Summary
Trump’s new 25% tariffs on Canadian goods, along with threats of more on lumber and dairy, have sparked widespread backlash in Canada.
Canadians are boycotting American products, canceling U.S. trips, and rallying around “Buy Canadian” efforts. Ontario has banned U.S. liquor sales, and Premier Doug Ford threatened to cut electricity exports.
British Columbia’s premier vowed national unity against the tariffs. The federal government launched a $5 billion aid program for affected businesses.
Many Canadians see the tariffs as a betrayal and reject Trump’s taunts about making Canada the 51st state.
Yup.
Americans have made it perfectly clear “We are NOT Canada’s friend.”
So, …in words Americans can understand:
“Ya’ll can go fuck yourselves.”
You have declared to us, the USA is an enemy state. Bent on taking Canada over.
You voted on it.
It wasn’t even the trade war. It was the disrespect. It was the questioning of our sovereignty.
Friend can have disagreements. They can even have a fight. Biden tariffed softwood lumber. We didn’t get angry like this, because he never disrespected our country. But this time Trump went all meth head started talking shit about us. This isn’t a difference of opinion. This was made personal.
The US burnt our relationship to the ground and pissed on the ashes.

Treat it like the attack on York and go burn the house down again, the military probably wouldn’t even mind.
Canadians have two moods. The first is “I’m sorry”, the second is “You’ll be sorry.”
Second mood activated.
Canada has two sides of a coin, one is “I’m sorry” and the second is “we’re the reason for a lot of the Geneva Convention”
A Ukrainian has since broken the record but if you really piss off a Canadian they’ll say “sorry but fuck you” from 2 miles away.
Yes, we’re really proud of our long distance telecommunication. It’s like the sound of jungle drums, one ping only.
A Ukrainian that we trained.
I’ve been saying “Canadians are nice by choice, not because of something in the water.”
I like this one, too. I intend on stealing it and spreading it. #ElbowsUp
I’m still in the opinion that we should send corn beef as peace offering.
Friendly Americans, if you didn’t sign up for this divorce don’t just be sorry, be LOUD. Tell every representative you have just how much bullshit this is, and how un-American it is to turn on an ally.
For those that don’t, just know that silence is assent: you are agreeing to your government’s actions. And if that is the case, get bent, ya hoser.
I’ve been saying the same thing to every apologetic American; we don’t want your apologies, we want your anger.
If you’re so God damn sorry about this, put a stop to it. Until you do, your words mean nothing.
Exactly. Screw your thoughts and prayers, be our ally or don’t. No middle ground here.
I’m not even asking them to be our allies. I don’t need them to give a single flying fuck about us. We’ll take care of ourselves if we have to. I just need them to fix their God damn country before its too late, because that’s the one problem only they can solve.
The American business sector, and the idiots who voted Trump on the promise of financial gain, are about to learn a painful lesson.
They are going to learn that there are some things that you simply cannot walk back.
They are going to learn how long it takes Canadians to forget threats to their sovereignty.
They will learn that there is a tangible financial penalty for betrayal of allies.
There is no leeway here. If Americans are ever allowed to vote in a free election again, it is abundantly clear that one third of you will absolutely vote for more of this MAGA Insanity, and one third of you will absolutely, as demonstrated, sit on your asses and not vote against it.
We will never trust the collective You the People again for what you’ve done.
Trump: being Trump
Canada: “Oh, ya wanna fuckin’ go?!”
Canada throws down the hockey gloves.
Elbows up
Take off eh!
We didn’t start it. Trump did. Being polite doesn’t mean we are willing to take shit from anyone. We are polite to them, for their own protection.
I’m rooting for you, Canada. The US needs to reap the consequences of what we’ve sown.
It would be nice if the other half of Americans weren’t just standing around watching this happen, but thanks.
Don’t root for us, root for yourselves. We don’t need your moral support, we need you guys to put a stop to your country’s slide into fascism before its too late.
Funny thing is Florida is quiet on this, they know they will be hurting from all the tourism money they won’t be getting from Canadians, rightfully so.
DeSantis tried to play it off by pointing out how many Canadians still chose to visit Florida anyway… In 2024.
So, apparently he thinks we have time travel.
In 2024.
Helpfully highlighting the baseline so that we can see how much it changes over time.
Yeah, ironically by bragging about how much of their tourism comes from Canada he’s just telling us how much they have to lose.
Florida isn’t quiet, their governor used the 2024 tourism stats to mock Canadians boycott of the US, which, you know, started in 2025.
It’s a new era, indeed.
I’m enjoying the fact that the comments went from support Canada to an intro class on US linguistics. Love it!!
Nah, Canadians couldn’t even defend their own truckers…
Sorry, which truckers are we defending?
Please tell me you don’t mean the Flu Trucks Klan that belligerently blocked trade routes over a need to act like responsible grownups, to vaccinate, and to act like there was an actual pandemic. The ones who started fires in homes through letter boxes, who sounded their horn all night while people were sleeping, who blocked emergency vehicles - and there’s a special place in hell for that - and attacked tow operators ordered to keep routes clear?
Those truckers? Because those guys can eat shit all day.
They have tried to wake ppl up, but you didn’t. Current news is talking about what truckers could (might) have a point. And the jabs are not effective.
Now All y’all are going to take the trackers place to do stupid things. But no one going to listen to you.
We are all played out, and just not recognizing that…
The truckers that Putin funded, and a scam artist stole their funds those truckers, good riddance
Those chucklefucks are not Canadian.
I don’t know that. Sorry for my rumble.
