How about Canadians and Europeans do trade? For next 4 years let Trump trade with Himself.

And to think a few months ago he was so low in the polls and so unpopular he decided to step down to give his party a fighting chance in the next election. Just imagine if Joe Biden had shown that same kind of leadership. We may not have a second Trump presidency to deal with.

Hey dumbasses who voted for Trump: The Wall St Journal estimates these tariffs will increase the cost of your next pickup truck by $9k ! But hey, I guess that's a small price to pay for your improved relationship with Vladimir Putin. Who are you people ?!

Well who’s ready for Canada to make America it’s next province ?

Can America be the next province of Canada? Asking for everyone sensible.

The American empire is falling from inside. We saw the same thing in 1990. China the next empire. Next!!!!!

The USA president Trump wants everything to be manufactured and sourced locally from the United States of America. He knows what happened during COVID-19 and what problems the world experienced because of a global supply chain. Now while it doesn't really make sense with Canada who is right next door the Canadians were given the opportunity to integrate into the USA so there could be some motive in that. And why wouldn't they want that anyway? Just remove the Canadian border and everyone becomes the USA. Why not?

So……when we to expect the nukes next?

And next month it'll be 50% tariffs to Canada. Have fun.

Trump is a Russian Spy trump is not American he is Russian born in the USA I quess next he will change Americas name to Russian United States and Congress will probably allow him to do the Supreme Court Judges and Congress oath of office is to Trump not the We the People

Here comes the next great depression

Trump is provoking Canada into cutting energy supplies to the northern states, to set US citizens against Canada, as a prelude to an attempt to annex Canada. This could be explained if Trump has been talking to Putin and colluded on a plan to divide the world between them. This would also explain his insane plan to annex Gaza, as an excuse to react to the inevitable violence that would attract on its 'American' territory. Taking Greenland would be next, while Putin moves into Europe. Well done, American voters...you've killed us all.

I support TRUMP on his take on UKRAINE. You can’t talk tough from a place of weakness. If America stops supporting, Ukraine is finished and this talk about after Ukraine NATO countries are next is total nonsense(if Russia does then just activate article 5 and shut the f up). You cannot talk about negotiation and diplomacy while insulting your opponent. Trudeau is a liar and we can’t forget his actions in trying to rewrite history by bringing Zelenskyy to congress and applauding a Nazi Veteran and calling Russia the aggressor in the 2nd world war. That will never be forgotten SILLY!!!!!!

You cannot succeed appeasing a tyrant. I just don't understand why no one seems to understand that. Donald Trump is mentally disturbed and you KEEP trying to communicate with a crazy man. Stop it! Assume his craziness and take next steps!

Trump and JD Vance are bad politicians!. No one can trust America nowadays. The USA betrayed the South of VN, Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Ukraine. The Republic of Taiwan will be the next victim to trust America!

Well done canada for standing your ground....having family there I know how strong the feeling is amongst Canadians.....be proud of who you are and take your produce , minerals and oil and deal with people who will treat you like an equal respected partner .I've no doubt europe will be next ......the american government will slowly isolate itself from its western partners and that's s real shame for the American public .......it'll cost jobs in the us cause inflation and it's gonna get a lot more expensive for everyone

As an American, I do not at all blame Canada’s response to trump’s irresponsible and embarrassing behavior. I know this will affect me, but I side with Canada completely. I just hope these next 4 years pass quickly and we can get a more reasonable administration into power.

He is totally correct in what he said. Look for job losses, inflation, and prices so high you don't buy what you used to , your fruit from Mexico will rise by 25 per cent also , next thing will be recession,

Go Canada Go !!\nEurope stands with you !!\nWe will be next.\nBring it on, Trump.\nWe too will hit back hard

As an American I stand with Canada. Don't let Trump dictate what Canada does, stick it to his ass. He won't be president forever and I feel bad for our next president that person is going have alot to fix and put back in place.

A summer of austerity for 36 million Canadians vs a summer of austerity for 365 million Americans. Good luck. I am really curious about what the MAGA and other Americans will do next.

Canada, you should build a wall, before Americans become the next generation of illegal immigrants, as climate, politics and their economy makes their country inhospitable… just joking of course… or not?

Quit whine Canada or next week you will be a state of America

What the heck is wrong with Trudeau? He should step down now and let the Next Prime Minister handle this situation. He's speaking like a leader going nowhere. Why does he pick Ministers who have nervous twitches like Mz Joly. Why is she twitching and moving all around??

Why are you interrupting the Q&A merely to re-state what Trudeau just said, so that we can't hear the next question?

Canada is the second powerful next to russia. Never treat them trump they can stand by itself

Canadian government has made Canadians paralyzed for decades with high tax rates, made worst business decisions emptied citizens pockets to fill outsiders and their own. Instead of making Canadians rich you have made us poor. I don't disagree to standup for yourself but our foundation is the weakest. If you want to change something think of Canadians make things easier...STOP making admissions hard for professionals pay more wages where its needed and stop increasing minimum wages without improving the lifestyle of people. A 16 yr old making minimum wage and don't even know what to do with the money improve the quality of life. Make businesses boom by helping them with easier access to grants and business approvals. Help investors to grow and help middle class to become investors, make import export much easier. Better laws to protect investors...help those who are growing the economy not dinging them with more and more taxes. This tariff war is going to hurt us more than anyone else. Us poor Candians will have to pay for this hurt our children and our seniors. And that's exactly what Trump and Elon want. To the next Canadian PM - HELP CANADIANS! LET LIVE AND LET GROW...

While I support everything that is against Trump and his gang, I deeply worry about those who oppose him that could go missing, “suicide” or get suddenly “overthrown”.\n\nCould the next Canadian Prime Minister kiss the ring?

TRAMP will make and making america GREAT again.????????????????????????? USA next time wote for another uneducated douchebag to meke america even more greater.??????????? and by the way when tramp was shot, i doubt he got shot in the EAR. IT CLEARLY HE WAS SHOT IN THE HEAD. HE GOT BRAIN DAMAGE .????????

And what's next ?INVASION of our country ?

The ”orange clown” creating kaos all over the world! But why? He doesn’t care for next generation, the man is 78 and his evil friend (Putin) 72? And those old crazy men rule all over, why? Everybody talking about money and costs, two bullets should save both lives and a lot of cash????

Well, I’m with you Canada, unfortunately many brain dead Americans voted this orange traitor into office for the next four years and now we’re stuck with him. ??‍♀️????

How can any country in the world trust what the US regime will do next?\nI simply do not understand what has happened to USA. It's very sad and alarming.

This,is a joke. Trudeau is out next month.???

If Mark Carney gets elected as our next Prime Minister, nothing would make me happier than if he kept Justin Trudeau in his cabinet as Canada's new ambassador to the United States.

This is not about tariffs. It is about Trump unravelling all of America's relationships with its allies, to make the country weaker, in the service of Putin. Canada is just the first. But Europe will be next. Then America stands alone, too weak to be a world leader.

I live on the Minnesota/Canadian border, next to the BWCA. I support Canada! I detest Trump and his MAGA chumps.

Why do other Countries need to sort out the drug problem in the US....surely they can do it \nthemselves from within???? the next question is do they actually want to sort it out????? \nhave they made any efforts yet??? even to their own Pharmacies...seems it's a $$$ spinner!

From Europe: we stand in solidarity with Canada (as we likely are the next ones to be senseless tariffed). Already lost money because stocks are going down.... what madness this is.

The next president is going to have to clean up the mess Trump has caused and his little side kick Vance

@robertedward7023 It can but I think Trump is right on this one. Zelensky needs to realize that he won't get his land back that Russia took, and that negotiating is the only way to come to peace now. He's living in a fairytale world fighting an unwinnable war. I think the US is right to pull the plug on financial aid to try to pressure Zelensky to negotiate to end the war. Unfortunately, to end the war Ukraine will likely have to concede the land they lost. But the reality is Putin will never give that land back. But it's better than more people dying everyday. Zelensky has gotten all too comfortable relying on financial aid and as a result he hasn't been willing to try anything new (like negotiate) to get this war finished. If we keep sending him money, nothing will change. Now he has pressure to negotiate. the US and Canada can't keep sending money to Ukraine for the next 20 years while this war carries on.

Maga is week! Merica is strong. America will be back, maga free and she will be better than ever. Next time Dems, vote for your canidate. Better yet find one that does not support AIPAC and is bought by them

Next, Trudeau, demand the US stop the flow of guns north and south.

We need all republicans out of office immediately, none of this current administration follows the constitution. We are losing our constitutional liberties by the hour due to every republican following their king. Btw, I am independent, I am pro democracy and pro constitution. We have to demand impeachments . As I write, our right to protest and freedom of speech at colleges is gone. Wtf is next?

American here. Trudeau is a true leader, and I respect the Hell out of him right now. He looks extremely presidential next to Trump.

I appreciate Trudeau standing up for you Canadians. I also heard the lady standing next to Trudeau speak and she is a strong leader too. I stand with you Canadians as neither of us asked for this but we are who are going to pay for trump's bad business practices...

Trudeau should be our next Prime Minister...!!! ?\nOur economies are so inter-twined because it WORKS! So many American companies have set-up plants in Canada in order to profit from doing business here. It's not just products that we MUTUALLY benefit from selling to each other, the US generates significant profits from its many operations in Canada, and those $Billions of dollars in profits that go back to American Investors is not included in the 'Trade Imbalance' that is a justification for the tariffs. With those profits included, I'd bet Canada is the nation with the imbalance not in its favor...

If Trudeau keeps giving speeches like this he may very well be the next Liberal leader!

Still no words on Canadas high exports into America. This is bull! Thanks' Trump first president to stand next to the people and not on top of them!

How come he believes he is doing everything for Canada by closing parliament and stop Pierre P. to be the next PM? To take over this huge mess liberals created.
