So this is why the northern borders stays affected by leadership not supporting to stop all that crime that originates from Canada. And the recent statements made by this dude that their doing something about the war on drugs should have started decades ago DECADES AGO…. all of sudden theres alleged action to combat evil

Putin despises Canada. Canada has the largest Ukrainian diaspora in the world. Canada supports Ukraine. Trump works for Putin. Buckle up USA! You were warned.

Fully support to Canada ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

A message to Canada from an actual patriotic American: Do what you need to do. We support you. We understand you are helping us stop this scourge that is Trump.

I Live in Michigan, and I Never Voted for this Monster ?, Trump....\n I voted for Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz....\n I Do Not Endorse Trump's Crazy Tariffs....\n On Behalf of ALL Americans, Who Never Endorsed, These Three stooges, that are Destroying my Country....\n I can Only Hope We can Get Through, This, and I dont Blame Canada, or Mexico, for the Backlash Against Us.....\n I support you're Position.....\nNever in my 62 Year's of being Alive, have I ever witnessed such raw pure Evil, as Trump, JD VANCE, Elon Musk.....\n I apologize in advance, and ask for you're Prayer ? that this Oppressiveness, will STOP ? Soon.....?

Cancelling my trip to San Francisco to support Canada! We will survive as Canadians and wither the storm!

Italian here, 100% support to Canada. Trump, Vance and their cult are just fascist trash, and we have the duty to stand against them as much as we possibly can.

This is BEYOND enraging and embarrassing as an American. Trump is the biggest danger to the world and world peace! Millions of us Americans support you Canada and Ukraine! And Trumps supporters sure are quiet about those supposed “cheap eggs” here comes the disastrous tariffs!

America has supported so many countries for so long, We love canada but we also do not need to be taken advantage of.

Governor Trudeau is properly punished by President Trump. Very Good Job Sir. This absurd canadian government should be punished properly. Full support from Canada.

CANADA FIRST! The world will support your country... ??

How is he defending Canadian jobs? The whole point of tarrifs is to make it unprofitable for American companies to use Canada for things like manufacturing, energy and other natural resources.\n\nThe liberal government is who made us weak where we depended on the trade deficit in our favour. If we looked at tapping our resources and finding other markets, we wouldn't be so far gone.\n\nTrudeau's answer? EI? More taxpayer debt?\n\nHe's trying to use this situation to garner support from the public. We're screwed.

Another American and 22 year Air Force veteran here, who stands by Canada and Mexico. This is idiotic and I am completely embarassed by Trump, everyone who voted for him and the sycophants who continue to support him. Unfortunately they cannot be reasoned with.

What a speech!❤❤❤\nSo proud of our handsome, intelligent Mr. Trudeau!\nThank everyone who supports Canada, thank you for all comments!\nDear American neighbours we love you, but we love and stand united for our beloved Canada??????

Texan and Cold War veteran here. Canada has fought beside us in every major conflict and a number of small ones as well and has always been a good friend to the American people. I will do everything I can to support Canada and Ukraine and any other ally our current dis-administration attempts to bully. \n\nExcellent speech Mr. Prime Minister, you are what leadership and integrity look like and Canadians can be proud to call you their own. You are polite, we are not. You are loyal, we are not. You have guts, we currently do not. God keep your land glorious and free!

as a canadian i just want to thank all the americans who support canada. thank you so much <3

A rough road ahead...I support Canada and in 2 years we can dump drump/republicans. Honestly republicans have forsaken our country

As a Minnesotan, I feel as if I’m almost as Canadian as American and proud to say so. Our present sitting president and buffoon unelected sidekick Musk are creating chaos everywhere for the sake of billionaire donors and supporters. Absolutely none of what Trump/Musk has done and plans to continue to do is beneficial to a single non-wealthy American and these actions will harm his personal voters (of which I’ve never been one!) the most. Trump cares not. Pervasive narcissistic sociopathy is not curable! Stand strong Canada! We’re trying mightily to defeat this insanity here in the USA! 74 million people did not vote for any of this harm and destruction and outright cruelty!

I don't care what side of the fence you sit on. I did not need to hear this man speak to already know Canada was, but may yet be, our greatest ally and trading partner. I have no idea what possessed Mr. Trump to decide to stab our allies in the back, but it was not something good. 27.5% of voting age adults voted for him. How many of them were serenaded by hollow promises and a good slogan. Perhaps all of the mud slinging and Russian media interference helped? If you add in our more studious teenagers, truly reformed felons, and immigrants who actually deserve a gold card, that number plummets to less than 25%. I won't ask people to wake up, if you are reading this you are already more than capable of finding out that I speak only the hard truth. This means less than a quarter of america wanted this. This means your vote and opinions DO count. I know it is incredibly difficult to reach for and find answers in a world where your president or primary candidate throws 'fake news' in your face on a regular basis. He is actually telling the truth. When he is not telling you is that he is a primary enabler of 'fake news'. To him, only his word is law, only his opinion matters, only he deserves to be on top, and he deserves authority over all of your lives. Do the right thing, we all have a civil duty to understand our candidates to the very best of our ability. When a man has been convicted of dozens of felonies, and we tell you that this is only what we were willing to expose. You may want start believing us. The genuine facts of his past are unilaterally corrupting to our children and good people alike. Do not let the american people repeat their mistakes, force Mr. Trump to atone for his mistakes. No not empower him to sweep them under the rug for the sake of his own arrogance, because that is exactly what he is doing by trying to dismantle the CIA and FBI. These two institutions are shining examples of America's pursuit of freedom and justice. Freedom to keep billionaires from corrupting the morals of our children. Freedom to know that the rule of law is immutable, our constitution is not just a paper with fancy traditional sentiment. Even if the law may sometimes be bent for the sake of decency, forgiveness, and the pursuit of 'united we stand', our constitution cannot. Amendments require the FULL support of nearly all Americans, not 27.5% of unrestricted adults.

From Massachusetts. We do not want this either!!!!!?. We stand with Canada more than our own government….meaning this President who got elected with less than a majority vote. Even his supporters are raging against him. I wish that there was something more that we could do as individual American citizens.?? I will pray for this insanity to end.

USA!!! Buy American. Canada has been taking advantage of the US. We need to make America better!!! Having a better economy means we buy American and stop supporting foreign nations.

I am an American who supports sound and sane and for the people, Canada .....So, who still believes that a convict that supports an immigrant, Nazi supporter, high off of whatever and swinging.. a chainsaw and in bed with Putin deserves to be in an oval office?..... Impeach this ? before we all deminish... At his agenda and will ....

Stay strong Canada. Australia overwhelmingly supports you, Europe and Ukraine against the madness coming from the white house

PM Trudeau, this American supports Canada. Dump is an idiot. \nVote out all Republicans, every single election, local, state and federal.

Mutch love from the Netherlands to Canada. We will never forget or stop supporting our liberators????❤️??\nVery nice speech and it hurts me to see this happen to Canada.

Oh no maple syrup ............nooooo . Have any of you Canadians looked into what Canada imports vs exports .......... remeber all those new green deal garbage is out the window here in the USA, so lumber is going back up , mining , etc . Just because our countries are next to each other doesn't make us neighbors......... your country has allowed trahs polices to over ride your citizen rights, you've filled your country with migrants , you support crazy sick policies allowing sexual perversion to be put before public saftey . If your countries economy is so effected by this maybe you need this , got a little to relaxed riding tr he coat tails of being next to America. And don't take it personal , this isn't about you as a country but more about American calling out americna companies who build factories only your side , get great deals for taxes and then import the products back to American at a premium retail price and then profit off the American people while offering nothing back .........the end goal is to either make thise companies pay more to get products over the boarder , or bring the factories back here and employee americans .........and last I check the Canadian government doesn't own or produce any products so the things that will be imported to usa will be the ones with a cost rise to the companies that are producing them ........ them............

I made it a point to buy Canadian Whiskey today in support of Canada and will continue to do so.

trump is just a COMPLETE idiot .... we want CANADA as an ALLY !!! they love us & all you MAGA supporters DID THIS ! ?‍?

All those asked to be Americans and supporting Ukraine in endless war, why don't you all move to Canada or go fight for Ukraine. If you're not ready, just shut up with your bs, because all you do is talk and take no action.

Damn, Canadians hate this guy but he's basically the political Kanye. He can get as much hate as he wants but he's still the best celebrity out there in his own mind.\n\nJust saying... if I'm Canada, im not going to try to rally support of the American people by falsely threatening that we will suffer at Canada's hand because of retaliatory tariffs. Thats just silly...\n\nThis man should talk about building his own economy instead of complaining that his benefactor is asking for aome money back.

As a proud new Canadian and a born and raised Brit I think now is the time to create a new trade partnership between UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Together we have everything we need. I'd even support a free movement agreement.

I support Canada ????

I support Canada and their citizens and their leaders. My U.S. country is the core problems.

Autarky and Autocracy, Dicktatoes and Dickhead Economics, hand in hand.\nI urge Canada to seek maximum assistance from all those who LOVE Canada, Canadians, Canadian Products that have so benefitted this world of ours.\nAutarky never works - IT CANNOT STAND FOR LONG.\n\n1. North Korea (Juche Policy)\nNorth Korea's commitment to Juche (self-reliance) has led to severe economic stagnation and recurring famines, most notably in the 1990s, when an estimated 600,000–3 million people died due to food shortages.\nThe lack of trade and foreign investment has stifled technological progress and industrial growth.\nNorth Korea is now heavily dependent on China for food, fuel, and economic support despite its official autarkic stance.\n2. Albania under Enver Hoxha (1944–1992)\nHoxha's regime pursued extreme isolationism, severing ties with both the Soviet Union and China.\nThe economy collapsed due to lack of trade, modern technology, and external investment.\nBy the late 1980s, Albania was one of the poorest and most backward countries in Europe, with widespread shortages of food, medicine, and basic goods.\n3. Spain under Franco (1940s–1950s)\nFrancisco Franco initially pursued autarquía after the Spanish Civil War, aiming to make Spain self-sufficient.\nThe policy resulted in economic stagnation, black markets, food shortages, and a declining standard of living.\nBy the 1950s, Franco was forced to abandon autarky in favor of liberalization and foreign investment, which led to the later Spanish Miracle of rapid economic growth.\n4. Argentina under Juan Perón (1946–1955)\nPerón aimed for economic independence through import substitution and state control of industries.\nInitially, Argentina benefited from post-war trade surpluses, but as reserves dwindled and industry struggled without external competition, inflation and inefficiencies mounted.\nThe economy ultimately deteriorated, forcing a shift back to trade and foreign investment.\n5. Maoist China (1950s–1970s)\nMao Zedong’s push for self-sufficiency, particularly during the Great Leap Forward, led to disastrous economic consequences.\nAgricultural mismanagement and isolationist policies contributed to the Great Chinese Famine (1959–1961), causing an estimated 15–45 million deaths.\nChina only saw major economic improvement after opening up to global trade under Deng Xiaoping’s reforms in the late 1970s.

I love all of the trump supporters or bots telling us to ‘go move to Canada’ or ‘leave, then,’ not realizing that if we did, this country wouldn’t be able to sustain itself, and fall faster than their heads could spin\n\nThat level of foresight and intellect tells us exactly why they thought trump would save the economy, lol\n\nWhy do you think they went after Roe, and keep telling us to breed? They need more people paying taxes so that the rich don’t have to: they want serfs\n\nAre the libs owned yet? Are we owned? lol

BRAVO PM Trudeau!!!!!! this is fantastic that you are standing up against the inhinged criminal FELON and TYRANT!!\nDo not ever cave in to this idiot BULLY or Canada will forever regret it, trump cant be reasoned with, talked to , persueded or anything else.\nConsider CUTTING the electric power to the 3 US States, and the OIL exported to the US as well- hit HARD and don't give in! The rest of the world is BEHIND you and support you!

What a strong, fact based response. Never been more proud of Trudeau. Trump has chosen to start a trade war that is going to hurt Americans the most. Let's join hands to support local businesses by buying local when possible, even when it hurts the pocket. Standing strong with Canada ?? . We will come out strong ???

Let me be clear. Stop giving Canada money. And if you're a American and you support being trillions of dollars in deficit for a country that we literally pay money to in order to keep their economy healthy then you need to move out of my country.

We love you Canada and support you you!!! ❤❤ we’re soooo sorry we have insane people running our government now!!! I voted for Kamala and am just as disappointed in our country as you guys ? stay strong and classy and do what you gotta do !!! It’s suxxx tht we’re in the crossfire though ??

Well said. I support Canada and I will join Canada...

Support Canada!!

Canada plays a crucial role in supplying energy to the United States, serving as its largest foreign energy provider. Here's an overview of Canada's contributions to the U.S. energy supply:\n\nCrude Oil:\n\nIn 2023, Canada supplied 60% of the crude oil imported by the U.S., amounting to approximately 3.8 million barrels per day. This represented about 24% of the total crude oil processed by U.S. refineries during that year. \n\n\nNatural Gas:\n\nCanada provided nearly 100% of the natural gas imported by the U.S. in 2023, underscoring its significance in meeting U.S. natural gas demand. \n\n\nElectricity:\n\nIn 2023, Canada exported approximately 33 terawatt-hours of electricity to the U.S., accounting for about 85% of U.S. electricity imports. \n\n\nOverall Energy Trade:\n\nThe total value of energy trade between Canada and the U.S. in 2023 was approximately US$153.7 billion, with Canada exporting energy products worth US$123.7 billion to the U.S. \n\n\nThese figures highlight Canada's pivotal role in supporting the U.S. energy infrastructure across multiple sectors.

WE LOVE YOU & SUPPORT YOU CANADA...WE STAND WITH YOU??♥️????

Go after American retailers in Canada. Go after Walmart, Home Depot, Costco and Best Buy. We also have a plethora of American restaurants in Canada, Justin should tax them all. Don't give Canada to that lunatic Trump for free, fight dollar for dollar Justin.\n\nWe also use alot of American drilling tools, equipment and machines in oil and gas. We go after all these companies and put pressure on them. Their silence is a support for Trump!!\n\nFrom now onwards, Canada should reduce her relanance on America to a mere 20% or lower. Issues like this should inspire Canadian politicians to go global and seek partners worldwide.

If you support this then move there. It's super simple. Get out. Stop paying Canada period. Just go. When you do send us your address.

Yall supporting this tyrant is HILARIOUS! Canada is NOTHING to the US ?

My deepest gratitude to all who support Canada. ??

We (Americans) support you, Canada!!

Supporting Canada from Australia. Trump's tyranny will not stand. Viva Canada!

I support Canada all the way!! Love the way he speaks! ❤❤
