We now have a criminal administration in the US if that were not enough the leader is also crazy. Americans are only just starting to feel the pain his policies will bring to us and now even more to Canadians whose economy is in a more fragile state than ours. The silver lining is American people will stand with the people of other countries including Canadians to take back their power from a would be dictator who cares not about people but only the bottom line. Appologies to all Canadians from the people of the USA !

You must go to a higher level than just matching Trumps 25%. Make him feel the pain and know Americans will survive all of this. We regret electing D Trump. He is a liar, and isn't doing what he promised. He's making things much worse.

Hi Canada; Today I’m Embarrassed to say; I’m an American Citizen. I for One, Do Not Agree with trump. And I know there are many that feel the Same. trump is Like a Very Bad Virus; We Are All going to get Very Sick from it. But We Will Get Over this Virus. And We Will Get Better. ; Again!

Trump is a dictator unfortunately the Americans are going to feel the pinch because of his poor decisions. What kind of president does this to friends and allies?

The world stands with Canada. America under Trump is no longer a friend or ally. I feel for the moderate Americans having to live alongside the MAGA lunatics.

As an American I feel the deepest shame for everything that this administration is doing to our allies, to our neighbors, to Ukraine and to our own people. ?\nI did NOT vote for the current Administration!!

I feel bad for the American people, I have friends there and they have a hard enough time as it is. This just makes me sad. I also have friends who have died due to fentanyl, fix our border on both sides, damnit. And catch these assholes who are killing both our countries citizens.

I hope the americans that voted for this farce of a government feel every bit of the consequences.

feel sorry for your farmers hope they got what they wanted when they lose there farmes and all the stores that will close 25 billion dollars on vacations GONE buy american products gone day trips gone order on line from usa gone investing gone get the point america

The orange stain does *not* represent the feelings of all, or even most, Americans. We don't want this either.

Being an American right now feels like being a little kid who knows why the cops are at the door at 6AM looking for dad.

Sorry to our closest ally. Trump, the dumbest president in American history, doesn't represent majority of americans. He is a bully and a coward. I'm sure a lot of his supporters have regretted they voted for him. They are feeling the pain and perhaps lost their jobs, too. This moron is 100 percent lunatic.

GOOD JOB CANADA!!! ❤❤❤Do NOT let our POTATO bully you. As an ACTUAL American,and a Minnesotan, I have to apologize. This thing is not how many of us think or feel. I am so sorry for the evilness of this puke.

Canadian here- we are not Anti-American- we are Anti- Trump. Half of Americans did not vote this idiot President. In true Canadian fashion- we feel bad hurting Americans who may lose their jobs over our actions. WE are not at fault for this. TRUMP is at fault!

Thanking the good americans. I do feel sorry for you all. Canada will come out of this stronger and unfortunately some of us will never buy us until you get goverment that will honor their agreements....

America has become an embarrassment...We Americans who didnt vote for him (and some that did) feel powerless. I stand with Canada and Ukraine ???????

We don't necessary like you Justin, I feel like you're a bit out there on the social programs yet this is a defining moment in history. I 100% AGREE with YOU AND STAND WITH CANADA HERE. Trump is as stupid and idiotic as can be. He is defying what it is to be American

As a Canadian I can tell you it is a supremely miserable feeling to have a nation which we have such strong feeling for strike at us like this. It is equally miserable to know that our tariffs will also cause pain to Americans. We are sorry, and I know that is cliche, but we are. Have no doubt, if you know us at all, we will fight back passionately, vigorously and indefinitely. President Trump has done what no one should ever do: put our backs to the wall. We have no choice but to fight back. God help us all!

i am Canadian.....\n\ni am embarrassed by trump and feel for my American brothers..... i want to know what the end game is for trump - if he feels he gonna bully Canada or other nations he has grossly underestimated those that have supported the US through thick and thin...\n\nif his end game is under cutting NATO - he should review history and realize that the only country that ever requested helps officially under NATO was the US which we in Canada offered no questions asked...\n\nall i say to my Amercian brothers, his term is only 4yrs - we will welcome you back into the fold when this nonsense with Trump is over... I just hope that my politicians dont cause any nonsense and toe the line in being professional...

I love Canada and I love all of the Canadian people as an American I feel really bad for you guys because you’re going through what we went through in the Biden administration. It’s gonna get worse until it gets better but it’s up to all of you Canadians to vote the right way next time you need a real man who has power And can deal with your country and puts it first and the citizens first this guy showed up in a Barbie premiere movie wearing the pink outfit that says enough. Trump knows that he needs to go it almost seems like he’s gonna get rid of all the weak leaders so we can have a power for world and bring world Peace. Pray for you guys it will get better but you need to vote him out?

It’s honestly such a disgusting feeling to be an American right now. I love my country and many of its people but the trump administration is tarnishing this country and making it an embarrassment across the globe. I feel powerless and angry. I hope for the best and I fully support this response Canada.

Those tariffs against Canada, Mexico along with the rest of the world has all the hallmarks on what Trump really wants to happen in his project 2025 game plan. American population start to feel the consequences and rise up with protests on the streets, this will then give Trump a false flag to put the military on the streets so he can then crown himself dictator of Russia Mk 2. ?

I feel like Putin and Kremlin has completely brainwashed and poisoned our new Administration so that they act as per Putin vision of aggression. Recent tariff to our neighbors and allies will damage the American economy and hurt America people. No one wins in Tariff war.

Trudeau is a great leader. I’m so sorry for what our loser Trump is doing. I do want Canada to know that Americans are feeling all the bad things that Trump is doing. We cannot let this continue.

The real question is, will the American that will be affected by these changes stand up. Trump and the people in is circle won’t feel the effects of these tariffs. But the average American will. He ran on lowering prices, just to turn around and sing a different tune.. mind you it’s only the second month of his term. What will America look like in 4 years? Will there be an America in 4 years? The average American can’t afford a $400 rainy day. Many rainy days are coming our way..

Please Canada ….. know that most of us do not agree with dictator Trump. As a veteran and American I am truly ashamed of our Putin loving president. Just know the majority of Americans see you as our friend, don’t believe most American’s support this….. I support Canada and what ever they feel they need to do to fight MAGA and our insane president.

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, what is happening in America under Trump is catastrophic! He is not only destroying our relationships with allies like Canada, he is destroying every facet of our government agencies that he can. Trump is Hitler 2.0 and as an American, I am resolved to fight back! I am not alone, 81% of us are angry at what we see happening. It feels like we are watching Pearl Harbor’s attack, only instead of this attack being from a foreign country, it’s being done by our own President whose target is America, her people and our world allies. \nWe are sorry for how he is hurting you. I don’t know how we will stop him, but I can assure you we will!

We need to impeach trump and JD . He has turned its back on our allies and made friends with dictators. I feel bad for Americans that did not vote for trump.

Very good speech. I think Trump is doing this to sabotage Canadian economy, but Americans will feel the pain.

As a Canadian, I can assure you CNN and all Americans, Canada will not back down. Remember this pain your country will feel is not what Canadians want, but our response to your President’s stupidity and apparent new support for our mutual enemy Russia. Get you country back. You are sliding into fascism and authoritarianism. We hope you right your ship.

Question for Americans. Do you finally feel respected again?

As an American, agree with the prime minister 100% and feel helpless with these traitors in power here.

So this will only hurt the Americans ?!? Thanks for feeling sorry for us. It shouldn’t affect you then. Good for you. I never realized we relied on Canada for everything to survive. This is crazy.? ?

Thank god my state won out blue, even if just barely. I would feel so embarrassed living in a red state. Wait nevermind I still am ashamed to be an American for the first time in my entire life, even though I didn't vote for him. Glory to Canada and Slava Ukraini, can't believe I have to remind people of this

Proud Canadian here. So, we all know, including the Americans, that trump is a moron. In my books, he is the economic equivalent of Hitler, and no different from Putin. But my question is, how do you Americans who voted for this bully, feel now? I get it, a lot of American are against what he is doing. But the majority of you voted him in.

Feeling sorry for American people with a KGB agent for President

talking to the american people nor trump is futile. stop being dramatic and copying netanyahu's speach directed to palestinian people. just slam your own tsriffs against the US and let their people feel it! you are such a wimp in dealing with your bully that's why you dontget the respect globally! just do it! and do it fast! jeeez

I wonder how many Americans feel like moving to Canada?

The worst thing that could happen to the American people is Donald Trump. This will eventually affect the world. But those who voted for me must feel horrible. If he countinues on this path America will never recover from the damages imposed by Trump.

We are SO SORRY, Canada! \nThere are MILLIONS of American’s who feel the same… “Make it make sense?!” Thank you Canada for years of wonderful relations. This is what the people want to continue. Thank you PM Trudeau, for speaking the truth and speaking directly to us and our current, unfortunate leadership with facts and decorum. We applaud you standing your ground. Stay strong against our bullying government. It’s a sad, sad time. ❤️‍?

I feel you Trudeau make it make sense because none of this makes sense. Because a felon being president makes no sense. Someone in government not standing up to him makes no sense. I’m disgusted in being an American.

@marys.5050\n0 seconds ago\nMany Americans are horrified. We support you Canada in doing what you need to do. Unfortunately, the people who supported this administration, when the writing was on the wall, are going to need to feel the pain.

As an American, I feel shame for what our unfit executive team is doing to our country and our relationships with our friends and allies and abandoning the Ukrainians to Putin’s war crimes and immoral war. trump is a morally bankrupt miscreant and an embarrassment to America. Canadian friends , rational Americans will course correct and override this maga extremist scourge..

Indians have used Canada like a flop house. Indians go to diploma mills and try to use it as a backdoor to stay in Canada. They take over Canadian communities and try to turn them into India - making the locals feel like foreigners in their own home. They're also involved in a lot of crime. This includes: auto theft rings, synthetic ID/credit fraud, gun and drug smuggling, and one of the largest gold heists in Canadian history at Toronto Pearson airport. Americans have stated that the top nationality entering the US illegally from Canada is Indian. The drugs they are complaining about entering the US from Canada are almost entirely brought in by Indian truck drivers (Google it and find many examples). A Fentanyl super lab in BC capable of producing over 95 million lethal doses that was busted was run by an Indian. This is now threatening trade with our main trade partner as a trade war has just started. ENOUGH ALREADY! Indians need to be sent home, and banned from entering Canada.

As a Canadian, I am more afraid of the people than their healthcare system. And I am chronically ill and would be homeless in America. You seem pretty cool, but living in a place where children have to train for school shootings. I heard they cant even wear light up shoes for their own saftey. Just their hate of immigrants and people in general. Its not the first time that I have heard an American say they want to shoot down all the aliens. Also, wtf! We know you live in America. You dont need to have a flag every 2 meters. ????? even on your clothes. We get it! You're American! I feel like you guys get super offended by everything.

If you ever feel bad for being an American, remember that you at least ain't an canadian.

??? the country that was formed by migrants, stole and invaded the American Apaches, now they feel invaded, we Mexicans crossed the river but the whites crossed the ocean, who is the real iligal ?????

I feel so special being an American. India Hindu and everybody else wants to come here. So we defend ourselves like Fort Knox. Because i am American, I am like gold.

New Yorkers voted for these politicians and DAs so let them live in the cesspool they created. I feel sorry for the Americans who can't afford to move.

Trudeau said to immigrants come to Canada, we have loads of room here, he forgot to say Canada is in recession, they have a massive housing shortage and inflation is rampant plus it's minus 40 so you will freeze to death in the soup queues, that's what happens when people as dumb as Trudeau get elected and virtue signal to make themselves look good and feel good about themselves, speaking while the brain is not connected to the mouth, Trudeau is the worst PM Canada has ever had, period, Biden the worst USA ever had, UKs the worst, the western world needs a complete C changes, a full 360 in its political thinking and reaction or it's going to be overtaken by the third world, you can see this happening in many American cities,
