I feel sorry for al the employees and families in America and around the world that are going to lose jobs.. Trump Vance Rubio Musk spoilt brats won't care sitting back in thier multi million dollar houses and mansions..

Trump is trash. Sorry Canada. Most of my fellow Americans are in the find out stage.

I am never a fan of our Prime Minister but today, he got my full respect and admiration. We all know it is not about Fentanyl or illegal immigrants crossing from Canada as little as they were. Donald Trump is just using these as excuse. He is cozying up with US' one of two prime adversaries - Russia and China - and whacking friends and allies, alienating the United States. Donald Trump probably is considering authoritarian rule over democracy. I can't wait for the day that his dumb action will whack him back. Sorry Americans, you are still our friends, but not your government.

We don't need these resources we buy from them. We have a trillion dollar deficit annually with Canada, make THAT make sense. Sorry Trump wants to even that out a little?

I no longer believe there is anything Trump could do to deter his supporters. He’s openly aligning with dictators and bullying our allies, dismantling checks and balances and consolidating power, even talked about a third term?! Everyone in the government going along with him clearly has dollar signs in their eyes and a “if you can’t beat him, join him” mentality. Sorry Canadians. If you’re worried, I promise we are too. At least I am.

My apologies to the world for Trump's and Vance's betrayal to our allies and their embarrassing bullying and pompous attitude shown towards President Zelenskyy. I and many other Americans are sincerely sorry for Trump's actions .

Canada, I am sorry for the acts of Donald J. Trump, who does not speak for me (and I am confident most of the people of the USA). If I could change Trump's actions directly, I would.\nI believe your government is taking the correct actions in response and I do not find fault in that. You are our friends. I/we will suffer from Trump's actions. I am sorry for us all.\nMay God save the free world.\n❤❤❤

Trump is a crazy immoral liar who wants to be a dictator and he’s trying to ruin the country so that he can be. I hope the people who voted for him are happy. It was clear, and he even described what he would do. I am very sorry it is hurting our friends and allies, as well as the U.S. people, especially Canada, Germany, and France..

Sorry to say, but this is a dumb move from trump

I am so sorry for what trump is doing. I am with you.

My heart hurts watching this. As an American, I respect and agree with Prime Minister Trudeau. Canada has been a kind and generous ally, and our current government leaders are just coming up with excuses for this stupid ass trade war. \n\nI am so sorry to all the Canadian citizens whom this negatively impacts. I hope you will show grace to those of us who voted against Trump and who continue to stand up to this tyrant.

I'm sorry about this viscous & needless act! I'm an American & I understand completely why Canadian's are upset. I also understand why you're going to retaliate, if you didn't, then I'd question your leadership. Canada has to do what's right for its people and Americans will understand why Canada has to do whatever it has to do for its People and Country. Trump's plan to make Canada the 51st State is by putting economic pressure on Canada until it can't stand anymore. This is his plan and now you can prepare Canadians for the fight ahead. God Bless Canada!!!

From the USA: Not everyone here follows a dictator even though he somehow managed to get a second term. Even worse than Trump are the people who still follow him. SORRY Canada...

There are no winners in a trade war. True. Look at history. So sorry about this decision by Trump. This is a very clear speech. May the United States powers that be reconsider this current tariff and fentanyl issues. As an American citizen I wish to work with Canadians and your government. Generations of common goals and friendship need to be upheld. My wish is for reconciliation.

So many Americans are so horrified by what Trump is doing. We are so sorry. Please know this.

40 million people live in Canada. I’m sure USA would do alright without Canada. This clown speaks on Americans like he is one, truly disrespectful. This guy is a big talker like Obama but soft. People like him are what causes stagnation and unemployment. Trump sells strength security fairness. Sorry if it hurts your little feelings.

Sorry he Trump is not smart he is stupid cant read loves farting fast food and shiting in dipers oh ya what a Felon this guy is soon he will loose his teeth jd vance waiting for that.I am a US Veteran and iam so ashamed that this is really going on and i will tell you this shame on MEGA GOD BLESS THE EU.

Trump is not an American!\nWe the people are made nauseous by this aberration! I am so sorry that my fellow Americans voted for this loser!

I’m an American and I just want to apologize to Canada. You have always been a good neighbor and a friend. You don’t deserve this. The Donald Trump version of America has shown that its treaties and its word are meaningless by betraying its own agreements with you. I am truly sorry. And I urge you to do what you need to do to protect yourself. The truth is that the America we all once knew, the one I grew up in, is gone.

Speaking as an American in the Detroit area, we are sorry this is happening! Contrary to what the Trump administration is saying, the majority of Americans DID NOT vote for him or this utter BS. We are watching in horror. We know Canada, Mexico and Europe are our friends and allies, no matter what spin Trump spews out

I speak as a Californian. I am so, so terribly sorry, Canada. I never voted for tRump, ever. I hate him in every way. This is all so heartbreaking. ?? Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, for standing up for your entire country. Our president is destroying America and handing us over to Russia. ? I stand with Canafa, Ukraine, Mexico and democracies of the world.

Canada doesn't seem to understand that we don't need them. We can make everything in america its simple. Thats the route trump is going. Sorry canada but time to take care of yourself. Its sad but canada should be able to take care of it's ppl on its own

From the US here Good job I am glad. Tell that idiot and the us citizens what a liar Trump really is. He didn't want the presidency. He only wanted to stay out of jail. I truly beleive this. So he letting Elon run the presidents office. A total bunch of idiots. They have fired 1000s of us government workers. I really don't think he is smart person Justin. I'm from ky. And I can garentee ypu it has nothing to do about drugs. Stick it to the sorry idiots. Again good job Justin.

I’m with Canada on this matter. We don’t betray our friends like that. I will commit my support on this issue by using whatever “freedom of speech” I have and by inserting my opposing view in pro-trump videos that speak ill of Canada. Thank you Trudeau, and I am sorry.

I live in the USA. I believe this is what needs to happen in order to show Trump just how terrible he is at his job. He is ruining our country. We love you, Canada. We are so sorry that the majority voted this buffoon into our government. It's embarrassing and it's scary.

Trump does not care about Canadians,he doesn't care about Americans trump only cares about Russia and pleasing putin,as an American i am sorry people in our country made a bad mistake putting him back in after we got him out even then he tried to overthrow our government, he is a 34 count felon those thing were not enough to hold him off i am not proud to be an American i am ashamed of my country

I'm so sorry that I vote for this president, Donald Trump, hi is doing to many stupid things including his loss fuckin mig mouth.

Thanks President Trump!\nIt’s about time! Sorry not sorry Canada. Keep your goods. We will buy American.

I’m a NEVER Trumper. A ?in a red state. Trump does not represent me nor my morals and convictions. I was physically ill watching him and his pup Vance absolutely bully President Zelenskyy. I’m sorry that this is what half of the country voted for. I’m disgusted that I had family and friends who refused to see him for who he is. I’m so sorry to all those who didn’t vote for him yet we will also be aligned with him. I greatly appreciate you Prime Minister Trudeau. Thank you to those in other countries that realize not all Americans wanted this. Not all Americans bowed a knee to him. Thank you for your kindness.

I’m so sorry, Canada. Don’t take it personally. trump is insane. Totally crazy! It cannot be reasoned with. I now understand how Hitler got into power.

Americans we are sorry booing anthem. Please get through Trump. Thanks for the worlds reaction and Americans. Terrible mistake.

Sorry for trump king of The Jokers??

Canada, the American people don't want this and a lot of Trump supporters didn't want this either. I'm sorry that y'all too have to suffer and deal with a man that doesn't lead your country. Believe me I would swap with y'all tomorrow. \n\nIt's amazing how Canada came up with how many billions for border patrol but we can't get Congress to pass a bill. President Biden tried to get a bill through Congress within his first 100 days and they wouldn't pass it then either. We have scanners sitting at the Mexican Border that will detect Fentanyl but Congress would approve using them either. Everyone needs to find out how their Representative voted on that bill and make sure they are not in office next time. \n\nI don't know how this man got elected but I feel like Musk and Starlink helped him win. I just heard that Starlink is what was used to send the results in the swing states. Musk told someone an hour before polls closed that Trump was the winner, with his evil laugh and let's not forget Trump telling his supporters that they didn't need to vote cause he will win without them. That's fishy. \n\n\nY'all what do we do if he won't leave office? What do we do then? I know he just got in the White House but it's never too early to have a plan to get him out. They worked on Project 2025 for 4 years and now it's all falling into place. OMG! What are we going to do?

Trump thinks he can win in a trade war. Trump is a buffoon. Sorry Canada and Europe Trump is busy trying to appease Putin.

Trudeau, my brother, My words cannot begin to express to you or your people just how genuinely sorry I am for my country's utterly repulsive and inexcusable behavior throughout the last month and a half and for the downright cruel, hostile treatment you've suffered at the hands of the most incompetent, greedy, poorly educated, narcissistic, racist, sexist, xenophobic buffoon to ever preside over the United States. Not only is Donald Trump an overly privileged, pathetic, whiney crybaby who literally folds his arms, stomps his feet, and launches an all out temper tantrum whenever he doesn't get his way or when someone else has the TV remote, he is a dangerously delusional, high stakes risk taker who wouldn't think twice about using his own mother or child as a human body shield if he thought his life were in danger. There is absolutely no value, principle, moral or ethic he wouldn't betray without hesitation if he suspects there is anything at all to be gained - you know, the type of guy who would poison the entire neighborhood in order to hoard all the complimentary tampons and lip gloss samples from his neighbors' mail boxes just to ensure that he got first dibs on everything before anyone else. Incidentally, he is also the same type of guy who pockets all the flavored mini coffee creamers from the gas station and all the paper bed sheets and Qtips from the doctor's office. I wouldn't put it past him to steal the waitresses' tips off tabletops on his way out the door upon leaving McDonald's. In fact, I would bet everything that he steals the donation jars for Jerry's Kids at the local supermarket. I mean, its already a given that he is likely the guy who filed a lawsuit a few summers back against a sweet, innocent littls FOUR year old boy for having a lemonade stand on property not zoned for commercial use. If it wasn't Trump then I'm sure it's only because he was too busy ordering the National Guard to power hose and pepper spray the 30 or so elderly nuns who had been distributing bottled water to folks demonstrating in support of Black Lives Matter on the hottest day of the year. Satisfied in his victorious battle against the nuns - 9 of whom had been hospitalized for critical injuries including the 92 year old Mother Superior who suffered massive brain bleed, swelling and concussion due to the excessive force of the power hose and an 87 year old nun who lost permanent sight in one eye due to the pepper spray - Trump had the nerve to pose for a publicity shot in front of the church while holding a Bible - UPSIDE DOWN - and scrunching and contorting his face into that hideous trademark scowl he does ever so naturally. Yep. This is the man my fellow Americans chose to represent our nation as President - a man who beats up 90 year old nuns and imposes 25% tax hikes to our ONLY FRIEND in the entire world simply for refusing to accept his invitation for statehood. I mean, come on, Trudeau, is that really asking too much of you? Was it really worth bruising Donny's fragile little ego and sending him into a fit of rage? (Seriously, though, I suspect he really does feel as though you are in the wrong for refusing to humor his delusions and thus embarrassing him in front of all his Russian dictator and Ku Klux Klan buddies.)\nOnce again, I do humbly apologize and I promise I will support whatever actions you choose to take and I will help you in any way you deem is best. \nMuch love and peace always, \nMs. S. Delois Jackson

Trump launched the trade war that very few people in the US wanted, and those who did want it don't understand how the economy works and probably didn't graduate grade school. I'm sorry to our Canadian friends and neighbors. The US is a world embarrassment.

American here , we stand with Canada ?. We hate what's happening, please don't hate us! We are so sorry about tRump.

Trump is a Putin puppet. As an American, I am so sorry we are at this place with our neighbors.

I’m sorry why do people think trump is afraid of Russia ? Russia is choking against Ukraine in a war right now . Ukraine, how could they ever win a war against America when it’s taken them 3 years to still not win the war against Ukraine, the same country who’s president got kicked out of the White House ?

Yeah I’m sorry but he calls for Trump to be civil and calls him dumb and calls him Donald? Canada is about to see fun times.

As an American that did not nor never would vote for trump....there is no making sense out of his idiocy. He has made us less safe in the world, he has humiliated America. I cannot believe this is happening in my country, I'm so sad and sorry for the chaos he and the Republicans are causing.

As an American I can say with a full heart that I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. Donald Trump is a pig and the majority of the American people are complete and utter assholes for electing this deranged demagogue piece of shit. To the world at large, I'm deeply sorry for the stupidity of my people.

I am American and am embarrassed by Donald Trump. I am so sorry and suffer along with you. Incidentally half of the Americans did not vote for him. Please pray for us.

I'm sorry Trump is doing this. I think you and Canada are wonderful. My great grandmother was born in Canada. Putin and Trump are evil.

Trump is a joke get him and his golf club out of Ireland . Trump supporters are completely delusional . So sorry for the americans with half a brain ..........Trump is as mad as putin wake up maga idiots ........

What a nightmare, I'm so sorry your people and American innocent people are going to suffer the consequences of Trumps actions.\nLove to you, Canada.\nFrom Australia ❤

American here, I support you, Canada. I didn't vote for Trump. He is embarrassing our country. I am so sorry he's treating you badly. If your country wasn't so cold, I'd move to Canada in a heartbeat! You deserve to be treated better.

This trump dickweed is out of control, creating a authoritarian attitude and hes slowly tearing shit apart so we as citizens, have no choices, no education...anybody else feeling hopeless and helpless. This is beyond sick. Trudeau and Canada, hes a dumb guy. He is. I'm so sorry to the Candians, Mexico, and Ukraine. This idiot has no loyalty to anyone.

I'm so very sorry we have president Trump. He is hurting this country and many other countries. I'm beside myself. The man only cares about money. Doesn't care who he hurts to get it.

Justin Trudeau I believe what your saying and I totally disagree in Trumps tariff wars. I am sorry we are here. When Trump asks again about become a state of America tell him to go screw himself.
