No Canada was Bidins closest friend Canada need to throw this pos to the kerb or they will be finished. All Trump has done is cut the bleeding of taxpayers money to Canada. Listen to this clown go lol hes the one that forked Canada not Trump. Look at him cry hes so used to getting his own way.

Canada has a real leader with backbone! Trump is a meat puppet ?

We Canadians ??like to say sorry a lot. So here goes. We are sorry Americans elected an evil a..hole. We are sorry we are cancelling all travels to US. We are sorry Trump is tanking the Stock Market. We are sorry Trump did not get to kiss Melania on Jan 6. We Canada are not sorry to fight back with every ounce of strength against an evil bully! ?

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spoke eloquently and professionally as a true leader should. Canada you will get through this. I am neither Canadian or American but I am with Canada but I stand firmly with Canada. I love your country and I love Canadians.❤❤❤❤❤

Go Canada Go. Poor to all Americian have Trump running the show. And watch out you (Americian) might go broke and even like the other 8900+ lost their job.

I ❤ Canada from America.

Castro, we don't care... \n\nSomeone take over Canada so we can not deal with this kid

Wow a leader that actually can speak the language as an adult with intelligence. Trump sounds so dumb compared. It’s up to the American people to show their government that they are on the wrong path. Do it now… we support Americans not their government. Go Canada.

Talk about a kettle calling the pot black. JUSTIN TRUDAU IS A STAIN ON CANADA HIATORY and will go down in history as the worst prime minister in the history of our country

Hit us with equal tariffs. Drown Trump out of office. We hate him. The real American patriots stand with you, Canada.

I am so proud of Canada. The rest of the world needs to step in here. Start putting tariffs on the United States and sanction Trump musk and any Republican that stands with them. Come on the world. The American people need a push to get rid of trump Canada. The true Americans love you guys

Can we have the Canadian President instead of ours? Both Canada and Mexico responds to the requests and demonstrate they are trying to be our allies and for some reason we still proceed into a trade war. I think there's an aspect of the tariffs where it's a tax that's not called a tax, where there will be reductions in taxes for the wealthy and then these tariffs are added taxes for the general population.

Trudeau wants to make Canada an Islamic country. Liberals and NDP should step down from Canada.

All of yall please move to Canada. You hate it so much here and cherish other countries without any knowledge of what is true. Bye bye. Have a nice trip.

We need to stop giving Canada 2 trillion a year we get nothing out of it. Stop giving him that and we can solve our own problems about trade. Donald Trump is smart. Don’t fool yourselves we’re gonna make out in the long run.

We stand with Canada, Mexico. Not all Americans are fools. We are sorry

Though I'm not a fan of Trudeau as a politician, on his response to Trump I'm proud of him. He stood up for Canada with force and truth. People will remember that.

This idiot so call leader destroyed Canada with the evil , woke Liberals, you met your mstch now and I hope Canada becomes apart if USA to teach a lesson to every woke Liberal Canadian, we have to bring back strong Christian family communities and get rid of illegal migrants, transgenders, STOP Sexualizing children, STOP all foreign aid especially to the Ukraine, you help your own first and foremost, this idiot Justin Trudeau has to be kucked out of Canada and never let back aling with every other liberal.

I genuinely wonder what a balance sheet would like before tariffs between what Canada gains from U.S. vs U.S. benefiting from Canada. I’m neutral because I don’t know enough. But I feel like that would be a good place to start before putting the last few months at the forefront.

Stay strong beautiful Canada and thank you for supporting Ukraine ??

America is now run by a communist sympathiser and supported by communist friendly media its leader has already stated he wants to annex Canada, America must now be treated as a threat to all Western countries and isolated from all treaties as its future now lies in partnership with Russia

Thank you Canada, Thank you TRUTH. This is the transparency we have heard about in America and have yet to have seen. As an American, I support you. I am prepared and in Minnesota we HEAR you. We approve of your message. Godspeed!

I'm American and I'm appalled by our current administration. I'm with Canada and Ukraine.

A lot of lumber goes (went) to Canada, what will the terriffs do to that?

So ashamed of the USA. Do you everything you need to do Canada! Fight! Fight! Fight! That’s the only things bullies ever respond to.

Bravo Canada! You know how to elect a leader! Trump and his cronies can place tariffs on anything but they will never earn Trust or Respect.

I hate to see something like this take place, but the bullying behavior of the current administration make it unavoidable. The American people will be the losers. If I were thirty years younger, I'd be packing the Dodge and mapping the quickest route to Canada instead of writing this.

I support Canada and Trump can go to hell

A lot of we Americans are so sorry and sad. I love you, Canada ??You are what a great country looks like❤

yes. Trump has declared (literally) WAR on Canada, Europe, Mexico & Ukraine. What would the US vets from past conflicts protecting democracy, freedom and liberty think? Rolling in their graves!

Trump wants to cripple Canada to annex it so he can have rare minerals for tech. Then he’s closer to Russia for his future plans!

Oh Canada!

Here in the UK we appreciate friendship and loyalty. We will stand by Canada, Ukraine, the Baltic states and Denmark whatever happens.

Lol, so tariffs are a bad thing for the country, but ok for them to implement on theirs, lol!!!! Feed me more BS. Its about who they hurt more. Believe me, its Canada that will feel it more. The US will have more companies popping up to fill the gap.

If you live in the US it's time to move. If you're in Canada or Europe you need to boycott the holy living hell out if US imports, US compaines, and any company that does business in the US. Starve the US of money and plummet the economy. The only effective nonviolent resistance that works is to prevent the coporations from making a profit. \n\nAt least JT had the sense to separate the Smerican people from its current leadership. That's rare in history. \n\nI SUPPORT CANADA AND UKRAINE. FUCK TRUMP.

Well spoken Mr Trudeau. I am proud to be Canadian. I feel sad for both countries. Can't believe that no judge is declaring the National Security argument as unjustified. I thought this was not possible to impose this without voting it properly if national security is not a real threat under the US constitution... And the argument of trade deficit is such a weird concept. Would Trump agenda be more evil here, and use economic force to force Canada to annex them because they want our resources?

This was Trump‘s idea not the people of United States. We love you, Canada.

I'm so sorry Canada, from a sincere American. God bless you guys.

Thank you Governor of Canada

HEY TRUDEAU, WE DON'T NEED CANADA !!!!! YOU NEED US !!!

Prime Minister Trudeau is boldly hitting the nails on the head, and I admire his boldness and honesty as I've always admired Canada and its peoples. Trump is in the back pocket of the Russian dictator. His actions prove it to my satisfaction. Canada has been a staunch friend of the US, a real partner not just for economic benefits for both countries but for a democratic way of life. Canada is a strong democracy whose people are known for their open hearts and minds. I pray that this idiotic trade war started by a man who is subservient to Putin will come to an end. I say to Canadians, let us stick to our common values of democracy, free expression, peaceful borders, and our commitment to the greatest good of the many rather than the greatest good of the few and the Russian dictator.

American here. I stand with Canada and every country that stands up to our bullying, corrupt, soulless, despicable president. ??

Well done CANADA. You have spoken clearly, letting the American people know, that it is the TRUMP GOVERNMENT that is causing the TRADE WAR. Trudeau spoke like a FREIND & ALLI who will not accept anything to do with a TRUMP/PUTIN deal. This is how to deal with a BULLY & A PERSON WHO IS UNTRUSTWORTHY like PRESIDENT TRUMP.

So, you spent all this money, and at the end, the result is 25% US tariffs ??. This simply shows how a lapdog Canada is.

I stand with Canada Mexico UK and Europe. Please don’t hate all of us because of the idiots that are running and elected that idiot. I do not stand with Trump and Russia

Canada is our friendly neighbor, Trump should work with them rather than punish them with tariff. I am pro Trump but no, not this.

European Union here, Czech Republic. We stay with us Canada, we stay with you! And let's bypass Trump's America with Mexico and the whole South America as our allies too. BTW the Arab league can be our friends too and many countries in Africa and Asia, South Africa and Australia as well. Let us not be dominated anymore, let us finally freely cooperate!

I live in canada, Trudeau is the most hated prime minister in history. \nCNN can pander all they want to this dictator, but know this, Trudeau is a wef puppet and doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself. \n\nThis joke of a speech is just a photo op and acting tough because an election is coming.

As an American, I stand with Canada, Mexico & Ukraine not the way our government has chosen to act on the world stage!?

Please Canada, hate Donald and those who supported him but remember not all of us support him. I hope you punish America enough that we buckle under your pressure.
