This guy is not our PM he resigned so he put the government out while the liberals have their leadership crisis as the country hangs in the balance. He is nothing but empty words!

That's leadership!

The Executive Branch of the United States is occupied by the biggest f*ing elites on the entire planet, Putin's pet kleptocrat Trump, his foreign oligarch boyfriend Elon and a clown show of a cabinet. The most incompetent US administration of all time. Thanks Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland. Lindsay Graham. Josh Hawley. Chuck Grassley. Canadian born Ted Cruz, who doesn't even defend his wife, much less the country. Leadership like that does not belong in NATO, it's what NATO was meant to protect us, Canada and the United States, from.

Excellent speech from PM Trudeau! An example of true leadership! From Illinois and standing with my Canadian friends and allies! Trump, Vance, and Musk are repulsive, sickening, and a shameful embarrassment to the US! I hope the US can recover someday. ?

Well said Justin. You are really showing your chops! I You are polite and you have backbone! We have seen such great leadership from Trudeau and Zelensky! How does the world support Canadians?

People in America, the free Americans, are weeping as we hear the brave words of other leaders and they yern for that leadership to save them from tyranny at home.

Trudeau showing what real leadership looks like.

It is said that if America imposes a tarrif on Canada, then Americans will pay more for Canadian goods. Possibly electricity too. Now, if Canada mirrors the actions of the US, then Canadians will have to pay more for American goods. So we are all just hurting ourselves in a way. Don't you love modern leadership? I suppose it's better than dropping bombs. But it's vile.

This is another example of a true leader. Canada and Ukraine have been very blessed with their chosen leadership.

TO BAD THE REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP DON'T CARE ABOUT THE CHILDREN OF AMERICA'S FUTURE.

Hey Republicans... This is what Leadership is supposed to look like.\nYour Mango Messiah is dumber than a rock, a complete and total moron... but hey, it's all about you and you got abortion laws changed, so keep sucking his itty bitty pee pee... \nTime for Republicans to Stand Up for Democracy. If you ever had a spine, it's time to actually stand up and use it.

This is what leadership looks like!

PM JustinTrudeau is combative, strong addressing the 'other guy' by ‘first’ name, defiant and intrepid with exceptionally effective and decisive leadership skills - his (late)father would have used his inimitable fingers to tell anyone off……

The Drug Fentanyl is coming into the USA because Americans want it to come in .\n. America would be better employed finding the reason for people to need this narcotic .Maybe it's because your . society is so unfair, maybe it's because you have so many people without money, possessions, education and opportunities . Maybe it's because you don't look after your sick and elderly and UNDERPRIVILEGED.. Trump should not blame other country's HE SHOULD ACT LIKE A REAL LEADER . And show leadership AND focused on improving the well-being of all citizens.

Im Canadian....not that I agree with the tariffs, but this POS Trudeau has shut down government the last 2 months. Nothing is getting done. He has time to fly to Ukraine but no time to sit down and hammer out a deal with the USA. He has caused all the issues Trump has complained about. He has destroyed our country from within. He is the worst neighbor a country can ask for. Weak leadership. Porous unsecure border. Weakest military of any first world nation. And a disciple of China. He is ALL OUR ENEMY!

I am so very sorry that my country, America. I am so ashamed of our country's leadership.\nThere is NO way your people or ours should have to be going through this.\nOur government is filled with oligarchs that think they can get away with these disgraceful, disgusting actions.\nI am so very sorry. ?\nSincerely, an American who believes in working together.

As a Retired US Marine, I am in aww, if you are US Military and voted for Trump… as your leader… who has no leadership traits … than you are a traitor and have failed to uphold your oath to the constitution..not to a king or wanna be dictator.. HONOR COURAGE COMMITMENT … SF 1775 ???

This is true leadership! Support for Canada… Trump cabinet needs to get it together…

The End of an Worldsuperpower.... didnt believe to see it in my lifetime... but this is definetly is the end of US Leadership... irrepairable damage... no trust anymore

To our Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, excellent communication, excellent speech, and excellent leadership ? ??

I have my quarrels with some policies enacted by my government, and I have my issues with Trudeau himself.. But this is leadership. Eloquent, passionate and reasonable. Oh! and in two languages. Admit it, Americans, you wish you had this kind of leadership.

It amazes me that Canada still allows this clown ro drive them over the cliff. Guys like him can't make a deal in favor of their people because they refuse to goto to the table and act like a logical intelligent adult. Goid luck with this guy Canucks.\n\nThis man is a corrupt enemy of the US plain and simple. Canada deserves better. His actions will hurt Canada far more than the US.\n\nKeep in mind this whole thing has alot to do with stopping fentanyl coming across our border.\n\nThis man lies and twists the truth - as he always has. This would not be happening if he was right - but its happening. The US doesn't want to hurt Canada but we are done being hurt by Canada's corrupt leadership

USA don't be fooled by JT here - Canadian here - this is all for show. He resigned as PM and they are too busy screwing around to get a new leader to become PM then holding Canada hostage with no election in sight. He prouged Parliament, basically shutting it down, for this leadership game and none of them are qualified leaders. It will be the same. \n\nWe needed a vote of non-confidence years ago and it was voted out because Liberals had a coalition with the NDP. Canada needs a conservative government and if we did have this - we would not be here now. \n\nAmerica - you pissed off Canada who was already pissed off to being with and now you have amplified it more so. We have no money because it all went into this guys and his friends pockets. The scandals are so long that they can't be listed here. Thanks for ripping us off even more so now. We helped you - now you help us!

The U.S. leadership is “lying through their teeth” about fentanyl concerns motivating the trade war, aka Trump and Nutlick

From Europe: This is what strong leadership looks like. Thank you Trudeau

Our canadian leaders need to keep saying it's not rhe americans we have something against it's their leadership.

This is leadership not what we have in America

Here in Florida, plenty of us support Trudeau. We will pay the price for this administration’s poor leadership and poor performance.

Trudeau the clown actor hahaha suck it up WEF boy the US can shove off too. The entire western leadership is wholly rotten, corrupt and full of clowns.\n\nExplain how the politicians come out as multi millionaires.\n\nThis is not about China or Russia it's about us our institutions that have been RUN INTO THE GROUND. There is no truth and honesty just an echo chamber of lies and delusions.\n\nHeaven help us all. Biden was bad, Obama was bad, Bush was bad, Clinton was bad and yes Trump is bad heck Trump grifts on a crypto coin as a FU to any sort of integrity and honesty.\n\nThe system is headed for total collapse

Trudeau has been the PM of Canada since 2015. Through some very challenging times but now he is rising to meet the most serious issue of his leadership. He has unified the country against a troublesome individual.

Trump’s policies are hurting the American economy. Sorry for the poor leadership.

Huge difference in leadership with the one in USA.

Trudeau said it - it’s all because of one guy. Throw Trump and all of his toadies out and let’s get back to business together. He is dismantling your country and these tariffs are simply one mechanism that he’s using to ruin the US. The US is no longer in the position of world leadership and respect and it took Trump less than two months to do that. Your government is failing you and hurting you. Throw them out now.

Why does he continue to provoke the US president? He resigned and rather step down with dignity, he chooses cause as much damage before he leaves. Justin Trudeau bears full responsibility for the burdens Canadians now face. He imposed and continually increased the carbon tax, draining the pockets of hardworking citizens while offering little in return. He neglected Canada’s NATO commitments, failing to uphold our obligations on the world stage. His tenure has been marred by repeated ethical scandals, each one a testament to his disregard for integrity in leadership. \n\nNow, as the weight of his missteps comes full circle, he faces the consequences of his own policies. The economic strain he placed on his own people is now mirrored in the tariffs and pressures from the United States—a reckoning of his own making. And even in his resignation, rather than stepping aside with dignity, he continues to provoke President Trump with baseless rhetoric, further endangering Canada’s relationship with its greatest ally. \n\nTrudeau’s legacy will not be one of progress, but of division, economic hardship, and lost opportunities. And now, he reaps what he has sown.

Dear Canada. Please build a Wall. The US should be treated like the 3rd World Country leadership is acting like. Sincerely a True Patriotic American.

I am American and i disavow are evil leadership. Trump is a dark thing to happen to this country. I stand with Canada and Trudeau. These are dark times. Maga is very popular here and I think vance could be the next president for 8 years. Maga is evil and must be defeated.

We are SO SORRY, Canada! \nThere are MILLIONS of American’s who feel the same… “Make it make sense?!” Thank you Canada for years of wonderful relations. This is what the people want to continue. Thank you PM Trudeau, for speaking the truth and speaking directly to us and our current, unfortunate leadership with facts and decorum. We applaud you standing your ground. Stay strong against our bullying government. It’s a sad, sad time. ❤️‍?

Great speech and great leadership. Best wishes from Lithuania, Europe

Mr. President Trudeau! Well spoken. It makes NO SENSE that two allied partners have a wedge driven between them based on falicies fed to the USA public from their leadership. As you said, … “this is a dumb thing to do”

I am an American who envies Canadians, Ukrainians and other Europeans for having true leadership. ?

Clearly American leadership seems to think that it can stand alone.....

Never been prouder of being a Canadian, very proud of our leadership

As a U.S. Army veteran who proudly served this country, my love for America and unwavering respect for the Constitution drive me to speak out. What Trump did in that meeting with Zelensky wasn’t strength, it was weakness disguised as tough talk. Pressuring Ukraine to negotiate from a position of desperation only empowers Russia and signals to the world that U.S. commitments mean nothing.\n\nTrue leadership isn’t about catering to dictators or throwing allies under the bus. It’s about standing firm for democracy, national security, and the principles this country was built on. If we let billionaires and politicians treat global conflicts like a business deal, we’re betraying everything generations of Americans fought and died for. I won’t stay silent while our country’s integrity is sold off for personal gain. America deserves better.

This is what real leadership looks like

The Arab leadership has a far higher IQ and honesty level than that of the west

Very good summary. I will add that our I know you wanted to be concise and you nailed it. For anyone who is curious about how our politics make everything worse for us federally, let me explain it in a short time.\n\nTrudeau as of the day of this video, March 3, 2025, is STILL the PM. He said he WOULD resign once a new leader was picked through a democratic process. Right now, he's basically just doing photo ops in Ukraine, UK and anywhere else on our dime because Parliament is prorogued and the party in power, Liberal, is having a leadership race. So, while he may resign within the week once that leadership race is done, he's still technically in charge.\n\nWhat makes that race and the PM's prorogation so bad is that we're in the middle of a crisis - several actually - caused in part directly by Trudeau and his Liberals (and the NDP supporting them). The latest would be Trump's tariffs starting today, March 4, 2025. Trudeau always disappears during a crisis, leaving us to fend for ourselves - (1) COVID, he was at the cottage using every excuse not to be accountable for anything or using unconstitutional powers to crush a protest he didn't know how to handle, (2) Chinese spies, he's ignoring our intelligence service, (3) federal worker strike, he's in NYC at some gala.... I could go on but there's a reason we're hurting so bad.\n\nWe have zero federal leadership, and a federal government that makes things worse for us with things like: over-regulation, subsidizing media to keep us misinformed, nerfing select natural resource sectors but favoring others (oil and gas suffer, while coal is fine... probably because we sell it to China, but I digress), letting criminal out of jail, uncontrolled immigration, passing policies like the FHSA that drive home prices higher and higher, and of course, more and more taxes. I could go on about the billions in taxpayers' money the government blows - it's like a black hole - or the fact that MPs keep getting raises - April 1 is their fifth since COVID - and most federal and government employees are all getting raises at a time when the rest of us are learning to get by with less and less because we're taxed so much and housing, groceries, etc. are so unaffordable.\n\nI have applied for US citizenship. I want to stick around to fix Canada, but I think it's too far gone. We have too many socialists/communists in power and they're not getting voted out any time soon. It's been fun Canada, it's been fun.

The Dem Liberal Left Leadership is the illegal acting ruination of America.....

Saudi Arabia and the UAE have not officially taken in large numbers of Palestinian refugees for several reasons, rooted in historical, political, and strategic considerations:\n\n1. Political and Historical Context\n\t•\tArab League Policy (1950s-1960s): Many Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia and the UAE, follow a long-standing policy of not granting full citizenship to Palestinian refugees to preserve their right to return to their homeland. The idea is to prevent the permanent resettlement of Palestinians outside of Palestine, which could weaken their claim to the land.\n\t•\tPrevious Palestinian Expulsions: Gulf countries have had tense relations with Palestinian leadership in the past. For example, Kuwait expelled around 400,000 Palestinians after the 1991 Gulf War because the PLO supported Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait.\n\n2. Citizenship and Integration Policies\n\t•\tGulf states have strict immigration and citizenship policies, even for other Arabs. They generally do not grant permanent residency or citizenship to foreigners, including Palestinians.\n\t•\tEven Palestinians already living in the Gulf (many of whom work there) typically hold Jordanian, Lebanese, or Egyptian travel documents rather than Gulf passports.\n\n3. Demographic and Economic Considerations\n\t•\tThe UAE and Saudi Arabia have large populations of migrant workers, mostly from South Asia and other Arab countries. Bringing in large numbers of Palestinian refugees could create social, economic, and political challenges.\n\t•\tThe Gulf states prefer to offer financial aid rather than resettlement, as seen in their donations to the Palestinian Authority and humanitarian aid for Gaza.\n\n4. Changing Political Alignments\n\t•\tSaudi Arabia and the UAE have been shifting toward normalization with Israel as part of broader geopolitical and economic strategies. Taking in large numbers of Palestinian refugees could strain these developing ties.\n\t•\tThe UAE was the first Gulf country to sign the Abraham Accords with Israel in 2020, and Saudi Arabia has been engaging in quiet diplomacy with Israel.\n\n5. Security Concerns\n\t•\tGulf states are cautious about allowing politically active or militant groups into their borders. Given the history of Palestinian militant movements, there may be concerns about internal security and potential destabilization.\n\nWhat Do They Offer Instead?\n\t•\tGulf countries provide financial aid to Palestinian causes and UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency).\n\t•\tSaudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar have invested in reconstruction projects in Gaza and the West Bank.

NYC= pathetic leadership pathetic laws pathetic voters. Get your $hit together

Sorry from Canada, this is not us, new leadership is on the way and will be having stricter immigration rules guys.
