trump wants your country , putin has promised it to be him and showed him how to gin up the fevour for an eventual invasion of your country. The fent is is an obvious ruse. Who knows what the next lie will be.

Why doesn’t Trump instead of using his words\nStand up as a man against Trudeau whoever wins\nGets\nAll the money. Then for sure canada\nWill be the victor. Then Trudeau can do the same with Putin where he would win again. If these leaders want to fight then do it as warrirors

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.

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?

Putin works for the Russian mob and Donald J Trump works for a dictator named Putin who wants to bring America to it's knees now this is a major problem. Donald J Trump has got to go immediately, forcefully and aggressively the individuals that work for the government that we will never know or hear of but make sure that Americans are safe from foreign and domestic terrorist so we may have a peace of mind while we sleep have a job to do godspeed to you.

This is not US goverment this is Trump doing destroying the west \nTrump is bias of Putin\nWhy people of USA do not go on the street to Support Ukraine at least to show solidarity\nTrump offers Zelenski Capitulation and that gives Putin Wings to continue to take the rest of Ukraine and slowy whole Europe\nHe wants to reverse Reagan-Gorbacov history and with Trump he will succeed\nThis is Weaker America not stronger America\nHomer Simpson will do better than Trump

Trudeau can criticize all he wants, but Trump’s alignment with Putin was the right move—strong leadership that prioritized peace and stability over endless conflict.

Trump is Putin's girlfriend so he only wants to make Putin happy

Donald Trump wants to be Putin 2. He admires him, wants power and control like him. Trump is a wicked man and needs to consider his ways.

The Orange lunatic is the master of falsehood! He will made up all kinds of allegation on those he is taking revenge on those who laugh at him for his stupidity during his first term! He doesn't care if any of his action will hurt Americans, they are the last thing in his mind (except those oligarchs who are supporting him)! The next most troubling reason for his action is because he wants to weaken the free world alliance to benefit Putin! This trouble that he is creating will disrupt the economy round the world distracting the focus in the Ukraine war! And weaken the financial support that Ukraine's friends are consolidating to overcome the shortfall from US withdrawing aids to Ukraine! Lastly, that Orange lunatic is preparing a path to turn US into an autocratic, dictatorship system and align with Putin, so that he can corruptly benefit himself without opposition (he can suppress any opposition like Putin)!

Mr. Prime Minister I’m a proud Canadian. I know that we are ethical and we have integrity. We complied with the fentanyl issue, but this is not about fentanyl, it’s about something more. Perhaps he wants to do to Canada what Putin did to Ukraine, without the military force, but with the monetary force.

I'm just going to clarify something remember when they said Trump had allies with Russia now you see what the Democrats were talking about. Trump always blames democrats for his faults. Trump had you guys convinced not to vote for Democrat. Now are allies don't even want to deal with the US anymore which is understandable because of what the whole nation seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears. Trump says he wants to make America Great American dream not for Americans maybe for you Republicans I guarantee a lot of Republicans don't agree with him but they all are scared to say anything to Trump and his team which that is disturbing within itself. Trump needs to be impeached he's causing to much chaos and still getting away with people's lives in real life situations this is not a joke. As for JD Vance his vice president he was laughing and asking Zelenskyy why was he not wear a suit what about Elon musk he wasn't wearing a suit? And when you ask another person to come from another country to the White House they are dressed in their traditional clothing to be mocked by these men is despicable. Real people lost their jobs, real people are dying that need aid,for them to shut down the military aid was a slap in the face,mind you they sit back and laugh about it.. Russia is the last person Trump should be nice Putin is not on the US side it's obvious but Trump laughs with him, communicate better with Putin which is disturbing as well. Having the power and money makes people so entwined into their own world,Trump should think about Americans first and not act like a disrespectful person he ruined his chance not Zelenskyy. Now We the people are looking at our President and vice President like the are unhinged, disrespectful, uncompassionate, and down right rude. Kamala,Tim warned everyone Barak, Michelle, Biden did also y'all should have listened. I voted for Kamala and Tim. If Trump wants peace he needs to stop with all the madness and focus fixing the US.

Does anyone else want to know why trump kissing Putin behind so much.... Any Suggestions?

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

I'm a Canadian who has always voted for Prime Minister Trudeau and I will continue to vote liberal. I heard a person on the Jake Tapper, C NN, this afternoon say all the companies are coming to the USA not Canada, he didn't mention that they come because they don't have to pay a lot of taxes. Us Canadians take great offense that the spawn of the devil wants to annex our country and he refers to our Prime Minister as governor. The orange dumb criminal and his maggots would probably give part of our country to snakehead war tyrant putin who has interest in the Artic and that would involve Greenland. We Canadians don't want to make life difficult for the American people but the dumb evil cheeto likes tariffs. President Zelenski didn't start the war and he won't be the one to start WW3. putin is a war criminal who controls the criminal organization in the White House and it's leader. President Zelenski be careful the spawn of the devil ? and war tyrant can't be trusted. ?????

funny how the dictator talks about putin as a dictator. funny how so many canadians want trudeau OUT of office because of his totalitarian edicts especially during covid. hypocrisy is not pretty

I AM CANADIAN. And sad to say I and my family were Trump supporters through halfway through his first term. The BS and blantent vugar talk from his mouth and now criminal conviction was enough. But now that I see Elon Musk , Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezzos and other billionaires in his shady corner I knew something wasnt right! And after how President Zelenskyy was treated, disgusting right for the news to see on purpose. Your President is way too close to Putin and who knows what other countries. Trump, and his cronies want the spoils and treasures of Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and Gazza! BTW Trump your welcome from Canada ?? for helping putting out your fires in California! But, then again we know you wont thank Canada! Hey Americans Canada ?? loves you! Alot of great history together! Lets not let trump and his cronies divide us!

Trump wants a former KGB agent as his bud?Donnie Putin wants us to go down.

For the love of all that's holy -- it's NOT hard to see that THIS is what Trump wants -- to be allied with Putin. He only does what strokes his ego and his ego WANTS TO ALLY WITH PUTIN. The sooner everyone else accepts that, the sooner we will be allied internally against this dire threat.

I'm with Canada wholeheartedly. I apologize for this dumbfuckery, Mr. Trudeau. Every day, when I wake up, I wonder: Is he gone yet? That's my current wish. Trump accused Kamala Harris of wanting to bring the country to World War III, but is he, a FIVE-TIME DRAFT DODGER, who is itching to have blood and death at a global level, in his name. He is a shameful loser, and Putin's puppet.❤

I’m convinced Trump wants to kill the US. He’s doing everything possible to help Russia at the expense of America. Is it because Putin is blackmailing Trump, is it because Trump is a Russian mole, is it because he ?is being paid by Putin? Who knows? But unless he is impeached, and impeached soon, American may never recover.

he is not going to war with you you dope, it's just a tariff, not even a trade war like he did with China, Trudeau, grow up!!\nhe is not appeasing with Putin, he's not at war with them, he wants to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine, what's da madder with u!?

I think Trumps secret plan is to bankrupt USA because its in the interest of Russia. I have come to believe he is a secret Russian spy put in place to destroy as much as he can. The reason is that Putin has some kind of dirty secret on him that he desperately does not want to come out or That he owes him a lot of money and the Russian mob will kill him if he does not follow the plan Russia have set in motion. If the US does not wake up he will sell their country.

We're all so disgusted and saddened about all of this. You're so right about everything that you're saying about trump; Putin has his puppet in this country and he's making the most of it, by helping trump to become dictator here. Please Canada, do what you have to do, we don't want this either; we're stuck with trump until our congress grows a spine and kicks this ugly, vindictive man out of office! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, you are what is needed in this crisis! I'm glad to be a Canadian, I just wish I was living there, not here. What a total embarrassment to us all that did not vote for trump. (from Sandi Paquet)

When are we going to kick out this fascist dictator ?!?! We all know musk arranged this win for him and this is not what we want !! I stand with Canada and Ukraine and everything that America once stood for and the principals we were founded on ! Fck Trump Fck Musk Fck Vance Fck Thiel Fck Putin ! Where is my America ??? What happened to our integrity ?!?!

Canada has known for decades that we have put too many eggs in one basket - selling our resources primarily to the USA. We've had tariffs before and worked with them. Yet we still keep selling to the USA. This time is different. In conjunction with the tariffs, we have an American administration that is flat out insulting Canada. Saying we wouldn't exist economically if it wasn't for the USA. It's at a time when the USA won't promise not to use military force to annex land (Greenland) from a decades old ally. A time when clearly Putin is calling in his chips for whatever he has over Donald Trump. Canadians have had enough. We are directing our governments, provincial and federal, to finally, finally break from the north-south trade links. We need to establish stronger east-west trade links. The resources we have are wanted by many countries if the USA does not want them. It does mean much work within Canada. We need to get our AB-BC pipeline finished as well as the new sea terminal so we can ship our crude oil and natural gas to Japan and if need be, to China. We finally need to get out pipeline to the Atlantic coast finished so we can supply the UK and EU with our products. We need to double our rail capacity for shipping potash, uranium, rare minerals to Asia or Europe. Just as Trump hopes for a golden age of American companies coming home and building new plants in the USA, this will be a golden decade for Canada to create transportation corridors to get our resources to other buyers. America will have to look elsewhere for his raw materials. And we all know what that is - RUSSIA. They've already offered their rare minerals and crude oil. This is all clearly a well thought out scenario from the people working behind Trump to dismiss America's allies and trading partners - have us turn against the USA - as the excuse to open the door to Russian imports into the USA.

Weak Trudeau. You do realize that Canada can't get any other goods with large tariffs from other countries. It all has to come from USA. Very smart Tump. Not sure why he is bringing Putin in it when he wants a peace deal.

It's no trade war, it's protectionnism. Something you should have done way before in your 10-year tenure. Also, he's not allying Putin, he's negociating on behalf of world peace. You don't get what you want by insulting people, so thinking Putin will cease fire and retreat if you call him names clearly isn't the solution. It hasn't worked for three years, why would that change now? Also, stop giving away our money to Zelenskyy. Sit this one out, Justin, we've had enough. Respectfully. They're 10 times bigger than us and we have no leverage whatsoever. Inflation is at an all-time high, people can't handle more. Please. I'm sure you're great outside of work, I'd share a beer anytime, but this has to stop. Please.

I am an Asian American I support Canada and the EU or NATO countries to fight against the evil empire that invaded Ukraine. I believe Putin is the mastermind behind the trade war because he wants to stir up the fights to separate the allies to be weakened. Putin wanted revenge for the fall of the Soviet union. Now his tactics seemed to be working.

Ukraine has neo Nazi military called “Azov” do your research before blame Putin for starting a war, Ukrainian nationalists attacked east of Ukraine after east wanted to join Russia after Ukrainian revolution in 2014 where legitimate president was removed by force against the law.

From an American citizen, GIVE TRUMP HELL CANADA!!! Please make new trade partners and new alliances. Cut the US out and off completely. This is going to hurt Americans very badly, as you say. Trump is sick. He is a want to be dictator. He wants to be like Putin, and like Xi Jinping, Kim Jong Un, and Erdogan! This may very well be the end of American as world leader... This may be our very end.

Trump wants to assist Putin to take Canada.

I think Trump is taking orders from Putin because this behavior is what will destroy America and that is what Putin wants. Putin told him to stand up and be a man and make them obey you. This is what dumb Trump is listening to and doing

The stupidity of trump is incompetent for him to take sides with Russia over our allies will weaken our country and maybe allow our real enemies to invade our country because of his actions getting rid of people who have experience and knowledge in the job they been doing for years all this action just to be able to get close with Putin to be a dictator also in a country that has been free for over 250 years I want to see if people that support him and the republican will agree with him over the wishes of the American people.

Is not a joke but Trump is a Russian Puppet. He doing exactly was Putin wants. Next he will cancel all sanctions on Russia. By by USA. ?

Everyone knows this isn't about fentyal. \nTrump regime is a Russian asset and he's doing what papa putin wants. \nBut this is what you voted for. Enjoy.

A very sick coverage indeed. USA wants to stop milking others for free to protect its ailing independence. As for Russia it is not mere Putin. The British were leading a sick policy of involving all to a fight to weaken them all, then their sick British empire may rise again.

Putin economy is collapsing, US Trump want to bring down all who help Ukraine.

make that make sense tho lol trump doesnt want usa to go to war (nukes) with russia and allow putin to be buddy buddy

First and foremost let’s be reminded that Trump is doing this for Putin in retaliation to what the Biden administration did to Russia with the sanctions for invading Ukraine. Secondly, Trump wants to be King. By weakening our economy and putting millions of people at risk and ruining their lives, he hopes a civil war can be started so that Russia, North Korea and possibly China can attack us while at war with each other and the Federal Government.

That’s the question “WHAT IS THIS REALLY ABOUT” there is something very wrong going on here! This current ?leading our country straight into hell has reasons far beyond fent! Like Prime Minister Trudeau said “that’s his excuse” esp. with Canada as we have known & for anyone who hasn’t known,they do now. Canada is not our biggest concern of Fent getting into our country! Trump wants to look like a hero to his sheep but he is only a puppet being played by Putin!What is it that Putin has that either is on Trump or what Trump wants! Keywords “what Trump wants” bc none of us want this! He is weakening our country almost daily & getting closer to Russia?! Russians don’t even trust Putin,let alone any Americans, esp leaders! Putin would destroy his own for power & yet Trump thinks he’s some “good trustworthy guy” we are headed into a very very dark time! The faster we get him out the faster we can repair the damage done! Idk how anyone supports this ?any longer\nAs an American I stand with Canada ?? Ukraine ?? Mexico ?? Europe! Ppl get ur passports ready! I’m ready to leave & come back in 4yrs!

Why this nato leader quack just try and blame Russia and china for American tariffs on Canada this news channel is talking about tariffs and for some reason the topic of fearmongering Russia and china \nMr nato leader quack everyone who is well informed on what Putin and Russia want you clearly don’t so educate yourself

As an American I'm 60 yrs old. And I totally agree With Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau 1000%. I never wanted Trump. And let's make this clear by all means. To those that voted for his dumb ass I hope u you got what you wanted. HE DOES NOT GIVE A CRAP BOUT AMERICA ONLY PUTIN WHO WITH TRUMP BEING THE ULTIMATE ASS KISSER TO HIM TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY AND THE PEOPLE WITHIN IT. GOD HELP US ALL. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY. TRUMP IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF.

Trump has been using fear mongering rants and exaggerations all along to get supporters to believe it. Biden had more illegals deported than Trump ever did. Biden had record jobs and record low unemployment. Trump's a SOCIOPATH and pathological liar who is now siding with Putin. Trump's Dismantled everything he can to create Chaos and will eventually say the protests require Martial Law. Trump's the Arsonist and the Firefighter. Trump wants Dominance like Putin and Xi Jinping, they're his Heroes. Get a clue and stop the INSANITY.

Trudeau should have told the world that the reason Donald duck Trump wants Canada is because Putin wants it if the idiot Donald duck Trump can take Canada it would be agift to putin so that Donald Duck Trump is the king of the United States

Trump wants Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal. Remember that he said that Putin's invasion of Ukraine was a genius act. He's a bully. Don't back down.

Donald Trump Want to hand Putin \n the United States on a silver plate.

Can you not see it? Donald Grump wants this. His next move is to ask the military to invade Canada and Mexico. And Grump will tell lies again to the American people why he is doing it. And dumb Americans will believe it. \nHe told Zelensky about WWIII? Grump is the one who’s starting it. And why is that? Simple, Grump and Putin are BFF’s that wants to rule the whole world. \nSane Americans should start a revolution and kick Grump and his cronies out of the office and jail them all in Quantico.

Donald Trump wants to be like Putin. Americans, What have you done?

As an American the citizens don't really have a choice on what trump decides to do. If you want to match his 25% tariffs I think you should. We qlso don't want to help putin hurt others. We want to work with Canada our allies. I don't personally know anyone that doesn't agree with this but that doesnt meant they do not exost.
