Please Canada PLEASE KNOW we are NOT being represented by by that orange, drunk party clown with many known and unknown mental problems. \nthe PEOPLE does NOT side with him and we are TRAPPED HERE on all sides. What can we do to get another country/countries to step in and HELP US!!!! PLEASE!! I BEG OF YOU!\nWe are watching the world around us burn and we. Need. HELP! \n \n? PLEASE PLEASE HELP! SOMEONE!!! ?

All of us who are sane Americans are absolutely sickened by the way FOTUS (F for FELON) is treating our allies. I am pissed off and I’m embarrassed that he was voted in. I am proud to say I have NEVER supported or voted for that ignorant fool! Hopefully, we can get rid of him soon and begin to repair our relationships with our allies and begin to rebuild our reputation in the world.

American here. I swear this guy we call president is a Russian Trojan Horse. He's divided our country, also dividing us from the rest of the world. I'm afraid for our country.

here is the problem, trump is going to take us into world war 3

The fallout from the cult about Trudeau calling DJT by his name, will be starting soon. \n\nWell done Canada. I hate that is is impacting all in the US, but it is absolutely justified with how the current administration is treating the world.

I am a very proud Canadian. Thank you to all those supporting us from all over the world.

CANADA IS THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD ...USA NEEDS US MORE THAN WE DO. TRUST ME

Canada met Trump's terms and he still screwed them, I don't blame them for retaliating. Losing allies and isolating us from the rest of the world is going to hurt everyone

If Europe, Canada, Japan, misc SE asian countries, etc., get together, they could absolutely take over as the stabilizing force in the world. DJT is doing what he wants - very cynically, he’s happy to ruin the US so he can have control over it. Totally insane. US is a mess, liberals have indulged the crazy left so much that moderates were feeling forced to vote in rebellion- but to ultimately hurt themselves. WTF?! For sure.

Unlike the US, Canada is still a trading nation. As a result, my plan is not simply to buy Canadian, but to avoid buying American. Here's my country of origin preference list: \n1. Canada \n2. Europe/ UK \n3. rest of the world \n4. China \n5. Russia/ North Korea/ USA

Go Canada!!!! we all stand with you well done. So now Tariffs from Canada and China, next will be Europe and Australia will stop all imports from the US Hopefully, Trump will cause a recession on the world

The canadian people are about to show americans what war means and how we stand strong. We will not be pushovers and i know rest of world will back us!!

Thank you Mr Trudeau for being a world leader! I am ashamed of the current government in the US.

Greaattt now the whole world is about to hate us.. ?

Principles for Dealing with The Changing World Order By Ray Dalio. \nAlthough it may seem like Trump is hurting the economy at the time being. He is doing the US economy a long term favor. Nothing personal against our fellow Canadians. We love our allies. But the US needed a Leader like Trump after the Bummy Biden administration. God Bless EVERYONE reading this comment. We will all make it through this.

A 999% better speech as any of “Donald” ? who talks about peace but fights with all “alliances” ?\nPutin loves to attack innocent people living far from war zones, yeah thats the “good guy”.\nCanada, Mexico and also Europe really harrassing The US, OMG without them US will become third world country.

JUSTIN TRUDEAU JUST RESIGN AND WALK AWAY. STOP INSULTING THE MOST POWERFUL COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. YOU HAVE DESTROYED THIS COUNTRY AND NOW YOU WANT TO PUT US AT WAR. OUR MILITARY IS RUINED BECAUSE OF YOU. THEY HAVE NO AMMUNITION TO FIGHT OR DEFEND US AND YOU ARE TRYING TO GET US IN A WAR. JUST TAKE THE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS YOU HAVE STOLEN FROM US AND DISAPPEAR SOMEWHERE WHERE WE WILL NEVER SEE YOUR FACE OR HEAR YOUR VOICE EVER AGAIN.

This was the best Country USA in the world !! What happened to us!! So sad so scary

There are those of us that don't want this either. I did not vote for him. He is a disgrace to our country and the world.

As an American, I am very sad to see our neighbors and friends pull away from us. All of these decades of working together to achieve the greater good for the world; destroyed by one man's selfishness, greed, and delusion. Don't get me wrong, he's supported by people that worship him and are pushed on by their own delusions of grandeur and selfishness. They can't see the immovable, solid wall they are hurdling towards. I hope in the future, our past friends and allies are willing to take us back once these fools get kicked out.

US will the only loser here , Canada doesn't need US trade but the US needs Canadian resources that can't be replaced by any other Country , this is going to be good for Canada we needed this, free trade with EU and Asia , huge NG contracts with Europe ,our softwood lumber can be gobbled up by Europe and Asia , going to build our own pipe lines and refineries and sell gas and oil at a higher price . 10 yrs from now Canada will be one of the riches Countries in the World !!!

I am completely outraged. I am disgusted beyond comprehension with the gutless Republican party for not standing up to trump. Canada has traditionally been our steadfast Ally and closest Trading partner. Trump is a walking, talking, dumpster fire, and must be removed from office as soon as humanly possible. How this profoundly disturbed, mentally ill excuse for a human being ever got elected to the highest office in the land is utterly beyond me. This is where MAGA ignorance, gullibility, and abysmal stupidity has gotten us. The rest of us here in the United States are just horrified by the destructive chaos Trump is unleashing on this country and the rest of the world. Our profound apologies to Canada

Canada’s 25% Tariffs? A Win for American Businesses in the Long Run\n\nAt first glance, Canada slapping a 25% tariff on U.S. goods might seem like a negative for America. But in reality, this move could actually work in our favor by making the U.S. economy stronger, more self-sufficient, and less dependent on foreign markets.\n\t1.\tBoosting American Manufacturing & Production – When Canada makes U.S. goods more expensive with tariffs, American businesses have a huge opportunity to shift focus to domestic markets and new trade partners. This could bring more production back home and reduce reliance on Canada.\n\t2.\tEncouraging Trade Diversification – The U.S. isn’t limited to Canada. If they want to play hardball, we can expand exports to other countries with fewer trade restrictions. Canada makes up about 15% of U.S. exports, but the rest of the world is wide open. This is a chance to diversify and strengthen our economy.\n\t3.\tMaking Canada Pay More for U.S. Goods – Tariffs don’t just hurt exporters—they also raise costs for Canadian consumers. If Canada wants American products, they’ll end up paying more or have to settle for alternatives that might be lower quality or more expensive from other countries.\n\t4.\tStrengthening America’s Negotiating Position – If Canada wants to raise tariffs, that gives the U.S. even more leverage in future trade talks. The U.S. economy is far larger and more powerful than Canada’s, and in the long run, they need us more than we need them.\n\t5.\tReducing America’s Trade Deficit – If fewer goods are exported to Canada, that means more products stay in the U.S. This helps lower dependence on foreign markets and could even stabilize prices for American consumers.\n\nBottom Line: Canada’s Move Hurts Them More Than It Hurts the U.S.\n\nIf Canada wants to put tariffs on U.S. goods, let them. In the long run, it pushes America to be more self-reliant, strengthens our industries, and forces Canada to pay the price for their own policies.\n\nAt the end of the day, America has the stronger economy, better resources, and more trade options—Canada needs U.S. trade more than we need theirs. If they want to make American goods more expensive, they’ll feel it a lot more than we will.

Trump thinks he can control the world and extort money to line his pockets...Trump is revegeful, boastful and even the late QE knows that is also a balatant thief ...there is absolutely nothing good about him ....anybody else who is found guilty in the US are subjected to a prison sentence but Trump will corrupt the even the justice system so that he can wilfully commit more crimes and not be sentence to prison but can go on freely to commit more criminal acts. The American people who dont want more sufferings should strip him of the title president and kick the him out of the White House soon.

Trumpism divides, isolates, and weakens the US, it’s too bad that once a well-respected and powerful peacemaking empire is becoming a pathetic joke to the world. And most people are sound asleep worshiping the clown, the dangerous entertainer. “When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king. The palace becomes a circus”

What's the trolling horse? Cause Trump is doing stuff and nobody's watching what he's doing. Guess what? This can be World War 3, no matter what Canadians do to protect their borders. He aint gonna be satisfied anyway, so we gotta cut our resources and go somewhere else. Take our goods and baskets out of the basket. And start dealing outside of the US that was our big mistake we don't want to deal with Russians. This putin is nothing but a dictator please nobody

Trudeau is the epitome of western society's moral decay, under his leadership Canada has become a radical third world country, from gay marriage to state sponsored marihuana, to state sponsored gambling that floods the country. As a result, Canada today is the bedrock and safe haven for criminals, while ordinary Canadian people's lives continually decline, especially the working class who are struggling yet still cannot make ends meet. A lot of Canadians either have moved to the US, or they would like for Canada to be part of the US so that they have some hope. I am sorry for the Canadian people but have no sympathy for Trudeau.

This current regime is transmuting Trump's anger at the whole world into punitive measures. Tariffs will raise inflation, bullying and fingerwagging gratuitous. To use fentanyl and human trafficking and illegal border crossings as an excuse is chicken. Canada accommodated US by setting up commissions to combat each. So...what is the real schtick here? He is gonna alienate everybody but Putin.

This entire Trump tariff obsession has NOTHING to do with improving the US economy. It is specifically designed to destabilize the global economy, and force the all-out fighting WWIII war. The belief is this. Wreck the world, then have the oligarchs step in to fix it. Right. The very people bent on causing all the world's problems will be the saviours of mankind. Wake up world.

The tariffs are designed to substantially increase the gaps between very wealthy and wealthy, and wealthy and working class within the US itself. The plan will work; that will be the state of things when DT is finally gone. Effects on Canada, Mexico, China and the rest of the world will be the collateral damage that results from this plan.

The US is the biggest consumer in the world so it has the advantage in any trade war.

I am SO proud of our Prime Minister he echoed Canadian sentiments exactly PERFECTLY said Mr. Prime Minister ❤God bless you ??God bless Canada??. God bless Ukraine??God bless his world?protect us all from the evil that has become the 50 United States??

Every leader in the world sounds like a smart and intellectual person except ours we have a dumb limit vocabulary hot mess of a person representing only the racist,dumb crazy and rich group of us wow

Canada, I am sorry for the acts of Donald J. Trump, who does not speak for me (and I am confident most of the people of the USA). If I could change Trump's actions directly, I would.\nI believe your government is taking the correct actions in response and I do not find fault in that. You are our friends. I/we will suffer from Trump's actions. I am sorry for us all.\nMay God save the free world.\n❤❤❤

US ?? RUS ?? China ?? North Korea ?? STAND together this is our world. ✊?

The whole world needs to leave the US to rot on its own

This is the greatest speech the world has heard since Winston Churchill ?. From England I salute you Canadians ? ?? ??????? ?? ??. I’m sorry the unintelligent and uneducated from the US backwaters voted in that orange fck, but karma’s a b1tch and they can now enjoy paying premium prices across the board in their self appointed ‘great’ country ?

MAGA Trump administration are traitors to America ?? and the democratic world ? selling us all out to murderous Russia ??

This is BEYOND enraging and embarrassing as an American. Trump is the biggest danger to the world and world peace! Millions of us Americans support you Canada and Ukraine! And Trumps supporters sure are quiet about those supposed “cheap eggs” here comes the disastrous tariffs!

I may not have voted for Justin Trudeau. But I respect him for not bowing to the orange man and standing up for Canada the true north strong and free. We will get through this the world is with us ??

These clowns are all working together to bring down the people. Don’t be so naive! The world’s a stage and behind the scenes Trudeau & Trump are having dinner in their mansions and laughing at us all.

???, our closest friend? We protect you cowards from the rest of the world! All while you fuck us every day on lumber! If im gonna be forced to pay a premium. I want it from AMERICA! keep your lumber and your shit fighting skills hockey!

Just remember world not all of us voted for Trump. Just the ignorant uneducated low lives that can’t critically think. They can be found in the armpit of the US also known as the South or the same states that lost the civil war which ended slavery. Most of you probably never heard it because no one wants to visit that part of the US.

America......no offense, but I can't wait to complete bridging trade relationships with the EU, Japan, and China. All of these in recent months started discussions on major trade deals, which could eclipse the trade we do with the US.\n\nI'm sick of this sht from a country rotting from the basement up. \n\nBTW I hear Nebraska going bankrupt because their workforce is made up of 70% of undocumented immigrants....Nebraska is a total trump state...lolrtf.\n\nCanada may hit hard times, but Americans DO NOT KNOW or truly understand us.\nOur connection is deeply rooted in decency and has for hundreds of years. \n\nHow will the world ever trust the US with integrity or honor when it breaches its own agreements.\n\nI believe the US will likely be damaged beyond repair from this antichrist.

I would like for trump to impose tariffs on everyone else in the world except for The US Canada and Mexico

I don't care what side of the fence you sit on. I did not need to hear this man speak to already know Canada was, but may yet be, our greatest ally and trading partner. I have no idea what possessed Mr. Trump to decide to stab our allies in the back, but it was not something good. 27.5% of voting age adults voted for him. How many of them were serenaded by hollow promises and a good slogan. Perhaps all of the mud slinging and Russian media interference helped? If you add in our more studious teenagers, truly reformed felons, and immigrants who actually deserve a gold card, that number plummets to less than 25%. I won't ask people to wake up, if you are reading this you are already more than capable of finding out that I speak only the hard truth. This means less than a quarter of america wanted this. This means your vote and opinions DO count. I know it is incredibly difficult to reach for and find answers in a world where your president or primary candidate throws 'fake news' in your face on a regular basis. He is actually telling the truth. When he is not telling you is that he is a primary enabler of 'fake news'. To him, only his word is law, only his opinion matters, only he deserves to be on top, and he deserves authority over all of your lives. Do the right thing, we all have a civil duty to understand our candidates to the very best of our ability. When a man has been convicted of dozens of felonies, and we tell you that this is only what we were willing to expose. You may want start believing us. The genuine facts of his past are unilaterally corrupting to our children and good people alike. Do not let the american people repeat their mistakes, force Mr. Trump to atone for his mistakes. No not empower him to sweep them under the rug for the sake of his own arrogance, because that is exactly what he is doing by trying to dismantle the CIA and FBI. These two institutions are shining examples of America's pursuit of freedom and justice. Freedom to keep billionaires from corrupting the morals of our children. Freedom to know that the rule of law is immutable, our constitution is not just a paper with fancy traditional sentiment. Even if the law may sometimes be bent for the sake of decency, forgiveness, and the pursuit of 'united we stand', our constitution cannot. Amendments require the FULL support of nearly all Americans, not 27.5% of unrestricted adults.

I’d rather be Canadian than American right now.. The US ‘government’ is acting treasonously and recklessly against our own interests and the world’s..

There is a huge opportunity for the rest of the world to lower the economic influence that the US has over us.\n\nThe other large importers of US products should get together and, where available, smash out interim tariff free trade agreements across certain products. Replace US products with alternatives from other countries.\n\nThis will improve diplomatic ties, improve the economic position of these countries and weaken US influence.

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau from the U.S. Very kind words and extremely helpful information that we all need to hear from a political leader that is talking to us without all the rhetoric and childish behavior. DT is extremely wrong and ignorant. Many Americans stand with Canada, Ukraine and Mexico. God bless you and world peace for all of us.

There is no economic war! A war is a war. The tarrifs is a fuse for an escalation, and this is likely what Trump plans. I wouldn't be surprised that the former suggested a partnership to Putin to militarely attack Canada, and the world, by the way. Lets think about this. One day, people from US may wake up with all your money in cripto money not belonging to US anymore. No need to be a psychic or prophet to see this coming.
