Only rich pricks, Canadians and illegals will suffer from this. Average folk like myself, who won't be buying a new car, or a house don't care. No more new houses means less illegals to build them and less houses means less traffic. Win win.

Friends and allies don’t screw their neighbors with massive trade deficits. Equal is equal. Deficit is deficit. Words have meanings.

If I really want to make sense of all this non sense, in this 'alternative truth world', I will say that, in fact, Trump is surprisingly the best advocate for sustainable development! Because, if the tariffs have the expected consequences, trade between both your countries will decrease, meaning less trucks on the roads, meaning less fossiles fuels, less production, less consumption, meaning less emissions of CO2. Is it what Trump really wants?

Canada 51st state?Better say please and dont forget to ask KING CHARLES III of CANADA The King might say NOT FOR SALE to dementia patients CANADA NOT FOR SALE DID iJUST NOT SAY THAT dONNY In case you forgot CANADA NOT FOR SALE maybe just maybe for rubles not for american money Donny how about YOUR face on the one dollar George is getting too old,dang didnt mean to put ideas in your demented mind

Trudeau should go home and review their tariffs on the US. These are “reciprocal tariffs” which means you get what you give. Trudeau is a walking moron, he needs to just move on out. He thinks he’s going to hurt the US? He’s a joke.

Basically Canada's patience is running out towards Pu, I mean Trump lol

Being a veteran means ? in america just like the flag and anthem don't mean ?....I know and seen veterans with Nazi SS and confederate flags ....I wouldn't help or give them aide...or piss on them if on fire... Canada should play the bullies own game...his mind set is to hold his bowls just because he thinks he don't need toilet tissue.....just give it time....his mind is going to loose when his bowls pressure builds...... believe me ? going to happen whether he likes it or not.....with or without tissue...✌️? Go Canada

Trump has nothing but profit in his eyes, and any preaching means nothing to Trump!

Canada is not our friends. Canada have been leeching off American and putting high tariffs on our export products. Trump is simply doing reciprocal tariffs meaning same percentage tariffs Canada is doing. Stop ripping American off Canada!

It is so amusing that bots have been employed in full force to ensure all the comments are giving a shoulder to the PM to cry on. He at least finds himself useful after attacking mindlessly countries in the world whose security he has no business endangering .\n\nPOTUS is doing what is best for his country and his steps are revolutionary and will cause some pain in the beginning but the population at large should exercise patience and understand he is the only who can get them out of the abyss and also ensure all the people exploiting Usa for their wealth and support don’t do so \n\nPeople have been using USA to their advantage and here is a man who makes sense with his strategy \n\nThis PM speaks as if his tariffs are going to shake up supplies to USA \nHe seems to be living in a dream . Anyway he is going to be out soon \n\nAmericans hang out with POtUs . He is tough less tactful and polite but he means business

What an absolute embarrassment to the citizens of America Trump is. Generations of unity with its allies mean nothing to this walking Cheeto.

I'm sorry, Canada. I don't have much, but tell me where I can help. We are the closest allies, and should be best of friends. Canda is beautiful, and the people are awesome, friendly and polite. I mean, Molson is not so good, but y'all are awesome. GOD BLESS CANADA. GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES.

We stand with ??. I’m an American and wants Canada to stand on business do not back down from trump. Showing love from North Carolina. It will hurt the American people but a lesson needs to be learned. We smart Americans with logic sense stand 10 toes down with Canada. Handle your business sir… we are with you. We have had enough with this fool and he needs to be gone by all means necessary. Time to take the gloves off AMERICANS and get this idiot out of office. ???

You screwed your country so what you say means nothing

????\nNOBODY cares what Canada says or thinks. \nCANADA MEANS NOTHING

Trudeau blistering? Like sphyphilis, you mean?

That means they are not your friend anymore

Woohoo, this is anti-great (MAAA).\n\nlooking forward to all those high prices. I hope my car breaks down soon so I can buy a new one 25% higher price means it’s better!

I find it so disturbing that I’m gonna say this if JD Vance little man JD Vance, the guy who called himself he was in the battlefield, but he wasn’t in no battle. He was just in the battlefield cleaning boots and you know making sure his gun work and you know cleaning his helmet, but he never went outside. He never went outside and what kills me. Is people who talk like they real veterans but they did no vet. They did no vet you ain’t no vet you talked about, the guy who is running with Kamala make it seem like he lied but she was in Afghanistan or I mean Iraq or whatever you call yourself you was in a compound. I know that for fact, JD Vance was in a compound awaiting instructions to see if you were able to go out there battle you didn’t go battle you watch the convoy go in and out. You are the same people you watch in mash mash the show when everybody go outside those same people sitting inside just cleaning boots and walking around that’s what he was doing, if this guy think that you guys could do whatever is dumb let everybody know mega is dumb. I don’t care what mega wanna say you put them in front of a scoreboard and you give them testes they going to show you their dumb most mega is dumb. They’re uneducated. That’s a fact There’s no going around it uneducated OK you can see from the terrorist that’s being put in. They’re uneducated because I don’t know who that’s why when people telling you they want to bring back religion you need to bring back economics in school bro economics in school. You need to bring what really matters not not you. Let a guy who duck the army twice with foot with phony letters, I don’t know how that’s not Fraud if I was supposed to go to the army army twice wouldn’t that call for me to be investigated and be charged for fraud on phone phones shouldn’t be charged for that but you guys run around here calling out veterans and fire and veterans and JD Van saying he’s a veteran and watching the veterans go down this is why I say you put them boys back on the battlefield. I guarantee you veterans will probably put them in the back put them in the back. Yeah they probably send them out to clean the mind as you know, they used to do to the black, servicemen back in the days they used to send them off the plane knowing they was gonna die. They used to send them off the plane to clean mines knowing that they’re gonna die. They used to send them off the planes and shot them while they’re getting shot by the opposition, tell me America if I’m lying about that didn’t you do that to the black serviceman you let them jump off the plane you shot at them but those same black servicemen help us win the war it wasn’t just American white blood they died just like everybody else they died and coward faster the black servicemen help us win the war from air and ground Those Jews, the Jews they help us war to so many races that they’re not telling you that helped you win this war World War I and two America is lying to you guys and that’s what’s been the problem for decades. America is lying to the people and they won’t take acceptability But JD Von he’s gonna get the president of United States. I’d rather vote for pence I’d rather vote for the same guy you say you wanted to vote for him for president then JD Vance if we had to put vice president up there and you had a choice out of say the Democrats loss and you had a choice out of JD Vance or pence I had to choose pence, I would choose Cristi. I would choose them near my feet. It doesn’t have a name to go into. I choose my feet. I would choose somebody else’s feet then put a despicable guy like JD vans a couch hump like JD vans AAA I can’t find a white bread American apple pie woman to marry but I had to go out and use my catalog to buy a woman from out-of-state pregnant her and give her a green card JD vans hell fuck fuck noyou will never get my vote even when you die. You won’t get my vote even when they died you won’t get my vote. Good luck, sir.

ONCE AGAIN WE NEED TO GET THIS RUDE RACIST THUG,NARISSIST WANNA BE GANGSTA THUG AND HIS WANNA BE MOB!! BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY!! FACTS!!! ✌?✌?✌?♥️✊?✊??‍?????????????

Yeah, I mean Trudeau is right. But CNN is still a zionist propaganda nonsense spewing lie machine.

Wait... you mean Canada has a leader who can actually communicate in full sentences and not play an invisible accordian like a street monkey?! I thought every leader was like tRump. Damn! ????

I like how Mexico is not talking everyone saying these tariffs are not gonna work. Mexico already sent 10k more troops to the border so this stops some of the smuggling and immigration already. Its doing something just because people up north are mad doesn't mean its not going to work in the south..

Canada, we would love for you to join the EU! In these challenging times, having a strong and reliable friend like you would mean a lot to us. Sending much love from Luxembourg, Europe ?

well do you blame the Prime Minister i mean come on!!

Let us not forget, that there is also a boycott of travel to the United States which means there are billions of dollars that will not be spent on travel, on accommodation, on the purchase of goods while in the States because there is no longer vacation or travel being done by Canada. That is going to be hundreds of billions of dollars lost to US coffers. This is going to hurt America deeply.

Do you people even have a clue on how to negotiate or do you accept the first offer that you receive at a car dealership? Stop judging Trump because you're using Biden, Obama, and Clinton as barometers and America was taken advantage of during those administrations. As far as tariffs are concerned, Canada and Mexico have committed troops at their border since Trump initiated tariffs. Canada and Mexico are cutting down the flow of fentanyl into our country since Trump initiated tariffs. Trudeau is talking tough because he came off as weak the last time Trump scolded him. Trudeau is scheduled to meet with Trump in a few days. Why is that? Canada will meet Trump's demands on fentanyl and tariffs; and America will profit in the short and long term. Stop believing the fake news who does nothing but create fake chaos no matter what Trump does. These tariffs do not affect our country in any way over the short term. The only reason that the markets are tumbling is because the fake news wants to create panic when there is none. Same thing with Zelensky. You idiots are rooting for a war to continue because Trump is mean. Zelensky is ready to work for peace because the mean guy yelled at him. Wake up idiots! We need strong leaders not people like Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and Sanders who only care about their own interests. You'll find out soon enough who's making money off the Ukraine War.

People from America (and I mean de continent) check the labels before you buy and support Canada and Mexico over USA products every time you can. Trump needs a lesson of how support and partnership is way better than the nonsense he is doing.

You said it “MAKE THAT MAKE SENSE” what a shit show this maggot has created.. turn off the power in NY and every other red state if possible! I love Canada and I do not blame you at all! Stand your ground and come hard and I mean hard!! Make Thea fu**era beg Canada!!

That lady simply lied and tried to twist reality. Trudeau didnt say anything Anti-American. She means anti-white supremacist....trudeau is saying America is not going to use them but mistreating at the same time. Canada is right. Protect yourselves. People in America will see that supporting Trump is GUARANTEED TO FAIL. its just a matter of time.

Which means there was next to no phentanyl

I'm a US citizen I did not vote for Trump I vote for anybody but Trump. The Canadian leader that is a real leader someone who cares about his people and his neighbors.. I mean why are we picking a fight with Canada?

I'm an American and I don't want this, I didn't vote for this, I'm upset by this, and I'm by no means the only American that thinks trade war with Canada is stupid, half the countries number one imports came from Canada, tariffs on a trade partner and Ally is absurd!

This is a serious look and they do mean business. American consumers will pay, yes that's you!

Trump and Vance need to be assa*sin----I mean impeached ASAP!!

@kayingalls6095\n0 seconds ago\nYou just don’t do this to your neighbors. This is not good for either side and how can you put such a divide between us. If you think this is another means of making us the 51 st state it’s not gonna work. You are not God nor a King and we will not bend to your needs.

Why do people still watch CNN after being lied to over and over? Didn't they tell you Hilary was winning in 2016 and then lied to you guys again about Harris leading in the polls in 2024 lol. Not sure if you guys knew but we all know there's immediate pain with these tariffs but in the long run, we should come out on top. I get you guys are emotional and don't like Trump but the reality is that USA doesn't need Mexico or Canada but they need the USA. Mexico and Canada's exports are 70-80% to the USA while we only export 13-14% to them. This means most of their economy relies on the USA and only a small of ours rely on theirs.

I think Trudeau missed the memo on what reciprocal tariffs mean! By the way we don't need Canadas energy when they Say they're going to so-called turn off the energy to America that means literally nothing five minutes of research will tell you that the United States does not need Canadas energy! Absolute empty threat!\n\nBy the way to anybody in the comments section that doesn't know what they're talking about and just listens to cnn so far these tariffs have secured 1.7 trillion US dollars in just three months brought manufacturing back to the United States honda is now leaving their location in Canada and building in the United States same with American car manufacturers in Mexico. \n\nWe won and I find this so funny you guys are flipping out we have socalled Americans joining Canada's side just because they're anti Trump. absolute clowns!

signals to the world that U.S. commitments mean nothing.\nthey are the worst ally ever.

Lindt the swiss chocolate factory has a factory in the usa which supplied their chocolate to usa and canada, they have spoken and acted, They have increased their production in europe for canada so canadians will not be paying tarriff/taxes on their chocolate, the factory in usa will decrease production, job losses which means people will also lose health insurances as well, there is only one person to blame for this america, rise up now

The price of lumber and housing will go up like crazy now. The Canadian border isnt porous unless you are saying our border guard cant do there job. That means we are weak , not them.

Canada's only got a 63,000 soldiers that isn't enough to protect Maryland let alone Canada we get billions of dollars to protect a foreign country and never asked anything in return Donald Trump ask Canada to help secure the border on Canada side and they are complaining throwing a hissy fit it would be one thing if Canada was providing for itself without the United States. And refused to do such a small little task. \n\nBut when we are giving billions of dollars to Canada's defense and they throw such a hissy fit over a little bitty test it's time to stop all trade with them. \n\nThe armed citizens of the United States to invade Canada, I mean think about it. 63.000 soldiers is all that's protecting Canada \n\nIt would be absolutely nothing for the US citizens to take Canada less than 1% of the firearms in the United States

The United States? No you mean Donald Duck!?

This idiot already quit, no one is listening to anything Trudeau has to say. Tariffs on the Americans only costs Canadians more, tariffs on Canadians make Canadians pay more. So you see, Liberals have to go, then tariffs go away. CANADA CAN NOT SURVIVE WITHOUT AMERICAN MARKETS LET THAT SINK IN. Cancelled pipeline, not paying up in NATO, not stopping drug flow, not fair in trade to the USA 200 billion in difference, you see the Liberals are in panic mode and its all their fault starting with his word salad speechs that mean nothing.

JJ is panicking. This mean Trump is doing a great job.

Wait… I thought tariffs would hurt American consumers… that’s what all the liberal media outlets said. You mean, it affects the leader of another country too?? Why would JT be mad about American consumers paying more for Canadian products??? Someone must be lying?? could it be the liberals?

It's difficult, I mean Canadians' disgust, insult and anger at all of these completely unwarranted tariffs is not directed at the American people, it's at the crass, unhinged baffoon Trump who has enacted them, and yet (and this is where it gets difficult) over half of you voted for this obscene idiot as your president! How it is that there would ever been more than a dozen people who would vote for Trump is beyond me; he is NOT an honorable person and has not one redeeming quality. He is a vile, snorting pig, and no, I'm not insulting him, I'm describing him. He has to go.

This is a speech, someone from my country should learn what courage means

I understand that U.S. needs to balance its books, but that doesn't mean forcing others to pay in an no-one-wins scenario.

I AM CANADIAN WE LOVE AND GET ALONG WITH ARE AMERICAN FRIENDS BUT YOUR LEADER MUSK SORRY I MEAN TRUMP ARE THE BAD GUYS TRUMP WILL LIE TO JUST TO SAVE HIS SOUL FOR 8 YEARS TRUMP HAS DONE NOTHING BUT LIE TO YOU AND THE WORLD FOR SOME REASON MANY AMERICANS LISTEN AND BELIEVE TRUMP MOSTLY MAGA VOTERS EVERY BODY WILL PAY THE PRICE BUT NOT TRUMP MUSK AND ALL THERE RICH FRIENDS THEY ONLY WANT TO CONTROL EVERY THING TRUMP IS ONLY ABOUT MONEY THATS ALL HE WANTS THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE WORLD TO STAND UP TO TRUMP AND THE GOP, TO THE GOP IF YOU ARE AFRAID OF TRUMP QUIT
