When is anyone going to end this? Anyone?!!\nThe entire world is suffering under a single delusional narcissist. I don't think there are any serious politicians in the US, on both sides, who would support tariffs if they were not under his thumb. The entire GOP has relinquished responsibility and logic. No democracy can survive with that level of spinelessness.

To all Canadians, all Europeans, just know there are tens of millions of Americans who do not agree with, nor do we support, the current occupants of the White House, and we never will. We Americans stand firmly with you, with Canada, with Mexico, with Denmark, and especially with Ukraine. Love and blessings to you all. God save American Democracy, and the United States of America, from the malignant growth known as the MAGA movement that has taken over the Republican Party.

From America, the world really acts like we owe them something.\n\nWe get called imperialists when we help, cowards and weaklings when we don’t, we get reprimanded and shit on about how we should get our nose out of everyone’s business. The rest of the world seems to have a hate boner for the US yet can’t even be bothered to figure out how to not start new world wars, can’t even be bothered to take in and handle their own refugees, can’t even be bothered to help your own people.\n\nWe The People are growing real tired of our treatment on the world stage. Furthermore, we have our own issues. We have to focus on our own country and people, because as it stands many of us are struggling to figure out how to pay rent without picking up 2nd jobs or side hussle’s. Please understand this, we voted for Donald Trump. Flaws and all. He didn’t cheat or steal his way in. He isn’t a threat to democracy, or the stability of Europe. He’s and American president for America and if any non Americans wanna take issue with that. Then come get your citizenship and vote for it, but until then, stop crying about what America is doing and focus on your own country. Who knows, if you do your own country might actually be notable enough for you to understand my frustrations :)

Got to consider if Trump is doing this to empower Russia and ultimately China. Something serious is about to happen which one single crazy has the power to start which is mad in a so called democracy society.

Donald Trump the world most dictator and democracy destroyed

America thanks Trudeau for standing up to a fascist and for democracy in general! Thank you! The majority of us want your help and are against this regime.

@CNN — Have you got your head out of your A$$ or are you still simping for oligarchs? Do you serve democracy or your shareholders?

Canada is strongly anti fascist:\n1) we are against rascism and try to fight that human tendency\n2) we believe in religious tolerance and we don't fear secular views\n3) we honour our intelligent and hard working women \n4) we don't worship cult leaders who prey on our fears\n5) we are happy to live financially comfortably but don't worship the dollar\n6) we honour our military but worship peace\n7) we love our country fiercely but respect others and see their strengths\n8) we respect rather than fear sexually diverse persons\n9) we try to understand different perspectives of history\n10) we believe in equity and truth rather than Darwinian power (might is right?-no)\n11) we believe in a social democracy that pools its taxes and provides for all citizens

Not all Americans support communist countries but I think there all right we should be fighting for our freedom for all And get rid of communism we all don't need to buying Chinese which is a communist country products we need make our own with democracy together

I am so sorry Canada, and all the countries of NATO. The smart people in the USA did not cast our votes for MAGA. Please let us all hope we can impeach him and get back to the not perfect, however, loved DEMOCRACY we were and are.

All Americans 99% support Europeans allies ,only one person in White House “to make decisions dumb” I am with you Canada ❤❤❤ T and JD destroyed Democracy

America's president is a low functioning narcissistic sociopath His tool box consist of threats blackmail bribery corruption as a kelptocradic dictionary ragiem His hostile takeover of America's country and economy unstableld security and alliances Are Acts that, mimicking Russian authorityen governing system Trump is a threat to Americans Faith honor dignity ethics and Life's desires He spoke of a GRATE country And it's betterment. His actions show the opposite He HASE made a path to collapse Are economy and prosperity stole the county's Treasury and perralized Americans democracy. He's threats blackmail and corrupt fraudulent methods HASE isolation of America's country from Are allies and befriend and give comfort to ARE ENAMEYS. This is not in the interest of America's country stop Trump's treasonous administration.

Thank you PM Trudeau. Fight for democracy and our freedoms. ❤

It's never been about fentanyl. It's about ending democracy and installing a puppet government for putin and the russians.

We know why HE is doing this. He is pushing an imperialistic agenda, so he can be like those he admires. He's hoping that Canada will bend at the knee and give in so that he can claim Canada as a 51st state. But guess what? That won't happen. He's just doing himself and his country harm. He doesn't care about you, or me, or us as two countries that have always worked together. But we are setting up border security to keep American drugs, and weapons, and illegal migrants from coming into Canada. We're going to have to survive by reverting our trade to elsewhere, to depend on ourselves, to boycott U.S. products. We may be nice, but we are also tough. We love our society, our democracy, and our benefits. We won't give that up. Growing up, I lived in South Western Ontario, I used to go back and forth from Canada to the U.S. with no issues. Now, I'm sad to say, I won't ever be going to the U.S. again. Let's all hope for a brighter future for both countries.

From Pennsylvania and I gave Much respect for Canada. Don’t back down Canada. Democracy needs you now more than never.

Wait, doesn’t he realize that destroying our institutions, safety and health, firing hundreds of thousands of Americans, stealing their private data, and social security, destroying the economy and our global security…and now, imposing insane tariffs on our allies to further destroy our economy is all destroying people’s lives, the economy and our democracy? Uhmm, YEAH, THATS THE F__KING POINT. But you’re definitely not going to glean that from corporate news media.

How does Trump understand democracy: you the pee pole...

The Trump doctrine: Make friends with dictators and fight democracy

canadian people even we are from developing country , i don't wheather it counts for you or not but i am in support with you, because the reason is that the nation which taught us democracy , human rights , sustainability of world to make it green , prosperous have left us behind .We will also contribute you should lead the whole world??

Well 25% tariffs from Mexico and 25 % from Canada, You Americans, for your own good and for democracy better impeach your president and his people.

Now THAT'S a real leader of the free world. No russian asset, here! Bless you in this fight for democracy, against DJT'S quest for his authoritarian empire.

That is real leader! Justin we love you even Europe. Not that bully in the oval office. US Americans wake up and fight for your freedom and democracy!

Trump should be tried for treason. He is clearly a Russian asset, or at least some other asset than our own. Every day he makes moves to dismantle our democracy. To destroy this country. To rob the American people of their jobs, lives, and dignity. TRUMP DOES NOT WORK FOR US. Now wants his face on the 100 dollar bill?! He must be insane, and is not fit to serve this country.

Orange boy and his regime are criminals and thugs. Its time for the World of democracies to join together and teach them a lesson.

Democracies never go to war with one another Donald Trump is proving this wrong

So CNN hows the both sidesism to please dear leader working out for we the people? You have proven that a buck is worth more than democracy. The king has no clothes and the media jesters have no moral compass.

THANK YOU CANADA. WE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE IN GRAVE TROUBLE. OUR GOVERNMENT HAS WAGED A WAR AGAINST US.WE ARE COMING OUT OF SHOCK, DENIAL,TRAUMA AND MOVING TOWARD ANGER,MOTIVATION,\nUNITY AND FIGHT FOR OUR DEMOCRACY, OUR FREEDOM, RIGHTS AND WELLBEING. WEVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A TAKE OVER OF OUR COUNTRY. WE ARE IN FEAR AND HOPE YOU CAN SOMEDAY FORGIVE US.\n\nGOD BLESS AMERICA DURING THIS HORRIFIC TIME IN HISTORY. TIME FOR ACTION NOW.

As a Proud Canadian, I love my American Friends; but the MAGA MORONS and Republicans are destroying and dismantling your Democracy before our eyes. Seems you have been taken over by Putin's Propaganda Campaign!

I have nothing but the up most respect for all of Canada....Trump and his goons are destroying the US democracy. My heart is so heavy. Trump needs to go along with his whole administration!!! They are destroying us!!!

The world is going to make Trump a 2nd class leader. Every country that stands for democracy shouldn’t let Trump fly into their airspace, or let him come to your country. The countries that have laws that don’t let felons into their countries should apply these laws to Trump, you need to show Trump that enough is enough, and you will not bend to his mafia style of governing. If he our you need to communicate it should be done over a secure video communication, and record it in case Trump threatens you, your country, or if he just goes off the rails in general. If he does threaten you, or your country, or goes off the rails you need to broadcast it to the world. There is strength in numbers, and if the US politicians won’t stand up to Trump, then the rest of the world needs to do so.

This idiotic game by the Trump-Vance gang only makes sense if they are in fact (hidden behind the pseudo-nationalist MAGA nonsense) working for Putin. And if they want to destroy our Western democracies, also in the interests of Putin. And China is the laughing third party.

Is USA really a democracy when 1 man can ruin the centuries long friendship between 2 countries...

Hey Trump. You keep saying you want Peace. Try supporting your allies and stand up for Democracies being attacked by Communists, instead of supporting Communist Dictators who commit atrocities.

The Americans got what they voted for! It's called Democracy! Just let the US go down the chosen path as dictated by PROJECT 2025 and let the Americans group up with DPRK, Russia and Iran. The rest of the free world, the civilized world move on with maintaining the the civilized maintenance of Democracy!

I am A Vietnam Veteran , Jan-Dec 1967 , and am A True Blue American Patriot who loves America with Every Ounce Of My Being !!!!! That being said , what Donald Trump and his Traitorous Conspirators are doing to Our Neighbors , Both Canada and Mexico , is A Travesty Beyond anything An American President has EVER DONE in Our History !!!! My belief is that Trump is A Russian Asset who is doing everything he can to Tear Apart Our American Democracy , to give Vladimir Putin An Open Door to America !!!! Trump is A TRAITOR TO AMERICA , MAKE NO MISTAKE !!!! Prepare yourselves for America`s 2nd Civil War !!! IT IS COMING !!!!! You can laugh all you want , but you won`t be laughing when you begin to hear Gunshots ringing out in Your Neighborhood !!! The ONLY THING that will convince Trump he made A HUGE MISTAKE is Americans armed to The Teeth standing outside of The White House , ready to rip him out of it by force !!!! He has Underestimated Americans Resolve !!!! REAL AMERICANS `` WILL NOT STAND BY `` while he systematically Shreds our Democracy , and Names Himself THE KING OF AMERICA !!!! ITS TIME FOR WAR AMERICA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau. Unfortunately Donald Trump will destroy the US. Canada will grow stronger without US. It is regrettable that the current Trump administration is destroying the strong relationships between US with Mexico, Canada, Europe, UK, China, Middle East and Africa. Canada will always stand for democracy, freedom and justice even if this current administration refuses to do so. US and Canada has fought WWI, WWII, Korean war, Vietnam war, Iraq war, Afghanistan war together. As brothers in arms both have fought, bleed together against fascism. What Donald is doing in the US is as close as it gets to fascism in America. During this difficult time in American history more than ever America needs to trust in God. God bless America land of the free home of the brave. Let's pray that God will intervene through prayer to bring America to depend on Him once more.

Love you and Canada. Thank you for trying to protect democracy on our planet.

Canada stand with Pride, we support you and unfortunately Trump needs to learn a lesson and may all his Maga idiots see him for what he is and wake up! God be with Canada, Mexico and the USA! If you stand against Trump you stand on the side of good and democracy and we support that!

Thanks to everyone who Voted for the Rapist..you just Screwed yourselves and the rest of the American people..wake up, this is not NORMAL BEHAVIOR OF A DEMOCRACY

Please accept my apology. Not all America supports Trump and his efforts to smear our image which has always stood up for Democracy. Trump is so wrong for leadership of the Free World. God bless Canada which is courageous to stand up agains’t Trump and Putin when American seem to be totally confused about where their loyalty should remain.

USA cuts itself off from the entire Western world and cuddles up to dictators. The oldest and most honorable democracy in the world, the USA, should be ashamed of itself! Regards from Germany

We need a leader as intelligent and capable as Justin Trudeau. Canada, standing their ground may be our best chance to impeach the disgusting dictator in our country. Canada? Are you ready to accept any Democracy loving Americans who want to escape fascism? We would love to be Canadians!??

Please accept my apology. Not all America supports Trump and his efforts to smear our image which has always stood up for Democracy. Trump is so wrong for leadership of the Free World. God bless Canada which is courageous to stand up agains’t Trump and Putin when American seem to be totally confused about where their loyalty should remain.

Trump is aligned with Putin. He's an enemy of the American people, an enemy of Western democracy, and an enemy of humanity as a whole.

As a Canadian I stand with President Trump. Castro Jr. has done everything possible over the last 9 years to destroy our once great country. This ?is just another WEF shill who hates democracy.

I’m American. Never voted for the MAGA party - it’s all too obvious. Sickening by the way Zelenskyy was treated in our White House - TRump and Vance looked primitive and devolved when they desperately tried to look “strong”. We stand with democracy.

President Trudeau, Black America believes every word you're saying. We have always fought for this country even though this country has never fought for us. It is White America that is tearing down this democracy to maintain white supremacy. White America has done this. The numbers don't lie. Unfortunately, all Americans will suffer.

The US is one of the world's greatest democracies, currently run by a group of narcissists who only care about their own interests, who only want the caos.. At this dark moment for the US, I think the world needs the American people to speak out and be true to their values.

Put trump and the GOP in prison! Save American democracy. \n\nTexas stands with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, and Europe.
