Tariffs or no tariffs, I won't be buying anything from the USA, or visiting the USA, or investing in American companies, even after Donald is gone. Because the people who elected him will still be there, and they're pretty sure they can take care of themselves without anyone else's help.

Justin Trudeau is ten times the leader that idiot tRump could ever hope to be.\nI can't believe there are still some Americans that support tRump. America has gone to hell.

He has gone too far. Can people see this?

I bet Justin's approval rating has gone up since this BS. My apologies from an American, may Gourd have mercy on us all.

Trudeau? Isn't he gone?

As an American, Trudeau, as he mentioned in his speech, is no friend of mine. These tariffs aren't going to hurt me any more than the last 4 years in america has under democrat leadership. I lost family to fentanyl, I lost my job due to terrible democrat economic policies. I lost my home. I lost my savings. I lost all hope of ever owning a home. Im losing my mother to what I am sure was the jab. I've got nothing left to take. Tariffs aren't going to hurt me. Liberal policies, from people just like Trudeau, have destroyed my life. I want to see him in ruins.\n\nI feel for the citizens of Canada. I don't care what liberal news media says- I know that Canadian people want him gone too.

I purchased my canadian flag today and I live in the u.S I stand behind you, one hundred percent canada! I love you and love everything you stand for. He's a lunatic in there is no reasoning with a lunatic. His cult following has gone too far. I couldn't ask for better neighbors.I couldn't ask for better friends. I love you, and I will more than proudly, fly your flag on my porch!!! ❤❤❤

You go PM Trudeau - America needs you more than Canada needs America. If America wanted to stop drug movement, it should have gone after those drug thugs instead of going after identifiable by color, hard working men, women and children.

Canada should do everything in its power to reduce its dependence on the USA for trade and security to protect itself from a Trump administration gone crazy. There is a chance that the current policies of the Trump administration will be carried forward by future Republican presidents given how the party is now dominated by MAGA people. We all need to consider the possibility that the USA will not be going back to normal anytime soon.

I am a canadian and half my family live in the US... we are not enemies but I am not alone in fearing what America is becoming and the direction it is taking in trade , geo politics and governing philosophy. \nthe people behind project 2025 are not rational old conservatives harking back to a by gone era, they are christian fundementalists enacting a plan to bring about the transformation of the US into a full blown christian theocracy. A christian version of the taliban. \nThe vast majority of Americans don't want this and I believe share my fears on the direction of the country... it'll be up to the corporate oligachs to decide how this gets settled and that should scare the crap out of everyone... because they just want chaos to make money, to profit and to self aggrandise and stride on the stage as power merchants ... they could not care less about the American people.\na time is coming that fits the orginal purpose of the second amendment ... let's just hope people are smart enough to know who to point them at...

Governor Trudeau was supposed to have resigned weeks ago. Why hasn't he gone away yet?

USA gone wild, ?? Australia stands with Canada and Ukraine!

A true leader. Are Canadians sure they want him gone?\nIt’s time the rest of the civilised world turned its back on the US. We have all been lazy and relied on them taking away the need to invest in what we can do. Which is why they think they hold all the cards Let’s stop this now and all civilised nations that do not have narcissistic tyrants at the lead pull resources together with new trade deals and prove them wrong. Let them implode. It will happen. Let’s not trade with them \nStop buying Teslas too

How is the U.S. not any better than Russia!? And how is your Orange warlord not any better than Putin!?! When tRump is pulling tactics straight out of Putins playbook!? He is cozying up and taking the side of dictators and threatening Canada and other countries the same way that Putin did to Ukraine, and then wonder why relations have gone down hill so fast!!??

beef has gone from Kendrick vs. Drake to Trump vs. Trudeau

Trudeau driving Canada further into the poor house again, giving Canadians the finger before he is FINALLY gone for good !!

Trudeau you are starting to sound like Trump, act more like a Canadian that’s why we want you gone!

All my love to our Canadian family and neighbors to the north. This is a great day of shame for the United States and it will take years...and probably decades after Donald is gone to repair the damage.

I hope my fellow Americans stop blindly following trump and get all these current idiots out of our government \nWish I could leave and come back when trump is gone

Funny... many many americans say they dont need canada. FAFO! This has gone too far. Look back on the war of 1812 between us and canada... and now look at the tomato clown undoing everything everyones been doing to stay allies. Hes delusional and needs to be taken out for being so god damn inhumane!

I'm with Canada wholeheartedly. I apologize for this dumbfuckery, Mr. Trudeau. Every day, when I wake up, I wonder: Is he gone yet? That's my current wish. Trump accused Kamala Harris of wanting to bring the country to World War III, but is he, a FIVE-TIME DRAFT DODGER, who is itching to have blood and death at a global level, in his name. He is a shameful loser, and Putin's puppet.❤

The guy that most Canadians hate is speaking for them ? As soon as he's gone how fast things get in order

Thank you for keeping it real. Russia president was more like you because we have an idiot for president right now. He wasn’t good before and he’s not good now America’s gone to shit.

I thought this clown was gone?

all you people,, this is what cheats and crooks do,. talk sweet on the camera,, but do not do any work which effects your daily lives. Trump is not those people,, his action speaks louder than words,, the time to rip america off is over,, america will prosper now,, free money and aid is gone now,, all you countries,, work hard to earn your wages now,, nothing is going to be a handout,, america is no more your grannys shop.

I thought you were gone Trudy. We like you Canada but we don’t really need you. We can solve the problems we get from you in 15 minutes. This guy has no problem freezing protesters bank accounts, forcing people to scan QR codes to decided who eats at a restaurant, and government sanctioned beatings of peaceful protesters because they dare stand up for freedom. Canada wake up. Trudy is a good old fashioned communist. The more he fights back against Trump, the more I know Trump is right.

How long is it going to take to rebuild relations after he's gone? I'm worried it won't be as quick of a process.

If Democrats have not gone crazy about their love of illegal immigrants thos would have never had happened

Suddenly he want to fight drugs while for past years you legalize every possible drug i Canada. You should be ashamed of yourself Trudeau. When Trump wanted to put tarrifs on Canada you were gone to Portugal apart of making a deal with the guy. Now you cry like a little guy and blaming Trunp for everything while you wasnt even here to negotiate and you shut down Canadian government for your own partisan purpose and government does not exist right now in Canada just because you afraid of loosing election so you just trying to survive as a PM for as long as possible. Not trump but YOU destroyed Canada and its economy and making Canadians life harder and harder and spending our tax money all over the world

Trudeu ,you can take your country and your liberal ass we have been footing the bill for years and years,,we wont dig you out of this war and your debt to usa,,period ..you will be gone shortly your people cant stand you..

I have a feeling that there’s going to be a civil war, thousands of workers laid off, inflation, veterans and federal workers jobs are gone, the very people who voted for trump were fired by him, farmers are abandoned now, and many people stand with gaza, and also zelensky , even the cartels are putting a target on the president , along with axed c.i.a. ,f.b.i. workers,so in other words… pressure is building and i guarantee its going to be a reverse january 6th, and don’t think that russia , iran, china and north korea is waiting for the opportunity to do us in, because we may be the most powerful country, but.. at one point, egypt, and rome were also.

I think that Trump is either gone completely mad or he has turned traitor to America. As an Australian I stand completely in solidarity with Canada but really worry about our reliance on the US. If Trump has no loyalty to his neighboring allies , what chance do we have of him supporting us? I am very glad that important people are finally standing up to this bully.

The majority of Canadians no longer trust Trudeau or his liberal cronies. He has prorouged our government to tie our hands behind our backs. Do you people understand what that means? It means Canadians no longer have a voice or a vote. Of course CNN fake news is promoting this bs and the lies because he pays them. We're not free to choose our own government, news sources or speak freely anymore. We want him gone and Pierre Pollieve to replace him.

What is happening now only person who should be blamed is biden and Democrats if they have not gone crazy for their love for illegals. This would have never happened,many people never had anyother option but to vote. for trump because their main reason was illegal immigration.??

Me again. I too have something to say to the Americans who are struggling. Let me ask you all something. What does a country really need to keep it going? The answer is people. With no people working to keep a country going. Then you can't really call your country a country. Let me sadly tell you this ladies and gentlemen. The America you loved and worked hard to sustain, is gone, gone and replaced by your president and his followers. America is now Trump's America. He has change everything that made your America free, peaceful and safe. And when or not you get it back. All of you need to make a decision. If you feel like your safety, life and wellness of your family is in real danger. Then if you can get out of America. Go to a country that you believe will help you and keep you and your family safe and well. Always put your families safety and health first. But if you Don't have the money or a car go leave? Then let me say. Keep fighting and don't stop fighting until this low life criminal and traitor is removed from power. I am praying for all of you who are struggling. Don't give in and don't give up.❤

We need to stop calling America as a friend/ally. Those days are long gone.

LOLOL This is comical!!! Isn't he stepping down??? So who will handle the blow back after he's gone? Canadians need to think twice about what's he's saying or doing...he doesn't have to deal with the fallout later!

I respect President Putin far more than I do you, Trudeau. As I have zero respect for you, and your leftist ideology. I’m 100% in agreement with President Trump. You’ll soon be gone, so anything you say is moot. Wherever found, leftist propaganda is dead. Finished.

I always thought trump is the Manchurian candidate . Slowly destroying within . Just surprised or not that ordinary American can’t figure that out. Trudeau was never have a good approval rating and now he have resigned from his party soon that he rating suddenly gone up because of this tariff. Good luck American . Stay strong Canadian , time to trade with eu

US has gone rogue :(

Who cares he’s gone anyways?

Well, Americans can hear first-hand that Canada has gone above and beyond to maintain a peaceful, productive alliance. This will hurt the working class people in all countries associated, but the working class Americans more than any other group. \n\nThis is a sad day in world history.

Trump gone ruin United States, they will be alone, and unfortunately china will take US place in internacional institutions.

From the Netherlands I stand with Canada and Ukraine. And not the lying authoritarian Trump regime!\n\nI remember Trump saying America is no longer the laughing stock of the world... True now we can really only shake our heads at this point. It's gone beyond laughing stock. It's just sad now.

Why you are so worried, you’re days are numbered after October you’re gone. Remember your winter last almost 7 months.\nNobody will invest in that kind of weather. US just have 500 billion dollars and 100 billion dollars of investment just signed days ago.\nThis speech really makes you are really worried. Why they are no Starbucks in Canada only Tim Horton that’s why you have this tarrifs ???

As a Brit I'm proud of Canada and the EU for calling out and standing up to the BS that's happening right now. Rather than caving in and becoming Trump's lapdog. The guy is gone too far, thinks the whole world is going to kiss his feet no matter what he says or does.

### **Americans, Wake Up Before It’s Too Late!** \n \nDo you realize what’s happening? **Donald Trump is pushing the world toward World War III.** This is not a conspiracy, this is not speculation—this is reality. A man who **wears two diapers and has little time left to live** doesn’t care what happens after he’s gone. He has no vision for the future, because in his mind, **there is no future.** \n \nThis is just the beginning. **If you think things are bad now, imagine what’s coming next.** Trump and his billionaire allies, including **Elon Musk**, are playing a dangerous game, one that could **end civilization as we know it.** These are not leaders—they are reckless, power-hungry individuals with no regard for the world that you and your children will inherit. \n \n? **Trump must be impeached before he takes us all down with him!** \n? **Musk must be held accountable before his reckless ambitions destroy what’s left of our planet!** \n \nThis is not about politics. This is about survival. **The future of humanity depends on our ability to stop them now!**

And forsure he is on CNN i won't believe anything he said he has ruined Canada he will be gone

Trudeau has spent the last 9 years destroying Canada. He is supposedly on his way out. Most of Canada want him gone the guy was a drama teacher that lost his job for an inappropriate relationship with a minor. He arranged a NDA for a couple of million. All Americans see is his hair and his speaking ability. You can’t believe any of the word salad out of his mouths. Canada’s most corrupt PM ever.

People aren’t even talking about tourism because it’s not directly hit by tariffs. Over 20 billion dollars in 2024 spent by Canadians in the US for travel. Tons of people already cancelled any trips to the US to boycott. If even 10% less people go to US this year, upwards of 2 billion in tourism $ is gone , and roughly 14000 jobs estimated. \n\nImagine what else could be affected
