Way to go Canada, USA business will just stop shipping to you and what are you going to do without USA goods and services?

Trump's lifelong love for tariffs is not economically driven but to wield power. In most power plays in the private sector he got away with it and was able to stiff subcontractors and business partners with less resources and less criminal energy than himself. I hope other countries won't budge and give from the start the right answer to this wannabe fascist power drunken criminal.

China has a lower tariff rate because both Trump and Musk have business contracts there and they are making sure they are not fully affected.

Plenty of other coountries to do business with - just a little time to implement - US is already second to China GDP - will be for ever.

3k a month for a apartment? What the hell, I’m in the United States we all know Cali is expensive but it ain’t 3k a month for a one bedroom, I’d be. Good there but only because I own an American trucking business that’s nuts

Trudeau has prorogued parliament so he has no business dealing with anything Canadian. Get out of the way and let the adults talk…..

Business deals with other countries and not us. No holiday to us.

Simple reason it's because lack of ethics, moral and behavior. as a indian I am immigrated to Canada 20 years ago there was no anti immigration sentiment in any part of Canada but Trudeau govt started to give visa, work permit and PR from all parts of world and now In Canada anti immigration sentiment is peak in history it' because we as a indian wherever we go live like in india and do all kind of fraud. In Canada people will pay $20K-$30K dollar to business owner to get fake letter to get work permit or PR and then they do cash some at other business. we pay bribe to get driving license. Our Indian who are the mortgage broker do mortgage fraud. When Canada gave massive visa to indian you never made story but now when visa is getting rejected you came up to show sympathy but do your duty diligently and pick core reason why it's getting rejected.

Europe must do business with Mexico and Canada, and abandon business with the U.S.! Show Trump he cannot push the World around!!

Canada is very dependent on America's doing business. Stop drugs from entering America .

Back in 2016, Trump introduced 25% tariffs on China 301-classification imports that severely damaged my business. For whatever reason, he then exempted the tariffs, but the public still assumed that they were in place. It was a perfect Trump win-win move to make the voters think that he was acting tough, while actually exempting the tariffs for us importers. Unfortunately, Biden got into office and immediately took away the exemptions and screwed us. I mention all of this in order to exemplify how nothing is as it seems when it comes to Trump. Sometimes you have to let this stuff play out before overreacting. I think that Canada made a mistake by overreacting so quickly. This will force Trump's hand to pursue the trade war, even if it was not his actual intention.

Yes, reduce dependence on the US.\nThere are other countries in the world we can do business with.

Canadian here. The tariffs will hurt. And this may just be the beginning of a sprawling trade war, but make no mistake, Canada is not for sale, and Canada, despite its soft spoken nature, is determined to keep going on its own way. We have free trade with the EU and Pacific nations. For any US companies who find themselves caught up in tariffs for their export markets, consider setting up your export shop here, to keep your Canadian customers, and continue to have access to European and Asian markets under free trade agreements that are respected, and operate independently of any decision made by President Trump. Businesses need predictability and stability, and your neighbors to the north can provide that to all of your export markets.

why isn't stock in US car makers, home depot, lowes and thousands of other businesses tanking?

Mate, “inflation” is not a tax. It’s a consequence of escalating prices, perhaps caused by introduction of a tariff on imported goods. Unfortunately, millions of US voters didn’t understand that but still voted for the 34-times convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, serial liar, business fraud, misogynist, racist and draft dodging coward called Trump. Greetings from Australia. Cheers.

I wonder what did Canada do to Trump businesses? Cause that’s the real reason. Maybe his hotels in Canada were closed

Maybe I shouldn't like this but I do. Firstly, Canada has the luxury of not really needing to protect itself, they get to spend 3% what the US does on their military so they can focus on other things, like letting immigrants into the Country to price out the native Canadians and jailing people for misusing pronouns. Also, I want to see the US become slightly more isolationist, I'll happily pay more for US products. A tariff is paid buy the businesses who attempt to pass that cost down to the consumer. We need tariffs high enough that making things in the US makes more sense to these businesses.

Trump is a terrible business man facts period. He's using tariffs against Canada and Mexico. We loose

Thank you president Trump. Not only Africans. But please get read of Hindus. We got millions of iligals. Taking over west states California primary … please deported back to India. They getting fake cdl. Trucking legally in USA not good buying business across USA. Enough

By 2026 NOBODY will be doing business with the USA which by then will be a 4th world country.

Trump is too busy golfing and tossing threats.

Any country that does business with Canada and Mexico cannot do business with the US and will not be protected by the US at all.?

Don't worry about American auto industries an electric car will get a business a billionaire will become trillionaires who care if US public face inflation

As a Canadian...all I can say is that both sides are going to suffer and the long term business relations will suffer

Russia, China and its BRICS partners appreciate Trump and the USA for their hostile attitude towards Canada, Mexico, Latin America and Europe. They will certainly take the opportunity to strengthen their business relationships with all of them. The BRICS are open for business…

Trump has opened door for Canadian businesses to look for businesses somewhere else. Pretty sure Trump wont last in the office if public has to pay high prices on everything

Social media got them easily caught by ICE. Putting all their business on live feed.

Be afraid because the Trump administration means business!

TRUMP STANDING ON BUSINESS!!!!

They literally can’t be deployed. How are they in the right profession? It doesn’t make sense at the taxpayers and VA expense. Defending our country, WAR, has no business in one’s “self-identity”. \n\nWhen they are invariably medically discharged, who pays 80% of their hormones, medical, etc for life? We do.

Possible solution..... Boisterously verbally downshift the agenda..... Fool them into thinking okay back to business normal.... To de-escalate the excitement..... Donald Trump's a lame duck anyway..... You can say anything he wants to they'll still accept him..... What difference does it actually make to him....

Normal business Barack Obama's displayed method.... Speak quietly but do the job necessary.... . All borders are touchy.... It must be done with finesse and diplomacy..... IT'S A REACTIONARY PHENOMENON THAT WE OUGHT TO BE SMART ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND...

I know many people who has multi million dollar business without papers…

They did it at the wrong border, they should’ve done it in southern Kalifornia where all the idiot wealthy libs will welcome them with open arms to compete for a few jobs with poor Americans. I’d bet if these migrants were all actors or musicians or business executives the wealthy would be doing all they can to secure the border.

Where is the military? It’s time to take care of business.

I have not researched the Deportation of African immigrants, so I can not speak on it as much, But I do know what the deportation of Mexican Immigrants will do. It's going to have a ripple effect. Big American businesses will be unable to get cheap labor in various fields, such as construction, janitorial, landscaping, and many other areas of work Mexicans are giving American businesses. These Big American businesses that run America and have gotten accustomed to underpaying their Mexican workers are not going to be happy about it because they are going to lose so much money if they start hiring only American workers and have to pay them higher wages. So They will start raising the prices of everything, and it will crash the economy. Donald Trump will go down as the worst President in the history of America and will create another Great Depression

Africa will close all Usa business,no need usa,will work with Arabs and Brics

They are illegal! If they have papers proving they are legally in America that's ok. Alot of those businesses won't have been paying proper wages either because they are not legal so cheap labour is over folks.Thats a good thing

No sympathy. Eventually things will stabilize in business as for those who are afraid you should be here legally

Looks like Ellis Island just closed for business

Here in California I have met many wonderful Indian nationals; however, many assist and support the concept of illegally immigrating to the US. One woman I know, from Delhi, married one guy then divorced him, and then within a year married and divorced another man. Does anyone care about the trauma and fact this is called grifting, basically criminal fraud for a green card. She was on her thrid target when I had to stop knowing her. There are allot of Indian nationals here involved with many shady businesses, doing crime here is acting as a parasite - something easy to do as people genuinely like Indian people. Also California now has anti caste discrimination laws, the only state in the US, that should tell you allot about their integrity.

What about deporting only the criminals? What about the innocent, the one paying the tax every year the one who owns business and properties what they gonna do with their business what they gonna do with their properties they work so hard what about giving them sometime to sell their property?

Businesses who hired Illegal immigrants should be fined to!!

Nope. Let trump do his thing. Our country over everything. Thankful for a President who stands on business.

Good business for advocates/ lawyers in US

trans have no business in military. Some places military go, will attack them for being trans, there fore putting all troops in harms way.

Uh so what’s about to happen to all of the Mexican strips I’ve noticed alot of mecican trips where they have a whole street of Mexican stores so I wonder what they gonna do to the businesses

I voted for this and I'm very happy with how ICE is handling business

So businesses whose focus was to sell to people who weren't supposed to be in the country are surprised business is slow now that people who are not supposed to be here ran away? Go figure.

CNN is trash they going outta business
