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

lets see which country suffers first. You put all these restrictions on American visitors . jack your prices on exports for the last 12 yrs. keep your products and your terrorist gateway. when don't need your shit and we don't want your shit. not even gonna say good luck but good riddens.

Are you people stupid. Canada will fail in 12 months. Hence the reason he said they can send us into economic ruin.. when the hell is the last time you bought a product from Canada? exactly

Boycott all American companies and products!

Americans buy American made products; simple.

This guy forgot he needs our products more than we need Canada's..

Trudeau is a Liar and a Thief. He has only Hurt Canadians. Now he is trying to pretend he is Worth Keeping around. We all know he is not. They have had Tariffs on American Products for Decades already Stop acting like a tough guy.

Canda sell your products to us in asia there is bigger markets here leave US in the box donald has created.

Canada's Tariff applied to the United States will cause some price inflation, price increase, for a short time until the United states establish compaines to produce the same good and services that were tariffed. Once goods and service producted by the United States exceeds the Canadian goods and services that were tarriffed, the prices will come down. President Donald Trump did this to grow United States and Employment and cause price deflation over the long term. Hopefully Canada has the resources to do the same. I hope every body is blessed through Jesus Christ's name. Amen.

Subsidies Canadian products

Boycott all products from US.

Sell your product to uk and EU simple don’t be bullied by the trump he’s trying to weaken you so he can propose a state for your country don’t deal with them sell your product to uk eu etc they can’t be trusted no more and I love America ?? and there people but this has gone terribly wrong now he’s in power and by the way I wanted trump to win but now he’s lost me ?

We don’t dislike American people; we dislike Donald Trumps attitude towards Canada! ?? \n\nWe’ve already started to boycott American food & other products in our grocery stores! \n\n“Canadians are reasonable, and we are polite; but we will not back down from a fight . \n\nThere are no winners in a trade war!”\n~Justin Trudeau\n\nAmericans know that the issue is tRump & not the American people!\n\nGod help us all!

Trump did this to cause disinflation. Too many consumptions and too many cheap Chinese products in the market. Business owners are profiting at an all time high taking advantage of this inflation. Trump's move may cause short-term pain but there it will help your wallets in the long term including home prices and rates. Trump aim is to bring down interest rates basically.

Had a very good run at Costco today March 4. Bought all local, Canadian, Chinese and Moroccan products. - Not a single American made product. Since American want to buy American so badly, the stores can return American stuff back to the USA.

I will buy Canadian ?? products from now on even it’s not that much choice here in Hong Kong. I will make the effort! Bye bye Americans stuff !

Why don't he talk about the tariffs canada has had on U.S. products for years ? Trump evened the playing feild. Fck trudeau and canada !!

Trump should know that retaliation from Canada and China and Mexico brings down USA to its knees, From now on I don’t buy any American products as a Canadian, Whole Canadian are united behind their government in this matter.

Why is this dude still representing Canada? \n\nTwo months ago many of his key cabinets members resigned because Justin’s policies are destroying Canadians. Rightfully, he resigned. Dude needs to go away. Stop making Canada worse than what it has become under his horrendous leadership.\n\nThings happening:\n\nThe massive influx of foreigners, both legally and illegally into Canada.\n\nAffordable housing for native Canadians do not exist, people are leaving the country.\n\nHi mortgage payment or monthly rent are too high.\n\nFood prices are not coming down.\n\nSalaries are not keeping up with inflation.\n\nThe Canadian dollar keeps tanking.\n\nAs the leader of the country, he’s doing nothing to stop increasing violent crime.\n\nIncreasing amount of drugs in cities and suburbs.\n\nFinally, he’s pledging billions of dollars to Ukraine, when that money is needed at home.\n\nJustin is too emotional to deal with Trump.\n\nTrump complains about the trading balance between the two nations, $100 billion in favor of Canada.\n\nThe request is simple, import more American products, or export less products to America. But the imbalance has to stop.\n\nSame with Mexico, trading balance with Mexico is almost $200 billion in favor of Mexico. The imbalance has to stop. \n\nThe US economy is bleeding by trading with allies and partners, it’s fighting for its financial wellbeing. It is not some bs from the orange man, it is real.\n\nOf course Canada, Mexico, Europe and others want business as usual… and why wouldn’t they? ?

It is time for Canada to fully embrace China and India as suppliers and business partners. \nChina can supply nearly everything that America can, faster, cheaper and a far better product.\nAmerica is a dying Country, thier citizens for years have elected the very same kind of people into their Governments. Old Stale Egotistical people who have no concern but getting re-elected.

Boycott USA Products! Cancel all US travel plans!!

United States production is stepping up. Canada is fucked.

ALL retail businesses in Canada must clearly indicate which products are made in the USA so that we can effectively boycott them.

Canada started a trade war a long time ago. \nDairy Products: \nCheese - 245% \nMilk - 270% \nButter - 298% \nPoultry - 238% \nEggs - 163% \nBarley - 160% \nWheat - 94% \nSugar - 265% \nPeanut Butter - 295% \nRice - 150% \nVegetables - 100% \nFish Products - 100% \nLumber - 20% \nShoes - 30% \nCocoa - 30% \nMetals - 25% \nWool - 30% \nTobacco - $100+% \n \nTrump is actually being VERY NICE with a 25% tariff

As a European I stand with Canada. I lived in the Us and many Americans are wonderful. However this administration has lost its values and soul. Canada and the E.U should work together closely. And why not join the E.U? Our values are the same. And We must be united against he great imperialists threats coming from Russia and, now, America. \nAs a consumer I decided to boycott American products whenever possible. I had planned to travel to America on vacation but I will cancel that for the next 4 years at least. I hope many will join us in the “boycott American products” movement?

I’m from england ????????????????????? boycotting American products everyone around the world should do the same

U guys should tariff 50% on apple products to Canada

Look at our grocery store shelves...so many products come from Canada.

I'll still buy your products! I wish we had a leader who could speak like an intelligent adult. Bravo, President Trudeau!

I'm from the UK and I am very impressed with the Canadian Prime Minister's response, what a contrast from the felon in the White House. I have been researching which Canadian products are available here and will be switching to them and away from U.S products. And to ordinary Americans who are as disgusted by their leadership as so many of us around the world are, I hope you will be able to reclaim your country back from Trump and MAGA who are doing so much harm to you.

Remove all American products from Canada. The US ultra Rich just want more money for themselves.

OK woke Trudeau, who is about to get replaced - remove tariffs targeting US businesses for the last 3 decades, like the 200%+ tariff on dairy products from USA, then we can talk\n\n...and YES we will deal with Russia because they are the only country who didn't take a red cent of aid from USA - their fertilizer is far cheaper than Canada's fertilizer.\n\nI'm speaking to Canadians - especially the truckers whose bank accounts Trudeau froze - vote out the woke Canadian government!\n\nAs far as CNN goes, you are traitors - you would betray USA because the dummy you wanted to win failed against Trump.\n\nThe stock market going down has far more to do with short supply of chips - that is why tech companies were hit heaviest. Last time I checked, Canada doesn't make chips.

GTFO Turdo you ruined Canada, manufacturing and production all companies are leaving Canada. Canadians are leaving Canada long long before the tariffs took place. \nAnd by the way American consumer will be paying Tariffs so don’t you dare to play the victim.

Is Trump playing a game or what? He would like to attract Russia to separate it from China definitively, it is understandable but what is he trying to do here with Canada and Mexico ?\nThey import more American products than any other country. WTF

I'm only going to buy Canadian products from now on to support Trudeau and the amazing Canadian people ❤ Vive le Canada! ???

This doesnt bother me. Im pretty sure Canada already Tarrifs US products. And Mr. Trudeau has some incorrect information on the illegal percentages along with fentyal statistics. something along the lines of 30% comes across from the Canadian border.

Donald clearly is ahead of the rest of us in the fight against climate change, understanding as he does that a painful recession will lead to a deep reduction in the production of greenhouse gases as people cut back on their spending. If only we could see it as clearly as he does. Surely he will make his intentions clear by undertaking a farsighted austerity program, limiting his flights to Mar A Lago for golf outings.

Can hardly wait until Canada bankrupts the USA. Cut all trade with a war mongering nation, Canadians stand strong and free, we will prevail against the likes of Trump, Vance and musk who was never elected to office. Ontario just canceled starlinks, we don’t buy American products, the best thing is to shut our borders to American citizens and trade period. Just wait and see USA what we do!

Canadian people, please, please stop buying American products, cancel subscription for Netflix and other platforms, encourage Canadians businesses. This is not to hurt America people, it’s to send a message to the Trump administration that we are not going kneel to a bully. We need to be political and use our purchasing power to defend Canadians interests

Great speech, at last a Leader standing up to trump and his cronies. Canada needs you so a shame you are not continuing. As a born Brit but now an Aussie my husband and I applaud you. The Democratic world needs to stand up to trump and musk. Canadians are tough and just know that many of us are with you in spirit and wherever we live are not buying US products either. Go Canada ?? and the Canadians ?

Our truck was made in Canada, one of the best vehicles we have every had. It's almost 30 years old and still runs great with very few problems. We trust products from Canada. Stupid is as stupid does!

Canada has had tariffs on American products for over 10 years, but the United States has no tariffs on Canada until today. Canada should think about that.

So blistering! That guy just scared the crap out of all Americans. ☠️ Build factories in America if you want to sell products in America.

Any way living in Canda is a lot safer than Us. Canadian products far better than Us products and halthier. Health system is way better than Us health care.

Canada should put another 10% on energy exports to US.... Actually, put export taxes on every product that US needs and cannot immediately find somewhere else.

Canada has known for decades that we have put too many eggs in one basket - selling our resources primarily to the USA. We've had tariffs before and worked with them. Yet we still keep selling to the USA. This time is different. In conjunction with the tariffs, we have an American administration that is flat out insulting Canada. Saying we wouldn't exist economically if it wasn't for the USA. It's at a time when the USA won't promise not to use military force to annex land (Greenland) from a decades old ally. A time when clearly Putin is calling in his chips for whatever he has over Donald Trump. Canadians have had enough. We are directing our governments, provincial and federal, to finally, finally break from the north-south trade links. We need to establish stronger east-west trade links. The resources we have are wanted by many countries if the USA does not want them. It does mean much work within Canada. We need to get our AB-BC pipeline finished as well as the new sea terminal so we can ship our crude oil and natural gas to Japan and if need be, to China. We finally need to get out pipeline to the Atlantic coast finished so we can supply the UK and EU with our products. We need to double our rail capacity for shipping potash, uranium, rare minerals to Asia or Europe. Just as Trump hopes for a golden age of American companies coming home and building new plants in the USA, this will be a golden decade for Canada to create transportation corridors to get our resources to other buyers. America will have to look elsewhere for his raw materials. And we all know what that is - RUSSIA. They've already offered their rare minerals and crude oil. This is all clearly a well thought out scenario from the people working behind Trump to dismiss America's allies and trading partners - have us turn against the USA - as the excuse to open the door to Russian imports into the USA.

America has too much pride and ego in being a super power we should all boycott american products, to show them that they also need to cooperate with the world and bring them down to earth

Donald thinks he is running a business with profit and loss. Does he reliaze that by increasing Tariffs he is hurting Americans? Eventually, Canada will find other markets to sell their products.

Aren't the tariffs paid by the people importing the product, so doesn't this mean the governments are just making more money from their own people? Seems like they are robbing the people and using nationalism to get the peoples approval to Rob them.

very proud of how Canada is handling this. I have stopped buying US products since Trump and started buying Canadian and European and I think it will only grow as a movement. Go Canada, keep it up!
