This will bring Canada closer to Asia. Who has the most products with the lowest cost and who needs energy more the US does?

Trump's lifelong love for tariffs is not economically driven but to wield power. In most power plays in the private sector he got away with it and was able to stiff subcontractors and business partners with less resources and less criminal energy than himself. I hope other countries won't budge and give from the start the right answer to this wannabe fascist power drunken criminal.

canadian here - we should put tariffs on energy only, the tariffs on everything else will just hurt Canadians, if our dollar is crappy Americans will spend money here if there are no tariffs.

US tariff 25% for everything except 10% for energy. Canada only tariff about 150 B among 800 billion us import. Is this a huge retaliation.

Canada buy more products from USA than China,Japan,UK,France combined, Canada is the major supplier of energy to USA

Trudeau has been on his farewell tour while he still has access to the treasury rather than dealing with this.\nBut he has shown a tendency to run away from problems rather than tackling them so this is par for the course.\n\nHe is a lame duck, who will be replaced by an equally weak (and unelected !) 'leader' on March 9th, then whether or not the government falls depends on yet another weak leader, this time of one of the opposition parties.\n\nAs Canada and Mexico diversify their trade networks to make up for this, the US will be pushed into isolation. Here in Canada, the world is hungry for our energy and willing to pay full value, not the $14/bbl discount the US currently enjoys.\n\nHope it was worth it.

Canadian here. stop selling resources and energy to usa and start charging every american trying to cross the boarder 10k per person just for entry into Canada

Canada should increase tarifs on oil and energy exported to the USA. With 25%. That would really hurt the bully.

Why does Canada bother with Tariffs on US goods?\nCost and CO2 pressures demand that Canada review its costs situation with energy and oil into the USA.\nMany costs have risen and they need to be passed on in a per mega Watt and Mega Barrel basis.\nFurthermore. Canada must step up its electrical and oil supply system maintenance to include twice daily stoppages to US bound energy so that system safety and performance is controlled.\nNext.\nCanada has a clear obligation to the USA to prevent a Russia/EU dependency occurring. So further stoppages to service delivery require urgent implementation.\nDo not worry. Emperor Trump will not sue. The US Lawyers know now they will not be paid by Trump.

According to google Canada's experts to Usa were 590billion dollars in 2023 and president trump put a %25 tariff for all of it excluding energy.\nNow Canada responded with 30 billion tariff with same rate things such as florida orange juice, tennessee whiskey ... and planning to put another 120billion worth of goods of Usa don't lift the tariffs in 21 days. In any way from these numbers, it looks like Usa is going to rip off canada a lot.\n\nReal response should have been %25 tariff to all usa goods without exception until they lift their tariffs!

This is the Copilot AI answer to this matter- The 25% tariff imposed by Canada on U.S. goods could lead to significant job losses in the U.S. economy. While exact estimates vary, some analyses suggest that the U.S. could lose up to 1.6 million jobs due to the combined effects of higher prices, reduced exports, and supply chain disruptions... This would be a substantial impact, affecting various industries, particularly those heavily integrated with Canadian markets, such as automotive, agriculture, and energy.

What else can he do? It's a poor tactic but its all we got. If we had options like Northern gateway or pipelines opened to the maritimes refineries we would have more markets to sell our energy but Fibrals want Canada to lead a Green revolution and tank our own economy without the help of Trump.

Hold them back..no this energy dont look right ,???What happen tk them

Take all that energy to your government and fix your country.

Go home and use this energy to fix your own country

They should be exerting this much energy into their own countries to dethrone their dictatorship government and elect officials that will be for the people in their country raise up their flag and be a part of their country

Obviously all these people from Bobo suelo did not know about the news about not coming to America can you imagine the way they're still coming how overly swamped we would have been when you offer free with everything free house free car free health free medical you're going to get a lot of blood suckers coming to our country because they want all that free stuff I don't want to pay for it anymore go back to your own country unbelievable that they have that kind of energy when they need to put that energy in their own countries

It is hard to even believe the world has come to such a ridiculous, immoral place... I do not understand how people on the news can even discuss these things with a straight face..... Our president is wealthy.He is powerful.He does not have to do anything for anyone .. He is putting his tom energy, an effort and to our country out of the love of God add all of those that are intimidated for no reason by him misunderstand that God illuminates helm and others do not even understand why they hate him.... God does shine through people add. I can promise I have the same hate and people try to destroy me.And I am just a simple person... God is good and I am so happy and evidently, I shine way too bright, also, because my joy in the lord illuminates from me... When I go into a store to use the restroom, and the people working in there has the ability by just looking at me to call 911 and tell them I stole... Which the surveillance never lies..\nYou know something about me was so bothersome to those ladies they couldn't help themselves... But I did.However, receive massive legal problems for making up lies and wasting all fifteen cop cars of cops, they wasted it.... So people need to understand those that shine with God's glory are hated by those that don't serve God... People hate me when I am and giving to them. So it makes all the scents in the world why Trump goes through what he does.. the ones that our most amazing to me are those of the view.... They are so in awe of him.They cannot stop talking about him every day... And I do not even understand how ignorant they or because they are truly in awe of him, they can't manage themselves.... If people would just choose love and support our own president in our country, it would be amazing..\n. I'll bet the united states is the only country that has so much hate for our own people and president... why not just choose to wait and see what happens?Hoping for the best... That man tells us, uh, every time he speaks the most wonderful news we have ever heard... It is obvious by all of the people unable to handle themselves because of his amazing everything... Whoopi Goldberg is the most evil bully that lies like a dog. They let on tv

I understand them wanting to come here,bbbuutttttt... How about ..take that energy and put it all back into your OWN country and make it to where you WANT to stay..

Those who are constantly adding strain to the U.S. economy, jobs, infrastructure, schools, social security, civil workers, health care, resources, water, power, energy, and crime. I can't imagine how many federal judges and fellow legal representatives America needs to hire for everyone of these illegals. \nSecondly, they must respect the country, is no country on earth with such open boarder policy. Then, the result as you see, 20% of Americans are homeless, living under harsh means. No one can afford Marriage no more. Housing is nearly about half a million dollar for just a house. Food is hell high!!! Stop it right now. Turn back and move on where you came from. And never come back!

Imagine if they put this much energy into their country!

Feel sad watching people cry. But doing things the right way always wins. Hope they find the energy and strength to heal themselves.

We went through this 8 years ago! These people save lives and defend our citizens.. The new administration's silly arguments are wasting time, money, and energy (AGAIN) and it's insulting to the people who serve this country... Just another tactic to distract us

Why are you wasting your time CNN with this kind of non sense? Transgender seriously??? In military seriously?? Other countries are watching and laughing at you. CNN you should have realized this won’t work for America and you are still on the same path. They are only two Genders, male and female ( we have figured this out many years ago and we are done here )\n\nLet’s put our energy and focus on things that need to be figured out. God bless America and Trump !

Put some of that energy into something productive in your homeland….

Dood I’m sorry but fukem. Do it legally like a normal person. Better yet take that energy amd put it into fixing your own country. We got enough problems of our own. Duh

Why cant they use this energy to demand change in thier own place

How about you redirect that energy and unity towards your own governments. You might be proud of yourselves someday.

Why don't they fight and use this energy to change their country ..??‍♀️..

Won't they take all that energy and make their own country great!!?

Makes me feel sorry for the families who were lied to and led to our doorstep. All that wasted time and energy to get to a shut door. Shame on whomever lied and led them here.

Why can't they use that energy to revolt in their own country and have a revolution? Make their own country great.

If these people showed this much determination to find themselves something into there own country they wouldn't need to come here. We are trying to make our own country better for Americans and they should carry the same energy within their own borders

I don’t feel sorry for them, why not use all their energy they’re showing here to go fix their own country’s?

Go back home and fight your fake ass president with all that energy

The amount of energy expended to gain illegal entry into the US would be better used to change their country of origin.

Criminals coming to live on welfare, shoplifting and drug dealing. If you have so much energy, us it to fix your home country!

Imagine if they were willing to spend this much energy and willing to sacrifice their lives to change their own govt vs trying to invade another country and becoming their burden.

I agree, why don't they rise against their own nations as a free people and take back their countries!!! They obviouslt have desires to elevate their lives in some way, we americans had to fight for our country and it wasn't exactlt easy, these people are weak and pathetic for running away from their problems only to bring our country more problems that we can't deal with ourselves, I say we just hand them all a surplus of guns and a campaign plan to take back their own country lol, as much as I hate seeing any human suffer aside from rapists and murderers and child sex abusers, we in America have too many problems ourselves, and I was always told if you can't fix yourself, or love yourself how can you ever hope to be and good for anyone else, and that rings so true with everything, these people need to stand on their own 2 feet and fight against whatever tyranny they have and become a free people, I know if they did that someday they would probably succeed, and perhaos if they did start fighting for their freedom and trying to take back their country, we Americans might help them succeed in those endeavors some way or another...Who knows, these people need to rush their own governments and plead with them or overtake them, they can bum rush our borders I see no reason why they're not capable of doing the same in their own country, massive numbers beats out a shaggy old military and corrupt government any day everytime, yes many lives lost, but the sounds of trumpets for victort will ring out loudly on the end, and the people can finally have the lives and country they desire, we ain't it right now folks so turn back around and take all this border crossing energy to fight against your own establishments

Nah, Americans voted. The free ride is over mfers. If your country is so shit, take all that energy and make it better. There are more of you than them. Yea people gonna die. But it's about making your county better for your kids. Get tha f outta here with this crap. America didn't get where it's at from hand outs when it started. We fought to have what we have.

Use THIS EXACT energy to CHANGE YOUR CORRUPTED & crazy government and cart3l filled homeland. I don't understand why they DON'T. Fight for that country you guys come here and proudly WAVE those flags in our faces.\n\n\nYou wave the damn flags and BRAG about HOW GREAT IT IS THERE, but refuse to be/stay/ improve there. Make it make FCKN sense \n\n? ?‍?

Why can’t these millions of people use that energy to fix their own country? I don’t get it.

Columbia, like most of South America, is about to build a lot stronger ties with China, where they will get cheap goods, renewable energy infrastructure, and affordable EVs.

LMAO what a clown. Get ready for more expensive coffee and anything else coming from Colombia.\nRemember, Columbia does not pay the tariff, WE DO. Every product that Americans use that contains\ncaffeine will now go up in price so that importers can recoup the tariff the AMERICAN company had\nto pay to import it. So, your Starbucks coffee will go up, ground coffee, instant coffee, energy drinks, etc.\nwill ALL GO UP IN PRICE.\n\nThe Orange Traitor sticking it to Americans once again. He grifted off of MAGA for years and they\nvoted him back in. He's constantly signing illegal and unconstitutional executive orders, all of which\nare or will be challenged in court. And now he begins his dumbass tariff wars to skyrocket prices and\ninflation in THIS country.\n\nHey MAGA, when are you going to figure out this criminal president doesn't give a f*** about you. He \ndoesn't need your vote anymore, and he's a lame duck president. He's gone insane trying to use \nbully tactics to enact his racist immigration ideas. He's destroying the immigrant workforce in \nAmerica. Gas prices up, food prices up. Inflation up already. Violence up already. THIS is what you\nvoted for.

HEY TRUMP: Instead of starting up trouble with yet another country, try bringing down the price of eggs, milk, meat ,bread, housing costs, energy bills, etc. here at home!

All the energy that is going to deporting people. Hopefully someone will do the cost-benefit. Seems like a major waste of time. Imagine if the Border Bill had been passed in 2024 and by now we could have had this all under organized control without all of this spending so much money, time and effort in rounding people up and deporting them. Add to all of that the cost of tariffs that Trump is putting on Columbia and I expect others in the coming weeks and months. What a waste. Trump also not getting this whole thing organized which is the major direction we have to go in the final analysis.

Coffee gonna be more expensive, then switch to energy drinks liberals. Stop crying about your stupid Starbucks. You guys cry about the dumbest things.

GO FIX YOUR OWN COUNTRY, why do you expect us to fix things for you. ! USE THAT ENERGY TO MAKE RIGHTS IN YOUR LIFE And go home.

I'm sorry but go put this much energy and effort into their own country! They do not deserve to just be let in what so ever, they're going to push their luck and when bad shit starts happening due to their lack of respect etc don't be surprised! What I really want to say I'm not posting because it'll sound way to cruel, but enough is enough!

Great energy to survive…. Go back to your country and storm your Bad government out of office.
