good times make weak men, the prosperous 80's and 90's and early 2000's had made many canadians become weak and accustomed to the good times, so they voted for weak men like trudeau and carney. Wait till hard times comes to see how strong canadians will become, though i believe the TDS will make hard times continue for a long time.

Trudeau’s new Canadian utopia finally showing its true colours. This is showing how weak our system is.

USA is no longer aligned with democratic nations, it is with the autocrats. It's the dawn of a new world order. Glad Trudeau spoke to Donald in the way he did. To be clear. This is how a narcissist acts. He does not respect those who are closest to him - he does not care about allies and connection, he sees these folks (and nations) as weak - he is about control and domination. Narcs do this in their personal lives. And if you are not weak and don't bend to his will, they will unleash their actions to control - and if they have the power (and the prez is the most powerful person in the world) they will have all the power at this disposal and will not stop until they achieve their aim, destruction be damned. And that is why it was so dangerous to let Dump go without accountability. His deluded self thinks he's an unmitigated genius and he's the top of the food chain. For him it's blaring green lights all the way in his polluted mind. Dump 2.0 is unchecked now, so he is unleashing the narcissism disease upon the world.

Blistering? Trudeau? Hardly. Petulant. Peevish. Snippety. Waspish. A weak argument from a weak leader. Tell me…why won’t Canada pay tariffs equal to what they charge the US? Do they expect an unfair advantage because they’re ‘less than’?

Justin Trudeau truly has a backbone, standing up against the orange menace.\nMeanwhile Donald is the most disrespected person on earth, well in fact together with JD.\nThey will Make America Weak MAW.\nA rich country where people with medical issues are left to suffer and die. Is that greatness?

Trudeau you're a PM and when you disrespect the president publically you disrespect America, so you have no right to address the American people. You don't know how to handle politics and thats why your own people have verbalized that they want you gone! Your lack of respect for the President and the United States is what put you and your country in this situation in the first place. Tou're leaving out on a low. Humble yourself and sit down and talk to the President, and address him as such, and he'll cut you a deal, and you can gain back some dignity. Otherwise, stop complaining to the world community. You look weak!

trudeau is a weak leader thats why canada became POOR COUNTRY NOW.

Weak and pathetic…time to move on Trudeau

Trudeau’s weak leadership has hurt Canada, especially in energy and trade. Now, thanks to his failures, we’re vulnerable to Trump’s policies.

Its not History it's Herstory! Yah Trudeau! We should all be gay and weak!! Love it

the reason trump did this, was soley because of how horrible trudeau was, he ruined the country and trump took advantage of trudeaus weak leadership, make no haste, trudeau is not a savior

Trudeau is weak like 3.2 beer.

TOO MANY EXPLANATION MEANS WEAK ASF; THAT'S WHY DONALD KEEPS CALLING YOU GOVERNOR TRUDEAU.

Great strength in Trudeau and in Canada. If the Mexicans and the Eurpeans stand strong, Trump will not be able to handle it. They must not be divided. Trump is weak in the face of that

Trudeau is weak ?

Trudeau is a weak village idiot

Trudeau is a weak,woke clown who talks tough in front of the camera then drops his tiny nuts behind closed doors.

This is a weak leader! Trudeau your country is burning and crumbling from inside. Fix your country before you start throwing jabs at the United States! You punk liberal

The freedom convoy won the first case and the appeal the Justin Toxic weak Trudeau possibly losing French Quebec.

The Republicans stronghold New York against the Justin Toxic weak French Trudeau reduce trade from Quebec French Quebec mafia and 6 Italy mafia families in Quebec and schemes organized crime Montreal Port Quebec smuggling.

Deserves the resignation of Justin Toxic weak dressing up in war costumes of 1812 Trudeau.

Deserves the resignation of Justin Toxic weak Trudeau and resignation of Dominic BORN THE BRUNT DEFICIT LEBLANC and doubled the deficit financial crisis and printing of too much money catastrophic inflation, and tariffs schemes of devastation Melony failure, reverse, backfiring, kaput war of 2812 Joly.

Trudeau is dealing with a malignant narcissist. Even if Trump wants to, he can’t back down because he thinks it’ll make him look weak. America’s voters completely underestimated the danger of Trump’s personality disorder.

Well done Justin Trudeau, we're proud of you. You said it with firm voice and with determination. You are one son of the soil, unlike weak and wavering Pollivere and Danielle Smith.\nWe still want you to be our PM.

Trudeau is weak! US doesn’t care no more!

Trudeau is holding Canada hostage andbwont let us vote him out. This is the rrsukt of Trudeau andbthe weak bdp liberals.

Watching Trudeau attempt to speak tough from a position of weakness while simultaneously falling for a tit for tat tariff trap... Perfect?\n\nThe long term gains for the US here are massive.

Trudeau is a weak leader! For the past 10 years, he has mismanaged Canada’s finances, leaving the country in a fragile position. Instead of focusing on Canada, he spent his time touring the world to defend Ukraine. He chose Ukraine over his own citizens—this is who Trudeau is, a traitor to his country!

I hope you go to jail Trudeau. You are the worst kind of dictator, a weak coward. Step down. Go dress up and be racist. You screwed all Canadians and harmed everyone waaaay before these tariffs came into effect.

Trudeau is a weak trans and Canada is trash

Trudeau, you damaged Canada and brought it to where it is right now you have no right to speak on anything and tell about what other people have done. Take accountability for yourself and you have failed the Canadian people. I don’t know why we have a bunch of Canadians over here, sucking you off like they don’t remember what you’ve done. Is everyone on this page who is a Canadian suffering from Stockholm syndrome? Do you not remember what this guy has done to our country with immigration and taxing us with the carbon tax out of the Wazzu. Give your head a shake you sleepy Canadians. Canadians act too weak and that’s why we’re treated this way.

Hahahaha. Nobody cares what weak Trudeau says. TIme for everyone to be on an even playing field. ?

Please keep in mind, that all the issues we have in Canada are because of Trudeau. He's been in power for almost a decade. The widespread drug abuse and crime is because of him being weak on policy and handing out drugs like candy paid by tax payers. More people died from fentanyl in Canada than our soldiers in WWII. That is all on his watch. He is only making these changes because of Trump. What kind of a leader is Trudeau to only become Canada first when a person from outside the country threatens him? He is a horrible leader and a traitor to the Citizens and the Country we call Canada. Regardless of what his speech is, he cannot be trusted with his globalist agenda. He has stepped down (thank goodness!!) and Canada is looking forward to having Pierre Poilievre as our PM.

Up to now, I strongly despised Trudeau. He was weak, dumb, inconsistent, insignificant. \nNow, my opinion has changed. \nWhat he says is far from crap. \nT is a criminal, at the service of China, Russia to disrupt the North American economy every which way he can, whilst hiding in the shadow of a sheer head on military conflict that would leave both sides in the midst of nuclear fallout for centuries. \nThe enemy within. \nThe scour of unabashed destruction. \nThe new age of mind slavery in a T.

I always thought Trudeau is a weak leader but when facing the dictator ,Trump, he becomes a strong leader.

I applaud our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. He comes in strong, clear, no flourishes. No shade of weakness at all. Specially when he was addressing Trump directly. Polite like a true Canadian but pointed. Too bad, he won't be our PM after next week.

Wow Here’s accusing Putin of being a liar and a dictator well well well true day accusing him of exactly what you are everything that comes from Trudeau‘s mouth is lies and collusion and he’s a dictator to his own people only thing you can say he’s not is a bully because he’s a weak fairy where is Putin has a black belt in judo

Weak Trudeau. You do realize that Canada can't get any other goods with large tariffs from other countries. It all has to come from USA. Very smart Tump. Not sure why he is bringing Putin in it when he wants a peace deal.

I'll say what Prime Minister Trudeau couldn't say.\n\nThe US President and half of the nation's population are modern day Nazi's. They blame 'outsiders' for their problems. They fund genocide and advocate for ethnic cleansing. They blame their economic woes on other nations and attack erstwhile allies. They threaten to annex other nations.\n\nThese are all things that Adolf Hitler did in Germany. The similarities are remarkable. \n\nCanada is strong and most importantly, united. There's no question that we will get through this.\n\nThe United States is weak and incredibly divided. I fear for the chaos that is to come and for the other half of the population that are not Nazi's. This is what it was like to live in 1930s Germany.

Trudeau you are a weak lying snake bending truth to your victim narrative. Trump put you on notice regarding tariffs and here we are. Do you think he is not a man of his word? Well you have now experienced that this is in fact the case first hand. You have taken from America with very little in return and these are the consequences of your woke agenda for Canada. Look at you spouting venom, dischord and anarchy from your pulpit. Trump is interested in econmic revival for America and if you are not on board you will fall by the wayside. Only smart leaders realise throwing insults at Trump will only weaken your countries position. Surely you realise Trump is one of the most persecuted people on the planet, unjustly so, and your rhetoric will fall on deaf ears in the whitehouse. They've heard all the nonsense before. But, continue throwing the insults, chuck your toys out the pram, if it makes you feel like a grownup. I don't fancy your chances though.

As a Canadian, Never confuse Canadians politeness with weakness. Canadians are united from coast to coast behind everything Prime Minister Trudeau said and we will fight and survive this economic trade war by President Trump.

LOL all of Trudeau’s ideas are Trump’s ideas. Why is he taking action now to correct all those problems? Canadians need to wake up and get rid of this weak clown.

Trump is a joke but nobody is laughing. Trudeau puts Trump to shame. This is why Canada is respected, while Trump is regarded as a bully and a petulant child who is intent on hurting his friend to impress another bigger bully. The people of the US are most at risk and hopefully will eventually realise that Trump is the problem and not the answer. He is driving the US economy into the ground just to appease Putin. It makes you wonder what information Putin has about Trump that he is holding over Trump's head? This fiasco is making Trump look like a weak fool who cares nothing for what pain the US people will suffer. He is rich and therefore he and his billionaire friends will not feel the pain he is happy to inflict on others.

All the “I stand with Canada” clowns in the comments are either ignorant or just as weak as Trudeau. You’re standing with a leader who crippled his own economy, pushed insane carbon taxes, and sold out to China now crying because the U.S. won’t play along. News flash: Trudeau doesn’t care about you or Canada, he just needs a scapegoat for his failures. Standing with Canada? More like standing with a sinking ship while cheering on the captain who drilled the holes.

DEAR PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU, I AGREE THAT THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT HAS NOT BEEN FAIR TO ITS ALLIEDS AND TRADING PARTNERS AND THAT WE HAVE TO ACT IMMEDIATELY AGAINST THE UNITED STATES. \n\nI HAVE TO SAY, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY CANADA OR EUROPE EVER TRUST THE UNITED STATES WITHOUT HAVING SOME CONTINGENCY PLAN, KNOWING THE KIND OF TRAITOROUS MENTALITY AMERICAN GOVERNMENTS HAVE ALWAYS HAD, THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR POCKETS AND MAKING MONEY AT THE EXPENSE OF THE WEAK AND THE GULLIBLE COMMERCIAL AND POLITICAL PARTNER. \n\nONE THING I DISAGREE....., THAT IS CALLING THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT MURDEROUS, WHEN IN FACT IT WAS NATO AND ITS BRIGHT IDEA OF ANNEXATION OF UKRAINE TO NATO KNOWING THAT THEY WOULD BE BREAKING AGREEMENTS ESTABLISHED DURING THE COLD WAR OF NO PROLIFERATION OF NATO, IN FACT, NATO STARTED BREAKING THAT PACT WHEN IT ANNEXED FINLAND AND ESTONIA. RUSSIA KEPT QUIET, BUT NOW NATO TRIES TO ANNEX UKRAINE, THAT WAS THE LAST STRAW FOR RUSSIA, BESIDES THE BLATAN MISTREATMENT OF RUSSIAN-UKRAINIANS BY THE UKRAINIAN GOVERNMENT. \n\nNATO USES DEMOCRACY AS A PUNCH LINE, WHEN WE ALL KNOW THIS IS A DIRTY WAR FUELLED BY ECONOMIC INTERESTS AND GREED!\n\nMR. PRIME MINISTER, DO YOU KNOW WHO THE MURDERER IS?.....IT'S MR. ZELENSKY WHO HAS ANNIHILATED THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF ITS OWN PEOPLE, UKRAINIANS WHO WERE USED AS CANNON FODDER....AND NATO THE INSTIGATORS OF THIS WAR.\n\nTHE WORLD CANNOT BE THAT BLIND TO NOT SEE IT!!!

Trudeau is nothing and nobody to us. He's not our Prime Minister. Remember when he supposedly stepped down? Then he shut down the government and removed all checks and balances and accountability. You're in bad shape if you have to pull this doofus up to take a swipe at your own president. Why don't you report on what this weak puppet has done to his own country.

Trudeau, and Canada, can get it too. Canada exists at our want. Polite, limp wristed, weak manipulationg and dishonest politicians like Trudeau are about to get their come uppance. Friend? You are a liening pathetic operative for Globalist. LOOK AT YOUR OWN ECONOMY. LETS GO TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

American here,in full support of President Trump. Someone needs to be the bad guy and fix the globalist corruption. I personally never listen to or watch CNN. Canada is in a economic and cultural downfall for a reason. I have never supported Castros Bastard son, Trudeau. I love real Canadians and believe Canada would be much better as a US Territory/ State and hope they get rid of this weak little boy.

lol Fidel Trudeau on his way out after selling out Canada and giving his buddies billion dollar kickback deals (corruption and treason) scolding us? You chose a weak leader who has took you to the ground with him.
