OK woke Trudeau, who is about to get replaced - remove tariffs targeting US businesses for the last 3 decades, like the 200%+ tariff on dairy products from USA, then we can talk\n\n...and YES we will deal with Russia because they are the only country who didn't take a red cent of aid from USA - their fertilizer is far cheaper than Canada's fertilizer.\n\nI'm speaking to Canadians - especially the truckers whose bank accounts Trudeau froze - vote out the woke Canadian government!\n\nAs far as CNN goes, you are traitors - you would betray USA because the dummy you wanted to win failed against Trump.\n\nThe stock market going down has far more to do with short supply of chips - that is why tech companies were hit heaviest. Last time I checked, Canada doesn't make chips.

Yes, take your country back.

US Citizen here! YES CANADA!!!! SLAVA UKRAINE ????

I'm from. Ew Zealand. All I see is Russia and China saying yes, now rome will full . Like Russia did in the 90's . Your all playing into the hands .

U.S. here....first, I and most Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine. Second, yes tRUMP made a dumb mistake. But everyone must realize that he really isn't very smart. His own cabinet members from his first term have said so. He doesn't understand things and he doesn't read. I feel pretty sure that his daddy paid for him to get into business school and paid for his degree, just as he paid a doctor to say he had bone spurs. He just isn't very bright. I think his business failings show the same thing. Whatever Canada and Mexico feel they have to do to stand up to this dictator wanna-be, so be it. I hope the MAGAt supporters here get a hard wake up call....I can't have sympathy for them.

America is the bad guys evil leader and evil military yes men to weak to have an opinion woke fairy soldiers .

Yes, Trump is responsible, BUT like Canada says, “it’s the American GOVERNMENT” that is allowing this to happen. The entire Republican congressional delegation is also responsible.

Yes! Don, you are so dumb

Trump is a horrible, horrible human. I am devastated over what he is doing. I've never once given Trump my vote and I'm not a lefty liberal. I knew if he was voted in he was going to cause world wide chaos. He has shown his character over and over and over...yet a large portion of American's just ignored it. This election wasn't about republicans or democrats or independents. This election was about humanity and global security. American's ignored the writing on the wall for their own singular wants/opinions. They stand with their Trump flags but only a few of them can actually explain any accurate information about his policy or legal issues and they condone his behavior. The majority of Trumpers claim to be 'Christians'. Christians voting for a man who is a bully, abuser, liar, predator, monger of power, impedes freedom of press and speech and aligns himself with a dictator. He pardoned violent offenders and called them patriotic, spouts false information, obstructs investigations, has numerous felony charges against him and has now made enemies with our allies. Shall I go on? That's not Christian. Even if you aren't Christian...that's not what America stands for. All for what...eggs? Guns? Cheaper groceries? Or because your need for hating a small group of people out weighs global peace. Or is it because you are so short sighted that you can't even see the valuable contribution that non American born people provide this country. Yes, Biden fell asleep at the wheel. Yet many of you still believed the better choice was a psychopath. This election was important. We failed as a country by putting this man in office. No matter what party you align with, we failed. Yes, I want cheaper eggs. Yes, I really need cheaper groceries. But not over the safety of the globe. Not over the lives of the people and children being killed in an unprovoked war. Not over the safety of Europe. Not over ripping off our closest and favorite country that borders us. Not over losing our democracy and our allies. I stand with Ukraine, Canada, Mexico and Europe and the Gulf of Mexico. You should ask yourself what you really stand for.

yes. Trump has declared (literally) WAR on Canada, Europe, Mexico & Ukraine. What would the US vets from past conflicts protecting democracy, freedom and liberty think? Rolling in their graves!

Mr. Trudeau is right on and not afraid of the tyrant Donald idiot Trump, but guess who will have to pay for stupid move by the republican idiot that 75 mil. people voted, yes we will pay the price.

In the long run America will be 10 times stronger in every aspect as long as we don’t complain about the short term cost. Yes poor and rich alike. Have faith in trump he is a great man for America. Let’s stick it out till America makes everything we Americans need to prosper??

American media is worst than indian medias. Yes mans

Thank you Trudeau and Canada!\nWe can't defeat this madman internally, so yes, please keep executing external discipline & control until these crazy trump supporters feel it & understand it & change!\n\nAmerica deserves this tough love lesson from our brother, Canada!

I don't like Trudeau. I don't like what he did to Canada in advancing a ridiculous far left agenda however I also don't believe the tariffs employed by Trump were the correct thing to do. Mexico and China, yes. Canada, no!

Now Trudeau is standing strong and yes his country now shows strength. Can’t be our 51st no matter being called a governor! He speaks like a good PM\nWe love and support Canada ??

We in the uk will stand with our Canadian brothers but we wish our American friends would stop this nonsense we all all supposed to be allies did America forget already who stood firm with them after 9 11 yes the uk and Canada our troops died alongside Americans and we didn’t want anything in return, come on America this is not you

Yes Trump is a real Dumbo.

As an american....yes. Go after man baby trumpikov and JD blanche. Is this is boosting the liberals poll numbers. Democrats in the US could take note of what having a spine looks like.

YES! ????????????????????

I was never a fan of Trudeau, but compared to Trump he is a breath of fresh air. Give it 3 years and 10 months and Americans will be back to sanity. Don't know if America will be in one piece though. After the three stooges have fired everyone, and taken away their social security, and our soldiers dying for no reason against our allies, and the VA system disbanded from helping past soldiers who made sacrifices for this country, while the dollar has lost most of its value, while inflation is through the roof....yes it will be tough. To our Canadian and Mexican neighbors, do what you have to do to inflict pain on the meatheads in America who think Trump is their savior. They need to be taught a valuable lesson.

Justin Trudeau is a parasite...he caused 86% food inflation, causing millions of Canadians to have to rely on food banks, while Trudeau spent $81k of Canadian taxpayers dollars on groceries for himself this year alone...Trudeau underfunded Canada in relation to NATO, underfunded Canada in relation to NORAD, ticked off Trump by being rude to him in the past so that now Trump launches an economic trade war against Canada cause he just wants to hurt Canada to hurt Trudeau. Yes, Trump is an absolute economic imbecile as this trade war will cause Great Depression 2 in America and Canada (unless he invades which I think he will in some years) but the thing I hate the most about this is that Trump makes Trudeau look like the good guy in all this when Trudeau ruined Canada beforehand...all Trump needed to do was SHUT UP and let the Canadian perpetual liar LEAVE office...now we all pay the price for Trump's hatred of Justin Trudeau :(

Yes there is

Can Trump Become a Dictator Like Putin? \nTrump has authoritarian tendencies, but turning the U.S. into a full dictatorship like Putin’s Russia would be extremely difficult. Here’s why: \n1⃣ The U.S. Has Strong Institutional Barriers \nUnlike Russia, where Putin gradually dismantled democracy, the U.S. has checks and balances (Congress, courts, states, the military). \nTrump tried to challenge the system, but courts often ruled against him, showing that he doesn’t have full control. \nTo become a true dictator, he would need to take over the judicial system, military, and elections—none of which are fully in his hands. \n? Example: \nTrump lost multiple court cases on election fraud claims, proving he does not yet have absolute control. \n2⃣ He Lacks Full Control Over the Military & Law Enforcement \nPutin controls the Russian military and secret police, allowing him to silence opposition. \nIn the U.S., the military swears loyalty to the Constitution, not the president. \nTrump tried to use the military against protesters, but military leaders refused, signaling that they wouldn’t blindly follow him. \n? Example: \nOn Jan 6, 2021, Trump encouraged an attack on the Capitol, but the military did not intervene on his behalf. \n3⃣ American Democracy is Deeply Embedded in Culture \nUnlike Russia, where people are used to strongmen leaders, Americans are culturally resistant to dictatorship. \nU.S. citizens, journalists, and activists openly resist government overreach, making it harder for an authoritarian to rise. \nFree press and independent media make it difficult to spread unchecked propaganda the way Putin does in Russia. \n? Example: \nTrump was impeached twice, showing that Congress still holds power over the president. \n4⃣ Trump’s Path to Dictatorship Would Require More Control Over Elections \nPutin rigged elections, eliminated opponents, and rewrote laws to stay in power. \nTrump has tried to change voting laws and delegitimize elections, but the system still blocked him. \nIf Trump could fully control elections, he could remove opposition and rule indefinitely. \n? Example: \nHe’s trying to install loyalists in key election positions for 2024, but this does not guarantee full control. \n5⃣ Could He Still Try? Yes. Could He Succeed? Unlikely (For Now). \n✔ Trump has authoritarian instincts and wants more power. \n✔ He is trying to weaken institutions to increase control. \n✔ But the U.S. system makes dictatorship much harder than in Russia. \n✔ Unless he completely controls elections, the courts, and the military, he cannot rule like Putin.

Yes Justin. Everything out if ?is a lie.

Yes!!! I'm a US citizen and so proud of Canada!!

I am a Republican and sickend by this, our goverment are a bunch of yes men

Justin, let me speak directly to you. Keep your illegal drugs and illegal immigrants on your side of the border. Yes, it will hurt but not as much as the alternative.

Wow, you jerks voted for this! Where are those cheaper eggs and gas? Oh yeah and neutralizing less than 1 percent of our population, yes trans people.\nLike I said, you idiots voted for this! \nWe warned you MAGA folks for 9 years! 9 years.\nHope this is giving some white MAGA man a hard on!

Yes he's very polite in his speech although he's angry comparing to Trump who speaks like a gangster to threaten everyone he doesn't like.

Yes! Well done Canada! It’s like “Fuck you Trump!”

Imagine if Trudeau announced that he would be pausing the carbon tax on the Canadian people to help offset some of the costs imposed on us by the United States. Do I respect that he is standing up for Canadians...Yes! Is Donald foolish in creating a trade dispute between his closest friends and Allies...Yes! Who's going to suffer....everyone! Government screwing over the people continues as it always have.

Yes EVERYONE IN CANADA IS COSYING UP TO THE LYING MURDEROUS GENOCIDAL MANIC REGIME INSTALLED BY THE COMMONWEALTH OF BRITISH IMPERIAL DUCHEBAGS USA, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND ETCETERA IN PALESTINE. SO FCU* YOU & YOUR HONESTY & POLITENESS ?

What s little weasel! He made this whole mess of Canada & now he wants to talk tough?? How dare you, yes YOU weasel followed Greta Thumberg like a little b that you are! Just go away you corrupt piece of huey, you've never done anything concrete in your life ,except bring Canada down, GO Trump, bring down this dictator, who's decided what we can watch, hear& see, & he's got the nerve to call out President Trump?? Thats too funny,& all those who stand with Ukraine, are you willing to send uour sons to war? Bet not,but you want someone else's child to go , imagine that !! Zelinsky is as corrupt at this idiot ( Trudeau, or Castro Jr.) But ya,go for it! Send YOUR child to fight this war,that will not ever end!!\nYa all make me sick!!

What was the point of this speech? Was it a threat? No. Was it a plea? Yes. Was he criticizing Trump? Not really. Was he praising Trump? Yes! How can anyone approve this speech??

There is no way America can survive four years of Trump. Both Trump and his yes man Vance need to be removed from office now. Damn shame that I think I could do a better job running the country--just not be stupid and ignorant.

Stock market crashing under the Dotard, as the NK leader called Donnie boy. You are a loser President! Wall Street has spoken in the first one and a half months of this farce of an administration. Are you trying to match Republican Herbert Hoover’s crash of the stock market of 1929?? Republicans crash economies, yes they sure do. GW Bush crashed it big time in his last few months of his presidency. How bad will the Trump crash be ??? ? hmmm ? Trump attacks allies and cozies up to dictators like Putin.

Yes he did called Donald Dump?

Yes Mr Trudeau understand not all Americans bow down to the ring

Well yes because we are your boarder. But I get it

Yes it doesn’t make sense , Putin suport and against allies

Blistering? If by that you mean BLATHERING......then yes

Yes this weasel is the reason canada is in this predicament, Trudeau stopped pipelines from being built ,based on the lie of climate emergency, now he will shift the blame to Trump.

Yes yes Canadian president go beast Canada

Yes, we will be hurt. There is not a problem with the American people, but there is a problem with the American government. We will stand with you against trump's robber baron policies.\n At the same time, We Will support our nation and fellow Canadians through these 'stupid' times.\n With thanks, from British Columbia ??

I am extremely saddened and embarrassed by our president's actions. Seeing what Donald Trump has done in the past and is doing now, I pray for him and other world leaders every day. Their political choices matter. I did not vote for Trump, his first nor second term. He did so much harm during his last presidency that fueled so much division. And yes, Vladimir Putin is absolutely playing him, and he can not see that. I'll keep on praying, and leave it in God's hands. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, and Mexico.

Yes, our goveenment is nuts ??

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

Its time for the world to move on without the USA ,Canada is one of the most democratic countries in the world ,They will get over it ,Move on and be strong ,Trump must have read the UK's shortest PM in historys book ,Yes Liz truss she crashed the UK economy in days ...Good job Donald you will have a warm welcome when you go home to Mother Russia

YES CANADA , DONT STAND BACK , YOU ARE STONG.\nHOERA FOR CANADA, EUROPA IS WITH YOU.
