Where are the people who voted him? Let me guess, hiding underneath a rock. Must be so embarrassed for voting for that clown. Trump is all about freedom of speech. Stand up and protest this fool. He will sell out the American people to Putin. As a Canadian thank you world for all the support. We all have a duty to fight evil. Donald is the devil in sheeps clothing.

T.....mp is Mad. Congress must stop him and the VP , period. Full stop. Americans are now held prisoners of his criminal madness

As an American, I stand with Canada.

Trudeau is my hero. Compare him with orange buffoon and you know why we have better politicians. I feel sorry for my American brothers and sisters, if they might hurt due to all these non-sense. We equally feel for you but put yourself in our shoes and think!!!!

Unfortunately Trump and Musk are forming an oligarchy and\ncouldn’t care less about American citizens. Just hope our allies can move in to help us when we get rid of this admin.

I am a Black American. 90 percent of my people didn't vote for this. I stand with Canada. lol

Ashamed American here, I stand with Canada!

You know I'm so sorry this idiot did this to you when I'm from the United States and I'm really sorry you're right the world's going to go crazy and it's going to be the United States it's going to pay for it and you know maybe one day we can all move to Canada where we can have a better life than to Trump's out of office if he doesn't become a dictator you never know what could happen in life he already is a dictator I finally got away from all that and we all came in the United States for peace not for what we're going through right now I'm sorry Canada sorry Mexico I'm sorry the rest of the world but I voted the right way and other people voted the wrong way and some people are understanding what they did and some people are still sticking by what they did so hopefully somewhere else could be some peace for some Americans in some way or another

As an American I speak for many that we did not want this for our countries and I condemn our President for being just a bully and a fool. Its so nice hear a leader speak with intelligence and compassion. Mr. Trudeau and the people of Canada I stand with you

As an American, I respect Canada as a friend and neighbor. I stand with Canada and not the crybaby in the white house. Trump and his administration needs to be removed from office immediately. Trump voters are about to be in the find out phase.... Do you think they will storm the White House again? Something has to change... How can no one stand up to Trump...

Most Americans stand with Canada ?? we apologize for our president who suffers from ‘LDS’ he’s just a said pathetic human do what you must. Do not be bullied by a little man like Trump smack him down.

I had always thought Americans prided themselves on being rugged individualists. I see many of you here would blame Canada, shirking responsibility for your shitty little life. \nIf you’ve been handed a raw deal it’s your fault. Not Canadas. Grow a pair of nuts \nFO ??\n????

America is now a pariah state. I'm a Brit, and I have traded all my shares that were in American companies, and my son has cancelled a trip there. He's going to Canada instead. America will not see one penny of our money.

Don't you dare to speak to our president like that. Who the hell are you? He is not Donald for you, he is Mr. President for you. And all American citizens, who support the democrats, stop this hate, this is your Country too.

Well, us american people don't want this either.It's just that we got some President that has a high Eagle trip and he's picking the wrong allies, he needs to be impeached.

As an American, I want to apologize for a man I didn’t vote for but is bringing your people harm, hate and I am proud of you Canada and your people.

Yay Canada! That’s the right response. I just wish Trudeau could say Trump and his dictator ship administration and not the Americans because half of us here hate that man and completely disagree with his policies.

Canada is not a state of the U.S.A., Canada is getting these tariffs as their leader is a socialist globalist, whose agenda is an enemy of the American people. Trump knows this and is starting to rol out the consequences. More lies from the globalist.

Dude no one wants this. Who the hell voted for this? As an American who did NOT vote for trump, I don't want this at all. This is bullshit.

Embarrassed to be an American.

I am one of the millions of Americans who despise Donald Trump. He and his MAGAts are ignorant fools. Keep up the good work, Canada!\n\nI would be thrilled to migrate north to you, although you are probably being overwhelmed by inquiries from other Americans eager to do the same.

As an American I don't want this either but yes OUR government Is HURTING everyone, I support your efforts to protect YOUR country. You are doing exactly what you need to do. Not all of us are stupid.

How come no one talks about the trade war Canada imposes on the United States. Who is asking about the tariffs they impose on us?? Lmfao ?.. can we get journalism that gives us both sides of the argument??? That’s what Americans actually want

Donald Trump and his gangsters are preparing for the biggest heist in the history of the world , they will deplete Americans of all they have,....and after that they will look for asylum in Russia.

When are Americans going to understand that Trump is executing Putin's playbook to become America's Tsar.

as a Canadian, i would like to thank Donald and Elon for their plans to implement the most innovative degrowth agenda imaginable. why dance around the edges like Canada has with its consumer carbon tax that rebated more money to most citizens than they spent on carbon taxes ? no, the DOGE solution to addressing climate change is much better .. just cripple the three north american economies with tariffs, put hundreds of thousands of citizens out of work, and make the Trump tax cuts permanent so that the federal government is broke as well. no more money means no more spending or consuming .. it's a win for the entire planet !!

Go Canada, let him have it. Know that most Americans don’t support his actions. More than half of us DID NOT vote for him, and those that did likely had no idea what tariffs were or certainly didn’t understand how they work. Though I didn’t vote for him, I am so embarrassed and I am so sorry to the entire world for the horrible decision so many people in my country have made.

Well spoken Trudeau. Its now up to the American people to remove the government it voted for

America can keep their goods.\n Trump has created all this and the rest of the world should wash their hands of Trump's deals.\n\nThe American people should be going crazy because of the power they have given Trump.\n\nCrazy times

If an American works to take down America, is it not treason? Can someone please explain to me how or if there is some logic that I do not see?

I remember when we had a president that could speak in complete sentences without any name calling and pointing fingers at everyone else. Canada, you are doing exactly what you do when you see a bully, you stand up and fight back. As an American, I’m so embarrassed by trump’s behavior but sadly I am not surprised.

As an American, I hear the Canadian President. I am sorry about this. Canada is American Neighbor and friend. I dont agree with Trump with this tariffs.

Being an American, I am EMBARRASED by what Trump has done. This is NOT how you treat a friend like Canada, and a partner in this world. Trump is an a$$hole and he must be stopped! \nI will consider you a friend and ally forever and what is being done makes absolutely NO sense! Orange Felon is not making sense! He's delusional and stupid. Go Canada!! Don't take this crap from Orange Felon! We'll take care of that POS POTUS and make him pay dearly for what he has done!

I just don't understand why is Canada responsible for American junkies? Canadians are not forcing Americans to get high. trump educates your people about drug addiction.

As an American, I really liked Trudeau's speech. I thought he did a great job explaining everything and responding to this situation. I appreciate his words to the American people. There's just one thing he said that was inaccurate... trump is NOT a smart guy!!

I think Americans are going to have to learn the hard way that we voted in a terrible man who is even more unrestrained than the first time. The best outcome of this lose-lose situation for Republican voters is to feel the financial pain of Trump's actions. Maybe it can disillusion his cult following of heedlessly surrendering their voting power to him. With enough opposition pressured on Republicans in Congress, they may finally find a backbone and stand up for all Americans while the Democrats twiddle their thumbs.

Americans did not launch this trade war . Dumb and dumber did this. trump os the worst POTUS in history

Dear American friends, get rid of Trump before it's too late.

Trudumb, a friend dose not take and never return generosity. The current administration is just demonstrating how much of the American tax dollars go to Canada. About $300B, sounds like you all get more than any US state. \n\nFYI: Canada has the best fence in the world…it’s called the United States of America!!!

As an American, I agree with ya'll and do not blame ya'll for what you do. Just know that most of us Americans do not agree with what's going on with our government right now.

So sorry Canada I was born there in Quebec Canada and have lived here since childhood in the US you are our neighbors and I can’t believe this is happening and my hopes are that this will all be settled. We didn’t vote for Trump so please believe as Americans that we don’t agree with this that we are not all as Americans are on board with this

i heard canada already had tariffs on american goods. is this true or false??? media please explain

American and Texan here and I support Canada 100% — Trump, Vance and all the MAGAtts that still support them are pieces of shit. We are broken but we will “correct” this

Who the hell is this lady talking about anti-Americanism? Does she even know what she's talking about? Blame D Trump for all this instead.

Not all Americans voted for the orange one.

I'm African American. Will I be welcomed in Canada?

Most Americans are sick and tired of the Orange drama queen creating chaos every single day and craving for attention. Tuck Frump! He does NOT represent all Americans.

What Trump do now it's a desastre for a poor American people, they gonna feel all this taxes in them pockets... ?

Trudeau speaks as a true leader who has morals and values. Why is Donald turning to Russia and turning his back on American allies ? Most Americans do not support Donald.

Wow, that idiot Trudeau expects to export Canadian products to our country free of charge, and now he's raising tariffs on American products that are exported to Canada because he's not getting a free ride anymore. A moron runs the Canadian government.
