Support from Australia for Canada against this redheaded putin puppet clown, MAKING AMERICA BROKE AGAIN

Paula Newton, you’re correct, how dare Trudeau talks to US citizens directly or addresses “Donald” directly, after Canadians have been told we’d make a great 51st State and our Right Honourable Prime Minister has been called a “governor”!\n\nThe AUDACITY!\n\nElbows Up, Canada!

This is ridiculous and so unnecessary Trump who ? This makes me wanna move to Canada now!

Make that make sense... Okay put your money where your mouth is... You don't want to help Russia make Canada the 51st state. Anything else is lip service

All you idiots that praise Justin Trudeau are not Canadians. This POS is the reason that Canada's middle class is now poor and suffering. There's no worse person than a liberal who talks nice but makes empty promises. Our cost of living is through the roof, our economy is tanked, our infrastructure is 30 years behind. We have now become a third world country thanks to clowns like this.

Canada’s 25% Tariffs? A Win for American Businesses in the Long Run\n\nAt first glance, Canada slapping a 25% tariff on U.S. goods might seem like a negative for America. But in reality, this move could actually work in our favor by making the U.S. economy stronger, more self-sufficient, and less dependent on foreign markets.\n\t1.\tBoosting American Manufacturing & Production – When Canada makes U.S. goods more expensive with tariffs, American businesses have a huge opportunity to shift focus to domestic markets and new trade partners. This could bring more production back home and reduce reliance on Canada.\n\t2.\tEncouraging Trade Diversification – The U.S. isn’t limited to Canada. If they want to play hardball, we can expand exports to other countries with fewer trade restrictions. Canada makes up about 15% of U.S. exports, but the rest of the world is wide open. This is a chance to diversify and strengthen our economy.\n\t3.\tMaking Canada Pay More for U.S. Goods – Tariffs don’t just hurt exporters—they also raise costs for Canadian consumers. If Canada wants American products, they’ll end up paying more or have to settle for alternatives that might be lower quality or more expensive from other countries.\n\t4.\tStrengthening America’s Negotiating Position – If Canada wants to raise tariffs, that gives the U.S. even more leverage in future trade talks. The U.S. economy is far larger and more powerful than Canada’s, and in the long run, they need us more than we need them.\n\t5.\tReducing America’s Trade Deficit – If fewer goods are exported to Canada, that means more products stay in the U.S. This helps lower dependence on foreign markets and could even stabilize prices for American consumers.\n\nBottom Line: Canada’s Move Hurts Them More Than It Hurts the U.S.\n\nIf Canada wants to put tariffs on U.S. goods, let them. In the long run, it pushes America to be more self-reliant, strengthens our industries, and forces Canada to pay the price for their own policies.\n\nAt the end of the day, America has the stronger economy, better resources, and more trade options—Canada needs U.S. trade more than we need theirs. If they want to make American goods more expensive, they’ll feel it a lot more than we will.

If we are going to be an authoritarian, antidemocratic, fascist dictatorship, we have to shed our old friends who would get all judgy about the the human rights abuses. So, step one, destroy relationships with friends. Step two, buddy up to Putin and other dictatorships who will be glad to trade and associate with us even if we do run concentration camps or whatever.\nOr Trump is sucking Putin's butt again for mysterious reasons. He likes it so much, like a drug addict, he is willing to lose everything . If it were just a matter of his individual tastes, I don't get it, but none of my business. Except by dragging the whole country down for his kink, it is out business. So, I think we should cut Trump lose to go to Russia and run around on his knees chasing Putin as much as he likes. Meanwhile, we need a president and I can only say F-no to Vance and I don't know how many other dictator butt goblins in the line of succession, so, since Trudeau is going to be looking for work, lets make and exception and hire him for president. I'd much rather have one with a pro-Canada bias than one one who seems to think he is Putin's Elon Musk.

We don't need these resources we buy from them. We have a trillion dollar deficit annually with Canada, make THAT make sense. Sorry Trump wants to even that out a little?

Trudeau is the epitome of western society's moral decay, under his leadership Canada has become a radical third world country, from gay marriage to state sponsored marihuana, to state sponsored gambling that floods the country. As a result, Canada today is the bedrock and safe haven for criminals, while ordinary Canadian people's lives continually decline, especially the working class who are struggling yet still cannot make ends meet. A lot of Canadians either have moved to the US, or they would like for Canada to be part of the US so that they have some hope. I am sorry for the Canadian people but have no sympathy for Trudeau.

There are many Americans who are angered by this horrible act and are repulsed by this and our country doing the bidding of Russia. It makes me sick! We love Canada and many many of us voted for Kamala not this?

Instead of making speeches talk to Trump and negotiate a deal to suit both Parties, otherwise you are hurting Canada's economy

Canada has to PROTECT THEMSELVES AFTER TRUMP/MUSK disclosed themselves to be TRAITORS OF THE USA, PURSUING PUTIN & OPEC NATIONS to make themselves maga-wealthy & HARM USA, RAISE $ PER BARREL & RETURN TO EVENTUAL OIL RATIONING IN USA -HISTORY TAUGHT US

Makes absolutely no sense for the US to go after Canada of all places. Absurd.

He did a good job making it sound like the US needs Canada. It's the other way around.

The biggest fear that D Trump has is that China becomes as strong as them. He uses Russia as his ally to physically threaten China. It's now time for the rest of the world to show that his plan can backfire. I think Europe and Canada should strengthen their free trade and investments with China (but make sure that they won't physically annex Taiwan). By making China stronger, Trump will finally realize the value of old friends and how dumb his plans were.

Ill maks it make sense. The usa cannot fight a 2 prong war. Europe needs to focus on Russia while usa focuses on china. It was proven a year ago that if we fought with both. We would run out of ammo in 2 weeks. We are competing with china now. Not Europe not Canada not mexico. China!

He is clearly not popular in Canada, Trump move to impose 25 percent tarries will make his butt kick off the chair sooner he would have expected.

Trump launch this trade war hoping to make Canada a new US‘s State, so he just treats those losses as the costs, he thinks these costs are just much much cheaper than launching military invasion!

Why hi is still there? He is nobody and most Canadians hate him. Canada need different person to make a deal with Trump, not this one.

I live by the Canadian border. It is NOT easy to cross. Trump is lying and just trying to make himself look good even knowing tht Canada is willing to be a partner in combating illegal drugs. He wanted to get his court problems etc off his table. He had to get elected. And ELON helped that. Without Elon the shadow president he wouldn't have. Hell Elon had to pay people to vote for him.

It DOESN'T make sense!! I'm so sorry Canada......I know WE Americans will be punished by this horrible/hateful human that some chose as a president.

I know a lot of people don't care for Trudeau. I am actually pretty impressed with him, and on his way out, he is showing his strength and intelligence. He has Canada's back even in his last days as Prime Minister. Let's make sure we elect a Prime Minister who is equally strong and can stand up the narcissistic bully called Trump.

Figured you'd be on CNN we don't need anything from Canada you need us thank you Donald Trump now maybe our country will start making everything we need like it used to be

Your a quit-er... U gave up onyour country because u are a coward ... And I will make it compulsory that Canada is a national security threat and audited and reconstructed by the is American country and say fuck the wanta be Americans imposters.... A hustler dont care about the hustle... It just so happens to be the middle man between a guy and his money.. !

All rrump talks about is how Canada has wronged America and makes us out to be the enemy. He never says be wants to work together as friends and buisness partners

Finally make Canada pay it's dues.

How is he defending Canadian jobs? The whole point of tarrifs is to make it unprofitable for American companies to use Canada for things like manufacturing, energy and other natural resources.\n\nThe liberal government is who made us weak where we depended on the trade deficit in our favour. If we looked at tapping our resources and finding other markets, we wouldn't be so far gone.\n\nTrudeau's answer? EI? More taxpayer debt?\n\nHe's trying to use this situation to garner support from the public. We're screwed.

All these years US has a trade deficit of 1 trillion dollars every year. With tariffs we could have recovered 250 billion every year. That is a lot of money. Currently every American owes $110,000 because of the accumulated debt of 36.5 trillion.\n\nJustin, how long are we supposed to bend back wards while US has a trade deficit of trillion dollar over the past 20 years. Why cant to you balance the imports and exports so that you don't have to keep taking advantage of USA. CNN did not see the trade deficit every single year for 20 years? what are they talking about? Our news channels have just become political entities rather than looking for the greater good of the Americans. One is for Republicans and others for Democrats - ridiculous. \n\nCanada and Mexico are saying, please stop tariffs, it is going to hurt America. LOL. No it is not. If tariffs were there in 2024, US would have gotten back 15 billion dollar revenue from Canada and Mexico would have paid 46 billion to USA. All this time, this was affecting only Americans and while you are enjoying not paying for your share, you have made US pay by taking loans to pay for the imports increasing our Debt. Yes it has been hurting America for the past 20 years, otherwise how did we accumulate 36.5 trillion debt.\n\nLike Justin said, if Canada can survive while paying 15 billion to USA, of course USA will do fine while collecting the 15 billion from Canada and 46 billion form Mexico. What do you all think that the public is blind?\n\nTo the American Public: Why would we impose tariffs, if that is going to hurt the US. And why are Canada and Mexico shaking in their boots? It would be naive, if you think it is out of their good heart. It had been hurting US for the past 20 years and they did not care. This time it is going to hurt them so all this fuss. The bottom line is that they don't want to pay all the excess that they have been dumping on us while they were benefiting. USA will use the revenue generated (total around 250 billion for 2025 form tariffs) to reduce our tax, make things more affordable, inject in to our own businesses and generate more employment.

Make America Southern Canada!!

I'm sorry about this viscous & needless act! I'm an American & I understand completely why Canadian's are upset. I also understand why you're going to retaliate, if you didn't, then I'd question your leadership. Canada has to do what's right for its people and Americans will understand why Canada has to do whatever it has to do for its People and Country. Trump's plan to make Canada the 51st State is by putting economic pressure on Canada until it can't stand anymore. This is his plan and now you can prepare Canadians for the fight ahead. God Bless Canada!!!

I hope Canada shuts down the pipeline that runs from Alaska. Make republicans pay for who they are!

Oh no maple syrup ............nooooo . Have any of you Canadians looked into what Canada imports vs exports .......... remeber all those new green deal garbage is out the window here in the USA, so lumber is going back up , mining , etc . Just because our countries are next to each other doesn't make us neighbors......... your country has allowed trahs polices to over ride your citizen rights, you've filled your country with migrants , you support crazy sick policies allowing sexual perversion to be put before public saftey . If your countries economy is so effected by this maybe you need this , got a little to relaxed riding tr he coat tails of being next to America. And don't take it personal , this isn't about you as a country but more about American calling out americna companies who build factories only your side , get great deals for taxes and then import the products back to American at a premium retail price and then profit off the American people while offering nothing back .........the end goal is to either make thise companies pay more to get products over the boarder , or bring the factories back here and employee americans .........and last I check the Canadian government doesn't own or produce any products so the things that will be imported to usa will be the ones with a cost rise to the companies that are producing them ........ them............

I see the comment section is completely one sided which is obsurd considering the # of views this video has(over 5.5 million in just 7 hours) and over 70k comments yet not a single comment opposes Canada ? I'll be sure to come back to this video later to verify my comment has been deleted. I'm taking a screenshot of this post after I hit comment as proof an attempt to make an opposing opinion on a cnn video was done, but was quickly removed. Lets see.....

Trump says he needs nothing Canada to offer…..yet oil and gas tariffs are only 10%.\nHmmm….\nI say shut off the taps to America, flip off the switch for electricity and make him come crawling back. Because that’s the only way American voters will understand what he is doing. America needs to revolt and end his reign of stupidity, because this is just the beginning of his\ntyrannical dictatorship.

Why did it take Trump to make Canada do obviously easy enforcement on Fentanyl? Shameful.

Trudeau is on his way out. Has five days left in office. He is very unpopular on both sides in Canada due to the state of things in Canada that have nothing to do with Trump. Obviously Americans commenting here aren’t aware of that. \n\nThe last thing most Canadians want Trudeau to do is publicly agitate Trump and make things difficult for the next prime minister.

We don't want our government either. Pls Canada make us a providence. Pls know most of us do not like this. King George Trump is not our voice.

We can't make it reasonable? Im disabled nurse on Medicare and I e already lost Medicaid and a lot of snap and have to pay more for meds... After 30 years as a nurse, I'd rather be dead than live here under this evil devil... I wish I could move to Canada or the UK where there is sanity

Make Canada Great always.\nBe united. \nGod has bellesed Canada with maximum natural resources in this beautiful world, including beautiful hearts of its people.\nThis temted your Close friend America to make you 51st state.\nWhy canadian people have to cross over to america illegally.\nStop dancing on the tune of American leaders.\nhistory shows that Canada always stands with America.

Has governor Trudeau not accepted the order from his boss President Trump yet, at making Canada Americas new state? ? I’m being sarcastic btw. I love Canada and dying for some poutine. I guess Burger King and some other burger chains here in Denmark comes close with their loaded fries, but it’s just not the same. The color of are flags are the same though. This is Trudeaus best speech, I always thought he was an idiot until today. Canada, je taime❤

Have fun with Trudeau. Im sure hes gonna make everything alright in Canada. ???

Looks like Trumps goal here is to bring Canada to its knees ( Trump is even trying to get Russian Aluminium to replace Canadian Alumininium) so he can make Canada go broke and beg to become the 51st state of the USA

This doesn't make any sense. We are the closest of friends. Why are we ratcheting up tension with Canada?

It makes sense if the end game is Trump invades Canada and Mexico, just like Putin invaded Ukraine

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

Where going to start making it here. We don’t need Canada

Shall not Europe make a deal with Ukraine and Canada now?

Canada doesn't seem to understand that we don't need them. We can make everything in america its simple. Thats the route trump is going. Sorry canada but time to take care of yourself. Its sad but canada should be able to take care of it's ppl on its own

Speaking the truth. I'ma nationalistic American and Canadian PM Trudeau is speaking the truth that we all wanna hear after what our own US president did to ruin America and make our lives worse. I fully support Canada now.
