You're too late, Trudeau. You should have responded back in November. When Trump mentioned it, but you decided to go hiding.\nNow it's your fault.Nobody else to blame but you\nAs a canadian, I am totally disgusted with your response to this!!

The RCMP catches the drug runners and then lets them go. The Canadian Czar is a Trudeau clone. What had taken Trudeau so long to deal with this just for Canadians. JUSTIN TRUDEAU RESIGN. JUSTIN TRUDEAU LEAVE CANADA ALONE. WE NEED AN ELECTION.

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.

Let’s not get it twisted… Trudeau still has to go!!!!

Trudeau is a stupid ,corrupt out-going liberal leader in Canada, gallivanting in Europe and siding with Ukraine!!??? what did you exspect? your neighbor is against everything you sided with, you dumb schmuck liberal and you spent money over seas instead of home!!!??? you deserve to be imprisoned for treason

For all of you GO Canada people. The majority of Canadians oppose what our government is doing. This man has destroyed our economy and done everything he could to stop international trade of LNG and oil by shutting down all pipeline and LNG PROJECTS WE HATE THIS MAN. It is not Trump BAD it is everything Trudeau did above and more that killed us. these Tariffs would mean nothing to us if he hadn’t fiscally destroyed us. We are getting what we deserve. Unfortunately it will lead to destitution of many people. I can’t wait to see his party gone. We are running out of time.

As a Canadian.... screw this clown. Trudeau is a useless lame duck. He has announced his resignation and has no mandate whatsoever to represent us. You call a man names for 8 years, and there are going to be consequences you fool. Of course this isn't about fentanyl. You've prodded a bully and now that bully is responding like bullies do. \nA Canadian election can't possibly come soon enough.

Everybody says they are the friend of the US, until it's time to be fair. To the world, stop being a bunch of children... or don't. But if not, be prepared to suck it up. Be ready to back up your BS. Don't tell us what our government is doing to us, pay attention to what you are doing to us... and have been since the 1950s. Let us be crystal clear, you Canada, along with Europe and others have been enjoying your subsidized lifestyles off our backs. We are done and finally someone in the White House is hearing us. I don't agree with everything he says and does, but I agree with him that this foolishness needs to stop. Stop now. To Trudeau, Buckel up butter cup, put your blackface on and find yourself a cute little dress, maybe entertainment can be the way for you to go. Talk to you in a few years, let's see how this all works out for you. To Canadian's, Last Chance, come be number 51, before the Russia and China split you down the middle like a roast pig. Send your 250 troops to Ukraine, let's see what you and 2000 Europeans can do after you piss off the Russians... because you are right about one thing, they are led by an evil man, who's word is useless and who doesn't give a rat's butt who dies for his glory.... even if it's you and your children. No worries, you don't need those nasty Americans south of the great white north, your good all on your own. I Just sent Trump another $50. Not going to change the world, but it will let him know we are behind him, no matter what the Libs of the world have to say about it.

I think Trudeau is resigning though. How sad. We need good leaders like him. I'm a US citizen and I want Trudeau to remain Prime Minister of Canada. I don't understand why he has to go.

Next steps, Leave Nato, and then invade Canada. What could possibly go wrong? Message to Trump: Canadians actually have lots of guns. Trudeau didn't get them all!

You go, Trudeau and the rest of the great Canadians! As an American, I am ashamed and appalled at the unholy trio of trump, Vance and musk.

He speaks about Putin being a liar, murderous, dictator. He should have a good look in the mirror. Trudeau has been a dictator for the last 9 years in Canada, killing our very own people with his drug laws, taxing people into poverty, destroying our healthcare system, I could go on and on and on. Trudeau and all his liberal cronies should be put in jail for the crimes against canada..

I used to drive Him around Toronto.\nYou Go PM. Justin Trudeau. Love and Respect.

As a Canadian, Trudeau is an unserious loser who has no problem preventing key infrastructure projects like pipelines and refineries that would have made us more independent, and taxing us to live through carbon tax. All this is silly performative nonsense geared towards cementing a legacy and will cause more pain to Canadians. If his intellect is so chanllenged it can't go two steps ahead and realize our economy will be crushed and we'll have to capitulate before the US, well I guess that explains the last ten years. He should be tried for treason.

Everyone thinks that this is Canada standing up, but what this means is that the Canadians with our economy that is 1/10 that of the US will be taxed at 25% on our imports, this is going to hurt canadians way more than the retaliatory terrifs will hurt the americans. This may also lead to an escalated response from the US exacerbating the effect. Trudeau and others can't seem to grasp that there may be a long term strategy from Trump and this is playing into it. \n\nThe truth of all of it is that Trump does not like Justin Trudeau or the Liberal government.

Trudeau you really don’t care about Canadians. Please spare all of us. Please stop representing us. Go away. You have been taxing Canadians to the maximum. You have treated us exactly like Trump. You both care about ONLY YOURSELF

So are you going to be a tough guy against Donald Trump the United States been protecting your country for its conception maybe you need to go visit him in the Oval Office and get school on what a pansy you are go ahead and talk to Donald might just close your border to America you don't you don't have the cards you don't have the balls be tough guy he'll slap a 50% tear upon you and then maybe he'll say take a hike a jerk Trudeau come on wake up

trudeau was going to be impeached before he stepped down

This is scaring me a bit. I’ve never heard trudeau speak so fluently before. Makes me think some shit is seriously about to go down

Let’s go Trudeau ?? this Pariah Govt must Go. Well said without casting Blame and Whining using propaganda and having weasels like musk and all his appointees to do these sick acts this is the darkest chapter in American history. I’m happy to see Canada and Mexico are the lights at the end of the tunnel. Trump and Co. Are weak individuals, there way is not the American way they can go to Russia with that nonsense.

Hey Trudeau where you going to get those new computer chips from? Haha looks like Canadian electronics will be much like what the world thinks of Canada… Canada is the TEMU country of the entire world! He stop running over elderly women in wheelchairs with drums Mounted MP’s on gay horses! Canada’s claim tofame!

Go Trudeau!!

Go Mr Trudeau!!!\n\nGreat to see such leadership in standing up to the fool that is Trump.\n\nRational. Factual. Impactful.\n\nPlease world - start standing up to Trump’s idiocy like this. It is world class leadership. And sense.

As soon as Trudeau or any other Canadian Liberal MP says, “Let me be crystal clear,” or refer to clarity, you can be sure that there is dishonesty happening! This guy has been working on Canada’s destruction for 9 years. He has given away Billions of taxpayers hard earned dollars to those of his choosing, as though it were his to give. He has been financially running Canada into the ground with the help of his financial advisor, Mark Carney. He has let The Canadian Armed Forces disintegrate for lack of funding, while choosing to refuse payment to NATO and those who help to defend Canada. He and his Government have been involved with billion dollar scandals and have become a major force of “Legalized Crime!” Now he wants to lay the blame for his poor leadership on the US. Unfortunately, many Canadians don’t see the truth! The Canadian News Media support the Government and suppress the truth by backing the Government Propaganda and by twisting the truth into untruth! It’s a childish game being played by an entitled child who doesn’t care about the people he was supposed to be leading. I would imagine, that if their Conservative Party Leader Poilievre wins the upcoming election, he will be able to straighten out many of the troubles that have been caused by the World Economic Forum Puppets and their agenda. I doubt that the Canadian People are in favor of the agenda of having nothing and being happy. What foolishness the elites expect people to believe. I’m sure that our Government will be able to get it all ironed out when Canada gets a leader that really cares about their people and not about those fake Carbon Taxes. It’s very interesting to watch what’s going on up in Canada! Interesting but sad, because they don’t have the ability to impeach a bad, unethical leader…

I don't like Trudeau much but he can speak like a politician and what he says sounds like common sense. And then we got Trump, a six year old angry baby elephant and his sidekick JD Robin, the couch lover and ass licker, scamming and bullying basically everyone except Putler. Talk about a pathetic narcissist psychopath, and the hillbillies who voted for him should go join Russia on the frontline. I know they're too fat and they would shoot in the wrong direction but the Russians are on the same level

We Canadians can no longer trust the Moscow Agent Governing America since he trashed the fair trade agreement he signed. Canadians are boycotting made in USA. Feel bad for many Americans who did not vote for the Tangerine Toddler in chief. Ffs when will the Republicans wake up and realize Cheetolini is going to destroy America. I agree with Trudeau today, this trade war is dumb. Thanks from Canada ?❤️??

I don't like Trudeau but this was very well spoken. Go Canada Go ??????

An other FACT ; don' t get FOOLED !!! : Liberals parti was about to LOOSE the Governance of Canada... BUT this "WAR" again President Trump was what the LIBERALS WANT !!!! Because now some stupids peoples have started to think the LIBERALS are now our "SAVIOR"... Witch is the VERY OPPOSITE of the TRUTH ... Justin Trudeau have to go HOME ...

That’s my prime minister ??way to go Trudeau, we stand up to the so call bully and his enablers??????just paid $5 Canadian for 18 eggs?

Yes, innocent US citizens r going to suffer from our sick dictators decisions but I'm glad Trudeau is correctly retaliating. ?I'm sorry I don't hav dual citizenship because I would move to Canada for at least 4yrs ?

WAY TO GO TRUDEAU. GOD IS ON OUR SIDE. \nMatthew 5:9 \nJesus said, “Blessed are the peacemakers, because they will be called sons of God” - WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THE PEACEMAKERS

Starting a trade war with our trusted allies is an extremely stupid idea... But does Trump and his associates ever have a good idea?? I am glad Canada is standing up for what is correct!! Hearing Trudeau speak in the language of FACTS, LOGIC, and REASON is SO REFRESHING!!!! Go Trudeau!!!

All going as planned! Trudeaus plans to dismantle Canada is almost complete. A WEF puppet and globalist. Trudeau is smiling ear to ear on the inside. Carney will drive the final nail in the coffin once he is installed. Nice work Canada!

This is all happening because of Justin Trudeau he needs to go and it will stop you just watch he's a scumbag and he needs to go.

These tariffs had initially been deferred to April. The reason Trump decided to put them in so abruptly is in retaliation to Trudeau doubling down on support fir Ukraine. This is so annoying. Most Canadians don't want our tax dollars going to Ukraine either.

So, a country that had a 2024 60 billion budget deficit, depends on the US for trade is going to act tough? OK. Zelensky just learned what FAFO means the hard way. Now he is begging ... Trudeau and Canada will end up begging and getting humiliated again.

Trudeau boycott all of United States export tariff the electricity going to united states or shut it down

Trudeau is either a liar or he doesn’t have a clue about what is going on in Canada.\nThe borders we share with the United States are far from the fortress of security that he purports them to be. If they were indeed as impenetrable as he asserts, we would not be witnessing a continuous influx of illegal firearms—responsible for a staggering 99.9% of gun-related crimes here in Canada—crossing over from our southern neighbor. Yet, these illicit weapons are making their way into our communities, alongside a troubling wave of unauthorized entries into our country.

As a Canadian, I didn’t vote for Trudeau but I have to hand it to him, he has expressed the thoughts and feelings of the majority of Canadians very well. Canadians are generally pretty laid back and easy going, often too polite for our own good. However, as the Americans in 1812, the Germans in WW1 and WW2, the Chinese and North Koreans in the Korean War and the Taliban in Afghanistan found out we don’t shy away from a fight when we are provoked. We will never bow down to that orange orangutang in the White House.

You go Trudeau. ✨ People always asked me if I could live in any other country other than India, I always chose Canada, and this is after migrating to Australia when I was younger. The US under Trump would be the last place on earth I'd ever want to go.

As a Canadian and as a Canadian that hates Trudeau like 90% of the others i still agree 100% this is some crazy stuff we got going on right now and yall Emericans voted this wak job in

I'm European and I really can't understand how you can make an economic trade war with an ally like Canada, a close and so friendly neighbor.... A dumb decision not only for the W Post... And all of this will end up heavily impacting Americans as well, also because besides Canada there is Mexico, China and the whole of Europe. In such a war there are no winners.... I really hope that the American people understand this and start fighting for this nonsense to end. \nAnd when I then hear President Trudeau called governor.... Well I get even more angry. This shows even more (but there was no need) who trump is. A suburban bully. A rude man. An unscrupulous man who passes over everything and everyone.\nAmerica is turning into something I no longer recognize....\n\nKeep going Canada!

Mr Trudeau, may my family and friends come live in Canada? None of us voted for this big, fat, orange, narcissistic a**hole and his psychotic sycophants. Trump is only going to double down on all the things that piss him off. Look, if Trump thought he could make a dollar off fentanyl, he wouldn’t be against it - it’s just that he doesn’t get any of the cuts. And by the way, I don’t think I’ve ever heard “smart” and “Trump” uttered in the same sentence without “not” being inserted between them. Trump is an idiot. I have visited Canada and it’s beautiful, unspoiled, and intelligently ran. PLEASE let us come! Most of us stand firmly with Canada, Mexico, and Europe. I have never been so embarrassed to be an American in 67 years of life.

I blame the American people who voted for Trump. I am going to disagree with Prime Minister Trudeau when he said Donald is smart, Donald is as stupid as they come. Everything this man touches he ruins. Great job MAGA ????‍♀️

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 want to say You go Trudeau! A trade war is lunacy.

Trudeau is a WEF asset. Therefore he can go eat a palette of bricks.

As a black female American we man, he has to do what he has to do and I applaud him for standing a a true leader. It’s going to be tough for us here, this government is selfish and this people voted him in now we all have to deal with this mess. I highly respect President Trudeau, a true leader

Trudeau and the country Canada are also been gifted and lied to by Donald Trump all the wonderful things that he said that he and Donald did together we’re all self-serving for Donald. He never has any intention to keeping allies happy that chainsaw that they broke out on the world stage is coming for everybody. But guess what we’re not gonna stand for it. They thought they were pandering this to a bunch of sleeping idiots but we’re awake and we have been awake. What a decent and humanitarian president going to figure out how he can help Canadian businesses whether this storm while Americans are left in the dust with their cabinet of curiosities screwing them over with no way to survive. I can already hear Trump’s read to the media. Canada has not done enough on the final on fentanyl they haven’t done enough. I told them they had to do XYNZ and they haven’t done enough. He’ll lie to everybody all over again, like every day of his life, the biggest liar.

I wanted Trudeau out of office for the past few years. But damn, just before he actually leaves office he makes the whole country proud. I don't want him to go now
