MAKE NO MISTAKE: TRUMP'S GOAL IS ECONOMIC MILITARY AND POLITICAL LEADERSHIP IN CRANK: CHINA RUSSIA ASIA (IRÁN) NORTH KOREA. TRUMP IS A GLOBAL THUG.

no more made in china???

Now he worries about Canada where was he for the last 10 years selling our country to China?

Trump don’t care about his people, what he wants is make the investors invest in USA in order to not charge tariffs like if it were easy to do and get back on 2000 year when the baby Bush triggered the massive investment in china and out of us soil; smart punk then. Labor wages are more higher than in china or mexico or any other country.

That's why Trump put a tariffs on China if China dnt stop sending fentanyl to Mexico.

Trump is just aligning himself with Russia and China…watch and see

for last many years Trudeau the idiot did bash trump & waisted time & money on ukiestan started wars with Saudi china india & ow russia accomplished nothing for Canadian economy

Remember, it's not just Canada that is responding to Trump. Mexico and China are also responding simultaneously to Trump's idiotic tariffs. Mexico, Canada, and China are America's biggest suppliers of materials crucial to the American economy and are huge markets for American goods. If Trump thinks he can fight all of these countries at once and not have America receive grievous damage, then he is more deluded than we thought.

Trump should know that retaliation from Canada and China and Mexico brings down USA to its knees, From now on I don’t buy any American products as a Canadian, Whole Canadian are united behind their government in this matter.

If you all love Canada and Ukraine and the UK then leave you woke clowns ?. All you woke want do is get free stuff from the government. MAGA. CNN=CHINAS NEWS NETWORK

It is time for Canada to fully embrace China and India as suppliers and business partners. \nChina can supply nearly everything that America can, faster, cheaper and a far better product.\nAmerica is a dying Country, thier citizens for years have elected the very same kind of people into their Governments. Old Stale Egotistical people who have no concern but getting re-elected.

God bless PM Trudeau ?\n\nGod bless you, President Zelensky ? \n\nTrump, Shame on you !\nYou abandon Ukraine and Europe just to lick Putin and get some business in Russia !\nYou have no shame ! ! \n\nIsrael, be prepared !\nTrump is Judas !\nSomeday, in the near future,\nrich Arab states will offer Trump\nsome good business, \nsurely Trump will abandon Israel !\nand will take sides with Hamas, Hizballah, Arabs, Iran, Turkey ! !\n\nTaiwan, be prepared !\nTrump is Judas !\nSomeday, in the near future,\nXi Jinping will offer Trump some good business, surely Trump will abandon Taiwan !\nand will take side with China ! !

everything is china in my house bahahaha

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

Trump's plan is to be a dictator. Tariffs, lack of access to education, lack of affordable healthcare, lack of affordable housing, lack of access to nutritious food causes American's to focus their attention on basic needs Shelter and Food. When American's are repressed they don't have the energy to fight Gov't oppression. This is Russia and China's playbook. Canada and Mexico are being used to achieve this evil goal.

Only Putin and china can benefit from trumps trade war

Yeah! You will sell out to China!!

Up to now, I strongly despised Trudeau. He was weak, dumb, inconsistent, insignificant. \nNow, my opinion has changed. \nWhat he says is far from crap. \nT is a criminal, at the service of China, Russia to disrupt the North American economy every which way he can, whilst hiding in the shadow of a sheer head on military conflict that would leave both sides in the midst of nuclear fallout for centuries. \nThe enemy within. \nThe scour of unabashed destruction. \nThe new age of mind slavery in a T.

Canada should nationalise all American assets in Canada,Ford ,Gm ,Walmart,Amazon ,Costco,McDonald's.,any oil companies in the oilsands.all of it.While we are at it invite China to build a few military bases along the border and let the USA go fu@ k themselves.

America is losing its hegemony, just like Israel, and this is in the interest of other countries that should rely on themselves, not America, which should not fall into such games. King Trump is acting in the interest of Russia, China, and Iran.

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

Had a dream of a war I saw china stood up like giants with india on its back something is happening

Great speech! This is how a mature politician sounds like. I wouldn t be suprised to find out that Trump is some sort of russian agent. He must be stopped. People like him are the cause for the start of downfall of powerfull nations. I bet China wasn t ever this happy like now

Trump thinks America rules the world whereas the balance can easily shift by this kind of aggressive approach, especially when there is a tremendous economical power called CHINA! I expect the infamous arrogant American culture will have to learn being humble soon. You should thank Trump for what is going to happen next.

We’ve been to war with Canada and we’ve been to war with Mexico. We have not been to war with China or Russia. Not sure who are greatest friends really are.

reciprocal, you charge us, we charge you, this sissy boy has failed Canada. and no, the American people wanted President Trump to put tariffs on you and Mexico for not stopping drugs and are helping China to kill Americans. so, this is your punishment...the world will no longer take advantage of the US any longer, 77 million Americans voted for President Trump take America back from the world stealing from Americans, President Trump has the highest approval rating supporting him.

tariffs are the side show of bigger plans, u.s. wants canada and greenland for their resources, china will be allowed to take taiwan and japan, russia is being allowed to take a chunk of europe

Long live Canada. The USA will soon be out of NATO and have no back up from any NATO country, when China, Russia, Iran and North Korea use the Trump and Vance comedy show to take over and rule the New World.

Russia USA and China Let's go together ???

Is Trump playing a game or what? He would like to attract Russia to separate it from China definitively, it is understandable but what is he trying to do here with Canada and Mexico ?\nThey import more American products than any other country. WTF

Trump is right, trudeau is selling off canada to china and india.

so if using fentanyl as a reason to hurt our relations with canada... why not use fentanyl as the reason to idk go after the cartels and china who supply and mule it to america which has taken over 1 million lives???

America over china

I'm from. Ew Zealand. All I see is Russia and China saying yes, now rome will full . Like Russia did in the 90's . Your all playing into the hands .

China and Canada stand up in front of bully, while Mexico remained silent

I stand with the World, I stand with the people of Canada, Mexico, China, Russia, kind people, helpless people who have no choice but to live in a country of dictatorship. I stand with Humanity ❤ I don't support Trump

Canada will have to respond more forcefully, as the US seeks to gain the upper hand in negotiations by hitting its biggest trading partners (Canada and China) first and then threatening other fraternal countries (smaller trading partners).

I'm not with trump but listen to professor Sachs speech in the European parliament. This war was planned and financed by the USA. It all started in the 1990s.its a game that the elite and the MIC play . Who owns most of the mic, BlackRock. Who has the contract to rebuild Ukraine, BlackRock. Who will mine Ukraine resources, BlackRock. Welcome to the game\n We are nothing more than porns. In all the movies growing up who are the villains? Russia, China, Middle East terrorist. One guess who the heroes are. Yep the USA propaganda feed to the masses through entertainment.

All of this just benefits russia and china..stinky don aka Krasnov is a traitor!!

he is not going to war with you you dope, it's just a tariff, not even a trade war like he did with China, Trudeau, grow up!!\nhe is not appeasing with Putin, he's not at war with them, he wants to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine, what's da madder with u!?

American here. Trump is an incompetent man! Not only is his trade war with Canada, Mexico, and China breathtakingly stupid, it also raises prices for Americans, costs American factories jobs, and isolates us from our allies. And just today, Trump paused aid/arms to Ukraine. Putin has no incentive to make concessions now, knowing that Trump has cut off arms to Ukraine. Our apologies to your Canada. We are fucked! If you could put a 100% tariff on Tesla, you'd be doing us a HUGE favor.

If Trump has trouble with fentanyl why don’t he get on China where it’s made and Mexico where it’s mixed plus the people who use it

Canada has known for decades that we have put too many eggs in one basket - selling our resources primarily to the USA. We've had tariffs before and worked with them. Yet we still keep selling to the USA. This time is different. In conjunction with the tariffs, we have an American administration that is flat out insulting Canada. Saying we wouldn't exist economically if it wasn't for the USA. It's at a time when the USA won't promise not to use military force to annex land (Greenland) from a decades old ally. A time when clearly Putin is calling in his chips for whatever he has over Donald Trump. Canadians have had enough. We are directing our governments, provincial and federal, to finally, finally break from the north-south trade links. We need to establish stronger east-west trade links. The resources we have are wanted by many countries if the USA does not want them. It does mean much work within Canada. We need to get our AB-BC pipeline finished as well as the new sea terminal so we can ship our crude oil and natural gas to Japan and if need be, to China. We finally need to get out pipeline to the Atlantic coast finished so we can supply the UK and EU with our products. We need to double our rail capacity for shipping potash, uranium, rare minerals to Asia or Europe. Just as Trump hopes for a golden age of American companies coming home and building new plants in the USA, this will be a golden decade for Canada to create transportation corridors to get our resources to other buyers. America will have to look elsewhere for his raw materials. And we all know what that is - RUSSIA. They've already offered their rare minerals and crude oil. This is all clearly a well thought out scenario from the people working behind Trump to dismiss America's allies and trading partners - have us turn against the USA - as the excuse to open the door to Russian imports into the USA.

There is one Golden Opportunity for India to get rid of our gigantic debt, sinking economy, dunky migrations, poverty, sinking our rupee value, China’s worry and misery including demise of Hinduism, Become 51st State of the USA. Trump the great is in a hurry to expand his empire ten fold at any price.

Bully CANADA a friend and ally !!! We are not CHINA NOT RUSSIA , NORTH KORIA , IRAN ? SAD !

These tariffs have absolutely nothing to do with fentanyl, immigrants, or the price of tea in China...they're all about the great orange one and his march toward (supposed) world domination ?

The world can do much better without EUROPEAN AMERICA. CANADA, MEXICO and CHINA will do much better without EUROPEAN AMERICA

Canada is insignificant on a geopolitical scale. Superpowers must maintain diplomatic ties that’s why we’re working with russia. Rather have Russia working with us than china. If our three branches came together to absorb Canada completely it WILL happen. Understand that NATO and every country inside it is under the US will. The US controls NATO

The US isn't launching a trade war against anyone. We are closing up shop and are getting ready to take care of our own. There is a massive difference. We cannot be expected to continue supporting other countries economies and defense obligations, when we have 2 generations of working class citizens unable to afford a home or have children. We have entire countries we could fill with the homeless and incarcerated, and veterans who see little to no positive treatment or respect within the job market. Things are already very very bad here in the states. I don't think many Americans realize how bad the economy is. Tariffs will force US companies to reduce the outsourcing of jobs, and force other countries who are over-reliant on trade from the States, to cultivate their own self-sufficiency. This may seem hypocritical when it comes to China, but that isn't a problem you can solve overnight. \n\nTo make it clear, Americans are going to suffer in the wake of this tariff decision, but that is the price we pay to force ourselves to change. We have made ourselves into a very weak country because of overreliance on other countries trade, and other countries overreliance on our intelligence, infrastructure, medical advancements, technological advancements, and defense capabilities. The american consumer and taxpayer front the bills for all of this, and they are suffering. This isn't a war on the rest of the world. It us telling everyone else that we can no longer be relied upon because we are weak. \n\nI didnt' even vote Trump the first two times he ran. But things have now gotten so bad that I was forced into voting for him this time. Why? Because he's a bull in a china shop. I expect him to tear every damn thing apart he can within our government. I want everything destroyed so it can be rebuilt by people who aren't complacent.
