How is this gonna hurt Americans is he stupid really, he more scared hurting then we are and also maybe they need to fix the bs of if you have a dui in usa and did your time , they can recharge yoi with it there and thats stupid , Canada get your crap right

Goodness gracious this is insane why is President Trump acting like toddler having bad tantrums even if this gets resolved it will leave sour taste in Canadian and likewise American

American here. I am ashamed. I hate that we leave good people behind, crap all over every country and our relationships. It’s embarrassing. I support Trump for the border but that’s all I have agreed with. Say goodbye to the USD as the world trade currency. Get ready for isolation guys we are pissing everyone away down stream. To the EU protect Ukraine it’s the majority of our fault and I am sorry but don’t let these clowns win. EU needs an army, 30% maybe 40 of every European country. I would even say 50. Good luck and again sorry we are dumbasses.

Think about this a minute. Trump invokes a tariff and the stock market drops. The rich buy up all this stock, while a middle class and poor suffer. He’ll get what he wants and pull the tariffs and stocks will rise, making him and his friends richer at the expense of all the hard working Canadians and Americans. Food for thought

As a Canadian, I can assure you CNN and all Americans, Canada will not back down. Remember this pain your country will feel is not what Canadians want, but our response to your President’s stupidity and apparent new support for our mutual enemy Russia. Get you country back. You are sliding into fascism and authoritarianism. We hope you right your ship.

There are a few thousand american military bases around the world. Once you end alliances, they are gone. USAs is gonna have a bad time deploying their troops anywhere outside florida. Its a logistical question. Aint no friends around to solve it either apart from russia. Im just gonna say it America is Russia. Lets put it even better Russia owns america. America is trump wearing a latex harness, and putin is leading him towards the bed to get pissed on by russian prostitutes. ( I love russian prostitutes myself, but they should not be part of politics is all im saying)

Europe will do the same on american products, If european goods get taxed (and they will..). I guess, the majority of MAGA heads have absolute no clue, what that does to their consumer prizes....

Awh!! Look what Donnie the clown did for you Americans!! Hopefully you’re happy for what you voted for because you’re getting exactly what you deserved maybe try listening or try thinking outside of the box!! being a Democrat or even a Republican doesn’t do shit for you as you can clearly see

Canada ? ? We would love to hafe you as a member of EU. And we can support one and other to get through this nightmare. I think the American values are lost. and there politic system is falling, when one guy can get this powerful and nobody can stop him. just seen from a Danish point of view.

Don't worry American people they want it this problem they course the trump they want to be America great again and don't worry what is happening any American people you put your tax more than the trump number one is cut out the electric America after trump giving you mines - 200 tax cut if stop to minerals for air force stop to farmers Fortalice you can get another 200 percent tax cut is well dont think what the Americans thinking think first your own people nothing else ???

I have never been so embarrassed to be an American. Its heart breaking that we allowed this to happen even with all the warning signs. I have protested, attended town halls, emsiled all my state representatives and every attempt can only have power if the people we elected go to bat for us. They are not doing so. Americans who know this is absolutely unacceptable will scream as loud as we can to stop this dictator but we need to help of the higher ups. Please...for the love of God, get this man out of the seat of power until it is too late. Maybe it already is.

Trump is a treat from world stability. American people, especially Democrats should demonstrate ad do pressure. It is awful and disgusting to see the US getting along with Russia and despite its historic European allies and nice Canadian neighbors.

Iam so sorry about this Canadians. This is just bully shit. Americans love you guys .we stand with you all. We know are lives will get worse before it gets better for us not because of Canada.its because the orange man.?

Ask yourself what happens when Americans can't get oil and gas from Canada? Are they going to use their own reserves.....no. But guess who else has oil and gas? Russia. Who bailed out Trump every time his businesses failed.....Russia. Trump has to pay back Russia for all the times they bailed him out. Watch and see if he tries to make a trade deal with Russia.

It's difficult, I mean Canadians' disgust, insult and anger at all of these completely unwarranted tariffs is not directed at the American people, it's at the crass, unhinged baffoon Trump who has enacted them, and yet (and this is where it gets difficult) over half of you voted for this obscene idiot as your president! How it is that there would ever been more than a dozen people who would vote for Trump is beyond me; he is NOT an honorable person and has not one redeeming quality. He is a vile, snorting pig, and no, I'm not insulting him, I'm describing him. He has to go.

Paula Newton. Maybe walk back your words, this isn't anti-Americanism, that's extremely offensive to the situation. This is about one man and his cult \n\nAlthough there is the question why Americans are still letting this issue persist. When are you going to get off your asses and deal with your s***. You know what I'm saying

If Canada,Mexico ,China and EU get together say F USA we’re real get F . many Americans will lost the job become homeless cause by one man .

I live in northern MN by the Canadian national railway, I get stopped by these trains for 20-30 minutes daily, they are loaded with every type of goods, mostly chinese shipping containers! They go south full and north empty! Stand strong real Americans, there is nothing to fear but fear itself broadcast by globalist!

American standing with Canada. We will get through together

Proud Canadian here. So, we all know, including the Americans, that trump is a moron. In my books, he is the economic equivalent of Hitler, and no different from Putin. But my question is, how do you Americans who voted for this bully, feel now? I get it, a lot of American are against what he is doing. But the majority of you voted him in.

I AM CANADIAN WE LOVE AND GET ALONG WITH ARE AMERICAN FRIENDS BUT YOUR LEADER MUSK SORRY I MEAN TRUMP ARE THE BAD GUYS TRUMP WILL LIE TO JUST TO SAVE HIS SOUL FOR 8 YEARS TRUMP HAS DONE NOTHING BUT LIE TO YOU AND THE WORLD FOR SOME REASON MANY AMERICANS LISTEN AND BELIEVE TRUMP MOSTLY MAGA VOTERS EVERY BODY WILL PAY THE PRICE BUT NOT TRUMP MUSK AND ALL THERE RICH FRIENDS THEY ONLY WANT TO CONTROL EVERY THING TRUMP IS ONLY ABOUT MONEY THATS ALL HE WANTS THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE WORLD TO STAND UP TO TRUMP AND THE GOP, TO THE GOP IF YOU ARE AFRAID OF TRUMP QUIT

It’s so funny the excuse that Trump uses to justify his actions against allies such as Canada when in reality there is far more drugs going from USA to Canada than there is the other way around. This has never been about drugs or anything other than a personal financial gain for Trump and his own buddies like Putin. It’s a shame innocent people are caught in the middle but America did vote for him so hopefully eyes will start to open to the truth when it finally starts affecting American pockets directly as unfortunately that’s the only way you can get through to most of those kinds of people.

And why is this happening now, simple. This is what Putin ordered trump to do, and all while they flee Americans. Trump, Elon and all those greedy folks who you see every day in the news. Our congress is so afraid to lose their positions. This will get very bad before it gets good. So hang on folks something big is coming.

Perhaps America's president should look at the programs Canada implements and make American a great place to live again, and the American people would not be enticed to take Fentanyl to get through the miserable lives some have to deal with on a daily basis!

What a speech! How do we get someone intelligent like this in office instead of a blathering orange idiot? My heart goes out for Ukraine and all the countries caught up in this mess. For the first time, I can say with absolute certainty that I am embarrassed to be an American

He did exactly what I thought he was going to do the tariffs are targeting American farmers and food production we sell America 80 percent of our potash. I mean buckle up America your food is about to get a lot more expensive from the moment it starts growing till you buy it.

Americans will pay globally for their clown president. Vote for trash, you get trash to clean up.

Just understand Americans you voted in a celebrity as your president you all knew he had no background for the job you all have souled your souls you have strayed away from God you all want the easy way out the shortcuts you all thought that voting him in would make everything easier would cut cost on everything but you we're wrong because God himself will not let you eacape your sins no matter how far you try to run no matter who you think you can bring in to get shortcuts God will not allow and its sad because trump wont hurt for this or pay for it no but the hard working Americans the ones who make this country Go not trump or any of his friends and all of those who believe in him and his agenda who will not be in heaven Amen

So, first and foremost WE DON’T CARE ABOUT FACTS. What Dear Leader what’s, Dear Leader gets. And Americans will happily suffer.

Is there no one at CNN who can translate French? Really? I'm American, and I'm hoping Trudeau announces that he's making trade deals with Europe (and even China) that cut us out. Betraying our allies should never be incentvised. I'm even hoping they cut off our oil, which WILL jack gas prices, since our refineries in the Midwest are only deisgned to process Canadian crude. And the truth is that the reason for the tariffs is that Trump has direct control over them, and can probably have Elon do something with the revenue that couldn't be done with normal taxes. We're all getting screwed here.

It’s refreshing to see world leaders speaking out against this administration. Now it’s time for Americans to get with the program and speak truth to power

LOL... That fool (Trudeau) has NOTHING Americans want or need. America has more oil than ANY country in the WORLD....\nCanada NEEDS America! FACT! NEVER FOR GET THAT you Canadian people!

Good luck to the real Americans standing against tyranny and the billionaire nazi mafia, Canada stands with you, but we have to get away from the insanity. good bye from your northern neighbours.

Who will be an American hero and get rid of Trump for good?

???Kudos and well done Great Justin Trudeau✊ for Educating the dum dummer so called American Garbage President. Donald Trump is too Gramps and Stupid in the Brain ? to be a Leader of any Nation or President of any Nation. Is a Shame that those Americans that fall for all his lies and Propaganda to get him elected are bunch of BOZOS, because they are the one to face the dyer consequences.

Satanic Evil Trump not a republican he stole this party like he stole the election you know that he's a convicted felon , he's a child molester with Jeffrey Epstein , the man that love grabbing women by the p---- , cult leader using religious to get these corrupted religious mega follower's to back him up and Putin's little puppet , humiliating and degrading our friend from Ukraine this list goes on with this American Traitor no more talking take our business to Europe . The America Justice system and Politicians represent the people, who make decisions have turn their backs on us and even their own people in the USA push to have Elon Musk Canadian birth right remove from our great country Canada . Elon not worthy to be even call a Canadian . Oh no we can't forget dear old JD Vance who speaks against gay right and he worn little girl clothes in high school and still today wear makeup around his eyes. And the mega Christian followers , call them leaders sent by God they better start reading their holy bible cause it all written in the holy book..

10:22 anti-americanism sounded more like he's Pro Canadian. But this is what you get with corporate conservative media.

americans need to get rid of the orange buffoon. everybody is becoming fed up with the US

You mention that Americans are 30% more expensive than Canadians but you dont mention that the US is far more unequal with a Gini coefficient of 0.41 vs 0.35 in Canada. Now there is also a known issue with using GDP data to calculate productivity and that is that in sme countries the labor of GDP is much lower than in others. You then end up with Irish productivity being the second highest in the world only because most large US corporations operating in the EU register there to pay lower taxes but most of that revenue is just on paper for Ireland. or with Guyana whose oil and mining revenue makes it productivity equal to that of the US. Maybe that is the case, but is it? and if so why is the average wage in Guyana so much lower? so choosing only one specific stat can make any point of view seem true. you have to look at the bigger picture.\nnow the issue is Canada has been getting more unequal but it is still much better than the US. so what it means is that the higher worker productivity in the US benefits corporations and billionaires far more than it benefits the average American. now if we compare cost of living say between NYC and Toronto:\nCost of Living in Toronto is 37.5% lower than in New York, NY (without rent) \nCost of Living Including Rent in Toronto is 47.1% lower than in New York, NY \nRent Prices in Toronto are 59.2% lower than in New York, NY \nRestaurant Prices in Toronto are 34.5% lower than in New York, NY \nGroceries Prices in Toronto are 33.0% lower than in New York, NY \nLocal Purchasing Power in Toronto is 7.2% higher than in New York, NY \nand this is similar when comparing almost all large Canadian cities with a comparable US one. And whilst housing and NIMBYIsm is real issue you have very similar issues in the US which also has almost no mix zoning. But throw in safety nets and go ask Canadians if they want to change for the US system. I doubt most will. Sure some want things to change but some assuming everyone wants an ultra capitalistic society. most are ok with less growth ut better balanced growth (the exact opposite of the boom and bust US model)

All joking aside, Canada has been able to form a symbiotic relationship of mutual benefit with the United States since even before NAFTA 1. But.......... right now it is almost like a 51st state and I do not mean that in a joking way. US states are always competing with each other, but what prevents things like, oh say the American Civil war from happening is the Federal apparatus keeps them in line for the good of the empire as a whole. \n\n If Canada is like a 51st state, then it is competing with the other 50 states in a way that all 50 of them are going to get upset about. So either the states complain, or you treat Canada as an economic competitor. Mexico being behind the United States and Canada is what makes it a good candidate for a symbiotic relationship. For all its problems, Mexico has a Christian population (with some indigenous traits) that goes well with America. Their nations different economic status means we can support them and they can support us doing different things for countries of different development stages.\n\nCanada being so similar to the United States will want that as well and will never outbid the United States. Again this is seen as a hostile economic competitor. \n\nIts not Canada or Americas fault. After 2007 and the lies about fanny and Freddie, leman bros, mortgage backed security's, and a cash shortage that was not real. How was it real if the offshore exchanges did nothing? 2007 was not financial in origin it was our global monetary system seizing up. To say Wall Street greed and MBSs did it would be like saying a single drop of cement turned the ocean to cement.\n\nBut something did. Something turned the market from liquid to concrete, it happened in France decades before......\nFinancially packaged items could no longer be priced or traded.

As a Canadian, I am more afraid of the people than their healthcare system. And I am chronically ill and would be homeless in America. You seem pretty cool, but living in a place where children have to train for school shootings. I heard they cant even wear light up shoes for their own saftey. Just their hate of immigrants and people in general. Its not the first time that I have heard an American say they want to shoot down all the aliens. Also, wtf! We know you live in America. You dont need to have a flag every 2 meters. ????? even on your clothes. We get it! You're American! I feel like you guys get super offended by everything.

American GDP per capita is lopsided by tech giants that bring money from all over the world but employ small numbers compared to other industries. Take that out its just Russia. If the USA doctors charged 200k for surgey, the gdp went up 200k but the patient is now bankrupt. \n\nCanada messed up with immigration and handing out study permits. There was never a need for low skills foreign workers and diplomas that taught zero skills to international students. The root cause the crony capitalism that drives down wages and workers quality of life. Nothing will change until workers get back power they had in 50s and 60s.

This is what the democratic administration funds with American taxpayers' money it's a fact no speculation. And there still acting like it's no big deal ant they will do what they want . And for thoes taking advantage of what is happening in America today to launch there own agenda within the United States . Don't do it this mess will eventually get cleaned up and then all the focus will be on you . Think about it because there are a whole lot of WHITE people that are not living very well either White , Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, all races. Stop crying ....

Those are actual native Americans. Europeans need to get the fck out of here. It’s not their lands. It belongs to the people you are falsely arresting. They have American bloodline.

In one of your videos…you mentioned that Chilean robbers in your country were more than likely getting rid of their “merchadise”…in an area where they sell jewlery, and then you essentially blamed the Chilean Robbers as though, the ones buying the products were almos the victims of those robbers, let me tell you that I totally disagree with your point of view, it is wrong to steal, but the ones buying the products, were also criminals. Or are you people, starting to behave like many countries that blame the Americans, for bribing corrupt politicians and hence the poverty in many countries around the world. IN OTHER WORDS, YOU ARE BLAMING OTHERS INSTEAD OF YOURSELF…..HOW LOW HAVE YOU PEOPLE FALLEN !!!...AMAZING, YOUR FOREBEARS, MUST BE TOSSING AND TURNING IN THEIR GRAVES IN DISCUSS. If those Chileans are robbing AND YOU PEOPLE ARE BUYING….WHOSE FAUTL IS IT FOR BUYING “HOT STAFF”?....IT IS YOURS AND DON’T BLAME OTHERS, THE ROBBERS ARE AS MUCH CRIMINALS AS WHAT YOU PEOPLE ARE…THAT SIMPLE….SO, START BY GETTING REAL !!!...

I am sick of seeing this reporter! She is not a American. We voted...and she does not get it! If you put down our President.......your not wanted!

Where do you think the DISEASES we AMERICANS are getting comes from. ILLEGAL ALIENS.

Average American resident who lives on food stamps to get daily nutrition.

Canada is where lot's of Americans went to keep from getting drafted into the war maybe some stayed and didn't come back to America until now
