Go on Canada. when have you EVER seen a Canadian Be angry..... TODAY! Another Trump disaster against the USA.

If you want to stand tall against the most powerful country in the history of Earth, let's see how long you stand. Canada is not an equal. Proud Republicans who support the POTUS should to the best of their abilities boycott Canadian products. USA cannot continue on its current path. Our grandkids will be paying $20 a gallon of milk and $1,000,000 for a run down house. USA needs change and no one until Trump offered any real change. USA saved Europe in WW2 and rebuilt Europe afterwards. If they don't want to be a friend of the USA, that will weaken them, not us

I believe. Working together. Been friends usa. And canada. Trump we door have big drug problem and soo meny coming in. Cross with. Nothing. Crime has double. Rent soo high. Work. Together. Please. Clean up

Im so ashamed right now of the USA. The country i was born and live in. everyone who voted for this should have done your due diligence. You can help us get out of this or you can help Putin and Trump turn us into a country that is devoid of all the freedoms we have known throughout our entire lives

The reason for this 'trade war' is not about 'trade'. It's about 'creating chaos' so that president Trump is the 'centre' of world attention. A malignant naracistic individual apparently cannot have anyone seemingly to be 'doing better' or being more successful than he is. Canada ?? is a very successful nation and because of its economic success it is creating envy and apparently hatred in certain individuals who view the success of Canada ?? as a threat to themselves. The USA now apparently cannot see the value of a strong and stable economy as its near neighbours. Thats why apparently there are some who now want to crash the Canadian economy and when times then 'get tough' the blame and responsibility for this chaos will be accepted by whom. Presidents and Prime Ministers come and go. Once their 'term is over' they simply 'walk away'. World leaders need to be men or women of integrity and honesty who 'do the right thing'. With 'great power' comes 'great responsibility'. You only 'give responsibility' to someone who has the wisdom and expertise and understanding in order to both 'hold' and 'govern' wisely and without fear or favor. Maybe its time for others in positions of authority in other institutions to step in and 'take control'. You would never let a child drive a super car on the highway so how much 'damage' has to happen before a world leader is not 'held to account' and his 'hands removed' from the steering wheel before there is a motor accident so large that the freeway is rendered unless and has to be totally shut down your. You cannot have total power in the hands of individuals who apparently do not possess the necessary skills knowledge and experience and wisdom that is required to fulfil the role they were elected to fulfil. A person with the mind and mentality of a child apparently is not a fit person to be running the economy of any nation. May Canada ?? remember its roots and may we all be thankful for true and honest leaders who have integrity and do and say the right thing. Thank you Mr Prime minister. I trust that King Charles III has heard what his Canadian prime minister has said and what he is doing with total integrity.

America needs to implement tariffs to force businesses to build factories in USA. Trump is right.

This is what usa put on the block when you that elected a stupid president again Donald dumb trump

MY GOD WHAT IS TRUMP DOING TO THE USA ????? VIEWER IN IRELAND

Well done, PM Trudeau. You made us proud as Canadians. You said it like it is. Donald, and I noticed you refrained from calling him President Trump because he is certainly not acting like a president, Donald is siding with our enemies, snuggling up to a malicious dictator rather than taking a stand for right and for the common good. He has absolutely no reason to impose tariffs and is actually breaking legal agreements to do so, but we all know that Trump believes he is above the law. If you like this speech, go and listen to Premier Ford of Ontario as he threatens to tariff all the energy which flows into the States or even just cut it off. Nobody wins in this war, certainly not Americans. But Elon and Donald don't care. They are filthy rich and will just plan chaos and world domination in their sandbox while everyone else in the USA takes the hit.

This Mexican American stands with our President TRUMP! USA…USA….\nWe don’t need Canada, CNN is also FAKE NEWS!?

Americans, wake up! Trump is doing Putin bidding and he isolating usa from your allies…

IS THAT TRUMP JUST ASK YOU NOT TO SELL DRUGS TO USA ? BUT YOU JUST FIGHT FOR IT ?

How come still nobody knows what Putin has on Trump? What was this secretive meeting in Helsinki years ago about? What was discussed there? Trump being Trump, who lies and who is weak of charactre and as bribeable and corrupt as they come. Can't put a normal sentence together. Picture that big toddler in a room with Putin and Putin alone.. Nobody knows what was discussed there. Now they have a president picking fights with his allies. He is fumbling at the very basis which NATO, Europe and US stands for, stood for.\nAt this point Trump basically is putting USA into isolation. Putin and Xi couldn't be more happy.

So, has the USA under Trump turned into a Russian asset.?\nSeriously, the rest of the civilised world especially us in the UK are looking in open-mouthed astonishment at the behaviour of the nominal leader of the free world.\nAmerica is morphing into a broken and divided society, but in the meantime, you're scaring everyone else guys, including your historical allies, because Trump is untrustworthy, he's coming across like a gangster who sees everything as a opportunity for self-enrichment.\nTrump is looking like Putin's Poodle.\nPutin really has got him on a lead, definitely his bitch..!!! \nSupport here from your Commonwealth brothers and sisters in the UK

Canada stand with Pride, we support you and unfortunately Trump needs to learn a lesson and may all his Maga idiots see him for what he is and wake up! God be with Canada, Mexico and the USA! If you stand against Trump you stand on the side of good and democracy and we support that!

I’m very very proud to be Canadian! I’m extremely proud that I’ve sold off ALL of my USA held stocks prior to the market fall! I will never ever moving forward invest in USA! Ever! Even when Trump is dead and buried! I’m done with the country that voted for the man the second time. Shame!

President Trump, please raise the USA tariff on Canada to 50% please.

Trump is not being played by Putin. Trump is a russian agent used by Putin to destroy the West. USA people cannot believe this, but thats the truth.

I have family and friends in USA. Plus I belive there big drug problems in Canada and the border. Think Trump was asking him clean up. Yes good help other countries but. Canada ...we taken in sooo meny. With housing soo high because storage. And jobs.

trump is finished already dont deal with usa block them out of everything and look to other markets uk , europe, asia etc well done sir respect from the uk.

I am a French Canadian. I did not hear it From Trudeau in English but I heard it in French, the real reason of the economic war is annexation. Fentanyl, immigration was just a Casus Belli. Trump want to put us on our knees and beg to join the US. We will have federal elections soon and we know that Trump will try to influence the outcome of the elections like Chine, Russia or India. We know has Canadian that USA is not a friend anymore. Trump is the dumbest of American President of the history of USA. Americans citizens get rid of Trump and Vance before it is too late.

From Arkansas, USA, i firmly and proudly stand with Canada. And on behalf of all those too simple to see whats been happening and what is happening, i wholeheartedly apologize. Though he didnt have to lie to trump and tell him hes a smart man ? we all know thats not true

À nos frères Canadiens : French here, let's unite Canada, Europe, Mexico, and the democratic countries attacked or threatened by Trump and Putin, commercialy or military, and build a new partnership in key domains as commerce, defense, science, ecology research and culture, without the USA. This can lead to a new positive force around the globe. Vive le Canada ❤??

Trump wants to destroy USA like before Mikhail Gorbachev did the Soviet Union.

I love our country, the USA. I am ashamed and horrified of our president and his cult. Please, KNOW we stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and every country that Trump is threatening. He is a madman, totally insane. Save Our Souls. SOS.

That's the big point what Prime minister from Canada said , this is just what they want that the allies weaken and Trump traps in it , Al this years so many work to build strong Canada and USA is just in a second gone because 1 stupid Man and that's President Trump

Europe is close to Canada! Trump administration is a complete disaster. Wake up, USA!

Question Americans and Press how Rich more rich will Trump be and is he aligning himself when he is DONE BEING PRESIDENT?! He is taking over companies and communities for Himself while using a USA badge as President. This is not Well and it is the SECOND MONTH OF THE YEAR WE HAVE 3&3/4 years left wow Jesus!!

First. Drop Canadas tariffs against the USA.\n Does Trudeau understand that Trump has implemented Reciprocal tariffs. Which means you raise tariffs, ours go up exactly the same.

As a Brit I fully support Canada. USA, you started all this by electing Trump and Vance. Trump and Vance will hurt both the USA and the rest of the western world, they will help Russia and trumps other friendly dictators. Well spoken PM Trudeau.

For trump this is personal, he could give a crap about the USA, after all, he's getting us ready for handing the USA to his daddy trump.

As an American born Ukrainian, we stand with Canada, who continues. Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and JD Vance are very EVIL and VILE human beings. THESE 3 CRIMINALS ARE Taking the USA INTO MANY DIFFICULT SITUATIONS. Getting back in to being buddy buddy again with THE WORLDS BIGGEST CRIMINAL AND DICTATOR PUTIN, IS GOING TO BE A BIG ISSUE for Americans. Many have innocent children and civilians have been MURDERED in Ukraine by Putin. Even as we tried several times to talk peace though Putin has proven that he wants NOTHING TO DO WITH A CEASEFIRE AND PEACE!!! TRUMP SHOULD BE IN PRISON LIKE THE CRIMINAL THAT HE IS!!!!

LYING TURDEAU OPENS HIS MOUTH BUT CHINA IS TALKING. USA DON'T BE FOOLED. TURD TURDEAU IS A COOMUNIST BASTARD OUT TO F@@@@CK THE USA AND TRUMP. THIS IS A PSY-OPS BY COMMUNISTS

Turn the electric off the USA, teach trump a lesson

I'm not American. I grew up hearing lots of hate bout USA cuz the US doesn't exactly have a good rep in foreign policies - always bullying other nations, starting wars for oil etc. but I've always preferred USA not just for the world order it brings, it allows different voices, criticism & scolding towards its leaders compared to China, Russia & North Korea. \n\nin the US, you can talk bad bout politicians in power, or probably make movies bout these kind of things like US invading other countries for oil, or testing out some cruel AI military robots on humans (movie name: Monsters of Man), & you won't be persecuted. but after looking at a bunch of executive orders Trump has signed, the way he (& JD Vance) treated Zelenski & Canada, I don't know if I still feel the same bout USA anymore.\n\nif USA doesn't wanna continue spending on Ukraine, perhaps USA shouldn't have sweet talked Ukraine into denuclearization thru the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. that's what you get for mendling with other countries' affairs. by stopping US aid & wanting a new mineral deal, Trump's refusing to follow the Memorandum (I added this sentence thru edit as I can't reply to the comment below).\n\nunderstandably, US & UK don't need to deploy troops in Ukraine as the security assurance in the memorandum wasn't clearly defined, but it also didn't mention that Ukraine should pay the US back financially, nor any mineral concessions. \n\nTrump always wanting a purely 1 sided deal will only isolate USA from more allies.

The pace at which the trump administration is dismantling USA leadership is startling.

Trump has hurt the USA so bad it will take decades to recover

TRUMP IS HELPING PUTIN DESTROY THE USA. HE IS THE ENEMY FROM WITHIN‼️

As a citizen of the USA who voted against Donald Trump, I'm sorry for all the damage this monster is doing to the world. It is a horrible stain on the history of this country and the bright men who founded it, as imperfect as they were.

Trump is puppet of Putin, USA you have a soviet in the white house

It's not trump fault is the people who vote for him jack in other words this is what the people of usa wants.

Eveything that Trump is doing has Putin written all over it. Everything that Russia could benefit from is being executed by the President of The USA. We really are witnessing the beginning of a dark chapter in American and world history. Trump is destroying (deliberately) crucial historical alliances that have benefitted the US itself. It really is mind-blowing stuff.

Impeach Dumb Trump!!! We are with you Canada ?? \nSo embarrassing USA

As italian, I’ve been in Canada many time for business. Lets be honest trudeau it’s good only at speaking. You destroyed Canada with your immigration ideology. Trump is making his business, and don’t worry about usa, their economy will not be affected from the Canadian tariffs

Trump has done 1 thing great. Unite the rest of the world against America. The downfall of the USA is here, sorry to all my friends and relatives in the USA. It's time to get out.

The USA are the most unreliable country in the world at the moment. That’s what we think here in Europe. And we fear that the worst is yet to come during trump’s administration. We do hope that the mid term elections will block his power. But they are far away

Great speech but Trump rightfully knows that everyone besides China and Russia can only bring knifes to a gun fight. Usa and russia will completely rip off Ukraine. Europe cant defend itself against Russia. Scary hours for the whole world

Trump does not give a crap about the usa.\n He will find ways for this money to drop in his own pocket.\nHe is a grifter, a fraud and should be in jail.

Trump is determined USA can be an island alone in a global world.\n\nEurope and UK have tariffs coming soon.

I support trudeau for standing up with trump. Now, sell your oil to other nation. You need the USA more than he needs you.
