Not fair- think they can get free everything without doing any work or being paid from our American ?? coffers. It is criminal!!

I have a hard time believing that our government finds so much money to allow illegals to function. I’m a veteran so I have had the opportunity to visit other countries and you can’t pull that crap anywhere but here. You can’t work or rent or anything without proper paperwork. Our government should just takeover the Mexican government and end the corruption that keeps these talented and hardworking people down so much they risk everything to get here to do what they should be able to do there. So since they want to be over here so bad let’s just take the country and start taxing them like real Americans. Sorta like a new Puerto Rico but much closer.

DEPORTATION NOW! NEWFOUNDLAND now re increase student allocation.. Just shows once these liberals are in they will reverse everything BACK. Never trust liberals

Good, both Canada and Mexico have been doing whatever they want when it comes to America. Everything America needs can be produced within America. This also could help both Canada and Mexico to create their own economy.

I have lived in Canada for 70 yrs. We will not submit to a want a be dictator-. Hes putting the blame on us when its his fault from all his failed promises hes made before and now. Hes really going to hurt the American people with everything going up in price. Trump will be made to step down im sure do to his ridiculous actions.

Biggest loser from this trade war is Microsoft's video gaming division.\n\nWhile the Playstation 5 and Nintendo Switch are made in China and Japan, the Microsoft X-Box Series S/X are American made.\n\nAs a result, the PS5 and Nintendo Switch will not face a 25% tariff from the Canadian Government, but the X-Box Series S/X will.\n\nI'm surprised that Bill Gates and Microsoft are not fighting for Canada and Mexico even though they have everything to lose.

The EU is next. How long have they been tariffing and banning US products? I feel the Americans are tired of paying for everything

YES YOU DID EVERYTHING YOU SAID. AS A MAN .

Dont blame Trump for all this. Blame President Lincoln, Wilson, Taft for creating taxes. Roosevelt for enacting a bill into law for charging taxes to the American people for social security, Reagan for shutting down factories in US & leaving US to foreign Countries for cheaper cost. Bush, Obama, Biden for bad foreign trading policies & bad spending usage, budgeting of our tax payers money that put US in dept by the trillions. These past Presidents were running our Country into the ground at our expense. President Trump is getting back our Country out of Debt. Alot of reforms needs to happen. Decrease taxes on everything, make startup business easy to survive & sustain. Enact bills into laws to control all Corporations from overpricing their goods to consumers. Lower all consumer goods. Give tax breaks to all business. Taxes should come from other Countries & zero from the American peoples pockets, end to taxing the American people. ✊️

Bought everything I could of $Qardun Token before it launches

We Nigerians have everything but we cant used it

As an American, I have been paying exorbitant prices for everything since 20 January 2021. At least now when I pay a premium, The United States will benefit and not every other country but the United States. So kiss my a$$ Justin.

Let’s get this straight Canada sends 77% of their exports to the US and Mexico sends over 80% of their exports to the US. Who has the upper hand? We buy less than 20% from each country and we can build everything here. We will.??

Europe and Canada could both hugely benefit from closer trade relations. Imagine what 4 million barrels of oil a day would do to reduce costs for almost everything in Europe.

What is sickening and sad is that the leader of the Conservative Party in Canada fully, absolutely endorses everything Donald Trump does. Pierre. is anti-Canadian Pierre is anti-liberal anti-government, but pro Republican pro Trump and Pro Project 2025. Pierre is a horrible, terrible, evil person to Canada and Canadians Pierre wants to be leader of the Republican Party of Canada and governor of the 51st state.

This is going to hurt All Canadians and will extremely hurt Mexico. \nIt's only going to hurt yearly profits of 1% of Americans and those with CanAm's and anything Bombardier or Rotax. The automotive industry will just come back and have to eat the margin losses until they recoup. They still have plants here, they just have to bring everything back, rehab the buildings and start hiring and training folks.\nChina is the problem because they make everything and ship a lot of goods into this country... \nWe joyfully took our major manufacturing there instead of keeping it all here and becoming an industrial complex like they did as perfect capitalistic communists ...\nOh, but I forgot, regulations, mandates and emissions drove away most of our industry along with greed to increase margins. Until those regulations, mandates and emissions standards are changed, there's going to be a major manufacturing concern in this country.

Thats ok we should made everything in US. They sure didnt care if we had to pay tariffs.

Trump had 4years to think about everything he is doing . People like him write everything they think of everyday . Its going to work out for the USA whatch and see.

This is the best thing that could happen. I hope we stopped all trade with Canada Mexico, and make everything in America. We need jobs here.

everything is so politicized now. for those how dont know ancient Greece was probably the first nation to use tariffs to protect their own products... to keep their own farms and pottery industry healthy and not rely so much on outside countries for staple goods Alexander Hamilton adopted this approach for America \nHamilton's goals for tariffs: \nRepay the country's foreign and domestic debt \nMeet the government's operating expenses \nPromote manufacturing in the United States \nFulfill the goals of his Report on Manufactures \nmind you there were NO INCOME TAXES... that's right.. absolutely NONE! the entire nation ran on funds from tarrifs!

There’s nothing Canada can do when they have a surplus of 150 billion with US so if US put terrace at 25% and can put Terrace at 25% then Trump put it at 100 who’s gonna feel the pinch everything that has American they have gas they have wood they have all the minerals of Canada has they don’t need Canada for anything. And you think that I’m proud of American. I’m actually Canadian but I’m a realist needs America America doesn’t need Canada.

This is the biggest mistake Trump made,ordinary people who are going to suffer most,tax will go up that means everything will go up.\nAmerica will no longer be stronger

castro junior thinks he can slurp his way to everything. Lucky for US and the rest of the world not with President Trump. He has had 2 months to even try to fix the borders, he has done NOTHING

Canada and Mexico should trade only with each other ???. that will be the result of whats happening. Mexico can grow more foods than america and Canada can provide everything that the US does.

So let me get this straight. Trudeau is imposing tariffs on the U.S. to make everything Canadians import from the U.S. that they need more expensive to Canadians and Trump is doing the same thing for everything from Canada though we need none of it and therefore will stop buying any of it. This will not go well for Canada. Ouch!!!

THE WORST THING YRUDEAU DID TO CANADA. NOW WE ARE GOING TO SUFER EVEN MORE! TRUDEAU HAS TAXED YOU EVEN MORE. DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT TERAFFS WILL DO TO YOU THAT TRUDEAU HAS JUST DONE? NOW YOU WILL PAY EVEN MORE FOR EVERYTHING!

As an Australian I have boycotted everything from the USA from today.

canadian here - we should put tariffs on energy only, the tariffs on everything else will just hurt Canadians, if our dollar is crappy Americans will spend money here if there are no tariffs.

Hahaha Canada is going to fold…their economy cannot stand the tariffs more than 6 to 8 days. The US can in house or import everything from other countries. Canada doesn’t have the luxury…the US protects the moment of their goods. \n\nBtw Germany…the US protects the moment of your goods as well…don’t test the US.

Tariffs can be a useful tool but it shouldn't be the only tool. For this US president it's like his only tool. Applying tariffs to everything is like trying to use a hammer to fix everything. It will just end up hurting ordinary people ?

US tariff 25% for everything except 10% for energy. Canada only tariff about 150 B among 800 billion us import. Is this a huge retaliation.

Both Mexico and Canada have fallen into Trumps trap, if you do not see it, let me explain. Trump has been pushing for more manufacturing at home, for more oil drilling and for more rare minerals mining. He can impose those tariffs and either Canada and Mexico agree, or the do exactly what they just did, think they can win a economic war with the United States. See, Trump gets what he wants either way, they don't cooperate, Trump gives huge tax incentives to companies to start producing here in the U.S. which will in turn reduce the price of everything for Americans, see, if you produce it here instead of overseas, Canada or Mexico, we can pish for a huge increase in overall production reducing the costs to consumers, since the products no longer have to be imported. Like i said, sometimes i don't think the left has any brains left.

Because promised to surrender EVERYTHING of the USS to any scumbag criminal.

This is the consequence of depending on one country in everything. Diversify Canada. We love United States and we hope things gets resolved

As a European living in Canada I noticed right after we got here that quality and even availability of good European product is lacking. All the American backwards product never impressed me. The only thing is that Canadians are so slow with everything. Also nice Toyota trucks, right from Asia, I never understood that just because they aren't available in the US, why don't we have them here?

Trump is to blame for all of this. But he is not smart enough to understand everything, so someone else must have thought this up, someone who will not be affected by this. I will boycott everything I can that comes from any Republican state.

The crux of the matter is that both countries are running huge federal deficits and needed an avenue to increase taxes in it's citizens. The politicians of both nations pulled a fast one on their citizens who now will pay paying more taxes in the form of higher prices on everything.

Everything to own the libs. Titus killed his son to appease the emperor. Look what happened to Titus.

Wow - this makes me sick - bunch of entitled ass-wipes - and don’t come back at me - I’ve known hunger and poverty. Venezuelan people are hated in most of Mexico, Central and South America. They come from a communist country and they are used to getting free everything. They cross 7 countries to shop for the best country with the best benefits near them hence the U.S. Biden messed the U.S. big time by giving them each thousands each in an EBT card to buy their own food cuz they complained about the free food we provided and therefore they were given the money cards and free luxury hotels for housing, free medical, etc. So their people contacted their people over there that we give free luxury 5 star hotel living and money cards over here, open border, etc. We had some at my apt. complex - broken glass in the pool, loud music way past midnight cuz they didn’t have to work -went on for about three years till they were finally evicted. Rudest people i’ve ever met. SMH

Canada and Mexico should close the border to everything going north and south, and south and north.

Canadian already can't afford anything. Everything already too expensive! \n \nNow Trump make it even worse! ?

25% tariffs against billions of dollars worth of goods was announced by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau earlier today. Billions Dementia Donald. For the simpletons, that means most everything you buy from Canada will be 25% more expensive, even toilet paper.

This president will bring the U.S. to bankruptcy, like Trump did within everything he touched. As a Canadian, I’m happy to be rid of a petulant neighbour that thinks he’s exceptional.

In America health is not about health it's all about money. Everything in the hospital is unreasonably expensive. Toronto is the most American like canadian city.

We need to stop bringing Somolians over to our country, giving them housing, food, and medical assistance when we Americans can't even get help from our own states because everything is already taken up from all these disgusting, disrespectful refugies!!!

Take back everything they stole from the people that don't see!

Don’t be stupid everything clear …. God created Man and Woman.

Crazy!! All the more reason to lock everything off, and deport!! The strange thing is, that they feel entiteled to it! ????

Shut them all down and send them back , driving the housing crisis, use of food banks driving the cost of everything up destroying the Canadian economy. The schools lied to them, not our problem, we Canadians owe them nothing.

Does he actually believe what he is saying. Seems to go against everything that America stands for. No more land of the free.
