You don’t want to see us hurt? You allowed drugs to pour into the us and did nothing about it!

Nobody ever said, with a straight face, that the orange blob is a smart man. \nThey need to turn off the power they send to the US. They need to order Starlink out of their country. They need to put a 100% tariff on all Tesla products, all products from Kentucky, Tennessee, floridumb, texass, and every other red state. They voted for this, it's what they wanted, so make it hurt hard.

Trudeau is wasting his time. There are millions of Americans who support Canada and Trudeau does not need to explain anything to them. The rest of the Americans are the idiots who support Trump and they will never change their minds no matter how much they get hurt by tariffs.

No one wins in Tariffs, its a tit for tat. Trump fail to understand his bully boy tactics only work on the vurnable. Countries dont pay this tax consumers do. Tariffs hurt the consumers with high prices and people jobs. US is alienating themselves and there allies will turn away towards other friendlier nations.

This dude is a total loser, hurting Canada for his own pride. Can’t wait til they dump him

Yes I think that is a dumb thing done by one person abondoning and hurting allies and friend.

Trudeau is exactly right, tRump has decided to hurt the people of the US, whether you voted for him or not. Canada is exactly right to react as they have, not just tariffs but all the boycotts they have started.\nThank you Canada for all your past support as we hope that we can return to being a good neighbor to you one day soon!

Yes I think that is a dumb thing done by one person abondoning and hurting allies and friend.

My president does not speak for me, or a lot of us Americans. I stand by Canadians, Ya'll our closet allies and fiends. \nOur president is hurting us an our best neighbor, its just sad

As a European having lived in both Canada and the United States for prolonged times, my view is this: Canadians are basically the same as Americans but with Health Care. They have a common heritage and history and this is like a brother turning evil and hurting its siblings. Trump is smart? I don't think so, he comes across as a low IQ individual born with privileges, heck he has been bankrupt what is it four times? Right now he thinks he is making America Great again but instead he is on a path to bankrupt even the US Economy. These kind of things in history often have caused actual physical War and he talks about Zelenski is toying with a 3rd world war. Wouldn't it be funny (and not in a comical sense) if in fact Trump causes the 3rd world war with his actions instead?

Prices are going up. Stocks are down. Allies are hurt. Putin is happy. Ukraine is falling. The world is laughing at America. Thanks Donald.

Who the f voted for Trump??? I can not believe Americans are so ignorant to vote for a criminal!! Now he’s destroying our country, hurting the wrong people and helping a murderer! We all knew he was a liar, corrupt and a criminal and they still voted for him!!!! I hope all those who voted for him are not happy and I hope they revoke their right to vote because they are too ignorant to have that privilege

wait.. i thought Tariffs only hurt the citizens in the country that's implementing them? oh thats just a talking point the left spews.

one has to stand up to bullies, trudeau I know what your doing calling trumpie smart its fine, also know you know he's not smart , a smart person does not hurt people in my country or yours.

We stand with ??. I’m an American and wants Canada to stand on business do not back down from trump. Showing love from North Carolina. It will hurt the American people but a lesson needs to be learned. We smart Americans with logic sense stand 10 toes down with Canada. Handle your business sir… we are with you. We have had enough with this fool and he needs to be gone by all means necessary. Time to take the gloves off AMERICANS and get this idiot out of office. ???

We need Trump where it hurts him passionately, BOYCOTT Mcdonalds

Do what you have to do Trudeau. We don’t blame you in America. Trump is disgracing us all over the world running this country into the ground. The stock market is down. Prices are up joblessness is up and this is before the tariffs. Maybe when these red state people can’t afford food, they will wake up to what we knew Our entire lives, watching the news in New York growing up. Trump‘s grandfather led to Europe to avoid mandatory military service. Not a single member of his family in-laws or any generation has ever served in the military. He has screwed over every contractor and blue-collar worker that ever works for him while grouping young, teen girls at his beauty pageants. Simultaneously bankrupting several casinos Trump state Trump airline Trump Water Stealing all the money from his charity, so he is never allowed to run a charity again and somehow, these morons elected him to be president of our country. If we have to hurt a little bit to get this cancer removed from our country so be it. Make America great again by praying for Trump to choke on a big Mac.

If everyone knows that tariffs hurt people living in the country that imposed the tariffs, what will the Canadian tariffs accomplish?

The 3 largest metal miners in Canada are a Canadian, UK/Australia and American corporations. This will hurt all 3.

Canadian here- we are not Anti-American- we are Anti- Trump. Half of Americans did not vote this idiot President. In true Canadian fashion- we feel bad hurting Americans who may lose their jobs over our actions. WE are not at fault for this. TRUMP is at fault!

Was Trudeau so nice when he stressed out the Canadian Truck Drivers? Didn’t that hurt Canadian families? This man is delusional!

Prime Minister Trudeau has spoken calmly the Truth of the situation, that Trump has imposed upon Canada and the USA.\nTrump does not care how much American people will Suffer, and has utter contempt for Canadians.\nThese Tariffs are Stupid and Pointless, that will do no good for Canada or the USA, and will hurt the USA the Most.

Europe take note we’re next. Kick Trump where it hurts. Support Canada. Stop USA aggression.

As a Canadian, I know the tariffs will hurt. However, I will not buy anything American. I will tighten my belt, and we will have eggs to supplement our diet. The USA is now a pro-Putin dictatorship.

It seems sad that it took an action such as the one the US government had to do, to make Canada realize that we should work together as provinces and as people. Canada knew very well that our big brother in the south has been fiscally hurting since years and had been racking up enormous government, corporate and private citizen debt. If this were to continue it would pull down every single country in the world. Perhaps if the US is becoming fiscally responsible, truly eliminate fraudulent and unnecessary spending and refocus on their local economy (just like China has been doing in the last years) the rest of the world and even Canada can finally focus on their strength and local markets. After all, don't we all miss our local stores, local artisans, vibrant neighborhoods with diverse businesses and a pride in having made in our own country? May I say that this Trump era will give the whole planet a new perspective for changing our ways, reliance on others and taking the easy and greedy road!

How come Trudeau said nothing about the Republican guns coming into Canada ?? from the Yankees ?these guns hurt our people ?

The American people don’t want this either. I couldn’t tell you for the life of me why we’re even doing this. It’s fucking stupid. Trump’s personal vendetta’s at it again. Hurting us all for no fucking reason.

Trump fentanyl with Canada is BS he destroyed in one month generation of Neighbors Allies Partners Friends Trudeau is not Liang to Canadian like you are to the Americans this is going to hurt both and is not going to make America golden ??????

Brother you're messing with a business man! You're the one going to hurt my friend.. good luck! Molon Labe

I don't think he understands that he just screwed over every Canadian by increasing the price of everything coming into Canada. Somehow he thinks that's going to hurt Americans ???

I can't stand Trump. He is hurting us all. As an American, I'm embarrassed. I'm so sorry to Canada and Mexico. This is not my doing. But I stand behind YOU and Not the orange man-baby!

Apologies on behalf of the selfish half of this country that helped put him in power. God save those who foresaw the hurt he’d place upon us.

Let us not forget, that there is also a boycott of travel to the United States which means there are billions of dollars that will not be spent on travel, on accommodation, on the purchase of goods while in the States because there is no longer vacation or travel being done by Canada. That is going to be hundreds of billions of dollars lost to US coffers. This is going to hurt America deeply.

So it will only hurt Americans family but not Canadian?? We can make those factory to produce from USA side. Sorry, I didn’t vote for trump.

I think they are missing it, trump is getting revenge for Putin. Putin had Tariffs that hurt him and he wants Trump to make the US allies feel his pain.

Boo the US anthem any chance you get.. thx for hurting my business dump. ? #1 always\nAmerica the stupid

Well done Canada ??✅.\nWe-the-people, are backing you with citizens in the USA boycotting our own country ??????it hurts everyone???

This trade war has zero justification in reality. It will only end up hurting consumers on both sides of the border and drive the economy into a recession. Trump is NOT a smart man, he just thinks he is. ?

It is said that if America imposes a tarrif on Canada, then Americans will pay more for Canadian goods. Possibly electricity too. Now, if Canada mirrors the actions of the US, then Canadians will have to pay more for American goods. So we are all just hurting ourselves in a way. Don't you love modern leadership? I suppose it's better than dropping bombs. But it's vile.

We don’t want to see you hurt either but the trade isn’t equal so even it out

We should have never let our country Canada be so dependent on America. Yes it will hurt us in Canada but I think we will learn from this. I hope Putin is as good a friend to you as we were!

I stand with Canada!! I know it will hurt us here in the States but Trump is in Russias pocket and Simone needs to stand up to the bully Trump! Thank you Canada! Stand strong!

To Justin Trudeau, any thought to cut up Felon Musk's Canadian Passport, I bet he will slow down and tell his vice president trump to back off, he is causing everyone even his best friend to lose money, check out any deals he has in Canada and cancel, make them hurt then some reality might slap them and they can see this shit don't happen in 2025!!!

We voted to be more independent from other countries. We voted to make America a producer again. \nIf Canada and everyone else wants to be butt hurt about it then so be it. It also makes sense to alight yourself with the country that could take out all of the other countries. Putin won’t live forever either. This is about the long game. America first! \nWe don’t need yall and yall don’t need us so you shouldn’t care and flip out over tariffs lmao

Why not just do what benefits your country? You whine as you know what Trump is doing will hurt your country but benefits US.

Don't say the United State, say dumb Dump and his team....I'm with Canada, Justin Trudeau & John Ford. It's going to hurt us I hate what that idiot is doing not only to us but to Canada & Mexico. Just a pathetic source of junk taking up space on earth.

Again, I will say we Americans love our Canadian friends! You have every right to come down hard on America. Make it hurt! Maybe Republicans will finally wake up to how cruel and hateful Trump is and see that he is totally out to destroy America not only at home but abroad.

Hell yeah Trudeau! The canadian whiskey is gonna hurt though.

Hurt Canada to appease Putin..

Even as an American, I am proud to think one American in particular watched Connor score his Overtime goal, only to realize he had lost his first stand off with Canada in such a public, humiliating way! Now to see the man his wife made the moves on address both nations with more toughness and intelligence than he ever showed has got to hurt him real bad! Well done Canada! All the love from your American fan and supporter! ??❤️??
