Trump is a bully. He knows that Canada is vulnerable. Trump wants the Auto industry in Canada moved to the U.S.. This will increase the cost of vehicles in the U.S. Trump does not care. If he can harm Canada he will be pleased. He wants to control Canada.. Canada is guilty of not arranging an alternative to the Keystone pipeline. The U.S. refineries need the Canadian heavy oil. If Canada had created pipelines to Vancouver they would be in a better position but as it is Trump wins.

And no need for a teleprompt, a lacky or a golf cart...

You realize Canada needs us, we do not need them. This is almost comical.

Decades of zombie programming from Fox hypnotized our worse half to believe black is white and down is up. They now somehow believe obviously damaging actions from their low-tone, smooth-brained, moronic orange god are good. We're obviously lining up to Russian wants and not our people. It's wild how dumb many of our people are. Those of us that are sane hear you, Justin. Maybe we'll see the US come to it's senses, but for now, by all means, do what you need to do.

The orange turd is not smart . He's the perfect example on why we shouldn't have any debate on abortion. Him and his republican thugs need to go.

We need a Trudeau, what do we get? A toolmakers son, wetter than a lettuce and a globalist coward.

American don’t need Canada. You need us more than we need you. American needs to stop giving taxpayer money to these other countries.

Can Trump Become a Dictator Like Putin? \nTrump has authoritarian tendencies, but turning the U.S. into a full dictatorship like Putin’s Russia would be extremely difficult. Here’s why: \n1⃣ The U.S. Has Strong Institutional Barriers \nUnlike Russia, where Putin gradually dismantled democracy, the U.S. has checks and balances (Congress, courts, states, the military). \nTrump tried to challenge the system, but courts often ruled against him, showing that he doesn’t have full control. \nTo become a true dictator, he would need to take over the judicial system, military, and elections—none of which are fully in his hands. \n? Example: \nTrump lost multiple court cases on election fraud claims, proving he does not yet have absolute control. \n2⃣ He Lacks Full Control Over the Military & Law Enforcement \nPutin controls the Russian military and secret police, allowing him to silence opposition. \nIn the U.S., the military swears loyalty to the Constitution, not the president. \nTrump tried to use the military against protesters, but military leaders refused, signaling that they wouldn’t blindly follow him. \n? Example: \nOn Jan 6, 2021, Trump encouraged an attack on the Capitol, but the military did not intervene on his behalf. \n3⃣ American Democracy is Deeply Embedded in Culture \nUnlike Russia, where people are used to strongmen leaders, Americans are culturally resistant to dictatorship. \nU.S. citizens, journalists, and activists openly resist government overreach, making it harder for an authoritarian to rise. \nFree press and independent media make it difficult to spread unchecked propaganda the way Putin does in Russia. \n? Example: \nTrump was impeached twice, showing that Congress still holds power over the president. \n4⃣ Trump’s Path to Dictatorship Would Require More Control Over Elections \nPutin rigged elections, eliminated opponents, and rewrote laws to stay in power. \nTrump has tried to change voting laws and delegitimize elections, but the system still blocked him. \nIf Trump could fully control elections, he could remove opposition and rule indefinitely. \n? Example: \nHe’s trying to install loyalists in key election positions for 2024, but this does not guarantee full control. \n5⃣ Could He Still Try? Yes. Could He Succeed? Unlikely (For Now). \n✔ Trump has authoritarian instincts and wants more power. \n✔ He is trying to weaken institutions to increase control. \n✔ But the U.S. system makes dictatorship much harder than in Russia. \n✔ Unless he completely controls elections, the courts, and the military, he cannot rule like Putin.

??we don't need anything from canada but Canada needs united states ??watch your mouth bro..?

Jesus, it feels like Trump has been in power for a year, is this how he intends to make America great again? Now tyranny no longer needs to be camouflaged, diplomacy being replaced by exacerbated supremacy.

Canada, please intensify the relationship with the EU and UK! We need to unite against our former ally the US. We love Canada over here. Justin, I promise to buy maple sirup once week. Thank you.

Trum is treasure hunter, he is a good bisnismen not political player. If u give trum investmen, u will get good treatmen from trum. U need learn from india.

Dear Americans, you really don’t need any friends on this planet?

Trump only cares about himself and his billionaire oligarchs...unlike you who care about the people of Canada, trump does not care, our well being and ability to survive his schemes, taking our tax dollars for his rich friends, do what you must to protect your good people and just come back with humanitarian help for any remaining needs Americans once trump is eliminated!! Go Canada, take care of yourselves at any cost. 49.5% of idiot Americans voted for this situation, so they need to suffer trumps rather before they ta k è action to stop him!

We don't need your products Trudeau. You have been charging tariffs on our products for years. So don't act like this is knew. ?

Most of us know what our government is doing and we hate it. He’s an evil man and he needs to be dealt with.

I want to move to Canada. Australia lacks leadership—we truly need a leader like Justin Trudeau.

WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW MORE THAN EVER IS TO GET RID OF CHUMP \n\nTHE GOP, CHUMP, MAGTARDS AND ELON WILL BE FLYING THEIR RUSSIAN FLAGS HIGH TONIGHT BECAUSE THEY AIN'T AMERICAN ?

ValiDon TrumpTin Needs to GO! DIRECT TO JAIL!!

America has always done stuff like this need an excuse for some type of thing that makes us rich, so stupid, manifest destiny in which we learn in school, its fucked up, we just need stability. If we teach policemen to calm the situation down why are we doing this. I'm just a kid though so what do I know

Canada has excellent whisky, they don’t need bourbon from Kentucky ?

Trump needs to go!!!! WTF

Canada needs to keep Trudeau at the helm!!

This just shows you how desperate and scared Canada is. We don’t need anything from Canada. This just clearly shows that without America Canada is nothing.

Little castro needs to stfu hes a left wing corrupt pos Canadians would be smart to look into how much money he gets back

We need a coup in USA. Dump Trump

Where was he when we needed him years ago

Oh Canada ??, strong and free, our country is already great and the best in the world. Hopefully, the USA will be great again someday but I think they need a new leader ,just saying.

trudeau the best...trumps third party interference is not necessary...team trump needs to go on a diet...trumps security should be working at the borders and in the communities to remove dangerous substances and get them the meds they need....team trump are clearly terrorists....demand a re election...\nthanks for the report...

Trump supports a dictator who lets children and babies die and wants to wipe out an entire country. He is opposing all of his allies for Putin. Putin will get money again. He is sacrificing parts of Ukraine and Putin has no need to fear punishment. Many countries were allies of the USA. We fully supported the USA after September 11th. People in the EU also died for you! I liked the USA very much, I spent my vacation there but I will not do that anymore, I will no longer buy American products. A dictator is being supported here and all our help to Ukraine for the past 3. years will be wasted! Trump will also restructure the USA so that he is the only king and no one controls him anymore. He want rich russians oligarch in the USA...That is how I think and feel... he s like Biff in back to the future when he owns all...From Germany! Thank You Canada❤.. \n\nI send love and recognition to every US American who did not vote for this president and who is for democracy and human rights. ❤️

What the hell is this country coming to? I am a proud Native American but I am embarrassed to be called an American right now. This has to stop. We need adults to jump in and end this nightmare. And end it before it is too late. We are going to lose our closest allies then what will we have left?

I think Trudeau is the only one Canadian guilty of this problem. A French official disguised as a religious man was involved in drug trafficking with the Miami baggage handlers. He even commissioned the baggage handler to commit domestic terrorism for the benefit of France. Air Force pilots died as kamikazes to destroy the drugs while CLEANTOWN prevented the FBI from raiding Arkansas as usual under the pretext of religion. The worst thing is that this pretext did not prevent women and children from being burned in the Davidians as the ASOVs do in Ukraine. Submitting to the French government when they are going to have an import tax is allowing French products to pass through Canada to avoid paying tax. To be sure that this does not happen, they do not need a vassal of France who follows the liars, and this is not a hypothesis, it is a fact that a Canadian, either disguised customs, or director of 2 wheels, can confirm not the arrest of the baggage handler who traced the trail but the domestic HATRED of these so-called gentry French, the friend of the haters of the KKK of France is not a quality of security and alliance against hatred and sure that the taxe will be apply to the hatred.

We don’t need Canadas products

Trudeau is finally listening to his people? Why wait until you've resigned to become the man we needed for the last 9 years!?

We don’t need any of your resources. We literally can get everything in our own country. You have be taking advantage of us with your significantly High tariffs and when we ask for a more fair deal this is how you treat us.

Someone needs to remind Governor blackface he only has about 2 weeks and he's out

Agrees with him on everything except for fentanyl. \nAs a disabled person with a chronic illness I am 100% reliant on fentanyl which is more efficient than morphine with less side effects and I may as well kill myself now if they 'remove it from the face of the earth '. \nIt's not always used illegally but those of us who need it to survive and get by day to day are victimised every time a drug addiction uses this

With a rapist mentality President Trump is manufacturing consent by suffocating Canada’s economy. If submission through economic means doesn’t work, need we look further than Putin‘s handbook to understand what’s next?

As a Canadian this lying fraud drama teacher (look up why he lost his job) needs to be removed from office. Call an election and stop your pretend tough guy act. Stop sending our money to your money laundering friends. The real losers are Canadians our economy has been destroyed by this fraud.

All the “I stand with Canada” clowns in the comments are either ignorant or just as weak as Trudeau. You’re standing with a leader who crippled his own economy, pushed insane carbon taxes, and sold out to China now crying because the U.S. won’t play along. News flash: Trudeau doesn’t care about you or Canada, he just needs a scapegoat for his failures. Standing with Canada? More like standing with a sinking ship while cheering on the captain who drilled the holes.

Lol we need nothing from Canada

thought this fruitloop was resigning a month ago. LOL. Also dont need you, Mr Blackface instructing me on how to think about anything.

NO WEE DON’T NEED ANOTHER CALIFORNIA…..!..PLEASE !

As an American, did that weasel Trudeau just threaten us?! Um, he better backstep while he still has time. Canada has NO product that we Americans cannot replace with an American made one in a matter of months. Fertilizer is an easy one, Our farmers just need to go back to using natural animal/yuman waste which is ecactly what used to be done. It even saves farmers billions $ because they create a use for waste they now pay to have to process for removal. Lumber and products are also an easy fix. We Americans have millions of acres of timber that actually NEEDS regular harvest to reduce the forest fires that plague us yearly. The list goes on, and not a single item cannot be MADE IN AMERICA that we currently get from Canada.

Remind me again why Trudeau was forced to resign? Even NY Times investigative journalists recently explained how NAFTA worked against US interests and killed so much of our industry decades ago; almost the opposite of what was intended. Trade needs to be reformed across the board. It's also insulting the way other world leaders are now speaking directly to the American Public and lying to them as if they have our best interest in mind. World leaders are elected to defend the interests of their own people, many times they just look out for their own personal interest, but they are definitely not looking out for American interest. It is up to us. The world stage is a complicated transaction of this for that. That's life. Have you all forgot playing United Nations in high school? Trade needs to be renegotiated from significantly benefiting every other country but USA. Trump is trying to do that.

No one needs Canadian Vegetable fats, cereals and distillation products. Build your own country, internet and whatever. Everyone knows Canada is boring and pointless.They should replace Canadians with our gang members put them back in check.

I'm an American embarrassed of this administration. Just give us all of the tarrifs ? this trade war needs to end.

MUSK HAS TAKEN OVER AMERICAN......AN ANTI CHRIST....A DESTROYER..... HE NEEDS THE CALM PASTEURS OF HEAVEN AND TRUMPUS WITH HIM, TO SCRUB HIS BACK.

Honestly the government needs to rehab-prison those who overdose. They are incapable of caring for themselves so it must be done that these people have a guardian or someone who oversees the

As an American, I stand with Canada, Mexico, and the Ukraine. Donald is a wanna-be dictator and needs to be impeached immediately.
