I'm American and I didn't vote for Trump. He needs to be impeached and removed from office.

First of all, let's be clear, it is TRUMP doing this, NOT America. NOT American citizens! It is unfortunate that FOOLS re-elected him!! Now, we are ALL feeling the stupidity of HIS actions!! America plz, WAKE UP!!!

Trump is a disgrace and a very ignorant man and all Americans should be ashamed that he represents you

The fact the Canada is g9nna help their citizens thru this tariff war yet Trump is not doing anything close to helping American citizens, shows that Trump doesn't give a shit about anyone. Trump just opened a more profitable business route between Mexico and Canada.

It is time to understand Trump only exposes pretext that aren't really his concerned he just want to have an excuse to do what he wants to do and this is grabbing some resources punching external allies etcetera it is time to understand that nothing will please Donald Trump government so it is time to bypass America this is very sad for some of us that have made business with American businesses and companies it is not easy it is not good to overnight rethink everything because of that guy in the White House

Trump doesn't care... if his plan works .. Many poor Americans will die but the rich will flurish... this is what him and Elon want

Luxembourg here. F*** Trump and his cronies. Americans ! Those of you who disagree need to go to the streets !! Now and massively.

I am an American and Canada I don’t want this either. But you need to do what needs to be done and I support that!! You go Canada! I did not vote for Trump, and I want Trump to fail, because if he doesn’t, I will lose my right to vote. Trump has never been held accountable for his actions! He needs to be arrested for treason and terrorism.

Trump is turning America into a fascist government destroying the middle an lower class.The tariffs will starve alot of Americans, cutting all programs that help people will be devastating. Elections dont matter anymore Musk an starlink has fixed that. His goal is to mirror Russia an all fascist governments. He's turning Russia enemies into US enemies.

As an American I agree with Canada. Trump is out of his mind hope we impeach him Fast. Pray for us.

Yes, do what you need to do. Many Americans (including myself) stand with Canada. ? Donald Trump is a fool and is incompetent.

I’m American. Never voted for the MAGA party - it’s all too obvious. Sickening by the way Zelenskyy was treated in our White House - TRump and Vance looked primitive and devolved when they desperately tried to look “strong”. We stand with democracy.

We understand it's not your fault. As a us 16 year Army National Guard Veteran. I approve this message and agree 100% with. TRUMP WATCH ⌚️. Trump as turned against the American and our friends. We want you out of the White House. No one voted for this.

Americans better start boning up on their Russian. Trump is gonna get in bed with dictators and shut out his allies.

Trump killed All Americans freedoms today Trump has alined himself with Putin Stand up all Americans don't give a fist pump to Trump as he hands us all to Putin and Elon regeim Soviet rule If you have travel plans Americans are not welcome around the world Pay attention

Tens of millions of Americans are 100% in support of Canada and 100% against Trump, Vance and their ugly MAGA crowd!!!\n\nGO CANADA!!!

The proud American heritage of my family is now besmirched by Donald Trump. He has fouled our dignity. He has deeply threatened our future.

As an American who was born here and live here for over 50 years, I am so ashamed of this government, the republican politicians and some of the democratic politicians. The MAGA cult is overwhelming our everyday lives in combination with Trump, Vance and Musk vast amounts of lies, deceit, disrespect for the low-middle class American families, cozying up to the fascist dictator Putin, turning your back on our best ally Canada by instigating these ridiculous tariffs, and a whole host of other atrocities that have occurred in the past few weeks. Let this sink in... in the past few weeks! What is it going to be like in a few months or by the end of this term? With the way it's going, we're going to be damned lucky that we're going to be here at all, otherwise Trump and Putin can rule over a nuclear decimated scorched earth. Americans that are already sick, tired and completely fed up with all of the grandiose shit-storm actions coming out of the White House, please do what you absolutely can to shout from the rooftops, we will not concede, we will not bow down and kiss the ring, we will not be bullied and we will not stand idly by and watch a narcissistic, misogynistic, blow-hard dictator-loving(Putin), felonious bully and all his butt-munching fuck-tard cronies burn this country to the ground. RESISTANCE!

Do the simple math who is trump siding with Putin so all Americans need to brush up on your Russian

Dear Prime Minister Trudeau,\nI am an American living in America. You are doing the right thing. You are taking a stand against an ignorant, hateful, facist. Most Americans know that Trump does not care what happens to us, to our country, or to our Constitution.

I have been speaking out about the dumbness of Americans. Also Trump is a narcissist dumb ass.

This is all convicted criminal Trump’s fault! Most Americans are against these tariffs and want Trump and Musk out of our government!

At least Trump doesn't freeze the bank accounts of Americans who protest his policies, YOU COMMUNIST!!!

American here who voted against Trump in 2020 and 2024… I’m so sorry on behalf of my country. Dark times are truly ahead.

American people will suffer unfortunately now. Trump is out of control!

Question Americans and Press how Rich more rich will Trump be and is he aligning himself when he is DONE BEING PRESIDENT?! He is taking over companies and communities for Himself while using a USA badge as President. This is not Well and it is the SECOND MONTH OF THE YEAR WE HAVE 3&3/4 years left wow Jesus!!

The Mystery of what it’s all about was revealed the first week of the trump government!.. he wants Canada and Greenland as states. So he’s trying to weaken Canada and Europe from defending those territories.\nHis left hand is distracting u with tariffs and Putin, his right hand is advertising to ‘liberate’ Canada and Greenland!\nTrump has nothing to lose, he is literally beyond the average life expectancy of an American right now. He is trying to go for his vision of bigger empires

Why do you just not get it? Everything Trump does is for the benefit of Putin. Trump is a Russian Asset! Clear and simple. The americans have voted for a president who is working for Putin. DOH!!

I support Canada ??! Trump is destroying everything like he did with his casinos. How will any of this make America Great? It doesn’t. And Republicans are equally responsible for ALL that is happening. Do they honestly think we Americans will accept what is happening? Think again. We have the ballot box and will use it.

Not all American stand with Trump!! We love Canada and Trudeau.

Trump has an agenda, and it is to destroy America and the American people. Trump and Putin are in this together. Congress stop sitting on your hands and do the job you were voted to do, remove trump from power!

As an American, I also stand with Canada, Europe, and Ukraine. I don't want this either and I apologize. Trump, the convicted felon, rapist, pathological lier and conman is a shameful stain on our country.

Trump needs to look at his own country’s fentanyl problem because America wouldn’t be having a fentanyl problem if America didn’t have the demand for the drug!!\nGood luck Trump…Hope you figure it out because America is the one that is demanding the drug and if Americans want it they usually find a way to get it…?..?

As an American born Ukrainian, we stand with Canada, who continues. Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and JD Vance are very EVIL and VILE human beings. THESE 3 CRIMINALS ARE Taking the USA INTO MANY DIFFICULT SITUATIONS. Getting back in to being buddy buddy again with THE WORLDS BIGGEST CRIMINAL AND DICTATOR PUTIN, IS GOING TO BE A BIG ISSUE for Americans. Many have innocent children and civilians have been MURDERED in Ukraine by Putin. Even as we tried several times to talk peace though Putin has proven that he wants NOTHING TO DO WITH A CEASEFIRE AND PEACE!!! TRUMP SHOULD BE IN PRISON LIKE THE CRIMINAL THAT HE IS!!!!

Put trump and the GOP in prison! Save American democracy. \n\nTexas stands with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, and Europe.

You Americans really need to get over yourselves. That was not harsh language, that was very measured and direct. Trump berated Canada with nasty language. If you want hash language, then we would tell you to F off and go and play with you puppet master, Putin.

Greetings from UK, we are with you Canada. God bless you and the people who didn't vote for Trump. For those who did, who is responsible for all this un-American chaos? Utterly shameful, the world knew what a person Trump was, those of you who voted for him, you should have known better. May God help you in these trying times. Canada you have our support from the UK.

Finland stands with Canada. Ordinary American citizens will pay the tariffs imposed by Trump as increased prices in stores and inflation will start to rise in the United States.

Trump is lying to the American people like he always has and does, the man can not tell the truth. The American people are sincerely sorry.

I'm not American. I grew up hearing lots of hate bout USA cuz the US doesn't exactly have a good rep in foreign policies - always bullying other nations, starting wars for oil etc. but I've always preferred USA not just for the world order it brings, it allows different voices, criticism & scolding towards its leaders compared to China, Russia & North Korea. \n\nin the US, you can talk bad bout politicians in power, or probably make movies bout these kind of things like US invading other countries for oil, or testing out some cruel AI military robots on humans (movie name: Monsters of Man), & you won't be persecuted. but after looking at a bunch of executive orders Trump has signed, the way he (& JD Vance) treated Zelenski & Canada, I don't know if I still feel the same bout USA anymore.\n\nif USA doesn't wanna continue spending on Ukraine, perhaps USA shouldn't have sweet talked Ukraine into denuclearization thru the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. that's what you get for mendling with other countries' affairs. by stopping US aid & wanting a new mineral deal, Trump's refusing to follow the Memorandum (I added this sentence thru edit as I can't reply to the comment below).\n\nunderstandably, US & UK don't need to deploy troops in Ukraine as the security assurance in the memorandum wasn't clearly defined, but it also didn't mention that Ukraine should pay the US back financially, nor any mineral concessions. \n\nTrump always wanting a purely 1 sided deal will only isolate USA from more allies.

Trudeau is a leader. Trump is a follower of Putin. I'm so sorry, Canada. This isn't what most Americans want. Trump is a shame, and he won't last.

Trump and Putin both want and need Canada for the simple reason of the Arctic melts. Ships can now travel that pass. Trump is known, and I'm surprised the media doesn't bring it up, to have financial ties to Russia as an American citizen even well before 2016. What kind of blackmail from Russia would make Trump totally sell out his country.

Trump is a coward. So, so cowardly. I am a conservative American, but I stand against maga and Trump.

We love you ?? ?, my apologies from us American people, we dont want trump and his clowns in office. God biess you all with love and hugs from your American people. We love you Justin. ???

@robertedward7023 \n\nServing the country doesn’t mean that you’re right. President Trump was not bullying Zelensky but Zelensky was disrespectful to our President. “You have nice oceans so you don’t feel it now but in the future you will feel it “ is what Zelenskyy stated. How can you speak against your President who has done nothing but look out for Americans to defend someone who would be so disrespectful to our country. Zelensky also stated that Americans will bleed for his country. Why would anyone defend this blatant hatred. President Trump has tried to give Zelensky what he needs not what he wants. All of these countries gather together to rally against POTUS because he won’t allow them to financially enslave Americans and use America as a personal piggy bank. Every single American who loves this country should have President Trumps back.

Donald Trump started a trade war with other countries and we the people have nothing to do with it. Donald Trump needs to be removed with the 25th Amendment immediately. Americans will not condone Donald Trump or Russia. We do not stand with them, we stand with our allies against the pig face dictator Donald Trump?❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

That government had a somewhat level deficit UNTILL TRUMP AGAIN. This time the +3% growth that was there for him to start either is ALREADY at a -2%. Americans… that means your country is going to LOOSE MONEY IN THE FIRST QUARTER!!!\nThat’s a 5% drop!! That’s depression drop in what is “the best ever”, “the most healthy economy ever seen before” blah blah blah!! \nHe is starting the third world war and it will happen if y’all continue to take the lawlessness and bullshit\nNo one will survive two years, we won’t make it untill midterms!! Please someone take care if private bone spurs and his Bunions!!!\nI Am Canadian ??????

The Americans people are going to raise up, Trump is going to declare marshal law, and then he's not going to step down, then you will be under a communist dictatorship.

President Trudeau-I’m an American. We live paycheck to paycheck. We didn’t vote for Trump & the GOP. The Republican Party has been doing everything it can to destroy America & the hard working people that keep it running, for years. They’ve finally succeeded. It’s an evil party, filled with vile,malicious assholes. But even though we won’t be able to afford many more things anymore, I greatly admire & appreciate you & your country standing up to Trump. If only more of our own ppl would have done that, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

Eveything that Trump is doing has Putin written all over it. Everything that Russia could benefit from is being executed by the President of The USA. We really are witnessing the beginning of a dark chapter in American and world history. Trump is destroying (deliberately) crucial historical alliances that have benefitted the US itself. It really is mind-blowing stuff.
