I guess Trudeau what to FAFO like Zelensky did. You don't win against Trump. Trudeau is back off like they all do. His country doesn't want or need his stupid ass. Now he's going call OUR PRESIDENT Donald?? Wrong move.

Canada has a population of 40 million while the U.S. has 330 million. Take a wild guess why Canada has a trade surplus with the United States.

Somewhat right but not exactly right. According to Trump admin, Trump is actually trying to stop the circumvention of Chinese goods and Chinese drugs coming from Canada. Trudeau promised Trump to work on the drug issue, but I guess he did not if we are seeing the significant import tax on Canada now. And come on Trudeau, you dislike Trump and aren't exactly his friend. You talked back on him on many international stages. Anyways, I wish you two get along eventually and hope the same for US and Canada.

No winners in a trade war? Guess it’s easy to say when the trade leans in your favor and it’s under attack to equal it out. Must not understand how reciprocal tariffs work. You tax us we tax you. We’re looking for fair trade. Your retaliation is welcoming the escalation of a trade war.

I guess it is a hard “No” to Canada becoming the newest US state,then?

Lol this country worth fighting for, but u have no military... i guess not worth that much lmao. Idiots

Let's compare US vs CA military budget and guess who needs who

This is a clear indication that the US is partnering with Russia and is now part of the Evil Empire. I guess Americans need to start learning Russian now.

To my mind, Trump would have started the trade war with Canada no matter what measures Canada undertakes. My guess is the underlying motive behind the whole theatre is to somehow pressurize Canada into complete submission. Remember his comments about Canada should become the 51st state? I presume that in reality his eyes are set on Canada‘s vast resources and the potential north-west passage which would be a fantastic gift to his master Putin.

Guess what America will cancel those orders and we will buy locally. Thank you

The only thing D.T. is doing is ruining everything with his politic. (But I guess we all know about it).\n\nThat's the one whom signed the Free trade agreement between US, Canada and Mexico. The same guy whom now pretexting this agreement is not good for US. \nHe destroys all the friendship with US allies and what has been built for decades.\nIn 4 years, what wil be left over?\n\nAmericans will suffer the incompetence of this guy.\nIf only it was not real, we could either think it's a fiction or a joke, unfortunetly neither of both of them; that's a reality.

8:59 yeah he’s gonna be for yall just like he was for the truckers protesting freezing their bank accounts ? game on I guess idk this shit is all funny let’s see how this turns out

Canada is a puppet state; it agreed with every sanction the US put on other countries, but guess what, it's your turn now.

Canadians are polite? Trust worthy ?. Guess when you tell a lie long enough you believe it

Oh no! Where ever shall I buy a curling broom now!!!!? Or the worst cigarettes you've ever had. Guess I'll have to buy my maple syrup from VT now.

The USA wants War. That’s why we are cutting programs. To help pay for it. I’m guessing

Trumps net worth increased drastically by launching Trump coin. Guess who most probably bought most of Trumps meme coin? Guess who is going to dump Trump coin when Trump does not act according to the Kremlin agenda?

7:48 welp, guess we're going to war then. Jesus fuck JUSTIN, President Trump has literally just this week made it clear how important respectful speech is to him (frankly, I agree). This global politics thing isn't a first-name affair, and it's one thing for the media to have a snarky quip about a world leader, but quite another for the leader of another country to declare it publicly. You've essentially left him no choice but to stand firm -- there is no wiggle room now. You and Zelenskyy may well have lit the final fuse for World War III. Cheers bud.

Where are the Moscow Agents Governing Americans in these comments. I mean MAGA. They seem to have gone quieter in the comments sections lately. I wonder why. I guess they do not want to hear we told you so.

All about border. I guess you like illegals and fentonol.

I guess no one has played poker before.

I guess he doesn't understand to make a deal it takes two why wouldn't Trump talk to Putin people are f****** stupid...

I stand with you............whatever tha means for these american patriots!\nI guess sloganeering is cheap.....doesn't cost anything.....and makes one feel good tanding against own president!??

I guess I'll start building RF power generator for my house.

You all are having a cock fight while the people will suffer with the spike of prices. Guess I’m going on a fucking ramen diet. ?

Trudeau is just hurting his own people, but I guess thats nothing new at this point. Candadian inflation will go up and America will not be greatly effected. If anything we can just import those same goods from somewhere else at a better price. Countries around the world are lining up to take these contracts as we speak.

I respect you so much for this, Mr. Trudeau and I do not blame you. I wish the people could do something, but the people have spoken and no one listens. We are just trapped here. I feel powerless to do anything. I can’t afford to fight in oligarch I have to survive this country and work my ass off just to live paycheck to paycheck. I haven’t got time for this shit. I guess I’m gonna have to quit my job and become a full-time political activist! That’s not realistic I have children. I have an autistic grandchild who is also blind that I’m raising I ain’t got time for this shit but you gotta do what you gotta do. It’s time for a revolution.

Guess who doesn’t give a fuck? Republican Americans. You can be the 51st state tomorrow and feel fuckin honored.

Didn’t Trump supporters brag about him not starting any wars? I guess trade wars don’t count?

I guess he forgot that MAGA doesn't care about the facts...

This is gonna hurt the whole world and that’s what all the intentions are. He is a control monger. I hate to disappoint him. We all come on the Earth, the same way kicking peeing pooping ourselves with nothing guess what we leave the Earth the same way. Nothing makes anybody better than anyone else and until the people on this planet learned that this is gonna go on and on because this shit you don’t learn from it. It just continues to come every 40 years or so. We’re supposed to learn from our history, not repeat it. It’s ridiculous.

Russia definitely have something over Trump and I'm guessing tis *CHILDREN*. UNDERAGE GIRLS AND/OR BOYS! What else could it be . . . ???

Well we cant go to Canada now if your passport says American, i guess Mexico will be next, those islands off our coast are looking better and better to live

What an intelligent president ??\nBut guess what?? American people will just roll over and accept whatever Vladimir Trump do to them \nWe sitting on our couch laughing ? \nThey voted for him it’s not even been 3 months \nI am hoping and praying it hits American people exactly where it’s gona hurt \n“ their pockets” \nMake \nAmerica \nStupid \nAgain \nCanada please trade more with European Union and Britain \n??????

I guess USA citizens and Trudeau simply aren't getting it, Trump wants these tariffs because he WANTS to tax the heck out of the ordinary US citizen in order to pay for his tax cuts for his Billionaire friends.....Canada could have COMPLETELY stopped Fentanyl trafficking and Trump STILL would have invoked tariffs.....just like no matter what Zelenskyy could do, he was determined to make an EXCUSE to stop supporting Ukraine's war efforts.......in addition, if you didn't know better, it appears that Trump wants to team up with Russia......??????

Where are the people who voted him? Let me guess, hiding underneath a rock. Must be so embarrassed for voting for that clown. Trump is all about freedom of speech. Stand up and protest this fool. He will sell out the American people to Putin. As a Canadian thank you world for all the support. We all have a duty to fight evil. Donald is the devil in sheeps clothing.

If less than 1% of fent is seized at the canadian boarder.. then why have the past 10 largest fent dealers been mostly from canada? We just busted a super lab near Edmonton a few months ago where they were making enough to kill every american... I guess that all stayed in canada though right? Canada is a fucking joke. These clowns know very well about it but they are on the pay roll some how

To CNN- it would have been nice if you had had the patience to let us watch the whole press conference uninterrupted. I guess I will have to go to the CBC,

Didn't JT quit on his country back in January? Somebody should tell Canada they're allowed to replace him now! I guess they forgot already ?

I thought this fairy resigned, I guess he wants to totally destroy Canada before he goes

Justin was wrong about one thing tho, that orange monster is NOT a smart man. I get it, gotta be polite I guess.

Why is it that it takes the leader of a foreign country to tell us how truly stupid our president is? Blinded by the proximity I guess. Hats off to Trudeau. He gets it right.

This breakup with Canada will be used to justify getting much needed minerals and such from... yes you guessed right, Russia and Ukraine, as soon as we abandon them to the butcher. Their intentions and motives are incredibly transparent and yet, the streets are not filled with protests, yet. Disband both political parties and start with new push forward with the great experiment of a melting pot society based on democracy where education is the primary moving force.

I guess it only makes sense to a russian asset. Canada, I am truly sorry! We elected a traitor.\nWell, maga, you sure showed us libs, am I right?

Prime Minister Trudeau, thank you for showing the world how a true gentleman and leader talks to the leaders of another country in spite of the irrational, immoral and turncoat actions from a former Ally; our (?) new MAGA President Donald Trump. It's so surreal that this narcissistic, psychopathic person actually won the Presidential election (again). All I can say is I am sorry, embarrassed, and ashamed of my broken country's politicians in Washington, D.C. at present. Many more Americans support the democratic policies than the anti-democratic that Trump's regime is spouting all around the world. Just know this isn't what most Americans believe and we don't support his thoughts and actions. We are trapped in this nightmare that makes no sense. We hope this is just a temporary change. These new policies benefit no one but the oligarchs of America (and world). I guess we are just going to have to take our punishment for the few years for not being able to prove that these people in Washington care NOTHING for anyone, including their own constituent, and are hell bent on taking down and destroying our American, Democratic way of life and we, the people, are helpless to stopping it dissolve and crumble. Thank you Canada for always being such great neighbors. Good luck, peace out!

Yeah I’m guessing if trump made that call this guy was doing something nefarious behind the scenes. His people hate him. He’s a baby dictator. He’s in no position to lecture anyone about governments hurting their people!

It will take a long time to build trust again dear americans. I guess your Stock market will fall soon

I guess we have to get used to living with rapist and child molesters getting whatever they want. Since Trump literally got the sex offender brothers in the country so they skip out on justice just like Donnie got to do. That's the country we live in. A country where literally rapist and child molesters are granted safe passage and decent people with integrity are talked to like criminals. It's absolutely shameful to be an American

I voted for this and Canada is crying they don't have the tax payer teet anymore and guess what, now you can figure it out for yourselves.

If by a smart man, they mean Donald Trump is a conniving, vicious, crooked convict, sure, I guess he’s smart.
