Seeing this makes me want to re-elect Trudeau to office. He's really done a lot of things right lately.

1930s trade war was ineffective. The importance of electing economist as leader

????? A dumfuq elected by dumerfuqs ♨?+?

So many of us did not vote for Trump or agree with his tactics. The election was stolen. Hopefully this will come out soon and end this madness.

As an American, I am so angry and disgusted with how our government here has put millions of American’s livelihood at mind blowing risk and their disrespect to many countries where we have built relationships with for decades and affect the livelihoods of the people of those countries; all to manipulate the markets for billionaires and corrupt criminals. That is what we get when we elect criminals against all warnings given over the last decade.

As an American I am so sorry for the pathetic acts of that man who isn't my president. He has the job and he's fucking it up properly. I am sorry. We are sorry. We will make up for this in the future and history will hold the asshole responsible. Again I'm sorry. We don't want this. They don't listen and our elected representatives are underpowered and weak to fix things.\n\nAre you guys taking American political refugees yet? I'm ready to come north.

Its always tuff with u in office Trudeau.. call a election now

No it is NOT hard to believe this is going on. When you elect a criminal who floats the rule of law and the Constitution, this is exactly what you should expect. I don't believe for one instant that the politicians in the Republican party and a good number in the Democrat party did not see this coming, althpugh the Republicans who anticipated it wanted it and the Democrats didn't.

Stop the Lawless treasonous American dictator and the complicit GOP. We stand with Canada and Our Democratic Allies NOT PUTIN THE MURDERER! Stop the Lawless treasonous dictator and the complicit GOP. They are also working on methods to skew the midterms through more Voter Suppression ?. Write to your senators ask them to get creative. Ask them to implement a special election by the people with majority rule to oust the dictator! Ask them to shut down the government do anything to stop this coup. We cannot wait for the midterms. They will have once again manipulated them by then! Write your senators and Congressmen/Women, THEY MUST ACT NOW!!!

❤❤❤❤❤ I'm sooooo proud of PM Trudeau!!!!! Don't back down to the lying con-man wanna be dictator Trump!!!!!❤\n\nEmbarrassed to be in a country that could elect a Trump and his cronies ?

USA is about to become the true empire of darkness just because you elected the most evil people in power. This is the begining of the end for the US supremacy

Sorry for our neighbour, you elected a wrong president ?❤️

Hey CNN.. Canada hasn't even called their elections yet... maybe only next fall

THANK YOU CANADA! Some Americans lack the good judgement NOT to elect a dictator.

Can't Americans realise what an intelligent and well spoken speech looks like, what it should always look like from our leaders?\n\nTrump can't even read a letter from King Charles; he's completely incompetent and unintelligible. They knew this before they elected him. Every speech he ever gave was embarrassingly awful.\n\nAnd now, less than 50 days into his presidency he has sided with Putin, betrayed Zelenski, and attacked all his partners around the world.

Pls elect Tredeau again. He will destroy canada from with in

I voted for Trump and a lot of his policies and actions I agree with, THIS one I do not, Canada did not let in NEARLY as many illegal immigrants as Mexico so it makes no sense why he is punishing them, and he isn't, he just doesn't like Trudeau probably because he was friends or friendly with Biden, same with Zelensky AND Canada wanted to ban products from red states for electing him which is frankly just a stupid policy. \nThis is not hard to figure out, Trump doesn't like Trudeau and Ford, plain and simple......it really is THAT shallow, he is trolling Trudeau by calling them the 51st state and anyone know knows Trump and how he thinks knows that.

In truth Kamala Harris won, but cheating through vote suppression enabled Donald Trump to become president. Even so, had the election not been close, Trump would never have been president again. It's good for Trump voters to feel pain for their choices, the boomerang has come back to hit them in the head. ? They only learn the hard way.

Has everyone forgotten Justin resigned as Prime Minister and has refused to call an election. Justin just stop it, don’t keep Canada hostage. You have had 9 years of corruption and scandals. The Liberals are the problem and destroyed our economy not the US

Sorry Canada, we Americans really had no choices in the last election and most of us stayed home. Democrats were offering nothing and Republicans were offering a rehash of 2016. The rest is history. ?

So proud of you speaking the truth\nI hope Canada , Canadian not upset with the people of our country so called America, we ,the people, American, real country loving Americans, love your country, love, peace, love working together, love safe society, love good education, love affordable healthcare, just like yours, love to see happiness and peaceful in the world. \n\nUnfortunately , we have been trusting the wrong leaders for past decades, more and more damage done to our own lives because of the lying, corrupt government, misguided policies, manipulation, incompetence, corruption, corruption, and more corruption.\nThe people whom we elect, are the ones that stealing from us .\n\nUnless the people wake up, we are misguided to no end.\nWe have no one to blame but ourselves.

Thank you Prime Minister and Canadian citizens. This is what it will take to stand up to bullish behavior, Trump and his Republican cronies get ready for the American People to hold you accountable during next elections.

He’s leaving wth is he even talking about?! They are the entire reason we’re are a global supplier and in this position and Trump can’t stand any of them. GET OUT TRU DOPE.. leave RESIGN! ELECTION NOW .. bunch of soulless criminals.. YOU Justine belong in prison!

Im Canadian and i fucking hate Trudeau can’t wait for the next election

Gangsters currently rule USA, and no doubt USA will pay for electing bad leaders. The people need to do whatever worst earliest to prevent the fall of that great nation

Hi Justin it might be political fight and they putting economy on hostage, why not call for early elections and there is maybe changes on US side no? \nPlease Justin we loved you but if you resigned and call elections maybe we still have good hope

I dont know why the joke of a man got elected. Dump shouldn't even been an option. People picked a dumb president and that dumb president makes dumb decisions,what do you expect. This is what you get trump supporters.

the worst part of this show “commercial war” is that voters in USA are the ones who elected for trump & nazi’s psychopaths!! to feed their love to racism, they are sick & blind…. So does not matter what explanation you have to show how wrong they are, nothing works in sick twisted minds of nazis, they are fed with vile & hate , they don’t care if they look bad, of if they sink their own country with them.

I think it is important to note how much governments complain when they get taxed but how much they also complain they aren't taxing their people even more. Imagine if the people got this upset Everytime they were taxed. And if he wants to fight russia in wwiii he is welcome to go to russia and get it started rather than negotiate peace. America loves life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. That's why we elected trump and LOVE everything he is doing. We wish more loved that too like us.

Sekkle urself. 4 years to stop a war???Maybe them 2 can't do no good in the ? of the past!!! WAR GAMES are almost OVER.??

The scum who elected and support Trump are a stain on humanity.

For me it seems Trump is creating conditions for some sort of a military action against neighbors, probably in time around next presidential elections, and for domestic political reasons.

Americans obviously didn’t understand what tariffs are, didn’t get that it’s an import tax which they must pay on goods and products they buy from Canada, a tax which tRump collects from Americans and uses to pay for tax-cuts for the richest citizens. But one more thing Americans don’t get is that before this fateful day an unofficial boycott against ALL US goods has been growing since tRump insulted Canada’s Prime Minister and threatened Canada’s sovereignty—whereas Canada’s official countervails ( which only kicked-in today )only target certain US goods, not ALL of them like ordinary Canadians are doing in growing numbers right now—in fact, the imposition of tRump’s tariffs today has only made the unofficial boycott bigger and more organized. It’s heartening that so many nations have solicited Canada, offering alternative sources for common US exports to Canada —citrus fruits, pharmaceuticals, and other manufactures, to name a few.\n\nI don’t think Canadians even realize how big this unofficial boycott is getting because it’s growing so fast. I’ve never seen a surge in Canadian patriotism like this. Never in my seven decades —which includes the two Referenda on Quebec separation. And there’s a federal election approaching when all partisans will be one-upping each other in the patriotism department—which manifests in more boycotts of US goods and hospitality services.\n\n Americans should know that the unofficial boycott is more harmful to US exporters than the official targeted countervails because it features immediate and longterm diminishment of Canadian purchases of US goods—all retailers know it’s very hard to recover lost customers once they’ve found alternatives (and the added patriotic effect only makes it worse). Included is diminishment of Canadian visits to the USA. Indeed, the internet is replete with testimonies of Canadian”snow birds” not only forgoing their annual sojourn in the Florida or Arizona sunshine but also of selling their properties there with the parting shot, “I will never vacation in the US again!” Already Mexico has seen its visits from Canadians (who have had a modest presence in Mexico for years) surge to unprecedented levels. I know from much-welcomed temp Mexican construction workers in BC (where I live) that they view Canadians completely differently from our mutual US neighbours—and now that affection is growing like never before. \n\nI’m continually amazed at how uninformed Americans are about tariffs—and misinformed by tRump and his goofy, preposterous, and ridiculous fantasy of world-domination. When tRump uses the lame excuse to implement emergency powers —that Canada is “allowing” (as Vance puts it) fentanyl to “pour into the USA”—it’s tantamount to saying Ukraine started the war with Russia. The man is a tendentious liar and narcissistic megalomaniac. \n\nI have faith that the great nation of the USA will reject tRump’s crazy policies—we all just have to hang on and let the needless suffering for both our nations (and the world with regard strategic alliances) play out until he either relents, is swamped in legal repercussions, is impeached, or otherwise removed from office!\n\nGood luck my American and Ukrainian friends!

Thank you Canada for standing tall, polite, and proud! We love you and please forgive our government and those who elected them in ✌️?✊??????

With Canada here...this is going to hurt US consumers and business more, and with inflation still an issue, this will only make things worse for us here. Where are our elected officials? Where are our Republican Senators and Congressmen? Why are they not speaking up for us the people??\nThis is a sad day for America!! Canada is our friend!!

Great, life in Canada just got more expensive because of this fool. TIME FOR AN ELECTION!

As an American who opposes - STRONGLY opposes - the Trump administration and everything it stands for, I am sorry for what our country's government is doing to the rest of the world but especially to our oldest, closest allies. \n\nThe MAGA faithful will remain faithful even as the prices of virtually everything goes up and up and our economy tanks. They believe what comes out of Trump's mouth no matter what it is, no matter how obvious reality proves him wrong. Those of us who know what Trump really is have known what he's really about since the beginning. He's about himself and nothing more. His every move, his every word is about further enriching himself and patting himself on the back for his greatness.\n\nHis election to a 2nd term (and maybe more if he decides to ignore our Constitution) will be written about in the history books and it will not be favorable. This is what he wants, though. He wants to be thought of as an influential figure. Well, he is that. But so was a certain little Austrian monster who is remembered with great shame and disgust.

I’m an American and I did Not vote for Trump. I knew he would destroy our country if he was elected. Many people are angry in America that Trump has launched this trade war with our Canadian friends. We love our neighbors. Many Americans do not want this. We are not happy with how things are changing for the worst in our country and in other countries. We are being ruled by an insane, thug/criminal and bully and his rich, puppet buddies. Diplomacy is not in their vocabularies. This is so sad. Stay strong Canada??

We the majority voted for president trump .. and we stand with him … all this haters kick rocks your democrat party lost the election

See Americans- you could have elected someone like him.

Alright guys. I was wrong. Trump is a traitor and I can’t stand for him any longer. I’ve never voted for him but I’ve supported him all three elections. I’ll never support a Republican again. Every single one of them is complicit in this.

Who would have thought that electing Trump could cause the whole world's economy to crash. Look at Trump's business record and there is no way that he would blunder us into a bankruptcy. Just don't look into his casinos, university or airline business to name a few.

Democrats are about the dumbest people in the world....Perfect example democrats voted for Joe Biden a man that became the worst president in history... His own party kicked him to the curb... Oh wait Biden was running the country... It was the democratic staff members... Under democrats 2021-2024 American house holds was paying out an extra $1,500 a month and democrats wanna cry about stuff.... There's a reason democrats lost the election ?????

i stand with Canada and Ukraine. TO my fellow Americans... you have done this to us by electing a corrupt, criminal communist and unhinged man as president of our nation. You have destroyed us with this maggot infested political party that will only bring on WW3 and the lost respect of every nation on earth. I am ashamed to be an American.

Great to hear a smart leader. Shame the US can’t manage to elect one

This blowhard deserves respect from no one. He talks tough now because he will soon be stepping down as PM. As a Canadian, I am ashamed that my country elected this tyrant three times. Canada is in no position to lecture ANYONE on governance.

If the American citizens have elected people with the IQ of Trump and Vance, what is the IQ of the American citizens? Yeah, there is no way of sugarcoating this.

Canada should first implement trudeau. New person should be elected. Then that person should visit the oval office with trump in, then trump must say to that guest you don't have the cards to play, with us only you have the cards ?

We have a president who cares abour the economic state of our country and the morale of its blue collar worker. Our country has been ripped off by people abroad and internally. This is pressure on all governments we do business with for equal trade. We are forcing countries to become more self reliant. Each country needs to become the greatest version of itself unfettered by people dictating laws that enrich themselves at the behest of its citizens. We elected trump to tear down the old, fix the waste, weed out the greedy players taht dish out our money and get kickbacks. Thats all. America is about to become super self reliant and bring back an early 1900s boom. We can no longer be the piggy bank of the world.

That dude will be replaced and its because Canadians are tired of super left ideologies. It will probably be more of a landslide than trump vs kamala election
