Being an American is such an embarrassment ? Trump and his criminal buddies have made us laughing stock of the entire world...

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.

What is the purpose of US gov. of gaining enemies so quick all around the world, in different fields? This was the dream of all the MAGA supporters?

I am Canadian. A very proud Canadian. \nI am very proud of our Prime Minister. He speaks with truth and facts. He is articulate, calm, and composed. Such a contrast to what the world experienced watching trump and vance kibosh the Ukraine president. Trump and vance were utterly disgusting. \nGood luck to those of you in USA who didn't vote for trump and the nightmare you're dealing with. \nCanada, elbows up!❤

It is heartening to hear Trudeau speak strongly with honesty, respect and dignity. How sad and unfortunate it is for the US an 18:04 d the world that the US has a lying narcisstic felon rapist in Trump, a man with no dignity or respect.

What is Trump's end game? World dominance for himself or Putin?

We have to realise Trump has aligned itself to Russia,therefore America is the enemy of the free world.

If you can’t beat them, join them. Trump is trying to avoid world war 3. His hands are tied..

As a millennial, a woman, a teacher and a US citizen, I have never seen the rise of stupidity and fundamentalism as I see with Trump and the Republican Party in general these days. It’s a cult manifesting in mass histeria and madness. The worst part is the world is watching and the stain and bitterness linger.

Is china and the us are the two countries in the world that are powerful and not

I’m so proud to be Canadian ❤the world needs to stand up for bullying

Trump wants a literal war with Canada. He wants his name in history book. That's all it's to him, just like for Putin. Sick evil people.\n\nWhen he's going to blame Canada for the destruction of USA stock market due to his stupid tariff war, he'll pretend that's a good excuse to take the country by force. This is just plain evil. America went in one generation from hopeful and peace loving nation to Putin's best friend. Sickening.\n\nWhat does Trump think his actions are going to do? Most of the world now hates him. Most of the world now hates Elon, and Tesla. He's a destroyer, not a builder.\n\nRepublican party and everyone working in right wing media, you happy now? You happy that Putin is able to take over entire country because of your bigotness and hatred for minorities? You're going to get your FAFO too one day, that's the revolution that will not be fought with words of appeasement or be as miserable failure as Jan 6.

Fact Trump wants to take over America lions with Russia take over the world.

Stop insulting our President! We are no longer woke communist like Trudeau and the EU, and we are focusing on us, as the world does not appreciate all we do and we are far from perfect here. President Trump is one of the great Presidents that made America and Canada so successful in the past, and all these socialist a$$bags can do is cry and get in the way of progress! We are the superpower of the world for a reason and you’re on the wrong path my Canadian friends! Watch you ? mouth long story short!

That's a lot of money. But you know whathe government is? Our worth enemies all the money in the world cannot stop people from traveling into any country. It stars with how you Treat peoples is the supporting the peoples can go.\nA long way

Wow! A True leader that speaks Truth!!! I'm American & I stand with Canada, Mexico & Europe, as well as with Ukraine. It is past time for our military to go rogue & remove this Cabal that is not only destroying our democracy but the world.

Trump it is an ally of russia working together with all autocracy countries and it is in the highest position possible to destroy NATO ally from the inside and that is exactly what he is doing together with elon musk and other billionaires, when USA will be terminated it will continue on the same path or straight conquering anything that oppose to them so in the end what will remain will be only very rich billionaires to rule the world as they like, and of course slaves... that means the rest of the world. How is that for a future scenario?

Done with America!!!...\n\nFentanyl HAS NOTHING to do with these Tariffs\n\nIts a SHOW for Russia ...\n\nRemember his PRIVATE meeting with Putty in Saudi, duh???\n\nYou'll be isolating YOURSELVES!!!!\n\nKing Donald strikes again MAGA\nWhat FOOLS!!!!\n\nPartner with Russia, USA!!!\n\nThe WORLD is a bigger playground.\nYou're OUTNUMBERED!!!

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…

It all makes sense. Everything that doesnt make sense does make sense if you look at it from the point that Trump is a puppet of Putin.\n\nThen everything, from Ukraine to whacking friends, to underming his own people, starts to make all the sense in the world.

I would like to thank all the kind words from all over the world I see here. We as Canadians really appreciate it. It's going to be a tough time ahead for this country, but if no one else will stand up to Trump, we will.

As a Democracy loving American, who’s against our evil man-child dictator Trump, I want to express an apology to the world. Trump is absolutely insane and morally bankrupt. ?

As an American citizen, we don’t want this either and want peace with our allies around the world.

Trump is gomina make looooooots of enemies all around the World.?

OUR BOARDERS ARE MEXCO AND CANIDA IF THEY ALLOW A COUNTRY LIKE CHINA OR RUSSIAN TO USE THEM THE WORLD HATES AMERICA

Well done to Canadian president we free world is with you !!!..... trumps circus government must fall....his is Russian puppet

Trump has made ruZZia's cruel dick-tator his closest friend, not ours, not our America's, which has not lost its love and appreciation for its neighbors, and especially Canada, its cousin! For some reason, we are now governed by a complete psycho moron and his cabal, whose sole interest is $money$, as they value nothing else in life. This is a republican coup. We're sorry and apologize to the world, and especially Ukraine, for this disaster. We hope to be a free nation again one day! Peace, Hope & Love from a dying nation.

I don't think the world and America itself will be able to endure Trump quietly for the next extra 4 years ? Bro hasn't even arrived yet and already the entire planet is fed up with it. ??

These tariffs are not because of trade imbalance, fentanyl and other excuses. It's about destroying alliances that were built and enhanced for decades. Only Russia will benefit from this and add many around the world knew all along, Trump and his cronies and doing Russia's bidding.

I am from Kazakhstan, and we stand with Canada, Ukraine, and Mexico! Unfortunately, our government cannot openly express what we truly think because of our crazy neighbor. We share the longest land border in the world with Russia.\n\nThe only way to achieve peace in the world is to grant freedom to the indigenous nations within Russia, who are enslaved in their own homeland. If Russia were to retreat to its true borders—around Moscow—this world would become a much better place to live.\n\nAs Kazakhs, we know the Russian regime very well. We have been deceived more than once by Russian rulers over the past 200 years, and due to their ruthless policies, we lost more than 70% of our population. They have never lived well, and their goal is to make the whole world suffer just as much as they do.\n\nAll of this chaos and crisis originates from Russia!

Mr Trudeau, thank you for your excellent clear and concise speech. You hit all the points. Thanks for standing up for Canada and the Free World. Please remember our Ukrainian friends...

I think this was probably the best speech I’ve heard from Trudeau. I’m not a fan of his, but I admire the way he has handled this and stood up for us. I’m deeply touched by the amount of support we are receiving from around the world and especially from our US brothers and sisters. ❤️??

I'm an American who stands for the democratic free world that my father and grandfather fought for. I do not wish to alienate our allies and neighbors. This administration is insane and I keep praying for it to end. We must stay strong.

Good job trump piss off the world, GREAT JOB!!!

Getting tired of Trudeau and Trump speaking for both countries and the citizens of both countries.\nWhile World leaders fight for power the ordinary citizens of both countries suffer the consequences of their actions.\nIf Trudeau really cared about Canadians he could start by eliminating the Carbon Tax.

I want the world to know that any American cheering for this is mentally challenged so don't make fun of them.

It's really obvious that /trump is on bed with Putin. They have some back door deal going on for personal enrichment and art of that deal is for /trump to destabilize the free world and it might even be necessary to do that to close their deal. Trump isa very sick individual. No sane person would do his.

Trump is king of the world you will all lose you fools

Like Trudeau, perhaps Trump will impress the world (after all he is a genius you know) by speaking in French and Spanish BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH.

To Canada, I am an American who abhors Trump, Musk, Vance because they are the biggest danger to our Whole World.

Trump said Canada is part of USA,this one among future state(s) to USA.The World is watching

As an American, i hope that the world does react to the United States as Canada has. And even worse. I hope that things for us get as bad as it gets because anything less will be ignored or brushed off as anyone elses fault. I want Americans to really understand what a horrible mistake they made in Donald. But my hopes or not, this seems very likely to be the case anyway.

So, has the USA under Trump turned into a Russian asset.?\nSeriously, the rest of the civilised world especially us in the UK are looking in open-mouthed astonishment at the behaviour of the nominal leader of the free world.\nAmerica is morphing into a broken and divided society, but in the meantime, you're scaring everyone else guys, including your historical allies, because Trump is untrustworthy, he's coming across like a gangster who sees everything as a opportunity for self-enrichment.\nTrump is looking like Putin's Poodle.\nPutin really has got him on a collar and lead, definitely his yappy little Handbag dog..!!!

He his dumb ??? and the most dumbest thing ever is what they did to Zelenskyy bullied him in front of media and billions of people all over the world is watching there probably laughing at those lunatics

Most of us know not to believe what Trump says about these tariffs (or anything else). He is a scourge to the world. As a US citizen am beyond disgusted that he was able to gain enough votes.?

Don’t listen to this liar. Don’t be fooled. He’s a puppet for the World Economic Forum. He’s worked very hard to destroy Canada. He’s resigning in a few days. It can’t come any sooner.

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

how can one man. destroy the world including his own country. he just became president. in 4 years half of civilization will be in the stone age. again! stay strong Canada. we stand with you. the dutch!

Jeez, when will the world realise that the US is now a puppet of Russia, just like it's a puppet of Israel. I think Canada and the rest of the world should take this opportunity to create new trade deals and lean-in to a new world order. The sooner world leaders accept this, the sooner the US can get on with imploding.

The United States has become an unreliable world leader and trading partner, which will not put America first. The USMCA trade agreement between Canada, Mexico, and America, initially brokered and lauded by Trump as “terrific,” is now being scraped. The stated reason, a national security threat due to fentanyl originating from the Canadian border (approximately 43 pounds in 2024), is bogus. This pretend “security threat,” allows Trump to circumvent congressional oversight and undermine constitutional norms. Canada's historical contributions to the United States are extensive, including WWI, fighting Hitler in WWII for two years before they joined the fight, declaring war against Japan WWII after Pearl Harbour before America did, was 25% of D-Day’s landings, support during the Iranian hostage crisis, after 9/11, in Afghanistan, and during natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina and California wildfires. However, Canada is now being treated transactionally, with a lack of respect to a historical friend and ally.
