In my 75 years, I have never been so ashamed, as I am today!!! I stand with Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine!!

I support this more than Trump, and I'm sure the majority of Americans agree at this point.\n\nI can't stand the hypocrisy on immigration though. Canada has us as a buffer from a country desperate to get in, and they are still allowed to have very secure borders without getting flack.\n\nWhen America just doesn't want the faucet of immigration on full blast, we are the bad guys.\n\nThe Fentanyl excuse is absurd when it comes to Canada and the tariffs. It's a legitimate concern from the southern border. The northern border has never been an issue...

So many ignorant people here in these comments. The president is charging countries the same percentage of tarrifs that they charge us. So if Canada wants to pay for 0% for tarriffs, they needs to remove the 25% we pay as well

i loved canada...especially the people, they are so niced...!!!!❤❤❤

Canada has no cards too. Finally tasting own medicine now and pleading his ex-master ?haha

This American is 100% ashamed of, and embarrassed by, the actions of our government toward our own people and our allies and of course our dear friend Canada. My cohorts hope and pray we can regain our sanity as a country and return to a nation of good values, not one governed by greed and hate.

From Colorado standing with Canada

This doesnt bother me. Im pretty sure Canada already Tarrifs US products. And Mr. Trudeau has some incorrect information on the illegal percentages along with fentyal statistics. something along the lines of 30% comes across from the Canadian border.

American here… I’m standing with Canada, Ukraine, Europe, Mexico, and any other country affected by this senseless trade war. I do not stand with Russia. Perhaps, and maybe MAGA worshippers will see the light when they can’t afford to buy a house. I didn’t vote for “the orange” and not all of us are brainwashed. ??‍♀️

Can hardly wait until Canada bankrupts the USA. Cut all trade with a war mongering nation, Canadians stand strong and free, we will prevail against the likes of Trump, Vance and musk who was never elected to office. Ontario just canceled starlinks, we don’t buy American products, the best thing is to shut our borders to American citizens and trade period. Just wait and see USA what we do!

Maga people think Trump is their friend. Canada and the US have been friends for 150 years as long as he thinks people have been collecting social security. Now that trump is in office a heel turn, actually he was always the villain turns the Americans friends and sides with American enemies. At this point if you still follow him you've got stockholm syndrome.

I'm an American citizen I stand with Canada.❤

Those of us who think Trump is a whack job, stand with Canada and apologize to the Canadian people

Why do I feel like Trudeau cares more about my well-being than my own government? Not all of us Americans support Trump. Frankly, I'm terrified of what he's doing. I support your push back, Canada. It only makes sense. I'm glad there are countries out there with safe and logical leaders. Hopefully someday the U.S. can have that again.

Trump is friend only to himself. Beyond that, I'm wondering if he is a Russian asset. What did he and Putin talk about in Helsinki in 2018, when no one else was allowed inside the room, very much against protocol? There are simply too many odd Trump-Russia incidents to ignore this, starting with Paul Manafort passing Trump campaign intel to Konstantin Kilimnik. I think there is cause for investigation. And frankly, spying on Trump should they find anything that warrants it. Canada rocks. I ordered a new Canada t-shirt and I'm going to wear it in public. Trump sucks golf balls. Thinking about getting a Gulf of Mexico shirt too. Trump is making Trudeau into a hero all of a sudden. LOL, way to go dumb orange president.

Canada , cut the electricity ⚡️!

Thank you Mr. President! Nothing but respect! You are a class act, a fine example of what a man with character and common sense should act like… Trump is very jealous because he’s such a toddler constantly throwing temper tantrum‘s, he has no respect for anyone not even himself. Most of us stand with Canada and agree with you… It’s unfortunate we have a common criminal sitting in our oval office… God help us all ????

Siamo alla fine degli USA.\nLunga vita al Canada ??❤

Russian asset, *_Agent Orange_* has succeeded in the isolation and the beginning of the fall of the United States. \n_Trudeau did not only speak for Canada, _*_he spoke for the entire free world_*

This American is with Canada , FK trump

We should invade Canada ?

We stand strong with Canada and Mexico!!!

Canada will be the 51st state lol

One thing I find cool about Canadian federal speeches is that they conduct it in both English and French - Canada’s official languages. Their politicians are mostly bilingual because they are required to be. That’s kinda cool.

Well done Canada ?

We're all so disgusted and saddened about all of this. You're so right about everything that you're saying about trump; Putin has his puppet in this country and he's making the most of it, by helping trump to become dictator here. Please Canada, do what you have to do, we don't want this either; we're stuck with trump until our congress grows a spine and kicks this ugly, vindictive man out of office! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, you are what is needed in this crisis! I'm glad to be a Canadian, I just wish I was living there, not here. What a total embarrassment to us all that did not vote for trump. (from Sandi Paquet)

Love Canada, fight fight fight, we hate Trump!!!

Wow I'm sorry Canada! This is not what we want either!! Very embarrassing to be an American right now. ?

It seams Canada was never friend of US, so it’s time to wake up

He talks as if there's no trade imbalance. Us goods going into canada at a higher rate. A good neighbor doesn't allow fentanyl and illegals into our country. The usa does not need canada. The usa is the third largest in population. The usa is its own ecosystem. The usa needs nothing from canada. I stand with President Trump and Made in USA.

I thought you were gone Trudy. We like you Canada but we don’t really need you. We can solve the problems we get from you in 15 minutes. This guy has no problem freezing protesters bank accounts, forcing people to scan QR codes to decided who eats at a restaurant, and government sanctioned beatings of peaceful protesters because they dare stand up for freedom. Canada wake up. Trudy is a good old fashioned communist. The more he fights back against Trump, the more I know Trump is right.

He's leaving office this month. He has nothing to lose. Canada will be the big loser in the end. As an American I stand for America.

Wow bravo Canada. My dream country

The whole Americans are delusional. They see their country diving down and not doing anything about it. I stand with Canada.

We are so sorry Canada! This POS in the White House needs to go!

That's hilarious how CNN has adopted a loser PM of a third world country to be it's faint beacon of their version of Democracy. \n \nCanada is a colony of the UK. It's not a Democracy. \n \nIn this day and age of freedom and independence, and respect for human rights, Canada and the UK governments should be ashamed that colonialism is still their guiding principle. \nI find that ridiculous that CNN does not see the hypocrisy of Canada and the UK leading the call for continued Ukraine independence. \n \nIs this slavish relationship the attraction for CNN and it's ignorant presenters? Isn't CNN the least bit ashamed they admire slavery in the 21st century and that they are giving voice to colonialists?

Canada and Mexico both complied with his demands. Give him and inch..

Canada please work with global leaders in stopping Putin and Trump! Axis of evil.

A real leader. I'm so sorry Canada has to deal with our petulant child of a president.

What's WILD to me is that some Americans (*not intelligent ones) still stand behind their leader. It's an unreal time to be living in the US. \n\nLove you Canada!

Bravo le Canada ! En tant que français je suis si fière de votre résistance .Merci de parler franchement et de rétablir la vérité dans cet océan de mensonges maga.\nLes usa traitent mieux les dictateurs que ses alliés parce que Trump les admire et il veut abattre la démocratie.

There is a misunderstanding and disagreement happening between Canada and America obviously but a trade WAR?! Come on now smh that’s a bit dramatic. There is no war of any kind between America and Canada , not even a trade war. Fake news, knock it off. Smh

Sorry Canada. But Donald's not interested in fact. It's theater. He has no idea how tariffs work.

Australia is backing you Canada! Get me some genuine maple syrup!

Canada We know it’s not You! Unfortunately because Racism is Ingrained in the fabric of America, We are here yet Again?? Because a vote for An Orange cheetah is just insane. They thought by voting for Orange boy the stuff being implemented would only affect people of color. Check Your hearts America God is Aware of who is whom & Judgement it at the Door??

We are so scared of Canada… that was a Joke???????

I’m American and I love Canada, he is not our president, he is a terrorist and a dictator. I’m so sorry Canada. The American people are under attack and our allies are at risk too. I pray for the freedom of all people and I’m sorry.
