I’m so sorry to hear of Jason’s father’s passing. Canada’s healthcare system is a nightmare.

Why such a small reduction? WE NEED TO STOP IMMIGRANTS POURING INTO CANADA NOW. THERE ARE WAY, WAY TOO MANY HERE

Let me off the ride. I dont the canadian government. Elbows up is destroying canada

Canada is MINE, AND MINE ALONE.

Liberals have killed canada.

Because immigration has become so out of control in Canada nobody trusts Canadians anymore. 😢🇺🇲🇨🇦

Over 150 Canadians have been "detained" by ICE and FOUR CANADIANS were MURDERED in ICE "custody". Who cares about crossing the border into the USA unless there is some MUST reason. Fight for Canada, or LEAVE!

Canada is lawless Punjab now

Trump is doing all these crazy things but he is forgetting one HUGE thing. Canada & many other countries are Allies of America & while he's talking about tariffs & goodness knows what (I did watch his talk in Congress), at least respect your Allies. Trump is sleeping with the enemy & in all my years, I've never seen an American President turn on their Allies like this. He is a dangerous man for all the wrong reasons. I feel badly for the American people whom will be stuck between a rock & a hard place. I feel for the Canadian's whom don't deserve this. Trudeau speaks so genuinely & politely where Trump yells 'this is the way things will be'. \nI don't look forward to the next 4 years & many in my country (Australia) have said they won't even go to America while Trump is in Office. We have always loved Canada. We 'gather at Whistler' then go travel. Great country. Much love from your Aussie mates ❤❤

As a german i hope Canada can joyn the EU or at least the european trading zone. When one of the most powerful countries in the world turns to fascism and tyranny it's time to stick together

A Filipino strongly support Canada vs dumb Donald

As a Ukrainian I can draw some parallels between putin's policy toward my country and Donald's policy toward Canada. \nWe experienced gas & oil Russian war against Ukraine\nDonald began tariff's war against Canada\nPutin sees my country as his domain \nDonald says openly exactly the same about Canada

Why is he acting like Trump has just nuked Canada and going to invade. I think his negative Trump bias is effecting his judgement and behaviour. Instead of doing a media opportunity to show everyone what a good little leader he is and that Trump is a very bad man. Why not try sit-down and have a rational and pragmatic talk and negotiate new trade relations first, instead trying to cause more up-evil and resentment.

Go Canada , stick it to that vile moron

I'm Australian. I stand with Canada.

From the tiny Pacific Island of Papua New Guinea ??, we stand with you Canada and Ukraine.. ??..Hope the people of USA come to their senses and stand up against what this President is doing to their country..

Many years ago, Trudeau helped the Trump administration to backlog Ms. Meng Wanzhou, the daughter of Huawei's CEO. Now Trump wants to increase tariffs on Canada. This was just a few months ago. After Trudeau visited Trump, Trudeau was really embarrassed. No wonder Xi Jinping said Trudeau was very naive. It seems that there is a reason.??

Funny thing is Canada people have been trying to get ride of this bum. Know one cares what he has to say even his own people…. Why isn’t CNN reporting that??

I hope Canada find other countries to get the supplies they usually get from US. Do not despair, you can resist four years until that scumbag is no longer in power.

This guy turned Canada into New India.

Trump attacking the poor, in Canada and US. Only billionaires will win from Trump’s actions.

American here... Canada can I come live with you? I promise I didn't vote for this crap!

Greetings from Poland - Canada is doing the right thing, cant back down. Trump is creating a coalition against USA, instead of against China. \nI’ve been to Canada a few times and you people are great. Stay strong

From India, wish we had a prime minister like Trudeau! One who shows integrity, strength and sensibility. Support & respect to Canada, Ukraine & EU!

You said everything, Mr. Trudeau! I stand with Canada and the Ukraine... real leaders!

Justin ! you weren't able to protect and run the country when times were easy , when Germans begged you for LNG ! Back than you told them Canada doesn't have the infrastructure to load it into vessels . Guess what? neither Germany had that , but they;ve built in 3 MONTHS !! When you went to India it looked like you were there to go clubbing or dancing instead of looking for contracts or investments, either Canadian to India or viceversa . Now , looking for some other markets when USA is getting closed, its difficult . Nice words ,by the way , but action is what we need .

The biggest joke is trudeau and canada, Period!

Now that's what I call a leader. We're with you all the way Canada, stay strong and stand up for yourselves. I can't say the UK government is going to follow through with their current tough stance but can can only cross our fingers that the UK and the rest of Europe stand with us all. Good luck. ?

Justin Trudeau absolutely destroyed Canada's economy

Nah Canada been taking advantage of us , you're fired Justin ! We MAGA all day !

We love you Canada!!

Yaaay! Go Canada eh! From New Zealand

How is it ok for canada put tariffs on American stuff but not ok that America to put tariffs on Canadian stuff.

US citizen here retired and living in SE Asia. Trump, Musk, Vance and the enabling cowardly Republicans in congress are traitors destroying the US from within for the benefit of Putin, just as Khrushchev foretold in the 1950s. Trump and his enablers are the real enemy of the US!! Canada is our best friend. Let's hope something can be done to stop this convicted felon and rapist!! Sorry we have such assholes in power in the US!!

We stand with you Trudeau and Canada ?? Greatings from Germany ❤

Canada don’t have alliances any more ????

Canada's Rahul Gandhi ?

Trump is trying to bring Canada down so Canada will think of capitulation to US Trump thinks

I don't want it either!!!! Will be packing and leaving soon! Stand with Canada!

we will travel this year to Canada, and i can't wait to meet this proud people, stand up against USA

If Canada taxes its own citizens to do business then why can’t United States tax Canada when they do business with America… and VICE VERSA… This is just business… It’s not a trade war no more than it is when citizens tax each other to do business… Is that a war amongst citizens??‍♂️

I stand with Canada. From North Carolina

Dangerous times we are living in I am not a fan of benign in bad terms with my neighbors trump. Exclude CANADA FROM TARIFF

Based on the trade data, Canada would likely be in a worse position in a trade war with the United States. Here's why:\n\n1. Canada sends approximately 75% of its total exports to the US, while the US only sends about 18% of its exports to Canada. This creates a significant asymmetry in dependency.\n\n2. The US economy (around $27 trillion) is roughly 13 times larger than Canada's economy (about $2.1 trillion), giving the US more cushion to absorb economic shocks.\n\n3. he US typically runs a trade deficit with Canada (approximately $135 billion in goods in 2023), which means Canada sells more to the US than it buys, making Canadian producers more vulnerable to US tariffs.\n\n4. The US has more diversified export markets globally, while Canada is heavily reliant on the US market.\n\nThat said, a trade war would harm both countries:\n\n- Highly integrated supply chains, especially in automotive manufacturing, would be disrupted\n- Border regions in the US would face significant economic impacts\n- US consumers would face higher prices for Canadian goods (energy, raw materials)\n- Specific US industries dependent on Canadian inputs would face challenges\n\nWhile Canada would likely face more severe macroeconomic consequences, a trade war would ultimately be lose-lose, damaging industries and consumers on both sides of the border.

Thank you Canada

This man is telling the truth! I STAND WITH CANADA . I’m a US ARMY VETERAN AND IM ASHAMED OF WHAT THE ADMINISTRATION IS DOING . Canada please give us to time to contact our government. It’s very dumb . It’s what Russia want , the enemy . Mr. president(Canada ) THANKS FOR BEING A GREAT LEADER .

He did not mince words, well said, brilliant response, world leaders take note. Polite but tough, well done Canada!

The USA does not need Canada but Canada needs USA you Canadian stand up on your own

Yes only a dumb person would do this.he turn is back on Canada because he thinks he can buy friend from Russia

Trudeau has had his share of critics during his tenure. But he's always had Canada and its' people in his best interest. While he was forced to resigned as many members of this cabinet was losing faith in him, this is his last week in office with nothing to lose. During these past few weeks, he has been a true champion by rallying the whole country and uniting us closer than I've ever seen. This speech was exactly what we Canadians all feel. Mic Drop! Thanks for the heartfelt comments from around the world.
