In blistering speech… ???? Yea ok, wait till they see those blistering tariffs

So it's ok that white European Immigrants from Ireland, France, Italy, UK and East Europeans want to close the door behind them. Cheeky isn't it?

I don't think I've ever bought anything that was made in Canada. I think we'll be ok...go ahead and play your hand.

Don't buy Canadian Bacon, Maple Syrup and other Canadian goods. Canada is NOT the closest ally of the US and has long in fact been like the Karen nation of North America who is massively passive aggressive to the US, and outright hatred for the US is rampant among many Canadians. 25 percent 155 billion which is dwarfed by the trade imbalance of the many billions more of Canadian goods that go to the US, mostly it is American Alcohol that goes to Canada, to fuel the drunks of Canadian society, so Homeless alcoholics in Canada might truly suffer. How is more sobriety a bad thing Trudeau? This might be fantastic for people who drink alcohol to make a break with the booze they have been needing. \n\nThe rest of us, who don't buy Canadian goods nor own or invest in American alcohol won't feel anything. In fact we pay more for mailing stuff to Canada from the Canadian postal service. \n\nWe learned not to mail stuff to Canada. We are ok now living with that limitation.

You say you want to work with us hell yall have been getting over on us so you saying it’s ok for you to charge us more money for trade but where not supposed to charge yall don’t just speak half the truth

I am ?? \nYes the tariffs are bad. But everyone forgets how much money we spend defending them and the subsidies we give every fiscal year. I understand that the market will suffer. I just don’t understand how people think it’s ok for ?? to provide military protection to other countries with the ?? taxpayer money. ?

I vote for trump I am still ok

Trump, SMART GUY?.HUMMM REALLY.... SMH OK IF U SAY SO

OK woke Trudeau, who is about to get replaced - remove tariffs targeting US businesses for the last 3 decades, like the 200%+ tariff on dairy products from USA, then we can talk\n\n...and YES we will deal with Russia because they are the only country who didn't take a red cent of aid from USA - their fertilizer is far cheaper than Canada's fertilizer.\n\nI'm speaking to Canadians - especially the truckers whose bank accounts Trudeau froze - vote out the woke Canadian government!\n\nAs far as CNN goes, you are traitors - you would betray USA because the dummy you wanted to win failed against Trump.\n\nThe stock market going down has far more to do with short supply of chips - that is why tech companies were hit heaviest. Last time I checked, Canada doesn't make chips.

Gotta stop that fentanyl that is killing his base in middle America, but Russian ships are OK since he's hoping to have the SS Krasnov commissioned soon.

I don't understand why so many Americans are ok with this...

???????…. When Biden does it yall are ok with it… let’s be crystal clear… you haven’t done shit for show or help.

For me, this is a major wake up call. We have them an opportunity to be apart of our economy and they’ve used it to threaten us. Both Canada and Mexico. We need to bring everything back to USA and I’m ok with patriotically paying the cost of any inflationary attack from these countries so long as we take EVERYTHING back to the USA.

ok time to give the russian agent trump the heave ho!!!!!

Ok so you’re mad at Trump and now ur going to hurt the actual people. Trump won’t be affected by this at all!!! ???

Now he cares about the well being of every Canadian? Ya ok.

so great to hear a head of state (ok.. kinda) from the North American continent who is able to speak in full sentences.

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!!

We don’t want this either, PM Trudeau. And this isn’t our government. It hasn’t been our government for a few decades now. Please do everything you need to in order to fight back. We will be ok. We will fight back against this criminal administration in every way that we can. God Bless Canada and its wonderful people.

How dignified. \nI feel we Americans are watching our rights slowly disappear. Our elections have likely been corrupted. We are facing at least a major economic recession if not a depression. This all said, I believe Americans value their independence and will fight for it. So, ok our democracy is under attack, we must fight.

Lol, so tariffs are a bad thing for the country, but ok for them to implement on theirs, lol!!!! Feed me more BS. Its about who they hurt more. Believe me, its Canada that will feel it more. The US will have more companies popping up to fill the gap.

I wish we had somebody like Prime Minister Trudeau in the US Government instead of what we've had (OK, a couple weren't so bad).

Im so sick of this clown… i thought you resigned? Its not ok to tariff “our closest friend?”\nYet canada is ripping us off by billions in trade and has zero control of their border? Is that how friends and allies act!!! The us isnt in desperate need of you canada\nAlso…. DONT EVEN TALK ABOUT RUSSIA AND PEACE OR WAR OR ANYTHING OF THE MATTER !!! YOU CANNOT EVEN PROTECT YOURSELF! We american pay to protect your pansy ass!!!

Im so sick of this clown… i thought you resigned? Its not ok to tariff “our closest friend?”\nYet canada is ripping us off by billions in trade and has zero control of their border? Is that how friends and allies act!!! The us isnt in desperate need of you canada

Ok, forget the drugs. Take back your Canadian dimes and the tarrifs will stop.\n\nOn a serious note: the White House has done a poor job at explaining the tarrif discrepancy between our two nations.

This piece of crap is smiling, its ok we will figure it out

Are the Baldwins ok?

ok tough guy

So it's OK you tax us but you don't want to pay.Amagine that.

I don’t stand with anyone except the UNITED STATES Of AMERICA! But I want to make something very clear. We just went through 4 years of absolute hell with The Biden administration!! No way around it. And the democrats will do anything to make trump look bad no matter if it hurts our country or not. They simply hate the fact that the checks and the cross dressing and what ever nasty crap they spent our money on . They won’t talk about that! But what I want to know is why we aren’t saying ok Canada we spend trillions militarily protecting you. And the won’t even come up to the 2% on defense they lied about participating in. Why should we pay for everything then they want to tax us?? Should America not get something for protection of a country?? Why do we need to pay there bills? Why should we pay for a war we’re not in? Ukrainian war Americans pay?? No! Canada dosent defend themselves Americans pay?? Then when we tax them like they tax us they want to slap a gift horse in the mouth??

What is this guy talking about? Border is secure? Uhh. Ok. ???

Ok, I realize that this is CNN reporting this. I don't like tariffs either. But I would like to hear what went wrong to cause a tariff that had been delayed, to go into effect. I believe any thinking person would like to hear the other side of the story before going crazy over it.

Its funny to me that its ok for you to stick up for canada but you dont agree with our president trump sticking up for american people

Ok, MAGAs, let’s hear your justification for Trump’s unprovoked trade war against our best friends. Please make it make sense.

Ok so when are you actually going to Resign

Lmao. Please Canada dont do it.... No you dont want this, you want a WAR. Ok. Lets go. Send your total 100k troops to defend your funny country... How about Canada spend at least 2% for nato, O wait you cant. Funny

AMERICAN HERE. PLEASE BOYCOTT AMERICAN GOODS, BOYCOTT AND STOP BUYING TESLA, IT IS OK WE KNOW YOU ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING CANADA. I STAND WITH CANADA . AMERICA IS NOW BEING GOVERN WITH A KING AND REPUBLICANS GESTAPO. WE WILL VOTE THEM OUT COME 2026 WE WILL GET THE HOUSE BACK FROM THESE DICTATORS.

Ok Trudeau, if Canada is implementing a tariff as well does that mean Canadian will also stop paying taxes like Trump is doing in the US?

When you see other world leaders and then you see ours, depressing does not begin to cover the situation. It’s OK that DJT doesn’t care about being a laughingstock, but making the U.S. & all its citizenry despised throughout the civilized world… Isn’t that too great a price to pay for one man’s boundless narcissism and hubris? Isn’t it?

He said canada won't back down from a fight ...ok you'll get ypur ass stomped out with a lil pride ????

he spoke English..why explain in English what he said....let people listen and make their own conclusions....ok..I explain...Trump did dummy spit...in english >>lost the ball..game over

Ok wow i usually don't get mad about this stuff but damn if our President isn't a total dumb@ss. To do this to Canada our friend and partner and to pull this crap. WOW You suck Trump.

Wow. Although, Kier Starmer has done ok....I would surely like this guy to be a UK prime minister. In fact. Why not. He's a free agent soon, so see you soon. ?

Ok Trump. Let’s see if your idea will bring back companies to the US. Time will tell.

Ok I need some help understanding this. If it’s a dumb idea for the US then why isn’t it a dumb idea for Canada too? As I understand it, the US tariffs mean things imported from Canada get a few slapped on top and that is paid by Americans, to discourage them from buying Canadians things. Why wouldn’t Canada continue importing US things as before and not put extra fees on top, so they don’t have to find new suppliers and cause disruption? Then it is just America punching itself in the face not both of them.

Its ok that Trudeau called Trump “Donald” because Trump has been disrespectful to our Prime Minister calling him “Governor”

$100 says America will be ok Trudeau

Ok how does that affect the average Canadian

Ok your tariffs on America are 25% our tariffs on you are 25%. Where is the WAR are they both equal that doesn’t mean WAR

OK for you to sell your shit here but yet you don’t allow us to sell our stuff there piss on you. That’s my opinion. I love Canadians but it has to stop and it’s going to. He is not aligning his self with Russia that is a lie watch what you say\nAnd furthermore, you can speak to the American people all you want. We follow our president and don’t threaten us. You’re on your way out the door anyway we will not forget what you did to the truck driver you’re a political pig.\nyou need are 9:02 money we don’t need yours
