Justin Trudeau is a parasite...he caused 86% food inflation, causing millions of Canadians to have to rely on food banks, while Trudeau spent $81k of Canadian taxpayers dollars on groceries for himself this year alone...Trudeau underfunded Canada in relation to NATO, underfunded Canada in relation to NORAD, ticked off Trump by being rude to him in the past so that now Trump launches an economic trade war against Canada cause he just wants to hurt Canada to hurt Trudeau. Yes, Trump is an absolute economic imbecile as this trade war will cause Great Depression 2 in America and Canada (unless he invades which I think he will in some years) but the thing I hate the most about this is that Trump makes Trudeau look like the good guy in all this when Trudeau ruined Canada beforehand...all Trump needed to do was SHUT UP and let the Canadian perpetual liar LEAVE office...now we all pay the price for Trump's hatred of Justin Trudeau :(

Love Trudeau lets stand together against Dictators. Never justify yourself in front of a Narcissist they don't care ..they just win time with this and turn your arguments against you

It’s business. Why he making it personal? Everyone is allowed to tax America. No one else lets illegals in their country. We’re are looked at as weak and we get taken advantage of for decades

Oh please you don't care about your country Steph down and let a real leader deal with this

Lets vote again...emergency situation.. and let's count all the votes...and reinstate those falsely thrown off thevoter rolls (think racist Georgia etc.

Trudeau can either kiss Uncle Sams ring or Uncle Sam's ass. It's up to him. I say raise it another 25%. If Canadian leadership is so great they dont need trade with the U.S. right? So fk off. Lets see how well you do?

Canadians do not support this tyrant….don’t let the media fool you for one second

Canada strong!!! We must not let the orange moron bully us.

Hold firm, Donald. Don't cave. Don't let them win this game of chicken. The light is up ahead.

Same 25% tariffs to US devil government. And shut off oil and electric to US too. Let DEVIL trump to know Canadian STAND TOGETHER

I'm an American and let me make this perfectly clear what I heard. Coming out of Justin Trudeau's mouth today was the gospel truth. Our government is off the rails and who's to blame the GOP and the magas. Canada this American supports you 150%

Lets boycott the US, if we all do they will cry hard

My indigenous American background has tought me better than this and we stand with Canada, UK, Mexico and Europe. It's shameful what is happening here in the US and I just want everyone to know that there's many of us that do not agree with what's going on. We don't stand with Russia or any dictatorship. Now let's see how many hate comments I get and from what side, it'll be crystal clear who's who. Ukraine we also stand with you ??

???? this guy agenda “ lets make canada worst again “ humiliates brings everything to the public nonsense.

Never let a good crisis go to waste

Let's be clear Mr. Trudeau, with your pandering to the EU.. No one in your country is at risk. You're so cozy up there taking other countries and other people's money. Nobody in your country is at risk of harm, unless you want to try something? Come on Son! The U.S. is tired of War. We The People are tired of the killing, the killing you are so comfortable with. There is enough War in the world without you adding to it. Are we crystal clear now? We don't need you. And I am willing to go without a few things to prove it to you. I think a lot of Americans are now. We'll see. MAGA ??

Let's see take your Own word. Don't cry later

I live in Michigan us. Canada is our friends. DONT LET THIS asshole tRUMP kill us

I’m glad Canada is fighting back, don’t let this bully Trump hold anything over your head!

Now let's get to the real story, the one where Amercian taxpayers subsidizing your country while you tax your citizens absurd amounts. One of the most corrupt political countries and Canadiens are sick of it too

Let me get this straight. Im supposed to take this seriously? CNN + Trudeau = zero credibility. I thought this loser resigned.

Arizona here. usually a proud American when Trump is not in office. but I stand with Canada and Ukraine. please let Trump choke on a Big Mac and end this nonsense.

From Japan, to our friends in Canada.\n\nSurely, we in Japan will also be forced to face a trade war similar to what you, our Canadian friends, are experiencing.\nNo, perhaps it has already begun—perhaps we are merely on the verge of its full-scale escalation.\n\nCanadian friends, your leader has shown a resolute stance against the U.S. government. Please take pride in this. The American left will surely boo him harshly once again, but this is what a true statesman should be. With dignity and composure, he made a difficult decision—not because he wanted to, but because he had to—fully aware that it would bring pain to both nations’ citizens.\n\nCan our own Japanese leaders take such a firm and resolute stance? That, I do not know.\nBut I offer my deepest respect.\n\nAmerica is no longer a protective guardian to us.\nWe must defend our own nation by ourselves.\nThis has become clearer than ever.\n\nPeople of Canada, let us remain strong together.\n\nWith deepest respect and prayers from Japan.

Let’s get this clear - This is not about hurting Canada with Tariff. This is all part of Trump’s plan to create panic, confusion and frustration to the American people to make us weak so he can sell us to PUTIN. The tariff to Canada, Mexico and China; his immigration racist decisions to target Latinos; the way he and Vance attacked to president Zaleski and firing federal employes is just ALL Part of a plan to create confusion, so while we scratch our head, he allied with PUTIN.

US VOTER: “Uhhh, so you do this fella Trudeau is near the end of his term as Canada’s PM? I mean, if you all are done with him and all we could certainly use a guy like him in our executive branch “ ?? ??. \n BTW, I love Canadians. Hell, “ some of my best friends are Canadian.” None In the family of course-what would people say? But you know. This guy Trump is quite the hoser. How about you open up your borders just a pinch to let us sane Americans over? We don’t eat much and we’ll even pay for any medical expenses! Really we will. We’re use to it. How’s about like starting up an H1VFK visa. Yeah, you know-the Hey, I Voted For Kamala visa. Well, just think on it. You guys were there for us during Nam. You can do the human thing again. Cheers ?

I am from Alberta, Canada and would like to thank all the American people that have said that they stand with Canada. YOU CAN HELP. Call or write to your various levels of government and let them know that this is wrong and will hurt everyone in the US and Canada. The sooner that the US government realizes this is a no win situation, the better for all of us. Also, thank you to everyone around the world for your support. I am Canadian, I am strong and free and I will fight for my country and for my family.

It's time for Canada to turn off electricity, oil and gas to the US. And tariff the crap out of any that you do let through.

Trump accused Ukraine President as dictator and he started the war and he was responsible complete opposite. Now Trump turns on its closest ally Canada. Trade war is dangerous lets step up and make relationships other countries such as China ,India whereever?????????????

Why are they letting trump do this

Trump supports a dictator who lets children and babies die and wants to wipe out an entire country. He is opposing all of his allies for Putin. Putin will get money again. He is sacrificing parts of Ukraine and Putin has no need to fear punishment. Many countries were allies of the USA. We fully supported the USA after September 11th. People in the EU also died for you! I liked the USA very much, I spent my vacation there but I will not do that anymore, I will no longer buy American products. A dictator is being supported here and all our help to Ukraine for the past 3. years will be wasted! Trump will also restructure the USA so that he is the only king and no one controls him anymore. He want rich russians oligarch in the USA...That is how I think and feel... he s like Biff in back to the future when he owns all...From Germany! Thank You Canada❤.. \n\nI send love and recognition to every US American who did not vote for this president and who is for democracy and human rights. ❤️

PM Trudeau you are a leader, Canadian's please stand strong with your PM and don't let Putin/Trump tear your country apart. Our president is compromised, in any other time a president would have been brought up on treason/ traitor. It is beyond me why the Republicans are not standing up to him. My grandfather fought in WWll against Hilter in Africa, where are our heros now?

These puniy humans in this chat and Canada feel like they can defend themselves from Putin's nuclear ? imma side with Trump and as he said let yall fight it out???✌?

Regardless of what “side” or team your on you have to recognize these politicians are using us as pawns in a war. We are the collateral. It’s a pissing contest and they’re both playing chicken with how much they will let their people suffer in the name of “winning”. Stop glazing these people. Hop off and wipe your mouth. Your guys not better than the other they will both use you as human meat shields to fight their wars.

“Let’s look at the facts” ?? 4:04

Thank you thank you thank you very much Mr. Trudeau for giving us hope in this terrifing time, for standing up to bully, for letting those dictators know that our democratic world is not for sell.\nMerci du fond du cœur cher Premier Ministre Trudeau . Vielen vielen lieben Dank. Wir sind so stolz auf Sie lieber Herr Premierminister Trudeau und auf das tolle Volk Kanadas\n❤

American, that absolutely supports Canada…. Granted Im a black American, so let that sit in…. I’m sorry we had ignorant people who put racism and bigotry of valuing our democracy. Pray for all of us…

So let me get this straight us Americans don't have the right to change the tariffs and what kills me is that when it affects you now you complain about it and that it's not fair. So what it says is that you knew it's always not been fair but you've never cared but now it affects you that's why you're complaining.

Lets make a Nato of our own, with trade freedom and mutual defense, without the usa

As an American, most of us with brains don’t want this either. Why can’t Trump’s narcissistic ass just let shit go. Oh wait. He’s a narcissist.

Maybe if your country would stop letting drugs come threw your boarders into the US we wouldn’t have to do this, Justin talks all this game about being nice and wanting to work together, get he lets the cartels bring drugs threw there county. We making deals else where because Justin refuses to actually work together. He can say whatever he wants but it doesn’t change the facts.

Go Canada! Don’t negotiate with these lunatics. People voted for chaos, let’s see how they like it.

When the guy who was such a god-awful, terrible, idiotic Prime Minister that his own party told him that he was too embarrassing to continue as leader; lights you up for being dumb and the 86% of Canadians that didn’t want Trudeau to ever appear in public as a Canadian (Let alone PM) agree with him… you’ve got to rethink your position.

Some how I said from the start when Vladimir Trump got put in as the president of the United States of Russia!!! I said give him enough rope and let's see how it goes ?

Sounds great, but Trudeau won't stand up for Canadian national unity by forcing his home province's premier (Quebec) to let a pipeline through that province.

Let’s Blame #KendrickLamar

This is what Americans and Canadians have listed to for years. Now you don't look like a push over....nice. Now you will negotiate and work together for a fair trade deal. Let results delicate.

German here that happens to have ties to both the US and Canada. Germany and Europe is with you Canada, you are on the right side of history! Don´t let yourselves get bullied by this lying sack of BS. Geez I´m craving for a Donair right now.

Let’s go canada cause soon I’ll be living in canada and Mexico and help them with the economy if I’m going to work I’m going to work for my land and for a country who loves people ❤

“The one thing he [Trump] has said repeatedly is that what he wants, is to see a TOTAL COLLAPSE of the Canadian economy. Because, that will make it easier to annex us; is the second half of his thought… \n \n“We will never be the 51st State. But, yeah, he [Trump] can do damage to the Canadian economy… Let us not fool ourselves about what he seems to be wanting.” \n \n“This is a policy decision by the American government, designed to go after the Canadian economy… We’re booing a policy that is designed to HURT US!” We’re insulted, and we’re angry… We’re going to fight.” \n \n\t\t \t\t\t– Justin Trudeau (4 March, 2025)

I am so overwhelmed by the fact that I am powerless against my own governments idiotic actions that completely destabilize the world. Please understand that over half of Americans are just as shocked as Canadians, and we love you as our neighbors. We let a ruthless dictator brainwash our vulnerable and uneducated and exploit every crack in our system to get here. I’m very scared for what’s to come and it sucks so badly that we all have to pay for an egrogious act of an elderly nepo baby that doesn’t understand how government and the world works.
