America does not need Canada. This is what Americans' voted for.

I'm an American and I stand with Canada!

As an American, I'm embarrassed at our leadership. I stand with Canada on this.

Great speak Trudeau and I as an American support Canada not the Putin loving, disgraceful Trump.

Who cares? Seriously Of course he's upset. Canada relies heavily on the U.S., with about 75% of its exports going to America, making us a major contributor to their GDP. Instead of making other countries richer, we should focus on manufacturing and building here at home. This would keep more money circulating in the U.S., boosting economic growth and strengthening our own GDP. A stronger domestic economy means more jobs, higher wages, and greater financial stability for Americans. Regardless of who’s president, we need fair trade policies that benefit the U.S. just as much as our partners.

God Bless you Canada the American people love you trump is a thug and a Russian asset.

I’m an American, and I strongly agree Canada retaliation to trade war even though I voted for dumping trump

As an American, I am so Proud of President Trump! If my neighbors in Canada had done what was right and stopped the flow of fentanyl from coming into Canada and flowing into my country, little Justin wouldn’t be crying right now in front of a camera. Hey Justin, how many of your politicians were paid off to allow fentanyl to continue flowing? None, you say? So it was just incompetence then? I don’t think that you care because you are on your way OUT! I hope my Canadian friends do better!

As he thinks so little of Canada's long friendship and a 100 some years of protecting the Americans back, I'm beginning to think we should be doing the opposite. Reduce efforts at the border and let the foreign immigration, crime and drugs flow south into the USA. It's no longer our responsibility to protect their back.

American here that proudly stands with Canada, Mexico and the rest of the world, especially Ukraine! I did not vote for this lunatic!

Canada must — simply must — join the European Union and, together with EU countries, create a defensive alliance. Every EU country should have the technology and capability to develop nuclear weapons, as well as nuclear weapons themselves. This would be the beginning of a new world. Unfortunately, America will drown in its own debt, but most Americans have chosen this path themselves, and they regret nothing!

as an American, good job Canada.

Divine to Conquer strategy but it fails.\nThanks to the support of American people. You are welcome to visit Canada. ??

As an American i support Canada, do what you need to do for your country and people. Trump is the worst president of my lifetime and thats saying a lot.

Americans call your congress and express your disgust with Trump, Musk, Vance and their followers. I am ashamed Canada, Mexico, Ukraine that you are beinging treated like this.?

Love coming here and setting y'all straight because as you can see y'all failed when you got the chance to prove Trump was the problem. Canada? Weak country, leader acts as if he can play hardball,watch markets right now, they wouldn't be so jittery if Trump ain't backing it up. 50% of Americans right now are soft as Charmin,we can't get rid of you but God I wish we could,y'all lost on why Trump is doing all he is doing....I mean to even have to explain to y'all, nahh man. Y'all got to go.

AMERICAN HERE. PLEASE BOYCOTT AMERICAN GOODS, BOYCOTT AND STOP BUYING TESLA, IT IS OK WE KNOW YOU ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING CANADA. I STAND WITH CANADA . AMERICA IS NOW BEING GOVERN WITH A KING AND REPUBLICANS GESTAPO. WE WILL VOTE THEM OUT COME 2026 WE WILL GET THE HOUSE BACK FROM THESE DICTATORS.

Good for you Trudeau !!!! I am an American and I totally understand where you are coming from and you are exactly right! I love Canada and the Canadian people. Saying it and showing it are 2 different things. Shame on the ones who don't show it. God bless you and Canada, Trudeau ???

As an American, can I move to Canada? Such a polite and respectful people. Stay strong yall

American here, Canada is looking like a good place to live. Trump is just like Putan. I am so disgusted. I stand with Canada!

These actions against Canada are disgraceful. For the first time in my life I feel ashamed to say I’m an American. If there was ever a more fitting time to overthrow an American President the time is now. Trump needs to go.

If only American elected leaders of the same calibre that Canada does. It's a shame America has gone all Russian.

As an american i support Canada,Tump is Putins puppet. i regret voting for trump.

Forget Canada as the 51st state.\n\nAs a Northeastern American, I think most of us would prefer to become a province of Canada at this point.

I am an American standing with Canada, Ukraine and Mexico!!!

Myself a humble, quiet, soft spoken overly apologetic Canadian from Alberta will explain to the Orange clown loving Americans what just happened. (just in case the sudden politeness/professionalism was a cerebral barrier) ..My boss gave your boss the middle finger and had a talkie talk to him like you would a child or someone with severe mental disabilities... and, btw.... Canada welcomes Maine, Washington state and Oregon as our new provinces if they want or need to defect. No questions or security check involved.. all good ..we get it! come on up! Free Tim Horton's coffee on me!!

I'm a British American. I stand with Canada, Mexico and Europe (and of course Ukraine).

As an American I 100% support you Canada, Ukraine and the rest of our allies. I did not vote for our convict and cheat in DC. I also refuse to call Donald a president.

Canada ?? we are sorry for this pathetic behavior , our pathetic government ! And as an American I’m sorry !

I am American, and I love it. Give it to us good, so people will get it. Go Canada!

The American people hired Trump to do exactly what he’s doing. Tired of being the world’s bank. Trudeau DO NOT LECTURE AMERICANS. You need to address your own citizens. You’ve destroyed Canada. You should resign. You’re a commie. Just like your daddy Castro.

This is so embarrassing for us Americans. Not MAGA. Americans. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico and the rest of the sane world.

I am a naturalized American citizen and a veteran. NO to a Russian dictator. I am with Canada, our neighbors, friends and partners. I will fight for you without hesitation. I stand with Ukraine and their fight against the Russian invaders.\nI never voted for Trump and I am sick, horrified and ashamed of this current administration. Stay strong and thank you to Mr. Trudeau for this great lesson in statemanship.

Is there a “Gold” immigration card for Americans to become Canadian??? Oh Canada, we admire and respect you and your leaders. We apologize for our spineless wonders.

I am an American, I stand with Canada ??!!!!

As an American I stand with Canada as well! ❤

As an American on very shameful for our president we love you Canada we love you Ukraine

Bravo Canada from an American. Trump is a coward and a bully.

Trudeau is a scumbag and the worst leader Canada has ever seen. Americans welcome their trash talk, lets see how long this last before you realize that Americans ultimately benefit from this.

IMPEACH TRUMP NOW!!!! AMERICA ??!!!! AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO TAKE A STAND AND KICK TRUMP OUT!!! IMPEACH TRUMP!!!!! I'M AMERICAN, BUT I STAND FOR CANADA ?? AND OTHER COUNTRIES!!!!!!

In California but 1000% Team Canada. I am actively seeking out Canadian products to replace those from red states. (Canadian Mist, Crown Royal and many others are excellent replacements for Kentucky whiskeys.) I hope (and expect) that Blue State governors are working with Canada and our other allies to put the squeeze on Trump-supporting states and industries. While I hold out little hope that Trump cultists will ever not be brainwashed, putting them through direct and maximum pain is the only possible way out. Canada, elbows up! Turn out the lights, raise the price of our oil and know that true Americans are with you every step of the way.

I'm surprised how many Americans are upset with this move against Canada, from the left and right. I'm not letting Donald affect my friendships I have down in the States with friends and family.

To all Americans you are always welcome in Canada

Sorry Canada, many Americans are embarrassed and pissed off by Trump's inane traitorous, harmful agenda, stand firm against Trump, Musk, MagaMuskRats, the billionaire class, all the spineless cowardly GOP politicians in Congress and the POS quiet corporate Dems. We need more like Raskin, Crockett and AOC and fewer establishment Dems like Schumer and Jeffries. Always vote Progressive Blue and RESIST, PROTEST, BOYCOTT, REBEL, DEMONSTRATE!

i am an embarrassed American. Canada, I respect you.

Many of us American people think our president and government are nuts! Can we move to you Canada? My crazy government can have this country with a few million less people!

As an American, I gotta say… we really shouldn’t be doing Canada like this. I get it when it comes to China and other countries, but Canada?! I do not approve! ?? and ?? are basically besties regardless of the government drama and whatever substances may be involved.\n\nMeanwhile, Mexico is out here like, “Hello? Focus on me!” ??\n\nAnd in true Canadian fashion… “I’m so sorry, eh!” ??

Good for you Canada keep the pressure on Trump. As an American I hate what our goverment has done.

That’s right stand up for your country president Trudeau. Donald Trump is a big ass liar. I have been to Canada several times. And I know for a fact it’s gonna be very very very very hard to bring drugs up out of Canada to United States. Canada is a wonderful lovely country. You’re doing right not to deal with a evil man. He’s just using the Tarniff law to try to put extra money in his pocket and they trying to con the other countries out of their money.Lying to the American people make them think it’s another reason why he’s doing the Tarniff law . He’s a habitual liar, and a con man and a thief.I wouldn’t do no business with him at all he cannot be trusted. If a man will betrade his own country he will betrade anybody. Who ever in United States they pick up a gun or try to hurt the Canadians any kind of way it’s a damn fool. In the truck started a war with Canada with him in office I would rather fight for Canada then fight for him

I DID NOT VOTE FOR TRUMP, I STAND WITH CANADA , UKRAINE MEXICO. GREENLAND , EU. AMERICAN. HERE.
