Trump is a moron and is destroying America. As long as he’s in office America is doomed. Lucky ass Canada with a leader that gives a shit.\n\nUnfortunately Trudeau is dropping facts, facts hold no space in Trump or his supporters brains.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. Europe can buy your gas and oil instead of USA.

I've worked since the age of 12 years, now I see my retirement disappearing and live in daily fear of being homeless. I only have my voice to fight back and I support Canada.

Make that Make Sense! Standing with our ally. Canada is Standing on Business!

I'm a Detroiter, I live right across the river from Windsor, Ontario, Canada. This is going to kill the U.S. Auto Industry! I stand with CANADA on this one ??

Trudeau destroyed Canada with carbon taxes and bad liberal policies. Trudeau is a spoiled rich brat dictator. \nNow he is using trump as a smoke screen.

Very professional ? \nNo gutter language, no tantrum, no name calling, or disrespecting anyone, unlike the baby in the White House.\nJT got the message across in a very clear manner. \nThank you JT for being a good ambassador for Canada ??

Canada is all blow and no go. Only heard blah blah blah.

It's time for Canada to step up and take the place they are capable of, lead the way in the Americas along side Mexico and stop living in the shadows of the USA.

Canada needs the United States more than we need the Canadians. They have a 200 billion trade deficit with the US and just about everything we get from Canada, we can produce right here in our country. Energy, lumber, produce etc.\nThere might be a little discomfort in the beginning but a year from now America will be better off.

As an American I stand Behind Donald Trump 100% it is time we build our economy and stop letting other countries get rich off of the United States. Its time for Canada and other countries to pay up.\nDonald Trump handed Zelensky just how he should have. I back Donald Trump 100%\nCanada needs America we don’t need Canada. \nA Large percent of Canada population live on the border of the United States that should say a lot. \nCanada y’all stay in your country and we will stay in ours easy as that

Indigenous American here, we stand with Canada, Mexico, the UK and Europe! Not russia.

Bad for Canada. Bad for America. Bad for the world. The question is whether the majority of MAGAs abandon Trump after a recession begins because of Trump's policies. I'm not sure. Maybe? For sure, they'll try to blame Biden. And some just want Trump to fight the culture war and are willing to accept the consequences of an economic downturn so long as trans people are restricted on the bathroom they can use. Some are rich enough that they wouldn't be affected by a recession. As if world events weren't already volatile enough.

Putin's puppets have marching orders to divide our country, trash our economy, destroy our security, remove us from NATO to eliminate allied relationships. Then Donald can just hand over Ukraine to a murderous thug named Putin. Pretty much on track, I'd say. They have been bought and sold their souls to the devil.\n\nI support Canada and hope they continue to stand up to the bullies. It breaks my heart that enough people voted for an adjudicated rapist, 34x convicted felon, conman, pathological liar, malignant narcissist grifter who is now calling the shots. He is Putin's puppet... pure and simple, Donald's a traitor!

?I am confused I thought he stepped down for embarrassing Canada. He is weak and can not run a country especially Canada—?complete idiot

Canada is the second powerful next to russia. Never treat them trump they can stand by itself

Im going to visit Canada more often than I already do. \n????

This Mexican American stands with our President TRUMP! USA…USA….\nWe don’t need Canada, CNN is also FAKE NEWS!?

United States did not start this trade war. Trump and the Republican Party did and I’m so sorry Canada because you don’t treat a friend and neighbor like that !

Wow, articulate strong talk, no lies, no propaganda, no bluster, none of the total and complete unrelenting bullshit we have endure on a daily basis from the sociopathic delusional asshole that currently occupies the White House. It should be no surprise that our leadership chooses to blame all of our problems on someone else, because that's exactly what they do every day. We have a drug problem, it's because of Canada and Mexico. We have an immigration problem, likewise Mexico and Canada. We have a deficit problem, that's because of the EU and NATO. Our problem is our government, specifically Republicans who won't accept the simple truth: you want to solve problems you have be disciplined and smart. You have to spend money to fix your problems instead of blaming some else and trying to get them to pay for it. You pay to solve your problems instead of giving huge tax cuts to people who don't need them. You stop lying to your people. You want to change the trade imbalance? Build products that other countries want at a price that makes sense. The EU has no laws that prevent American car manufacturers from selling their cars in Europe. American car companies make shitty cars. They make cars that are too big, that don't make sense for European where streets can be very small and gas is very expensive. The US manufacturers don't make a single small car in thos country that can compete with European cars. US agricultural products are laced with poisonous chemicals that are outlawed in the EU because they kill people. Our governmeent doesn't give a shit about that because to grow healthy food means you have to cut profits, almighty dollars, instead of grow things that the rest of the world will accept. We have an idiot for president who thinks he knows more than anyone else and an idiot party that won't tell him the truth. This is going to cost us big time. We are going into recession, probably a long one because we don't have real leaders and the president on his best day is nothing more than a reality TV personality, and not a very entertaining one at that.

Canada, will you accept us if we want to become citizens of your company???

I am a conservative Canadian. I should admit this was the BEST speech I ever heard from Trudeau ! We are all together in this war ! God bless Canada ??❤️

Canada must join European Union :D

Relax. Trump knows what he’s doing. It’s time for Mexico and Canada to lower their tarrifs so we all on even playing field.

A American Marine Corp Veteran stands with you Canada. Stay strong. What Maga doesn't realize is there are many 3rd party voters who are going to start working on doing the things that need to be done to throw the road blocks because he has definitely started down the road road to dictatorship.

We ❤love You Canada, and we respect you. Do what you need to do because we are not dealing here in USA with normalities. The 2025 Government is not qualified to their positions,but they are there to help the billionaires, while we the people starve. WE STAND WITH CANADA ?? TODAY AND TOMORROW ❤

I have family and friends in USA. Plus I belive there big drug problems in Canada and the border. Think Trump was asking him clean up. Yes good help other countries but. Canada ...we taken in sooo meny. With housing soo high because storage. And jobs.

It is not the people of the United States who are doing this outrageous betrayal to our good friends in Canada. It is the evil people in control of our nation.

Sure. We don't need Canada. You guys should understand what we do for Canada before you become afraid..

Proud New Yorker, fully standing with Canada! ??❤

?‍♂️ Canada wasn’t buying our shit anyways. They put Canadian business first, which is good. \n\nNow we’re gonna give that a try.

Annex Canada! Not really a country!

True Americans stand with you Canada ??.

Trump and his real President 'Mucks' (sic) we absolutely hate u and your electorate for the decimation and fascism you are inflicting on the world ... from UK a distant cousin and now a disaster 'crash and burn' waiting to happen.. ur delirious (Gaza Riviera, Canada 51st state, Greenland, Gulf of Mexico, Panama Canal) ..fork off to the right

Trump wants to break Canada weakening them to make them the 51st state. Canada there are other markets to trade with. Companies are going to move from the US and with them so will your trade route.

The US is our biggest ally here in Costa Rica but I can´t agree with what Trump did, does and will continue to do. Disrespectful to all countries. I'm sure the majority here are rooting for Canada and Mexico.\nIts time for the world to remind the US that they need us all and not the other way around.

So sad we won’t back down stay strong Canada ??

Canada is a richer country than america much nicer happier place

This is Trump's version of The Wizard of Oz. Fentanyl was NEVER the issue. Why would an administration BENT on ruining federal workers' livelihood, cutting off food to the global poor via cruel reductions in USAid, gutting Medicaid show ANY concern for drug-related deaths?\n\nAstute author Naomi Klein (from Canada) coined the terminology of The Shock Doctrine. THAT is what's being done, but this time, instead of it being aimed at Middle East nations, it is hitting the U.S and its neighbors.\n\nShame on the fools pretending to be leaders, fools that our supreme court should have prevented from EVER holding office. SHAME!

I support Canada in their fight continue to stand up to this bully that what’s to control everything and everyone he is all\nAbout money the republicans party are all scared of him so they are all going along with him how could America stand there and let a dictator destroy the country we are living in the last days all we can do his pray sad??

Go Canada!!!!!

As a Trump supporter i dont support tarrifs on Canada

I Am A PROUD AMERICAN, \nI COME FROM A FAMILY OF HARD CORE COMBAT VETERANS\nSINCE. 1776.\nI Proud Of My CANIDIAN Ancestry On My Maternal Side,\nNova Scotia, Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Ontario CA\nI Pray CANADA. SHUTS DOWN\nTHE MY OIL SUPPLY \nAND POWER TO THOSE STATE'S\nWho Think MAGA Spicemens \nWho Think ORANGE ? DRAFT DODGING CRIMINAL SUFFER.

You Americans really need to get over yourselves. That was not harsh language, that was very measured and direct. Trump berated Canada with nasty language. If you want hash language, then we would tell you to F off and go and play with you puppet master, Putin.

Boy Canada ?? president talks with intelligence and charismatic purpose! Forgot what that was like from our leader !

I’m an American who’s standing with Canada ?? and Ukraine ??

Trump and Putin both want and need Canada for the simple reason of the Arctic melts. Ships can now travel that pass. Trump is known, and I'm surprised the media doesn't bring it up, to have financial ties to Russia as an American citizen even well before 2016. What kind of blackmail from Russia would make Trump totally sell out his country.

From 0% to 25%. This will affect jobs people’s live hood, both side, but mostly in Canada. Completely totally unfair.

4 more years Canada, We will learn from the mistakes trump has made. I pray we keep all the working men, women and their families safe from extreme inflation and help them in every way possible. As a non government citizen of Canada. I can confirm that we are doing this as a last resort. Trump is destroying your country.

Europe stands whit Canada ???? Trump is a KGB agent!?????
