I just became a naturalized American citizen three weeks ago and frankly I wish I didn't. I'm embarrassed by the behavior of the Trump administration and not proud of being part of this America at all.

Canada! We didn't want Trump. It was a mistake. Forgive us. Help us fix this! I love you Canada.

I'm an American and I don't want this, I didn't vote for this, I'm upset by this, and I'm by no means the only American that thinks trade war with Canada is stupid, half the countries number one imports came from Canada, tariffs on a trade partner and Ally is absurd!

As an American. I stand with you Canada. We didn’t all vote for the Twitter guy.

I didn't vote for felon and chef and his clowns

The dollar is and has been a plague upon our people, children and all life on the planet. I also believe that Canada is my neighbor and didn't know this was coming.

This has nothing to do with fentanyl, he wants to take over Canada. So this is Trump having a pissy fit because he didn’t get his own way. Donnie, put your big boy pants on, and act like a grown up if you can.

please... get the facts straight. The US didn't hit Canada with Tariffs.. Trump hit Canada with Tariffs. Let's be honest, without Trump this would never have happened.

Wait a second. Didn't Trudeau freeze the bank accounts of Canadians who were protesting government policy back in 2022? WHO CARES WHAT THIS COMMUNIST SAYS???

The dollar is and has been a plague upon our people, children and all life on the planet. I also believe that Canada is my neighbor and didn't know this was coming.

Sad day to be an American.? And I American and I didn't vote for this.

As an American, I am very sorry for this to Canada and Mexico. I didn't vote for this clown, I didn't vote for stupidity. This is really, really unnecessary and it's all about the f'ing rich. Our so called President is an idiot bafoon.

Damn! Now I'm wishing i didn't vote for the orange man smdh

he didn't just say that. he said that Trump is a coward on Putin's side

It's not us its him..Why are you punishing us for what he decides. WE didn't want any of this..

This is Trump's revenge for the hotel in Vancouver taking trump's name off the front of the hotel. He didn't own it then, but taking down the symbol of the Trump god is not allowed.

Glad I didn't vote for the traitor. All people that voted for Trump knew he was despicable, he's been bankrupted multiple times therefore doesn't mind bankrupting America & he's the biggest liar ever.....this has been his whole life.....smh

Why do people still watch CNN after being lied to over and over? Didn't they tell you Hilary was winning in 2016 and then lied to you guys again about Harris leading in the polls in 2024 lol. Not sure if you guys knew but we all know there's immediate pain with these tariffs but in the long run, we should come out on top. I get you guys are emotional and don't like Trump but the reality is that USA doesn't need Mexico or Canada but they need the USA. Mexico and Canada's exports are 70-80% to the USA while we only export 13-14% to them. This means most of their economy relies on the USA and only a small of ours rely on theirs.

Maybe they didn't say thank you enough to Mr. Orange and his master Putin.

I'm no trump fan, at least he didn't invite a actual NAZI to the Congress and gave standing ovation.

I VOTED FOR KAMALA, BUT NOW WE ARE HERE BECAUSE YOU GUYS DIDN'T LISTEN

To anyone in Canada looking for a way to express their rejection of the Trump/Elon Musk administration: \nThe House of Commons is hosting a petition to revoke Elon's Canadian citizenship (yes, he has it, I didn't know that either). Sign the petition and spread the word! \nJust type in “Petition e-5353 (Citizenship and Immigration)”.

I stand with you Canada i didn't vote for this savk of shit

This administration will go down at the worst administration in all history of America. The people that voted for Trump will go down as the same despicable traders cool in all of American history. I hope you hear that what he says you’re great great kids you’re great great grandkids will understand by itself. You cannot wipe that out. You can’t burn that book.

all you had to do was to be tougher on the border didn’t your globalist-ass resign? just go away so Pierre Poilievre can be Prime Minister

To everybody in here that I didn't vote for Trump and all that other crap remember if you voted for Kamala nothing would be done right now and the fentanyl would still be pouring into America along with Untold millions of illegal aliens so don't think you're cleansing your soul

It's all because Melania and more importantly Ivanka swooned and gushed over Justin 8 years ago. Like, in front of the press and Jared and Donald. They didn't care! they were so overwhelmed by Justin's looks and Virility and French-Canadian Charm. Donald hates him for this meltdown, particularly by Ivanka.

As an American, I apologize for our President's stupidity. We didn't want this.

Elected on lowering inflation ! That didn’t age well ?

The producers of The Apprentice said they regret having made Trump look like a successful businessman when he was nothing even remotely close. Trump is the epitome of DEI (Didn't Earn It)

Fuck Trudick! Didn't Trump make him quit. ??

As an American I truly am sorry this is happening, I’m ashamed at what this administration is doing, I stand with Canada and all fellow European allies. Just know not all Americans are with this and we stand with you! It’s truly heartbreaking and the ones that didn’t vote for this person unfortunately have to go down with all of this…

Trudeau didn't mention the 23% carbon tax coming to Canada April 1st. On top of the other carbon tax increases. Make that make sense! U.S lucky they dud not implement this garbage under Biden.

This is not my Government I didn't vote for this but i am will fight against them and bring this nation back to a livable land once again. I'm willing to do what it takes to stop this dictatorship We must all stand together and not buy anything from these billionaire companies. So lets stand together and show them we are not the country to stand for this type of governing

Thank god my state won out blue, even if just barely. I would feel so embarrassed living in a red state. Wait nevermind I still am ashamed to be an American for the first time in my entire life, even though I didn't vote for him. Glory to Canada and Slava Ukraini, can't believe I have to remind people of this

13:01 taking action, this problem didn't start when trump came into office.

Trump is an absolute disgrace. Worst president since James Buchanan. Never in my life have I been more embarrassed for my country. As far as Trump, I didn't vote for that bastard but I'm still embarrassed and ashamed...

Wont back down from a fight?? Didn’t he resign? Go away JT

Why Trudeau, still gotta stroke TRUMP'S ego?! No,he is NOT a very smart guy!!! No, he didn't produce jobs! I wish Charlie Angus would've gave the speech. He don't kiss a**!

Trump is an asset of Vladimir Putin. When you look at who ultimately benefits from all the craziness because of Trump, it’s Putin. He is the benefactor of everything Trump is doing. We knew this a long time ago, he didn’t even want to peacefully transfer power, caused a riotous assault on the US capital, he has now given Putin everything when it comes to Ukraine, made a pathetic adolescent attempt to demonize Zelensky, and yet he still sits as the leader of the most power country in the world. He should be rotting in jail for the rest of his life. He has betrayed everything free democracies stand for.

I'm an American!!! I didn't ask for this!! I love Canada. I want peace

Didn't this guy resign?

Thank you, Canada, for standing up against our despicable leader. We deserve every bit of this, and from other countries as well. I apologize to the world on behalf of America. I didn’t vote for this nut house. I am sorry it has happened.

I loved Canada! I wish we didn’t have this monster FELON running my country.

I hope that Canadians know we didn’t all vote for this president. He is an embarrassment to the rest of us. He did say he likes stupid voters because they believe whatever I tell them.

The U.S. didn't launch a trade war. Trump did. He doesn't represent the will of the people. He represents a small slice of our population. Sad.

Well spoken, intelligent, and didn't dance to YMCA.

Sorry Canada. American here. I didn't vote for Donald Vonshiztenpants and can't stand MAGA...a national embarrassment

:( Half of us didn't vote for the moron in the White House. We are really sorry for everything dear Canada :(

Why didn't Canada started the border security long before trump came to the office if that many fentynal came through for years.
