Im so outraged for the half of us who didn't want him for president .

We don't want this either. Half of us did not vote for him. We are heartbroken and angry and fearful for the future. We are so sorry. \nGod help us all.

No its simple, you take as much as you sell. Simple financial mathmatics.\nIm sure the US can sustain not having canadian products.\nHere in the uk we dont want your goods if you dint buy ours.

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

Thank you Canada for standing up to this Bully President who has dropped all of the protection so Russia can just walk all over America and set itself up to allow Putin to do whatever he wants.

You Mr Trudeau love and care for the people of your country,Donald wants to destroy the poor and middle class in America.

It's very simple to understand... no NATO in Ukraine because too close to Moscow. That's all Putin wants. \nAnd Canada doesn't want to understand that... So President \nTrump is going to punish Canada for wanting to continue the war like Biden wanted.

I’m telling you as an American we don’t want this , our uneducated greedy president does . ?

Trump is doing exactly what murderer Putin wants him to do. So he is cutting off his own nose to spite his face. Never in my days have I saw such destruction in our blessed nation. Trump needs to be impeached. He is anything but American.

Are people _FINALLY_ going to see reality? Trump wants as much discourse as possible. His major plan is to declare a reason for Martial Law, to take complete control of the government/country. As I have said this before, for years, all I received in return is to be called a Russian BOT! Well, guess what? It's going to get much, much worse! And, YES, it's the democrats, also.

Really over 50 percent vote for this. It would be funny if It's not so sad in the same time. For now, it will work for the USA, but the boomerang will fly back. Your Partner realize now finally that the US is not trustful anymore. They need a bit of time to prepare but if it's done, America is isolated (ok Russia and North Korea will still like you). The world continue rotating, with or without the USA. But maybe It's what the American wants so it's fine. But Trump's territorial claims are a shame. Regards from Germany.

This idiot could end it just by stopping the flow of fentanyl through his country. Why would he not want to do that? Because he could care less about the american people.That's why.

Hi, American here. I support Ukraine ?? and I support Canada ?? as well... Prime Minister Trudeau's speech makes me want to head up North...

We don’t want his ass either!!!

Trumpwabt wants to be puttin

If you want to know what Trumps up to you'd have to ask Putin.

Dude, our government sucks.Trump is an idiot. Elon Musk should go to Mars and stay there. It is not all of us who want this. It is a very few greedy people in charge.

It's gonna be much worse for americans then us canadians. no one wants to trade with you now. donny better figure out how to grow money on the trees at his mar a lago golf course otherwise you won't have any and americans are going to starve

CNN ,you didn't mention the real real that Trudeau believes the Trump administration has put terrifs is that they want to cripple the Canadian economy to be able to annex Canada as a 51st state!!!

Showing your true colors when u didn't get what u want ?

Well done Justin Trudeau, we're proud of you. You said it with firm voice and with determination. You are one son of the soil, unlike weak and wavering Pollivere and Danielle Smith.\nWe still want you to be our PM.

Trump wants what's good for trump. Not what's good for the country.

Americans dont want this either....we do not understand why NO one in office will help us. TRUMP IS A DICTATOR

Lady, this is gonna hurt the US worse than Canada...we will find new trade partners...NO ONE but Russia wants anything to do with your country now

Why not translating what Trudeau said in french ? I wanted to hear it, but guess i have to listen some journalists explain what i just heard

Prime minister Justin Trudeau seems like he wants all the smoke????

If USA wants war they're gonna get it.

The majority of the American people are with you Canada, we didn't want this either. This doesn't have anything to do with drugs. The problem we have is President Shit-for-Brains doesn't understand that tariffs are a mistake because he's a moron who also appears to be a Russian asset, always doing Russia's will regardless of how it will effect the USA.\n\nTrudeau knows how to be a leader. I wish he were OUR president.

As an American, I stand with you Canada ❤. We did not want this. We should be united with our neighbors and not with dictators. Once the ppl that voted for this guy wake up (if ever) the pendulum will swing. Unfortunately we’re on this horrific rollercoaster ??‍♀️ right now. Truly sorry ?

Trump no Canadian B.S. Americans want results. Call us when you have some!

He wants our Country for all of its natural resources and open land area probably to generate power for his AI plants !

Ohhh y'all Canadian Trudeau want to work with us ..ok then help the USA from having Cartel's from crossing fentanyl n trafficking from your country to our country from the border. You can do that right now then Trump will take off the tariffs on you

Now I don't want to dampen the positive comments being direct to us Canadians which we all appreciate. However, I don't want people to forget that this individual talks about making things affordable for their citizens. There is a reason he has resigned. Don't forget that our country unreasonably fights itself on sooooo many things that make items in Canada so much more expensive than they need to be. I was hopeful our own government would make living more afforable for all Canadians by putting a freeze on things such as the Carbon Tax....guess that wasn't in the cards!? Together I hope that intelligence and common decency prevails.

6:53 is the mark that you want to listen

The USA is going downhill !! Wanted HitlerTrump instead of a Democrat , pay the price !!

As an American I'm rooting for Canada. My job relies on Canadian imports. I don't want to lose my job but I want Canada to not give in to us.

We don't want it either. Our government just doesn’t care what we want.

He’s not polite, he is arrogant, narcissistic and a corrupt little weasel who has done untold damage to Canada. Now he wants to be captain Canada and save us. Cheap political performance.

Trudeau is a joke. While he is pushing his agenda. Fur starters, he fails to mention the trade deficit with the usa. So bottom line while everyone loses, canada loses more. The us can survive a lot easier without canada, while canada will suffer a lot more without the usa.\n\nWhen i bring cheese from the usa to canada, there is a 200% tax on anything above my $20 personal exemption, the save is not the same when bringing dairy to the usa.\n\nIf you want to be treated fairly, treat others fairly.\n\nAfter watching zelensky from Ukraine, Trudeau is pretty stupid if he thinks he will win this one.

Can you adopt New England? We don’t want to be part of the United States under Trump.

We don’t want this either! It’s the idiot that was elected by the dumbasses that reside in the United States. I’m sorry.

I'm American and yes this will affect me but I honestly hope that Canada brings this country and Maga to its knees!!! I want the pain to be so great that's is never forgotten. If there was anyway I could help Canada I would! Let them feel the consequences of their choices.

We don’t want this either.

The difference in comments between CNN viewers & ACTUAL news outlets is incredible. All of the TDS patients gather here because they know CNN will tell them what they want to hear. You’re all deluded & you don’t even know it. Incredible. Have prices increased? Can you provide evidence to show these price increases? Maybe you people should move to a different country. If you like Canada so much they got plenty of space. Trump is the president. Get over it. You people are genuinely pathetic

American government wants Canada to be their Ukraine

Please understand American people don’t want this too.

And the people wanted to oust this great Canadian “leader” pay up.

Trump is a mentally deranged idiot he is not friends with anyone but other dictators cuz that's what he wants to be he has said it and people have heard it yet the dumb people of the United States think oh the orange man in office is great.\nHey Canada you got the room for a family at 7:00 with three dogs and some cats because I will gladly become a Canadian citizen I am ashamed to be an American right now and I do not agree with what Trump is doing and yeah help

Things are getting out of hand. In just over a month the world has gone from being in an uncertain place with multiple wars etc into a very grave and dangerous place. And we all have MAGA and Putin to thank for this. Trump and Putin are in collusion. They want the same things. Putin wants control or not only Ukraine but Europe and Trump wants control of the America’s and Greenland , this is what is happening and we need to wake up before the world as we know it is no more?

Trump just want to steal China's friends and abandon his own friends lol
