Eveything that Trump is doing has Putin written all over it. Everything that Russia could benefit from is being executed by the President of The USA. We really are witnessing the beginning of a dark chapter in American and world history. Trump is destroying (deliberately) crucial historical alliances that have benefitted the US itself. It really is mind-blowing stuff.

I just can believe what Trump's government is doing, he's not even hiding it anymore, isolating the US and giving your country to the hands of Russia and going forward of China. Americans must do something about this, remember that a Country is governed by the people and not by few thugs! \nFrom Italy all of this is really hard to watch.

In Canada you do not have freedom of speech, they will send you to re-education! Ask Jordan Peterson! In Canada you don’t have 2nd amendment either, as Canada has no such law for self defense with a firearm, in Canada the Government can seize your bank accounts and bankrupt you if you protest! Ask the truckers! No, we do not stand with a Dictator who use to be a high-school drama teacher! Canada is free to fund Ukraine all it wants! But our support has been 20x more plus intelligence. We will do what’s best for our people! Clinton took Ukraines Nuclear Weapons in 1994 and promised Russia would not take aggression against them. We need to stay out of Europes mess, they dragged us into 2 world wars and it’s not our job to constantly deal with their mess!

He actually said that we're aligning with Russia! What a LIE! Meditating a war is not aligning! Tell them to pay their part! Stop reporting lies!

The signs are now very clear. Destruction of the alliances. Destabilization of Europe. Cybersecurity against Russia stopped. - No president does that. An KGB / SWR agent does that.

Trump: we are going to punish our allies and friend who also paid in blood for us after 911\n\nAlso trump: \nPutin suffered with me through the “Russia Russia Russia” hoax\n\nWhat a lame lame orange jerk

Great speech but Trump rightfully knows that everyone besides China and Russia can only bring knifes to a gun fight. Usa and russia will completely rip off Ukraine. Europe cant defend itself against Russia. Scary hours for the whole world

Justin, we don't want this either. It's this MF and his cohorts. They are mad and desperately trying to turn the US into a Russian state. Make it, make sense. Why don't they just move to Russia?

Back stabbing Canada and holding hands with Russia ?? I’m not sure how maga can still support their clown president.

Securing our boarders north as well as south . China military coming into Canada as well as drugs crossing our boarder from the north ? US promised Russia that NATO would not enter Ukraine . There is more to this story than the spin that Trudeau and CNN is presenting . Stop funding this war . Stop the killing . Stop laundering our tax dollars .

US citizens, please do not divert your attention from where your primary attention should be and that is the Trump Administrations appeasement policies towards Russia. A 180 degree turn from opposing Russia to supporting Russia’s invasion of a sovereign diplomatically elected country. Canadians please do not direct your anger towards Americans who DO NOT support draft dodging Trump. US citizens will continue to support you and rid our country of this scourge!

Maybe Trump is a russian spy as a Trump double.. he supports Russia and goes against all historic friends.. or he is a fkn genius .

The tariffs make sense from the position of trump being an ally with putin. trump is punishing countries that have supported Ukraine, thinking that if he weakens these countries with tarrifs, these same countries will turn inward and discontinue their support of Ukraine. I wonder how much putin has offered to pay trump if trump can strong arm Ukraine into ending the war, leaving russia with land stolen from Ukraine. Something stinks of corruption here.\nThank you for speaking from a place of power and truth Prime Minister Trudeau.

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.

What’s Trudeau’s plan for peace with Russia?

DO business With Eu And China ?? 100 times better to do business with China then Usa=Russia....

???????? here,If there’s one thing I learned in university as a political science graduate, and I did take a US government course was part of my degree. I thought that there were so many checks and balances on the president of the United States, but seeing his actions, I am very confused at how he is not being questioned for his mental stability and his actual ability to lead your country I mean to what degree is the definition of treason not applied I don’t understand how the president of the United States can now align himself with Russia and destroy allegiances with friends and allies This is not seen as treason?\nTo my American readers… just remember the United States knows no better friend than Canada….. so does any of this make sense? How is it that we are the enemy now and your president wants to support Russia is he a Russian operative? How are you not removing this guy from power where are all these checks and balances that you always bragged about through my entire life ?

America will implode. Even Russia has said they are watching and laughing waiting for you all to get weak and for the rest of the world to turn their backs then I guarantee you China, Russia and those terroristy countries will join forces against them. It's sad seeing Aneica go from the most powerful country to the arm pit of the world.

I never thought I’d live long enough to watch the fall of our American democracy. And I don’t say this lightly. When we begin these ill thought out and economically foolish trade wars; when we attempt to hurt our allies and neighbors and distance our self from our Democratic partners in favor of communist Russia, how can you say that our democracy is not in jeopardy. And we now have billionaires who are not responsible to the electorate, dictating policy in order to grow their enormous wealth even more and do so unchallenged with the protection of the government, does that not look like a country that doesn’t have long . And to these Republicans, who are spineless and care more about their job, their position and their pocketbook rather than their duty to their country and the constitution, how dare you. Disgrace.

This Canadian is PROUD of our DEMOCRATIC government in their strong response to the acts of the USA under convicted felon and adjudicated r@pist trump aka Komrad Krasnov. When you piss off Canada, you KNOW you're on the wrong side of history. FAFO. FDJT FUSA... our geographic neighbour is now our enemy and the enemy of every single democratic nation across the globe. Americans, you can either do something to change your fascist gov't, or enjoy your goose step closer and closer to Russia.

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.

US. Is. Allied. With. Russia. Now.

Sadly Russia is n longer an opponent for America. Russia is our master.

The line has been crossed. America is now an enemy and axis power. Make no mistake about it. This is not posturing on the Republican side. It's deliberate, planned, and thought out. Trump IS on Russia's side.

CNN got one thing wrong. They refer to Russia as an adversary. It's clear that we've changed sides.

US RELATION WITH EUROPE- BAD\nUS RELATION WITH UKRAINE- BAD\nUS RELATION WITH GREENLAND- BAD\nUS RELATION WITH CANADA- BAD\nBUT US RELATION WITH RUSSIA- EXCELLENT!!????\nTRUMP SUPPORTERS MUST REALISE THAT TRUMP IS A CRAZY MAN!

Trump is Russia asset. This is what putin want his orange puppet to do. To destroy the us and its allies. Looks like this traitor doing a damn good job as we speak

Good job all of you Countries need to stand up for yourselves because we Americans don’t agree with this either and we stand behind you all because being a bully is never a good things and Trump and Vance is putting all Americans at risk with the moves they are playing trying to run the World.Well you know what in all reality Trump and Vance does not care about the American people only the Billionaires he is beside including Elon.So Zelensky get with Canada and other European countries and hold your own against Russia.Putin is evil and Trump is his friend period and will back Russia before he does NATO

The sooner we Americans accept that Donald Trump is essentially batshit crazy and proceed to impeach the Orange Menace, the better off everyone in the world will be. Except of course, Russia. The more pressure great democracies as Canada exert upon Trump internationally, the more the U.S. economy (and Americans ourselves) will suffer. The more we Americans suffer, the more pressure will be exerted upon Trump domestically, and the more the U.S. Congress will bilaterally be pressured to impeach Trump. A lot of Canadians might not agree with me, but the Prime Minister is among the greatest democratic leaders of our time in contrast with the USA's new dictator-in-waiting. May God bless Canada and may God deliver the United States.

US is now part of the axis of evil with Russia. \nPutin, Musk and Trump are evil, traitors to the US, traitors to all democracies.

Russians are in the OVAL OFFICE!!! Donald Trump is a traitor and a KBG Plant!! He was recruited by his first wife a KBG agent who was brought to the US in 1978. as part of a plot to break in to the NYC real estate market!!! The idea was to find a way to launder the increasing profits from Moscows drug and gambling operations!!! He has worked with the Russians for many years and is a personal friend of Putins!!! Russia has control of the US GOVERNMENT AND THEY ARE BUSY DESTROYING THE US ECONOMY AND DEMOCRACY!!! You might as well put Putin in charge!!! Hopefully they will arrest and IMPEACH Trump and his government, before it's too late to do anything!!!

Trump sold American out to Russia.

USA is now West Russia . Canada, dear people, we are beyond help. Just leave us in the dust and source elsewhere. We are now poison agent orange. We know his plan to wreck the true north and raid and steal your land. Be strong.

I just realized that the USA has become like Russia in yet another way: We cannot trust our president's words.\nAlso: That woman behind Trudeau looks genuinely proud.

American Here. Let’s Go, Canada!!! I urge you to do everything you can to bring our president to his knees. Double down on anything that will hurt #47. The sooner he bends his knees, the sooner we get him out of office. He’s a liar and facts mean nothing to him. He sold us all out to Russia. Give him the worst you can come up with. We are with you. ??????????????

Look at this leader tell Canadians their government has their backs. \nLook at our government not caring about the jobs they slash leading to American families to struggle needlessly.\nWhat did we do?\nWe align with Russia and North Korea. What the hell?

Stand up Canada! It's about time! We been selling our future and sovereignty to the US since WW2 thinking they are our friend forever. WRONG! Respect only comes from threat and that is why Trump is respecting Russia and China more than us. Stop buying their shit and let's find some new business partner, be it europe or china, let's be competitive again and let them see how it feels like with a non secure backyard

Canada is awesome except for the fact that Canada (and the liberals in the US) are against ending the fighting between Ukraine and Russia. They would rather 'stand with Ukraine' until all the Ukrainians are deceased!

Australia stands with Canada, Europe and Ukraine. America will become another isolated country run by a despot that serves Russia, no better than North Korea, and the American people will suffer the same poverty North Korea and Russia suffer because only the rich elites benefit under fascist dictatorships.

USA is now allied with Russia

You have been taking advantage of the USA. noe that Americans want trade parity, you complain. you are abusive. Speaking of Russia to undercut America, you forget your suppottbto theSikhs terorits. toy have been ponging on theccmricans, nd now that aAmerican President, best in many years, has called off your taking advantage, you cry. GROW UP. YOU GOT THERE YOUR FTHER WAS PM. BUY CONT NOT GET MOB IN GHA MARKETS. THATY ISA HOW SMALL YOU ZR.

All of you below are smoking something serious… all Trudeau has to do is stop the flow of fentanyl and stop placating dei and failed security policies. \n\nZelenskyy is nothing but a man child running around with his handout…who doesn’t have the man power to fight Russia and will expect American soldiers to defend him. NATO started this war and they should finish it. \n\nStop being a bunch of parrots and do your own research.

Donald trumpsky and comrade Vancsky are detirmed to destroy allies in favour of cosying up to Putin because Russia has something on trump that will come out and shock the world

All these foreign leaders and civilians that have a problem with Trump on the russia ukraine situation have had years to do something. All talk no action. Suit up and go fight Russia or STFU. At least Trump is attempting to DO something

I am from Indiana and am horrified by Trump real Americans stand with our TRUE allies Canada and Ukraine and the rest of Europe NOt Russia. Tnot our President

Trump is for Russia

Trump said he wants to break the relationship between China and Russia how better to do it by getting in bed with Putin!\nTrump could be playing Putin.

And on Fox “News” they keep going as if it’s business as usual. All the way down to TDS and the Russia Hoax. From Europe it very much looks like a hostile takeover, from the dismantling of the judicial system, the weakening of intelligence services, the souring of relationships with pretty much all the historical important allies, be it nations and organisations to the dismantling of civil services that can create great internal uproar and conflicts.

At what point does the International Olympic Committee and other international sports bodies step in and ban the USA from the upcoming Olympics? \nTrump has made his position clear that he feels Russia is not at fault for anything that has happened in Ukraine. The debacle that went on in the Oval office on February 28th was not only disgusting, but it proved to me that the president is not willing to be a peaceful friend to anyone on a personal or global level. Today's tariffs only cements that proof. The framework is in place to make a strong case to ban USA from the Olympics and current future international sports events. I realize this would impact many good people, but a country hell bent on hating those fighting so hard for their freedom has no place on any playing field right now.

What the heck does Putin have on Donnie? Was it pedophilia on Epstein's Island? was it sex with boys and girls? Was it the mythical pee tapes? Whatever it is it has to be big enough to get Donnie to break with all the US's traditional allies which has to be making Putin rub his hands with glee. How far does this adjudged rapist, and 34 count felon that the US decided it wanted to make it's President, have to go before someone steps in and say that Trump represents a clear and \npresent danger to the economic and military security of the world? His administration forced New York's director of the FBI to resign because that man did not want to give up the names of personnel who investigated the Jan 6 insurrectionists. He put a known Russian apologist, Tulsi Gabbard, in charge. He has frozen aid to a country actively fighting for it's very survival against an aggressive and expansionist Russia. He applied tariffs against Canada and threatens the same against Europe., he has banned the freedom to protest in colleges though he freed people imprisoned for rising in actual insurrection against the Government. Dictatorship comes in steps isolation from the world and suppression of freedoms are but two. The free world weeps for what the US is becoming under this current administration.
