united states needs to learn to depend on their selfs. just like back in the old days. not ask for anything from anyone else. do we really need it that bad come on now. do we. thats the question. He So Vein worried how about the people who are backed up from gaza or other foreign places who got a pass to get into canada. but just put them on hold. some have starve to death waiting. just saying.

This guy clearly knows nothing about the way respect works, we have to show respect to Putin for him to even want to negotiate. If anyone thinks that Ukraine which is 20 times smaller than Russia has any chance of winning this war, consider yourself a lunatic

MR. PRESIDENT TRADEAU, trump IS NOT ANYONE'S FRIEND!\nTrump IS A DAMN TRAITOR, Putin's little orange lap pig pet and under no circumstances should he EVER be trusted!

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

As a Canadian, I have heard Justin stumble over his words, give passive aggressive but important statements, I have never heard him call anything or anyone stupid in a direct way though ? he is PISSED

Pres Trump is very ruthless. He doesnt care about anyone at all. He sees weakness and take advantage and make good deals out of it. Ukraine is a clear example. After Ukraine he will make a good deal with Russia as they also have weaknesses... Trump is not interested in wars as that brings a huge cost ...

Does anyone think like I do? Trump wants to show his boss Putin that he can increase his empire by causing hardship to Canadians such that they will beg to join as a 51st state. Fentanoly is just an excuse to claim victimization.

Does anyone care what Castro's bastard has to say.... He's not even the p.m. anymore.... He's just biding his time sitting on the sidelines... And these are and I have to say this clearly RECIPROCAL TARIFFS

American here. I can't tell you how much I miss having a president that speaks like Trudeau. Instead we have a bunch of 4 year tantrum throwing toddlers. And for anyone that has been in a room full of 4 year tantrum throwers all day you know that is completely exhausting, life draining and all you want to do set them in time-out.

Is Trump dumb? Well, I suppose the outwardly obvious actions of dismantling America in front of everyone's eyes is so dumb that people can't believe their eyes. But, damn! Is America so dumb that it's just going to watch? It's such a silly play that anyone watching would walk out of the first act.

You bastards have DONE NOTHING about fentanyl coming into Canada. Why? Because your all in the pockets of the Chinese who are flooding it all into Canada at will. Take a look at every Canadian city! Does it look to anyone with half a brain that they are stopping fentanyl from coming in? There's walking dead everywhere. This country is devastated by fentanyl.

Cmon man, Trump is a russian asset, its obvious. Anyone can see it

I’m BEGGING someone anyone in the intelligence community to find what blackmail material Putin has on Trump! Leak it!

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

Has anyone noticed how all the fake paid profiles are working overtime? On YouTube, Facebook, Yahoo, TikTok.....Get ready, the real war is coming soon. Make sure you pick the right side.

Why are we doing this to our next door neighbors? How does anyone benefit from this? This is a very distressing turn of events and whoever is advising DT needs to be fired. I also wonder if all this theater and bluster coming from the WH is to distract us from other things? What is it that they don't want us to think about?

Bro, if you get Canada to be mad at you, the best neighbours anyone could ever ask for, you know you've fukked up.\nAlso, Canada come join us the European Union, we're waiting for you with open arms, we're true to our word unlike that Russian puppet in the White House.

Hate to be that guy, but Canada needs to up their military and send more troops to the border. They are way under the 2% years after the agreement and they don't have enough people on the boarder to catch anyone to know how much drugs or terrorists are coming through their border. They're preying on your lack of knowledge

The people who killed Eric, my loved one who was murdered in the World Trade center, came in through Canada; not that I'm upset blut it. I just wish they never could've lied their way through to kill someone they never knew, whio WASN'T greedy OR evil but died for it anyway while we watched it happen. Does anyone know what that feels like? I felt like I was standing in the 9th circle of Dante's hell.\nJust like I feel right now. Being punished for something I DIDN'T do again. Punish HIM. He's the one doing it.\nMary Trump has never called him smart. She's his niece.

I see all these other comments saying how polite and eloquent he is compared to Trump, but you can seem polite and screw people over at the same time. I'm just confused on the admiration for Trudeau in the comments, because I haven't heard anything good about him or what he's got going on. Idk, just take the tariff hit and keep moving if Canada's got everything under control. \n\nI'm open to both sides if anyone has any input. What makes the tariffs so bad, doesn't Canada have tariffs on the US?

How could anyone trust Donald Trump all you need is common sense!!! But when he says what most people think they will vote for him.. smh well I’m gunna sit back and watch this one play out..

I wish us Americans could actually think intelligently, but we are stupid for electing trump and think that that clown has all he answers when all he does is destroy everything he touches. He does not care about anyone and should be removed from office. To the world, I am sorry our country cannot treat our friends correctly with respect and dignity . We elect stupid people. We have no excuse and do not deserve friends we have to the world.

I am a proud South African ??. I stand with and support the brave people of Canada as well as the honest and sensible citizens of the U.S.A who look at the facts and see that the actions of Donald Trump are nothing but childish antics that hurt Americans more than anyone else.

america is the greatest comedy of our time lol. idk how anyone can take anything coming out of that country seriously anymore lol

I was planning to go to a U.S. National Park, but I guess I will go to Canada and visit theirs while also giving them my money. I love our national parks, but waiting in line to get in or going to one to find it littered because we can't be proud enough to pay for care of our parks? So pathetic. And that's not just our president, but anyone who is celebrating cutting these jobs. Those people probably just sit in their attics drinking Dr. Pepper while playing WoW all day.

Trumps not fooling anyone about his revenge ..thats all it is to him revenge !! ??????????????

Isn’t that the former president of the 51st state? I thought they got rid of him, maybe that’s why he wants to act so tough. Not fooling anyone though we know a Girl Scout when we see them. Canadians should really take away his toys before big brother comes and takes your whole room and everything in it.

American prices will rise across the board, farms will fail, factories will shut down, unemployment will climb and the US being a weak society will sit there and take it while the billionaires and corporations pulling the strings plunder the treasury and steal all the tax money. Sure Canada will take a hit but at the end of the day we will come out of this stronger and with the respect and backing of the world and America will be weaker and viewed as too untrustworthy and undependable for anyone to want to do business with.??

Does anyone still watch cnn???

This speech was delivered not by a politician, but by a statesman! Compare this speech to anyone the orange orangutan made! It's night and day, people! I stand by Canada 100%. Greetings from Hungary!

Can anyone imagine Trump delivering a speech like Trudeau?…….me neither.

Thank you Trump and your idiocratic and senseless tariffs because you have untied Canadians in a way that have not been seen in a while. Im so happy we're sticking to our plans and not be bullied. The whole fentanyl issue is an excuse. He doesnt give a sh*t about anyone but his billionare cronies. His incredibly pathetic. I echo our Prime Minister's sentiment and sorry America, we were forced to do so. And we know this is NOT ALL of America. God bless us

O bs. Does anyone actually believe Trudeau anymore? Canada already have tariffs on US goods. Clearly they have not done enough yet on dropping these, plus fentanyl and immigration, so Trump is driving the point home.\nImposing counter-tariffs is like a monty python joke.

anyone that doesnt think shit gets worse before it gets better is delusional. weve kicked the can down the road for decades and now were at a breaking point. Tarrifs are mad toi bring companies back to america making our country more self sufficient and not so reliant on everyone else which will strenghten us. TSMC has already made a deal to start manufacturing chips here which control everything we know and china could stop that at any moment. Honda is coming here as well. All in all almost one trillion has been committed to invest in the us and this is a huge win for the long run. Alot of these countries have had tarriffs on us for ages and the people speaking out against it is because its hurting their pockets. The long run this is mandatory and we should have never let manufacturing go in the first place.

I agree with our Canadian friends & neighbor.....100% doesn't make sense.....I say fight fight fight Canada......we would do the same thing if our borders were threatened by any means from anyone. The majority of Americans stand with you in solidarity.

Russia has always had Trump as a puppet, and he is doing exactly what Putin wants. Can anyone explain this in a way that makes sense? Canada?? Putin wants to destroy democracy, and what better way than through an Orange Turd? Americans you did this, so only you can undo this.

Shocker.... communist news network sides with anyone but president Trump and America first .... pathetic

The rural parts of America, where people wear military style clothing, work out so much they have oversized body muscles, and style their head and facial hair so crazily, driving heavy duty trucks with anti -American government bumper stickers, they are the right wing domestic terrorists. In those mountainous rural counties you will come across poor grade roads with gates and chains at the entrance to hundreds of fortress compounds. The women are way too thin, often with frightened, glazed looks in their eyes. Both the men and women will give anyone a way too long piercing stare. They live too far away from any place to work so many of the carefully obscured building complexes, often jammed against sheer tall walls of rocks, have to be making something inside!

Trumps not fooling anyone about his revenge ..thats all it is to him revenge !! ??????????????

Anyone else on board to have Canada be forbidden for trade with America?

anyone figure out yet that Russia would love for the EU to approach them along with Ukraine with a truce proposal without US involved so that Trump looks like a problem... and separates us from our long term allies looking like people you cant trust. \n \nthe great deal maker is being played by putin. \n \nhe has divided the alliance, and now has singled out USA as outside the circle. This president is driving us into the dirt.

I don’t approve of the Tariffs on Canada or Mexico etc, no offense to anyone

DT? The American president who wants to be remembered as a “peacemaker”? And he starts a NEW WAR? Not with one country but with two and God knows with who else will he go after. Power and Money hungry fool. \nAmericans when are they going to wake up. D Trmp is NOT God. Constantly claims in every tv moment he REPEATS his prerogative that “no war would have started if he was in power 4 years ago” and he tries to get two wars stop with an special ‘noble peace’ title interest. Make it clear. Trmp is NOT God. And he is not smart as he claim he is. He uses fear to get anyone fear him. Millions around the world have no respect for this man. I don’t think God is actually happy with this man. He is getting old just like Biden and soon his cognitive will decline too. He is already crunching bending forward and can verily hold his head straight up and the bulge in his back shows he is tired. Will see him soon sleeping in front of cameras.

Anyone watching this has a brain made of sandpaper. Including me. What drivel.

Florida born, America in my veins.\nI stand with Canada and anyone who speaks truth to the vile shit our government is doing.

That same man is the reason why they have these tariffs now!!!!! Anyone that doesn’t see that is a fool!!! Get rid of him and your lives will go back to the normal!! I can’t believe ain’t no one said it yet!! But I will!!! Get rid of him, before he makes it even harder for them!!! Smdh

Trudeau is not a friend to anyone!!

Embarrassing! Anyone regret voting for Trump and Vance, aka Dumb and Dumber? They're pro-Russia and will destroy America.

Canadian currency hit the lowest value a couple weeks ago. Trudeau can’t talk about anyone.

I am an American and I did NOT vote for that orange blob and these really dumbass tariffs. I voted for the smart, black woman!!! I do NOT want to hear ANYONE who voted for that orange dunce complain about the high prices!!
