As a Canadian I can tell you all that we’re livid. The relationship between our two nations will never be the same.\n\n27% of Canadians now view America as an enemy and threat to our security, not an ally.

IT HAS STARTED...NOW ALL THESE NATION WILL RETALIATE HARD...WAIT FOR THE EUROPEANS TO HIT THE US ECONOMY LIKE NO COUNTRY WILL BE ABLE TO

Yes ask yourselves what is this really about \nIsolating the nation from our allies is never a good idea

Nice going America. Have your egg prices gone down? Do you have a new national healthcare plan that blows the other one away? Do you consider this as more “owning the libs” and is it worth suffering more for the benefit of the rich? What a clown show.

I stand with Canada, love from England. America has never been so alone, you voted in a traitor to democracy, and you have sold out your national pride to the USSR. \nThe new North Korea of the western world.

I have so much respect for how the Canadians have stepped up for their democracy and their core values as a nation! They have done so with so much respect and passion, and it has given me hope that we will get through this. Much love from Scotland, we stand with you! ??????? ????

I used to be a huge fan of America. I truly believed it was the world’s policeman, the guiding force for justice and freedom. I looked up to the country, admiring its strength, its values, and the way it stood for what was right. I even wished my own country could be more like that. \n\nBut America is no longer what it once was. It’s heartbreaking to see how a once-free and hopeful nation has transformed into something so divided, hostile, and unpredictable. A country that once stood by its friends now turns its back on them. A nation that once fought for unity now thrives on division and conflict. \n\nThere are still many good people in America, and the country is not beyond hope. But deep down, every American must realize—this is not the right path. This is not who you are meant to be. \n\nWake up before it’s too late.

What an excellent and intelligent speech.... alas addressing a USA nation with a disproportionately high proportion of morons, it would seem?!

Compare this speech to Trump's briefings. You can tell who is a true nation leader.

Trump is slowly going to destabilise the USA deliberately in order to bring on a civil war & uprising so that he can involve the military to help him control the country by force. Mark my words that's his grand plan at home, he wants total control. Don't let him win if this happens. He wants an authetarian state similar to Russia, him & Musk, vance. Then he will try and take Greenland or even Canada, he will try to wind his supporters up into a frenzied in some way or form to basically pick a fight. With a military style rule over the USA he will then start to invade his neighbours or any other mineral rich nation. This is the worst possibility God bless it never materialises.

As a Canadian my personal politics may not always be in line with other citizens of the world, however I can respectfully agree to disagree, allowing more dialogue and discussion to continue in order to reach an agreeable compromise to find the best winning formula for all concerned. \nI have watched and listened to many American politicians from John F Kennedy to Joe Bidden, to leaders like Marin Luther King, Malcolm X, Bernie Saunders, all have something in common, respect, decorum, world knowledge, integrity, truth, honesty, honour, and heart. \nStrength is when you are able to reach out to lift someone up not to knock them down. Even the greatest professional boxers know the difference of being humble and kind when there advisory is in trouble. \nFor the first time in the history of your country you have a bully, narcissist and pathological liar, who is vulgar and unpolished as a man, father and as the President of your nation.\nI have seen our own Canadian leaders, make mistakes, stumble and fail, however they displayed grace and admitted to their shortcomings.\nI have never seen a world leader be obsessed with things such as plastic straws, pennies, flushing toilets, Hannibal Lecter, Arnold Palmer's manhood, a leader who's completely obsessed with selling souvenir and bubbles while his citizens are homeless, hungry, jobless, with runaway inflation so that something as simple as a dozen eggs are now a luxury item. \n\nYou have a president who spends millions of dollars so that he can play golf at one of his own properties, meanwhile his country is neglected. \nA brief look at his past record the pandemic under his watchful eye would have you drink bleach as a cure as many died and billionaires increased their combined wealth by trillions of dollars while the middle class and poor suffered. \nThe opioid crisis was settled under his watch which let Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family avoid jail time for committing the death and destruction of millions of lives in America. Yet Donald Trump is obsessed with the drug cartels in other countries yet he overlooks those terrorist in his own country. Is it because they are billionaires and potential cronies of his?\nRather than be completely obsessed with tariffs and creating the next disaster with his Trump Gaza Holocaust Resort, Your leader could be looking at fixing the country's infrastructure of roads, brides, tunnels, ensuring a healthy supply of drinking water, rail, housing for the homeless, affordable health care, affordable education, etc.\n\nDonald Trump is surrounded by his clowns is not just making a mockery of your country but is leading you into a very dark hole. \nThe shame and humiliation that Donald Trump has brought to your country since his inauguration will take years to correct if he is stopped now. If you the American people wait four years, WW Three will be here and it will take centuries to recover. \nTHE FUTURE IS NOW, NOT IN FOUR YEARS. AS AMERICANS YOU MUST BE WILLING TO ENSURE A TOMORROW FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.... UNDER THE CURRENT REGIME YOU ARE HEADED TO A DEAD END.

Now the SHEEPLE will not focus on real issues of declining Infrastruture, Healthcare, Housing crisis, increasing govt. survillance, shrinking individual freedoms, rising inflation, declining standard of living, sky rocketting debt & credit card crisis, affordability crisis, joblessness, high unemployment rates, increasing govt deficiet (national debt) and the list goes on.. BUTpeople will bebrain washed to suffer & sacrifice more for this fake conflict between the ruling class on the two sides of the order and across the pond.

Everyone needs to remember that Canada and Mexico are both Americans to. Different countries, but the same continent. And oh...I don't believe that the United States electected the person that the thought they did. If you cannot defeat a nation that is far more powerful than your own nation, how will you accomplish it then. The country has been compromised.

You can be nice on both sides, say nice things all day long. But when actions says other wise then it becomes a problem with any nation that promises peace, happy days, smiles and sunshine. If any nation is going to do what they say then work together as a world not a different solar system.

Absolutely brilliant. Governments of the world take note. This is how a nation should be managed. How much extra parliament and politicians do we need when this 1 man and his team can achieve such an honest an genuine connection to his people it puts all others to shame.

Gangsters currently rule USA, and no doubt USA will pay for electing bad leaders. The people need to do whatever worst earliest to prevent the fall of that great nation

Canada tried to appease Trump and pretended to take his lies seriously. You can't appease dictators and dictator-wannabes, ever. Don't boo our national anthem at hockey games please, but don't give Trump anything. Most Americans are on Canada's side.

Bravo. hope that my national governement in GER and my EU will show a similar reaction, keeping fingers crossed.

Americans obviously didn’t understand what tariffs are, didn’t get that it’s an import tax which they must pay on goods and products they buy from Canada, a tax which tRump collects from Americans and uses to pay for tax-cuts for the richest citizens. But one more thing Americans don’t get is that before this fateful day an unofficial boycott against ALL US goods has been growing since tRump insulted Canada’s Prime Minister and threatened Canada’s sovereignty—whereas Canada’s official countervails ( which only kicked-in today )only target certain US goods, not ALL of them like ordinary Canadians are doing in growing numbers right now—in fact, the imposition of tRump’s tariffs today has only made the unofficial boycott bigger and more organized. It’s heartening that so many nations have solicited Canada, offering alternative sources for common US exports to Canada —citrus fruits, pharmaceuticals, and other manufactures, to name a few.\n\nI don’t think Canadians even realize how big this unofficial boycott is getting because it’s growing so fast. I’ve never seen a surge in Canadian patriotism like this. Never in my seven decades —which includes the two Referenda on Quebec separation. And there’s a federal election approaching when all partisans will be one-upping each other in the patriotism department—which manifests in more boycotts of US goods and hospitality services.\n\n Americans should know that the unofficial boycott is more harmful to US exporters than the official targeted countervails because it features immediate and longterm diminishment of Canadian purchases of US goods—all retailers know it’s very hard to recover lost customers once they’ve found alternatives (and the added patriotic effect only makes it worse). Included is diminishment of Canadian visits to the USA. Indeed, the internet is replete with testimonies of Canadian”snow birds” not only forgoing their annual sojourn in the Florida or Arizona sunshine but also of selling their properties there with the parting shot, “I will never vacation in the US again!” Already Mexico has seen its visits from Canadians (who have had a modest presence in Mexico for years) surge to unprecedented levels. I know from much-welcomed temp Mexican construction workers in BC (where I live) that they view Canadians completely differently from our mutual US neighbours—and now that affection is growing like never before. \n\nI’m continually amazed at how uninformed Americans are about tariffs—and misinformed by tRump and his goofy, preposterous, and ridiculous fantasy of world-domination. When tRump uses the lame excuse to implement emergency powers —that Canada is “allowing” (as Vance puts it) fentanyl to “pour into the USA”—it’s tantamount to saying Ukraine started the war with Russia. The man is a tendentious liar and narcissistic megalomaniac. \n\nI have faith that the great nation of the USA will reject tRump’s crazy policies—we all just have to hang on and let the needless suffering for both our nations (and the world with regard strategic alliances) play out until he either relents, is swamped in legal repercussions, is impeached, or otherwise removed from office!\n\nGood luck my American and Ukrainian friends!

Canada is also our closest leech. By all rights you shouldnt even be an independent country. You're the second biggest country in the world, you have the 28th largest military. Your entire population is barely over that of california. You're economy is borderline pathetic, and your government is even worse. Kick this Trudeau clown to the curb and get a better PM. As far as im concerned any free nation that limits speech and rights the way canada does is simply not free. We would gladly take everyone west of Winnipeg and accept you into the USA. But Quebec and Ontario can piss right off.

According to Ritter Ukraine has already signed over rights to rare earth to UK. There was an article in a Czech newspaper talking about this leak. \nIs this why Starmer won't stop. \nWell some analyst believe UK is on the precipice of collapse. I agree.\nI believe the #1 priority of Trump is the US dollar and BRICS competition.\nUS plan to address $34 Trillion debt is to digitize the countries assets. Ex. Anwar, national parks, Infrastructure etc. This is the reason for the new land grab (aka resources grab) . The ones with the resources rule. China has known this for at least 20 years \nThink of the U.S. valuated as a investment ie. look at their balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. \nSimple valuation assets-liabilities=equity\nTaking this type of valuation $34 Trillion debt is peanuts.\nNow apply similar analysis to England.\nNo assets , little industry (aka income) or cash flow. \nI know many want a true multipolar world but I think it will be more spheres of influence dominated by China, US, Russia. The supper powers are positioning for the resources. The world has changed. \nI think the US Democrats will organize to harass Trump and his initiatives in an attempt to take back Congress in the midterms. Their only option. Going to get very nasty. (Harris poll from last weekend Trump favorability 58%)\nNow for Trump's tariffs . They are working already. Several tech companies have announced new factory plans for US. It all relates to Corporate Income taxes. It's about transfer pricing where they pay no Corporate income taxes in US.\nTransfer pricing For example:\nApple iPhone manufacture an iPhone in China for $300. They sell it to an Apple subsidiary call it Apple international located in a low tax or no tax domicile for $300. So No income tax. Say they sell it to Apple USA for $700 . No taxes owed by Apple international . Apple USA sells it in US for $700. Bought it for $700 = no taxes owed. BUT APPLE CLEARED $400 CASH. \nThat's with no tariffs. Now with 20% tariffs on China , the iPhone full import price $700 (sale price). is taxed(tariffs) x 20% = $140. Trump wants 20% corporate rate extended and ultimate 15% corporate rate. Most all the overseas US mfg might come home to moma. \nI would advise Trump to selectively wave tariffs on some items like lumber from Canada and food from mexico. As for oil from Canada I think Trump will let Chevron develop and buy heavy oil from Venezuela. If not might have to wave/reduce tariffs on Canadian diluted bitumen oil.

Another true leader showing how sick, sad, and pathetic the Republican Party and American so-called 'conservatives' are. Tump is the worst president, maybe the worst national leader in modern history. Thank god other nations have not succumbed to the Putin loving sickness of the Republican Party.

Trump is planning to start cutting down our national forests to make up for Canadian lumber and not nearly enough people are talking about the damage he wants to do to our national parks

I am an American, but my Ancestors were French Canadians who immigrated to Montpelier, Vermont at the turn of the 20th century. Your support in wanting the best for both of our countries makes me so proud of my roots. Charlie Angus as well as Justin Trudeau have integrity and are willing and able to fight for what is right. Please know you are a highly respected nation by most of the people in this country. I have always been so proud of my country, but am now so embarrassed and deeply troubled. Please pray for your neighbors and the democracy of our Republic. I am related to Louis Cyr, Canadian Strongman. Don't give up on us. God be with both of our nations!

Dear CNN, \n The last time Trump went to Ruzzia to 'Negotiate' anything, he curiously left behind his Translation Team, his National Security Team, AND his Intelligence Team and walked into a room with Putin, (who had ALL those things with him). This resulted in D.J. getting pumped for info for around three hours. This 'Info' Putin has managed to use to great effect, as he entered into the Ukraine War, and now Donald wants to 'Negotiate' with Putin AGAIN on behalf of Ukraine?!? Trump doesn't even use the CIA for his geopolitical briefings, he actually uses 'Private Services' for his info, (at Taxpayer Expense) largely I'm sure, because anyone who is close to being Competent at what they do would 'KNOW' things, and would be correcting Trump, constantly, which he hates with a passion. On top of this there's Tulsi Gabbard who the Ruzzians themselves have publicly stated IS an Agent of theirs for the last Decade. It's for these reasons and more that I say D.J. is a Traitor to this Country for the love of money. \n How much more of an illustration does one require for a 'Worst Case' scenario?!? A 'Rogue Actor' taking control of the U.S. Government with full access to it's Nuclear Codes. It truly makes more sense to go Radio Silent with America, (for the time being at least) and co-ordinate with Mr.Zelenskyy as to how you will proceed. I would seriously be 'dragging my heels' on that Royal Invitation as well, as D.J. will completely misinterpret that to mean something entirely else! We in the U.S. are undergoing a COUP, plain and simple. No need to Soft Sell it going forward as Trump and Vance have knowingly delivered us to Ruzzia without so much as a single shot being fired. Thanks for the Post.

i stand with Canada and Ukraine. TO my fellow Americans... you have done this to us by electing a corrupt, criminal communist and unhinged man as president of our nation. You have destroyed us with this maggot infested political party that will only bring on WW3 and the lost respect of every nation on earth. I am ashamed to be an American.

in 2013, the United Nations set out a Universal Agenda called the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Right to Health, in this Agenda, which has to be met by 2030, Since 2013, we had the Climate Change hoax that was started by our king while he asked for all financial institution to dish out over $780 billion dollars worth 'green things' which are now going bankrupt, however, he convinced that the earth was going to combust, then we had the COVID, which killed many, so now that those schemes are over, we are slapped with another tax scheme called tariffs. Anyhow, the Agenda said that in order for us to enter 'THE NEW ERA' the natural resources that the Country produces are to be shared for all citizens to enjoy, NOT SHAREHOLDERS!!

As a German and a European i think the best bet of the free democratic Nations of the world is to ally against this. New Conferderations must be formed or old ones must be refomed. but clear as day is that, only together we can stop the immenent redrawing of the borders accruing worldwide as the Russian aggression and the allingment of the USA government with them, is proof to all Autocrats that now is the right time to Tackle such Ambitions. Im verry frightened about the future.

Canada’s Retaliation Against the Smoot-Hawley Tariff (1930)\nOne of the most immediate and severe retaliatory responses to the Smoot-Hawley Tariff came from Canada, which was heavily dependent on trade with the United States. Canada was the largest export market for U.S. goods at the time, and when the U.S. imposed high tariffs on Canadian imports, Canada responded with its own punitive tariffs on American products.\n\nBackground: U.S.-Canada Trade Before Smoot-Hawley\nIn 1929, about 75% of Canadian exports went to the U.S.\nCanada was also a major supplier of lumber, wheat, cattle, and minerals to American markets.\nThe two economies were deeply intertwined, and Canada had traditionally followed a low-tariff trade policy with the U.S.\nCanada’s Response: Retaliatory Tariffs (1930)\nPrime Minister R.B. Bennett responded to Smoot-Hawley by raising tariffs on American goods, specifically targeting products from the U.S. Midwest and industrial centers.\nCanada increased tariffs on over 16 U.S. goods, including:\nFarm machinery\nAutomobiles\nFruits and vegetables\nTextiles\nThese tariffs redirected Canadian trade away from the U.S. and toward Britain and other Commonwealth nations, under a new imperial preference system.\nEconomic Consequences\nFor the United States:\n❌ Sharp decline in U.S. exports to Canada\n\nU.S. exports to Canada dropped by 55% between 1929 and 1932.\nAmerican automobile and farm equipment industries suffered severe losses.\nMany Midwest farmers, who had relied on Canadian sales, went bankrupt.\n❌ Loss of a major trading partner\n\nCanada sought alternative suppliers in Britain, Australia, and other Commonwealth nations.\nThis permanently weakened U.S.-Canada economic ties, forcing the U.S. to reconsider its trade policies.\nFor Canada:\n✅ Diversification of Trade\n\nCanada strengthened trade ties with Britain and other Commonwealth countries.\nCanadian exports to Britain increased, helping Canada avoid complete economic collapse.\n❌ Short-term economic pain\n\nWhile Canada successfully retaliated, the tariffs raised prices for Canadian consumers.\nThe Canadian economy still suffered from the global depression, but it recovered faster than the U.S. by diversifying trade.\nLong-Term Impact\nPermanent Shift in Canadian Trade Policy\n\nCanada moved away from dependence on the U.S. and pursued closer economic ties with Britain.\nThis weakened U.S. economic influence in Canada for decades.\nRepeal of Smoot-Hawley and the Start of U.S. Trade Liberalization\n\nThe failure of Smoot-Hawley contributed to the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act (1934) under Franklin D. Roosevelt, which lowered tariffs and encouraged bilateral trade deals.\nU.S.-Canada trade eventually recovered, but the economic damage lasted for years.\nConclusion\nThe U.S. intended to protect its industries, but Smoot-Hawley backfired by provoking Canada’s retaliation. This case study highlights how tariffs can damage relationships with key trading partners, disrupt industries, and reduce exports, ultimately harming the economy.

We are all living in strange times! The bad guy (Putin) is defended like he’s the good guy and the victim (Zelensky) is criticized like he’s the aggressor. This is so weird and negative like an episode of the Twighlight Zone! I think I can understand how Trump is viewing things. Bill O’Reilly seems to know how Trump thinks. Nevertheless, things are upside down! USA voting at the UN with North Korea and Putin and Belarus and against the EU and UK and NATO alliance nations … against the victim Ukraine? This is unheard of! Yet this is so ironic because Leonid Brezhnev, who was the USSR leader, when Russia invaded the sovereign nation of Afghanistan, and Vladimir Putin was a young KGB agent at that time, working for Brezhnev, is now in his position as leader, and he invaded Brezhnev’s sovereign homeland of Ukraine. Brezhnev must be weeping from hell and regretting his invasion of Afghanistan! Crying from hell, seeing his servant, Putin, in his seat of authority, and invading his homeland like he did to Afghanistan, I’m sure Brezhnev regrets but it’s too late now. He’s burning in hell and he can’t get out of hell! \n\nThe bad deal that Clinton and Yeltson and John Major dealt to Ukraine in the 1990s when they moved all of her nuclear weapons to Russia was like declawing the Ukrainian cat and now the cat can’t defend herself against aggressors because she has no claws to defend herself from aggressive attackers!\n\nCanada and Mexico are our friends not our enemies! China and North Korea still idolize the USSR/CCCP flag and Soviet Union hammer and sickle. Putin is a thug and gangster like Joseph Stalin. Everyone forgot what happened to Alexander Litvinenko except for those like John Bolton. \n\nWe are all living in perilous times! The wrongdoer (Putin) is called good and the victim (Zelensky) is called bad! This is so negatively bizarre and wrong! Isaiah 5:20 warns against this! Putin is not pure evil but he’s definitely not a good guy! He’s a gangster and thug like Al Capone! I think President Trump is walking on a tight rope by trying to make a good deal with Putin. And that tight rope spans from one high rise building to another - the senate and house chambers of the US legislature. The midterms are coming soon and if President Trump loses the house and senate, that tight rope could snap! And all those shock and awe executive orders etc. could come back to haunt him like a boomerang thumping his head.\n\nNever in my wildest imagination would I ever imagine Canadians harboring bad feelings towards the USA! This is 180 degrees opposite of how things were when Ronald Reagan and Brian Mulroney were in the political arena!

All the leaders of the great old nations now speaking humble and intelligently to the world without even a sign of aggressivness. Please if you have any doubt about Trump being utterly unworthy just compare these speeches for 5 minutes. Trump is not a leader. He is not a politician. Get rid of him. Now. Or suffer the consequences.

Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau Thank you, Great speech thank you to make this nation united. I love this land and respect this wonderful Country.

Gawd! He has to talk to our president like a five year old— “We did big things.”…. You are a smart man doing a dumb thing!” What an embarrassment to our nation!

I gotta say that I'm not a liberal nor have I been a particular fan of Justin Trudeau... but today (and for the last few weeks) I've been quite impressed by my Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau. This Canadian supports a vast and vicious trade war against the United States. I do not have any hatred for the American people but I do have nothing but contempt for Trump and his band of traitorous scum! I wouldn't have dreamed that our closest friend and ally could be siding with an enemy proclaimed (Russia) against democratic nations. Trump represents an existential threat to democracy everywhere and must be put down by the American people like a rabid dog!

Let's make this crystal clear. Donald Trump has declared a trade war with Canada not America. The Trump Tariffs and the Trump Alienation of our allies is a betrayal of America and it's citizens. The vast majority of Americans are against these actions and stand with our allies. Free nations do what needs to be done but please do not cast blame on those Americans who reject this administration wholeheartedly. The Trump administration DOES NOT represent America they are BETRAYERS!

You know there's an old saying that I'm sure Trump is very wise about you keep your friends close and your enemies closer I would say the way Canada is talking they consider us an enemy look at all these other countries that suddenly lined up against America who bailed all of them out of World War II and who brought down the Berlin Wall that shows how thankful you are and America's been paying the highest of the EU and the United Nations than any of you chicken countries I would just laugh at all of you you don't get it and all these comments are from Liberal Democrats who hate Trump it's real obvious that's who his fan base is Trudeau the little boy from the north who's not smart enough to come in from the cold poor guy he's in for a rude awakening she thinks he's going up against America and that we believe any of his BS

Keep standing proud, Canada, and Ukraine. Most Americans definitely understand that this is unnecessary and not what we as a nation stand for. Don't be bullied, or shamed into any deal with this administration. It's full of greed and absolutely untrustworthy. Please don't blame us all. I'm a metro Detroit resident. Canada is my neighbor and friend.

Just a FYI Canadians hate turdo, and this traitor is imposing a 20% carbon tax on Canadians April 1, keep that in mind as well, so he's no better than trump, he froze Canadian bank accounts who opposed him, decarled a peaseful protest a national emergency, sent war horses to trample canadians, he's a p.o.s, so dont give him any credit.

You know the truth President Trumpet, about Canada as our evidence proving sir that Canada’s Governments hire the international known Biker Criminal Organizations to put the Hit on Canadians whom have evidence against Canada’s very corrupted Criminal politicians of the Liberal Party and Conservatives whom for decades across Canada with their provincial underlings have turned Canada into a a Pro Domestice Organized Criminal state , all biker gangs in Canada and mafia have complete Criminal Immunity by all of Canada’s governments. Trudeau Pollievre are iars along with their provincial counter parts. Trudeau currently the head of his governments criminal syndicate’s. The governments of Canada are guilty of criminal acts against us by very much approving and hiring biker gangs and all their street thugs as well as many members of police and national security supporting these gang institutions with complete criminal immunity. The fact is that All of Canada’s allies that have embassies in Ottawa have protected Canada’s clear defined terrorist acts against my wife and I for almost 20 years one government after the other. The Trudeau Government has cut trade deals with other member states that include these nations forced to as part of the Trudeau liberal conservative agenda in trade agreements with out this being written with in those trade agreements that member states must adhere to a collective part of trade agreements that no nation in such agreements is allowed to present any criminal evidence against the governments of Canada by Canadian citizens . Factum. The Trudeau government and their entire Parliament of opposition are so frightened of our 20 years of evidence that they have closed off all my videos on YouTube to the public both with in Canada and outside Canada. The world cannot become all gangster states and gangster statemen for this will destroy the nations. Canada’s prime ministers have lied and lied and lied they do not at all deal with internal domestic criminal gang terrorism they secretly endorce all of it. Many American peoples suffer from the governments of Canada’s secret criminal gang Drug Trade. Trudeau for example decided to legalise cannabis a industry run by all the criminal organizations in Canada prior to legalisation making hundreds of millions of pot laundering drug money, Trudeau decides he wants a cut of the pot trade so he legalises all the criminal organizations running illegal grow operations now licenced to legally operate across Canada and sell pot legally to Canadians paying revenue Canada tens of millions in taxes the same organizations are now licienced by Trudeau to grow operations these same groups also are involved in international illegal drug activity in with South American Cartels and Mexican Cartels. Trump must come clean with God and take action against Canada 75 percent sanctions must employed. The reason why Canada refuses to join the U.S as a 51’s state is because we would then fall under the U.S Justice System and then the U.S would be shocked to see that Canada is a criminal state.

Canada is a great nation ❤....A good ally is hard to find. American must not lose one.

I don’t think that Trump’s Tariffs have anything to do with Fentanyl. His aim is to isolate USA from their allies, he wants to gather as much money as possible to pay for huge tax cuts to the richest oligarchs. This is all about greed first and the destruction of democracy second. We are so much more vulnerable as a nation at this time. I love my Canadian friends, please don’t think that us New Englanders support him.

It’s not about fentanyl at all. Donald Trump is just using that as an excuse. He is lying to the American people like he always does. Don’t back down Canada ?? do your worst!! Trump voters need to feel the pain to realize what they have voted for. I’m embarrassed and disgusted with America right now and who we are becoming. Be proud of your nation and your leadership Canada!! America isn’t and can’t be as long as DT is in office.

As a US citizen I have never never never been so disgusted. I am angry for us here and all other nations around the world being impacted by our current insane administration.

Well done Treudeau ❤sock it to the Yellow-Orange clown ? trump...I think the USA should remove the Felon & his henchmen, musk,vance, Pootin ASAP. Trump is a National threat to its own country ? trump has been compromised ? everything that trump does is Dumb.

Our immature Canadian leader reacting emotionally, not professionally time to turn down the rhetoric. How about look for solutions and a long long over due, Canada supporting Canada first. \nShame on Canadian government for not marketing Canada and turning into a highly competitive nation. \nBy the way this is not a secure country!

As an American, my deepest apologies to Canada… rump only received 49% of the national vote.. so likely the majority of Americans hate this ??‍♂️

Trump, Vance and musk and the congressional R are all the dumbest in our nation. The majority of Americans agree with you and Zelenskyy. May god bless your country and deal with the fools R politicians of USA.

Many of us stand with our strongest friend and neighbor. This is not what the people of the U.S. desire, it is not what we want either. The government that stands against our friends and allies and we are using our voices in hopes someone who is sucking his teat takes a moment to come to common sense. We are not a great nation in this moment and my heart aches for the many impacted from this rediculous moment of arrogance, name calling and isolation from the world

There's many reasons not to like Trudeau up here in Canada, many of which are the reason he'll (rightfully) no longer be the PM next week. As a conservative I hated him for SNC-Lavalin (among other scandals), and the fact that his inexperience with the economy Harper left him is probably part of why this trade war is going to hurt more than it could have, and the fact that he's often been kind of a phony more concerned with looking and sounding good for the press cameras. Not this time. Nothing phony here; I've got to give credit to him for capturing the national mood pretty much perfectly with this speech. Good on him. \n\nAnd congratulations as well to Donald for pretty much handing the Liberals their best shot at a fourth term, too. What an absolute idiot. Normally I'd turn my nose up at having to vote Liberal, but I am so, so sick of the brand of empty populism Trump stands for that it looks like that's what I'm gonna be doing come election time.

I'm a REAL AMERICAN. I proudly Stand with Canada, Ukraine and all Sovereign Nations and allies.\n\nRussia and Putin ARE THE ENEMY!!\nTRUMP IS A TRAITOR!!\n\nWe are United with Canada and we'll get through this TOGETHER.
