As an American, I want to say that I have never seen a more toxic administration in my life. Not only are they hurting Americans but they are hurting Americas longstanding allies. This will not end well for us as Americans. This both hurts me and scares me. It’s sad that there are Americans that think this administration is doing a good job. God bless us all!?

Canada, you did not hurt us Americans. DT did.

All the Democratic losers Canada is a tool along with governor Justin .. and it’s gonna hurt Canada a lot more than it’s gonna hurt us ???

Maybe we shouldnt spend BILLIONS of dollars for protection and dont get anything back. Is that fair? Trump and MAGA are fed up spending SOO Much money that has little or no benefit to us yes it will hurt for now, but we already spent 4 years in hell whats anouther1-2 years.

Canada has nothing the US needs. Screw these woke Canadians, baby Castro isn’t crying because it’s going to hurt the US it’s going to devastate Canada.

Someone needs to make sense of this. If trump tarrifs will hurt the US , why are you reacting with tarrifs? By your logic your tarrifs will hurt canada.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. You are an idiot. You will not hurt us, you are terrified of us and everyone knows it.

Trump chose to do this its not Canadas choice and I simple do not see how its justified. This is a tax on Americans make no mistake its OUR prices that will go up as well as Canadians. This sure smells of Russian influence to me, its almost as if Trump is trying to hurt America, he is for sure tearing up the Government. If Putin had a wish list separating us from our staunch allies would be #1

Hurt Canada. Dam. Its going hurt US

American Here. Let’s Go, Canada!!! I urge you to do everything you can to bring our president to his knees. Double down on anything that will hurt #47. The sooner he bends his knees, the sooner we get him out of office. He’s a liar and facts mean nothing to him. He sold us all out to Russia. Give him the worst you can come up with. We are with you. ??????????????

This guy is an idiot we're just trying to be fair with trade they've been taking advantage of us for a very long time.. this guy is butt hurt because he spends that extra money on his airplane flights and Taylor Swift concerts..

This isn’t’anti-Americanism’ how about anti-Canadian? As an American I can only say this breaks my heart that Donald continues to sever relationships with our nearest neighbors and Allie’s. How sad for all of us. Now tighten your belts America. This will hurt but Donald will tell you how great this is for everyone in his usual stupid bravado.

Im an American! Im so proud of this Man standing up to this F' d government actions thats going to hurt us so badly.

Trump , vance and Musk , are not very smart , \nby open trade wars , only the people get hurt on both sides , \nand if USA go after europ then usa will loose even more , \nUsa need us as much as we need them , and Trump \nshould start thinking , becosue americans are loosing power as well \nmust of in europe dont see USA as western leadership anymore , \nthat eneded when people of USA was stupid enough to vote for trump and \nvance , we warned USA people this would happent and still they voted trump \nand now you want us to stand with you ,,,, honestly we have a saying that goes like this \nyou gonna lay in the bed you made , and if you complain about you better redue you bed ! \nSo RNC votes , do you feel the pain the trump a, vance and musk are doing to you , \nif you do then time to remove the idiots from power ! \nand btw , you should rename RNC to RNCC ( Real Northamerica Criminal Consortium)

Yes Trump is hurting all of us. And most drugs is a problem in US for a 100 years

México nowdays has a efficient, knowledgeable. and honest president that wanted to have fair trade agreements with Canada and the United States ...however the US government choose to fight and blame the neighbors to the north and south by braking every single rule of the free trade among the three countries ......CHINA , CANADA AND MEXICO ....oviously will retaliate the same way and Definitely the US citizens will be the most hurt ....mexico always have been resilient from wars. Pandemics , bad politicians , economy , etc etc etc ....mexicans have the strength to recovery sooner than later and this one won't be diffrent .....mexico will continue to have agreements with Europe. Asia , and Latin America with the option to have talks with bricks ...we all know the world is totally diffrent.now .....The 1800s are gone and will never come back that's for sure !!

Hurt just Canadians? They supply more electricity to US..

If you didn’t want to see us hurt then why did you ruin our logging industry?

Trudeau we agree with you, all this is going too hurt us American citizens.

If you didn’t want to see us hurt then why did you ruin our logging industry?

Oh no Canadian products lmfao what are those exactly? Canada needs the US more than the US needs Canada. Gas prices are the only thing going to change in the US which will also hurt Canada since the pipeline is interconnected.

As a Canadian yes it will hurt us. But you news anchors gloss over the fact that canada is only being hit by the US, whereas the US is being hit by everyone you keep picking fights with. The US will be affected majorly by each country you lose favor with. You may be big and powerful, but you didn't get there alone.

nice try Canada and we the people love you. but we've had half the country brainwashed by a russian operative and his rich weirdo nazi-wannabe's. and the under educated have been lied to endlessly into believing this is good somehow. ? when we figure our shit out we'll come back and ask for your friendship again. really, people of canada, it hurts so many of us to be doing this to the world. im so sorry.

?? here: trump is suppressing global trade, hurting everyone on a global level. For world peace and humanity, US dominance no more!

Canadian leaders, please do not let Zelenskyy sign a mineral deal with the US. trump is setting Ukraine up to fail and take advantage of the Ukrainian people, like he lied to Americans. The world needs to now fight Russia and the White House. I stand with Canada and Mexico even though it is going to hurt my pocketbook...

Tarrifs hurts the countries consumers nothing else. Big companies dont give a damn about your Tarrifs Trump, they just put it on the consumers and thats us. Good God man we had a dummy as President last year we dont need another dummy in the White House. These Tarrifs are stupid. ?

As much as it will hurt us in America, I understand. I am so sorry. I wish we had a different President. Thank you, Canada for all your years of friendship. I hope we can earn it back some day.

As a US citizen I fully support what Trump is doing. \n\nOh and these tariffs will hurt Canada far more than they will hurt America and we know that.\n\nCanadians better start controlling their border soon.

you are a fool if you believe canada will bring america to its knees with these pointless tariffs lol. it will hurt Canada 100x more than it does the US

Trudeau....Trump is purposely trying to destroy the US...contain this idiot in the white house and target goods from red states on your bans....if Republicans wont put him in check, make those republicans hurt till they do.

You sit there spending 0 on your own military and live off us like a leech. You want to talk about hurting American families, lets talk fentanyl. You havent done shit until President Trump hit you in the wallet. You also have tariffs on us. The USA is also running a huge defecit with Canada. Biden is gone and the screw job is over.

I live in America, I Love Canada As I Live Right In The Border. ! I love All People This Is Terrible And Evil To Us Regular People! This Hurts Us All I Have Family, And Friends On both Sides of This Continent. The border is our back doors. We all shop, visit, entertain all over we all should be FREE. STOP THIS EVIL IN THE NAME OF THE MOST HIGH! YAHSHAYUAH!

When the US starts to hurt and their power is cut (if we proceed with that), I suspect that they will take military action against us. It will cease to be a trade war and become an actual war.

This isnt a personal Strike to Canada from the US, This is Business. \nSecurity isnt free and the US will not be hurt by this. \nFinally, the USA goverment is forcing manufacturung back to the US. \nThere is one winner from this and its not Canada. Mark my words. \nSpeaches like This one is only to peak the interest of ignorant and small minded people. \nWake up people. This is just Trudeau Using media to make it like Canada is being picked on. \nWill there be a Canada in 20 years?

Trump is a sociopathic dumbass.... this will hurt america in the long run. ALL allies are turning away from that toxic US policies.... bye bye US Dollar and US ignorance will hurt you soon...

anyone that doesnt think shit gets worse before it gets better is delusional. weve kicked the can down the road for decades and now were at a breaking point. Tarrifs are mad toi bring companies back to america making our country more self sufficient and not so reliant on everyone else which will strenghten us. TSMC has already made a deal to start manufacturing chips here which control everything we know and china could stop that at any moment. Honda is coming here as well. All in all almost one trillion has been committed to invest in the us and this is a huge win for the long run. Alot of these countries have had tarriffs on us for ages and the people speaking out against it is because its hurting their pockets. The long run this is mandatory and we should have never let manufacturing go in the first place.

Come on bro you know that Joe Biden is the one that hurt this country with what he let you and every other country get away with against the American people a lot of us woke up we voted for Trump there's a mandate you can talk crap and try to lie all you want that's what you liberals do but we know better I stand with Trump

Canada costs the US billions, you sir haven’t been very been in a real fight you make peace by talking to your enemies fool there’s your sense and if you don’t want to do this make tariffs reciprocal this won’t hurt us it will hurt Canada

Trudeau doesn't not impress me at all. That eexactly what Trump want and that will hurt both sides for good. Trudeau must go as well as all the deep state suporting him and al europea country. those guys hurt us more than any trade war through there macabre plitics and decisions along there presidency.

I cannot believe on his last days as PM, he finally started fighting fentanyl, under the threat of tariffs and he wonders why they still put them in place. It’s probably because they want to make sure that he keeps doing what he should have done for Canadians along time ago. But trump should not keep the tariffs in place after Justin is gone it will only hurt both us Canadians and Americans.

Doesnt Hurt us !!!

This hurts the poor and the middle class in both countries.\n“ Donald“ is out for vengence and blood. He will destroy US. Democracy.\n\nTrudeau’s first language is French.\nEnglish is his second.

I'm from Canada, Trump wants to destroy us, he is a bully, Trump deserves everything he gets and I hope it hurts him good.I am very touched to see the support of the world for Canada thank you's

Doesnt Hurt us !!!

It's sad that US voters put themselves and their fellow americans in this awful situation. This won't be easy to fix now, and it will hurt everyone, apart from Vladimir who is for sure having the time of his life in Moscow lately.

This hurts the poor and the middle class in both countries.\n“ Donald“ is out further blood. He will destroy US. Democracy.

Those US citizens who did not vote for tRump and we support Canada. My husband is a retired Airborne Ranger who worked cooperatively with military personnel from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, and other democratic countries around the world. We are just sick about how tRump has treated our allies. He is a bully and a draft dodging coward. We don’t blame any of our NATO allies who apply pressure through tariffs, etc to give tRump the consequences he deserves for his bad behavior. He is hurting the US country and its citizens, being cruel to their people lower income US citizens. Middle and lower class US citizens are going to be suffering under his US as he is trying to get rid of every program that helps us live with dignity. He is hurting our farmers. We know that he is a narcissistic psychopath. Most of us can’t wait until he and JD Vance are out of office, and hopefully in prison. They don’t care how many US citizens they hurt with their greedy megalomaniac agenda. We are sorry that our administration is being so unreasonable and hope you can forgive the rest of the US citizens that never wanted this situation with you and our other NATO allies.

Trudeau should go home and review their tariffs on the US. These are “reciprocal tariffs” which means you get what you give. Trudeau is a walking moron, he needs to just move on out. He thinks he’s going to hurt the US? He’s a joke.

The Canadian tariffs imposed on US goods, will hurt Canadian consumers, and US manufacturers. How does this help America? Secondly, it has been reported that Russia is funding the manufacturing of the illegal Fentanyl that gets smuggled into our country, and around the world. Finally, TRUMP IS NOT SMART!

You don’t want to see us hurt? You allowed drugs to pour into the us and did nothing about it!
