Guy prorouged parliament and steps down from party leadership. Why are you still running that mouthpiece of yours? Election NOW! Don't wanna hear another word from him. You destroyed our country! Not don! The rise in our cost of living under you far exceeds this little tiff with America. Don't let the wool be pulled over your eyes yet again people.

K, so you’re gonna stop the carbon tax now then, right?????? \nlol\nI didn’t think so. This guy is so full of it. He is the reason why we are suffering as a country. Not Donald Trump. Donald is just looking out for his own country. It’ll help them, it’ll hurt us because you’re gonna let it hurt us. We are already taxed in every humanly way possible. What’s next? I’m sure you’ll think of something to tax. \nThis man has ruined what’s left of Canada. Don’t fall for this rhetoric little speech people. \nOpen your minds and eyes!

I stand 100% behind the man i voted for. Trump is putting America first! I am done being blind to the swamp and their idiocy. We may hurt for a little while, but America will build back better. Stronger. We dont need Canada. They are mad about tarrifs but have them on their side. Common sense. Im loving this new era.

Go Trump! .. our government is running scared...trudy looks like a petrified little man Lol

Forever tarnishing the good name of the USA, Trump is a Traitor, History will show him to have commited Treason.\nThe rest of the world sees' Trump as Putin's little bitch.\nChina is laughing, next he will be handing Xi Jinping Taiwan.\nTrump will be remembered for all the wrong reasons', and American's will wonder how they let him sell them out.

I will take it. I will take it. \n \n- I will take the Ring to Mordor. \nThough... I do not know the way.\n I will help you bear this burden, as long as it is yours to bear. \nIf by my life or death I can protect you, I will. \n You have my sword. \n And you have my bow. \nAnd my ax. \nYou carry the fates of us all, little one. \n If this is indeed the will of the Council, then Gondor will see it done.

So trudeau is more or less saying that he did a little bit to do something against drug. Like he is giving justifications. Like in scho. Lol. Trudeau justinfication??

Trudeau is a snake. Remember that. He’s scapegoating Trump. If Trudeau was a great leader Canada wouldn’t be in the situation it’s in where he’s whining like a little b*tch. He should have done more years ago. He’s Canadas Biden and now like the lunatic left he’s blaming Trump.

The only thing that's going to pay for that little wagging d*ck power monger is The People. So proud of tariffs and snubbing cooperative relationship. All the leaders are like, 'I see your tariff and raise it 5%.' So proudly talking about agreements = tariffs. The only profiteers from this are gov'ts and bribe takers. Capitalism swallows itself.

My god man u have put your people in bad place little man you of all people American people will be fine

Ha Donald this is what a TRUE LEADER LOOKS AN SOUNDS LIKE AN THE ONE THAT YOU WILL NEVER EVER EVER BE . Donald set back in the corner and lesson to true leadership is . We as Americans will always stand with Canada an YOU STAND WITH RUSSIA, North Korea an other dictatorship countries. The America people will stand TOGETHER AS YOU STAND IN THE CORNER BY YOURSELF STOMPING YOUR LITTLE FEET .

I want this trade war, and I want Trudeau gone. I am from Canada. \nSo many people do not know about his government and the damage they caused.\nFacts little then 1% get scanned at ports. Canada does not screen airflights enough. \nAlso, Trudeau did not close the air down from covid to safe borders.\nTrudeau is lucky he is not behind bars the scandals he got away with is insane.

Trudeau you're such a little punk

Remember Trump and his little entourage and delusional supporters wanted this. Most Americans did not and do not all feel the same way.

Trudeau is just embarassing now, go away little blackfaced boy

Big bank take little bank but keep whining

Little Justin got spanked out of office. Those testosterone shots never took hold. Statehood for Canada.

You can tell by the comments these people are out of touch with reality. Trudeau took your freedom away, taxes you to death, and Crys like a sissy boy and you still lick his boots. Canada wouldn't be ?without the US. Your government has been living high on the hog off of old Uncle Sam and now that he is leveling the playing field you're squealing like little girls. Grow up!

Well it's about time Trudeau grew a pair...little too late for us to wanna keep him tho ?‍♀️

This is all because Melania looked at Trudeau like she never looked at trump. trump is a vile, petty, little man.

I think as an American that likes Canada to a certain point agro tourist spots there a little too isolated with there tiny bridges to get in and there pathetic security at there borders so maple syrup will be more expensive it just means the rest of the states that produce syrup will profit more we as Americans can do without the business of canada but Canada cant go without American support can survive with out Niagara Falls nope

I find it amusing??? Trudeau is a bafoon who is respected by noone, not even Canadians. And because if his foolishness in failing to meet Canada's onligation to NATO, there are now consequences, and he's whining like a little b***

As much as I like the message, I just find this is a waste of time to rationalize or reasoning with the orange clown and his uneducated base, like the clown said himself that he loves his uneducated supporters. Just return the favour. That's it. You can't fix stupid. Canada just needs to find more reliable and trust worthy partners. As much as I hate to say, US government can't be trusted. \n\nHey donald, little petty man with small hands. Glad that your trump towers in Toronto and Vancouver failed. You now try to avenge but you are making dumb mistakes to let personal touchy feelings to interfere with country affairs.

1% fentanyl seized at Canadian border. I'm a little more interested in what wasn't found and seized. 1% might prove they are doing a poor job?

The bot comments are so funny lol this little freak is cooked beyond belief

JUST PAY YOUR OWN WAY, LIKE WE DO!!! WHAT SHOULD WE DO WITH PUTIN?? MAKE HIM MAD??? PLEASE!! YOU'RE A LITTLE LATE AND DISRESPECTFUL!!!

??? Trudeau is a little limp wristed coward

Shame they didn't care about fentanyl when it was killing people off in BC for years before spreading, thousands of people had died. Shame they didn't do anything about the corrupt government that enabled it and the money laundering. Hard to believe they care when so little effort or attention was shown to get the BC government at the time to be accountable. It doesn't help that with our current justice system it's practically a revolving door unless you're screwing over some established monopoly, people who cause real harm are out on the streets in no time. People who accept bribes and allowed the deterioration to occur will never be dealt with and I don't see steps going on to prevent it from happening again. People with the money run the govt and screw us over.

will the costs of the goods go down or will they go up?\n\nit seems to me that there will be a winner and that will be the person who is already winning, not the average person. the wealthy have picked a pretty face to whisper sweet nothings to the public while they do everything they can to gorge themselves on us; their cattle.\n\nwe live in little boxes with water treated with chlorine and ammonia and only a short amount of time in the sun. hardly enough sun to grow your own vegetables or enough room to graze your own cattle.\n\nchlorine and ammonia inhibit the growth of plants

Heinous. He sounds like a whiny little girl.

Little to late bro

I effectively spent a chunk of my childhood in America with relatives. I treasured these memories, but now all the feelings of wonder and happiness when thinking of my visits to America have faded. Now I just think of how selfish it was to sabotage Canada. American private equities want to rock our system and buy up all they can and so I am happy we are watching for this. I think Donald did this to try and buy up Canadian companies. This should be made illegal. I am willing to suffer for up to pull the plug on all resources and energy going to America “suddenly” do they have no time to adapt and collectively suffer. We even produce the ingredient you need for your nuclear weapons and otherwise need to get this from Russia. Canada has the ability to help our allies get nuclear weapons to protect against “America as our #1 enemy now”. Will we share too secret info with you when Trump clearly seems to be working with Russia? Putin dream for NATO to break down and now Trump ours that I to action . Trump wants everyone to spend money on military to fuel the American military industrial complex, something each and every huge tech company you have participated. You have essentially been taken over by a global entity that doesn’t care about democracy. We are going to manufacture our own weapons to have zero dependency on America. That makes no sense to buy weapons from the country threatening to invade you. \n\nHow will America feel to be totally alone in the global stage all under the power of one unstable man with multiple personality disorders. Trump things Putin is Americas friend and meanwhile in Russian media America spoken of as enemy number one. Meanwhile, America is 30% full of people with such little education in politics that they do not even know what is considered red flags to democracy. The 20% needed to shift will see the light once the worst man made intentional recession begins and the billionaires buy up 30% of your homes and buildings. Nothing at all will be outside of billionaire and corporate control and now all your data is in AI. how did all American value fall in just one month. Anyone not questioning this now, ai promise you is being blackmailed or is corrupt. \n\nThe bureaucracy prevents dictatorship. Now Trump is removing this. Just listen to project 2025. America is fully on track.

At this present time and in this current governmental climate, I do believe that changing a leader now would hurt Canada. Trudeau has first hand experience and has dealt with Trump and his tantrums, this isn’t Trudeau’s first rodeo. I am concerned with Trump antics another leader could be influenced with charm and falsehoods which Trudeau has already confidently stood up against.\nAnd for a moment, let’s think a little bit further out of the box. This isn’t about fentanyl as Prime minster Trudeau pointed out. This is about making life for Canadians extremely difficult and chaotic. It’s to bring division between the United States and Canada, and with Trump joking and jokes are not jokes sometimes they become reality Canada being a 51st state. Trump Being friends with Putin, with Russian ships in our Arctic Ocean think on this for a minute. Putin decided to invade Ukraine to expand his make believe empire. President Trump and Vladimir Putin working together. Hasn’t Trump said he wants Canada to be part of the USA and wants our Prime Minister to be a governor how insulting. How very insulting to the Canadian people who not just live in Canada, but are also united Canadians.

This guys a joke it doesn’t matter if he cuts taxes for us by taxing you all instead of Americans we get less tax stuff go’s up a little but we don’t pay as much tax jobs will increase pay because there will be more jobs here your president is a joke I don’t know why I even clicked on this click bate stupid cnn

What a sad little character Trudeau is. Like a stray poodle in the rain. What were Canadians thinking ever voting for this has been party clown. You almost deserve what’s coming to you with this trade war. It’s gonna wreck your economy

A little too late Soy Boy.

The educated and thinking American people ( who are the majority of voters and unfortunately 1/3 did not vote) know that Donald Trump has lied to us. We understand that Canada has no fault and no role in contriving this trade war. We also know that the Fentanyl problem has little or nothing to do with Canada and that the majority of Fentanyl is brought into the USA by US citizens. Most American citizens do not want this. Donald Trump and is an opportunist. He does not care about the American people . He cares about himself and his money.

Trump have been president in a little over month by now, look at all the damage he's doing, and imagine this clusterf**k for the next three years and ten months ?

Sounds like a little boy crying for his mother.., seriously. Strategist and see how you can get your nation out from this. See how China did it. They have long diversified since Trump 1.0 into ASEAN countries, and ASIA, especially the mid east and Africa.

Watch out Trudeau, Donny might send his little boy JD to act tough and lecture you. \n\nVance and Trump are pathetic jokes of men.

this is war not against normal people but against a facist wannabe , run mr trump you and your little friends run you obviously dont care about our kids our families world peace you gotta go !!!!!!

This guy trudeau is an empty vessel just like the little rat zelensky, we will see you fight with the giant rattle snake trudeau

The border is a smoke screen for what Trump wants...our resources gor nothing. He says the US doesn't need anything, yet he wants, Canada, Greenland, Gaza, and is holding Aid over Ukraine's head for an unfair trade deal of resources. He wants everything his greedy little hands can grab. \n\nI am glad my government is getting more trustworthy trade partners because we should never be so reliant on trade with the US again. \n\nWe are boycotting US goods, services, and destinations. The bond will never be the same. Once you lose trust, it isn't so easy to ear it back. We can't trust Trump and who knows if the one after him will be any better.

I’m a 53 year old Canadian. I went to college on an athletic scholarship & lived there for 10 years after turned professional in my sport. Why, why, why - with all the problems going on in the world right now to tackle - why would you want to start a trade war with your closest trading partner & most loyal ally? Not to mention that your list of Allies is shrinking daily. This is not going to end well for either of us. \nI just arrived home from a trip to the grocery store - making sure nothing in my cart said “ made in the USA” on it due to the new tariffs that began today. \nThe irony is, many of the states where Trump won by the biggest margin, are the states that are going to get hit the hardest from Canadian retaliation tariffs ( Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, the Dakotas - just to name a few). A lot of farmers in those states are going to be hit extremely hard with the fertilizer tax. After Canada, the next 3 largest Potash producers are Russia, Belarus & China. So , good luck \nWhen the cost of fruit & vegetables skyrocket across the US. Maybe you’ll put a little more thought into your vote 4 years from now.

If any American is shocked by this and believe that this deterioration of relations happened over night… allow me to remind you that not just Canada, but the entire world has prepared for this starting in Tr**p’s first term when he first started breaking ties with allies and sat in bed with your enemies. That is why the world is backing Canada so quickly and aggressively - we saw this coming and we decided back then that we needed to prepare for a world without the USA… and here we are! For any Americans who believe your ‘leader’ that this is the age when the world will respect the USA again, it is precisely the opposite… and if you don’t want to believe that, well, wishing you all the best. The world has never ever had as little respect for the USA as today… and Putin is just laughing his ass off because he has your ‘leader’ wrapped around his finger.

I’m going to say what most of us have figured out but no one wants to say out loud because we are afraid. The orange Cheeto is crazy but he will invade us for our minerals and fresh water. He will get his little friend to invade us from the North. And we will be helpless because as much as ordinary people have pledged their support, no country on the planet, including the Commonwealth, will come to our aid because the US has so much military might. We’re toast.

He only cares about tariffs trump is actively trying to save the world. If russia takes Ukraine, the whole Europe is in trouble, including Canada. We are literally the only humans in our universe that we know of, and everyone is worried about trump. He fixings something thats so little of our problems. And ps Mr. Canada is no good.

That’s with a little d ?️⚔️????sry our best friends ?we have a fktard as a wannabe gangster Instead we live with dum and dummer down here . More then half of US ??will stand with you ????⚔️?????the other half is brainwashed

I am embarrassed to be Canadian. Trump is doing everything and anything to make America and the American people better. He is not responsible for canada. All we do here is whine and get into a well if you do this we're gonna do that pissing contest. Instead of us here in Canada doing anything to make Canada stronger and us not reliant on handouts. We got that little brother syndrome where we wanna be like big brother but don't have any power

Don't be fooled Canada has been using tariffs on American goods for decades, it's not new and this isn't some bold great leader doing the right thing. He's a baby stomping his feet because he wants to tariff America and not be taxed back. He's not a leader and he's not a man. He's a little boy doing tiny petty things. He was fine when the gravy train made him a profit, he's mad because the free money just ran out.
