To my fellow EU citizens, please consider a trip to Canada instead of the US. The exchange rate is great for you and your euros will go a long way. We need your support ????

Canada is taking 200 billion from America; Trump says you can't do that anymore, and Canada wants to keep taking from us; they don't even want to renegotiate with new and more fair contracts; you got my support, Trump. Why do all these countries think they can keep stealing from us

Can I ask what is the root cause of this tariff. What is actual trumps demand for this tariff and if his demands are good why Canada and Mexico could not resolve the difference? I am not supporting trump but thought of asking for the reason.

go canada, go candada, germany supports you! \nF trump.

It's not just all the parties supporting Canada's counter tariffs. The Canadian people are in support, across political, cultural, economic and geographical lines. Canada has not been as unified about anything that I can remember (and I'm old). Plus, Canadians are a stubborn people with a more community oriented attitude than the USA and we don't like bullies. If we have to change brands of food, stop drinking bourbon and American beer, pay a bit more, even pay more taxes to cover the costs for people affected... so be it. BUT... when the tariff's are lifted, don't be so sure we'll just start buying American again. Stubborn also means we don't let things go easily.

The EU must support Canada to keep prices as low as possible for Canadians.\n\nUS American politicians in general and the gorilla have to learn that their arrogance is inacceptable.

Sweden support Canada!! ????

Hopefully people around the world respond by buying as little as possible from the US (especially from the billionaires and states that support Trump). Trump is going to try to divide and conquer, and if the US will attack Canada, no democracy is immune.

Time to respect and support Canada and Mexico.

As an Indian I support Mexico and Canada govt

This American totally understands your need to protect your economy, Canada...and supports your decision. Hopefully one day, America will be forgiven for this madness--if it survives. ?

We are proud to have Prime Minister Trudeau lead the charge against the bombastic Trump trade war. It is unlikely that our MAGA Conservative leader, Pierre Poilieve, currently supported by Elon Muskrat and many of Trump's cronies, could ever deal with a trade war that would defend Canada.

Justin Trudeau's border plan of 1.3 billion over six to ten years is a joke! Tariffs on America after several US administrations tried to work with Canadian governments to stop provocations in trade, border security, immigration, and many other issues, only to fall on deaf ears or passive responses, not to mention Trudeau's derogatory comments about Trump being a racist. At the same time, Trudeau was caught having a history of wearing racist blackface. Not wise! \n\nFor some odd reason, Trudeau thought it was also wise to mock the American President, Donald Trump, with other European leaders while attending a meeting in the UK at Buckingham Palace, which clearly invited bad blood between the two. Not to mention his missteps while traveling in Europe and meeting with Kamala. He also increasingly chose to snuggle up to China. However, America has provided Canada with favorable trading relations and high-cost subsidies in the form of military and territorial security for decades. That clearly was a slap in the face and wasn't very smart! You had to figure some American president would ultimately say enough!\n\nAmerica has supported, defended, and offset the national defense costs of European nations for over seventy years, while EU countries and their leaders have routinely mocked and ridiculed Americans. Is it really classy to slap the face of someone who protects and supports you and your quality of life? No, it's not! Tariffs on EU products are likely coming soon, and reduced defensive support for Europe means they will have to pay more taxes for their defense and goods.

American here. I support Canada and Mexico boycotting our products. Less demand means lower prices for us. It's a win win for both sides :)

For the vast majority of Americans, including Trump who don't know this: \n- 90% of all aluminum used in the USA comes from Canada. \n- 80% of the potash used to grow food on US farms comes from Canada. \n- Steel is made in Canada. - Uranium is exported from Canada. \n- Minerals needed for electronics are exported from Canada. The only alternatives are China and Russia. \n- 60% of all imported oil in the US comes from Canada. \n- Electricity produced in Canada is delivered to the states of New York, Vermont, Maine and over 20 other US states. We’ll soon find out if convicted felon Trump and his supporters need Canada when that electricity gets turned off. If Trump can rip our mutually-negotiated agreements so can Canada. We did not ask for this economic war nor did we start it. Trump did. \n \nIt's also time to super-tax every pound of US coal being exported through Roberts Bank Super-port in Delta, British Columbia, Canada. The American coal exported through Roberts Bank does not even pay a provincial carbon tax like all BC residents pay. Canadians are about to show Trump what happens when you consistently lie and stab your best customer and neighbour in the back. We are not afraid of Trump. Canada is the second-largest country in the world by land area and we have the longest coastline in the world, with over 243,000 kilometers of shoreline. We will continue expanding our trade with Pacific Rim countries, Europe, Mexico and beyond. They all need and want our lumber, minerals, oil and gas, grass fed beef, and the dependable, respectful trading partner that we are.

About 52% of Americans including myself would support Canada and Mexico putting 25% tariffs on US goods. I wish Canada would also put a 50% export tariff on oil too.

SUPPORT CANADA ?? ❤️. BEST NATION. WE WON'T BREAK. WE WILL ALWAYS PROGRESS.

I support Mexico and Canada , so sad the states must need tariff wars , be hard on his own people

Canadian here while I support what the PM is doing, I don’t think a tit for tat solution is enough. Canada needs to look for other trading partners like China. Let’s have a free trade agreement with them and rip up USMCA. That’ll fix the trade deficit overnight. Similar thing for military we can save the Pentagon billions by leaving NORAD and NATO and building a strategic joint defence agreement with China.

Canada is also doing something with oil and gas and thats just Canada wait. Trump is threatening allot of countries who will retaliate, joining together against trump. Trump knows he can't get the debt ceiling thing through the house so raising prices with tarrifs and taking all social supports are the next best way to fund his tax breaks for elon and the wealthy.

Perfect speech from Trudeau today - I fully support him & Canada.

Trump has already admitted: Tariffs do raise the US Cost of Living and that they are paid by US Consumers (including MAGA Consumers) NOT by the foreign country. He originally imposes a 25% Trump Tariff on Canada but only 10% on its oil and gad exports to the US. WHY?! Because he knows Tariffs will increase the Cost of oil imported to the US and therefore gas prices, and increase the Cost of Living to MAGA Consumers and decrease his political support. Trump is a grifter, so anything he proclaims is likely 10% truth and 90% Lies. Watch what he does and not what he says!

??Canada WILL sustain itself! With abundant resources (oil, gas, minerals, timber, water), a strong economy, global trade, skilled labor, and food self-sufficiency, we stand strong! ???\n\nTo our American friends, thank you for standing with Canada. Your support means the world to us! We appreciate you and our shared bond as neighbors. Love you all! ❤️????\n\nCanada leads with universal healthcare, lower crime, strong social programs, stricter gun laws, better work-life balance, 18-month paid maternity leave, and stunning nature! True North, strong and free! ???\n\nWith our global allies—the UK, Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Japan, South Korea, and the entire Commonwealth—Canada thrives in international trade, security, and diplomacy! ????\n\nTo our American neighbors, stay safe. We’re thinking of you and standing with you through all challenges. Sending love and strength! ??❤️??

Americans don’t seem to understand that all the “cool things to do and see in the USA” you don’t need to actually live in the USA to enjoy those we can just get on a plane and fly to those places for vacation just like Americans do. We had our honeymoon on Oahu, stayed two weeks in a VRBO in Waianaie with all the native Hawaiians, rented a jeep, drove around, saw all the things, felt bad for all the service workers who live only on tips under labor laws that a third world dictatorship wouldn’t even subject its people to.\n\nNotice how all the things Canadians criticize America for it’s for being needlessly cruel and horrible to people when there’s the option to be compassionate and supportive and ethical?\n\nBut then every thing Americans criticize Canada for it’s for being “too compassionate”, “too supportive”, “too caring” when the option American say we should have taken instead was the the option of unnecessary cruelty?

Right now Canadaian borders are wide open, no one is actually running the country, same ppl who ruined the country are trying to get elected again without even an inch of remorse, it has become a breeding ground for terrorist supporting groups, foreign interference, everyone can do what evr they want without having to face consequences, smuggling hundreds of kilos of drugs easily across the borders...Canada is now a land that is imploding and a prime example of how to run a country to ruins in 9 yrs...

Canada dominated by Indians and Uk dominated by Pakistan? Those ppl destroyed all good countries? Who cares human rights? They support criminals? What they done to European countries is unforgivable? Human rights won’t pay for those illegal immigrants, taxpayers pay ? So,, better deport all illegal immigrants?

Good move Canada support from Saudi Arabia \n??❤️??

This country President n it's ppl all same \nPrevious president support the terrst who was wanna attack india now Canadians citizen supporting their evil greedy previous president pathetic country canada why west show canada as polite country which polite country behave like this \nPathetic abusive country n i remember Canadian company who hire cheap employees to work in india for their organization thy literally pay nothing for so much work country beggar n racist also

They enter canada illegally, hide out for 14 days, after which there entitled to financial support, canada is over run with parasites immigrants who bring nothing to the table.

Too little too late. Trudeau and previous governments have destroyed Canada. I doubt this country will recover. Unless we get a trump that enforces mass deportation and starts plane loads going home everyday the wages are destroyed now and skilled workers are already leaving the country. The majority of immigrants we are getting now are permanent generational welfare/child tax benefits and elderly immigrants now. Without actually requiring immigrants to have skills, speak the language, and work to support themselves Canada will be bankrupt soon enough.

You cant live in Canada unless you have the money to support yourself

Canada could use a pause on all immigration for 2 years. Maybe longer. FOCUS ON SUPPORTS FROM OUR TAX DOLLARS TO HELP CANADIANS. Instead... there giving our money to newcomers when Canadians desperatly need help. Scam through Service Canada and Service ON that fund Employment service, agencies etc. I couldn't believe what I witnessed and even experienced.

As a legal immigrant to Canada I support president Trump

This is India Govt problem. Modi president made His 2 friends rich Ambani and Adani, those peiniaed to sace his position ti be a Prine minister suckinh poor people blood like note bandit and snatching middle class people jobs pkus winning election distributing funds among poor people those are poor due to Modi Govt. India need Prine minister like Rahul Gandhi who did loss of work walk around all states to awaken people those were sleeping. Due to big Population and corruption of Govt no one can get ahrad except Gujaratis and Dourh Indian plus Panjabis due to their support system.\n\nNew election.\nPopulation control \nAwaking people \nUnity among all religions.\nNo Hindu or Muslims and thise fights due to political pressures they should be jails for 5 yrs prison.\n\nModi ji is uneducated plus his history in 2002 everyone knows. Gujarstis are very powerful in USA since arrivrd 40 plus yrs back tgen brought illegals to hrlp them build their life. In the Patel community, there is unity just like the Pakistani community. Die to that thry can achieve any goal. Other states induans should learn lessons.\nPlus, the USA Govt should have a quota according to India population. Since USA Govt focus is Africa and Afghan and so on, tgere sgoukd be quota according to States how much they can take in under Asylums since there are many murders and crime in India and USA plus Canada can help them. India Govt should build good relationships with USA Govtvwhich is a must.

Blaming immigrants for systemic problems is often misplaced and unfair. Immigrants who work hard and contribute to society, are not the root cause of challenges such as housing shortages, healthcare pressures, or job market competition. These are complex issues stemming from broader systemic factors like government policies, urban planning, and economic strategies.\n\nImmigrants play a significant role in strengthening Canada’s economy. They fill labor shortages, contribute to innovation, and enrich cultural life. However, when governments fail to address structural issues like insufficient infrastructure or support systems, it’s easier for some people to scapegoat immigrants rather than look at deeper causes.\n\nThank God I left Canada in 2022 ... It's not the right place to settle...

It' the MAGA mentality. In Canada over the last 2 1/2 years Pierre Poilievre has been blaming Trudeau for everything. Just like Trump blamed Biden/Harris for everything. But especially for immigration. Poilievre and Trump have blamed immigration for job loss, housing shortage, healthcare inefficiency, crime, urban decay. Poilievre and Trump don't try to differentiate between refugees/asylum seekers and legitimate immigrants. Canada's birth rate has been falling every year since the 1960s. Canada needs immigrants. Both the Conservative and Liberal governments supported immigration in the past. Poilievre is using immigrants to rile up the racists and the ignorant, for his own political gain.

I have lived in Canada most of my life. I've felt lonely here most of the time. It is a rich county but so isolating. It's hard to make friends as an adult. It's very multicultural so people don't make an effort to meet people outside of their circle. It got worse after the pandemic. If I could, as a black woman, I would move to Mexico but I can't afford to support myself there. My profession keeps me here in Canada, well-off financially, but lonely.

SUPPORT VISA REJECTION. WHY DON'T YOU SHARE THE NEWS WHERE 20000 STUDENTS IN CANADA HAVE NOT ATTENDED A SINGLE CLASS THEY ENROLLED FOR?

It is not about being under UN sanctions or under military rule. Many Indian visa applications (especially for student visas) are supported by fake documents. Many try to emigrate by hook or by crook especially to the US or Canada via other countries. And the less said about the behaviour of Indian tourists abroad the better. Dishonesty, cheating and so on may be a way of life in India but other countries still value decency and civic sense.

Canada's people don't support on social media only

The problem IMHO is that the government stopped investing in the people. Both Liberals and Conservatives support business against the people. This is ruining Canada.

As an Indian living in India, the immigration policies of Canada are seriously concerning, it’s not attracting the best of the bunch and it’s fostering Anti-National sentiments among communities that are usually very patriotic in India… there is no Khalistan movement in Punjab, they are causing unrest in Canada for their agenda and the Canadian PM is all too happy to support them. So much so that they have successfully strained the international relations between India and Canada.

Far too little, far too late. For decades Canada will reap the results of loser immigration philosophy - intentional damage since 2015. Blame all those who voted for and supported this.

Canadians must support Canada’s current immigration policy. Who doesn’t want a constant stream of hilarious memes and videos?

Milking international students has been a global fraud in Canada for a long time. Old Canadians who immigrated a long time before think that it s' a business ... let's do it to provide the benefits to retirees from taxes received out of this business.\nYou will find thousands of new Canadians working in Middleest to support their families in Canada.

Trudeau has destroyed Canada in 8 short years. I am born and raised here. I’m 58 years old and am sad when I see the Canada now. \nIn a just world Trudeau and Singh should be jailed for the destruction. Singh supported the POS.

Where are the destination countries that those Canada immigrants moved to? You did not tell the whole story. The audience may think that those people are leaving Canada to US. \n\n1. Among five eyes countries, Canada is the easiest country for people to migrate to. For example Australia skill migrant program does not accept the flight attendant as the required talent. There is very slim chance that the flight attendant can get the PR through the skill migrant program in Australia. Canada is now getting into the trouble similar to the sub-prime crisis in US 15 years ago: too many people who are not the qualified immigrants arrived to Canada in past 2 years. They are leaving because the minimal hourly wages cannot support their living in the big cities like Toronto and Vancouver. \n2. High income tax ? In UK the top tax bucket is well over 40%. In Australia you need to pay 45% income tax plus 2% medical Levy surcharge\n3. High cost of living? I think the cost of living in London of UK and Sydney of Australia are also exceptionally high. The cost of living affordability depends on the income of the migrants. Low income working class will feel the cost of living and housing pressure. But this applies to all countries, including SF of US, Toronto of Canada, Sydney of Australia, London of UK\n4. Rise in crime: I do not understand this logic as the migrants left Canada to US - the city of LA, New York, Seattle and Chicago are far worse than in Canada \n5. Limited Career opportunities: the only country that has better career opportunities is US. What are the main reasons for those who are not migrating to US?\n\nIn summary, all the above points are not the main reasons. The main reason is the liberal government. Canada had taken a large number of wrong low end migrants in wrong time. When the economic downturn turn comes these are the most vulnerable group of people that should leave Canada.\n\nMany Canadian found that they resolved some of the problems by relocating from city to city ie moved from Vancouver to Calgary. Cheaper house price and cost of living, lower crime rate,etc

Tell the truth… our government pays them support and housing upon arrival and employers are given wage subsidy for hiring immigrants!! No temporary visa allowed period! Come in the right way like many others before them and be vetted. Canada is being invaded and we are losing our jobs and housing,and not to forget our customs. We as Canadians are fed up!!

If 30,000 people have vanished into the backstreet’s of Canada then expect a major increase in crime. They will have to support themselves somehow. I wish the liberals would start answering questions and show some spine and accountability.

yeah we have a good infrastructure and world recognized education... if u want to support any average institute in Canada better to do it in your country or increase ur merit to got into IIT's IIM's or NLU's
