Thank you, PM TRUDEAU, for standing up to this orange head bully, no retreat, no back down.

I'm not Canadian but I love Canada. Awesome people, awesome country. I'm 100% on your side. Trudeau rocks - he's smart, intelligent and honest. Please keep him as PM. Come to Europe, come to Australia & NZ. We love you guys, The tariffs are outrageous and disgusting and total kudos for standing up to the bully.

This so called stand up guy that’s done as PM in 3 days pledged another 5 billion to Ukraine and announced a 120 billion light rail train in the past 3 weeks and is putting the 4th carbon tax on us April 1 so this speech to me is obsurd - Danielle smith went right to trump and got oil reduced to 10% shoulda follow her lead Trudeau

With stand with you PM @trudeau

Well said, PM Trudeau. I'm a voting US citizen, yes, but donald's behavior this past week I cannot endorse or support. I think he has lost his mind. I'm ashamed, too, of his treatment this week of President Zelenskyy while at the WH. I applaud Zelenskyy for not being intimidated by foxx news as they sought an apology for standing up to the dual attack he suffered there. Stand your ground, I am not alone here.

PM TRUDEAU, Vive le Canada!! Stand tall, most Americans did not vote for Donald Trump the traitor, compulsive liar, his new play stooge - Elon Musk, who was not an elected official - he bought his “special employee position” by donating\n$6 billion to his presidential campaign! \n\nTrump is not trustworthy, he never was, he’s a compulsive liar, always was, he manipulates people - always did to get his way, he doesn’t know American history or European history- never did, he adored reading about Adolf Hitler and how he manipulated the German people to turn against Jews and minorities just like what is being done today by his REPUBTARD PARTY who are afraid to stand up against SATAN -this is who TRUMP sold his soul to to gain the White House including Putin,

Trudeau is speaking truth to power, and he is clear as glass that this mindless alienation of Canada is going to rebound on Americans. Teudeau is a REAL LEADER. Unlike one in Australia. Every Aussie PM cows down and boot licks for Yankeeland. Neither major party could ever really stand up to Trump the Dumb Dump if he hurt our economy. Limp lettuce government that is so America dominated down under, where I live.

PM Justin Trudeau took the right approach, kindly raised his tone, looked dead serious into the camera, and delivered some great points. Thank you, merci Capitaine. We stand for a united North America and back to peaceful times. A Canadian who stands for Ukraine.

Thanks Pm Justin and his cabinet for the hard they did since the crazy man get elected. All Canadians are with you in this and we will prevail. The people in the comment, Thanks for supporting and standing with us. ❤??

Well said PM Trudeau, stand proud Canadian the Commweath is right behind you Rember the Lane Canadia you bested those Mexicans (USA) once you can do it again.

Am I the only one thinking that we had a good PM, and media really manipulated popular opinion as to which he had to stand down? i mean look at what is going on down south, when emotions are allowed to rule? Trudeau wasn't doing anything wrong, he just go chopped for nothing... sad

I agree and stand by everything said by the PM Canada, but I do not agree with bashing any country or leader.

We are going to be sorely sad to see Trudea step down from his office as Prime Minister of Canada, as we need great leaders like him to fight for us. We pray that whoever replaces this seat of PM is going to stand firm and keep Canada and the United States united, and I am not refering to us becoming a 51st State.

Go PM Trudeau! You stand more than Americans would. We will never be 51st state??

As Puertorrican I stand with Canada. Pray for us. Trump will destroy this country. We are embarrassed and profoundly sorry for what Trump has done. I congratulate your PM. He is class.

I As an American citizen can only hope that we would have a president in office with the intelligence, compassion and dignity that PM Trudeau has. At this time I am truly ashamed of my country. Especially the ones that put this hateful, revenge seeking, criminal monster in our White House. I stand with you 100% Canada. I also hope that maybe within the next year, trump will be gone. I don't know how or where but just gone. As intelligent as prime minister Trudeau is I have to disagree with one comment he made. trump is NOT a smart man. He is nothing but a 34 count convicted felon, rapist and criminal wannabe dictator. I shudder at the thought of the end of his four year disaster. What will our country do when we have no allies whatsoever. He loves russia and putin, His puppet master. He does not understand that Russia has never been our friend, is not our friend. And never will be our friend. He just loves putin because He wants to be just like him. He is the United States very own Adolf Hitler. Also , I have removed our flag from my front yard that I so proudly displayed my entire life. It will be raised again but only after this nightmare called trump is gone! Please accept the apology from millions of Americans that stand with you. We are truly sorry and we are suffering with you. God help us. And God Bless Canada ❤

PM Trudeau, thank you for your honesty and respect for Americans and your own Canadians. Donald does not represent America’s values. I stand with Canada ??.

As a canadian, i will stand with Canada. However, Trudeau is not my PM. Our country would have been fiscally armored in this situation, were it not for his poor leadership. Telling us it will hurt! All while raising taxes and continuing to print money. Pierre for PM!

Respect to Canada ? stand up to Donald. PM Trudeau that is a 5☆ speech and resolution. Barbados ?? salutes you ♧

Donald Trump Elon Musk And JD Vance Are Putting Our Country In Big Danger They Don’t Care About Us It’s All About Money And It’s So Sad ? I Commend Canada For Standing Up For They Country Lord Knows We Need Someone Like You And PM Zelensky!?

As an American I pray that Canada/PM Trudeau knows that there is a massive % of us who understand that Canada has to stand on business & we hold no ill will for him protecting his country. PM Trudeau there is a massive % of Americans who despise trump & pray for his downfall (& those who follow him!) We as SANE AMERICANS know that this IDIOT who is president has begun/will continue to destroy our country(until he is stopped!) WE hold no grudges against countries who must fight back to protect themselves….WE envy you PM Trudeau & likewise countries who fight back because we are CLEARLY AWARE WE’VE BEEN CURSED WITH A MENTALLY ILL PRESIDENT WHO WON’T FIGHT FOR ALL PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY!

BRAVO PM Trudeau!!!!!! this is fantastic that you are standing up against the inhinged criminal FELON and TYRANT!!\nDo not ever cave in to this idiot BULLY or Canada will forever regret it, trump cant be reasoned with, talked to , persueded or anything else.\nConsider CUTTING the electric power to the 3 US States, and the OIL exported to the US as well- hit HARD and don't give in! The rest of the world is BEHIND you and support you!

Well done PM TREADAU . Europe has to back up Canada fully. we need to put this nasty sick russian TRUMPET in its place!! Who wud thought one day the UNITED STATES that we all love stands next to communist and dictatorships !!? love from Manchester

Go Canada ! Great job Mr PM for taking a bold stand

Well said PM Trudeau! Canadians will not stand for these treacherous actions by Trump. I will always stand up for my country, Canada ?? and will always stand on guard for thee! ?? ? ??

No Mr PM! Trumps and Musk, and their cult following, brought this nonsense to Canada. Us non trumpettes are standing with you ??

To any Americans watch PM Trudeau ... this is house a statesman and head of state speaks and behaves.\nNot the bozos leading your country. \n\nTo Canada, the Commonwealth and the world stands with you.

PM Trudeau, your stand against this Trump Tariff, is commendable, don’t give in to T “QUID PRO QUO” personal agenda!

President Trump and you need to work it all out. As far as blanket tariffs go, I do agree that your goods and services, including tariffs should be mutually broken down to create benefits for all. Part of my lineage is from Quebec, and here USA. We all need to help each other. Laser focus to arrest and put in prison all drug terrorists should be everyone's focus. The wars elsewhere are sidetracking the two of you from standing side by side with one another, as you mention you usually do. Two friends, two parallel united goals, yet I do agree, again, that you said an enemy would rather divide you two than to see you both Triumph over evil! So PM Trudeau, get on the phone with President Donald, and the two of you tackle it out, include a .PPT write-up with solutions that both of you know is good overall, both instant, immediate and longer term. May God's Holy Hands be upon you and surround you, with the love of my Savior, Christ Jesus! Thank you! I love you all.

I stand with Canada & with Mexico. Trump needs to be impeached as do all of the rest of his circus. Musk needs to be deported. Thank you PM Trudeau for having the strength & courage to not back down from this shit show we have in our administration.

Portuguese here, I stand with you Canada! Eloquent, civilised words from your PM.\nEurope, UK, Canada and every civilised country, we must unite, that's how we become stronger. Donald's isolationism is a step back in every way. Just take a look at North vs South Korea.

Now while I can't stand Joly and that dude. I must admit that the message right on point. Well played Trudope. \n\nNow lets elect a real pm!

So Trudeau calls Putin a liar and a murderous dictator but we all remember a few years ago, the same PM declaring is admiration for China's dictatorship. On a trip in Europe he even downgraded is own people while trying to suck up to the Germans. A few years ago Trudeau said that Canadians didn't really have an identity and announced that he wished to make Canada the first post national country in history. I'm sorry guys, I do not like the tariffs but I just cannot stand this guy!

To all Canadians, as an American, it was so refreshing to see PM Trudeau stand up to the big bully who has some type of bromance with Putin. We feel he has something he’s holding over ?’s head. We also feel our election was rigged by muskrat. We live in a Blue state, Illinois, and we will suffer some things the ? felon we withhold from us. I don’t care. We’d rather be in a blue state no matter what. Please pray for us and all Americans who despise this man. Thank you.

Now Trudeau is standing strong and yes his country now shows strength. Can’t be our 51st no matter being called a governor! He speaks like a good PM\nWe love and support Canada ??

This is SO WRONG PM Justin Trudeau has my respect. I stand with you Canada.

Dear PM Trudeau. We Americans understand how and why you are doing what you are doing due to the stupid decisions of our dictator musk/trump. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico and the EU. God bless all of us as we deal with the aftermath of trump/musks BS decisions.

As a Brit, I wish our own PM would stand up to Trump and the United States like the Canadians have just done

I stand with Canada's Prime Minister and the other parties that have allied with the PM's office. I disagree with Trump.

Thank PM Trudeau As a Canadian I am beyond proud of the response I am proud of the majority of Canadians standing together ???

We need the help from our friends to speak the Truth, clear and loud. Thank you PM Trudeau. The only winner here is Putin. He gets to pit our Allies against us while destroying Russa's biggest adversary (or we were). This is insane, idiotic and hopefully my fellow Americans will wake up and turn this around before it takes hold. Congress needs to do their job and stop the Executive Orders we are not an authoritarian nation (yet). Stand with Mexico, Canada, Ukrain and the rest of the Free Democratic world.

PM Trudeau, not everyone wanted Trump and not everyone stands behind everything that is going on. Some of us see what is actually going on and our hearts break because of all of this.

I have to agree. We should be very proud of Trudeau. So eloquently and articulately delivered with facts, no hesitation or backing down. Thank you, PM Trudeau we stand behind you as do most of the world. I have heard from so many friends/relatives in different parts of the world saying we should be proud. We stand strong. We are Canadian eh. ??

As an American…I am embarrassed, saddened, angry by our “administration!!” I stand by you PM Trudeau!! frump is an embarrassment to the world!!

This dumb PM is on his way out because Canadians could not stand this idiot. He is doing more Damage in his last few weeks in office.

PM Trudeau you are a leader, Canadian's please stand strong with your PM and don't let Putin/Trump tear your country apart. Our president is compromised, in any other time a president would have been brought up on treason/ traitor. It is beyond me why the Republicans are not standing up to him. My grandfather fought in WWll against Hilter in Africa, where are our heros now?

As much as people have been knocking Trudeau for years, This addressing is clear cut and I couldn't see any other PM nominee addressing this situation this way. As a Canadian citizen I stand behind my prime minister with this interview.

A rather liberal PM stands up to the US!

Well said PM .\n\nWe stand strong.\n\nGod bless Canada and US.

Wow! So many awesome comments of support, from around the world! This Canadian thanks you. \nMany of us are proud of our outgoing PM. He made some financial mistakes, maybe a bit TOO liberal, but there are also many detractors who I fear are caught up with the same hyperbole that captivated (and fooled) too many Americans; I hope this is a good lesson for them. \nWe will continue to stand on guard, for ourselves, and for what the world wants us to be❤
