Prime Minister Trudeau, I can safely say I do not support what Trump has done, and definitely did not vote for the orange man. The majority of us Americans are with you... We are sorry. This is just a hot mess, and it is only March...

Working Canadians support Trump. All the loud mouths that take 25 years to pay off their mortgage talking shit about a man thats made it big several times hahaha the same uneducated liberal followers that are agreeing with the prime minister that ruined Canada and helped fund the killing in both Ukraine and Palestine. Pathetic! Clown trying to pin Trumps tarifs that just started today for the mess hes caused..no wonder 80% of Canadians are embarrassed but the comments here show the other 20%

WOW, Prime Minister Trudeau, Canada is very proud of YOU!!!!!!!!!! and that kind of leadership is what we needed in the USA. Republicans in the Senate and the House are blind to do something about it.

I've never been so impressed with Trudeau. Thank you for representing us with strength and heart. Fuckin eh Mr Prime Minister

Prime Minister Trudeau, can you annex America so we can have common sense leadership again. You and Ukrainian Leader Zelensky are true leaders. Trump is hurting our allies and most of all us Americans. Just know i and many other Americans did not vote for Trump, a criminal and womanizer, I as an American stand with Canada. Go Canada,!!!!!

A polite and respectful Prime Minister should not be demonizing Russia's leaders so strongly after all peace is the goal not more division

Lots of idiots making comments in here I see. No knowledge just stupid lefties making stupid comments. This guy destroyed Canada. Worst Prime minister ever! He is the problem

We're all so disgusted and saddened about all of this. You're so right about everything that you're saying about trump; Putin has his puppet in this country and he's making the most of it, by helping trump to become dictator here. Please Canada, do what you have to do, we don't want this either; we're stuck with trump until our congress grows a spine and kicks this ugly, vindictive man out of office! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, you are what is needed in this crisis! I'm glad to be a Canadian, I just wish I was living there, not here. What a total embarrassment to us all that did not vote for trump. (from Sandi Paquet)

Much gratitude to you Prime Minister Trudeau ! Well done, I am proud to be Canadian ❤

Ooooof, he didn’t hold back did he? Good for Canada and good for Prime Minister Trudeua

Canadian here ... we are so very proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ... Canadians coast to coast are 100% united. We are buying Canadian, or if not available here from a trusted partner ... BOYCOT everything from the usa. We can NEVER trust the usa again. What I can't get by is 77+ million of you voted for ALL of this. We are defending our country, americans ask yourselves ... why exactly are you going to be paying more? who benefits? thank you felon president for this

This’s how a prime minister speak we stand with out prime minister and the other ministers we stand together as one for Canada ??

I'll say what Prime Minister Trudeau couldn't say.\n\nThe US President and half of the nation's population are modern day Nazi's. They blame 'outsiders' for their problems. They fund genocide and advocate for ethnic cleansing. They blame their economic woes on other nations and attack erstwhile allies. They threaten to annex other nations.\n\nThese are all things that Adolf Hitler did in Germany. The similarities are remarkable. \n\nCanada is strong and most importantly, united. There's no question that we will get through this.\n\nThe United States is weak and incredibly divided. I fear for the chaos that is to come and for the other half of the population that are not Nazi's. This is what it was like to live in 1930s Germany.

Well said Prime Minister Trudeau.

The only thing I disagree with Prime Minister Trudeau is that the Donald is dumb. Period.

Can this guy please be prime minister of Australia. We stand with you Canada. I dare you to turn off the tap suddenly on the electricity you supply to America and then watch them scramble

What is this idiot Trudeau speak?he has just two days as prime minister?

I can tell y’all dont play chess ♟️ Politics is just like a chess game with more pieces. This guy is about to leave office and when the next prime minister comes watch what happens ? this “trade war” is a bluff to make them do what we want, checker players ? no American nor Canadian will be hurt during this genius move ? look at Mexican president feeling the pressure that they coughed up 29 cartel members and they just got extradited to New York including one that killed a US DEA agent in 1985! With the threat of tariffs the Colombian president changed his mind about picking up his own people that crossed our border illegally instantly. He even sent his own planes ✈️ to get them. Our tariffs is to bring jobs back to America ?? and a major negotiating tool. Ya’ll confused Democrats in the comment section don’t even know what planet ? you standing on.

Mr Prime Minister is not your fault.You are rational one.

F Trudeau man... he isnt even going to be the prime minister in a few days. Little mangina.

10:24 This isn’t anti-Americanism. The prime minister was crystal clear that the issue is with the administration, and more specifically the president.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, for your steadfast leadership in these challenging times. Your clear and decisive response to the unjustified U.S. tariffs demonstrates a commitment to protecting Canadian interests and upholding the integrity of your nation's economy. \n\nIt's reassuring to witness a leader who can speak sense and stand firm against unwarranted actions. \n\nYour dedication to maintaining strong international relationships while addressing internal challenges reflects true statesmanship. Canada is fortunate to have such principled guidance as we navigate these complexities together.​ #IStandWithCanada

I salute to the prime minister of Canada for his speech. Trump is a stupid !

Mr. Prime minister your speech is a masterclass on how to unite canadians from a american who loves canada

Canada, we are sorry. 49 % of our voters lost their mind. Prime Minister of Canada is right, no one wins a trade war. Nor is this war or the trade war with Mexico is justified.

for the first time he looks like a prime minister

Speak your truth Mr. Prime Minister! Let the whole world hear it. Trump is NOT MY PRESIDENT. I have never and will never vote or support him.

Trudeau is an idiot and has destroyed our country. He's no longer Prime Minister. He resigned finally. He knows he's not wanted in this country. He refuses to leave office. Anything he says now is worthless. Anything he's ever said has only done damage to Canada.

Canada, you are blessed in your choice of Prime Minister. Just as we Americans are condemned in our choice of President.

Thank you Mr Prime Minister, we are unified and strong

I am Canadian and I love my country. I love Americans and my American family. What your President is doing is destroying everything he puts his hands on. He just wants to rob everyone of their natural resources and make them pay for the US border. We are not responsible for your side of the border. It's not our job to pay to fix your problems. Yet our Prime Minister is pouring billions of Canadians' tax payers' dollars on this. He needs to stop because nothing will get solved until your president stops what he's doing and starts paying for and fixing the problems within the US. I hope he gets booed off the podium tonight.

First time prime minister is loved???

I always respect and love Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau because he’s a great person!!! I’m so proud of you for what you did for your country!!!

Trump is an ignorant fool. He has no idea how tariffs or anything else works! Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau.

Stop talking over the Prime Minister. I can understand what he is saying. I do not need your analysis. I want to hear him speak.

It is so nice to hear you Mr. Prime Minister how much you care about your people. We don’t have that in United States. Is only him and his people.

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau for leading Canadians to stick together and do what is right.

Prime Minister Trudeau is boldly hitting the nails on the head, and I admire his boldness and honesty as I've always admired Canada and its peoples. Trump is in the back pocket of the Russian dictator. His actions prove it to my satisfaction. Canada has been a staunch friend of the US, a real partner not just for economic benefits for both countries but for a democratic way of life. Canada is a strong democracy whose people are known for their open hearts and minds. I pray that this idiotic trade war started by a man who is subservient to Putin will come to an end. I say to Canadians, let us stick to our common values of democracy, free expression, peaceful borders, and our commitment to the greatest good of the many rather than the greatest good of the few and the Russian dictator.

I wish we had somebody like Prime Minister Trudeau in the US Government instead of what we've had (OK, a couple weren't so bad).

Hats off to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau! This is REAL leadership! All Europe should stand with Canada now! Greetings to Canadian people from Romania! You will get over this!

Thanks Prime minister, for your speech.

Mr Prime minister, you call trump a smart guy. NO, he is an idiot, he is a criminal, a rapist, a person that stole state secrets, he possibly gave some of those secrets to dictator putin.\nA totally stupid idiot, he is in musk and putins pockets.

Amazing speech Prime Minister Trudeau!!!❤

I live in canada, Trudeau is the most hated prime minister in history. \nCNN can pander all they want to this dictator, but know this, Trudeau is a wef puppet and doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself. \n\nThis joke of a speech is just a photo op and acting tough because an election is coming.

Prime Minister Trudeau is a real leader, calm, polite, intelligent and well spoken. Unfortunately, many americans do not see Donnie and vnace as real nor reasonable leaders.\n\nEdit: I truly hope that people like General Clark look really close at the inofrmation that came out that Donnie is actually a russia asset and groomed to have been for decades.

I'm Canadian. I didn't vote for Justin Trudeau, and - to use his phrase - it's not in my habit to agree with him, but this is spot on. Thank you Mr. Prime Minister.

Canada better elect a new Prime Minister because this guy is horrible.

The complete disrespect this man has shown our president by calling him by his first name we are going to keep those tariffs on you until Justin Trudeau is no longer Prime Minister of Canada

Prime Minister Trudeau appears to be a wonderful, self-respecting man, \nBut he does not appear to be a true leader,\nHe seems to have been so focused on expressing his personal swag that he has put the country in danger.

From France, I agree with the prime minister Trudeau. The heart goes with canadians.
