Trudeau already said this nonsense last month. Virtually the same tariffs. Same points. \n\nCanada’s economy is down too and has been for a long time. \nTheir stock market is low. \nTheir RE is too high for its citizens. \n \nThey can’t win a tariff war due to attrition. And Canadians can ban together to not shop American as they been doing already. \nAnd none of you on this platform can do anything about that either. \nY’all can stand with Canada as much as you like. That doesn’t dismiss the fact that their tariffs on America was higher than America’s tariffs on Canada prior to this “tariff war”. \nAlso ya’ll can’t denounce citizenship and migrate over to Canada. Because they will not accelerate their process for citizenship. And will not accept the infinite number of you all.

Trudeau Sucks and thought he resigned!? Canada 51st State !make it happen people!

Canada it’s time to turn the electricity off in America. Maybe those boys will understand then.

Quite hypocritical, Canada is implementing a 26% Carbon tax increase on all goods come APRIL 1st and Carney thinks thats low. Our government has been doing this to Canadians since April 2019.

I think some leaders need mentors, and the Canadian prime minister should really school some ... But men this is what I call national delivery we will always support Canada all the way from Mama Africa

As an American, I stand with Canada.?? Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau for speaking today to us and for us.

GO FIDELITO GO! MAKE CANADA CUBA AGAIN

Stand on business Canada!

92% here standing with Canada

How about Canada just annex New England? Please? I'd be down with it.

Why is this dude still representing Canada? \n\nTwo months ago many of his key cabinets members resigned because Justin’s policies are destroying Canadians. Rightfully, he resigned. Dude needs to go away. Stop making Canada worse than what it has become under his horrendous leadership.\n\nThings happening:\n\nThe massive influx of foreigners, both legally and illegally into Canada.\n\nAffordable housing for native Canadians do not exist, people are leaving the country.\n\nHi mortgage payment or monthly rent are too high.\n\nFood prices are not coming down.\n\nSalaries are not keeping up with inflation.\n\nThe Canadian dollar keeps tanking.\n\nAs the leader of the country, he’s doing nothing to stop increasing violent crime.\n\nIncreasing amount of drugs in cities and suburbs.\n\nFinally, he’s pledging billions of dollars to Ukraine, when that money is needed at home.\n\nJustin is too emotional to deal with Trump.\n\nTrump complains about the trading balance between the two nations, $100 billion in favor of Canada.\n\nThe request is simple, import more American products, or export less products to America. But the imbalance has to stop.\n\nSame with Mexico, trading balance with Mexico is almost $200 billion in favor of Mexico. The imbalance has to stop. \n\nThe US economy is bleeding by trading with allies and partners, it’s fighting for its financial wellbeing. It is not some bs from the orange man, it is real.\n\nOf course Canada, Mexico, Europe and others want business as usual… and why wouldn’t they? ?

So true. Canada is reasonable and polite. That’s the obvious difference from US and that’s why I much more trust them.

As unpopular Trudeau is in Canada, he is 1000 times better than Madman Trump. Canadians should appreciate what they have

Is this the governor of canada?

Mr Trudeau, most Americans are with you 100%. We don’t want this, it’s ridiculous. Please know this Trump action is not the will of the American people. He acts alone and with stupidity that cannot be explained. We love Canada, Mexico, Europe, and all our allies. I feel we are being held hostage by one man and his sycophant cult. Please help us. ?

Standing with canada from orlando florida

Canada leaders are on target! They should not allow this worthless bully Trump to bully them! How senseless and ridiculous for Trump to cause this huge problem! Trump wants to be a dictator like Russia president which is why he speaks so favorably about Russia and speak down to our allies and our leaders.\nAmerica foolishly voted Trump back into office , now watch as he destroy this country , families , jobs and alike. \nPrices are higher than ever, Americans will go further into debt with the tariffs our allies are being forced to do!\nOur allies will NEVER TRUST US again

and he chose to do the same to Canadians......... its better for CANADA to buy american good without tariffs, don't hurt the Canadian economy like Trump does to his people

Usa just want 25% back...canada must no..business is about tax..mexico and canada so lucky get original made in usa..american made is number 1 in the word.zelensky is clown ...tredeau now can migrates ukraine and work under zelensky admiimnistration

Embarrassed American proudly standing with Canada and Mexico and Europe!

I was always remember the trade between united states and Canada \n So brave

Canada and Mexico are heading towards recession.

This is so sad. We Americans love Canada, Mexico and China. This is not what Americans want at all. This is what trump wants. He is destroying us for no reason. This is so hard to watch

Mr. Prime Minister I’m a proud Canadian. I know that we are ethical and we have integrity. We complied with the fentanyl issue, but this is not about fentanyl, it’s about something more. Perhaps he wants to do to Canada what Putin did to Ukraine, without the military force, but with the monetary force.

I have never heard a Canadian sound so fierce and it makes me wish I were a Canadian today. Canada, there are many many Americans that are so ashamed today be part of this country today and please know that we fully support you putting our country in its place. We hope that you know we have your back and that we hope that you will forgive us when we have shown we actually deserve it

Trump is smart. it's blackmail, he scares you with 25% tarrifs. then he will say, we can deal now for 15% or 10 BUT you need to give me this and give me that like minerals etc... if we dont well then our Canadien compagnies will either shut down or they will have to move to the States and than will give new jobs in the States. lol there you go win win for the States. Nothing good for Canada or others. He also said if tariff dont work to kill Canadien economie to absorb Canada then he would take it by force.

As an American, theoretically if U.S.A. and Canada went into a physical war i would have a serious self conversation about becoming a permanent Canadian resident and joining the C.A.F.

From Portugal, I am with Canada and all the countries and peoples who were victims of Trump. \nI never thought I would see a North American President ally with his traditional enemies and create enmity with his traditional friends and allies... all this in one month of government. We have to expect the worst and be united.

This is crazy. Canada is not our problem.

?? The Drop at the Boarder is Due to Military and Tariffs-> Why did Canada wait for Trump? Why wasn't this Done over the Past 4 Years while Drugs and Illegals were Pouring In???

Donald Trump is pushing Canada closer to Europe, Canada have a lots of what Europe and China wants , and its stable and reliable ???????

Canada\nHostoricaly\nAccept sacrifice\nCanada was in the WW1 in 1914\nThe US waited for 1917\nIt was in WW2 in 1939\nAmerica had to be forced to come in only in 1942

Trump’s ultimate goal is to take Canada, Mexico and Greenland, just like Putin. Isn’t that clear?! Dictator!!!

Can Canada just take over the US please!!!!

America doesn't need there trade, both Canada & Mexico was only worth about 2.3% of their entire GDP. It's a bad thing for Canada but it's not going to effect America, you'll probably see a temporary blip but it'll be back booming even better in no time.

Go Canada

As a Brit we often hear how the USA came to our aid when we stood alone against Hitler. True but Canada was there right by our side years before from almost day one. Great to see Canada still has some fight in them, huge respect from the UK.

Canada EH.ban trump from ever visiting Canada ??

Thank you Canada. Signed America

German here! I fully support Canada! Let’s trade with Europe instead! ??????‍???? Let him feel those conseqences! Greetings! ✌?

I AM CANADIAN. And sad to say I and my family were Trump supporters through halfway through his first term. The BS and blantent vugar talk from his mouth and now criminal conviction was enough. But now that I see Elon Musk , Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezzos and other billionaires in his shady corner I knew something wasnt right! And after how President Zelenskyy was treated, disgusting right for the news to see on purpose. Your President is way too close to Putin and who knows what other countries. Trump, and his cronies want the spoils and treasures of Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and Gazza! BTW Trump your welcome from Canada ?? for helping putting out your fires in California! But, then again we know you wont thank Canada! Hey Americans Canada ?? loves you! Alot of great history together! Lets not let trump and his cronies divide us!

im a american i stand with canada

I am american and ashamed of this president i didnt vote for. I stand with canada, ukraine, the and the uk .

Good job TRUMP .... Canada pretty mad.

I'm so glad I bought that Canada t-shirt when I took my granddaughter to Toronto. I'll be wearing it a lot!

I respect Canada President

Go join up with Russia and Canada if you don’t like it.

Thanks to those in the u.s who voted for your orange pumpkin head president. \nYou are the embarrassing ones that make the u.s look incredibly stupid, you keep outdoing yourselves. Thanks for that, we all hope you catch the crabs.\n\n\n\nAnd many thanks to those who are in support of Canada. God bless you all!

Canadian here. Wake up Canadians. Many people are praising Trudeau for this speech. Don't. He is out as Liberal leader within the week. He doesn't have to follow through on anything he said. Plus, he just stated that he's smart enough to suggest that Trump just put a 25% tax on Canadian goods for Americans but he also thinks that you are dumb enough not to realize that he just put a 25% tax on Canadians for American goods. Trudeau basically created the situation for these tariffs (open border to let anyone come here). He loves this as he gets to take the apparent moral high ground for the first time in his life and wants this speech to be the way he is remembered rather than years of failing Canada. Forget about the last 9 years and vote Liberal if you are a fool.

Imagine being an NPC and siding with Canada because CNN tells you to. I bet most of these comments are from bots.
