MUSK HAS TAKEN OVER AMERICAN......AN ANTI CHRIST....A DESTROYER..... HE NEEDS THE CALM PASTEURS OF HEAVEN AND TRUMPUS WITH HIM, TO SCRUB HIS BACK.

From Sweden: we stand with you Canada! Don't back down to that bully of a president in the US. ????❤️

He is a Democratic American. I really like this guy. Won’t I’ve always had a lot of respect for Canadians. They’re friendly. They’re nice people and don’t tell me to go live there. I’ll stay here and standby. My fellow Americans that don’t want tyranny. And I’m in my golden years and I had to see this. And I can’t imagine I just survived open heart surgery woke up during the surgery surgery and came out of it alive to be brought back back to what this is happening in my country.

Trump is a BULLY. Trump needs and thrives on attention and adulation. DO NOT GIVE IN TO TRUMP !! The best way to deal with a bully is to STAND UP TO HIM. IF THE WORLD STANDS TOGETHER AGAINST DONALD TRUMP, DONALD TRUMP WILL BACK DOWN. JUST LIKE ALL BULLIES.\nTrump wants to control 1/3 of our known world, along with China and Russia.

Hope he doesn't back down or get scared of trump

Wow, some do t like Trudeau but that’s a leader. Has 100% the back of canada. It’s about canada not anything else. Trump worries about nothing but trump. That’s the difference between us and the greedy USA. Oh, you have picked a fight with the wrong people……trust me on that. We are a country that stands together. We haven’t divided our country like trump has, we stand together.

I do not blame Canada one bit for coming back at Donald Trump. He deserves whatever Canada puts up on him.

The world should slap America economic sanctions along with all the tariffs then Canada should cut off oil & gas then in the summer cut off the power & really watch them sweat then they will be begging us to turn everything back on .

I remember when we had a president that could speak in complete sentences without any name calling and pointing fingers at everyone else. Canada, you are doing exactly what you do when you see a bully, you stand up and fight back. As an American, I’m so embarrassed by trump’s behavior but sadly I am not surprised.

Trump administration already trying to set the stage for backing down. Canada and Mexico should not negotiate with terrorism. Stand their ground. Help Trump and Musk supporters finally open their eyes and see how STUPID the Trump administration actually is, and how everything that is being done (crashing the economy) will ultimately benefit the ultra rich, who can purchase failing assets for cheap.

We do not need any Canadian products. Tariffs will work, we have natural resources gas, oil, minerals. do not need you. Critical minerals. that's a joke. We have all the fertilizer we need. So I am not sure what he is talking about. Its time to bring the auto makers home, Its time to bring all our jobs back home. The canadians are tired of him as well and he is out in October and the conservative party will win just like in the US. People are tired of the left agenda.

So when are you going to talk about your border. When are you going to call an election so we can flush you down the drain and get our country back ? And no we are not going to boo the USA anthem. Trudeau is a disgrace

Trudeau speaks as a true leader who has morals and values. Why is Donald turning to Russia and turning his back on American allies ? Most Americans do not support Donald.

Rich people like inflation. The last scorching inflation we had in the 80s, CDs for 3 years and only 10,000 dollars drew 13.5%, there was also high, high, high unemployment, home loans were 18.5% interest with good credit. This set the farmers up or losing their farms and the Savings and Loan collapse and the subsequent 113 Billion Bail out. This was WITHOUT gutting our federal agencies, cutting back on SNAP and Medicaid and firing federal employees and gutting the agencies' ability to do oversight with the Offices of Inspector General. I can't even tell you why Dept. of Defenses is calling off our cyber defenses against Russia who hacks everything in America nuclear power plants, hydro, etc. Got my gas today - our refineries are fitted for Canadian oil though it's not a 25% tariff but Canada could slap an export tax on it to be paid by us.

THANK YOU!!! Thank You for doing what few have done. What few countries, what few leaders, especially our own leaders have had the BACK BONE to do. The world respects you. AMERICANS respect you!! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. I pray that you won't back down like other weak men and countries have. Thank You Canada, Americans love you. ?

The thing is Trump will start directing sales to Russia. It’s the only logical outcome unless Trump wants to walk back his tariffs. Gonna call it now, he’s gonna lift the trade ban with Russia and direct American goods there.

Canada is a bunch of losers we've been supporting them for years that guy needs to shut his mouth and pay us back the money he owes

Dear Canada, Please remember that only half of us voted for this monster, and we'll be back in four years, or maybe even two.

Damn trudeau earned back my respect with this speech

Trudeau is serving the final moments of his last term, but his approval ratings shot up since the Trump presidency started. Trump genuinely such a crappy leader than other leaders with approval ratings in the dirt are gaining support for going against him. As an American, it’s damn amazing. I hope the next PM of Canada keeps up the same energy and doesn’t concede to the US. Things won’t get better until the world sticks it to us, because the world turning their backs on us is the only thing that’ll get through the thick skulls of anyone who still supports Trump.

Stupid questions. Trump has stabbed Canada in the back and is sucking putin.

Don't back down to Trump! Stay strong Canada.

I have no problem with a tariff to China or Mexico, neither is an ally.\nEspecially corrupt Mexico run by cartels .\nGenerally I back Trump - BUT Canada is a special neighbor/partner.\nThis is not good.\nI hope Trump reconsiders.

The Marxist dictator, Justin Black-face Trudeau is threatened by Trump and panicking because the people of Canada see right through his lies and would rather have a country govern the way President Trump does it and give the power back to the people instead of having it run by the world, economic forum

Keep standing up Canada true untited states citizens support you. Do what you need to do to fight back against this bully felon.

China is striking back on the other side... What about the Mexican?

Canadians are weak cry baby cry , 80% of Canada is with Indians ahahaha , if there will be a war , all these Indians will move back to India ahahahaha this is funny

I hope they know not all of us on the USA is backing Trump!!!

Denmark, Europe here: We support your decision to fight back and stand by our Canadian brothers and sisters! Stay strong and keep fighting the Orange man.

Canada join the EU! The USA are no longer a reliable partner. Maybe you Canadians can even help bringing the UK back into the EU.

As Canadian, we don't like Trudeau but we have to unite together and flight back this unjustified tariff and nonsense trade war.

Great speech. Try to remember, the President does not appear to play well with others. His ridiculous tariffs and annexation fantasies are absurd. I think the American people will push back against these policies.

From us in Britain. I think ever since Trump back in power he cause massive divid between american and their allies. Maybe Trump is the enemy now possible bigger threat than Russia and China. Canada your always welcome in Britain.

I'm not a fan of Justin Trudeau by any means, HOWEVER... Hearing his speech just now filled me with pride to be Canadian and standing up to the new autocratic fascist government of our southern neighbour. I've watched over the last +/- 40 days the UnUnited States of America devolve into Russia's lap dog, with Putin's excrement on Orange Man's face on a near daily basis. I hope that whatever good people left down there can rise up and take back their country ASAP, otherwise the entire world will suffer the catastrophic consequences!

I am Canadian and we will fight back dollar for dollar.????????✊?

PM Trudeau called trump smart....he reached WAY down for that one. These are NOT smart men moves. Kudos to Canada for NOT backing down.

In truth Kamala Harris won, but cheating through vote suppression enabled Donald Trump to become president. Even so, had the election not been close, Trump would never have been president again. It's good for Trump voters to feel pain for their choices, the boomerang has come back to hit them in the head. ? They only learn the hard way.

Trump is playing chess and you’re playing checkers. What you’re doing is no surprise, of course Canada would do reverse Tariffs. We’re ready to bring more manuf back to the USA.

Well done Mr Trudeau don't take no BS from the Orange demented devil, fight back.??

I am proud of my canada. We will not back down to the US.We will stand strong ? together ??

Sorry to all Canadian brothers and sisters. Our leaders are aligned with Russia and backed by brainwashed, misinformed supporters.

Bye bye America - ŷou are going to ruin your marketplace share and the world will turn its back on you, nobody will willingly cooperate with you and American goos will be priced out of the market, work will stop in America soon enough because others will seek other economic partnerships …. Stupid … trump will ruin you …. He’s a nut job … I see civil war in the states before long in whatever form that takes … the ones that will suffer will be the American people because it’s you who will be paying these tariffs if you want foreign goods. If nobody buys from you your inflation will soar. You have put your trust in a criminal who uses other people’s money to buy his way out of jail.

Just to let you know, a great deal of us don’t want this either. We are trapped in a growing nightmare that is a terrifying orange clown and his psychotic South African sidekick-they are backed by nefarious groups with deep pockets who have been plotting for years and were ready on day 1 when Frump took office. They are vile and evil but very organized. We are with you! ?We are embarrassed, ashamed, and appalled at how the bully in office is treating our allies, and will do everything in our power to make this stop. The state of our world does not need more Putins and Trumps-there are more of us than them. We can overcome if we are prepared to dig our heels in and fight for what we know is right. Whenever I become disheartened I remind myself of the Ukrainian people who have been at war, fighting mostly alone for years, and somehow holding their own. They deserve more. You deserve more. The American people deserve more. Together we will overcome this scourge!?????

I'm not his biggest fan, but that's more like it.\nThe democracies of the world have to fight back against a USA that has been captured by a dangerous criminal and traitor, not just his country but all their allies too. \nStay strong Canada, the world is with you, love from the UK, \n????

I’m from Peru who leave in Canada for the past 37 years and I’m telling you I will stand for Canada whatever it takes, Canada will not back down!

Yet the Liberals are gaining in the polls...This country is finished economically. Trudeau is a weak leader and I would prefer someone who isn't backed by Trudeau to lead the Liberals, nor Carney who refuses to outright criticize Trudeau.

Canada would be in a better place If he only spoke this clearly and stood up with a back bone years ago, not months before leaving office! smh

Britain ?? has your back CANADA ??

OH CANADA! Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of YOU and your Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Do NOT let Donald Trump ruin your way of life. It has been pristine for way too long. Hang in there, stay strong, we Americans are behind you. I am so ashamed of the people that put Agent Orange and his hillbilly in charge. We will fight, make no mistake, we will fight for the real America and for you too. I was born in Deep River, Ontario in 1954. My original family originates in Miramichi (formally New Castle), New Brunswick. I still own 45 hectares in Miramichi. I was brought here by my parents. They would be so ashamed. I think it is time I came back home. ♥️☘️

CNN correspondence never gives the more impactful concerns - in this case, the concern should be the fact that DT is attacking Canada, our friends, and Mexico, our friends - because he's a fkn traitor - and the US Constitution that says it's our American duty to stop people like him. The government and the common people must be overlooking these crimes and willing to give up their rights and freedoms. The original KGB and the long running Putin agenda is the slow game in his global conquest for power. You have to consider the geopolitics. If Mexico and Canada won't defend us (because they hate Trump) DT can/will sell out America to Russia, in turn Canada would be the closest place to conquer, then Mexico. It's stupid tho, unless the UN stands back and watches this happen too. Think I'm bullshittin, reading too far into things, but I'm not. Nobody is at the wheel but Trump, and he doesn't even know how to drive. You, the people and corporate new media will never read far enough to get the entire picture. Krasnov stole the Country to handicap us in the Cold War, except the War is white hot. He's in line with Hitlers handbook. And don't forget, that Nazis were white people who had no problem offing white people. Just sayin. Nobody is safe in Trump country. It's all Biffed up now.
