You want to give tariffs to United States but you don't want to accept none that's wrong!

Truduea is a lier and the United States has protected Canada and kept them going for years. Tariffs is what they need to straighten them out .

I agree with all of it! Most Americans actually are reasonable and are not in favor of the tariffs!

Dont put Tariffs on the USA as they are passed onto the end user/consumer which are the American people. Put the prices up on your sale of electricity, oil and gas 25% that the US government buys, so it hits them first and they will think twice. ..... Trump never mentioned cost of living in his acceptance speech which had us wondering. This is why.

Bravo President Trump! Keep the tariffs on Canada and Mexico!

Trump hates the trade deals we have with Canada and Mexico. But wait a second that was his trade deals he made with Canada and Mexico during his first term. He said it was a great deal when he did it! And the stupidest thing is none of these tariffs are going to reduce the fentanyl if anything maybe 1% or 2% less.

I must say even though he's had his flaws while in government, this speech was great! Right to the point, talking to Americans, the Donald and Canadian's. Stating the facts, what they have done as asked, and how Donald is trying to ruin the country with an illegal attack of unjustified tariffs.

Matching tariffs is not a trade war you idiot

So let me get the straight we are now friends with the enemy.. and made our Friends the enemy.. Oh maga.. you definitely made America great again with this move.. the Israel move you made… Inspired more hate around the world which puts US citizens at risk… Great move on with that one… and the economy tariff bull ish.. made me loose 50 percent of investments… in less than 2 months… Just incredible

Canada’s tariffs has almost no affect on the US. Maybe Canada should shouldn’t be aligning with China and should pay their share of things like defense. You people will believe anything told to you by CNN. You people will put Canada and Mexico before America.

Brazilian steel is the resource used by U.S. navy to build their ships and whatever. \n\nWait the brazilian counter-tariffs.\n\nTrump is fighting against all at the same time. It's a strategic mistake. \n\nYou won't pivot to China acting this way.\n\nDumb.

1000% tariffs on Tesla!

Not telling why Canada was imposed with 25% tariffs . President Trump told you Mr. Trudeau 30 days ago if you did not put your military on the border to keep illegal immigrants from crossing into the United States he would do this. So you were warmed! Do not get up there and lie! We voted for President Trump to close our borders cause when he campaigned he said he would and he's sticking to his promise.

Trumps tariff wars are smoke. What is his real agenda he wants to hide by keeping us busy with this?

This is propaganda both governments are using tariffs to draw more resources from their population

Y'all Canada going to put tariffs on USA really y'all still dnt get it right you dumb Canadian Trudeau the reason Trump put a tariffs again let me explain myself it's because of Cartel's for stoping crossing fentanyl from your border if you dnt stop from y'all part of the bargain of letting Cartel's crossing drugs n trafficking from ur country to USA country ok

“There are no winners in a trade war, so we are going to immediately engage in a trade war.” No one even acknowledges Trump’s justification for retaliatory tariffs be it wrong or stupid or whatever. Everyone just acts like he decided to do it out of the blue.

Why are we insulting Russia. Russia should be our trade partner. Yet, we support Israel. Disgusting. I agree with the tariff stance, but the whole Russia and China criticism is rooted in Canada's relationship with the US. They're enemy was our enemy. Smart'n up Trudeau.

As a Canadian, the enemy’s enemies are my friends…drop the tariffs on Chinese EVs and put 100% tariffs on Tesla, two birds with one stone

We don’t need your goods but use sure do need ours another the Americans know who you truly are Justin T a clown ? your no different than the Biden administration and the woke left peace to you my friend you’re people should vote you out and become our next state and there won’t be tariffs use come here to do business and as we you are a woke leftist and scared ? of what is to be discovered with Epstein and Clinton’s Obama Chaney we know the truth

Trudeau is a Liar and a Thief. He has only Hurt Canadians. Now he is trying to pretend he is Worth Keeping around. We all know he is not. They have had Tariffs on American Products for Decades already Stop acting like a tough guy.

IT WOULD BE SMARTER FOR CANADA TO COOPERATE WITH AMERICA BY CLOSING THE BORDER AND NOT ALLOWING ILLEGAL DRUGS TO ENTER AMERICA. TWENTY FIVE % TARIFFS UNTIL THEY COOPERATE.

Imagine voting for Trump over inflation while he was saying he would use tariffs and people thinking it wouldn't affect them. So naive. Trump is an agent of chaos who is anathema to everything this country stands for, and it's self-evident by his actions. We are a country who is strong because of our friends around the world and no one will trust this country when we keep putting an idiot in office who doesn't honor former president's agreements. You can't work with a country who won't stick to it's agreements. You wouldn't tolerate a friend like that, and this is the same thing on a macro level.

Governor Trudeau, Canada has been imposing Tariffs to the US for years, you are a joke?

The orange clown still does not understand how Tariffs work. It is evident he thinks it's a tax and when he sees the numbers in terms of government revenue accredited to tariffs, he ignorantly believes the country is making money. His understanding so simple he thinks he has raised GDP and is making America great again when in fact he is single handedly and in the face of universal opposition destroying the economy and causing grievous hardship to millions of Americans. Apparent friend to our worst enemies and himself the biggest enemy of the people.

Trudeau's desperation and fanaticism are unmatched, he is sacrificing the economy and the Canadian people for his ineptitude and fanaticism, the tariffs are a consequence of his total negligence in allowing laboratories and trafficking of Fentanyl in Canada, in addition to his fanatical support for the corrupt puppet of Biden and the globalist left Zelensky. Simply his fanaticism and ignorance lead him to claim an economic war with America, he forgets that the poorest state in the USA has a per capita income higher than the richest state in Canada! Its economy depends on America for more than 287 billion annually! This political arrogance is only the confirmation of his lack of leadership and is dealing a fatal blow to the Canadian economy.

Trump is extorting Ukraine for something we already swore we'd do if Ukraine gave up it's nukes. Trump is extorting Canada in much the same way. China maybe as well. It's not okay. The only tariffs he should be signing is on Russia.

Sec of Commerce said Trump might rollback tariffs against CAN & MEX during State of Union address tonight AFTER NOT EVEN 1 DAY!!!

Mr Trudeau is extraordinarily soft, soft as feathers, it really amazes me that Canada and Mexico rush the all month of Jan and Feb to captures felons to avoid tariffs, very poor speech. He claims that he is doing it to protect the people from Canada the real question is why you didn’t do it before.\nClaudia Sheinbaum also rushing to capture the bad guys, when clearly Trump is offering help to capture the corrupt politicians and cartel lords but No, instead she delivers 29 guys that were already captured and been in jail for years… What it’s this ? It’s like ordering a Ribeye steak and getting a pizza. Come on !!

this guy is a dictator and most Canadians hate him the very reason he was supposed to step down but refuses to have an election to replace him just like Ukraine. you pump Chinese goods across the borders allowing China to sell here with no tariffs. you allow China to pump fentanyl across the border as well just like Mexico has been doing. Im not feeling sorry for this dictator. people for freedom dont freeze the peoples bank accounts that protest them like you did. best for Canadians to replace this fool before he drags Canada under before he voluntarily steps down. good luck Canadian people in getting rid of this dictator.

To all Americans planning to travel to the Netherlands, or Holland ??, taxidrivers are adding a 30% tariff on their rides for American tourists, and 50% for businessmen. Happy travels ?

Texan here. If I was Canada, I would have put a 30% Tariff against the U.S. Canada didn’t start this Fight, Trump did!!!!!!! U.S. Air Force Combat Unit Veteran, and I stand with all of NATO and Ukraine, and I can’t forget our Freinds on the Southern Border Mexico. Americans will always be Friends with Canada, you should be very proud of your Prime Minister, or President?

It took 9 years and on his way out, but Trudeau finally united Canadians. Not happy about tariffs but here we are. Elbows up eh ya hosers

I don't think most Americans realize how much the price of everyday items clothing, electronics, toiletries/cosmetics, food, housing, etc will increase because of these tariffs. If they think inflation was bad under Biden, they haven't seen anything yet.

I am an American and stand with America. ?? if ya know how much Canada charges the U.S in tariffs ya wont stand with canada

Trudeau screwed Canadians & they couldn’t wait to get him out of office!! \nCanada is broke and can’t afford 25% tariffs. All Canada has to do is open business in USA!\nMade in the USA ?? \nCanada gave 20billion to Ukraine vs USA giving over 150 billion plus militaryequipment equipment. Ukraine realizes Trump was right, The WAR needs to end. ????????????

Canada's Tariff applied to the United States will cause some price inflation, price increase, for a short time until the United states establish compaines to produce the same good and services that were tariffed. Once goods and service producted by the United States exceeds the Canadian goods and services that were tarriffed, the prices will come down. President Donald Trump did this to grow United States and Employment and cause price deflation over the long term. Hopefully Canada has the resources to do the same. I hope every body is blessed through Jesus Christ's name. Amen.

As a Canadian, so proud of Prime Minister Trudeau! Go for it, hit America with huge tariffs! Bully trump and his lap dog should sit up and take note!!!!!!

In blistering speech… ???? Yea ok, wait till they see those blistering tariffs

reciprocal tariffs aren't a trade war DIPSHIT

As long as Trump and his administration align themselves to dictators and impose outrageous tariffs on our allies and head toward an authoritarian government, all countries from the free world need to fight back against these unfair tariffs being imposed by the Trump administration. New torch bearers for the free world and the unified free world needs to decouple from an undependable, disloyal, Trump led US. Trump is tarnishing the legacy of the US in real time.

Trump is boss and Canadians are going to eat our tariffs and love it.

I’ve strong feeling that this will end with trump scraping the tariffs . Then doing a deal with the Ukrainian government. And carving up their resources between \nFrance,the USA and the uk . We’re all being gaslighted in my humble opinion.

U people R idiots. Put effort into securing your borders and there wouldn’t be a need for tariffs. Americans are tired of wasteful spending. U got away with it with sleepy joe, but those days are over.

Trudeau about to catch some bombs with talk like that. The American People support Trump and the tariffs. Canada knows they can't fight us. Trudeau should bend the knee now to avoid the destruction later.

All we hear is how our government is saving so much money and now imposing higher tariffs, yet we’ll continue with the same tax deductions while struggling to keep up with the rising cost of everyday expenses. Meanwhile, politicians continue to tell us that this is America’s golden age?

Trudeau already said this nonsense last month. Virtually the same tariffs. Same points. \n\nCanada’s economy is down too and has been for a long time. \nTheir stock market is low. \nTheir RE is too high for its citizens. \n \nThey can’t win a tariff war due to attrition. And Canadians can ban together to not shop American as they been doing already. \nAnd none of you on this platform can do anything about that either. \nY’all can stand with Canada as much as you like. That doesn’t dismiss the fact that their tariffs on America was higher than America’s tariffs on Canada prior to this “tariff war”. \nAlso ya’ll can’t denounce citizenship and migrate over to Canada. Because they will not accelerate their process for citizenship. And will not accept the infinite number of you all.

Trump don’t care about his people, what he wants is make the investors invest in USA in order to not charge tariffs like if it were easy to do and get back on 2000 year when the baby Bush triggered the massive investment in china and out of us soil; smart punk then. Labor wages are more higher than in china or mexico or any other country.

Just remember: These other countries imposed tariffs FIRST. Oh, but we can't do it? Gtfoh

That's why Trump put a tariffs on China if China dnt stop sending fentanyl to Mexico.
