We américa people dont care about what you saying me I'm in américa I don't need nothing from you you are not helping me we don't need chemical from you for food to make us more sick

as a Canadian, all I can say is Trump has galvanized our nation not to take up arms, but not to ever capitulate to a bully. But I especially appreciate seeing all the people from around the world are standing with us, and that also includes americans that are equally upset by their president’s behavior.

I’ll say first that I’m a Canadian…\n\nTrudeau and his government has been in power almost 10years and in that time Canada has gotten progressively worse—the drug crisis; immigration; inflation etc etc. I find it shameful that it took a foreign leader (Trump) to ignite changes within my country. Are the tariffs fair to Canada? No, absolutely not but Trump is not the president of Canada—right, wrong or indifferent he’s looking out for the US. \n\nJustin Trudeau is a corrupt lame duck prime minister who technically resigned a month ago. \n\nTrump will listen to Canada and respect Canada when a new government is place

How long till Trump says Trudeau started the Tariff wars.

The Emperor has no clothes (toxicly batshit crazy), which Republicans are brave enough to say it & withhold support? Patients running the asylum - and to whose benefit? Enabling abusers NEVER ends well.

He says United States, but it doesn’t mean all of us - Just Trump

As an American, I don’t watch CNN clips and believe what politicians say on either side to get my news. However, it’s absolutely true that EU, and China places tariffs on the US. It is also true that United States provide most of the security for all the free nations. At what point do we say enough? I do not know if Mexico or Canada has tariffs on US goods before this. But if they did, they have become quite entitled, haven’t they.

This isn’t’anti-Americanism’ how about anti-Canadian? As an American I can only say this breaks my heart that Donald continues to sever relationships with our nearest neighbors and Allie’s. How sad for all of us. Now tighten your belts America. This will hurt but Donald will tell you how great this is for everyone in his usual stupid bravado.

I don't stand with a priminister who takes his peoples guns and freezes their bank accounts. I feel for their people. I've spent a lot of time in Canada, and I can say they never mess around at the border. I thought the tariff wasn't going to be levied against Canada. Not happy about it.

I don't think I've ever seen anything in my entire life that says made in Canada???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

As an American that saw the writing on the wall 7 years ago and left, I thank you Mr. Trudeau. You, and Canada are very much respected, and the world listens. Hopefully, decent Americans will overthrow the tyrant that 50% of them voted him in. To say I am ashamed of the USA as it stands is AWAY underwhelming. Much respect from Portugal, and long live Canada.

For my personal gain I was hoping that he can relaunch American economy but I can't see how bigger tariffs would work......inflation is really gonna go up......wonder if he'll just go on a lying campaign and say it's just fake news and we're doing great....

I'm American and I voted for this, Trump made it very clear he was going to put tariffs on, now CNN is saying the sky is falling ridiculous

GOOD FOR YOU TRUDEAU..WE HAVE MORONS IN THIS COUNTRY WHO WILL NOT SAY A WORD TO HIM.THEY ARE TERRIFIED OF HIM.

Say what you want about Donald Trump, at least he’s never seized/frozen American citizens bank accounts for going on strike. Can’t say the same for socialist dictator Trudeau. ?‍♂️

Canada on strike, Canada says no more! No more neglect, we want respect, that’s what we’re striking for. ?

As a European, I can say that Europe is next. \nSince the episode with Zelensky, an anti-United States wave has already been noticed

2nd time in one week I say thank you to a foriegn leader, standing up for there country against Trump. Thank you

We can gather everything that the pundits are saying. Just play the video of what the actual important person is saying. A bunch of people working at CNN who just want their faces on camera.

Absolutely NOBODY cares what Trudeau has to say, not even Canadians.

Can someone in the US at least teach that idiot Trump this VERY SIMPLE lesson?\n\n\nIf you want to improve linearly, compete!\nIf you want to improve exponentially, collaborate!\n\nBut it's hard to say whether an idiot who has only managed to do one thing in his entire life: waste his father's money, will understand this.

This made me laugh. ''This is some of the strongest language we have heard yet from the Prime Minister'' and ''He was using that harsh language'' ''All things that we have heard him say and maybe more nicer or friendlier terms before, but now your hearing a very direct harsh language from the Prime Minister'' Referring to Justin calling him by his first name and telling him he is a very smart guy but it's a very dumb thing to do. Really? mmmm Double standard ?

A guy who froze the bank accounts of his citizens because they protested one or another of his insane decisions.\n\nHe visited china or North Korea. He came home and told his people, Being a dictator (like china's and north korea's) would make it so much easier to govern.\n\nI have no interest in anything he has to say about anything.

I hate Trudeau as a Canadian I would love to see Poilievre take over for Canada, But i don't see what options other than retaliatory tariffs. Trudeau did the right thing really the only thing in regards to this as much as it pains me to say.

Notice that he didnt say anything about America working with Israel. I guess politicians say whatever is convenient.

Nobody takes anything the proud male feminist says or does seriously. He is a liar and a coward

Since when does TeeRumpAssNik ( Russia's Frontman) care about what anyone says .

Why does England, keep wanting to colonize the u.s, after making Joe Biden president and actually controlling the country try for some time? They lose, now want to use their pawns to use force, take control and then using their real name, say it wasn’t them?

I am an American I stand with what Canada say

CNN = pro Canada Anti American .....makes me sick ....Canadian = someone punches them in the face and they say I'm sorry .

Americans can come together and do something about this but they wont. The only thing they will do is say they stand with you but not actually do anything just a lot of pretending to care.

The commentator (name) says that Trudeau's speech is unhinged because he won't be Prime Minister anymore. NO! He speaks for us all.

Trumps dumbass logic is “people should do as I say just cause” no dipshit that’s not how things are done

As much as I disagree with most of Trudeau’s domestic politics I must say that this was a good address and seems to be where he is strongest. With that said though I still would not vote liberal in the next election.

Donald is dumb he says..

Don’t ever say HI to a Canadians they not are polite not even try saying hi to a Canadian on the street they look at you act like your an aliens

Also Justin Trudeau didn’t think Donald Trump was smart he said he agreed with the whichever newspaper it was Washington Post I think that even though Donald Trump is a smart guy this was a dumb thing. I don’t think he really agreed with the part about Donald Trump being a smart guy. But he definitely agrees with this being a dumb thing. He just had to say thatto stroke Cheetos ego

I don't care about what you saying or doing I love trump ❤️ ? ? ? ♥️ ? ❤️ ? ? ? ♥️ ?

why they dont say the same to Netanyahu as murderer?

Most Americans despise what Europe has turned into….a woke, globalist cesspool controlled by people like Soros and institutions like the WHO, WEF, ICC, and NATO. Their ultimate goal is for people to have zero national identity and to not be able to live without a welfare state. \n\nSome Canadian was crying online about tariffs saying good luck on your own against China. Buddy, you and Europe are socialist systems that can’t survive if not subsidized by the American taxpayers. Yeah it might sting us initially, but your whole system is going to be exposed and now you’re throwing a tantrum. It’s pathetic! Have fun owning the reconstruction of Ukraine and providing security guarantees. You guys can kick and scream all you want, Americans murdered Neo-Conservatism this election and it’s never coming back.

^^ of course Donald Gay Dumb doesn't like Justin Trudeau, because everything that the Canadian PM says, make sense... ????

Trump is a Russian plant and nothing anyone says is gonna stop trump for serving his master.

Just call him dumb... That's what I love about Canadians so polite, but Justin you can say he's dumb-AF! It's OK!! ;-)

There won't be a reaction from the White House for at least three days, because they are too stupid to understand what Trudeau is saying. Trudeau speaks English, but Trump speaks turd.

Canada being placing tariffs on the USA for years .. and now that the USA says no more you guys all upset now .. we want a even playing field

As a European American, I can truly say that I am embarrassed, shocked and disgusted by the actions of the Trump administration against our allies and partners across the world. 99.9% of American loves Canada and I am one of them!!! Stay strong because we have always overcome evil together!!!

Only thing I disagree with president Trudeau is\nDonald is not smart \nEverything he says and does is dumb

Trump says America is back!\n\n\nYeah, back to being a joke with a flat punchline

All these people here who say they stand with Canada are mostly likely those who voted for this criminal to be in office.. the only thing he accomplished is avoiding prison. Nothing he does benefits the usa people. Fires federal workers, bankrupt usa companies and etc.. he has to understand that bringing companies back into the usa take times..

I've got a hell of a idea let's say CANADA ?? should get BIGGER that would be a bit Chen idea.
