I am Canadian and everyone who use to support America is now buying Canadian. Canada helped kill Palestinians and Lebanese folks because of the US. Maybe this is our karma

Fear mongering at its finest.. why throw the word war into this.. they dont want the smoke.. i think we should trade citizens.. leftist to canada far right in america.. lets see which on prevails

All the celebrities, millionaires, billionaires, and smart, talented people in America, please move to Canada or Europe. You are most welcome here.

Perhaps America's president should look at the programs Canada implements and make American a great place to live again, and the American people would not be enticed to take Fentanyl to get through the miserable lives some have to deal with on a daily basis!

Ok democrats!! \n\nDemocrats: we love canada, he is patriotic\n\nRepublican: Yeah!! No worries America can supply our own!! We will find another source!! So cute!! \n\nCry Democrats Cry!! Until no tears left in your eyes!! kamala LOST!! Deal with it!! Your Gay Canadian Prime Minister Sucks

All Governor Trudeau talking about a non-existent trade War these are just tariffs and in any way shape and form a war? Canada's military is so underfunded by Governor Trudeau Canada would almost certainly lose any conflict at ever thought with America or any tier one adversary, my suggestion Mr Trudeau you need to exit stage left and make room for somebody who has the courage to deal with the Tangerine bird

To all our dear friends in Canada, Mexico and America, I'm so sorry you have to go through this because of that orange lunatic in the White House. Please keep fighting. Europe stands with you! From a worried Belgian friend... ❤

America has No Freinds,America has Interests.\nDon't back down Canada.

Courageous Canadians, courageous Canadian parliament compare that with the fully cowardly congress..on both sides. If the US congress has at least one testicle of courage Trump would be in jail by now. Canada is now the land of the free and the brave. America, show me that you are not the cowards your congress and courts are!

To our European friends, be careful. American hostility looks bad right now. But the bigger danger is Russia disinformation. America is hostile to Canada and Europe because Putin is using disinformation to radicalize the citizens of democratic countries. America has fallen victim and is divided today. Don't let Russia do the same thing to you. I am already noticing European also becoming radicalized slowly. Russian disinformation must stop now or Europe will fall apart the very same way. The very first step is to learn how Russian disinformation works, including Russian bots and trolls. And use social media less.

Picking fights with allies. America & Canada are first cousins. This is insane. Its absolutely insane.

I am sickened by the actions of my fellow Americans. This is what the half of America that voted for this deserves but the rest of us will also suffer for their willful ignorance. Good on Canada, Mexico, China, and every other country that values their people over the pockets of billionaires. Nasty, nasty work by the US.

This is trumps america and a lot of Americans stand with Canada

Im not buying any more american as far as it’s possible. I stand with Canada against Trumps ProRussia America. Greetings from Norway.

Why is it that everyone outside of America has an expectation on how we should be that benefits them. This can has been kicked down the road for multiple decades. The waste, fraud, and abuse we are uncovering in the government. The situation with NATO and Ukraine and no one can fix their problems or issues without the US. We have aggressive homelessness, poverty, poor education system, high taxes, and a government that in the past has done nothing but pimp our tax dollars out just for kickbacks. Everyone is pissing and moaning about our domestic problems while also having an extremely high bar on the international stage. I have never received aid from the UN, never receive money from other countries, nor assistance. Is no one in America tired of this? Here we are talking about Bourbon tax….lol. A great reset needs to happen and though I do not like it, it is happening and I am here for it. BTW I love Canada and Mexico and believe at best that if we pull out of NATO I would still hope we can have an Americas/Mexico treaty.

Please, make America part of Canada.

OH, NOW THE GOVERNOR OF CANADA HAS A LOT TO SAY. HOW ABOUT STARTING OFF WITH? I KNOW WE 0 300 MILLION DOLLARS EVERY YEAR TO AMERICA. LET'S START TRYING TO PAY THAT BACK AND GET BACK ON THE RIGHT TARIFF ROAD... THAT'S THE MOST I'VE HEARD THIS MAN TALK, OTHERWISE HE'S ALWAYS TALKING BLAH, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.TYPICAL LIBERAL

Looks like Canada’s stepping up to teach America how to be great again!

I support Canada from America. Please do everthing to hurt Trump and Elon Musk. I support 100% tariffs on Elon and his companies. Please world make them pay.

Don't worry about America just look after Canada trump is not trustworthy

Canada says America is dumb, so let us hear the reaction from America.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL NOT TAKE NO INSULT TO THE PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP IN ANY WAY OR FORM WITHOUT YOU ALL PAY FULL CONSEQUENCES FOR YOUR COMMENTS. FROM CANADA. AND WE DONT NEED TO COMMENTS OF SUPPORT IN ANY WAY OF FORM FROM NA OTHER COUNTRIES POLITICOS OR PRESIDENTES OR ANY LEADER . WE SUPPORT ARE PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP PERIOD. FK YOUR SUPPORT AND COMMENTS OR ADVICE .MR. CANADA LEADERS.

Canada, I will address you now in words that you understand better than anyone.\n\nSorry!\n\n\nSincerely, \n\nNon-MAGA America

United States of America did not pick trade war with CANADA. The president did

If I believed there was a God, I'd invoke his blessing against the courageous, stable government and people of the great nation of Canada. Wake up America. You're being played.

The united states made a huge mistake not stopping trump and backstabbing ukraine and europe - the united states will now feel a huuuuge economical hit as well as a pyhsical one as the world including canada, mexico, uk, europe, south korea, japan and all the free countries will not work with, trade with or ever trust the USA ever again. Massive own goal America.. shame on you. FK TRUMP and FK PUTIN.

Why is everyone bashing President Trump and his administration? If every nation has a free choice how many would choose alliance with Canada over Russia? President Trump has promised to Make America Great Again and that is excactly what he is doing ??

Satanic Evil Trump not a republican he stole this party like he stole the election you know that he's a convicted felon , he's a child molester with Jeffrey Epstein , the man that love grabbing women by the p---- , cult leader using religious to get these corrupted religious mega follower's to back him up and Putin's little puppet , humiliating and degrading our friend from Ukraine this list goes on with this American Traitor no more talking take our business to Europe . The America Justice system and Politicians represent the people, who make decisions have turn their backs on us and even their own people in the USA push to have Elon Musk Canadian birth right remove from our great country Canada . Elon not worthy to be even call a Canadian . Oh no we can't forget dear old JD Vance who speaks against gay right and he worn little girl clothes in high school and still today wear makeup around his eyes. And the mega Christian followers , call them leaders sent by God they better start reading their holy bible cause it all written in the holy book..

Wow that's deep thanks Canada ?? we love you always in America ??

Terrible how our Country America treating Canada and Mexico always been there from disasters to military in past wars. Stand up everyone there no winners! Cost of living, loss jobs and small businesses gone. But the rich will be fine but we are the ones that suffer. So messed up.

Sounds like Canada ?? going to struggle bad in this trade war! America ?? first !

Canada cannot fight America at all they are useless

From Florida, here. Stay strong, Canada! Teach the orange fellon a lesson. I fully embrace whatever hardships in America come about to get this man out of office

Europe embraces You, Canada. We thank you for not giving in to the orange fascist and the South African oligark. I just hope America isn't totally lost in a mix of right wing extremism and Russian influence, so USA still can be salvaged, when Trump is thrown out of The White House. God bless us all.

Trudeau doesn't stand for Canada just like Trump doesn't help America

Sir, we all would rather be in Canada than America currently. The buffoons in charge were not chosen by like minded folks like you❤

American here, I support Canada, America elected a stupid arrogant fool.

I applaud you, Canada, and I am ashamed and embarrassed to say I live in America.

Aaron on Tic Tok, CANADA IS NOW Charging America ELECTRIC BILL 25% HIGHER ELECTRIC BILL. 47 MELINA AND IVANKA WILL PAY higher ELECTRIC BILL TO CANADA. TONIGHT 47 WILL SAY AMERICA LOOKING GREAT AGAIN. LOW INCOME STATES RED STATES ARE YELLING BS..FENT IS MADE IN ONE COUNTRY. CHINA CRICKETS. It comes Across there borders. STOP IT THERE.???.

I'm an American, and I'm with you, Canada!!! I realize Canada is America.

Woke Leftist totalitarian lying Trudeau. America does not care your treats! Just try to make Canada great again and resign!! ?

Americans dont be surprised if your new bestie will be a dictator in the name of Putin! Please Canada no more massive discount on oil for America.

Claiming Canada is a single US State is unjust, as far I'm concerned. All the provinces get recognition, or America can forget the whole idea.

As for “America’s presumptive 51st State” in the intro, as a Canadian, please don’t normalise talking about us as the 51st State, even in jest. We are a sovereign nation, and after seeing the utter disrespect with which Trump and Vance treated President Zelenskyy recently, we have to keep our elbows up ! Otherwise, solid economic analysis of the current situation here in Canada. Merci !

Don’t worry! Canada is going to continue on the path it’s on to stick it to America! 10x the number of migrants! “Post-nationalism” (aka “we’re not America”). \n\nCanada is on track to either be an Indian separatist movement haven or an Indian exurb.

All joking aside, Canada has been able to form a symbiotic relationship of mutual benefit with the United States since even before NAFTA 1. But.......... right now it is almost like a 51st state and I do not mean that in a joking way. US states are always competing with each other, but what prevents things like, oh say the American Civil war from happening is the Federal apparatus keeps them in line for the good of the empire as a whole. \n\n If Canada is like a 51st state, then it is competing with the other 50 states in a way that all 50 of them are going to get upset about. So either the states complain, or you treat Canada as an economic competitor. Mexico being behind the United States and Canada is what makes it a good candidate for a symbiotic relationship. For all its problems, Mexico has a Christian population (with some indigenous traits) that goes well with America. Their nations different economic status means we can support them and they can support us doing different things for countries of different development stages.\n\nCanada being so similar to the United States will want that as well and will never outbid the United States. Again this is seen as a hostile economic competitor. \n\nIts not Canada or Americas fault. After 2007 and the lies about fanny and Freddie, leman bros, mortgage backed security's, and a cash shortage that was not real. How was it real if the offshore exchanges did nothing? 2007 was not financial in origin it was our global monetary system seizing up. To say Wall Street greed and MBSs did it would be like saying a single drop of cement turned the ocean to cement.\n\nBut something did. Something turned the market from liquid to concrete, it happened in France decades before......\nFinancially packaged items could no longer be priced or traded.

Theres nothing presumptive about Canada being the US' 51st state. A lot of Canadian's would rather burn everything to the ground than be American, and a lot of others still would rather flee to Europe than be trapped in Trump's America

51st. State????❤Trump,make canada the great 51st. Canada is not free or affordable and won't ever be until they join the greatest country in the world, AMERICA. ?

This is why Trump wants Canada. To save Canada from itself. In year 2125 The entire American continent will be the New States of the Americas From Canada to Argentina. A strong transcontinental power Rivalling the Eurasian Union.

Canadians are educated in school about the states. We learn American history. America is taught nothing about Canada.
