Americans people, please don't fall for this scumbag, part time drama teacher's fancy words, he is one made Canada weak and vulnerable with his wako woke policies . So called progressive but admires basic dictatorship

This is the type of speech hard to listen to, the type of speech you need to give to a country about to go war, make no mystake, thats what this is, and this is also the type of speech that shows who is and who is not fit for leadership, Trudeau you made mistakes when you were younger, but who didnt, but you sure matured to be a leader who can make people follow you from youre words alone, im glad we have a president in south america with such caracther on the side of reason and peace, with all the doomlike scenarios i conjure from seeying Trump pulling the USA to side with Russia and only imagine russia joining nazi germany just to get also screwed as soon as russia gets the chance and trump is clueless about it, youre speech eased my mind a bit, thank you and thank you to all the people of Canada

Never been so embarrassed to be American. Thank you for calmly speaking out, using intelligent words and phrasing, stating FACTS, speaking Truth and not spewing any form of hate!!!! Canadians have every right to beam with Pride after this speech!

Bro is speaking words of war. Stop it bro

From a Canadian citizen.\n\nExcellent speech, nice presentation with sugar coating, but the taste?\nHowever Trudeau is not telling the Truth about the Fentanyl of less than one ounce coming through the border?\nHow about Oil, Lumber and other minerals trades?\nThe USA has ten times more than what Canada have.\nWhat about border protection? Canada invested in two helicopters and many drones with thousands of land miles and the same on water to protect?\nThe cartels are much smarter than Trudeau borders policing, because they've already installed thousands of infiltrators throughout Canada to deliver any drug amount to the USA.\nAnd calling the president by his first name?\nTrudeau is taking Canada to another level, lower than we've seen or felt, because he's not a politician and not a businessman.\nFor last.\nThe notion that our lower level of politics still uses the word FIGHT instead of making a DEAL.\n\nAnd their old ways of saying, WE ARE WORKING HARD.\nINSTEAD OF WORKING SMART.\n\nMy opinions.

Thank you to all of you taking the time to send your supportive thoughts and words.\nWe so didn't want our hand to be forced :(\nWe need to unite as North Americans, this is senseless and so divisive. Sad ?

Thank you so much for this clear words to Donald Dump.

All of these words over Maple Syrup

How do we stop the fuhrer?? I truly do not know, and obviously the Republicans can't get their brown noses out of..........So as their spines crumble, and their noses grow longer, THEY will only repeat the fuhrer's tired bigoted words over and over and nauseum. So...what do we DO?

I am completely embarrassed by the vehaviors, words and actions of the man currently calling himself the president of the United States if America.

One thing Trudeau is good at is talking. Eloquent words and well said, unfortunately words will not put food on my table. However, again, that was a very very nice speech.

Americans, action is needed not just words.

Felon 47 is a monster and a traitor. There are no more words to describe this moron and his malevolence. To all our Canadian friends, remember that half of the US hates this disgusting man and rejects everything he stand for.

The only reason Donny is siding with the russians is because putin and his people have something on Donny and Donny Trump doesn't want it to come out because its going to be truly embarassing for Donny, his family and the american people. Mark my words we'll all find out someday.\nReally. They probably have video tape of him

Wow - what a speech.\nNever heard it before in such a manner from a politican.\nI have to say this as a german.\nWish we had in germany someone who speaks clear facts and talks directly to the people.\nAdmiring that he also speaks directly to Trump - in clear words.\nMuch respect to Canada.\nStanding with you ❤️.\n\nHopefully wars will end immediately.\nPeace worldwide.

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for your courageous and truthful words. U.S. citizens know Canada isn't acting against U.S. citizens, but against the U.S. Federal government as well it should. Canadians are lucky to have you in your role. I wish we here in the U.S. had someone of your caliber in the White House.

Will this video be demonetized by Youtube because Trudeau said the fentanyl word?

Justin Trudeau's drug policies in Canada have been a disaster and now he pretends he is concerned about Fentanyl [a member of the class of drugs known as fentanyls, rapid-acting opioid (synthetic opiate) drugs that alleviate pain without causing loss of consciousness (analgesic). Fentanyl depresses central nervous system (CNS) and respiratory function. Exposure to fentanyl may be fatal.] going into the United States. He is a lame-duck Prime Minister on his way out of political life let alone public office as Prime Minister of Canada. His poll numbers were miserable and he was not supported within many in his own cabinet because of his divsisive decisions with Alberta, female MPs and hypocritical and harmful actions and words as well as broken promises to the Canadian Tax payers.

Americans who did not understand the word tariff before the election, will understand it now

Big words sunshine. Trump woill eat you for breakfast.

Close your open door policy and stop letting everyone come to your country. And then they sneak into our country. Go to Vancouver and you will see there is a brown and yellow town I mean how many of them are illegal. On the other hand i understand what you saying. Key words border check point. But how long is the border in Canada thousands of ways for stuff to come through

Wise words. I hope that Friedrich Merz (the designated German Chancellor) and the entire European Union have as much backbone. Because it's our turn next.

Wow a leader not using the word “democrat”, “the left” or “Biden” in a entire speech.

Canada's PM of White Liberal Karen's, does his best to complain about Trump stopping WW3. The word peace was never used once until Trump became Prez in MSM

To our friends around the world we appreciate and love your kind words of support. We also open our doors and wallets to trade! We got lots to offer and keen to welcome new friends and expand our relations beyond the ease of our next door neighbours. We love them but they’ve hopefully temporarily lost their minds. We hope they come to their senses but in the meantime- let’s build some bridges and get back to making the world a better place for everyone! Maple syrup, apples, blueberries, potatoes and rye whiskey for all- let a new era of international prosperity begin!

It's pretty simple and fair, Trumps terrifs are going to equal what you charge us. How is that not fair? Canada is just upset that Trump isn't letting America's tax payers get taken advantage of anymore. Don't let Trudeaus words fool you. He is a dumb, weak and corrupt leader.

“We’ve done ‘big things.’” Wow, PM Trudeau is picking his words so carefully to make sure Donald knows and understands.

As an American, I really liked Trudeau's speech. I thought he did a great job explaining everything and responding to this situation. I appreciate his words to the American people. There's just one thing he said that was inaccurate... trump is NOT a smart guy!!

He is a fuccing leader. That is a man. True words from a man of the people.

Trudeau is a tool. Tough words from a dude and party that won't be around much longer.

I wish europeans would find such strong words. We need to stand up together

Too bad he stepped down. Prime Minister Trudeau speaks and uses clear words. Trump got stuck with first-grade words. Immigration and all this gender craziness is how the demagogs won elections.

DUMB is the one word he hates, keep using it.

I like how he is speeking in easier words with trump :D

Can people start saying the T tariffs instead of American?\nHe does not speak for us. Musk put him in office, and we're trying to raise our voices. Today, he made protests illegal in violation of the 1st Amendment to the Constitution. What he did to Ukraine, there are no words. We need help. We really need the world to step in and stop him. He's insane. Thank you.

Sorry for mistake - - I meant DJT with this sentence: He stumbles along with a very limited vocabulary in his speeches, speeches in which any normal person can hear how little intelligence and substance there is behind these words......

Im a canadian who has spent the last two years hating that man. But god. When shit like this pops up i remember that he is atleast an actual leader. Agreed with every word.\n\nWe will meet you in the economic trenches americans!

Great words from PM Trudeau standing with you Canada ?? across the pond in the UK ?? SLAVA UKRAINE ??

Direct, facts and without shouting or need to repeat nonsense words

Don’t fall for the political actor aka Authoratarian Trudeau’s “pretty words”. Have you forgotten the draconian efforts he and the Canadian government inflicted on Canadian citizens during the Freedom Convoy truckers protest? He and his comrades literally ordered the police to “put down” peaceful protestors and forced Canadian backs to seize supporters bank accounts. Now if that’s not an action out of a 3rd world banana republic dictators playbook I don’t know what is. \n\nDon’t fall for the fake!

Is it just me or the part directed at Trump was a bit... if not dumbed down, then curated? \n\nSimple words and some strategic raise even. :D

Canadian here. My husband and I listen at you here on CNN Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and we couldn't be more proud of you and your team. You say intelligent words right from the start and you deliver a strong message in a very strong manner, beginning with this: the US is declaring economic war on Canada, as well as strong arguments, and that fentanyl is just a pretext, which we all already know, that getting closer to Russia and cutting ties with its allies is Donald Trump's current course of action, and the fair question to ask is why is this man putting himself at the service of the Kremlin which is totally unnatural for an American.?

Those words are too big Donny diaper ?

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced his resignation. What weight do the words of a guys who can't even finish his term as the leader of his country have?? Obviously, a failure and unpopular in his own country. This guy needs to shut up already.

“We stuck to our word”

Four words:\nTrump is so stupid!

This all can be sum up with two words: Donald Trump.

Sorry Justin... even though I enjoyed this speech you're still responsible for ruining our country. Your woke policies and taxes have crippled the majority of Canadians and you have the nerve to say the government has our backs is an absolute joke. I don't believe a word you say and I never will. If Pierre was in office right now Trump would have respect for us Canadians. Trump despises JT and so do 80% of Canadians.

Trudeau is wasting his words and time. U can't reason with a felon and a rapist.

What a big difference between the speaches of DJT , Trump is trying to get Americans to believe that he is the savior of the USA. Justin Trueau is an intelligent and serious leader of Canada - compliment! \nHe stumbles along with a very limited vocabulary in his speeches, speeches in which any normal person can hear how little intelligence and substance there is behind these words. \nNow he is blackmailing the victim of the Russian war instead of the perpetrator, just as he is sacrificing everything the free world stands for for his confused fantasies. \nHe is now even demanding a third term in office, although in the first few days he has already brought more harm to the people than any president before him. \nThis is the direct path to a dictatorship in the Putin model.
