Go away already!!

I would've loved for canada to go full petty and make their border patrols start whistling and turning around whenever they find fentanyl on its way to the US :D

Trump is such an idiot, and so are his followers. They are going to pay for this, not the Canadian government. Despite Trump and his clowns say it's not. Another one of their lies.

This is not going to end well for Canada as 70% of their exports go to the United States. Canada is about to lose their biggest customer real quick.

America is now a pariah state. I'm a Brit, and I have traded all my shares that were in American companies, and my son has cancelled a trip there. He's going to Canada instead. America will not see one penny of our money.

Make NO MISTAKE...ALL of Canada is pissed right off\n This will not go away any time soon.

Mexico has already proposed their response! Go, Canada and Mexico!

Justin Trudeau's drug policies in Canada have been a disaster and now he pretends he is concerned about Fentanyl [a member of the class of drugs known as fentanyls, rapid-acting opioid (synthetic opiate) drugs that alleviate pain without causing loss of consciousness (analgesic). Fentanyl depresses central nervous system (CNS) and respiratory function. Exposure to fentanyl may be fatal.] going into the United States. He is a lame-duck Prime Minister on his way out of political life let alone public office as Prime Minister of Canada. His poll numbers were miserable and he was not supported within many in his own cabinet because of his divsisive decisions with Alberta, female MPs and hypocritical and harmful actions and words as well as broken promises to the Canadian Tax payers.

Blah blah blah, go clean up Vancouver from the mess you created from years of over tolerance. We will all see where the dust settles in a few months. The art of the deal.

Go Canada, let him have it. Know that most Americans don’t support his actions. More than half of us DID NOT vote for him, and those that did likely had no idea what tariffs were or certainly didn’t understand how they work. Though I didn’t vote for him, I am so embarrassed and I am so sorry to the entire world for the horrible decision so many people in my country have made.

I want to apologize to our friends to the north. Most of us don't approve of trump's actions.\nI for one, stand with you. \ntrump is wrong and he's going to destroy our country.

no cars, no food, no electricity. We are going to be in line for bread and water. All because of trump.

Putin advise Donald Trump to disassociate ourselves with all of our allies and to break down our defenses so he can then come in and start a war with the United States of America then we would have no allies that we can count on because of all the enemies that Donald Trump has made in once Putin can take over the United States of America and start bombing us then we are f***** and we will learn how it feels to be bombed and lose many of our people here in the United States just like Ukraine is going through right now and other countries that are fighting for their freedom and their people! Y'all have to understand this s*** is bigger than tears and Donald Trump is too f****** dumb to understand and to see what Elon musk, putin, Kim Jong-un all are plotting against his dumbass to hurt the United States of america, to hurt his own people, Donald Trump do not give a f*** about the United States of america, let's be clear or his people, and he damn sure does not give a damn about the Constitution of the United States of America

Bravo Trudeau. I agree with you. Totalment d'accord avec vous. Keep going Canada ❤??????

America can keep their goods.\n Trump has created all this and the rest of the world should wash their hands of Trump's deals.\n\nThe American people should be going crazy because of the power they have given Trump.\n\nCrazy times

Trueaderp really dont understand why inflation is going to and State is acting this towards Canada.? Its cause u fucked up really bad at everything you did.\nAllowing drugs and so many refugee that country cannot support. And now he is talking shit like he didn't do those. \nTruederp is such a bullshit. Conservative needs to take over

Please, Prime Minister, don't go away. Our Canada has been drowning for the last nine years.??????

Twice in a week Trump is humiliated by a world leader, Trump thinking he can be a president of a country like the ceo of a corporation. He blackmails people offering them scraps from the table of his last meal as if they should be thankful. How on gods earth did America vote this clown as it's leader. Putin has spent 3 years trying to get into Kiev and in a few weeks has managed to get into the Oval office of the Whitehouse. I sit here in the UK watching what is going on in America like many around the world cringing and at the same time laughing at how such a scumbag could achieve what he has done. Trump and his arse licking lapdog are making a laughing stock of the US and you seem helpless to stop the shitshow that is coming your way. I feel for you and hope his stupidity will lead to a very quick exit for the now most famous clown in the world.

Go Canada! Let's all unite to keep our country.

A couple of things.\n\n1. Great that he basically called Trump an idiot.\n2. He blew up Trump's lies about fentanyl coming in calimly and with facts.\n3. He did not call Trump 'President' when addressing him. He simply called him Donald. No title, no respect.\n\nNot a fan of Trudeau, but he was absolutely spot on with this. Go to hell, Donald Trump.

Here's the view from over in Scotland. It seems that people who cast their vote for Trump are going to have to learn the hard way. Canada is not going to be Trump's Ukraine.

So when are you going to talk about your border. When are you going to call an election so we can flush you down the drain and get our country back ? And no we are not going to boo the USA anthem. Trudeau is a disgrace

Just stop the flow ? It’s a no brainer people! Then tariffs go away, it’s simple DUH ?

As an Australian I am so proud of Canada my second favourite country -- well done. I'm not buying anything American and certainly won't travel there. Direct flights from Brisbane to Vancouver mean I don't even have to go over the US.

Bro everything has been going up since the 70s.

Joe Biden didn’t have none of this nonsense and chaos going on . That’s all I’m saying!?

You are the reason we are in this position, don’t blame Trump for your poor leadership, you are a terrible Priminister probably the worst in history just like Biden you need to go , you are a enemy to the Canadian people.

It's interesting to see, how Trump weakens the US influence on all other nations worldwide in the last and following days. Sounds more and more like he is infleunced externally. Let's see how far he can go in the next long four political years.

Let's go 51..?. One big pity party going on in here.. Time will tell , we are not giving in....?. We are already making Canada Better. Your welcome.

Trudeau is serving the final moments of his last term, but his approval ratings shot up since the Trump presidency started. Trump genuinely such a crappy leader than other leaders with approval ratings in the dirt are gaining support for going against him. As an American, it’s damn amazing. I hope the next PM of Canada keeps up the same energy and doesn’t concede to the US. Things won’t get better until the world sticks it to us, because the world turning their backs on us is the only thing that’ll get through the thick skulls of anyone who still supports Trump.

I always wondered where is the Canadas Money? What do they do with it? Where does it all go things cost so much more than other country's. Does the money stay in Canada? Or does it go to the CROWN I don't know. Wherever it goes it is not the People that see much of it.

add a sales tax to any exports going to the yanks...25%

I’m just 9:04 going to start pretending he is my president ?

Why is he talking. He lost a vote of no confidence and is going to jail for corruption. He should be thrown out of Canada

Your right I did not vote for Trump I did not like his firstTerm and he is much worse now I am a Independent voter the people they have running are all full of shit The USA IS GOING UNDER and unless we stand together to Impeach the whole white house we are in trouble I am going to a few of those rallies and I am hoping some how we can Impeach all Republicans and get them the hell out of the USA once and for all God Bless we the people in America we don't stick together you can count on World War lll and I Blame it totally on Trump and the brain washed Republicans mark my words your going to regret it I think alot of you are already Will Good Luck To All

Way to go down swinging Just. VP Vance and Donnie J are sad indictment of the social mentality of America.

A lot of propaganda going on. This whole comment section is full of bots. I am fully behind my country. Let's go America.

Be prepared to be invaded ? MAGA ?? GO TRUMP!

Donald youve just givin up on your friends here in Canada and likely the EU after their tarifs come in April. I hope your alliance with Putin is worth it because if you keep going on like this, he'll be your only friend

I know he's being a diplomat but he should have said 'Donald you're NOT a very smart guy and this is a dumb decision'. All leaders are being so careful with Trump because he can literally take everything so personal and then go into vengeance. He is just not cut out to do this job.

Not once did he talk about why this is happening? He says he's our friend but saying it is one thing. Actions speak louder Trudeau. Mr. Trump asked you to meet him to get balanced fair trade. You say you are our friend. But, yet you don't want fair and balanced trade. Hmmm, common sense goes a long. Tariff is a smart way to let you know that your certainly not acting like the friend and ally you say you are. This could all go away, but the truth is your demonrat supporter who lies, misleads the truth, and blames others. We the people don't tolerate that any longer and don't appreciate it. Shame on you!

No it is NOT hard to believe this is going on. When you elect a criminal who floats the rule of law and the Constitution, this is exactly what you should expect. I don't believe for one instant that the politicians in the Republican party and a good number in the Democrat party did not see this coming, althpugh the Republicans who anticipated it wanted it and the Democrats didn't.

I'm European and I am so proud about Mr. Trudeau and his team. What an intelligent people. The speech is simple to understand but together it is so strong and says all that matters. Applause. 20-40 years ago US was seen as a dream country here in EU, every east European dreamed to live there, but not anymore. Today most would not go to US to live even if they are payed to do so. US reputation is in historical downfall.

Let’s go Canada. Mexico its with you… its time to get united for the good of our people for our families

Republicans and Maga, you're all going down the toilet bowl together!

He is acting as if this is only going to hurt Americans when it will literally cripple his country. He is failing his people.

Eating my popcorn and laughing my ass off while watching the clown show roll through town, 92% ,I told you all that I was going to laugh ?????, black people especially black women should stay out of it.

Way to go Canada, I'm American and and ashamed of our felon wanna be dictator that had put us in this position.

This makes me want to go spend my American dollars in Canada.
