As an American I support Canada's stance. They are standing up to a bully and we need more brave leaders to do the same.

This action is part of a Bigger plan that we dont know about, but maybe, this is only PART ONE of things to be added onto Canada and force them to be sold/given to the USA and become The 51st State of The United States. #CanWeAllJustGetAlong

We are so sorry, Canada?. We love you despite our asinine leader.

I'm heartbroken for us all. Blame Canada (and Mexico), which is an artificial excuse. This allows him to impose tariffs. Putin wants this, and trump is his lapdog.

Chalice! as they say in Canada.

OMG, now Trump is going to send his lapdog Mr Vance to screem “Apologise to the president, You never say thank you, you disrespect this country USA, You never appreciate what we do for Canada”.

lol Fidel Trudeau on his way out after selling out Canada and giving his buddies billion dollar kickback deals (corruption and treason) scolding us? You chose a weak leader who has took you to the ground with him.

I find this speech has caused me to re-evaluate Justine Trudeau - he has become the statesman we always hoped he could be and he stated clearly Canada will retaliate for this incomprehensible attack on the greatest trading partner the US has.

I’ve never bought anything from Canada.

I think Trump’s plan is to disconnect Canada as ally and join Russia to defeat us and take over Canada

TRUMP IS WEAK \n\nbut Canada is weaker ??

Canada has a grownup president, we in the US has an infant for president..

Wait but, doesn't Canada have tariffs on us too?

Cut a deal with Russia to buy their natural gas and other products to replace Canadian goods while ramping up domestic production. \nStop selling Canada military equipment, let them produce their own.\n\n\nCanada will implode in 2 years.

Make your tariffs hurt, Canada. No safe word. We did this to ourselves.

Maybe Canada should up that to 35%

I feel like this is happening cause the USA wants to take over Canada and own it

A much needed voice of reason and strength at the same time. Our support from Austria for our friends in Canada. You would be warmly welcomed in the EU. ????

I'm in the US and Good for Canada for standing up to this orange tyrant!! Maybe I can get a temporary visa until the tyrant orange man is out of office.

Oh boy this is gonna get expensive. It's the crazy MAGA. Sorry Canada.

lol….the Davos nominee supports legalizing drugs….they run free drug clinics here in Canada from taxpayer dollars….u can have a pick of drug u want….he is lying thru the nose

I was never a fan of Trudeau but I applaud him here. Canada was pushed to edge so they are pushing back.\n\n??

Canada has a human being as president, not a piece of sh*t elite oligarch who is a puppet of even piece of shit elite oligarchs.

From Ireland, God bless Canada. We stand with you against bullies. May goodness and kindness prevail.

If you all love a guy that has ruined Canada and was in black face many times go live with him by all means. I love my Canucks but hate liberals. Go have fun paying your carbon taxes ?

Does Canada have a Department of Defense? The lack of respect is wild. Donald..? President Trump is the protocol. He represents the office of the United States of America. Make no mistake ask UK and Ukraine to provide defense. Pull the plug no need to be called a predator by your own neighbor... ?

The United States has multiple projects to build new nuclear power plants, including new reactors at existing sites, and new reactor designs. In nearest future US will not buy Canada's power.

Stay strong Canada from NZ! Looking for Canadian products to buy and US products to stop buying.

Time to take Canada over sorry time to enter a new world Make America Great again

I'm an American but I will support Canada in any which way I can.

Are you all out of your mind? It's President Trump, not Donald. We support our president. Canada can charge us terifs, but We can't?

Well Justin Trudeau what about the last 8years you penalized and persecuted your fellow countrymen and made them suffer high prices and the ability to live comfortably?it’s funny what you say president trump made your fellow citizens of Canada unite and stand up, something you liberals failed at.

I'm a taxpayer in the USA, who has also donated cold hard cash to Ukraine. I personally will not lick any russian boot, nor will I ask anyone else to. Slava Ukraini! Bless you Canada!

Love ya Canada. Concerned American.

Before everyone loses their mind over the grandstanding on either side… They should take some time to research the import/export world. If Trudeau thought he had the upper hand in this, he would have dropped the hammer. He doesn’t. The US economy will find a workaround before the 21 days are up, and Canada will have even less of a leg to stand on.

Canada should keep PM Trudeau! He seems to know his shit!! He should be asked to remain. HE can handle Trump! What if your next PM bows down to Trump, then Canada is screwed! Trudeau should NOT be leaving! He's doing a great job!!

Canada aligned with Genocide Netanyahu Mr Canadian prime minister. You guys are just same bird of the same feather.?

Your hurting your people more than you think. You can’t afford to put tariffs on your people. Canada will be the 51st state. God speed.

This guy is a joke. The people of Canada don’t even stand behind this guy. Worry about your borders and fentanyl problems.

I believe this media address of Trudeau will raise his approval rating in Canada?

This guy has made Canada another Pakistan, Breeding of Terrorist

Funny Canada and US go hand and hand , but I haven’t seen Trudeau at the bargaining table with US on anything other then their own self interesst… odd how that works. hmm there’s just a empty seat next to trump and Putin, not your place I guess.. governors don’t usually do that sort of thing. ?

Thank you Canada......how refreshing to hear Truth and Clear speaking to help us understand. We are scared here in the US - it seems impossible that this is happening.

THANK YOU CANADA! Some Americans lack the good judgement NOT to elect a dictator.

Canada is our largest supplier of fertilizer which is needed for food production. We could starve from Trump's actions

I love me some Canada Dry

My apologies to Canada from Florida, together with my family and friends.

Good for Canada. The USA is poisoned by MAGA.

Sorry Canada we have a complete Bafoon in the Whitehouse

Hey Canada, maga can’t pull their head from their ass long enough to understand anything . Once our economy fails maybe that will get their attention.
