This is a down right disgrace. I don't know why anyone vote for that man because he is doing more harm than good. A dozen of eggs are $9.00, that's more than a gallon of milk. That man is trying to destroy our country. God Almighty is going to step in real soon. God bless this country and he is trying to mess it up.

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

CNN is so full of shit they can’t even talk the facts of Donald Trump getting himself in this shit. Pink suit mama Paula is stuttering all over herself. The first thing she says is how Trudeau spoke of how it’s going to be hard on Canada and then stuttered about it being hard for Americans. But she FAILED to mention that Canada has vowed to be there and make amends for its citizens unlike America whose government has hung its citizens out to dry. CNN also failed to mention ton that Trump signed the current trade agreement when he was president for his first term. Never thought I would see the day CNN would skirt the issue trying their damndest not to use the words the rest of the world is saying and that’s “What the fuck Donald?” Shame on you CNN. You’re the reason the right information isn’t being put out there.

People tried ro warn you about the Cheerio in the white house..no bisness experience only closures..we americans will suffer for not electing correctly..canada were sorry we voted and allowed a fool run this country...

Donald J. Trump is the best President EVER! I love President Trump. Thanks God for Trump. As for Ukraine, that shouldn't even have been a priority for America. Ukraine should have nurtured better relations with all its neighbors, and especially with Russia, and not try to drag the world into a needless WW3. Btw, why is Trudeau still in offoce? His dad was a proud communist. Just like his dad, Trudeau has communistic tendencies.

Come on the rest of the decent world we can make a stand against the USA. Don’t buy Tesla. Don’t buy Ford. Don’t buy Nike. Don’t buy Apple. Buy Samsung, Adidas. French & German cars. Buy beers & wine from many countries & not the USA. Then with finances try to avoid American banks & credit card companies & shares. Even at a basic level we can all make a difference. Our governments all need to make a difference & trade more with each other rather than the USA it will be tough & take a while but we can break away from this hideous nation & need to do so asap.

Trump is easing pressure on Russia so he can try to get elected forever. The jackass wants to be a dictator surrounded by oligarchs

This fucking sucks. Im trying to build a small cabin so I'm not homeless and now lumber prices are super taxed for no reason. They just want to rip apart our forests and parks at home while making everything more expensive.

It’s obvious to anyone who even processes and ounces of smarts. He’s doing to America what he did to his casinos. He’s trying to shuffle America’s piggy bank out the back door with his starved friend Fee-Lon crotch musk.

I believe Americans must stop this fool. In my opinion he is desperately trying to destroy what took 80 years to make. He is trying to turn friends into enemies, he is trying to change America from democracy into dictatorship.\nThis is very sad. \nI hope Americans will not allow one imbecile and bunch of crazies to change your great country into land of unrest and division.\nYou must stop your president from dismantling your country.\nJust my opinion ?

He tried to address Donald Trump man to man But that does now work for Trump You have to get down on the ground and grovel And lick his boots To even get Trump To acknowledge somebody because Trump thinks he's God

Great job Justin. Sorry about trump. We sensible sane tried to stop it.

And so it begins... what I've tried telling lots of people that Trump will do if made President of the United States. I hope those who voted him in are satisfied with their decision because the beast has been unleashed.

Can we have the Canadian President instead of ours? Both Canada and Mexico responds to the requests and demonstrate they are trying to be our allies and for some reason we still proceed into a trade war. I think there's an aspect of the tariffs where it's a tax that's not called a tax, where there will be reductions in taxes for the wealthy and then these tariffs are added taxes for the general population.

CNN should do their research on this clown before they try to make him look like a hero. But then again what do expect a leftist news network supporting a leftist dictator.

Working Canadians support Trump. All the loud mouths that take 25 years to pay off their mortgage talking shit about a man thats made it big several times hahaha the same uneducated liberal followers that are agreeing with the prime minister that ruined Canada and helped fund the killing in both Ukraine and Palestine. Pathetic! Clown trying to pin Trumps tarifs that just started today for the mess hes caused..no wonder 80% of Canadians are embarrassed but the comments here show the other 20%

It seems like Trump is trying to destroy the US for Putin \nCanada many Citizens in the EU stand with you and boycott American goods! There is even an Danish APP made that helps NOT to choose goods from America, when we shop in EU. \nThe only thing Trump understands is the power of money

DT is isolating us from our friends and allies while raising prices on everything. Hes a russian asset, who has paired with an american oligarchy to strip our rights and our government. I heard Kamala is running in 2028. It cant come fast enough. I feel so bad having her come in and try to clean up the mess DT is making and made. WE'RE THE BAD PEOPLE NOW!?

HOLD UP DONT THEY HAVE TARIFFS ON US ALREADY, TRUMPS IS ONLY DOING WHAT NO OTHER LEADER WOULDNT AS LONG AS THEY WERE GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF! TRUMP DONT NEED ANYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO AMERICA BC HE PUTS US FIRST, HES TIRED OF US BEING DONE SHITTY AND THEN THEY WANNA GET UPSET WHEN HE PUTS ON THEM! CANADA TRUDEAU IS NOT VERY SMART, YALL NEED SOMEONE WHO PUTS HIS PPL FIRST BC HE ALREADY HAD 10% OF TARIFFS ON AMERICA AND THE OTHER COUNTRIES AS WELL SO HES TRYING TO GET PPL HERE TO BUILD OUR OWN FACTORIES OR THEY CAN COME WITH THERE BUSINESS AND ITS A WIN WIN BUT I UNDERSTAND Y TRUMP IS DOING THIS 100%

We've tried for decades and every country bleeds us, we aint taking no more cuts, half the world will collapse and the other half WILL fall in line, watch. Why you think their having a fit. They could just say ok, but they KNOW!!

Suddenly he want to fight drugs while for past years you legalize every possible drug i Canada. You should be ashamed of yourself Trudeau. When Trump wanted to put tarrifs on Canada you were gone to Portugal apart of making a deal with the guy. Now you cry like a little guy and blaming Trunp for everything while you wasnt even here to negotiate and you shut down Canadian government for your own partisan purpose and government does not exist right now in Canada just because you afraid of loosing election so you just trying to survive as a PM for as long as possible. Not trump but YOU destroyed Canada and its economy and making Canadians life harder and harder and spending our tax money all over the world

Liberals supported the attempted assassination of Trump. They have persecuted him in the courts and tried twice to impeach him. They've attacked his family, including his wife and son.\n\nLiberals have left the American border open to Illegals, Drugs and Human Trafficking that Americans pay for in housing, feeding, law enforcement and the fraudulent aid programs that finance them\n\nTrump is retaliating by uncovering and exposing all of it! If he's targeting the Commonwealth of Britain, known as Canada, then it could also be tied to the Epstein Investigations and release of names that is coming.\n\nThis is not over. More to come?

Bless you, Justin Trudeau. I’m glad you brought up the fact that the forces of private enterprise are trying to sneak into your country and turn everything private. Thank you for maintaining your cool and your ground.

The ChiComs, working with their Liberal minions, have made sure that any election will be rigged. Trump is trying to save Canada because he will send Troops into Canada to eject the Chinese military. He wants to do it with laws by getting Canada to join the USA. If that does not happen, he will use the military to do it, and Canada will be seen as the enemy of the USA allied with China. Trudeau admitted that without the welfare the USA has been providing to Canada, your economy will collapse. The Bank of Canada is bankrupt. The Canadian dollar is about to collapse. How will you feel next year when you need two dollars to buy what one dollar buys now? And plan on having fewer dollars to start with because your carbon tax, your sales tax, your income tax are all going up. WAY up. This is what happens when you decide to compete with a USA that is unshackled. The USA can produce more of our own oil than we can use, and we will sell the extra to YOUR foreign customers cheaper than you can produce it. Then you will be BEGGING for a pipeline. So Trump invited Canada to become a member of the most successful and powerful union of sovereign states in history, something that even our own territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, and all the others do not have. An invitation to be a bona fide member. Why do you think that is? Minerals? The USA has all the minerals we need. We have more oil, coal, and natural gas than any nation also, and we can produce and refine it cheaper than any country can. So Canada was invited to become a state so Trump could peacefully eject the ChiComs from North America. And did you accept? No. Did you say no thank you? No. You gave us the finger and said f&$k you to Trump. We hear you Canada. But now is not the time for pain, that comes later.

Justin Trudeau that thing in the WH is trying to get your citizens worked up against you just like putin did to our people with Biden

Can you adopt us? The US now has hostages ?Those of us who didn’t chose the orangutan and his gang are suffering and trying our hardest to fight back. We will keep fighting and uniting as much as possible ?? I deeply admire Canada and it’s people/ leadership.

How about we hear him in court has everyone forget what he's done and doing to Canada and using this turbulent time to try and save his sorry ass don't fall for it if he really cared we would have had a new PM long ago and sing would've got that pension and he's stepped down and closed parliament but still spending billions

Unfortunately Trump supporters won't listen to a word of this. Trump is just trying to weaken the Canadian economy so they're more willing to join us. Trying to strong arm every country surrounding the U.S. I want you to know that most Americans are against this shit.

Bro is literally trying to convince us that we won’t survive without Canadian fertilizer. It’s shit, it’s literally cow shit and we can get by just fine with American fertilizer ?

Wake up people trump is trying to start world war 3 and he has picked his alliance.

I'm ready to pull together with other Canadians! - Donald Trump is of course not a smart man but that would be dumb to say if you are a politician trying to contain a tarrif war. - (OMG, Wolf Blitzer grew up in Buffalo NY and spent summers at Crystal Beach. My oh my. He probably loved Irv Weinstein. Hope he liked watching Billy Van... if he watched CHCH TV back then.)

wtf is happening!!! They are trying to destroy us all!

Give me a break another loser that lost the election opening his punk mouth yeah try us you scumbags don’t you go get money from England

Trump is just trying to stay out of jail as he is a spoiled, entitled, POS, conman, man baby clown.

Ahhhhhh trying to weakest them to try and pull a putin and take them over! Hate did this!!!

Australian here. Great job Canada. Hope our PM will do same if Trump tries to tarrifs Australia. We have a lot of leverage against America if they try to bully us and I hope we will follow Canada's example ?

If he is selling himself to Americans and abusing President Trump. Why does he not accept the unification with the United States and become its 51st state? Then, he can try his luck to become President of the United States. That's good for the world as well, and good for Canadian people as well.

3rd generation American here, I too stand with Canada, the UK, Mexico and Europe, not with Russia, China or the communist worshiping president that I did NOT vote for. This is what happens when people are too chicken to vote for a female President who's already been Vice President and has more integrity in the tip of her pinky than trump & musk have combined. trump and his cabinet should be removed for treasonous acts, tried , and jailed. They've weakened the security of our country.

Trump is actually causing the stock market to fall and he and his crooks will wait until it comes down. He'll then try to correct the tarriff's back to zero so the stock market will go up but before Trump will buy, buy, buy to increase his own stock holdings

Somewhat right but not exactly right. According to Trump admin, Trump is actually trying to stop the circumvention of Chinese goods and Chinese drugs coming from Canada. Trudeau promised Trump to work on the drug issue, but I guess he did not if we are seeing the significant import tax on Canada now. And come on Trudeau, you dislike Trump and aren't exactly his friend. You talked back on him on many international stages. Anyways, I wish you two get along eventually and hope the same for US and Canada.

What a great thing to do Justin all of a sudden you care about the border ,you never did untill Mr Trump call you out on your weak government, you own this mess Justine ,you created this mess,and now on top you tried to look like tought guy ,just cuz your days as A prime Minister are just a few,,,woooa hight five though Guy,,,

Remind me what was broken here again?? What were we trying to fix with these tariffs?

What in this world did USA expect. trump the person that performed lewd acts on a microphone. 34 counts convicted felon. trump is trying to hurt America. Make there be no mistake about. Look how musk is taking a chainsaw against American Vets that work in the government. Then displayed an act with a chainsaw on national TV like it is a funny joke. trump is pitiful. A menace and a criminal. 6 times bankruptcy business fool. And there are so many other foul acts trump has taking against the American people. All I can say is seat back and feel the pain trump has and still will cause our country.

Trying to gain popularity back

everyone wants our money and gets angry when they dont get it, WE ARE IN DEBT. we are trying to solve the debt and not just continually give aid to be people that dont need it. Work for your own country and help your own country thrive, be independant like the canada you want to be. stop being a leech.

We are not insulating ourselves, we are building an open jail, next time we go on vacations, we won't be welcome anymore. what the people are doing?, trying to cover lies all the time?

I just think Trump is trying to isolate and destabilize the US so much that people rebel. Then he can declare a state of emergency and deploy the military and then he and his billionaire friends have full power in their perfect dictatorship. Take care of your freedom and democracy citizens of the US

I think it’s crazy how these countries are trying to shame America for looking out for itself. International gaslighting is wild.

IS THIS GUY STUPID? YOU HAVE TO BE CIVIL WITH EVERYONE..... CANT TRY AND STOP A WAR BY BEING HOSTILE. \n\nTHATS WHY CANADIANS ARE STUPID

Why you try make a senso to the man think about his pocket ,you think him care about people's on drogs? Him care Just about his pocket.
