Canada leaders are on target! They should not allow this worthless bully Trump to bully them! How senseless and ridiculous for Trump to cause this huge problem! Trump wants to be a dictator like Russia president which is why he speaks so favorably about Russia and speak down to our allies and our leaders.\nAmerica foolishly voted Trump back into office , now watch as he destroy this country , families , jobs and alike. \nPrices are higher than ever, Americans will go further into debt with the tariffs our allies are being forced to do!\nOur allies will NEVER TRUST US again

Yet Canada hates him right now, Just as much as all of you hate Trump. Trump never said he sided with Russia and I really wish all of you dimwits would donate your personal money, or personally volunteer to step on the front lines. They have no manpower and y'all are idiots to think that it makes sense to give a country backing after they're the ones who threaten to join NATO and clearly most of y'all don't even know that NATO started this bullshit by going against their promises to Russia and they have added eight former Soviet countries to their union. At this point I'm okay with giving half of the US to the libtards So you guys can pay taxes to fund every other country but your own. Yuck.

Trump made him popular I never knew who he was or even the president of Canada until trump ❤ Canada have mercy that trump for history education lesson cause I know ain't nobody know how much insight Canada ?? has on American ?? supply

As a Canadian, we love everyone! Except bullies and people that create wars and attack innocent people. I have nothing against people from U.S or Russia. I disagree with there leaders however. I don't like our leader but when you start a fight I always was told to never back down. Trump doesn't want to work together. He wants to crush everyone and destroy. NUTS! Canada will fight a bully always. We are also the friendliest people in the world.. Just don't piss us off!

USA is not a friend, never has been. They manipulates and uses who or what ever they want. This is not a Trump issue, this is how USA always has been. We stand for Canada ??????

I have never heard a Canadian sound so fierce and it makes me wish I were a Canadian today. Canada, there are many many Americans that are so ashamed today be part of this country today and please know that we fully support you putting our country in its place. We hope that you know we have your back and that we hope that you will forgive us when we have shown we actually deserve it

why does he care?? he has destroyed Canada more than Trump ever will. Enjoy your retirement and never come back to politics.

OMG in my 52 years never heard anything like this - fkn A - see you fellow americans in the ditches - this isn't gonna end good at all - on all fronts ( not only with Canada) - HOOVERVILLE HERE WE COME !!! - then will come WW3 ! - beautiful.......

From Portugal, I am with Canada and all the countries and peoples who were victims of Trump. \nI never thought I would see a North American President ally with his traditional enemies and create enmity with his traditional friends and allies... all this in one month of government. We have to expect the worst and be united.

I really believe that it just comes down to Trump feeling resentment that he will never be part of a perceived 'inner circle' of establishment world leaders. It's probably over that one time when they were caught on a hot mic dissing him with Trudeau kind of leading the pack. Over the years Trump has shown over and over again that he is that petty and all of his decisions have an absolutely childish basis, yet the American people voted him in a second time. I've run out of patience with the American people too. They're not really doing anything about this except saying online that they support Canada just so they can feel a little better about themselves. If you guys want a dumpy predator for president that's your business but I will be doing my part to fight him and his unjust attacks against my country.

Mr. Trudeau, As an American who has never voted for Trump, I apologize for the person we currently have in the White House, and wish Canada and Mexico the best. Do what you have to do, and hopefully it will cause enough disruption that Trump will have to retreat. Most of us consider Canadians and Mexicans our friends. A lot of people in the US are contacting our representatives in Congress, participating in economic boycotts, and joining groups like the ACLU that are bringing lawsuits against some of the actions that have already occurred. God bless Canada and Mexico!

I don't agree with this as a lifetime American i never had a beef with Canada your my neighbors being from Detroit

I never understood why people called Trump a threat to Democracy. But after seeing him break alliances with Ukraine and start trade wars with Canada their closest ally, while praising Russia. It all starts to make sense

CNN is so full of shit they can’t even talk the facts of Donald Trump getting himself in this shit. Pink suit mama Paula is stuttering all over herself. The first thing she says is how Trudeau spoke of how it’s going to be hard on Canada and then stuttered about it being hard for Americans. But she FAILED to mention that Canada has vowed to be there and make amends for its citizens unlike America whose government has hung its citizens out to dry. CNN also failed to mention ton that Trump signed the current trade agreement when he was president for his first term. Never thought I would see the day CNN would skirt the issue trying their damndest not to use the words the rest of the world is saying and that’s “What the fuck Donald?” Shame on you CNN. You’re the reason the right information isn’t being put out there.

Canada has not been straight with the US. I am IBEW. I have work side-by-side with countless Canadians who are in the IBW. I have never worked side-by-side with the US IBEW worker who has ever worked in Canada. Also Canada has been subsidizing their lumber mills for years, not charging them for The timber so they have an unfair advantage. Let’s let Canada pay their fair share to protect themselves instead of depend on the US to protect them.

American here. We don't want trouble either man. The Beef should had been with Mexico and illigals from the south. But never would i had thought he attack our friendly neighbor north. Really corny if you ask me. Please Trump, work with Canada. They are our Friends. We need Eachother.

It saddens me that Canada did not purchase alaska when it was possible. We have never felt like an american state. id rather be Canadian.

First born American here with one parent from Paris, France, and the other parent from Quebec, Canada. I despise the orange criminal in the Oval Office. I am deeply apologetic to Canada and every single country we have caused harm to because some very ignorant Americans voted a criminal into office. I NEVER voted for this joke!

In my 75 years, I have never been so ashamed, as I am today!!! I stand with Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine!!

This American stands with Canada and Ukraine and never voted for Trump ever.

I support this more than Trump, and I'm sure the majority of Americans agree at this point.\n\nI can't stand the hypocrisy on immigration though. Canada has us as a buffer from a country desperate to get in, and they are still allowed to have very secure borders without getting flack.\n\nWhen America just doesn't want the faucet of immigration on full blast, we are the bad guys.\n\nThe Fentanyl excuse is absurd when it comes to Canada and the tariffs. It's a legitimate concern from the southern border. The northern border has never been an issue...

He is right Canada ? at is trump doing at all same reason he is selling American government houses we the seniors can't afford higher food is ridiculous. We don't count any way we only worked 30 years to be poore is not worth it to work with illness like I did heart patient and sle lupus and many more and that never stopt me from working only to find out I be poor when I have to retire why why are seniors so poore. We worked for our money know we go with out meds just to make sure we have a little food ? sorry about the spelling I am going blind and I wars going blind from lupus why I wars still working

WOW WHAT THE MEDIA DOES TO EVERYONE DO UR RESEARCH BEFORE BELIEVING A TRADER, OWE THOSE R FACTS RESEARCH TRUDEAU IS A TRADER DONT BELIEVE ME RESEARCH SHIT BEFORE YALL MAKE COMMENTS

Can hardly wait until Canada bankrupts the USA. Cut all trade with a war mongering nation, Canadians stand strong and free, we will prevail against the likes of Trump, Vance and musk who was never elected to office. Ontario just canceled starlinks, we don’t buy American products, the best thing is to shut our borders to American citizens and trade period. Just wait and see USA what we do!

Trump seeks to weaken the United States, force Canada into the 51st state, annex Greenland, restrict Mexico economically, repossess the Panama Canal and put it all at Putin's feet. Trump is pursuing Putin's agenda at a time in the history of the earth when climate change is opening up the Arctic Ocean and the North Pole to industrialization and commercialization along new routes never seen before . Trump's policies do not benefit the American people at all, but rather the economic potential of the Russians, The King of the North.

He made being a drug addict legal... even encourages it with free injections. But he's done everything to fight drugs?. The only thing he's worked on is destroying Canada more than anyone in its history and he shouldn't even be allowed to speak on behalf of Canada. He should also never speak the words democracy or dictator since he clearly has them backwards.

How refreshing to listen to an intelligent leader! i only take issue with him calling Trump a smart guy. Trump will never do anything but ridicule and insult Trudeau and Canada no matter what concessions Canada makes. The great thing is that Trump never had any kind of plan except to tariff the hell out of our former allies. Canada is very systematic about their tariffs against US. They are using a scalpel rather than a sledgehammer. Very smart against very stupid, childish, and undisciplined.

Americans like myself are appalled at the current administration. I don’t blame you for doing this Canada. I respect Canadians and feel bad this is happening. It will only hurt the people but we must never let the bully win. We hope this sends a stern message to the Orange Cheeto .

It seams Canada was never friend of US, so it’s time to wake up

This idiot so call leader destroyed Canada with the evil , woke Liberals, you met your mstch now and I hope Canada becomes apart if USA to teach a lesson to every woke Liberal Canadian, we have to bring back strong Christian family communities and get rid of illegal migrants, transgenders, STOP Sexualizing children, STOP all foreign aid especially to the Ukraine, you help your own first and foremost, this idiot Justin Trudeau has to be kucked out of Canada and never let back aling with every other liberal.

He ruined Canada. Nobody likes him, and the Liberals will 100% lose the upcoming election. Crime is out of control. Auto theft as basically an epidemic. Immigration has ruined our housing market. This is the worst Canada has never been in a very long time. But now he speaks like this? Very suspecious. I don't trust him one bit.

Trudeau was naive, this was never about the drugs crossing the border. \nThe tarrifs were never EVER going to leave. Trump is using them as a weapon to harm both sides of the border and destroy the alliance that would unify and stand against Putin. \n\nThat's what it's about, destroying alliances, annexing canada, and using tarrifs as a means to do it.

Wow the United States got what they got because they voted stupidity, hatred, bigotry, racism,no experience, felonies, just to name a few?compared to these two men from Canada and Ukraine ?? who can read, speech different languages, have compassion, have experience, intelligence with integrity… WOW JUST BECAUSE AMERICANS DIDN’T WANT A AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN…who has everything thing in her fingernail that lil Donnie will never have? United States got a “good white boy”who happens to sleep with Satan???

Trump is trying to end a war it’s not the same thing. We don’t need Canada if you haven’t been to America then you don’t know. We can make whatever you can make and better we can grow anything and more then you can just bc of regional weather. Canada is mad bc they make a lot of money off of us and trump is changing America and getting what it’s worth. America always pays more for imports and exports , why? and yet with out American people buying y’all’s stuff you your government will fall gotta keep last and for most gotta keep Canadian politicians payed as far as I know y’all haven’t had to worry about prices in y’all’s country. For years we have been paying more for stuff that should be made here or we pay less. Plain and simple we are getting what we are worth take it or leave. It will be funny when he cuts all exports from Canada it will take a little bit but we will compensate ans there gonna with they just took the 25% little saying over here is you never know what you got till it’s gon.

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.

Bravo Canada! You know how to elect a leader! Trump and his cronies can place tariffs on anything but they will never earn Trust or Respect.

I Chose to stand with Canada…My Apologies to all Canadians for the conduct of the Dictator Wannabe in our country, I for one did not and would never vote to put him in office.. Stay strong Canada for the Majority of the United States stands with you! In Solidarity to your cause. God Bless you all.

Only a response to this aggression. What can you expect? Ucrania never started the war, neither did Canada.

Europe has just announced an 800 billion Euro defence plan; I bet they’d be very interested in Canada’s critical minerals. Canadians will not forget this; this has damaged our relationship with the U.S. and it may never recover. We cannot forget that Americans voted this man back into power knowing who and what he is; they somehow believed that he was magically going to lower the cost of eggs, end a war and save the economy. Canadians will never trust that Americans won’t again elect someone so stupid and pathetically unfit to lead their country; we have to start cutting the trade ties now so that we will never be this vulnerable again. I do agree with Dumpty that we need to pull our weight militarily, so we need to invest in our security and we also need to align ourselves with Europe since Dumpty is clearly aligning the U.S. with Russia.

American here, an actual conservative who never voted for Trump. Canada should immediately turn off the oil to stick it to Trump, and people everywhere should boycott Tesla permanently. The Canadian oil would do best going to Europe to help shut off imports from Russia.\n\nTrump is a traitor who acts like a Russian agent.

As an American, I do not want this either! I did not vote for this and I am feeling very helpless. I am a NEVER TRUMPER. Trump is a bully and a narcissist and I don’t think there is any reasoning with this man. You have to stroke his ego and I wouldn’t blame you for not playing games with our impetuous childish President. Additionally, many are stuck in the illusory effect better know as the big lie effect. If you tell a lie often enough it becomes “true”. Narcissists are dangerous people especially when they are given power. We love you Canada?? I am so incredibly sorry.

GOD BLESS CANADA, LONG LIVE CANADA. I am a student immigrant who had a choice between US and Canada. I chose Canada, and I have never regretted my choice. The people might not know this but Canada is an amazing country. People have no idea how Canadians have built a fantastic country in some of the toughest conditions. Canadians are some of the most polite, helpful and kind people.

Wow an angry Canadian. Never thought I would see that. So sorry Canada. So vey sorry

Trump went against the trade deal that he made with Canada and Mexico when he renegotiated the existing deal during his first term. Trump called his deal with them beautiful and perfect. Trump does not keep the deals he makes to other countries or to the Americans who voted for him. \n\nTrump's final push in his campaign was to cut costs for Americans at the checkout, chuckling at the strange sound of the word 'groceries' to him. He has never worried about or dealt with buying groceries. The moment he got back into office, he said that lower prices wasn't happening and that the American people would suffer. \n\nThen he and Republicans began cuts in jobs and government services to Americans as well as others in the world, so that no one can trust Trump --- and in the case of others in the world, it reflects so bad on the U.S. and against any trust in the U.S. anymore. No president has ever done so much damage at home and abroad so quickly. \n\nTrump is the Deceiver and the Destroyer. Trump doesn't care if his voters figure it out. They are no longer needed.

Putin is an evil leader and so is Kim Jong Un. Building alliances with those evil leaders puts us at risk with God. God is One of order and love. Those leaders stand for hate, murder, lies, and dictatorship. I am American and I am concerned for the welfare of our country. I stand with Ukraine and Canada. Evil will never win…ever. Have no fear with God. Believe that He will protect us.

We are reasonable, than why are we being absolutely destroyed by our politicians for the last 10 years? Thats not reasonable.\n\nThe reason they so outspoken now, is because they know it will make it even worse than what they did, and will continue to do..\n\nIf this tarrif thing never happened would be business as usual, and the Canadian Politicians would just keep making Canada even more expensive, now they have someone to blame for the absolute horrible position they put Canada long before this issue.

Great leadership qualities folks. I never thought he had it in him. ?. Well done Canada. Respect for not bowing down like other leaders. Be proud Canada. We are of him.

As an American I'm 60 yrs old. And I totally agree With Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau 1000%. I never wanted Trump. And let's make this clear by all means. To those that voted for his dumb ass I hope u you got what you wanted. HE DOES NOT GIVE A CRAP BOUT AMERICA ONLY PUTIN WHO WITH TRUMP BEING THE ULTIMATE ASS KISSER TO HIM TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY AND THE PEOPLE WITHIN IT. GOD HELP US ALL. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY. TRUMP IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF.

As an American, I've never been more proud of Canada.

Canadian here . Not interested in buying anything american nor visiting states ever again .Been to usa multiple times and will not go back , at least until there is some leadership that I can respect. I have love for Americans, but never to the detriment of Canada.
