I know these people just want better lives but how would they feel if they woke up to millions of white people in India one day. All of our BS in our culture. They would not be so friendly. The Libs have destroyed Canada. They control every form of media and all the morons here eat it right up. Hopefully Trump takes them all out.

I felt for them Canadians, especially seeing that 19th century church being converted into a Caste-Hindu temple, no bad opinion about sikhs.. they r friendly people tortured by Caste-Hindus back in the 80's in india which lead to their mass migration for safety and Canadians helped them. Sikhs must responsibly protect Canadian values and their own community from Caste-Hindu menace especially because they openly support Imbeciles like Trump and Modi.

trump is saying 'we're not friends anymore'. That's it. The message is clear.

Good job , Well done ,Canada..Trump is creating Friends into enemies and enemies into My friend Putin .. is very clever .... The people of America have been taken for a ride by Red Headed Trump.

Support to Canda from Chile ??. I have friends and I do business in Canada and the US, even I liked Trump, but now things just became crazy with the US government.

As US citizen, I say God Bless Canada. Those who voted for Trump deserve what is coming. Canada deserves better friends than us.

When it comes to trade aggreement if you want to be in a position where you have the maximum advantage you have to do the not so friendly but the right thing. Donald Trump is a business man so this is not a surprise.

Hi to all the people in Canada the British people are with you, Trump has pissed off its best ally and that's the British, he has upset our long term friends & ally which is Canada - that's the people and country we in England have massive respect & love for, I don't think Trump is doing a good job right now! ?

Thank you president Trudeau for calling Poetin a lying murderer what he is. And for striking back to Trump and not appeasing him like the coward Republicans do. Thank you for joining the ‘meeting of the willing’ in the UK. Love from your friends in the Netherlands. You are truly a great leader. ❤❤❤❤❤ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This Tarriff thing would only work, if the US is able to be 100% self sufficient. Which is impossible. We will always need goods that dont originate in the US. And its better to have friends than enemies. This could be Trumps demise. And will have zero effect on Fentanyl.

I am Australian and happy to see Trump win the election but boy I didn't expect these dictatorial policies against the friendly world except against the criminal Putin. Wow!

Americans, wake up to yourselves. You all knew Trump and his family are corrupt, you all knew his fellow Americans have found him guilty of federal crimes, including rape, and you all knew his intention to follow the so-called “Project 2025.” You all knew that Vance is a man-child, too. You knew Trump’s family profited from corrupt pork barrel dealings that grew out of his first term as your president. You knew he has a penchant to be an autocrat, like his friend in North Korea and the other ghastly dictator in Russia. You knew his intentions on the world stage. And you knew Trump’s mind has failed. Still, most of you actively chose to reinstall that monster in your highest office. You have replaced the king your forefathers fought, killed and died to remove from ruling the new territories that were to be created to be free of dictatorial power - something your grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters, and your own good selves have killed and died to protect! Still, most of you chose to put this poor imitation of a man into your presidency. Soon you will look around and realise you are losing serious respect and dignity, allies and meaningful friends. And you will have done this to yourselves.

friends dont tax friends on imported goods the media fails to realize these are retaliation tariffs from trump we didn't start the trade war they did and i hope their economy collapses because of it

All trump hears is a begging Trudeau. US launches a trade war and they still consider them friends and allies lol. Sound like a mobster afraid of the Don lol

Now that's a man talking a lot of sense. unlike Trump Musk and his other brain dead friends

Trump wants peace with putin that's well okay but some old friend doesn't agree to that ! So \nAmerica ❤ Russia VS other countries who were not willing to be friends with them which means no peace

US citizen here retired and living in SE Asia. Trump, Musk, Vance and the enabling cowardly Republicans in congress are traitors destroying the US from within for the benefit of Putin, just as Khrushchev foretold in the 1950s. Trump and his enablers are the real enemy of the US!! Canada is our best friend. Let's hope something can be done to stop this convicted felon and rapist!! Sorry we have such assholes in power in the US!!

Put tariffs on goods Canada sends to RED states. If the Republican voters start to feel the pinch they miiiight grow a braun cell and realize Trump has never been a friend to the US

The racist and the racist whites and blacks and all other racist in the United States voted for this guy and corrupted their friends who were innocent and didn’t know who to follow brainwashed them to vote for dump trump and you see the things he do and being good friends with Putin and the United States are stuck with him for another 3-4 years that’s how bad it is in most parts of America welcome to corrupt freedom and there it is but hello to our friends who still stand for democracy and the real presidents that run the country the right way we still follow behind you Obama Biden Kamala Harris and the other Democrats and not delusional republicans to stand against dictators and evil corrupt officials and evil corrupt people in this world! ???????????????????????????????????????? ??????

I can't stand CNN = Communist News Network, and I don't care for Trueau but I'm going to have to stand with him on this. Trump is being absolutely rediculous that is going to hurt the poor and working class poor in both countries, Canada as well as America. I sincerely appologize to the Canadian people because my President who said he would make America great again has instead lost his mind and has went off on some insane tangent that will not hurt him or his rich friends (On both sides of the political fence).....Now Mexico that is where the garbage is coming from.

Trump is isolating his friends of the world like Mexico, China and Canada and kissing Putins arse . People this could lead to some idiot pushing some buttons like that idiot in Korea or Russia . Japan is in danger as well as the Ukraine . The USA used to fight for democracy and now trump wants the Ukraine to surrender to Putin .

I'm English, I don't know that Canada has any enemies around the world to be honest. The US is trying to control any neighbouring land and building a wall around itself in exactly the way Russia did. Look how quickly Trump has made all these changed. He aligns himself with Dictators and attacks his friends. Trump is literally alienating the worlds allies. There is no longer a leader of the free world. Watch this space.

I am a staunch republican. But I believe Trump is seriously harming U.S. \nCanada is our friends and allies and he launches tariff attacks on them?!?!

Trump sustains a communist Country ? WTF ? And Trump’s voters say that French people are socialists ??? Sorry that makes me laugh and by the same Time I am terrified. Wake up my friends, wake up

U GUYS HAVE INFLICTED 25% TARIFFS WHATS WRONG WITH SAYING A WORD DUMB.... UR ACTIONS HAS REFERENCE IT AS DUMB ALREADY.. DONALD TRUMP WAS DOING FKING DUMB THINGS...... JUSTIN TRUDEAU HAS SAID DUMB IS THE MOST LIGHTWEIGHT RESPECTFUL WORDS FOR DONALD TRUMP, FRIENDS WILL SAYS THAT TOO.....

Trump destroys his own friends .america is nothing without British commonwealth. And he will learn that when he meets with King Charles.

Wannabe dictator and Putler-loving Trump is insane, picking a trade war with his closest neighbors, allies and friends yet sucking up to and appeasing The Monster From Moscow. America what have you done.

Who is a friend of America? Canada. Who is an enemy of America? Russia. Who is a friend of Trump? Putin.

For trump, Canada and Europe are enemies but ruzzia is a friendly country. How can it be? How stupid some americans can be to believe in these?\ntrump is a ruzzian active agent since 2012. His now taking US as dictator.\nDon't buy any US brand or maded product, specially tesla and starlink.\nUS is enemy with trump, and will be worst. US cannot be trusted for years to come. They let ruzzian got power in their own country. They put trump in power today, and tomorrow who will be? They are only 300M people, and half are against this, lets fight this brainless people.\nI'm European, I'm with Canada.

Putin and Russia are no longer the huge superpower they were, look at China, Europe and India all with much greater military and economies than Russia yet Trump is appeasing Putin and fighting its friends and in China it's largest trading partner it is just mad.

We don’t want this, either. My friends and I are getting more of us to fight Trump! Americans stand with Canada!!

Don't say America say Donald J Trump and his followers. The elected him and the World got Trumped. I stand with our friends Canada, Ukraine and Mexico.

I’m a dual citizen of the USA and the UK and have been so disgusted by Trump, he projects evil, he’s smarmy and egotistical. I just don’t understand how many of my American friends act like he’s right up there with God, I just can’t fathom their thinking. It’s all about taking ownership of anything he wants and he bullies until he gets what he wants. I’m sick of people saying Pres Zelenskyy needs to apology to Trump, Zelenskyy did nothing wrong, he was calm and polite. Vance and Trump immediately went in on the attack, both bullies! Then to moan about Zelenskyy offending the Oval Office by not wearing a suit. Have they looked at Musk lately? Don’t know what he’s wearing but it ain’t no suit. During war times leaders often wear combat clothes to show they are with their country and soldiers. I must say I wouldn’t be upset if anyone popped him off! He does need to go.

From Texas, Trump is acting like a 5-year-old child. Canada has always been our closest ally; these tariffs are a slap in the face that will harm not only working class American, but it also spits on generations of close friendship and trust between our countries. This is lunacy. I pray for all of our Canadian friends and for all Americans.

Grettings from the beautiful and great Garden State NJ??thanks Canada, this guy Trump has some good ideas but at the same time he has a bunch of bad perceptions of the world where we lived, our allies are our friends not our enemies!

We, reasonable Americans, support you - our friends and neighbors! Bravo! Trump needs to stop his recklessness and STUPIDITY!

Donald trump Is just bullying the Canadian And and doing a friendly extortion He don't know how to run a government He should get out of office Canada stands strong God bless Canada And the citizens of United States Donald White house

It is no longer a secret. President Donald Trump is a Russian Asset. He's openly destroying American Allies and closest friends while getting extremely close to Russia. Canada is America's closest ally, neighbour, and trading partner, and this is how you're going to treat them. The sooner the American people realizes this and pressure their elected officials to make Donald Trump to reverse course, the less damage this will cost Americans in the long run.

I have wealthy friends who are refusing to go to on holiday to the states while trump is president ??????

Canada as well as Mexico and China will and must fight back! I don't care so much about china, but Mexico and Canada have been our best trading partners and friends and now we have insulted them. We will deserve what we get because we have elected the most stupid president in the history of the United States. Be prepared to pay higher prices all of those of you who voted for this idiot president Trump. Unfortunately the rest of us who were smart and voted for someone else will have to be punished too!

Trump is a new ditactor of USA. Good luck americans. Brazil winner against Bolsonaro. USA LOST TO TRUMP. Good luck my friends

Donald Trump has plan to invade Canada, Mexico and other countries in South America. If he will do it no Russia will support him that why he started make friend with Putin.

If the world would like to depose Trump and friends, more than half the US would stand by and let it happen.

Say it correctly please, the American PEOPLE are NOT enemies of Canada….President Trump and those who voted for him are enemies of Canada. Many Canadians and Americans are being harmed by a president they did not vote for and we don’t want Canadians and Americans who are innocent to suffer. A great day of us Americans want to remain friends with Canadians and are very sad about what is going on.

I effectively spent a chunk of my childhood in America with relatives. I treasured these memories, but now all the feelings of wonder and happiness when thinking of my visits to America have faded. Now I just think of how selfish it was to sabotage Canada. American private equities want to rock our system and buy up all they can and so I am happy we are watching for this. I think Donald did this to try and buy up Canadian companies. This should be made illegal. I am willing to suffer for up to pull the plug on all resources and energy going to America “suddenly” do they have no time to adapt and collectively suffer. We even produce the ingredient you need for your nuclear weapons and otherwise need to get this from Russia. Canada has the ability to help our allies get nuclear weapons to protect against “America as our #1 enemy now”. Will we share too secret info with you when Trump clearly seems to be working with Russia? Putin dream for NATO to break down and now Trump ours that I to action . Trump wants everyone to spend money on military to fuel the American military industrial complex, something each and every huge tech company you have participated. You have essentially been taken over by a global entity that doesn’t care about democracy. We are going to manufacture our own weapons to have zero dependency on America. That makes no sense to buy weapons from the country threatening to invade you. \n\nHow will America feel to be totally alone in the global stage all under the power of one unstable man with multiple personality disorders. Trump things Putin is Americas friend and meanwhile in Russian media America spoken of as enemy number one. Meanwhile, America is 30% full of people with such little education in politics that they do not even know what is considered red flags to democracy. The 20% needed to shift will see the light once the worst man made intentional recession begins and the billionaires buy up 30% of your homes and buildings. Nothing at all will be outside of billionaire and corporate control and now all your data is in AI. how did all American value fall in just one month. Anyone not questioning this now, ai promise you is being blackmailed or is corrupt. \n\nThe bureaucracy prevents dictatorship. Now Trump is removing this. Just listen to project 2025. America is fully on track.

Some excellent leadership from Mr Trudeau there. Much respect from your UK friends. Intelligence and truth - two things Trump is incapable of. The US will find themselves down the line with one friend only - Russia - who will then eventually screw over the US as they always have. Trump is a disaster for the US, and the wider world. The world is starting to turn their back on the US, as the US is doing to the world.

At this present time and in this current governmental climate, I do believe that changing a leader now would hurt Canada. Trudeau has first hand experience and has dealt with Trump and his tantrums, this isn’t Trudeau’s first rodeo. I am concerned with Trump antics another leader could be influenced with charm and falsehoods which Trudeau has already confidently stood up against.\nAnd for a moment, let’s think a little bit further out of the box. This isn’t about fentanyl as Prime minster Trudeau pointed out. This is about making life for Canadians extremely difficult and chaotic. It’s to bring division between the United States and Canada, and with Trump joking and jokes are not jokes sometimes they become reality Canada being a 51st state. Trump Being friends with Putin, with Russian ships in our Arctic Ocean think on this for a minute. Putin decided to invade Ukraine to expand his make believe empire. President Trump and Vladimir Putin working together. Hasn’t Trump said he wants Canada to be part of the USA and wants our Prime Minister to be a governor how insulting. How very insulting to the Canadian people who not just live in Canada, but are also united Canadians.

Canadian here ????????!! To any Americans reading this comment, my disgust over this whole tariff situation is not on the USA, it’s not Americans, IT’S TRUMP!!! Period!!! There is no doubt millions of you are very angry and embarrassed about what he wants to do. I want our 2 nations to be friends and allies forever. Any animosity between us is just extremely pointless. \n\nI want to thank the Americans who are wishing Canada and us Canadians the best and who are totally against what Trump wants to do!!!

American here. I am on a limited income (Social Security) but I 100% support Canada & what Canada needs to do to counteract the actions of our incompetent, insane 'President'. Go Canada! We not-insane Americans salute you & apologize for our 'Orange Menace'. We look forward to when our governments can be friends again. Our two peoples will always be Friends! (I have family there also.) P.S. The drug issue is a fake issue on the part of the Trump Administration. We all know it's the market that drives illegal drugs-- i.e. our own drug abusers buying this stuff. Cheers, & With Hopes for a Better America. (And Slava Ukraine!)

The UK stands with you Canada. The US under Trump is no friend.
