Trump will do what he has always done. Screw everyone over while he makes off with the money and throws everyone else under the bus. In this case, the entirety of America will be the ones under that bus. Trump will once again get away completely unpunished for his actions. \nTrump and musk both belong in prison.

Why is this guy trying to make people afraid? Sounds like he is the one who is worried. Id rather have Chip production here in the US than his assurance.

And Mexico's President is about to release her own retaliative measures. Let's brace ourselves Americans, we the ones that didn't vote for this convicted felon. At least the dumb MAGAets will pay the high prices too.

One minute yall call Trudeau a buffon and next yall call him a great leader! All yall people on here are fake!! Wishy washy supporters!

No one is asking, what are the tariffs for... I obviously you see all of these people in the comments just walking and basing their judgment off of what they are seeing off of CNN etc. do your own research people, this man is bananas... I would assume most people in Canada are not very happy with this man crippling their country

..''Let me be Crysral clear'' !! Good one!!

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

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.

It is high time that you all start acknowledging who is the one to help .

Trudeau reminds me of a third grader that just had his lunch money taken by one of the bullies in class. He then goes and tells his mommy he is going to kick the bullies a$$ as soon as a cow flys over the moon!

Good on you prime minister Trudeau! This is real diplomacy and wisdom. Your experience will prevail and the world will see who is the king. Because right now one king is completely naked! Bravo!?❤️????

This weak up call to every one that dont trust to much to the america ..they will help you at first and then they will ask for return ..

I don't like Trudeu since he's a woke moron, but here's right on this one.\nTrump is a bigger moron.

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

Just one correction: trump is not a smart guy.

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

Please dont apologize to the Americans for this. We should be the ones to apologize for trump. He is an embarrassment and a foolish bully. Thank you for all your help in the past. Hopefully this resolves itself in the future.

A man, being A man=you are a man❤ i finally see one in this life time.a King

One thing Trudeau can actually do that will help is reducing a lot of restrictive business regulation.

Hi from Canada... When you look at a long line of MAGA't Zombie voters and you see them all smiling and collectively they make one complete set of teeth and then you allow them to vote in their golden pig and make him president, this is what you get! I realise that everyone that is good and decent in the USA bent over backwards not to look down or insult MAGA't types for fear of further alienating them, all it has done is backfired both upon good and decent Americans but upon the cult of Orange Jesus as well. So now we're left with this dystopian mess. Long past time to take the gloves off and get into the fight. Pretend you're all hockey players playing the Russians... leave it ALL on the ice!!!

Prime Minister Trudeau was wrong about one thing. That was saying Trump is a smart guy.

The American people reject your one sided friendship. No more taking advantage of America. It’s time to pay us back for every dollar you have earned from us. Period

Trudeau makes no sense. Is he not the one acting like a dictator? Some people don't forget what you did Mr. Trudeau.

Canadians and Americans have fought side by side in two world wars, Korea, Afganistan and elsewhere in the world. One President can not be allowed to ruin the trade and relations between such great nations.

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.

Hey Canadians, on behalf of the good people in America... I apologize for the ignorance and stupidity of one EMBARRASSING excuse of a leader that is not only sticking it to Americans in every way you can think ... I refuse to call him a president because he is NOT... He is a convicted felon, convicted on 34 felonies. He is a fraudster, a cheater, a LIAR, a thief, and a THUG! He is not a legal president because he cheated to get elected in the first place because he cheated in 2016 by having his Russian friends interfer in our election by smearing, and launching the wikileaks ĺeak that She had emails from her secratary of state days on an unsecured computer at the DNC Hillary Clinton, merely weeks ahead of the 2016 election.\nTrump also incited a seditious insurection in 2020 after losing that election failing his attempted coup to sieze power in an election he LOST! Donald Trump and many of the GOP that ran for thier lives on Jan. 6th 2021 now refer to the insyrection as a peacful gathering of non violent protesters... Trump calls it the best day ever!!! Think about that for a minute! The very first order of business Trump did after his inauguration was to pardon 1500 crimina convicts that either plead guilty or were found guilty of charges like sedition. And insurectionists. Many of them for violent crimes like battery on a police officer. And other charges loke trespassing on a federal building, and theft charges for stealing laptops and all sorts of things.\nDonald Trumps first act was to free all of them with a wave of a pen... he freed police bashers!!! And scum bags like Elmer Rhoads, and leader of the proud boys Enrique Tarrio... and all tge violent punks that tried to overturn a free and fair election!!! I is disgusting! HE a k so pardoned the biggest drug dealer in America that catered to criminals and murderers, the owner and inventer of the silk roads dark web site.\nTrump is a Russian asset, make no mistake about it. And fir the last 40 days or so he set about to burning down all American institutions with the help of his Billionaire campaign donors that agreed to get him elected for MORE MONEY!!! Trump is turningvon our trusted allies all friends, and siding with countries like Russua, North Korea, Iran, Turkey, and other countries that are under the control of string men autocrats, and dictators! He publicly called our friend and ally Vlidomir Zelenskyy a dictator! While at the same time calling Vladimir Putin a genius, and a really smart guy that wants peace he says!\nVladimir Putin is the worlds most cold blooded mass murderer of our lifetime and he is a war criminal that kills mostly civilians, women and children deliberatly!!! He poisons his political opponents and business partners with plutonium and other ways like having them thrown out a high ruse window, or shit from the sky in an airplane!!!\nDonald Trump is a maniac that Ameruca needs to desperately get rid of before he finishes the job of burning down all our institutions and burning our constitution and democracy in order to turn Ameruca into an autocracy...\nSo, Canadians.... we Americans are deeply embarrassed and we apologize for the reckless behavior of one man!! One ignorant man... Donald Trump. There has never been a more shameful and embarrassing time to be an American! Eff Trump!!!

Oh dear. There was one line that has me more worried than any of them. “No matter what it costs we the federal government will be there for you.” Every time the government prints money and distributes it they decrease the value of our dollar. That’s how inflation works. Government doesn’t have any money. It takes the money from citizens and Re-distributes it. Please don’t help us by increasing government spending.

Friendship is built on equality not everything favouring one side. Americans need to accept many countries are not America's friends.

Trudeau, my brother, My words cannot begin to express to you or your people just how genuinely sorry I am for my country's utterly repulsive and inexcusable behavior throughout the last month and a half and for the downright cruel, hostile treatment you've suffered at the hands of the most incompetent, greedy, poorly educated, narcissistic, racist, sexist, xenophobic buffoon to ever preside over the United States. Not only is Donald Trump an overly privileged, pathetic, whiney crybaby who literally folds his arms, stomps his feet, and launches an all out temper tantrum whenever he doesn't get his way or when someone else has the TV remote, he is a dangerously delusional, high stakes risk taker who wouldn't think twice about using his own mother or child as a human body shield if he thought his life were in danger. There is absolutely no value, principle, moral or ethic he wouldn't betray without hesitation if he suspects there is anything at all to be gained - you know, the type of guy who would poison the entire neighborhood in order to hoard all the complimentary tampons and lip gloss samples from his neighbors' mail boxes just to ensure that he got first dibs on everything before anyone else. Incidentally, he is also the same type of guy who pockets all the flavored mini coffee creamers from the gas station and all the paper bed sheets and Qtips from the doctor's office. I wouldn't put it past him to steal the waitresses' tips off tabletops on his way out the door upon leaving McDonald's. In fact, I would bet everything that he steals the donation jars for Jerry's Kids at the local supermarket. I mean, its already a given that he is likely the guy who filed a lawsuit a few summers back against a sweet, innocent littls FOUR year old boy for having a lemonade stand on property not zoned for commercial use. If it wasn't Trump then I'm sure it's only because he was too busy ordering the National Guard to power hose and pepper spray the 30 or so elderly nuns who had been distributing bottled water to folks demonstrating in support of Black Lives Matter on the hottest day of the year. Satisfied in his victorious battle against the nuns - 9 of whom had been hospitalized for critical injuries including the 92 year old Mother Superior who suffered massive brain bleed, swelling and concussion due to the excessive force of the power hose and an 87 year old nun who lost permanent sight in one eye due to the pepper spray - Trump had the nerve to pose for a publicity shot in front of the church while holding a Bible - UPSIDE DOWN - and scrunching and contorting his face into that hideous trademark scowl he does ever so naturally. Yep. This is the man my fellow Americans chose to represent our nation as President - a man who beats up 90 year old nuns and imposes 25% tax hikes to our ONLY FRIEND in the entire world simply for refusing to accept his invitation for statehood. I mean, come on, Trudeau, is that really asking too much of you? Was it really worth bruising Donny's fragile little ego and sending him into a fit of rage? (Seriously, though, I suspect he really does feel as though you are in the wrong for refusing to humor his delusions and thus embarrassing him in front of all his Russian dictator and Ku Klux Klan buddies.)\nOnce again, I do humbly apologize and I promise I will support whatever actions you choose to take and I will help you in any way you deem is best. \nMuch love and peace always, \nMs. S. Delois Jackson

It is sad that one man can drive such a deep wedge between two countries. Herr Trump has proven himself to be completely untrustworthy to all American allies, not just Canada. The pain he insists on inflicting on American allies will not soon be forgotten. Hopefully American voters who suffer from unnecessary high inflation and job loses will not forget either. Buckle up for a bumpy ride.

Listen to the Prime Minister speaking 2 languages. trump can't even speak one past a grade 3 level. trump wants this in order to weaken all democracies in order for putin to take over the world. Why aren't we doing something people? Are we really going to let the hateful racists who voted for the presidunce win? I pray not.

First: sorry for my bad english. It is not my First language. \n\nThis speech was remarkable. No lies, no BS, just the facts. Wish we would here the same out of the White House. \n\nAs a german who knows about german history and how everything started back then I'm terrified how fast the United States of America are moving towards a dictatorship.\n\nEvery politician around the free world should be worried about what is going to happen if DT keeps doing what he is doing, which is undermining every treaty and contract the US is having with the rest of the world.\n\nAnd on a personal note: as a child I always dreamed of someday moving to the USA. After beeing there on holiday in 2017 and also driving to Canada to visit some friends, that dream changed.\n\nDon't get me wrong, I still love your country, but you elected the worst President for the second time! WHY??? You could have known what it would be like, everything was reported on by this network and many others.\n\nAs one commentator said: this is not going to end well. And I and most of Europe and the rest of the world are thinking the same and we are afraid of the things to come.

Trump is the one who will destroy the democracy of USA, the humanity of orderly world, close corporations of Organization like NATO and . . . . .the country stay together peacefully in this world.

Each nation has the right to pursue each ones economy to flourish.. and love thy neighbour as thyself

Nazis feared Leo Major, the canadian Rambo...\nNo one mess lightly with Canada ☠?☠\n\nLove from France ??❤??

At least Fox News and its feeble minded victims still thinks Nazi America, a disastrous economy and having only one ally (in reality Russia cannot stand the USA), are great.

What exports do usa sell around the globe? Coca cola, Macdonald/fast food. Garbage fatty food. Automobiles, all shit. , clothing, all cheap nasty crap. No one byesLevi's, nike, polo , say goodbye to Burberry, gucci, d&d McQueeni could go on in the thousandsof brands. US OIL , SHALE OIL, poor quality, shit beer, shit wine, shit whiskey etc etc . OPEC WONT CAVE. CANADA already, stopping Electric from Canada to Northern US stares. Already crops dying on the vine, etc because the workers have bee deported. And now he stop aid, to Ukraine. Europe, Uk, Commonwealth Countries, increases nations every day now, is turning it/ their backs. What shame, truly a shame.

White Americans this is what happens when you vote racist pretending one candidate is good because he looks like you.

Trudeau is just butthurt that American dollars are not going one-way into Canada any longer. He's a liar and a terrible leader. Everyone in the comments saying he's intelligent. No, on the contrary, he's a moron. Smooth talk doesn't make one intelligent.

As a Canadian ?? I forgive you Americans ?? except one American in particular, named Donald

GLOBALIST NEVER REVEAL WHAT FAIR TRADE MEANS,NO DETAILS, JUST NARRATIVES TO FAVOR A ONE SIDED TRADE DEAL.,,, PRECIPITATION AL TRADE TRUEDOEW

I am not republican or democrat and not a blind supporter of any leader. I criticize Trump as well-BUT - No one damaged Canada as much as this guy! He did so bad that he had to resign- he’s not even worthy of being the leader of Canada! He is simply using the opportunity to cover his incompetence! PATHETIC! This guy is embarrassing himself and his country!

We're, Americans, are fu*ck*d!!! D*umba*ses that voted for Dump contributed to this, so I hope they will be the one to feel the struggle and pain the most! ?

I really believe that it just comes down to Trump feeling resentment that he will never be part of a perceived 'inner circle' of establishment world leaders. It's probably over that one time when they were caught on a hot mic dissing him with Trudeau kind of leading the pack. Over the years Trump has shown over and over again that he is that petty and all of his decisions have an absolutely childish basis, yet the American people voted him in a second time. I've run out of patience with the American people too. They're not really doing anything about this except saying online that they support Canada just so they can feel a little better about themselves. If you guys want a dumpy predator for president that's your business but I will be doing my part to fight him and his unjust attacks against my country.

It takes a lying murderous dictator to no one champ you are the worst thing that ever happened to Canada corrupt to the core

All countries from this point forward should quit trading with the US in any way whatsoever let them survive on their own let them come up with their own chips let them come up with their own minerals let them come up with everything everybody else deal and trade with one another around the world and just let the states rot

Why is no one saying the FENTANYL EXCUSE IS JUST TRUMP GARBAGE

As somebody who works in the retail business, you hit the nail with the hammer on this one we!! we do need the pot as it comes from your guys’s mines so we can grow stuff

Has anybody told the Moron that the King he is so proud to have been invited to a state visit with is the KING of CANADA I am sure he is really impressed with the Moron wanting to annex a major portion of his realm and diminish one of the largest countries in the world to 1 state.

One should talk to no one poppet like the Donald but his master Putin. Putin is weaning the whole world by cutting the America’s links to friends. “Divide and conquer”
