Could this be about the mineral ? Trump is making problems with our neighboring allies and Ukraine . What's the end game. Maybe he's underestimating them, or he's relying on what once was America's strength. Trump believes military powers is strength , but he fail to understand the value of unity. We know that the rare minerals are common in the world disputes. Could it be that Trump is just planning to take them ?. Ukraine is not having it. Canada's not having it. Question remains, what's the end game? This doesn't make sense to alienate America from the rest of the world. ?

Trudeau had 8 years to bring his financial responcabily to the UN, as equil partners. He failed.\nHe is depending on USA to protect him, because we are his neighbor... laughable!

This man has been lying his whole career, and now people believe him a 12 second video? There's a reason behind his failed policies and why he is resigning.

Canada is not the USA it is part of something much greater it is called the Commonwealth the United States may be failing it's empire declining because of one man I am Australian two countries you can always count on and they are the United Kingdom and Australia

What Trump is doing is collecting money from these tariffs, while at the same time bringing certain industries back to the United States. These tariffs will not be permanent but will remain for a certain period to encourage companies to relocate. He runs his country like a business, he doesn’t care if there are job losses elsewhere.\n\nCanada and Mexico will have to adjust and start becoming less dependent on the United States. It will be difficult for Canada because we are a consumer country, we manufacture almost nothing. TSMC is moving to the U.S., his plan is working, and other companies will follow.\n\nHere in Canada, we import a huge amount of American products. We absolutely need to change our habits, we should not support a country that wants to see us fail.

I live in this godforsaken joke of a country and I've been unemployed for OVER TWO YEARS despite having a degree, 5y experience, and a willingness to move literally anywhere for work. The economy is DEAD. We are SCREWED. Annexation is unironically the only way I see that we can get out of this unless we want to turn into a failed state.

And now because of trump the terrorists that will be launch for my allies back to us what cause Mass inflation our president is failing us and it's only been 6 weeks wouldn't be surprised if one of his acts magical supporters ends up knocking him off soon

Beautiful to hear a real leader. I am so sorry for this mafia boss we have now...\n Words fail.

another stupid game by USA, just as they did against russia, and failed in Ukraine...the USA is trying to smoke everyone out in Canada and Mexico, and make it one big country, with maybe Greenland scoop up later..Russia doesnt wont more land, just no missiles on its border, like USA didnt want them in Cuba...This world could really be something if we didnt have these old dudes from a bygone era, still wanting to be number one in the world, when we all live on the same planet...They are still scared of Reds under the bed..they have sycceeded in getting rid of Trudeau, he will be gone, just when he is coming to life...The USA is like a rabid dog now, they foam at the mouth thinking they are the leader of the west world, what a joke..they are all liars and cheats, and dont even tell their own public the truth..if only we all settled down and acted like good neighbours, how good the world could be

Trump will fail US if he continues with his arrogance

President Musk planning to buy up American and Canadian interests that will fail because of these tariffs his puppet is implementing.

President Musk planning to buy up Canadian interests that will fail because of these tariffs he is implementing.

Get lost justin Tradeau. He is khalistan separatist supporting PM of canada. He is a failed leader who has ruined Canadian economy and unable to handle housing crisis and inflation

I find it amusing??? Trudeau is a bafoon who is respected by noone, not even Canadians. And because if his foolishness in failing to meet Canada's onligation to NATO, there are now consequences, and he's whining like a little b***

As much as I like the message, I just find this is a waste of time to rationalize or reasoning with the orange clown and his uneducated base, like the clown said himself that he loves his uneducated supporters. Just return the favour. That's it. You can't fix stupid. Canada just needs to find more reliable and trust worthy partners. As much as I hate to say, US government can't be trusted. \n\nHey donald, little petty man with small hands. Glad that your trump towers in Toronto and Vancouver failed. You now try to avenge but you are making dumb mistakes to let personal touchy feelings to interfere with country affairs.

Is there anyway Trudeau can run for the presidency in the USA? We need help from an articulate, thoughtful thinking person as opposed to our current leader who blames everything on the Biden adminstration and names scapegoats for his own failings. Trudeau is hoping Donny will change....not in the cards!

the r@ci$t resigned failed and spineless mouse squeaks ... bye bye

I Iook forward to raising a glass when we learn the news that this undercooked mutt has failed to recover from a bad fall. \n\nSadly Vance is next in line and other undercooked mutts.  \n\nNever imagined we'd go from a golden escalator to an alley between a porn shop and landscape office to hell in a hand basket... at least in my lifetime. Shit show engaged.

So wait I'm confused... Imposing a 25% tax on another country is considered a hostile act, but imposing a 25% tax (or more) on your own citizens is just and fair? I fail to understand the double standard.

Trumpaloonatic is hurting the U.S purposely. Even those who r right there by his side. He dont care bout u he needs u to manipulate the ppl under u so they do the same to the ones under them and do forth. Melania... she has it coming. The FB guy, he has it coming, all those who once made this FK crybaby feel bad or shamed him infront of camaras... u have it coming. Why? How? Hes big jack horner... he plays games but he doesnt get his way he makes u pay. He is paying back for being a failed business man in the U.S. Because he has failed as a business man, he has made it to where he is now because he is a very successful con artist, a swindler and a scammer. Hes a sneaky snake who has the U.S under his armpit squeezing every single $ out of it. This FKR needs to be stopped.

MAGA you're making America fail again.

Let US isolate themselves. Once their economy fails so will their military. They voted for stupid

I want prices to go down as much as anyone; but I do not want to hurt the citizens in our allied countries or any countries for that matter. Many presidents have tried this many times and have failed. Why does Trump believe he won’t? I love my country but I hope these European and American allies hold strong against Trump. Trump is a liar!

what trump fails to understand is that the united states has some of the biggest pharma companies in the world, who makes fentanyl, pharma, so its probably in his own back yard that this is coming from

If Canadians are failing to stop drugs then evan Americans are also failing to stop it !

Canada, please know that the intellectual, thoughtful American public is with you, we are not with him, he is no more than a flash in the pan failed real estate developer and failed reality tv show host. We all know that this too shall pass, please stay with us.

So, everyone's favorite leader of Canada failed negotiations with Trump and decided to go public by putting pressure on the American people who are paying for the whole buffet. Since when did politics and diplomacy become such an ugly mess?

Trudeau is the epitome of what a failed leader looks like for a country. He is a joke and Canadians don’t want him.

Kudos to the PM Trudeau for speaking out against Trump tariffs. Mr. Trudeau sees what the Trump voters fail to see prior to the elections. Trump is using the excuse of stopping drugs coming into the country. When in reality his tariffs will only benefit corporations. These tariffs will be passed down to the consumers who will pay for them. If everyone who voted for Trump weren't deaf and blind we would not have to now worry more about inflation and higher prices. All those who blamed Biden for increased prices should have looked back at the pandemic that Trump failed to acknowledge.

It’s okay. We’re pushing an ex-Goldman Sachs, unelected, failed financial advisor of the last five years into the leaving PM’s position. Eh ✊

You leftists whining about Trump only have yourselves to blame. You voted for Biden/Harris and thats what your party put forth as the best candidates.\n\nThey failed so bad that the majority of the country went with a better choice. Blame your party to put up better candidates next time.

What most fail to fathom is: When Trump and Putin bring an end to the war and align economically, the west will be crushed and there is nothing they can do about it.

Why is anyone even justifying or addressing the insane baseless accusations of an orange grifting Cheeto failed snake oil “businessman”\nDude IS A LIAR CON ARTIST

We love Canada. Tariffs fail. Especially tariffs on friends. We are $36 TRILLION in debt. We need to block trade, but not with friends.

Its unfortunate when you keep hearing smart, thoughtful, well spoken, empathetic world leaders....and not once are one of those world leaders Your leader who just got into office....Trump is a failure in every way possible and hopefully all that McDonalds catches up with him and he will fail at being alive too

And on April 1st, we’ll see an automatic increase on an unfair Carbon Tax and liquor. Meanwhile our administration continues to print more money after failing to balance the budget, exceeding it by a whopping 50%.

canada gdp: 2 trillion. \nUS gdp: 27 trillion.\nthe usa will outlast canada. this is empty politicking for an outgoing, failed PM.

Drop the tariffs on US goods and we will immediately drop the tariffs on Canadian goods. I fail to see why this is so difficult.

Trump supporters who are negatively affected by this will complain that the American goverment failed them. They won't say Trump. It's the American government that caused this.

Comments show that Trump is not the problem, it’s the American education system that has completely failed us. lol “ I’m for the country, not the government” regardless without the “government “ bad or good! America wouldn’t be what it is now without it. None y’all could run a country, or make good money management decisions so none of this will even matter to you ? good night

You lied about Trump being for Trump and we sure don't need lesson from you and your failing country I read Canadian people not to happy with you.

6:43 Sure we stuck to our word but that's irrelevant. Dump is intent on getting his hands on Canada's natural resources because he thinks leaving any money on the table is criminal. He thinks it's a failing that we haven't treated our environment like an oligarch's playground, selling off everything to the highest bidder. This is what he has TOLD you he is planning for America and he's created this trade war smokescreen to keep everyone distracted while he does it. He won't be done until all of North America and Greenland are barren and there's no profit left to make.

Trump make American fail ?

Oh Canada!!\n Thanks CNN!!\nNext up!!\n Failing of USA , real-time prime time!\n At the hands of Donald..\nI am happy to see how American is going hurt it’s what you voted for, Donald.\n\nDonald is your scourge!

Trudeau is a joke. While he is pushing his agenda. Fur starters, he fails to mention the trade deficit with the usa. So bottom line while everyone loses, canada loses more. The us can survive a lot easier without canada, while canada will suffer a lot more without the usa.\n\nWhen i bring cheese from the usa to canada, there is a 200% tax on anything above my $20 personal exemption, the save is not the same when bringing dairy to the usa.\n\nIf you want to be treated fairly, treat others fairly.\n\nAfter watching zelensky from Ukraine, Trudeau is pretty stupid if he thinks he will win this one.

Hey Canadians, on behalf of the good people in America... I apologize for the ignorance and stupidity of one EMBARRASSING excuse of a leader that is not only sticking it to Americans in every way you can think ... I refuse to call him a president because he is NOT... He is a convicted felon, convicted on 34 felonies. He is a fraudster, a cheater, a LIAR, a thief, and a THUG! He is not a legal president because he cheated to get elected in the first place because he cheated in 2016 by having his Russian friends interfer in our election by smearing, and launching the wikileaks ĺeak that She had emails from her secratary of state days on an unsecured computer at the DNC Hillary Clinton, merely weeks ahead of the 2016 election.\nTrump also incited a seditious insurection in 2020 after losing that election failing his attempted coup to sieze power in an election he LOST! Donald Trump and many of the GOP that ran for thier lives on Jan. 6th 2021 now refer to the insyrection as a peacful gathering of non violent protesters... Trump calls it the best day ever!!! Think about that for a minute! The very first order of business Trump did after his inauguration was to pardon 1500 crimina convicts that either plead guilty or were found guilty of charges like sedition. And insurectionists. Many of them for violent crimes like battery on a police officer. And other charges loke trespassing on a federal building, and theft charges for stealing laptops and all sorts of things.\nDonald Trumps first act was to free all of them with a wave of a pen... he freed police bashers!!! And scum bags like Elmer Rhoads, and leader of the proud boys Enrique Tarrio... and all tge violent punks that tried to overturn a free and fair election!!! I is disgusting! HE a k so pardoned the biggest drug dealer in America that catered to criminals and murderers, the owner and inventer of the silk roads dark web site.\nTrump is a Russian asset, make no mistake about it. And fir the last 40 days or so he set about to burning down all American institutions with the help of his Billionaire campaign donors that agreed to get him elected for MORE MONEY!!! Trump is turningvon our trusted allies all friends, and siding with countries like Russua, North Korea, Iran, Turkey, and other countries that are under the control of string men autocrats, and dictators! He publicly called our friend and ally Vlidomir Zelenskyy a dictator! While at the same time calling Vladimir Putin a genius, and a really smart guy that wants peace he says!\nVladimir Putin is the worlds most cold blooded mass murderer of our lifetime and he is a war criminal that kills mostly civilians, women and children deliberatly!!! He poisons his political opponents and business partners with plutonium and other ways like having them thrown out a high ruse window, or shit from the sky in an airplane!!!\nDonald Trump is a maniac that Ameruca needs to desperately get rid of before he finishes the job of burning down all our institutions and burning our constitution and democracy in order to turn Ameruca into an autocracy...\nSo, Canadians.... we Americans are deeply embarrassed and we apologize for the reckless behavior of one man!! One ignorant man... Donald Trump. There has never been a more shameful and embarrassing time to be an American! Eff Trump!!!

Im from Texas. I have never agreed with the policies of Trump. I'll gladly be on the front lines with Canada.\n\nOur country has not only failed us, but the American people that call themselves American. We have turned into a bigger facist nation than Russia. At least some of them go missing for trying to whistle blow on an international level. Meanwhile, we cry to each other internally as if anyone has the balls to stand up

The Trump regime just signed an English-only mandate. If Canada fails in this they won't even be allowed to speak French.

Are you people stupid. Canada will fail in 12 months. Hence the reason he said they can send us into economic ruin.. when the hell is the last time you bought a product from Canada? exactly

Trudeau, you damaged Canada and brought it to where it is right now you have no right to speak on anything and tell about what other people have done. Take accountability for yourself and you have failed the Canadian people. I don’t know why we have a bunch of Canadians over here, sucking you off like they don’t remember what you’ve done. Is everyone on this page who is a Canadian suffering from Stockholm syndrome? Do you not remember what this guy has done to our country with immigration and taxing us with the carbon tax out of the Wazzu. Give your head a shake you sleepy Canadians. Canadians act too weak and that’s why we’re treated this way.
