When Americans were held hostage in Iran, it was Canada our great neighbor, who came to our rescue. Always a trusted and valued partner in war and peace. 48.2% of Americans are just holding our breath until the midterm congressional elections. We are sincerely sorry for our current lapse of common sense and Integrity. Please stand by us in our time of need.

A message to Canada from an actual patriotic American: Do what you need to do. We support you. We understand you are helping us stop this scourge that is Trump.

Will you please save those of us who did not vote for this insanity?????????

Another shameful moment for us in the US.

Don't worry, Canada, most of us here in the USA are with you! We do not agree with the orange swine!! All that talk about his popularity vote is bogus! A lie, manufactured! No such truth!

I will miss my Prime Minister Trudeau. He speaks for me, and I know, many others . . . .we aren't interested in buying American goods. We aren't interested in visiting the states. We are focused, at this point, on our own economy. In the last month I have discovered a few gems, produced by local businesses within 100 miles of where I live. Healthier for my family, healthier for my economy. More expensive, yah, a little. But in the long run, it will make us a stronger economy, a stronger nation.

Dear Canadian neighbors. \n I apologize for our crazy Karen’s trump and musk. \n Please be patient. \n I think we will both come through this in the long run. \n You are so lucky to have a President who cares for ALL OF YOU. \n A REAL MAN, not a BULLY. \n This will indeed be tough times for all of us. \n God Bless God Speed\n from USA

Justin, my family and I are dismayed my our neighbors here in the US that voted for the DONALD. Can we bring our talents & wealth to Canada?? We are college educated & ready to be a part of a society with stronger values than the new America.

MAGA Trump administration are traitors to America ?? and the democratic world ? selling us all out to murderous Russia ??

Let us go sideways. Find other trading partners. We do not need trump. A totally clown. Lets go to the uk or China. Then no hurt to us

Im bawling. Thank you to all the Americans and other nations standing with us and I am ever so sorrybwe are here right now.

I am Canadian. My heart breaks for Canada. The US always being our ally, now it will become our enemy only because of one man's unjustified and irrational move. God help us!!

God help us?. I’m devastated that our government is this horrible now.

Russia and the US are going to invade Canada soon. Hard to explain, but be prepared for Canada to no longer exist as a government.

Putin's dream: Destabilize the close relationship of the US. border countries. What better first step to weaken their enemy? Putin is so much smarter than DJT. BTW, he called him Donald as speaking to an equal. Treudeau and Trump are equals.

Will the EU help Canada when the US invade?

I love Canada and Canadians. Thank you for being you! You will prevail. It’s unfortunate that our leadership, here in the US, is comprised of predatory, transactional, grifters, and a$$holes.

Woah Drake should have hired him for the not like us response..

Don't be fooled by this wimp my American friends. Trudeau is a weasel and has killed Canada. I'm not a fan of Trump but he still has seen thru this bum and we deserve what we're getting because of his neglect and Woke policies for the last 10 years. he's as corrupt as a politician can get. So please wait til we get a leader in Canada that will get us back to a REAL partner with the US. An election is gonna happen real soon that will put a Prime Minister in place that will address the concerns of both of our countries and get things back to normal.....and it won't be Mark Carney!!!!!

@ Justin Trudeau. You have hurt us the Canadian citizens since 2020. You’ve heard the whole Canadian economy. Why did your wife leave you?\nWe don’t want to hear a thing you have to say everything is crap. Kindly going into some shell.

Texan and Cold War veteran here. Canada has fought beside us in every major conflict and a number of small ones as well and has always been a good friend to the American people. I will do everything I can to support Canada and Ukraine and any other ally our current dis-administration attempts to bully. \n\nExcellent speech Mr. Prime Minister, you are what leadership and integrity look like and Canadians can be proud to call you their own. You are polite, we are not. You are loyal, we are not. You have guts, we currently do not. God keep your land glorious and free!

My heart hurts watching this. As an American, I respect and agree with Prime Minister Trudeau. Canada has been a kind and generous ally, and our current government leaders are just coming up with excuses for this stupid ass trade war. \n\nI am so sorry to all the Canadian citizens whom this negatively impacts. I hope you will show grace to those of us who voted against Trump and who continue to stand up to this tyrant.

Bravo Trudeau , we are proud of you !!!! We are very sure the Canadian Conservative party supporters are very sad at this moment but we don't care about the US supporting Canadian parties.

Some of bus American are ......unfortunately .................suckers. There is evidence that the person elected to office is actually a Russian agent recruited in 1987, identified as Krasznov. Help us to get through these next four years.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nfour years.

There is a huge opportunity for the rest of the world to lower the economic influence that the US has over us.\n\nThe other large importers of US products should get together and, where available, smash out interim tariff free trade agreements across certain products. Replace US products with alternatives from other countries.\n\nThis will improve diplomatic ties, improve the economic position of these countries and weaken US influence.

All Governor Trudy Mcblackface had to do was control his border like he was asked and to be a good neighbor. Trudy McBlackface also has 200% plus tariffs already on US products. He's going to kill Canada's economy because he's a sh!tbag. Do better Canada.

No, (PRESIDENT) TRUMP, THATS RIGHT (PRESIDENT) TRUMP is making a statement that the US will no longer be second..\nAmerica 1st.. open your eyes, he’s defending our country making it great for all of us…

How much does it cost us to be your Kevlar vest?

Okay, so US tariffs are bad and will cause financial trouble for both Americans and Canadians. Won’t Canadian Tariffs do the same thing? Furthermore, Canada will not win a Tariff war with the US. Canada’s response is not rational, nor is it in the best interest of the country. What about working with Trump to understand what it takes to remove all tariffs.

That was a real man and loving ❤️ leader l can respect ??. Inversely, that in the US, trump, is a dump, literally garbage ?.

trump is just a COMPLETE idiot .... we want CANADA as an ALLY !!! they love us & all you MAGA supporters DID THIS ! ?‍?

Drumpf's best friend is the Russian monster.he is screwing American business people,farmers,builders, and every other American citizen.Thank you for speaking the truth,his worshippers will not believe you,but the rest of us know what is truth.\n And I love Canada,God bless and protect you all.I did not vote for the orange menace,he is now trying to blame the effects of his decisions on the previous administration.

We're seeing many cases of Canadai's foreign born national truck drivers bringing trailers full of these drugs into US. They need to enact tougher enforcement and change some things.

I wish they dude is the president of US. So embarrassed to here trump speak compared with him.

Don't lecture us American' s on a damn thing! U are damn clown & don't speak with such an unworthy sense of self. Anyone who would listen this ignorant fool & worse take anything he says seriously are as stupid as he is. And all u buffoons spewing remedial like this idiot is even pimple on trumps ass! What a embarrassing weak coward! And watch ur damn tome boy when u speak of our president like u are somehow all sudden some tough guy or in his league! Smfh

This is the way you handle a Bully; don't play the Bully's game. Our corrupt government has been corrupt since the beginning of our country and has had our Troops in 22 wars and our Troops are living with half their bodies, missing limbs and other disabilities our corrupt government has betrayed them and has sat on the sidelines watching the Gangsterville Enterprise aka White House say how they want to take their benefits. I care for my bedridden brother and have been caring for him for 5 years and I have never asked our corrupt government for compensation for caring for my brother. The corrupt government has kissed the ring and has lost their testicles with those damn black dresses. It's time take them for and do their jobs. We have a Consultation that was written decades ago to save us from this government corruption, it's time to stop the Shit Show and get our country back; we will be destroyed because Evil, Greed and Revenge never wins. United we stand and in God we trust amen ❤??

I know this is goin g to be tough on us but I will not buy this month.

Im so outraged for the half of us who didn't want him for president .

No our government is doing this to us Canada. Just secure the border and stop sending fentanol to the states

As an American I am aghast at Donald Trump. I hope the world takes us back in 4 years.

We don't want this either. Half of us did not vote for him. We are heartbroken and angry and fearful for the future. We are so sorry. \nGod help us all.

Hey …can you address the port tax on boats transporting goods. 1.5 million $ when a boat delivers goods through US ports if the boat carrying the goods was built in China. What about américain transport companies using china built boats ? Hope my country cuts your electricity. Than maybe Americans will wake up to the global mess they let this clown show create.

Bring the jobs back to America. Canada needs us more then we need them

No its simple, you take as much as you sell. Simple financial mathmatics.\nIm sure the US can sustain not having canadian products.\nHere in the uk we dont want your goods if you dint buy ours.

trump doesn't care, he duped his followers and now hes free to plunder the us and fill his rich friends and families pockets

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

If I didn't have commitments and family here in the US, I'd move to Canada

As an American US veteran, I love this President. Go Canada. We love you ❤️❤️❤️

I speak as a Californian. I am so, so terribly sorry, Canada. I never voted for tRump, ever. I hate him in every way. This is all so heartbreaking. ?? Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, for standing up for your entire country. Our president is destroying America and handing us over to Russia. ? I stand with Canafa, Ukraine, Mexico and democracies of the world.

Wow. This is so crazy . Unfortunately us common peeps r going to pay the price .. \n\nTyvm dump..
