Canada, please take me. I'm not that far away in Wisconsin. I'm so ashamed to be called an American at this point.

Canada must understand United States is not the enemy. There is a common enemy for both Canada and the United States which is China. Canada should focus on countering China and not the United States.

Bravo Canada.

Your General said this is isolating Canada. No it isn't. The UK, Europe and Asia are very open to trade. Indeed many have existing deals which can only grow.\n\nI hear that there are a great many frustrated Americans. Americans who don't want this trade war. Unfortunately Your commander in chief is Your voice on the World stage. His choices are effectively Your choices. HE represents your country. It's him we have to deal with, or not, as the case may be.\n\nUntil you can wrestle the House, the Senate and ultimately the Oval, off these walking-disasters The US with edge closer and closer to being a Paraiah state.\n\nGood luck with that. You're going to need it. The World is already making alternative plans wrt defence, trade and political ideology. All without the US... think about that....

Great speech. But won't work I'm afraid. You used a lot of words, so you lost Trump after the first sentence. And more important, you forgot to say, 'thank you USA'.\nI'm from Europe: we stand by Canada! You should build a big wall, to keep Trump and his corrupt groupies inside the usa. We will help pay for it, and I think Mexico will do too.

I grew up 30 min from the Canadian border. Canada has always been a neighbor and a friend. I cannot believe what has happened to our government and I did not vote for this. The majority of America does not want this and do not want Trump. Please know that.

Canada ?? strong and free ?

GOD BLESS CANADA, LONG LIVE CANADA. I am a student immigrant who had a choice between US and Canada. I chose Canada, and I have never regretted my choice. The people might not know this but Canada is an amazing country. People have no idea how Canadians have built a fantastic country in some of the toughest conditions. Canadians are some of the most polite, helpful and kind people.

Donald Trump is an idiot. The only reason he is pissed at Canada is that both his daughter and his wife wanted to sleep with our PM. Thankfully he turned them both down. The US is turning into a pathetic isolationist country. Good luck to you as you align with Russia. Idiots!

Trump is attempting to offset his tax cuts by implementing a tax that isn't called a tax. All of the money from the tariffs goes to the government. Trump has mentioned when tariffs were common as supporting what he is doing, but he doesn't add that at that time, there wasn't an income tax, so tariffs were how the government supported itself. Trump, knowing that tariffs are income for the government, is lying to his base so they will accept the increased prices as a necessary evil to battle the bad countries of Mexico and Canada. It will look like his tax breaks aren't hurting as much as they are and price increases will be the fault of the other countries.\n\nTrump is a conniving grifter with no knowledge of how to run a country's economy or international trade. He is gaslighting the American public to cover his own shortcomings.\n\nAlso, if fentanyl is entering the US, why is it the fault of the other countries? It is the job of the US to stop anything on its side of the border. Canada and Mexico do what they can to catch the drugs while inside their respective countries. The tons of cocaine and guns that enter Canada and Mexico from the US are caught by their border services; they don't blame the US for the products getting past their own border agents, and the US takes no responsibility for it making it across the border. Why is it other countries' fault for drugs getting past the US's border agents, but not the fault of the US that guns and drugs are going in the other direction? That is why countries work together, not fight over whose fault it is and try to punish each other.

“Need Canada”? We need Canada? I think they need us more then they need us

Canada is toothless tiger of ? world

I’m an American and I support Canada, Ukraine and NATO. Trump is a Russian asset.

Reassuring to see so many country leaders talk so professionally in the wake of the Clown leader of the Circus in the US, have so much respect for Trudeau and the people of Canada, I feel so sorry for the American people your leader is an embarrassment to you and the world, regards from Down Under??

nobody in canada cares what this idiot says we need real leadership not a dramatic chump

Trudeau you are a weak lying snake bending truth to your victim narrative. Trump put you on notice regarding tariffs and here we are. Do you think he is not a man of his word? Well you have now experienced that this is in fact the case first hand. You have taken from America with very little in return and these are the consequences of your woke agenda for Canada. Look at you spouting venom, dischord and anarchy from your pulpit. Trump is interested in econmic revival for America and if you are not on board you will fall by the wayside. Only smart leaders realise throwing insults at Trump will only weaken your countries position. Surely you realise Trump is one of the most persecuted people on the planet, unjustly so, and your rhetoric will fall on deaf ears in the whitehouse. They've heard all the nonsense before. But, continue throwing the insults, chuck your toys out the pram, if it makes you feel like a grownup. I don't fancy your chances though.

Why didn’t Canada implement theses protections from Fentanyl before the US initiated Tarrifs

I am American and I stand with Donald Trump. Canada needs to shut their borders down with the fentanyl. It's killing all our people they buy. What they want and they charge us a fortune. They don't do nothing for America. Canada, does everyone should do for America? As Americans stand up for the USA thank you.

Murderer? How many people died for USA to be established, Canada, Australia, Hawaii, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. I can go on and on. Let's be honest with ourselves

As an American, I stand with Canada.

The world respects you Canada

American from Wisconsin. Standing in support of Canada. This country is going down the tubes fast! I hope that all Americans will take time to listen to your speech before listening to the BS that we will get from Trump tonight.......

Great talker….speaks from the heart….UK Prime Minister speaks from his arse.All the best Canada from the UK ??

I don’t stand with anyone except the UNITED STATES Of AMERICA! But I want to make something very clear. We just went through 4 years of absolute hell with The Biden administration!! No way around it. And the democrats will do anything to make trump look bad no matter if it hurts our country or not. They simply hate the fact that the checks and the cross dressing and what ever nasty crap they spent our money on . They won’t talk about that! But what I want to know is why we aren’t saying ok Canada we spend trillions militarily protecting you. And the won’t even come up to the 2% on defense they lied about participating in. Why should we pay for everything then they want to tax us?? Should America not get something for protection of a country?? Why do we need to pay there bills? Why should we pay for a war we’re not in? Ukrainian war Americans pay?? No! Canada dosent defend themselves Americans pay?? Then when we tax them like they tax us they want to slap a gift horse in the mouth??

He's in it for the Long Haul oh that's right he stepped down he's going to blow a whole bunch of smoke up Canada's ass and then he's going to walk away from all this

Trump is the great shame of America. As an American citizen I stand with Canada

We’re sorry Canada some people voted for an idiot for a president and we’re all paying for it.

As a United States ?? citizen living in Canada ?? “I’m proud of you ?? Prime Minister Justin Trudeau!

Maybe if Trudeau didn’t assist illegals (and fentanyl) flowing into our country we wouldn’t put tariffs on Canada. MAGA

Do what y’all have to do Canada we need help ?

Whatever you think of Trudeau, that was a brilliant speech. Not a rambling rant like comrade dump. Go Canada Go

This is not going to hurt America. Trudeau is a loser. Didn't he resign? This will cripple Canada's economy, it will not effect the US. You think Canada is in a good place now?... Your crazy. Canada f'd around and now they are going to find out.

Also if Canada is already dealing with the drug issues why are we doing this tariff with them

Canada's Trudeau is the dictator, not Putin. Funny how all these dicators, Trudeau, Zelensky, US demo party call Trump and Putin dictators...they call everyone exactly what they themselves actually are

Australia stands proudly with Canada we are so very proud of you all . TRUMP YOU ARE DISGRACEFUL

What liberals don’t know is this is a way to get Canada to the negotiating table along with other countries. It works ????

Thank you Canada we the people do not want this either

Give us hell canada. Its he only way to get rid of this administration

???❤❤❤???????VIVA CANADA!

I stand with Canada. I don't fuck with Trump and his cronies.

It’s time all countries stand up to the USA as Canada is doing so. Put tariffs on your country, return the favour and do it back.

Canada?from??Indonesia

Just one US Citizen apologizing to all of Canada.?. I am sorry this has happened and I apologize for my fellow citizens that voted for this administration.

I am unfortunately American and I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine!! I voted for her!

America does not need Canada. This is what Americans' voted for.

Good for you ? ? Canada

Definitely an articulate speaker- unlike Trump’s vocabulary of a 4th grader. \n\nWill Trudeau’s speech be broadcast on Fox News? The MAGA viewers need to watch this.\n\nSpoiler alert: All the Republican Congressmen puppets will line up and condemn Canada.

I am Ukrainian, stand with Canada !!!!

Trump only did this cause he wanted Canada to become his beloved 51 state, and Canada denied. Canadians are the best, f@ck Trump. All support from Denmark ?? ❤

Governor Trudeau needs to realize Canada eats at the little kid table.
