Can America just become Canada’s next territory?

We ARE with you Canada. We are and will fight against the Trump administrations criminal activities.

Washington state stands with Canada!

Tarrifs start but there has been a movement in Canada for the past months. American produce is rotting in the grocery stores.

Make that make sense... Okay put your money where your mouth is... You don't want to help Russia make Canada the 51st state. Anything else is lip service

Canada should be an American state period . One big family

Dear Justin, 75 million Americans voted against Donald Trump in the recent election. We appreciate your speaking directly to us today and in recent speeches you have given. We know what a good ally you have been to the US and we also know your primary concern is to Canadian citizens. While many of us have done what we could do and we also know the current trade arrangement was negotiated with you by Donald Trump in his previous term which leaves many of us scratching our heads. For my part it deeply saddens me that this has happened and all we ask or all that I ask is that you remember those of us who did not vote for this. Slightly less than half of the country. When this is over, and it will end one day we look forward to breaking bread with Canada again.

As a canadian, i will stand with Canada. However, Trudeau is not my PM. Our country would have been fiscally armored in this situation, were it not for his poor leadership. Telling us it will hurt! All while raising taxes and continuing to print money. Pierre for PM!

I am an American but I stand by Canada do you say I'm a traitor? no the traitor is living in the White House, now put that in your pipe and smoke it ?

There are many Americans who are angered by this horrible act and are repulsed by this and our country doing the bidding of Russia. It makes me sick! We love Canada and many many of us voted for Kamala not this?

Canada will sink !!!!

So, since January illegal flow of drugs from Canada to USA dropped 97%. So my question is, why it didn't happen until President Trump acted? Yes, exactly. President Trump is the best.

Dear Prime Minister Trudeau, Thank you for speaking to the American public so kindly & articulately! Please let some of our states become provinces or territories of Canada. Please let us know the forms to fill out.... Hawaii must look pretty great to you all...?! If Donald can rename the Gulf of Mexico, surely we can adjust some border lines....?

To Canada: Europe is waiting to do business with you, with wide open arms.

Yet the drugs flow in from the northern borders and who knows what else. So this is why the northern borders stays affected by leadership not supporting to stop all that crime that originates from Canada. And the recent statements made by this dude that their doing something about the war on drugs should have started decades ago DECADES AGO…. all of sudden theres alleged action to combat evil

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 ??‍♀️

This guys strong suit is lying. You and only you, waged a trade war, Turdeau. He won't tighten up the border because he profits from the drugs that are smuggled. He's all about getting people on drugs. He's the one who has fueled the Fentanyl problem in Canada. Don't be fooled by this liar.

Are there any independent critical thinkers left out there that don't have faith in political sides?but instead live in reality? this guy has absolutely trashed Canada - and all anyone here can do is worship his manipulation? man - the brainwashing is strong stuff indeed... the people of the USA are just too easily directed- sad.

So stupid Trump just ended relationships with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and the whole of Europe. Brilliant.

So many NPC's in the comments. Justin is the worst prime Minister in Canada's history. He is weak, pathetic and a globalist puppet. The U.S. has all the leverage. Trump is doing a great job for Americans. Only the ones demoralized by fake news propaganda don't like it.

Won’t the tariffs go away if Canada secures their southern border?

I’m an American, but I am not feeling very safe in my own country. I do not like what is going on. I feel very helpless and concerned about what the future holds. I am with Canada, and Ukraine. I am embarrassed and ashamed of our government and what is happening.

Canada Pm - I thought you were done?

Well said. I love the USA, I have relatives who live there and in all the years of a beautiful relationship with the people of America I have never seen this situation. Mr. Trump you seem to want to conquer and divide relationships at any cost, even with people who care about you. You sabotage yourself and those who are loyal to you. I'm not sure if you understand the implications of your decisions. But I will say respectfully, there are no winners in a trade war, nor is it you that has the final say on the worlds outcome. This is God's world not yours and not ours. I'm really disappointed to see American people and Canadians hurting because of whatever the point of all of this means. But Canada is strong and we will stand up for our country. The American people are strong and they were strong before you became the President. Working together, we can take care of each other for our families and our country.

As a Michigander, and an American that honors our Constitution and the Rule of Law, I am in total agreement with Canada's actions.

He doesn’t read from the paper! He knows what he’s saying! Stand with Canada, Ukraine and Europe!

These tariffs have nothing to do with Fentanyl. Fentanyl is the excuse needed to apply tariffs which otherwise would be illegal. Canada needs to start trading more with other countries. The USA is not a reliable trade partner when one man can completely FK the system.

What a speech!❤❤❤\nSo proud of our handsome, intelligent Mr. Trudeau!\nThank everyone who supports Canada, thank you for all comments!\nDear American neighbours we love you, but we love and stand united for our beloved Canada??????

Aloha Prime Minister, Trudeau, and Canadiens, the majority in this country can’t stand the current administration in our embarrassed, concerned, and want him out along with every MAGA moron selling this country out! I am so angry and disgusted! I apologize for our horrific leadership and I hope one day the people who are responsible for what is happening will be charged with sedition and espionage! I’ve had it. I stand with Ukraine Canada and the same citizens of this country who despise everything this current administration has done since they took office! You people who believe that Trump is this wonderful person and he’s doing wonderful things for America read a fucking history book!

USA citizens stands by Canada ?? ~ impeach Trump

❤GOD BLESS CANADA ?? AND THE PEOPLE ❤

as a canadian i just want to thank all the americans who support canada. thank you so much <3

American here. I stand with Canada ?? and Ukraine ??. I wish 8 could leave this nightmare. I wish I could move my children out of this country.

uk will trade with canada no problem and ukraine \nfrom a scot cant see the canadians backing down \nMinister Justin Trudea what a leader first time i have ever listened closely to this guy top man\nam sure the people in america in shock what is happening with their country

Thank you Canada, the US is too weak to take care of the MAGA problem we have. Hope Mexico sticks it to him too

I'm a 71 yr old woman. I'm crying! To listen to a leader who is coherent and articulate is foreign as of late. I haven't slept a full night since he came into office. I'm ashamed of the people in the country that are disgusting brainwashed maganuts. My daughter in law & her family are from Montreal. We stand with Canada!! You should impose a 30% counter tariff! America is dying because of that orange nazi & his group of nazi clowns. God bless Canada, Ukraine, Israel & may He save America!!?

I voted for this. The economic fear mongering isn’t gonna work. Trump brought in 1.7 trillion dollars investment in 40 days. How much has Trudeau brought into Canada.

I'm an American. I stand with you, Canada, do not back down to this egotistical buffoon we have as president.

THANK GOD FOR CANADA FOR A SOUND MIND AND A GOOD HEART ??? DEMOCRACY THE FREE WORLD COME ON THE BIG THREE GERMANY FRANCE ENGLAND THE SO CALLED UNITED STATES AMERICA NO LONGER EXISTS

Trump has a small pp. I stand with Canada.

Trudeau can return the US aid sent to them annually for $350 Billion. The UK should be responsible for aid to Canada, not the United States. Trudeau doesn’t appreciate our aid.

Imagine Canada thinking they are the tough guys lol

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.

Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine. Trump stands with Putin.

I thought Fidel Castro Jr was kicked out of Canada? Globalists seem to be determined to start WW3.

He is Canada's Gavin Newsom, he is lying when his lips are moving.

So proud of Canada and its citizens! Proud to be Canadian ❤️?

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 ???
