40 million people live in Canada. I’m sure USA would do alright without Canada. This clown speaks on Americans like he is one, truly disrespectful. This guy is a big talker like Obama but soft. People like him are what causes stagnation and unemployment. Trump sells strength security fairness. Sorry if it hurts your little feelings.

As an American, I am so sorry Canada for this mess. Please know a majority of us are suffering and never wanted this nor voted for it. I love you Canada and stand with you.

I really want to move to Canada

I’m in Montana….Trump is hurting small business…..I didn’t vote for Comrade Trump…..

He is the real leader and hero?　Am Japanese and worrying that our leader would suck up to Mr. ?

It's hilarious they keep being flabbergasted about Trump doing things that their enemies want, because that's exactly who he is working for. He does not care about Americans or Canadians or anyone at all except his cronies and his group of Russian-led oligarchs, and making themselves all even richer than they already are off the backs of the working classes everywhere. He is working for the enemy, which is precisely why it looks for all the world like he's working for he enemy. Figure it out!

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

As an American, this is beyond embarrassing!!! Please know that not every American is like Trump….a majority of us aren’t!

So you can put tariffs on us but we cant reciprocate?

i was born in new haven in 67, i am canadian now thank fuck

Lol...?...the whiney Justin is digging Canada a deep grave

Why is Trump in office in the first place? Even if Trump has the answer, why does he conduct business like that of a 3rd grade Hollywood clan? The world is in struggle mode, and everyone is divided significantly. This is a sad day!

I like how he switches to really simple English the moment he addresses Trump directly.

I love Canadian people; they're amazing people. I have friends from there. Canada.

I thought this clown stepped down or something

Sorry he Trump is not smart he is stupid cant read loves farting fast food and shiting in dipers oh ya what a Felon this guy is soon he will loose his teeth jd vance waiting for that.I am a US Veteran and iam so ashamed that this is really going on and i will tell you this shame on MEGA GOD BLESS THE EU.

Lying left wing lunatics need to be off the air

Who cares what this resigned coward has to say? Pierre will fix Canada

I’m embarrassed to live in america

If Canada ever so awesome why does everybody want to come to the United States

Why is Justin Trudeau lying..Dopey Don is not a smart guy…I know you have to stroke his ego..but that is a bridge too far…Sir..

Canada shouldve been stopping immigrants and deadly drugs a long time ago. Now you want to respond! We lost too many Americans due to thay deadly drug. Hudreds of thousands of americans, including my brother. So to hell wtih Canada and there tarrifs. We dont need there products. Americans, stand stong and weather the storm. Canada will bow down. USA WILL NEVER BOW DOWN!

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.

‘Donald’ ??????????

GO TO HELL, J U S T I N , Where YOU belong !!! I'm Canadian and I say .... GO, DONALD, GO !!!!!

I mean, it should be crystal clear now that Trump is absolutely a Russian asset. He's actively damaging US interests & relations throughout the world.

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

Damn. How come we don't have a single Dem Rep or Senator that can make near as clear and sharp a case as this ? Go Trudeau !

Come on USA, stand up to Trump! Strength in numbers

Listen boy you will do as your told and like it!!! ?

All talk we own Canada

Appreciate you Trudeau.

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!

Canada england should go to europe union

Sorry they just voted for a loser devil. I no you have to do what you have to. But with America voting the unfit old uneducated did I already call him a loser. I hate everybody that voted for this. Bullshit

I cant believe the difference in intellect and grace between this intelligent leader and that dipstick from the US.

He is Canada's Gavin Newsom, he is lying when his lips are moving.

Trump is not a smart man. You don’t need to stroke his ego. He’s a idiot

Trump ✊????????.

? Arkinsaw ? .......what does Delaware......? anything she wants.

I almost forgot what a president sounds like and it hasn't been that long either

Bravo! So proud of our PM! I wish he would stay on as our PM for another 4 years. He speaks intelligently, eloquently and straight from the heart unlike the immature Orange Monster who speaks in a kindergarten level.

This isn't the 1800s... the world CAN and WILL trade around us. We will be North Korea. Of my family suffers so will MAGAs that voted for this administration. No quarter.

Excited to see America will be the second superpower

I often reference Justin Trudeau when making big decisions. I think what would Justin do in this situation…..then I do the opposite. It works like a charm. Shut up Justin no one cares what you think.

Distinguished man speaking to a dreadful child.

This is bad. ?

T'Rumpty has lost credibility world wide - Except for in Russia, but basically Putin is sitting back laughing at the orange buffoon in the White House!

Day one of Trump's grand stupidity, I mean tariff plan.

Go TRUMP
