Their is no logical relation of tariffs to fenatyl/drugs or immigration. How can a tariff solve the problem on fenatyl or immigration? I dont get it . Why not directly have solution to the problem rather than create another problem.

Very intelligent reply by Canada against a deranged orange FELON. Tariffs are really bad for everybody.

Folks here are forgetting that Trump is putting Tariffs on Canada because of Trudeau - a far leftist government. If we had a centrist government, this would not have happened.\nLest we never forget that Trudeau couldn't even talk to the Truckers, ceased their property and money illegally. Hopefully, none of us forget what a dictator this criminal is.

Why is this Turd speaking for Canada? \n\nThe US tariffs impact US buyers. Not Canadians buyers. \n\nThese Canadian tariffs impact Canadian buyers. WTF!! The Government goes back to work to “add tax” to Canadians buying from US. Long standing relationships with the US. \n\nCalls the President “Donald”. What a disgrace. What a joke. Get rid of this guy.

The trade deficit between US and Canada is enormous! 420 billion from Canada to US, 65 billion from US to Canada! What's the benefits of putting tariff on US goods boy?!

Clown Trudeau refuses secure the border why's that? Is he getting pesos from the Kar----tels? ?But is willing to go Tariff war with US for refusing to do so? Who's the enemy here? DOGE Canada too Elon.

The only thing that's going to pay for that little wagging d*ck power monger is The People. So proud of tariffs and snubbing cooperative relationship. All the leaders are like, 'I see your tariff and raise it 5%.' So proudly talking about agreements = tariffs. The only profiteers from this are gov'ts and bribe takers. Capitalism swallows itself.

Such a great alliance ~now falling apart.\nThey defeated evil in WW2 now just fighting over trade tariffs.

Why didn’t he secure the border long time ago? Why did he wait for trump to impose tariffs for him to act on things?

What Trump is doing is collecting money from these tariffs, while at the same time bringing certain industries back to the United States. These tariffs will not be permanent but will remain for a certain period to encourage companies to relocate. He runs his country like a business, he doesn’t care if there are job losses elsewhere.\n\nCanada and Mexico will have to adjust and start becoming less dependent on the United States. It will be difficult for Canada because we are a consumer country, we manufacture almost nothing. TSMC is moving to the U.S., his plan is working, and other companies will follow.\n\nHere in Canada, we import a huge amount of American products. We absolutely need to change our habits, we should not support a country that wants to see us fail.

TRUTH!! The truth hurts Trump’s plan of chaos!! Thank you Mr. Trudeau; Republicans need to hear the TRUTH and end the misinformation! There is no end to the illogical actions that Trump is making but tariffs have been proven to result in a recession. Cutting thousands of jobs of people making $18/hr is insane!! Now, the government can pay unemployment and healthcare for people who were paying taxes! Then there is revenue lost because National Parks and Federal common spaces are closed. Then there was the this: CDC restricted from updating Americans on the latest epidemiologist reports on Covid, bird flu, the chickenpox outbreak in Texas, flu, and every other potential pandemic virus. Women and children will die as a result of this action! \nAgain, illogical anctions along with Trump aligning himself with Putin and every other dictator. He can move to Russia if he wants to live his life under Putin. He treats everyone the same; expendable!

We Love You Canada! We do Not support these Tariffs we grieve with you! I'm so very sorry! God Bless you <3

Export tariffs on energy ... about time!

We should put a big export tax on Preperation h because the Americans will be needing a lot more of that cream while this tariff war continues

Isn't trumps tariffs just matching canadas ?

+50% Prostitution Tariff.... ?❤

lol how does it feel getting tariffs back, but its ok for Canada to tariff US and we accept it? grow some balls weak ass liberal trans man!

very simple, all countries STOP exporting whatever you do to the USA. Give it 3 months and Trump will have to cancel 100% tariffs for the world in order to get basic goods. The world united can get this clown to stop being a total idiot.

Shill and suck for putin bc hes scary but strong arm, tariff, and insult our closest allies. We sold out to the kremlin. Yall voted for russian commie sympathizing losers thatre gonna ruin our economy. Good job. Mexico and Canada will still produce these things, theyll just sell them to a dofferent country with no tariffs, and tariff what they do sell us. This only hurts and undermines america and american interests, it helps our allies and enemies while simultaneously furthering our allies and alienating them from us. Its brain dead.

Sotty trump called these reciprocal tariffs ? Was Canada impossing tarrifs on America before this?\n\n And fentanyl ? Really a drug that , after a quick google, appers to be approved by the Federal Drug agency , yeah go figure that one

Remember all the discussions and debate about implementing tariffs on our closest trade partners and allies during the campaigning of the last election. I don’t either…. That must have been discussed on a private call with Putin. Makes no sense otherwise. This is terrible for US end the west overall.

Mr. Trumps tariffs are designed to hurt global economics, such that it's easier for Putin to win in Europe.

These tariffs weren't new news n youre using them as a smoke screen because u cant beat the conservatives so youll try n aim at trump. Youre taxes hurt canada more than trump ever could

need a 100% tariff on Tesla

From Texas, Trump is acting like a 5-year-old child. Canada has always been our closest ally; these tariffs are a slap in the face that will harm not only working class American, but it also spits on generations of close friendship and trust between our countries. This is lunacy. I pray for all of our Canadian friends and for all Americans.

I think we should increase tariffs ofn American digital services as well, as they are, leading there.

Canada already had tariffs on certain U.S. goods before the recent trade disputes escalated in 2025. Historically, Canada has maintained tariffs on various American products to protect its domestic industries, particularly in sectors like agriculture and manufacturing. For example, under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (USMCA), which replaced NAFTA and was signed during Donald Trump’s first term, trade between the U.S. and Canada is largely tariff-free for many goods. However, Canada has long imposed high tariffs on specific U.S. products outside of these agreements, such as dairy, poultry, and eggs, under its supply management system. These tariffs can reach up to 270% on milk, 245% on cheese, and nearly 300% on butter, designed to shield Canadian producers from foreign competition.\n\nAdditionally, Canada has applied tariffs on other U.S. goods over the years, often in response to trade disputes or to balance economic interests. For instance, before the latest round of tariffs in 2025, Canada had tariffs on thousands of product categories, though the exact scope and rates varied depending on the goods and trade agreements in place. Posts found on X also highlight sentiment that Canada has had tariffs on U.S. products like dairy and cars for decades, with some claiming rates as high as 25% on U.S. vehicles—though this may reflect specific cases rather than a blanket policy.\n\nIn contrast, the U.S. generally did not impose broad tariffs on Canadian goods until recent actions under President Trump, who introduced a 25% tariff on Canadian imports effective March 4, 2025, prompting Canada to retaliate with reciprocal 25% tariffs on CA$155 billion of U.S. goods. This retaliation built on Canada’s existing tariff framework but escalated the scale significantly. So, while Canada did have tariffs on U.S. goods beforehand, the current trade war has intensified the situation far beyond the pre-existing measures

it is more effective for Canada to implement 1000% tariff on Tesla and other Elon's product than the common 25% tariff on pan US products.

How many MAGA supporters support the tariff that Don kicked in?

As if the ukrainian president speaks to the russian …… unfortunately Putin chose to use tanks instead of tariffs.

You would think that Trump would not put blanket Tariffs on imported goods and services from UK, Canada , Australia and New Zealand as there is a common history and connection all the back in time to the UK.

Well, when one of the worlds famous American billionaire's ( Warren Buffet) TELLS YOU that tariffs are an act of war, perhaps you should listen. Trump is going to send millitary aid to Russia, and ask for Russian aid to annex Canada. USA- your sons and daughters are in danger.

Who cares what he has to say the Duke completely destroyed the Canada what do you think about what he did to Canada and all his woke mentality and is transgenderism and his whole whole thing he did to destroy that country with his woke crap World economic Forum crap Joe Biden liberal leftist crap that's what he did and and then who cares what he has to say about what Donald Trump is doing and who cares what he has to say about tariffs who cares what he has to say he's a crook he's a criminal and you left this liberal media want to all Trudeau who cares he's a stupid coward

trudeau suggesting his meeting with the king is out of context with modern reality\na shared interest in historical ties with england\nwe all know england has a very dark past of savagery and inhumanity and of course religious intolerance\ninhumanity on an unbelievable scale\ntrump would be honered to have participated in englands past\ntrudeau should chose his words more carefully\nits not possible to make a case for humanity whilst including a very dark relationship with jolly old england whom by the way is stuck in its gory past\nthese tariffs will not effect those who are imposing them mostly they will affect those already struggling\nso again trudeau is not really making a good case for humanity\nin fact it looks more like a willful and willing game of tit for tat with trump\nwhile the only injured will be the poor\nit looks more like trudeau is in partnership with trump and putin aligned against the poor\nhow can any one call this good diplomatic strategy while the politicians stay high and dry\nwhile the poor are left damp in spirit\ntrudeau is no political genuis unless his real pact is with trump albeit still no genuis simply a coconspirator against the turf by the aristocracy which of course england by all means claims for itself with its castle slash dungeonary past\nthe cries of many still ring out across the green rolling hills of england even after a thousand years\ntyrants they are\nengland shall never escape its past

Good lets wrap Canada in the bag and feel the precedence of tariff.

I think we need to give it time. In a year or two picture should be clear. I don't think tariffs are necessary a bad thing long term if they spike more production of everything or at list anything in US. Short term it would be painful for everybody tho. We become a country of no production. Only consumption is not healthy. It is how every empire behaves on a last breath. Look back in history. Rom, Spain etc.Sooner or later we wouldn't be able to exchange worthless green paper to goods anymore outside of the country unable to produce anything inside the country and we die. Personally I find it interesting and possibly well thought experiment.. Living the way we did last 50 years is not possible anymore. Something need to change and at list Donald is trying unlike those useless talking heads. How will it ends. Who knows. I can only hope for success. In worst case we'll have unending supply of discounted bourbon:).

That is so great that you reply to Trump Tariffs.. Thanks

Non-tariff? FAFO

They have chosen to undermine the the ties between and among , canada should respond 25 percent tariff on all consumers of usa product

Unfortunately, you’ve been leaching off the American Economy too long. The gig’s over guys. Lower your tariffs to us and just be fair. If not, we will create our own products and/or get our resources elsewhere.

Well if hes going to talk like that all governor positions are off the table for him...\nMaybe Putin will catch Trudeaus ankle with an umbrella end and ding dong the witch is dead. ?\nFunniest thing is he says prices are expected to rise for Americans . Through tariffs right?\nSo then he matches those tariffs. So i guess Canadians can expect the same old bs from him.\nBC legalized fentynol! They found a giant fentynol lab out there. Imagine how many more there are! \nCrack heads all over our major cities in Canada. Jobs are down, economy is down, human rights is down. But he has nice socks.

What was Trump's reason for the tariff?

Canada blowing smoke. Canada and EU have always charged USA with high tariffs where the USA did not reciprocate. Now we will level the field. Do your research people. Canada needs the USA, USA does not need Canada. This can be all solved on tariffs if all countries do reciprocal %'s. Doubt that will happen.

What is the desired outcome of the tariffs for the U.S.?

YRS. The tariffs r unjustified. It's about greed only.

Too late for you Justin, step aside, Nice speech tho. why follow others, make it 28% tariffs, we are different in Canada.

No more buying US. No visits/ holiday's. No stocks. Cant help but feel this is what trump and musk want, i.e. to have stockmarket get weaker so they can buy more. \nLook over there...(aligning with Putin dictator, Bullying zelensky, illegal firing staff, tariffs, accusing zelensky of propaganda as US fox news is known for it) whilst they shake markets up, risking world war 3 for multiple reasons. With the Supreme court in his pocket, the US is following Putins lead and becoming a dictatorship. The law is far to pliable there at this point. \nAll those voted Trump in and think he is making America great, you are DILLUSIONAL!\nHe will take you and your families down.. the young get sent to war, the old asshole sociopathic men sit by the fire protected. It took a very long time for Germany to escape the reputation after Hitler. You want the rest of the world to disdain and never trust your country and people?! Germany recovered, but it was painful healing. \nHow bout Trump sleeps out on the streets, deals with fentanyl addicted unsupported US citizens and veterans or get sent to war? Or what about his children or grandchildren?! Would he care if they were called to stand for the country if WW3 broke out, because of him? Trump truly is making a statement... he gives 2Fs about the people, totally self serving. For the capitalist bullies who love money at any cost..even blood money... non of your investments will make a difference if you have no heating, water, food, jobs, lost family members through war and crap health system... not an ounce of love, respect, compassion, respect, leadership in the US government. The World can be better. Choose better... for all that is sacred... stop the madness!!\n\nWell done Canada & Trudeau... love and support you beautiful people. ❤\nLove and Strength to the people of Ukraine around the globe. I pray for this nightmare to end in your favour. For your loved ones to be safe and protected and that you can be reunited once more. Love and praise for Zelensky...you are a phenomenal leader. May you receive the support needed to end the war.❤\nHang tight US citizens who wish a very different US .❤

All Trudeau needs to do is secure the border and lower the tariffs on America. This trade war will be over, but no. He decides to puff his chest and be defiant. Most ungrateful governor ever ?

From Angola, I’m with you Canada! Stand strong to this craziness from Trump. Add tariff to Tesla…
