We will not back down ha your a joke, you haven’t done anything for the Canadians you have put us in the ground. You haven’t fought for are country in years. Sorry but I don’t believe you, never have and never will. You don’t care about us Canadians to you we are a number.

Trudeau, my brother, My words cannot begin to express to you or your people just how genuinely sorry I am for my country's utterly repulsive and inexcusable behavior throughout the last month and a half and for the downright cruel, hostile treatment you've suffered at the hands of the most incompetent, greedy, poorly educated, narcissistic, racist, sexist, xenophobic buffoon to ever preside over the United States. Not only is Donald Trump an overly privileged, pathetic, whiney crybaby who literally folds his arms, stomps his feet, and launches an all out temper tantrum whenever he doesn't get his way or when someone else has the TV remote, he is a dangerously delusional, high stakes risk taker who wouldn't think twice about using his own mother or child as a human body shield if he thought his life were in danger. There is absolutely no value, principle, moral or ethic he wouldn't betray without hesitation if he suspects there is anything at all to be gained - you know, the type of guy who would poison the entire neighborhood in order to hoard all the complimentary tampons and lip gloss samples from his neighbors' mail boxes just to ensure that he got first dibs on everything before anyone else. Incidentally, he is also the same type of guy who pockets all the flavored mini coffee creamers from the gas station and all the paper bed sheets and Qtips from the doctor's office. I wouldn't put it past him to steal the waitresses' tips off tabletops on his way out the door upon leaving McDonald's. In fact, I would bet everything that he steals the donation jars for Jerry's Kids at the local supermarket. I mean, its already a given that he is likely the guy who filed a lawsuit a few summers back against a sweet, innocent littls FOUR year old boy for having a lemonade stand on property not zoned for commercial use. If it wasn't Trump then I'm sure it's only because he was too busy ordering the National Guard to power hose and pepper spray the 30 or so elderly nuns who had been distributing bottled water to folks demonstrating in support of Black Lives Matter on the hottest day of the year. Satisfied in his victorious battle against the nuns - 9 of whom had been hospitalized for critical injuries including the 92 year old Mother Superior who suffered massive brain bleed, swelling and concussion due to the excessive force of the power hose and an 87 year old nun who lost permanent sight in one eye due to the pepper spray - Trump had the nerve to pose for a publicity shot in front of the church while holding a Bible - UPSIDE DOWN - and scrunching and contorting his face into that hideous trademark scowl he does ever so naturally. Yep. This is the man my fellow Americans chose to represent our nation as President - a man who beats up 90 year old nuns and imposes 25% tax hikes to our ONLY FRIEND in the entire world simply for refusing to accept his invitation for statehood. I mean, come on, Trudeau, is that really asking too much of you? Was it really worth bruising Donny's fragile little ego and sending him into a fit of rage? (Seriously, though, I suspect he really does feel as though you are in the wrong for refusing to humor his delusions and thus embarrassing him in front of all his Russian dictator and Ku Klux Klan buddies.)\nOnce again, I do humbly apologize and I promise I will support whatever actions you choose to take and I will help you in any way you deem is best. \nMuch love and peace always, \nMs. S. Delois Jackson

I’m sorry Canada

Trump launched the trade war that very few people in the US wanted, and those who did want it don't understand how the economy works and probably didn't graduate grade school. I'm sorry to our Canadian friends and neighbors. The US is a world embarrassment.

American here , we stand with Canada ?. We hate what's happening, please don't hate us! We are so sorry about tRump.

Sorry Canada. This isn’t the u s of a. It’s lil u s s r.

Trump is a Putin puppet. As an American, I am so sorry we are at this place with our neighbors.

I’m sorry why do people think trump is afraid of Russia ? Russia is choking against Ukraine in a war right now . Ukraine, how could they ever win a war against America when it’s taken them 3 years to still not win the war against Ukraine, the same country who’s president got kicked out of the White House ?

He lying and fake sorry folks gotta be honest

US don't need Canada hey Russia is greater than Canada if you do the math sorry.

Yeah I’m sorry but he calls for Trump to be civil and calls him dumb and calls him Donald? Canada is about to see fun times.

I feel sorry for people in the USA. It has to suck to have suck a crappy president. Hopefully these next 4 years goes by quick for you all.

this guy is a dictator and most Canadians hate him the very reason he was supposed to step down but refuses to have an election to replace him just like Ukraine. you pump Chinese goods across the borders allowing China to sell here with no tariffs. you allow China to pump fentanyl across the border as well just like Mexico has been doing. Im not feeling sorry for this dictator. people for freedom dont freeze the peoples bank accounts that protest them like you did. best for Canadians to replace this fool before he drags Canada under before he voluntarily steps down. good luck Canadian people in getting rid of this dictator.

First: sorry for my bad english. It is not my First language. \n\nThis speech was remarkable. No lies, no BS, just the facts. Wish we would here the same out of the White House. \n\nAs a german who knows about german history and how everything started back then I'm terrified how fast the United States of America are moving towards a dictatorship.\n\nEvery politician around the free world should be worried about what is going to happen if DT keeps doing what he is doing, which is undermining every treaty and contract the US is having with the rest of the world.\n\nAnd on a personal note: as a child I always dreamed of someday moving to the USA. After beeing there on holiday in 2017 and also driving to Canada to visit some friends, that dream changed.\n\nDon't get me wrong, I still love your country, but you elected the worst President for the second time! WHY??? You could have known what it would be like, everything was reported on by this network and many others.\n\nAs one commentator said: this is not going to end well. And I and most of Europe and the rest of the world are thinking the same and we are afraid of the things to come.

We know you don't want this, we don't either. We know our leader is destroying our country, we just aren't sure how to stop him right now. He has placed his people strategically. Sorry Canda

I am truly sorry with all that is happening in America.!!! I love Canada who always stood with the United States and now this is what is happening.!!! I support Canada.!!! Never voted for this government. But now, we are paying the price because of those who put this administration in the White House.!!!???

I'm sorry to break the news to everybody, but if we end up in world war III we need russia on our side. Plain and simple. NO OTHER WAY AROUND IT.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, the sane Americans still love you and your great country. This government is not who or what I voted for. I am so sorry, friends. I think MOST of us do not want this either. Our government is a failure and we need to change it. We, the people. The REAL people. Not the fake numbers you hear about from this corrupt administration that lies like it's their religion to do so. Keep doing the right thing for your people, and know you have our respect. Also, please have mercy when many of us seek to move to a more civilized nation.

As an American.... I'm sorry.

Oh Canada, so sorry the us has a Russian asset for prez, we hope to repair our relationship when he is gone

Sorry Canada for what’s going on. Our president is damaging our image and busy corresponding with the enemy that goes against what we stand for & morales. Apologies from an American that identifies with no party.

Sorry Canada he's a fool.

PM Trudeau: A special thank you for telling the truth. I am so saddened to find out what's happening to your and our countries. I am humiliated DONALD is such an egotistical idiotic unleader. So sorry for us all.

As an American citizen, I'm so sorry Canada.

As an American that did not nor never would vote for trump....there is no making sense out of his idiocy. He has made us less safe in the world, he has humiliated America. I cannot believe this is happening in my country, I'm so sad and sorry for the chaos he and the Republicans are causing.

BETTER WAKE-UP CANADA...YOUR LIBERAL LEADER IS TO BLAME.\n\nI AM SORRY, BUT YOU NEED TO MAKE TRADE DEFICIT EQUAL OR PAY TARIFFS. \n\nYOU TALKING LIKE THIS AND YOULL SEE WHAT IT IS WITHOUT THE LARGEST CONSUMING COUNTRY IN THE WORLD

As an American I can say with a full heart that I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. Donald Trump is a pig and the majority of the American people are complete and utter assholes for electing this deranged demagogue piece of shit. To the world at large, I'm deeply sorry for the stupidity of my people.

As an American, I'm sorry Canada. The US President is a tool. Please do whatever you have to do to protect yourselves.

We’re the reason the Geneva convention keeps getting longer. Go on, Donnie, try us. \n\nTo the American people: sorry. You elected the wrong guy.

I am very sorry for the damage and suffering that these tariffs and trade wars will cause to people in our two countries, as it is clear that many people are. It is obvious that Donald cares more about himself and his various fantasies than he cares about other people. Unfortunately, he is supported in this by his cabinet, congressional Republicans, and enough ill-intentioned voters to make this our new reality. I hope that there will be a point in the future when life will become friendly again.

Im so sorry Canada ,?\nMost of us do not agree with this admin....they are a disgrace to our country \ndoing evil to our democracy....we love Canada ????

I am American and am embarrassed by Donald Trump. I am so sorry and suffer along with you. Incidentally half of the Americans did not vote for him. Please pray for us.

Sorry, dear Canadians, for the oligophrenic president that our people temporarily brought to power.

Sorry, smart is something that Donald never was and still not is - idiot has no reading comprehension and thus makes stuff up on a go

Sad American here... You go, Trudeau! I'm with you and Canada! Also love that you called Donald out directly! Trudeau, you are a true leader! Hot stuff! America is totally fucked. I'm so sorry, Canada.

We are led by an idiot. Sorry, world. Hopefully, he won't make it four years.

Canada, we are so sorry and ashamed. We are proud of you for standing up to us and showing us what real friendship looks like. We are working to get better, but it may take awhile.

Sorry Justin is leaving. feel he could do good in these bad days. Merci Justin.

I'm sorry Trump is doing this. I think you and Canada are wonderful. My great grandmother was born in Canada. Putin and Trump are evil.

Trump is a joke get him and his golf club out of Ireland . Trump supporters are completely delusional . So sorry for the americans with half a brain ..........Trump is as mad as putin wake up maga idiots ........

What a nightmare, I'm so sorry your people and American innocent people are going to suffer the consequences of Trumps actions.\nLove to you, Canada.\nFrom Australia ❤

I’m so very sorry. I ❤ u ?? so much

I wanna move to Canada, what a wonderful president they have oh Canada we r sorry

I am so sorry Canada not all Americans suck!! A lot of us are fighting with you! Prayers for us all!!

Go Canada! Be tough on America. America deserves NO sympathy. I'm sorry. Most Americans are sorry about this situation. I hate the orange troll and I'm just as angry at the people that voted for him. But, I don't think even they thought he would do this and probably trusted the Congress to stop these things. But, the Republican side of Congress is made up of cowards. This will hurt America. I just hope in the end, this will make America better because people will realize the consequences of their stupidity. And stop electing spineless and evil representatives.

Sorry unfortunately Americans voted him back, I truly truly apologize from the other half who never wanted him back but we lost.

People tried ro warn you about the Cheerio in the white house..no bisness experience only closures..we americans will suffer for not electing correctly..canada were sorry we voted and allowed a fool run this country...

American here, I support you, Canada. I didn't vote for Trump. He is embarrassing our country. I am so sorry he's treating you badly. If your country wasn't so cold, I'd move to Canada in a heartbeat! You deserve to be treated better.

So so sorry for us all. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau. I pray we will be allies very soon.

And smart sorry america is stulid?
