Let's make US down.

Canada's tariffs on the U.S. will hurt us more than them, we get more ìm items from them than they get from us. Trump is an idiot.

What exports do usa sell around the globe? Coca cola, Macdonald/fast food. Garbage fatty food. Automobiles, all shit. , clothing, all cheap nasty crap. No one byesLevi's, nike, polo , say goodbye to Burberry, gucci, d&d McQueeni could go on in the thousandsof brands. US OIL , SHALE OIL, poor quality, shit beer, shit wine, shit whiskey etc etc . OPEC WONT CAVE. CANADA already, stopping Electric from Canada to Northern US stares. Already crops dying on the vine, etc because the workers have bee deported. And now he stop aid, to Ukraine. Europe, Uk, Commonwealth Countries, increases nations every day now, is turning it/ their backs. What shame, truly a shame.

Donald wants to hurt Canada so they vote out Justin because he hates Justin. He want conservatives in Canada to come into power so they can bend over in front of Donald and ultimately destroy Canadian economy and the US can take possession of all of Canadian resources. I'm just waiting for Donald's funeral.

What has the US done to protect Canada from us at our borders?

Trump is an agent under Putin influence, he's undermining the US to destroy our economic might, everything is done deliberately,and the dumb Maga movement is behind it all project 2025

We have a child as a US president he's a bully, narcissistic, racist and a criminal we are in serious trouble. God protect us from this evil in Jesus Name

Trudeau has done more damage to Canada than the US tarrifs ever could

From Texas, standing with Canada because our country will not stand for us!

This is really what we need in the US, someone who is doing what he says and not falling apart as a country. Come on yall, get rid of the cheeto president.

Uber has been very slow in Boston. It looks like no tourists visiting us anymore. It's sucks???

US citizen here and I despise the dumpster. Cripple the dumpster for the monster that he is! His base will turn on him and force him out of office!!! The dumpster is knowingly putting America's national security at risk and that is TREASON!!!

As a Canadian… this man is a moron. Tariffs are taxes. \n\nHe taxes us to death. 1) We have 13% sales tax. \n2) We have 53.53% in income tax. \n3) Average property tax of $7k a year. \n4) 50% capital gains tax\n5) 10% luxury tax on new cars, boats and aircraft\n\n\nHe wants to add more Carbon taxes. \n\nAnd yet, he makes a big fuss over this.\n\nIDIOT.

As an American it’s great to stand with Canada and we should support them, but we need to stand up for ourselves here in the US, we can’t let this happen to our country… what have we become?

Most Americans do not want this either. There is NO words to explain how most of us feel.

Could the US become Canada’s Eleventh province?

God help us so many Americans are against Trump!

President Trump is isolating everyone who is US close allies. Bravo.

Trump is the worst dictator in the US history and he is destroying our economy and democracy at the same time…

I am so ashamed of our country. Trump has ruined us as a strong country. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, and Mexico.

As long as this crazy US President ?the world are not peaceful place

Honest question has there been any discussion about the amount of support of Trump in your community that’s if you’re from the US

Trudeau you stick to your own country. \nWe elected Trump. Let us worry about us. \nStart helping your own. \nGood luck, Canadaians. We want to help you rid yourself of him.❤❤loves from America

Leave us alone. didn't your resign? you are the reason that this happened.

US need to be a shame of it self to let an idiot like trump lead them anywhere

All countries from this point forward should quit trading with the US in any way whatsoever let them survive on their own let them come up with their own chips let them come up with their own minerals let them come up with everything everybody else deal and trade with one another around the world and just let the states rot

The world has to prepare for the world without trade with the US.

You tax us we tax you say the whole truth

Good for you, Trudeau! Trump despises the vast majority of Americans and happily destroys our lives. Thank you for standing up to his cruelty and stupidity. Canadians are lucky to have you and your intelligent cohort fighting against our monstrous president. And many of us truly admire you & your partners.

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

Native Floridian in the US here sending big hugs out to Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau, Ukraine and President Zelenskyy, and Mexico and La Presidenta Claudia Sheinbaum❣️ I wish my one vote and activism had been enough to stop the re-election of such a horrid, arrogant individual back into our WH. It all makes sense if he is aligning us with Russia

Awe, did Justin miss the latest Taylor Swift concert. America wants to become an Industrialized nation again and not depend on other countries to supply us goods. America doesn't need Canadas Socialism, Kick Rocks Justin.

I'm a Canadian who has always voted for Prime Minister Trudeau and I will continue to vote liberal. I heard a person on the Jake Tapper, C NN, this afternoon say all the companies are coming to the USA not Canada, he didn't mention that they come because they don't have to pay a lot of taxes. Us Canadians take great offense that the spawn of the devil wants to annex our country and he refers to our Prime Minister as governor. The orange dumb criminal and his maggots would probably give part of our country to snakehead war tyrant putin who has interest in the Artic and that would involve Greenland. We Canadians don't want to make life difficult for the American people but the dumb evil cheeto likes tariffs. President Zelenski didn't start the war and he won't be the one to start WW3. putin is a war criminal who controls the criminal organization in the White House and it's leader. President Zelenski be careful the spawn of the devil ? and war tyrant can't be trusted. ?????

US Americans - get your pathetic orange bully wannabe-king under control! \nGet him out of office! Not in four years - NOW!\nHe is the worst thing that could happen to you and all your friends and allies! The whole free world! \nHe is a traitor working for the worst of the worst on this planet!\nAnd it is YOUR duty to remove him and his minions from office!\n\nGeneral strike! Now!

We’re on your side Canada … sooooo embarrassed for my country… please remember hardly none of us want this. Pray for the citizens of USA ❤?????

Don't worry about us worry about your own people we trust our president Donald Trump America first

Wake up before it's too late Americans! Trump is a puppet of Russia. He's going to bankrupt the country and then when the people take to the streets he's going to impose a National Marshal law and sign an executive emergency order where he takes over the entire US government as a dictator.

So nice to hear a national leader speak so eloquently and coherently. He did not use any bullying or condescending words. Standing for Canada and loving America. Trump is for Putin instead of America's friends. This is really sad. Wake up America! What has happened to us?

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!

Trump wants a former KGB agent as his bud?Donnie Putin wants us to go down.

For this reason they to go for russia since US is making also enemies in the neighborhood.

It's gonna hurt all of us. : ( The economy was coming back around since Covid. By the end of 2024, I felt it and was feeling optimistic I can't believe this is happening now. Ugh.

I stand for the citizens of Canada, but this man has RUINED your country…Trump is right! Canada has benefited from the US financially while we have payed the brunt of most of the costs.

To the rest of the world: As an American citizen, I just want to say that I'm sorry our population was dumb enough put an incompetent, fascist, narcissistic conman fuckhead into the white house where he could screw everything and everyone (us included) up. Not all of us voted for this or want this. Not all of us are dumb enough to fall for his bullshit.

Maga people think Trump is their friend. Canada and the US have been friends for 150 years as long as he thinks people have been collecting social security. Now that trump is in office a heel turn, actually he was always the villain turns the Americans friends and sides with American enemies. At this point if you still follow him you've got stockholm syndrome.

Meanwhile the US Healthcare Industry creates more fentanyl addicts DAILY than even any cartel can satisfy. America benefits from all the laundered money these cartels have. But everyone else is the problem.

Canada and the US have two different governments. But we are, in reality, ONE people.\nThe majority of US citizens, both those who voted for and those who did not vote for Trump, oppose tariffs on our Canadian ancestors.

Your are wrong lady Us will loose and get hurt more than Canada.

Why are some commentators still talking about fentanyl & immigration as if it has anything to do with whats going on. a psychotic, narcissistic loon who hasn't the faintest clue about government, whose ambition is self enrichment and whose instincts are sel aggrandizement has been elected to the leadership of a country where his unique combination of idiocy, incompetence, insanity, deranged maliciousness and need to exact vengeance on those he feels failed to defer to him sufficiently (or just randomly, to assert himself) can do the most damage. Sure Trump is a fascist, but he's much, much worse: He is totally insane. What do the congressional Republicans tell their children, families and friends about why they're bowing to a clear and dangerous psychooath utterly devoid of human decency ? How do they explain their snivelling deference to a once in a millennia loonatic of these proportions. He's not only, obviously and blatantly imposing hardship on the most vulnerable Americans for personal gain, he is destroying US influence and respect globally. The rest of the world now see the US as a real and present danger. A pscho killer nation from whose derangement no one is safe. How long will this be tolerated; and how long before it occurs to Trump to drop a nuclear bomb on someone just to boost his ego? We aren't dealing with a rational mind, and RRepublicans need to be told that their 'king' went from a corporate tool to Caligula quicker than a Ferrari.

As an American, I'm with Canada and Ukraine. Trump does not speak for all of us.
