As an American, I congratulate Prime Minister Trudeau for his bravery and leadership to stand against the spineless GOP.

SMH...shameful leadership. I hear cries of regret!

when will this guy step down? let the new leadership bargain with Trump

Trudeau....wow, real leadership instead of the circus we have. Elect a clown, get a circus.

Trump , vance and Musk , are not very smart , \nby open trade wars , only the people get hurt on both sides , \nand if USA go after europ then usa will loose even more , \nUsa need us as much as we need them , and Trump \nshould start thinking , becosue americans are loosing power as well \nmust of in europe dont see USA as western leadership anymore , \nthat eneded when people of USA was stupid enough to vote for trump and \nvance , we warned USA people this would happent and still they voted trump \nand now you want us to stand with you ,,,, honestly we have a saying that goes like this \nyou gonna lay in the bed you made , and if you complain about you better redue you bed ! \nSo RNC votes , do you feel the pain the trump a, vance and musk are doing to you , \nif you do then time to remove the idiots from power ! \nand btw , you should rename RNC to RNCC ( Real Northamerica Criminal Consortium)

Truedoe is paper tiger. He doesn’t understand deplomacy, politics or even leadership. His only qualification is that he is son on ex prime minister. He broght shame to canada throughout his career. Puppet of china

This is what leadership looks like. American’s needs to stand up for America. It’s time. If you truly are the land of the free it’s time to be brave.

This is what leadership looks like…

Great leadership. He clearly said what he means and we mean what he said.

This is the leadership we need right now. Bravo PM Trudeau!

Canada, please just focus on your refugee crime first. and Chinese raising real estate price. that is number one problem. stop using tariff to cover up bad leadership led Canada to today’s crisis. tariff will only affect little bit but crime and rocket high house price.

As a war vet I'm ashamed of the board of billionaires that have sold out our vets and seniors for wealthy tax cuts, shamed our friends in their time of need and propped up dictators while kicking the poor and disenfranchised. I'm 71 and I apologize to Europe, Mexico and Canada, Ukraine and Gaza for the shameful leadership we have sadly been saddled with here stateside!

The world witnessed the embodiment of evil in the Oval Office. \n\nIn Prime Minister Trudeau the world witnessed exemplary leadership and integrity. \n\nAs an American it pains me to say that I am ashamed of our nation’s leaders.

There is no leadership in the U.S. trump is a very weak president????????

What kind of leadership? The leadership of a certain people. “No one has ever lost money betting on the stupidity…etc..etc…”

Say, Canada....THIS is true leadership. Trudeau is not backing down even though he will step down later this month. He truly cares, please do not discard him.

LEADERSHIP

Canada has great leadership. The administration of West Russia are lying stupid imbecile s. America has a very bad Cancer at the moment

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, many of us Americans hate this too! I appreciate you distinguishing your relationship with the American people (those of us who are not for this), from the cruel leadership in the US who are imposing these harmful policies. I admire your leadership. You are a true, dignified, level headed leader. I wish we had that here in the US. I'm so sorry for what my government is doing to Canada?

That was what leadership sounds like. In America we have an orange clown who licks the boots of Putin.

As a Canadian, I encourage viewers to understand that PM Trudeau was turfed out by his own party and has ZERO credibility, despite his parading around the globe as if he is still Prime Minister of Canada. Our problem in Canada, is a complete lack of vision and initiative on the part of our political leadership, going all the way back to the years of Reagan and Mulroney.

Not only has Trump screwed the American people, so has Congress. What happened to the checks and balances? What happened to integrity? The current U.S. leadership is opening up their arms to Communism and turning their back on Democracy. Is this ever going to end?

A Californian here who recognizes what real leadership looks like. And it ain’t anywhere in the American government.

Trudeau comes up with an economic plan to weather the storm. Trump says Americans will be fine, tariff everyone, and have fun American farmers. The difference in leadership quality is palpable.

As a Kenyan, I support Canada. You have a leader for a PM. Wish we had this kind of leadership in this doomed country.

Mr. Trudeau...I am a 70 year old woman in Ohio, USA. All I can say is you're my friend... elbows up!!! Thank you for your leadership ??????

Wow, this is one hell of a speech by Trudeau. He's so pissed off, but such an incredible speech, strong leadership.

I got chills listening to this. This is what true leadership looks like.

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.

When Trudeau talks my ears go closed !! You need new leadership Canada!!

Trudeau is an example of true leadership! I have never been so ashamed of being an American

Trudeau spoke well. I did not vote for him but he is doing great work these days. Under his leadership, all Canadians are united in this fight against the USA. He is absolutely right, this stupid war will have no winners, only losers, with the exception of Russia. To the Americans who voted for Trump or did not bother to vote at all, this is on you.

The leadership of Trump is based on the NY Mafia bosses. His deals are: Nice Ukrainian children you have, it would be a pity, if something would happen to them. Let's make a $350 billion deal to prevent it.

Some countries still have real leadership, while the US is run by bootlicking clowns. This was an excellent speech by Trudeau.

TRUMP TRUDEUA 2016.... Trudeau inherited a strong economy from Harper. No talk of tariffs destroying Canada. It took a decade of poor liberal leadership.. to get Canada to the point that he's right.. tariffs woudl destroy Canada. That is what a decade of liberal/democrat leadership does to Canada's economy. Trudeau is a weak leader. His strongest points were thrownig not one, not two, but THREE women, three ELECTED EXPERIENCED WOMEN... telling them to step aside. A MAN FROM WEF IS COMING THROUGH! Carney's greatest strength will be stepping over the political corpses of women so an UNELECTED INEXPERIENCED MAN can lead.

I don't know but this sure sounds like Leadership?

Of course it's CNN. Trudeau, you do not represent Canadians. You have destroyed Canada and only now because of Trump you are dealing with the horrid fentanyl problem that is killing our communities. You have not fixed our health care system nor our political system. YOU NEED TO JUST GO, STOP YOUR EGO DRIVEN LAST GASP AT LEADERSHIP. You prorogued our own government, basically shut down debate and decision making in Canada while you parade yourself around the global world. NOW YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT CANADA FIRST, when a short two months ago you were pushing Canada for the past 9 years as a post national state. You are posturing and have no credibility in Canada or globally. YOU DID NOT WORK WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU CAME UP WITH NO PLAN BASED ON WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE U.S. YOU JUST WANT TO PREEN AND SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA AND SKIRT AROUND RESPECTFUL NEGOTIATIONS WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP BECAUSE YOU ARE MANIPULATING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. Just take that walk Trudeau and be gone, you have 3 more days and then we do not want to see you again.

America you are only as good as your elected leadership, and by that metric we Canadians want nothing to do with you right now. You lost your way.

Trudeau is a has been.. Canada has no leadership right now until an election. Dont worry USA Canada will be fine.

Among the best speech ? ever given out , Canadian care for their brothers but how do trump leadership care about Americans citizens and his follow brother Canada ??

True leadership! Well done! Impeach Trump and Vance!!! How many people have to suffer???

True Leadership ?

True Leadership ?

True Leadership ?

Justin Trudeau exemplified true leadership in this speech. I have never been prouder of our Govt in standing up to a bully.

From Indiana, I did not vote for Trump or trade wars and completely regret Trump's incompetent handling of relations with allies Ukraine and Canada.\nI have so much respect for the leadership of Canada and Ukraine. May God help us.

I had lost trust in Trudeau but his leadership here and over the past month has been refreshing.

A true leader-great leadership qualities, plus articulate & intelligent

A German here! After that Speech I want to be a Canadian! THAT is Leadership!

The law enforcement agency leadership in the United States that Canada is working with, involving drug trafficking and organized crime , is being fired and let go by the MAGA administration?
