At this point, I'm over every culture. We have been conditioned in the West to think that we have no culture, we need to embrace, worship, and accept everyone else's culture. Really over it. We have built a beautiful way of life in the western world and we should work harder to preserve it. I've been to India. Although I like most Indians that come to our part of the world, WE DO NOT WANT OUR COUNTRY TURNING INTO INDIA (or any other country/culture for that matter). Assimilate, get with the program, or GTFO. Enough is enough. Americans, Canadians, Europeans..stand up for your country and culture before it is completely erased. If we decided to move to any of these third world countries and pull the same crap, locals would be up in arms.

As an American I stand with Canada. I’m ashamed to be an American.

I’m an American and I stand with Canada. They need to raise taxes on the wealthy and stop trying to avoid the inevitable.

I´m from Germany and I think Trudeau shows how to be a real leader, not a showmaster. What makes me thougtful is to see the Republicans cheering to Donalds inhumane statements. We Germans historicaly know, that this kind of right wing politics can lead to a real desaster. I don´t understand, why only such a little number of americans are standing up and demonstrate for their rights und safe their democracy. This could all end very bad.

I'm American and stand with Canada and Ukraine.

I’m an American. I love our home. I love our people. I love our land. I love our principles.\n\nAnd it’s for all those reasons that I support Canada, Mexico, the European nations, and all the other sane countries around the world that are hitting back against these maniacs driving my homeland into the gutters of history.\n\nEven as a leftist, I’ve had my fair share of criticisms for Mr. Trudeau, Mr. Starmer, and Mr. Macron as well as the other leaders of the EU. But now, bygones are bygones. In Americans’ moment of need, it’s clear that three folks care more about the United States and our values than the Republicans ever will.\n\nThank you for standing on the right side of what will certainly be one of the most important moments in modern American history.

As an American, I’m deeply sorry for what we’ve become by electing this orange idiot into the White House. I stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, and the rest of our global allies in opposition to our “president’s” bent to authoritarianism and isolationism. I truly hope that we can course correct before we (globallly) plunge into something much darker. \n\nKudos to prime minister Trudeau and other leaders speaking truth and calling the situation we’re now in for what it is.

??❤ I'm an American grandchild of a couple from Brighton, Ontario. I stand with my Canadian cousins and friends.

I'm from the Netherlands, Canada you rock! We stand by you and Ukraine ?. We planned a family vacation to America this year and after the fight with Zelenski we annuled it immediately. Not going to spend my hard earned money in a country that defends a murderous dictator. Americans, I know it's Donald and the republicans, and that most of you don't want this. I hope the tides will turn quickly

I’m an American as well. And I’m with Canada 10000% we the people in the US (most of us) stand with y’all. What the current administration is doing with this country is truly shameful. And I as an American apologize in behalf of our government. May god bless all of us.

As an American I’m soooooo happy Canada is standing up to this dumb loser president and his side chick Elon musk ?

I’m seeing a lot of comments saying ‘just move there,’ which makes no sense and is such a lazy response. Immigration isn’t as simple as packing a bag—there are legal, financial, and logistical hurdles, especially right now. Supporting another country’s stance doesn’t mean you have to leave your own. As an American, I stand with Canada on this.

i’m an american. i stand with canada

I'm American and we do not want this! We stand against the tangerine tyrant!

Mr. Trudeau, as an American, I sincerely apologize and I'm truly embarrased and ashamed of what my country has done ?. This is a sorrow moment and on behalf of all my American brothers and sister who are just as appalled, we stand with you! Don't forget about us

I’m going to be sick please don’t leave us here with this despicable excuse for a monster we have “running” our country and his whole cabinet full of unhinged, uneducated, bullies and bigots…. \n\nThis is the end of the USA… and what’s worse..? My our fellow Americans voted that criminal, narcissist, pig into office… and he will now eliminate everything we were and everything we once stood for…. No love. No diplomacy. No promise of a better life. No fighting Climate crisis. No belief in science. No allies standing hand in hand against evil. \n\nThis is it…that monster is the end of us by the time these 4 years are up…bravo American citizens… look at what you have done.

As an American I stand with Canada and Mexico there’s some of us that don’t agree with what this government is doing. And as an American we shouldn’t stand with Russia that’s wrong. I’m sorry to all the countries out there that are taken effect by our circus of a government.

I’m American! I stand for Prime Minister Traddeu

I’m American ?? and I’m ashamed, this is pitiful. I stand with our Allies Canada ??, Ukraine ??

To the Canadian people: I will look out and specifically purchase Canadian goods over American goods as a sign of disagreement with the American President. Mr. Trump is only out for HIMSELF! Most Americans know this. I don't believe in conspiracy theories, but I'm starting to believe that Russia DID interfere with our election, and Trump is that result! I'm utterly DISGUSTED with what they're doing. I stand with UKRAINE ?? and with Canada ?? as well as all our Allies! We need to impeach that Maggat in the Oval!

Dear Canada. We the people the good citizens of these divided states do not condone what trump is putting your country and the rest of the world through! More than 80% of us hate trump and his evil lawless deeds! We are no longer free here! We are under the thumbs of an evil dictator and his panzy the riches man in the world! They are destroying this country bit by bit and quickly! They and the republicans in congress have sided with them! I’m am saddened that you great friends and all citizens are no facing his dictatorship follies! trump is not American! He never has been! Musk worked his magic with skylink and stole the votes from the democrats! Erased millions of our votes east as pie! I respect mr trudou and we hear his plea! His sorrow and I hope he and all who read this in Canada realize that the hood American here never wanted this but we can’t stop him with the way he and our judicial system is erasing our constitution! It’s eroding daily as if it never existed!! We are truly sorry for the pain he’s putting you through! Know that the 80 percent of Americans still stand with Canada Mexico Ukraine the EU and the rest of the world he’s punishing ?

Thank you to our American friends who stand with us and everyone around the world. I’m so proud to be Canadian.

Lol love how he said “Donald” and not “President Trump.” Perfect for a ? deserving of NO respect. Barely 2 months in office and this ? is already turning us into an isolated, reviled nation seen as nothing but a gang of mercenary bullies by the rest of the sane world. I’m an American and I turn my back on this madness. I stand with sanity, justice and truth. I stand with Canada and Ukraine. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Please know that not all Americans back our felon in chief. I don't understand how he got back in office, but I'm proud of Canada for standing your ground. Don't give in to him!

As an American citizen, I stand with Canada and Ukraine. Trump is not what we stand for, I’m so ashamed.

I'm a Mexican American and I stand with Canada.

I'm Ukrainian-American, and my husband is retired from US Marine Corps. We stand with Canada ?? \nThanks to everyone who supports Ukraine ??

I'm American. I stand with Canada!

I'm an American with some family ties to Canada and I'm deeply ashamed of how my government under Trump is systematically destroying it's historic relationships with almost all our allies. Trump and his cronies are only interested in the use of raw power to dominate the current geo-political reality. Thank you Trudeau for speaking so bluntly and honestly and for standing up to our bully-in-chief.

I am an American but I stand by Canada do you say I'm a traitor? no the traitor is living in the White House, now put that in your pipe and smoke it ?

Clown, excused convicted sexual assaulter trumpet needs to be removed for destroying our country ?. I'm an American and stand with Canada !!!!

I m not American but live in US and I stand with Canada!

American here. Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m so grateful that you are standing up to this. I will endure any hardship this brings me personally. Stay strong! Best regards from Michigan!!

I'm an American and I stand with my President. The rest of you should pack up and go to Canada or Ukraine

Well said. I love the USA, I have relatives who live there and in all the years of a beautiful relationship with the people of America I have never seen this situation. Mr. Trump you seem to want to conquer and divide relationships at any cost, even with people who care about you. You sabotage yourself and those who are loyal to you. I'm not sure if you understand the implications of your decisions. But I will say respectfully, there are no winners in a trade war, nor is it you that has the final say on the worlds outcome. This is God's world not yours and not ours. I'm really disappointed to see American people and Canadians hurting because of whatever the point of all of this means. But Canada is strong and we will stand up for our country. The American people are strong and they were strong before you became the President. Working together, we can take care of each other for our families and our country.

As a Minnesotan, I feel as if I’m almost as Canadian as American and proud to say so. Our present sitting president and buffoon unelected sidekick Musk are creating chaos everywhere for the sake of billionaire donors and supporters. Absolutely none of what Trump/Musk has done and plans to continue to do is beneficial to a single non-wealthy American and these actions will harm his personal voters (of which I’ve never been one!) the most. Trump cares not. Pervasive narcissistic sociopathy is not curable! Stand strong Canada! We’re trying mightily to defeat this insanity here in the USA! 74 million people did not vote for any of this harm and destruction and outright cruelty!

I'm sorry about this viscous & needless act! I'm an American & I understand completely why Canadian's are upset. I also understand why you're going to retaliate, if you didn't, then I'd question your leadership. Canada has to do what's right for its people and Americans will understand why Canada has to do whatever it has to do for its People and Country. Trump's plan to make Canada the 51st State is by putting economic pressure on Canada until it can't stand anymore. This is his plan and now you can prepare Canadians for the fight ahead. God Bless Canada!!!

I'm an American. I stand with you, Canada, do not back down to this egotistical buffoon we have as president.

I’m American & I did NOT VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP! I stand with you Canada! Do what you need to do!?

I'm an American that stands with Canada.

I’m a CAN/US dual citizen, my feelings are pretty mixed… but this time, I’m standing with Canada. Big thanks to those American friends who are standing with Canadians.

I'm an American and I totally stand with Canada

I'm an American and I stand by Canada on this!! ?? ??

I’m an American and I stand with Canada, Ukraine, and Mexico!

I’m an American and I stand with Canada, and all our former allies! I’m so sorry and embarrassed to be American right now

Did they MAGA? No, so let's move forward from this, America! We ALL need to agree to be American 1st. Our safety is at serious risk, but we can still get the train back on track, if Congress can ALL agree to put America before any other internal disagreement. If The SCOTUS and the Judicial System will do the same. It isn't too late, YET. It's time to right the ship and our allies will support us, if our people will stand up, against the harm that this Administration is doing to ALL of us, as a whole. It's leaking hate into every aspect of our country. We're inundated with it and it's spilling out, into the world, affecting our standing.\n\nWe need an Administration where we can have normal disagreements and figure how to resolve them....find HOPE again. I'm tired of feeling despair. America, be the leader of Democracy. Keep your word!\n?⚪?

I’m American. We are appalled and disgusted with Trump. Please know we love Canada and wish this was not happening. We stand with you and with all the good people in the world.

That's what a leader sound like!! I'm an American Veteran but as long as trump and all that trash he brung to the WH I will never stand with America except in shame...

Terriffs are nothing new though. I think it's insane that America's have to consistently payout our tax dollars to other countries. The President is wanting these other countries to step up to the plate and do their part. It's okay for them to let cartels and fentanal come into our countries and kill Americans by the masses. I'm sorry I'm American born and will put America 1st. Stand 10 toes down and not be a dang traitor. Americans are so quick to change sides when shit get a little rough. But haven't spoke up and said shit for years. Now we have someone shaking things up and we tuck tail and support a whole other country. Pathetic

I’m an American and I stand with America pay up Canada!!!
