Are you listening\nDonald trump looking for wealth ,Putin seeking power control, Donald trump falling for it ,Putin don't trust America

Listen up you do not disrespect the oval office or our president. You are an idiot if you are trying to get. President Trump. Bad side. Nooooooo that’s wrong. You will pay…zzzz

How refreshing to listen to an intelligent leader. ?

A mature and considered response from a grownup. Let's hope the spoilt brats listen

I normally can’t listen to him (or most politicians, honestly) without significant eye rolling, but every once in a while he really nails it ??

For all those who voted for Trump....yes all these tariffs mean harm to the American citizens in rising costs that we will not be able to afford, as we are already struggling......listen to Canada speech to us.....

Don’t listen to this liar. Don’t be fooled. He’s a puppet for the World Economic Forum. He’s worked very hard to destroy Canada. He’s resigning in a few days. It can’t come any sooner.

I don’t have a particular political leaning, but listening to this guy speak is enlightening. He’s intelligent, rational, reasonable and statesmanlike. Basically he’s a grown-up. His counterpart over the border is a petulant, ignorant man-child who shouldn’t be in charge of a dime store, never mind a country.

Club 92% and Club 80% tried to warn other US voters but no one wanted to listen to us. Oh well ???

This twit is so hard to listen too... Saber ratteling and explaining how he and his government will take avantage of this situation to Screw Canadians over again..

Wow. It’s so strange to watch and listen to an actual leader who is smart and articulate and who is clear and reasonable.

Who even listens to this guy

Trudeau is a WEF idiot. His dictatorial crackdown during covid was second only to Australia. \nHow and why people listen to,or believe anything he says is beyond me. Canada is beautiful and the vast majority of its people are wonderful but Trudeau is... Really !

Thank you PM Trudeau for this speech. i hope my fellow Americans are listening-so we begin process for returning to truth, honesty, friendship with our allies, and an intelligent realistic president and government. A government which doesn't bow to Putin.

I hope Trump supporters listen to this man!! HE is telling the truth that Trump and his cronies won't tell you!!

I had to stop listening to this panty waste! We have been trying to understand for TEN YEARS, what the Liberal/NDP Coalition has been doing/saying. Why did it take a President from another country, to threaten tariffs for them to do their jobs? Sell Out Singh, is just as much to blame, as is Croatia Freeland, Mark “Carnage” Carney! Carney probably made a deal with DT for all of this!! I am not a fan of DT, not even close, and it pains me to agree with some of the things he’s saying. JT, says 1% of drugs come from here. That’s 1000% ? ?!! They don’t even check the ports. This dude at the border is a friend of JT’s, just like everyone in his cabinet! His old babysitter, his best man, at his wedding… IRS an absolute disgrace what’s happening here! I/we just want our country back, that’s it! We NEED an election and complete change of government! JT, the failed drama teacher, had zero business being a politician, let alone a PM!! He is the absolute disgrace of Canada! His legacy, is FAILURE. Hopefully these tariffs leave when Trudope/Carnage and Sell Out are gone from office! ??????????

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, for some clarity during these very troubling times. My hope is people in my country, the USA, will finally begin to listen carefully, and think about the ramifications of voting Trump into office again. Sadly, populist demagogues attract attention by suggesting easy answers to very complex problems. Or to put it more simply, by repeatedly lying.

The first CNN correspondent Paula’s toxic reframing of what the Prime Minister just eloquently shared with strength and respect is appalling. Infusing the term ‘anti-Americanism’ is 100% irresponsible journalism and incorrect on all levels. Listen to her manipulative dishonest expose at 10:15…\nThen, same dishonest propaganda from Alayna at 14:45… \n\nThe humans responsible for poor relations globally are people like Paula, Alayna, and everyone else from the far right which are unfortunately employed on purpose by the for propaganda and destructive political agendas. Shame on these unprofessionals and shame on imbecile 47 indefinitely for the deplorable lack of character and diplomacy, and absence of leadership that would otherwise be in place in order to serve the people. Trump is causing harm to his own country on all levels. \n\nTrudeau and Canada continue to be terrific neighbors with the US and care for our American friends, coworkers and families. The morons sitting in the White House attempting to bully long-standing allies globally are the only jerks creating relational fractures internationally. \n\nFrom, ??

From Canada, Trudeau is just a looser. He destroyed our country. Never listen to his crap ?.

proud Canadian here. We will be a better country in the end.. Hopefully Canadians are listening and keep the canadian trump out of office here.

would have loved to have gotten to listen to him answer all the questions instead of you 3 blah blah blah the same things you said 10 min earlier. Now i have to go find the full thing elsewhere so i can hear it all.

Listen to you're trying to change the American people who voted for Trump that's never going to happen will back him forever.. I've heard enough of this mess

Brilliant speech! It would be impossible for me to listen to Trump speak for that long. Probably a minute would be my limit before my brain turned to mush.

Anyone listening to this tyrant must have a short memory. He has taken your right to defend yourself , your freedom of speech, remember the trucker protest? This guy is a globalist cuck. Hope you guys vote in better leadership.

I can't be arsed to listen to this ? end, Trump just struck a 160 billion dollar deal in chip manufacturing that is only the start of what he is going to do for America.\nJust one deal has just put Trudeau back in his box ?\nThe sooner this commie establishment puppet is gone the better it will be for Canada.\nGood luck with this puppet talking for you Canada, I wish you well!

Couldn’t keep listening to CNN’s lousy response.

I’m sorry, what did she say? I wasn’t listening ??

I swear my encourage was Obama to learn English. He spoke very well. When I listen to Trump I want to forget it

No one will listen but thanks for trying.

Unfortunately having a hard time listening... She's so beautiful..

I have a hard time listening to a man who put his own party before Canadians.

Some MAGA maniacs, they may be listening to this may experience brain burst , too many words in one press conference that all are understandable and make sense and can be fact checked

I am a US citizen and I stand with Canada and Ukraine. It is so validating to listen to someone who speaks the truth, a privilege we don't have in the USA. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau.

We need people getting on fox and saying this stuff, CNN crowd already knows what's up. We need to be in republican spaces pointing out all of this stuff, but to get them to listen you can't be all ' I told you so' or confrontational, because they won't listen to anything else after that

So you guys want to listen to this guys the guy who destroyed Canada ? the one who let all the Indians in and make homes unaffordable.

Finally Canada listen to America and it will be resolved by reasonable and fair.

Great listening to Trudeau a person that makes sense unlike the grifter that we have

? u trump voters. You just don't listen or believe the facts.

Listen Trump lied to Americans he said he don't know project 2025 fired our federal workers Americans are not to blame for Trump lies your issue is with him not the citizens once again he lied to us

Cant listen he makes me sick

Now are there Americans clever enough to listen, that's the question!!

If Americans listen properly they will know that president donald trump loves to address other presidents without using their titles. Even Netanyahu was addressed as BB throughout their last meeting.

Well done, PM Trudeau. You made us proud as Canadians. You said it like it is. Donald, and I noticed you refrained from calling him President Trump because he is certainly not acting like a president, Donald is siding with our enemies, snuggling up to a malicious dictator rather than taking a stand for right and for the common good. He has absolutely no reason to impose tariffs and is actually breaking legal agreements to do so, but we all know that Trump believes he is above the law. If you like this speech, go and listen to Premier Ford of Ontario as he threatens to tariff all the energy which flows into the States or even just cut it off. Nobody wins in this war, certainly not Americans. But Elon and Donald don't care. They are filthy rich and will just plan chaos and world domination in their sandbox while everyone else in the USA takes the hit.

You say there's no need or reason for these tariffs but that is according to you. Donald Trump has made it very clear what he asks from the Canadian people. You are choosing to do something but not everything he's asking. He doesn't want to be unfair to anybody, but he also doesn't want to be treated unfairly as a country. So please listen to what he asks. He holds all the cards again. He can and will destroy your economy and you will become his and our 51st State. Thank you

Trump won't listen

So nice to listen to a man who is educated and makes sense for a change, standing with Canada xxx UK

I guess Justin should have listened earlier!

People of the US, please listen to this grownup. What he’s saying makes perfect sense.

Dear Canada. Trying to reason with the people of the United States won't work because the MAGA have been brainwashed and you can't reason with a brainwashed person - they will only listen to and believe their Dear Leader. The rest of us - those not brainwashed - don't need to be reasoned with because we are still and will always be your friends.

Anyone listening to Trump's psychoblabla after watching this will realise how dumb Trump is.\n\nAs a Canadian, Im very proud of PM Trudeau today.
