Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warned stopping shipments to Canada would be a mistake

A close-up photo of a N95 respirator mask, which are made by 3M, is seen here in San Francisco on March 30. The company is facing increased demand for the popular masks from countries around the world.

But the company, which calls itself a critical supplier of the masks to both markets, says there would be “significant humanitarian implications” to doing so. I just got off the phone with Ambassador Lighthizer regarding the U.S. government’s new order. The health and well-being of our frontline workers depend on these essential medical items and now more than ever our countries need to work together to combat COVID-19.The company was singled out for criticism Thursday by U.S. President Donald Trump, who has invoked the U.S.

Speaking like a real leader of Banana Republic.

Maybe Canada should stop sending paper from our pulp and paper industry to the States. Because that's what those masks are made from. There's other companies that make those masks. Fuck Trump

OH, NOW WHY WOULD THAT BE! TICKTOCK

The special pulp used to make these masks is made in Canada, and is the only place in the world that makes this specific pulp. It is made at Harmac on Vancouver Island. I think Trudeau should inform Trump that it would be unwise to fuck with us.

Although 3M cites humanitarian concerns if they obeyed Pres DumpTrump they did not categorically say they were not going to comply. That incredible wast of space has a lot to answer for!

Wow! Scared heck out of DT, I'll bet!

The mistake is not making the fucking masks HERE. So he should stop bitching and DO something to MAKE masks in CANADA.

How about telling JustinTrudeau and his cohort of useless fawning MSM to stop the non stop badgering and hateful biased coverage of Trump and his administration to start with .... Canada Govt and MSM made the bed .. now lie in it .... 🖕🏽.defundcbc CTVNews globalnews CBSNews

It’s a free market, asshole

Oh my gosh. Trudeau has spoken.

They were selling to the highest bidder, but why let facts get in the way now. Trump is taking care of his own country, something Trudeau has never done.

Posturing and bluster. Trump is doing right by Americans. Maybe Skippy could take a cue and start working for Canadians. Nah, that won't happen.

Nurses from Windsor work in Detroit because there are NO jobs in Windsor, not that they're helping 'them'! Without jobs in Detroit those nurses would be unemployed! JustinTrudeau will sure punish 'them' by stopping health care workers from going across the bridge. cdnpoli

Is that what that was ? A warning! He was asked if he tried to contact Trump, when he dodged the ? He was asked again to answer.... he dodged again.

Did he? What's he gonna do. Beat up America's fists with his face? And listen to Taiwan. Not our Uneducated fools in Ottawa.

Yes we need to work together. To share.

Warned? Trudeau Trump

This is NOT a prohibition on all N95 masks. Just the ones made in USA. Why the misleading headline?

The big mistake was made in 2015 when this corrupt UN loving government was elected in. F$%K Trudeau

We need to manufacture here on canada... cant rely on other countries .... so sad

Or what?

No shipping to other countries rather than taking care of your own was PMJT's mistake amongst a dozen others.

Stop sending hydro to new York an Michigan stop Canadian health workers from crossing boarder shut down highway 401 to America send no corn or soybeans no lumber

Yea it would be really bad for us considering you gave all of our stock pile away. This will be really bad for your re election, that is if you don’t resign first citing need more family time. lol JustinTrudeau

Is he going to stomp his feet?

I thought yesterdays stories about the Trump Admin taking supplies out from under allies were bad enough, but this is actually a step worse. Good on 3M for standing up. People won't going to forget this, that's one of the few guarantees we have right now

failed to mention that it was a Canadian company selling it back to the US for %700 mark up. So yes stop sending masks outside the US if you can't control your distributors. orange man bad, will kill everyone.. No it was a pos Canadian.

But what exactly will he do about it? The PM seems to have a lot of empty threats without substance.

3M to make more face masks, ramp up imports to U.S. after Trump orderThe company said it will work closely with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to prioritize orders for the masks Don’t let Americans in to Canada!!!! I’m happy to hear this production outside of China 🇨🇳 If Trudeau is smart enough, Canada should use its abundant sources such as grains and ethanol to exchange protectives with Taiwan and China. There is a rice and grains shortage looming in the world, especially in those populous countries. Australia has already been doing so.

Ontario, Alberta change policy limiting N95 masks as health-care workers demand greater accessInfection-control experts fear the move will lead to shortages and undercut trust in their advice that simpler surgical masks are good enough in most cases Unfortunately you cannot do that. Some of the “essential” services that are working with the chemicals required to make the ppe and the cleaners you want need to use the n95 filter as PPE for use with those chemicals so they don’t die making your PPE from the vapors.
