America has always been our neighbouring country, and now Trump is trying to destroy This How sad this action from Trump Is...?

I just don't stand with Canada. I stand with any country he's bullying. Yes, it's true that countries should pay their fair share of things, but this knucklehead is going over the top... letting an immigrant Elaine musk (who voted for him)take American jobs from the people who voted trump in (how you like him now) and align our country with one of satan's best men vladimir POOTIN ... I'd like to be at the gates of heaven when trump and pootin arrive & get turned away

It’s not Americans, its a few people who are f**king up our country. Elon and Trump needs to go

Trump thinks the rich come first, countries come second, people come last.

Americans, read the comments and wake the f up. Trump is destroying your country and your country alone. USA is easier replaced than you think.\nEU signed free trade agreement with India for example, a country of 1.5 billion people.\nWake up!

The Executive Branch of the United States is occupied by the biggest f*ing elites on the entire planet, Putin's pet kleptocrat Trump, his foreign oligarch boyfriend Elon and a clown show of a cabinet. The most incompetent US administration of all time. Thanks Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland. Lindsay Graham. Josh Hawley. Chuck Grassley. Canadian born Ted Cruz, who doesn't even defend his wife, much less the country. Leadership like that does not belong in NATO, it's what NATO was meant to protect us, Canada and the United States, from.

If you dont start a fair trade wich is all trump is aking your country has a bn out 3months untill your economy cslaps

you know we americans are pathetic. throw some unwarranted tariffs against canada and it bonds all Canadians together ready to fight. take a foreign born, unelected billionaire who takes a chainsaw to our government after a reactionary think tank wrote a document saying they were going to destroy our government an create an autocracy--- a think tank composed of people who are now in the trump administration----and now we are aligning with Putin and we americans do nothing. this is sad. we are losing our country

Remember how MAGA spoke about other countries- s-hole countries and floating garbage? Trumps America is nasty hateful and vile. He is a sick old man

How is it possible that Americans can't see that the only countries in the WORLD who approve of a single of trump's choices are Hungary, turkey and Russia. Surely that's not the company you want to keep?

It seems sad that it took an action such as the one the US government had to do, to make Canada realize that we should work together as provinces and as people. Canada knew very well that our big brother in the south has been fiscally hurting since years and had been racking up enormous government, corporate and private citizen debt. If this were to continue it would pull down every single country in the world. Perhaps if the US is becoming fiscally responsible, truly eliminate fraudulent and unnecessary spending and refocus on their local economy (just like China has been doing in the last years) the rest of the world and even Canada can finally focus on their strength and local markets. After all, don't we all miss our local stores, local artisans, vibrant neighborhoods with diverse businesses and a pride in having made in our own country? May I say that this Trump era will give the whole planet a new perspective for changing our ways, reliance on others and taking the easy and greedy road!

It's really important that Canada and the rest of the world understand only a slight majority supports Queen Trump and King Musk there's a huge chunk of the country a little less than half that does not agree nor support that imbecile

Sadly Trump is only going to continue to act like an ignorant bully and a child. Im sorry that this country has come to this.\nI absolutely cant stand Trump the chump. Trump the chump Trump the Chump!

Trump has a funny way of doubling down on bad decisions rather than admitting he might have screwed up. So no matter what the cost to the public he will run the country off a cliff Before he changes course.

Trump never aligned with Putin. This is grossly spoken. Trudeau is mad about tariffs. We get charged tariffs by so many countries but suddenly we are the bad guys? Get real.

Seems like Trump is trying to ruin the country.

Trump is an idiot he is getting the U.S tariffed by three countries

I am from Germany, and I see Canada as an ally. Trump is the devil in person, and I think all other free countries should stand together now. Only together we can stand against, Trump. Trump thinks the world is in the 1800 hundreds, and It's ok to attack allies and friends.

Stand up to trump every country should what is trumps problem attacking his allies im from UK

Près Trump must think more than twice bcos it is no way alright for his country men nor the world.

This will only push for every citizen of every country to buy in-house made goods. I am happy about Trump and each political imposter's from other countries representing their people that this has finally begun. Watch your domestic businesses thrive.

I am a U.S. citizen, almost 66 years old. For the second time in my life, I am **ashamed** of my President. Trump is causing damage that will take literally DECADES to repair. Yet again, another country's leader shows his sound, prudent, measured, intelligent and **honorable** character - in such stark contrast to ours.

I am a American but I do not support Trump in anyway.. He is a idiot and should be thrown out off office immediately... I am sorry to Ukraine and all countries being affected by this pathetic idiot. My heart goes out to you all and I encourage you to hit back hard.

The rest of the world sees what Trump is doing, and yes he is playing a dangerous game with other countries, Canadians will not be bullied?

You have the right to do this Prime Minister. We will suffer because of TRUMP and not because of you. I am so sorry my bullshit country has done this. You move is NEEDED.

Trump’s thirst of power is destroying this beautiful country, its people, its friendship with other countries. Is there a way Trump can get fired? He is useless and stupid.

I wish we had a smart, sane leader like this. Trump has made our country look stupid.

Up till now Canada has been the US’s biggest export destination. This BS by Trump will cost your country jobs, not to mention inflation. Time for an intervention!

Do you people even have a clue on how to negotiate or do you accept the first offer that you receive at a car dealership? Stop judging Trump because you're using Biden, Obama, and Clinton as barometers and America was taken advantage of during those administrations. As far as tariffs are concerned, Canada and Mexico have committed troops at their border since Trump initiated tariffs. Canada and Mexico are cutting down the flow of fentanyl into our country since Trump initiated tariffs. Trudeau is talking tough because he came off as weak the last time Trump scolded him. Trudeau is scheduled to meet with Trump in a few days. Why is that? Canada will meet Trump's demands on fentanyl and tariffs; and America will profit in the short and long term. Stop believing the fake news who does nothing but create fake chaos no matter what Trump does. These tariffs do not affect our country in any way over the short term. The only reason that the markets are tumbling is because the fake news wants to create panic when there is none. Same thing with Zelensky. You idiots are rooting for a war to continue because Trump is mean. Zelensky is ready to work for peace because the mean guy yelled at him. Wake up idiots! We need strong leaders not people like Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and Sanders who only care about their own interests. You'll find out soon enough who's making money off the Ukraine War.

Canada doesn't even have an ounce of gold. Keep talking. Let's face it. Canada is a non-country. The fact that Trump asked them to be the 51st state shows that. He wouldn't do that do Japan.

As an American, I am disappointed in our country for yet again voting for Trump. I mourn that our country defunded education which lead to this mess.

Trump is a Russian mole and a traitor to the United States ?? he is trying to destroy our country

Trump is just doing what Putin wants him to. The plan is to ally with the bad guys. Our govt will be broken and empty, except the military, and Putin will come in and take over and use our military to takeover other countries. I know that sounds like a bad movie but nothing shocks me anymore and I can’t think of any other reason for America to be pissing off our allies - the good guys. I was in Canada over the weekend and I really didn’t want to come back. ?

Donald Trump is an accomplice of a war criminal. Russia has kidnapped 70,000 Ukrainian children. Russia invaded a sovereign country. This is the ultimate shame for the USA. I would never have thought that one day. Shame on America.

I'm from America and I'm with Canada. Trump has got to be stopped along with the whole Republican party. They are the biggest threat to our country, security and democracy. It's just to bad nobody has the balls to just go in and take them out. The judicial system in this country is a joke. So we have to figure out other ways. They fixed the election and convinced 30M to follow their agenda. I'm ? with Canada.. America is disgraceful because of the traitors running it.

What a contrast between a real leader (Trudeau) and a crass demagogue (The First Felon). It took this moron 5 weeks to destroy 160 years of good relations. Its a disaster for both countries. Trump is a spoiled bully who has never had to suffer the consequences of his actions. We will suffer for him.

It all makes sense if one realizes that trump is a russian asset by the name Krasnov. \nPrime Minister Trudeau, I hold no ill will against you, your beautiful country or country men/women. We, the reasonable Americans, understand that you must do what you have to.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk has the whole world by their balls. As much as Donald Trump is wrong about South Africa but as for protecting USA, he is doing what a good leader should do to protect his country and his people. Fentanyl is destroying America. Don't need to be there to know. Just search Philadelphia Streets

I don't think Trump or his followers have the language skills or attention span to understand this.\nThe rest of the Western countries on the other hand want us all to unite and work together. Ignoring the USA and it's implosion. Join the EU guys it'll be fantastic for both of us

As someone who was born in the U.S. I can’t stand what this country has turned into. It’s despicable and disgusting. I will not stand for the national anthem and I encourage any other American to do so. I hope Canada takes trump down. Thank you Canada for being a great country and for standing up to bullies. Go Canada ??

Why not just do what benefits your country? You whine as you know what Trump is doing will hurt your country but benefits US.

I know why the Canadians are so upset with us and I understand it, I hate it, these are completely backward moves. This is about trump consolidating control of our country.

American supporters of Donald Trump. Stop, look, and listen to what you’re hearing here today. Are all the world leaders and people across the world wrong? What makes any of you think that Trump is right? Are you really willing to continue to stand with that man as he dismantles all relationships with allies and all fellow human beings who stand for democracy? Look at what he’s already been allowing Musk to do so far at this point in this country. The time has come to truly ask yourselves what you stand for and make the right choice

As an American who actually cares about my country and understands what’s been going on and not letting the media lead me around by my emotions, I stand with Trump.

GOOD FOR YOU CANADA!! I love your country!!! Great people. Don’t back down to the dumbest no good trump and his sissies.

This is amazing. This prime minster talks as if Canada did nothing wrong and US decided to bully them for no reason. If everything's fine and dandy, we wouldn't have done this. Trump did what he did because of \n\n1. Drug trafficking from north + illegal emigrants\n2. Unfair trade deficit in times when our national debt is unsustainably high. \n\nWhy so high? Because we've been giving Canada SURPLUS for decades. Can't do that no more because we have to save our country now. Don't mischaracterize this move, fools.

As a Canadian I have to say that Trudeau is the worst Prime Minister in Canadian history! He destroyed our country and economy. He doesn't respect Trump and Canadian people. That's why we are in this mess!

So sad what's happening in this country right now. I'm an American and did not vote for trump and I'm with Ukraine and Canada.
