USA stole Mexico’s ?? territory now Trump wants to steal Canada ?? territory! \nAnd Trump probably will give Alaska back to Russia Putin ??

The baby orange man does not want to work with Canada and Mexico , He wants to collect taxes on all goods coming in so him and his rich buddies do not have to pay taxes.

trudeau isnt canadas pm, he has been asked to step down, he resigned, his party doesn't want him, the people do not want him, he has actively put a stop on government while he runs around making promises or threats he cannot or does not have the mandate to do so... why doesn't the media mention this.... sign a canadaian

Trump wants our natural resources from us Canada ?? it's simple

Ok. You want war you got it. R.i.p Canada

As a Canadian, here's my biggest concern. The whole border thing was nothing more than a ruse. Trump has cozied up to Putin ... basically, he's Putin's poodle. He's tossed Ukraine to the wolves. (Though, I think Europe and Canada will increase their efforts to help Ukraine.) My fear is Trump will find some way to justify sending American troops into Canada to simply seize the resources he wants but is unwilling to trade for.

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…

As a Canadian I am embarrassed, ashamed and fearful! Everything that this idiot spews forth is just pure drama. All President Trump wanted was for Canada to take care of the drug problem that has killed so many. In the 9 years that this government has been in power he has done absolutely NOTHING to stop this catastrophe, in fact he has stood by and watched it get worse….enabling cartels to gain more power with a lax system of slap on the wrist laws. And his immigration department is asleep at the wheel.  \nI pray that some common sense enters the picture soon…

Its a tragic turn in history; US + Russia, smh. Canada go trade with us in Europe and Australia, we love you! ❤??????\nAnd to all the americans that didn't want this, take care and get rid of him fast!

Trump wants to annihilate Canada and take us over

We don’t want this either The American people stand with Canada!

I hope Canada will plan to take US refugees. Many democrats/liberals want to defect. Trudeau has a sweet heart. I want that in my leader! Please let us come. Or see if Donald will let the US west coast could be assumed by Canada. \nCalifornia, CA\nI’m willing to freeze for life to get away from this regime, please. Make us an offer, sirs.

Trump wants to break the Canadians in order to ultimately force the annexation of Canada into the United States. This is the main goal of this trade war, since the USA cannot start a traditional war with Canada like Putin did.

From the USA; I want to apologize to Canada. You should be proud to have such a strong leader such as Trudeau.

As an American, I didn't vote for Trump, and I certainly don't want this. So sorry Canada ?? ?...and I'm sorry that too many of the American people fell for Trump's lies ?.

From a Hispanic women from Texas. I stand with Zelensky Canada and Mexico. The world must know there are many Americans who did NOT want this idiot. Please don't hate us all. God bless EVERYONE

Im uk, canadian cousins, best people on the planet. Widely regarded as just being the nicest country on the planet, from france and england, they have taken the best of both, determination and grit but always keeping things polite. The most reliable dependinal country ever. The us have had the luckiest neighbours on the planet. And no 1 of worlwide neighbours. For trump/elon to screw both ukraine and canada in the same week. Only person who could have wanted that more is putin.

I want to move to Canada!

Hard to believe that some people in the world do not want freedom, peace, friends, and happiness, and we let the so called leaders ruin our world that we all have a short time on this beautiful planet. Canada will survive, we will never give up our country. Thank you Mr.Prime Minister for being yourself and truthful and letting the world know. Thank you from all around the globe for your support.

1/2: Myself and the saner half of the US that read, understood, and voted against Proj 2025 understands why they need to levy retaliatory tariffs especially as a Michigander who's lived less than 4 hours from Canada all her life, who has family in Quebec and Ontario, and is a job-seeking policy professional and international trade nerd who now cannot in good faith seek a job in the federal government. We have been looking and still do look to Canada as a model quite a bit and love Canada and Canadians to pieces. We Michiganders especially in the central and eastern UP and Detroit and Ann Arbor area are friends, coworkers, and family of Canadians. Some are even dual citizens. It is sad that it's come to this. \n\n2/2: I still personally just can't wrap my head around how a trade deal Trump put together himself and called the best (the USMCA in question) is all of a sudden so bad. Logic doesn't work with these types of people... I really want **someone!!** to ask him/ admin officials about the USMCA **to their face** and see what they say because I am so upset by this nonsensical and corrupt administration.

I want to move to Canada... This is a real leader

Canada can say whatever it wants. Inconsequential as CNN. Now with a 54% less viewer base and 50% less Corporate revenue donors and supporters.\nCNN on its way out right in front of MSNBC who is next.\nIts over

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.

Its incredible what is happening. After humiliating Zelensky , saying that he didnt want peace (not true), now Trump starts a trade war with Canada. It's so insane. Its like Trump follows Putin, or like they are allies in destroying the world. Is this the way to make America great? Its already a nightmare.

Am much as it will hurt us Americans. I want Canada's to know I am fully with you guys. I got my generator ready as I know what's coming next. May we all weather this horrible storm and come out stronger. Hopefully, the Americans who believe in a con man and his cronies finally wake up and rid us of them all. If they do, I'm certain America will not fall for this kind of man for at least another 50 years. Sometimes, people don't realize what they have until it's gone.

As an American, I support Canada. \nWe have a want to be dictator in the WH.

I hope you Canadians know that WE, the sane citizens of the United States, do NOT agree with what Trump has started. We don't even want him here!\n\nUnfortunately, there are a lot of racists in our country who have learned to blame other groups of people for the failures of the very party they vote for. \n\nI say, FIGHT BACK! Don't allow the Dictator Orange Man to bully y'all. However, this affects us, we'll have to deal with it, and the ONLY person to blame will be Trump! \n\nLong live, Canada! -Signed, A Black American Woman (who did not vote for that literal clown)

Trudeau is so right that the US fighting with its allies is exactly what the enemies of the US wants. The Russians are celebrating after Trump's attack on Zelensky and now Canada, Mexico and Europe. Whether he is a paid Russian asset or not, Trump wants to destroy the rules based international order which will leave all of us worse of economically and more vulnerable to our enemies.

Thank you Prime Minister showing the American people how stupid and ignorant nearly half the country is. Americans want their country back vote the garbage out. I wouldn't hold my breath. A very sick and drug dependant half the country. Don't blame Mexico or Canada

It’s nothing personal against Canada, Trump wants US owned companies back that’s all.

Trump can't prove that these drugs are coming through Canada unseen. This is only designed to destabilize The United States so that we are forced into dealing with Putin and Russia. Don't forget, Trump said he wants to extend his Presidency past this term and the next. His goal is to become like Putin. To become a dictator. Don't lose sight of what is to come. Do not just focus on what is happening today.

As an American ?? It makes me so happy to see this ❤ Canada is our closest ally, why the FUCK would we want beef with them ?

Spain and many Spaniards always support Canada and people know the history and the reality. The Russian government is an oligarchy that only benefits itself by impoverishing and robbing the people. A perverse system that condemns Russians to live in economic and intellectual misery. If you don't agree with Putin and his friends, you unfortunately disappear...Russia is an irrelevant country, which boasts about issues it does not have, and lives off a miserable past from which it inherited those nuclear warheads to have so much relevance. Curiously, Russians do not want to live in their own country and you can find them from the Arab countries to the Costa del Sol in Spain fleeing the misery of their country.

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.

Trudeau is good at brainwashing. It has nothing to do with the people. It has to do with this dictator regime who taxes everyone and everything in Canada. Basically. And don't want to stop. They leave their borders open and immigration here in Canada is out of control. They give refuge to criminals in Canada and no rule of law. This guy is a dictator and food at brainwashing in the media.

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.

Don’t tariffs raise prices for your people. Why would Canada want this?

Trump as he announced wants Canada and Greenland that is why those tariffs are in place , that is why why he thinks of Putin like his hero and giving on Ukraine. Tariffs war is just a beginning

I want to go to Canada.

I do not want a trade war with anyone, but if you’re already doing tariffs on the US. Then we need to return the favor. I personally like Canada but if you play fair, so will we.

No matter who pays the tariffs and who it hurts, the end result is that billions will be paid into the government coffers of both USA and Canada. Of course Trump & Musk want to use that to benefit billionaire oligarchs, but what will Canada do with the new income? Maybe much could go to Ukraine to compensate US disgusting withdrawal of support??

To Canada and all our allies, I am an American and I stand with them with our allies. The fact that idiot is in charge of our country. He’s tearing it apart piece by piece and that’s what he wants to do.

Amazing speech by Trudeau. And apart from the sheer economic idiocy of these tariffs, one thing |Dopey Old Donnie forgot in his imperialist ambitions is that Canada is actually still part of the Commonwealth. So he may want to educate himself (if possible) before that State Visit in London.

Good for Canada!!! We know you dont want to do it but it has to be done!!! You have to do what you have to do. Thank you for having courage to do it. Goooo Canada!!!

As an American, I want to add my voice to those of other Americans who stand in support of Canada, the EU and Ukraine. Our current occupant of the Oval Office is an embarrassment to those of us who are true patriots. Let the trolls say what they will to express their ignorance, for who in their right mind can support this turncoat.

This American wants to move to Canada!!! Thank you for speaking the truth, Mr. PRIME MINISTER

I do want Canada to become our 51st state but can we please also get Trudeau as our president and get the clown and his whole circus out of the office now?

THE ONLY REASON DONALD TRUMP WANTED CANADA TO ACCEPT TO BE A STATE OF AMERICA IS BECAUSE IF IT WAS HE WOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THE OIL AND ELECTRICITY THAT CANADA HAS , NOPE AM HAPPY THAT CANADA IS STANDING THEIR GROUND AND REFUSES TO BE ONE OF OUR STATES.

The Mexican President CLAUDIA SHEINBAUM writes to Trump and Musk on behalf of THE REST OF THE WORLD:\n\nSo, you voted to build a wall… Well then, my dear Americans, even if you don’t know much about geography—after all, for you, “America” is your country and not an entire continent—it’s important that before you lay the first stone, you know what you’re locking out with this wall.\n\nOutside, there are 7 billion people; but since the concept of “people” doesn’t seem to interest you much, let’s call them consumers instead.\n\nThere are 7 billion consumers ready to replace the iPhone with a Samsung or Huawei within 42 hours. They can also swap Levi’s for Zara or Massimo Dutti.\n\nQuite comfortably, within six months, we can stop buying Ford or Chevrolet vehicles and switch to Toyota, KIA, Mazda, Honda, Hyundai, Volvo, Subaru, Renault, or BMW, which are technically far superior.\n\nThese 7 billion people could also cancel their Direct TV subscriptions and—even if we wouldn’t like it—stop watching Hollywood movies, opting instead for Latin American or European productions, which are superior in quality, content, and cinematography.\n\nAs incredible as it may sound, we can stop traveling to Disney and instead visit Xcaret in Cancún, Mexico, Canada, or Europe—there are many incredible destinations in South America, Asia, and Europe.\n\nAnd believe it or not: There are even better burgers in Mexico than McDonald’s—with higher nutritional value.\n\nHas anyone ever seen a pyramid in the United States? In Egypt, Mexico, Peru, Guatemala, Sudan, and many other countries, there are pyramids with fascinating cultures. Take a look at where the wonders of the ancient and modern world are located… None of them are in the U.S. Too bad for Trump—otherwise, he would have bought and resold them!\n\nWe know that Adidas exists, not just Nike, and we can start consuming Mexican sneakers like Panam.\n\nWe know far more than you think; for example, we know that if these 7 billion consumers stop buying your products, unemployment will rise, and your economy will collapse so severely within your racist wall that you’ll beg us to tear it down. We didn’t want anything, but… You wanted a wall? Then you’ll get a wall.\n\nSincerely, \nTHE REST OF THE WORLD. \n\nPlease forward this message to 12 people. If you don’t, nothing will happen—except that many people won’t learn about these realities. \n\nCLAUDIA SHEINBAUM \nPRESIDENT OF MEXICO

I want to move to Canada
