To our Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, excellent communication, excellent speech, and excellent leadership ? ??

Mr Prime Minister Trudeau you spoke so well. Thank You from California. Respect Canadian.

Well done, Prime Minister Trudeau. You make me proud to be Canadian.

I’m damn proud to be Canadian and even prouder of our Prime Minister. A truly stunning and historic moment.??

Trudeau should just go back to his home and wash his arms, smell his fingers and fall down n his face.\nThats my mean Canadian response to my a$$hole Prime Minister.\nThese tarrifs are now costing me more $$$…

Well spoken, Prime Minister Trudeau!!! As a Canadian, I just cannot help myself for loathing anything American, just because of this one man, Donald Trump and his cronies.

Ok democrats!! \n\nDemocrats: we love canada, he is patriotic\n\nRepublican: Yeah!! No worries America can supply our own!! We will find another source!! So cute!! \n\nCry Democrats Cry!! Until no tears left in your eyes!! kamala LOST!! Deal with it!! Your Gay Canadian Prime Minister Sucks

So agree with Canadian prime minister. Trim does everything to make life of Americans harder. The US is loosing all of it allies

Who cares about the Canadian prime minister isn’t he suppose to step down anyway

The audacity of this, so-called Canadian Prime Minister to disrespect America in this fashion after all we did for them

Anyone who ever was a victim of bullying understands exactly what is going on and how it will end for those who wants to appease/bend to the bully. Yes, it will be painful for Canada, extremely. But you have to get really sick in order to recover stronger than ever before. Zelensky knew the inner workings of how bullies work so he probably knew the white house meeting won't end cordially especially it is occupied by people he has no love for and he understood the lack of love was mutual. I think he'd bent over and wagged his tail if he thought that'd help his nation but knowing that will not get his country anywhere anyways, why would he bend over and try to please someone who was determined to screw him and his country to begin with. Zelensky saw how Canadian prime minister was treated and how he tried to please Mr. T yet to no avail. Yes, Zelensky has no real good, readily available cards to play. If the game is rigged, no reason to play by your rule, is there?

kudos to a strong Canadian Prime Minister

Tariffs 25% higher are in place in The United States of America north and southern borders and the canadian prime minister's words are some of the consecuences. He doesn't want trade war ,he doesn't want anything against americans but all the people in government in the north, the center an in the south of the border , have to work for the best and rhe common interest in notrh America ,as Pam and Paula were saying.

Thank GOD you’re still Prime Minister Justin. Very proud Canadian I’ve always been but even more now. My Dad fought in WW2 he fought for our freedom then We all will now. OUR TRUE NORTH STRONG AND FREE

As a Canadian, I'm actually proud of Prime Minister Trudeau. Canadians stand up to bullies, GOP need to be afraid (politically) of their constituents not Trump!

I am from Bengal, India --- now in Canada, and I absolutely love this country as my own-- I stand with Canada-- my country-- cause the values are much more potent -- and because this prime minister has the balls to stand up to a bully-- while others stoop including the #Gujarati fascist, the terrorist organization #RSS mainly from Karnataka and Maharastra ruling India. I am proud to call myself Canadian. Go Team Canada

You mean exiting Prime Minister, that Canada doesn't want, that is why Prime Minister Trudeau is backing down and quitting from his own political fight. Don't forget Prime Minister Trudeau froze Canadian citizens bank accoiunts for protesting goverment Covid-19 vaccination manfates.

Canada will be implementing 25% tariffs against $155 billion worth of American goods, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a press conference Tuesday. \n \nSpeaking from Ottawa, Trudeau said there was “absolutely no justification or need whatsoever” for the tariffs imposed by the US on Canada, which went into effect today. \n \nThe prime minister explained that $30 billion worth of US goods would see tariffs immediately, while the remaining $125 billion worth of goods would see tariffs in 21 days. \n \nTrudeau added that Canada will file claims at the World Trade Organization, but in the meantime, “our tariffs will remain in place until the US tariffs are withdrawn and not a moment sooner.” \n \nThe prime minister also again hit back against US assertions about Canada being unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl. \n \nHe said the legal pretext Trump presented for the justification of the tariffs —“that Canada is apparently unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl” — is “totally false.”

Regarding tariffs on Canada. The real target are corrupt Liberals, not us the Canadian citizens. Trudeau act like an evil teenage spoiled brat. His word salads and extravagant lavish expenses that benefits himself and his buddies NGOs have to be exposed and sentenced to jail. Trudeau is best buddy with Gavin Newsom, so, go figure right? We need an election, we will elect Conservative Poilievre for our new Prime Minister, and we need a DOGE for Canada. Cheers!

Roxam rd is a way the immigrants use to cross to New York from Quebec Canada. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) protect that crossing and had journalists arrested for reporting on it. Canada has always backed the U.S. but a tyrannical government is collapsing our country just like the UK and Australia. WE NEED YOUR HELP. Stop trying to punish Canadians and HELP US get rid of this insane progressive liberal government that is choking the life out of Canadians. If not… Canada will become ChinIndia by the end of 2025 and will be fully controlled by tyrannical communism , and globalists.

It is very funny. Canada let the illegals to get in and them transported them to our border! Isn’t that a human trafficking from the Canadian Prime Minister? And wonder why our border patrol control center let all those buses in?

It is very funny. Canada let the illegals to get in and them transported them to our border! Isn’t that a human trafficking from the Canadian Prime Minister?

Canadian here and our failed Prime Minister is a joke. Hopefully we can get someone with a brain soon. We need to start screening and sending ppl back on flights from the get go. We love and support the U.S. and most Canadians don’t support this. Trudeau is an idiot.

December 2024, Canadian Parliament approved a plan to secure their border with the US.\nJanuary 2024, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dismissed the Parliament and delayed the election of a new Parliament until March, giving him 3 months of carte blanche. One of his first acts was to cancel the plan to secure their border, claiming that it was too expensive.\nFebruary 2024, US President Donald Trump forced PM Trudeau to reinstate the plan by making the tariffs more expensive than it would be to secure their border.

I bet Donald Trump told them that if you continue to allow them to cross the Canadian US border that he’s going to send all the illegal aliens to Canada like Texas did to New York and California? and I’m sure there were some also monetary threats to mr. T. The Prime Minister.

Cash don't put all Canadians with our Prime minister. We come from two world and he is part of the WEF . He wanted Canada to increase Canada from 35k to 100k . Both countries need border security at the same levels or in zigzag levels

Canadian Prime Minister and Priner Doug Ford is in denial, claiming Canada is as pure as the driven snow, all lies. Trump is right as President . Protect the US south and North because Mexica and Canada are not doing the right thing,they do not care.

So sue canada and trudeau. The prime minister claims less than 1% of fentanyl that kills Americans a year comes from Canada. That's 500-1000 Americans dieing from canadian fentanyl a year. That's 2000 to 4000 Americans deaths in bidens 4 years from canadian fentanyl

As a Canadian, I support any measure Trump places on Canada. There's a lot of Canadians, who are not willing to bend the knee to the Trudeau government, even if it means some pain. We are so sick of Trudeau and his NDP coalition government. Canada is struggling to get rid of this government and to let you know how bad it is, we are about to have our first ever 'UNELECTED' prime minister. He won't last long but it does really feel like pure unadulterated Authoritarianism.

Liberals Justin Trudeau named the worst prime minister in Canadian history, he ruined Canada s immigration and border through his mass immigration policies. for the last 9 years . Canada is a safe haven for extremist s and terrorist. Cause of Trump he now secure Canadian border. I hope conservative leader Pierre Poilieve will be the next Prime Minister of Canada and fix all this Justin created mess.

Trump says EU tariffs will ‘definitely happen’ as Mexico, Canada and China retaliate \nTrump takes softer line on UK, saying ‘I think that one can be worked out’, while Mexico and Canada vow levies and to strengthen ties with each other \n \nPhilip Wen, Léonie Chao-Fong and agencies \nMon 3 Feb 2025 03.57 GMT \nShare \nDonald Trump has threatened to widen the scope of his trade tariffs, repeating his warning that the European Union – and potentially the UK – will face levies, even as he conceded that Americans could bear some of the economic brunt of a nascent global trade war. \n \nIt comes as Trump’s tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, announced on Saturday, sparked retaliation from all three countries. Mexico and Canada have vowed levies of their own while China and Canada are seeking legal challenges. \n \nTrump said on Sunday night that new tariffs on the EU will “definitely happen”, repeating previous complaints about the large US trade deficit with the bloc and his desire for Europe to import more American cars and agricultural products. \n \nEmpty shelves remain with signs ''Buy Canadian Instead'' after the top five US liquor brands were removed from sale at a British Columbia liquor store in Vancouver. \nAsian sharemarkets tumble in response to Trump tariffs \nRead more \n“It will definitely happen with the European Union, I can tell you that,” he told reporters. “I wouldn’t say there’s a timeline but it’s going to be pretty soon.” \n \nTrump appeared to take a softer line on the UK, citing a good relationship with prime minister Keir Starmer while saying tariffs still “might happen”. “The UK is out of line but I’m sure that one, I think that one can be worked out,” he said. \n \n“Well Prime Minister Starmer’s been very nice, we’ve had a couple of meetings, we’ve had numerous phone calls, we’re getting along very well, we’ll see whether or not we can balance out our budget.” \n \nIn Canada, the department of finance published a list of US products imported into Canada that it will target with a 25% retaliatory tariff starting on Tuesday. \n \nThe list shows products that will be hit in the first round of retaliatory tariffs by Canada starting on Tuesday, and mounts to $30bn Canadian dollars’ worth of goods (about US$20bn). The impacted products include tobacco, produce, household appliances, firearms and military gear. \n \nCanada is also preparing for a second, broader round of retaliatory tariffs in 21 days that will target an additional C$125bn (US$86bn) worth of US imports. The second list would include passenger vehicles, trucks, steel and aluminum products, certain fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, dairy products and more. \n \nFILES-US-CANADA-MEXICO-CHINA-TRADE-TARIFFS<br>(FILES) US President Donald Trump speaks to the press after signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC on January 31, 2025. Trump is imposing steep tariffs on major US trading partners Canada, Mexico and China, with a lower rate on Canadian energy imports, said the White House on February 1, 2025.

Goods from China, said the White House, would face 10 percent tariffs.

Sheinbaum, in a statement on Sunday, said she will announce details on her government’s “plan B” as she insisted that Mexico “doesn’t want confrontation”. \n \n“Problems are not addressed by imposing tariffs, but with talks and dialogue,” she said. “Sovereignty is not negotiable: coordination yes, subordination no.” \n \n'Coordination yes, subordination no': Mexican president responds to Trump's tariffs – video \nSheinbaum and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau spoke by phone on Saturday after Trump’s administration imposed the new tariffs – 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, with a lower rate of 10% for Canadian oil, and 10% on imports from China. \n \nTrudeau’s office said in a statement that Canada and Mexico agreed “to enhance the strong bilateral relations” between their countries. Canadian officials have had extensive dialogue with their Mexican counterparts, but a senior Canadian official said he would not go as far as to say the tariff responses were coordinated. \n \n“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau posted Sunday on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.” \n \nTrump acknowledged the sweeping tariffs he has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China may cause “short term” pain for Americans as global markets reflected concerns the levies could undermine growth and reignite inflation. Asian markets, cryptocurrencies and US and European stock futures slumped in early Asian trading on Monday. \n \n“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said. day, Trudeau said: “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.” However on Sunday evening, a senior government official from Canada briefing reporters in Ottowa on condition of anonymity said: “We will obviously pursue the legal recourse that we believe we have through the agreements that we share with the United States.” \n \nThe official said the Canadian government considered the move by Trump illegal and said it violates the trade commitments between the two countries under their free trade agreement and under the World Trade Organization. \n \n“If other legal avenues are available to us, they will be considered as well,” the official said. \n \nCanada is the largest export market for 36 states, and Mexico is the largest trading partner of the US. \n \nCanada and Mexico ordered the tariffs despite Trump’s further threat to increase the duties charged if retaliatory levies are placed on US goods. \n \nChina also said it would file a lawsuit against the tariffs. The imposition of tariffs by the US “seriously violates” World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement, urging the US to “engage in frank dialogue and strengthen cooperation”. \n \nFiling a lawsuit with the WTO would be a largely symbolic move that Beijing has also taken against tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles by the EU. \n \nThe commerce ministry also said the tariffs were “not only unhelpful in solving the US’s own problems, but also undermine normal economic and trade cooperation”. China has said it would take countermeasures to “safeguard its own rights and interests”. It is not clear exactly what form these will take yet. But for weeks Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning has said Beijing believes there is no winner in a trade war. \n \nLate Sunday night, Trump said he would speak with Trudeau on Monday morning and shortly after said he would speak with Mexico as well, although he did not specify that he would speak with Sheinbaum. \n \nBeyond the official response, people were already thinking of ways to cope with Trump’s decision, including by sharing suggestions on social media for alternatives to US products. \n \nCanadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem on Saturday night at two National Hockey League games.

Joseph Chua, who works as an importer, said he expects to feel the tariffs “pretty directly”. “I’ve always stood during both anthems. I’ve taken my hat off to show respect to the American national anthem, but today we’re feeling a little bitter about things,” he said, adding that he will start to avoid buying US products. \n \nIn the streets, people in Mexico were trying to absorb the announcement on Sunday, although some in the capital acknowledged that they were unaware of the measures. \n \nIn the border city of Mexicali, across from Calexico, California, some people were concerned about the wider implications of a trade war. \n \nDriver Alejandro Acosta says that he crosses the border weekly in his truck to deliver vegetables to US companies. He said he fears US businesses in the Mexicali Valley will no longer want to operate in Mexico and they will move to the US. \n \n“If they raise taxes on the factories here, jobs may also decrease,” he said.

No matter who is the prime minister . We didn't started it and we are not taking laying down. I think this was good enough push back. If Trumpy comes for more Next thing should be the Removing EV tax credit just on Tesla. Invest in Eastern Canada pipeline and refineries , Bring crude or finished product to Montreal and start sending to Europe. Even with higher cost to refine heavy Alberta crude, we can still bring cheaper gas to Europe given that we sell our crude at 57USD to States and USA sells to Europe at 70. In today's rate Canadian finished product (With heavy refine + high transportation cost) in USA is 73USD per barrel as compared to WTI (with lower refine cost + lower transportation cost) is 82 USD. At 2024 exports levels you saved 14.1 Billion dollars per year + all refinery jobs and reason for it is the heavy discount we gave to you on crude oil. Facts tells me you are the free loader. Yeah we are small and gonna be in bad shape But this does not ends well for you too either.

Just to be clear with our American buddies ..... Canadians don't crown our Prime Minister , they have to be the leader of the elected political party to become the Prime Minister eh .....

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, merci beaucoup! Your address to our proud nation Saturday night helped my family and me feel safer. It's much like during COVID-19 when you were there for Canadians at every step, every turn with initiatives and concrete help. Too bad we cannot procure masks and vaccines to ward off Trump-25. You, your Ministers and Premiers are working so hard trying to reason with a lunatic addicted to power and chaos and inform Americans of the facts. With prorogation, there have been no Poilièvre shenanigans to waste time on and your complete focus has been, as always, on protecting Canadians. For this I thank you again and tell you how much you will be missed in our household. Forgive a personal note: I hope you and Mme Grégoire will find your way back to each other when you can be a family without the heavy burden of this job, a job I know you love. And very personally - I shall miss the handsome, capable, well-spoken man of stature and intellect who also happens to be my Prime Minister. Vraiment!

Canadian Prime Mnister? Surely that would be Ex-Prime Minister. Surely a better approach would be to engage with Trump and deal with the issues he has that caused the imposition of tariffs!

So proud of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Us Canadians have been and continue to be privileged by Trudeau's leadership.

Why does the Canadian Prime Minister care so much about what would happen to US citizens? If it is so bad for Americans, then it is good for Canada right? So Canada should be cheering for tariffs.

Canadian here ... I'm so very proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Canadians stand united from the threat from the usa and are prepared to stay the course however long that is. Perhaps it's time Canada uncouples our economy from the usa and diversify asap ... We Canadians are already choosing Canadian products and boycotting all usa products

You're free loading days are over soon as we have a new prime minister, what is happening in the US will happen in Canada you want to be a Canadian you want to be American do it legally

I am Canadian and we have a terrible Prime Minister. He just resigned and have a 2025 election. The next guy is going to clean things up. Trust me. We do not want this happening either. ?

I don't care what anyone says, but Indian people, particularly (Punjabs) don't like to mixed with other cultures at all. They don't integrate with the Canadian lifestyle. They don't worked very hard, they are rude, they have no respect for other nationalities, racist as fuck, and the list goes on. I have been living in Canada for 34 years and I have never once felt isolated. Now, I feel like Canada has become India. I'm sorry, Trudeau have turned this Canada into a 3rd world Country. I missed Canadians! I don't have an issue with immigrants at all; as I am an immigrant myself from the Carribean. However, I have always respected Canadian culture and their laws. I'm sorry, India is the number one hated Country on the planet as we speak. England, Australia, & many other countries are not allowing Indian students to enter anymore. The proof is in the pudding! They are just bringing all their bad habits wherever they go. So it's not only Canada that's fed up, there are lots of Countries that cannot stand their attitude and erratic behavior. They have very low standards if you ask me.\n\nI can't wait for the day to see Canadians working the fast food &service industry again. No offense, but I rather be served by Canadians than Indians. I don't have to put up with their rudeness lack of communication skills. We all have have our opinions, but facts and numbers don't lie. Deport! Deport! Deport! I am also fed up with what they have done to this once, beautiful Country! Thank you Mr. Trudeau! The number one hated person in Canada and the worse Prime Minister is the history of Canadian politics! Indeed sad and depressing to say the least!

It's straight up frustration with our puppet prime minister. He's doing what the WEF & Dr scratchnsniff tells him to. Flooding a country with immigrants has increased homelessness & made getting a job impossible. Even more impossible is getting ahead financially. Indian people are coming over in droves, led by the lie that everything is better in Canada, and they're not adopting the Canadian culture & integrating unhealthy aspects of their third world culture. It also doesn't help that the only political figure who can help fix the problem is also East Indian but refuses to do anything because he doesn't want to lose his pension.\n\nWho i really feel bad for are the Indians who have lived here & integrated into the culture and feel like they're guilty by association. \n\nIf the Indian people were more adept to adopting the Canadian culture, the momentum shift would be insane.

Canada was the best country in the world . Trudeau has destroyed Canada and wrecked it beyond belief. Canada has an election this year, and Trudeau is done. Canadians hate the man . Pierre Poilievre will be the next Prime Minister of Canada, and he has promised to fix this mess . Close the borders and track down the elegals and deport them. And all these international students who refuse to leave they are going to be forcefully removed if they don't leave on their own. Canada is done with this crap .

Indeed, the worst Prime Minister. A liability and disgrace to Canada and Canadians.

The worst prime minister in Canadian history.

As a Canadian I apologize for this situation. It was created by our despised prime minister Justin turdeau and the liberal party. Turdeau sent a message stating 'Canada is open' causing a flood of migrants here too. We are also spending millions taking care of these people as well.

Wow the Canadian prime minister is a fraud himself a fraud catching a fraud?

Be prepared when our next Prime Minister takes over. Most of you are gonna be gone and we will get Canada back to being a Canadian Christian Country. And you have no one to blame but your own people for abusing the system for years and now Canadians and the Canadian government have turned on you so goodbye.

Canadian media also like their Prime Minister( Joker ). Do you really have brain. How are you asking a country to give visas to the separatists? You should become the 51st state of United States.

Donald TRUMP is every day insulting and Spitting on the Prime Minister of CANADA Trudeau but looks like Canadian Main Focus is on Khalistanis Welfare ????
