I’m not a fan of this guy but I stand with canada

I wanna move to Canada

Sorry Canada we have a idiot for a president

Let’s go Canada. Mexico its with you… its time to get united for the good of our people for our families

CANADAS TARRIFFS ON AMERICANS GOODS ARE WAY HIGHER SOME OF THEM WAY ABOVE 270 PERCENT SO ITS ONLY FAIR WE DO THE SAME WAKE UP SHEEPLE THESE COUNTRIES ARE RIPPING AMERICA OFF

We in Minnesota would not be upset if you cut off electricity to minnesota. We would actually encourage you to cut it off in action against our dictator. People need to see it happen. Love you Canada!

Stand strong Canada ??, support here from the UK ??. I have never been to your country, but there will be ? support for you over here, from everybody. Trump really is behaving like a complete and utter pratt.

From us in Britain. I think ever since Trump back in power he cause massive divid between american and their allies. Maybe Trump is the enemy now possible bigger threat than Russia and China. Canada your always welcome in Britain.

From a Christian-Native American Veteran - kudos to Canada ?

Ashamed American here. Please Canada, please don't forget that at least half of us Americans hate this stunning crap every bit as much as you do. We support you, Canada ...not Trump and his cohorts.

Trudeau, what you did for canada? You shameless cartoon.

FCK Canada

Way to go Canada, I'm American and and ashamed of our felon wanna be dictator that had put us in this position.

This makes me want to go spend my American dollars in Canada.

Respect to Canada from Switzerland. Trump will go down as the president who destroyed America.

Trade war ???? Canada

In the end we don't need Canada.

What Trump seems to try to get at most is the unfair act of the USMCA. Most trades benefited Canada, while Canada refused to provide the same fair trades. Sometimes Trump does say things that may have gone off track like fentyl handling on Canada's end and border handling. It seems like our borders at the time were less strict on the American side versus the Canadian side of the border. Trump did state multiple times that most countries like Canada were unfair to USA. Even with the USMCA, America got screwed by Mexico as will. America has been there helping and supporting and submitting to every country. Yet failed to support our own people when we need it, especially to clear up our own debts. Sadly, America is falling behind due to poor handling of Government Democrat corruption. I am neutral as both parties don't always provide the best solution for everyone. You have to pick who can help the American people. Seeing how corrupt the Democrats has ran America and the defacto behind of all the wars and money laundering has surprised me, and I hope the change with Trump will help everyone realize how screwed we all are in correcting those corruption that isn't really needed.

Many of us Americans stand with Canada.

tRUMP - The Orange Idiot is going to destroy America but as it is sinking MAGA Cultists will scream how their glorious leader is working for them when in actual fact he is ONLY interested in lining the pockets of his billionaire friends. Go for it Canada?

Canada needs to sober up and stop whining, Liberals acting like baby giving away billions to support wars and some bullshit..there is so much work that needs to be done to Canada be great. Trump is actually doing a favor by doing that.....let's how we are going to independent from USA

Trudeau is right... Trump should be working with Canada... Trump should be working alongside Canada.... And Trump MUST make Canada the 51st state, to ensure this companionship. Together we shall be one!

Why he didn't show that kind of leadership before, maybe he would be PM of Canada.

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.

Thank you Canada

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.

Trudeau govt. Is failed to maintain \nRelationship with USA .\nCanada need mature P.M.\nI respect bond between Us and Canada public.\nBut Trump is right he is now taking\nCare of his own country's economy. He is not allowing taxpayers money to E.U. & other country's.

GO CANADA, stick it to Trump.

Canada Europe is ready to work closer with you!

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.

Genius Trump, who wrote Art of Deal. He want split Rusia from China and get rare earth. Insted he is spliting Europe and Canada from Usa. And rare earth will go to Europe or China. And prove worldwide America can be trusted ?

Canada seems like the new United States of America

CNN thx for leaving comments ON. Now now, Trudeau isn't liked much by his own ppl. He wants to look tough by replying with more tarrifs of his own and hurting his own people. While trying to say US is bad yet doing the very same thing while saying he didn't have a choice when he did. He's a liar. Now its fine if he wants to place tarrifs, he's free to do whatever. But ppl already chose a conservative leader, and i think if he plays ball with Trump, Canada will have lots to win.

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.

Americans do NOT stand with the “h*tler wannabe” Canada thank you for handling this with grace. We are going to struggle, we are going to suffer, please help us.

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.

CNN correspondence never gives the more impactful concerns - in this case, the concern should be the fact that DT is attacking Canada, our friends, and Mexico, our friends - because he's a fkn traitor - and the US Constitution that says it's our American duty to stop people like him. The government and the common people must be overlooking these crimes and willing to give up their rights and freedoms. The original KGB and the long running Putin agenda is the slow game in his global conquest for power. You have to consider the geopolitics. If Mexico and Canada won't defend us (because they hate Trump) DT can/will sell out America to Russia, in turn Canada would be the closest place to conquer, then Mexico. It's stupid tho, unless the UN stands back and watches this happen too. Think I'm bullshittin, reading too far into things, but I'm not. Nobody is at the wheel but Trump, and he doesn't even know how to drive. You, the people and corporate new media will never read far enough to get the entire picture. Krasnov stole the Country to handicap us in the Cold War, except the War is white hot. He's in line with Hitlers handbook. And don't forget, that Nazis were white people who had no problem offing white people. Just sayin. Nobody is safe in Trump country. It's all Biffed up now.

A real politician. Support for Canada from Ireland.
