canada exports 75+% of its overall products into the united states, it only imports 50ish% overall products from the united states of america. This is why the tariffs are in place. Agree or disagree, this is why trump is doing what hes doing. Our country is in shambles and we need our allies to pump money into our economy or else it will only get worse in our country. And both canada and mexico are outraged by the simple way trump is approaching this.

I am american. I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. None of this makes sense. Trump is a Treasonous traitor Putins puppet and a domestic terrorist with a maga cult taking a hostel government takeover for Putin. \nTrump is doing Putins bidding destroying America from within. He doesn't care about you, Ukraine or the American people. He lies and spreads Russian propaganda.

Why Canada, Mexico, or any other country in the world doesn’t have the problem of drugs except United States of America. Why is that.? Think about it, we are the consumer and want to Party Up like there is no tomorrow. So Donald trump get your S.H.I.# in gear and clean up your mess first before you point fingers.

I think Canada is the best partner you can have. Unfortunately, I fear that Trump has no interest in good relations with civilized partners, whether in America, Europe or worldwide. I can well imagine that he is pursuing completely different goals - Moscow is probably just a foretaste ... . Stay strong!

Here is a list of tariffs Canada Imposes on U.S.\nGoods:\n\n⁃ Dairy Products:\n⁃ Milk: 270%\n⁃ Cheese: 245%\n⁃ Butter: 298%\n⁃ Poultry: 238%\n-Eggs: 163%\n⁃ Barley: 160%\n⁃ Wheat: 94%\n⁃ Sugar: 265%\n⁃ Peanut Butter: 295%\n⁃ Rice: 150%\n⁃ Vegetables: 100%\n⁃ Fish Products: 100%\n⁃ Lumber: 20%\n⁃ Shoes: 30%\n⁃ Cocoa: 30%\n⁃ Metals: 25%\n⁃ Wool: 30%\n⁃ Tobacco: 100+%\n\nTrumps responsibility as the President of The United States of America is to the American people.

I like this guy, Canada Prime Minister, young and intelligent. I think Canada should let him lead the country for one more year because he is a good leader and I really do respect a leadership like that. I don’t like Trump, he want to turn America just like China and Russia country.

Does Canada have a Department of Defense? The lack of respect is wild. Donald..? President Trump is the protocol. He represents the office of the United States of America. Make no mistake ask UK and Ukraine to provide defense. Pull the plug no need to be called a predator by your own neighbor... ?

My question is why retaliate at all? If tariffs are paid for by the country that imposes them then just let America pay the higher prices and keep imports in Canada at a lower cost. What am I missing?

Stay Strong Canada We are trapped here in the USA this is not America anymore American on truly support what you have to do... as far as the jobs he's already laying people off all over the place he's taken away or Healthcare he's taken away or Freedom he's taken away a financial Social Security and Medicare soon

I think I want to move to Canada. America is full of shit too much gun violence. Nobody cares about all the innocent children that are dying and now we have a president who wants to make everybody’s lives miserable. For all of you that voted for Trump. I hope you see the truth of what he’s about a worthless individual a narcissistic psycho make America great that is the worst saying of all time he’s making America lousy.

Time to take Canada over sorry time to enter a new world Make America Great again

Trump wants the World to collapse so his billionaires and america can buy up the stock market and dominate the World. It’s not trade blocks, it’s Dictator blocks. If that doesn’t work he’ll invade Canada and Mexico most likely and just take it. At this point, I hope America implodes. Either way it’s a mass suicide. Trump isn’t a smart man, he’s an evil man. And people who persist in making excuses for this creature are just traitors, the lowest of the low, stupid, greedy war mongers.

Dear Canada with love from your other neighbor Greenland/Denmark,\n\nWe stand shoulder to shoulder with you, and from my Danish perspective you are a more European country than a country in North America and I hope to see the Canadian flag, together with our Danish. in Brussels at the EU headquarters where you mediate into our common European family EU ...\n\nDear Canada you are just as naturally an EU country as Germany and France and my Denmark is,

When Canada’s prime minister cares more about Americans than the current president does… you know America is in trouble….

America doesn't need Canada. It's the other way around. Without America, Canada will fold.

Canada put tariffs on America and now they are upset that we put the exact amount of tariffs on them??? No country is getting any more tariffs than what they already had on America. Sorry but Americans need our money right now, our country is going bankrupt but you don’t care about that, you only care about yourselves. Well Americans will do what we need to do to rescue our country. Get over yourselves. If you had no tariffs on America then you wouldn’t have them on you now.

CANADAS TARRIFFS ON AMERICANS GOODS ARE WAY HIGHER SOME OF THEM WAY ABOVE 270 PERCENT SO ITS ONLY FAIR WE DO THE SAME WAKE UP SHEEPLE THESE COUNTRIES ARE RIPPING AMERICA OFF

Why are we blaming fentanyl on Canada and Mexico? Or even China or Colombia, or wherever the hell it's produced? Last I checked, there were no Mexicans or Canadians coming over here and injecting people with syringes in the middle of the street.\nThe US refuses to legalize drugs, or even decriminalize them... and then we're surprised how there is a rampant black market with - gasp - unsafe drugs. GTFOH (, America).

It’s what happens when you give a greedy narcissistic person, the reins to a country, with no oversight, or controls! Heads-up Canada keep up the fight you have Allies across the pond, they will buy your goods, and we down here in America will suffer, until someone takes the reins!

Canada has a leader, and America has a clown.

Mexican american here. I stand with u, canada and mexico. I will still buy Canada made and mexico made. My little purchases may not help much but I believe in u and ur countries and i worry about ur people. I apologize for the idiocy and hate here in America. Love from texas.

The Good smart thinking people in America ?? do NOT want ? Trump making bad relations with Canada ?.

Stop ripping America off Canada

What's America doing to stop their illegal flow of drugs and guns into Canada. 6-8 weeks ago, our Canadian border services seized 900kg of cocaine crossing the Detroit border!

This guy is absolute idiot. America doesn’t need Canada. Canada needs the USA. This guy is a communist. Trump is trying to stop an endless war with casualties and this clown is trying to compare it to tariffs. And who is watching this clown show called CNN THE FAKE NEWS CHANNEL. Lol.

Im out, i love America, God bless America and the tough , take no shit American people..and F crooked Canada gaining wealth from ripping us off....

President Trudeau. I applaud you for your honest and direct support to your people. \nI have decided that I will not stand with the American flag on holiday at our yearly sports fixtures to the USA. I will not step foot in that country again until these criminals running this country are gone. My trips twice a year will be in Canada instead. \nI’m from the UK, and we cannot believe the outrageous amount of egotism coming out of America with Musk, Trump, Vance and all his spineless minions and supporters. To all the USA victims, I pray you get through the next bumpy 4 long years with your traitors. God bless you all.

I stand with Canada, love from England. America has never been so alone, you voted in a traitor to democracy, and you have sold out your national pride to the USSR. \nThe new North Korea of the western world.

Fentanyl coming in from Canada to the USA is 0.02 %. Soo... trump is lying about that. Truth is that Melania likes Justin Trudeau. He's younger and Much better looking than Old Man trump, And THAT gets under trumps thin skin. Soo thats why he's trying to belittle Trudeau in front of America and Canada. If trump didn't have $$$$ ? No woman would give him a second look even. He looks like and talks like a Ditty Ole Pervert just like His Pal And Good Friend Geoffrey Epstein did leering at young woman. Soo that's why he's shooting off his poisoned mouth wanting Our Great Country as the 51st state. Canada's tougher than he thinks and he'll see that When the Going gets Tuff, Canadians stand up for Ourselves!!!

Canada Is America's Closest Traders

Born and raised living in Ontario Canada and I applaud Trump Canada has had a 35 to 40% tariff on American goods. Only difference is we call a duty tax? It’s about time America stuck it back to us.

America is the biggest bully. This is how they treat the best brother Canada. Totally support Canadians from Aus ??

Can America just be part of Canada instead of what we have. Please dont stop us from coming for ayslum

Respect to Canada from Switzerland. Trump will go down as the president who destroyed America.

From America, I stand with Canada they ain't traitors. Trump is a traitor

As an American I want to apologize and encourage Canada to stay strong. Remember there are millions of us here in America that do not want this either and want nothing more than for this to all be a bad dream.

Canada is Avery peaceful country they adores America please Trump let peace reign in your heart

Can I please cone to Canada as an American refugee. I swear I wont ask a thing from anyone all I want is to escape this madness in America

I stand with Canada, as long as trump and his disgusting government pollutes the Whitehouse, America doesn’t exist. trump needs to go to Russia to be with his boycrush??????

??America loves you Canada our president doesn’t reflect our entire country and what we stand on AMERICA STANDS FOR CANADIANS ??

Americas uranium for its nuclear weapons comes from Canada. Putin must be loving this

So proud of you speaking the truth\nI hope Canada , Canadian not upset with the people of our country so called America, we ,the people, American, real country loving Americans, love your country, love, peace, love working together, love safe society, love good education, love affordable healthcare, just like yours, love to see happiness and peaceful in the world. \n\nUnfortunately , we have been trusting the wrong leaders for past decades, more and more damage done to our own lives because of the lying, corrupt government, misguided policies, manipulation, incompetence, corruption, corruption, and more corruption.\nThe people whom we elect, are the ones that stealing from us .\n\nUnless the people wake up, we are misguided to no end.\nWe have no one to blame but ourselves.

What Trump seems to try to get at most is the unfair act of the USMCA. Most trades benefited Canada, while Canada refused to provide the same fair trades. Sometimes Trump does say things that may have gone off track like fentyl handling on Canada's end and border handling. It seems like our borders at the time were less strict on the American side versus the Canadian side of the border. Trump did state multiple times that most countries like Canada were unfair to USA. Even with the USMCA, America got screwed by Mexico as will. America has been there helping and supporting and submitting to every country. Yet failed to support our own people when we need it, especially to clear up our own debts. Sadly, America is falling behind due to poor handling of Government Democrat corruption. I am neutral as both parties don't always provide the best solution for everyone. You have to pick who can help the American people. Seeing how corrupt the Democrats has ran America and the defacto behind of all the wars and money laundering has surprised me, and I hope the change with Trump will help everyone realize how screwed we all are in correcting those corruption that isn't really needed.

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.❤

CNN hates America. We don’t need more friends like Canada. Like having a groupies around. No benefit. Just a net drain.

Less than 1% of the population in America is in our Military. 1% of our problems coming from Canada is a lot of people and drugs.

I'm Puerto ?? Rican American USPS employee. For the first time in my 59 years of life, I would rather live in Canada. \nShame on us America ?

What about the illegal guns coming into Canada from America. Fix that Trump

For all the American's siding with Canada. Did you know Canada has never fulfilled its obligation to Nato. they only pay 1% of its gdp. They are supposed to pat 2%. The united States has been carrying the water for Canada and other countries so they can flaunt social programs like universal healthcare. If they paid their fair share for defense they would not be able to afford it. Its about time these countries start paying the United states back. Since Canada became a member of Nato in 1949 they have never fulfilled their payment obligation, but enjoyed the security of being a member. America pays 4.5% and some other years 6% of our gdp to NATO. with out the US there is no NATO. Maybe Canada should take over for the US. Like that will happen. If Canada was the 51st state they would be the 4th poorest state. Not trying to be mean this is just reality. The dictator of Canada has never cared about his people, or he would have simply secured your damn border. https://www.forcesnews.com/news/world/nato-which-countries-pay-their-share-defence

tRUMP - The Orange Idiot is going to destroy America but as it is sinking MAGA Cultists will scream how their glorious leader is working for them when in actual fact he is ONLY interested in lining the pockets of his billionaire friends. Go for it Canada?
