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!

The United States has no president Trump is no longer the president of the United States he is going to be charged for high treason the United States citizens do not recognize Trump as president they do not recognize JD Vance the world must see and know this the American people do not do not recognize Trump as our leader he is a traitor to America and works for Russia do not trade with Trump any country that trades with Trump will be ripped off robbed or stolen from and their money will go straight to Russia

As an American, I am disgusted by our leaders and government. I wish I could move to Canada where there people are treated better. I did not vote for this. It sucks that gas is going to go up and I commute to work. And groceries going up too it's a shame. America supposed to be the better country but it's not. I stand with Canada and Ukraine❤❤

A very impressive leader, US can only dream about this kind of president. US elected an idiot into the WH who is kissing Putin's ass. Americans will regret this when they pay with food stamps for their groceries (if Elon does not take that away too) or stand in line in the soup kitchen and can not pay their mortgage or rent and move into their junk Winebego

He was and has always been a weak leader. They took advantage of Americans and we are clapping back by our elected leader. Time to pay your fair share. #51

Nice to see a leader standing up to Trump. Trudeau is showing leadership and trying to explain to American how tariffs work. It would be good if Trump understood the pain he will cause Americans. We need an adult in the White House.

Lots of nice words of support from Americans, but “thoughts and prayers” are not enough — now is the time to take action! If you truly support Canada and Ukraine, let your congressperson and senators know how you feel. Voice your anger at town halls, write your leaders, protest in the streets, and for god’s sake, stop buying Teslas!

Us Americans are proud that Canada is fighting this. We are a country with leaders that are crazy idiots, criminals, jerks and oligarchs playing with autocracy. America is falling over a cliff because of this group! 3:33

What’s up with these other world leaders trying to speak directly to American people, we voted for him, talk to your own people

We now have a criminal administration in the US if that were not enough the leader is also crazy. Americans are only just starting to feel the pain his policies will bring to us and now even more to Canadians whose economy is in a more fragile state than ours. The silver lining is American people will stand with the people of other countries including Canadians to take back their power from a would be dictator who cares not about people but only the bottom line. Appologies to all Canadians from the people of the USA !

Donald Duck Trump MESS IT ALL UP! THIS OLD ORANGE MAN was voted by the blinded Americans. He's a puppet of a dictator. A cowardly leader who doesn't deserve the position in the oval office. He's full of greed and selfishness. Your GREAT KARMA WILL COME SOON!☝️☝️☝️\nBlame all of these to TRUMP, JD VANCE, ELON MUSK and their American supporters. You will reap what you sow. It may not be now, but in the future.☝️ You'll regret what you did.\n\n???I WILL STAND FOR MY COUNTRY, CANADA! WE ARE THE TRUE NORTH, STRONG AND FREE NATION. THE ENTIRE CANADIAN PEOPLE, AND ALL OTHER NATIONS AGAINST THE NARCISSIST IN THE OVAL OFFICE.

Dear all americans, dont let your corrupt leader mess around anymore, they did this for wealthy class's sake. You ordinary person will bear all negative consequences as inflation rises

This is what a real leader sounds like. If only we Americans had that right now. As an American my heart goes out to Canada right now.

Now that’s what a leader should sound like, wish we Americans had a leader.

Never seen a leader or President have a speech for another country to its citizens , You can tell the rats are scared and backed into a corner . Fear mongering American citizens will not help your country . Do your share and do your job and none of this will happen to any American or Canadian citizens . Right now the only ally you have is CNN . The most fear mongering net work on the planet , Which is not worth bragging about . They will be bankrupt soon with all the lawsuits they are losing .

American here that you Prime Minister Trudeau for being a true leader of our amazing neighbors to the north. Putin owns trdumps and he is a traitor to Americans and her allies I stand with Ukraine ?? Mexico ?? Canada ?? United Kingdom and all of our allies. I DO NO STAND WITH RUSSIA

As an American I look forward to this trade war with Canada. I've never respected Trudeau as a leader and I don't respect him now after a speech. So please, teach me a lesson and I hope Trump retaliates further to teach you yours. This is your time to show us how wise or how foolish you are and I'm here for that. It won't take long to see either way, good luck, friend.

As an American..This is how a leader speaks..and not a bunch of word salad BS like Trump and his goons address the world. Just embarrassing as hell.

As an American I am disgusted and ashamed. This is not the end of the madness coming out of Trump's small, unpatriotic, destructive mind. Prime Minister Trudeau and President Zelensky did not roll over and let Trump bully them. Trump should look at these men as leaders, and stop playing with Putin's peter. Trump and Vance should resign immediately.

The American people have no problem with Canada. Hopefully you can vote your liberal leaders out before we no longer want to work with your government.

I hope Canada's retaliatory tariffs target products from Trump states. Also, listening to Trudeau reminds me how much I miss having an intelligent, articulate POTUS. Four years of The Orange Retard, then four years of Geriatric Genocide Joe, and now four more years of The Orange Retard. Why is it too much to ask that We Americans have an articulate, educated leader who's undiminished by senescence (bonus points for speaking French!)

American here. Sad and dismayed at all this, hoping my Canadian friends believe that not all of us are on board. Trudeau shines here as a true leader- you guys are fortunate

True Americans stand with our President Donald J Trump, the majority of real patriots voted for him. Canadians, Mexicans, Ukraine, it's over, they will not continue taking advantage of American citizens, fix your problems, USA we have our own problems and our leader only cares about us, as it should be.

I am from Europe and I hope our leaders will have the same courage and stand to the bullies. American people, I know at least half of you dont agree with what is happening and I do hope you will do your part as we dont want to be enemies but friends.

A true leader serves his people and a dictator must be served! Americans we have a president who aligns himself with Putin!

People in America, the free Americans, are weeping as we hear the brave words of other leaders and they yern for that leadership to save them from tyranny at home.

This American would love to have a leader as smart and principled as this again. I stand with Canada.\nOne thing that I would disagree with, though. Donnie is not smart. The Orange Skidmark has some serious cerebral issues.

We know most Americans are still our friends, but this leader of your country must be stopped. He is tremendously bad not just for your country and not just ours, but for our entire planet. I stand with Mr. Trudeau, we will persevere ??

as an american i am disgusted of our nation and its leaders. we are now the bad guys.

American here that you Prime Minister Trudeau for being a true leader of our amazing neighbors to the north. Putin owns trdumps and he is a traitor to Americans and her allies I stand with Ukraine ?? Mexico ?? Canada ?? United Kingdom and all of our allies. I DO NO STAND WITH RUSSIA

As a Frenchwoman with friendly ties to the United States and Canada, I am horrified by what the Americans are doing to the Ukrainians. And I think this trade war is a splendid gift for the Chinese. What's happening to the leader of the free world ?

Trump is shameful his dosen't even care about the American people here. It seems like his doing this for Putin l don't know if it true. His acts like Immature bully, but that doesn't make him a strong leader weak instead.

American supporters of Donald Trump. Stop, look, and listen to what you’re hearing here today. Are all the world leaders and people across the world wrong? What makes any of you think that Trump is right? Are you really willing to continue to stand with that man as he dismantles all relationships with allies and all fellow human beings who stand for democracy? Look at what he’s already been allowing Musk to do so far at this point in this country. The time has come to truly ask yourselves what you stand for and make the right choice

I love Canada and I love all of the Canadian people as an American I feel really bad for you guys because you’re going through what we went through in the Biden administration. It’s gonna get worse until it gets better but it’s up to all of you Canadians to vote the right way next time you need a real man who has power And can deal with your country and puts it first and the citizens first this guy showed up in a Barbie premiere movie wearing the pink outfit that says enough. Trump knows that he needs to go it almost seems like he’s gonna get rid of all the weak leaders so we can have a power for world and bring world Peace. Pray for you guys it will get better but you need to vote him out?

I'm an American, embarrassed of the actions and behavior of my fellow Americans and their leaders of the MAGA party/cult. I sincerely apologize for these idiots I seem to be surrounded by.

The Drug Fentanyl is coming into the USA because Americans want it to come in .\n. America would be better employed finding the reason for people to need this narcotic .Maybe it's because your . society is so unfair, maybe it's because you have so many people without money, possessions, education and opportunities . Maybe it's because you don't look after your sick and elderly and UNDERPRIVILEGED.. Trump should not blame other country's HE SHOULD ACT LIKE A REAL LEADER . And show leadership AND focused on improving the well-being of all citizens.

Thank you for not consorting with communist pigs like chump Canada a democratic country should never allied with any communist or dictator or terrorist putin is all of those hes not an elected leader hes a dictator he took control of russia kills anyone who speaks against him you praising him alone with nazis is sick and un American its so scary that america is happy to work with the free world’s greatest enemy….

Canada ?? is a friend to American people ! Donald Trump is being a fool, Elon musk seems to be secret president ? I am embarrassed by our current leaders !

Trudeau is a great leader. I’m so sorry for what our loser Trump is doing. I do want Canada to know that Americans are feeling all the bad things that Trump is doing. We cannot let this continue.

Now there is a leader a real leader not the joke Americans have got right now

PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU - WHAT A REAL LEADER LOOKS LIKE. The big difference between Canada and the US is that the Canadian gov will be there to support it's people during this time and our White House will do NOTHING to help Americans -as a matter of fact they will treat us worse. TRUMP DID THIS - TRUMP HAS TO GO - before we lose everything we have worked for for over 200 years!!!

This clown is definitely in the running for one of the weakest most pathetic leaders ever. And for all you “Americans” siding with Canada and theft from the American tax payers, you should move to Canada since your weak minds fit right into Canadas weak minds. \nFor the clowns threatening to do more business and side with Europe, go ahead. You probably should ask Ukraine about how helpful Europe really is!!

We are seeing another country's leader supporting Americans more than our own government.

Trudeau resigned as prime minister because he was deeply unpopular in Canada. He proceeded to suspend parliament while President Trump threatened these Tariffs and then immediately left to Europe to posture with European leaders. He did absolutely nothing to strengthen the US/Canadian relationship while his party set about appointing (not electing) a new leader. Trudeau is an actor and a hypocrit. Do not believe anything he says. Now I don't agree with President Trump's tariffs on American allies like Canada. I don't understand the metrics he's using to justify them. Maybe there is a real reason, but this fool that you're listening to has not represented Canada faithfully and I reject everything he says.

Now that's a leader! Canada hold strong. Don't bend to that orange moron. I know Canada won't be threatened. Trump thinks if you're decent and polite, you're weak. He will soon find out that he is very mistaken. Pathetic little bullies are historically weak. Your government does not want this but will not be pushed around. Trump is doing this to his own people. Hold tight and let the intelligent Americans rise up. Ireland stands with Canada.

Dear Mr. President Trump, would you please reconsider welcoming these wonderful fellow North Americans living in these TEN Canadian Provinces, not as the 51st State, but as TEN States, when being invited into the United States of America? These Canadian Provinces being Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.\n\nSuggested is to make Canada’s existing 10 Provinces into 10 individual United States States. Canada will benefit with a strong 10 State influence within 60 United States governance affairs. Benefits are 10 more States on a balanced display welcomed as 10 white stars within the beautiful United States of America field of Blue of our Flag. Other countries will see North America’s Great Power when 60 glorious States, when combined, and working well together, communicating best when communicating with each other only in English, when English is the United States official National Language. No more Government waste of having multi language signage. Another geologically considered North American country, Greenland, with 4 more territories may wish to add four more States, as well as the many existing United States Territories across the globe may desire Statehood. The Sun will never set on the United States. As for 10 Canadian States, think of the  benefit of 20 mostly conservative thinking U.S. Senators which equals a larger majority of conservative votes in the larger U.S. Senate when composed of 120 Senatorial political leaders. 120 U.S. Senators keep the Filibuster procedure balanced. 10 Canadian Provinces converted into 10 United States States equals many more conservative House of Representatives votes enhancing the conservative majority of political leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives. So many good reasons why Canada’s 10 Provinces, with a mostly conservative thinking population of thinkers, should be transformed into 10 new United States States, not just one United States. Yes....10 more States that is the helpful way forward for the United States to have a very dominant conservative thinking population of United States Congress Political Leaders, resulting in a long term more stable United States Congress representing 60 United States, thinking more conservative, thinking more logical, thinking more common sense thoughts, thinking more capitalist job creation thoughts, thinking more tax cut thoughts, are just some of the benefits of having 60 United States of America States on  display, and functioning efficiently going forward for all the World’s Countries to marvel at.

Our canadian leaders need to keep saying it's not rhe americans we have something against it's their leadership.

What a wonderful leader. I am so ashamed of Trump and half of the American people

Wait… I thought tariffs would hurt American consumers… that’s what all the liberal media outlets said. You mean, it affects the leader of another country too?? Why would JT be mad about American consumers paying more for Canadian products??? Someone must be lying?? could it be the liberals?

I’m American and never thought our despicable president would be so low as to alienate our dear friends to the north! Shame on maga and Trump supporters that gave him this power god bless Canada and god please don’t forsake our country we are not our leader!
