It's Trudeau's fault! But it's strange that Canadians voted Liberal again! Canadians are going to get the same outcome with Carbon Tax Carney leading the country. Stop voting Liberals, they always leave the country in shambles! Stephen Harper was a great leader! We need that again, forget about the Liberals!

Thank you president Trudeau for calling Poetin a lying murderer what he is. And for striking back to Trump and not appeasing him like the coward Republicans do. Thank you for joining the ‘meeting of the willing’ in the UK. Love from your friends in the Netherlands. You are truly a great leader. ❤❤❤❤❤ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Our great Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau. Does a great job despite our own idiot Maple Maga Convoy Twits up here who haven't stopped crying over Covid Vax's Traitors! Justin is a strong leader and a great communicator.

Justin Trudeau is a great prime minister, brilliant leader god bless Canada

This is a real leader. This is a great speech. Trudeau is a lot nicer than I am. Donald you are a bully racist criminal who idolizes dictators. When Zelensky was bullied about his clothes and kicked out of the white house, this is the first day I am embarrassed to be American.

What a great speech! Absolutely excellent, perfect! Trudeau is proving to be a really great leader. Lucky Canada. Shame that he won't be standing for re-election in the upcoming elections.

Canadian border state NDak here. Prime Minister Trudeau your speech was outstanding!? You are truly a great leader. God bless you all.

Trudeau is a snake. Remember that. He’s scapegoating Trump. If Trudeau was a great leader Canada wouldn’t be in the situation it’s in where he’s whining like a little b*tch. He should have done more years ago. He’s Canadas Biden and now like the lunatic left he’s blaming Trump.

No more buying US. No visits/ holiday's. No stocks. Cant help but feel this is what trump and musk want, i.e. to have stockmarket get weaker so they can buy more. \nLook over there...(aligning with Putin dictator, Bullying zelensky, illegal firing staff, tariffs, accusing zelensky of propaganda as US fox news is known for it) whilst they shake markets up, risking world war 3 for multiple reasons. With the Supreme court in his pocket, the US is following Putins lead and becoming a dictatorship. The law is far to pliable there at this point. \nAll those voted Trump in and think he is making America great, you are DILLUSIONAL!\nHe will take you and your families down.. the young get sent to war, the old asshole sociopathic men sit by the fire protected. It took a very long time for Germany to escape the reputation after Hitler. You want the rest of the world to disdain and never trust your country and people?! Germany recovered, but it was painful healing. \nHow bout Trump sleeps out on the streets, deals with fentanyl addicted unsupported US citizens and veterans or get sent to war? Or what about his children or grandchildren?! Would he care if they were called to stand for the country if WW3 broke out, because of him? Trump truly is making a statement... he gives 2Fs about the people, totally self serving. For the capitalist bullies who love money at any cost..even blood money... non of your investments will make a difference if you have no heating, water, food, jobs, lost family members through war and crap health system... not an ounce of love, respect, compassion, respect, leadership in the US government. The World can be better. Choose better... for all that is sacred... stop the madness!!\n\nWell done Canada & Trudeau... love and support you beautiful people. ❤\nLove and Strength to the people of Ukraine around the globe. I pray for this nightmare to end in your favour. For your loved ones to be safe and protected and that you can be reunited once more. Love and praise for Zelensky...you are a phenomenal leader. May you receive the support needed to end the war.❤\nHang tight US citizens who wish a very different US .❤

I’ve read a lot of comments from people saying “Trudeau ruined Canada” in response to people expressing their support for Trudeau in this time.\n\nThat’s not really a great point.\n\nIf Trudeau hasn’t been good for Canada, but gives a coherent, inspiring, and professional speech in this moment that unites Canadians and others alike, then that should speak so much to how awful this situation is. Huge respect to Trudeau and Canada for not backing down. I hope one day we’ll be allies with the right side of the world again.\n\nWe wanna talk about a leader ruining a country? That’s what Donald is doing right now. Except he won’t unite us in the future with a speech like this.\n\nThis American stands with Canada!

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau…I wish we had a leader like you, articulate, intelligent and a great sense of decorum…instead we have the OHB

Im sorry Mr Trudeau, im sorry Canadian people. This American voted against this madness, and I do not support this ally of the evil of the world that is currently occupying the white House. This executive branch of the US government, along with the propaganda machine are fueling the supporters of this nonsense and they may not be able to determine the trauma that decisions like these tariffs, like putting down a great leader of a sovereign nation that was attacked by an aggressive country like Russia. This is going to do nothing but hurt people on every side.

We love you Trudeau, you are a great leader ❤❤❤

Trudeau is a great Leader. I pray that Ttump will be charged with Treason for being a Traitor to our country, the U.S. I ? pray that God will bring us a Leader whom we can trust, and who loves our country and the Constitution.

It's so funny seeing some Americans say that Trudeau is a great leader meanwhile The majority of Canadians are extremely disappointed with him and are glad he's resigning.

One minute yall call Trudeau a buffon and next yall call him a great leader! All yall people on here are fake!! Wishy washy supporters!

As an American I think I’m right to say most of us are on Canadas side. Glad to finally see a great leader like Trudeau call Trump “dumb “!

If only the United States of America had a great leader like \nPresident Trudeau

THIS IS A LEADER! This is how a leader should speak. Without an ounce of arrogance but full of factful compassion. Truth be told, Mr Trudeau is one of my favourite leaders of a country. He may have issues, but which leader doesn't right. Look at what Trump is doing now. Great speech, Sir. I feel so proud of ??.

I'm a Canadian who has always voted for Prime Minister Trudeau and I will continue to vote liberal. I heard a person on the Jake Tapper, C NN, this afternoon say all the companies are coming to the USA not Canada, he didn't mention that they come because they don't have to pay a lot of taxes. Us Canadians take great offense that the spawn of the devil wants to annex our country and he refers to our Prime Minister as governor. The orange dumb criminal and his maggots would probably give part of our country to snakehead war tyrant putin who has interest in the Artic and that would involve Greenland. We Canadians don't want to make life difficult for the American people but the dumb evil cheeto likes tariffs. President Zelenski didn't start the war and he won't be the one to start WW3. putin is a war criminal who controls the criminal organization in the White House and it's leader. President Zelenski be careful the spawn of the devil ? and war tyrant can't be trusted. ?????

How refreshing to listen to an intelligent leader! i only take issue with him calling Trump a smart guy. Trump will never do anything but ridicule and insult Trudeau and Canada no matter what concessions Canada makes. The great thing is that Trump never had any kind of plan except to tariff the hell out of our former allies. Canada is very systematic about their tariffs against US. They are using a scalpel rather than a sledgehammer. Very smart against very stupid, childish, and undisciplined.

I never voted for that dangerous man but feel ashamed as an American for this betrayal against our nicest and closest allies. The Canadians must be very proud of their great, smart and brave leader, Mr Trudeau

I don't think too highly of Trudeau since the freezing of protestors bank accounts, but this is a great example of how leaders are supposed to behave and communicate. Hats off.

Trudeau sounds like a great leader. I will USA had a leader.

The world need more great leaders like Trudeau

What a great leader Trudeau is - don’t we wish we had a man of his integrity leading us in the USA

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

Finally Trudeau shows that He is a great leader. Respect

I listened PM Trudeau speech more than 3×. What a great leader Canada has ?? ❤( probably the politest country on our planet)

This is a very sad day. Justin Trudeau you are and always be a class act and a very strong and great leader. Thanks you for your unwavering support for all of Canada.

Talking about a REAL (world) Leader! My personal message to Mr. Trudeau... 'Why you leave at this critical stage?' We need leaders like you to stand up to this type of Clowns who jerk themselves off for power and dollar-bills. And to the biggest Clown of this (still) free world, I would like to say: Mister Clown... as you say, America First.. Do yourself a favour and built a huge wall around your last and dying power soil.. and make sure this time you pay for it yourself, so you have your isolated soil called USA all for yourself and your regretting voters with your trade traffic. Make America great AND ISOLATED again... and make the US dollar a welcomed item at the toilet around the world!

What are great speech! i wish we have leader like Trudeau, not wacky,crazy and dumb as Trump.

I am American and as an independent i truly apologize ,and im ashamed in out elected leader and the incapable cabinet . i did not vote for him and i hope we can get control of our house again from this nuthouse i wish u well and hope that we can all get through this together instead of allowing him to continue to decide. And also i want to give Justin Trudeau the credit of a great speech. Its a breath of fresh air. I stand with everyone whos on the side of right and just peaceful interactions.

So sick of everyone who mindlessly support Trump! The GOP are puppets & cowards, only interested in self preservation! Nice to hear a competent leader speak...great job Trudeau, do NOT back down to Trump!

I live in Maine on the border with Canada and im absolutely ashamed at what trump is doing. Canada is an incredible country and a great ally to the US, and this entire thing that trump is doing is reprehensible. It would be an improvement to have a leader like Trudeau who can actually get a point across.

PM Trudeau is a real Leader! Stay strong Canada! All the best for you and your great and awesome Nation!

Another awsome speech from Prime Minister Trudeau. A great leader for the past 8 years did the best to run a Country through Covid 19 and many other challenges. I am Proud of being a Canadian. ??

Canada you should keep Trudeau as Prime Minister.. He's a great leader.???

Prime Minister Trudeau, thank you for showing the world how a true gentleman and leader talks to the leaders of another country in spite of the irrational, immoral and turncoat actions from a former Ally; our (?) new MAGA President Donald Trump. It's so surreal that this narcissistic, psychopathic person actually won the Presidential election (again). All I can say is I am sorry, embarrassed, and ashamed of my broken country's politicians in Washington, D.C. at present. Many more Americans support the democratic policies than the anti-democratic that Trump's regime is spouting all around the world. Just know this isn't what most Americans believe and we don't support his thoughts and actions. We are trapped in this nightmare that makes no sense. We hope this is just a temporary change. These new policies benefit no one but the oligarchs of America (and world). I guess we are just going to have to take our punishment for the few years for not being able to prove that these people in Washington care NOTHING for anyone, including their own constituent, and are hell bent on taking down and destroying our American, Democratic way of life and we, the people, are helpless to stopping it dissolve and crumble. Thank you Canada for always being such great neighbors. Good luck, peace out!

As a leader, you are never remembered for what you compromised on. You are only remembered for what you stood for. When it comes to passion, purpose, and causes, there are ideas we are willing to live by, but as a leader, there are causes and beliefs we are willing to die for. \n You are a great leader Trudeau, not a liar but a man of integrity.\nDr Charles Holloway PhD

Today, I heard a true North American leader who very aptly described the situation leading up to these silly tariffs, the actions his country took to avoid the tariffs. P.M. Trudeau openly spoke of the changes that the wannabe Orange Julius threatened and why the U.S. wasn't being realistic. \n\nI know some people criticized the Prime Minister recently, but you have a great politician who is actually defending his country!!! Unite behind him and kick MAGA's arse!

This is a leader. So thankful this man is leading our country on this day. He will be greatly missed. Much respect Prime Minister Trudeau. ❤??❤️

Mr Trudeau you are a great leader and unfortunately our country is totally F@$%@D because of one me who is a total Idiot and is destroying the country and I agree with you ?% that Putin is a lying corrupt thug Dictator who needs to be Stopped at all cost and I also believe he has to have sumthing hanging over Trump's head i honestly can't believe he is thst stupid anyways i hope you have woken up the American people and our senate and congress they need to impeach Trump ASAP and have his side kick JD Vance resign before they cuase even more damage you are a true gentleman who Mr Trump should learn a thing or 2 from God bless our Country ?

Trudeau has had many accusations thrown at him for many yrs and none of them positive. That said, I for one salute the first world leader to stand his ground, speak the truth and not pander to Trumps bullying strategy. I have not witnessed any other world leader speak in this manner. I’ve witnessed many leaders pandering to an ego that is unbelievably narcissistic and quite simply inexplainable to me. \n\nMr Trump, this is not a reality tv show this is reality! The slogan he created ‘Make America Great Again’ is quickly becoming ‘Making America Alone’.

Trudeau is a great leader.

Trudeau is a great man, leader

I could not be more assured,as a Canadian, by the great unscripted,direct speech our leader,Prime Minister Trudeau, has delivered to Canadians and Americans. Everyday people will hurt through this and remember, it will not affect the oligarchy Trump has created, because they can withstand downturns in economies through wealth. His goal is to crush the Canadian economy in the guise of creating better paying jobs for American. Complete unhinged fallacy.

Wow! I have great respect for all the countries coming together as a whole. It's a shame we have such a lousy worthless President. By the way did you MAGA nut jobs hear what a real leader sounds like, it's Trudeau not your lunatic President you voted for. Trump would rather destroy his own country instead of bring it together. That's dictatorship not a great leader. We need to get rid of him before this gets worse or it's too late and he refuses to leave.

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.

Why is it that when Trudeau stepped down he became a great leader? God damn it, Justin. We needed THIS version of you YEARS AGO. Regardless, I am so glad that JT has our back. Fuck Trump.
