What Canada needs to understand is that you have a problem with our president? You don’t need to have a problem with all Americans we all support Canada so please understand that. It’s two people put the hurt on them don’t punish innocent Americans we love you guys.

A Yank here. I support Canada ??!

Can't wait to move to Canada tired of this circus in America.

trumps tarrifs tax on goods imported from Canada are paid by the AMERICAN COMPANIES who import the goods, NOT paid by Canadian companies, it's an extra sales tax which raise prices.

I'm so proud of this guy and I'm not even Canadian. But I love Canada.

From USA. What a good speech, TRUDEAU is eloquent, smart, diplomatic, and I'm pleased he called Trump Donald. THAT SPEAKS Volumes here. TRUMP is not my president. I'm sickened to what he is doing, harming Canada and Usa. Trump sickens me. He is not smart. He is not a leader. I'm with CANADA. AND UKRAINE!!

we the American people don't want this either. it's only the Trump administration that is asking for this . thank you for your understanding Canada we the people stand with you as well.

RIP canada

He almost ruined Canada with COVID but I don't agree with Trump

As an American for over 8 decades I want Trudeau as president of the USA. Or may I request Canada make USA a province?

Keep standing up Canada true untited states citizens support you. Do what you need to do to fight back against this bully felon.

I was born in Canada to Ukrainian Immigrants. I have dual citizenship. My loyalty is to both countries. I hate what President Trump has created here. We are now pawns in the game of Trade War. So sad.

Who needs Canada when you have Russia as your friend.

Stay Strong Canada We are trapped here in the USA this is not America anymore American on truly support what you have to do... as far as the jobs he's already laying people off all over the place he's taken away or Healthcare he's taken away or Freedom he's taken away a financial Social Security and Medicare soon

Canada join the EU! The USA are no longer a reliable partner. Maybe you Canadians can even help bringing the UK back into the EU.

its OK for Canada to have higher tariffs on the USA but not the otherway Canada should help the USA and bring there tariffs down and we will bring our tariffs down 0 tariffs for all Canada needs us more then we need them.

I support the USA. The tariffs will hurt Canada and Mexico far more than the USA. In 2023 - 76% of Canada's exports were shipped to the US. That is 19% of their total GDP. Mexico exported 78% of its exports to the US, which is 37% of its GDP. US exports to Canada & Mexico combined were only 2.7%. Both countries will need to find other buyers or capitulate. No wonder Trudeau is screaming like a stray dog hit by a rock.

HELL YEAH.! Give'm HELL. Build a wall and make US-inanians Pay For it.!\n\nCome to think about it, maybe Canada should strengthen ties with the Piplz Rep o'China, and stuff; see how much the US likes THEM apples!

CANADAS TARRIFFS 270 PERCENT on milk 45 on metals amd there's alot more. So CANADA deserves all the TARRIFFS

What about all the tarriffs we are already paying TO Canada???

Respect to Canada from Ukraine ❤

Canada’s economy will tank than we will make them our 51st great idea trump

It’s what happens when you give a greedy narcissistic person, the reins to a country, with no oversight, or controls! Heads-up Canada keep up the fight you have Allies across the pond, they will buy your goods, and we down here in America will suffer, until someone takes the reins!

Fentanyl and illegal migration are side shows to the actual intent to force Canada into joining the United States… this is not fantasy to Trump, this is his actual objective…

PM Trudeau called trump smart....he reached WAY down for that one. These are NOT smart men moves. Kudos to Canada for NOT backing down.

Boot lickas. Canada can’t win a trade war w the US?

EU welcome Canada. Viva la Canadiana Coffee!!! USA = fuki fuki $3.

Canada will be our 51 st state !!!!!

Is this the beginning of US plans to invade Canada?

Canada has been treating the United States like their personal ATM for way too long. You bring nothing to the table, but you have the audacity to ask for everything. It’s sad how most people don’t understand politics and just rely on media to tell them how to think and feel Russia is not a threat to no one but they have been constantly attack attacked by everyone especially the United States. You guys talk war but you’re not ready for World War III. No one can ever be ready for that

Don't surrender to a bully! Go Canada fight3x! Teach the traitor trump a lesson!

The media sides with anybody who criticises Trump, the president knows what hes doing, look at what the chinese did to our granite construction products, dump cheap crap to put our ppl out of business, Canada does this as well, you have to explore things between the lines, why is Trudeau spreading fear if this wasnt going to benefit our country?

He promised Putin Ukraine as long as he could have Canada...

Dear Canada, I am an American citizen, and I do not agree with what Trump is doing. I do not agree that Trump is President.

I’m so so sorry Canada we love you hate our president

Russia should take it's old soviet satellite countries. China can have Taiwan. America unites the contenent. Canada and Mexico become the new US territories. This is the new world order to come. You can't fight the future. Resistance is futile.

This man does not speak for my family or my community and does not speak for Canada. He's a criminal and ruined my country. Save Canada.

I'm from Canada and this Trade War will not impact my positive view of the American People and America itself.

what about invading Canada? then it's logical not to have to bother with Canada's opinion

Canada may need this enhanced border security to defend against Trump

Two seconds later the new tariff on Canada is 50%. Mark my word. The phony canadians will end up crying.

As a Canadian, I stand with Canada.

❤ Thank you Mr. Trudeau, Canada has always been America’s greatest ally. No nonsense speech. ?

America stands with Canada. U fortunately,the next 4 years will be rough,for us all!

As an American canada have the right to retaliate. Its too bad that US have overly smart president that somehow overflow from his head????

Bravo Trudeau!!! This real American supports Canada ?? and all that are against d ?

Can't wait to watch Canada's economy to tank. Since they think they are so tuff lol. Our economy can handle it but Canada can't. It'll kill there economy that's why they are crying.

I am American and do not support what trump is doing to CANADA.

Canada should be with the EU as he said a lot the same ?

Another liar....he can get s job with CNN...Canada needs America more than America needs Canada....Why do we protect,defend them.Bring all jobs to the US!!!Go Trump!!!!!
