But my cheaper eggs ?

bro your economy is not even close to that Texas?....

I am very sorry for the damage and suffering that these tariffs and trade wars will cause to people in our two countries, as it is clear that many people are. It is obvious that Donald cares more about himself and his various fantasies than he cares about other people. Unfortunately, he is supported in this by his cabinet, congressional Republicans, and enough ill-intentioned voters to make this our new reality. I hope that there will be a point in the future when life will become friendly again.

US citizen here and I despise the dumpster. Cripple the dumpster for the monster that he is! His base will turn on him and force him out of office!!! The dumpster is knowingly putting America's national security at risk and that is TREASON!!!

Trump's plan is to be a dictator. Tariffs, lack of access to education, lack of affordable healthcare, lack of affordable housing, lack of access to nutritious food causes American's to focus their attention on basic needs Shelter and Food. When American's are repressed they don't have the energy to fight Gov't oppression. This is Russia and China's playbook. Canada and Mexico are being used to achieve this evil goal.

What a speech. So refreshing to hear a leader speaking and addressing the President and the American people. All Canadian should be proud. Go ?? Canada John NZ\nJ

All you traders pack up and you have 5 days to leave this country or else

Well done Canada!

This is really embarrassing as F**K..

I thought the felon Trump was going to bring prices down.?

Will there be tariffs on deez?

Do not back down Canada,

Trump is starting economic warfare with allies. Why is Trump trying to actively harm our relationships with allies around the world. Trump is isolating the US, what a f*cking idiot.

Big Big Big Mistake Mr. Trump!!! ?????????????????????

How likely is for US to separate in different countries and have its own economic rules? I see the beginning of this possibility?

Hey Canada, FAFO! You’ll be in breadlines by next week

I am so embarrassed to be an American right now.....\nI stand with Canada! I would leave America and move to Canada in a second if they'd have me.

This guy doesn't know anything about being a man. He's a politician and a talker. He doesn't know how to wield power or how to be respected... He's a weak man that's just like all the other people that are being pumped out of college a whole bunch of confident idiots that don't have any real grasp on what the world is.

The only possible answer to all of this is that there is no daylight anymore between Trump and Putin, none whatsoever. The only thing stopping or scaling back Trump from taking these measures is when he sees the impact on the markets and consequently impact to his own wealth and that of his billionaire cronies...

True Americans stand with you, Canada, and the rest of the West. We will not falter. We will stay strong. Sic Semper Tyrannis!

Just wait four more years

Spoken (in TWO languages) like a leader who gives a cr@p about his country.

love it.

Well said. No tantrums or bullying.

We're seeing the first scenes of the fall of the American empire. Buckle up.

I rarely speak...yet I should have been there before this happened and voted in the favor of Justin Trudeau. Shocked by fellow people claiming his behavior. But I see he stepped out on his own to own it. I'm a very proud Scientologist and believe in you. I believe in Mr Hubbard yet no one has seen the world to freedom as Trudeau is. All else are speculation and worry of doubt and incapable abilities that help no one. Huh.

Trudeau: We have done -big- bigly things.

Bro i rolled my eyes so hard my lap top fell off the table. ?

Typical CNN spinning the news to the demoncratic side

You go PM Trudeau - America needs you more than Canada needs America. If America wanted to stop drug movement, it should have gone after those drug thugs instead of going after identifiable by color, hard working men, women and children.

He should have done all he was saying now long time ago,

As a Canadian… this man is a moron. Tariffs are taxes. \n\nHe taxes us to death. 1) We have 13% sales tax. \n2) We have 53.53% in income tax. \n3) Average property tax of $7k a year. \n4) 50% capital gains tax\n5) 10% luxury tax on new cars, boats and aircraft\n\n\nHe wants to add more Carbon taxes. \n\nAnd yet, he makes a big fuss over this.\n\nIDIOT.

WOW! THAT'S A LEADER!!!!!????????????????????????????

JUST TWO WORDS TRADE IMBALANCE

What a nauseating twit. Hey Justin...tariffs on American goods are a tax on Canadians! I forgot-- you love taxes, because you're a socialist. You were right when you told Trump Canada can't survive this--because Canada isn't a real country.

Please, here are just some historic tariffs Canada hits America with. \n\nMilk: 270%\nCheese: 245%\nButter: 298%\nChicken: 238%\nSausages: 69.9%\nBarley seed: 57.8%\nBovine/meat: 26.5%\nCars: 25%\nHVAC: 45%\nVacuums: 35%\nCable boxes: 35%\nTVs: 45%\nSteel: 25%\nAluminum: 45%\nCopper: 48%\n\nTake a guess how much financial aide the U.S. sends Canada EVERY YEAR and how much military defense $$$$ we provide?

As an American it’s great to stand with Canada and we should support them, but we need to stand up for ourselves here in the US, we can’t let this happen to our country… what have we become?

With tariffs being an import tax set up to deter local business from buying outside the country, then why put tariffs on american goods save for the 25% that goes directly to the Canadian government ? When we could keep prices down for our businesses and imports, it just seens to bump prices up for the microcosm of businesses and puts money in the hands of our federal government, but directly takes money out of contractors,businesses and so on....\nIf there are no contracts for instance with energy flowing to NY, why not bump the price 5% or 10 % ....

God bless Mr. Justin.

lol

Putin and Xi just laughing it up RN.

HOLD THE LINE! ?? ? ✌️

Mr. Prime Minister I’m a proud Canadian. I know that we are ethical and we have integrity. We complied with the fentanyl issue, but this is not about fentanyl, it’s about something more. Perhaps he wants to do to Canada what Putin did to Ukraine, without the military force, but with the monetary force.

THIS IS A LEADER! This is how a leader should speak. Without an ounce of arrogance but full of factful compassion. Truth be told, Mr Trudeau is one of my favourite leaders of a country. He may have issues, but which leader doesn't right. Look at what Trump is doing now. Great speech, Sir. I feel so proud of ??.

TRUDEAU DIDNT QUIT? WHY WOULD ANYONE LISTEN TO HIM. PS CANADA ORIGINAL WAS OREGON TERRITORY.

Bunch of clowns in the comment section siding with this sellout. People within his own country don’t want him. He screws his own country and is telling the American people what’s good for them! FOH continue screwing your own country and you can leave us alone.

Only Putin and china can benefit from trumps trade war

I am ashamed of our current government. I did not vote for this. Please know this is not what we wanted.

Im so sorry Canada ,?\nMost of us do not agree with this admin....they are a disgrace to our country \ndoing evil to our democracy....we love Canada ????

Still cannot stand Trudeau! And his message or speech is far more out of touch than Ford's in an interview or CNN or BBC.
