If it isn't obvious to everyone by now, it should be. Trump works for Putin, not for the people of the USA.

Hey Canada/Trudeau if you don’t want the tariffs from President Trump then remove your limiting factors on American goods to equal the playing field! Maybe these tariffs and our President may finally get you to allow into Canada as much as we do into the USA! Trying to play a game of tariff against President Trump will not do Canadians any good. This is part of the reason you won’t be the tyrant dictator you once enjoyed being. Not to mention the Canadian government should be doing a lot better on stopping the cartels and their POS fentanyl from coming into their country as well as across into the US!

I’m wondering…since all that trump had implemented do not make sense to anyone, just WHAT is trump’s purpose in souring great ties with allies economically n militarily?? To align USA towards Russian goals??

God, trump is so mad. It's sad really, USA was our friend.

Russia has successfully taken control over the USA thanks Mr. Trump

Really over 50 percent vote for this. It would be funny if It's not so sad in the same time. For now, it will work for the USA, but the boomerang will fly back. Your Partner realize now finally that the US is not trustful anymore. They need a bit of time to prepare but if it's done, America is isolated (ok Russia and North Korea will still like you). The world continue rotating, with or without the USA. But maybe It's what the American wants so it's fine. But Trump's territorial claims are a shame. Regards from Germany.

Donald Trump just conducted a strike on USA.

This is exactly why Putin did everything in his power to make sure Trump will be selected. Divide et Impera. Russians and Chinese definitely know how to do it. They know the only way USA and west will crumble is FROM INSIDE.

I live in the USA. I believe this is what needs to happen in order to show Trump just how terrible he is at his job. He is ruining our country. We love you, Canada. We are so sorry that the majority voted this buffoon into our government. It's embarrassing and it's scary.

It's about money. Specifically Donald Trump getting as much money as possible from this term. Putin likely told him to make sure to distance America from its allies, so that he can use the USAs military gizmos to expand his mission to take over Ukraine amd any other country he wants. All this in exchange for making him and his cronies filthy rich. Trump keeps dropping clues about the plan. Elon, created Doge to weaken the economy even further so that the USAs assest are devalued and he can officially the US oligarchy. He's been in talks with Putin, we've seen them together. So now this Trump Gold card, is a way in for more oligarchs from Russia specifically to sweep up the remaining industries at a fraction of what they used to be valued. Then the USA will be the western arm of Putins empire. Since he made sure to obliterate all friendly relationships the US had with the western world, the other countries won't do anything to help the US so as to avoid all out war. Trump will then walk off into the sunset as one of the richest, if not the richest, man on earth.

TRUMP IS A DOUCHE!!! HE CAN NOT EVEN RUN A VODKA COMPANY, A CASINO, AN AIRLINE COMPANY, HE HAS TANKED THEM ALL, WAISTING DADDIES MONEY. IGNORE THE USA. PARTNER WITH THE EU AND OTHER COUNTRIES. HE IS GOING TO TANK OUR COUNTRY ANY WAY YOU LOOK AT IT. NOT YOUR PROBLEM! SAVE YOURSELF!

POTUS Trump is making irreparable blunders on key geopolitical issues like Ukraine, Gaza, trade wars with friendly trading nations. He is systematically destroying the 80 years old US foreign policy and global standing as a democracy that was instrumental for building trust and confidence on USA at the global stage.\n\nTragically, under the so called MAGA mantra he will destroy not only US economy but also of the global economy with his scandalous and outrageous protectionist trade policies and geopolitical blunders.

I was thinking after how trump went to town on Zelensky, which was disgusting.\nWhy give the US access to minerals in Ukraine, disconnect from USA and do the deal with EU nations.

I maybe an ignorant on politics , but what happens when USA , well not USA but the Trump administrations has caused so much damage to the country to the point where other maybe most of his allies start taking responses such as that of Canada , and escalate to the point where perhaps USA lose most of his allies at least important allies such as Canada, the support of the global geopolitics , I Maine that scenario for a moment wouldn't that give Trump an excuse to align even more openly with Putin? I mean why would Trump want that at all who knows but he is certainly aligning with Russia just not openly at least that's what a lot of these decisions he has made recently seem to suggest I mean a lot of the consequences of those decisions and acting really seem to benefit someones agenda and to me a politics ignorant seems to be Putin ... Am I too crazy for thinking and feelings like that???

Trump is putins puppet ,orders from Moscow taken and acting according to the orders.No more beating around the bush.He is the worse enemy USA has and he is in the Oval Office.God help us all.

Trump is comprimised. Wake up USA.

Trump is the worst enemy of the usa and the rest if the wordl

I love a country where people can speak two languages seamlessly. Trump ordered that the language of USA is English only! How small…

The Nazi dictator in Canada just started a trade war against the USA. Ask Trump he will confirm it.

Trump is making the USA the titanic. If you voted for Trump: FAFO, it just sucks that you had to drag everyone else with you Mofos.

It's only a matter of time and America, the USA, will become North Mexico and Trump made it all possible

Everyone Google Canadian tariffs on USA before Trump presidency. ?

Americans take note. \nCanada has a small population. It is a trading nation. Canada does not pretend to other countries that it is a friend while behaving in treacherous ways. Your minions and hypocrites, Vice President James David Vance and Senator Lindsey Graham should also take note. \nCanada and the United States have been trading with each other for over 170 years. Circumstances and proximity made Canada rely on trading with its neighbour, the USA. In 2024, 75.9% of Canada's total exports went to the United States. \nWas it convenience or laziness that made it so, or Canadians’ trust in America being a fair partner? \nPresident Donald J Trump, you have insulted Canadians and the whole United States will harvest the consequences. \nYou had negotiated the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) calling USMCA the best deal, and recently you called your deal the worst deal. \nYou can be the Manchurian Candidate as much as you want. You seek to destroy Canada. Go ahead, do your worst. Keep being manipulated by the Putin and Musk of the world. \nThis is the last time you will use this closeness between Canada and the USA to hurt Canada this way. Does not matter how long it will take, Canada will diversify its trading practice to foolproof itself from future fools like you, elected to the oval office. \nNeighbours, Canadians will remain, there is no way of moving Canada to a different place on this planet’s map. Canada may remain an economic partner, but a close friend, you can forget it. \nThere is a motto on the licence plates of vehicles of Québec (in case you might not know Donald, it is a province of Canada, not part of your fantasy 51st state). Since 1978 the motto says: “Je me souviens”. In English it translates into “I remember”. Canadians will remember what America is doing to them.

From USA go Canada! Put it up Trumps butt!

We should all of us around the world , Canada Mexico Eu China ect boycott all together USA at once Till the Tangerine Tyran felt humiliated as Zelinsky was On that day , and please You MAGA fashists keep Your red stupid caps when you cross your border , We will treat you as you deserve as Trump treat the rest of the World , And for the others Artists , Humanists numerous good Americans come to EU or Canada whe have free healtcare that works way better that in Us , good food , culture and cool unarmed peaple to hang with . Your welcome and we know how terrible is fashisme America Rebel You !!!

Ohhh y'all Canadian Trudeau want to work with us ..ok then help the USA from having Cartel's from crossing fentanyl n trafficking from your country to our country from the border. You can do that right now then Trump will take off the tariffs on you

There was no reason for these tariffs against Canada. Our closest neighbor and ally. Unreal! Trump is doing exactly what he has been instructed to do, to divide the USA. Both nationally and globally. Putin must be patting himself on the back for a job well done. Disgusting Republicans.

Trump on day ONE gave tax breaks to the richest (includes him!), he sold your federal government to Elon so he can issue contracts to himself, he has insulted, alienated and threatened allies (ex-allies now) and he made it known that he stands with dictators like Kim Jong and Putin. Yet millions of you would probably vote for him again. Not sure if USA can redeem itself.

a historian on LCI 4 months ago explains why Trumps admirers the KGB= RUSSIA, that have pulled him out of debt and has been grooming him since the 80’s. He is turning the USA into a Russian annexe

Electricity shift be cut i mediately to every state that get electric power from Canada trump don't care about USA he love RusiA

Close the Canadian border to all USA businesses and citizens. The only way Trump will listen.

I still wonder, what Putin has on Trump? What can be so bad, that he turns USA into circus act in few months.

Hahahah what do you expect from the USA? the USA has a felon as a president. Who said Trump is a smart individual/ businessman? Get ready my fellow Americans, this is gonna be tough……????

???Now the USA is not a reliable country nor a reliable seller, so Trump is destroying his own country. Besides this crazy tax-tariff thing, now the whole world has seen that Trump has removed the military aid to Ukraine... so the whole world has seen that if you buy weapons to the USA or you use them, the USA will extort you or leave you stranded even in dangerous situations. So now NOBODY is going to buy weapons to the USA, and considering that the American economy massively relies on its military industry, this can cause a huge collapse. Other countries and other markets will step up and take the position of the USA in the market and the world, because other countries are reliable, especially those in Europe and Canada, and the USA is not.

I am Canadian and I am envious of Americans because you have a leader who can stand for you guys, Canada’s economy has been suffering with his leadership even before Trump was elected but he is supporting /funding war , giving out tax payers to refugees he has been bringing who don’t contribute to tax. Hear him more concerned to Americans as opposed to announcing to us Canadians what is his plan for Canada to address tariff! Let USA do their thing , improve your leadership and don’t rely on other countries plans/decisions, unfortunately we are affected but it’s your job to make strategies of how you would address that. Dont blame Trump you could have thought of plans prior implementation

President Trump a smart man? Well, this sounds like a joke!! President Trump is just stabbing his allies in the back in a world that's strictly globalized!! He's just demolishing decades and decades of friendly relationships and cooperation with the free western world, mining alliances ( NATO ), without a reasonable justification! He's actually isolating the USA from the rest of the civil world! Greetings from Italy, EUROPE!!

The difference between a lunatic and Trump is that within Trump must be at least 10 more other lunatics. Sad for the American people who will suffer from this trade war. And Mr Trudeau speaks like a respectfull president from a civilized country. How is it possible that lunatics can become a president from the USA?

His only mistake was not to talk to his Canadian in the same way about the external diplomatic journey. Most Canadians voted him out because most Canadians have little to no idea how it is arround the globe, missing an overall perspective in their critic to Trudeau. Let me tell you that a lot of people changed their minds looking at his reaction to external threath posed by newly elect Trump. I allways knew Trump was bad news but never did I see a country turn it's administrative logistic into a pure representation of the cult Donald made into place. I hope my fellow friendly american get loud enought to be herd from their respective administrative leaders in your political system. Be critical, this is not what the USA is sopposed to be about.

As a EU citizen i welcome Canada to the EU, i know they are considering to Join the United States of Europe, and they have borders with one of our Union States, Denmark with Denmark's province: Greenland, and so they are more than qualified and welcome to join our United States of Europe.\nI know Canada is shifting its trade, it had previously with the USA to EU, and we welcome our new partner in trade aswell, Everything that you previously had from the USA can be now provided by Europe, and with No tarifs at all.\nWelcome Canada to the EU! United we all stand for a FREE world! No to Trump's national socialism, no to putin's dictatorship! they became our enemies!

Trump WhAnt USA to become one of the poorest nation on the word to help Putin to get more power over usa

It’s not only Canadians boycotting American products. The rest of world is doing the same. USA under Trump is hostile

Trump elon musk dangerous for nation also usa public

The data & facts show Trump doesn’t care is factual. As a Canadian I want Canada to move on away from USA. There’s a big world out there

Dont put Tariffs on the USA as they are passed onto the end user/consumer which are the American people. Put the prices up on your sale of electricity, oil and gas 25% that the US government buys, so it hits them first and they will think twice. ..... Trump never mentioned cost of living in his acceptance speech which had us wondering. This is why.

Trump is the one pushing anti Canadian sentiments for no reason at all. I am on the side of Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, Panama, Greenland, Denmark, etc.. I am Puertorriqueña and I regret that my beautiful Island and it’s people will be sinking alongside the USA.

Trudeau I wish you were our president instead of the dumb sh*t head that we have! You made an agreement with Trump then he turns and stabs you in the back. That is what he planned to do to Ukraine. The drugs are made in the USA and sold all over . We know this how ever Republikkkans have to have someone to blame other than their own children that are buying and using the drugs.

There is no reason for Trudeau to be even as polite as he was (Trump is, in fact, dumb), considering that Trump continually calls the Prime Minister “Governor Trudeau” as a taunt, meaning that in Trump’s mind, Canada is already a state of the USA, not a sovereign nation.

Y'all Canada going to put tariffs on USA really y'all still dnt get it right you dumb Canadian Trudeau the reason Trump put a tariffs again let me explain myself it's because of Cartel's for stoping crossing fentanyl from your border if you dnt stop from y'all part of the bargain of letting Cartel's crossing drugs n trafficking from ur country to USA country ok

Trump is an utter moron … USA media supported his crap to give a simple narrative to would be ignorant voters to get trump in, simply because he’s news for their networks. The rest of the world are horrified that “Celebrity States of America” ?? is crumbling with awful integrity in the world…. ?

Trudeau screwed Canadians & they couldn’t wait to get him out of office!! \nCanada is broke and can’t afford 25% tariffs. All Canada has to do is open business in USA!\nMade in the USA ?? \nCanada gave 20billion to Ukraine vs USA giving over 150 billion plus militaryequipment equipment. Ukraine realizes Trump was right, The WAR needs to end. ????????????
