As an American, I am appalled by Trump’s actions. I, for one, agree that his reasons for imposing tariffs is a lie. I strongly disagree with his blatant disregard for America’s allies. There is NO justification for aligning the US with Putin. If he thinks Putin has our interests in mind, he is crazy! Before it’s too late, I hope that his cabinet, the house, and senate realize that they can no longer support a president who does not support our interests as a country.

I am an American and I support you Canada.

No one believes the fentanyl lies the American Nazis in the Whitehouse tell NO ONE!!! they should have already been dragged out and took to the gilotin CANADA is our loyal family and we have attacked our own familyand the tariffs are on US!! he has lied on Canada to steal from all of us to give more and more to the billionaires THE OLIGARDS OF AMERICA!!! the elderly of America will starve the children of America will starve and our children of America will be working the jobs the immigrants work to support their families and that is the plan it's in their 2025 plan and everyone who voted for it knew it !!! NOW only knowing they are doing everything in their power to fight this is the only way they will be shown any sympathy!!! everyone who supports these Nazis should be exposed every business from the billionaires to the hotdog stand should be boycotted the real Americans need to support each other now ! what people need now is constant information on who is helping and who is not!! and if the media is going to support the people then we must not support them !! and the commercials on media that show any support to these aggressors or works to suppresses the truth should noted and boycotted .we must boycott them all we cannot give them a penny and take any penny we can we must get our country back let's all go AMERICA NOW!!! we must save america

I am from Alberta, Canada and would like to thank all the American people that have said that they stand with Canada. YOU CAN HELP. Call or write to your various levels of government and let them know that this is wrong and will hurt everyone in the US and Canada. The sooner that the US government realizes this is a no win situation, the better for all of us. Also, thank you to everyone around the world for your support. I am Canadian, I am strong and free and I will fight for my country and for my family.

This American from Ohio supports you guys

Please know not all Americans voted or support Mr. Trump! He is an embarrassment to our country and the world. My heart aches daily for the harm and division he is creating. We are in serious trouble. I support Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine.

Majority of us Americans do not support rapist trump

Trump supports a dictator who lets children and babies die and wants to wipe out an entire country. He is opposing all of his allies for Putin. Putin will get money again. He is sacrificing parts of Ukraine and Putin has no need to fear punishment. Many countries were allies of the USA. We fully supported the USA after September 11th. People in the EU also died for you! I liked the USA very much, I spent my vacation there but I will not do that anymore, I will no longer buy American products. A dictator is being supported here and all our help to Ukraine for the past 3. years will be wasted! Trump will also restructure the USA so that he is the only king and no one controls him anymore. He want rich russians oligarch in the USA...That is how I think and feel... he s like Biff in back to the future when he owns all...From Germany! Thank You Canada❤.. \n\nI send love and recognition to every US American who did not vote for this president and who is for democracy and human rights. ❤️

Indigenous American here. I support President Trump and THE UNITED STATES ??. I dont believe an iota of what comes out of Canada's Fidel Castro Jr.'s split tongue.

I am an American and I support Canada and Mexico for fighting back. The only way to win with this bullying regime in America is to be strong and punch back. The Felon does not understand diplomacy. Prime Minister Trudeau you are a gentleman, you have done everything possible, even allowed yourself to be humiliated by the US, and to what end? Do not bow down nor kiss the ring. Do what you have to to defend your country. Trump only understands strength, so Canada should be strong and fight back. Wish you well.

It’s an embarrassment. I hope Canada and the rest of the world realize that millions of intelligent progressive Americans do not support the orange clown who we have the misfortune of having as our president. We envy you for having an eloquent respectable leader.

Trump could care less how much the tariffs will hurt us Americans. He’s a dictator. The American people don’t support the actions he is taking. Only 25% of the US support him. They are uneducated and easily swayed people. \nMy ancestors are all from Quebec. Boy do I wish I had Canadian citizenship. I pray for Canada and their people. Please forgive the American people for being fooled by this dictator. ❤

Canadians, many Americans support you and hate what WH is doing to you and Mexico and Ukraine. It is time to take that 4 year cruise that goes around the world until the next election.

I’m American and I stand with Canada also Ukraine. Trump has made the US a nightmare and joke to live in. I was afraid his first term and terrified this second term. I did not vote or support this man.

I am very glad our prime minister has stepped up and pushed back hard with what the orange predator down south and his puppet master, Putin, have forced on us. I have no doubt that this is going to be hard economically for us, but is a necessary step. Together, as a sovereign nation, we can weather this \n storm. Im very proud of how much Canadians have stepped up to support local and Canadian companies over American products. As our national anthem says, we stand on guard for thee. That includes all Canadian, no matter what skin color or background we are. United we are, and always will be, a force not to be pushed around.

As an American, I am embarrassed by our leadership. Presidents like Trudeau and Zelensky are men to look up to. They may not be perfect, but they remain strong and confident in the face of the tyranny of Trump and Putin. I live an hour from the Canadian border, and they have been nothing but kind and amazing every time I've ever visited. My support is with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. It is a dark and embarrassing time to be an American.

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

PLEASE KNOW THAT MOST AMERICANS LOVE AND SUPPORT CANADA, BUT WE ARE CURRENTLY PRISONERS OF A FASCIST REGIME THAT WAS 'ELECTED' BY AN IGNORANT POPULACE. GOD BLESS AND GOD HELP AMERICA!

This is what a leader sounds like, someone who cares more about his people and the Americans than that orange stained coward. Reap what you sow trump supporters, I hope his policies send you to the poor house

As an American I support everything you are doing!! I respect your countries position. As an American I will endure until Trump is forced out of office. I’m praying for our country and for your country as well as our allies that had been there for us. I’m in my seventh decade and can’t believe this is happening. Peace and prayers.

American, that absolutely supports Canada…. Granted Im a black American, so let that sit in…. I’m sorry we had ignorant people who put racism and bigotry of valuing our democracy. Pray for all of us…

Embarrassed to live in America. I hope all of Canada knows the vast majority of Americans don't support the actions of the pile of orange crap.

American from California aslso known as mini Denmark we stand with the world and democracy in condemnation of Trump and his eyeliner-lapdog vance, no relation to lipstick lesbians they too support democracy and sanity!

As a US citizen who didn't vote for the president (Trump) we have who is corrupt, self- serving and would have gone to prison if he had not been voted as president. I too am appalled at what he and his minions have done already. \nI understand what Canada has to do to protect itself. I support Canada.I feel for the Canadian people. Trump is a scourge to our country. Prime Minister Trudeau is too kind to Trump of being smart. He is not smart. He is hurting the American people in so many ways and he does not care. \nThank-you Prime Minister Trudeau and God bless the Canadian people and God bless the American people that didn't vote for Trump .

I am ashamed of trump. This is all on him! Please world believe me Most Americans do not support this at all! I will still buy Canadian God Bless America and Canada ❤

American here. I stand with and support Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. DOWN WITH TRUMP! DOWN WITH MAGA!

Thank you to all of you taking the time to send your supportive thoughts and words.\nWe so didn't want our hand to be forced :(\nWe need to unite as North Americans, this is senseless and so divisive. Sad ?

There a lot of us Americans that hate what Trump is doing! I just wish there was some way that we could get him out of office. He is most unintelligent person this world has ever seen. Do what you have to do, a lot of Americans who support you!

Spoken like a true leader. Canada, I stand by you and your decision to stand your ground. Americans do not support this action. It’s time for you, the TRUMPSTERS, to stand in opposition to your GOD and to show that this is not the American way!

I am an American. I am also reasonable and polite. I didnot vote for #47 or support any of his policies, but will suffer the consequences of his pyscopathy along with so many others. Thank you for showing the world what integrity looks like. I stand with Canada.

Yes, we will be hurt. There is not a problem with the American people, but there is a problem with the American government. We will stand with you against trump's robber baron policies.\n At the same time, We Will support our nation and fellow Canadians through these 'stupid' times.\n With thanks, from British Columbia ??

the most patriotic thing you can do as an american is support europe at this point

I am an American and I fully support Canada in this. Our leadership here is broken.

Hate to tell you Justin but we got what you're selling. America needs to become independent in energy and agriculture. America needs to support its own farmers, and oil and gas workers. Its time for America to become America again! You are crazy if you live in America and don't support American manufacturing, Farmers, oil and gas workers. Maybe you should move to Canada if you don't agree with America first.

As an American, I do not support this criminal administration.

As an American, I support Trudeau and the Canadian response. Only when the Trumpers feel the pain of his inaction will we finally get back on track

I'm American and I sincerely apologize to the Canadian government and people for the actions of the Kremlin stooges currently in the White House. 100% support for you!

I come from a long line of Canadian’s, I’m not a fan of Trudeau but I have to say he made me proud today standing up to the school yard bully. I know most Americans don’t support what Trump is doing because as Canadian and Americans we are decent hard working people who don’t need a government that doesn’t speak for the people God bless us all the world needs to find a way for peace our children and grandchildren deserve better.

This is a president who cars about his people and will not lie to his people, we should be ashamed of ourselves as Americans who support this government.

Trudeau is a sensible President. As an American, I support Trudeau - NOT dumb Trump

Aussie supporting Canada; No way will i travel to America while this Administration is in power, no way will i buy American goods while this administration is in power.

I hope all the Maganuts and die-hard Republicans that bend a knee to a despicable wannabe tyrant Commander in Cheats, who only shines in one color, Orange, feel the pain of voting for a liar and cheat when these stupid tariffs come stumbling down on businesses that support EL Pendejo. This piece of Dongbeetle fodder does not represent all Americans, and for that, I wholeheartedly apologize to our Canadian friends. Our elected buffoon wants every one to kiss his feet like his hand picked minions, unlike Zelensky, who told him to take a long walk off a short pier.

Im a Ukrainian born and an American citizen. I support freedom, and it breaks my heart to see Americas government side with Putin and abandon a freedom loving Ukraine. Thank you to everyone who supports Ukraine and opposes evil. God bless us all and help us.

Somebody said: once you realize trump works for Putin, everything he does makes sense. As an American, I fully support Canada on this non-sense from the US.

Trump has gone beyond his origin as an inept embarrassment and morphed into a dictator-in-training that poses an absolute danger to the United States and all the values that we once represented. He does NOT speak for all Americans. I support our allies in North America as well as those across the pond.

Where are the people who voted him? Let me guess, hiding underneath a rock. Must be so embarrassed for voting for that clown. Trump is all about freedom of speech. Stand up and protest this fool. He will sell out the American people to Putin. As a Canadian thank you world for all the support. We all have a duty to fight evil. Donald is the devil in sheeps clothing.

As an American, We support you Canada. Trump and Musk are dumb and dumber.

Don't you dare to speak to our president like that. Who the hell are you? He is not Donald for you, he is Mr. President for you. And all American citizens, who support the democrats, stop this hate, this is your Country too.

As a American just few hours away from Canadian border... we don't need your garbage we already replaced Canada, get over it. . we are tired of supporting the world, constantly dumping money into other countries... we are putting America first and if anyone gets butthurt about that well thats just to bad

As an American I don't want this either but yes OUR government Is HURTING everyone, I support your efforts to protect YOUR country. You are doing exactly what you need to do. Not all of us are stupid.
