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.

With all due respect, Trudeau is a JOKE. He is out due to screwing with our economy. He is looking Good at the moment due to Trump (lets be honest even putin looking better than trump right now). That being said Tradeau is gone! We will have a conservative government that is going tougher on USA if this continues. \n\nI rather due buisines with USA and mexico, then take it to China, russia or any other country.

Sorry to our neighbors. Feels shameful to be a US citizen at the moment. Hopefully, this too shall pass.

Donald probably hasn't stepped foot in a grocery store in his life. The MASSIVE inflation on commercial goods is a TAX disguised as a tariff. He knows it'll cost Americans. \n\nHowever, moment millions of people in the US begin losing jobs and begin rioting, he may pay attention.\nHow Americans aren't protesting in the streets right now is mind boggling to me.

Trudeau has risen to the moment. So glad he is our PM in this moment

He screwed up.the moment he said Donald. It doesn't play to Trump's ego. Other than that it was a great speech

I’m damn proud to be Canadian and even prouder of our Prime Minister. A truly stunning and historic moment.??

Trudeau's moment in history!

I can't believe it hasn't retired yet... He just has to make the moment about himself lol

Trump has been under Putin's control even before his first term, doing exactly what Putin wants from him at the moment. That's the only reason. Maybe he fell into a honeytrap or there’s other compromising material the Russians have on him that they could use to blackmail him. He’s a narcissist, which fits perfectly with this. Anything else doesn’t make sense....or why is he only attacking allies and licking Putins butt?

From the moment that US citizens understand that Trump only respect one friend (Putin) \nmaybe, that moment you will start to react

He did exactly what I thought he was going to do the tariffs are targeting American farmers and food production we sell America 80 percent of our potash. I mean buckle up America your food is about to get a lot more expensive from the moment it starts growing till you buy it.

A real leader, not like the coward we have in the Oval Office at this moment (loser)!

There is a moment fast approaching when we have to recognize Trump's actions for what they are: intentional sabotage.

Canada will be implementing 25% tariffs against $155 billion worth of American goods, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a press conference Tuesday. \n \nSpeaking from Ottawa, Trudeau said there was “absolutely no justification or need whatsoever” for the tariffs imposed by the US on Canada, which went into effect today. \n \nThe prime minister explained that $30 billion worth of US goods would see tariffs immediately, while the remaining $125 billion worth of goods would see tariffs in 21 days. \n \nTrudeau added that Canada will file claims at the World Trade Organization, but in the meantime, “our tariffs will remain in place until the US tariffs are withdrawn and not a moment sooner.” \n \nThe prime minister also again hit back against US assertions about Canada being unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl. \n \nHe said the legal pretext Trump presented for the justification of the tariffs —“that Canada is apparently unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl” — is “totally false.”

A thought experiment:\nImagine that the Canadian government was given a magic technology that could build five million new homes overnight and assign them by lottery to people who didn't currently own a home.\nWould the government push the button to build the homes and give them to people who needed a home?\nNope. It would not.\nWhy?\nBecause the price of existing houses and apartments in Canada would drop by at least 50% overnight. And in our new, insane, everything-is-financialized, asset-prices-are-the-most-important-thing world, that would be deemed unacceptable.\nJust chew on that for a moment: we have a society, an economy, a governing and property owning class, that would prefer to forego the incredible quality of life increases for the population of magicking 5 million homes into existence, than to lose the valuations of a resource that is so scarce that demand grossly outstrips supply.\nWe live in a world of utter madness.

Perfect response to this bias question. Hope the reporter learns from his response. This was a teaching moment for her.

The better majority of new york state prison workers are currently on strike for safer working conditions at the moment. Are you going to cover the story? The governor failed these members of the community

Sad moment country has been being replaced out from under are feet ,

Canada is a global hub of terrorism now. US never had friendly neighbors …just greedy ones . The moment US shuts the flow of aid money, they become terror hubs. A way of blackmailing.

South American woman I know >her mother and grandmother came in the 70s or 80s > her grandmother is citizen and voted for Drump even though her daughter is undocumented at the moment > both the daughter and grandmother said that she should have gotten her paperwork done…. Not nice people - HRC was correct

I ?? went to school in U.S. & lived there for a brief moment in time afterward. Couldnt leave fast enough just didnt care for it, other than the cheap booze & made some great friends. ???\nThe U.S has a great divide of either rich or poor. \nIn Canada majority are middle class which i really appreciate. I have many great friends & relatives in America my grandnfather was American & moved to Canada he said he didnt like the American way of life whatever that meant IDK. Im grateful for having the privilege being born & rased here....\nGood luck to both Americans & Canadians to find a way to escape these dictators we are all oppressed by!!!\n ?????

Well the land that the Palestinians are in at this moment... is not their actual land. Look at the history and go way back.

I'm all for legal immigration but I don't think the US can handle any more people at the moment. I don't know about anyone else, but it's been brutal for me personally to find a job for a couple of months just to get by until my other job is good to go for the season. I've never had to claim unemployment (I always found another job within a week or two), and I've been suffering for the past 6 months. I'm more than qualified for some of the applications I have filled out, but yet I feel like just because I'm a white woman, I get skipped over. I've applied to around 50-70 jobs and only had 2 interviews. Thankfully, I still live at home, but if i didn't, I'd be wayyy more screwed. I believe America needs to take care of it's legal citizens first, then we can worry about others.

This is the happiest moment I have seen in my entire life.

Shamefull moment has a Indian ?

YOU GUYS LET NAZIS GET THE POWER IN USA. Y'ALL KNOW WHAT YOU DID? \n \nThe USA external, environment and climate policy will destroy our planet, we need to stop Trump right now ! \n \nResistance to the nazis! Marvel reported this moment in Captain America 2. \n \nThe only way to save America from the nazi-fascist regime is all people over the world stop buying products and services made in USA. \nIt is a drastic measure but it will put the regime down, when your measures reach most richests pockets out causing them finantial damages, \nthey will put the congressmen to do the impeachment. American people will suffer in a first moment but will cure the disease.

Shameful moment ?for Indians

The reality of the situation is that while Canada’s retaliatory tariffs will hurt the US a little, Trump’s tariffs hurt Canada a lot! Right now we’re in a moment where Canadian politicians of all stripes need to placate the public’s demand for retaliation, however no matter who the next PM is, they will quickly and quietly be working to undo whatever factors led to this situation. That will mean acquiescing to Trump’s border demands among other concessions. One would be forgiven for thinking Trudeau should have just gone along with them in the first place and spared Canada the pain.

Trump wants them to quit buying Chinese EVs. Well, anything Chinese, but I think he wants to start with EVs. I look for this to be the next chapter with Canada and Mexico. Capitalism at its finest moment.

The USA has been the world's piggy bank for decades..an the moment we wanna work on ourselves the other country show there true colors. They don't give af about America.

In a stunning moment, Canadiens just booed during the US National Anthem at tonight’s NHL game. This has never happened in the history of US-Canada relationship. Donald Trump has made America the laughing stock of the world.

A lot of us Americans remember learning about the tariff wars in history class that ended up in deciding fair trade was the better route. I fear we’re about to learn the same lesson again…\n\nAs far as the drug trade goes apparently the GOV doesn’t spend enough time on the internet because the cartels are no longer just in Mexico they’re in the USA and in Canada. They have learned the Canadian border is a lot easier to cross and they can get into BC pretty easily due to relaxed immigration policies In Canada.. they probably don’t actually know where the drugs are coming from or where they’re being manufactured entirely. The cartels are probably a step ahead of them at the moment. \n\nI can’t believe the auto industry lobbyists were not instructed to go full send on the detriment of the opposite position taken from the NAFTA. The only thing I can see is auto sales are slumping and maybe they can blame this on the tariff policy for massive restructuring. \n\nI kind of understand wanting to negotiate with Mexico because they probably buy less American goods than Americans buy Mexican goods (drugs excluding) but I’m guessing Canada is a better customer of American goods than Americans are of Canadian goods. Why would you want to upset a good partner, customer, and ally!? It’s Beyond my comprehension…. If Trump was really smart he’d convince some factories to actually invest in Mexico with cooperation from the Mexican government investing in efficient transportation from the manufacturing sectors to the American border and the coasts for distribution. This would likely really help their economy and change the whole dynamic of all the things Trump has issues with. Fix it at the source not try to treat the symptoms.

Canada is on a suicidal path at this moment. Just watch its economy going down the drain. Mexico will follow. I am against unilateral tarrif with Canada and Mexico but these twon nations seems hardheaded to the wrong path.

This is Trump’s plan to bring a right wing government in Canada in the next elections. The moment, he has his friends elected, he will drop the tariffs.

I bet this is the retaliation for the “moment “ between Justin and Melania on the tarmac a few years ago. \nDonald was hurt that day and this is his revenge. \nGoogle it and you’ll understand.

Hahaha Canada is going to fold…their economy cannot stand the tariffs more than 6 to 8 days. The US can in house or import everything from other countries. Canada doesn’t have the luxury…the US protects the moment of their goods. \n\nBtw Germany…the US protects the moment of your goods as well…don’t test the US.

We need to focus on us for a moment. We allow them in when we are situated because us Americans are really struggling…..

Good! I hope every illegal immigrant is as scared as Laken Riley was in her last moments…

And not a moment too soon. Thank you Mr. President.\n\nIf you're here illegally you broke the law (8 U.S. Code § 1325), you are a criminal.\nStart packing and fast.

Don’t think I have ever seen a single podcast with Caitlin Collin’s (aka box head)where she is doing anything other than searching for controversial gotcha moments

Cet homme ou cette femme qu’il devient mérite du respect pour son service mais ceci dit cela peut créer une certaine anormalité spécialement dans ce milieu qui exige une attention particulière pour rester focus car le danger peut surgir à tout moment et le Président Trump à raison . Car dans le travail important et dangereux qu’il occupe il est important de rester soi- même c’est à dire avec notre identité officielle mais le soir entouré de nos amis chacun peut se transformer en femme ou homme comme bon lui semble.

Hey, forget for a moment that she pretends to be a woman and ask yourself, is she a good productive member of the military and society?

Earthlings, at the moment humans are experiencing extreme growing pains. ? ?

Praying for people's to find home just not here at the moment

???????\nWho cares? Colombia completely caved in, moments later.\nNow Colombian planes are coming to pick up their INVADERS...\nOn their dime...\n??????????????????

You’re so slow. By the time you posted this the Columbia president caved. Absolutely a beast moment by president Trump . Let me see the news story from cnn talking how amazing this reversal was. president Trump is changing things and getting this national moving . If you continue to bash him and not reporting honestly on the amazing turn around president Trump has preformed and his approval rating your lost. CNN will never recover as a news outlet. Moving to streaming won’t even help you.

Free Trade stops war. That was always the cost of global economics- shared prosperity for shared peace. Now, things are degrading back to conflict zones. This will get worse and more expensive for all with NOTHING to gain but what we are giving up in this moment.

Well, the commercial balance benefits the US at the moment, Colombia responding with tariffs will tend to hur the US the most, but what important it's populism.

Never a dull moment with Diaper Donny Boy.....
