I would like to say this, Canada we do understand. I thank GOD I seen the evil in Trump and his buddies. It's call spiritual discernment. You people that believe in Christ, you better put your trust in the good LORD.

Why isn't Canada doing anything to stop illicit drugs in their Country. That's what this is about. Trump is America First and I won't apologize for that. \nTrudeau is talking like he has some kind of power over the U.S. Not very smart Canada will go broke if they don't comply with Trump's reques to shut down drug trafficking in Canada that comes across our border. \nFentanyl is still detected in an overwhelming majority of illicit drug deaths in Canada, according to PHAC, but the unpredictability and potency of other substances mixed in with the fentanyl are making the supply more dangerous. \nMexican cartels are operating fentanyl and nitazene synthesis labs in Canada. \nA recent study recognized Canada’s heightened domestic production of fentanyl, and its growing footprint within international narcotics distribution. \nCanada-based drug trafficking organizations maintain robust “super labs,” mostly in rural and dense areas in western Canada, some of which can produce 44 to 66 pounds of fentanyl weekly.

@Canada: in Europe we will be happy to work with you! \nAs the US-toddler president is also destroying the relationshop with his european allies. Let him feel like how it is to break ties with his (former) allies.

What a prick. Acting like putin is a criminal and dupporting that teprobate killer zelensky. Outrageous. And outrageous trying to pretend the US is evil. Go ahead canada, kiss his butt. The US will dirvive better than canada. And hes trying to subvert the US citizen. But he doesnt want to do crap about the border. His own nayives suffer kidnaping for himan trafficking constantly. \nTrudeau is a woke lefty and a little tyrant. We arent hust talking fentanyl here castro jr.

This is what a leader of the free world sounds like: Level-headed, expressive, factual, referencing trade agreements, how we have met your demands and good sentiments about working together to solve problems. This is NOT how you lower prices for Americans! This as about a narcissist wanting to be an Oligarch, and a grapist, wanting to grape Canada, like his boyfriend Putin is doing in Ukraine.

Thought this man was stepping down and not liked in Canada Everyone should get the facts This man said No to closing our borders are you Americans are not this man was letting Illegal immigrants through on the Canadian side SCREW TRUDEAU

Why can't the POTUS speak in clear, complete sentences like the Prime Minister of Canada?

Keep your crap. I don't eat bacon, i don't drink your water. Canada and your overzealous gun laws can freeze in the ice-cold mountain. All you have done is nothing but cry like a child.

God help the Americans. You all will NEED it. Trump trying to play a country like a company is shameful. Countries are countries. Not this bullshit. Canada will stand hell or high water.

I am from Europe. Lithuania. I will say the opinion that is dominant in my country: Ex President Joe Biden was not the sharpest knife in the drawer because he is of a respectable age, but he was a smart politician, he respected his neighbors and the all of Europe respected him. Trump destroyed everything in one month, he acts like Putin by attacking his neighbors. We are stand with Ukraine and Canada. I hope one day to visit Canada for incredible natural beauty. ( if we Lithuanians don't have to go to war with Ruzzia )

Go Canada! Don’t negotiate with these lunatics. People voted for chaos, let’s see how they like it.

Go Canada! This is what a real leader looks like. Not watching Trumps address later. Why bother?

We will never back down. Elbows up Canada ? we will always be a free and Sovereign Country. ????? The USA doesn’t need my cereal grains….so I’ll sop up the 25% tariffs like pancakes and maple syrup. So proud of our Justin Trudeau ????

I'm from the UK and I stand with Canada. America should be absolutely ashamed of their president. Trump treats friendly countries like this, then rolls over and becomes nothing but Putin's little bitch. Trump is pathetic and Americans are disgraced by him and his lies.

If Putin is a murder? Then so is America? So is Ukraine? So is Palestine? So is Israel? In the 1990 Middle Eastern war USA ? tried so diligently to destroy the WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION!! ?? killing so many innocent people calling them terrorists. What do we call this action? GODLY ? Everyone is trying to show their power through Global Politics that they are greater than others and trying to rule every country in this world before fixing their own. Trudeau has brought Canada to poverty in his so called successful 2 terms government. He should think before he talks or like Hitler he should rehearse his speech in front of a mirror before opening his mouth in public, it's a whole lot of crap coming out in public and losing his sane ability. ?

Hey Trump, this is what a real leader looks like. As an American I'm so ashamed of our government. We love you Canada.

If he doesn't like tariffs put on him, then he shouldn't have tariffs on us . That's why Trump has put tariffs on Canada

A tariff from Canada of 25 percent to u.s.a. products is like taking a hair from a cat.

Sounds like CANADA IS NOT CLOSING THE BORDER. AMERICA NEEDS TO STOP GIVING THE WORLD FREE MONEY.

Fuck Canada lol. Never liked maple syrup anyway

I was a trump supporter from the uk and thought he would be a good thing because of all the corruption and not caring about its people that was going on from biden . just like whats happening in the uk not giving a dam about its people from labour But i think trump has done some idiot things backing Russia like there hes best mate doing this to Canada. It seems all trump cares about is money money money and and stabbing hes allies in the back.

The US almost sounds like Gilead. I’m so sad for Americans. I am a North American Indigenous person and live in Canada. Trump says he wants to make America great again and has only hurt the American people.

Yes Canada, you are like us Europeans. Let's stick together against the US.

Trump should thank his lucky stars that Justin is not like his dad who was one of Canada's greatest PM's & he did not take in BS. from anyone in fact if Justin was like his dad the bleep button would get worn out & in person the secret service would half to pull them a part because there would be fight .

Says the guy that told Trump when asked about the number one way the United States could hurt Canada would be through tariffs. PS - Oh no, $155B. What is that, like 4% of US imports? We will be fine. Go rip off someone else and fund your own defense.

I guess USA citizens and Trudeau simply aren't getting it, Trump wants these tariffs because he WANTS to tax the heck out of the ordinary US citizen in order to pay for his tax cuts for his Billionaire friends.....Canada could have COMPLETELY stopped Fentanyl trafficking and Trump STILL would have invoked tariffs.....just like no matter what Zelenskyy could do, he was determined to make an EXCUSE to stop supporting Ukraine's war efforts.......in addition, if you didn't know better, it appears that Trump wants to team up with Russia......??????

Wow, some do t like Trudeau but that’s a leader. Has 100% the back of canada. It’s about canada not anything else. Trump worries about nothing but trump. That’s the difference between us and the greedy USA. Oh, you have picked a fight with the wrong people……trust me on that. We are a country that stands together. We haven’t divided our country like trump has, we stand together.

I appreciate Prime Minister Trudeau! And I have much respect for Canada! ?? ? \nI’d like to see us recover relations with our allies and strengthen communication so we all can work together toward peaceful resolutions. This will help trade as well as climate concerns. \nIt Certainly Can Be Done! We must bring the best communicators to the table. \n(And begin with prayer because all peace begins with God!) ??️?

Maybe that Donald guy is just taking his revenge on America first.\nHe already stated that Canada and Mexico are to be annexed and we all agree that he's doing everything he said so far, literally. If he really moves his 100k+ troops out of Europe as he said I bet my ass that these soldiers are going straight to the U.S. borders, just like Russia did moments before invading Europe. I assume he'll stop there, anyway. Otherwise it means I'm in a coma at hospital right now, and all of this is a weird fever dream.

Trudeau was, before Trump's second term, deeply unpopular and on his way out.\n\nOnly a numptie like Trump can make Canada's most unpopular PM in decades popular again.

Most Americans stand with Canada ?? we apologize for our president who suffers from ‘LDS’ he’s just a said pathetic human do what you must. Do not be bullied by a little man like Trump smack him down.

NO, NO, NO!!! NOT FRIEND\nUK, Europe, Australia and Canada's Governments are corrupt and cowardice they are collapsing by allowing Communist, Progressivism, illegals, Islamic hords and they have lost any decent value by stooping to the lowest Liberalism/Progressivism. They allow Muslims to murder and rape while treating their own citizens like criminals for speaking out against it... This is a treasonous Communist dictatorship and should be dissolved before the UK gives the evil Islamic state access to their nukes.

Trudeau is as corrupt as they come. He pretends to stand up for Canada, but as soon as the fight starts he will run and hide just like the coward he is. He isn't doing anything to make this country better. He knows his days are limited. It's all fake, he is fake.

Such an elegant speaker. So Adult!! Not like the “old infant” we have here in the states “acting out.” And ruining our country. We have a child in the oval office, throwing tantrums. We are doomed as long as he’s there. We stand with you, Canada!

You should have done all the changes long before Donald told you. It’s like you reacting when the shit hits the fan. We don’t need you Canada ?.

Sorry, Canada. There are United States citizens who actually respect and like you all except Drake.

as a Canadian, i would like to thank Donald and Elon for their plans to implement the most innovative degrowth agenda imaginable. why dance around the edges like Canada has with its consumer carbon tax that rebated more money to most citizens than they spent on carbon taxes ? no, the DOGE solution to addressing climate change is much better .. just cripple the three north american economies with tariffs, put hundreds of thousands of citizens out of work, and make the Trump tax cuts permanent so that the federal government is broke as well. no more money means no more spending or consuming .. it's a win for the entire planet !!

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.

What an amazing Primeminister! I almost want to move to Canada! this is what a leader looks like!

CANADA YOY ARE LIKE A ANT ? AMERICA IS LIKE A ELEPHANT ? ELEPHANT CRUSHES AND ANT ? YALL WILL SAY UNCLE SOON WE ARE GETTING CANADA AND GREENLAND AND PANAMA AND MEXICO JUSTIN DONALD TRUMP IS GOING TO GIVE YOU A SPANKING JUSTIN SETTLE DOWN

America now has an illiterate, severerly nearsighted, reactionary, child- like buffoon as President. Apologies to Canada, I wish we had a President like Trudeau.

Yes this move does look like it could be connected to Putin. If Canada financially struggle then they can't help if needed with the war in Ukraine which is a plus for Putin. Bad move Trump US could be left out in the cold in future if he starts doing this to his allies and siding with Russia. Wake up Trump you're going down the wrong Path.

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

Quit acting like this is a guy who Canadians actually like. Trudeau is massively unpopular and will be gone very soon, when the new Prime Minister of Canada is put in place there will be a deal. Canada has run wild for far too long getting the best of us in every way now that it is fair they act as if they have been doing us favors all along when it has been the other way around.

We need a leader like this! There is no legitimate reason for the tariffs. I now believe Trumps goal is to annex Canada. At first, I thought it was a joke, but not anymore. Stand with Canada, Ukraine and Mexico!

Being an American, I am EMBARRASED by what Trump has done. This is NOT how you treat a friend like Canada, and a partner in this world. Trump is an a$$hole and he must be stopped! \nI will consider you a friend and ally forever and what is being done makes absolutely NO sense! Orange Felon is not making sense! He's delusional and stupid. Go Canada!! Don't take this crap from Orange Felon! We'll take care of that POS POTUS and make him pay dearly for what he has done!

We're with you Canada. We don't want this, either. Because you are a gentleman, like all presidents should be, you can't call him what he really is, a bully, spoiled brat, and incompetent Douch bag. Unfortunately we don't have a gentleman in the White House.

I think finally Canada realized that if they have friend like US then they don't need any enemy. You can't trust US at all and need to start open your market for global trade. I am glad that finally this happened cause sometimes you need a slap on face to wake up from a cozy bogus dream. Yes it will be painful few years for Canada but when time will come for fresh water and Arctic resources, it will be payback time to US. Forget US and start shipping products to Europe, China and India. Make pacts and create meaningful relationships and let US do whatever they feel like doing because ultimately Canada is the 2nd biggest landmass in the world, 3rd biggest supply of oil, 5th biggest supply of natural gas, 1st in the world for supply of potash and uranium, If you include Great lakes then it has 4 coasts that can tie them with water so great opportunity to create best ports, 1st in natural source of water and 5th biggest agricultral landmass. Then why bother and put your energy into someone who don't care. Let US do whatever they like and forget about them. Just don't go to US and don't deal with US.

....TRUMP IS PUTTING MILLIONS OF AMERICANS OUT OF WORK. AND PRICES WILL GO UP.\nPUTIN AND RUSSIA WILL BE VERY HAPPY WITH THIS.\nRUSSIA AIMS NUKES AT AMERICA WHILE TRUMP TREATS HIS FRIENDS LIKE CANADA AS THE ENEMY.\nWAKE UP PEOPLE....

Trudumb, a friend dose not take and never return generosity. The current administration is just demonstrating how much of the American tax dollars go to Canada. About $300B, sounds like you all get more than any US state. \n\nFYI: Canada has the best fence in the world…it’s called the United States of America!!!
