Not to many people drink USA liquor in Canada mostly coffee

Stay Strong Canada. Greetings from Austria.Europe and Canada need to stay together?

I am a Washingtonian and support I support Canada and Trudeau 100% Canada and Trudeau 100%.

Canada will come begging to Trump wait and see ???

Thank you for representing Canada so strongly and eloquently. ??

how safe it would be for canada to become state 51!! they should be honoured!!

Support Canada against these attacks from the Trump administration.

Trudeau you broke Canada, also not only Fyntenal but a 200 Billion$$$ Deficit between United states and Canada that you are freaked out your going to loose.

Canada is becoming Jamaca??

We apologize to Canada for our third rate education system that produces morons who don’t understand fear-based politics are rarely backed by facts. Use the right buzz words, crime/drugs/money and the sheep will line up every time, guaranteed.

Think about this more goods come out of Canada and into the USA vs Canada. And it’s the same speech as last time.

As an American I want to apologize and encourage Canada to stay strong. Remember there are millions of us here in America that do not want this either and want nothing more than for this to all be a bad dream.

I wish I could move to Canada where there are actual “rational thinking leaders”. It is so refreshing to listen to President Trudeau…he seems so sane, so even tempered and SO normal and he presents himself as a very mature thinking adult with excellent leadership, communication and motivational skills. So sad that we cannot say that about Trump and his pathetic “cult-like” followers!

If you acted as a leader of Canada, instead of focusing on destroying Canada's economy, and you allowing millions of illegal immigrants so they can vote for you, none of this would have happened. You better find the way to work it out with Trump because Canada has a lot more to loose.

Trudeau, it's because of YOU that Canada is in this position! You did all this to our country. You and your environmental scams for not letting Canada have their pipeline, you left the borders open so that fentanyl, criminals and illegal immigrants can come into the country... you constantly printed money and created the inflation before all this happened ... now don't try to cover all your mess with big words today as if you really care.

??America loves you Canada our president doesn’t reflect our entire country and what we stand on AMERICA STANDS FOR CANADIANS ??

Smart people will be moving to places like Canada.

will canada help fund ukraine How Canada plans to use Russian cash to help fund Ukraine’s war effort

Looks to me like the tariffs have worked - Canada has started to cooperate

Tariffs, sanctions, do whatever you need Canada. Let the USA feel the pain they have asked for.

Sorry Wolf this is an incredible. This is exactly what everybody in Canada and the Democrats told you was gonna happen with Donald Trump. You guys are no Walter Cronkite that’s for sure. 20:09

Washingtonian of 64 years here. I stand with you Canada from my blue state. I am so embarrassed right now to be an American. ?

My curse is always for Canada

It’s not your fault Trudeau. We know it’s trump’s fault. He’s a rat bastard and I didn’t vote for him. You take care of your good people. As an American citizen, I wish you were our president! I stand with Canada ?? and Ukraine!??

So the American government protects Canada with our military and cost the American tax paying people billions of dollars to protect this country that we get nothing in return for our protection. You send more product to America, then you take from America.\n But yet America is the bad guy in this, it seems to me. That Canadians. to step up in all of these point and maybe America would not have to put tariffs to help us as taxpaying citizens have a lower tax Is four tax paying citizens because. Our taxes go to help protect the canadian people

Americans obviously didn’t understand what tariffs are, didn’t get that it’s an import tax which they must pay on goods and products they buy from Canada, a tax which tRump collects from Americans and uses to pay for tax-cuts for the richest citizens. But one more thing Americans don’t get is that before this fateful day an unofficial boycott against ALL US goods has been growing since tRump insulted Canada’s Prime Minister and threatened Canada’s sovereignty—whereas Canada’s official countervails ( which only kicked-in today )only target certain US goods, not ALL of them like ordinary Canadians are doing in growing numbers right now—in fact, the imposition of tRump’s tariffs today has only made the unofficial boycott bigger and more organized. It’s heartening that so many nations have solicited Canada, offering alternative sources for common US exports to Canada —citrus fruits, pharmaceuticals, and other manufactures, to name a few.\n\nI don’t think Canadians even realize how big this unofficial boycott is getting because it’s growing so fast. I’ve never seen a surge in Canadian patriotism like this. Never in my seven decades —which includes the two Referenda on Quebec separation. And there’s a federal election approaching when all partisans will be one-upping each other in the patriotism department—which manifests in more boycotts of US goods and hospitality services.\n\n Americans should know that the unofficial boycott is more harmful to US exporters than the official targeted countervails because it features immediate and longterm diminishment of Canadian purchases of US goods—all retailers know it’s very hard to recover lost customers once they’ve found alternatives (and the added patriotic effect only makes it worse). Included is diminishment of Canadian visits to the USA. Indeed, the internet is replete with testimonies of Canadian”snow birds” not only forgoing their annual sojourn in the Florida or Arizona sunshine but also of selling their properties there with the parting shot, “I will never vacation in the US again!” Already Mexico has seen its visits from Canadians (who have had a modest presence in Mexico for years) surge to unprecedented levels. I know from much-welcomed temp Mexican construction workers in BC (where I live) that they view Canadians completely differently from our mutual US neighbours—and now that affection is growing like never before. \n\nI’m continually amazed at how uninformed Americans are about tariffs—and misinformed by tRump and his goofy, preposterous, and ridiculous fantasy of world-domination. When tRump uses the lame excuse to implement emergency powers —that Canada is “allowing” (as Vance puts it) fentanyl to “pour into the USA”—it’s tantamount to saying Ukraine started the war with Russia. The man is a tendentious liar and narcissistic megalomaniac. \n\nI have faith that the great nation of the USA will reject tRump’s crazy policies—we all just have to hang on and let the needless suffering for both our nations (and the world with regard strategic alliances) play out until he either relents, is swamped in legal repercussions, is impeached, or otherwise removed from office!\n\nGood luck my American and Ukrainian friends!

The world respects Canada and this Scot is disgusted with Mr Trump's antics.

I am American.\nI am on the side of Canada.\nYes, because of trump, we are screwed.

So the dictator Trudeau is suddly careing about his country? It is almost like he is going to get called out on his lies next ? these tarrifs will hurt CANADA not the US ?

I am an American and I kindly as all world leader to stay on Trump's neck!!! Dont let up! Keep your foot on that man's neck till we can get him out of office. We citizens who didnt vote for this will pay the price. Its a burden that will hit us all... but its our burden to carry now. Dont let up. We dont want this either. We love our allies. And the best thing you can do for us, is fight back. We remain neighbors, friends and allies. Do what you must Canada. We understand and we are sorry.\n\nI, an American, stand with the Ukraine and Canada ?? ??

According to Ritter Ukraine has already signed over rights to rare earth to UK. There was an article in a Czech newspaper talking about this leak. \nIs this why Starmer won't stop. \nWell some analyst believe UK is on the precipice of collapse. I agree.\nI believe the #1 priority of Trump is the US dollar and BRICS competition.\nUS plan to address $34 Trillion debt is to digitize the countries assets. Ex. Anwar, national parks, Infrastructure etc. This is the reason for the new land grab (aka resources grab) . The ones with the resources rule. China has known this for at least 20 years \nThink of the U.S. valuated as a investment ie. look at their balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. \nSimple valuation assets-liabilities=equity\nTaking this type of valuation $34 Trillion debt is peanuts.\nNow apply similar analysis to England.\nNo assets , little industry (aka income) or cash flow. \nI know many want a true multipolar world but I think it will be more spheres of influence dominated by China, US, Russia. The supper powers are positioning for the resources. The world has changed. \nI think the US Democrats will organize to harass Trump and his initiatives in an attempt to take back Congress in the midterms. Their only option. Going to get very nasty. (Harris poll from last weekend Trump favorability 58%)\nNow for Trump's tariffs . They are working already. Several tech companies have announced new factory plans for US. It all relates to Corporate Income taxes. It's about transfer pricing where they pay no Corporate income taxes in US.\nTransfer pricing For example:\nApple iPhone manufacture an iPhone in China for $300. They sell it to an Apple subsidiary call it Apple international located in a low tax or no tax domicile for $300. So No income tax. Say they sell it to Apple USA for $700 . No taxes owed by Apple international . Apple USA sells it in US for $700. Bought it for $700 = no taxes owed. BUT APPLE CLEARED $400 CASH. \nThat's with no tariffs. Now with 20% tariffs on China , the iPhone full import price $700 (sale price). is taxed(tariffs) x 20% = $140. Trump wants 20% corporate rate extended and ultimate 15% corporate rate. Most all the overseas US mfg might come home to moma. \nI would advise Trump to selectively wave tariffs on some items like lumber from Canada and food from mexico. As for oil from Canada I think Trump will let Chevron develop and buy heavy oil from Venezuela. If not might have to wave/reduce tariffs on Canadian diluted bitumen oil.

Trudeau has bailed. He is a narcissist and a failure and does not represent Canada.

The Prime Minister who resigned and also made the richest province in Canada have a lower GDP than Mississippi.

Partner and alli....???? Really.think again.Trump al ready dont want do trade with Canada, Mexico, China and soon will EU...and more.Dont cry any more.Let see how long this will take whowill accept their mistake.

This are Trumps policy that I didn’t vote for shame on Trump I’m with u Canada fight back 1000% times

I have no idea if Prime Minister Trudeau reads any of these comments or if his team does, but as an American, I am ashamed of our current government. We have a narcissist for a leader who is a bad businessman and a puppet of Putin. How refreshing to see a real LEADER who actually cares about his country and not himself. I support Canada wholeheartedly. I suspect many Americans will be hurt badly by these embargoes and (justified) retaliatory tariffs - but so be it.

canada i am so sorry for what the usa has done. trump is an angry demented old man. he bullies everyone including americans in office. he has the money of the drug addict elon behind him so that he can legally go after everyone. and god knows what trump owes putin. dont trust trump. i am thankful that leaders all over the world are standing up to trump, even if few american leaders can / will.

True American patriots are currently standing with Canada and Mexico, basically the rest of the planet. MAGA gotta go.

Critical minerals in Canada are shovel ready. Even if Trump pushed Ukraine to give up its minerals, it would take 10-15 years to get mines surveyed and then built.

CNN espionage is a major threat to America. Stop buying anything from Canada. We need more jobs in America!

CANADA: Grownups Speaking THE TRUTH.

tRump gave the Prime Minister the best gift ever, a war that Canada didn't start but rallies the whole country together against an antagonistic bully. Trudeau will get a 20 point bump in his approval ratings and go out a winner.

Oh Canada! We love you! Stand tall. \nI’m ashamed to be an American.

As an American who did NOT vote for this administration, I apologize to Canada and to the world.

Canada will stay strong forever.we stand together.

Canada❤ join the EU❤

Dear Canada: please know that this orange buffoon does NOT speak for the vast majority of Americans that value truth, integrity and other humans. He shows every day that he cares only about his ego, his personal wealth and his billionaire buddies. Taking the side of dictators is his stock in trade, as we’ve seen numerous times. God help us until we’re rid of Trump and his idiot sycophants!

Bravo Canada ❤
