace to America. He makes us look so bad how our neighbors we work for many years in good faith are you up? You're neighbors looking down at us

This baffling behaviour by Trump and his administration is sinister. He is dismantling the NATO alliance which is the main defensive safeguard against a malevolent Putin regime. He focuses on Ukraine, a victim of naked aggression, as the party which needs to make concessions. No criticism is levelled at the Putin regime. Russia could not imagine behaviour more favourable to them .\nBut furthermore, Trump appears to be diminishing the USA in terms, not only of economic power, but also reputation, international respect, military status and World influence. \nOne wonders whether Trump is deliberately doing this as part of his allegiance to Putin? Is he in fact a Russian asset? He could not be more successful if her were so?

Can't make sense out of nonsense. Smh. Trump is out of control.

Ok…. When did Trump become a “smart guy”? He makes some pretty dumb decisions…

Trump's doctrine; Tariffs for allies, sanctions relief for dictatorships. Make it make sense.

Don’t tariff America. As a Canadian two wrongs don’t make it right. Get the energy out. Triple our global output. Our autoworkers need jobs well let’s build Trudeau. Talk and winning. Global energy. Let BYD in with out tariffs. We don’t have an auto sector anymore. ? BYD and get over it ( the eagles ?). Trump is correct at our lack of defence. Maybe this will help. The only way to scourge out of fentanyl is a clean source and less social stigmatization of the sick. Don’t expect a smart man like trump to figure that out.

Make America 3 world country Again.

Make sure you thank people you know who voted for Trump for this.

If you stop assuming Trump serves US interests, everything starts making perfect sense.

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

Trump and Elon just lay in bed with Putin while polishing off each others knobs while making posts on truth social.

Make that make sense, well simple you all colonizers look what have you done to this continent

From a German once living a year in Canada: If you make a Canadian that angry you really messed it up. I couldn't imagine of any better ally to have. You deserve to be treated so much better and such behavior comes from a person shouting for more respect at others. All my love to your beautiful country.

usa government just joined russia... europeans do not see usa as an ally anymore. not for the next 4 year. usa is isolating itself like russia and north korea did.\nremember global trade after ww2 is what made usa so rich. if you want to be great again you need to have allies, you need open markets... this is anything but making america great again.

MAKE CANADA GREAT AGAIN! \n\nWe foundation Audit!!\nGreenbelt Audit!\nSNC Lavellin Audit!!\nArrive Can Audit!\nMcKinsey Consultant Audit!\n\nLet’s see why our Canadian dollar is deteriorating and stop sending blame shall we? \n\nAmerica has EVERY right to put their citizens first, can we do the same?

Trump is so far out of line. Make America great again. I don't think so unless Trump falls from Putin's stairs.

Go ahead and make my day

MAGA = Make America Garbage Again!

Trudeau is personally involved with the Fentanyl trade. That’s why propping up bills and “plans” will never be enough. Trump knows this.\n\nHe’ll never be out of the drug game until he’s removed. Neither will his puppet “drug czar”\n\nWe’re calling for the dismantling of the trade. That’s going to get messy. When we see that, tariffs come down. \n\nUntil they make big busts of the industry portion of making fentanyl and the banks laundering the cartel money the tariff stays.

Im american from orlando fl ,Congratulations mr trump, you're gonna make america poor gain.

What would make Canadian conservatives not be pro Trump? And/or not blame Trudeau and the center/left of center Canadian national government? Don’t they think that a Conservative PM would react the same way Trudeau is reacting?

But Trump promised us that this would make America great again..

I am not the biggest Trudeau supporter at all but he makes me proud to be Canadian. Canadians will band together, we will get through this.

That does not make sense. Neither does working with Putin. ????????????????

Why does Trudeau have to make this much sense now rather than before?

Cut them the energy today. When Trump is making his speech.

Putin hates Canada so Trump is trying to kill Canada to make that murderous parasite Putin happy.

Good for trudeau. Trump is attacking his allies and his people cause he's a coward. He won't attack the real evil cause he's afraid. All he wants to do is make the rich richer. Why can't the people see it. This is how dangerous trump is.

It DOES make sense. Trump is a Russian agent, codename Krasnov. He is ordered by Putin to create chaos in the west. That’s getting increasingly clear. The question is, are there any responsible forces left in the US, who can stop this madness? Or, ar we just driving down the road to full mayhem?
