Trump is the chosen one to make American lives miserable. To divert the issues, he will start World War III. Way to go MAGA.

This tariff war makes no sense. Trump is an evil idiot. The Musk -Trump administration is really trying to destroy the quality of life for most Americans, probably to force us into destitute situations that they and their cronies can exploit.\nAlso, Trump is playing jnto Putin's hands so easily.

Less than one percent of fentanyl that enters the United States comes from Canada. Trump has absolutely no idea what’s he’s talking about he’s constantly spouts lies to trick Americans to further his own agenda, in fact he’s betraying America’s allies and getting closer with our enemies. He’s a terrible person and should be ousted from office ASAP

Donald Trump is living proof of how ignorant the American people are!

Trump is an embarrassment to Americans. Of Course he's going to respond to this because he doesn't know how to control his farts

Please know most Americans cannot stand Trump. He needs removed asap

Trump is dedicatedly working towards destroying American supremacy in the world. And he is doing it well.

Dear Canada. We the people the good citizens of these divided states do not condone what trump is putting your country and the rest of the world through! More than 80% of us hate trump and his evil lawless deeds! We are no longer free here! We are under the thumbs of an evil dictator and his panzy the riches man in the world! They are destroying this country bit by bit and quickly! They and the republicans in congress have sided with them! I’m am saddened that you great friends and all citizens are no facing his dictatorship follies! trump is not American! He never has been! Musk worked his magic with skylink and stole the votes from the democrats! Erased millions of our votes east as pie! I respect mr trudou and we hear his plea! His sorrow and I hope he and all who read this in Canada realize that the hood American here never wanted this but we can’t stop him with the way he and our judicial system is erasing our constitution! It’s eroding daily as if it never existed!! We are truly sorry for the pain he’s putting you through! Know that the 80 percent of Americans still stand with Canada Mexico Ukraine the EU and the rest of the world he’s punishing ?

Anti Americanism is coming from Trump.!!

American voters who voted for Trump! This is a leader, not just handsome (which trump is claiming to be and is not), this is intelligent, (which trump is not), this is smart (which trump is not), this is articulate, (which trump is not) this is smartly countering trumps stupidly. Trump is the failure America that trump created with the help of those racist voters who approved this nonsense trump has been doing. And worse of all you were supposed to see what colonisation has done to South Africa and other countries and you allow Elon to colonise an already colonised country, the USA).

I am so ashamed of the American Government, and I am sickened by Trump and his fascist , divisive agenda.\nPrime Minister Trudeau, I am so very sorry! Please know that many Americans share your sentiments. Pray for us.

You people do know that the majority of this country does not agree with you right? We support Donald Trump and will stand by him as he makes America better again. We are getting stronger as new companies come in and will put many American workers to work. American workers will produce better products.

I am so embarrassed being an American right now, Trump is the absolute worst.

Trump and all the Americans that support him are making a big mistake. Us Canadians are not going to take this lying down. We will fight to save our country!!!

As a Canadian citizen I have always admired the US up until now, I sincerely wanted to move to the US to build homes and start up a company. But now am re-evaluating my decision because if this how the US treats their friends and allies, I really feel sad for their enemies. Both countries benefited from having a good relationship and now the great US has no one willing to challenge Mr Trump on this idiotic move, America is alienating themselves from a lot of countries and regular Americans are the ones who are going to suffer from this fall-out, the rich won't be affected but regular working class folks your stress is going to get a whole lot worse and that's unfortunate. Hopefully US wises up sooner rather than later and stop blaming immigration for their problems it's poor governing and politicians that have us looking at each other as enemies rather than humans with the same struggle and issues. They have money to send annually overseas but none to improve the life of their citizens in need, that should tell you something. People that don't look like you aren't your enemies, people who try to harm you, undermine you are your enemies. People are just searching for a better life that's all, the most basic thing humans have in common, change the red tape a make things more structured and rid your country of the bad apples and welcome those willing to work, build and serve God and the country. May God help us all the beginning of Sorrows has begun ?.

He sounds very manipulative. And like he's having a temper tantrum. He can miss me with trying to play on people's emotion and act like Canada cares for Americans. Canada doesn't even want this man. All you trump haters and those who don't do research and believe the media are desperately trying so hard to see light and positivity where it done exist. What can anyone take away that America doesn't have right now. 70% of the population is damn near homeless and the avg job pays 14$ a hr. We already can't afford food way before trump got elected if our president thinks this is best then trust him\nWe want to much quick solutions. It's going to take a fight to make America great again ❤ time is everything. You can't expect no one to wave a magic wand and undo 12 yrs of democratic chaos. We have people that don't understand their gender. For years America has been every other countries sugar daddy! ENUFF. I SAY MORE TARRIFS❤

As an American, I stand with Canada and any other country that is repelled and repulsed by the idiocy that is the Trump administration. Blaming anyone and everyone for our own shortcomings is a fools errand and a petty and idiotic way of governing. This country is under the rule of a narcissistic dictator wanna be and a cult of clueless clowns.

I certainly hope it doesn’t seem as though all Americans agree with what Trump is doing because many of us certainly do not. He doesn’t understand what the word diplomacy means unfortunately. With inflation rates rising, a trade war is one of the worst possible scenarios, and I agree with the Prime Minister. There are no winners here. Everyone gets hurt.

Let's not forget that the USA has only ever won one war on its own. The American Civil War! WW1 and 2 were a global allied effort, Korea a stalemate, beaten pants down in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan a shambles. Their recent treatment of President Zolenski was utterly shameful. Trump doesn't seem to understand that America will need all the friends that it can muster in the coming decade. The USA will be very alone in a war against China if they have isolated and belittled their strongest and best allies. Vance, should just keep his mouth shut, because every time he opens it he shames America. While every time Trump his mouth, Putin comes out.

The Americans who voted for Trump doesn’t realize that the idiot doesn’t have their best interest and they will become poorer and struggle while he’s in power. Donald Duck will abuse his position to favour greed and ensure that his family amd already wealthy friends, constituents and enemies of the free world reign in evil ways beyond imagination.

Canada didn’t need to do all that stuff about Fentanyl. It’s a made up problem so Elon and Trump can destroy Americans and make us so poor that he can take over as dictator.

Lol love how he said “Donald” and not “President Trump.” Perfect for a ? deserving of NO respect. Barely 2 months in office and this ? is already turning us into an isolated, reviled nation seen as nothing but a gang of mercenary bullies by the rest of the sane world. I’m an American and I turn my back on this madness. I stand with sanity, justice and truth. I stand with Canada and Ukraine. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Trudeau is 10X the man and leader than Trump. The contrast is real. Canada we stand with you against this moron as he drags the US into an economic freefall which could very easily result in millions of lost jobs, increased cost of goods - including gas, market items, cars, lumber and more. A tariff is a tax on Americans. Trump is planning on using those tariff dollars to help offset the actual tax cut for the billionaires. Tuck Frump. Resist the ignorant fool.

I stand with America and Trump، I believe it is the time to have a leadership to show up these countries such as Canada and Europe to depend on themselves without Americans

Good for Canada the republicans in congress are spineless to stand up to the felon president Trump and are allowing him to be a fascist tyrant. As an American it hurts to see how Trump treats allies and how he embraces enemies like Putin, North Korea and others. As painful as it will be I hope the free world does what the Republicans are scared to do and that is stand up to Trump and put him in his place!

Justin don't take it personally because Donald Trump has one vile purpose which is solely to dismantle institutions and destroy the US. Re-electing was the dumbest thing Americans could've done and the whole world will feel it. We're embarrassed for him!

China is rising and is in good relation with Russia , knowing this Trump wants to be in a good relation with Russia ,trying to stop The rise of China, this is a dump policy. China market is going to grow even if USA is in good relation with Russia. Trump must not apply tarriff like these , this will just suffer the Americans ?

I'm an American, but I do not support Mr. Trump. It's a shame and embarrassment. I am sick over this administration.

Sorry, Trump does not care of past allies he is taking the US into a dictatorship. Just observing from Downunder the past few days shows clearly the tyrrany of authoritarianism as Trump and the Maga cult are destroying Democracy and the US Constitution. Only Americans can stop this trajectory to save themselves and everyone from Putin. They Trump Musk Vance and Maga are a national and international disgrace and a threat to the world… please all stop this tragedy by a convicted felon and insurrectionist. Listen to Bernie Sanders.

An American from Indiana: I'm angry at Trump+Musk's policy and support Canada. I'd be happy if Canada put a 100% tariff on Elon Musk's Tesla.

I am American and I am all for you Canada. \n\nYou are right.\n\nWe need vote OUT all politicians that supported Trump as soon as we can.

Please don’t blame American citizens this is Trump and his oligarchy

Trump sending American troops and armaments to Russia to help Putin in his wars might soon to happen.\nTrump spearheading a Russian- American alliance is not an impossibility.\nWorld peace is in peril!

As an American citizen, I stand with Canada and Ukraine. Trump is not what we stand for, I’m so ashamed.

This is the fault of all the Americans who voted for Trump and his b!$*h Vance?

This was the best speech Prime Minister Trudeau ever gave, hands-down. As a Canadian, I pray for President Trump to come to his senses. May Canadians and Americans stick to our long and enduring friendship and not let politicians divide us. ✊️

When a con and felon who doesn't understand economics, politics,geo politics and policies can even qualify as a candidate and elected POTUS TWICE, this is what you get. Don't blame Trump. He proved he has beaten the flawed American systems better than anyone else all his life that's all.

Why should Trump have to speak in another language? American's speak English and we understood him very well.

Greetings from Poland! We all have to stay strong and stand up to a bully! Trump makes exactly what putin wants - destroy America! when Americans are going to see it????

Absolutely embarrassing to be an American these days. Trump has made us a joke on the world stage. Canadians get to have real leadership, we get to have a man-child with a fragile ego and zero critical thinking skills. God help us! ?

Trump is just doing it to draw attention away from his own country. He can blame Canada and every other country for American problems but that's not gonna work on American people. It's entirely disappointing that trump is pushing away American allies and bizarre that he thinks the economy will be better off.

Thank god for Trudeau. It is not Americans but Trump who is causing all this chaos. It is Trump that wants this trade war not the American people. Great speech.

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

What a leader!!! I’m an American but I’m on Canada’s side. Trump is NOT my president. He’s a traitor who needs to be arrested. He’s intentionally trying to cause harm to U.S. and aligning us with Russia and North Korea! Is this what you wanted, America???? Wake the fxck up!!!

I want prices to go down as much as anyone; but I do not want to hurt the citizens in our allied countries or any countries for that matter. Many presidents have tried this many times and have failed. Why does Trump believe he won’t? I love my country but I hope these European and American allies hold strong against Trump. Trump is a liar!

As an American I have been waiting for these trump voters to feel the negative effects of their vote. I stand with Canada. 100 percent

Trump-GOP-Q's nonsense execuse is fentanyl. However, Trump-GOP-Q's reps do not do the best effort to help Americans who are addicted to fentanyl & other drugs. The reason why fentanyl and other drugs keep coming into the USA is because we in America have too many drug addicts, mostly in the red states that vote for Trump-GOP-Q's reps. Medicaid could be used to help our drug addicts to overcome their addiction, but Trump-GOP-Q's are trying to cut $800 million from medicaid & redirect it for tax cuts for the wealthy. Dumb Trump cannot see.

Mr Trump is a idiot and Racist and traitor and evil. Please Americans get Mr Trump out as soon as possible. It's a shame everyone is scared of the traitor Mr Trump

It is not Americans, it is the duecshbag Donald Fucking Trump's idea

I hope Americans are happy with their choice of president. I could see this coming a mile away trump is a putin loving dictator that will destroy the free world in under 4 years.
