Alot of citizens do not want this to go either most of us know rump is a lier acap of a person but for some reason we can get the people to the dog out

I can not say#47 name. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth!!! From the USA!!! America is suffereing because the idiots that put this treasonous person in office!!! God, help us!!! God you know the truth of it all!!!

That's a lot of money. But you know whathe government is? Our worth enemies all the money in the world cannot stop people from traveling into any country. It stars with how you Treat peoples is the supporting the peoples can go.\nA long way

These people don’t know how to shut their mouths….can’t even listen to the press conference\nCNN=worst network

I am American and absolutely loathe what trump is doing, and I'm not alone. Canada is doing the right thing here. Canada - please know that most Americans are on your side.

WAIT FOR IT: In tonight's address to the American people... TRUMP WILL BRAG ABOUT HOW GREAT EVERYTHING and REPUBLICANS will cheer - BUT EVERYONE ELSE KNOWS BETTER!

I would like to know if there is still Americans who believe that Trump is doing a good job in the office?

I’m so embarrassed of my country, the USA, right now. We want you to know many of us do not support Trump!

I dont know. Twice , Ive met Canadians down here in the states. And right off both times they were complete assholes to me. Not just me.but our country The one guy I tried make friendly conversation and I mentioned I was going to a race tomorrow and he goes off on America and their racing , americans and their gasoline.Liked he walk here lmao..what an asshole..just rude ..I dont feel bad for Canada one bit. Both times...ASSHOLES!

We Amreicans stand with Canada and apologize for the reckless government that has hijacked our democracy ! I know the majority of Americans support Canada and all of Europe too.

I am so hurt for what Trump is doing to us. I know it’s not all the Americans. Peace with you my friends ✌???

So, why is it that this guy makes it seem like they haven't been taken advantage of the U.S. since they have been able to! He is also lying about that northern border, too. Russians have been illegally crossing into the U.S. thru Canada for years. I know it as fact bcuz I've met Russian truckers who told me how they originally came to the U.S. via Canada! It's easier up there bcuz that border isn't as secure as the southern border. I guarantee you their statistics for fentynal crossing in via Canada is wrong. Those are just the statistics for the fentynal they caught, not the shit they haven't caught! Tariffs shouldn't have had to be the reason for Canada to do their job. They should have already been doing their job at that border. Trump had to threaten them in order for them to use drones, etc. at the border. They should have been doing that. This shows that they were already taking advantage of the weak ass government who just left office. Maybe he should just become the 51st state to make it all much simpler!

You know what.... He's right

I know why Justin Trudeau resigned but I fear for Canada after he officially leaves.

I sincerely apologize for the MAGA Republicans that appear to have lost their minds. Why so many people support a wannabe dictator, I do not know. Why so many people failed to vote, I do not know. I hope this does not last long. Frankly, it's already gone too far. I live in Minnesota. We as a State we deeply appreciate Canada, our neighbors to the North.

Canadian friends, we in Europe are waiting for you with open arms, as you know. Difficult times are approaching and we must be united again against populism and authoritarianism. They shall not pass!

To this man I say BRAVO BRAVO. GO FOR IT, DONALD DOESN'T RESPECT YOU OR YOUR COUNTRY DON'T BOTHER TO SHOW ANY RESPECT TO A CRIMINAL FELON SEXUAL ASSULTER GREEDY, SELFISH, POWER DRIVEN EGOMANIAC LUNITIC on a revenge tour to hurt America for the crybaby because we didn't vote for him in 2020, very much a applied demented orange poor loser. . THIS so called president trump, and the real PRESIDENT MUSKrat ARE DISRECPECTFUL hate filled idiots that put gold before humans. GO FOR IT, FIGHT BACK AND LET TRUMP KNOW YOU ARE STRONG AND ACTUALLY HAVE A MAJORITY BACKING BY THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES something Donald doesn't have and never did. Donald didn't even get half the votes after 8 years campaigning and all the muskrat money. We respect you and have no respect for maga. GO CANADA.

about drugs and illegal immigrants are clean, i am trust treadeu and i know he have matter house prices in his country. But he must be explained the subsidies that Trump said Canada received in very clean, its true or not. If true why canada not invest back to USA make fair economic as purpose make a trade balance both two country. In fact many factory moved from the usa to canada and USA trade deficit with Canada. SO dumb

As an American, Canada do not back down. EU, do not back down. We get what Trump Elon and Vance along with the MAGA Republicans are doing. We apologize for this respectfully. However hard it becomes on us, we know this entire administration is to blame. Please stay strong in democratic diplomacy. Know many Americans support what needs to be done. I support Ukraine

I don't even know why this president is complaining l, this is good for his country

i dont know what puten got to do with a trade war between canada and the u.s., some people will suck down any shit.

Can we give a shout out to our Canadian hype man in the back of Trudeau nodding in agreement. Apologies, as I dont know his title, but he knows his PM is cooking. Appreciate this professional speech.

I am from Kazakhstan, and we stand with Canada, Ukraine, and Mexico! Unfortunately, our government cannot openly express what we truly think because of our crazy neighbor. We share the longest land border in the world with Russia.\n\nThe only way to achieve peace in the world is to grant freedom to the indigenous nations within Russia, who are enslaved in their own homeland. If Russia were to retreat to its true borders—around Moscow—this world would become a much better place to live.\n\nAs Kazakhs, we know the Russian regime very well. We have been deceived more than once by Russian rulers over the past 200 years, and due to their ruthless policies, we lost more than 70% of our population. They have never lived well, and their goal is to make the whole world suffer just as much as they do.\n\nAll of this chaos and crisis originates from Russia!

And their drug Labs that they discovered that they didn't know that was there all of a sudden how come there's only one person in each drug lab how come there's nobody else that got arrested or you don't hear anymore about that cuz he's guys are involved.

Dallas, Texas here. Talk yo shit Canada!! Let them know you're not backing down

Maybe he should discuss the constant duty fees and border crossing fees for anything shipped from Canada to the USA that have been constantly rising for years; fees that his very own government sets. Maybe he should talk about Canada demanding that anyone that sells anything foodwise to anyone in Canada from the USA has to have a special Safe Food For Canadians Food License or the goods being shipped will be rejected at the US owners cost, seized by the border and held in storage at the US owners cost, and destroyed and billed to the US owner. A license that no one actually needs considering other legal and ethical controls are in place to prevent unsafe foods from crossing the border, but Canada reserves the right to make us pay for one or we suffer consequences. Maybe he should discuss how they left their borders open to migrants, making it much easier for criminal migrants to get into the US. Maybe he should understand that the US has always been bleeding money to Canada on a trade level for about half a century with it getting much worse in the last decade because Canada's government are greedy. Before any of you come at me, keep in mind I work in the food ingredient industry as an order processing, logistics and customs & border crossing and have done so for 15 years. These tariffs were a long time coming and if any of you are on the inside of trade in the manner I am, then you know what I'm saying is true. The US is constantly paying additional tariffs by way of duty fees, customs fees, certain applied taxes (like there is literally a blueberry tax to ship US grown blueberries into Canada to prevent US blueberries from taking over the Canadian blueberry market). The blueberry tax is about 25cents per lb. which drives the price per lb. up for the seller and buyer. You wanna know why Food costs so much? All of the above with a huge side helping of GREED.

I don't think Donald Trump borrowed a shitload of money from the bank and isn't paying the bank like Justin says the deficit will pay for itself I don't know what idiot thinks that but he does he's the reason why we're in trouble if he didn't have this country so screwed up we'd have something to fight with.

I always know the day would come when the fascade of decency the US has put up for centuries would be stripped away and they would be exposed for what they really are. A criminal, gen o cidal, greedy, back stabbing and immoral nation of European colonizers who do not belong to the Americas.?

Canada, Mexico, Germany and other countries who are getting caught up in the orange turd of a president's mess. He's not my president and just so you know I've never voted for him. I'm so embarrassed to be an American right now... I promise 50% of U.S voters are idiots the other half of us understand economics, the importance of allies and we're generally nice/smart people. #trumpsucks

I hope Canadians know that not all U.S. citizens agree with this. Canada has been a great neighbor to the U.S. This is a shame.

Love how he switched to/from sugar-coat mode. We all know who needed the sugarcoating. It wasn't the Canadians. I stand with ?? and the ??. I apologize for the crass buffoon currently living (part-time) in the White House. He's crossing too many boundaries. The people of this continent are angry!

I want the world to know that any American cheering for this is mentally challenged so don't make fun of them.

Like Trudeau, perhaps Trump will impress the world (after all he is a genius you know) by speaking in French and Spanish BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH.

Flump knows that Trudeau & Euro leaders laughed at Flump's arrogance and laziness, behind his back, in the first Flump admin. Example: at a Euro conference Flump did not arrive on time. His handlers lied and said he had been there, although all persons present saw the empty chair and no Flump. Must save face.

we know we hate him here too in america

I am sooooo embarrassed and sorry for what is happening. Please know that we don’t want this

Dear Canadians, \nIt will be extremely painful but I know, without a doubt, that you will NOT bend the knee to trump nor putin. \nYou will overcome and come out stronger without the whims of the United States minority rule where white Americans control the lives and futures of the rest and the cowardice of the republicans that kiss their leader's feet for fear of being primaried by his billionaire master. \nI look forward to seeing you on the other side stronger, prouder, and more independent than you have ever been.\nMy full respect and admiration go to each of you❤\nGodspeed Canada

Yo Trump, Canadians are wild, bro. They may be polite and all but not in a fight. They know how to fight dirty… like really dirty. Buckle up American! Ol’ boy Trump gonna get us in a big mess.

Most of us know not to believe what Trump says about these tariffs (or anything else). He is a scourge to the world. As a US citizen am beyond disgusted that he was able to gain enough votes.?

One thing, the wait is over, no longer hanging over our heads. We know what he really wants our resources, our fresh water, access to the Northwest Passage.\n\nGit 'er done Cannucks, git 'er done.\n???TNSF???

Don't forget: we know what's going on, we know.

How Trudeau stands there with his head bombers lying to the world, he thinks we don't know about what he is trying to do to us, just go away and leave our country alone now he helps Ukraine destroy there country under the NWO right under there noses, everyone should beware of Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney, he tries to make it look like Donad Trump is our enemy knowing it is him himself who plotted against Canada

As an American - I am completely ashamed of this terrible trump administration - clearly trump has no clue & only knows mob tactics to get anything done - I salute Canada for standing up against this clueless trump

You Shouldn't back down. Stand up for what is right. We Know trump LIES. Everything that comes out of his mouth is a LIE. He has his own agenda.

Has Trudeau become more attractive since resigning as PM? lol or is he just bluntly and deliberately screwing Canada up by talking down to Trump like that; knowing it'll become Pierre's problem shortly... lol

I'm European, but I lived in Canada for a couple of months and actually got to see Trudeau speak live in Parliament. He gave a very different speech that day - a eulogy. I did not think then I would ever hear this man this very obviously pissed off. He's like one of those teachers that don't need to shout to show their students they are in big trouble. I don't know if I would vote for him if I was Canadian, but I would certainly be proud of him right now.

Good for Canada!!! We know you dont want to do it but it has to be done!!! You have to do what you have to do. Thank you for having courage to do it. Goooo Canada!!!

Canada is already heading into an economic crisis, and what Trudeau just did might be the final nail in the coffin. This is his last big mistake — and he’ll soon blame Trump’s policies to cover up his own failures.\n\nLet’s be clear: Trump’s tariff policies aren’t some random attack — they’re based on a simple reality: The U.S. doesn’t need Canada. Here’s why:\n\nEconomy Size Comparison:\n\nU.S. GDP (2024): Over $28 trillion\nCanada GDP (2024): Around $2.3 trillion\nThe U.S. economy is more than 12 times larger than Canada’s — the leverage is completely one-sided.\nTrade Imbalance:\n\n75% of Canadian exports go straight to the U.S. — Canada’s economy depends on the American market to survive.\nMeanwhile, only around 12-15% of U.S. exports go to Canada. The U.S. can replace Canadian goods easily through Mexico, Europe, or Asia, but Canada has no backup plan for losing U.S. access.\nPopulation and Consumer Base:\n\nU.S. population: Over 330 million\nCanada: Around 40 million\nThe U.S. is 8 times the market size, meaning American businesses would always prioritize the U.S. market over Canada.\nNatural Resources & Energy:\n\nCanada’s oil, gas, and timber exports rely heavily on U.S. buyers.\nThe U.S. is already the world’s top producer of oil and gas thanks to its shale industry — it can easily survive without Canadian energy.\nCanada, on the other hand, would struggle to find new customers fast enough to avoid collapse.\n\nDefense & Global Influence:\nThe U.S. holds dozens of trade agreements with major powers like the EU, Japan, South Korea, and Mexico.\nCanada’s economy relies heavily on U.S. investment, which could be cut off or redirected if necessary.\nBottom line: Trudeau is dragging Canada into a crisis of his own making. He’s gambling with his country’s economic future, knowing full well that in any economic war with the U.S., Canada loses — fast. When the fallout hits, Trudeau will shift the blame to Trump, but the facts are clear: Canada needs the U.S. far more than the U.S. needs Canada.

TRUDEAR KNOWS ABOUT TOOLS HE A WORTHLESS TOOL
