Can we have the Canadian President instead of ours? Both Canada and Mexico responds to the requests and demonstrate they are trying to be our allies and for some reason we still proceed into a trade war. I think there's an aspect of the tariffs where it's a tax that's not called a tax, where there will be reductions in taxes for the wealthy and then these tariffs are added taxes for the general population.

Trudeau wants to make Canada an Islamic country. Liberals and NDP should step down from Canada.

We need to stop giving Canada 2 trillion a year we get nothing out of it. Stop giving him that and we can solve our own problems about trade. Donald Trump is smart. Don’t fool yourselves we’re gonna make out in the long run.

WOW, Prime Minister Trudeau, Canada is very proud of YOU!!!!!!!!!! and that kind of leadership is what we needed in the USA. Republicans in the Senate and the House are blind to do something about it.

We stand with Canada, Mexico. Not all Americans are fools. We are sorry

Though I'm not a fan of Trudeau as a politician, on his response to Trump I'm proud of him. He stood up for Canada with force and truth. People will remember that.

Guys don't forget Canada's tarries on American goods were 18%

This idiot so call leader destroyed Canada with the evil , woke Liberals, you met your mstch now and I hope Canada becomes apart if USA to teach a lesson to every woke Liberal Canadian, we have to bring back strong Christian family communities and get rid of illegal migrants, transgenders, STOP Sexualizing children, STOP all foreign aid especially to the Ukraine, you help your own first and foremost, this idiot Justin Trudeau has to be kucked out of Canada and never let back aling with every other liberal.

I genuinely wonder what a balance sheet would like before tariffs between what Canada gains from U.S. vs U.S. benefiting from Canada. I’m neutral because I don’t know enough. But I feel like that would be a good place to start before putting the last few months at the forefront.

Stay strong beautiful Canada and thank you for supporting Ukraine ??

Trump's going to bankrupt the U.S. just as he has many of his businesses. As an American, I can't wait to move up to Canada. I'm absolutely embarrassed to be a born and raised American citizen. I'm embarrassed and ashamed by many other fellow citizens and by the choices the current government is making. I'm also continually perplexed and ashamed by the continued mistakes our country continues to make every damn year and decade.

As much as this will suck for all Canadian and US citizens, I fully support Canada. I applaud everyone standing up to our despicable Pres and his billionaire posse. Let them eat their money and go to hell.

I'm American and I'm appalled by our current administration. I'm with Canada and Ukraine.

A lot of lumber goes (went) to Canada, what will the terriffs do to that?

Bravo Canada! You know how to elect a leader! Trump and his cronies can place tariffs on anything but they will never earn Trust or Respect.

I hate to see something like this take place, but the bullying behavior of the current administration make it unavoidable. The American people will be the losers. If I were thirty years younger, I'd be packing the Dodge and mapping the quickest route to Canada instead of writing this.

I support Canada and Trump can go to hell

A lot of we Americans are so sorry and sad. I love you, Canada ??You are what a great country looks like❤

Trump wants to cripple Canada to annex it so he can have rare minerals for tech. Then he’s closer to Russia for his future plans!

Here in the UK we appreciate friendship and loyalty. We will stand by Canada, Ukraine, the Baltic states and Denmark whatever happens.

Lol, so tariffs are a bad thing for the country, but ok for them to implement on theirs, lol!!!! Feed me more BS. Its about who they hurt more. Believe me, its Canada that will feel it more. The US will have more companies popping up to fill the gap.

I think I can say that all Americans who aren’t racist republicans stand with Canada and Mexico.

If you live in the US it's time to move. If you're in Canada or Europe you need to boycott the holy living hell out if US imports, US compaines, and any company that does business in the US. Starve the US of money and plummet the economy. The only effective nonviolent resistance that works is to prevent the coporations from making a profit. \n\nAt least JT had the sense to separate the Smerican people from its current leadership. That's rare in history. \n\nI SUPPORT CANADA AND UKRAINE. FUCK TRUMP.

USA will do what Russia did and one morning we will wake up to USA tanks rolling into Canada. ??. Little does the USA know we have the strongest man amd women.

Well spoken Mr Trudeau. I am proud to be Canadian. I feel sad for both countries. Can't believe that no judge is declaring the National Security argument as unjustified. I thought this was not possible to impose this without voting it properly if national security is not a real threat under the US constitution... And the argument of trade deficit is such a weird concept. Would Trump agenda be more evil here, and use economic force to force Canada to annex them because they want our resources?

I'm so sorry Canada, from a sincere American. God bless you guys.

Thank you Governor of Canada

HEY TRUDEAU, WE DON'T NEED CANADA !!!!! YOU NEED US !!!

Prime Minister Trudeau is boldly hitting the nails on the head, and I admire his boldness and honesty as I've always admired Canada and its peoples. Trump is in the back pocket of the Russian dictator. His actions prove it to my satisfaction. Canada has been a staunch friend of the US, a real partner not just for economic benefits for both countries but for a democratic way of life. Canada is a strong democracy whose people are known for their open hearts and minds. I pray that this idiotic trade war started by a man who is subservient to Putin will come to an end. I say to Canadians, let us stick to our common values of democracy, free expression, peaceful borders, and our commitment to the greatest good of the many rather than the greatest good of the few and the Russian dictator.

American here. I stand with Canada and every country that stands up to our bullying, corrupt, soulless, despicable president. ??

So, you spent all this money, and at the end, the result is 25% US tariffs ??. This simply shows how a lapdog Canada is.

I stand with Canada Mexico UK and Europe. Please don’t hate all of us because of the idiots that are running and elected that idiot. I do not stand with Trump and Russia

To hell with canada.

Canada is our friendly neighbor, Trump should work with them rather than punish them with tariff. I am pro Trump but no, not this.

European Union here, Czech Republic. We stay with us Canada, we stay with you! And let's bypass Trump's America with Mexico and the whole South America as our allies too. BTW the Arab league can be our friends too and many countries in Africa and Asia, South Africa and Australia as well. Let us not be dominated anymore, let us finally freely cooperate!

I live in canada, Trudeau is the most hated prime minister in history. \nCNN can pander all they want to this dictator, but know this, Trudeau is a wef puppet and doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself. \n\nThis joke of a speech is just a photo op and acting tough because an election is coming.

Bad decisions from TRUMP:\n1. With Zelenski \n2. With Canada\n3. With China\nWhat's happened ???\nhttps://youtu.be/xIW7JfUP0bc?si=BfnJCwoeH591rOkQ

Canada just salty USA beat em in hockey

Please Canada, hate Donald and those who supported him but remember not all of us support him. I hope you punish America enough that we buckle under your pressure.

I'm proud of Canada I'm ashamed of the United States

I am indonesian living in the US. I am with you Canada ❤

American here (as embarrassing as it is to admit), I stand with Canada 100%!!! I did not vote for this disgrace of a human! Blessings and Love to all Canadians. ???

Canada? … Canada tho???

From the UK. So impressed. Well done Canada!

If tariffs are dumb why does Canada have them

Great speech, as a dutch person i stand with canada. ????

Thank you Trudeau and Canada!\nWe can't defeat this madman internally, so yes, please keep executing external discipline & control until these crazy trump supporters feel it & understand it & change!\n\nAmerica deserves this tough love lesson from our brother, Canada!

As an American, who didnt vote for Trump, I am proud of Canada standing up. We did this to ourselves.

Canada just gave us a talking too.

God bless Canada. As an American, I am ashamed.
