Begun the trade war has

What any country with sense needs to do now is get a trade delegation together and visit these countries as there is now an opportunity for everyone to shift trade to a more reliable partner. It happened with Putin. Any country who can use trade suddenly as a punishment is not reliable. It is imperative for survival.

Kick the US out of the 5 eyes, then free trade and further integration amongst the remaining 4.

There are so many countries that are willing to trade with the US and will replace Canada and Mexico.Why do you think Trump didnt put tariffs on Europe straight away?\nThe small European countries are the winners and their trade with the USA will increase dramatically. And the products will still be chealer than those from Canada.

We must trade and help Canada and Mexico. Stop trading with USA and ban X.

Trump started the trade war to redirect the attention from the aviation tragedies that he caused to the tariffs. \nPlease do not forget to keep the finger on the first killings of his second term. \nInformation about his role in the tragedies was coming out ,when he suddenly initiated the trade war.

The US has been running a trade deficit with Mexico, China, and Canada for almost two decades now—Canada only makes up 6% of all US imports while the US makes up 63% of all Canadian imports.\n\nCanada will have to find more trade partners besides the US if it doesn't want its consumers paying 25% more for US goods, most of which are mechanical machinery, automotive parts and vehicles, minerals, medical equipment, energy products, and consumer goods.

?CAN can't escape... check timeline .. \nRight after CAN announced business team to visit China for more trade .... \n----> Huawei CF0 drama

Wasn’t Canada responsible for the creation of war crimes in WWI or something to that effect? Can we create trade war crimes 100 years later? ??

Neither Mexico nor Canada can win a trade war with the United States.

Canada and Mexico can trade with the rest of the world!

It will only make both Canada and Mexico to trade with other countries, while the USA starts being isolated from other countries more and more. In the end it's only gonna be the ordinary people who's gonna suffer

When will people realize this is the way to force American business back into making things in America again. \nDoes any American complaining about this actually understand the trade inequity the USA did to itself with NAFTA and with our other current trade agreements? If you live in USA it truly isn’t an equil trade scenario, and was intended to boost our neighbors economy back in the 90’s….. in 2025 it’s just too detrimental and one sided in a bad way to continue allowing the same things/services to be done cheaper outside the USA based upon current import/export terms.\nThe old but current trade agreements benefit ALL at the USA’s expense. It’s not a difficult thing to grasp, it’s just not equil or fair, because Canada and Mexico (and south) benefit more at the expense to the USA… Americans just want it to be fair for us too. \nThe ERA of everyone sucking on the tit of America is over, because the American public is more than over it..

The US has a trade deficit around $1 TRILLION. So, this isn't anything personal against Canada; I think Trump wants to impose tariffs on ALL imports to encourage domestic manufacturing and flip the trade deficit. He's just using situations of importance to also gain political leverage.

So we are getting into a trade war because America wants Canada/Mexico to fix their immigration system, and thats too much of an ask?

A cousin in NY is having his 1st super-bowl party. I told'm to forget it & go to his dad's house & watch it. He's got a generator,.. & Canada might decide to cut off all electrical power to the mid-west, New England & NY, a couple seconds after the opening kick off in N.O.! You don't need our resources Mr. pres? Then do without. You don't need the closest most secure trading route you'll ever have, & for unlimited natural resources. OK! There's a big world to trade with.

No. We’re not buying Mexico or making it our 51st state. But we might trade it to Denmark for Greenland.

When the United States has a trade advantage, it will sign a contract with you. But when American trade is not in an advantage, it will choose to punish you and ignore the previous contract.?

Typical Americans and Trump. Sign a free trade agreement and then when you feel like it just violate it for your own interest. They only play by their own rules. If Canada violated the agreement they would all over it. A while back they tried to nail Canada with 4 billion in softwood lumber tariffs in that they claimed Canada violated the free trade agreement, which they did not. The arbitrary trade council which oversees both countries ordered the USA to pay back Canada the 4 billion. The USA never did. Trump claims Canada treats them unfairly yet they are the ones who violate the agreements. They are the poor trading partner. Canada should trim the exports to the USA significantly and find alternatives. Just cut out the corrupt Americans led by a convicted criminal.

Canada and Mexico should trade only with each other ???. that will be the result of whats happening. Mexico can grow more foods than america and Canada can provide everything that the US does.

We need a trade agreement between Canada, Mexica, Asia and Europa.

Great they still loose the trade war, go Trump make America great again

Canada should invite China to build cars in Canada and arrange a trade deal.

Mexico and Canada imposing tariffs on the US is not going to hurt us like they think. We have more ships and planes and are able to move more goods faster to other countries who will buy. Not to mention the fact that Mexico and Canada were never fair to us in trading. In the end they will have hurt themselves way more then the US. Why do you think Trump has done this and most of us are not worried.

Canada just needs to stop trading with USA, trade with Mexico and China!

Mexico and Canada won't survive trade wars with the US. They'll fold in a matter of months.

Europe is ready to trade with Canada

American here. Please punish Trump for starting a trade war. He's already off to a rocky start and if prices go further up, it will decrease his popularity and put pressure on Republicans.

Turdeau is such an immature adolescent; he is woefully ignorant that a country with a positive trade balance can NEVER win a tariff war. Same with Mexico. But sure, if Turdeau and Scheinbaum want to tank their economies, go right ahead.

As a Canadian, I can tell you that we make great friends and trading partners but if you think your can bully us, you've made a very bad mistake. We will remember and we're going to make this hurt.

It’s time for Canada and Mexico and China trade with each other and exclude USA.

Way to start an uncalled for trade war, Trumpy.

We can trade with other countries, and we won't need the US, and trump can shove it

Canada, Mexico, the UK and EU should negotiate their own free trade agreement.

Yeap I buy absolutely nothing from Canada I can’t get from somewhere else. It’s about time we stop adhering to unbalanced trade agreements with our so called friends and if they rather take advantage of us rather than make a more fair deal then let’s do it. Let’s see if we really need Canadian goods to survive so bad we need to trade and a deficit. But no being mad if we find out we don’t need you at all.

Mexico trade is more than 1 million a second ! Think about that ? ❤

Good luck with not trading as much with the worlds greatest economy, which you share borders with.

We are proud to have Prime Minister Trudeau lead the charge against the bombastic Trump trade war. It is unlikely that our MAGA Conservative leader, Pierre Poilieve, currently supported by Elon Muskrat and many of Trump's cronies, could ever deal with a trade war that would defend Canada.

Where is so called WTO the protector of free and fair trade. Seems like western puppet organisation won’t get involved seeing two of its own biting each other.

Let’s see ? the US doesn’t need your milk, cheese, oil, lumber, cars really which is up to US manufacturers to open manufacturing in Detroit again…..maple syrup yes but I think we can get that somewhere else in the US too.\n\nCanada depends on the US for 75% of its gross GDP. It also costs the US $200 billion a year to continue trading with Canada. Will see who blinks.\n\nMX, good luck. Will see how many months before we hear a large Ugh..

Canada, Mexico and China have taken advantage of the US by sending $Billions more into the US than the US sent to them. Not fair for them to treat the US in this way. The US wants FAIR trade where both sides send the same amount to each other.

We will do what is best for us now. Trade on an equal level no more super leveled on Canadas side.

Justin Trudeau's border plan of 1.3 billion over six to ten years is a joke! Tariffs on America after several US administrations tried to work with Canadian governments to stop provocations in trade, border security, immigration, and many other issues, only to fall on deaf ears or passive responses, not to mention Trudeau's derogatory comments about Trump being a racist. At the same time, Trudeau was caught having a history of wearing racist blackface. Not wise! \n\nFor some odd reason, Trudeau thought it was also wise to mock the American President, Donald Trump, with other European leaders while attending a meeting in the UK at Buckingham Palace, which clearly invited bad blood between the two. Not to mention his missteps while traveling in Europe and meeting with Kamala. He also increasingly chose to snuggle up to China. However, America has provided Canada with favorable trading relations and high-cost subsidies in the form of military and territorial security for decades. That clearly was a slap in the face and wasn't very smart! You had to figure some American president would ultimately say enough!\n\nAmerica has supported, defended, and offset the national defense costs of European nations for over seventy years, while EU countries and their leaders have routinely mocked and ridiculed Americans. Is it really classy to slap the face of someone who protects and supports you and your quality of life? No, it's not! Tariffs on EU products are likely coming soon, and reduced defensive support for Europe means they will have to pay more taxes for their defense and goods.

Canada and Mexico should trade directly with each other via marine shipping and bypasses the US altogether! Just saying

Let the trade war begin . USA 264 million barrels of oil reserves vs Canadian 167 million barrels

Trump is violating the trade agreement he himself put in place the last time he was in office. That is how solid his word is. He will violate anything to try and get his way.....ask Jean Carroll....she will tell you about being violated by Trump.

US should be left alone and trade among themselves, European countries, China and other Asian countries can work together for the better of their countries!!
