At this juncture the whole world have seen how ignorant American voters are by allowing this low profile exconvict and a draft dodger to dictate for a country like America , TRUMP himself is illitrate forget about the English language the man knows nothing when it comes to international politics and how American foreign policies work , a man with zero experience public office how can he rule but guess what American people deserve everything thats been happening to them , they better stfu and deal with it

I guess Putin is the real winner here.

Love to Canada from Washington State. We don't want this either. I have been crying inside ever since Garfield staged that coup On Jan 6th, 2010. Guess what. The American courts said Garfield doesn't get Presidential Immunity for his actions on Jan 6th because he WAS NOT PRESIDENT AT THE TIME OF HIS CRIMES. Little by little . . .

You were simply asked to secure the border and stop the flow of fentanyl but I guess that China is lining your pockets to much to care about that.

As a American ,we can't make it make sense at all, our president dreams to be a murderous dictator too I guess

Funny Canada and US go hand and hand , but I haven’t seen Trudeau at the bargaining table with US on anything other then their own self interesst… odd how that works. hmm there’s just a empty seat next to trump and Putin, not your place I guess.. governors don’t usually do that sort of thing. ?

I guess if the us went low they dragging them to h311.

Listen B 4real everyone. President Trump had 2c all his allies back him. Defend him. During President Trump's campaign, he gave clear instructions on these plans. Some 4 the citizens. Some financial issues. Safety crisis as well. ?? & ?? Thought he, President Donald Trump, was playing games. Guess what he gave grace but wasn't lying. Canadians spokesperson, clean up in-house 1st. U should be out. Where is the, newly elect??‍????. Message 4 the newbie. He's not playing pls recognize.?? Certain games shouldn't be played.

Sekkle urself. 4 years to stop a war???Maybe them 2 can't do no good in the ? of the past!!! WAR GAMES are almost OVER.??

Id have to guess that most of Canadians stand with America! They want to join as the 51st state!

And just a reminder for everybody. The United States guaranteed Ukrainian independence after it split with Russia. I guess America is no longer a reliable partner. In the land of the shithead the biggest asshole is king. No morals, no scruples, no humanity, but all American. Trump hates people who have Courage, Honor, and Integrity. Things he will never have.

Where has this guy been all along? Why does he choose to become the kind of leader we needed on the way out? I guess existential threats bring out the grit in people.

I dont get it why the Americans think that we should even have to spend as much as they do on military...the whole world literally despises them and is actively trying to think of a way to attack them, but it is a much different story when it comes to Canada. Im pretty sure 911 was an attack on United States, an event that Canada did not have to involve itself with, but guess what? We did. We lost our own brave countrymen and women in order to come to the aid of the United States. Maybe the next time they want help they should look elsewhere. We were also there fighting in world war 2 way before the Americans decided to show up as well.

Guess who is happy US, Canada trade war, Russia But US doesn’t know that Putin is nobody’s friend. He will stab US in its back wait and watch.\nCanada will stand strong, united always ❤??

Let me guess the orange clown's reponse....\n\nCanada started the tariff war.\nTrudeau is a dictator.\nHe isn't flying the US flag behind him.\nHis socks have not been ironed.\nOh...and he didn't say thank you.\n\nCanada loves Americans BUT hates the orange clown.

Anyone that believes this idiot and any other idiot are not part of directed and pre planned agenda is a bigger idiot than this COVID clown and proof….oh wait it’s CNN and I should have guessed any comments here in proud support are just the same covid mass of clowns that ran around wearing masks screaming get vaccinated stay 2 metres away and stop those truckers…clown world again in full effect

So be it, guess who is the new enemy?

Well... Last administration that you liked a lot screw us bad, while lying thru their teeth that our economy is strong. I don't care anymore. Screw you. You're a pathological liar as well, so bring it on tuff guy. We'll see I guess

Cant buy the dip? Then make the dip I guess... ?

And the Crap Show begins.. The American People will suffer heavily from the influence of other countries which will weaken America's economy. Thanks MAGA votes, who believe your current President in the matter of less than 50 days in office America is doing marvelous (the best it has ever been and the best you have ever seen). Guess Kamala wasn't lying after all..

Everyone fighting over Tariffs and im sitting in Las Vegas waiting for them to increase the W2-G limit from $1200 to $5000. I guess we all have real problems ?

O NO!!!!! I guess we wont be buying their maple syrup or horrible beer without paying more. Oh the humanity.

I guess ol' stumpy has screwed us.

Everyone in the comments here are extremely gullible. I guess that's why they're leftists!

I guess the US no longer needs to protect Canada. Hey Treadaue, you apparently don't understand what fair trade is.\nCanada will lose a lot more than the US will.

As a Canadian, Trudeau is an unserious loser who has no problem preventing key infrastructure projects like pipelines and refineries that would have made us more independent, and taxing us to live through carbon tax. All this is silly performative nonsense geared towards cementing a legacy and will cause more pain to Canadians. If his intellect is so chanllenged it can't go two steps ahead and realize our economy will be crushed and we'll have to capitulate before the US, well I guess that explains the last ten years. He should be tried for treason.

Canadian here. I agree with what our Prime Minister said except the part about Donald being a very smart guy. I guess he felt it necessary to say that to assuage DJT's huge ego.

Well guess what baby!!!!!!!! AMERICA IS BACK!!!!!! BUE BYE EUROPE!!!!! BYE BYE CANADA!!!

I guess Canada forgot what this guy did to your truckers.

Every leader is playing into trumps hands!! People everywhere do not understand narcissistic personality disorder. By every leader, media reports talking about him phoning him pleading with him is all fuel!!!!This also tells his narcissism everyone is under control!! This makes him feel powerful! Society really needs to learn about narcissists. This situation calls for leaders to ignore him do not call him media needs to drop stories!! But society has been so heavily influenced by narcissism it just can’t let go of the profits this whole shit show is going to create. Oh and by the way all these politicians are narcissists as well and now this has threatened their control. And guess who gets to go along for the ride and the chaos they create.

I didn't agree with the tariff to begin with. Guess who's gonna end up footing the bill?

America is lost to fascism. Who would have thought that two years ago. Guess the turkeys went and voted for Thanksgiving.....

Guess they were sending fentanyl

My guess is that they want Russia to turn against China, good luck with that.

Hey dumbasses who voted for Trump: The Wall St Journal estimates these tariffs will increase the cost of your next pickup truck by $9k ! But hey, I guess that's a small price to pay for your improved relationship with Vladimir Putin. Who are you people ?!

Fired Ex Fed workers will take their depression to bad Ftnyl drugs...guess thats on you Donald

So I guess it is only a trade war when the US demands reciprocal tariffs? It seems like injustice to be put on an even playing field when you have not been being held to the same standards. Canada, Mexico and most other countries have had tariffs on the goods they send to the US for decades; why all of the complaints now? Isn’t it fair that the US charge tariffs if Canada and Mexico charge tariffs? Yes, it is. What the hell is Trudeau even flapping his gums about? Perhaps all aid should be taken from Canada and Mexico for being ungrateful. You ever heard of the North American Union? It’s a thing. Look it up. You will probably have the Amero in your wallet before long.

Trudeau and the country Canada are also been gifted and lied to by Donald Trump all the wonderful things that he said that he and Donald did together we’re all self-serving for Donald. He never has any intention to keeping allies happy that chainsaw that they broke out on the world stage is coming for everybody. But guess what we’re not gonna stand for it. They thought they were pandering this to a bunch of sleeping idiots but we’re awake and we have been awake. What a decent and humanitarian president going to figure out how he can help Canadian businesses whether this storm while Americans are left in the dust with their cabinet of curiosities screwing them over with no way to survive. I can already hear Trump’s read to the media. Canada has not done enough on the final on fentanyl they haven’t done enough. I told them they had to do XYNZ and they haven’t done enough. He’ll lie to everybody all over again, like every day of his life, the biggest liar.

I guess it's because of a deficit. Canada should have tried to do its homework and taken the initiative to balance it.

BTW, Zelenskyy is Giving in to PRESIDENT TRUMPS DEMANDS …, SOoooooooo I guess PRESIDENT TRUMPS Tactics worked. NOW YOU LOOK LIKE A WEAK DUMBASS for saying what you said, robertedward7023

I guess Trump is doing something he wants to invade Canada

Sorry, but now it is clear that Trump is not played by Putin, he is Putin's agent. He was talking about the danger from inside. He was mocking all Americans, because he is the danger. Vance tried this with Europe in Munich. Guess what, Europeans looked at him as he was drunk.

We know why HE is doing this. He is pushing an imperialistic agenda, so he can be like those he admires. He's hoping that Canada will bend at the knee and give in so that he can claim Canada as a 51st state. But guess what? That won't happen. He's just doing himself and his country harm. He doesn't care about you, or me, or us as two countries that have always worked together. But we are setting up border security to keep American drugs, and weapons, and illegal migrants from coming into Canada. We're going to have to survive by reverting our trade to elsewhere, to depend on ourselves, to boycott U.S. products. We may be nice, but we are also tough. We love our society, our democracy, and our benefits. We won't give that up. Growing up, I lived in South Western Ontario, I used to go back and forth from Canada to the U.S. with no issues. Now, I'm sad to say, I won't ever be going to the U.S. again. Let's all hope for a brighter future for both countries.

I am a Trinbagonian?? all the way in the Caribbean and I stand with Canada❤But guess what,the American people voted for that?Then again,Biden or Kamala Harris wasn't a better pick either?

Donald want´s to join BRICS - I guess.

Trudeau and the country Canada are also been grifted and lied to by Donald Trump all the wonderful things that he said that he and Donald did together we’re all self-serving for Donald. He never has any intention to keeping allies happy that chainsaw that they broke out on the world stage is coming for everybody. But guess what we’re not gonna stand for it. They thought they were pandering this to a bunch of sleeping idiots but we’re awake and we have been awake.

Has everyone forgot that during Trumps first term HE signed the biggest and best trade deal that anyone’s ever seen ( in his words ) with Mexico and Canada? He sat right in front of cameras and did it , and as usual showed off his fantastic signature. THAT trade deal was NEVER changed, even thru the last 4 years administration. But all of a sudden Trump walks in mouthing about it, blaming everyone else for it, and ready to change things? Why? What’s the issue? Let me guess… does he not remember doing that either?

Guess who can't read?!!

I thought he stepped down ??? i guess not

Like a chihuahua barking at a pit bull. Kind of funny to watch. The US is 40% of Canada’s GDP. They are 2.7% of ours. Guess who this hurts more.

As a Canadian, I am not a big fan of Trudeau but I must say this was a good speech. Too bad Donald doesn’t care. BTW Maker’s Mark is one of my favorite brands. I guess I will have to quit it at least for a while. ?
