I’m sorry Canada ? ashamed to be called an American these days.

American here who has spent 57 years visiting and loving Canada. HELP US get rid of the monsters in the White House. Thank you Canadian friends.

God going to be with Canada

Canada, Take the gloves off. Go with SANCTIONS. Show the deranged the meaning symbiosis.

I remember when as a child we would travel to Canada. We did not need a passport. I'm shame that Idiots are in charge of this BS!

JT is usually the one screwing over Canada. Must be weird for him to talk about someone else doing it.

Thank you for a great strong response to the Felon of the US (FOTUS ). I am American and ashamed of this irresponsible irrational man. We love Canada, have relatives there and we are planning a summer trip to our good neighbor and trust me we will buy Canadian when we are there.

As a child, I remember my sister-in-law, who lived under the regime of Hitler, explain to me the horrors that occurred in their country by this tyrant. Now, the USA has a maniac who is taking us Americans through the same things that Hitler took my sister-in-law and her family through. Being an older African American woman, I am not afraid of this President, or what he can do, I grew up with strong black women, and he can't bring me down!! I respect Canada for standing up for themselves. May God ever bless and keep you.

Like Wolf said. I too, grew up with Canada almost in walking distance. Mom and dad both Canadian born. Canada was and still is a beacon of kindness, sensibility, beauty, music(!!!!) The list goes on. Persevere neighbors. Please I will pay extra for your stuff.

Canada Europe is ready to work closer with you!

From the uk…. Well said Trudeau. Big love to Canada. Hope Donald understands your long words.

Thanks for your help against putin Canada❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

As an American, I always thought Justin was a respectable guy. At this point with republicans being pussies, I’d rather Canada just buy America.

Sorry, is this a BRIT talking about Canada's problems?! Lordy me, you have decades worth of The Disintegration of British Economics and Society material to keep you focused and busy. ?

Human values, respect, intelligence... that's what you learn from youth in Canada... Congratulations to Trudeau and to all Canadians

American Republican here, keep standing strong, Canada! Thank you!

You cant argue with a well thought out, sensible, and honest message. Bravo Canada! I speak for the vast Majority of Americans when I say that we value your friendship and look forward to a healthy and prosperous relationship moving forward.

Canada would be in a better place If he only spoke this clearly and stood up with a back bone years ago, not months before leaving office! smh

Canada needs America.

You know there's an old saying that I'm sure Trump is very wise about you keep your friends close and your enemies closer I would say the way Canada is talking they consider us an enemy look at all these other countries that suddenly lined up against America who bailed all of them out of World War II and who brought down the Berlin Wall that shows how thankful you are and America's been paying the highest of the EU and the United Nations than any of you chicken countries I would just laugh at all of you you don't get it and all these comments are from Liberal Democrats who hate Trump it's real obvious that's who his fan base is Trudeau the little boy from the north who's not smart enough to come in from the cold poor guy he's in for a rude awakening she thinks he's going up against America and that we believe any of his BS

Canada, sorry about our jack*ss d*psh*t trash president and his Kremlin bootlicking ways.

Keep standing proud, Canada, and Ukraine. Most Americans definitely understand that this is unnecessary and not what we as a nation stand for. Don't be bullied, or shamed into any deal with this administration. It's full of greed and absolutely untrustworthy. Please don't blame us all. I'm a metro Detroit resident. Canada is my neighbor and friend.

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!!!

Stay strong canada (greetings from austria)

Sadly I’m an American democrat that actually feels relieved that Canada is there. I feel like they are the grownups watching us learn from our bad choices. Thank you Canada.

From the USA: Why is it right for Canada to tariff us more than we tariff them? Trump pointed out that there was a 200 billion a year tariff deficit for the USA. Some say that number is inflated and the real number is somewhere around the 70 billion mark in Canada's favor. No one disagrees that the US has a huge tariff deficit with Canada. So, the USA is just leveling the playing field. It's time to truly have level trade with the rest of the world, not just Canada. No more free lunch from the US to the world. We want free and fair trade, but for that to happen we must tariff other countries goods at exactly the same level they tariff our goods.

Justin does not have the support of his own party. They have no confidence in him and he cannot bring economic benefit to Canada other depending on US

LOL ALL Fentanyl coming over the border is from the U.S. into Canada. It is just an excuse to try and get his military up here. It will not happen. We will meet them with UK troops, our troops and EU troops and others if we must so f him but Trump should really go have a little visit with King Charles.

Trump has invented the emergency with Canada to avoid Congress and use executive powers to slap a tax (taxation without representation) like a King would, on the US people. Last time this happened tea was thrown into the river and the US fought their war of independence.\n\nIt’s time to declare independence from Trump/MAGA

We dont want your globalist world Canada. We are leaving the neo liberal order. Open boarder and the post industrial apocalypse you want to bring to tbe world. Problem is these leftist will sabotage and destroy thier own country just to spite trump and their own people. They support a nazi lead party in Ukraine where even gay marriage is illgeal. Leftist are sick curel people

USA sends more Fentanyl to Canada than they send to us. FACT!

Our PM is strong and true leader, Canada responded very diplomatically, while protecting Canadians and in effort to help American business, farmers and people.

PoS ?JTurd!!! I wouldn’t listen to a word he says. He’s destroyed Canada. Should be imprisoned!!! ??

Vive la Canada!

When Canada makes the US look like the immature, dangerous, foolish country that we are. What an absolute embarrassment….

Ah yes, the trade war that Canada will surely lose. I love Canada. Wouldn't trade it for the world, but this is a losing battle by which citizens on both sides will feel the full effect. Trump appeasing Putin is a chess move, that the PM seems to be overlooking. The US can't afford to go to war with Russia, but at the same time, it needs resources within Russia's neighboring region. So the US will do what they always do, and had people listened to what Kissinger had to say, they'd be better prepared for this. Nonetheless, let's stand proud and strong, and come together as Canadians in order to get through this.

Well done Canada ?? a measured response. I think you have the support of most Americans to switch off the lights.

Yea Oh Canada! Perception of Trump, not its citizens, is spot on.

Long to live America, MAGA first. Canada week diplomacy with geico insurance.

Canada, please join the EU. Your values are ours.

Canada should immediately order total blockade the border and reject all goods coming to Canada from USA and ask all Canadian not going to USA from now until further notice to force Trump Tariff to crack down! At the same time call each province to mobilize to prepare for actual war to star conscription because Trump may invade Canada like Hitler had done in Europe before! He is actually mad in mind now!

We did not all vote for that orange clown. I absolutely despise orangina.\nVoted for Harris/Walz!\nWe stand with our Allies—Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, Europe, etc.\n\n#resisttrump\n\n???️‍???

Canada ❤\nTrump against humanity

canada wants to fight? bring it

I'm an American Army soldier and I stand with Canada

We’re only vacationing in Canada until trump is OUT! Go Canada!!!! ??

Pensez-y. Pour lutter contre les tarifs américains, l'Ukraine n'est pas l'affaire du Canada.

As a US citizen who has considered Trump to be a boorish moron since I was a child in the 1980s, I thank Canada and PM Trudeau for standing strong against our idiot-in-chief and I hope we can repair this unnecessary rift as soon as possible.

As an American, I stand with Canada. I am worried, but someone needs to stand up to Trump. I am sorry that it is not the US. So many people still support him and I just don’t understand it.

FROM ARGENTINA I support Trump on this!!! The USA should balance goods trade and blow up deficit! Milei in Argentina has eliminated deficit for the first time after 123 years in Argentina's history, making economy and investment start growing. Mexico and Canada are taking advantage, Go Trump!!!
