American here. I stand with our Canadians brothers and sisters. I’m so embarrassed we have President Turd in the office. That orange clown needs to go! ?❌

I love the US. I love visiting the US. I'm going to miss crossing the border for Bills games, Sabers games, Michigan games but Canada first. I'll never spend a single cent there now.

Trump is a bitch don’t have the balls to go after China for the drugs there are the ones shipping the shit to Mexico to make fentanyl but go after the weak ones instead tells you a lot about a person don’t get me wrong I’m all for trump but he fucked this one up grow a pair of balls and go after Mexico and China he just fucked the the United States big times with this bullshit move

I’m an anti-trump American and I say “GO CANADA!!!”

My apologies as an American citizen. Please understand half of us do NOT agree AT ALL with this absolute lunatic. I did NOT vote for him, and I'm more disappointed as the days go on.

You need to get rid of these f****** biased new stations I'm so sick and tired listen to sing to them give me ideas happening just tell me what is happening I don't need a panel I don't need a former I just need them to give us the goddamn image truth the news not a story always trying to go for fearmongering tactics

I’m in the US but I’m cheering on Canada and the rest of the world. I’m sorry we’re the enemy right now. I know my prices will go up, but please please don’t back down!!

Canadian from Alberta here. I'm very impressed by our Prime Minister today. He was speaking intelligently, firm, and showed great leadership. Way to go Justin, you showed Trump how a person in a leadership role should conduct himself.

? I mean y you angry bro. Didn’t Trump say he was going to do this. I’m sure the tariffs with go away once you go away Trudeau

I'm sorry Canada. I voted for this guy who is now going crazy!

Go Canada, the UK is with you. I'm sorry for the decent Americans caught up in this. Please fight to remove this vile regime from office. Trump, Vance and Musk are a dream for Russia and other dictatorships.

when are all of you sheepeople going to realize that this media is offering only propagandized information. and their newscaster’s probably don’t even realize what they’ve been sold. That's why they’re so good at 4:38 selling us that garbage. I think it was Clinton that legalized us being propagandized. this man was shamed out of his Prime Minister position. he’s no friend to Canada and certainly not a friend to America. he’s been bought off and I’m sure he comes with a high price tag??????\nThe swamp is an ugly place. Maybe it takes an ugly acting man to clean it up. Go Trump! \nI’m turning off the fake news, it’s such a turn off the way they insult our intelligence. Wake up people!

You all are having a cock fight while the people will suffer with the spike of prices. Guess I’m going on a fucking ramen diet. ?

As an American citizen I’m saddened by Trumps B ignorance and diatribes I stand with Canada and the EU and any other countries who respond in kind. Trumps the Destroyer in Chief turning his back on Ukraine embracing Outin his hero, It disgusts me and makes me sick, Trump should be in jail and the Supreme Court empowers his injustices and is complicit, prices go higher Everything is Higher Day One has come and Gone.

More inflation isn't going to affect most of us. We've already had so much that we can't afford anything anyway. If a house already costs a million dollars who cares if it goes up to 100 million. Is truly not worth working during this period of time until work pays a living again. I'm at the point I'd rather go live off the land on a commune

To the Canadians from an American who favored Trump but not enough to actually go vote…I’m sorry for what is happening. I don’t understand why he’s gone after you.

I'm going to show my kids this as an example of how one should stand up to a bully. Good job Mr. Trudeau!

Let’s go canada cause soon I’ll be living in canada and Mexico and help them with the economy if I’m going to work I’m going to work for my land and for a country who loves people ❤

I’m going grocery shopping right now. Won’t be buying American. Not a damn thing.\nUntil Americans impeach and remove Donald why should I ? The Trump / Republican cabal is a sick twisted perversion of what most Americans and all Canadians believe in. Most right-thinking Americans abhor the term “Ugly American”. I do too. This isn’t American exceptionalism, it’s blatant greed and selfishness. One look at Mike Johnson, Marco Rubio, Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz and many other Republicans tells the whole story. Look in their eyes, there is a vacant distorted view. Remove them America or suffer the consequences.

He is a Democratic American. I really like this guy. Won’t I’ve always had a lot of respect for Canadians. They’re friendly. They’re nice people and don’t tell me to go live there. I’ll stay here and standby. My fellow Americans that don’t want tyranny. And I’m in my golden years and I had to see this. And I can’t imagine I just survived open heart surgery woke up during the surgery surgery and came out of it alive to be brought back back to what this is happening in my country.

I'm french, And i swear I will boycott everything I may buy from USA in the next 4 years and I won't go in USA neither. Donald Trump is most shameful president I've ever seen in my life. But what is mind blowing for me is how so many people can fall for all those lies and hate maga are spreading every day. People don't want to deal with facts and reality anymore. This how a civilisation is falling. Thank you to President Trudeau for speaking the truth aloud.

Maybe that Donald guy is just taking his revenge on America first.\nHe already stated that Canada and Mexico are to be annexed and we all agree that he's doing everything he said so far, literally. If he really moves his 100k+ troops out of Europe as he said I bet my ass that these soldiers are going straight to the U.S. borders, just like Russia did moments before invading Europe. I assume he'll stop there, anyway. Otherwise it means I'm in a coma at hospital right now, and all of this is a weird fever dream.

You know I'm so sorry this idiot did this to you when I'm from the United States and I'm really sorry you're right the world's going to go crazy and it's going to be the United States it's going to pay for it and you know maybe one day we can all move to Canada where we can have a better life than to Trump's out of office if he doesn't become a dictator you never know what could happen in life he already is a dictator I finally got away from all that and we all came in the United States for peace not for what we're going through right now I'm sorry Canada sorry Mexico I'm sorry the rest of the world but I voted the right way and other people voted the wrong way and some people are understanding what they did and some people are still sticking by what they did so hopefully somewhere else could be some peace for some Americans in some way or another

America is now a pariah state. I'm a Brit, and I have traded all my shares that were in American companies, and my son has cancelled a trip there. He's going to Canada instead. America will not see one penny of our money.

I'm Danish and I'm loving Canada's no-nonsense rhetoric. Our European leaders are cowards. Go Canada! Love from Denmark.

Go Canada! We need all the help you can give us to get rid of Trump. Make Trump's tenure in office the biggest failure ever seen.\nPS - I'm an American.

Trump has never quit nor been caught in blackface I'm going with Trump.. And i agree there's nothing we need from Canada!.. Your border is safe because USA is your neighbor period!

It's sad that Donald Trump, the president of the United States of America need other men to make him look so-called strong! The United States of America is a Latin stock and I want the rest of the world to know that the American people did not vote for this, do not want this, and to be honest with that we do not want Donald Trump in South Africa can take Elon Musk back because we don't want him either, actually emblemas can go f*** himself! We apologize to the Ukraine president, to Mexico president to the Canadian president, and all the leaders that have been allies to the United States of america, I'm speaking on behalf of every sane American care in the United States of America please accept our apologies and don't judge us so harshly because we didn't want this at all?

Yeah...support the company's and extend the EI benefits. Who's going to pay for that?! Increase our taxes?? I'm already paying over 40%! Idiots.

As an Australian I am so proud of Canada my second favourite country -- well done. I'm not buying anything American and certainly won't travel there. Direct flights from Brisbane to Vancouver mean I don't even have to go over the US.

Joe Biden didn’t have none of this nonsense and chaos going on . That’s all I’m saying!?

I'm serious about eating grass, I honestly I can't even afford deodorant at this moment ? ?( but I'm being serious about the deodorant) . My husband and I work and we are a family of 4. We don't get any benefits from the government (medical, or dental or anything) on top of that we still need to save money for an emergency. We pay out of pockets the 14,000 for our kids braces because we don't apply for any help. We pay 600 for lab test for both of my kids , honestly I'm just going to go like big foot and live in the wilderness and I'm not going to shave?‍?

I'm so sorry I'm an American and I'm just ashamed as to what's going on and I'm not just one there's millions of people even people who voted for him have changed there . He did not win by a landslide it was really close down to two states. I wish for your country only good things.god bless

I’m just 9:04 going to start pretending he is my president ?

I’m so ashamed of our country. This is going to cause global economy collapse. This is going to hurt everyone, and country, and corporations. Trump knows what he’s doing. He’s working with Putin to cause this- global plutocracy. Thank you for speaking truth to power. Maybe now, it will sink in to people. We pay, not ??. They are force to put tariffs on their goods, who do you think pays? This is ?, peanut butter, Aluminum foil, etc. I suggest start stocking up. In about two weeks increased prices will hit the shelves.

In Europe people are boycotting US products and it’s going to be an escalation in the boycott day after day.. I won’t buy anything from US from today and I bought every car I possessed from America and so did every member of my family because we are fans of this brand I’m not going to mention..

I'm American and so ashamed of our country’s behavior… Trump is a villain, a greedy, dictator!\n\nSo many of us Americans align with you Canada… Trump is diasterous and devastating our country. Trump is evil, corrupt and needs to go! Trump is a liar and we don't believe anything Trump says!

As an American I'm extremely saddened and disappointed by everyone who voted for Trump when we knew this day was coming. It's your fault this country is about to go through one of the worst economic periods ever.

Like I've said before or two other blogs, this man should not be up there addressing CNN or any other network or any population. Whether it be Canadian or American. He has no right to be there. He is not the prime minister of this country anymore. He has no right to be making policies or to be imposing tariffs or doing anything else of the sort. Furthermore, he is also politically, unsavvy and ignorant. He in his running the mouth speech this afternoon. Insulted Donald Trump again by calling him dumb. I'm telling you that will not go very well with Mr. Trump and I wouldn't be surprised to see additional tariff percentage increased on the 25% already in place. Justin Trudeau is not a prime minister. He is a thug, an absolute idiot, a moron and any other adjective that you can find to describe someone who is totally and completely incompetent and incapable of implementing policy or running a country.

I'm an American woman who is totally Embarrassed for the USA. I didn't vote for him and I have no Respect for him. I stand for Canada, Ukraine and Mexico. We're going to suffer while the billionaires in the white house (Musk) keep getting wealthy. What the hell Trump. Ur getting rid of our allies for being Putin's Puppet!!! I hate it here!??

I'm European and I am so proud about Mr. Trudeau and his team. What an intelligent people. The speech is simple to understand but together it is so strong and says all that matters. Applause. 20-40 years ago US was seen as a dream country here in EU, every east European dreamed to live there, but not anymore. Today most would not go to US to live even if they are payed to do so. US reputation is in historical downfall.

Way to go Canada, I'm American and and ashamed of our felon wanna be dictator that had put us in this position.

We don’t want this either!!! I’m devastated as an American. Inflation will go up at least one percent aside from goods and services and the auto industry might be irreparably damaged by this along with our relationships to our allies ?

I'm from NZ and I don't give 2 Fs about any of this!but it's funny watching all these morons going at each other ???? I will say one thing tho zelenskyy your the man real war president!

Know who I'm going after when he tries to destroy this country

We all know it had nothing to do with fentanyl. It is Trump's agenda. Reading all the comments I am also proud of Canada but we need to do something about Trump! Are we just going to keep letting this happen? Him screwing us all the while his wife and buddies and himself making money for themselves??? I'm ready for the next Revolution!

I'm from Texas. Voted for Republicans. But, don't feel good about whats going on now, especially with Canada.

From The Netherlands: Bravo to you Trudeau! And to you Canadians. We’re on your side. ?????✌️… I can’t believe what is going on with the USA and how that monsters Trump can do such a thing, and why?!? And how does democracy works in the US; did he get a majority of votes for starting this war?!? It’s disgusting (and the start of WW3? I’m scared as hell).

Dear CNN, \n The last time Trump went to Ruzzia to 'Negotiate' anything, he curiously left behind his Translation Team, his National Security Team, AND his Intelligence Team and walked into a room with Putin, (who had ALL those things with him). This resulted in D.J. getting pumped for info for around three hours. This 'Info' Putin has managed to use to great effect, as he entered into the Ukraine War, and now Donald wants to 'Negotiate' with Putin AGAIN on behalf of Ukraine?!? Trump doesn't even use the CIA for his geopolitical briefings, he actually uses 'Private Services' for his info, (at Taxpayer Expense) largely I'm sure, because anyone who is close to being Competent at what they do would 'KNOW' things, and would be correcting Trump, constantly, which he hates with a passion. On top of this there's Tulsi Gabbard who the Ruzzians themselves have publicly stated IS an Agent of theirs for the last Decade. It's for these reasons and more that I say D.J. is a Traitor to this Country for the love of money. \n How much more of an illustration does one require for a 'Worst Case' scenario?!? A 'Rogue Actor' taking control of the U.S. Government with full access to it's Nuclear Codes. It truly makes more sense to go Radio Silent with America, (for the time being at least) and co-ordinate with Mr.Zelenskyy as to how you will proceed. I would seriously be 'dragging my heels' on that Royal Invitation as well, as D.J. will completely misinterpret that to mean something entirely else! We in the U.S. are undergoing a COUP, plain and simple. No need to Soft Sell it going forward as Trump and Vance have knowingly delivered us to Ruzzia without so much as a single shot being fired. Thanks for the Post.

Couldn't make the March Forth rally today, took down by a migraine. Bad one too. \nI've been trying to get a doctor to fix my lower jaw bone, likely with a bone graft, as my left lower jaw is disintegrating and being reabsorbed by my body's auto immune response. \nI just got word today that with the pending cuts to Medicare, that I will likely have to pay for this procedure myself, to the tune of over $150,000 plus dentures, rehab, etc. \nThank you Amerika, I'm going to lose my face, and likely my housing, my food assistance, my SSDI, and quite likely my very life, because greedy billionaires own your ignorance.
