Douchebag Donald must ask the University of Pennsylvania to refund him for the Bachelor of Science in economics because there’s absolutely no evidence that he actually learned something about economics, or ever will.

As an American, I am proud of you Canada!! You are showing class, integrity, and good morals. What is happening in our country is absolutely unacceptable and makes me sad. I also stand with Mexico and Ukraine.

Trump has sold us out to RUSSIA AND CHINA \nSTOP TRUMP\nHES A COMPLETE IDIOT. A COMPLETE ABSOLUTE IDIOT

I am absolutely ashamed of our country for allowing Donald J Trump and malignant narcissistic sociopathic criminal conman racist bigoted rapist twice impeached felon insurrectionist cult leading asshole Dictator into our Oval Office!!!!!!

I agree with absolutely everything Trudeau has said in his speech except for calling Trump a smart man. Trump is definitely not smart, quite the opposite. I understand that Trudeau needs to have his ego stroked, but lying to the world about Trump‘s intelligence is pointless. Those Americans, who ARE smart must remove Trump and the Republicans from office ASAP

Trump is not a president but a small child who absolutely wants his own way and therefore only lies all the time, he doesn't care because he is protected and provided for by the state treasury

Well said Mr. Trudeau! We Canadians absolutely support your statements. I certainly hope, that if the US remove the said tariffs, that we will keep our export tariffs on the selected products for 4 years. Let the next ad ministration get the win of us removing the tariffs. Yes we will go through a rough time, but we will get through it. Enough with the threats from Trump.

A smart man? He is nothing less than an absolute dumb prick...

Trump will insult our Prime Minister. He will make him sound like an idiot! The only idiot is Trump! He has absolutely no idea what he’s doing or talking about! No idea!

This guy is absolute idiot. America doesn’t need Canada. Canada needs the USA. This guy is a communist. Trump is trying to stop an endless war with casualties and this clown is trying to compare it to tariffs. And who is watching this clown show called CNN THE FAKE NEWS CHANNEL. Lol.

Oh my god. I am so ashamed right now. I absolutely can not. When you wake up and see we're in a trade war with the most loveable people on earth, something is bad off.

Absolutely ridiculous!

It is absolutely disgusting what he has done to his OWN country.\nHated by his own people.

Absolutely brilliant. Governments of the world take note. This is how a nation should be managed. How much extra parliament and politicians do we need when this 1 man and his team can achieve such an honest an genuine connection to his people it puts all others to shame.

I'm in Ontario. Our liquor stores have absolutely pulled all American products. Darn shame for both of us.\n\nIf your area gets their power from Ontario, invest in energy-efficient everything as fast as possible. Doug Ford isn't messing around, and I don't like what he's fitting to do.

Trump must’ve made a ——->personal,,,$,,, <——-DEAL <——- with Putin to act dummy like this, absolute nonsense, a narcissist only thinks about himself,, he, him and himself only, time to get in the street and the White House and make Trump feel what he has done to the other party before! July 6 seems like a good time!

I absolutely appreciate your speech. I didn't vote for any of this. I'm scared.

I'm so jealous of Canada rn. They have a competent leader. This is insane that tRump keeps attacking our ALLIES AND SIDING WITH FCKIN RUSSIA AND NORTH KOREA!! I'm disgusted at the people who voted for this bafoon and our government and the Republicans who won't find a damn backbone and save our country from this evil pos. I can't be mad at Trudeau or Canada, were fully in the wrong. & The way he's placating trump at the end is hilarious cause he knows being fully honest will make trump the pentulent toddler have a big tantrum. Someone help us. Y'all just couldn't let Kamala win. We would be in much better hands. Y'all suck. As an American I absolutely stand w Canada! Trump is wrong!!!

I feel sick, sad, angry, and scared with everything going on right now. As a veteran, my heart is absolutely broken.\n\nWe're stuck between a rock and a hard place right now. The MAGA refuse to see or believe what's going on. They've been 100% brainwashed. The people in our government who can do something are standing back and laughing us off. It's very surreal. And very few of us have been able to save up enough to move. And moving to another country is incredibly expensive and difficult.\n\nI did not vote for Trump. Many didn't. Those who did are too proud to admit that what's going on is wrong. So long as it punishes people who think differently than them, they're glad to cut off their own arms to do so.

Way to Mr. Trudeau. You absolutely nailed the idiot across the our boarder. \nHIP HIP HURRY!!!??????????

Absolutely LOVE this guy! A great leader who is very intelligent and speaks so well that even a Trump MAGGOT IDIOT can even understand! \n\nSomeone like this is very much needed to tell them just what their chosen cult leader is bringing them, lol. GOOOOO Canada! ????????

The President of the United States is trying to destroy America economically in my opinion. Don’t take it personal Canada. He’s fired over 20,000 people from their jobs with absolute disregard in disrespect. He left to get rid of which employed 7000 people! Trump led the charge to get rid of TikTok and then he left Office and it happened but he’s the one who started it all 7000 people lost their job jobs. He’s cutting Services to all American people with all these job losses and he doesn’t care!! He just cares about his wife, Elon, and making America white again! To start trade, wars is crazy when we’re just recovering economically from the pandemic, but he doesn’t care because being the president has made him rich because he breaks every law!! I’m so sorry Canada that we have so many idiots in this country that voted for this man because they’re racist and they wanna make America white again. It’s not about making America great it’s about making it white. Unless you do one of those so-called what he calls black jobs. Don’t really need to explain anymore than that. Either know some history or don’t. Hopefully this idiot will either change his mind when he realize what a catastrophe he’s caused or he’ll be gone soon!! From an American, who did not vote for Trump and never would vote for Trump with good reason!!

trump is absolutely crazy

I do believe i have family by blood in Canada, now I know i have family by moral all over Canada. This may hit you first, it will hit us too. May we stand united against this sorrow. With absolute respect from a scandinavian citizen

LMAO, Trudeau talking to us Americans like we have a say. WTF are we gonna do? Drag the Repubs out of the White House? No thanks. I appreciate having living quarters outside of Gitmo. These assholes need to just keep having a go at each other and leave us the fuck out of it. It's their show anyway. None of them ever follow our will. If they did, we wouldn't have charter schools and public schools wouldn't have been an absolute joke before Trump started trying to shut it down.

You are absolutely right!!

Keep standing proud, Canada, and Ukraine. Most Americans definitely understand that this is unnecessary and not what we as a nation stand for. Don't be bullied, or shamed into any deal with this administration. It's full of greed and absolutely untrustworthy. Please don't blame us all. I'm a metro Detroit resident. Canada is my neighbor and friend.

When Canada makes the US look like the immature, dangerous, foolish country that we are. What an absolute embarrassment….

absolute idiot

Like the vast majority of Americans, may you know that my husband and I feel the same way as you, Prime Minister Trudeau! We are appalled and disgusted with the catastrophic damage that our government is causing to our dear allies, and it grieves us deeply that Putin is being treated with respect while we are literally stabbing our loyal, long-standing allies in the back. I have no words to convey our absolute horror in the face of such disrespectful, disgusting, and dangerous behavior! Our sincere apologies, and may God have mercy on all those souls who have already paid the highest price for these selfish, power - driven decisions!

When Canada makes the US look like the immature, dangerous, foolish country that we are. What an absolute embarrassment….

Ukraine clearly understand Canada and support. Trump is absolutely wrong.

There's many reasons not to like Trudeau up here in Canada, many of which are the reason he'll (rightfully) no longer be the PM next week. As a conservative I hated him for SNC-Lavalin (among other scandals), and the fact that his inexperience with the economy Harper left him is probably part of why this trade war is going to hurt more than it could have, and the fact that he's often been kind of a phony more concerned with looking and sounding good for the press cameras. Not this time. Nothing phony here; I've got to give credit to him for capturing the national mood pretty much perfectly with this speech. Good on him. \n\nAnd congratulations as well to Donald for pretty much handing the Liberals their best shot at a fourth term, too. What an absolute idiot. Normally I'd turn my nose up at having to vote Liberal, but I am so, so sick of the brand of empty populism Trump stands for that it looks like that's what I'm gonna be doing come election time.

I know that Canadian have complained about Justin Trudeau over the years, but his recent leadership in regard to Ukraine & Europe has been stellar and undoubtedly his response to Trump is something TO BE ABSOLUTELY PROUD OF! This is not the time to rock the boat globally, as Trump is doing

We did not all vote for that orange clown. I absolutely despise orangina.\nVoted for Harris/Walz!\nWe stand with our Allies—Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, Europe, etc.\n\n#resisttrump\n\n???️‍???

It is shame absolute shame that the new American Adminidtration is doing this to canada and infact many nation. This blind move doesn't help Amerca at all but for sure hurts majority of American leaving the super richs

As a life long Republican IM ASHAMED, ABSOLUTELY ASHAMED OF TRUMP!!!\n Disgusting TROLL!!

We are going to make sure that you can sell the absolute minimum to Canada. We have reliable trade partners, reliable options. You have none. Good luck with Russia. Do you really think Putin will trust you?

Let's make this crystal clear. What can we do? We do not want this. So, what can we do? Absolutely nothing!

I am American and absolutely loathe what trump is doing, and I'm not alone. Canada is doing the right thing here. Canada - please know that most Americans are on your side.

No one wins in a trade war. Absolutely no one

As.an American, Canada I support you. Trump's an absolute idiot

As a Democracy loving American, who’s against our evil man-child dictator Trump, I want to express an apology to the world. Trump is absolutely insane and morally bankrupt. ?

As a Canadian - Trumps 'brilliance' has done one thing for sure, it's aligned all of the provinces against our neighbor and former ally the United States. It's done something we ourselves have had difficulty with - gaining support from Quebec. The overwhelming vast majority of Canadians don't trust the US anymore, as the legal justification for the tariffs is absolute bull, and is a pretext for Trumps actions. My family has cancelled all US travel, in my case 2 trips this year worth 15K to the US. I will miss Vegas for my 60th. We used to shop in WA State weekly; last year I spent 11K in WA State, and routinely took in shows in Seattle. No more. \n\nCan anyone please explain why Trump is screwing over Americans? Seriously.

As a Canadian I am embarrassed, ashamed and fearful! Everything that this idiot spews forth is just pure drama. All President Trump wanted was for Canada to take care of the drug problem that has killed so many. In the 9 years that this government has been in power he has done absolutely NOTHING to stop this catastrophe, in fact he has stood by and watched it get worse….enabling cartels to gain more power with a lax system of slap on the wrist laws. And his immigration department is asleep at the wheel.  \nI pray that some common sense enters the picture soon…

He was absolutely right it’s not about fentanyl it’s just an excuse that Trump wants to use for his dumb ssa supporters

Trump is not smart. He is as dumb as a rock. An absolutely vile individual who will cause chaos and pain for US allies all over the world.

Trudeau is in no position to be calling out Trump...he's an absolute snake

From America: I am embarrassed every day - several times each day - by the absolute buffoon we have as a president. Please know MANY Americans oppose that treasonous idiot. Sorry for all the idiot Americans who fell for that grifter.

Trump is an absolute moron. Always has been, always will be.
