I am a proud to be a Canadian! I have not bought anything American since this crap has started. Justin Trudeau, you have really stepped up to the plate! Well done! You have proved you do love Canada, unconditionally! ♥️♥️♥️♥️??????????????

I'm doing ongoing research to cease any spend on any US product or service. I'm buying software from Europe, using Posteo for email, deGoogling this year and vastly reducing Youtube. I trace all groceries to eliminate anything US sourced and I now check that products are Mexican and Canadian as much as I'm able and they are supplying. I've stopped planning trips to LA and NYC, I might resume if American voters ever have the good sense to vote en masse against obviously fascist plans and personalities. I've holidayed in Mexico three times and would visit Canada and Europe in future. US is not safe for everyone any longer, not even its citizens and looks to be getting increasingly insecure and offering prosperity only to the already mega rich through crooked policies and agencies. Every week or two I double check the facts on groceries and online products/services to make sure I'm not accidentally buying American. The election was so compromised in November I'm glad people are realising the only action we can take is with our wallets from not logging in to 'big tech' to buying bread and apples etc.

I do believe that doing this to Canada is gonna hurt us badly...

No one is going to move their manufacturing to Canada

Stay strong Canada from ??

Canada, do what you got to do.

Let's go canada ??!! Full support ??. I will go and by lots of canadian exports ?

I’m proud of Canada! American here ?

I stand with Canada and Ukraine! I am American and I am embarrassed and afraid!

I want to move to Canada.

Canada -- Congratulations to you for not supporting Putin's puppy. Trump's damned fool supporters deserve the results of their meanness and boundless stupidity. Too bad farmers, Cubans, anti-immigrant racists, holy rollers, misogynists, and fools. You go, Trudeau. Trump cannot be trusted in any way. Born damaged. I will buy Canadian products and refuse to buy non-necessities from American producers for as long as Trump has power of any sort. Trump is working for Russia and the Republicans are helping him. I don't forget those who attack my family. TRUMP WORKS FOR RUSSIA.

Trudeau and leftist policies mismanaged the country for an entire decade and State media turned the JT anger and pushed it into Trump. Canada was almost free of leftist politics

Canada better elect a new Prime Minister because this guy is horrible.

He spoke well. Assertive and respectful. Protective of Canada without attacking the American people. Good balance.

How about you address the problems in your shitty country then maybe we would reconsider. But honestly, this isn’t going to affect America one percent as it will affect Canada so I really don’t care. Tax my syrup big whoop.

Trudeau should have told the world that the reason Donald duck Trump wants Canada is because Putin wants it if the idiot Donald duck Trump can take Canada it would be agift to putin so that Donald Duck Trump is the king of the United States

go canada

What have u done lately Trudeau I don't think so Canada is nothing without US???

Although I don’t agree with Trumps actions let’s not forget what Trudeau and his party did to Canada…

Can you imagine being such a small weak country like Canada and not just bend over backwards for a country that could make or break you. It's not 'right' but this is how the things work outside of fairytales.

Respect to Canada from Britain. ❤

Canada: we would be pleased to trade Trump for Trudeau. PLEASE!

Canada is grotesquely liberal. We DONT want to work with YOU dummy

Real Americans stand up when a friend is threatened. Canada has the people's support.

We kenyans stand with Canada and Ukraine

Why you are so worried, you’re days are numbered after October you’re gone. Remember your winter last almost 7 months.\nNobody will invest in that kind of weather. US just have 500 billion dollars and 100 billion dollars of investment just signed days ago.\nThis speech really makes you are really worried. Why they are no Starbucks in Canada only Tim Horton that’s why you have this tarrifs ???

Import quotas would have been more punitive/effective.\n\nBUT\n\nGO CANADA!

Good luck Canada ???

So impressed with Trudeau and Canada as a whole. This should make any self respecting American citizen feel embarrassed to compare their apology for a president to this man and his team. P.S. Note to Trudeau - Trump is NOT a very smart guy, don't do what the rest of the world is trying to do, flatter this susceptible idiot hoping to get him on side, it won't, it just makes him certain that he is so special and clever and makes his behaviour 100% worse.

As a Brit I'm applauding Trudeau and Canada, all power to your elbow.

He thinks we want it. He’s wrong. I don’t I’m sorry it’s happening. I’m sad I’m an American. As a Christian I will be praying earnestly and to Canada- I Am personally sorry for stupid people ?

Greetings from California! I stand with all of our friends in Canada, Mexico and China! I did not vote for this catastrophe but am definitely feeling the pain of these horrendous tariffs. My heart is with our friends up North and I hope you understand that many of us here in the US did not want this. We are plagued with a complete nut case for a President who was given the ultimate power of house and Senate majority plus the Supreme Court so there is no fix for the nightmare in the near future. All I can say is I am sorry for what we all have to endure now.

It is a surreal moment when USA has entered into a war with our best friend and ally neighbor Canada, and we don't even know why. Nobody voted for this, did MAGA vote for this? Why on earth we are allowing Trump to do it, why Congress is allowing it, why aren't we on the streets protesting, do we want to wait until it gets worse, or beyond the point of return? Trump is a madman, petty, vindictive, selfish, ignorant and totally brainwashed by Putin and his agenda to divide us. Trump is the Manchurjan candidate, planted to destroy us from within. US at war with Canada, even if is a trade war, is scandalously unprecedented and is treasonous.

I am an ashamed American who stands with Canada and all countries who do not support Putin or Trump! Freedom for all that have humanity.

This is a true leader! Not a bullying inept leader! Much respect Canada! I'm an American!

Canada absolutely should be getting closer to the UK and the commonwealth. A strong commonwealth and god willing, a CANZUK alliance

The clapping seals in here don't remember all the jobs that Americans lost to Canada. All the automotive jobs. Just look at Detroit. Thats because of Canduhduh.

The irony is, Canada will take measures to address the cost of living. The US will keep giving $$$$ to billionaires. Trump/ Republican's do not care about everyday people.

Just to be clear…. Most Americans DO NOT WANT THIS! We love you Canada, we do NOT trust Trump! we are embarrassed, ashamed and humiliated. We are so sorry!

What has this got to do with putin tho. Did he allow Fentanyl to enter the United States thru Cananda? No Canada did. Is he the one not doing enough to stop Fentanyl entering the united states? no Canada did. Maybe if Trudeau could just use the effort he is using to oppose America right now to eliminate Fentanyl from Canada. it would resolve the problem.

It's just my opinion but I like Russia better than Canada seems like you guys rely heavily on the USA what's up with that

That is how a leader of a country speaks to his people. Calm, articulate, no name calling or yelling and no lies. I am an American but I support Canada in this.

Canada you are in a pickle because of your government's ignorance America is your trading partner you cannot survive without us we have too many trading partners wise up little man

Justin Trudeau is such a courageous and good leader. I stand with you, Canada.?

My recommendation for Canada is to trade and work closely with China and Mexico. It could raise more jobs and minimize the loss from the trade war.

the US didnt launch a trade war you stupid fux.. we have had a trade DEFICIT with Canada and just about every other country for YEARS. Trump wants reciprocal trade. congratulations Mr. Prime Minister you just dug your own grave. Canada cannot survive without the US.

As an American i support Canada, do what you need to do for your country and people. Trump is the worst president of my lifetime and thats saying a lot.

Canada hit the US hard ! Thank yo for standing up to this traitor !

The audacity and disrespect, bullying behaviour of Trump saying that Canada should be 51st state of the US. Trump is definitely siding with Putin, and mirroring his behaviour and ideology. It's outrageous! Ppl need to start rallying and protest

I am an American standing with Canada, Ukraine and Mexico!!!
