Trump is trying to end a war it’s not the same thing. We don’t need Canada if you haven’t been to America then you don’t know. We can make whatever you can make and better we can grow anything and more then you can just bc of regional weather. Canada is mad bc they make a lot of money off of us and trump is changing America and getting what it’s worth. America always pays more for imports and exports , why? and yet with out American people buying y’all’s stuff you your government will fall gotta keep last and for most gotta keep Canadian politicians payed as far as I know y’all haven’t had to worry about prices in y’all’s country. For years we have been paying more for stuff that should be made here or we pay less. Plain and simple we are getting what we are worth take it or leave. It will be funny when he cuts all exports from Canada it will take a little bit but we will compensate ans there gonna with they just took the 25% little saying over here is you never know what you got till it’s gon.

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.

It's more than time for Canada to turn themself to electric Chinese car at around CAD 5K with quality comparable to Tesla and so many more affordable goods and products from diverse countries of Asia including cheaper chips, GPU, CPU, etc... with the green, affordable and available electricity in huge quantity who could place Canada at the first rank in AI development without speaking about it Geo position reducing latency, Crypto mining at the lower cost around the entire world, the world largest rear earth elements and so many more. By stopping to cooperate with a vicious country which has the philosophy of eliminating the concurrency until to collaborate for the exponential growth of each other's. It's clear that the target of the US was to force the Canada to be producing goods and service to the US consummation at a price so low that will have turn Canada in a third world country which the US could invade or exploit as it will, like they did all around the world by bombing and even committing genocide using proxy to stole the resource of so many nations around the world. So obviously they deal with Russia on how to rob the richest from Europeans nation like Ukraine as it is clear that the US is now looking to make the entire world economy fall for their own profit. Canada must lead in the fight against the American imperialisms pushing for a world embargo against the US and become at the same time one of the richest nations in the world if not the richest one. while for the US citizens to invest all their money in BTC to ensure that they will not fall down with their government and economy.

Putin is is pulling all the right levers saying all the right lines all while Donald dufus trump looking into his eye and reading lips falling for shit like a school kid trying to get a date

Endlessly doomscrolling, waiting to see the video of the bottom falling out all at once. Anxiety weighing quite heavily these days.

How about we hear him in court has everyone forget what he's done and doing to Canada and using this turbulent time to try and save his sorry ass don't fall for it if he really cared we would have had a new PM long ago and sing would've got that pension and he's stepped down and closed parliament but still spending billions

I still can't believe that we are being attacked by our best ally. The country that is supposed to represent freedom. The US administration is behaving worse than Russia. The EU and North American allies have been abandoned and assaulted. The vacating of the leadership position in the free world will be taken advantage of by other countries. How much damage has to be done?\n\nTo the Canadian government: Open maximum trade to the EU and friendly countries in Asian the short fall must be attempted to be spanned.

So this time its not a pandemic its an economical meltdown...USA short lived broke arse empire falling?

You better watch what your saying about UNITED STATES President . You don't want to look in the sky and the stars falling.

Trudeau you are a weak lying snake bending truth to your victim narrative. Trump put you on notice regarding tariffs and here we are. Do you think he is not a man of his word? Well you have now experienced that this is in fact the case first hand. You have taken from America with very little in return and these are the consequences of your woke agenda for Canada. Look at you spouting venom, dischord and anarchy from your pulpit. Trump is interested in econmic revival for America and if you are not on board you will fall by the wayside. Only smart leaders realise throwing insults at Trump will only weaken your countries position. Surely you realise Trump is one of the most persecuted people on the planet, unjustly so, and your rhetoric will fall on deaf ears in the whitehouse. They've heard all the nonsense before. But, continue throwing the insults, chuck your toys out the pram, if it makes you feel like a grownup. I don't fancy your chances though.

This is the fall of America

As an Italian American living in New York, with Italian French-Canadian cousins living in Quebec, its really upsetting to see our relationship with our closest allies fall apart due to the greed and stupidity of only a hand full of people – if you can even call them that.

Trump is actually causing the stock market to fall and he and his crooks will wait until it comes down. He'll then try to correct the tarriff's back to zero so the stock market will go up but before Trump will buy, buy, buy to increase his own stock holdings

I hate that this will fall on so many deaf ears for the people brainwashed by conservative media. CNN sucks too but I would be very surprised if this full speech showed up on Fox for any decent amount of time or without a shitload of spin before during and after

Why can’t we have a real leader like this! Instead we have a belligerent egomaniac Russian asset as president. He shouldn’t have even had 10% of the vote. Y’al knew better but didn’t vote better because of many superficial reasons, among them, sexism and racism. Now all of us Americans are losing. I’d love to see the day when we as Americans can come together as ONE & stand up against people like Trump that are harming all Americans. United we stand. Divided, ALL of us fall. Some of y’al thought it wouldn’t impact you even if his policies impacted others (and not you) so you didn’t care and voted for public enemy #1 despite all the warnings given. Now here we are. I really truly hope that America has a whole will look at ourselves in the mirror at what we’ve allowed to be, and change our ways by coming together as one country that wants to see Americans do well and be good and be able to take care of their families, regardless of race or sex, or gender, immigration status or any of the superficial barriers.

Fall of cabal.

Trump is acting destructive everywhere, where he engages. He is destroying his country because the prices in USA will go up quickly and long lasting and their stocks will fall dramatically. Inflation is USA will soar and get out of control. His policies are firing back on his own economy.\n\nCanada will have little ore none impact from these tarrifs, they will overcome this initial shock quickly and recover. They will find better partners and other ways to trade. But USA won't find anybody any more who is willing to deal with him, everybody will avoid engaging with his administration, because they are acting ruthless. Trump isn't considering the ends of his decisions and he obviously doesn't care because he is an irresponsible person without a concience. He won't be able to do harm to other countries than to his own, he only destroys USA, because they elected him and they are following him on his way so far. The opposition in USA will become louder and much more influential and Trump will lose more and more companions in his own party.

You can give an intelligent speech but if the people who need to hear you are part of a mass cult, your words fall on deaf ears. Sadly, the only people listening already agree with you.

As someone in the UK and a European its very sad and heart breaking that this is happening, can Americans see what is going on? The New World and the Old World is falling apart.

America is falling ?‍♀️?

For all you Trump??haters- while God turned my attention to Trudeau - He turned my heart to Trump?? and He won with a landslide- Trudeau is Humpty- Dumpty and what a fall he will have!!!

From Germany, great respect for Canada and Mr. Trudeau who delivered a moving speech. Also a shout out to all our American friends who do not fall for Mr. Trump's lies and his bulldozer politics. I truly hope we all come out of these trying times alive and well, both sides of the Atlantic and beyond. The only chance we have is to stand together.

While it's insane and we are ALL going to feel this pain, I pray that Canada and Mexico do not back down from this orange pos!! Make Trump fall on his fat face trying to keep his daddy Putin happy! These countries are fighting back and bringing the facts - something Musk nor Trump will do! This is embarrassing for America on so many levels!

I support Canada ? Sometimes you have to lose to win!! The Trump administration is about to fall!!! PRIDE GOETH BEFORE THE FALL AND GREAT WILL BE THAT FALL!!! HOLD ON FELLOW AMERICANS BECAUSE ITS REAL RIGHT NOW!!! LION OF JUDAH ??????

Quit calling it a war Trudeau, they just showed us that they are taking care of themselves...trump will provide americans with what they need... You however have done nothing but take from us canadians..you made our country a drug pit..just drive thru any small to bc towns and look at how many more drug addicts are wandering the streets..10x more since your new drug laws...you give our money away, and how did you get so rich when you gov. Pay heck is only a specific amount?...you soend more canadian tax payers money on a two week vacation that what two average canadian house holds make in a year...rent is outrageous, inflation has put people in the poor house, and in the very end your ego is trying to look good just so you can go off into the rest of your life in your own delusion...go away man. Why dont you support us canadians by accepting the new financial hike and get us on to making momey in different ways...quit complaining and quit trying to get us into a war...when someone puts crap on me, i dont let them own me any further, i just cut them off and get on to living by rolling up my sleeves and doing the work...

WE SALUTE U TRUDEAU!!!!! STAND UP FOR TRUTH AND UR COUNTRY....DON'T LET AMERICA BULLY U BECAUSE HER COUNTRY FALLING IN THA DUST BECAUSE THEIR CORRUPT.....?

Making a mistake by validating the BS lie via stating everything that Canada is doing against fentanyl. “Don’t wrestle with pigs, you both get dirty and the pig likes it”. \n\nDumb Americans don’t understand what 1.3 B $ border plan is, they don’t know if that is enough and you’re placing yourself in a position of 1) recognizing the problem as legitimate, and 2)“are you doing enough”. Call it for what it is, bullshit - It was never about safety and fentanyl was a lame unfounded excuse. Know your audience, don’t fall into the Trump trap and speak in simple terms.

Americans act surprised that Trump has already gone rogue…ignorance truly is bliss…so many Americans will lose their jobs because of these tariffs…Trump has yet to address the fall out of his actions… times are very scary.

The large Consolas office run by Cuomo's are head of the Empire State. They do not fall in the current USA execuative branch.

Trudeau is denying us our election. He's a corrupt liberal and a disgrace to our country. No one in Canada likes him, he's detested everywhere here. Don't fall for his bull**it

As a Brit it really sad to read the comments and see Canadians and Americans falling out. Probably our turn next

I know I will get attacked in the comments for this, but I grew up in the US watched many presidents come and go, and I have never seen the country that I live in turn so corrupt and evil in my life we have been lied to by our president. A man I did not vote for and it almost feels like it is turning into a fascist regime. I think it is time for me to leave and move to Canada because at least they know the difference between right and wrong. my family, a long time ago fled from fascist Germany and came to America because back then it was the land of the free it terrifies me to know that my family ran from that only to end up right back where it was before in the future my prayers go out to every American citizen and hope that you all rise up, right and left and independent and do what you can to get this dictator out of office. He’s only been in there not even two months and look how bad everything is already. United we stand divided, we fall.

The reason for this is Trump wants industry back in the US, and as long as people buy things from outside of the US cheaper, that's not going to happen. Thus the tariffs. That's what they're for, protectionism. Why he pretends it won't be bad for americans or that they won't be paying more for products, I don't know. Perhaps his way of preparing people for bad times. Or the wishful thinking bit he swears to. Whatever. But what sane person would build up an industry predicated on Trump being consistent and willing to stay the course? An industry that would fall apart like it's 1920 the moment tariffs end? I predict noone.\n\nI have some experience with Clark, he was an insightful man during his command in Europe. It should be concerning when he can't see a reason for these actions, for cozying up to Putin and alienating allies. There's no end goal here that is in the US' interest. Trump's cabinet is not interested in this sort of thing, they are domestic dilettantes. There is no 4D chess. So what is the deal? Is it just his anger at Zelensky for not investigating Hunter Biden during the election? It seems... a bit too much for that, despite Trump being known as extremely spiteful.

For all the people in the comments, just because he speaks clearer than some other people doesn’t mean he is right and doesn’t me he has the facts straight. Canada has slowly been falling apart with this dictator leader. Believe what ya want but this is a good thing for America

America is falling (Babylon). I stand with Canada. You have not picked this war and I support you looking for other means for your people. The Most High sees all.

Americans people, please don't fall for this scumbag, part time drama teacher's fancy words, he is one made Canada weak and vulnerable with his wako woke policies . So called progressive but admires basic dictatorship

Trudeau comes right on and accuses Trump of siding with Russia. He's just trying to distract from the true problem. Trump is trying to equalize trade between countries and convince American manufacturing companies to comeback to America and or stay in America. Russia has nothing to do with trading between countries. Don't fall for his misdirection.

Great Rom was falling, agypt was falling and Order Great civilisations. America if it goes Like that will also stand alone in the end. How dump can a Nation be ??‍♂️

Trump is a russian asset , he was recruited by the KGB in 1987. Trump has been working to destroy the United States for over 30 years. Damage the economy and the country will fall from within. Trump is a traitor.

I'm french, And i swear I will boycott everything I may buy from USA in the next 4 years and I won't go in USA neither. Donald Trump is most shameful president I've ever seen in my life. But what is mind blowing for me is how so many people can fall for all those lies and hate maga are spreading every day. People don't want to deal with facts and reality anymore. This how a civilisation is falling. Thank you to President Trudeau for speaking the truth aloud.

NO… TRUMP DID THIS NOT THE US! NOW I CAN’T NEVER GET TO NIAGARA FALLS OR EVEN TORONTO. I HATE TRUMP

In a best case scenario, DJT will rescind the tariffs on Canadian goods. In the worst case, we get even poorer. If this happened after Trump became president the first time, the economy was strong from 4 years of Obama's presidency. Then COVID happened, and for alot of folks here, they haven't recovered financially. Savings and retirement plans are gone. Rent is higher, for many it takes over 50% of their income. So in this emergency time, there's nothing to fall back on. Oh and DOGE will cut SNAP benefits, I'm sure. That's food stamps, meant for the people struggling. It's becoming more and more of Americans. \nAm I depressed? No, I lived through Reagan's presidency. I'm cautious about life, my job, commuting to work, putting food on the table. I'm gonna try growing veggies. I already eat 75% of my meals at home or taken from home-cooked meals. I'm saving as best I can.

This guy resigned and abandoned his people just like his father. The apple does not fall too far from the tree.

Does Canada have a fairly warm area that I can move to? At 82 I just want out of here as I can't bear the idea of living out the next four year with the insanity that has been heaped on our heads. If not maybe I will get lucky and drop dead so I don't have to watch the fall of America.

US, is going to fall. The US is losing credibility worldwide. Canada has a real president!

Democracy is the best system of government in existence, but it must be optimized with the Doge Digital Twin Colombia USA: leveraging all Artificial Intelligence tools to minimize corruption, prevent tragedies like those in Venezuela, Ukraine, Cuba, North Korea, and Nicaragua. Prevent such tragedies from recurring in Colombia, the USA, or any other country. Reduce the size of the government to the smallest possible level. Use KPIs to measure the efficiency of each official; any official who falls into the red zone must be immediately replaced by the one with the best KPI from a group of three. \nhttps://youtu.be/I_u990Il3iU?si=FrYkc_4ETzLk_rn7

Yes, this is tRump's stupid move, but it's at the urging of his boyfriend Put(it)in. This is EXACTLY what Russia wants. They want the entire world falling apart and tRump is simply their lapdog. Shame.

American student at a Canadian university: Thank you Canada, for speaking out. Many of us know this is wrong, and we do not blame you for the chaotic fall of the U.S. empire. I stand with Canada (and Mexico for that matter).

Trump is accelerating the fall of US empire?
