If you voted for Trump, you are directly responsible for this. Kamala would’ve at least respected the constitution, and relationships with allies. Trump is a danger to global peace and stability, he has only been in office for 2 months has been tearing up everything you stand for day by day. My sympathies go to the US citizens that didn’t want trump but are now losing their global standing because of him. If he continues as he has done so far, I expect escalation and a war that nobody wants.

Trump wants kanyay west in charge of morals....plans to pardon Charles manson....

This is all convicted criminal Trump’s fault! Most Americans are against these tariffs and want Trump and Musk out of our government!

I'm irritated. Re Trudeau's speech this morning, I want to comment on it. I want to say that I'm not a Trudeau fan, but his response to Trump this morning was excellent and I'm impressed. However... EVERY damn CBC YouTube page has comments turned off. WTF?

The Mystery of what it’s all about was revealed the first week of the trump government!.. he wants Canada and Greenland as states. So he’s trying to weaken Canada and Europe from defending those territories.\nHis left hand is distracting u with tariffs and Putin, his right hand is advertising to ‘liberate’ Canada and Greenland!\nTrump has nothing to lose, he is literally beyond the average life expectancy of an American right now. He is trying to go for his vision of bigger empires

As an American, I also stand with Canada, Europe, and Ukraine. I don't want this either and I apologize. Trump, the convicted felon, rapist, pathological lier and conman is a shameful stain on our country.

Trump needs to look at his own country’s fentanyl problem because America wouldn’t be having a fentanyl problem if America didn’t have the demand for the drug!!\nGood luck Trump…Hope you figure it out because America is the one that is demanding the drug and if Americans want it they usually find a way to get it…?..?

As an American born Ukrainian, we stand with Canada, who continues. Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and JD Vance are very EVIL and VILE human beings. THESE 3 CRIMINALS ARE Taking the USA INTO MANY DIFFICULT SITUATIONS. Getting back in to being buddy buddy again with THE WORLDS BIGGEST CRIMINAL AND DICTATOR PUTIN, IS GOING TO BE A BIG ISSUE for Americans. Many have innocent children and civilians have been MURDERED in Ukraine by Putin. Even as we tried several times to talk peace though Putin has proven that he wants NOTHING TO DO WITH A CEASEFIRE AND PEACE!!! TRUMP SHOULD BE IN PRISON LIKE THE CRIMINAL THAT HE IS!!!!

Is it really that hard to understand that we wanted this so we voted for trump?? You don't understand, we are ready to sacrifice ourselves for President Trump and his mission to Make America Great Again.????? #PROJECT2025

You Americans really need to get over yourselves. That was not harsh language, that was very measured and direct. Trump berated Canada with nasty language. If you want hash language, then we would tell you to F off and go and play with you puppet master, Putin.

I really wonder if the Russian people still know whom to hate, as doe decades it was the bad bad west. No Trump want to be loved by daddy Putin and is his slave.

I'm not American. I grew up hearing lots of hate bout USA cuz the US doesn't exactly have a good rep in foreign policies - always bullying other nations, starting wars for oil etc. but I've always preferred USA not just for the world order it brings, it allows different voices, criticism & scolding towards its leaders compared to China, Russia & North Korea. \n\nin the US, you can talk bad bout politicians in power, or probably make movies bout these kind of things like US invading other countries for oil, or testing out some cruel AI military robots on humans (movie name: Monsters of Man), & you won't be persecuted. but after looking at a bunch of executive orders Trump has signed, the way he (& JD Vance) treated Zelenski & Canada, I don't know if I still feel the same bout USA anymore.\n\nif USA doesn't wanna continue spending on Ukraine, perhaps USA shouldn't have sweet talked Ukraine into denuclearization thru the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. that's what you get for mendling with other countries' affairs. by stopping US aid & wanting a new mineral deal, Trump's refusing to follow the Memorandum (I added this sentence thru edit as I can't reply to the comment below).\n\nunderstandably, US & UK don't need to deploy troops in Ukraine as the security assurance in the memorandum wasn't clearly defined, but it also didn't mention that Ukraine should pay the US back financially, nor any mineral concessions. \n\nTrump always wanting a purely 1 sided deal will only isolate USA from more allies.

Trump's actions are not those of an ally. He's a terrorist that wants to annex Canada like Putin did with Ukraine.

Trudeau is a leader. Trump is a follower of Putin. I'm so sorry, Canada. This isn't what most Americans want. Trump is a shame, and he won't last.

While I am going to financially suffer from this, I want to see our country start new deals with Europe and Asia. Until tRump is gone and ALL of his minions have left office, I don't want to see any deals with the US. \nWe knew Trump wanted to destroy Canada financially. This was NOT about fentynal.\nWe have enough wood, enough oil, and enough resources to establish good relationships around the world. And sustain fellow Canadians.

TRUMP WANTS TO DESTROY America

Trump and Putin both want and need Canada for the simple reason of the Arctic melts. Ships can now travel that pass. Trump is known, and I'm surprised the media doesn't bring it up, to have financial ties to Russia as an American citizen even well before 2016. What kind of blackmail from Russia would make Trump totally sell out his country.

We love you ?? ?, my apologies from us American people, we dont want trump and his clowns in office. God biess you all with love and hugs from your American people. We love you Justin. ???

That is a rouse from trump , had nothing to do with fentanyl, trump wants Canada’s resources for his maga

@robertedward7023 \n\nServing the country doesn’t mean that you’re right. President Trump was not bullying Zelensky but Zelensky was disrespectful to our President. “You have nice oceans so you don’t feel it now but in the future you will feel it “ is what Zelenskyy stated. How can you speak against your President who has done nothing but look out for Americans to defend someone who would be so disrespectful to our country. Zelensky also stated that Americans will bleed for his country. Why would anyone defend this blatant hatred. President Trump has tried to give Zelensky what he needs not what he wants. All of these countries gather together to rally against POTUS because he won’t allow them to financially enslave Americans and use America as a personal piggy bank. Every single American who loves this country should have President Trumps back.

Trump wanted fair trade. RECIPROCAL and Canada who has had a free ride for decades cried like a spoiled ungrateful baby

What has Canada and European countries done to actually try and end the death and destruction from this war? Europe buys energy from Russia, and Canada is only giving 650 million dollars in weapons over three years, while America has supplied hundreds of billions of dollars in aid and military equipment. Zelensky goes around the world dressed in a military outfit with no desire to stop the slaughter of humans on both sides. There have been thousands of wars where, eventually, one side has to accept the reality that they can not win, Zelensky is unwilling to see this. President Trump was elected because we want his AMERICA FIRST AGENDA, and with us saddled with 36 TRILLION dollars of debt, this war needs to stop.

It's not trump fault is the people who vote for him jack in other words this is what the people of usa wants.

Who owns the majority of the stock market? Who cares. More than half of us don't own stocks. As for Canada, Trump is doing what he thinks is best for Americans not Canada. Not any talk here on why Trump did this and no one here seems to want to know. Let the talking heads that own tons of stocks through Black Rock tell you all you need to stay in the dark.

It’s almost like Trump is being influenced by something or someone who wants to destroy the west.

Trump wants America to die from what it looks like! He's alienating us from our allies!

As an American, i always want to support my country, but when they are attacking an ally and friend for absolutely no reason, i have no choice but to hope that Canada stands strong against Trumps bullying.

The trade war has begun now he wants to discuss how we’re going to adapt to the economic nightmare how we can survive this and how we can defeat Trump’s bullshit

We want Trump to stop. He is turning America into a Dictator. Tired of his gangster ways. We are so so sorry Canada.

All we want is fairness and president Trump is for America.

Americans want Trump exiled or in prison where he should have gone 8 years ago

I understand now why Trump got angry with Zelenskyy. He didn't want Zelenskyy to start WW3. That was Trumps idea and job

I don’t understand exactly what Trump wants from Canada? What type of deal is he looking for?

Curious, what is a better solution to tariffs already imposed by Canada on the US? It's amazing that Canada's solution is to argue there is no justification...I'd ask Trudeau, what does Trump want? Is is unreasonable or not...if it is unreasonable, tell us why....because one thing about Trump, he is usually pretty darn clear about what he wants.

Canada and Mexico are not responsible for the people in the US who chose to use drugs. In fact, it's the United States job to keep illegal drugs and immigrants out of the US and they are doing a poor job of it and need someone else to blame. Mexico could retaliate in a way that could flood the US with illegal drugs and immigrants and refuse to repatriate its citizens back into Mexico. The rest of Central and South America could do the same in support of Mexico. They need to get Trump out of office before he ruins America.\nI remember the press conference with the USA (Trump), Canada and Mexico when signing the new trade agreement during Trump last time in office. Trump proudly stated that this is the greatest agreement in the history of the United States. Last week he wanted to know who in the US agreed to the terrible trade agreement. He is losing his mind and cognitive function is deteriorating at a rapid rate. Re-negotiating contracts after the work is complete is how Trump ran his businesses. He has bankrupted many small businesses by not paying them knowing that they do not have the money to go to court. He is only rich because of daddy's money otherwise he would have never survived his many bankruptcies. Thats why no one will loan him money. I can't wait until he screws over the government of Saudi Arabia with one of his shady business deals. Anyone remember what happened to Khashoggi for just authoring a bad article on Saudi's Leaders. What do you think will happen to Trump for monetarily screwing them over?

Another gang is going to attack the Capitol, then I want to see if Trump forgives them like he did with the other criminals who beat and killed police officers, and this administration is a joke, I've never seen an aide to the president of America with a chainsaw in his hand. Salute Canada and the Americans who are with democracy

Inflation is to the roof, Make food and housing affordable, please people just help impeach him, he is golfing while the american people are struggling everyday.... He is just trying to pass stupid laws that keep getting blocked by courts, Come on Trump supporters try helping fix it by calling your local office and impeach him, I bet anyone else is better than Trump, we know the country needs changes but we are still the biggest economy of the world the richest country, Why do we have to feel like is normal not to have affordable food and housing?? The basics of life... All the immigrants are gone, They even left by their own will, and Some Americans left to other countries, Mexico, Europe, Asia..... What do you guys want?? Having an empty country once was the biggest economy of the world?? Is just crazy even a blind person can see he is destroying the whole country..... He is not even a good business person we all know he didn't payed taxes, he went bankrupt so many times he knows how to scam people, Saying the USA government doesn't work because he feels like it, Just travel people so you can see the difference between usa government and other governments around the world........

Nothing Trump does makes sense. He’s an utter embarrassment. He’s making our country look like a backwards, oppressive, “pile of garbage”. If any MAGA bothered to research is life back to the 70’s and 80’s they’d find Trump was NEVER good at business. He was good at running them into the ground. He hasn’t a republican cell in his body. He doesn’t care which party or what ideology anyone is, so long as they’re naive and ignorant enough to buy his lies and bullshit. It’s just all about Trump. Everything he’s doing is contrary to making America great. Ironic that there are many so-called Christians who support him, when he fits the biblical description of the Antichrist a bit too well. It’ll take decades to restore America’s standing in the world, because that narcissistic, bloated, power-hungry, piece of shit wants to keep attention centered on him. He’s doing all he can to keep us stupid, and brainwashed, because anyone who’s intelligent, and has any level of critical thinking poses a threat. When will the orange Kool aid wear off?…and btw, I’m not a liberal. I’m not a democrat. I’m rational.

Trump wants to bankrupt businesses so that he or his people can buy them.

You never talk about 200,000 deficit Trudeau, if you want American people understand about you, US has been feeding Canadian forever Trudeau, and you also called trump dumb and In this case to be fair I don't think you are smarter then trump at all

Trump wants to hurt everyone!

That's right ! Dope comes from the dopes in usa to Canada. Not orher way around. Trump just wants to control it. Like past usa governments who brought in coke and smack to control ethnic minorities it did not work. Those ethnicities had friends in other cultures. Ie( Oliver north, Iran contra affair.

Trudeau dumped on his people during Covid. He acted as a dictator, freezing bank accounts, ect.\nZelensky acted a fool in the oval office. The deal was agreed upon, and Zelensky backed out like a flippant child. \nBTW, JUSTIN, if you want to be serious and address the president of America, try saying PRESIDENT TRUMP.

We TRUE American patriots don’t want the diaper dons BS either, Mr.Trudeau ?\n\nThis will NOT end well for the Trump administration and his lackeys. COUNT ON IT

Trump has a deal done with Putin,all the raw materials he wants,and the kgb and mossad know all about the little visits to the island,that is what it was there for

With these tariffs and lack of diplomacy with Ukraine we will probably see US Companies start moving to Canada, as well as foreign partners of US switching to Canada. Trump is too chaotic and disruptive, which is awful for any company wanting to grow in the US.

Trump wants to destroy USA, he is the real enemy from within ???

Please know PM Trudeau, there are a great many of us in the US who don't want this either and want to remain friends with our neighbors to the north. Shame on Trump and his broligarchy!

My father was 24 year Navy. I'm glad he passed because this would kill him. He didn't like Trump in the 80s. America doesn't want this!!!We stand with Ukraine,Canada and Mexico.

Trump is full of shit!!! This has nothing to do with drugs etc- he wants Canada’s resources, the artic and our land!!! Drugs, guns and criminals have been coming into Canada from the US for years. He must think people are absolutely stupid. FUCK OFF trump - Done with being polite- hashtag - fuck off trump
