Wish Trudeau was our president. Handsome and intelligent, the opposite of the orange turd in the White House.

Donald being intelligent ???Trudeau is really funny. ???

Trump IS dumb. He's not smart, can barely read. Makes them draw pictures to explain intelligence briefings.

Will the rest of the free world have to turn their backs on America before the cult followers of Trump to wake up and face the truth that their orange god is a disgrace and makes a rock seem intelligent?

It makes sense when the American President is a Russian intelligent asset with his own code name.

Prime Minister Trudeau is so eloquent and intelligent unlike our leaders here in the U.S. It’s a very sad ? and uncertain time NOW in the U.S. May God help and bless my family ❤❤❤??? and my country.

Vastly more intelligent than Trump

New Zealand, Australia, Canada and Europe must cease to share any intelligence with the US, otherwise it will be leaked to Russia.

now when trump tries to speak tonight you will see how a diaper wearing low i q toddler sounds like compared to an educated well spoken intelligent leader like Justin.

Trump is acting perfectly logical... if you appreciate he is compromised by Russian intelligence, his Russian handlers know how to manipulate him, and he is really a very stupid man. That and senior cadet Kransov has earned new shiny medal

It’s so comforting to listen to an intelligent man speak ?

A true leader-great leadership qualities, plus articulate & intelligent

I am a military veteran from midwestern United States and a former intelligence analyst from the end of the cold war... we are friends with Russia now? F*ck you Trump and f*ck you Putin! God bless Canada, Mexico, Europe, and especially Ukraine! I hope to see my true friends resume good relations with us when this f'n cartoon of a president is out of office.

I hope Canada's retaliatory tariffs target products from Trump states. Also, listening to Trudeau reminds me how much I miss having an intelligent, articulate POTUS. Four years of The Orange Retard, then four years of Geriatric Genocide Joe, and now four more years of The Orange Retard. Why is it too much to ask that We Americans have an articulate, educated leader who's undiminished by senescence (bonus points for speaking French!)

The United States Army does not have the bones to fight in Ukraine, nor the intelligence to stop fentanyl traffickers. What are they for?

All intelligent Americans know this is our president's fault. We stand with you Canada. Do what you have to do.

I am a U.S. citizen, almost 66 years old. For the second time in my life, I am **ashamed** of my President. Trump is causing damage that will take literally DECADES to repair. Yet again, another country's leader shows his sound, prudent, measured, intelligent and **honorable** character - in such stark contrast to ours.

This man Trudeau is such a brillant intelligent orateur??

The US intelligence agency stands with Canada

Wow, a leader that can speak intelligently.... I'm jealous!

Trump cannot be satisfied, the die is cast, resist, oppose, and donnot share intelligence with the traitor an chief

Even as an American, I am proud to think one American in particular watched Connor score his Overtime goal, only to realize he had lost his first stand off with Canada in such a public, humiliating way! Now to see the man his wife made the moves on address both nations with more toughness and intelligence than he ever showed has got to hurt him real bad! Well done Canada! All the love from your American fan and supporter! ??❤️??

An intelligent leader who can give a great coherent speech. I wish we had someone like that here in America

Trump is a criminal and the world's biggest traitor on record. He is not the brains behind it though. It is the rich right wingers like Musk and Putin. The US dies not get shared intelligence anymore because Trump is probably passing info to Putin. He is just a kao dog who would prefer to play golf and get told what to do. Stand firm Canada. The EU is with you and will help in any way it can. I feel the majority of the US is also on your side, and I do not see Trump finishing his term in Washington. I think the people are protesting a lot now, and it is rising!

The (intelligent) American people understand

An ex-KGB chief: “In 1987 I worked in… the KGB of the USSR in Moscow… our department recruited the 40 year-old businessman from the USA, Donald Trump, nicknamed “Krasnov”. That’s when Trump starts buying full-page ads attacking NATO. “Putin is doing a great job of outsmarting our country.” He says. Steele report: Russian operatives gathered damaging video evidence of perverted sex acts of presidential candidate in 2013, for blackmail. Mueller said “There were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election.” Trump campaign had more than 140 contacts with Russian operatives, and Trump attempted to obstruct justice at least ten times. Campaign chair lied about then finally admitted to sharing info with Russian spy. Trump, ignoring US intelligence said: “…Putin, he just said it wasn’t Russia. I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be.” Secret meeting in Trump Tower with Russkies. Jared attempts to set up secret back channel to Russia in the Russian embassy. Trump to NATO member on prospect of Russian attack on their country “In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.” Trump: “If Putin likes Donald Trump… That’s called an asset…” Yeah, a Russian asset. FBI chief Kash Patel was paid $25,000 to appear in anti-FBI video by Russian backers. “The love in the air, I’ve never seen anything like it” Trump said of January 6 rioters, some of them cop-killers… “Russia if you’re listening…” “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily…” Yes, they own a seditious, treasonous felonious American president. All allegedly…

Okay, so on the one hand, so glad Trudeau retired. But on the other, it's so nice having a strong confident person at the podium that actually speaks with integrity and intelligence.

You know what even a sadder thing is... Trump could not even give a speech like this, he does not have the ability to speak with even a semblance of intelligence without his full attention on a teleprompter. So, if you look at it all from this perspective it makes sense.. A complete ignorant baffoon and his circus clowns are in control of the United States government.

I like how all the PMs feel the need to compliment Trumps “smarts” and how often Trump calls other people “not smart” or “low IQ”. He must be very insecure about his intelligence, I wonder if he was bullied at school for being a dum dum.

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

And listen to how eloquently and unemotionally PM Trudeau speaks. He makes sense, he is intelligent, he speaks the truth - no lies, no stupid exaggerations - wow, as an American I miss that.

Now that's a leader! Canada hold strong. Don't bend to that orange moron. I know Canada won't be threatened. Trump thinks if you're decent and polite, you're weak. He will soon find out that he is very mistaken. Pathetic little bullies are historically weak. Your government does not want this but will not be pushed around. Trump is doing this to his own people. Hold tight and let the intelligent Americans rise up. Ireland stands with Canada.

Like him or not, Trudeau is just and right. Trump seem like a spoiled 6th grader. The whole world (minus dictators) sees Canada as strong and intelligent. Trump is weak.

Do not share intelligence with the FSB annex.

Thats what a smart and intelligent leader sounds like. Too bad we have geriatric mental patient for a president.

Must be nice to have a leader that presents facts and speaks intelligently.

I'm glad there is still a trustworthy and intelligent voice of reason on the North American continent to counter the %#$@ that comes out of Donald Trump.

Well spoken, intelligent, and didn't dance to YMCA.

Can Trump not be as eloquent and speak as intelligently as Mr Trudeau?

Comparing pm Trudeau and trumps speech today. \nOne was an intelligent adult working to better his country!\nThe other is an elderly toddler suffering from a narcissistic personality disorder, who only cares about himself.

An eloquent and intelligent leader. A hero.\nA breath of fresh air in this temporary flood of nonsense.\nThank you Prime Minister Trudeau.

What a speech! How do we get someone intelligent like this in office instead of a blathering orange idiot? My heart goes out for Ukraine and all the countries caught up in this mess. For the first time, I can say with absolute certainty that I am embarrassed to be an American

It feels weird to hear a coherent president speak clearly and intelligently.

If only our president was this articulate and intelligent.

'...but Donald, they point out that even though you’re a very smart guy...' No one with any intelligence thinks Trump is smart, that's why he's never allowed his college results to be released. Don't give in to him Canada, Mexico, Ukraine.

Justin Trudeau lied through his teeth when he said the Trump is a very smart guy.\nI've seen absolutely no evidence of any intelligence in Donald Trump.

Intelligent and professional. The only fact we should be checking is if Trump is a smart man, because I’ve seen no evidence of that.

Wow, an intelligent, thought out speech that you can understand. No name-calling, no hyperbole, no making it about himself. It's like Canada has a grown-up for a president.

What a contrast with Trump! Honesty, decency, and genuine intelligence versus treacherous lies and gutless brutality

Trudeau is rational and intelligent. Both are qualities that confuse and scare our wannabe dictator.
