I agree with Canada!

AS a Canadian i know what Trump wants from Canada, To agree he is right about getting out of Ukraine. And i totally agree with him. On Ukraine

America ?? First. If you agree with him then move to Canada where you will be taxed more 52%. Same as Mexico ?? I have traveled the world and we are still the best country in the world

I hope Canada doesn’t think we agree with Trumps ideas in any way. We should be working together with our fellow countries and standing proud.

Ya know, it’s honestly comical that some many people have these knee jerk responses to anything they deem “negative” STRICTLY for the fact that it came from Trump, and rather know TRULY ABSOLUTELY NOTHING behind the reason why these “negative” things are said or done in the first place… I ASSURE YOU 99% of the people complaining about this Canada tariff don’t know that it’s simply to (essentially) force Canada to agree to ramp up their border DEA enforcement/presence to help cut down on the illegal drug trade (primarily fentanyl) coming into America! If more of these people complaining knew this reasoning behind it, I think that would quite honestly shut a lot of them up! And to be completely honest with you, that failure falls on NO ONE MORE THAN THE JADED MEDIA!! I truly believe THAT is hands down the biggest failure in our nation currently!! The media is HANDS DOWN our biggest enemy so far this presidential term!

Sir, Mr Canada, I agree with you... we are in a stinking place! ? Drugs are certainly stinking and circulating strongly! There would be no drug movement without buyers!

i live in Canada and i do not agree with what Justin Trudeau is doing. We SHOULD back down from fighting! This is a war we cannot win.❤ Most people in Canada want Justin out of office. The government here is out of touch with reality, and out of control too.❤ i think Donald is doing a pretty good job. He is putting tariffs on imports because he wants people to buy items that are made in the United States of America. i think that is a good thing for Donald to do for the country of United States: putting America first.❤ The way i see it is that Canada is going to war with both Russia and the United States of America! Crazy.

Im from Texas. I have never agreed with the policies of Trump. I'll gladly be on the front lines with Canada.\n\nOur country has not only failed us, but the American people that call themselves American. We have turned into a bigger facist nation than Russia. At least some of them go missing for trying to whistle blow on an international level. Meanwhile, we cry to each other internally as if anyone has the balls to stand up

I totally agree with Canada. America wake up this is horrible for both countries. We never wanted a Kingship in America. This is a real Leader!

I don't agree with tariffing canada. That wasn't a good move to do that to our ally. Causing unessary problems for no reason.

Why are we insulting Russia. Russia should be our trade partner. Yet, we support Israel. Disgusting. I agree with the tariff stance, but the whole Russia and China criticism is rooted in Canada's relationship with the US. They're enemy was our enemy. Smart'n up Trudeau.

Trump is a mentally deranged idiot he is not friends with anyone but other dictators cuz that's what he wants to be he has said it and people have heard it yet the dumb people of the United States think oh the orange man in office is great.\nHey Canada you got the room for a family at 7:00 with three dogs and some cats because I will gladly become a Canadian citizen I am ashamed to be an American right now and I do not agree with what Trump is doing and yeah help

As an American, I want our Canadian neighbors to know that MANY Americans agree with and support Canada ?. Our President is an embarrassment to the whole world.

I agreed with everything Trudeau said, except when he said Trump is a very smart person. Stupid is what stupid does. Trump does stupid like no other. This is Canada's time to shine. We need our pipelines flowing to both the East and West coasts. It is time for Canadians to invest in Canada and cut our dependence on U.S. trade.\nAmericans need to start understanding, it is Americans who pay the tariffs. They are just a tax. It has nothing to do with the border, or drugs, or migration. This is a tax on the working class and the poor so the rich can continue to get 5 TRILLION dollars in tax cuts.

Im so sorry Canada ,?\nMost of us do not agree with this admin....they are a disgrace to our country \ndoing evil to our democracy....we love Canada ????

As an American I agree, with Canada and Mexico. I can't believe that the people of my country elected Trump knowing the damage he was going to cause. He should be in prison not in the White House.

I don't agree with this as a lifetime American i never had a beef with Canada your my neighbors being from Detroit

There is no they. I don’t agree with this. I want to leave the USA and move to Canada. If accepted of course. ?.

Why are you giving this lying piece of shit of a prime minister any airtime whatsoever I agree with the fact that Trump is going a little overboard with the tariffs but to listen to this guy nobody in Canada wants to even see this man's face so by you even putting it on there just basically makes your station that less credible

I support this more than Trump, and I'm sure the majority of Americans agree at this point.\n\nI can't stand the hypocrisy on immigration though. Canada has us as a buffer from a country desperate to get in, and they are still allowed to have very secure borders without getting flack.\n\nWhen America just doesn't want the faucet of immigration on full blast, we are the bad guys.\n\nThe Fentanyl excuse is absurd when it comes to Canada and the tariffs. It's a legitimate concern from the southern border. The northern border has never been an issue...

Dear Canada since you are contiguous with Denmark your application for EU membership would be welcome and quickly agreed. \nGo for it Canada! ????

I mean he’s certainly well spoken Im sure we all can agree but factual….not so much. People do your research on Chinese Triad gang members buying up real estate in Vancouver to launder money from drug sales. There is no doubt a growing problem in Canada that is impacting the US. By the numbers Canada illegal border crossings and Fentanyl crossing volume might pale in comparison to Mexico but it’s important to note that it’s still a rising problem they’ve yet to fully understand. Look at how much of the Northern US border is unguarded compared to the southern border. This tariff war between the US and Canada is no doubt a problem but Canada is absolutely a part of the reason it exists. In the end please remember there’s always two sides to every story and mainstream media is anything but objective when it comes to how they cover them.

Thank you Mr. President! Nothing but respect! You are a class act, a fine example of what a man with character and common sense should act like… Trump is very jealous because he’s such a toddler constantly throwing temper tantrum‘s, he has no respect for anyone not even himself. Most of us stand with Canada and agree with you… It’s unfortunate we have a common criminal sitting in our oval office… God help us all ????

Agree with Canada & the Wall Street journal, tariffs in Canada are dumb. This is not a good way to MAGA. It’s only to fatten up Trump and his rich friends. Canada is our friends, it’s beyond reason. But then, I knew this is what Trump would do. ??ing it isn’t for long. I’m so sorry. ? American here.

Working Canadians support Trump. All the loud mouths that take 25 years to pay off their mortgage talking shit about a man thats made it big several times hahaha the same uneducated liberal followers that are agreeing with the prime minister that ruined Canada and helped fund the killing in both Ukraine and Palestine. Pathetic! Clown trying to pin Trumps tarifs that just started today for the mess hes caused..no wonder 80% of Canadians are embarrassed but the comments here show the other 20%

Writing from France, I agree with all these comments. We Stand with Canada, Europe and Ukraine. Donald Trump has to be under Putin's thumb. Putin pulls the strings.

So for everyone fawning over Trudeau's ability to be articulate, that is impressive to you only because the U.S. has had a piece of steamed broccoli named Biden as a figure head for the last 4 years.\nI can't say I understand Trump's strategy with respect to Canada, but I absolutely know that Trump is no Socialist like Trudeau is. I am happy to wait and see how this shakes out because Trump has been right on so, so many things. No one is perfect, not Trump and not Trudeau. Maybe it's not about drugs. Maybe Canada could offer to go back to respecting individual liberties and free speech in return for the elimination of U.S. tariffs. Sounds like something Trump would agree to.

Blame Canada! Blame Canada! You've abused the US for the LAST TIME! LOL. I can agree with one thing he said. Putin is a lying murderous dictator.

Europe has just announced an 800 billion Euro defence plan; I bet they’d be very interested in Canada’s critical minerals. Canadians will not forget this; this has damaged our relationship with the U.S. and it may never recover. We cannot forget that Americans voted this man back into power knowing who and what he is; they somehow believed that he was magically going to lower the cost of eggs, end a war and save the economy. Canadians will never trust that Americans won’t again elect someone so stupid and pathetically unfit to lead their country; we have to start cutting the trade ties now so that we will never be this vulnerable again. I do agree with Dumpty that we need to pull our weight militarily, so we need to invest in our security and we also need to align ourselves with Europe since Dumpty is clearly aligning the U.S. with Russia.

God Bless PM Trudeau. This American agrees with you. God Bless our allies in Canada. ❤

My friends would not have it where I paid them $5000 and they paid me $1000\n\nI don't even want to hear your lies Trudeau. You are calling Americans stupid right to their face. \n \nBecause only somebody really stupid would agree that America paying Canada three times more than Canada pays America is honest or the way it should be.

As an American I'm 60 yrs old. And I totally agree With Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau 1000%. I never wanted Trump. And let's make this clear by all means. To those that voted for his dumb ass I hope u you got what you wanted. HE DOES NOT GIVE A CRAP BOUT AMERICA ONLY PUTIN WHO WITH TRUMP BEING THE ULTIMATE ASS KISSER TO HIM TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY AND THE PEOPLE WITHIN IT. GOD HELP US ALL. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY. TRUMP IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF.

Although I don’t agree with Trumps actions let’s not forget what Trudeau and his party did to Canada…

American I agree with Canada a trade war not a good idea

As an American the citizens don't really have a choice on what trump decides to do. If you want to match his 25% tariffs I think you should. We qlso don't want to help putin hurt others. We want to work with Canada our allies. I don't personally know anyone that doesn't agree with this but that doesnt meant they do not exost.

I am a Canadian and agree with Trump. Working on my citizenship! Tired of conservatives, liberals and democrats!!\n\nJustin Trudeau will fuck this up, like he told Zelenskyy to not take the deal with Trump!\n\nJT is a traitor to Canada… Oops, I mean New India.

Its funny to me that its ok for you to stick up for canada but you dont agree with our president trump sticking up for american people

I’m an American, and I strongly agree Canada retaliation to trade war even though I voted for dumping trump

So Canada agree to spend over one billion and still get slapped to the face with tariffs.\nYou Think Ukraine signed the peace deal with Russia and expect the war to go away?

Respect for Canada from Romania! I used to agree with Trump and Musk on some things but I can't state how much they've fallen in my eyes. Trump ally of Putin? That's insane..

Respect for Canada from the USA. We don’t agree with this madness that’s been unleashed. We could use a leader like Trudeau in the USA! May God help us all.

Canada is a puppet state; it agreed with every sanction the US put on other countries, but guess what, it's your turn now.

I agree Never been to Canada but Canada are nice and polite 100% agree

The really sick thing is that it was trump who signed the Free Trade Agreement himself in his first term! This is part of trumps project 2025, put the Canadian economy in shambles to make it easier to ‘annex’, he has a God complex, he will even ruin his own economy so he can fix it before the mid-term election, so he will be a hero! He is a vindictive person who will not honour what he agrees to, he throws out accusations and insults with a sneer and wants to be Putins friend! So many Americans are horrified by their Governor trump! He wants a military base on the Northwest Passage, that is why he wants Canada!

Im agree with Canada ????????

My indigenous American background has tought me better than this and we stand with Canada, UK, Mexico and Europe. It's shameful what is happening here in the US and I just want everyone to know that there's many of us that do not agree with what's going on. We don't stand with Russia or any dictatorship. Now let's see how many hate comments I get and from what side, it'll be crystal clear who's who. Ukraine we also stand with you ??

I agree, this isn't about Fentanyl. I'm starting to think it's more about putting such a wedge between the U.S. and Canada that Trump will feel emboldened to do whatever it takes to take over Canada, making it the 51st state, after all. I know that sounds ridiculous, but tell me when he truly HASN'T been ridiculous!

I’m American I stand with Canada ?? \nOur government is nuts I do not agree with them

Support from Michigan to Canada! I do not agree with what is happening in the US at all!

You're reasonable? Don't place your opinion on all Canadians. They don't agree with your leftist actions. If you were reasonable you wouldn't be placing tariffs on all American products exported to Canada. Now, reciprocal tariffs are fair. Why don't you tell your people the TRUTH
