So in other words mexico and canada are saying to the united states that they don't care how many people die of fentanyl. They just want.\n Retaliatory tarrif. Trump should raise the tariff to fifty percent immediately

As a New Zealander I am very proud of when we stood up to the US over using our waters to transport nuclear weapons. I think Canadians should feel the same pride that your standing up now. Don't let them bully you just because of there power, Canada has many true allies all over the world.

Hopefully people around the world respond by buying as little as possible from the US (especially from the billionaires and states that support Trump). Trump is going to try to divide and conquer, and if the US will attack Canada, no democracy is immune.

Good on Canada for standing up to the U.S. The US has fallen far...

Canada is just a joke to Trump, partner seems out of question

And how exactly were Canada and Mexico supposed to address those issues? Trump knows those countries can’t resolve them on demand. So what is Trump’s endgame here?

Good for Canada to docking it to us like Trump did it go them. Actually Canada should have increased their tariffs to 50%.

Trump wants to give Canada the same treatment Putin is giving to Ukraine.

America don't need the world. America have God. Trump don't succumbs. Trump should immediately banned Mexico and Canada products to the USA

What exactly does Trump want Canada to do about the border situation? I can’t find any specific information.

Canada???

Bring BYD to Canada

Mexico and Canada won't survive trade wars with the US. They'll fold in a matter of months.

The single most significant threat to world peace, stability and prosperity is the American voter.\n\nIf I was to advise the Canadian government, I would cancel all current and future contracts with American defense Corporations and sell off all American-made military hardware from Canadian stocks and re-equip with European military hardware and South Korean Tanks. Canada could make excellent use of the Saab Gripen.

Canada already have taxes on imports from North America. Good luck Canada

Canada and Mexico have rights to defend themselves!

Go Canada!

USA government is starting a fight with canada you know why??? SO THEY CAN JUSTIFY TAKING IT BY MILITARY FORCE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. ITS COMING

US tariff 25% for everything except 10% for energy. Canada only tariff about 150 B among 800 billion us import. Is this a huge retaliation.

trump shouldn't treat Canada this way, what a shame?

Canada you can sell your products to China or any other nations…don’t depend on USA!

Canada should implement a 10 to 15 percent export tariff on all of the goods going into the USA. Don’t put any tariffs coming into Canada , just let Canadians prosper

Mexico and canada dont need america,america are done

Not interested in Canada

Was due to fly to Denver on Thursday for a short vacation. Immediately changed destination to Bermuda tonight. Canada is definitely more vulnerable but i think US is under appreciating how united Canadians can be when pushed. Well literally not buy a single thing from US from goods to vacations aslong as this goes on. If Canada is going down well drag the US down with it

Canada falling straightt into the trap.\nGM is dragging its heels to move manufacturing back to the USA. \nCanada is now helping in that.

Canada should stop selling oil and electricity to the US.

Canada's economy is entirely parasitic to the US economy. The counter tariff is ridiculous.

This Canadian PM is the one causing all these. He legalize drugs in Canada and loose Canadian borders in the past 9 years. Unfortunately Canadians have to suffer because his wrong policies. I had never vote liberals and will never vote liberals.

Trump will increase it to 50% then. Canada will go down faster than ever

Maybe I shouldn't like this but I do. Firstly, Canada has the luxury of not really needing to protect itself, they get to spend 3% what the US does on their military so they can focus on other things, like letting immigrants into the Country to price out the native Canadians and jailing people for misusing pronouns. Also, I want to see the US become slightly more isolationist, I'll happily pay more for US products. A tariff is paid buy the businesses who attempt to pass that cost down to the consumer. We need tariffs high enough that making things in the US makes more sense to these businesses.

This is a mistake by Trudeau and will continue to hurt Canada and Canadians until he is removed from office.

Canada is an authoritarian state.

trump lies to his nation and others nations too. fentanyl is not even a real issue. theres like 1 percent of usa fentanyl coming from canada. i hope americans will get rid of him. this is an unjustified tariff against an ally country and its unacceptable. usa are responsible to take care of their own borders in the first place.

BTW, its not about border security with Canada, just trade imbalance and the fact that Canadians expect America to pay for their defense when we are having trouble paying the interest on the debt from the money we borrow to give you and the rest of the world. Times are changing my friend. Time to find a different sugar daddy I guess.

Canada is so screwed. USA holds all the cards in this one.

436 billion in exports to the US verses 150 billion to Canada. This is not going to hurt America but will crush Canada.

If you do the math and see who purchases what from who, this is heavily in favour of the US. Yes, both countries will hurt but it will hurt Canada a lot more - this is just going from national statistics for trade dependencies.

Should Canada join BRICS ?

No American booze for Canada ?

Russia, China and its BRICS partners appreciate Trump and the USA for their hostile attitude towards Canada, Mexico, Latin America and Europe. They will certainly take the opportunity to strengthen their business relationships with all of them. The BRICS are open for business…

Bravo , Wow , Soon Canada will do it too And the Europeans will do it too

Canada is a haven for criminals, money launderers, and an endless flow of mass immigration from special interest countries not to mention, it’s become a breeding ground for fentanyl production. It’s time to face the ugly truth.

I have 2 brothers that live in the US and they both enjoy living there. Yes, the medical is expensive and not as good as Canada's medical plan. But it's also true that you could get in fast all in the US. Hospitals pill to getting in to Canadian hospitals for appointments. For\n Myself, I love, the US has lot of nice cultures. And I Love all the theme parks that you guys have down there like Disneyland and hollywood theme park as well and even Hawaii.

I am for this deportation 1000%. See brampton, this city turn into indian all where you turn its indian in jpbs, gas station all commercial paces all in banks. Damn! All over is indians and middle east people. That is madeness. How are all these people coming into canada so easily and black people trying to come here is a hard situation. They need to send back all these indian people too many in canada

Weird that all these people are coming to a country that hates black and brown people …. Bs! Now cnn and msnbc pushed the narrative that Canada is your second option.

sean fraser, marc miller, justin trudeau should be in jail. They are criminals. Canada has been completely obliterated by these absolute IDIOTS
