As an American, I fully support whatever you need to do Canada, I know it's not your fault you're in this position, I know it's our own country to blame. I didn't vote for the felon, and I think it's terrible that a narcissistic sexual abusive multi convicted felon was even allowed to become president, I'm disappointed in my country.

Yeah, i don't believe anything this guy says. He went from tariffs to fentanyl???? I've never heard of Canada stopping the surge of fentanyl. I'm pretty sure it's still a huge problem.

I'm not Canadian but I love Canada. Awesome people, awesome country. I'm 100% on your side. Trudeau rocks - he's smart, intelligent and honest. Please keep him as PM. Come to Europe, come to Australia & NZ. We love you guys, The tariffs are outrageous and disgusting and total kudos for standing up to the bully.

I'm not sure that will work. The U.S. economy is vastly stronger and more established—just consider the military alone, without even going further. So, if there’s a clear winner, I don’t believe it would be Canada. Canada has been facing economic challenges even before this announcement, though few paid attention. Just look at the streets of Vancouver—set aside the media and propaganda!

I'm in the middle east. My mom was Canadian born and my dad American. I support Canada. Trump is mad cuz he can't take over Canada as the 51st state. Canada has a secure border. The border crisis is BS.\n\nThe things that you import from the US, import from UK, Australia, France etc.\n\nThis is what the country I live has done. You find very few US products now. Most imports are coming in from the UK, Australia, France, Greece etc.

I'm American, I'm with you Canada ??

I’m Japanese. I was deeply moved. Go Canada! We stand with you!

My respects Canada! My respects Trudeau! I am an American, but I support Canada. Trump is the worst and most shitty president ever in American history. I'm simply shocked that this criminal was brought back to power, obviously by those who just want to destroy America.

As a European, I support Canada 100%. I can't understand how educated people voted such a disaster into office not once, but twice. Basic economics can be grasped without the need for a college degree. I'm wondering why your tuition is so high. Your economy is set to collapse. America, you are in for a plunge into disaster.

Thank you Prime Minister for being a leader as opposed to what we have in America, a divider and felon. I'm sick over the current administration. I'm sorry Canada.

I have a question Canada has got the increase, Europe is next probably excluding Russia, but all these tariffs increase, is the rest of the world next, by rest of the world excluding, China which we know what the US response is. I'm talking about Australia, Japan, The Middle East , UAE, Qatar Saudi Arabia etc etc. Are we next?

Massive respect from Australia ?? ohh boy Trudeau got Frumpy by the ghoulies lol ? ???Go Canada ?? from Down Under we stand with you. Frumpy has put tariffs on our stuff too! I’m off to buy some delicious real Canadian ?? maple syrup and whipping up a batch of delicious pancakes on Saturday morning. ?

I'm from Australia. Traveled and trekked the great country of Canada. Stand proud and to hell with trump. Don't let him intimidate you.

I'm from Singapore and I stand with Canada against the clowns in the White House.

I'm American and stand with Canada and Ukraine.

Calm down Canada. Trump ain't playing and I for one agree that y'all have literally skated through life. Skate away big boys. Uuuuuuu! Who are you threatening? FFS!\n\nAnyway, I'm in Kenya worried about police killings and such...?

This man is telling the truth! I STAND WITH CANADA . I’m a US ARMY VETERAN AND IM ASHAMED OF WHAT THE ADMINISTRATION IS DOING . Canada please give us to time to contact our government. It’s very dumb . It’s what Russia want , the enemy . Mr. president(Canada ) THANKS FOR BEING A GREAT LEADER .

I can't stand CNN = Communist News Network, and I don't care for Trueau but I'm going to have to stand with him on this. Trump is being absolutely rediculous that is going to hurt the poor and working class poor in both countries, Canada as well as America. I sincerely appologize to the Canadian people because my President who said he would make America great again has instead lost his mind and has went off on some insane tangent that will not hurt him or his rich friends (On both sides of the political fence).....Now Mexico that is where the garbage is coming from.

Go Canada! I’m a native New Yorker who hates Trump! Victory to Ukraine!

As a Brit... I've been to Canada many times (the first time as a soldier in 1981) and of late in the likes of BC, I've fished there. Love, love, love Canada and the Canadians. I've been to America too, and I love it there also. And while I'm not always a good judge of people...I flatter myself I'm a VERY good judge of character. And oh man, have they ever got it wrong with this Trump fella. Now there's a bloke I would not like to find myself in a combat situation since he'd likely shoot me in the back and run the other way. I just find myself asking how on earth it has come to this. How can they possibly think that a person such as this is a fit bloke to lead their country. Hitler? Don't talk to me about Hitler America. Honestly, it would make you want to weep...

I'm English, I don't know that Canada has any enemies around the world to be honest. The US is trying to control any neighbouring land and building a wall around itself in exactly the way Russia did. Look how quickly Trump has made all these changed. He aligns himself with Dictators and attacks his friends. Trump is literally alienating the worlds allies. There is no longer a leader of the free world. Watch this space.

Thailand's here and I might be minority in my country to not support Trump. But it's very relief to see decent and reasonable leader who speaks out for his country. I'm totally with Canada ❤

As an American. I’m with CANADA. Not every American voted for that clown.

Congratulations, trump. You f’ed us over and our closest allies. Why would you do this? And it shouldn’t be up to Canada to educate our people as to what’s happening. They have done so in the most polite way possible. I’m looking true north and I see Canada. ??

K, so you’re gonna stop the carbon tax now then, right?????? \nlol\nI didn’t think so. This guy is so full of it. He is the reason why we are suffering as a country. Not Donald Trump. Donald is just looking out for his own country. It’ll help them, it’ll hurt us because you’re gonna let it hurt us. We are already taxed in every humanly way possible. What’s next? I’m sure you’ll think of something to tax. \nThis man has ruined what’s left of Canada. Don’t fall for this rhetoric little speech people. \nOpen your minds and eyes!

I’m an American. I love our home. I love our people. I love our land. I love our principles.\n\nAnd it’s for all those reasons that I support Canada, Mexico, the European nations, and all the other sane countries around the world that are hitting back against these maniacs driving my homeland into the gutters of history.\n\nEven as a leftist, I’ve had my fair share of criticisms for Mr. Trudeau, Mr. Starmer, and Mr. Macron as well as the other leaders of the EU. But now, bygones are bygones. In Americans’ moment of need, it’s clear that three folks care more about the United States and our values than the Republicans ever will.\n\nThank you for standing on the right side of what will certainly be one of the most important moments in modern American history.

I'm a Filipino, and I stand with Canada.

Canada is our friend, our best friend, he is absolutely right. i'm sorry that my country is insane, Canadians.

No one is buying the fentanil pretext. A great speech from Justin Trudeau. I sincerely hope the Americans will wake up and destitute this ''Wanna be Putin'' in Trump along with his mentally challenged vice president. Loved the intervention of former General Wesley Clark. I mean, when you served the US Army as a general, i'm pretty sure this man loves his country and hearing him saying he's totally with Canada in this issue. It's sums it all.

As an American, I’m deeply sorry for what we’ve become by electing this orange idiot into the White House. I stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, and the rest of our global allies in opposition to our “president’s” bent to authoritarianism and isolationism. I truly hope that we can course correct before we (globallly) plunge into something much darker. \n\nKudos to prime minister Trudeau and other leaders speaking truth and calling the situation we’re now in for what it is.

I’m from us and with Canada we don’t like trump and Elon I used to until their real colors came ojy

I'm from the Netherlands, Canada you rock! We stand by you and Ukraine ?. We planned a family vacation to America this year and after the fight with Zelenski we annuled it immediately. Not going to spend my hard earned money in a country that defends a murderous dictator. Americans, I know it's Donald and the republicans, and that most of you don't want this. I hope the tides will turn quickly

For trump, Canada and Europe are enemies but ruzzia is a friendly country. How can it be? How stupid some americans can be to believe in these?\ntrump is a ruzzian active agent since 2012. His now taking US as dictator.\nDon't buy any US brand or maded product, specially tesla and starlink.\nUS is enemy with trump, and will be worst. US cannot be trusted for years to come. They let ruzzian got power in their own country. They put trump in power today, and tomorrow who will be? They are only 300M people, and half are against this, lets fight this brainless people.\nI'm European, I'm with Canada.

I’m an American… I’m so sorry, Canada. I love your country as well as ours. I don’t want this at all.

Well I bet those that voted for “Donald” are regretting it. You are poor today and will be poorer in four years. I’m moving to Canada, the grass is greener over there. ?

I have been living in the Canada ? for more than eight years, and even though I am not a citizen, I consider it my home. I’m so proud of you, prime minister Trudeau —this is how a true leader should speak. We are all in this together. Love you Canada ??, and I would give my life for this country if needed. ❤?

I’m a Taiwanese.\nI stand with Canada and Ukraine.

Thank you Canada, we love you. ? I’m a Californian, love Canada and appreciated your kind message. This pains me and we are so very embarrassed of what T is doing to us.

We Love You Canada! We do Not support these Tariffs we grieve with you! I'm so very sorry! God Bless you <3

Maga means alienating our friends and cozying up with Russia. As an American, I’m so embarrassed by our leadership. Canada needs to loosen their strict immigration laws. Millions of Americans want to get the fuck out of here. We love our northern neighbors, but they will only consider the super-wealthy as candidates.

I'm an US citizen, from Michigan, I stand with Canada. THIS is what a leader looks like.

I'm ashamed to say that our president is an absolute traitor to our allies and to its people. Somehow his cult followers were able to get him back into office instead of prison. Now all of us are having to suffer please do not lose faith we will figure out a way to get rid of the Trump regime once and for all as well as Elon Musk were so sorry about what they've done there will be payback for them for many levels just know that the United States people love Canada always have always will one of our greatest allies and our good neighbor. Sorry about Donald Trump he's a prick

I’m an American as well. And I’m with Canada 10000% we the people in the US (most of us) stand with y’all. What the current administration is doing with this country is truly shameful. And I as an American apologize in behalf of our government. May god bless all of us.

Well done Canada, I'm closing my Amazon and eBay account, I've had enough of anything Aamerican.

As an American I’m soooooo happy Canada is standing up to this dumb loser president and his side chick Elon musk ?

I'm sure other more friendly countries will continue to trade with Canada, without penalties.\nTrump is not a diplomat, not a statesman, and not really presidential material; the US just didn't have much to choose from.

I’m seeing a lot of comments saying ‘just move there,’ which makes no sense and is such a lazy response. Immigration isn’t as simple as packing a bag—there are legal, financial, and logistical hurdles, especially right now. Supporting another country’s stance doesn’t mean you have to leave your own. As an American, I stand with Canada on this.

I’m Thai and I want to move to Canada. Canadians seem like the politest and most reasonable people in the world.

Yes! Trudeau, I know this is hurting all of us. Thank you for standing against Trump. So proud of you for fighting back. Unfortunately we have to live with this jerk. He has destroyed all of us. He doesn't realize how much it is affecting the rest of the World. God Bless You and the citizens of Canada. I pray this ends soon. Stick to your beliefs. Do your best. I'm sorry to all of you for our greedy dictator. That you have to suffer because of his greediness. Not all of us believe in what he is doing.

I'm proud to be Canadian and American is not my enemy ! God bless Canada and USA ''.....Mr. Trump dear President than the \nHoly -Spirit blowing to you a good solution about all this!??❤
