As an American I say good for Canada and anyone else who sanctions the us! Let Trump FAFO

Canada, please hit trump with everything that you have.

When the House of Cards begins to fall, New Zealand will stand with Canada.

Bye bye Canada.

I am Irish and Ireland is with you Canada!????

I admire you Prime Minister Trudeau Canada must be so proud of you. It’s so sad for America that this is happening.

There's many reasons not to like Trudeau up here in Canada, many of which are the reason he'll (rightfully) no longer be the PM next week. As a conservative I hated him for SNC-Lavalin (among other scandals), and the fact that his inexperience with the economy Harper left him is probably part of why this trade war is going to hurt more than it could have, and the fact that he's often been kind of a phony more concerned with looking and sounding good for the press cameras. Not this time. Nothing phony here; I've got to give credit to him for capturing the national mood pretty much perfectly with this speech. Good on him. \n\nAnd congratulations as well to Donald for pretty much handing the Liberals their best shot at a fourth term, too. What an absolute idiot. Normally I'd turn my nose up at having to vote Liberal, but I am so, so sick of the brand of empty populism Trump stands for that it looks like that's what I'm gonna be doing come election time.

solidarity with the people of the US and Canada from México... we in México know its not the people at fault.

YOU GO, CANADA

For all of you GO Canada people. The majority of Canadians oppose what our government is doing. This man has destroyed our economy and done everything he could to stop international trade of LNG and oil by shutting down all pipeline and LNG PROJECTS WE HATE THIS MAN. It is not Trump BAD it is everything Trudeau did above and more that killed us. these Tariffs would mean nothing to us if he hadn’t fiscally destroyed us. We are getting what we deserve. Unfortunately it will lead to destitution of many people. I can’t wait to see his party gone. We are running out of time.

100b to us is barely .4% of our economy. It's nothing, and we put tariffs on the equivalent of almost 20% of their economy. Does Canada know how to do basic math?

The speech was great. Honestly, I am appalled. Be strong, Canadians. Tariffs of 25 percent are soon to be implemented in Europe as well. From Sweden, standing with Canada

Everybody says they are the friend of the US, until it's time to be fair. To the world, stop being a bunch of children... or don't. But if not, be prepared to suck it up. Be ready to back up your BS. Don't tell us what our government is doing to us, pay attention to what you are doing to us... and have been since the 1950s. Let us be crystal clear, you Canada, along with Europe and others have been enjoying your subsidized lifestyles off our backs. We are done and finally someone in the White House is hearing us. I don't agree with everything he says and does, but I agree with him that this foolishness needs to stop. Stop now. To Trudeau, Buckel up butter cup, put your blackface on and find yourself a cute little dress, maybe entertainment can be the way for you to go. Talk to you in a few years, let's see how this all works out for you. To Canadian's, Last Chance, come be number 51, before the Russia and China split you down the middle like a roast pig. Send your 250 troops to Ukraine, let's see what you and 2000 Europeans can do after you piss off the Russians... because you are right about one thing, they are led by an evil man, who's word is useless and who doesn't give a rat's butt who dies for his glory.... even if it's you and your children. No worries, you don't need those nasty Americans south of the great white north, your good all on your own. I Just sent Trump another $50. Not going to change the world, but it will let him know we are behind him, no matter what the Libs of the world have to say about it.

As an American I am SO HAPPY you are standing up to this craziness! Don’t back down!! And those who voted for this in the US will feel what they have done. Keep going Canada ??

Aside from this being how a world leader should speak & act, everything Prime Minister Trudeau spoke about is true. I'm American so idk the ins & outs of why he resigned but from here he's doing Canada ?? proud. Its gut wrenching that us Americans are stuck with the ? oompa loompa we have sitting in the Oval office. Trump has not only stomped all over our constitution, he's broken several laws along the way.

Belgium stands with Canada and Mexico! Fk Trump! We also stand with every NON Maga american! May the rest of m' go down!

Only some of America wants this. The rest of us think Donny and Elon are crazy. ❤? Hang in there! Remember many of us love you Canada!

Canada work with Europe please! We want people with principles as our partners.

I wonder if the millions of Americans who voted for this sick man, Trump, hold the same hostile views toward Canada and Mexico.

We support Canada from Spain.There is no winner on trade war .

Man, this is kinda scary. I would never say anything like this but Canada is our closest ally.

Trudeau cares more about me and my fellow Americans than Trump does!! Trump needs to take a page (maybe an encyclopedia set) on leadership from Trudeau! Notice that he is doing all he can to protect Canadian jobs and people during this trade while Trump is firing hundreds of thousands of American workers, causing the layoffs of more, and doesn't give a hoot about tanking the economy! On behalf of those who did not vote for Trump thank you Canada and Trudeau. I am sorry .

I so hope whoever replaces Trudeau will follow his lead in this movement. Trump doesn't want to lead America, he wants to dictate it. And he wants to take over Canada in the process.

Watch the American's blaming Canada now.

My son's great grandfather was born in Canada. There are people in Canada that are cousins.

We should just take over Canada!

The response of Trump will be : Trudeau is a nasty man ! \nTrump is unable to complete a sentence ! Peace for our ailles Canada from France ?

We love Canada

As.an American, Canada I support you. Trump's an absolute idiot

Strand our ground,Canada.

Canada's mistake was listening to the US the first time. The US doesnt do enough to protect its people from drugs smuggled north and yet it blames its neighbors non-stop.

All the naysayers of the USA, move to Ukraine or Canada! Bye

Go Canada. We have lunacy and insanity here in the US. Trump is a traitor.

well done Canada, hope Europe will do the samme at once. everyone should stand up to bullies

Canada's response to America's tariffs under Trudeau is a masterclass in balancing diplomacy with pragmatism. While the U.S. pursues a protectionist agenda, Canada stands resilient, leveraging strategic countermeasures and asserting its sovereignty. Trudeau's approach is not just about retaliating in kind; it’s a nuanced display of commitment to fair trade and a reminder that economic interdependence cannot be taken for granted. In a world where global relations are increasingly volatile, Canada’s measured response signals both defiance and cooperation, leaving the door open for a future where both nations can find common ground amidst the tension.

The only they is Trump and the dumbasshats that voted him in office. Now when our vehicles cost going up, fuel, grocery, utilities. Basically everything we rely on because of this orange peel that is good because Elon bought him. Then the asshats will cry foul. Y’all voted him in office because he promised you cheaper eggs. Well a basic dozen of eggs is $7 and a ends about to be paying that for fuel, not to mention many of our states electricity is out of Canada.

The PM used harsh language? Donald calling him a governor is harsh, saying Canada does have a right to exist is harsh. The PM is being polite.

Justin Trudeau is hated by most Canadian folk.\nTrudeau needs to leave the stage, WOKE POLITICS is finished. \nAmerica will happily work with Canada ?? but not Trudeau.

The people commenting on here should move to Canada and make it better than the USA. (Good luck)

Thank you Canada

Oh, these comments are just hilarious.\nI've not seen one comment in disagreement of the speech you just made. What happened to all of them? Someone sorted and took them all down to pretend like every single person that commented was standing behind Canada. Hilarious. Of course we know this will be tough. You do what you have to do and USA will do what USA has to do. As a US citizen I have NEVER felt welcome crossing your border legally to visit while on vacation. You Trudeau are a joke.

An other FACT ; don' t get FOOLED !!! : Liberals parti was about to LOOSE the Governance of Canada... BUT this "WAR" again President Trump was what the LIBERALS WANT !!!! Because now some stupids peoples have started to think the LIBERALS are now our "SAVIOR"... Witch is the VERY OPPOSITE of the TRUTH ... Justin Trudeau have to go HOME ...

GO Canada. GO China. GO Mexico. Bring America to its knees. Let Trump know that you will not be bullied. Let Americans freeze, starve, and crawl in the streets. We don't want Trump. He is destroying our country. Biden was bad, but Trump is awful.

If I was the President of the United States I would give what voters want cut off Canada.

Let’s not forget all Trump asked Canada to do was to secure the US/Canadian boarder.

Trudeau is extremely impressive in government actions and in communicating as simply as possible to the people of USA, to explain what is happening and to implore that they pressurise their rotten Trump government. This is an attack on a very friendly government with 25% tariffs on everything but just 10% on China?? This is an attack to try to destabilise Canada to help in taking the country over. It won't work and everyone will suffer or lose.

its like americans forget canada are the reason for the geneava convention...

I am so proud of Mr. TRUDEAU, I am an American and retired veteran and so sick of our Administration doing this to Canada and Mexico. I served with some great Canadians from NATO BACK IN 1998-2000. IT’s so sad to see this happening today.

Since we here in the USA created this mess and can't seem to deal with the orange buffoon and his narcissistic nonsense, I think it is up to Canada and Mexico and Europe to try reigning him in somehow. I don't think they can succeed, but we can hope. We're barely 6 weeks into this. It's going to be a long 4 years.

Full support to canadian people but not these 3 jokers. what trump is doing is not good, even india is not acting like this when bangladesh is operating like a rabid dog, however what real canadians should understand is that their country's current situation is because of this 3 jokers. Canada should appoint leaders that has atleast some basic understanding of geopolitics. Look at india right after meeting trump last week it has signed several deals with the EU, and even finalizing FTA with it by the end of this year. There was suppose to be a FTA with canada aswell but these jokers supported criminal illegals from india which india wanted back to face justice but these jokers defended those guys and even threatened indian diplomats, so even now you guys have time, exercise your democratic power and throw these three boogers and illegals out of your county. And plese don't overuse marijuana before the election day because its a very important day for you guys.. you guys need to be atleast 60% concious when you cast your vote, because i fear some of you might vote the wrong person After that enjoy your weed as much as you like. BEST of luck my canadian friends?
