I am an American. I stand with Canada. May God bless Canada.??

I personally think Trump is after Canada to become part of the US. So, he's making stuff up to make the countries leadership look stupid. He thinks his tariffs will cause great financial destruction in such a way that Canada will fall apart, and then he will swoop in and grab her up. His greedy nubby hands want what he doesn't have. I can't wait for these four years to pass.

Why they never talk about the rising amount of guns coming from the US in Canada. Guns that we don't want. According to Donald Duck we should protect the border for US for the fentanyl but is the US is going to protect the border of Canada against the illegal gun market that US is the source of.

This guy is an idiot and I’m sorry Canada that you have them as your Prime Minister say what you want about Trump. This guy is definitely a disgrace with no backbone of his own. He just looks like a sad, pathetic man. Why would you want him running your country he looks weak. He speaks weak. All he’s gonna do is hurt your country.

Yes, innocent US citizens r going to suffer from our sick dictators decisions but I'm glad Trudeau is correctly retaliating. ?I'm sorry I don't hav dual citizenship because I would move to Canada for at least 4yrs ?

Trudeau never once mentioned how popular he is or how those before him were clueless or how disrespectful others are, he never mentioned that other countries have been taking Canada for a ride. This is the art of the deal.

Would love to live in canada? what a lovely united country!\n??

Sounds like Canada had a true plan to work on border crossings and drug problem, while Trump wants to just attack and make up lies about criminals and numbers.

We *all* need to wake up that the US has, plain and simply, become a completely unreliable partner. With allies like these, nobody needs enemies. Hopefully Europe, Canada, Mexico and Ukraine can somehow band together to stand against this nonsense, because bowing to the trump administration will only embolden them to demand even more and blackmail each of us individually into submission. Yes, it'll be tough - but always think of what Ukraine has gone through, it's an easy stand for us.

So this means all trade with Canada is equal ? Do we both tax the products coming in the same amount ?

Very strange what Trump is doing. 1. Sympathize with Putin. 2. Isolating Canada 3. Retrating USA troope from Europe...USA i think Trump want's to isolate you and make you go to war. Get him OUT !!!!

Canada we stand with you ...from a Israeli South African...we love you

Canada instead of retaliating should focus on its own economy, reduce taxes and reduce bureaucracy. Retaliation will only make life for Canadians harder and only benefit the government (more tax) which they will waste like always.

The crazy MAGA cult followers at my job will say it's my company that's rising prices and it'll be their fault. This is how delusional my co workers are ? nooooooo it's trumps fault!!!! But they worship him. He can do anything and get away with it it's crazy to me. And we Americans have it good!!! I have no idea what these whites guys with big trucks and money in the bank are crying about!!! I make 19 an hour and have it good. How do these people not have it good who makes more than me?? They Blame Canada, Ukraine and the migrants for hardship?? What hardship?,!!!! And if they do have it rough it's their fault!!! Because if a guy like me has everything he needs and is happy how are these crazy maga people not happy who makes more then me?

Hopefully Trump doubles/triples down. Canada is like that replaceable employee who thinks they have leverage. Meanwhile they’ve been underperforming and stealing from the company. Good riddance!

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a “made in Canada” tag?? yeah the 2% imports you guys give us isn’t gonna been seen at all

what a stupid FROG....trade war? seriously...and say align with Putin.FUCK CANADA

Canada has way more to lose than the USA. He’s twisting the narrative. Look it up

Preach Justin!! F the clown!\nKeep your American guns out of Canada & Mexico, how about that?!

The collaboration of all political parties rallying together in Canada sounds more united than the states. The United Country of Canada sounds better!

Canada needs a functioning federal government and parliament, not a liberal PM on the way out, who ruinned Canada for 10 years..his statements are no help to anyone, short of a brain washed liberal crowed..

Canada will have to explain to convicted felon Donald Trump what fertilizer is, among other things. But it also needs to understand that Donald Trump wanted Canada to be the 51st state because he has already made the United States Russia’s 47th oblast, and he wants to give Putin control of ALL of the real estate around the north Polar Sea. That’s also why Trump wants Greenland.

F Canada!

Me, one of the American people, in answer to your stupid assertions, should point out that the issue at hand is not one of economics but, we are against illegal immigrants and deadly drugs being smuggled from Canada into the United States. America has, for generations, supported the Canadian economy via a false and favorable acceptance of the Canadian dollar. Americans have no issue with the Canadian people, we like them. I view the despicable liberals controlling Canadian policy, oppressing Canadians, as a bole on Canada,s back side. Turdrow sucks.

As a Brazilian, I support Canada by boycotting all US products. We have to stand up to the big bully.

Trudeau and the country Canada are also been gifted and lied to by Donald Trump all the wonderful things that he said that he and Donald did together we’re all self-serving for Donald. He never has any intention to keeping allies happy that chainsaw that they broke out on the world stage is coming for everybody. But guess what we’re not gonna stand for it. They thought they were pandering this to a bunch of sleeping idiots but we’re awake and we have been awake. What a decent and humanitarian president going to figure out how he can help Canadian businesses whether this storm while Americans are left in the dust with their cabinet of curiosities screwing them over with no way to survive. I can already hear Trump’s read to the media. Canada has not done enough on the final on fentanyl they haven’t done enough. I told them they had to do XYNZ and they haven’t done enough. He’ll lie to everybody all over again, like every day of his life, the biggest liar.

I'm American, I'm cheering for Canada. Our government has broken its word to yours. I do not believe that Trump's actions represent the wishes of most Americans but many of them DID vote for him (and the utterly spineless Congressional Republicanswho enable him) and all of us are going to pay the price, quite literally.

I'm canadian here in Canada - most of us despise trudeau and are struggling to survive under his high tax regime. We want trudeau to sit down and shut up and stop robbing us Canadians of a living and of our election. We have wanted an election for months now. He has denied us that.

a 1.3 billion dollar waste of money for extra border security. We did this to appease the unappeasable. He never intended to stop the tariffs, he just wanted us to spend out money. He's trying to bankrupt Canada. STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY ON TRUMPS DESIGNS. Remember WE the public are paying for this, THEY (our governments/the Upper Class) are benefiting. As Trump crashes the markets, who do you think is buying it up, think about it.

Canada, you really don't want to be in a trade war with the US.

Does he think canada likes him??

Agree with Trudeau here, and as a Canadian conservative, that’s not something I say easily. But let’s get real here. Trump is NOT a smart guy. He has cratered most businesses he’s started, he has no understanding of economics whatsoever and he speaks like a five-year old. Conversely, here in Canada and around the world (including many in the US who are voicing heir support here) we have A LOT of smart people and an enormous amount of good will, and we will persevere and overcome. Bring it MAGA!

Canada ?? the new free world heroes

Donald Dump is a dumpster fire. He and JD are complete idiots, Canada doesn't allow drugs into US, LMFAO. They have single handedly ruined of decades of partnership and friendship, gone for ever in just a few weeks! We might be small, but mighty, unfortunately it will be everyday Americans who will feel the pain. Millions less trips to USA from Canadians, BuyCanadian, all US alcohol no longer available throughout Canada, AND Gov'ts not allow US companies to bid on procurement. 100's of Billions will be lost to everyday Americans, and remember you have Donny and JD for it all!

Actually, what would be more of an idea .. US states .. joining Canada .. to get away from trump .. just saying

We love you Canada. we are so sorry we can't stand him either. Give us a minute. We will get him out of the office

This situation is unbelievable. Russia has been threatening to devastate Germany, and meanwhile, we find ourselves in conflict with Canada, a country that has always been a great friend and neighbor. Putin is simply waiting for the U.S. to withdraw from NATO, and he won’t hesitate to act once that happens. China will likely invade Taiwan amidst all this turmoil. Our entire government, regardless of political party, has failed the American people. Stocks are plummeting this morning, and energy costs are rising. How does any of this benefit anyone?

This is Trump killing the stock so he can buy low and sell high IF he leaves office. The only president to not divest and place assets in holdings. He plans to make money.\nAnd if Polievre wins elections, he is a Trumpster, and would likely toss Canada over as the 51st state.

I am a Trinbagonian?? all the way in the Caribbean and I stand with Canada❤But guess what,the American people voted for that?Then again,Biden or Kamala Harris wasn't a better pick either?

The first CNN correspondent Paula’s toxic reframing of what the Prime Minister just eloquently shared with strength and respect is appalling. Infusing the term ‘anti-Americanism’ is 100% irresponsible journalism and incorrect on all levels. Listen to her manipulative dishonest expose at 10:15…\nThen, same dishonest propaganda from Alayna at 14:45… \n\nThe humans responsible for poor relations globally are people like Paula, Alayna, and everyone else from the far right which are unfortunately employed on purpose by the for propaganda and destructive political agendas. Shame on these unprofessionals and shame on imbecile 47 indefinitely for the deplorable lack of character and diplomacy, and absence of leadership that would otherwise be in place in order to serve the people. Trump is causing harm to his own country on all levels. \n\nTrudeau and Canada continue to be terrific neighbors with the US and care for our American friends, coworkers and families. The morons sitting in the White House attempting to bully long-standing allies globally are the only jerks creating relational fractures internationally. \n\nFrom, ??

No one in Canada wants this man in Canadas office \n\nI back Donald 1000000%

Canada soyboy who cares really what you have to say , he must be pregnant!

We support you Canada ❤

The British are with you Canada.

The point is to weaken Canada. No one can convince me that THAT is not also part of Putin's long-term goals. Russia is on our northern border, and therefore a threat to Canada. Trump is wholly and fully with Putin.

Sigh....Justin doesn't represent Canada...he's like a parasite you can't get rid of.

Up Canada ❤❤❤❤❤

does trudeau really think he gets to criticize another nations economy? living in Canada is a financial nightmare. Canada will regret not complying. Canada is about to become unlivable. bye bye Canada. hello 51st state of the union

as an american i wish you luck canada and trudeau. i despise donald trump.

Has everyone forgot that during Trumps first term HE signed the biggest and best trade deal that anyone’s ever seen ( in his words ) with Mexico and Canada? He sat right in front of cameras and did it , and as usual showed off his fantastic signature. THAT trade deal was NEVER changed, even thru the last 4 years administration. But all of a sudden Trump walks in mouthing about it, blaming everyone else for it, and ready to change things? Why? What’s the issue? Let me guess… does he not remember doing that either?
