I think if Trump fires more federal workers and lower taxes on American companies, everything will even out for the poor and lower middle class.\nAlso He's allowing immigrants that can pay there way into America the opportunity to do so. I'm sure they will settle in all the middle and upper middle class neighborhoods that the Demoncrap leaders live in, to give them a taste of what it's like to be saturated with immigrants.

Donald Trump is a buffoon and makes it embarrassing to claim one's self, an American.

As American people, we want to still be allies and work with you too. The Trump/musk/Putin governments needs to stop their current chaotic districts activities. The Trump government does not speak for me or my fellow Americans. They only speak for themselves. They are greedy bastards!!!!

A message to Trudeau. Put an export tax on the Oil and Electricity sold to the United States. Open up new European Markets for Oil and Natural Gas product and sell directly to Europe and Japanese markets. China needs oil, there is plenty of market around the world for our products. The Tariff's imposed by Trump is only going to make product to the US more expensive for their own citizens, and with Tariff's on all American imports, if they can't make it, or they don't have the raw materials to make it themselves, they will have to pay more. It is not necessary to impose Tariff's on USA Products to penalize Canadians, but Canadians will find new markets to replace the US, and we won't even notice it happened. We have alternatives. The southern islands are great vacation locations, and with the weather disasters they have suffered over the past few years, they could use the tourist support to help rebuild, and, their people are friendly and don't carry guns.

I keep seeing americans complaining about Trump, where are all the people that voted for him? It must be more than half of american population tho no? Weird

only if dumb trump can speak intelligently like this true leader from Canada. trump speak at grade school level. I am American and very embarrassed for our government.

It makes perfect sense because Donald Trump is a Nazi and a Nazi supporter that will turn the US into an axis power. As if our reputation wasn't bad enough now America will be the most hated country in the world and it's all thanks to Republicans and Maga Republicans who should now ALL consider themselves traitors to the flag. If you support Donald Trump you are a coward, a xenophobic sycophant, a bigot, a white supremacist, and as i stated earlier, a traitor. Treason is punished by death in some lands. The American people won't allow this dictator for long. Even if it causes a Civil War within our own country. Trump will not last a full 4 years in the Nazi House. The people will end up getting tired of it, and then Maga will know what it's like to fear for their lives. Its going to unfold terribly for our country and I hope all of our allies will forgive us after the Trump Nazi Regime is removed.

Canadian here, my grandfather died fighting the Nazi's during WW2 in the Raid on Dieppe and is buried in France. Trump (The Evil One) and Musk are Nazi's. Remember when they were campaigning on the water and the last few boats in the parade were flying Nazi flags???? I will never let that Hitler wannabe take my precious country. Everything he touches turns into worm vomit. I will pray for my American friends and family: God please remove this maniac from the White House. Love, Nancy

American from Wisconsin. Standing in support of Canada. This country is going down the tubes fast! I hope that all Americans will take time to listen to your speech before listening to the BS that we will get from Trump tonight.......

Trump you sleazy scum receptacle, now inflation is going to make things less affordable and then your going to blame it on Biden and on us for not working hard enough. Is this what you meant when you promised lowering prices? You better have a good apology to the American people

I don’t stand with anyone except the UNITED STATES Of AMERICA! But I want to make something very clear. We just went through 4 years of absolute hell with The Biden administration!! No way around it. And the democrats will do anything to make trump look bad no matter if it hurts our country or not. They simply hate the fact that the checks and the cross dressing and what ever nasty crap they spent our money on . They won’t talk about that! But what I want to know is why we aren’t saying ok Canada we spend trillions militarily protecting you. And the won’t even come up to the 2% on defense they lied about participating in. Why should we pay for everything then they want to tax us?? Should America not get something for protection of a country?? Why do we need to pay there bills? Why should we pay for a war we’re not in? Ukrainian war Americans pay?? No! Canada dosent defend themselves Americans pay?? Then when we tax them like they tax us they want to slap a gift horse in the mouth??

Weirdo trump is an idiot. ??‍♂️ \nAmerica is exposed with the Energy part. Millions of Americans are exposed because of trump. #weirdotrumpsucks ??

Why this is happening? I think this is the question of americans too? So sad? hopefully pres trump will change this decision

We Real Americans stand with you Canada and we will remove trump as soon as we can.

Several generation American here. I do not want this. I stand with Canada! Not Russia, not Trump, not the DC freak show. Thank you Mr Trudeau

Donald Trump wants to be like Putin. Americans, What have you done?

Trump is the great shame of America. As an American citizen I stand with Canada

Trump demands loyalty, but he never is willing to give it. Canada is right to resist his ridiculous tariffs. Stay strong, Canada! Sane, decent Americans are with you!

Trump is a bully. How does this Make America Great Again? As Americans, we are the ones suffering.

It's not the Anericans doing this, it's Trump & his cowardly flunkie Republican stooges. Many of us Americans despise Trump!

wow al the delusional people on here amazing .Trump wants the tariffs to pay so americans dont have to pay taxes thats smart we should do the same and has everyone forgot that tirdeau doesnt like free speech .he is on the epstein list and his sister is tied to the picktin farm .and the war on drugs is a joke .it is worse than ever. proof is in the pudding people .trudeau is the enemy just like biden and all those like him wake up canadians .tirdeau funds hamas they are terrorists and war mongers .how terrible Trump wants world peace so does anyone with half a brain.im with trump. he is doing what many should have long ago .we need Trump here too

I am American and I am SO happy Canada will not bow down to our weak, gutless, capitulating dwarf of a man, Trump. Good for Canada!!

If he is selling himself to Americans and abusing President Trump. Why does he not accept the unification with the United States and become its 51st state? Then, he can try his luck to become President of the United States. That's good for the world as well, and good for Canadian people as well.

As an American the citizens don't really have a choice on what trump decides to do. If you want to match his 25% tariffs I think you should. We qlso don't want to help putin hurt others. We want to work with Canada our allies. I don't personally know anyone that doesn't agree with this but that doesnt meant they do not exost.

### **Americans, Wake Up Before It’s Too Late!** \n \nDo you realize what’s happening? **Donald Trump is pushing the world toward World War III.** This is not a conspiracy, this is not speculation—this is reality. A man who **wears two diapers and has little time left to live** doesn’t care what happens after he’s gone. He has no vision for the future, because in his mind, **there is no future.** \n \nThis is just the beginning. **If you think things are bad now, imagine what’s coming next.** Trump and his billionaire allies, including **Elon Musk**, are playing a dangerous game, one that could **end civilization as we know it.** These are not leaders—they are reckless, power-hungry individuals with no regard for the world that you and your children will inherit. \n \n? **Trump must be impeached before he takes us all down with him!** \n? **Musk must be held accountable before his reckless ambitions destroy what’s left of our planet!** \n \nThis is not about politics. This is about survival. **The future of humanity depends on our ability to stop them now!**

The significance that PM Trudeau addressed him as Donald go over so many heads. It is greatly appreciated that the PM also acknowledged that Americans will be hurt by this as well, especially those of us who didn’t vote for Trump.

This is how America become Great Again? or the start of American Destruction? Trump or Trap? Im from the ??many here regrets for voting Duterte im sure you too….Peace People❤❤❤

As an American I am so embarrassed for what President Trump is doing. He is HURTING all our relationships with our allies. I'm beginning to think electing President Trump will be in history as the biggest mistake citizens made.

One thing Mr. Trudeau got wrong is that Trump is a smart man. Ohhhhh no he is not. He's just indebted to Putin and we Americans get to take the shitty ride down hell road.

Trump missed the semesters when they covered Econ I & II. He also does not appreciate friendship and does not know how to treat people. I am devastated that my fellow Americans actually voted for him again.

I am so sad that anti-americanism is going to soar because of Trump’s outrageous behaviour on all fronts. Farewell to the international order that was before Trump and has passed away through these last six weeks.

As an American, who didnt vote for Trump, I am proud of Canada standing up. We did this to ourselves.

I’m American and I believe In Equal Tariffs … You charge 20 we should charge 20 but if you want to go higher I feel sure PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP Will play your game to ..

So impressed with Trudeau and Canada as a whole. This should make any self respecting American citizen feel embarrassed to compare their apology for a president to this man and his team. P.S. Note to Trudeau - Trump is NOT a very smart guy, don't do what the rest of the world is trying to do, flatter this susceptible idiot hoping to get him on side, it won't, it just makes him certain that he is so special and clever and makes his behaviour 100% worse.

Trump isn't American anymore...he is a traitor for Russia.

3rd generation American here, I too stand with Canada, the UK, Mexico and Europe, not with Russia, China or the communist worshiping president that I did NOT vote for. This is what happens when people are too chicken to vote for a female President who's already been Vice President and has more integrity in the tip of her pinky than trump & musk have combined. trump and his cabinet should be removed for treasonous acts, tried , and jailed. They've weakened the security of our country.

Trudeau Gov.destroyed Canada all aspect of existing country.\nTrudeau treat Canadian citizens as conquered people. Trudeau acted the same way with USA to involved in election against Trump.\nCanadian paíd for enviroment to kill own economy to grow..\nNow ,For Canadian citizens is better to be state of USA not too much tax.more freedom,not discrimination the white Christian man. It is wrong to create hate against American what next - contempt latter degenaration.\nTrudeau want to made damage to USA. The best,after stop deliver hydro ,energía is develop produce,fantynol will be big problem\nI prefere Alberta Primer Schmit to find solution in talking deal.\nOther way is join to USA for better life for Canadian people, and better west global possibility against China\n.

Just curious, currently (before Trump's Tariffs) how much TARIFFS does Canada pay for American goods and how much TARRIFS does America pay for Canadian goods? If Trump is increasing TARIFFS more than Canada, then that's sad.

Musk and his team of nazi’s are terrorizing Americans while Trump is terrorizing America’s allies. The only thing that makes sense is that Putin is demanding payback for putting Trump in the White House. An immediate investigation is needed into Trump’s relationship with Putin.

Why can’t we have a real leader like this! Instead we have a belligerent egomaniac Russian asset as president. He shouldn’t have even had 10% of the vote. Y’al knew better but didn’t vote better because of many superficial reasons, among them, sexism and racism. Now all of us Americans are losing. I’d love to see the day when we as Americans can come together as ONE & stand up against people like Trump that are harming all Americans. United we stand. Divided, ALL of us fall. Some of y’al thought it wouldn’t impact you even if his policies impacted others (and not you) so you didn’t care and voted for public enemy #1 despite all the warnings given. Now here we are. I really truly hope that America has a whole will look at ourselves in the mirror at what we’ve allowed to be, and change our ways by coming together as one country that wants to see Americans do well and be good and be able to take care of their families, regardless of race or sex, or gender, immigration status or any of the superficial barriers.

It’s Trump !!! We the (most) Americans don’t agree with what he’s doing either ☹️.

As an American, I can appreciate Canada's response to the felon president. We want Trump, Miller, MAGA politicians and Elon out. They are bullies and Putin's puppets.

Trump is American, not Canadian, his job is to make America better, not Canada. No more free rides Canada. Trump is fixing it.

So many Americans are against what Trump is doing!

This is not about tariffs - this is about attacking your allies all over the world snd making them an us weaker and siding with Putin. Tearing down all the American institutions and siding with Putin. If it’s not clear by now, the horrible fact is: Trump is a Russian agent and asset, pure and simple. That is all.

Trump stated during his campaign that this was coming. This is on the American voters. You wanted this, now you've got it. Not sure how you thought that higher prices for everything would be a win for you, but here you go...

Congratulations to Trump. He has sought out to apparently “put America first”. But all it appears he is accomplishing is galvanising the rest of the free world against the United States. My sincerest apologies to the American people you have been truly led astray

Canadian here(Quebec) I feel sad for all the Whiskey industries in Kentucky, those workers didn't deserved the counter-effects of the tarifs. Everything can be done with respect & diplomacy, but it's not the road President Trump took. Fellow Americans, I am very sorry about that, rest assured that us here, we make the difference between your President & all of you.

The smart Americans are with you Canada. F... Trump! ?

t this moment the only people who can stop that are the Americans. Stop Trump. The world around will do for you what ever is possible.
