_Trudeau can fix this by purging his position as Prime Minister to governor of Canada becoming the 51st state of America_

People in the comments are stupid. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Governor Trudeau just screwed Canada

CANADA has tariff United States for decades. Only when we do it back to them do they write. Sit down governor.

Funny Canada and US go hand and hand , but I haven’t seen Trudeau at the bargaining table with US on anything other then their own self interesst… odd how that works. hmm there’s just a empty seat next to trump and Putin, not your place I guess.. governors don’t usually do that sort of thing. ?

The Governor of Canada is mad ? ? ?

Why is the governor of Canada angry?

If Trudeau is the governor of Canada..trump is the devil in the u.s.

Bro just give up and join tthe United States will let you be governor you know I never in my entire life bought anything that said made in Canada

You believe in working together until you force your Truckers to take shots like farm animals, then you shut down their banks, then you stole their bitcoin. Don't lecture us about working together. Your own people can't stand you, and neither can we. I think it's an honor that President Trump calls you Governor, because you are terrible at leading a country. We care about you as a human, and a person created in the image of God, but most Americans are very unhappy with you lack of leadership, and style of tyrannical incompetence. Canada would be much better off with America's constitution and wealth. If you really want to work with America, let the people decide. America loves Canada and we welcome you with open arms.❤

Trudeau is a total shitbag disgrace of a governor!? Canada needs the USA more then we need them! Without the USA Canada will fail and we can annex them! So keep going! AMERICA AND AMERICANS FIRST! ??? GOD BLESS PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP AND HIS GREAT ADMINISTRATION!???MAGA! ???????????????

Oh look Governor of Canada has speaking

HA! The state of Canada needs to chill. That governor is a joke ?

The PM used harsh language? Donald calling him a governor is harsh, saying Canada does have a right to exist is harsh. The PM is being polite.

I'm European and I really can't understand how you can make an economic trade war with an ally like Canada, a close and so friendly neighbor.... A dumb decision not only for the W Post... And all of this will end up heavily impacting Americans as well, also because besides Canada there is Mexico, China and the whole of Europe. In such a war there are no winners.... I really hope that the American people understand this and start fighting for this nonsense to end. \nAnd when I then hear President Trudeau called governor.... Well I get even more angry. This shows even more (but there was no need) who trump is. A suburban bully. A rude man. An unscrupulous man who passes over everything and everyone.\nAmerica is turning into something I no longer recognize....\n\nKeep going Canada!

US economy is 10 times bigger than that of Canada so, Canada will collapse if they are not able to sell their goods and services to US markets.\nUS though may get a hit but will gain much when Canada will become the 51st state with Trudeau as it's Governor ?????✅

and after this, the orange one called the Canadian PM governor... Insulting not him, but Canada itself...

From a fellow Commonwealth country Australia ??here, totally support Canada ??. Trump is a wannabe dictator and referring to Prime Minister Trudeau, whether you agree with his politics or not, as a “Governor” is not only disrespectful to PM Trudeau but to all Canadians. In the same way Trump disrespected Zelenskyy. This president and the current GOP has no shame. Do not back down Canada!

America will remain unaffected by the recent tariff changes by the Governor of the Great State of Canada.

Canada is screwed. So 52 state I don’t think I want Justin to be governor

The Governor of the Great State of Canada is speaking against his President. The United States truly believes in its first amendment for free speech.?

Justin Trudeau, you did this to Canada. It’s so disrespectful calling the sitting President Donald. Why don’t you go raise carbon taxes, send our money to Ukraine and bring in another 10,000 Sudan’s when your people are sleeping on the street. This speech is a joke, look at yourself in the mirror and say all this to yourself. Also, stop lying that only a small percentage of fentanyl go into the states from Canada! You’re lying and need to stop holding our country hostage so the conservatives can clean up YOUR mess just like they’re doing in the US! Thanks to you many Canadians are excited and wish to become the 51st state because you’ve made Canada such a threat to the US National Security. You brought in millions of unvetted immigrants, terrorists and allowed so much crime. CNN shame on you. You’ve fed these poor people so many lies they have no idea of the corruption going on. Thank God Justin is gone. Bye Bye Governor Trudeau.

Just Ike our Country (Canada)\n\nSaid ; your president kept: insulting. \nOur Prime Minister- by cslling \n\nHim Governor : that is an insult to our \nPrime Minister of Canada ?? \n\n\nWe will never be. Part of the us ,\n\n\nAnd your country is. Cosing up to \n\nRussia ! \n\nCanada ?? is your friend \n\n\n\nIt’s all about. Your president \n\n\n\nWanting our country to become \n\nA part of America \n\n\nThat is what this is all about \n\n\nCanada ?? I’d not for saie \n\nAnd never will be. !

All the Democratic losers Canada is a tool along with governor Justin .. and it’s gonna hurt Canada a lot more than it’s gonna hurt us ???

the lady governor of canada

Trump insists on an apology from Zelensky because he claimes that Zelensky showed him respect - and at the same time Trump calls Justin Trudeau - who is the Prime Minister of Canada - for governor. Talk about showing respect. So I'm going to call Trump a smallminded, vindictive megalomaniac, a pathological liar and a sick narcissistic baby. Nobody respects Trump; they fear him because he is an unreliable madman with a lot of military strenght and (so far) economic strenght he can threaten everybody with. Pictures of Stalin and Hitler must be hanging in his bedroom...

Sounds like begging coming from the Governor of Canada

Who allowed GOVERNOR Trudeau to speak??? #CNN is again trying to influence the elections in the 51st state #Canada!

Trudeau and Canada has taken so much disrespect with all the discourse surrounding Canada being the “51st State” and “Governor Trudeau.” Addressing Trump as “Donald” fees like such a nice subtle little jab ?

clown of Canada Trudeau, had he not been governor of Canada situation would have been different

???? who cares what the governor of Canada has to say

Canada lost the minute the governor of Canada opened his pie hole.

And the latest from Trump now is that he is upset about Canada countering with tariffs, calling Trudeau for governor of Canada, another 51st state reference? is that he could increase the tariffs on Canada. Mr Trump, you fool, what goes around comes around.

Commie Canada and CNN a great combo. Get rid of your Governor Canada. He's killing you

Huffing and puffing. They should honestly tell Canadians what the Bank of Canada governor said. Canadians should brace for impact for a recession the likes of which they have not seen. Get ready with your 6 month salary savings and scaling down on everything. Good to act tough till it starts biting home like the carbon tax

Trump says tariffs on Canada will increase if Canada imposes retaliatory tariffs.\n\n“Governor Trudeau” ?

I thought governor Trudeau already resigned ?. Surprised to see him on screen again. He's more worried about the people of USA than Canada which is already in crisis. ?

All Governor Trudeau talking about a non-existent trade War these are just tariffs and in any way shape and form a war? Canada's military is so underfunded by Governor Trudeau Canada would almost certainly lose any conflict at ever thought with America or any tier one adversary, my suggestion Mr Trudeau you need to exit stage left and make room for somebody who has the courage to deal with the Tangerine bird

What’s the former governor of Canada gonna do about any of it ?

Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!

OH, NOW THE GOVERNOR OF CANADA HAS A LOT TO SAY. HOW ABOUT STARTING OFF WITH? I KNOW WE 0 300 MILLION DOLLARS EVERY YEAR TO AMERICA. LET'S START TRYING TO PAY THAT BACK AND GET BACK ON THE RIGHT TARIFF ROAD... THAT'S THE MOST I'VE HEARD THIS MAN TALK, OTHERWISE HE'S ALWAYS TALKING BLAH, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.TYPICAL LIBERAL

Meanwhile TRUMP ON TRUTH SOCIAL -\n\nPlease explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!\n\n????

Who is most likely to be the next governor of CANADA?

The illegals have to enter Canada first at some point and in some way and it's obvious that Canada has dropped the ball on it's own border and immigration controls and is just pointing the way to the US border . This is a big reason why relations with Justin Trudeau and Trump have gone sour . Why is the New York Mayor and the Governor not being arrested ? Going to need a wall around New York .

Please pull finding from the state of Canada. Canadians please vote out your governor

Whoa....this is BS. Why don't you show the thousands of migrants being bussed to the Canadian border at Roxham Road Quebec by New Yorks governor. This isnt Canada's fault.

For the Canadians apologizing for migrants crossing to New York, did they apologize to you for the hundreds of thousands that crossed from the US into Canada? For those saying shame on the Governor for letting them come in to New York, did they also say shame on the mayor of New York City for loading up busses with migrants and dropping them off close to the Canadian border? Go ahead, get juvenile and scream names at me for telling the truth.

Governor Trudeau best secure that border. I don't care that your state of Canada has become an islamic terror hub, but you better keep them up north. If not you will be removed from your governors mansion and put in Prison.

That's Total B.S. saying Canada is protecting the Border , Yeah right, noway the Governor is going to do anything for America, except Borrow Millions and never Repay the u s.

What is sickening and sad is that the leader of the Conservative Party in Canada fully, absolutely endorses everything Donald Trump does. Pierre. is anti-Canadian Pierre is anti-liberal anti-government, but pro Republican pro Trump and Pro Project 2025. Pierre is a horrible, terrible, evil person to Canada and Canadians Pierre wants to be leader of the Republican Party of Canada and governor of the 51st state.

Canadians will be living like cave men in caves before this tariff war ends. The smart money is on compliance by Justine Trudeau Governor of Canada.
