So who protects Canada now ?

Trump succeeded in getting Canada and Mexico to protect the US border, something the US couldn't do for decades. Claiming that drugs were flooding into the US from Canada is another Trump lie that the media promotes constantly. Trump is a dangerous fool, thinking he will buddy up with Russia and come out ahead. Better men than him have failed and paid a high price for trusting Putin. Wishing our US friends the best of luck under the rule of this radicalized tyrant

European here\nI love Canada ? ?? \nI love some Americans too\nThis year, we choose Canada for holidays, not US\nAnd we are very excited to go and spend our time and money in your beautiful country \nHang on Canada , we all will overcome from this

Maybe he should discuss the constant duty fees and border crossing fees for anything shipped from Canada to the USA that have been constantly rising for years; fees that his very own government sets. Maybe he should talk about Canada demanding that anyone that sells anything foodwise to anyone in Canada from the USA has to have a special Safe Food For Canadians Food License or the goods being shipped will be rejected at the US owners cost, seized by the border and held in storage at the US owners cost, and destroyed and billed to the US owner. A license that no one actually needs considering other legal and ethical controls are in place to prevent unsafe foods from crossing the border, but Canada reserves the right to make us pay for one or we suffer consequences. Maybe he should discuss how they left their borders open to migrants, making it much easier for criminal migrants to get into the US. Maybe he should understand that the US has always been bleeding money to Canada on a trade level for about half a century with it getting much worse in the last decade because Canada's government are greedy. Before any of you come at me, keep in mind I work in the food ingredient industry as an order processing, logistics and customs & border crossing and have done so for 15 years. These tariffs were a long time coming and if any of you are on the inside of trade in the manner I am, then you know what I'm saying is true. The US is constantly paying additional tariffs by way of duty fees, customs fees, certain applied taxes (like there is literally a blueberry tax to ship US grown blueberries into Canada to prevent US blueberries from taking over the Canadian blueberry market). The blueberry tax is about 25cents per lb. which drives the price per lb. up for the seller and buyer. You wanna know why Food costs so much? All of the above with a huge side helping of GREED.

I’m an American..DO IT CANADA!!WE ARE WITH YOU!!

As an american we stand with you Canada!

Yeah! Way to go Canada!!!??

I hope Canadians know that not all U.S. citizens agree with this. Canada has been a great neighbor to the U.S. This is a shame.

New Zealander here. Supporting Canada ? percent in their strong pushback against putns minion, trmp. ????

So, a country that had a 2024 60 billion budget deficit, depends on the US for trade is going to act tough? OK. Zelensky just learned what FAFO means the hard way. Now he is begging ... Trudeau and Canada will end up begging and getting humiliated again.

As an American I totally support Canada who has been our long time friend and ally.

This was not my choice. I did not vote for the orange clown and his jester. Please Canada not all Americans agree with what is going on. After his reign, please help us heal from this and other atrocities that have taken place.

Well done Canada , Trump is after your minerals

GO CANADA!

Donald Trump is THE ANTICHRIST and a BULLY Canada, we're with you Blessings and HUGS MARANATHA ???

FK Trump. Go Canada 2:52

America is not at war with Canada. Trump is at war with Canada. Remember half of the population rejected Trump during the election.

270% tariff on our farmers yet they don’t wanna talk about it. Feel it Canada.

I'm sorry Canada I didn't vote for that piece of shit but I'm sure going to have to pay for it

Mr Trudeau, may my family and friends come live in Canada? None of us voted for this big, fat, orange, narcissistic a**hole and his psychotic sycophants. Trump is only going to double down on all the things that piss him off. Look, if Trump thought he could make a dollar off fentanyl, he wouldn’t be against it - it’s just that he doesn’t get any of the cuts. And by the way, I don’t think I’ve ever heard “smart” and “Trump” uttered in the same sentence without “not” being inserted between them. Trump is an idiot. I have visited Canada and it’s beautiful, unspoiled, and intelligently ran. PLEASE let us come! Most of us stand firmly with Canada, Mexico, and Europe. I have never been so embarrassed to be an American in 67 years of life.

Europe stand with Canada ?? ??

Looks like Canada ain’t riding America ? no more

It’s nice to see Trudeau talking like he has a pair. He spent the last 9 years destroying the Canada so let’s not act like all our problems today are Trumps fault. Too little too late my friend. You should’ve woken up earlier but it took Trump for Canadian politicians to realize oh wait maybe we shouldn’t have all our eggs in one basket ? - from a Canadian

Liberals ???? Is why Canada was ruined. Not Trump

Jeez, when will the world realise that the US is now a puppet of Russia, just like it's a puppet of Israel. I think Canada and the rest of the world should take this opportunity to create new trade deals and lean-in to a new world order. The sooner world leaders accept this, the sooner the US can get on with imploding.

Well who’s ready for Canada to make America it’s next province ?

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!!!

So, who's going to call out Canada for their teriffs on us before this BS press conference

From UK?? standing with Canada Ukraine Palestine

Fentanyl and people trafficing from Canada to the Us is below 1%, in case you didnt hear this?

Canada is the best, they are doing such a good thing. Wrong, Trudeau is stupid for increasing tariffs, Trump will just increase them likewise...

Talk your shit Justin! Those of us that aren't complete r*****s know and love Canada, and know that America needs the world as much as they may need or rely on us.

Canada needs to do better

Why does he think Canada' is America closest Ally?

As an American and a Trump supporter, I agree with these tariffs, but only equal to the tariffs other countries charge the United States on our imports. I do not agree with imposing this on our brothers and sisters to the north. I’m speaking of the good people of Canada. I have traveled to Canada and crossing the border was just like crossing into another state. Yes, there was a border gate which there should be, but I had absolutely no problem whatsoever. I hope our government can work this out very quickly and stop this foolishness. But to countries like China and Europe the United States should charge a reciprocal tariff as to what you charge us on our import. It’s only fair. Why are we paying an exuberant tariff for our goods entering your country and you expect to pay nothing with your goods entering ours. Most Americans, love Canada and love our Canadian brothers and sisters, we’ve always supported each other in world, wars, and other attacks against our respective countries. I pray this is resolved quickly, and then we can once again live United and in harmony.

I wish you were my president! Thank you Canada

Impressive, dignified, fact based leadership. We ?? support you Canada ?? ❤❤❤

You all in Canada need a NEW STRONG PRESIDENT. HE'S SO WEAK

Sick Basterd, just wants free money, He is Going to Make it worse for Canada, Just like Ford. No Clue Politicians Can Not Do the Job they are just Takers, Not Makers!\nJustin Sit the F down, You don't run anything. stepped down Month ago, But wont Go! You Canada have a Problem, Letting the Political Child Play Running the Country. Bad as U Know.

Damn ive never seen a leader so scared. Cant wait to see what happens to Canada's economy a year from now.

First time he's stepped up. I still do not want Liberals in power. It's a great speech but he's created some of the problems in Canada. He should have closed the border years ago and paid more for the military help.. Too little too late but he's finally protecting Canada! No Putin no takeover, not Trump!

Im American. Cant say that proudly Anymore!! I Stand with Canada!! To the Canadians, Im soo sorry for what our Clown is doing to ya'll and Everyone! ?

I am a USA citizen, and I support Canada, and I hope your government stands strong against our dictator. It's about time that someone puts Trump in his place. And if he continues to trash Mexico, we will stand with her as well. There are many Americans who think our current President is a menace to the world. He is greedy, arrogant and filled with pride. God Bless Canada!!

You have destroyed Canada you crack pot

I am horrified by trump and his treatment of our good friend canada and his outrageous treatment of Ukraine

These are the tariffs Canada has imposed on the USA for years: \n \nMilk: 270% \nCheese: 245% \nButter: 298% \nChicken: 238% \nSausages: 69.9% \nBarley seed: 57-57.8% \nCopper: 48% \nAluminum: 45% \nSteel: 25% \nCars: 45% \nTVs: 45% \nEggs: 163% \nWheat: 94% \nBovine/Meat: 26.5%

Canada need to merge with USA

Mr. Trudeau I am American and I am with you and not our president. I agree totally with you as matter fact you have any openings. I’ll move to Canada too.?

We know why HE is doing this. He is pushing an imperialistic agenda, so he can be like those he admires. He's hoping that Canada will bend at the knee and give in so that he can claim Canada as a 51st state. But guess what? That won't happen. He's just doing himself and his country harm. He doesn't care about you, or me, or us as two countries that have always worked together. But we are setting up border security to keep American drugs, and weapons, and illegal migrants from coming into Canada. We're going to have to survive by reverting our trade to elsewhere, to depend on ourselves, to boycott U.S. products. We may be nice, but we are also tough. We love our society, our democracy, and our benefits. We won't give that up. Growing up, I lived in South Western Ontario, I used to go back and forth from Canada to the U.S. with no issues. Now, I'm sad to say, I won't ever be going to the U.S. again. Let's all hope for a brighter future for both countries.

??keep Trump out of Canada for G7 meeting he will bring his Russian agenda.....people protest Trudeau said he is still welcome... NO !!Stop sucking enemy toes
