Thanks to mr Trump.

I believe and respect President Trump! Also thank you Mr Elon Musk for doing a great job.God bless both of you.

TRUTH!! The truth hurts Trump’s plan of chaos!! Thank you Mr. Trudeau; Republicans need to hear the TRUTH and end the misinformation! There is no end to the illogical actions that Trump is making but tariffs have been proven to result in a recession. Cutting thousands of jobs of people making $18/hr is insane!! Now, the government can pay unemployment and healthcare for people who were paying taxes! Then there is revenue lost because National Parks and Federal common spaces are closed. Then there was the this: CDC restricted from updating Americans on the latest epidemiologist reports on Covid, bird flu, the chickenpox outbreak in Texas, flu, and every other potential pandemic virus. Women and children will die as a result of this action! \nAgain, illogical anctions along with Trump aligning himself with Putin and every other dictator. He can move to Russia if he wants to live his life under Putin. He treats everyone the same; expendable!

Mr Trump ...youre a mean one Mr Grinch ...im proud to be canadien ...Mr Trudeau thank you for your speech ?

You know what, I still can't believe the Americans were stupid enough to elect trump. And according to the recent poll I saw on CNN 50% of Americans like what he's doing, and only something like 34% see Russia as an enemy. So far from being an accident, trump with his stupid ideas was elected on purpose. The stupidity over there seems to be deep-rooted. I think we all need to take a step back and re-think our relationship with this adolescent nation which has always been a bit gauche but has now definitely gone rogue. Well spoken Mr Trudeau. Thank God for you and Canadians.

Thanks so much for your advice Teacher Mr. Trudeau. When we Americans need some more lecturing about what you think is best for us, we'll be sure to ask. Obviously, you know what is expected of you regarding the border but haven't done it to the satisfaction of USA leadership. In the interim, do your best imitation of a liberal and cry us a river. And Justin, just so you now, our president's name is President Trump for you, not 'Donald'.

Russia has successfully taken control over the USA thanks Mr. Trump

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for exposing Trump for who he and the Republican Party are - greedy traitors!

Thank you Mr. President! Nothing but respect! You are a class act, a fine example of what a man with character and common sense should act like… Trump is very jealous because he’s such a toddler constantly throwing temper tantrum‘s, he has no respect for anyone not even himself. Most of us stand with Canada and agree with you… It’s unfortunate we have a common criminal sitting in our oval office… God help us all ????

Compare Trump and Mr Trudeau purely on their demeanour and the words that they speak. Mr Trudeau has demonstrated here that he is a skilled statesman, he can speak coherently and powerfully. He's not spouting ridiculous insults in the face of Trump's tariffs. He may have fallen out of favour in Canada, but as a British citizen looking in, he stands head and shoulders above Trump and Vance. Thank you for your service Mr Trudeau.

Several generation American here. I do not want this. I stand with Canada! Not Russia, not Trump, not the DC freak show. Thank you Mr Trudeau

I am a naturalized American citizen and a veteran. NO to a Russian dictator. I am with Canada, our neighbors, friends and partners. I will fight for you without hesitation. I stand with Ukraine and their fight against the Russian invaders.\nI never voted for Trump and I am sick, horrified and ashamed of this current administration. Stay strong and thank you to Mr. Trudeau for this great lesson in statemanship.

World only recognizes the power of money and economy , America is the largest economy in the history . America is not Charity to help other over its people interests . Thank you Mr. president Trump . I wish my country leaders love their country as you do to your country . Salute Mr. President Donald Trump

Thank you Mr. President . Donald Trump is for only the rich and for Putin.

I'm with Mr. Trudeau! Thank you good sir! Make Trump pay for his mistakes! The American people will soon tell Trump and his despicable minions to take a hike. Let's pray for their wisdom.

Thank you Mr. Trudeau. We reasonable Americans appreciate our good neighbors in Canada. I'm willing to suffer in order to get rid of Trump.

Great speech Prime Minister. Thank you. And Donald does not deserve to be called President or even the respect to be called Mr. Trump. He is not. He is a Bully. I am glad you called him Donald. I am sure a lot of people have another name for him right now. I am a proud Canadian. I do not blame the American people. Just those who put Donald in power and those who work with him and support him. I love the US and hope and pray we will get through this together.

OMG, now Trump is going to send his lapdog Mr Vance to screem “Apologise to the president, You never say thank you, you disrespect this country USA, You never appreciate what we do for Canada”.

Tariffs are a way for Trump to get rid of Trudeau, thank you Mr President.

Please, Mr. Trudeau, please say that Donald Trump is the culprit, not America in its entirety. We are protesting the takeover of our country and will not cease trying to get rid of this administration that has hijacked our country. We too want to work with you and will support your actions as best we can. Your strong speech shows which country has a leader to follow. Thank you.

Thank you Mr. Prime Minister for an incredibly important and well read speech! One thing though....Donald Trump is NOT SMART!! Donald Trump cares about Donald Trump! He cares about RETRIBUTION against people who dislike or laugh at him. He is a GIANT NARCISSIST and a PATHOLOGICAL LIAR!! He would rather be BUDDIES with DICTATOR Vladimir Putin than with any allies! Trump is TANKING the economy and CRASHING the Stock Market which also includes people's retirement funds. DONALD TRUMP IS 100% A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER!!! HE NEEDS TO BE IMPEACHED, REMOVED, AND IMPRISONED!!! HIS ENTIRE ADMINISTRATION SHOULD BE REMOVED FOR GOING ALONG WITH TRUMP!! THEY ARE ALL ACCOMPLICES!!!\n\nTIME TO WIPE THE SLATE CLEAN, SWEAR IN KAMALA HARRIS AS SHE WAS THE RUNNER UP, AND FIX WHAT DONALD TRUMP DESTROYED!!!

Trudeau is so handsome and smart and good. I wish he was our leader here in the US. Can you come here and help us, please? We need help. I understand why you have to fight back against Trump. I can't stand Trump and what he and our government is doing but I don't know how to stop it. I sure didn't vote for him. Thank you Mr. Trudeau for all of your great work and commitment and governance. I stand with Canada.

Thank you Mr. Trudeau for your comments. As an American, I am ashamed of Americans that follow Trump. Its all him. Anyone with a brain knows the people will suffer high prices. Its not what Americans want.

Thank you Mr. Trudeau I personally stand with progress.\n And Donald Trump is not progress.\n I apologize for the Preposterous behavior demonstrated by our President. To President zelinski. I also apologize for Trump. And I cannot wait until he is removed. We must do it legally and democratically. As far as our allies, Canada and Mexico.\nIt is my opinion donald trump is entering dementiand it's not fit for office

Thank You Mr. Trudeau, for standing up for Democracy and the standing up to the baffon Trump,

Thank you Mr Trudeau for your calm and honest words that Trump is out of control and obviously more interested in kowtowing to Putin than preserving our relationship with our allies.

The axis of evil is Donald Trump. Thanks, Mr Trudeau.

Coming from Northern California wine country in Calistoga California, I say I am with you Mr Trudeau thank you for standing up to trump who is very insane god speed

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, thank you. The Trump administration is so mental ill.

Now they’re not gonna care about fentanyl coming into America and are just gonna leave it up to Mr. Trump to deal with it. They spent billions of dollars and our president isn’t even acknowledging that fact, but instead sensationalizing things for his own benefit. Thanks for increasing the flow of fentanyl President Trump!

Such a good man, who has chosen to worship GOD, and NOT TRUMP! THANK YOU, Mr. Prime Minister!!

Thanks to everyone who voted for Mr Trump I hope you're happy!

We love you, Mr. Prime Minister ♥️ Trump is an EVIL, AWFUL person! Thank you for standing AGAINST him!!

Thank you Mr Trudeau, from a US citizen, for speaking THE TRUTH and acting like a real leader of a country who is one of our friends and allies. Trump is an idiot who is taking our country into a spiraling disaster.

The reason for this 'trade war' is not about 'trade'. It's about 'creating chaos' so that president Trump is the 'centre' of world attention. A malignant naracistic individual apparently cannot have anyone seemingly to be 'doing better' or being more successful than he is. Canada ?? is a very successful nation and because of its economic success it is creating envy and apparently hatred in certain individuals who view the success of Canada ?? as a threat to themselves. The USA now apparently cannot see the value of a strong and stable economy as its near neighbours. Thats why apparently there are some who now want to crash the Canadian economy and when times then 'get tough' the blame and responsibility for this chaos will be accepted by whom. Presidents and Prime Ministers come and go. Once their 'term is over' they simply 'walk away'. World leaders need to be men or women of integrity and honesty who 'do the right thing'. With 'great power' comes 'great responsibility'. You only 'give responsibility' to someone who has the wisdom and expertise and understanding in order to both 'hold' and 'govern' wisely and without fear or favor. Maybe its time for others in positions of authority in other institutions to step in and 'take control'. You would never let a child drive a super car on the highway so how much 'damage' has to happen before a world leader is not 'held to account' and his 'hands removed' from the steering wheel before there is a motor accident so large that the freeway is rendered unless and has to be totally shut down your. You cannot have total power in the hands of individuals who apparently do not possess the necessary skills knowledge and experience and wisdom that is required to fulfil the role they were elected to fulfil. A person with the mind and mentality of a child apparently is not a fit person to be running the economy of any nation. May Canada ?? remember its roots and may we all be thankful for true and honest leaders who have integrity and do and say the right thing. Thank you Mr Prime minister. I trust that King Charles III has heard what his Canadian prime minister has said and what he is doing with total integrity.

He’s the common sense president….helping Russia and blasting allies. Makes total perfect sense, right?! We clearly have our common sense way…thank you Mr Trump for showing us who your real ally is. We needed this lesson for the help we gave on 911 etc. shame on us! I hope we’ve learnt a valuable lesson.

Thank you Mr Trudeau for standing up to Trump. We are all proud of you.

We stand wirh Mr President TRUMP, Canada has been taking advantage of us thanks to biden but not anymore

Thank You Mr Prime Minister, You Saud Exactly what needed to be said at this time, tRump gave Canada, Mexico, China no option but retaliation or comply.. Canada will retaliate as we don't have a Bully that is an Oligarchy Driven Maniac at the helm..\nVote ?? Every Time!!! ??❤✌

Thank you Mr. Trudeau. Wish we had politicians of your caliber. And do what you have to do to help our people see how bad Trump and his ilk are for the US, the rest of us will be ready to heal our friendship when we can get rid of him.

Thank yor Mr Trudeau for standing up for CNada against the aggressive Trump and his gangs.. I am very proud to be a Canadian. Unfortunately for our world, Trump , joined by murderer Putin, are trying to destroy our peaceful life. \nThank you very much Mr Trudeau. 21:01

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

As a South African, I'm SO impressed with Mr Trudeau . Those are the world leaders we need. USA , Trump, has overplayed his hand. Thanks to Musk's advice USA is Sinking

Thank you Mr president TRUMP and your fantastic team. Go doge good job. CNN SUCKS just saying

Justin Trudeau with iron in his voice. Thank you, Mr President. As a British person on my side of the Pond, these are welcome and necessary words. Let us all in Britain and in Europe echo Mr Trudeau's sentiments. We want our friendship with America back, intact, but it requires the removal of Trumpism and fascism from the American psyche. American democracy can come back better and stronger in the absence of its current madness and malaise. Trump is not a President. He is a Pretendident.

I live in the United States, and you have no choice but to take this action regarding our country. Mr. Trudeau, I fully support your decision to impose tariffs on my country; you have no other choice A madman holds us captive. More than half of the country feels the same way as I do. We are furious that our Republican senators and Congress are siding with Trump and Vladimir Putin. Thank you for holding our 'president' accountable when both the Trump administration and the GOP Senate and Congress fail to do so ??

Thank Mr. Trump for this disaster and its insulting attitude toward our friend and ally Canada….this is who we voted into office…..a sad day in US history! Trump acts on impulse ….on almost everything….no thought process…..no discussion with his “Yes” cabinet of puppets who rubber stamps everything Trump wants. The Prime Minister is spot on…..but Mr. Trump is unable and unwilling to act like an adult.

Lmfao thanks Mr Trump now I know how to be an idiot ?

Thank you for sending us this speech. I wholeheartedly agree and support you! As an American, 81 year old woman, I have never seen such a terrible president. Mr trump has always dreamed of being a dictator Never have I been so disgusted in my life. I, did, not vote for this person that I hate with all my being. I hope someone fixes this before I die of being sick of him! He is not only against most of the world, he is also against the people that he is supposed to protect!

Thank you Mr. President Trump American citizens are done with people coming in here illegal and breaking our laws
