I am an American citizen. I did not vote for Trump. I would never vote for somebody like Trump and I’m sorry for what he’s doing to Canada but you do what you have to do we’ll survive, but somebody has to put Trump in his place.

American citizen here….@ Trudeau we don’t want this either. It’s clear this administration does not care about the American people. It’s clear they seek to destroy the people and exploit the American people to gain more power. Thank you for clearly saying what we all know as this administration continues to gaslight the world. Make it make sense?

I'm an American citizen, but I definitely agree with Canada I'm more on peace, i stand for Canada. I fight for my fellow Americans who will suffer for this. I'm American, but I did not vote for him.

This is the leader speaking. Not trump. I speak this as a US citizen.

God save US citizen voting president

As an American I am absolute ashamed and disgusted at what is happening to our standing in the world thanks to DJT. And I’m so sorry at the way this is affecting our allied countries and their citizens, our friends. I’m so sorry you have to fight this fight because so many of us failed to stop the fascist oligarchy takeover at home

As an American citizen we stand with our President. You’re a huge part of the border problem and you allow people to drive dump trucks and Semi’s who wreck and spill cargo and then get in another car and disappear.Tackle your problems and protect our border and then we can talk.

I'm a US citizen I did not vote for Trump I vote for anybody but Trump. The Canadian leader that is a real leader someone who cares about his people and his neighbors.. I mean why are we picking a fight with Canada?

Respect and support for Canada from a citizen of the Netherlands.

America should implement a federal sales tax if it's really wanting to raise federal income, not pretend it's about 'trade' and try to make other countries suffer too for what it chooses to do to it's own citizens and economy.

Thank you, to all our brothers, sisters, friends and allies from around the world. Canada loves and respects all of humanity. Canada supports the rules based societies and international law. We are a loving, compassionate diverse nation that comprises of all nations as citizens from around the world. \n\nYou know us and we know you… we are connected. We look forward to making new friends, strengthening existing ones and we are open to free, fair and peace loving people. \n\nMake no mistake. Our kindness and compassion should not be mistaken for weakness. We are forged from the steel of our earth. We will go over the boards when our friends and families are attacked internally and around the world. \n\nLong Live Canada and Ukraine! Elbows up…

Live in California but still am a Canadian citizen-PROUDLY ??

It's going to be tougher on Americans. Trump and Elon have destroyed all the government agencies that could help citizens in need. American citizens are on their own.

This US citizen stands with Canada!

So much for saving the economy and lowering grocery prices on day 1. I’m so exhausted when it comes to the USA and half of its citizens. Inflation up everything up lol I’m never going there again or buying anything American if I can help it. Enjoy your Russification dimwits.

I am so glad PM Trudeau said bluntly than any US politician or the orange that the US gov has chosen to harm its own citizens in the name of tariffs.\n\nBravo Justin.

I love Canada and I love all of the Canadian people as an American I feel really bad for you guys because you’re going through what we went through in the Biden administration. It’s gonna get worse until it gets better but it’s up to all of you Canadians to vote the right way next time you need a real man who has power And can deal with your country and puts it first and the citizens first this guy showed up in a Barbie premiere movie wearing the pink outfit that says enough. Trump knows that he needs to go it almost seems like he’s gonna get rid of all the weak leaders so we can have a power for world and bring world Peace. Pray for you guys it will get better but you need to vote him out?

MAKE CANADA GREAT AGAIN! \n\nWe foundation Audit!!\nGreenbelt Audit!\nSNC Lavellin Audit!!\nArrive Can Audit!\nMcKinsey Consultant Audit!\n\nLet’s see why our Canadian dollar is deteriorating and stop sending blame shall we? \n\nAmerica has EVERY right to put their citizens first, can we do the same?

Trump has declared war against Citizens of the USA

I apologize for our President. He’s a fool who knows nothing of diplomacy and basic decency. \n\n-USA citizen

Go Trudeau! At least someone is standing up to him. From a US citizen who will probably be hit with the consequences - but I cheer you on!

As an American I am absolute ashamed and disgusted at what is happening to our standing in the world thanks to DJT. And I’m so sorry at the way this is affecting our allied countries and their citizens, our friends. I’m so sorry you have to fight this fight because so many of us failed to stop the fascist oligarchy takeover at home

Hello Canada, \nThe Netherlands here (well, one citizen thereof). We love Canada; I speak for all the citizens hereof. Your troops liberated us at the end of WWII. We have not forgotten that. Now, we in Europe are facing Hitlers shadow, in Putin. Join us. Apply to become a member of the EU.

The Drug Fentanyl is coming into the USA because Americans want it to come in .\n. America would be better employed finding the reason for people to need this narcotic .Maybe it's because your . society is so unfair, maybe it's because you have so many people without money, possessions, education and opportunities . Maybe it's because you don't look after your sick and elderly and UNDERPRIVILEGED.. Trump should not blame other country's HE SHOULD ACT LIKE A REAL LEADER . And show leadership AND focused on improving the well-being of all citizens.

Canadá still ❤️ American people!! and we are very sorry that you guys have a president who is bullying.. all the citizens around your country ? as Elon son told Trump he needs to go away and also Elon they are destroying USA specially median class… In my point of view the citizen puts the president and also they can take away since he is abusing of power !!

As a Canadian citizen, God blessed Canadians and Canada County. ??

I love the USA, Buffalo, NY and Canada. I do not respect our President who has no concern for USA Citizens or our safety.

after watching this I want to be a citizen of Canada.

And as usual everyone immediately goes after Trump before you see any results. As Trump tries to save money for American citizens for some reason liberals are against it. Trump did a pretty good job the last time he was in office so give him a chance. Trudeau is on his way out so I don’t particularly care what he has to say. He’s more in line with a Bernie Sanders than a Conservative.

wow this guy is really angry that they wont be able to tax my money anymore. and wait, if tariffs are so bad for the citizen then isnt it bad that canada has had tariffs on the usa for 4 decades?

As a usa citizen its utteraly cringe how bad things have changed for the worst. Respect to canada for calling it like it is and not backing down.

I am a US citizen and I am embarrassed to have such a dumb criminal insecure sick buffoon as president. \nI am also ashamed of how in this country, we have an ill-informed racist uneducated naive selfish electorate, that would put a weak person who can't even compose a short sentence correctly in the highest office in the land.

Call that orange ass out. Tell the US citizens exactly what he is doing. Well done PM Trudeau. Elbows up, we are going over the boards Canada.

As a US citizen, I support our long-term allies—Canada and Europe.

So sorry ?, you'll be making more money. Keep your goods. We'll keep ours. Maybe you can see your way clear to get along. Bullshit your own citizens. Good luck, let's get it on. Thank you ?

GO CANADA...STAND UP FOR US ALL...APPARENTLY U.S. CONGRESS AND CITIZENS ARE UNABLE TO STAND FOR THEMSELVES....BOYCOTT THE FELON

Why is CNN just repeating the MAGAt lies about fentanyl and migrants crossing the Canadian border. And on the southern border, 80% of fentanyl is brought in by US citizens at border crossings.

I am USA citizen! We stand with Canada! Please adopt me?. I’m truly saddened with what we are living now. I never thought in my lifetime. I will see my country regress in time it is hurtful.

Premier Trudeau, please realize that Trump does not speak for the vast majority of the people of the USA!!! We love Canada and we love the people of Canada and we love to visit your beautiful Country!!! So please remember that Trump was elected based on lies and a minority of our citizens!!!

Blame the president don't blame us citizens

Dear US citizens. It's not you. It's Donald J Trump and his entire disgusting administration.

I'm a US citizen and I'm ? agree with you

Why does Donald Trump hate the United States and it's citizens?

Trudeau needs to call Trump out as THE RUSSIAN AGENT as soon as he leaves office.\nAs soon as he's a private citizen he needs to do this in order to ram home to the US population that THE RUSSIAN AGENT is in the Whitehouse.

I’m an citizen of the world and I stand with Canada ❣

American Citizens, band together your local communities in your districts and states. Take in all the information you can about the decisions our government has made, make it concise and to the point, speak to your voted representatives. Make your promise to un-elect if they don't follow the will of the people. There's nothing stronger than the unity of the United States of America, it's time to prove that we are able to unify again, for real.

I so wish that the great leaders of other countries would just say Donald Trump in stead of saying the United States of America. Because we, the average American citizen find Trump’s illogical decisions ruinous for all of us

I wish EVERY US citizen watches this carefully, digests it and comes to the only possible conclusion that their president is simply an idiot.

US citizens, stop calling your country America. I am sorry you were born in a country that has no name, but America is MY CONTINENT. Respect it!

Fear mongering at its finest.. why throw the word war into this.. they dont want the smoke.. i think we should trade citizens.. leftist to canada far right in america.. lets see which on prevails
