Honestly, they are great people and I think they bring a lot of culture and family orientation back to Canada I feel like it’s roots. I mean, we are the first generation with cell phones so things aren’t gonna go well for the first generation so I hope to see change in the next, but I really hate the racism. Because at the end of the day, this world belongs to all of us. I’m married to a Punjab. And I’m very thankful I met him feel like a lot of Canadian men. Have become victims to the red pill ideology or cell phones are really just becoming a part of their ideologies. Indian families bring back real love and authenticity. My only problem is the criminals that are coming into the country that are hurting people when we already have enough problems in our own country.

I stand with the rest the world as they stand up to this maniac when our own people won't. It's gonna hurt, but we did this to ourselves. Thanks, MAGA. ?

as a candian i know its gonna hurt but elbows up turmp wants to go lets go

I don’t agree with Trump but I’m trying to understand this….So he (Trudeau) punishes his own nation with carbon tariffs then tells his nation how tough it’s gonna be now that a foreign president applies tariffs…I’m sorry I just don’t get it…instead of starting a fight that will hurt us even more, why don’t he just let go of the carbon tax to help the suffering…\nIs he actually care or is it just politics ?

K, so you’re gonna stop the carbon tax now then, right?????? \nlol\nI didn’t think so. This guy is so full of it. He is the reason why we are suffering as a country. Not Donald Trump. Donald is just looking out for his own country. It’ll help them, it’ll hurt us because you’re gonna let it hurt us. We are already taxed in every humanly way possible. What’s next? I’m sure you’ll think of something to tax. \nThis man has ruined what’s left of Canada. Don’t fall for this rhetoric little speech people. \nOpen your minds and eyes!

Shill and suck for putin bc hes scary but strong arm, tariff, and insult our closest allies. We sold out to the kremlin. Yall voted for russian commie sympathizing losers thatre gonna ruin our economy. Good job. Mexico and Canada will still produce these things, theyll just sell them to a dofferent country with no tariffs, and tariff what they do sell us. This only hurts and undermines america and american interests, it helps our allies and enemies while simultaneously furthering our allies and alienating them from us. Its brain dead.

Trump don't care He don't care about that. That's just the Trojan-horse. So you don't pay attention of what he's doing. He's just hurting, he's gonna hurt. The Americans first and definitely never going to get Canada. Because if we gotta do World War 3. Come on, we'll play the game. We'll put our cards on the table. Trump

Hmmmm.... If this isn't going to hurt Canada at all and only hurt the US (ie helping Canada) then why is Trudeau so upset? I think I'm gonna let this one ride out and see how things play out. Trump is a brilliant businessman as is Musk and they understand economics like no other. I am thinking there is more to this than what Trudea is saying.

We have already been giving billions of dollars to foreign countries. So how is this gonna hurt Americans if we not hurting already? As you can see America and the president is tired of being used. Trump said this years ago before thinking about running for president. Everybody is benefiting of American Citizens except the citizens themselves. Unless you are a government official or politician.

As an American, let me respond with, I don't need anything Canada is exporting. Pretty sure this will hurt Canadians far more than it's gonna hurt Americans. For those of you on here that might not grasp the situation, Canada has a higher value of exports into America than America has exports into Canada by over $100 Billion. Good Luck Canada.

We are a small country population wise here in Canada but we are rich. We will endure this but it is gonna hurt. Hard to increase our military spending as asked by The Donald when he is slapping tariffs on us.

Lady, this is gonna hurt the US worse than Canada...we will find new trade partners...NO ONE but Russia wants anything to do with your country now

Wake. Up America. This stuff is gonna hurt. Trump. Does not have our best interests in mind.

It's gonna hurt all of us. : ( The economy was coming back around since Covid. By the end of 2024, I felt it and was feeling optimistic I can't believe this is happening now. Ugh.

This is gonna hurt all Americans not some Americans and believe me other countries are feeling the same way about United States like Canada. We’re losing all our lives.

I do believe that doing this to Canada is gonna hurt us badly...

If he really wanted to protect the people then why start AFTER the fact. He does this only because it’s gonna hurt but under Biden NOTHING was being done.

You dont scare us you idiot do what you gotta do you are like Ukraine want our money and protection for nothing thats over with its gonna hurt you alot worse than us do what you got to do you fool we don't need Canada

That's only gonna hurt the average canadians and make the government more money ,

That’s right stand up for your country president Trudeau. Donald Trump is a big ass liar. I have been to Canada several times. And I know for a fact it’s gonna be very very very very hard to bring drugs up out of Canada to United States. Canada is a wonderful lovely country. You’re doing right not to deal with a evil man. He’s just using the Tarniff law to try to put extra money in his pocket and they trying to con the other countries out of their money.Lying to the American people make them think it’s another reason why he’s doing the Tarniff law . He’s a habitual liar, and a con man and a thief.I wouldn’t do no business with him at all he cannot be trusted. If a man will betrade his own country he will betrade anybody. Who ever in United States they pick up a gun or try to hurt the Canadians any kind of way it’s a damn fool. In the truck started a war with Canada with him in office I would rather fight for Canada then fight for him

I am wondering if Fox is gonna show this speech, and how about Newsmax and, the other one that I right now don't remember, I really hope the Americans who voted for trump see how a real leader talks and behaves and I also hope that people realize that this president is hurting every single American Citizen, these tariffs will not help our country it will make it so much harder for every person in The USA to make a decent living. Please don't forget about this NOT NOW NOT EVER.

It's gonna hurt, but WE are ready! We are one ❤ Canada

This is gonna hurt the whole world and that’s what all the intentions are. He is a control monger. I hate to disappoint him. We all come on the Earth, the same way kicking peeing pooping ourselves with nothing guess what we leave the Earth the same way. Nothing makes anybody better than anyone else and until the people on this planet learned that this is gonna go on and on because this shit you don’t learn from it. It just continues to come every 40 years or so. We’re supposed to learn from our history, not repeat it. It’s ridiculous.

I’m telling you this it’s gonna hurt you more than us and see us “hurt” wym by those comments?

90% of Canada's exports are to America and 10% America ?? to Canada ?? \n\nWho's butt hurt and preaching equality but never was Equal and the disrespect of Trudeau it's gonna get worse till he's out ❤

Trudeau is doing what needs to be done. It's gonna hurt as an American, but I know it's my own country that is stabbing us in the back.

Don't think the US consumer really understands how much these tariffs are gonna hurt them

This is HEARTBREAKING, because Trudeau is speaking to EVERYONE like a leader SHOULD!!! He left NO doubt how much he cares about his fellow citizens, and that their government will help them as much as they can!! \nThis is what AMERICANS dream about, a leader that cares about us!!! We wish and pray that our leader looked and spoke like that!!! \nCANADA is showing the WORLD what TRUE LEADERSHIP LOOKS LIKE!!! It's HEARTBREAKING for ALL the Canadian and American people that are gonna feel the pain, and NOT the BILLIONAIRES that are INTENTIONALLY hurting ALL Americans. \n\nI had a tear in my eye, because of the overwhelming pride I had for Canada and Trudeau!! \nAmericans are hanging their heads in embarrassment!!! \nGo Canada!!????\nGo Ukraine!!????

Haha America is NOT hurt at all, but Canada is. We have given trillions of our tax gollars to Canada for no reason, Canada wants the USA to give and give and take and take, but now you’re gonna pay up, only uneducated people are influenced be the trash spewing spouting out of this man’s mouth, we want our money back, I think we should take Canada by FORCE and show you there is nothing you can do!!!

There's many reasons not to like Trudeau up here in Canada, many of which are the reason he'll (rightfully) no longer be the PM next week. As a conservative I hated him for SNC-Lavalin (among other scandals), and the fact that his inexperience with the economy Harper left him is probably part of why this trade war is going to hurt more than it could have, and the fact that he's often been kind of a phony more concerned with looking and sounding good for the press cameras. Not this time. Nothing phony here; I've got to give credit to him for capturing the national mood pretty much perfectly with this speech. Good on him. \n\nAnd congratulations as well to Donald for pretty much handing the Liberals their best shot at a fourth term, too. What an absolute idiot. Normally I'd turn my nose up at having to vote Liberal, but I am so, so sick of the brand of empty populism Trump stands for that it looks like that's what I'm gonna be doing come election time.

This guy is an idiot and I’m sorry Canada that you have them as your Prime Minister say what you want about Trump. This guy is definitely a disgrace with no backbone of his own. He just looks like a sad, pathetic man. Why would you want him running your country he looks weak. He speaks weak. All he’s gonna do is hurt your country.

This only gonna hurt the working people, how does this help anyone . It only benefits the government

The free world has been hurting trump friends for the last 3 years, so now he is in office he's gonna hurt the free world.

Gonna Hurt Canadians Way More than the USA!! ❤️??

I’m American, and as hurtful it is to say that, because I know it’s gonna affect me. I stand with Canada. I would do the same. This is a disgraceful administration we are now.

All the Democratic losers Canada is a tool along with governor Justin .. and it’s gonna hurt Canada a lot more than it’s gonna hurt us ???

Trump , vance and Musk , are not very smart , \nby open trade wars , only the people get hurt on both sides , \nand if USA go after europ then usa will loose even more , \nUsa need us as much as we need them , and Trump \nshould start thinking , becosue americans are loosing power as well \nmust of in europe dont see USA as western leadership anymore , \nthat eneded when people of USA was stupid enough to vote for trump and \nvance , we warned USA people this would happent and still they voted trump \nand now you want us to stand with you ,,,, honestly we have a saying that goes like this \nyou gonna lay in the bed you made , and if you complain about you better redue you bed ! \nSo RNC votes , do you feel the pain the trump a, vance and musk are doing to you , \nif you do then time to remove the idiots from power ! \nand btw , you should rename RNC to RNCC ( Real Northamerica Criminal Consortium)

It ain't good to start this issues,we must focus in bringing global peace,this wars are too much,the trade wars gonna hurt families,unemployment is gonna hike up.The two leaders need to sit down and solve their issues as allies.

Hell yeah Trudeau! The canadian whiskey is gonna hurt though.

How is this gonna hurt Americans is he stupid really, he more scared hurting then we are and also maybe they need to fix the bs of if you have a dui in usa and did your time , they can recharge yoi with it there and thats stupid , Canada get your crap right

Your gonna get hurt out there my man’s get outta NYC you don’t belong

Wow is this ever gonna stop hold new York accountable, I get hurt by illegals or sick I am sue in New York and all sanctuary cities.

Most don’t get it. Sure, it’s gonna hurt, at first. Growing pains. America doesn’t need anyone. We will be stronger being self sufficient. It’ll take a bit but we will come out stronger and better.

Colombia and these other countries aren't gonna be paying for these tariffs so I don't know what kind of threat this is to Columbia. Tariffs, they're gonna hurt the American people and nobody else!

People in these comments are on some serious copium. Y’all actin like coffee prices are gonna be a big problem because you have nothing negative to say about what Trump did. Like y’all give a shit when you go to Starbucks and spend $8 on a coffee already, or is it more? This hurts then more than it would hurt us btw, that’s why they folded so easily. Trump knew they would fold easily. Btw we can get coffee somewhere else if you truly need coffee to love you can probably drink espresso too. I buy a brand imported from Italy

Trump is doing this stuff out of spite not to help America but to try and hurt foreign countries trying to force them to do the things he wants. Trumps spite is gonna effect the USA citizens pockets we are gonna pay higher prices on the goods now. Yall his supporters talking about yall want something different in a president OKAY YALL GOT WHAT YOU WANT TRUMP IS GONNA HURT YALL WAY OF LIVING ALSO.

And so, he is just pretty much making Colombian coffee expensive for no reason at all in response to Colombia rejecting his US military flights full of immigrants. Like......what the hell, dude? What. The. Hell? Well, uhhhh......of course it's not gonna Colombia at all really. But uhhhh......\n\nIt will REALLY just only hurt the United States of America for the time being. Yep. He is hurting the very same country that he is supposed to properly govern right now, ladies and gentlemen. OK, now, he can just now even try applying economic pressure to Mexico and Canada to try and get what he personally wants. BUT in the end, it's gonna make their own products even expensive as well. So uhhhhhh, if I were Trump right now, I would just seriously put a complete stop to all of this AND start doing my job right for once.

I’m amazed he thinks this will hurt Columbia more than us. Where are we gonna grow our own coffee when the price goes up? The tropical rainforests of Utah?

It's not gonna hurt Colombia. All they're goin to do is find somebody else to trade with. Plain and simple
