American here. I am on a limited income (Social Security) but I 100% support Canada & what Canada needs to do to counteract the actions of our incompetent, insane 'President'. Go Canada! We not-insane Americans salute you & apologize for our 'Orange Menace'. We look forward to when our governments can be friends again. Our two peoples will always be Friends! (I have family there also.) P.S. The drug issue is a fake issue on the part of the Trump Administration. We all know it's the market that drives illegal drugs-- i.e. our own drug abusers buying this stuff. Cheers, & With Hopes for a Better America. (And Slava Ukraine!)

Just a reminder, Canada/Trudeau commited multiple atrocities against free speech and wellbeing during covid. One example being how they froze the bank accounts of people peacefully protesting the covid mandates. While I don't agree with the tariffs, everybody here should know Canada isnt the perfect, kind, friendly place you think it is. They will turn totalitarian if given enough power or given the right conditions for it.

From North Carolina - standing with Canada, Ukraine, Europe.

Dustbin Turdeau made false allegations on India a few months ago, to polish its domestic politics. It was trying to appease terrorist head lords to gather their support. It allows terrorists in its country and then blames India for a gang war which occurs in its own country. It has destroyed India-Canada relations for its own political goals. Shame on you Dustbin Trudeau.

I stand with Canada. I do NOT support the lunatics in the present administration of the USA.

Why is it so hard for Trudeau to close Canada border?

Support from Germany!! Well done Canada

This idiot is playing checkers and trump is playing go fish. 2 absolute morons. This clown still thinks this is over fentanyl……\n It comes from the USA. This is not over fentanyl Trump wants Canada. He wants its resources. He wants its control over the arctic shipping lanes. Just like he wants Greenland for that same reason. Just like he wants panama for that shipping lane. It’s a power grab.

I stand with America and Trump، I believe it is the time to have a leadership to show up these countries such as Canada and Europe to depend on themselves without Americans

So how do i defect from the USA to Canada.

I dont know why canada is dragging Russia here ??

I stand with Canada ??

Donald lied about Canada...so how can anything be says be believable???\nHow

His Excellency Trudeau is what excellency is all about. He didnt just save Canada, he might just have saved the world with this speech.

Canada never pays their fair share either

This is the best speech Justin Trudeau had delivered! Canada has my support!

As an American, I stand with Canada and our allies! This is nuts! Republicans, I thought it was peace day one. What happened? If Donald's lips are moving, he's lying.

Im so proud of our Prime Minister Trudeau for fighting our beautiful country Canada. God bless Canada.

Im so scared of Canada ?????

I want to move to Canada.

The Donald divided the USA. He wanted you to despise the Democrats, couldn't stop putting them down. There is more division now then there ever have been. He wanted his people to beat police officers on January 6th, chase Mike Pence and he expected them to steal the election for them. Now he wants his followers to hate Canada. Donald has always adored Putin and looked up to him. He defended him the last time he was president.

The whole ‘standing with Canada’ sentiments are not needed and actually misdirected. Canadians will be fine. Don’t stand with us, take care of your own bs.

Stay honest and true in every way you can. Character really is destiny. I love my country but we are under siege by our own government, a group of sycophantic grifters who do not possess the wisdom, experience nor the disciplined intelligence to fulfill the duties their positions require. I stand with Canada and admire Mr. Trudeau for being willing to call out Donald Trump and address us Americans directly. Yes, we will all pay for this stupidity—except of course the MAGA elite.

I'm a Canadian. I am trying to wrap my head around why a President would start a trade war by imposing tariffs that hurt their allies and hurt his own people..!? I am not an economist nor an investor; However I found it interesting that the immediate result of this as they corresponded about this news is how the markets are taking a major dive. If I wanted to make money off the stock market and had no morals and had the power to cause it to crash, I would make sure it crashed hard by imposing tariffs. Then I would invest as many billions in the key stocks that will come back, and watch my billions turn into 10's or 100's of billions...\nThe other possible explanation could simply be that he wants all the critical minerals from Canada, Greenland, Ukraine for nothing. Taking those minerals for free and selling electric cars, miliatary equipment, etc. would be most profitable!\nBut greed seems to know no bounds for those who are wealthy, as long as it's at their gain and not at their expense!

The American president has hurt Canada, the USA and the World. Hateful behavior.

Canada, please know that the intellectual, thoughtful American public is with you, we are not with him, he is no more than a flash in the pan failed real estate developer and failed reality tv show host. We all know that this too shall pass, please stay with us.

Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine! Thank you Mr. Trudeau ?❤️❤️❤️ \nDonald should resign!

I’m a veteran an I stand with Canada!

invade canada now!

GOOD BLESS CANADA!!!!

Canada about to end up like Ukraine.

11:55 of course trump was not interested in doing a LEGAL minerals deal with Canada, he would rather join putin and STEAL President ZIELINSKI and the Ukrainian people mineral wealth. That is the ONLY reason putin invaded Ukraine. For Ukraine mineral wealth ? much love from The Bahamas to President ZIELINSKI and the Ukrainian people ??????? keep fighting for your country and democracy. Hats off to Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau and the Canadian people for standing firm against trump and doing the right thing #glorytoUkraine #TheBahamas #242ToTheWorld #Canada

Heads Up! Elon Musk's mother was Canadian. Why does the president push for the 51st state? Goldwater ran against Johnson for president and because he was born in Arizona when it was a territory, eventually to become a state, The commentators said Goldwater could become president. So, if the USA were to make Canada the 51st state . . . Elon Musk could become president. Reality Check X.

Viva Canada

Love you, Canada! Keep up the great work.

The niceness place on earth! Canada ?? ?

It's not we the people. We have a vicious, insane dictator in trump! Canada is our ally and closest neighbor, still in my mind and heart.

Russia isn’t Americas enemy. Biden made them the enemy. We want the strongest allies and the allies who can provide to us and in return provide to them. Canada and the EU just sucks at our teet. Russia doesn’t and we benefit more being allies with them

I mean the magas do realize that our alliances bow to him because ita America not h right!? Lol now Canada says we'll we love you America but Canada first lol good job trump.

Imagine screwing up so badly that Canada —CANADA — has to sit you down like an irresponsible child and explain basic economics. \n\nNext, Trudeau will be offering a coloring book to illustrate 'Actions Have Consequences' while the U.S. government wonders why their groceries now cost as much as a used car. ????

Respect to Canada. So sorry what our (US) government is doing.

I don't buy anything Canada so it's your loss, I thought you resigned already. You chose to be woke so FAFO.

Good on you, Canada! Don't back down! I and many other Americans support you fully!

I want to move to Canada!!! Rescue us from ?

I'm an American with some family ties to Canada and I'm deeply ashamed of how my government under Trump is systematically destroying it's historic relationships with almost all our allies. Trump and his cronies are only interested in the use of raw power to dominate the current geo-political reality. Thank you Trudeau for speaking so bluntly and honestly and for standing up to our bully-in-chief.

Nearly 73,000 comments in 8 hours, and so much support for Canada. As a Canadian, I am profoundly grateful, thank you all so much! We didn't want this, but we're in it with everything we've got.

Fiull respect... that's a real leader! I love Canada

Michigander living in Louisiana (right now)—So embarrassed and ashamed of this country. Millions of us here in the US did NOT choose this administration—and we support Canada in its resistance, resilience, and continual rationality. I grew up very close to the Canadian border—should've moved up there when I had the chance. Open to Canadian marriage proposals! (Joking. (Sort of.))

Brilliant!!! Well thought out and so well presented! Great work Canada!!!

trudeau is a clown. Did'nt he resign ???? He is corrupt and Canada needs to get rid of him ??? they need someone that is capable ???
