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!!

CANADA?? NO PROBLEM YOUR COUNTRY HAVE MORE ? WORLD FRIEND S ALLIANCE .

Can I move to Canada? I want to live in a country with a government that acutally works.

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.

They have chosen to shut you down , they dont need canada, stop screwing your own people with your corruption. Stop immigration you have a whole country full of terrorist due to this golabalist no different than starmer. Lying bustard

Donald Trump is a curse on the United States. \n*_The worst curse to have befallen the country since its existence_*

Portuguese here, I stand with you Canada! Eloquent, civilised words from your PM.\nEurope, UK, Canada and every civilised country, we must unite, that's how we become stronger. Donald's isolationism is a step back in every way. Just take a look at North vs South Korea.

“THERE ARE NO WINNERS IN A TRADE WAR!” I would defect to Canada any day! But because of a decision I made as a young man, I can not leave this country. I’m imprisoned in this tragic mess. Kudos to you Trudeau. Stand up for yourselves…. Be the sleeping giant. Proud of you all!

mi request to the all Americans and Canadians to tariff trump Kiss or Kick. No need to frustrate , digest it. Buy your own country, s goods. Good Luck to Americans papa trump and his policies in the America and broad.

I am with you Canada. And very sorry our country voted this into our government. Can I come live with you all? Much respect for the Canadians. And I hope someday all this will change.

Trudeau sold out his whole country during Covid, now he’s acting concerned? SCUM!

I love Canada.. USA is 3rd country now.. friends with ruzzia..

I guess Trudeau what to FAFO like Zelensky did. You don't win against Trump. Trudeau is back off like they all do. His country doesn't want or need his stupid ass. Now he's going call OUR PRESIDENT Donald?? Wrong move.

Is it possible to clone Mr Trudeau and plant a clone in each country's administration please?\n\nSeriously - big respect. And a proof that one can be firm and powerful, while keeping a certain level of quality.

This country is shit

I did not vote for this. Our “leader” and his cronies are destroying this country.

If it’s a dumb thing for American to do. How is it smart to do the same thing back? It will be equally bad for both countries.

As an American, my heart breaks for my country. It is so sad that our friendship has been damaged.

This guy is lying so hard lol. Immigrants were coming in from your own country to America. America needs to start making our own stuff!! We been buying from everyone for years, but time to change that!!!!

Sorry as a American this is our life's at risk .keep your proud stance.proud stance for Canada.We are in tears losing our great country to criminals God Bless Canada we our scared stressed for our social security, health care and our anger at the thugs taking away our relationship our fear to keep breathing and enjoy our past relationships Thankyou for your love to all people God is good God help us !???????? Jim

Trump is CLEARLY not a smart man ! Either that, or he is a Russian asset working to harm western countries as much as possible.

CNN it’s probably rooting for the other countries

Sorry but 50 percent of Americans are stupid. I used to love your country. No longer

Trump voters should be embarrassed for their supporting this deranged person Kamala Harris wouldn’t have us in this position. Trump is so greedy for money there most be something in Ukraine that he wants so he’s allowing Russia to take control of that country. Maybe it’s something to do with some type of precious minerals such as titanium,lithium etc.

I wish we had leaders who led like this. Would a kind Canadian come kidnap me please? You don't have to keep me, but please get me out of here. ?\n\nIn all seriousness, I'm ashamed of my president AND my country. I'm thankful, tho, for those who are willing to stand up to the wannabe king. Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine - we're sorry and we're rooting for you!

Some people may not know where Donald Trump is doing what he is doing he trying to overthrow this country. So what he’s doing he trying to turn all the other countries against the American people so he can lock it down and help things his way. That’s one of the reasons why he is determined to destroy Ukrainian and other of our allies so him and his circle can do all their dirty work

trump cannot be a dictator and maintain alliance with democracy countries. Maga voter's for some reason believe dictatorship work in their favor. ?

We carry you Canada. Young man.stop the rubbish.we are a rich country. Your lieing to your people.

Good on you Canada, Australia supports your standing up to Trump. He has even hit Australia with tariffs on steel and Aluminium. Trump is a criminal and a traitor to his country.

Trump forgets, or never knew where all the American planes landed during 9-11. The Canadian people and specifically Newfoundlanders, fed and took care of people from all over the world. He would charge the people on the planes if they landed in he US! And ask for the mineral rights in their countries!

USA will lose many more friends except Israel, Russia and a few countries...

America last. The shunned country.

Trudeau is a parasite and a danger to his country just like Trump is. Who cares what he’s gotta say

What an absolute disgraceful time to be American. I've never been so ashamed of my country.

We don’t want this either, and the current administration is not MY government and I know so many people who feel the same way. Trump and his cohorts are a danger to the American people and I am disgusted and ashamed that he is the ” leader” of my country. We stand with every true democracy against this tyrant and all who support him and his plot to destroy the United States!

That’s right stand up for your country president Trudeau. Donald Trump is a big ass liar. I have been to Canada several times. And I know for a fact it’s gonna be very very very very hard to bring drugs up out of Canada to United States. Canada is a wonderful lovely country. You’re doing right not to deal with a evil man. He’s just using the Tarniff law to try to put extra money in his pocket and they trying to con the other countries out of their money.Lying to the American people make them think it’s another reason why he’s doing the Tarniff law . He’s a habitual liar, and a con man and a thief.I wouldn’t do no business with him at all he cannot be trusted. If a man will betrade his own country he will betrade anybody. Who ever in United States they pick up a gun or try to hurt the Canadians any kind of way it’s a damn fool. In the truck started a war with Canada with him in office I would rather fight for Canada then fight for him

American don’t need Canada. You need us more than we need you. American needs to stop giving taxpayer money to these other countries.

Love that you are giving facts to all Trump’s bullshit reasoning behind his tariffs…oh how I miss the times we had someone in the White House that spoke so eloquently. Mr orange face is an embarrassment to this country.

Canada is an amazing country, and their cities have the hottest girls. It's true.

I just hope Trudeau knows that is was TRUMP that did this, NOT America!!! The vast majority of us stand with you and your country sir, and come 2029 this nonsense will be over

If you want to stop Trump in his tracks, if you want to teach him a well deserved lesson, boycott all American products coming into Canada and every other country around the world. Stop selling products to America, and ban Americans from coming into your countries.\nIn less than a month or even less you will have Trump on his knees begging you all. You want the bullying to stop?\nStop the bully.

As an American, I am fully ashamed of trump and elon . This is horrible. I respect your country

as an old Swissman. Impressive speech Mr.Trudeau! This is how a true leader speaks. Long live Canada!\nWhat is this orange madman doing with his great country, the USA? \nHow could anyone vote for such a man? You can see what he's doing. Starting an economic war for what?

for people from outside Canada that is praising this speech.., This is the first time he has spoken with some rationale thinking. You also don't know how he has supported the drug problem. In this speech he is doing an about face - it is pathetic to listen to this. He should have been doing this the last 4 years instead of driving this country into the ground. Of yeah, and he has parliament shutdown as we go through these external threats. Hold your praise, this is temporary.

As an American, I am appalled by Trump’s actions. I, for one, agree that his reasons for imposing tariffs is a lie. I strongly disagree with his blatant disregard for America’s allies. There is NO justification for aligning the US with Putin. If he thinks Putin has our interests in mind, he is crazy! Before it’s too late, I hope that his cabinet, the house, and senate realize that they can no longer support a president who does not support our interests as a country.

Once the American people see what Trump is doing to their country they will want him out. Canada should add another one percent per month to the tariffs until the Ameican stock market bombs.

I am from Alberta, Canada and would like to thank all the American people that have said that they stand with Canada. YOU CAN HELP. Call or write to your various levels of government and let them know that this is wrong and will hurt everyone in the US and Canada. The sooner that the US government realizes this is a no win situation, the better for all of us. Also, thank you to everyone around the world for your support. I am Canadian, I am strong and free and I will fight for my country and for my family.

My fellow Americans, we have far to many gullible and ignorant citizens in our country who voted for this idiot not once, not twice but 3 times. Insanity. Make it make sense. You voted for a proven narcissist, liar and impulsive man and now everybody in our country is going to suffer. The rest of the world is understandably concerned. We have a Putin sympathizer in the Oval Office. We have a traitor to Western democracy in our midst in power. \n\nWe now have massive layoffs coupled with cuts to vital services and help for our own citizens including Medicaid and other things. This is disturbing and troubling how fast it's unravelling. We can only hope that patriots and others can help stem this tide. We must use peaceful means to and pressure on our politicians to become more vocal in our concerns.

As an American ?? I did not vote for Trump . He’s an embarrassment to our country .
