This is the consequence of depending on one country in everything. Diversify Canada. We love United States and we hope things gets resolved

For the vast majority of Americans, including Trump who don't know this: \n- 90% of all aluminum used in the USA comes from Canada. \n- 80% of the potash used to grow food on US farms comes from Canada. \n- Steel is made in Canada. - Uranium is exported from Canada. \n- Minerals needed for electronics are exported from Canada. The only alternatives are China and Russia. \n- 60% of all imported oil in the US comes from Canada. \n- Electricity produced in Canada is delivered to the states of New York, Vermont, Maine and over 20 other US states. We’ll soon find out if convicted felon Trump and his supporters need Canada when that electricity gets turned off. If Trump can rip our mutually-negotiated agreements so can Canada. We did not ask for this economic war nor did we start it. Trump did. \n \nIt's also time to super-tax every pound of US coal being exported through Roberts Bank Super-port in Delta, British Columbia, Canada. The American coal exported through Roberts Bank does not even pay a provincial carbon tax like all BC residents pay. Canadians are about to show Trump what happens when you consistently lie and stab your best customer and neighbour in the back. We are not afraid of Trump. Canada is the second-largest country in the world by land area and we have the longest coastline in the world, with over 243,000 kilometers of shoreline. We will continue expanding our trade with Pacific Rim countries, Europe, Mexico and beyond. They all need and want our lumber, minerals, oil and gas, grass fed beef, and the dependable, respectful trading partner that we are.

As an American I believe ALL Canadians should boycott US products and spending in the USA. This is not how the USA should treat its allies and friends. Now Canada will never trust the US and things will escalate. To all those commenters that say the USA has the upper hand and will win this battle, yeah maybe so but that's not how you treat allies and in the end the common man on both sides of the border will suffer. Tariffs are a US consumer tax. The country getting tariffed doesn't pay the 25% lol

how dead do your brain cells have to be to think that doing something like this will immediately solve the problem. If there wasn't a demand there wouldnt be anyone trying to fill the demand. Purdue Pharma also helped create the demand by pushing highly addictive opioid drugs and lying about it to people. Those people they hooked didn't suddenly disappear. It created a chain that we are still seeing today. They would rather put a bandage on the bleeding wound than cough up the money and the actual will to start solving the crisis that is driving people into drugs. Like lack of affordable housing, once people lose that safety and are on the street drugs end up providing a relief from their situation. Lack of any meaningful mental health care, or any health care at all. There are underlying things that aren't getting solved, people will always find new ways to find or make drugs whether those drugs come from other countries or just created inside the US.

Wow - this makes me sick - bunch of entitled ass-wipes - and don’t come back at me - I’ve known hunger and poverty. Venezuelan people are hated in most of Mexico, Central and South America. They come from a communist country and they are used to getting free everything. They cross 7 countries to shop for the best country with the best benefits near them hence the U.S. Biden messed the U.S. big time by giving them each thousands each in an EBT card to buy their own food cuz they complained about the free food we provided and therefore they were given the money cards and free luxury hotels for housing, free medical, etc. So their people contacted their people over there that we give free luxury 5 star hotel living and money cards over here, open border, etc. We had some at my apt. complex - broken glass in the pool, loud music way past midnight cuz they didn’t have to work -went on for about three years till they were finally evicted. Rudest people i’ve ever met. SMH

Canada is also doing something with oil and gas and thats just Canada wait. Trump is threatening allot of countries who will retaliate, joining together against trump. Trump knows he can't get the debt ceiling thing through the house so raising prices with tarrifs and taking all social supports are the next best way to fund his tax breaks for elon and the wealthy.

Maybe I shouldn't like this but I do. Firstly, Canada has the luxury of not really needing to protect itself, they get to spend 3% what the US does on their military so they can focus on other things, like letting immigrants into the Country to price out the native Canadians and jailing people for misusing pronouns. Also, I want to see the US become slightly more isolationist, I'll happily pay more for US products. A tariff is paid buy the businesses who attempt to pass that cost down to the consumer. We need tariffs high enough that making things in the US makes more sense to these businesses.

trump lies to his nation and others nations too. fentanyl is not even a real issue. theres like 1 percent of usa fentanyl coming from canada. i hope americans will get rid of him. this is an unjustified tariff against an ally country and its unacceptable. usa are responsible to take care of their own borders in the first place.

I'm a gas station oil purchaser and we just got the call on prices expecting to rise significantly Tuesday. Get ready everyone, this won't be good.\n\nStock up on food and gas if possible now. It's going to keep getting worse as other countries join in on retaliation. Remember these countries are only fighting against us while we're fighting against all of them. USA has very little natural resources quickly available (California water situation)

People need to fight for their country and the US needs to go and take over this dictator why are they fighting wars all over the world I'm the name of human rights but I'm the continent of America nothing gets done and we continue to see communism growing I'm CR and we had enough of this immigration disaster ?

Won’t be good on the US to get 25% tariffs from Canada, 25% from Mexico, and 10% from China. Each country got 25% or 10%. But the US all together will get 60% tariffs.\nthe tariffed products are different and come from different countries. However, the tariffs enter the US economy together.

My brother moved to Italy from New Jersey. They told him to get tf out until all his legal paperwork is complete. We are not the only country.

Every illegal no matter what color they are or what country they came from are getting deported

Most countries would get a machine gun to discourage when their borders are attacked. Trump will Make American Great Again. I heard one woman repeating Venezuela and I thought yeah get on that bus because you don't enter our country illegally

Why do these people think we have a open door to our country ?? This is ridiculous. And I dont want to hear from your liberal fucktards about “ everyone in America is an immigrant”. No , I’m not. I was born here. I didn’t come from somewhere else, neither did millions of others. You want to come that’s great, do the paperwork , get legal and pay the taxes. It’s really that simple.

Saw a report today that nearly 80% of all immigrants return to their country that they fled for vacation. They aren’t fleeing. They are getting freebies.

We need to stop bringing Somolians over to our country, giving them housing, food, and medical assistance when we Americans can't even get help from our own states because everything is already taken up from all these disgusting, disrespectful refugies!!!

Imagine if we can accept these folks train them and they can re-invade their country and get a government that works for the people so we don’t have to keep defending our southern border from situations like this .

Stop these people from getting into america! We dont want you in our country! Stay in your country! You people trying to come into our country and turn it into what you left is not happening!

Guess what! they fear because they know their actions were illegal. I get some citizens who have certain backgrounds being nervous but fear? No as they are already in the system and safe. But the criminals who took advantage of the US deserve to be deported. But, from my understanding ICE is so far only going after serious crime offenders such as drug, human trafficking, murder etc illegal aliens. It is culture shift but it is not only in the US. Europe, UK, Australia etc these all countries pulling back on illegals and mass migration.

There president in Mexico is not doing anything for her people. She focus drugs not helping her people in Mexico . It's not fair for America is doing a lot for people in Mexico . These people in Mexico are afraid in there own country. It's very sad. Their president in Mexico is not doing anything. Don't get mad at U.S.A.

Are we really safe in this country where people of criminal background are filing asylum and after two weeks they are getting our hard earned money 1200 dollars as a asylum help they don’t even pay college fees

Im all for transgender millitary nan. Most countries kill transgender and gay people. We cant help afew while putting most other soldiers in danger. They are not meeting medical standards, because ypu healthcare costs are astronomical and will only get worse as you age. Americans voted and choose not to pay for unnecessary, non lifethreatening surgeries, and you will eventually die from having the surgery. The medications that are required to take will kill you, but not before the multiple serious health issues that ypu will endure. The tax payers cannot continue to pay for ypur medically unnecessary desires. You have been casterated. Please leave the millitary, because that is absolutely insane!

Imagine trying to say you're a refugee after you just walked through 5 countries to get to to the US!!

This is what happens when you change the laws to make it unnecessarily difficult to get into the country and then pretend there's a migrant crisis even though you yourself created the crisis by changing the laws

They don’t even try to assimilate when they get here! They treat our cities and neighborhoods just like they do in their home country! They could care less about our way of life. This is an invasion!!

Guess they didnt get the message that sleepy Joe is out of office….jump on the nearest Trump train back to your country

Sad indeed Mexico is pathetic. Their President needs to get a backbone, get rid of the Drug Cartels and secure his border. Obviously the man couldn’t care less about the safety of the citizens in his country.

I really wish the global community would get involved in helping these suffering countries. These people are desperately trying to achieve any kind of livable conditions.

There are millions of these people. If they can come to the biggest military in the planet and try to over run us, why don't they get together and fight for your own country. You have assets that you don't even understand. Fight for Your Land. Hell I'll fight with you....

When migrants come to our country they steal our jobs our houses and our women and then they call their families and then they become Voting Bank for the Democrats and other left wing parties and gets all the benefits which our citizens also do not get... Ban all sort of migrations from Pakistan Bangladesh Afghanistan Iraq Turkey Lebanon Jordan Egypt Indonesia Malaysia Yemen Somalia Mexico etc... we had enough and we need absolute security for our children and families from those migrants...

Other countries leaders get voted in by their own people or by hook or crook unfortunately. All the sudden they want to flee to the USA ???

Thing is the oh so bright Kamala went there and told them they could come and our constitution and laws didn't apply to them. It was all set up to destroy America and then if you remember Joe signed something with Mexico and Canada giving up sovernty-to our border. Venezuela president a bad boy. He let his prison open for them to come here and Mexico agreed to let them all come through. Drug and human trafficking. I hate it for these ppl but the USA is broke. We borrow money every year to send money and aide to other country's. Why? They all have rich lands .they sell it out to China then the citizens suffer just like here in the USA. Gov. Needs to be giving us a check each year for what they sell out of the earth here. Only the Gov.officals get kickbacks. It's theft in all sense.

Cut the bridge no one should be able to pass either way until this stops. Every country needs to work on their own homes right now not inundate their neighbors just trying to stay afloat. It is not our problem that they keep having kids and overpopulated their areas having no jobs or allowing crime to get so bad they don't want to stay. Overrun your government and demand change in your house.

Their just bogarding their way into this country. Other countries don't put up with this invasion. All the homeless Americans not getting any help. ?

Shooot! They better be careful before the CITIZENS get involved! CNN needs to show more of this. I will protect this country!!! Abd im LATINO!

Sorry, guys, but I do agree with Donald Trump. We need to do something about everyone coming into our country. Illegals into our country and I did say. Illegals, we should be supportive and even whenever they come into our country. They should have a job they should pay for their own food. Nobody gave me a handout. I want to know why I have to pay for them a hand out. American people are sick of it are just d*** right sick of I say send them back. Where they belong, we can't afford to get our own homeless off. The sthree we should be working on earth. Not anybody else but us. And I'm talking about no other country. We should be working on getting our homeless office. Detroit built more housing for our homeless people. Are homeless are poor people that need jobs too

I'm a Romanian living in Spain! And in Spain if you stay here more then 3 months illegal you get sent to your country!

God, Colombia is a beautiful country.... \nColombia is hands down a far better country than the United States in almost every way....\nI was living there, and the health care was way better and worked much more quickly than here....\nThe country itself is so beautiful, the women are so beautiful, the weather is so nice all over the country.....\nI can't wait to get the fuck out of here and live there again....\nThey do just about everything better down there....

These illegals should remember that they can't storm the borders of the greatest country on earth. These Venezuelans loved communist and socialists politicians and they should lived with the socialist leaders they have elected. They get leaders that they have elected and should not let Americans to feed and provide housing and other benefits.

International law states very clearly that they apply at the first country that they get to. America shares no borders with Venezuela. Finish the border wall and enforce the laws we have now !

Fix their own countries lol that's not even a blip in their thought process, why would they want to fix something that they already ruined when they can just come ruin ours and get paid to do it. when you can make terrible places even worse imagine what they can do to our country in an extremely short amount of time

I guarantee if you asked Democrats if going into other countries without permission, they would say it was wrong. Dont break laws dont get deported easy concept

Get out of my country.

You’re a joke to our country just get out. This is a merit country

Of course if any one of you has come into our country illegally you're going to get out now!!! I don't care what color you are or what country you came from, you don't belong here!!

I pray the USA can get rid of all illegal aliens out of our country. In the military, I was in different countries, so I had the opportunity to travel. Guess what I always had to show my passport and declare how long I would be in the country. Never once did I try to break their laws. When you are breaking the law, you should have consequences!

It is sooooo weird those creatures would want to openetrate an other country....why\nWhat do they want?\nWhat do they think they will get....besides even more misery\nSo delusional

They are just going to come here and wave their flag. Anyone who comes here their national alliance is to America. The way you get here is the way you keep marching. Forward with your old country behind you, not carrying it on your shoulders with pride. We have some Americans we can send with you!!!! There should be some kind of mass moving out since trump won. Politics ????? now the blue side or left side whatever it's called. They are trying to get people to swear in open court not to do the exact same things they have been doing. ??????

Venezuela ?? needs to get Chavez out so people can live in their country at peace. Such a tragedy for the venezuelan people.
