Greetings from Lithuania. Great speech. While Canada has so many natural resources it is stupid for USA to go into trade war. We support Canada!

it's a joke to speak like a crybaby to USA.. we're already suffering here in Canada - instead of trying to make this right with USA, we're declaring a (trade)WAR??? this fool will run Canada deeper into the ground than he already has in the last 8 years... keep in mind this guy officially resigned - why on earth is he continued to be allowed to speak this way?

How can anyone listen to you after your BS covid policies + actions you took against your people? Go use one of your ‘pods’ you have up there. Total joke of a leader, welcome to the USA, Canada ?? ?? ??

I support Canada but not Trudeau , he is just smokes and mirrors…I think as soon as his govt falls and new govt forms USA will negotiate a deal with Canada and trade will return to normal …

The USA will probably lose all its allies around the world. Then they will be virtually alone in the big wide world. Canada, South Korea, Japan, EU, Ukraine, Mexico, China, UK. Everyone is now seeing how the USA treats former friends

He left out that Canada put tariffs on the USA which the USA responded to with 25% tariffs

Allies doesn't mean that Canada will exploit USA through unfair trading practices ?????????❤️❤️❤️❤️????

I’d much rather have Canada join the EU than the USA, but you’d need neither :D Great job Canada!

Wow.. very powerful speech. Support Canada, block everything from the USA as long as orange man is in power

From the tiny Pacific Island of Papua New Guinea ??, we stand with you Canada and Ukraine.. ??..Hope the people of USA come to their senses and stand up against what this President is doing to their country..

Canada is a state of the USA.

Enjoy your short battle, Canada imports 75 % from the USA, USA 15% from Canada, Guess who will win ?

more bull shyte from trudeau. fact: tariffs hurt the people who buy the goods. so canadian tariffs on usa goods means: CANADIANS WILL PAY MORE FOR USA GOODS! just as usa consumers will pay more for canadian goods subject to usa tariffs. if canada wants to return a punch, find other markets, trade with other countries, rid canada of the festering relationship it has with this facist state, usa. \nrealitycheck: both leaders( the turd and comb over clown) are supercharging inflation in their respective countries with this play acting of a trade war.

Canada cannot survive a trade war. They will go broke while we go back to being self sufficient. Canada is a communist parasite governed country. 60% of Canadas income is from the USA. Pay the tariffs or parish.

There should be someone who will put Trump in his place. He will destroy USA. I personally support Canada and know how much is difficult to struggle for your country in tough times. Love from Armenia❤️

Canada needs to get a new spokesman..this dude is a fool and needs the USA more than they need him.

So Canada and Europe think Canada is going to win in this???? They’re going against the USA…. ????????????????????????????????????? cute story!!!

Greetings from Poland - Canada is doing the right thing, cant back down. Trump is creating a coalition against USA, instead of against China. \nI’ve been to Canada a few times and you people are great. Stay strong

Just to be clear, these are the tariffs Canada has imposed on the USA for years: Milk: 270% Cheese: 245% Butter: 298% Chicken: 238% Sausages: 69.9% Barley seed: 57-57.8% Copper: 48% Aluminum: 45% Steel: 25% Cars: 45% TVs: 45% Eggs: 163% Wheat: 94% Bovine/Meat: 26.5% Source : Global Affairs Canada\n\nTaken off another thread

CANADA SEEMS MORE WORRIED THAN THE USA…. ????????????????????

Iran Iran Iran ? Canada was a puppy licking USA bottom every time USA says Iran Canada says Iran ???

did you say thank you to president trump and USA? the only thing u did right is to wear a suit. you can't dictate the tariffs of Canada on us.

Justin ! you weren't able to protect and run the country when times were easy , when Germans begged you for LNG ! Back than you told them Canada doesn't have the infrastructure to load it into vessels . Guess what? neither Germany had that , but they;ve built in 3 MONTHS !! When you went to India it looked like you were there to go clubbing or dancing instead of looking for contracts or investments, either Canadian to India or viceversa . Now , looking for some other markets when USA is getting closed, its difficult . Nice words ,by the way , but action is what we need .

First, he backdown from his responsibility, by resigning from the post of Governor... N now he representing 51st state of USA... How on earth he can address Canada....

canada will hurt more than usa

From the USA good for you Canada. People who voted for Trump don’t understand the significance increase of prices that will hit their pockets severely.

Friendships with people from the USA has not deteriorated. It’s that jackass that is playing President that doesn’t have any friends in Canada.

USA ggonna be so rich, Canada will be so poor

The United States has elected a president who is turning its longest-standing allies into adversaries. This isn't just about Canada. The entire Western world is watching. While the U.S. has the power to harm its allies, those allies also have the ability to push back, and the USA is rapidly losing friends who may not return. As America’s alliances weaken, so do the obstacles its rivals face. \n\nTake Australia, for example. Should it continue aligning with the U.S. in the Asia-Pacific region? Should it continue hosting critical American surveillance infrastructure? Should it keep supporting and supplying the U.S. fleet? The USA enjoys a trade surplus with us, but do we need to spend USD$50 billion over the next decade buying your hardware? The Europeans seem to be a more trustworthy ally, who don't make us a target.\n\nThe USA would argue that their presence ensures security, but the reality is that countries like Australia only face threats because they are tied to U.S. strategic interests. Perhaps a more pragmatic approach that avoids unnecessary antagonism with China would serve us better. \n\nAs for Canada, it will adapt and find new trading partners, just as Australia did when China attempted economic coercion. And through it all, Canada, know that Australia will stand with you—always.

Trump has destroyed trust in US allies, and it can ont be repaired easy. Trust can be destroyed in minutes, but it takes many years, maybe decades, before it can be gained again. It affects not only what US experiences right now with Canada and Mexico. Be sure that even Taiwan Australia and all other Asian allies are questioning right now if USA can be trusted. Imagine, Trumps breaks a treaty with Canada and Mexico which he personally has established in his first presidency and sold to his people as the greatest deal that has ever been archieved. Tells you a lot about US credebility. Trump is right now destroing world order which has been established mainly by USA after WW2.\nI heared, that there are rumors, that Trump might be a Russian KGB agent since 1987. I don't know if that is true, but it would explain a lot of why Trump is acting as he does - it is not in the interest of USA, pressurizing/blackmailing/offending/humiliating US allies and destroying US and foreign economies. This is practically enacting a wishlist of foreign dictators like Putin and Xi Chin Ping.\nIt certainly will not make America great again, but poorer, weaker and internationally isolated. it will be US people that will suffer the most.

Dumb move to introduce de-facto sanctions against Canada. Trump's perception is weird, very weird. I question his sanity. Alienating allies and neighbors will discredit and isolate USA.

we will travel this year to Canada, and i can't wait to meet this proud people, stand up against USA

Soon USA will Invade Canada

Both Canada & USA are British migrants, they should go back home to Britain

Canada need to team up with China! Forget usa ?

Let me tell you USA and Canada you're allies and your haters Putin and Shigiping are gonna benefit from this think wise, Trump, Putin doesn't love you he's just using you.

USA will invade Canada

Hi frim Montreal trump saying canada is taking advantage of usa. Did he forget about the American hostages we saved in Iran, did he forget how canada stepped in during 911, tajing thousands of Americans who could not land in usa but were rerouted to eastern canada, did he forget how canadians and americans fought side by side during several wars. In my opinion not only dod he forget, but he is an insulting human being not fit to be behind the oval office but instead be behind bars as the CRIMAL that he is. God bless America you are going to need it.

The USA does not need Canada but Canada needs USA you Canadian stand up on your own

100% the USA will annex Canada

USA will annex Canada. 100% watch

Canada is not the USA it is part of something much greater it is called the Commonwealth the United States may be failing it's empire declining because of one man I am Australian two countries you can always count on and they are the United Kingdom and Australia

Trump is isolating his friends of the world like Mexico, China and Canada and kissing Putins arse . People this could lead to some idiot pushing some buttons like that idiot in Korea or Russia . Japan is in danger as well as the Ukraine . The USA used to fight for democracy and now trump wants the Ukraine to surrender to Putin .

What a bafoon, inflation will go tremendously down when we start DRILLING, and BUILDING from the USA! C-YA CANADA

Bravo Trudeau! You are the right president for Canada in these unique times. Keep the international alliances, Canada 1st and Canada for Canadians. The whole world is supporting all Canadians. The world does not need President Karen Trump and his madness, nor the world needs USA. It is extremely disrespectful what Trump and the USA goverment are doing. WE ARE THE PEOPLE, WE ARE THE WORLD!

Hate Canada \nLove ❤USA

I stand with Canada, as I feel bad how USA has gone down with politics. An Albanian student in Egypt ????

Canada should takeover the USA, not the other way around

How many times can an anchor say wolf in five minutes? Btw even my fireplace log has “made in USA with a wrapper from Canada”.
