Trump had to make a decision of what is more important the current economy or his country and he made the decision to make the country a priority to clean it up

ViVa Canada....I am from USA! Harm us enough so Trump will be dumped!

While it's insane and we are ALL going to feel this pain, I pray that Canada and Mexico do not back down from this orange pos!! Make Trump fall on his fat face trying to keep his daddy Putin happy! These countries are fighting back and bringing the facts - something Musk nor Trump will do! This is embarrassing for America on so many levels!

Trump is wrong in this .... anyway they planned all this when Canada honored the international criminal court against Israel... on the record SC graham spoke in video about destroying Canada economy.... but Canada has two serious nations that will automatically back Canada.. the UK and it sphere AND France and it sphere.... the only problem is logistics But Denmark has the logistics solution.... anyway USA first started growing off track with bush jr ... he who started the downfall policies of usa ..

I'm South African and I stand on the side of democracy and Ukraine and Palestine. we love maple syrup. Grew up watching canadian cartoons. We loath Trump and especially SA born Elon Musk for spreading lies about SA, for trying to take over gaza and supporting genocide/ apartheid in Israel

Is it fentynol or a steel & aluminum deal with Russian, not to mention Ukrainian resources ? Is trump selling out ?? for a deal, or looking out for the welfare of his people ? ?

Don’t be fooled. Trudeau has tanked the Canadian economy through disastrous mismanagement during his 9 year tenure. Our debt has ballooned, inflation has neutered the Canadian dollar, we are taxed into oblivion, face an unparalleled housing crisis that is linked to foreign money laundering schemes to name a few reasons. If he had not handcuffed our energy sector with pipeline bans and crushing carbon neutral BS. diversified our customer base globally and promoted home grown manufacturing instead, we could deal better absorbing Trump’s ill advised tariff war. JT is the poster child for the globalist agenda (read WEF) and has been convicted of ethics violations in multiple instances. He’s an actor (literally) and virtue signalling fool. His stats regarding the fentanyl problem are laughable considering we inspect less than 1 % of the foreign containers passing through Vancouver. Trump has inadvertently handed JT a lifeline for the Liberals political future and he’s capitalizing on it. Don’t buy the BS. Think about JT’s political record and apply that knowledge going forward.

I'm so sorry, I didn't vote Trump. He is running this country to the ground, and making enemies of friends while he tries to make friends of enemies. Trump is a traitor and a fool.

As an American, I am fully ashamed of trump and elon . This is horrible. I respect your country

I’m glad Canada is fighting back, don’t let this bully Trump hold anything over your head!

Trump is so petty

Americans will lose big time. Everything Trump touches disintegrates he is now doing this to the US economy. He's making Americans poorer all for his own ignorance and cruel bullying.

Trump needs to go!!!! WTF

Trumps doing this to appease Putin we’re screwed

TRUMP IS SETTING UP TO ANNEX CANADA. Canada's allies in Europe are now well focused on Ukraine and Russia, a US national emergency is being manufactured in that critical resources will be withheld by Canada, and Putin's bum-boy gets to live out his fantasy emulating Putin.

Prime Minister Trudeau when you start out your speech please stat half of America wants to have a trade war with us: because the other half of Americans does not want to have a trade war with Canada. I have been to Canada a hundred times in my lifetime since I live close to the Canadian border and I've always respected Canadian sovereignty also, that Canadian is our best partner and friend. Keep calling out TRAITOR TRUMP, the MAGA ACOLYTES and the so-called Republican party GOP that PLACE Putin over Canada. I don't know what Putin has over TRAITOR TRUMP or how much vested interest TRAITOR TRUMP is getting from Putin. The Canadian border is the largest undefended border in the world. To our mutual friends sorryl about this AUTOCRAT.

I never realized how many idiots live in America until trump started running for office. Trump ran his whole campaign on tariffs

Trump is a joke but nobody is laughing. Trudeau puts Trump to shame. This is why Canada is respected, while Trump is regarded as a bully and a petulant child who is intent on hurting his friend to impress another bigger bully. The people of the US are most at risk and hopefully will eventually realise that Trump is the problem and not the answer. He is driving the US economy into the ground just to appease Putin. It makes you wonder what information Putin has about Trump that he is holding over Trump's head? This fiasco is making Trump look like a weak fool who cares nothing for what pain the US people will suffer. He is rich and therefore he and his billionaire friends will not feel the pain he is happy to inflict on others.

Canadians don't bow to a known Rapist and a well-known felon. Trump is a scammer, scamming all you Americans. Defrauding his own people in front of you all.

I would like to hear tRUMPS rebuttal to Trudeau’s speech. How could he disagree with any of these facts?

While a belligerent Atlanticist imperialism is becoming a thing of the past, in the meantime; asserting that Zelensky does not want peace and thereby implying that America does want peace is classic Trump spin. What America really wants is victory over Russia and eventually China. Having failed against Russia using Ukraine as it's proxy army, a Trump administration discards Zelensky's Ukraine while cleverly deceiving most observers that Zelensky is the only one interested in continuing the war. Contemporary Atlanticist imperialism in the form of a Tump administration is deliberately and deceptively stepping back from it's Ukraine project to prepare it's next - albeit doomed to fail; project aimed at victory over Russia and eventually China.

LOL...go Trump!!! Go USA

I'm American and I stand with canada...dumbnald trump is dumb

As an American, I am appalled by Trump’s actions. I, for one, agree that his reasons for imposing tariffs is a lie. I strongly disagree with his blatant disregard for America’s allies. There is NO justification for aligning the US with Putin. If he thinks Putin has our interests in mind, he is crazy! Before it’s too late, I hope that his cabinet, the house, and senate realize that they can no longer support a president who does not support our interests as a country.

Once the American people see what Trump is doing to their country they will want him out. Canada should add another one percent per month to the tariffs until the Ameican stock market bombs.

Trudeau is a globalist, Trump is a nationalist. I stand with Trump.

Coke-a-Cola keeps their formula a SECRET! Fentanyl is being made WHERE and being sold on the Black Market by the CIA as part of the depopulation agenda. How stupid does TRUMP think we are? Now, he will lose his MAGA base.

Let’s get this clear - This is not about hurting Canada with Tariff. This is all part of Trump’s plan to create panic, confusion and frustration to the American people to make us weak so he can sell us to PUTIN. The tariff to Canada, Mexico and China; his immigration racist decisions to target Latinos; the way he and Vance attacked to president Zaleski and firing federal employes is just ALL Part of a plan to create confusion, so while we scratch our head, he allied with PUTIN.

Go Canada, the UK is with you. I'm sorry for the decent Americans caught up in this. Please fight to remove this vile regime from office. Trump, Vance and Musk are a dream for Russia and other dictatorships.

US VOTER: “Uhhh, so you do this fella Trudeau is near the end of his term as Canada’s PM? I mean, if you all are done with him and all we could certainly use a guy like him in our executive branch “ ?? ??. \n BTW, I love Canadians. Hell, “ some of my best friends are Canadian.” None In the family of course-what would people say? But you know. This guy Trump is quite the hoser. How about you open up your borders just a pinch to let us sane Americans over? We don’t eat much and we’ll even pay for any medical expenses! Really we will. We’re use to it. How’s about like starting up an H1VFK visa. Yeah, you know-the Hey, I Voted For Kamala visa. Well, just think on it. You guys were there for us during Nam. You can do the human thing again. Cheers ?

Is Trump the Antichrist?

Im an American and voted against trump. He is a danger !! Thank you for not backing down!!!!

It was a great speech, except for the part about Trump being smart!

Trump loves drama this is all on him. We the people love Canadians thank you .❤❤❤❤❤

Trump is trying to destroy our country and cause Americans harm. He couldn't care less about us or America.

Now who voted for Trump?

As a Canadian and not a Justin fan, I will say that no other person or leader could have said this any better, well done Justin, you made me proud to be a Canadian. FU Trump!

Trudeau is a thousand times the patriot — and man — Trump or Vance will ever be. American here, and I respect and admire our brothers and sisters to the North. Stand strong against authoritarian thugs! ?? ??

General Clark is baffled by Trump's strategy. How it doesn't make any sense to alienate our allies and isolate ourselves. To destroy our economy and internal workings.\n\nBut it becomes crystal clear if you accept the fact that Trump is serving Putin. He is Putin's asset. \n\nTrump's actions prove it.

Trump is a total fruit cake and bringing the US to ruin. Absolutely insane.

Hungarian here. Trump makes me wanna move to the US, again, after having lost hope to move there with the woke wave. The US will always win.

The UK stands with Canada side by side, it breaks my heart that America is no longer a friend. F*** Trump

Don’t agree with everything Trump does, just the pro life and prayers in school stuff.

Please don’t call it the US tariffs, please call it Trump‘s tariffs.

DUMB TRUMP!!!

We need a coup in USA. Dump Trump

As an American ?? I did not vote for Trump . He’s an embarrassment to our country .

I’m in Buffalo too Wolf, many of our independent shops import from Toronto. I could have never imagined a president of ours attacking our great neighbors in Canada. Trump has brought shame and hard times on us all.

trump is most diffidently not a smart man.

trudeau the best...trumps third party interference is not necessary...team trump needs to go on a diet...trumps security should be working at the borders and in the communities to remove dangerous substances and get them the meds they need....team trump are clearly terrorists....demand a re election...\nthanks for the report...
