As a sane American, I stand with Canada! Thank you for standing strong.

Trump supports a dictator who lets children and babies die and wants to wipe out an entire country. He is opposing all of his allies for Putin. Putin will get money again. He is sacrificing parts of Ukraine and Putin has no need to fear punishment. Many countries were allies of the USA. We fully supported the USA after September 11th. People in the EU also died for you! I liked the USA very much, I spent my vacation there but I will not do that anymore, I will no longer buy American products. A dictator is being supported here and all our help to Ukraine for the past 3. years will be wasted! Trump will also restructure the USA so that he is the only king and no one controls him anymore. He want rich russians oligarch in the USA...That is how I think and feel... he s like Biff in back to the future when he owns all...From Germany! Thank You Canada❤.. \n\nI send love and recognition to every US American who did not vote for this president and who is for democracy and human rights. ❤️

Thank you Canada ??

WOW!!! What a calm, measured response toward an incredibly ridiculous situation. This is what leadership looks like!!! Thank you Canada for standing up to this bully! We'll weather this shit storm together. Thank you for being our kind, thoughtful, compassionate, patient, AND polite neighbors + friends. We LOVE you!!!

As an American, thank you Canada. I am so sorry. You are right we will be hurt the most.

Thank you to all you idiots that didn't believe in project 2025!!! I'm with Canada ?? , Mexico ?? and Ukraine ??

Thank you to all the support from the people outside of Canada. Please help us through this by supporting our online businesses.

Thank you Canada's for always standing up for decency, rule of law and democracy! The small nation looking up to Canada's for world leaders! May the Lord provided guidance for Canada's to always stepping for right side of history!??

I think what you are doing is right. I wish our leaders had the same compassion for humanity. Thank you for all you do Canada

I would like to say this, Canada we do understand. I thank GOD I seen the evil in Trump and his buddies. It's call spiritual discernment. You people that believe in Christ, you better put your trust in the good LORD.

I LOVE IT.. I'm mexican n I'm good with bean tacos n lentils ?. Will survive. THANK YOU CANADA FOR HELPING US FIGHT BACK WITH THE ? ? .

Thank you Canada ?? \nSorry for the inconvenience but we have a Dictator and he is not playing fair to you and to other countries. Blessings to your country and the people that live there. ???☮️❤️✨✝️????????????\nI LOVE MY COUNTRY BUT I FEAR MY GOVERNMENT.

from Germany: \nSince the war in Ukraine, Germany has been buying 13 times more gas from the USA (from 1% currently to 13%). It's time to show solidarity with Canada and get our gas from there. To all Canadians: be grateful for such a sincere and intelligent prime minister. Thank you, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, for your clear words!

This man is a dictator and he doesn’t represent Canadians. Canada has big problems and its legal drugs are killing people and being sold everywhere. Thank you, Trump for these tariffs.???

This is the type of speech hard to listen to, the type of speech you need to give to a country about to go war, make no mystake, thats what this is, and this is also the type of speech that shows who is and who is not fit for leadership, Trudeau you made mistakes when you were younger, but who didnt, but you sure matured to be a leader who can make people follow you from youre words alone, im glad we have a president in south america with such caracther on the side of reason and peace, with all the doomlike scenarios i conjure from seeying Trump pulling the USA to side with Russia and only imagine russia joining nazi germany just to get also screwed as soon as russia gets the chance and trump is clueless about it, youre speech eased my mind a bit, thank you and thank you to all the people of Canada

dt is NOT SMART! He's trying to RULE the US as a despot. We are with you, Canada!! Thank you for standing strong against the bully in the white house! \n❤CANADA❤

Thank you Canada! As an American I stand with you!

Patriotic American here. My government no longer represents me, my interests or my ideals. Thank you PM Trudeau for speaking up. Thank you Canada for being strong and decent people.

I am an American. I am also reasonable and polite. I didnot vote for #47 or support any of his policies, but will suffer the consequences of his pyscopathy along with so many others. Thank you for showing the world what integrity looks like. I stand with Canada.

Wisconsin man here. Thank you Canada!

I’m Canadian and loved PM Trudeau’s response to the tariffs. Thank you to all the countries throughout the world who have expressed their support for Canada. Vive le Canada ???

Thank you to everyone from all over the world in support of Canada standing up to Trump. As a Canadian born in N. Ireland who loves the US, and have many friends there, i am emotional reading all these comments especially the us folks, it gives me hope. Im to old and broke down to be in on the front lines, but i will limp my way to fight for this country. We are not for sale.\nELBOWS UP\nPeace from Toronto

Thank you! This is how a leader should speak and act!!! I am on your side Canada. I am so disgusted with our so called “leader” and government. I, along with many others, did not vote for this despicable idiot called Donald Trump.

as a Canada born...please piss off Trumpy to the extreme so he WILL invade Canada. Thank You Gov Turdeau .??????????

Trump should thank his lucky stars that Justin is not like his dad who was one of Canada's greatest PM's & he did not take in BS. from anyone in fact if Justin was like his dad the bleep button would get worn out & in person the secret service would half to pull them a part because there would be fight .

Thank you for your caring and concern. Canada is appreciated and loved by more Americans than you can imagine.

Thanks, Canada❤

What a dunce. Get this guy outta the discussion. He just wants to keep milking the US and Canada for his own status. Thank god clowns have a ceiling in politics. Screw you Treudue. You're the spawn of communist Fidel Castro from swinger parents who put your strings on at birth to make you a global puppet.

Please, please adopt Minnesota. We love Canada. Thank you for speaking directly to the US people. We are suffering and scared!

Thanks for understanding that ever so many Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine and are horrified by Trump and his Republican puppets

could you imagine what the men of your country will become when the leadership of your country is as soft as this man. No thanks Canada. This guy has sabotaged your country

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for your courageous and truthful words. U.S. citizens know Canada isn't acting against U.S. citizens, but against the U.S. Federal government as well it should. Canadians are lucky to have you in your role. I wish we here in the U.S. had someone of your caliber in the White House.

Germany and Europe stand behind our Canadian brothers and sisters! We will support you and, in case of doubt, help to defend you. Thank you for your great nation, you are a ray of hope in a very dark world led by egoists and enemies of democracy. May our great democratic nations stand together forever and let every anti-democratic wind smash against our walls. Oh Canada!\nOur home and native land!\nTrue patriot love in all of us command.

Thank you Canada \nFrom an Aussie

Thank you for all that you do to be good allies. There are a lot of Americans that DO NOT want this Tariff war with your friends to the north or the south. We did not vote for the orange pumpkin and his unreasonable shenanigans. Love you Canada.

as a Canadian, i would like to thank Donald and Elon for their plans to implement the most innovative degrowth agenda imaginable. why dance around the edges like Canada has with its consumer carbon tax that rebated more money to most citizens than they spent on carbon taxes ? no, the DOGE solution to addressing climate change is much better .. just cripple the three north american economies with tariffs, put hundreds of thousands of citizens out of work, and make the Trump tax cuts permanent so that the federal government is broke as well. no more money means no more spending or consuming .. it's a win for the entire planet !!

Thank you Mr T and Canada!

American student at a Canadian university: Thank you Canada, for speaking out. Many of us know this is wrong, and we do not blame you for the chaotic fall of the U.S. empire. I stand with Canada (and Mexico for that matter).

God bless Canada, a holy land. Thank Mr. Trudeau for your brilliant speech.

I L❤ve Canada ?? and Canadians are reasonable intelligent people across the board. Thank you Canada ?? for standing up to Fascism all over the world ?

Thank you Canada ❤

Thank you Canada ! Trump is killing us !

Aussie here. We are so sickened watching what’s going on in the US. It’s terrifying how fast Trump has turned against his allies. Canada, we Aussies love you and support you! Thank you for standing strong. To our American friends, keep fighting, keep protesting!

Now this is what an intelligent president look and sound like. Mr. Trudeau may I please be granted residency in Canada until this mess is over? Please and thank you.

THANK YOU!!! Thank You for doing what few have done. What few countries, what few leaders, especially our own leaders have had the BACK BONE to do. The world respects you. AMERICANS respect you!! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. I pray that you won't back down like other weak men and countries have. Thank You Canada, Americans love you. ?

I'm American...I love Canada! I have many friends there ! Thank you for standing up for Canada and actually for standing up for innocent Americans like me who never voted for this monster we have now as a president! I'm 50 and I've never ever seen anyone like the administration we have now ! My parents and my grandparents would be ashamed of Donald Trump especially my grandfather who was a world War 2 vet who received a purple heart award ! Shame on you Donald

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.

If not Fetanyl , did you ever said *Thank you? Joking , Great speech, stay strong Canada, from Eu.

We don’t want it either! We all admire Canada—thank YOU for standing up to that bloated orange sad excuse of a “president” we have.

Arizonan here, and we have a large Canadian population here and they support our Arizona economy year after year. Thank you Canada for being the adult in the room. Your leadership is appreciated and needed now more than ever.
