Mr. Trudeau you did support Israel during this genocide and that is not forgivable! Wake up and reinstate international law and support a UN that prevents genocide!

Unfortunately, the way it comes across outside the US, especially in Europe, Americans are so much antagonised internally that they look to have permanently lost the ability and desire to help themselves not generate hatred for each other, let alone being able to help someone else. Sadly!

Equality in protecting each other is a must. Mexico and Canada haven’t stopped illegal drugs from coming into their countries which then comes to the USA. Need to beef up your ports and international airports. Your border is safe because of the USA.

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

Trump and his crooked administration are traitors and can’t be trusted. They are not protecting US citizens! There’s an internal coup in the US unfortunately. Protect your country Canada!

All you guys are the servants of international Zionism.

Did they MAGA? No, so let's move forward from this, America! We ALL need to agree to be American 1st. Our safety is at serious risk, but we can still get the train back on track, if Congress can ALL agree to put America before any other internal disagreement. If The SCOTUS and the Judicial System will do the same. It isn't too late, YET. It's time to right the ship and our allies will support us, if our people will stand up, against the harm that this Administration is doing to ALL of us, as a whole. It's leaking hate into every aspect of our country. We're inundated with it and it's spilling out, into the world, affecting our standing.\n\nWe need an Administration where we can have normal disagreements and figure how to resolve them....find HOPE again. I'm tired of feeling despair. America, be the leader of Democracy. Keep your word!\n?⚪?

There are concerns regarding President Trump’s support for a nation that has faced considerable international criticism, as it may negatively affect America’s global reputation. Moreover, a trade war may not represent the most effective strategy for addressing the complex economic challenges at hand.

Im from Texas. I have never agreed with the policies of Trump. I'll gladly be on the front lines with Canada.\n\nOur country has not only failed us, but the American people that call themselves American. We have turned into a bigger facist nation than Russia. At least some of them go missing for trying to whistle blow on an international level. Meanwhile, we cry to each other internally as if anyone has the balls to stand up

INDIANS! Not international students !

Please don't let M Trudeau leave! Ask him to stay on! The world needs him ! He explains the facts so very clearly, outlines the discrepancies so precisely, retains the dignity of Office, & his entreaties to reason, compassion & international cooperation are so welcome! Canada should be proud of Trudeau! Don't let him go! (Australia)

Dear Canadian friends & allies, i would recommend becoming as self sufficient as possible for now, we don't know how long or how well our president will get his way destroying international relationships with our allies.\nAt least half of US voters did not vote for this guy.

Chrism Oil and the Fertile Field Hypothesis: Rediscovering an Ancient Healing Science\n\nFor millennia, healers have understood what modern medicine is only beginning to fully acknowledge—disease does not strike at random. It takes root in a body primed for illness, an environment where chronic inflammation, toxic burden, and metabolic dysfunction create fertile ground for pathogens and cellular abnormalities to thrive. This is the essence of the Fertile Field Hypothesis: illness does not simply attack; it finds conditions favorable for growth.\n\nIf disease thrives in a compromised system, then true healing must begin not just by eliminating symptoms, but by restoring the terrain—reducing inflammation, clearing toxins, and rebalancing physiological function. Ancient medicine sought to do precisely this, often through herbal formulations, fasting, and counterirritants designed to stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms.\n\nOne of the most remarkable historical formulations that aligns with this concept is Chrism oil, a sacred anointing oil described in Exodus 30:22-33. Though typically viewed through a religious lens, its composition suggests a powerful counterirritant, capable of inducing localized inflammation to trigger systemic healing responses. Modern research into counterirritants, phytochemicals, and immune modulation suggests that this ancient remedy may have functioned as a sophisticated bioactive therapy.\n\nCounterirritants: The Forgotten Science of Healing Through Irritation\n\nCounterirritants do not work by numbing pain or merely masking symptoms. Instead, they induce a controlled inflammatory response, redirecting the body’s focus to healing. This mechanism is seen in modern compounds like menthol, capsaicin, and camphor, which activate transient receptor potential (TRP) channels to modulate pain, inflammation, and circulation.\n\nExodus 30:22-33 – Recipe for Chrism Oil\n\n\t•\tOlive oil: 4 ml\n\t•\tCannabis sativa extract: 4 g\nEssential Oils:\n\t•\tCassia: 8 g\n\t•\tMyrrh: 8 g\n\t•\tCinnamon: 4 g\n\n\nChrism oil’s ingredients strongly suggest it functioned similarly:\n\t•\tOlive oil – A carrier oil rich in anti-inflammatory polyphenols, promoting skin absorption and immune regulation.\n\t•\tCannabis sativa extract – Contains cannabinoids (CBD, THC), which modulate nociception, inflammation, and immune homeostasis through the endocannabinoid system (ECS).\n\t•\tMyrrh – A powerful antimicrobial and wound-healing resin, known for its ability to stimulate immune function.\n\t•\tCinnamon and Cassia – Rich in cinnamaldehyde, a circulatory stimulant that enhances metabolic function and detoxification.\n\nBy applying Chrism oil to the skin, ancient healers may have been leveraging counterirritation to stimulate deeper healing processes, much like modern medical applications of capsaicin for neuropathic pain or mustard plasters for respiratory conditions.\n\n\nThe Fertile Field Hypothesis and Restoring Biological Balance\n\nIf chronic disease arises from an imbalanced internal environment, then reversing illness requires correcting that imbalance. Integrative medicine increasingly recognizes the need to:\n\t•\tReduce systemic inflammation – Through dietary polyphenols, fasting, and targeted herbal interventions.\n\t•\tEnhance detoxification – Supporting liver function, lymphatic drainage, and mitochondrial health.\n\t•\tModulate stress responses – Using mind-body therapies to lower cortisol, which is directly linked to immune suppression and chronic inflammation.\n\nChrism oil, when viewed as more than just a religious anointing oil, represents an ancient approach that aligns with modern scientific insights into counterirritants, phytotherapy, and immune modulation. This calls for renewed exploration of topical bioactive therapies, particularly those that stimulate controlled inflammatory responses to induce systemic healing.\n\nFar from being a relic of the past, the science behind Chrism oil may provide a foundation for innovative treatments in chronic pain management, immune regulation, and regenerative medicine. The ancients understood what we are rediscovering today: true healing does not just eliminate disease—it restores the soil so that health can flourish once more.\n\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Complementary-Cancer-Therapy-Slawek-Wojtowicz/dp/B0CR8Q2DBM/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=BnLvn&pd_rd_wg=hjUla&pd_rd_r=a698f3f1-9951-4a4c-8a52-3cdd2a3c8a72&content-id=amzn1.sym.ec5b70ad-0c46-403c-8d38-3db6570c8b46&ref_=aufs_ap_sc_mbl

A True Business Man working in the name of International Friendship! Well done President Trudeau

Let's be honest, it took a US President for Canadian Prime Minister to act tough on drugs and illegal immigration. Things he should have been doing in the first place without any international pressure. It shows the absolute disrespect he has for Canadian citizens demanding the same.

For the love of all that's holy -- it's NOT hard to see that THIS is what Trump wants -- to be allied with Putin. He only does what strokes his ego and his ego WANTS TO ALLY WITH PUTIN. The sooner everyone else accepts that, the sooner we will be allied internally against this dire threat.

I am American independent voter who vote against Treasonous Trump this past election of 2024 in favor of Kamala Harris. While many of my fellow Americans voted for Trump many others like me did not. Now so many good and event Americans are going to suffer because of many Maga or Maga supporting Americans who foolishly chose to support Trump and his lies. Any pain and suffering Anti Trump supporting Americans, along international American Allies and theuir people, suffer will be squarely on the shoulders of Maga and Maga supporting Americans.\n\nHow Trumps first term wasn’t a wake up call and eye opener to how terrible he was and is as president is beyond me. He, treasonous Trump, did nothing to help our economy which essentially stalled or went into generally neutral state with essentially no growth positively or negatively, followed by a near complete nose dive due to Treasonous Trump’s poor handling and equally poor response to the Covid-!9 Pandemic. How people could seemed to forget that Treasonous Trump, not Joe Biden, was responsible for the current sate of things following the pandemic is beyond me. \n\nMaga and Maga supporting Americans have been conned again by Treasonous Trump, who not only failed to properly respond to the Covid pandemic but also incited and or encouraged many of Maga supporters to essentially attack the US Capitol in hopes of stopping Joe Biden’s Presidential Certification. Those in the Inter national world are not alone in their condemnation of the disgrace and embarrassment that sis current US President Trump. True Americans who believe in our constitution and rule of law as decreed by the founding fathers of our nation must unfortunately bare part of the shame Maga America has brought upon our country as a whole.Truly good and decent Americans must bare the shame of now living in a country that much International world now no longer trusts and has lost respect for. For all the hateful Maga thinking and or supporting Americans there are as many truly good non maga Americans who want more peaceful relations with allies in the international world. Sadly because of Trump and his hate many must now unjustly suffer .

Many people do not understand how tariffs impact the importation of goods and services. Canada lacks the infrastructure to produce the minerals required for electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing. Additionally, Canada does not possess the same international influence as the United States, particularly in military matters. As a result, Canadians may face more significant challenges, as their economy relies more on U.S. trade than the United States' reliance on Canada. Overall, Canada has a less developed economy and limited global influence.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, for your steadfast leadership in these challenging times. Your clear and decisive response to the unjustified U.S. tariffs demonstrates a commitment to protecting Canadian interests and upholding the integrity of your nation's economy. \n\nIt's reassuring to witness a leader who can speak sense and stand firm against unwarranted actions. \n\nYour dedication to maintaining strong international relationships while addressing internal challenges reflects true statesmanship. Canada is fortunate to have such principled guidance as we navigate these complexities together.​ #IStandWithCanada

I don't believe and don't trust a WEF selected and Global Young Leaders trained politician who terrorized his own people and truckers during the pandemic unnecessary lockdowns!! Now he hooks up with all other international wannabe elite betrayers to again work against the taxpayers. The war is rich against the poor.

Yep it's going to be interesting \nAs I work for an international Automotive injection molding company based here in the US\nWe import Raw materials from Europe and China plus within the US and who knows where these materials come from.\nBut we also export finished products and materials to Europe, China, Canada, Mexico just to name afew.\nThat is a lot of tariffs placed on these products and that doesn't include tax, cost of labor, manufacturing costs\ngoing to be interesting what the future holds

Gen. Wesley Clark is somebody that, i have respected for over thirty years. Even Gen. Clark has expressed his displeasure over the way the Trump administration has threatened Canada with unfair tarrif's, on US'S closest ally and neighbour. It is obvious that Putin is manipulating Trump so as to isolate the US from its traditional friends and alies, as US credibility will decline internationally. Tarrif's will bring higher prices to American manufacturers and consumers and bring higher unemployment to Americans.

This also time to boycotte US $ as international currency. May be € to be replaced. \nMust remove all UN head offices to somewhere else. \nBoycotte , isolate , ostracized this lunatic psycopath gangster erratic leader of US.\n\nCanada , Europe, Mexico, Japan and S.Korea to built as soonest as possible Nuclear Reactor and bmbs. etc. \nBecause you cannot trust from this untrustworthy, mentally imbalanced leader from US.

The problem here isn't temporary. Tariffs may or may not be. But when Canada, Mexico, and other countries build alternate trade infrastructure and strike deals that exclude America, this becomes near irreversible and will hurt America's economy well after Trumps term. And that's just trade and economy.\n\nThen there are many relationships worldwide which are already affected, and world leaders are poised to move on without America - leaving it isolated. The US is the most powerful country in the world and can survive alone, but even so, no country flourishes without international partnerships that both parties can rely on. Like Putin, nobody can rely on Trumps word.\n\nHe is destroying everything. And the American public are largely sitting back and watching it. \n\nWake up before it's too late.

I guess siding with the bully as he was messing with many counties all these years is now hitting back to both EU and Canada. Very brave speech, though. Unfortunately, international affairs are driven by economic and military power, not by intellectual capacity.

Trump is attempting to offset his tax cuts by implementing a tax that isn't called a tax. All of the money from the tariffs goes to the government. Trump has mentioned when tariffs were common as supporting what he is doing, but he doesn't add that at that time, there wasn't an income tax, so tariffs were how the government supported itself. Trump, knowing that tariffs are income for the government, is lying to his base so they will accept the increased prices as a necessary evil to battle the bad countries of Mexico and Canada. It will look like his tax breaks aren't hurting as much as they are and price increases will be the fault of the other countries.\n\nTrump is a conniving grifter with no knowledge of how to run a country's economy or international trade. He is gaslighting the American public to cover his own shortcomings.\n\nAlso, if fentanyl is entering the US, why is it the fault of the other countries? It is the job of the US to stop anything on its side of the border. Canada and Mexico do what they can to catch the drugs while inside their respective countries. The tons of cocaine and guns that enter Canada and Mexico from the US are caught by their border services; they don't blame the US for the products getting past their own border agents, and the US takes no responsibility for it making it across the border. Why is it other countries' fault for drugs getting past the US's border agents, but not the fault of the US that guns and drugs are going in the other direction? That is why countries work together, not fight over whose fault it is and try to punish each other.

Hes damaging the international economy on behalf of his Russian Handlers.

Thank you Trudeau and Canada!\nWe can't defeat this madman internally, so yes, please keep executing external discipline & control until these crazy trump supporters feel it & understand it & change!\n\nAmerica deserves this tough love lesson from our brother, Canada!

I am so sad that anti-americanism is going to soar because of Trump’s outrageous behaviour on all fronts. Farewell to the international order that was before Trump and has passed away through these last six weeks.

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.

I think it’s crazy how these countries are trying to shame America for looking out for itself. International gaslighting is wild.

Trump is a total disgrace and a Threat locally and internationally due to his incapacity due to his cognitive disability

The Donald is digging a big hole.\nDomestically an internationally.\n???????????????\nSell your gas an oil to us canada

Putin is unquestionably a lying, murderous dictator and why there is an international arrest warrant for his arrest, for war crimes. Anyone whom believes otherwise is welcome to join him, in Russia.

No one talks about the Panama Canal ! Where Mr Solas is doing what ever he wants!! Hutchinson wampoa sold directly the concession to blackrock?! That’s illegal !!! The concession have to be put back to open competition for all international biters !! Is an open robbery !! God please act upon this modafhocas!!

Its not about drugs...its about collapse western civilization as we know it, world order and international laws, to create chaos?

Trump is a local and international threat

Trump is wrong in this .... anyway they planned all this when Canada honored the international criminal court against Israel... on the record SC graham spoke in video about destroying Canada economy.... but Canada has two serious nations that will automatically back Canada.. the UK and it sphere AND France and it sphere.... the only problem is logistics But Denmark has the logistics solution.... anyway USA first started growing off track with bush jr ... he who started the downfall policies of usa ..

The 'trade war' is fascinating for researchers in international economics...!?

General Clark is baffled by Trump's strategy. How it doesn't make any sense to alienate our allies and isolate ourselves. To destroy our economy and internal workings.\n\nBut it becomes crystal clear if you accept the fact that Trump is serving Putin. He is Putin's asset. \n\nTrump's actions prove it.

Why isn't Canada doing anything to stop illicit drugs in their Country. That's what this is about. Trump is America First and I won't apologize for that. \nTrudeau is talking like he has some kind of power over the U.S. Not very smart Canada will go broke if they don't comply with Trump's reques to shut down drug trafficking in Canada that comes across our border. \nFentanyl is still detected in an overwhelming majority of illicit drug deaths in Canada, according to PHAC, but the unpredictability and potency of other substances mixed in with the fentanyl are making the supply more dangerous. \nMexican cartels are operating fentanyl and nitazene synthesis labs in Canada. \nA recent study recognized Canada’s heightened domestic production of fentanyl, and its growing footprint within international narcotics distribution. \nCanada-based drug trafficking organizations maintain robust “super labs,” mostly in rural and dense areas in western Canada, some of which can produce 44 to 66 pounds of fentanyl weekly.

Elect PP you will get the same shitshow that is down south. The International Democratic Union which backed both of Trumps campaigns, the neo nazi party AfD party in Germany, is backing the Conservatives. What Trump wants is PP to come in and hand over Canada to US. They want our resources, rare earth minerals and our water. Pierre P has stated in the past that he admires Trump. PP is scary and backed by our enemies….enemies who hate democracy

I'm not for creating an international incident however Foreign and Domestic incidents TRUTHS is contrary AND AMERICANS SHOULD BELIEVE in COMMANDER IN CHIEF PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP TRUTHS over the thefts and thieves in OUR WORLD,WE THE PEOPLE MUST DEFEND TRUTHS ✋?⛑️??? ?️ prayers for WISDOM WEALTH and HEALING HEALTH THANK YOU ALL DEAR PRESIDENT TRUMP TOO CHAIN OF COMMAND

Canada will just sell items to the EU and China, at zero tariffs, and tariff US products. US auto prices will increase to a point if unsustainability. The US will become more and more isolated. US GDP will shrink. An international disaster is unfolding becasue of a 14 year old mentality leading the US, The Orange Scourge.

Trudeau is a WEF puppet. A tariff war between Canada and the U.S. is ridiculous to begin with, and it will certainly have negative consequences for the U.S., but much more so for Canada. Let's face it, the U.S. internal market is several times that of Canada. Many businesses in Canada exist only because of their trade with the U.S. The same is not true for the U.S. Trudeau can paint whatever picture he wants to Canadians, but the Trump administration is not made of fools and they are very much aware of the reasons they have for having enforced the tariffs.

To our friends around the world we appreciate and love your kind words of support. We also open our doors and wallets to trade! We got lots to offer and keen to welcome new friends and expand our relations beyond the ease of our next door neighbours. We love them but they’ve hopefully temporarily lost their minds. We hope they come to their senses but in the meantime- let’s build some bridges and get back to making the world a better place for everyone! Maple syrup, apples, blueberries, potatoes and rye whiskey for all- let a new era of international prosperity begin!

Gaslighting at its finest. Nobody is aligning with Russia, YOU LIAR. Your countries economy is destroyed. YOU PERSONALLY ALLOWED FETANYL INTO THE US. GO TRUMP!!! DRAIN THE INTERNATIONAL SWAMP!!!!!!!!!!!!

?? here. Sure, we have our differences internally. Sure, we have problems. But oh my, in my many years of experience I have never seen Canadians united the way we have become as a result of threats eminating from the US. For this, we are putting our differences aside and uniting as one. I’m not a Trudeau fan, but he speaks - very well - for our nation.

I'm an American who did not vote for the boar in the white house. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, Greenland and Panama. Trump is behaving as if he made a deal with Putin to destroy the American economy and America's international relationships. We are making enemies of all our allies.

This is an intelligent, reasonable, and articulate leader of his country. Here in the USA, we have an immature psychopathic narcissist at our leader. Thanks, Trudeau, for clarifying what Trump is doing to our country and to our closest friendliest ally, not to mention the damage he is doing to our international relations.
