Sweden is with Canada against us KGB trump?

This is amazing. This prime minster talks as if Canada did nothing wrong and US decided to bully them for no reason. If everything's fine and dandy, we wouldn't have done this. Trump did what he did because of \n\n1. Drug trafficking from north + illegal emigrants\n2. Unfair trade deficit in times when our national debt is unsustainably high. \n\nWhy so high? Because we've been giving Canada SURPLUS for decades. Can't do that no more because we have to save our country now. Don't mischaracterize this move, fools.

The tariffs make sense. Putin does not want Canada and the US to prosper… and Putin has Musk and Trump.

This is the kind of President we need, but definitely don't have one close like this. TRUMP IS AN EVIL BOZO. The fact that we elected him speaks volumes of the dumbing down of America. His followers are idiots. They will suffer from him very soon. His policies are sooooo anti-family, anti-middle class. You Trump voters have brought the devil upon us all.

i am Canadian.....\n\ni am embarrassed by trump and feel for my American brothers..... i want to know what the end game is for trump - if he feels he gonna bully Canada or other nations he has grossly underestimated those that have supported the US through thick and thin...\n\nif his end game is under cutting NATO - he should review history and realize that the only country that ever requested helps officially under NATO was the US which we in Canada offered no questions asked...\n\nall i say to my Amercian brothers, his term is only 4yrs - we will welcome you back into the fold when this nonsense with Trump is over... I just hope that my politicians dont cause any nonsense and toe the line in being professional...

America here. Canada, stay strong. Our government is operated by the corrupted. The WH, GOP Congress, GOP Supreme Court all controlled by the war criminal Putin. Trump and Co. will bury the US. It's all lies and corruption from DC now. Stay strong Canada, Mexico, and China. Trump/GOP Congress is owned by Russia. You saw how Trump deserted the Ukraine to a war criminal. Trump will do the same to you. To the free world.

As an American, I would rather see the US become a 4th territory of Canada, instead of watching our country be destroyed daily by the amateur fascist that a feeble and feckless Attorney General Merrick Garland allowed to escape justice, and to become the 47th president with the help of a psychotic South African billionaire, and 49% percent of our population who is too fucking stupid to NOT worship at the dangly scrotum of trump and putin.

It is so obvious tRump and the republicans want to see the US burn for Putin.

We’ll buy their oil and gas in Europe. Trump has made it clear, he only wants to do business with dictators. We don’t want anything to do with US goods and services. We know Canada stands by its allies.

When a country is divided like we are , everything we do will result in failures to help our society and communities. We are essentially causing the unraveling of our safety, security and way of life. When Trump weakens us and pillages our financial and military systems as he is also isolating us from other democratic nations one of two things happens. Guess what that is?

Trump and his house of clowns have to go! He is setting us up a great fall, guy.

Trump’s goal is to take us and Mexico in submission but it backfired. Go ???????????? Go! I am a proud Canadian and proud of Team Canada! Bravo Canada! Nous sommes de fières canadiens! Nous sommes prêt à survivre les difficultés pour notre identité et notre souveraineté! ????

I feel like to be a Canadian this time, what a leader wow..\n\nIf US lost its alliance... Puttin will finished Us for his breakfast \n\nAmerica will be great again only after Trump understand tha roles and importance of alliance

He's going to turn America into a third world country Trump Elon. They are imbeciles and this is disgusting. This is horrible. They're opening us up for war. They're opening us up for a disaster. People are going to be starving. We're going to be standing in line for potatoes and toilet paper like it's Russia

Canada ?? ?? American minority ? Patriots who VOTED for Democracy and Kamala Harris ?? say ??Trumps?? 79million voter's don't speak for the other 200 million of us.\nWe and the world ? don't need him.? He's a fraudulent business practice con-artist.

Canada: There are plenty of Americans 100% with you and the rest of our allies. These are not my presidents (we apparently have two) and my sincere hope is that they will not only be removed from office very soon, but thereafter tried, prosecuted, and imprisoned for high treason against the United States and for defrauding its people. Those of us not fully brainwashed by the right-wing propaganda apparatus are seething with rage and focused on fast and appropriate justice, however it must be achieved. This criminal behavior masquerading as politics will be punished to the maximum extent of the very laws that are being scoffed at by Trump, Vance, Musk, and the rest of the mafioso GOP. History will correct those that choose to remain in tow to lawlessness and treason, and oligarchic fascism will not hold sway in our nation. Let this moment be a powerful reminder of how fragile democracy is and how vigilant we all must be to preserve it.

I'm teary ? while watching this.\n DONALD TRUMP Why you're doing this to us all? YOU ARE FULL OF GREED. MAY ALL THE WEALTH YOU WANT COMES WITH YOU 6 FEET UNDER.\n .. We CANADIANS will fight until the end. ?? ? ?? ? ?? ?

Just imagine a similar (Trump, Vance and Zelensky) dialogue - but in 1940. \n \nThe Reich is furiously bombing Britain! Churchill flies to Washington for help. and Roosevelt tells him, ‘Sir, your card is dealt. ‘Make a deal with the Führer before it's too late. ‘He's a peace-loving man. I've known him a long time.’ \nTo which Churchill replies: ‘But, Mr President, he's bombing us! My predecessors in 1938 tried to negotiate with him, but you see what happened? He doesn't honour any treaties on principle.’ \nVice President Garne enters the conversation: ‘Churchill, your country is a mess! We and Hitler want peace, and you want war! It's you who are incapable! You disrespect our Oval Office with your demands for support.’ \nRoosevelt adds: ‘Yes, Churchill, you're playing with World War II! Make peace with Hitler immediately, and give us all the resources of your island. By the way, where's your suit?’ \nTo which Churchill replies: ‘I'll wear it after the war.’

Donald Trump uses ridiculous arguments to justify his atrocities: Fentanyl, Ukraine, starting in the war, Ukraine, being disrespectful, the European Union ripping us off.

2018 Trump put tariffs on Canadian lumber and the cost to build a house or any thing requiring lumber went up. House insurance went up as the replacement cost using lumber had gone up. Any business with a relation to lumber had gone up. The US has given itself cancer and cut cancer prevention research. Trump is the unwitting AntiChrist.

The tariffs are about Trump annexing us.

Trump doesn’t care about anyone and anything, not even us Americans. \nHe only care about his pockets and Putin, another idiot

Blame all Trump voters. They put us here. When Trump blatantly said what he was going to do! So we stand with Canada and Non Trump supporters ?

Boycott All US Products and Anything Musk . The EU , Canada , Australia , New Zealand , Japan , Mexico and many more Countries have a combined GDP much greater than the USA . Lets see Trump sell US made Products to Russians with an average monthly wage of Less than $400. US Dollars a Month ?

The only one thing Trump is around for is to make everybody else his minions, that is what he works for to get his kicks from - all the Trump willie show is about that and that is his only card. He doesn't do politics or economics or any of that. He does his 'You Have To Be Minions' willie show, and he does fall out of his pants when people can't be tricked. - That is the one red line he can be identified for. Sure, there is danger as long as the citizens in the U.S. haven't got rid of this cancer cell. It is the modern Adolf Hitler. So make sure to get past him in the shortest time possible - with the smallest damage caused - by any chance. Observation and criticism towards this fascistoid psychopath is surely unavoidable, but it is also what he wants us to do: to spend all our time and attention on him. So let's focus most of our time and effort on building and strengthening what we know that needs to be there instead of this fascist. Improving Unity amongst us. And never bowing to any of the global bullies and fascists. People who can't build on their own turf, communicate their points in a civilised manner, but need to get physically violent instead, militarily, economically, institutionally, at the cost of other people's lives - are not on our agenda. // We will not bow to bully threats - not in our small worlds, and not globally either.

But Trump promised us that this would make America great again..

Trump needs his ass kicked; you should hit us with 40% tariffs, cut off all oil, and build stronger ties with the EU.

Trump is the ONLY ONE for Peace , NDP, Con & Libs are all played by Zelenski's warmongering to stay illegitimately in power since 2020. The country i live in is a Europeen farce. 51st will sound appealing when the Nukes starts blowing up. Look up Donbas's separatist, disposing of them to put guided missiles on the Russian Border and what REALLY started this . GOD DAMN, your ignorance is costing us World War 3 you bumch of imbecilles.

The US administration is a joke. I do not support it . Help your American people Trump …..

Thank you to all the idiots who voted for Trump and put us and the world into this clusterf***.

Trump is purposely going to crash the US economy and enrich himself and others like him from it.

Trump is a criminal and the world's biggest traitor on record. He is not the brains behind it though. It is the rich right wingers like Musk and Putin. The US dies not get shared intelligence anymore because Trump is probably passing info to Putin. He is just a kao dog who would prefer to play golf and get told what to do. Stand firm Canada. The EU is with you and will help in any way it can. I feel the majority of the US is also on your side, and I do not see Trump finishing his term in Washington. I think the people are protesting a lot now, and it is rising!

Trump dividing the US against itself while uniting everyone else against us... as predicted by everyone not under his spell

Thank you Trump you f us again I'm glad I did not vote for him. ?

Trudeau should have told you REPUBLICAN idiots exactly what Dipstick Trump is doing! TRUMP is doing the TARIFF thing to make up for all the TAXCUTS he is giving the RICH (taxcuts which NO average US taxpayer will receive) and now YOU are going to pay more for everything! Just remember, Canadians will still get the same amount of money from the sale, BUT the price to all of YOU will be 25% higher. You MAGA AMERICANS need to have your 2 BRAINCELLS talk to each other instead of complaining about anyone of color, sexual preferences or ideas that are different to yours

As a Retired US Marine, I am in aww, if you are US Military and voted for Trump… as your leader… who has no leadership traits … than you are a traitor and have failed to uphold your oath to the constitution..not to a king or wanna be dictator.. HONOR COURAGE COMMITMENT … SF 1775 ???

MAGA my ass. Where are all the Trump voters saying he will make the economy better? At this point, I hope the world gangs up on the US.

why doesnt' anyone ever bring up all the guns pouring from the US into Canada? why isn't trump held responsible for that? the only mass shooting in my province was due to US guns

Trump's logic is summed up in the first 30 seconds ...\nThe new republican doctrine is simple: threaten our friends and allies, help enemies of the US and dictators ?

Please Canada ….. know that most of us do not agree with dictator Trump. As a veteran and American I am truly ashamed of our Putin loving president. Just know the majority of Americans see you as our friend, don’t believe most American’s support this….. I support Canada and what ever they feel they need to do to fight MAGA and our insane president.

I think Trudeau missed the memo on what reciprocal tariffs mean! By the way we don't need Canadas energy when they Say they're going to so-called turn off the energy to America that means literally nothing five minutes of research will tell you that the United States does not need Canadas energy! Absolute empty threat!\n\nBy the way to anybody in the comments section that doesn't know what they're talking about and just listens to cnn so far these tariffs have secured 1.7 trillion US dollars in just three months brought manufacturing back to the United States honda is now leaving their location in Canada and building in the United States same with American car manufacturers in Mexico. \n\nWe won and I find this so funny you guys are flipping out we have socalled Americans joining Canada's side just because they're anti Trump. absolute clowns!

I am embarrassed to be a citizen of the United States now. It’s disgusting how we have allowed a completely unqualified and morally corrupt individual to become our President once again. What has happened to our country? We used to care about each other and our individual rights. We were willing to fight for the weak and help others around the world. We soon will be isolated as our allies turn their backs on us. Is that when Trump will join hands with Russia and China to create a communist block of power?

An ex-KGB chief: “In 1987 I worked in… the KGB of the USSR in Moscow… our department recruited the 40 year-old businessman from the USA, Donald Trump, nicknamed “Krasnov”. That’s when Trump starts buying full-page ads attacking NATO. “Putin is doing a great job of outsmarting our country.” He says. Steele report: Russian operatives gathered damaging video evidence of perverted sex acts of presidential candidate in 2013, for blackmail. Mueller said “There were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election.” Trump campaign had more than 140 contacts with Russian operatives, and Trump attempted to obstruct justice at least ten times. Campaign chair lied about then finally admitted to sharing info with Russian spy. Trump, ignoring US intelligence said: “…Putin, he just said it wasn’t Russia. I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be.” Secret meeting in Trump Tower with Russkies. Jared attempts to set up secret back channel to Russia in the Russian embassy. Trump to NATO member on prospect of Russian attack on their country “In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.” Trump: “If Putin likes Donald Trump… That’s called an asset…” Yeah, a Russian asset. FBI chief Kash Patel was paid $25,000 to appear in anti-FBI video by Russian backers. “The love in the air, I’ve never seen anything like it” Trump said of January 6 rioters, some of them cop-killers… “Russia if you’re listening…” “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily…” Yes, they own a seditious, treasonous felonious American president. All allegedly…

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, what is happening in America under Trump is catastrophic! He is not only destroying our relationships with allies like Canada, he is destroying every facet of our government agencies that he can. Trump is Hitler 2.0 and as an American, I am resolved to fight back! I am not alone, 81% of us are angry at what we see happening. It feels like we are watching Pearl Harbor’s attack, only instead of this attack being from a foreign country, it’s being done by our own President whose target is America, her people and our world allies. \nWe are sorry for how he is hurting you. I don’t know how we will stop him, but I can assure you we will!

Trump uniting people around the world - against us.

Respects to Canada. The Tariffs will kill everbody in US and the trade war is beginning. Russia and China laughs about the AMERICANS have fun in future wirh your criminal Clown Name Donald Trump.

Thank you for sending us this speech. I wholeheartedly agree and support you! As an American, 81 year old woman, I have never seen such a terrible president. Mr trump has always dreamed of being a dictator Never have I been so disgusted in my life. I, did, not vote for this person that I hate with all my being. I hope someone fixes this before I die of being sick of him! He is not only against most of the world, he is also against the people that he is supposed to protect!

Idiots won a political contest often feel revolutionary and decide to export it to other countries. Maoism, Leninism, Islamic Rev in Iran.. now Trump and Vance think they must correct EU and Canada and elsewhere as they think they are correcting US.

PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU - WHAT A REAL LEADER LOOKS LIKE. The big difference between Canada and the US is that the Canadian gov will be there to support it's people during this time and our White House will do NOTHING to help Americans -as a matter of fact they will treat us worse. TRUMP DID THIS - TRUMP HAS TO GO - before we lose everything we have worked for for over 200 years!!!

Trudeau, please invade the USA and rescue us from Trump.
