Fuck around and find out Trudeau!

People in Canada need to wake up and find themselves a Trump

I come from a long line of Canadian’s, I’m not a fan of Trudeau but I have to say he made me proud today standing up to the school yard bully. I know most Americans don’t support what Trump is doing because as Canadian and Americans we are decent hard working people who don’t need a government that doesn’t speak for the people God bless us all the world needs to find a way for peace our children and grandchildren deserve better.

As a American I find the actions of Vladimir Trump absolutely disgusting! I didn't vote for that scumbag! I live right across the st Lawrence river from Canada and I love that country as well!!!

Does this dude know fentanyl is used in every hospital and serves a legitimate medical purpose ? he’s so far up his ass it’s hard to find his intellect

Bravo CANADA. Greetings from Europe! Hope you find an interesting markets in remaining parts of the World.

As a Canadian, even though I have disagreements with our Prime Minister, he is OUR Prime Minister, and I am glad he is so clearly and strongly saying to the US government and US citizens that we are done playing around. We will pull together, as a country, and come out of this stronger. We are willing to take on short-temp pain to work towards finding new markets and diversifying our trade relationships. The Canadian economy is in a stronger position to survive and recover from a trade war than the US. The US Government in general has destroyed one of the most successful and positive economic and social partnerships in the world and neither Canadians, nor the rest of the world are going to forgive and forget.

Trudeau is on his way out. Canadian need to find somebody else to lead. He is so incompetent.

I would've loved for canada to go full petty and make their border patrols start whistling and turning around whenever they find fentanyl on its way to the US :D

The only reason Donny is siding with the russians is because putin and his people have something on Donny and Donny Trump doesn't want it to come out because its going to be truly embarassing for Donny, his family and the american people. Mark my words we'll all find out someday.\nReally. They probably have video tape of him

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

Revelation 18:9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,\n10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.\n11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:\n12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,\n13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.\n14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.\n15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,\n16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!\n17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,\n18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!\n19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

As an American, I respect Canada as a friend and neighbor. I stand with Canada and not the crybaby in the white house. Trump and his administration needs to be removed from office immediately. Trump voters are about to be in the find out phase.... Do you think they will storm the White House again? Something has to change... How can no one stand up to Trump...

Donny F'd around with tariffs against Canada,now,he's getting ready to find out,the hard way.

Does this dude know fentanyl is used in every hospital and serves a legitimate medical purpose ? he’s so far up his ass it’s hard to find his intellect

Look at the Canadian PM. Then look at the US president, gross. Hey Americans can't you guys find someone more suitable? How did the US ended up in this lousy situation with such a disgusting dishonorable douche?

I think Americans are going to have to learn the hard way that we voted in a terrible man who is even more unrestrained than the first time. The best outcome of this lose-lose situation for Republican voters is to feel the financial pain of Trump's actions. Maybe it can disillusion his cult following of heedlessly surrendering their voting power to him. With enough opposition pressured on Republicans in Congress, they may finally find a backbone and stand up for all Americans while the Democrats twiddle their thumbs.

North Carolinian American here. I am ashamed of our country pushing our allies away. What I and many others want to let our allies know is that we support them. Our country is getting closer to isolationism, and it isn't good if we want inflation and prices to go down. History has shown us what happened to our country when we were isolated, and it brought economic devastation throughout the country. I hope that it isn't severe, but I predict that our president, and the Republican Party that controls the legislature and the Supreme Court will definitely cripple the economy, and will find a way to blame the party, where they are not in control.

He called him just Donald!!!!!? I find this side of Canada ?? sexy!!!!

I wish europeans would find such strong words. We need to stand up together

An excellent speech, truthful, powerful and to the point. As for the fentynol, well, not matter what you do, and no matter how much you spend, the CIA will still find a way to sneak it into the States just like they did with the cocaine epidemic THEY started in the 80s.

I think the world of good and democratic people should join together against this tyrannical autocratic and completely lying government of the USA find other trade and manufacturing partners- mineral rights of Ukraine to Canada and Europe…. This mr. trump is ruining our lives - and of course - I did not vote for him….

Well, Wolff I spent my summers working my summerjob either sticking labels on frozen turkeys in a giant fridge or putting alloy rims through a sandblaster. But yes MAGA MOFOs gonna find out now.

The USA is officially the stupidest country on record. Donald Trump is dumber than d***hit. All his cabinet picks are crazier than he is and half are just criminals. Trump and Musk are criminals. Pam Bionde dropoed charges against Trump for a measly $5000.00 campaign donation. Little Marco Rubio only agrees with any stupid thing Leon Musk wants. I hope your men have mastered your new German tanks PM Trudeau. I am against any war Drumpf could think of. We need to go to Ukraine and talk to Putin tank to tank. Putin is a tiresome little man. Why do you think Trump fears him so much? Find the answer to that question. Thanks PM Trudeau. No thanks to any GOP pig in the USA.

How was he crying at first but now talking boldly. Where did he find his balls!?

I find this speech has caused me to re-evaluate Justine Trudeau - he has become the statesman we always hoped he could be and he stated clearly Canada will retaliate for this incomprehensible attack on the greatest trading partner the US has.

❌ everything goes down to money right?, I think cryptos will play a big roll in finding a bypass to all this mess..

America is now at the “find out” stage

I have to I’m happy to see him actual find his federal spine!!! This speech was clear, constructive, professional and one that I can back! I’m willing to put up with the pain for the sake of our pride! He needs now to actually follow up with firm action, both in tariffs,reducing electricity, natural gas, oil as well as giving support to those Canadians who will need them,

Like I've said before or two other blogs, this man should not be up there addressing CNN or any other network or any population. Whether it be Canadian or American. He has no right to be there. He is not the prime minister of this country anymore. He has no right to be making policies or to be imposing tariffs or doing anything else of the sort. Furthermore, he is also politically, unsavvy and ignorant. He in his running the mouth speech this afternoon. Insulted Donald Trump again by calling him dumb. I'm telling you that will not go very well with Mr. Trump and I wouldn't be surprised to see additional tariff percentage increased on the 25% already in place. Justin Trudeau is not a prime minister. He is a thug, an absolute idiot, a moron and any other adjective that you can find to describe someone who is totally and completely incompetent and incapable of implementing policy or running a country.

‪You need to find yourself a professional trader, stay off screen and make money. Not everyone trying to make a benefitting change is a scam. if you hold a stock for over a year before selling it, the profit may be taxed at a lower rate than income from wages or business ‬

I love listening to Canada bashing us. I find it to be soothing. Maybe it's just the voice of sanity we are not hearing from our own politicians.

I support the USA. The tariffs will hurt Canada and Mexico far more than the USA. In 2023 - 76% of Canada's exports were shipped to the US. That is 19% of their total GDP. Mexico exported 78% of its exports to the US, which is 37% of its GDP. US exports to Canada & Mexico combined were only 2.7%. Both countries will need to find other buyers or capitulate. No wonder Trudeau is screaming like a stray dog hit by a rock.

Respect from Australia, this is exactly what Canada should do, stand up to this bully. I don't think you should bother trying to negotiate with him, Trump is a liar and a fool and talking to him is a waste of time, he's too stupid to understand. When the US slaps you, slap them back. I sincerely hope to see Mexico respond in the same way, slap Trump back twice as hard.\n\nIf the US wants to go kissing Putins ass, go on, but don't try to force the rest of us to kiss his ass with you.\nIf the US wants to find savings in government #DefundElonMusk a filthy rich man receiving government aid, he's sucked up $38 billion, that's government waste in the extreme.

Before everyone loses their mind over the grandstanding on either side… They should take some time to research the import/export world. If Trudeau thought he had the upper hand in this, he would have dropped the hammer. He doesn’t. The US economy will find a workaround before the 21 days are up, and Canada will have even less of a leg to stand on.

Can we find

The speech of Mr Trudeau, the way Canadians have shown solidarity for one another, today it all puts my country, The US, to shame. I am ashamed of what my government is doing and I am disgusted with the people doing it. In Mr Trump’s first term, as eclipsed as they were by the many many many actions and attitudes he imposed on us that embarrassed and hurt us as a country, there was the rare occasional decision I could at least understand even if I did not support it. Since taking office literally not one thing he has done has made sense to me as an American. I can only say how sorry I am for what the country I love is being used to do to you all, especially our closest allies and friends and in particular the people of Canada today. I grew up in Commerce Twp Michigan. I visited Canada regularly and, even as crime from Detroit poured across the border into Canada, Canadians always treated us with respect and welcome. I never imagined that would stop but now I find it hard to imagine how it might continue and it breaks my heart.

If you acted as a leader of Canada, instead of focusing on destroying Canada's economy, and you allowing millions of illegal immigrants so they can vote for you, none of this would have happened. You better find the way to work it out with Trump because Canada has a lot more to loose.

As a Canadian my personal politics may not always be in line with other citizens of the world, however I can respectfully agree to disagree, allowing more dialogue and discussion to continue in order to reach an agreeable compromise to find the best winning formula for all concerned. \nI have watched and listened to many American politicians from John F Kennedy to Joe Bidden, to leaders like Marin Luther King, Malcolm X, Bernie Saunders, all have something in common, respect, decorum, world knowledge, integrity, truth, honesty, honour, and heart. \nStrength is when you are able to reach out to lift someone up not to knock them down. Even the greatest professional boxers know the difference of being humble and kind when there advisory is in trouble. \nFor the first time in the history of your country you have a bully, narcissist and pathological liar, who is vulgar and unpolished as a man, father and as the President of your nation.\nI have seen our own Canadian leaders, make mistakes, stumble and fail, however they displayed grace and admitted to their shortcomings.\nI have never seen a world leader be obsessed with things such as plastic straws, pennies, flushing toilets, Hannibal Lecter, Arnold Palmer's manhood, a leader who's completely obsessed with selling souvenir and bubbles while his citizens are homeless, hungry, jobless, with runaway inflation so that something as simple as a dozen eggs are now a luxury item. \n\nYou have a president who spends millions of dollars so that he can play golf at one of his own properties, meanwhile his country is neglected. \nA brief look at his past record the pandemic under his watchful eye would have you drink bleach as a cure as many died and billionaires increased their combined wealth by trillions of dollars while the middle class and poor suffered. \nThe opioid crisis was settled under his watch which let Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family avoid jail time for committing the death and destruction of millions of lives in America. Yet Donald Trump is obsessed with the drug cartels in other countries yet he overlooks those terrorist in his own country. Is it because they are billionaires and potential cronies of his?\nRather than be completely obsessed with tariffs and creating the next disaster with his Trump Gaza Holocaust Resort, Your leader could be looking at fixing the country's infrastructure of roads, brides, tunnels, ensuring a healthy supply of drinking water, rail, housing for the homeless, affordable health care, affordable education, etc.\n\nDonald Trump is surrounded by his clowns is not just making a mockery of your country but is leading you into a very dark hole. \nThe shame and humiliation that Donald Trump has brought to your country since his inauguration will take years to correct if he is stopped now. If you the American people wait four years, WW Three will be here and it will take centuries to recover. \nTHE FUTURE IS NOW, NOT IN FOUR YEARS. AS AMERICANS YOU MUST BE WILLING TO ENSURE A TOMORROW FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.... UNDER THE CURRENT REGIME YOU ARE HEADED TO A DEAD END.

I will take Trudeau's words anyday. Try crossing the Canadian Border with illegal stuff and you will find out.

I’ve never met one single Canadian that I didn’t find kind and respectful. Canada, I am embarrassed of our government’s actions and I stand with you!??

I used to think that the idea that Trump is a Russian asset was just a conspiracy theory. I am not sure of that now as how else to you explain why Trump is doing everything he can to undermine the USA? Why else would you cause a breech between the US and our allies Canada and Mexico? Why else would he destroy the infrastructure of our country through Musk and Doge? Why else would you stop all aid to Ukraine? Why would you stop cyber operations targeting Russia? Why would he set up an operation to humiliate the leader of an allied country fighting for its life against Russian aggression? Why would you send your vice president to Germany and have him insult our allies and not meet with the leadership of the country but rather meet with the essentially neo-Nazi Alternative for Germany? None of this--and many other actions--makes sense unless you begin to understand that Trump is actively trying to weaken our country to the benefit of the Russians. I know it is hard to believe but I can find no other explanation.

I'm so jealous of Canada rn. They have a competent leader. This is insane that tRump keeps attacking our ALLIES AND SIDING WITH FCKIN RUSSIA AND NORTH KOREA!! I'm disgusted at the people who voted for this bafoon and our government and the Republicans who won't find a damn backbone and save our country from this evil pos. I can't be mad at Trudeau or Canada, were fully in the wrong. & The way he's placating trump at the end is hilarious cause he knows being fully honest will make trump the pentulent toddler have a big tantrum. Someone help us. Y'all just couldn't let Kamala win. We would be in much better hands. Y'all suck. As an American I absolutely stand w Canada! Trump is wrong!!!

What he means to say is 1% gets caught at the boarder if you don’t find it that number could be much much higher. Which is proven how bad our boarders were, so catching 1% without the massive boarder plan means there’s much much more than that

Hmm,I looked at many of the comments,could not find much if any,support for Trump.\nStrange...

No worries, we are preparing and ready for anything, Canada will step up and stand up, and we will find better friends and allies and economic partners. Our society has more in common with many other countries than the US.

I see a LOT of emotions here in the comments from people who like to tout where they're from for some really weird reason. I imagine to represent the soap box they stand upon. I find it ironic people are giving underhanded insults to Donald Trump by comparing how Trudeau speaks, yet I can almost guarantee those same people brag about how they refuse to listen to a word Donald Trump says. So its a really silly way to try to insult someone. Also just checked some of my stocks daily returns. Up over 2%. So he was wrong within the first 10 minutes. I suspect the market will become more bullish as some of the companies that have made deals to create factories in the US complete them and start churning out products made locally.

Canada is a great nation ❤....A good ally is hard to find. American must not lose one.
