Fumed over Donald Trump's tariffs, Canadians cancel trips to US, ban American booze

Justin Trudeauprime Minister

No one—on either side of the border—wants to see American tariffs on Canadian goods. I met with our Canada-U.S. Council today. We're working hard to prevent these tariffs, but if the United States moves ahead, Canada's ready with a forceful and immediate response."

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau posted on X, formerly Twitter, on Friday

Our CANADIAN family of four just canceled our trips to Disney World. I will not step foot in the United States until this storm passes. I love my American friends and family, but I just don't have it in me to spend thousands of dollars in the USA while Canada is treated this way."

There is a huge influx of posts due to the tariffs, ... This is not an 'Anti-Trump' subreddit, so please keep that discussion civil. And while posts regarding his actions are definitely relevant, a post just ranting about him is not. This is a Pro-Canada subreddit."

A recent post by the thread's admin said that ... and continued that

I don't remember the last I've seen ALL Canadians united in this way. Liberal, Conservative, White, Black, whatever, we are all on the same page."

But sentiment was not entirely negative, with one user posting

A request to our American friends who are here to apologize, ... Please find a more productive way of dealing with your guilt and stop offloading it onto us through apology posts. Go fight for your country."

One popular was titled ... and continued that

I'm probably going to reduce the tariff a little bit on that. We think we're going to bring it down to 10 percent."

Trump, speaking to reporters on Friday

CANCELED my vacation to America. ALL future vacations will be in Europe/Asia/Mexico. F*** THEM ALL."

One user wrote

We were going to Maui in March for family vacation. Just canceled everything. We will find another place to travel, ... We had planned for a three-week trip to Chicago, Nashville, Tennessee, and various other places later this year. It has been on the bucket list for years, ... Hopefully once Trump is out of office and things return to normal, we can try again."

We mustn’t let Donald Trump bully the UK or our close ally Canada, who we share a head of state with. Trump’s tariffs on our Commonwealth partner are a shocking way to treat a country that stood alongside both the US and the UK during the Second World War.”

Sir Ed said

We need to work with our allies in the Commonwealth and Europe to stand strong against Trump and remind him that we are America’s longest standing friends. So the Prime Minister should invite Commonwealth leaders to London as soon as he returns from Brussels, to discuss a joint response to the global trade war Trump is unleashing.”

He added

We're not going to America at all,

Like the American tariffs, our response will also be far-reaching."

There's nothing I can do about this quagmire that we now find ourselves in politically with the regime next door,

It feels like Trump wants to restructure the world order,

Drew Dilkens, mayor of the Canadian border city of Windsor, said in an interview

There will be job losses in this country ... we know that's going to happen,

she said

I think we have to recognize our quarrel is not with the American people... for many of our families, our relatives on the other side of the 49th parallel are still our friends and relatives,

I don't think there are a lot of Americans who wake up in the morning saying, 'Oh, damn Canada. Oh, we should really go after Canada,

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau remarked Saturday, encapsulating the shell shock many north of the border are now feeling

I'm disappointed that [the] Trump admin placed the 25 percent tariffs, ... I'm disappointed that this is our government's response

he posted on X

Will there be some pain? Yes, maybe (and maybe not!) But we will make America great again, and it will all be worth the price that must be paid.”
