I'm an American, didn't vote for Trump, and I stand with Canada.

I live in America and I can tell you that I did not vote for the orange Oompa Loompa! Trump is a liar, a thief, a felon, a con man, a narcissist, a dictator wannabe, a traitor to the US, an insurrectionist, a sore loser, asexual, predator, and a POS! Please go after trump! I stand with Canada, Mexico and the rest of our allies! Nobody should ever trust anything out of that moron’s mouth! A narcissist will always do the opposite of what you tell them to do

I am so ashamed of our country. Trump has ruined us as a strong country. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, and Mexico.

Stand strong Canada against Trumps perfidy

I don’t like Trudeau. I don’t like the way his country is suffering under his rule - by that I mean the poverty the Canadians are living in whilst he takes expensive vacations and eats 5 star food - and I agree more with the opposition. I also don’t like the black face joke he pulled years ago. But in this instance, against the trump administration, I fully support and agree with what he is saying. This is the stupidest trade war in history. This is going to screw up all countries involved. Stand for democracy!

As an American I too stand with Canada. Those maga dictator in chief will destroy America just to appease his daddy Putin. Phuck tRump and Putin

Filipino here, fuck Trump stand for Canada, Mexico and Ukraine.

Canadian here. We helped America in 1980 by saving American diplomatic staff from captivity in Tehran. We suffered the loss of Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan. This is how we are paid back. The Trump Regime won a election with just 1.7% of the vote. Trump is becoming enemy number 1 in the free world. Stand up Americans against this horrible MEGA regime before your freedoms and liberty disappear.

Good for you, Trudeau! Trump despises the vast majority of Americans and happily destroys our lives. Thank you for standing up to his cruelty and stupidity. Canadians are lucky to have you and your intelligent cohort fighting against our monstrous president. And many of us truly admire you & your partners.

American here, so proud of Prime Minister Trudeau's leadership. Trump's tariffs serve no purpose other than being a jerk. Stay strong Canada, stand up to this bully.

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

This man is not stupid he’s playing The people acting as if he’s tough and trump is inlove with Russia cause that’s all they have to stand on . And if Canada keeps on you will lose this trade war, we are 70% of your GDP !!

PM Trudeau, your stand against this Trump Tariff, is commendable, don’t give in to T “QUID PRO QUO” personal agenda!

As a american I stand with you Canada I didn't vote for this thug in the whiteshouse he a plague. Trump needs to be impeached.

It takes a lot to piss off a country like Canada, which is saying something. I don't fault the Canadian and Mexican governments for standing up for their people. It's just a damn shame that regular Canadians, Americans, and Mexicans will pay the price of the trade war started by President Trump. Why we're taking aim at our ally nations and not putting tariffs on Russian goods says it all.

America here: I love Canada. Trump is demonic and we want him, vance, musk impeached. We want Republicans voted out. I stand with President Zelensky and all the countries that love and support him. I voted for VP Kamala Harris and I hope she will be inaugurated once Trump is removed.

Trump is going to go onstage tonight and lie about why the tariffs on Canada. We have done nothing to deserve this. One percent of fentanyl and one percent of illegal immigrants come from Canada into the USA. We give America a huge deal on oil. Trump lies about this to justify the tariffs. We did act on our border not just because trump demanded it but because it needed to be done. Still the tariffs came. He is a bully and a disgusting human being and I am sad that our friendship with the USA is over. He is putting Americas at risk and screwing his own farmers. We will not stand for this

Your dumba$$ leader Trump..fu*king it for us working people that run this place....\n\nNative Pride and I stand with you Canada n UK and Europe

As a Canadian, I stand with all non-Trump Americans, Mexico, Europe and Ukraine. \n\nThank you Mr. Prime Minister!\n\n?? Proud! ?? Strong!

This American stands with Canada and Ukraine and never voted for Trump ever.

I am Ukrainian from Kyiv. Standing with Canada and American people who don't support Trump's policies. Thank you a loooot for supporting us! Its mean a lot for us! Unfortunatly looks like Trump find a new friend - putin(( ?

Please know that the vast majority of us in the USA do not want this trade war. Canada is our neighbor and friend. This will not stand. I don’t know how or when but Trump will be removed from office and our memories soon. Democracy will prevail over evil!

I support this more than Trump, and I'm sure the majority of Americans agree at this point.\n\nI can't stand the hypocrisy on immigration though. Canada has us as a buffer from a country desperate to get in, and they are still allowed to have very secure borders without getting flack.\n\nWhen America just doesn't want the faucet of immigration on full blast, we are the bad guys.\n\nThe Fentanyl excuse is absurd when it comes to Canada and the tariffs. It's a legitimate concern from the southern border. The northern border has never been an issue...

Trump election campaign he promised american people about tariff 100% he win \nThis leader stand with Ukraine our tax payer money never take any step up with or talk with him \nNow crying he is good actor proving again. He not worried because already filled his pocket

If Americans don't stand up now and get rid of trump there will be no going back from trumps damage done.

It’s very comforting to see these leaders stand up to Trump. Ty ?

So nice to hear a national leader speak so eloquently and coherently. He did not use any bullying or condescending words. Standing for Canada and loving America. Trump is for Putin instead of America's friends. This is really sad. Wake up America! What has happened to us?

Trudeau, one of the most woke leaders ever that lacks the COMMONSENSE Trump came in to restore. He needs to be impeached for his incompetence. I stand fully with Trump

I stand for the citizens of Canada, but this man has RUINED your country…Trump is right! Canada has benefited from the US financially while we have payed the brunt of most of the costs.

Trump is not intelligent but a dumb a..! Love Canada ? We support you and stand firm…Respect from Oregon!

Can hardly wait until Canada bankrupts the USA. Cut all trade with a war mongering nation, Canadians stand strong and free, we will prevail against the likes of Trump, Vance and musk who was never elected to office. Ontario just canceled starlinks, we don’t buy American products, the best thing is to shut our borders to American citizens and trade period. Just wait and see USA what we do!

It's unbelievable, but.. not really coming from the Orange guy, We love our Canadian brothers and sisters, im a disabled Vet, i stand with Canada and Ukraine, most the people of the USA do not stand with Trump, or his cabinet, in his delusional thinking about fentanyl it's a made-up lie it's propaganda seriously from the northern border and not the southern border there's no drugs coming through our Northern friends he's nitpicking at anything to start this trade war

Greetings from Sydney, Australia ?? \n\nAustralia stands with our Canadian cousins against this “dumb” trade war.\n\nLet us hope Trump comes to his senses and ends it.

I voted against trump three times. I can’t believe the total abdication of the Republican Congress, the total corruption of the courts, and the total brainwashing of the conservative voters who have fallen into the trump cult. Real Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine. And we understand that trump is the biggest threat to American liberty since King George III.

Trump is not reasonable. Thanks for standing up to that idiot

This is insane! America stands with our allies. ALWAYS. I cannot believe this crap is happening! TRUMP NEEDS TO LEAVE THE WHITE HOUSE! Americans do not want this and do not agree with this dame PRESIDENT! GOD HELP US!

I love the people of Canada ??. I looked forward to spending my vacation there. Stay strong ?. Trump is a bully that needs to be impeached and jailed. He is a criminal, 34 count convicted criminal. We, the people, did not vote for shitty ass Trump. Maga voted for and stole votes to ensure that Trump won. We, the people of America, stand with you. We know that Canada has no choice but to strike back at Trump. He must be stopped now !

best speech he's ever done.....full marks for standing up to Trump in a strong way.

U.S. here....first, I and most Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine. Second, yes tRUMP made a dumb mistake. But everyone must realize that he really isn't very smart. His own cabinet members from his first term have said so. He doesn't understand things and he doesn't read. I feel pretty sure that his daddy paid for him to get into business school and paid for his degree, just as he paid a doctor to say he had bone spurs. He just isn't very bright. I think his business failings show the same thing. Whatever Canada and Mexico feel they have to do to stand up to this dictator wanna-be, so be it. I hope the MAGAt supporters here get a hard wake up call....I can't have sympathy for them.

I stand with the World, I stand with the people of Canada, Mexico, China, Russia, kind people, helpless people who have no choice but to live in a country of dictatorship. I stand with Humanity ❤ I don't support Trump

Those of us who think Trump is a whack job, stand with Canada and apologize to the Canadian people

Great speech, at last a Leader standing up to trump and his cronies. Canada needs you so a shame you are not continuing. As a born Brit but now an Aussie my husband and I applaud you. The Democratic world needs to stand up to trump and musk. Canadians are tough and just know that many of us are with you in spirit and wherever we live are not buying US products either. Go Canada ?? and the Canadians ?

I stand with Canada. Mr. Trump is a traitorous poison working for all intent and purposes for Vladimir Putin and as such, he is a major threat to the national security to this country, Canada, Europe and the world. He and his criminal administration must be removed before they cause the collapse of the west.

Thank you Mr. President! Nothing but respect! You are a class act, a fine example of what a man with character and common sense should act like… Trump is very jealous because he’s such a toddler constantly throwing temper tantrum‘s, he has no respect for anyone not even himself. Most of us stand with Canada and agree with you… It’s unfortunate we have a common criminal sitting in our oval office… God help us all ????

President Trump and you need to work it all out. As far as blanket tariffs go, I do agree that your goods and services, including tariffs should be mutually broken down to create benefits for all. Part of my lineage is from Quebec, and here USA. We all need to help each other. Laser focus to arrest and put in prison all drug terrorists should be everyone's focus. The wars elsewhere are sidetracking the two of you from standing side by side with one another, as you mention you usually do. Two friends, two parallel united goals, yet I do agree, again, that you said an enemy would rather divide you two than to see you both Triumph over evil! So PM Trudeau, get on the phone with President Donald, and the two of you tackle it out, include a .PPT write-up with solutions that both of you know is good overall, both instant, immediate and longer term. May God's Holy Hands be upon you and surround you, with the love of my Savior, Christ Jesus! Thank you! I love you all.

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

Canadian Trucker here and I stand with Donald J Trump. Canadians hate Trud and he’s already stepped down this man is soon to be irrelevant.

Calm down, Canada. Trudeau trying to stand up to Trump is hilarious

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
