Your country is now going to go broke cuck boy Trudeau, your a liberal slime that has ruined that country. This will hurt Canadians a whole lot more than Americans, pack your stuff, move on and sign over your country to us! 51st state of Canada, you can’t weather this storm, your already broke.

I'm an American embarrassed of this administration. Just give us all of the tarrifs ? this trade war needs to end.

We have an enemy within named trump! But that does not excuse those that put him in office not one time but twice! What a disgrace. I’m scared for us!!!

As a Canadian I’m boycotting as many US goods as I can. My many likeminded US friends, don’t give up hope - keep resisting this current US administration! ??

AGREE,what is this about definitely not the border !Trumps REGIME is trying to weaken Canada so he can Annex us!!!\nThat will never happen most Americans disagree with Trump more than half now after what has happened in the news lately!!\nThank you Mr.Trudeau for an eloquent,intelligent response to Trumps DUMB plan.After decades of good relations between our nations Trump has chosen Putin’s playbook\nCanadians and the world now are BOYCOTTING the once upon a time Ally Our neighbour America!!\nThis will not play out well for Americans Canadians or Mexicans \n??????

Looking forward to when US pumps run dry. It is only Canadian oil that many US refineries can use to make gasoline. Time for CANZUK +EU. The USA cannot be relied on. Never thought I’d see the day the US turned to the dark side.

I think Canada will be better off than the US with these Tariff’s. The US government is grifting their people while Canada will help their businesses. Trump doesn’t care about US citizens, only his own glory.

USA should up Canada tariff to 50%. Screw them. No one in the world gives a sh1t about Canada. All your famous rich ppl came to the USA to get famous and rich. What have they EVER done???? ??? Our GDP to Canada is 17%. Theirs to us is only 2%. Don't need them.

From Sweden: we stand with you Canada! Don't back down to that bully of a president in the US. ????❤️

All Canadian tariffs should come in to play now. Hurt the US.

Trump is not my president!!! ?????I live in Utah. We are with Canada, Europe and Mexico. Putin is enemy for all of us. He is manipulating with idiot Trump.

Canada has done nothing but put out propaganda. Canada is a Liberal country that interferes with our elections. Now if I want to know how to adjust my fake eyebrows or how to talk tough while having a small population and only one neighbor that happens to be an ally and the world's super power then I'll ask Trudeau and the Canadians for their input. In the meantime, their people don't work and the Canadians depend on us for their rights to the sea since they don't spend much on defense. America will win. Canada won't exist without America.

We're not your friend or your ally anymore after you committed this unprovoked act of war against us. We won't forget what you did even if Trump chickens out again - America is responsible for this. Enjoy having Russia as your ally instead.

Please remember Trump did NOT win the popular vote. The majority of us do not stand with Trump. God help us all. We stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine. We do not stand with Russia, China, or N Korea.

All this is cause by a puppet who is a convicted felon criminal we call our president....Could it get worse?absolutely impeach D*ck Stain Donald Trump and arrest and deport Elon Musk for being a POS billionaire and human being...MAGA SHIT ? God help us all from this madness

A rather liberal PM stands up to the US!

German here that happens to have ties to both the US and Canada. Germany and Europe is with you Canada, you are on the right side of history! Don´t let yourselves get bullied by this lying sack of BS. Geez I´m craving for a Donair right now.

MAN..,, you’re living in a fantasy world if you truly believe everything you said, and apparently no one you know is affected by the atrocities done not to mention national security, which protects us against all enemies! The veterans who fought for us! The seniors who worked hard for their Social Security! And the aid not only for foreign but for all Americans! Do you want Ebola to get here from Uganda? And what they’re doing to our children education and necessary, medical aid, and

“The one thing he [Trump] has said repeatedly is that what he wants, is to see a TOTAL COLLAPSE of the Canadian economy. Because, that will make it easier to annex us; is the second half of his thought… \n \n“We will never be the 51st State. But, yeah, he [Trump] can do damage to the Canadian economy… Let us not fool ourselves about what he seems to be wanting.” \n \n“This is a policy decision by the American government, designed to go after the Canadian economy… We’re booing a policy that is designed to HURT US!” We’re insulted, and we’re angry… We’re going to fight.” \n \n\t\t \t\t\t– Justin Trudeau (4 March, 2025)

The only people that might get hurt out of this is the canadian people yall dont want any kind of war with us trade war physical war etc. Fafo cross your siuthern border with 1 soldier please

I come from a long line of Canadian’s, I’m not a fan of Trudeau but I have to say he made me proud today standing up to the school yard bully. I know most Americans don’t support what Trump is doing because as Canadian and Americans we are decent hard working people who don’t need a government that doesn’t speak for the people God bless us all the world needs to find a way for peace our children and grandchildren deserve better.

Says the guy that told Trump when asked about the number one way the United States could hurt Canada would be through tariffs. PS - Oh no, $155B. What is that, like 4% of US imports? We will be fine. Go rip off someone else and fund your own defense.

I’m so sorry Canada. Trump is America turd . Help us flush him . I’m an American and I stand with Canada and Ukrainian.

Canada as an American I am so sorry for us all

I would've loved for canada to go full petty and make their border patrols start whistling and turning around whenever they find fentanyl on its way to the US :D

Fentynayl? Thats the reason? From Canada? Youve got to be fucking joking. They probably get more Fentynayl from by way of the US then vice versa.\n\nHow much mote delusional does trump have to be for his supporters think rationally for once?

Somebody said: once you realize trump works for Putin, everything he does makes sense. As an American, I fully support Canada on this non-sense from the US.

You need to put a 25% export tax on your energy, minerals, and oil. It will increase the price of everything in the US immediately.

Mr Trudeau, \nHere in the US we have an unstable President who is tearing down our democracy. I support Canada - He (Donald) is not a smart person …

Unfortunately Trump and Musk are forming an oligarchy and\ncouldn’t care less about American citizens. Just hope our allies can move in to help us when we get rid of this admin.

As someone from the Netherlands, I wish our former prime minister and current NATO leader Rutte responded in a similar way to Trudeau. He was always a true politicians' politician, but the way he stood with the US right after the horrible treatment of Zelensky was a new low. If the majority of US allies responded in a firm manner the way Trudeau just did, it might be enough to scare some Republicans into doing the right thing.

I’m sorry Canada. I’m ashamed to be from the US right now.

Trump is intentionally leading America into a war on our soil. It will be China who attacks us….

Well, us american people don't want this either.It's just that we got some President that has a high Eagle trip and he's picking the wrong allies, he needs to be impeached.

As a US citizen I don't want tariffs either.

Excellent speech!! Trudeau for US President!!!!!!!

Canadian Prime Minister is a true stateman unlike the two elected leaders of the US who are innately a pathological liar.

Half of our voters chose to do this to us. Everyone still happy with your vote if you voted Trump? \n\nI’m sorry Canada. ?‍???

Go Canada, let him have it. Know that most Americans don’t support his actions. More than half of us DID NOT vote for him, and those that did likely had no idea what tariffs were or certainly didn’t understand how they work. Though I didn’t vote for him, I am so embarrassed and I am so sorry to the entire world for the horrible decision so many people in my country have made.

I want to apologize to our friends to the north. Most of us don't approve of trump's actions.\nI for one, stand with you. \ntrump is wrong and he's going to destroy our country.

Can the US please take the racist Afrikaaner frm south aftrica since they are a dumping site.

Putin advise Donald Trump to disassociate ourselves with all of our allies and to break down our defenses so he can then come in and start a war with the United States of America then we would have no allies that we can count on because of all the enemies that Donald Trump has made in once Putin can take over the United States of America and start bombing us then we are f***** and we will learn how it feels to be bombed and lose many of our people here in the United States just like Ukraine is going through right now and other countries that are fighting for their freedom and their people! Y'all have to understand this s*** is bigger than tears and Donald Trump is too f****** dumb to understand and to see what Elon musk, putin, Kim Jong-un all are plotting against his dumbass to hurt the United States of america, to hurt his own people, Donald Trump do not give a f*** about the United States of america, let's be clear or his people, and he damn sure does not give a damn about the Constitution of the United States of America

We know Canada, we know world. There are just millions of stupid people in the US and I don't see that changing, unfortunately.

Donald Trump isolates the US from all it’s allies. Leaving the world stage to its enemies. It is madness

Quit acting like this is a guy who Canadians actually like. Trudeau is massively unpopular and will be gone very soon, when the new Prime Minister of Canada is put in place there will be a deal. Canada has run wild for far too long getting the best of us in every way now that it is fair they act as if they have been doing us favors all along when it has been the other way around.

Twice in a week Trump is humiliated by a world leader, Trump thinking he can be a president of a country like the ceo of a corporation. He blackmails people offering them scraps from the table of his last meal as if they should be thankful. How on gods earth did America vote this clown as it's leader. Putin has spent 3 years trying to get into Kiev and in a few weeks has managed to get into the Oval office of the Whitehouse. I sit here in the UK watching what is going on in America like many around the world cringing and at the same time laughing at how such a scumbag could achieve what he has done. Trump and his arse licking lapdog are making a laughing stock of the US and you seem helpless to stop the shitshow that is coming your way. I feel for you and hope his stupidity will lead to a very quick exit for the now most famous clown in the world.

It's not about immigration or fentanyl. This is about following direction from putin. He has divided the people within our country and now separated us from our allies. He has removed trusted anerican press from the white house briefings replacing them with the government run russian media. We are the united states of russia. Get your vodka here

This is very simple.Trump puts Canada and Mexico into a ressioun.The US will fallow shortly after.You want this?

I apologize, Canada! I didn't vote for him, and I damn sure don't like what he's doing!\n\nDo what you need to do to protect yourself! I'm a US citizen, but I fully support you!

We do not need any Canadian products. Tariffs will work, we have natural resources gas, oil, minerals. do not need you. Critical minerals. that's a joke. We have all the fertilizer we need. So I am not sure what he is talking about. Its time to bring the auto makers home, Its time to bring all our jobs back home. The canadians are tired of him as well and he is out in October and the conservative party will win just like in the US. People are tired of the left agenda.
