I‘m sure there will be other countries that can replace Canada and Mexico imports. It’s an opportunity really. Canada and Mexico just need to stop the fentanyl and illegal immigrants, or are they saying they can’t manage these.

Mexican here i am so proud of my president Claudia shembaun viva mexico y canada

Canada just needs to stop trading with USA, trade with Mexico and China!

Mexico and Canada won't survive trade wars with the US. They'll fold in a matter of months.

This was the correct decision because the US wants bring jobs back to the USA. Jobs in Mexico vs USA trump will choose jobs in the US; Politely subsidized lumber from Canada vs lumber from the USA easy decision; Dairy from Oh' Canada , a short term squeeze. On behalf of all US citizens I would like to thank the people of El Mehico and Oh' Canada for the help in the disentanglement.

Bravo Canada and Mexico. Unite all allies European Union Canada Mexico Panama Greenland.

I stand up for Canada, Mexico, and Greenland (Denmark)!!!!

stop lashing Canada and Mexico with that whip... it's painful ?

Canada and Mexico have rights to defend themselves!

Let's be clear. Mexico and Canada are delusional Trump is going to destroy you. China better quit playing too. This country ain't weak and now that Trump is in office we aren't going to be bullied. It's time for everyone to snap out of the Barack Obama and Joe Biden spell and get back to reality. Trump is not playing. It's over.

USA military will take Canada and Mexico soon

Canada alone can’t compete but if Mexico also places retaliatory tariffs it might be a different story

It’s time for Canada and Mexico and China trade with each other and exclude USA.

This will destroy Canada and Mexico

Very good move with Canada and Mexico. It’s the duty of the leaders of relevant countries to

Canada, Mexico, the UK and EU should negotiate their own free trade agreement.

As an American, I'm with both Canada and Mexico. There is absolutely no reason for these tariffs. Please concentrate on the RED STATES that have caused this mess.

I’m a proud citizen of the USA and a Republican no less. To the people of Mexico and Canada, please kick us to the curb. Our leadership has lost its way and is in desperate need for realignment. For the sake of all in North America, take care of this now, because apparently my fellow citizens cannot.

Mexico / Canada FYI Trump has no idea what he is doing. And the American people with suffer from it. MAGA stabbed themselves in the back and still haven't figured that out yet.

As an American, I didn't vote for this clown. What Trump is doing right now is showing the world that the US\nis getting weaker and is in decline. He is using his bullying politics with Tariffs that are harming his Ally\nin Canada and Mexico. This will backfire. Both Canada and Mexico can join BRICS, and flip the US the finger.\nWhy? BRICS is cheaper and more profitable. The US dollar is worth less now and is declining as we speak.\nThis is a sign of weakness and desperate measures.

Nice job Canada. I hope you stand your ground and stick with this.\nContinue to connect w/ Mexico & I hear other countries are going to work with you & Mexico to keep you guys strong.\nIt’s probably a good thing since you won’t have to deal with the toxins the America puts in all of our products, especially since we now don’t have any regulations to protect the consumers.\nI am cheering for Canada & Mexico from the US. But as soon as I can convince my parents to leave…take us please, unless CA becomes part of Canada or Mexico. ?

Maybe Europe, Canada and Mexico should get closer with China, since USA is soo agresive with the allies…

Canada & Mexico have facilitated the influx of drugs manly from China that have killed 100,000 Americans a year for the last 3 years! How did you think this was going to play out?

The reason trump can get away with it is, Canada, Mexico and China export way more goods to the US than we do to them. They're going to pay a lot more over time. Trump knows he has them by the gonads.

Canada, Mexico and China have taken advantage of the US by sending $Billions more into the US than the US sent to them. Not fair for them to treat the US in this way. The US wants FAIR trade where both sides send the same amount to each other.

Canada and Mexico should trade directly with each other via marine shipping and bypasses the US altogether! Just saying

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.

American here. I support Canada and Mexico boycotting our products. Less demand means lower prices for us. It's a win win for both sides :)

SLAVA CANADA SLAVA MEXICO

Mexico and Canada other should join forces....pacify the bully Americans. \nChina can also push to their own tariffs. \nRussia and China are the winners..

Mexico and canada dont need america,america are done

Dammit my tacos here in San Antonio bought to go up. Mexico and Canada bout to FAFO hahahahaha

For the vast majority of Americans, including Trump who don't know this: \n- 90% of all aluminum used in the USA comes from Canada. \n- 80% of the potash used to grow food on US farms comes from Canada. \n- Steel is made in Canada. - Uranium is exported from Canada. \n- Minerals needed for electronics are exported from Canada. The only alternatives are China and Russia. \n- 60% of all imported oil in the US comes from Canada. \n- Electricity produced in Canada is delivered to the states of New York, Vermont, Maine and over 20 other US states. We’ll soon find out if convicted felon Trump and his supporters need Canada when that electricity gets turned off. If Trump can rip our mutually-negotiated agreements so can Canada. We did not ask for this economic war nor did we start it. Trump did. \n \nIt's also time to super-tax every pound of US coal being exported through Roberts Bank Super-port in Delta, British Columbia, Canada. The American coal exported through Roberts Bank does not even pay a provincial carbon tax like all BC residents pay. Canadians are about to show Trump what happens when you consistently lie and stab your best customer and neighbour in the back. We are not afraid of Trump. Canada is the second-largest country in the world by land area and we have the longest coastline in the world, with over 243,000 kilometers of shoreline. We will continue expanding our trade with Pacific Rim countries, Europe, Mexico and beyond. They all need and want our lumber, minerals, oil and gas, grass fed beef, and the dependable, respectful trading partner that we are.

Think the US will Sanction the leadership Canada and Mexico in retaliation....? Sanction the countries.. threaten to remove them form SWIFT...<< that would be a bit extreme but it is trump at the helm.

Trump has started a war against its allies (Canada, Mexico EU, Denmark). Previously, I thought he had a plan, now It seems like he is just happy with controversial speeches and media headlines, I don't think his actions are going to benefit America.

We give canada and mexico large sums of fanical add. We put a stop to that money next. \nHe is playing chess not checkers. If you think he has not thought if this you really need to think again.

Putting tariffs on other countries triggers those countries to also impose tariffs on the US and likely trade with other countries and leave US alone with its goods. Not too good. Canada, Mexico, and China putting tariffs on US will slow US economy big time, like it or not.

China.. canada and mexico can start an economic pact... and f trump back.. ?

Trudeau has been on his farewell tour while he still has access to the treasury rather than dealing with this.\nBut he has shown a tendency to run away from problems rather than tackling them so this is par for the course.\n\nHe is a lame duck, who will be replaced by an equally weak (and unelected !) 'leader' on March 9th, then whether or not the government falls depends on yet another weak leader, this time of one of the opposition parties.\n\nAs Canada and Mexico diversify their trade networks to make up for this, the US will be pushed into isolation. Here in Canada, the world is hungry for our energy and willing to pay full value, not the $14/bbl discount the US currently enjoys.\n\nHope it was worth it.

US-Canada Trade Balance\nThe US has a trade deficit with Canada. In 2024, the US imported $377.24 billion worth of goods from Canada, while exporting $322.24 billion worth of goods. This resulted in a trade deficit of $54.99 billion.\n\nUS-Mexico Trade Balance\nSimilarly, the US also has a trade deficit with Mexico. In 2024, the US imported $412.34 billion worth of goods from Mexico, while exporting $346.78 billion worth of goods. This resulted in a trade deficit of $65.56 billion.\n\nExpect those figures to increase by about 25% in the next year or so.

We must value friendship and good relationships between America, Canada, and Mexico.

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

About 52% of Americans including myself would support Canada and Mexico putting 25% tariffs on US goods. I wish Canada would also put a 50% export tariff on oil too.

Canada should not not back they should have let Mexico to first. This will send Canada in a depressions!! The Canadian dollar is to week against U.S. I think Canada is screwed, they should have chosen I stronger leader!! I think some of the Provenance will become part of American.

Canada and Mexico have no commitment to reducing Illegal immigration,fentanyl smuggling, and human trafficking. They are corrupt as China and Russia.

yea I think the people of Mexico are going to hurt the most then Canada mexico has a 40% export GDP and Canada has a 30% export GDP USA not so much because the GDP of USA is only 10% USA wont really blink tbh going to be interesting what happens.

??Canada and Mexico are so dumb

Canada and Mexico join BRICS ?

WoW talk about biased, we have specific reasons for these tariffs, Trudeau is irrelevant and the Mexican presidents have always had their strings pulled by the cartel. Its why the U.S. is pushing these tariffs. Mexico needs to cooperate with the U.S.. Canada will do so once the new PM is in. Its already Check Mate. These retaliatory moves by Canada and Mexico are just for show. They have no real pull. Period.

Mexico and Canada should employ a total trade embargo.
