Why is it a trade war for you to have to pay your own share? You’re like a spoiled child that didn’t get the toy he cry’s for in a store.

Keep your godndam materials get a fukkn rehab for the millions of all drugs there ?.you need a backbone and make a military ? like 50 years ago pal.u need to retire from your job

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.

Trudeau is not our Friend....we dont like his type...get rid of him/her and tarriffs go away

Yeah we dont gaf. Been trying to get Canada to help protect the American continents for decades from Russia. \n\nYou're full of the old white owl.\n\nTired of the spending ...time to grow up. Gave out right fa tories to Canada and Mexico whole industries to help them along and the sacrifices was like a participation trophy.\n\nBring it.

Sounds like a drug war, we have seen how that works. The only reason fet is around is because they don't want to get rid of their own legal fentanyl

Trump is a bully and thinks like a child without thinking of the consequences. He’s been getting his way for years and running around bullying others. I really hope Canada Mexico whoever trump wants to bully stand on business and does the same. Unfortunately we Americans will be caught in the crossfire but it has to be done.

No one likes Trudeau not even most of his own people go away already you ruined Canada . Get a common sense PRIME minister that can bring back Canada to its glory a respectful SUPPORTER from the U.S.

Can't Americans impeach Trump as not fit to lead? Because a lot of his decisions lately is not making making America great again. He destroying it from the inside and not supporting Ukraine for their freedom, making Ukraine great again and for their independence as country. Makes the decision very un-American. Don't get me wrong, I like the American people, but Donald Trump has got to go...?

Tit for tat. If you want to get rid of tariffs let's get rid of tariffs on your side and that's all of your tariffs that you have implemented on our products for years. Bridges leveling the playing field. So it's okay for you to impose tariffs on others but not for us to impose tariffs just like you do to us

And this is why I do not follow CNN. This came up in my feed, and I wanted to hear what Trudeau had to say. And I wanted to hear him speak in French. But no, you booger globs must think that there are no people in America who speak French, and no people in America who would like to hear him speak French. You are part of the problem, CNN. And then to hear this woman say what she says after that talk is just appalling to me. Lady, you are a turncoat. You do not have your ethics and morals in place. Anti-American? Anti-American? Is that what you got from this? Where is your dance cap!? Get it together. My god, what a disgrace, CNN. This is junk media. Infotainment.

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!

Myself a humble, quiet, soft spoken overly apologetic Canadian from Alberta will explain to the Orange clown loving Americans what just happened. (just in case the sudden politeness/professionalism was a cerebral barrier) ..My boss gave your boss the middle finger and had a talkie talk to him like you would a child or someone with severe mental disabilities... and, btw.... Canada welcomes Maine, Washington state and Oregon as our new provinces if they want or need to defect. No questions or security check involved.. all good ..we get it! come on up! Free Tim Horton's coffee on me!!

Love or hate Trudeau, hearing him speak like that makes me proud to be Canadian. We will ban together, we’ll get through this. #ViveLeCanada

This is a good man. I wish we had someone in the White House who looked and sounded like him. TRUMP IS RUINING US AND STILL NI ONE IS DOING ANYTHING. What is wrong with the DEMOCRATS. GET MOVING GET TRUMP OUT OF THE POSITION HE’S IN BEFORE WE ARE ALL FORCED TO BOW DOWN TO PUTIN BECAUSE THAT’S WHERE THIS IS GOING.

Its time for Canada to get up, diversify its resources, invest in Tech companies massively. I had a plan to have the canadian version of the Facebook but couldn't get the investment and team needed in Canada. There would be millions of others like me but now is the time for Canada to stand up and invest in its people.

The Donald's least concern is his people, his poor people, because his millionaire friends Bezos, Musk, and company are going to get richer, a lot richer, with all these moves. Like Napoleon Bonaparte and Hitler, Trump sees himself as the great conqueror of the world, the chosen one, the incarnation of Jesus on Earth, and his followers believe he is. The poor devils, as ignorant as Trump himself.

As an American, I gotta say… we really shouldn’t be doing Canada like this. I get it when it comes to China and other countries, but Canada?! I do not approve! ?? and ?? are basically besties regardless of the government drama and whatever substances may be involved.\n\nMeanwhile, Mexico is out here like, “Hello? Focus on me!” ??\n\nAnd in true Canadian fashion… “I’m so sorry, eh!” ??

Yeah, what he wants is that Canada becomes the 51 state of and then once it becomes the 51 state Canada no longer will be making decision in anything and then everything that the Canada has worked or owns will be his for his own purpose haha. What does he thinks that Canada are bunch of idiots? well lets see. they will be like Puerto Rico with no right to do anything and like he told the Governor of the state of maine, you better comply or you get nothing from us because I am the federal government haha.

Reporters keep saying that the deterioration of U.S. and Canada relationship is exactly what their adversaries want…. But they are getting this wrong. Trump and Putin are NOT adversaries! They are alleis! \nTrump is planning to do to his neighbors exactly what Putin is doing to Ukraine. The USA is now a dictatorship just like Russia.

Man ! so refreshing to have a leader that doesn't get up on the podium and name call or throw tantrums. It feels like what politics is actually supposed to be: Civil and cordial. THANKYOU Trudeau !

Nobody cares about phentanyl, it's you Mr. Prime Minister who Trump doesn't like. Once you're out, everything will get back to normal like before.

I don't get it. I'm not an American and i hoped for trump to win just for what he said he would and for what biden did to him by making him like Hitler which is not true and almost got him assassinated but seriously...after you see what is happening, how can someone support him.

As a Canadian, I have to say that we must get rid of Trudeau ASAP. This man is dangerous. How can he form alliances with Europe when our principal economic partner is the United-States. He's playing a very dangerous game and I don't like it one bit!

just remember Canada has as much people as California... America has already made a deal with others that actually like us. That appreciate air defense so they don't get murdered. He thinks he can tell us 25% but we can't tear them 25% with all the s*** we Supply...

You reject got 800. Free US tax payer fighter jets you bribed. Your people hate you step out. Save your people the demonic biden demorat thinking for bribes. You cant even keep out the drugs cause yours is behind it you cant keep your indigenous people from being among the missing or found dead. You let harrowin in your prizons so when your people get out of prizon they live under bridges. So dont say you have a secure border. Noone likes you. Your a Hittler.

Making a mistake by validating the BS lie via stating everything that Canada is doing against fentanyl. “Don’t wrestle with pigs, you both get dirty and the pig likes it”. \n\nDumb Americans don’t understand what 1.3 B $ border plan is, they don’t know if that is enough and you’re placing yourself in a position of 1) recognizing the problem as legitimate, and 2)“are you doing enough”. Call it for what it is, bullshit - It was never about safety and fentanyl was a lame unfounded excuse. Know your audience, don’t fall into the Trump trap and speak in simple terms.

#1. Trump postponed so that Canada wouldn’t literally freeze them out by cutting off energy. Now that winter is ending it’s game on\n#2. If Trump wanted to start a war with Canada he needs congress. The only way to get them on his side is Canada to poke the US in the eye.\n#3. Quit talking about Fentanyl without pointing every finger at China. \n#4. If you like how Trudeau is acting now, after 9 years. That’s just a politician who knows they won’t be re-elected. He still has to protect his party though. Too little too late

Trump supports a dictator who lets children and babies die and wants to wipe out an entire country. He is opposing all of his allies for Putin. Putin will get money again. He is sacrificing parts of Ukraine and Putin has no need to fear punishment. Many countries were allies of the USA. We fully supported the USA after September 11th. People in the EU also died for you! I liked the USA very much, I spent my vacation there but I will not do that anymore, I will no longer buy American products. A dictator is being supported here and all our help to Ukraine for the past 3. years will be wasted! Trump will also restructure the USA so that he is the only king and no one controls him anymore. He want rich russians oligarch in the USA...That is how I think and feel... he s like Biff in back to the future when he owns all...From Germany! Thank You Canada❤.. \n\nI send love and recognition to every US American who did not vote for this president and who is for democracy and human rights. ❤️

Quite acting like a teenage boy who is getting his allowance taken away.

Tbh this guy seems just like he's angry that his gravy train just been cut off and been told to get in line.

I know I will get attacked in the comments for this, but I grew up in the US watched many presidents come and go, and I have never seen the country that I live in turn so corrupt and evil in my life we have been lied to by our president. A man I did not vote for and it almost feels like it is turning into a fascist regime. I think it is time for me to leave and move to Canada because at least they know the difference between right and wrong. my family, a long time ago fled from fascist Germany and came to America because back then it was the land of the free it terrifies me to know that my family ran from that only to end up right back where it was before in the future my prayers go out to every American citizen and hope that you all rise up, right and left and independent and do what you can to get this dictator out of office. He’s only been in there not even two months and look how bad everything is already. United we stand divided, we fall.

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

What i don’t like in the main stream media CNN and others is that they don’t specifically say WHO will get hurt, it’s not the rich, why CNN why don’t you just say it?

Thought this man was stepping down and not liked in Canada Everyone should get the facts This man said No to closing our borders are you Americans are not this man was letting Illegal immigrants through on the Canadian side SCREW TRUDEAU

Only 4 hours have passed and this aged like milk. Zalensky on his way back to make the mineral deal and sue for peace with Putin. Sorry to the war mongering bloodthirsty hethens out there that we're getting hard thinking about World War 3. The world is choosing peace, and its thanks the Donald Trump.

Trump should thank his lucky stars that Justin is not like his dad who was one of Canada's greatest PM's & he did not take in BS. from anyone in fact if Justin was like his dad the bleep button would get worn out & in person the secret service would half to pull them a part because there would be fight .

The tables have turned my friends... Buckle up, batten down... Trump is loyal to no one... America wasn't suffering for lack before this change of govt... Just look at their arms bill $$$... But Trump is like Freddy from elm street with the slashing hand... Slashing away at friends and foes... Yep, like Jason with the machete ... You short-termed memory voters unleashed the beast upon yourselves and the world... ?? Bravo... But a nation usually gets the leader it deserves, sorry to say.??

I guess USA citizens and Trudeau simply aren't getting it, Trump wants these tariffs because he WANTS to tax the heck out of the ordinary US citizen in order to pay for his tax cuts for his Billionaire friends.....Canada could have COMPLETELY stopped Fentanyl trafficking and Trump STILL would have invoked tariffs.....just like no matter what Zelenskyy could do, he was determined to make an EXCUSE to stop supporting Ukraine's war efforts.......in addition, if you didn't know better, it appears that Trump wants to team up with Russia......??????

So following Trumps Logic, he wants to be like Putin, and get america to embrace that along with Russia. To do so, he is picking firghts with all of america's allies and then using their responsses to demonise them to get USA to embrace Russia, aka, bring down americas walls - so to speak and embrace dictators. So America, we stand up, or find ourselves in the company of dictators and subject to their whims. Again, Trump is selling Russia to us by stabbing our allies in the back demonising their obvious responses. When only 1 man is responsible for this, it's not a democracy

I’ll watch this legacy media clip ..grits teeth..no likes tho. Get it together media. You might not know it but you are a WE as well

I live in Maine on the border with Canada and im absolutely ashamed at what trump is doing. Canada is an incredible country and a great ally to the US, and this entire thing that trump is doing is reprehensible. It would be an improvement to have a leader like Trudeau who can actually get a point across.

Isn't Trudeau the same guy who invited a real Ukrainian Nazi WW 2 veteran in his nation? Um yeah. Isn't Trudeau the same guy who wore black face in college? Yes he did it \n Isn't Trudeau the same fascist who stole working class Canadians during COVID bullshit? Yes \n Ok keep it real, Trump's a duchebag like Biden and as a independent voter in America I'm just saying we get the shit sandwich lemmings in both nations voted for or were the only options allowed

This is the what Trump and his voters has brought on America and it is likely to get worse. So MAGA Trump supporters is this what you want, is this what you voted for, now you know what you should have known before you voted for Russian’s puppet.

CANADA YOY ARE LIKE A ANT ? AMERICA IS LIKE A ELEPHANT ? ELEPHANT CRUSHES AND ANT ? YALL WILL SAY UNCLE SOON WE ARE GETTING CANADA AND GREENLAND AND PANAMA AND MEXICO JUSTIN DONALD TRUMP IS GOING TO GIVE YOU A SPANKING JUSTIN SETTLE DOWN

Quit acting like this is a guy who Canadians actually like. Trudeau is massively unpopular and will be gone very soon, when the new Prime Minister of Canada is put in place there will be a deal. Canada has run wild for far too long getting the best of us in every way now that it is fair they act as if they have been doing us favors all along when it has been the other way around.

Twice in a week Trump is humiliated by a world leader, Trump thinking he can be a president of a country like the ceo of a corporation. He blackmails people offering them scraps from the table of his last meal as if they should be thankful. How on gods earth did America vote this clown as it's leader. Putin has spent 3 years trying to get into Kiev and in a few weeks has managed to get into the Oval office of the Whitehouse. I sit here in the UK watching what is going on in America like many around the world cringing and at the same time laughing at how such a scumbag could achieve what he has done. Trump and his arse licking lapdog are making a laughing stock of the US and you seem helpless to stop the shitshow that is coming your way. I feel for you and hope his stupidity will lead to a very quick exit for the now most famous clown in the world.

Good, I like it. Keep it up. Don't let this evil get what it wants cause it's sick.

Trudumb, a friend dose not take and never return generosity. The current administration is just demonstrating how much of the American tax dollars go to Canada. About $300B, sounds like you all get more than any US state. \n\nFYI: Canada has the best fence in the world…it’s called the United States of America!!!

After a couple of years Trump and co will say, that Canada started a trade war against US. Just like they say, that Ukraine and Zelenskyy started the war with Russia. And now some uf US commentators are saying the same. It’s crazy. And there will be no way to get him to remember the facts. He and all who work for him are liars and half truth tellers. I’m not sure how to deal with this. But it is VERY important for all media outlets to keep reminding the facts. Just tell what happens, so there is a record. I think that could help in the end.\nSo here are my 5p:\nUS started trade war against Canada with 25% tariffs.\nRussia annexed Crimean peninsula and attacked Ukraine in 2022. This is the truth, no two ways about these facts.\nTrump and Vance are liars.
