I’m proud of Canada! American here ?

American citizen here with French Canadian Heritage and I stand with Canada ??

I am American but 100% I am with you Canada!!

Looks like Americans are idiots! Wait, I'm an American.....but I didn't vote for him! We are not all blind and stupid. We love you Canada and Ukraine ❤ I'm ashamed of what tRUMP is doing. ?

American here. French Canadian ancestry. I’m so proud of Canada. I didn’t vote for Trump and can’t imagine why anyone did.

I stand with Canada and Ukraine! I am American and I am embarrassed and afraid!

American here supporting Canada and Mexico. I'm embarrassed by what that idiot has done and will continue to do sadly. Please know that not all Americans support this. In fact MOST of us don't, and we are standing with you.

Trump went against the trade deal that he made with Canada and Mexico when he renegotiated the existing deal during his first term. Trump called his deal with them beautiful and perfect. Trump does not keep the deals he makes to other countries or to the Americans who voted for him. \n\nTrump's final push in his campaign was to cut costs for Americans at the checkout, chuckling at the strange sound of the word 'groceries' to him. He has never worried about or dealt with buying groceries. The moment he got back into office, he said that lower prices wasn't happening and that the American people would suffer. \n\nThen he and Republicans began cuts in jobs and government services to Americans as well as others in the world, so that no one can trust Trump --- and in the case of others in the world, it reflects so bad on the U.S. and against any trust in the U.S. anymore. No president has ever done so much damage at home and abroad so quickly. \n\nTrump is the Deceiver and the Destroyer. Trump doesn't care if his voters figure it out. They are no longer needed.

I am an American and in firm support of the Canadian people, but definitely not Trudeau! Please recall not only his assault against the truckers a few years ago, but his desired seizure of GoFundMe monies that INDIVIDUALS sent to the truckers! Perssure later required him to take his hands off. And I've seen videos of how badly he treats Christians. I do not support Russia or China, but I do consider Trudeau to be of the same ilk. I don't worship Trump and will be actively communicating with those who represent me in the US govrrnment to let them know my desires. I am hopeful that in Canada someone better than Trudeau very soon takes his place.

God Bless PM Trudeau. This American agrees with you. God Bless our allies in Canada. ❤

Canada -- Congratulations to you for not supporting Putin's puppy. Trump's damned fool supporters deserve the results of their meanness and boundless stupidity. Too bad farmers, Cubans, anti-immigrant racists, holy rollers, misogynists, and fools. You go, Trudeau. Trump cannot be trusted in any way. Born damaged. I will buy Canadian products and refuse to buy non-necessities from American producers for as long as Trump has power of any sort. Trump is working for Russia and the Republicans are helping him. I don't forget those who attack my family. TRUMP WORKS FOR RUSSIA.

The problem here isn't temporary. Tariffs may or may not be. But when Canada, Mexico, and other countries build alternate trade infrastructure and strike deals that exclude America, this becomes near irreversible and will hurt America's economy well after Trumps term. And that's just trade and economy.\n\nThen there are many relationships worldwide which are already affected, and world leaders are poised to move on without America - leaving it isolated. The US is the most powerful country in the world and can survive alone, but even so, no country flourishes without international partnerships that both parties can rely on. Like Putin, nobody can rely on Trumps word.\n\nHe is destroying everything. And the American public are largely sitting back and watching it. \n\nWake up before it's too late.

Trump is attempting to offset his tax cuts by implementing a tax that isn't called a tax. All of the money from the tariffs goes to the government. Trump has mentioned when tariffs were common as supporting what he is doing, but he doesn't add that at that time, there wasn't an income tax, so tariffs were how the government supported itself. Trump, knowing that tariffs are income for the government, is lying to his base so they will accept the increased prices as a necessary evil to battle the bad countries of Mexico and Canada. It will look like his tax breaks aren't hurting as much as they are and price increases will be the fault of the other countries.\n\nTrump is a conniving grifter with no knowledge of how to run a country's economy or international trade. He is gaslighting the American public to cover his own shortcomings.\n\nAlso, if fentanyl is entering the US, why is it the fault of the other countries? It is the job of the US to stop anything on its side of the border. Canada and Mexico do what they can to catch the drugs while inside their respective countries. The tons of cocaine and guns that enter Canada and Mexico from the US are caught by their border services; they don't blame the US for the products getting past their own border agents, and the US takes no responsibility for it making it across the border. Why is it other countries' fault for drugs getting past the US's border agents, but not the fault of the US that guns and drugs are going in the other direction? That is why countries work together, not fight over whose fault it is and try to punish each other.

American. I stand behind Canada. I didn’t vote for this, but I will stand proud as it all crumbles so those that did can feel the consequences of their actions.

Putin is an evil leader and so is Kim Jong Un. Building alliances with those evil leaders puts us at risk with God. God is One of order and love. Those leaders stand for hate, murder, lies, and dictatorship. I am American and I am concerned for the welfare of our country. I stand with Ukraine and Canada. Evil will never win…ever. Have no fear with God. Believe that He will protect us.

As an American, I stand with Canada, Mexico & Ukraine not the way our government has chosen to act on the world stage!?

All you Americans in this post are committing treason when Trump are doing this for America. If a country invades Canada who do y’all think they’re going to call on. The United States.

As an American I say screw Canada

only if dumb trump can speak intelligently like this true leader from Canada. trump speak at grade school level. I am American and very embarrassed for our government.

I’m an American and I support Canada, Ukraine and NATO. Trump is a Russian asset.

U.S. Army Vet here. I stand with Canada and the American people.

Justin Trudeau is obviously a knowledgeable and communicative leader for Canada. Then we have Trump. ?. I am ashamed to be an American right now.

Reassuring to see so many country leaders talk so professionally in the wake of the Clown leader of the Circus in the US, have so much respect for Trudeau and the people of Canada, I feel so sorry for the American people your leader is an embarrassment to you and the world, regards from Down Under??

As an American in Buffalo, I stand with our dear neighbors and friends in Canada!

THIS AMERICAN STANDS WITH CANADA!!!! OUR “LEADER” IS A DICTATOR AND HIS MAGAS ARE IDIOTS!

He spoke well. Assertive and respectful. Protective of Canada without attacking the American people. Good balance.

I'm a Scottish person who has just had maple syrup and bacon on my pancakes. Won't be buying any American pancake toppings that's for sure. Go Canada. Really hoping when Scotland qualify for the Mexico/USA/Canada world cup in 2026 that we don't end up in the USA. Don't trust them anymore!

My friends would not have it where I paid them $5000 and they paid me $1000\n\nI don't even want to hear your lies Trudeau. You are calling Americans stupid right to their face. \n \nBecause only somebody really stupid would agree that America paying Canada three times more than Canada pays America is honest or the way it should be.

tRump and Elon are holding the country hostage and taking all it's wealth and the MAGAT's are cheering, soon they will pay more for groceries, gas, homes and just about everything. the stock market are plummeting and they are cheering and loosing their jobs because of DOGe, Canada need to fight back (and we will) even harder and make the red states pay against their products and services and farmers, it's not against the american people but the illegal tariffs, stay strong ??

I am ashamed to be an American now. I was from 2016-2020 as well. The insanity of XX45 is 100x worse now, along with the unhinged Elon musk. We are in dire straits. Real Americans LOVE YOU Canada! ???

I'm betting that Canada will do what they can to help their people in their businesses while the Trump administration will let the American people and businesses suffer. Maga is all about the cruelty.

Stupid comments here, see a clown like Trudeau and praising him because of his tan and tone, not knowing the slightest thing. He is not an actor; he is the PM of Canada. Hating Trump doesn't make this clown any better. Ask Canadians whether they think he is the next coming of Christ. Clown who has even stepped down because of his failures. Americans stop being ignorant.

American here, Great Job Canada! We despise Trump and all he stands for. So do what you gotta do, we understand.

Je suis American, moi je t’adore Canada.❤

American here (as embarrassing as it is to admit), I stand with Canada 100%!!! I did not vote for this disgrace of a human! Blessings and Love to all Canadians. ???

Why this nato leader quack just try and blame Russia and china for American tariffs on Canada this news channel is talking about tariffs and for some reason the topic of fearmongering Russia and china \nMr nato leader quack everyone who is well informed on what Putin and Russia want you clearly don’t so educate yourself

As an American I'm 60 yrs old. And I totally agree With Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau 1000%. I never wanted Trump. And let's make this clear by all means. To those that voted for his dumb ass I hope u you got what you wanted. HE DOES NOT GIVE A CRAP BOUT AMERICA ONLY PUTIN WHO WITH TRUMP BEING THE ULTIMATE ASS KISSER TO HIM TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY AND THE PEOPLE WITHIN IT. GOD HELP US ALL. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY. TRUMP IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF.

Canada took American products off their shelves a long time ago

I am American and I stand with Donald Trump. Canada needs to shut their borders down with the fentanyl. It's killing all our people they buy. What they want and they charge us a fortune. They don't do nothing for America. Canada, does everyone should do for America? As Americans stand up for the USA thank you.

As American ?? I stand with Canada and Ukraine

Trump has disappointed many many Americans with this decision and his opposition to Ukraine—he will regret this, Canada our closest friends and supporting 3 years of Putin sickening terrorist attacks of Ukrainian civilians! I voted for Trump, but he is only ONE branch of our government, a Democracy, not Authoritarian! Our legislators should override Trumps decision, it takes 2/3 approval by our House and Senate and it does not matter what Trump does, he cannot Veto! Trump has some twisted affinity for Putin and Dictators. When Trump does not get his way, he tantrums and acts out…a very cardinal trait of Trumps personality. There is no logic—he goes on and on about all the lives and dying, then he supports Putin who has 1200 to 1500 Russian youth getting killed daily. \nSLAVA UKRAINI ????

As an American, I've never been more proud of Canada.

Canadian here . Not interested in buying anything american nor visiting states ever again .Been to usa multiple times and will not go back , at least until there is some leadership that I can respect. I have love for Americans, but never to the detriment of Canada.

From one American, good luck Canada.

As American, I stand with Canada.

As an American, I stand with Canada.

I am an American but I am with you Canada. Do what you have to do.❤

only if dumb trump can speak intelligently like this true leader from Canada. trump speak at grade school level. I am American and very embarrassed for our government.

This is how a President is SUPPOSED to act. PRESIDENTIAL. I am embarrassed to be an American during these times and think our entire administration is despicable. We will be visiting Canada in our RV on our way to Alaska, and I hope you don't hate us just because we're American!

Much love to you Mr. Trudeau and to the people of Canada who I have always found to be most kind and generous. This American is with you all the way!!
