The UK stands with you Canada. The US under Trump is no friend.

Luv Canada. Luv Our Dear PM - Right Honorable Justin Trudeau ❤️

I stand with Canada ??

There is a lot of talk on Fentanyl headed south, but no mention by Canada of how much of the drug heads north. I can't be zero. There has to be transit of the drug from the USA into Canada.\n\nBut what I truly don't understand, is that what heads south is not crossing through the Canadian border. All south bound traffic needs to go through US Border patrol agents. So by that measure, how is Canada not doing its job? I've crossed into Canada many times and have been asked to pull over for a search of my vehicle more times than I've been searched on my return to the USA, which was once, my very first crossing in 2002. \n\nMy only guess is the problem isn't fentanyl, that's just a distraction and by design a way to get people believing in something that isn't true and to help further the rift.

Canada imposes high tariffs on certain U.S. imports, particularly in the dairy sector. Under the supply management system, Canada tightly controls dairy production and imposes tariffs of up to 270% on some U.S. dairy products to protect its domestic farmers. This has been a long-standing trade issue between the two countries.

OH YES, We don't want it either but Trumpy-Boy and all the cronies that follow him need to realize this is not a game! I am an American! Keep up the good fight Canada!!!

Less than one percent of fentanyl that enters the United States comes from Canada. Trump has absolutely no idea what’s he’s talking about he’s constantly spouts lies to trick Americans to further his own agenda, in fact he’s betraying America’s allies and getting closer with our enemies. He’s a terrible person and should be ousted from office ASAP

From the Netherlands: The world can witness the downfall of a country run by Banana Republicans. Keep strong Canada. The EU will follow.

King Trump has his own agenda!!! He wants too make everyone in Canada so miserable that will want too be annexed!! Fuck Trump!!!

Dustbin Turdeau made false allegations on India a few months ago, to polish its domestic politics. It was trying to appease terrorist head lords to gather their support. It allows terrorists in its country and then blames India for a gang war which occurs in its own country. It has destroyed India-Canada relations for its own political goals. Shame on you Dustbin Trudeau.

Go Canada go, you shine bright and we love Canada ❤

He sounds very manipulative. And like he's having a temper tantrum. He can miss me with trying to play on people's emotion and act like Canada cares for Americans. Canada doesn't even want this man. All you trump haters and those who don't do research and believe the media are desperately trying so hard to see light and positivity where it done exist. What can anyone take away that America doesn't have right now. 70% of the population is damn near homeless and the avg job pays 14$ a hr. We already can't afford food way before trump got elected if our president thinks this is best then trust him\nWe want to much quick solutions. It's going to take a fight to make America great again ❤ time is everything. You can't expect no one to wave a magic wand and undo 12 yrs of democratic chaos. We have people that don't understand their gender. For years America has been every other countries sugar daddy! ENUFF. I SAY MORE TARRIFS❤

Well done to Canada , a logical speech by the prime minister ?

Why is it so hard for Trudeau to close Canada border?

China will help Canada

Canada God bless you.. This country is resilient

So how do i defect from the USA to Canada.

I stand with Canada ??

Donald lied about Canada...so how can anything be says be believable???\nHow

Thank you! I need to move to Canada ❤❤

His Excellency Trudeau is what excellency is all about. He didnt just save Canada, he might just have saved the world with this speech.

So when Russia takes Canada and they’re on your northern borders, maybe then you guys will do something about Trump

Canada should not be too economically dependent on the United States.Canada must have a strong economic position with countries around the world.The United States no longer considers Canada a friend.The United States under the leadership of a man who is arrogant and wants to do whatever he wants.The United States should not have arrogant leaders destroying its allies.Trump is just a piece of rotten wood that will be melted by water.The United States should not let a piece of wood lead the country..

As an American, I stand with Canada and our allies! This is nuts! Republicans, I thought it was peace day one. What happened? If Donald's lips are moving, he's lying.

USA is now aligned with Russia and fighting with Canada. Seriously, Americans wake the fuck up. Is this what you voted for last year??? ?

Im so proud of our Prime Minister Trudeau for fighting our beautiful country Canada. God bless Canada.

Godbless Canada

Stay honest and true in every way you can. Character really is destiny. I love my country but we are under siege by our own government, a group of sycophantic grifters who do not possess the wisdom, experience nor the disciplined intelligence to fulfill the duties their positions require. I stand with Canada and admire Mr. Trudeau for being willing to call out Donald Trump and address us Americans directly. Yes, we will all pay for this stupidity—except of course the MAGA elite.

I'm a Canadian. I am trying to wrap my head around why a President would start a trade war by imposing tariffs that hurt their allies and hurt his own people..!? I am not an economist nor an investor; However I found it interesting that the immediate result of this as they corresponded about this news is how the markets are taking a major dive. If I wanted to make money off the stock market and had no morals and had the power to cause it to crash, I would make sure it crashed hard by imposing tariffs. Then I would invest as many billions in the key stocks that will come back, and watch my billions turn into 10's or 100's of billions...\nThe other possible explanation could simply be that he wants all the critical minerals from Canada, Greenland, Ukraine for nothing. Taking those minerals for free and selling electric cars, miliatary equipment, etc. would be most profitable!\nBut greed seems to know no bounds for those who are wealthy, as long as it's at their gain and not at their expense!

The only thing that makes sense is that Trump may plan to let Putin invade Canada from the polar cap in retaliation for its refusal to submit to becoming part of the United States. It is very clear that Trump would not participate in the defense of Canada in the present context, even if it goes against all past history of North American partnerships and joint defense efforts.

Ashamed American here. Go Canada!!!

The American president has hurt Canada, the USA and the World. Hateful behavior.

Of all places, Canada? Why? Wtf is Trump doing?

Watch after a few weeks, Canada will start crying like a baby ????

Is Canada accepting US refugees? ?

Year 1812. Canada has been good to US for 100s of years.

Viva Canada

Well done Canada !!❤❤❤Start blocking usa trade and stop sending them energy, gas, and other basic resources.

Canada I stand with you ? Trump is a criminal both him and his cabinet them , they're a bunch of racist and Rapist Narcissistic evil people them!!

Bravo Canada!! ??

I want to move to Canada!!! Rescue us from ?

I'm a firm America and Americans first and Trump supporter, but I also love Canada. I hope we can figure this out for both of our beautiful countries. Canadians are our friends, but I also support Trump and putting America first. I hope he knows what he is doing. God Bless America and God Bless Canada. God Bless President Trump!

Nearly 73,000 comments in 8 hours, and so much support for Canada. As a Canadian, I am profoundly grateful, thank you all so much! We didn't want this, but we're in it with everything we've got.

Another embarrassed and enraged American here that stands with you Canada!

Michigander living in Louisiana (right now)—So embarrassed and ashamed of this country. Millions of us here in the US did NOT choose this administration—and we support Canada in its resistance, resilience, and continual rationality. I grew up very close to the Canadian border—should've moved up there when I had the chance. Open to Canadian marriage proposals! (Joking. (Sort of.))

It is not Americans it is Trump and Putin's minions ?. As an American I am embarrassed and stand with Canada ??

trudeau is a clown. Did'nt he resign ???? He is corrupt and Canada needs to get rid of him ??? they need someone that is capable ???

Cnn, go to Canada

I stand with Canada!

lol to those seeing Trudeau speak for the first time and coming to the conclusion that because he’s easy on the eyes, and is articulate that he is somehow competent. Dude just resigned as leader of his party and has driven Canada into the ground.
