@robertedward7023 The channels you watch spoon fed you propaganda day and night. Try doing your own research for once in your life. Canada is making everything that goes into Fentanyl. They do NOT want our borders closed. Go see how much is really coming in from the northern border. It's not the 2% that they apprehend!!!! It kills 200 Americans PER DAY!!! EVERYDAY!!!

Canada should immediately shut down all electricity, minerals, building materials and oil exports to the USA. They have plenty of other customers worldwide. I'm American.

Who cares what he has to say. He is not Canada 's PM anymore and no longer represents us.

Screw Canada! Screw the EU! Screw CNN!

Bravo Trudeau ?????? As an American, I stand with Canada & Ukraine & against the traitorous, sniveling, corrupt executive branch of our government

As an American, I can say I 100% stand with Canada and their response. Trump and his henchmen are LITERALLY severing ties with our greatest allies while simultaneously sucking up to scumbag Putin! I can’t understand how this can be a good thing? We’re becoming just another authoritarian nation at this point…

What the heck does Putin have on Donnie? Was it pedophilia on Epstein's Island? was it sex with boys and girls? Was it the mythical pee tapes? Whatever it is it has to be big enough to get Donnie to break with all the US's traditional allies which has to be making Putin rub his hands with glee. How far does this adjudged rapist, and 34 count felon that the US decided it wanted to make it's President, have to go before someone steps in and say that Trump represents a clear and \npresent danger to the economic and military security of the world? His administration forced New York's director of the FBI to resign because that man did not want to give up the names of personnel who investigated the Jan 6 insurrectionists. He put a known Russian apologist, Tulsi Gabbard, in charge. He has frozen aid to a country actively fighting for it's very survival against an aggressive and expansionist Russia. He applied tariffs against Canada and threatens the same against Europe., he has banned the freedom to protest in colleges though he freed people imprisoned for rising in actual insurrection against the Government. Dictatorship comes in steps isolation from the world and suppression of freedoms are but two. The free world weeps for what the US is becoming under this current administration.

All countries must do what Canada is doing we tired of republican thugs trump his a devil sick crazy old man imperialist we are not leaving in the olden days the world has change America will be finished soon

This is totally on Trump. Canada did not choose this. I’m proud of the way Prime Minister Trudeau is handling this.\n\nTrump is not such a smart man. Smart men don’t attack friends and allies.

Europe and other NATO countries and affiliates, like Canada, are going to have to develop or implement their contingency plans, as they have been. We are no longer a reliable ally to anyone. It's the United States government, not the people of the United States, although somehow we reelected this clown show.\n\nNot a conspiracy theorist, but I will never believe he freely won all 7 swing states.

Trump isn't dumb. While he creates chaos and outrage, you are getting robbed every day so badly you will foreget that Canada ever existed.

I stand with Trudeau and Canada

This dude is a joke. Canada is like the progressive left. Yesterdays news . And Trudeau don't scare nobody

Has it not occured to anyone to mention the the flow of illigal migrants does not flow south from Canada but more are trying to get into Canada from the US.

American from Colorado stands with Canada. Take the lights out in the red States.

Maybe Trudeau can use the tariff incomes to expand Canadas military? I suggest pilot training and recruitment in the RCAF and RCN.

Unbelievable how all these comments show that the wool has been drawn over all your eyes. This man is a tyrant and cares not for his own people, never mind the Americans. Go ask the truckers and real grafters of your country.\n \nAll I can say is what he’s doing here with this speech and his actions is he is in fact sugar coating it and this is making it more likely that Canada will be the he 51st state. So I welcome you Canada with open arms. Xx

Trump needs to be held responsible for this mess. With Ukraine, with Canada, and with Putin. He lied to us, as he always does.

Go Canada ✊

Trudeau aided european leaders and Zelinsky to undermind an end too an unwinable war and kill Americans and steal more US money.HE IS A TRAITOR TO THE USA !! The GDP of Texas Is 2.4 trillion..The GDP of Canada the freeloader RAT state Is 2.1 trillion..BURN ! like those churches godless liberal socalist filth...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gLN3QoN-q8

As an American, I don’t support Trump and am embarrassed and ashamed these tariffs are happening. Not all Americans support Trump. Canada is still a friend and ally to me. Trump is a terrible, ignorant person.

BTW Mexico is NOT a friend CNN lol - Tariffs on mexico im fine with Canada doesnt need any

We got this Canada! ?? I hope everything gets better soon with our American friends.

I love how Americans say they stand with Canada, that’s gonna change real quick once you see your grocery bill

Thank You President Trudeau! Many millions of Americans support you and Canada. Our Fat Orange President and JT Vance are in Putin's Pocket. Wake Up America!

I stand with Canada! Greeting from Netherlands ????

Ukraine is a lost cause and not America's problem, Canada should send some of the millions of Indians they're happily replacing their citizens with to go die in Eastern Europe instead of demanding the US play babysitter for the rest of the world for no gain

True Americans stand with Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Panama and against EVERYONE that Trump is for!!!!

Hey Canada, Europe will buy your oil.

No it didn’t it’s make you pay your way stop your drugs clean the border up and like tump said like for like tariffs Canada, despite its nose to save its face

Maybe it's time for Canada to get together with Great Britain and with EU and put economic sanctions on the USA?

Hey if it makes you feel better Canada, the DOW dropped 1000 points in 24 hours and is still dropping. Dumb dumbs are going to blame dems and Biden maybe even Obama for that.

I'm usually reasonable enough to realize that while I may disagree with many policy decisions, there's usually a relatively coherent line of thought to back said actions up. The problem here is that there’s no clear logic behind using tariffs as a tool to curb fentanyl trafficking or immigration. I'm not going to speak on the issue of immigration at the Canadian border because there simply is none. Yes, there are illegals from Canada, but almost 100% of them are from overstaying visas rather than crossing the border unlawfully. So let's talk about fentanyl. \n\nMost fentanyl in the US originates from China, often in precursor form, and is then processed in Mexico before being smuggled into the states. But it's typically trafficked in small, high potency quantities, often hidden in legitimate shipments or through mail, and only on very rare occasions is it being brought in by individuals crossing the border. It has _never_ been documented to have shipped in as part of large scale commercial imports, so a 25% tariff on legal trade with Canada and Mexico doesn’t directly target the black market supply chain at all.\n\nIf we take Trump’s reasoning at face value, the argument seems to be that he wants to exert economic pressure on Mexico and Canada as a means of having them crack down harder on drug trafficking networks. But the issue is that fentanyl simply isn’t coming in through mass import channels, so all this looks like is a punitive measure without a clear mechanism to actually achieve its stated goal. And the implications? Drastically higher costs for consumers in the US, Canada, and Mexico, with absolutely nothing to show for it.

So you had to hurt Canada by putting a tariff on their stuff so we can pay more for our product that we buy from them? I would say just let them pay more on our stuff and go from there.

Trudeau is not that popular in Canada, but he is one thing,he's not Trump.He cares about Canadians, and our Sovereignty. Trump has sold out Americans to Russia, and is president only to keep himself out of prison and to enrich himself from the position. He has no interest in the American people, only in revenge for supposed flights to him by just about everyone, as he is a petulant child.

Canada is the British mouthpiece! U.S.A needs to be free and Independent from City of London!

Bravo, Prime Minister Trudeau! Elbows up, Canada!!!!

LORD God please bless Canada and protect them from the USA's bludgeoning crooked foolishness.

?man no one worried about Canada who is Canada if they want to smoke they can get it it's a joke USA!! 4life

Donald Trump claims to be a Christian but what he is doing to other countries and his own country by firing people from government jobs is totally against God God gives life he don't take it and he would never have sent people to the streets just because some politicians created a job for the people this is going to cause people to lose their homes vehicles and their livelihood it is totally evil. And then placing these tariffs on other countries is no less than say I want your country he wants Canada he wants Panama, he wants Ukraine's lithium. And he wants to take it all and he is wrong in that because he is affecting people's lives and God Almighty will not put up with Donald Trump giving into the spoiled brat Elon Musk and his dictatorship attitude. Both Elan and Trump have no heart for the poor or the hardship they have placed on these people but God Almighty has a heart for the people who have lost their jobs and their livelihood because of Donald Trump and Elon Musk. In the book of Isaiah God said to the people that were coming against Israel, you have pissed on a wall. And everybody knows that when you piss on a wall it's going to come back on you and that's exactly what's happened. They didn't do it to the people that lost their jobs they did it to God Almighty who loves all people and wants them to have their wages. Maybe Elon Musk knows everything about technology and space craft, but the man ain't got a lick a common sense he has exactly zero wisdom when making decisions. But his greatest lack as he has no heart for the people who are going to be disrupted by losing their jobs he doesn't feel a thing he has no heart he needs to read the Bible because that's where your heart gets developed and you know right from wrong. And you know what God approves of and what he doesn't, and I'm telling you right now God Almighty does not approve of what Donald Trump and Elon Musk are doing. I voted for him, and now I am ashamed that I voted for him because he never mentioned he was going to do all this horrible horror to the very American people that voted for him. Now I pray for God's divine intervention because what he's doing to the American people and to other countries is not right

Long live Canada

Our Prime Minister fibbed on one aspect 'Donald is NOT a smart man' There, fixed it. Oh, Canada! The True north strong and free.

Presidente Trump told you a month ago about the trade deficit in favor of Canada, also he told you about the fentanyl problem, but you ignored it and now you are complaining. What the f...

People forget that Canada has been ripping off the usa and has been subsidized by usa generosity for a long time. We have problems can't afford to continue unfair and unreasonable trade while our national debt continues to skyrocket.

Canadian leaders, please do not let Zelenskyy sign a mineral deal with the US. trump is setting Ukraine up to fail and take advantage of the Ukrainian people, like he lied to Americans. The world needs to now fight Russia and the White House. I stand with Canada and Mexico even though it is going to hurt my pocketbook...
