“I am Canadian, and I support Trump because our leaders are a joke. They delay pipelines, restrict the open market, and refuse to trust foreign investment from China or overseas. Instead of strengthening the economy, they bring in a million immigrants while ignoring real growth. If we’re going to rely on America anyway, we should join it becoming the 51st state would make North America stronger.\nIf Canada retaliates against the U.S., it won’t be the government that suffers it’ll be us. Our leaders look weak and desperate. \nWith 25% tariffs, Canada is heading for economic disaster. Companies are moving to America, jobs are disappearing, and our future is at risk. Look at Europe 23 countries share the euro and open borders. We should do the same by becoming 51st state.\nIt’s time to negotiate with Trump and secure real benefits more businesses, better telecom, cheaper flights, lower food costs, affordable housing, a shared currency, and the right to bear arms. Canada would be stronger and wealthier as part of America.”?? ??????\nWe are still Canadians

Australia supports Canada ?? Australia ?? supports Ukraine ??. Putin and Trump are out of line .

I am American, and Trump doesn't represent me. I support Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, and any allied country this tyrannical American president attacks.

As an American and Veteran I am just sickened by what this dictator trump is doing. You do what you need to do Canada because there is no reasoning with that moron in chief! I will always support you Canada ??

As a US citizen I fully support what Trump is doing. \n\nOh and these tariffs will hurt Canada far more than they will hurt America and we know that.\n\nCanadians better start controlling their border soon.

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

Gas and groceries and everything cost the same gas is actually cheaper!!! A bunch of CNN Leftist propaganda!!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!! GOD BLESS TRUMP AND STANDING UP FOR US TRUE AMERICANS!!! ALL YOU CNN SUPPORTERS AND BOTS COMMENTING PLEASE MOVE TO CANADA:)

Trump talks about peace, but only causes unrest and chaos. Shame on his supporters. Putin is happy.\nIn Germany we say: The madness has its limits - Mexico and Canada

I am a proud South African ??. I stand with and support the brave people of Canada as well as the honest and sensible citizens of the U.S.A who look at the facts and see that the actions of Donald Trump are nothing but childish antics that hurt Americans more than anyone else.

support and strenght to Canada ?? Trump is a disgrace for all humanity . Italy is with you???

The only Americans that Canada hates are the ones who support and voted for Trump and MAGA.

Why are Canadian cities overflowing with homeless and drug addicts, crime up, homes/apartment unaffordable? Same in USA....I do not support trump, nor did I vote for him.....but hey, Trudeau destroyed Canada.......society is unraveling. This is simply another example.

Well done Canada, the UK is so proud of you fighting off the Bully that is president Trump, who is turning his back your back against the world, whilst supporting the war criminal Putin. Listen to the world America Trump is the person causing all these problems for you. Do something about him, Vance and Musk.

I am a retired U.S. Marine. I love the United States and I recognize Russia as a mortal enemy. I cannot support President Musk and Vice President tRump. I stand with Canada and Ukraine. America is the aggressor against our friends in Canada, I am ashamed. Just know that most of the United States stands with Canada and Ukraine even though some voted for the tangerine menace.

Unfortunately, in this speech, all J. Trudeau has shown is that Canada can be forced to implement irrational and costly programs (fentanyl/border security) while otherwise listing off every reason the United States has for annexing Canada. Canadian vulnerability is on full display and there are going to be plenty of famous ex-pats and wealthy citizens, who are already silent, and will soon be quietly, then vocally, supporting it. The Trump administration doesn't think Canada is a legitimate country and unlike Mexico, they feel it can absorb its demographic easily. This is how Anschluss works.

I'm from Canada, Trump wants to destroy us, he is a bully, Trump deserves everything he gets and I hope it hurts him good.I am very touched to see the support of the world for Canada thank you's

I support Canada, I have researched their border actions and its true what the Prime minister says, again says Trump lies

Donald Duck Trump MESS IT ALL UP! THIS OLD ORANGE MAN was voted by the blinded Americans. He's a puppet of a dictator. A cowardly leader who doesn't deserve the position in the oval office. He's full of greed and selfishness. Your GREAT KARMA WILL COME SOON!☝️☝️☝️\nBlame all of these to TRUMP, JD VANCE, ELON MUSK and their American supporters. You will reap what you sow. It may not be now, but in the future.☝️ You'll regret what you did.\n\n???I WILL STAND FOR MY COUNTRY, CANADA! WE ARE THE TRUE NORTH, STRONG AND FREE NATION. THE ENTIRE CANADIAN PEOPLE, AND ALL OTHER NATIONS AGAINST THE NARCISSIST IN THE OVAL OFFICE.

Uk citizen totally support Canada hope our prime minister follows suit and calls out Trumps vandalism and the his damage to Uk and European relations with him. Still love the US but not this tinpot Dictator. American friends Dump Trump he is and will keep dumping all over you

Those US citizens who did not vote for tRump and we support Canada. My husband is a retired Airborne Ranger who worked cooperatively with military personnel from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, and other democratic countries around the world. We are just sick about how tRump has treated our allies. He is a bully and a draft dodging coward. We don’t blame any of our NATO allies who apply pressure through tariffs, etc to give tRump the consequences he deserves for his bad behavior. He is hurting the US country and its citizens, being cruel to their people lower income US citizens. Middle and lower class US citizens are going to be suffering under his US as he is trying to get rid of every program that helps us live with dignity. He is hurting our farmers. We know that he is a narcissistic psychopath. Most of us can’t wait until he and JD Vance are out of office, and hopefully in prison. They don’t care how many US citizens they hurt with their greedy megalomaniac agenda. We are sorry that our administration is being so unreasonable and hope you can forgive the rest of the US citizens that never wanted this situation with you and our other NATO allies.

All my support from France to Canada. Democracies that are true to their values need to neuter Trump. There is no other way. Being a felon, a fraud and a sexual predator wasn't enough. He also had to become a threat to the world order that has stood firm since 1945. He and his boss Putin belong in jail.

Well said Mr. Trudeau. I come from Germany and would like to support Canada. An appeal to the German government: import more Canadian products.\n\nOh, and by the way: how many languages ​​does Mr. Trump actually speak?

Canada will not just roll over for this. They'll fight back with higher tariffs on the US. I SUPPORT CANADA. Trump is a douche bag.

I’m an American (I’m embarrassed to say) but I am proud to say I completely oppose Trump & Musk’s plan to turn us into or over to Russia. They are in alliance with the corrupt project 2025 and Putin. They are traitors to America. Sadly the world must not trust them. They LIE. They are actively destroying the USA. Trump and Musk need to rule Mars. DEPORT BOTH OF THEM TO SPACE. I support Canada, Gaza, Greenland and Mexico. I WOULD DEPORT TRUMP AND MUSK IF I COULD. They are CRIMINALS and have no legitimacy in my America. Dirty Traitors.

Well done Trudeau and Canada. trump is a cancer on the planet and only idiots support him

Trudeau is wasting his time. There are millions of Americans who support Canada and Trudeau does not need to explain anything to them. The rest of the Americans are the idiots who support Trump and they will never change their minds no matter how much they get hurt by tariffs.

One disagreement Mr Trudeau: Trump is “very smart guy”? Nope. He certainly is “clever” which is what delineates smart from “criminal con man”. Clever is what he uses for his grift, with American citizens and the national stage as his target market, to line his pockets along with the pockets of his cronies, the ultra rich. The bright note is that there is a huge collective of Americans who see Trump for what he is. We are NOT supportive of any of this nonsense since 1/20/2025. Musk/Trump/Vance are an embarrassment we did not vote for. We stand with Ukraine, Canada, and Mexico who echo normal reason.

Trudeau is exactly right, tRump has decided to hurt the people of the US, whether you voted for him or not. Canada is exactly right to react as they have, not just tariffs but all the boycotts they have started.\nThank you Canada for all your past support as we hope that we can return to being a good neighbor to you one day soon!

Thank you Canada trump don’t care about the American people but you fighting back is the only way to oust trump and we are already suffering from his behavior. Thank you for supporting President Zelenskyy he loves his people and their country. God bless you your country has a great prime minister

As a American i support Trump and the taxes Canada has allowed the chinese ccp in their country has been practicing a unfair trade on the Americans for many years now finally someone standing up Trump 2024

I am from New York ?? but I am standing with Canada ?? all the way ? I am not supporting Trump or did I ever voted for this orange piece of $#*+. Trump voters and fanatics you are the blame for your ignorance. So go ahead cry on social media for your mistakes and ignorance you will never get a sympathy from me ever. I am done and I am standing on my business.

Lets get it started. I support president Trump. America has been taken advantage for so long. Canada has been a back door for China to move illegal products and people into the Us. You are owned by China. Your economy sucks, you cannot afford this trade war against us. Your border is not safe. Your military contribution is the bottom of the list. You keeps blaming us for buying your oil? Now, you can keep it.

I know americans that dont support trump will have to pay for this but its time to BOYCOTT america everyone... unfortunately this is the point that needs to be proven. the world doesnt need another dictator. I fully Support Canada!

Canadian here..im praying for my friends in the U.S. who didn't vote for trump..thany you ? for your support for Canada ..with love ❤ ????????????????????

Didn't vote for Trump, will never support the GOP again. I'm with you Canada. All true Americans are. Trump belongs in jail, Musk should be deported.

Trump is a national disgrace. He needs to go... And as a once proud American, I also support our friends in Canada.?

Europe take note we’re next. Kick Trump where it hurts. Support Canada. Stop USA aggression.

America stand with us canada. Join our sides stand together America and canada both against trump. I would said against Justin too. Want see America to support our new future president is Pierre.

Please understand that not all American people support trump. Not all of us support Russia. ALOT of us support Canada and Ukraine!!!!

It's really important that Canada and the rest of the world understand only a slight majority supports Queen Trump and King Musk there's a huge chunk of the country a little less than half that does not agree nor support that imbecile

Shame and lies. It's time usa to ditch those support terrorist and shake hand with Russia. Trump needs to lift trade ban with Russia. Russia and usa needs to join and fight against terrorism. Canada uk has become terrorist hub

Im from South Africa ?? and i support Canada ?? Donald Trump is Right Wing Extremist Bully

Trudeau and the liberals were way underwater. Trump could have had a right wing ally in Canada, but Trump has managed to enrage everyone in Canada so much they are probably going to support a liberal gov't that will resist the US. Good!

People from America (and I mean de continent) check the labels before you buy and support Canada and Mexico over USA products every time you can. Trump needs a lesson of how support and partnership is way better than the nonsense he is doing.

Trump is literally a moron. People of Canada, please know that the American people do NOT support Trump or his Tariffs.

That lady simply lied and tried to twist reality. Trudeau didnt say anything Anti-American. She means anti-white supremacist....trudeau is saying America is not going to use them but mistreating at the same time. Canada is right. Protect yourselves. People in America will see that supporting Trump is GUARANTEED TO FAIL. its just a matter of time.

From Scotland... we support Canada / Ukraine...WE HATE RACISTS AND WE HATE TRUMP ...

i am Canadian.....\n\ni am embarrassed by trump and feel for my American brothers..... i want to know what the end game is for trump - if he feels he gonna bully Canada or other nations he has grossly underestimated those that have supported the US through thick and thin...\n\nif his end game is under cutting NATO - he should review history and realize that the only country that ever requested helps officially under NATO was the US which we in Canada offered no questions asked...\n\nall i say to my Amercian brothers, his term is only 4yrs - we will welcome you back into the fold when this nonsense with Trump is over... I just hope that my politicians dont cause any nonsense and toe the line in being professional...

This has nothing to do with fentanyl. Trump wants Canada's rare earth minerals. He's trying to destroy Canada so he can support his AI Ambitions.

It’s honestly such a disgusting feeling to be an American right now. I love my country and many of its people but the trump administration is tarnishing this country and making it an embarrassment across the globe. I feel powerless and angry. I hope for the best and I fully support this response Canada.
