Trump did a good thing. All you woke, soft hearted liberals don't get the fact that the USA has been allowing these other countries to eat off of us for free. Well, that' stops today. The President/PM of Ukraine will also learn a valuable lesson today as well. Never bite the hand that feeds you. All of our tax dollars have been donated around the world to other people's causes while we are made to suffer. We have a financial crisis right here in America that needs to be addressed. This is the start, and in the long term, we will prevail. Canada is like a little sister to the US. Trudeau is talking about fighting and they can't survive a war without our help. Neither can many of the other NATO countries. So, middle finger to him and any other country that opposes us. It's time stop being taken advantage of and for the USA to start acting like we are the most powerful nation in the world. Many of you don't like Trump's decisions simply because you don't like the person. Get out of your feelings and look at then big picture.

Thank Mr. Trump for this disaster and its insulting attitude toward our friend and ally Canada….this is who we voted into office…..a sad day in US history! Trump acts on impulse ….on almost everything….no thought process…..no discussion with his “Yes” cabinet of puppets who rubber stamps everything Trump wants. The Prime Minister is spot on…..but Mr. Trump is unable and unwilling to act like an adult.

This is sad: Trump bruising with Canada and Mexico

I do not undetstand. Pls explain. How can bying from canada be ”an unfair deal”. USA are free to by from another country.

Canada needs to MAGA

It would be fun if Canada became a state. We could vacation there any time we wanted.

Bravo Canada ?? ❤

U S A and canada they are long time friends I think trump is the one who will break this relationship

Canada has not cared about our border too many illegals getting across, too much fentanyl, because letting people across fit's with his agenda. Over 79 million Americans voted for DJT and his policies it's what we want MAGA. We will keep our sovereign Nation.

Canada is weak.

Dont forget Canada applies tariffs on a variety of goods imported from the United States, but the specific goods subject to tariffs can vary depending on the trade agreements in place, as well as individual circumstances and trade disputes. Some of the key categories of goods that have historically been subject to tariffs or trade restrictions between the two countries include:\n\t1.\tAgricultural Products:\n\t•\tDairy products: Canada has a system of supply management in place for dairy, poultry, and eggs. As a result, certain U.S. agricultural products, particularly dairy, face higher tariffs when imported into Canada.\n\t•\tPoultry and eggs: Similar to dairy, tariffs are applied to U.S. poultry and eggs under Canada’s supply management system.\n\t•\tBeef and pork: Canada has historically imposed tariffs on U.S. beef and pork, although these are often adjusted or reduced under trade agreements like the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement).\n\t2.\tSteel and Aluminum:\n\t•\tCanada imposed tariffs on certain U.S. steel and aluminum products after the United States imposed tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum in 2018 under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962. However, in 2019, both countries reached an agreement to remove some tariffs, although certain products may still be subject to tariffs or quotas.\n\t3.\tLumber:\n\t•\tSoftwood lumber is another contentious issue in U.S.-Canada trade. Canada has faced tariffs on its softwood lumber exports to the U.S. for many years, and there have been instances where Canada has applied retaliatory tariffs in response to U.S. actions.\n\t4.\tConsumer Goods and Electronics:\n\t•\tSome consumer goods, like electronics, furniture, and vehicles, may have tariffs or duties imposed depending on the category, though the majority of goods between the U.S. and Canada are traded tariff-free under the USMCA, which replaced NAFTA.\n\t5.\tAlcohol and Tobacco:\n\t•\tCanada applies tariffs and duties on alcohol and tobacco products imported from the U.S., but these are often subject to specific regulations and agreements.

Canadians can be proud! Let Germany and Canada trade more! We welcome you!

trump IS NOT A SMART PERSON I DISAGREE THIS IS WHAT SOME OF THE AMERICANS PEOPLE VOTED FOR NOW THEY ARE GOING TO PAY FOR PUTTING A MAN THAT'S INSANE IN THE WHITE HOUSE. I STAND WITH UKRAINE AND CANADA.

It’s such a betray of Canada. It’s so sad.\nWe in Europe know, we are next…\nDemocracy! Democracy! Democracy!

Canada and Europe must become a block against the USA

Stand against bullies Canada. As a British citizen I support you.

Dear Canada, we the people of the US don't want this either.

Agree ?. Go Canada ??! I’m not against US??, but they going downhill?

Canada you’re no match to America.

Pfffft…. Canada is finished, suicide.

Trump is trying to break Canada so he can just do an aggressive takeover and subjugate canada to the us and outright annex the whole country of Canada……just like putin would do

As a American i support Trump and the taxes Canada has allowed the chinese ccp in their country has been practicing a unfair trade on the Americans for many years now finally someone standing up Trump 2024

Denmark ?? stands with Canada ??

Canada is worthless..

Why a fentanyl czar? Why does Canada support a russian term? Its a way of normalizing Russian influence

Trudeau is lying when he says they’re doing all they can. A giant fent lab was discovered in Canada in 2024 and no arrests have been made. Probably because the Chinese who fund it fleece Canadian politicians like they have been forever. Most of the world is ignorant to what is going on here. Look up Sam cooper and all the work he’s down to uncovering this.

As an American I stand with Canada

Wel done Canada

The people of canada can't even afford housing there. Trudeau has ruined the country,his approval ratings reflect this. America doesnt have any reason to fund a proxy war against Russia either. all you people have been brainwashed against the Trump administradion. FDR wasn't even going to get us involved in WW2, remember isolationism? we need more of that to cut back our military budget people

I stand with Canada...and I'm American.

These actions are going to ensure Canada grows more and more left-leaning. We are giving them the perfect scapegoat.

Canada, pls join us Europe

Send a physiotherapist to that ? Canada ?? you are strong!!!? show to that person

From an Italian, I am with Canada all the way! Trump screwed it up real bad.

Annex Canada! Welcome to America Canada! You will now be known as the United provinces of America. Also truedoe step down. You have failed your nation for a very long time.

Harsh language? Lol get real... I hope the people of America and Canada still stand together whether our governments are in disagreement or not.

As a Canadian we need to start buying Canada made or stuff made in Mexico or other countries besides America because everything is going to skyrocket that comes in from America

As a US citizen from MN, i really would like to become part of Canada. Trump is dragging the US to hell in a handbasket.

A lot of my fellow country-men from The Netherlands migrated to Canada and the reason is that Canada is a nice country to life in, people are generally nice and foreign people from Europe are welcomed warmly.

As a Canadian, we don't produce any arms and the ones that we have in our country come from the usa...then we should do the same as Mexico...we should sue the state for the crossing border in Canada....

Canada is a moocher.. do as your told Thot!

Canada is a clown country. Canada Tariff the crap out of the USA. Sorry girly man we have a President with balls. Your speech is worthless tripe.

Trumpy will fold, he always does. Canada keep your tariffs, teach Trumpy a lesson!!

American liberals love and respect Canada and the EU more than their own country. That's why they have put us in so many one-sided relationships.

You don’t have to tell us the obvious! Our president is a feeble minded fool and he has been a failure his whole life! The republicans have no backbone Musk said he will put his money up in the next election! We want to see Musk have no money! We want to see X taken off of the airwaves! I’m from a state that voted this idiot in to office and I want you to make the red states pay tremendously that will give us the numbers to stop this criminal regime! May god bless Canada and I will only spend my money with products from Canada that America can’t prosper from! There are many with us on this fight that we must win and we shall friends in Canada! Signed old man from Ohio with a brain and a heart!

Time to kick US out as the world leader at let Canada take over. The world needs a country that is literally defined by politeness instead of a country that chose to elect a president that attacks its allies.

Why is Trudeau talking? I thought Canada fired is dumb ass.

Canadians are frustrated and are choosing to stop buying U.S. products, but Trudeau escalating tensions into a trade war with a partner is just escalating the issue. Plus Canada cannot win this battle. \n\nLeadership change - Trudeau needs to go. Every time Trudeau opens and closes the door he creates a mess. \n\n(Note: open discussions on current events is essential, its too bad the Canadian shut down our rights to speak on media platforms)

Did Sunny from the view watch this press conference BECAUSE it is clear why The US goes after the southern border instead of Canada....Canada clearly does their part instead of the Southern Countries who could care less

I love Canada and Mexico! Trump is a clown and his administration is a circus! We need a hard reset and get this clown out of the White House!
