Canada is a richer country than america much nicer happier place

Who convinced Trump of this? I like him but this trade war against Canada isn’t the way to go, really. I feel Canadians were mistakenly targeted. US needs allies not foes. Proud of Trudeau for the first time. I don’t live in the US but in Canada at the moment, not Canadian either, but I’m very objective in my perception about these occurrences. I hope America makes peace with Canada so strengthen both sides, hmmm.

As an America who supports US Global Relationships, we're so sorry and we support Canada's decision 100%

Thank you President Trudeau, for telling the truth about the Con-man, clownish, cruel, ignorant, criminal American President.\n\nTrump and his thugs are ruining and drowning America and risk take other countries down with them. Your righteous indignation is completely justified, noble, bold, and just.\n\nI can no longer live here; it feels like a strange, cruel country. It is being run by a madman and his minions. All cowards. All morally depraved, especially J.D. Vance. What complete hypocrisy. It is nauseating to the core.\n\nViva Canada!❤

Good and not servility speech! I hope you can do more about Fentanyl and the Chinese organized criminal activity in your Casino and Fentanyl chemical sent by CCP! We love Canadian but not Fentanyl, illegal immigrants, and CCP infiltration! Goo bless America and Canada!

I support Canada in their fight continue to stand up to this bully that what’s to control everything and everyone he is all\nAbout money the republicans party are all scared of him so they are all going along with him how could America stand there and let a dictator destroy the country we are living in the last days all we can do his pray sad??

I support Canada ??! Trump is destroying everything like he did with his casinos. How will any of this make America Great? It doesn’t. And Republicans are equally responsible for ALL that is happening. Do they honestly think we Americans will accept what is happening? Think again. We have the ballot box and will use it.

Im American and i don’t care about other countries. Im for America and only America. Ukraine has been taking and taking out money. Weapons and we get nothing. Yet the EU is going to get their money back, but not us. And Canada got that tariff because of the fentanyl that’s coming across you and the Chinese border. So I don’t care if Canada is mad

This is not about tariffs. It is about Trump unravelling all of America's relationships with its allies, to make the country weaker, in the service of Putin. Canada is just the first. But Europe will be next. Then America stands alone, too weak to be a world leader.

If Dump and his cronies and sycophants think Canada will bow down they are sorely mistaken. We would rather eat dirt than join the 4th Reich. And we will never forget this betrayal by the country that was once our closest ally and trading partner. We were fighting the Nazis two long years before America joined the war. We are a tough and resilient nation. Elbows up!

America, is with you, Canada!

I'm hoping to hear that Canada shuts off all the electricity they route to America. Couldn't be more deserved.

Trump is a criminal and a liar. He is dangerous to Canada, America and the world.

Take into account the fact that this guy arrested, confined, fined and confiscated property of his own fellow Canadians citizens and starved people out during the pandemic. Canada has not prospered but will thrive if they make the deal with America. Globalists are kicking and screaming all the way down.

This is the sad moment for America and Canada. Unbelievable

What has Canada and European countries done to actually try and end the death and destruction from this war? Europe buys energy from Russia, and Canada is only giving 650 million dollars in weapons over three years, while America has supplied hundreds of billions of dollars in aid and military equipment. Zelensky goes around the world dressed in a military outfit with no desire to stop the slaughter of humans on both sides. There have been thousands of wars where, eventually, one side has to accept the reality that they can not win, Zelensky is unwilling to see this. President Trump was elected because we want his AMERICA FIRST AGENDA, and with us saddled with 36 TRILLION dollars of debt, this war needs to stop.

Canada needs America more than America needs Canada.

Canada is that shining monument up on the Hill .. America is in the ditch.

Trudeau, Americans LOVE YOU AND CANADA. Please accept my apology on behalf of America. Donald Trump is shameless and is an absolute moron. Godspeed to you and all phenomenal Canadians. Sending love! ??????

We want Trump to stop. He is turning America into a Dictator. Tired of his gangster ways. We are so so sorry Canada.

What would be interesting to know is how trade between Canada and Europe explodes, Europe would like all the oil and gas and rare earthminerals Canada has, so would China, if for nothing other than to prevent Americas access to it. I think trump and musk think russia will supply rare earth minerals on the cheap, but Russia is about to collapse again and various regions break away as they did last time, but this time is much worse than back then, Russia really could cease to exist and America will not benefit at all, Europe China India Mongolia will benefit. Russians hate america more than Americans hates Russia, America has been prosperous, while 40% of Russians don't have running water or electricity, yes the big cities and towns in the west are better off but most of Russia does not even have paved roads.\n\nTrump is backing his banker, and everyone knows it, pootin is using trump, very clearly shown when he set up President Zelensky in that ambush.\n\nEurope China and other countries will be in line to sign trade deals. I think it was clever of Trudeau to say what he did. And to set a few months before the massive cuts in trade with America as what the rapist president is doing, what republicans are doing will be biting very hard by then, and Canada cutting trade at that time will be possibly the straw that breaks trump.

As an American I did not vote for him or what he is doing to us all. God bless our wonderful neighbor Canada and God help us here in America.

Another gang is going to attack the Capitol, then I want to see if Trump forgives them like he did with the other criminals who beat and killed police officers, and this administration is a joke, I've never seen an aide to the president of America with a chainsaw in his hand. Salute Canada and the Americans who are with democracy

Canada and Mexico are not responsible for the people in the US who chose to use drugs. In fact, it's the United States job to keep illegal drugs and immigrants out of the US and they are doing a poor job of it and need someone else to blame. Mexico could retaliate in a way that could flood the US with illegal drugs and immigrants and refuse to repatriate its citizens back into Mexico. The rest of Central and South America could do the same in support of Mexico. They need to get Trump out of office before he ruins America.\nI remember the press conference with the USA (Trump), Canada and Mexico when signing the new trade agreement during Trump last time in office. Trump proudly stated that this is the greatest agreement in the history of the United States. Last week he wanted to know who in the US agreed to the terrible trade agreement. He is losing his mind and cognitive function is deteriorating at a rapid rate. Re-negotiating contracts after the work is complete is how Trump ran his businesses. He has bankrupted many small businesses by not paying them knowing that they do not have the money to go to court. He is only rich because of daddy's money otherwise he would have never survived his many bankruptcies. Thats why no one will loan him money. I can't wait until he screws over the government of Saudi Arabia with one of his shady business deals. Anyone remember what happened to Khashoggi for just authoring a bad article on Saudi's Leaders. What do you think will happen to Trump for monetarily screwing them over?

Kentucky here. Good riddance Canada. Exactly what we voted for. You need us more than we need you. You take of advantage of America and expect us to just sit and take it. Guess what we don’t play that game no more. So kiss our American butts and get over it. Trump 4-Ever. MAGA till we die.

Maybe Canada could annex us: The Canadian States of America. No Republicans

I hope all countries do like Canada, we deserve this because America needs to no. We must stop being greedy

As An American citizen I stand for righteous leadership and I stand with Canada, European allies and Mexico. Do what you have to do to protect your country your economy and your citizens. TRUMPSKI and his lap dog JD Vancekoff are ruining the United States of America!! They're not leaders, they're Russian assets, strongmen wannabe's and a scourge in the historical record of our nation. And all of the misled, under educated and misinformed folks who follow this man and his cult of personality have been lead astray by the propagandist on FOX News and right wing social channels and will pay for this just like the rest of us. Trump and his cronies are ONLY about enriching THEMSELVES and their friends and families. Not the working man and woman. Just the autocrats and oligarchs.

Good luck America with launching trade war against Canada, EU, China, MX etc..American people have NO CLUE what gonna hit them, whats coming with this relentness STUPIDITY by Trump admin..NO FIN CLUE

i was raised in Canada, SO WAKE UP AMERICA, this can destroy the UNITED STATES

Mr Trump is a criminal, who is destroying the United States of American. I love Canada and Canadian people . Washington state loves Canada. We are trying to stop Mr Trump and Mr Musk. This is not America, ????✌?

Who care about woke shitbag trudeau. Canada will be 51 states of America

From Germany to Canadians: Canada has the highest respect from what's left of the West. Stay strong. Stay vigilant. Don't lose who you are and keep standing up for what is right. It's easy to say, but there are more important things in life than money and power. America has lost its soul. Let's keep ours and move forward as true friends and allies.

I'm American...and I wish canada would put a 500% tariff on America..yes we would suffer but somebody needs to stand up to the bullies...lol the American govt doesn't care about fentanyl ..

No , America proper isn't against Canada , the Orange Narcissist in Chief and his sociopathic oligarchs are . Trump's gotta *GO* , period !

F that America standing on business F Canada ??

This will hurt america way more than it will hurt Canada! Canadians are used to tightening their belts and pulling together and remember that when our trade deals are ratified with other countries and those relationships are built and new trade routes are forged bypassing the u.s. then the u.s. will be a stand alone country wait until Canadas oil and gas and electricity is turned , and let's talk about Canadas potash and just about everything else will be gone let's not forget about tourism because instead of making north America stronger Canada will be stronger and once we start getting fair market value for Canadian energy and our national debt is gone then it'll be bye bye Americans. You won't be the stronger nation on earth very much longer. Is America joining Russia as a new communist agreement.

As someone who is half Canadian this is stupid Canada is pretty much our brother and america needs to treat them better

Screw Canada 's punk Justin. Screw the coke head grifter Zelensky and Europe. Canada has been screwing America for decades in trade. Canada is now a communist shit hole.

We stand with you Canada, china and Mexico. Don’t allow a convicted criminal felon who escaped prison term to bully your nation. I blame morons and illiterate racial haters who voted for this dementia old man who thinks he is God. America, you can correct your stupid mistake in 2027 by voting out Republicans in congress. With that, this insanity is stop instantly. His brain will start to function.

Still no words on Canadas high exports into America. This is bull! Thanks' Trump first president to stand next to the people and not on top of them!

My father was 24 year Navy. I'm glad he passed because this would kill him. He didn't like Trump in the 80s. America doesn't want this!!!We stand with Ukraine,Canada and Mexico.

Canada uses technology and forward thinking to protect their border. The US is decades behind border control and instead hang on building a border wall. A wall. A wall that has proven time and again to be ineffective and costly to build and maintain. Trump is a dinosaur and an autocrat that has brought America to its knees. Americans will not stand for it. This is temporary.

Mexican America's with Canada ??

This is crazy! I’m so upset with Trump and his people for doing this to us in America and I completely understand that Canada has to do what it has to do since Trump is being a big bully.

2:07 no america chose to do it to Canada not Americans

Trudeau sold out the Canadien people long ago with his personal greed, woke crap and using the environment as an excuse to tax the hell out of us. Now he has someone to blame (Trump). We need Pierre, a strong leader that will work with President Trump for a Strong North America. Canada + USA = Prosperity for all

im sure much more Fentanyl flows INTO Canada FROM America. This is bonkers

Canada had no problem with charging high tariffs in America. But now the tables are turned and they are whining. What comes around goes around Canada.

Wait a second, just a few weeks ago CNN was saying that Canada had outfoxed the US/Trump and they were not doing anything more than what they had decided to do well before Trump's election when it comes to stopping illegal immigration and the transport of fentanyl into the US? Now they are trying to convince us that Canada is very understanding and accommodating of US needs and is doing a lot!!!! Fake News Network! True Americans should stand with United States of America and not Canada. LOL
