Trump said Zelensky was trying to push ww3 and he wasnt wrong. Zalensky is using his donars as attack dogs to make threats. Think about that! The President who is putting his countries best interests first agaisnt the tyrants that have been dictating all of our lives around the world. The problem isn't Trump and Musk, its all the globalists that want to suffocate the planet. The only thing it will take to make you wake up to the delusions, is if you lose all the creature comforts you relish, the status quo has changed and none of you can handle it.

Canada, I am sorry for the acts of Donald J. Trump, who does not speak for me (and I am confident most of the people of the USA). If I could change Trump's actions directly, I would.\nI believe your government is taking the correct actions in response and I do not find fault in that. You are our friends. I/we will suffer from Trump's actions. I am sorry for us all.\nMay God save the free world.\n❤❤❤

This guy is funny at one time; he ran to Trump, and Trump told him to take a hike, and now he's just about to lose his job, and he's acting all brave.

Good luck USA, make America great looser again?? Trump will be one making the money and US poor will go more poorer and Oligarchs will surely take over US.

I think it is time to use all the unused land to grow our vegetation and any thing else that gets planted to use for the Canadian. We do have the brain and the finances to grow our own fruit even if it takes a couple of years for the plants to produce the vegetation to supply the need. We need to manufacture our own goods. It is only one simple issue we will face but it is one we can handle! Oil, gas, car parts and cars...do it here and get some of the unemployed individuals Living on Provincial Checks off their butts and put them to work. (any that can at all} It might just surprise people at how many would have a reason to get up in the morning and the self confidence they need to get rid of the very thing Trump said was killing US people and stop it from coming in from the US! If we are going to tell it lets tell the truth!.

Canadians, thank you for taking this challenge. The only way the U.S. citizens will get through this, is for countries to stand up to Trump. We will suffer, too. Again, thank you.

And now there’s word that Trump might “meet Canada and Mexico” half way and re evaluate the tarrifs. He’s gonna do this because “he’s a fair guy” and the craziness of it is that it’s a crisis he created. It’s like setting houses on fire and taking credit when you put the fire out. I don’t care what Trump’s move is next, I am done with USA. Can not and will not trust them until Tump is gone.

Trump did this so he could say he did it, then take credit for your Canadian efforts for reducing illegal drug trafficking that led up to the numbers quoted in Trudeau speech. Trump is fake President….a wolf in black sheep wool.

My fellow Americans need to wake up with pain. This is great move. This Trump administration is all about revenge and taking profits themselves. They are the true anti-ppl and anti-govt. - from American

Well said. I love the USA, I have relatives who live there and in all the years of a beautiful relationship with the people of America I have never seen this situation. Mr. Trump you seem to want to conquer and divide relationships at any cost, even with people who care about you. You sabotage yourself and those who are loyal to you. I'm not sure if you understand the implications of your decisions. But I will say respectfully, there are no winners in a trade war, nor is it you that has the final say on the worlds outcome. This is God's world not yours and not ours. I'm really disappointed to see American people and Canadians hurting because of whatever the point of all of this means. But Canada is strong and we will stand up for our country. The American people are strong and they were strong before you became the President. Working together, we can take care of each other for our families and our country.

Trump is only interested in isolating America from its allies and, with Putin's assistance, to take complete control.

Time for good people to take a stand against this darkness of Trump, Putin, Vance and Musk!! God is watching and they shall reap what they sow!!\nWe must ALL turn to our Saviour Christ Jesus who is the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but through Him.❤??????????????????????

Trump is trying to weaken our country so he can then hand it over easily to Russia. I will not bow to Russia. Russia, come and try to take this country and find out!!!

So Canada stands with Child traffickers, rapists, murders and drug runners got it. And look at all the communist Americans that take that side. Thank God Trump Won ! Kick all Canadian businesses out of US. Stop all Aid and military funding shut Canada down. Deport all illegals to Canada.

Trudeau and Canada are missing the bigger picture. It is beyond me why these politicians keep taking the bait by addressing these distractions like fentanyl. This has nothing to do with fentanyl. It has everything to do with Trump weakening Canada to seize control over the Northwest Passage per Putin’s instructions.

Okay, so US tariffs are bad and will cause financial trouble for both Americans and Canadians. Won’t Canadian Tariffs do the same thing? Furthermore, Canada will not win a Tariff war with the US. Canada’s response is not rational, nor is it in the best interest of the country. What about working with Trump to understand what it takes to remove all tariffs.

Why did it take Trump to make Canada do obviously easy enforcement on Fentanyl? Shameful.

I could not love this more!!! American, here. Sock it to us!! It's going to take Canada, Mexico, and Europe to force Trump to back down and stop being a b@by @$$ little b!tch!

Why do people think that Donald Trump and Elon Musk are smart. They aren't smart. They hire smart, desperate people. They just have the money. They're stupid themselves. Trump was a bully all his life and his daddy paid his way through school and Elon grew up a little weasel, nerd getting pushed around by everybody, and now he's going to take it out on all of us.

Don't lecture us American' s on a damn thing! U are damn clown & don't speak with such an unworthy sense of self. Anyone who would listen this ignorant fool & worse take anything he says seriously are as stupid as he is. And all u buffoons spewing remedial like this idiot is even pimple on trumps ass! What a embarrassing weak coward! And watch ur damn tome boy when u speak of our president like u are somehow all sudden some tough guy or in his league! Smfh

Donald Trump has a dream of going to war with Canada and Mexico to eventually take over their territory…typical NAZI 1939 mentality????

Take the trumpers alcohol and maybe they will stop supporting Trump

As an American I am aghast at Donald Trump. I hope the world takes us back in 4 years.

Great speech from Justin Trudeau! A real president! Take not, Mr. Trump! This is how you run your country!

Trump is purposefully destroying the USA economy. Ask yourself, what he has to personally gain from doing so! Disconnecting the country from its allies and trading partners and their economies will tank the economy. Again, ask yourself, if you wanted to destroy the economy and the government, what are the steps would you take?

Trump is not with Russia he never said that ,that's you saying that he is trying to make it fair you and other countries been taking advantage of USA for ever. We will survive

US Tariffs are Economics by the creator of Trump University...Prices will go through the roof and 1000's of US businesses go broke and it won't take long

Oh course anti-Conservative, anti-President Trump, Liberal extremist, media outlets, politicians and supporters will paint this as a negative, as wrong, as bad etc. \n\nThey all are against President Trump and will do everything within their power to attack him and anything this administration enforces and support ANYTHING or ANYONE regardless if they are illegal aliens, Liberal politicians that embezzle and launder money to Zelenskyy that has received hundreds of billions of dollars to fight his losing war. \n\nIt’s pretty clear by their actions and reactions they careless about American citizens and are taking their Anti-America tactics to a whole new level.

Canada doesn't seem to understand that we don't need them. We can make everything in america its simple. Thats the route trump is going. Sorry canada but time to take care of yourself. Its sad but canada should be able to take care of it's ppl on its own

Are people _FINALLY_ going to see reality? Trump wants as much discourse as possible. His major plan is to declare a reason for Martial Law, to take complete control of the government/country. As I have said this before, for years, all I received in return is to be called a Russian BOT! Well, guess what? It's going to get much, much worse! And, YES, it's the democrats, also.

Donald Trump has been compromised, he has been bought and paid for by Putin the Russian empire. He has no business being in the oval office let's start the impeachment process now. Donald Trump is cashing in on the American presidency with Russia. I'm sure we'll find out down the road that he's been taking payoffs from the Russian government for a long time. I'm sure Putin's got plenty of dirt on Donnie.

It's about money. Specifically Donald Trump getting as much money as possible from this term. Putin likely told him to make sure to distance America from its allies, so that he can use the USAs military gizmos to expand his mission to take over Ukraine amd any other country he wants. All this in exchange for making him and his cronies filthy rich. Trump keeps dropping clues about the plan. Elon, created Doge to weaken the economy even further so that the USAs assest are devalued and he can officially the US oligarchy. He's been in talks with Putin, we've seen them together. So now this Trump Gold card, is a way in for more oligarchs from Russia specifically to sweep up the remaining industries at a fraction of what they used to be valued. Then the USA will be the western arm of Putins empire. Since he made sure to obliterate all friendly relationships the US had with the western world, the other countries won't do anything to help the US so as to avoid all out war. Trump will then walk off into the sunset as one of the richest, if not the richest, man on earth.

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Trump ask Canada to take care of their border and they refused and that’s why these tariffs have been put in place?

I maybe an ignorant on politics , but what happens when USA , well not USA but the Trump administrations has caused so much damage to the country to the point where other maybe most of his allies start taking responses such as that of Canada , and escalate to the point where perhaps USA lose most of his allies at least important allies such as Canada, the support of the global geopolitics , I Maine that scenario for a moment wouldn't that give Trump an excuse to align even more openly with Putin? I mean why would Trump want that at all who knows but he is certainly aligning with Russia just not openly at least that's what a lot of these decisions he has made recently seem to suggest I mean a lot of the consequences of those decisions and acting really seem to benefit someones agenda and to me a politics ignorant seems to be Putin ... Am I too crazy for thinking and feelings like that???

Sir you are a tru leader...trump take example ?

Much love, Trudeau, don't take Trump's awful actions lying down

Robert De Niro’s statement on Donald is perfect. \n\n “I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly. I see an evil one. Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped. Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them. We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016. The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags. The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse. Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously. So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America: This is our last chance. Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator. And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided. So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls. We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them. Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect. Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity. Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world. Safety for our families. Decency. Let’s welcome them back. We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.””

Americans take note. \nCanada has a small population. It is a trading nation. Canada does not pretend to other countries that it is a friend while behaving in treacherous ways. Your minions and hypocrites, Vice President James David Vance and Senator Lindsey Graham should also take note. \nCanada and the United States have been trading with each other for over 170 years. Circumstances and proximity made Canada rely on trading with its neighbour, the USA. In 2024, 75.9% of Canada's total exports went to the United States. \nWas it convenience or laziness that made it so, or Canadians’ trust in America being a fair partner? \nPresident Donald J Trump, you have insulted Canadians and the whole United States will harvest the consequences. \nYou had negotiated the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) calling USMCA the best deal, and recently you called your deal the worst deal. \nYou can be the Manchurian Candidate as much as you want. You seek to destroy Canada. Go ahead, do your worst. Keep being manipulated by the Putin and Musk of the world. \nThis is the last time you will use this closeness between Canada and the USA to hurt Canada this way. Does not matter how long it will take, Canada will diversify its trading practice to foolproof itself from future fools like you, elected to the oval office. \nNeighbours, Canadians will remain, there is no way of moving Canada to a different place on this planet’s map. Canada may remain an economic partner, but a close friend, you can forget it. \nThere is a motto on the licence plates of vehicles of Québec (in case you might not know Donald, it is a province of Canada, not part of your fantasy 51st state). Since 1978 the motto says: “Je me souviens”. In English it translates into “I remember”. Canadians will remember what America is doing to them.

The dictator TRUMP IS TRYING TO BRAKE CANDA…to try to take over in the future??? Trump is a know-it-all men! Pride precedes a fall?

Trudeau has the full backing of the UK. I pray that the next prime minister takes the same stance as Trudeau. Trump is a dumb tosser who is hell bent on playing Putins fiddle.

I'm an American and support the actions Canadians are taking to secure the border between Canada and the United States. I did not vote for Trump this time but to my disappointment he won the election and now we have to deal with him his administration and the issues he is causing. I only pray we will make it through this.

Putin has trump by the balls. Putin has dirt on trump that’s why trump takes putin’s side.

You go Canada... I'm embarrassed to be an American... Take down trump and his empire

Well if Trump crashes the US economy then like… Liz Truss as prime minister in the UK he should resign as president… which then takes America from out of the frying pan into the fire with president Vance… and if he ever becomes president, I would say world war 3 will be inevitable.

Clearly Donald Trump does not understand the simple concept of Tariffs...when reporters ask him questions he deflects the questions., President Trump is not acting according to the oath he has taken as President. Its obvious this is a revenge trip for all of the legal issues against Trump over the last years,, he is taking it personal and damaging so many critical pillars within the US and its all gonna come down and thats where he thinks he will personally win ie get his revenge.

This is sad but you must understand that the richest man in the world is ruling over America now and Trump merely wants to be included in the Oligarchs that want to take over. Oligarchs once ran the Soviet Union I guess they are trying to figure out how to do this again. An Oligarchy and a democracy cannot coexist. They are in contradiction to each other…

Ohhh y'all Canadian Trudeau want to work with us ..ok then help the USA from having Cartel's from crossing fentanyl n trafficking from your country to our country from the border. You can do that right now then Trump will take off the tariffs on you

I’m so sorry, Canada. Don’t take it personally. trump is insane. Totally crazy! It cannot be reasoned with. I now understand how Hitler got into power.

Mark my words Trump is trying to destabilize the US government and economy so that he can take over as a dictator.

???Now the USA is not a reliable country nor a reliable seller, so Trump is destroying his own country. Besides this crazy tax-tariff thing, now the whole world has seen that Trump has removed the military aid to Ukraine... so the whole world has seen that if you buy weapons to the USA or you use them, the USA will extort you or leave you stranded even in dangerous situations. So now NOBODY is going to buy weapons to the USA, and considering that the American economy massively relies on its military industry, this can cause a huge collapse. Other countries and other markets will step up and take the position of the USA in the market and the world, because other countries are reliable, especially those in Europe and Canada, and the USA is not.
