Update 3/2/25 Canada and Mexico caved to Trump's demands and are giving him what he wants, the stop the flow of illegal aliens and drugs into the US on the Mexico/US/Canada borders. Canada and Mexico now joins Columbia, Venezuela, and Panama for countries bending the knee to Trump's demands. This video did not age well with Trudeau imposing tariffs on American products into Canada.

Cry your illegal eyes out boo hoo hoo. Americans are sick of you coming here and just taking and taking. Go back and make your countries better. Thank you ICE and President Trump! ??♥️??

Yes! President Trump and God's Cabinet Jesus Christ is guiding each one Listen closely to The Lord and Holy Spirit God Wins! I'm 74 survivor of stroke Covid Hurricane Ian, lost home job finances now I'm on a friend's Sofa in totally different state ! This should Not be Happening in Christians or Americans!

I appreciate the woke community, they are the reason the American people voted Trump

Canada and Mexico need to find other trade partners and have stronger relationships with other countries and start trading with each other stop relying on America for everything just because they are closer start trading with Denmark . Canada in general get along better with other countries better then America America will end up suffering not Canada . When you start treating your trading partners bad it only affects America in the end ….. Canada will find other countries. We are not hated around the world …. They want to pick a fight with Canada then stop being so nice ?. As a Canadian it’s too stop relying on America for everything we have our own natural resources and trump wants them . Cut him out 100%. Let America be it’s on island time to start trading with other countries. Americans will end up paying MORE FOR ITS PICK UP TRUCK the jokes on them . Stop selling gas to the USA on a discount make them pay higher prices.

Deport deport deport yes that’s what a majority of us Americans want ……… thank you president trump ????????????

American here, Trump is what happens when you elect dumb and dishonest people to run your government. This is all just ' smoke and mirrors ' to make the rich richer and the rest of us poorer.

No fan of the EU but if it's their turn the EU will respond back which is good. As in Sweden we have incredibly good cooperation with Canada, Brazil but also India and that will be strengthened. Most of them will probably boycott American goods here in Sweden. Trump will probably kick himself in the balls if he confronts the EU because it will backfire on him

YUUPP!DEPORT ALL!..IT'S HIGH TIME NATIVE AMERICANS GOT THEIR LAND BACK!!!...SO TRUMP WHERE WILL HE GO ,MEXICO? OR...what about the white PPL? Will they go to EUROPE???

I've been to the states many times! My opinion is that Americans focus on wallets more than social issues! Americans care more about their own circumstances than working together to help the whole of the population. No one likes to pay more taxes but they are a nessesary evil to be able to pay for health care, public security, and so on! So sure Americans don't pay as much for some things but pay more for things that they shouldn't pay! Health care is something that is very important, how can you be expected to pay for health services if you can't work cause you're ill, doesn't make any sence! Even Americans leave thier country because of what it's becoming! 50- 100 years ago everyone wanted to immigrate to America or Canada, now a days everyone is immigrating here to Canada. Should I have to explain why! It's sad but the U.S.A isn't what it used to be. Mostly because of corporate greed and the influence it has on the gouvernment! Just look at how Trump is running things. A country isn't a bussiness, it's a people, without the people a country is nothing. Too bad Trump and his billionaire butt licking friends can't see that!

Trump accuses EU for not buying American cars\nWhy would we?\nWe have Volvo, BMW, Audi,Vw etc.

These TRUMP Tariffs are going to be the biggest governmental heist of the population in American history, with TRUMP thieving much of the money for his own gain. \nHe can’t help himself, he’s a thief, and a raider to the core. You watch, this time it’ll be blatant.

Trump says EU tariffs will ‘definitely happen’ as Mexico, Canada and China retaliate \nTrump takes softer line on UK, saying ‘I think that one can be worked out’, while Mexico and Canada vow levies and to strengthen ties with each other \n \nPhilip Wen, Léonie Chao-Fong and agencies \nMon 3 Feb 2025 03.57 GMT \nShare \nDonald Trump has threatened to widen the scope of his trade tariffs, repeating his warning that the European Union – and potentially the UK – will face levies, even as he conceded that Americans could bear some of the economic brunt of a nascent global trade war. \n \nIt comes as Trump’s tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, announced on Saturday, sparked retaliation from all three countries. Mexico and Canada have vowed levies of their own while China and Canada are seeking legal challenges. \n \nTrump said on Sunday night that new tariffs on the EU will “definitely happen”, repeating previous complaints about the large US trade deficit with the bloc and his desire for Europe to import more American cars and agricultural products. \n \nEmpty shelves remain with signs ''Buy Canadian Instead'' after the top five US liquor brands were removed from sale at a British Columbia liquor store in Vancouver. \nAsian sharemarkets tumble in response to Trump tariffs \nRead more \n“It will definitely happen with the European Union, I can tell you that,” he told reporters. “I wouldn’t say there’s a timeline but it’s going to be pretty soon.” \n \nTrump appeared to take a softer line on the UK, citing a good relationship with prime minister Keir Starmer while saying tariffs still “might happen”. “The UK is out of line but I’m sure that one, I think that one can be worked out,” he said. \n \n“Well Prime Minister Starmer’s been very nice, we’ve had a couple of meetings, we’ve had numerous phone calls, we’re getting along very well, we’ll see whether or not we can balance out our budget.” \n \nIn Canada, the department of finance published a list of US products imported into Canada that it will target with a 25% retaliatory tariff starting on Tuesday. \n \nThe list shows products that will be hit in the first round of retaliatory tariffs by Canada starting on Tuesday, and mounts to $30bn Canadian dollars’ worth of goods (about US$20bn). The impacted products include tobacco, produce, household appliances, firearms and military gear. \n \nCanada is also preparing for a second, broader round of retaliatory tariffs in 21 days that will target an additional C$125bn (US$86bn) worth of US imports. The second list would include passenger vehicles, trucks, steel and aluminum products, certain fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, dairy products and more. \n \nFILES-US-CANADA-MEXICO-CHINA-TRADE-TARIFFS<br>(FILES) US President Donald Trump speaks to the press after signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC on January 31, 2025. Trump is imposing steep tariffs on major US trading partners Canada, Mexico and China, with a lower rate on Canadian energy imports, said the White House on February 1, 2025. Washington will impose a 25 percent levy on imports from Canada and Mexico, with a 10 percent rate on Canadian energy resources, until both work with the United States on drug trafficking and immigration. Goods from China, said the White House, would face 10 percent tariffs.

Sheinbaum, in a statement on Sunday, said she will announce details on her government’s “plan B” as she insisted that Mexico “doesn’t want confrontation”. \n \n“Problems are not addressed by imposing tariffs, but with talks and dialogue,” she said. “Sovereignty is not negotiable: coordination yes, subordination no.” \n \n'Coordination yes, subordination no': Mexican president responds to Trump's tariffs – video \nSheinbaum and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau spoke by phone on Saturday after Trump’s administration imposed the new tariffs – 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, with a lower rate of 10% for Canadian oil, and 10% on imports from China. \n \nTrudeau’s office said in a statement that Canada and Mexico agreed “to enhance the strong bilateral relations” between their countries. Canadian officials have had extensive dialogue with their Mexican counterparts, but a senior Canadian official said he would not go as far as to say the tariff responses were coordinated. \n \n“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau posted Sunday on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.” \n \nTrump acknowledged the sweeping tariffs he has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China may cause “short term” pain for Americans as global markets reflected concerns the levies could undermine growth and reignite inflation. Asian markets, cryptocurrencies and US and European stock futures slumped in early Asian trading on Monday. \n \n“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said. day, Trudeau said: “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.” However on Sunday evening, a senior government official from Canada briefing reporters in Ottowa on condition of anonymity said: “We will obviously pursue the legal recourse that we believe we have through the agreements that we share with the United States.” \n \nThe official said the Canadian government considered the move by Trump illegal and said it violates the trade commitments between the two countries under their free trade agreement and under the World Trade Organization. \n \n“If other legal avenues are available to us, they will be considered as well,” the official said. \n \nCanada is the largest export market for 36 states, and Mexico is the largest trading partner of the US. \n \nCanada and Mexico ordered the tariffs despite Trump’s further threat to increase the duties charged if retaliatory levies are placed on US goods. \n \nChina also said it would file a lawsuit against the tariffs. The imposition of tariffs by the US “seriously violates” World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement, urging the US to “engage in frank dialogue and strengthen cooperation”. \n \nFiling a lawsuit with the WTO would be a largely symbolic move that Beijing has also taken against tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles by the EU. \n \nThe commerce ministry also said the tariffs were “not only unhelpful in solving the US’s own problems, but also undermine normal economic and trade cooperation”. China has said it would take countermeasures to “safeguard its own rights and interests”. It is not clear exactly what form these will take yet. But for weeks Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning has said Beijing believes there is no winner in a trade war. \n \nLate Sunday night, Trump said he would speak with Trudeau on Monday morning and shortly after said he would speak with Mexico as well, although he did not specify that he would speak with Sheinbaum. \n \nBeyond the official response, people were already thinking of ways to cope with Trump’s decision, including by sharing suggestions on social media for alternatives to US products. \n \nCanadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem on Saturday night at two National Hockey League games. The booing continued on Sunday at an NBA game in Toronto where the Raptors played the Los Angeles Clippers. \n \nFrom left to right, Toronto Raptors forwards Bruce Brown, Scottie Barnes and Chris Boucher react as fans boo the United States national anthem before NBA basketball game action against the Los Angeles Clippers in Toronto, Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025. (Frank Gunn/The Canadian Press via AP) \nToronto Raptors fans boo US national anthem after Donald Trump tariffs \nRead more \nOne fan at the Raptors game chose to sit during the anthem while wearing a Canada hat. Joseph Chua, who works as an importer, said he expects to feel the tariffs “pretty directly”. “I’ve always stood during both anthems. I’ve taken my hat off to show respect to the American national anthem, but today we’re feeling a little bitter about things,” he said, adding that he will start to avoid buying US products. \n \nIn the streets, people in Mexico were trying to absorb the announcement on Sunday, although some in the capital acknowledged that they were unaware of the measures. \n \nIn the border city of Mexicali, across from Calexico, California, some people were concerned about the wider implications of a trade war. \n \nDriver Alejandro Acosta says that he crosses the border weekly in his truck to deliver vegetables to US companies. He said he fears US businesses in the Mexicali Valley will no longer want to operate in Mexico and they will move to the US. \n \n“If they raise taxes on the factories here, jobs may also decrease,” he said.

Baby Trump is trying his Hardest to go Down as the Dumbest American President.\nHe Likes to Brag about being #1 so he shouldn't have a Problem Wrecking the Country.

Go home and fix your own country and let Trump and the American people fix ours!!

The craziest thing is the despite Trump winning the election most Americans are anti-Trump and oppose his nonsense. But just like in 16’ everything will backfire on them, they clearly did not learn their lesson.

To me all need to go back all we as Americans have done enough and thank you so much President Trump

Okay if Trump the Imports everyone that's a immigrant there won't be nobody left to run the country who is he going to have run it robot Elon Musk Facebook inventor the rich he's going to put them in there with him to run the country and take care of the United States of America because Trump is going to send everybody back to their countries so who's going to run America because half of America is all immigrants their Heritage their families are all here without them America can't survive Aldi's American white uneducated hillbilly people that you're trying to put into the capital the White House the government are all losers sex offenders alcoholics crime criminals you release half of the criminals in prison so is that going to run the country maybe they might get mad and come up there and attack you have you ever thought about that for what you did to them with your lies you lied about winning the election and you lied about it and they all went to prison for you because you lied Mr President Trump you are you using Revenge well guess what Revenge will come back to you one day the criminals you left out are going to visit you surprise surprise????????????

China is standing by waiting for mexico and canada . Thry are not scared of trump. We will suffer. Everthing will go up . Poeople dont be fooled trudeau is right Americans will feel it.. watch chine closesly they will trade more with china

You know the Democrats are gone try to say ole the black that is why Trump sending them back . Trump and the American People want all illegals out we do t care what Color you are. Dems run on using the Racecard.

They got all kinds of free services from the Government, free housing, free medicade, now Americans have waited 5-6 months on food stamps an still haven't got them, Biden should be charged for putting our Country in this shape, we are pissed off because of this, than God Trump is back in Office.

Wow the first Mexican/ American at that, says the first real thing. I mean Mexicans wave there flags & talk about there country so much yet you guys don’t want to be there. Yes yes yes I know the cartel, but like this women said it’s time to take your country back. Ask trump for help with taking back.

I will help you because you turned blind.\n\nTrump followed the Putin doctrine.\n\n1: Ally with Oligarchs \n2: Paint a false picture about the world/brainwash people.\n3: now for the future (make Americans more poor) that way they have less power.\n\n4: Take the territories you like for legacy. (If Trump snatches Canada and Greenland) USA will be the biggest country in the world.\n\nCongratz The world now has one more dictator to deal with.\n\nHope this was what the voters hoped for.

The only thing that will get Trump to pull in his horns is for countries to respond with counter-tariffs that will HURT Americans big time. Trump said they don't need our energy. Let's shut down hydro electricity sales to the US and allow millions of residences and industry go dark in winter and wait for Trumps call to negotiate. The US NEEDS Canadian resources and we should use that to our advantage.

I have lived in Canada for 70 yrs. We will not submit to a want a be dictator-. Hes putting the blame on us when its his fault from all his failed promises hes made before and now. Hes really going to hurt the American people with everything going up in price. Trump will be made to step down im sure do to his ridiculous actions.

canada and mexico are just whining. trump just want to share the american economic pain with his closest brothers and have equal fair trade. no one talk about the offers. they didn’t do the offer so they get hit with tariffs.

Canada ?? China ?? and Mexico ?? should put Tariff 100% on tesla Ford and Chevy and all American vehicles right away, bevause Elon is the Reason We American and Canadian people are not getting Affordable Vehicle from Chinese Automotive industry. He is the one giving trump ideas of tarriff on every country. Tit for tat.

As an American, I am utterly ashamed of Trump. I voted for Harris and I was heartbroken when she lost. God help us!

Trump making China great again and Americans poor

This will destroy Canada. Trump will cut off all trade, and the Canadian economy will collapse. There is nothing the USA needs from Canada.Add that with cutting off aid, Canada will fall into a deep depression... So as a American ,this makes me very happy

Black American veteran and I support this. Go Trump, get er done.

We'll just have to see how it plays out for the US. Because if Trump's plan does work for Americans in the long run then I guess he's a genius otherwise he'll look like a complete fool if he has to rollback Tariffs because his plan failed

'Deaf ears of mr. trump' - rather rotten brain of mr. tump - chosen by the majority of Americans, who should be retributed to the maximal measure for that disgraceful atrocity and foul calamity of the president. As Americans en masse understand only the money language, they should be explained - on their degradation - in that language.

drugs are just an excuse to start an economic war... the Americans voted for Trump and now they have to pay for it

What a nice saying, Golden Age , Trump wants to punish other countries , unfortunately American people will be the one that suffers the most

Don't buy into this Canadians. \nThese Liberals are delighted they can now campaign against Trump instead of Canada's conservatives. \nTrudeau's tariffs on American imports will directly raise prices in Canada, not the US, and will provide a windfall of tax money for his spendthrift government.

And duped MAGAs believe Trump!!! No duped MAGAs 90% of fentanyl comes from Americans!

Trump did a favor to Canada if these dumb liberals can understand! Stop being dependent on Americans by lifting taxes tariffs between provinces, lift the dumb carbon tax and build pipelines!

I'm not sure the typical Americans understand the consequences of what Trump is doing.

I look across the river every morning to look at Michigan. I feel sorry for the guy who voted for Trump that’s now out of a job but elections have consequences. Funny, it only took Trump 11 days to screw the North American economy. It’s like we are casinos. Who looses money running a casino?

Dont blame Trump for all this. Blame President Lincoln, Wilson, Taft for creating taxes. Roosevelt for enacting a bill into law for charging taxes to the American people for social security, Reagan for shutting down factories in US & leaving US to foreign Countries for cheaper cost. Bush, Obama, Biden for bad foreign trading policies & bad spending usage, budgeting of our tax payers money that put US in dept by the trillions. These past Presidents were running our Country into the ground at our expense. President Trump is getting back our Country out of Debt. Alot of reforms needs to happen. Decrease taxes on everything, make startup business easy to survive & sustain. Enact bills into laws to control all Corporations from overpricing their goods to consumers. Lower all consumer goods. Give tax breaks to all business. Taxes should come from other Countries & zero from the American peoples pockets, end to taxing the American people. ✊️

Trump has ruined North American relations forever.

Trump makes no sense. Americans make no sense for voting for him.

Trump NOT taking Trudeau CALLS, NOT SURPRISED, here in the USA, Americans DO that when they've done Something to target You and right After they Deny ALL Communication with you-typical American-Arrogance. Hopefully, Trump will NOT have to REGRET his Decisions.

Keep in mind that the Trump's Trade War is a distraction to cover for the horrific dismantling of the American Government and Democracy, as well as his horrific choices for Cabinet positions and Heads of Departments. / NO, Pierre Poilievre will not be our PM, he's a smarmy Trumplican.

Already TWO AIRPLANE CRASHES right after Trump took Office, and NOW the Tariffs that will AFFECT and impact negatively the AMERICAN PEOPLE for the long Run. NOT a GOOD MOVE.

Trump disrespects Canada ? by imposing these tariffs. Canadians need to stop buying American products.

Imposing tariffs means ordinary Americans pay more, reducing their disposable income. And then there comes the tax cut, which disproportionally benefits the rich. This is essentially socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor. Trump knows how to make Billionaires even richer.

Some migrants release from jail from their government to live in the US, so unfair to Americans, living with criminals anywhere. Thank you Pres. Trump.
