The PM used harsh language? Donald calling him a governor is harsh, saying Canada does have a right to exist is harsh. The PM is being polite.

Justin Trudeau is hated by most Canadian folk.\nTrudeau needs to leave the stage, WOKE POLITICS is finished. \nAmerica will happily work with Canada ?? but not Trudeau.

The people commenting on here should move to Canada and make it better than the USA. (Good luck)

Thank you Canada

Oh, these comments are just hilarious.\nI've not seen one comment in disagreement of the speech you just made. What happened to all of them? Someone sorted and took them all down to pretend like every single person that commented was standing behind Canada. Hilarious. Of course we know this will be tough. You do what you have to do and USA will do what USA has to do. As a US citizen I have NEVER felt welcome crossing your border legally to visit while on vacation. You Trudeau are a joke.

An other FACT ; don' t get FOOLED !!! : Liberals parti was about to LOOSE the Governance of Canada... BUT this "WAR" again President Trump was what the LIBERALS WANT !!!! Because now some stupids peoples have started to think the LIBERALS are now our "SAVIOR"... Witch is the VERY OPPOSITE of the TRUTH ... Justin Trudeau have to go HOME ...

If I was the President of the United States I would give what voters want cut off Canada.

Trump: agent saboteur. Please forgive us for the lunatics marching to Putin’s drum who are running my country and attacking our allies, including wonderful Canada.

Let’s not forget all Trump asked Canada to do was to secure the US/Canadian boarder.

Trudeau is extremely impressive in government actions and in communicating as simply as possible to the people of USA, to explain what is happening and to implore that they pressurise their rotten Trump government. This is an attack on a very friendly government with 25% tariffs on everything but just 10% on China?? This is an attack to try to destabilise Canada to help in taking the country over. It won't work and everyone will suffer or lose.

its like americans forget canada are the reason for the geneava convention...

Retired south Florida resident who voted against Trump and cohorts. I stand with Canada ??❤ and every country who is supporting Ukraine ?? and President Zelenskyy.

Lol what fight? We don't need Canada for anything... They are pissed and need us so they will flex or or they will be down

This is a government that doesn’t need to makeup invisible enemies the way maga does ?. Good on you Canada for fighting back tyranny!

Tanks on railroad cars heading to Canada border

Trudeau is either a liar or he doesn’t have a clue about what is going on in Canada.\nThe borders we share with the United States are far from the fortress of security that he purports them to be. If they were indeed as impenetrable as he asserts, we would not be witnessing a continuous influx of illegal firearms—responsible for a staggering 99.9% of gun-related crimes here in Canada—crossing over from our southern neighbor. Yet, these illicit weapons are making their way into our communities, alongside a troubling wave of unauthorized entries into our country.

This shit will hurt Canada more than the USA

We don't need Canada

If Canada is in such a strong position , they should stop crying, stamping their feet , and threatening the US. Threats maybe are not wise with this administration considering I don’t think anyone in the world would be coming to save you .

I support Canada from Cape Town south Africa ❤

I stand with Canada

As an American I apologize to Canada we have no wish to betray you we are being betrayed from the inside!

Disgusting go Canada go

Go Canada ???

LOL...\n\nIn Canada... we have someone translate the French part.. He may be saying something new in the French part. \n\nYou guys can't afford a translator? Lol. The recessions already hit!

Canada everyone will stand up with you all and for what is right.\nThe only people who will stand with that orange despicable disgrace are: MAGA, DICTATORS, PEOPLE COMMITTING GENOCIDE and all THOSE WHO ARE CONTROLLED BY SATAN HIMSELF!!\nMAGA is a demonic cult with members who have got no LOVE, no EMPATHY, fuelled by HATE and are all just DEMONS with no soul!!\nGOOD WILL ALWAYS TRIUMPH OVER EVIL EVERY TIME.

We in UK are with Canada! We also love the US!! Please sort it out soon guys! The world is watching and so is President Putin!

Why don’t we have matured president like Canada???

From the Netherlands: I honestly admire the strong stance of Canada and have always felt their ethics and kindness are wonderful. I hope Europe and Canada can find new ways of trade and unity among this chaos.

I'm an American...I stand with Canada and Ukraine...The tariff is not about fentanyl... it's about Trump wanting Canada as a state.

Europe supports Canada !

Go ahead Canada Americans gotta learn that voting has consequences I live in Maryland this is a shame is being Shame to our country

Trudeau is a WEF idiot. His dictatorial crackdown during covid was second only to Australia. \nHow and why people listen to,or believe anything he says is beyond me. Canada is beautiful and the vast majority of its people are wonderful but Trudeau is... Really !

From Mississippi, standing with Canada and Ukraine

From Greece ?? , supporting Canada 100% . Stay strong dear Canadians!!

Bring it on...!!!\nCanada has lived in the comfort and shadow of the U.S. long enough. Let's see who cracks first.\nNo one needs Canada.

American army attack on Canada ? you run and go France ?

Let’s make America the 11th province \n\nIn Canada the mansions and yachts are not as big but our hearts are bigger\n\nHealth, education and decency for all!!! \n\n:)

As he sells all of Vancouver and the rest of Canada to communist China mostly on the West Communist Fentanyl coast

You always need to tell your friends when they are being dickheads. Well done Canada

The USA president Trump wants everything to be manufactured and sourced locally from the United States of America. He knows what happened during COVID-19 and what problems the world experienced because of a global supply chain. Now while it doesn't really make sense with Canada who is right next door the Canadians were given the opportunity to integrate into the USA so there could be some motive in that. And why wouldn't they want that anyway? Just remove the Canadian border and everyone becomes the USA. Why not?

GO......CANADA !!!!!

No one in Canada wants this man in Canadas office \n\nI back Donald 1000000%

CANADA HAS A TRUE, TRUTHFUL LEADER...NOT PUTINS PLAY THING ???????????

I am a dual Canadian/American citizen and I stand with my fellow Canadian’s and am embarrassed by Donald Trump and his brainwashed followers. I will do everything I can do to support Canada. Frankly the American citizenship is an embarrassment to me now. ??

From a fellow Commonwealth country Australia ??here, totally support Canada ??. Trump is a wannabe dictator and referring to Prime Minister Trudeau, whether you agree with his politics or not, as a “Governor” is not only disrespectful to PM Trudeau but to all Canadians. In the same way Trump disrespected Zelenskyy. This president and the current GOP has no shame. Do not back down Canada!

This is Leadership right here. Real leadership.. God Bless this world, and \n Canada we love you? Mr. Zelensky stay strong too...

Can I immigrate to Canada for asylum purposes from the U.S

Trump's Import Tariffs Are To Combat a Non-Existing Problem \n \nThe import tariffs that US President Donald Trump has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China are meant to combat a non-existent problem, economics editor Jonathan Witteman recently analysed. Trump sees the structural trade deficit (the difference between the export and import of goods and services) that the United States has with almost all of its trading partners as a sign of weakness. Contrary to almost all political left-wing and also right-wing economists, he believes that a trade deficit is bad for a country's economy and believes that the US is being cheated by countries that export more to the US than they import. \n \n'I have said that the EU must make up for its enormous deficit with the US by purchasing our oil and gas on a large scale. If not, punitive tariffs will follow', Trump said last December, for example, about the trade balance between the US and the European Union. \n \nA connection between a bad economy and having a trade deficit cannot be found, political economy professor Andres Freytag concludes in the analysis. There are many countries in the world, such as Germany, with a trade surplus but a poorly performing economy. The opposite is more likely to be true: in countries with a trade surplus, more people are unemployed. This was shown by the Peterson Institute. \n \nTrump's tariffs are more dangerous for the economy, because they reduce imports and exports, partly because other countries in turn impose punitive tariffs in response. Trump's announced import tariffs during his first term even led to a larger trade deficit and to 7.2 billion dollars in welfare losses in the US.

So are we pretending that Canada hasn't already had enormous tariffs on American goods?
