Trump = Trojan . \nI will said it a million times . \nAmerica dark times is coming

We, the Canadians, stand by our government. We are prepared to go through this and come out well . We did not fight this fight and we feel for those who did not vote for Trump in America

Trump should put a warrant for arrest out for Trudeau ! If he comes to the US they should lock him up

Kudos to the PM Trudeau for speaking out against Trump tariffs. Mr. Trudeau sees what the Trump voters fail to see prior to the elections. Trump is using the excuse of stopping drugs coming into the country. When in reality his tariffs will only benefit corporations. These tariffs will be passed down to the consumers who will pay for them. If everyone who voted for Trump weren't deaf and blind we would not have to now worry more about inflation and higher prices. All those who blamed Biden for increased prices should have looked back at the pandemic that Trump failed to acknowledge.

Trump don't care He don't care about that. That's just the Trojan-horse. So you don't pay attention of what he's doing. He's just hurting, he's gonna hurt. The Americans first and definitely never going to get Canada. Because if we gotta do World War 3. Come on, we'll play the game. We'll put our cards on the table. Trump

It is a sicked and dumb Trump coming back. American is no longer a reliable partner to the world because of your government's silliness and stupidity. No one should welcome Americans if you guys continue to this path down the road next 4 years. Even your closest alley is abandoning you! Let's hope that your loyal dogs don't bite you 1 day???!

Everyone has called Justin and idiot for years... now... he standing up to Trump and everyone comes out of the woodwork to support him lol.... Trump doesnt do anything without a reason or plan. The man has been hitting nothing but net for decades. Goahead and have your @sshole pumped full of rainbows for a minute or 2... but I guarantee whatevers up Trumps sleeve will soon be revealed. The U.S has been beaten down by shitty trade deals for years and years.

“Russia, Russia, Russia” Hey FBI NSA CIA Etc… Putin has stuff on Trump and they’re squeezing him. Come out with it and have this idiot be impeached before he sinks this country!!!

The fentanyl is made in China. The Chinese bring some to Mexico and COMES TO AMERICA IN VEHICLES CROSSING THE BORDER THROUGH LEGAL POINTS OF ENTRANCE. The rest of the fentanyl, the Chinese SEND IT TO AMERICA IN CARGO SHIP THROUGH LEGAL PORTS. So Canada... eh... mmmm... Canada... they... uh... ? Ask Trump ??‍♀️

Dear Canadian neighbors. \n I apologize for our crazy Karen’s trump and musk. \n Please be patient. \n I think we will both come through this in the long run. \n You are so lucky to have a President who cares for ALL OF YOU. \n A REAL MAN, not a BULLY. \n This will indeed be tough times for all of us. \n God Bless God Speed\n from USA

I think it is time to use all the unused land to grow our vegetation and any thing else that gets planted to use for the Canadian. We do have the brain and the finances to grow our own fruit even if it takes a couple of years for the plants to produce the vegetation to supply the need. We need to manufacture our own goods. It is only one simple issue we will face but it is one we can handle! Oil, gas, car parts and cars...do it here and get some of the unemployed individuals Living on Provincial Checks off their butts and put them to work. (any that can at all} It might just surprise people at how many would have a reason to get up in the morning and the self confidence they need to get rid of the very thing Trump said was killing US people and stop it from coming in from the US! If we are going to tell it lets tell the truth!.

This is BEYOND enraging and embarrassing as an American. Trump is the biggest danger to the world and world peace! Millions of us Americans support you Canada and Ukraine! And Trumps supporters sure are quiet about those supposed “cheap eggs” here comes the disastrous tariffs!

Just goes to show what a pathetic imbelsil Trump really is , how the hell has it come to this ?

Lex Luther was always Supermans friend , greatest guys I know , Putin and Trump ! Bringing to you on the world stage , chaos , division , and bondage unto submission ! LETS MAKE A DEAL , COME ON DOWN !!!???

Trump has placed himself in a corner. He's completely incompetent. Because he is a bully and thinks people will roll over, he is going to look weak when he has to roll them back. When Canada cuts off the water, car parts, etc. and people start losing jobs such as car manufacturing, there will be a price to pay. It won't be an end to MAGA, but if he lets this go on for too long, he will never come back from it.

Time for good people to take a stand against this darkness of Trump, Putin, Vance and Musk!! God is watching and they shall reap what they sow!!\nWe must ALL turn to our Saviour Christ Jesus who is the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but through Him.❤??????????????????????

We need to bring back jobs to America. Trump has clearly stated that those who come to America and make their products here will NOT face tarriffs. Toyota, Porsche, and Audi are doing it. \nAlso, it brings jobs to America. Why are Americans complaining about more jobs for their peers? Its crazy

Being it's come down to this division and dealing with Traitor Trump I am sure Trudeau's relieved his role as Prime Minister is quickly coming to an end.

Trump is trying to weaken our country so he can then hand it over easily to Russia. I will not bow to Russia. Russia, come and try to take this country and find out!!!

My heart hurts watching this. As an American, I respect and agree with Prime Minister Trudeau. Canada has been a kind and generous ally, and our current government leaders are just coming up with excuses for this stupid ass trade war. \n\nI am so sorry to all the Canadian citizens whom this negatively impacts. I hope you will show grace to those of us who voted against Trump and who continue to stand up to this tyrant.

They did drake wrong. I knew they were coming for entire country. Trump has 21 days to change his mind about the war .

There is no economic war! A war is a war. The tarrifs is a fuse for an escalation, and this is likely what Trump plans. I wouldn't be surprised that the former suggested a partnership to Putin to militarely attack Canada, and the world, by the way. Lets think about this. One day, people from US may wake up with all your money in cripto money not belonging to US anymore. No need to be a psychic or prophet to see this coming.

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.

How come Canada didn't do something about the illegals coming through their border and the fetanal problem until Trump was elected? During Biden Canada wasn't really concerned. BTW how about the US stop exporting aircraft parts to Canada

Nice speech PM Trudeau. .. Concise and level headed unlike the rambling gibberish coming from the orange clown that inhabits the Oval office. Trump for some reason hates America and wants it in a weakend state . Trump doesn't see himself as president but as a an autocratic ruler like Putin. Trump=Putin's stooge and UI

Americans who are listening to\n\nCould you please tell your premier Trump\nTo quit referring to our PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU \nAs a Governor\n\nVERy DISRESPECTFUL\nBut than again it’s coming from the Biggest Dictator in the world\n\nGOD BLESS CANADA\nKEEP CANADA GREAT\nTHE GREATEST FREE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD \n✝️??✝️??✝️??✝️??

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❤

If you watch CNN ? you are part of the problem LOL check on WHO pays them to spin the narrative!\n\nWar? Dictator ? Those are some strong and exaggerated words. As a diplomat he should know better ? just protect the borders like a good neighbor and you won’t have any issues … I think the US will be ok. \n\nCanada ?? has been an open border, ask all your DoorDash and Uber drivers in the US where they are coming from !!!! They all say Canada… Indians, Turkish, Palestine, Hispanics… quit lying ?\n\nJust because he speaks gently doesn’t mean he ain’t full of ?\n\n“Donald” uhmm President Trump .. homeboy shows little respect … for the president the entire country chose.

Come on USA, stand up to Trump! Strength in numbers

Trump just wants you to secure your border to prevent fentanyl operation and coming into usa...but you are so stubborn to do that.

What a strong, fact based response. Never been more proud of Trudeau. Trump has chosen to start a trade war that is going to hurt Americans the most. Let's join hands to support local businesses by buying local when possible, even when it hurts the pocket. Standing strong with Canada ?? . We will come out strong ???

FACT: There is MORE Fentanyl moving from the US TO Canada than the other way around. Trump is lying to his party but sadly they just eat it up. Dark days are here and Civil war is coming to the US because Donald will try to stop protesting with violence. He is already threatening pulling funding from any college or university that allows campus protesting. WTF is that besides a NAZI maneuver?

Where are all the MAGA supporters??? This thread is too reasonable and level-headed. Well, I guess they are losing steam. Trump is a bully and an embarrassment on the world stage as far as this US citizen is concerned. Where is Elon Mush? I used to have some respect for Elon, but jumping in bed with Trump is a mistake Mush will come to regret. I guess I need to protect my retirement investment portfolio - I think Trump will decimate it by destabilizing the stock market's confidence like this. sigh...

Canada, I am standing with you from NC. Your leader and government are responding in an appropriate manner. trump and vance have brought shame to the US. All the lives that our country has lost in wars were not sacrificed to come to this moment.

Hey Canada/Trudeau if you don’t want the tariffs from President Trump then remove your limiting factors on American goods to equal the playing field! Maybe these tariffs and our President may finally get you to allow into Canada as much as we do into the USA! Trying to play a game of tariff against President Trump will not do Canadians any good. This is part of the reason you won’t be the tyrant dictator you once enjoyed being. Not to mention the Canadian government should be doing a lot better on stopping the cartels and their POS fentanyl from coming into their country as well as across into the US!

Did I read somewhere that 80% of the fertilizer America uses for farmers comes from Canada?\n\nI note that Canada stated they will give a targetted response at Trump friendly states Florida for ranges etc. Looks like America wants to go it alone.

The people cheering this move by Trump are the same people who complained groceries prices were too high under Biden during the election. Well, buckle the F up because you all asked for what's coming.

The moment Pres. Trump threatened Canada with the tariff trade war months ago, I was shocked. How come your closest ally, a friend, your closest neighbor, shared the longest border in the world, fought side by side in ww1, ww2, middleast conflicts etc., and now the relationship starts to deteriorate because of one man's arrogance.

Trump doesn't care about Fentanyl.... he's just a moron that thinks tarrifs are going to be a money maker for him. \nIts the only economic policy he's come up with in 10 years.

Another guy who is telling Americans what Americans is going to feel. \nZelensky gave this same speech and now he wants to come back to the table. \nDidn’t Trudeau quit? \nTrump is waiting for the new guy. Didn’t Alberta already agreed partial terms with trump already.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but Trump is just putting the same tariffs on them that they already put on us.\nStop those drugs from coming across

I support Trump and I support MAGA. However a president needs to keep his word and Trump appears to have broken his word here. He asked Canada to reign in illegal immigration to the US and Canada complied. He said do something about fetanyl and Canada did. Trump said the tariff's were because Canada was not acting on these but now they have and we imposed the tariff's anyway. We look like liars and cheats. \nEven with Mexico we threatened tariffs if they didn't help with crackdown on illegal immigration, fetanyl, and drug cartels. Mexico complied and is also helping us. And we still slapped tariffs on them. We lied to Mexico too. \nAnd now we want everyone to trust us to negotiate a peaceful end to the Ukraine war with Trump threatening more sanctions on China and the EU. What the heck should they trust us and believe us after what we just did. \nWhen it comes to defining your character your willingness to keep your word overrules absolutely everything else. Our president gave his word that if these countries took certain actions there would be no tariffs. They did and now he slapped them both in the face with sanctions anyway. He broke his word. This is a dishonorable action. I hope it does not escalate from there. \nIf it was about promoting or building domestic industries, I think the Canadians could have helped us with that but now.... good luck now that bridge has been burned.

Canadian Government is ripping off there tax payers and Laundering money just like the Biden administration.. You guys need a guy like Trump to come in and drain the swamp just like here in the US. The corruption is deep... Trump can be rude and unhinged, sometimes but he gets shit done. Hope you Canadians get a Prime Minster that will cut fraud and taxes for you. That's where your real threat is.

Dont understand why trump is messing with canada, its actually fucking dumb. Trump talking about ww3, if America dont stop everyone will be against us. Drugs coming through different states from mexico to make it to Canada not from canada into the United States.

We should all of us around the world , Canada Mexico Eu China ect boycott all together USA at once Till the Tangerine Tyran felt humiliated as Zelinsky was On that day , and please You MAGA fashists keep Your red stupid caps when you cross your border , We will treat you as you deserve as Trump treat the rest of the World , And for the others Artists , Humanists numerous good Americans come to EU or Canada whe have free healtcare that works way better that in Us , good food , culture and cool unarmed peaple to hang with . Your welcome and we know how terrible is fashisme America Rebel You !!!

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!

Great speech Mr. Trudeau can you come down and teach Trump how to speak properly? Please. TRUMP IS SO EMBARRASSING

Trump has completely turned around when it comes to Canada and Ukraine.

Clearly Donald Trump does not understand the simple concept of Tariffs...when reporters ask him questions he deflects the questions., President Trump is not acting according to the oath he has taken as President. Its obvious this is a revenge trip for all of the legal issues against Trump over the last years,, he is taking it personal and damaging so many critical pillars within the US and its all gonna come down and thats where he thinks he will personally win ie get his revenge.

Hey trump. Try speaking like this. Start by not lying. You can tell when trump is lying. It's whenever there's noise coming out of his mouth.
