If you think of the past , Hitler wanted to take over Europe it ended in WAR , Putin wants to take over Ukraine with a WAR , Trump Wants to take over Canada , Gaza, Greenland, Panama Canal ? Is it possible Trump wants a war

Look at what is happening. Europe is welcoming Canada into their trading block with open arms. Where is the US turning to? Russia. The irony is that Putin hates the West, always has , and he hates the US in particular. I agree with Clark. Trump’s getting played and he doesn’t even know it. He’s got a lot of $$ in Russian banks and is in Putin’s pocket. When are the Dems going to get loud and get rid of this guy? He is definitely compromised.

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.

I thought trump would be different this time around. I was really hoping for his success, but not more than two months into his presidency he fired the very people that voted for him around the board. He crashed the stock market. He became Putins puppet, and he showed the world what a bully is like.

Comrade Trump he's not the red in the bed he's the red in the White house and you'll be flying the Russian over it and the Lincoln memorial will soon have a statue of Putin sitting there!

I Don,t think Americans REALIZE what they are doing to THEMSELVES...Trump doesn,t care about you or anyone for that matter. He has his 500 Billion mineral deal eith Ukraine. He forced poor soul, Zelensky to sign this deal today...Just when this Guy is at his most vulnerable situation with Ukraine. So it is all about ??...no one will be saved in the long run...Because there will be NO military back up, if Russia will attack again after all minerals, have been excavated...So Trump is just as evil as his twin-brother Putin.

If the plan was to unite all these countries together as one ! Why not ? Why are we fighting anyways, again ? Why don't we all get along !? I'm just thinking out loud here, if Putin, Trump, Trudeau, freekin Kim and the reste juste once and for all say you know what the earth doesn't belong to any of us, no more spreading religious thoughts and no more I'm right you are not ! Just live and let live ! The idea is to live the moment and stop thinking of the past ! This instant, right now is what is important. Stop acting like babys, kids that bully other kids ! I just can't beleive we are still fighting !

Trump is a shadow of Putin dictatorship.

Trump was KBG boy working with Putin against Europe even his own country ..Trump had a relationship with Russian girl ........in 80s ...this is why Trump is a puppet of Putin right now ..

Trump WORKS FOR PUTIN. Get it through your Heads.

The excuses for implementing the tariffs by trump were just as absurd as putin’s excuse for invading Ukraine.\nHonestly I wouldn’t have even bothered to implement the border policy because in trump’s la la land. It wouldn’t matter how much Canada did. \nOnce he’s fabricated a reason for anything. It becomes a truth in his head.\ntrump’s a communist sympathiser ?. Figure that one out?\nNext he’ll be sending arms to russia.

Lol Trump just dismantles the US from within. Xi Jingping and Putin are probably opening champagne everyday since trump is in office?

Trump idolizes Putin.\nPutin wanted to invade Ukraine, while Trump wants to invade Canada.

Can not watch this enough. I hope europe and canada can find new ways to work together. We should see this as a chance and not let Trump and Putin compromise the free world.

The big question is what is Putin promising trump

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!

I CANT UNDERSTAND AS TO WHY IS TRUMP TRYING TO MESS UP WHOLE WORLD OR HE THINK HE WILL BRING LASAGNA OUT OF THIS MESS?BUT CANADA SHOULD JUST BE RUSSIA'S ALLY QUICKLY AND FAST.JUST INVITE PUTIN

Never had more respect for the Canadian Prime Minister. I'm elated there's a man in politics, not just any man, but a leading figure , who has the guts to speak frankly! Everyone needs to do this, Trump is siding with a vile dictatorship, he's made a bed with Putin - it's clear as day and it's also clear as day that his government is not a government for the people, but for the nepo-billionaires that it's now made up of. Similar to how the Russian government is made up of oligarchs. Democracy can never be taken for granted, it's something we need to fight for!

Trump, Musk and Vance are Russian Assets! They're trying their best to destroy our economy for Putin! Impeach those maggots! Spread this message!

You Go Trudeau. Well done. Donald is an idiot. Trump is clearly being manipulated by Putin and He's not smart enough to figure it out. I think Putin has something on Trump like a legal issue or something to do with money. Just a quick Question for the people who voted for Trump. Are you still happy with your decision voting for Trump? We have to push Trump out of the White House and in to a prison cell.

Because in the USA everything is for money. Dictator Putin has elected his rascal Trump for the 2nd time.

Trump and Putin really scooping the Nazi Swamp of the Globe

I stand with Canada. What Musk and Trump are foing is sickening: they started a trade war to destroy Canada’s and Mexico’s smaller economies that would help the Musk-Trump regime to violate Canada’s independence, and annex Canada, take Mexico’s government under control, seize Greenland.\nThe 3 world’s dictators, Russia’s Putin, Musk’s and Trump’s new US, and China’s Xi abandoned any pretense of civility, or respect for international laws and agreements.\nThis is the new world of tule of brute force. I never thought that I would live in this nightmare!

Krasnov(Trump) Putins employee in the White House. USA= West Russia.

This is why THE WORLD respects Trudeau. Dumb ass Trump thinks he's genius for imposing tarrif's to their long standing economic partners, but he is ACTUALLY DOING MORE HARM THAN GOOD to the american people. Countries will tarrif back hurting both businesses and the american people he so wish to give a good life to. They are a bunch of clowns who are basically just giving us good television. Americans are not dumb. Trump will keep on twisting and twising the narrative to sell his side of the story, but it's clear as day that the only back Trump has ever got is Putin's. Sadly, America is becoming a lapdog of Russia under Trumps pretentious leadership.

Trump wants to take Greenland and Kanada like Putin that wants to take Europe territories they are the same ?

Trump is puppet dog of the murder and dictator Putin, and Vance is the dog of Trump. God bless they go to hell.

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

Trump ist in erster Linie skrupellos. Und ein Freund des Diktators Putin.

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!!

Trump has destroyed trust in US allies, and it can ont be repaired easy. Trust can be destroyed in minutes, but it takes many years, maybe decades, before it can be gained again. It affects not only what US experiences right now with Canada and Mexico. Be sure that even Taiwan Australia and all other Asian allies are questioning right now if USA can be trusted. Imagine, Trumps breaks a treaty with Canada and Mexico which he personally has established in his first presidency and sold to his people as the greatest deal that has ever been archieved. Tells you a lot about US credebility. Trump is right now destroing world order which has been established mainly by USA after WW2.\nI heared, that there are rumors, that Trump might be a Russian KGB agent since 1987. I don't know if that is true, but it would explain a lot of why Trump is acting as he does - it is not in the interest of USA, pressurizing/blackmailing/offending/humiliating US allies and destroying US and foreign economies. This is practically enacting a wishlist of foreign dictators like Putin and Xi Chin Ping.\nIt certainly will not make America great again, but poorer, weaker and internationally isolated. it will be US people that will suffer the most.

Why mention Putin? Its mor3 scary that Trump wants a resort in Gaza with the worlds devil bibi Netanyahu. Condoning genocide and apartheid!!!

The reopening of coal mines, oil rigs, wells, refineries, and power plants, along with the return of several companies to the United States similar to the trends observed during Trump's first term, indicates a positive outlook for job creation. For the first time in many years, we have reopened America to mineral mining opportunities, Zelensky's supporters are beginning to turn against him regarding negotiations for assistance in the Ukraine conflict. Engaging in discussions with Putin to reach an agreement aimed at halting the war should not be misconstrued as forming an alliance with him; rather, it is a pragmatic approach. In diplomacy, it is common to negotiate with individuals one may not personally favor, this will lead to a Huge Mineral rights deal

To all moronic Americans look and learn - Trudeau is a true statesman. You have Trump and love Putin. We loathe all of you for allowing this idiot to get into power.

Proud of our Canadian leadership ?Trump and his administration are trying to destabilize North America. Their end-game is authoritarianism on the model of Russia itself. Apparently Putin never speaks about Canada, just as he never used to utter the name of Navalny... Curious...

The trade war is just the begining. Trump will use the fentanyl crisis and lie to people that Canada does nothing to prevent trafficking this drug. And how Trumpo will want to protect his beloved country? By sending army to the border with Canada. And then? Well maby an intervention on Canadas land? Trump loves Putin, Hitler. And they did the same as decribed above. By the end of 2025 we will have a 3rd world war.

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! ???????????????????????????????????????? ??????

Wow, Trump is making some huge progress for the USA, in less than a month he has upset more countries, of which were mostly allies of America, and turned them into anti Americans and all in less than a month, and he calls that progress into making America great again .. maga ? Really or maybe it stands for making a globe angry. There’s only a very small handful of people that actually like Trump, that’s his family (debatable) JD (his puppet) and Putin (his new ally) wow America what have you done ??

trump is becoming the next putin, get all the billionares and people like netaanyahu on his side and then attack his own people and his allies, trump should of supoprted gaza but that would never happen in a million years because america is a lapdog of israel ( which will never be a country ) the world will always resist and fight back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent coverage of one of the greatest tragedies perpetrated on the American people by its leader. I strongly take issue with the Wall Street Journal opinion of Donald Trump, being a smart man. Only a flaming idiot would let Vladimir Putin play them like a puppet. God bless Canada and it’s unbelievably understanding beautiful people who’s empathy is boundless and God bless Justin Trudeau, who will be unbelievably missed on the world stage and as a beloved, American, cousin, and dear neighbor‼️

Donald is a convicted felon so I’m hardly surprised that he’s robbing tax payers blind and leaving the security and economic stability of the US off his priority list. He’s there to sifen as much money as possible until he’s kicked out or until he has enough to buy Gaza, and whatever portion of Ukraine Putin has promised him if he lets Russia win. All this is to in four years use the money he stole to build Trump Resorts ?️ on both plots of land and be hailed as an intelligent businessman by people who refuse to pick up a book ?

I am an American in Alabama. I do not support trump, and I apologize for his horrid actions. What he is doing is not in the best interest of the US, but in support of Putin.

Putin has so obviously told Trump to distance himself from all democratically elected countries and processes and rule like he does with an authoritarian regime. Have elections yes - but with results already arranged to win.\nTrump then does not need to listen to these democracies because he takes control and keeps it. Has nothing to do with drugs, or stockmarkets, it's to do with power and keeping it. We all know he lies, lies and lies - so never take his rhetoric as correct.

Trudeau can shove his talk to Americans! We aren’t idiots that he appears to treat Canadians as! \nTrudeau is in the hands of China! It is so obvious he looks completely pathetic! We know that only 1% of shipping containers coming into Canada are screened! Think you might want to check those “Containers” Justin! If there’s one thing that Americans have learned, “Liberals Lie”! They do it constantly! Oh and Justine, that’s “President Trump” to you, you pos! \nAt no time has Trump kissed up to Putin! You have to talk to both Parties when trying for peace! You can’t ignore one side in a war! Trudeau is a corrupt lying creep! Are you still wearing the friendship Bracelets from Brittany Spears Concert?! Soon you will be forgotten among Canadians and the rest of the World!

President trump just did a huge achievement, US president is not any more the leader of the free world, US is not anymore in the free world leadership, broken 100 years of friendship and alliance. \nHuge achievement endeed!!, now US is on the side of Putin, a criminal dictator, who is being supported by China, North Korea and Belorussia.

Let me tell you USA and Canada you're allies and your haters Putin and Shigiping are gonna benefit from this think wise, Trump, Putin doesn't love you he's just using you.

Once Trump chose to back Putin, he lost the privilege to represent the American people.

True words.....watching from Germany and cross my fingers for all Canadians. Looking forward what happend in Europe in the next days.......crazy times , but we'll get through this together and face all the Trumps and Putins that we are stronger

Losing Canada as an ally is the lease concern for Trump most importantly he has please Russia (Putin) as his master. Congrats to the electorate that voted for Trump for making the best choice . Trump best president ever ???.

Obviously that dumb fool is taking orders directly from Putin to destroy the US from within, as exact revenge for what America did previously to break down the Russia. Trump has sold the US to Russia for all that he cared!!!
