Plainly speaking, it was never about fentanyl. Trump is trying to bully everyone into submission. We saw it last week with Zelenskyy. Don’t back down Canada. True Americans stand with their allies.

Total respect for Canada! I'm so sorry for what my government (USA) is doing - its disgusting.

So now I need to worry about my electricity being shut off as I live close to Canada?

Canada and us Democrats, it's time to stop being so polite!

Canada x EU partnership = ?

Canada must strong, word needs strong leader and diversification.

So he's saying Canada will continue to not pay their contractual UN obligations to help defend Ukraine, (and other countries in conflict), and will instead be dumping the penalty for non-payment on his own people and the US tax payers who have been supporting his country's debts for decades?

I am a US citizen who does not want trump as president. I don't want these tariffs against Canada or Mexico. I'm so sorry trump is doing these tarrifs. Do what you must for your people. I'll support Canada and the Mexican people. Thank you

I never thought I’d see the day when the President of the United States would launch a trade war against a staunch ally & friend, while sucking up to the murderous Russian dictator Putin. Stand strong Canada, the free world - what’s left of it - support & stand with you! ❤❤❤

I'm so sorry Canada.

Our government. We don't care what Canada says. USA first

Whoever replaces Mr Trudeau, Canadians better make sure he/she is not an agent working for foreign interests, Whoever leads Canada Better be squeaky clean !!!!

I'm sorry Canada.

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 ❤??

Why is PM Trudeau not talking about the reasons President Trump put tariffs on Canada and Mexico? CNN is a biased network highlighting only one side,

Please know, that just because most voters voted him in, that does NOT mean most Americans support him. Just those who got out to vote that day. We don’t want this. I support Canada, Ukraine and the rest of the European nations ??

Lmao ??? Trudeau is on his way out Trump is going too make Canada great again. Trump is resetting geopolitics. Get ready world.

This nepotistic kid who was born into a family of privilege supports separatists like Khalistan, and gives free passage to tens of thousands of Syrian Muslim refugees - who are on a path to islamise Canada!!!

Canada does not have to defend itself in this case. Its clear that Putin wants to wreak havoc as much as possible and his ' boy' is doing it.

Who convinced Trump of this? I like him but this trade war against Canada isn’t the way to go, really. I feel Canadians were mistakenly targeted. US needs allies not foes. Proud of Trudeau for the first time. I don’t live in the US but in Canada at the moment, not Canadian either, but I’m very objective in my perception about these occurrences. I hope America makes peace with Canada so strengthen both sides, hmmm.

You see, Wolfe, there is, Wolfe, a situation, Wolfe, going on, Wolfe, in Canada, Wolfe. Wolfe, Wolfe...

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.

Support to Canada and Europe from Japan.

Good and not servility speech! I hope you can do more about Fentanyl and the Chinese organized criminal activity in your Casino and Fentanyl chemical sent by CCP! We love Canadian but not Fentanyl, illegal immigrants, and CCP infiltration! Goo bless America and Canada!

The U.S. did not slap Canada and Mexico with 25% tariffs - Trump did.

If this continues Canada will die soon.

Trudeau ruined Canada. Radical left has ruined the world! No one cares about (a boot) Canada. lmao

Trump's actions are not those of an ally. He's a terrorist that wants to annex Canada like Putin did with Ukraine.

Make no mistake. . . Trump is after CANADA. Donnie, we are NOT your Louisiana Purchase. We are NOT your Alaska Acquisition.\n\nTrump thinks he is smart, and regardless of what Trudeau said. . . Smartness is measured by actions.

We love you and stand with Canada! I wish this wasn't happening. ?\nMy brother-n- law is from Canada, and he is a wonderful person.

Canada isn't a Country it's the 51st US State. Better Hope Greenland doesn't beat you to the Deal. First come, First serve to the Full backing and open Arms with a Bear Hug included with 0% Tariffs and increased Developmental Funding.

Show some color to that bastard Trump ! Good job, Canada !?

From a US Citizen... Canada remain strong and unlike our politicians stand up to all bullies. Trumples the Clown doesn't represent the good in the US... and to the veterans that spoke up... thanks for your service and thanks for once again standing up for the US

God bless Canada.

Canada, you did not hurt us Americans. DT did.

Canada I love you and I am sorry for the others stupidity ?

I suggest 100% tariffs ,,\nOn all trade between usa,,\nAnd canada \nTrudeau your not sucking our countries tit , anymore,,\nDeal with it

Trudeau is also a dictator. We would rather Canada pay tariffs than for US citizens to pay high taxes. It makes more sense. If the products are worth it, they will still sell.

I stand with you Canada, and strongly rebuke Trump.

As an American it wouldn't bother me if the U.S. became Canada's 11th province. We are not down the right path!

For all of you supporting Zelenskyy, the man cannot even account for $100 billions -- yes, billions with a B -- given to his country, and his stupidity plays right into the hands of starting WWIII, if we're not in it already. Ukraine is just another source of money laundering, and here we are just willing to give more and more money without any result, except for dead bodies. There is nothing wrong for wanting peace. You can't negotiate with only one side. And for Canada, Canada has been charging us high tariffs for years, but no one has pointed out that unfairness.

The Smart Americans are with you Canada and all Allies. trump & musk are a CANCERS that needs to be removed immediately , ****. Help US! ****

Watch how fast Canada folds. Game bravado on Camera on the phone..... Punk.

From the EU welcome, 12:26 Canada, you have a real friend over here

Isn’t it the canadian border bigger than the US with Mexico? And they got a better protection plan. Cani move to Canada? They are very nice people. I have met many canadians in cruises. And they are super. Nice people. Now i am going to another cruise prepare to apologize for the situation that me as an american do not approved.

Canada was with USA In war against terrorism!!! Our soldiers lost life..and CNN should report on that

During the 2nd world war many people sought refuge in Canada not the US I guess people knew then already how untrustworthy that country and its citizens actualky are

Canada will be fine! It's the Americans that will be tariffed by many countries by the time the lunatic is done. He will burn that country to the ground. We'll see who's still standing! I'm not all that worried because besides food, which we've easily replaced what do we get from the US? Nothing we can't get elsewhere. However, the US needs our resources. The lunatic is going to speak to Canadian's later today. Someone tell him we won't be listening!

This is how a true leader behaves..As a Brit I stand with Canada. ❤

Europeans who considered a holiday in the US, should go to Canada instead. Well done Canada.
