Well trump just created a lot of new criminals. Because I'm gonna have to break bad just to feed my family. So if you got anything of value lock it up because my rent is coming due.

1/2: Myself and the saner half of the US that read, understood, and voted against Proj 2025 understands why they need to levy retaliatory tariffs especially as a Michigander who's lived less than 4 hours from Canada all her life, who has family in Quebec and Ontario, and is a job-seeking policy professional and international trade nerd who now cannot in good faith seek a job in the federal government. We have been looking and still do look to Canada as a model quite a bit and love Canada and Canadians to pieces. We Michiganders especially in the central and eastern UP and Detroit and Ann Arbor area are friends, coworkers, and family of Canadians. Some are even dual citizens. It is sad that it's come to this. \n\n2/2: I still personally just can't wrap my head around how a trade deal Trump put together himself and called the best (the USMCA in question) is all of a sudden so bad. Logic doesn't work with these types of people... I really want **someone!!** to ask him/ admin officials about the USMCA **to their face** and see what they say because I am so upset by this nonsensical and corrupt administration.

Trump is so clearly compromised to Russia and Putin. His every action is to destroy America and to aid Putin. American voters disgraced themselves and their country by voting for a corrupt, stupid, rapist and wannabe dictator. I feel bad for Ukraine and Europe that Trump is aiding Russia over supporting our best allies.

Sending respect from the UK. It must hurt so bad for you all right now.

Sorry, Canada. I didn’t vote for him. I feel bad for all of us who saw this train wreck coming.

Anerica will not be impacted. We have all we need. I feel bad for Canada. I hope we can work it out. We oil wood electricity.

“So because the tariffs are so bad for us we’re going tu put you tariff “ \n????

Too bad Canada has such a wimpy socialist leader.

They're playing good cop bad cop. Who's the victim? Both people

This isn't about fentanyl or the borders it's about Trumps desire to make money off tariffs so he can pay for tax cuts to his billionaire ass kissers while the first lady Musk is stealing money from government offices. Trump is not a smart man. Recently he said this was a bad agreement and who the hell signed this speaking about the last trade agreement with Canada and Mexico. Well it was you Dumb Donald. Nothing more than a child bully.\n This idiot thinks Zelensky is a dictator but refuses to call Putin a dictator WTF . He says Ukraine started the war, what a retarded scumbag. Good luck the next 4 years UST, United States of Trump.

Hey, this guy ain’t so bad.\nMaybe he should be US President

Dear Mr. Trudeau. Although your presentation is articulate and to the point, I feel that you’re using too many words for the average MAGA American to comprehend. Here’s a sample; tariff bad, you pay too much for stuff bought at Walmart.

Listen up you do not disrespect the oval office or our president. You are an idiot if you are trying to get. President Trump. Bad side. Nooooooo that’s wrong. You will pay…zzzz

As an American, i hope that the world does react to the United States as Canada has. And even worse. I hope that things for us get as bad as it gets because anything less will be ignored or brushed off as anyone elses fault. I want Americans to really understand what a horrible mistake they made in Donald. But my hopes or not, this seems very likely to be the case anyway.

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

well the east feels what alberta felt in the 80s we lose everthing natioal energy program from a treudeu now its the east will feel this pain from bad discions by a treudeu

Trumpy poked the moose bad idea donnie

Sick Basterd, just wants free money, He is Going to Make it worse for Canada, Just like Ford. No Clue Politicians Can Not Do the Job they are just Takers, Not Makers!\nJustin Sit the F down, You don't run anything. stepped down Month ago, But wont Go! You Canada have a Problem, Letting the Political Child Play Running the Country. Bad as U Know.

Felon Trump's policy failed with our neighbor countries. Disgusting and distressing. Lot of workers will be laid off and it will effect to our economy very badly.

How about CNN become American first \nHe stepped away from prime minister \nIt has been very bad before

I thought Trudeau was stepping down? O well all the low iq cux will still clap like seals bc he said orange man bad

Trump is causing destruction of his own Country,a bad man evil in fact ?

Wait so if tariffs are so bad for the country imposing them and that trump is so dumb to impose tariffs why would they retaliate with tariffs if there so bad for the country imposing them? It makes no sense. If trump is wrong for imposing tariffs why respond with your own?

We are ready for this fight Canada and Germany!!!bring it on!! Get ready to go hungry and get ready for your taxes to go up without our military!! Bad move Canada we are tired of your half ass support if that’s what you want to call it!! WE DONT NEED YOUR COUNTRY BUT YOU CERTAINLY NEED US!!

Trudea is the reason for these tariffs, lose trudeau and his carbon tax and your cost of living will reduce by 40% . Trudea don't care, he makes money no matter how much he puts canada in the red! He is purposely destroying Canada's economy for his corporate buddies to cash in as a monopoly, like the grocery chains and green companies etc. Trudeau is committed to putting canada in a fire sale for the world. We.f. agenda bail out at Canadians expense and freedoms. Trudeau is nothing but a actor a bad one at that!

Trump and JD Vance are bad politicians!. No one can trust America nowadays. The USA betrayed the South of VN, Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Ukraine. The Republic of Taiwan will be the next victim to trust America!

Well, I feel like there's a pretty good chance mine and thousands of other jobs will hit Ontario hard when they move south of the border. Ontario is about to be hurting really, really bad as Trump comes for all our auto manufacturing jobs.

Trump is moving the USA to the sidelines, siding with the dictator Putin and will be quite wrong with this policy. Too bad. I liked the world order. But if you let the Russians act like this and blackmail a European country, you have to be punished for it.

Canada is already owned by USA. All our major businesses are American owned. We even sold our Fighters Jets, oil, lumber and natural resources for pennies. The Canadian people need tax cuts. The native Canadians live without clean water in Reserves all across northern Canada in third world conditioms. All the goverment projects go to mafia groups who run the construction industry and tied to federal governments. Who is the bad guy? I dont know...but we the peasants pay for it while they steal and shift it to us.

perhaps Canada could extend its education system to the USA, and avoid another trump type meathead being elected by confused voters who are easily fooled by a bad actor/ conman.

?Trudeau is a bad joke and worse, a liar. Trump demands secure borders to protect our citizens. Trump is establishing RECIPROCAL tariffs to improve our economy in a fair and just manner. Trudeau says Canada is “polite,” but the hockey game between us proved otherwise. Canada is a neighbor we can live without. \nHopefully Canada will return to sanity, common sense and decency under new leadership and we can resume previously held good relations with our Northern neighbors.

It's ONLY bad if you have money to buy things! If you don't have money the tariffs can be 10000%+ won't change a damn thing for me.....I'm already poor! Lol

As an American I stand with Canada. Don't let Trump dictate what Canada does, stick it to his ass. He won't be president forever and I feel bad for our next president that person is going have alot to fix and put back in place.

Trumper Americans are too uneducated to understand the consequences of Trump’s tariff policy. Too bad. They will not know until they start to pay double for the same groceries that they used to get.

Bad strategy to use facts on us Americans JT… we don’t believe in those anymore

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. ?

Trudeau destroyed Canada with carbon taxes and bad liberal policies. Trudeau is a spoiled rich brat dictator. \nNow he is using trump as a smoke screen.

What a bad intro. Distracted and focusing on Russia! How’s that a good way to start!!!

A dumb thing to do he's done a lot of stupid things that's mine the carbon tax to fuel tax house tax food tax Trudeau you've done a lot of bad things to Canadians

It takes a bad guy to make the sacrifice for the better of good. Thank you for your silent work !

Bad for Canada. Bad for America. Bad for the world. The question is whether the majority of MAGAs abandon Trump after a recession begins because of Trump's policies. I'm not sure. Maybe? For sure, they'll try to blame Biden. And some just want Trump to fight the culture war and are willing to accept the consequences of an economic downturn so long as trans people are restricted on the bathroom they can use. Some are rich enough that they wouldn't be affected by a recession. As if world events weren't already volatile enough.

You thought homeless was bad. It’s gonna get horribly worse.

You better have someone keeping on him and Elon because when things get bad they are going to try and go across the ocean with the millions they are going to steal from the hard working people

Canada MAY be our friends but Trudeau is leading them down a bad path. We don’t need ANY of your products. We will produce our own or do without before being scammed or paying up front for goods to ‘be rendered,.Let them rot on the docks or in the fields. Maybe China will buy them at half price

Didn't this guy stepped down just recently, what's taking so long?.... Also, who wrote his speech?..... Not bad. On the main subject I want to say, where are the billionaires and the famous millionaire's thoughts on this matter. People need to stop buying/consuming sh*t from the rich

We all going to feel the impact for having a bad government ?

Sir, I appreciate it, but you ain't gotta explain or apologize that you didn't want this. Our US government has lost its mind. What's worse, all the people that voted for that lunatic were brain washed into thinking this mess is good. I can't feel bad for the ones that are already suffering from the consequences. I always wondered how people fall for cult leaders. I know trump ain't a cult leader cuz he ain't that smart. He's a pedo throwing hissy fits and married to a porn chick, has a self-proclaimed couch screwer assistant, and he's leaning on the help of another idiot benefiting from government money, all the while imploding our government processes. This sucks.

This is highly dangerous to have a pathological liar in the White house, who badly wants to be somebody and respected but don't have it in him.

Why is Trump making America look bad. We are screwed

Bad to guests, bad to neighbors
