From the USA: Not everyone here follows a dictator even though he somehow managed to get a second term. Even worse than Trump are the people who still follow him. SORRY Canada...

All he needed to do to secure Canada's borders. They should be doing that anyways. But Trudeau decides to hurt his own people by having a trade war with the USA. CANADIANS are angry with Trudeau

USA has been carrying Canada for too long

How’s your CARBON TAX, governor Trudeau? What is Trudeau so against tariffs, isn’t it America just want an equal tariffs that Canada also imposed on USA?! Trudeau. should be talking more againsts his own CARBON TAX. Wake up fellow Canadians!! This guy is sending $$$ to useless Ukraine war. Wake up!!!

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............

if it is in canadas case. how about china. its the same story. tariff will hurt usa

We used to say, we love Canada almost as much as we love our USA. It has become a backwards statement.

Canada doesn’t even have a MILITARY… bc its neighbors to USA! How can Canada be doing so well with less than cali population but other countries with far more ppl and resources are not? It’s bc USA and Europe

Very soon he will realise his mistake by Challenging USA as he was proven Lier when blaming India for the Murder of one Terrorists in Canada ?

Retaliatory tarrifs against USA are necessary, but a better impact would be achieved with significant but similar retaliatory increase in sanctions against Putin. In that way, Putin will be more likely to tell his boy to stop the attack against Canada.

USA has been getting f cked trading with Canada and we are tired of paying to protect them while sucking up to the Chinese. ❤

I ❤️ Justin ?? .....He could be reading the phone book outloud and i would tune in. After the Million Women's March in 2017, i decided that the USA was a Providence in Canada, and I always long to hear from my trusted leader.

So you telling me that because Trump put tariffs in play, Canada in an uproar if it’s such an issue cut all ties with the USA and broker a deal with another country.

Yup. The USA needs goods from Canada more than Canada needs goods from the USA .This will cripple Red States ?

You Go Trudeau! Please let me move to CANADA…\nI don’t want to live in USA any more with these CRAZY people that are running our country for the next four years cry? please help me …….

I would prefer to live in Canada than the USA. So ashamed of this government. The words peace is just a word to get ahead of other countries and victimize themselves.

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.

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!

Screw you Trudou. It’s call equality. What you charge USA and have been charging USA for decades now will be charged to Canada. Let’s see how that feels… you don’t like it ? Well than lower your tariffs to match US tariffs. \nI am glad you are off your drugs. Or are you?

Canada always been normal country. But what is now USA...

canada gdp: 2 trillion. \nUS gdp: 27 trillion.\nthe usa will outlast canada. this is empty politicking for an outgoing, failed PM.

First economic war then a military invasion. I believe the Americans are setting the stag for a ground invasion of Canada using the escalating trade war as a pretext for a real war. I think everyone needs to consider the possibility that Trump may in fact be an agent of Russia with a single mission to bring down the USA and her allies.

Looks like Trumps goal here is to bring Canada to its knees ( Trump is even trying to get Russian Aluminium to replace Canadian Alumininium) so he can make Canada go broke and beg to become the 51st state of the USA

very well said canada like. usa is acting dumb

Fuck canada they need the usa we dont need them their economy is going to shit!!!! ???

Canada has imposed 5x tarriffs on the USA for decades

Mexico is standing with Canada, we will not let our countries be bullied by the USA. If you want to stop the drugs start by teaching your kids how to be happy without them.

Equality in protecting each other is a must. Mexico and Canada haven’t stopped illegal drugs from coming into their countries which then comes to the USA. Need to beef up your ports and international airports. Your border is safe because of the USA.

Canada has benefited from the USA for many years — it’s time to step up and contribute. ? Let’s focus on fairness and sharing the responsibility don’t bitch about it pay us.

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

Wonderful to hear Canada's response to the bully Trump. President Trudeau response to global issues is measured, articulate and informed compared to the ignorant, bombastic self serving purposes of Donald Duck (AKA Donald Trump/ USA president) rants!!.\n Stand strong Canada, you have leverage (higher exports of power energies) to the US with your natural resources. In Ireland we recognize a huge differential between the morals of the USA versus Canada ( but some times get confused with the accents). I am with you Canada. Every best wish with your endeavors and thank you for supporting the EU.

This will put Canada in deep recession. The USA will have big inflation but not behind like Canada.

Why can't Canada invade the USA? Please, I want to be Canadian...

I love Canada.... Trudeau speaks so well and he is very professional at all times. This is a true model of what a president should be. Those clowns that we have in office ??are embarrassing on all levels. Hey President Trudeau, quick question... Would you like to be president of Canada and USA?

Hey Canada/Trudeau if you don’t want the tariffs from President Trump then remove your limiting factors on American goods to equal the playing field! Maybe these tariffs and our President may finally get you to allow into Canada as much as we do into the USA! Trying to play a game of tariff against President Trump will not do Canadians any good. This is part of the reason you won’t be the tyrant dictator you once enjoyed being. Not to mention the Canadian government should be doing a lot better on stopping the cartels and their POS fentanyl from coming into their country as well as across into the US!

Canada suckled off usa tit forever....detach, grow up, pay your dues, become part of our states

USA and Russia are going to invade Canada

We love you Canada , I am sorry for what we , the USA , is doing ! PLEASE forgive us .

Yay Canada\nNay usa\n-european

Canada >TURN OFF ALL THE ELECTRICITY THAT CANADA SENTS TO THE USA !!

I live in the USA. I believe this is what needs to happen in order to show Trump just how terrible he is at his job. He is ruining our country. We love you, Canada. We are so sorry that the majority voted this buffoon into our government. It's embarrassing and it's scary.

Canada will fall long before the USA will.

Let that Canada PM spit ugly words. He only has a couple of months left as PM. Lmao we want 0% tarrifs also while Canada has always put Tariffs on USA. fuck Canada

I maybe an ignorant on politics , but what happens when USA , well not USA but the Trump administrations has caused so much damage to the country to the point where other maybe most of his allies start taking responses such as that of Canada , and escalate to the point where perhaps USA lose most of his allies at least important allies such as Canada, the support of the global geopolitics , I Maine that scenario for a moment wouldn't that give Trump an excuse to align even more openly with Putin? I mean why would Trump want that at all who knows but he is certainly aligning with Russia just not openly at least that's what a lot of these decisions he has made recently seem to suggest I mean a lot of the consequences of those decisions and acting really seem to benefit someones agenda and to me a politics ignorant seems to be Putin ... Am I too crazy for thinking and feelings like that???

USA doesn’t need Canada. They need us

canada lost its greatest Allie not the USA

canada hurt USA?

Golden age of the USA? \nTotal chaos in the government due to decisions by the most unqualified administration! \nA despicable liar sits in our oval office who is destroying our country every day , every moment. \nWe are loosing our allies, isolating our country and going on an absolutely wrong path. \nI support Canada! Ukraine! Not \nPutin.

Is this the first Step of Canada towards becoming the 51st State of USA? ?? ❤❤❤

The Nazi dictator in Canada just started a trade war against the USA. Ask Trump he will confirm it.
