I like he used the word dumb, maybe trump can understand that. US president is not so big in using deep words

With Trump it feels like he's trying to destroy us on purpose

That’s the question “WHAT IS THIS REALLY ABOUT” there is something very wrong going on here! This current ?leading our country straight into hell has reasons far beyond fent! Like Prime Minister Trudeau said “that’s his excuse” esp. with Canada as we have known & for anyone who hasn’t known,they do now. Canada is not our biggest concern of Fent getting into our country! Trump wants to look like a hero to his sheep but he is only a puppet being played by Putin!What is it that Putin has that either is on Trump or what Trump wants! Keywords “what Trump wants” bc none of us want this! He is weakening our country almost daily & getting closer to Russia?! Russians don’t even trust Putin,let alone any Americans, esp leaders! Putin would destroy his own for power & yet Trump thinks he’s some “good trustworthy guy” we are headed into a very very dark time! The faster we get him out the faster we can repair the damage done! Idk how anyone supports this ?any longer\nAs an American I stand with Canada ?? Ukraine ?? Mexico ?? Europe! Ppl get ur passports ready! I’m ready to leave & come back in 4yrs!

It is so clear that the great nation of Canada beats with a logic based on free enterprise, mutual benefit and at its heart welfare of its citizens, The U,S, like all great empires is dying, come join us in Europe, together we are the real vangaurds of a free world, some fantastic world beating business's, and the biggest market in the world. A bridge is waiting, come walk it.

After a speech like this, discourse and solutions are supposed to follow. It's how we work with peers in school, it's how business allies work.\n\nInstead, Trump may see this as a harsh message and fire up the heat to turn this into a spectacle-- arguments, ego, threats. And then the actions will be reactions and attacks instead of solutions. i think the issue lies in that my statements-- no matter if you're Red or Blue, ring factually correct to Trump\ns behavior. he's not here to save citizens or solve issues. He is here for us to watch his reality TV show-- but it's also our own reality!! \n\nHOW IS THE US AND CANADA IN A TRADE WAR RIGHT NOW IN 2025!? I don't understand!!!

Trudeau became a raly good politician.. confident. I like him, wish more were like that. Cheers to Canada from EU. Who would think US will side with Russia

Why isn’t the US dollar sinking like a stone boat

It makes perfect sense because Donald Trump is a Nazi and a Nazi supporter that will turn the US into an axis power. As if our reputation wasn't bad enough now America will be the most hated country in the world and it's all thanks to Republicans and Maga Republicans who should now ALL consider themselves traitors to the flag. If you support Donald Trump you are a coward, a xenophobic sycophant, a bigot, a white supremacist, and as i stated earlier, a traitor. Treason is punished by death in some lands. The American people won't allow this dictator for long. Even if it causes a Civil War within our own country. Trump will not last a full 4 years in the Nazi House. The people will end up getting tired of it, and then Maga will know what it's like to fear for their lives. Its going to unfold terribly for our country and I hope all of our allies will forgive us after the Trump Nazi Regime is removed.

Heavy hearts here today in Canada??????. Life doesn’t have to be so hard. This is a dark day for us. We really like our neighbors the USA. \nLooking forward to the day we are joined with our fellow neighbors again in fair trade!\nWe will visit you when things are better but not until then.

I’m Canadian. My family have always been Liberals but I’m not much of a Trudeau fan myself. For today, it doesn’t matter whether you like the man or not, Trudeau deserves a standing ovation for his speech and the actions he is taking. That’s what a leader of a country should sound like and react like. It’s going to be a tough road ahead for us but together we will pull through this. Stay strong my fellow Canadians, we got this. ❤

Bro he is not doing anything to me but is speaking up for our tax dollars and bad deals where your country is profiting off of me and others alike. trudeau and zalenski get in front of the cameras and start gas lighting with word salad filled with stats. From the things you should be doing to what your are doing against us it seems like you think you are doing us favors not partnering with me and my country. Keep it 100 %

I don’t stand with anyone except the UNITED STATES Of AMERICA! But I want to make something very clear. We just went through 4 years of absolute hell with The Biden administration!! No way around it. And the democrats will do anything to make trump look bad no matter if it hurts our country or not. They simply hate the fact that the checks and the cross dressing and what ever nasty crap they spent our money on . They won’t talk about that! But what I want to know is why we aren’t saying ok Canada we spend trillions militarily protecting you. And the won’t even come up to the 2% on defense they lied about participating in. Why should we pay for everything then they want to tax us?? Should America not get something for protection of a country?? Why do we need to pay there bills? Why should we pay for a war we’re not in? Ukrainian war Americans pay?? No! Canada dosent defend themselves Americans pay?? Then when we tax them like they tax us they want to slap a gift horse in the mouth??

What a crock of shit. We pay 10\ntimes the tariffs on exports to Canada as they have paid the US. Now it’s an equal playing field and he’s whining and lying like he always does.

Love this look and confidence from Justin Trudeau ! I am sad to see you leave your title of Prime minister. We could use alot of good speech like the ones you are giving us lately. Speeches that makes us proud to be Canadians . Love and support from Montreal xox.

Trump’s tariffs are hurting everyone!! Utterly ridiculous! We need our allies and friends just like they need us. These tariffs are jeopardizing our freedom or economy and our security!!!

WEF Puppet and tin pot dictator. I hope his people remember what he did to the truckers. \n\nTrump is putting his country first just like our wet behind the ears prime minister Two-Tier-Kier should be doing instead of spaffing our tax money up the wall. All of you who sat in London are a disgrace. You think you can wage war with Russia risk putting us into world war 3 and win, but I suggest, no longer are your screws just loose, but they have fallen out completely. The lunatics truly have taken over the asylum as they deliberately seek the great reset regardless of the cost of millions of lives. ?

Oh is this what a sane, rational leader looks like? Cool, cool, cool. It's been a while for us here in the USA :(

If yall like this shrimp then move to Canada. Theyve been sucking us dry for more than 20 years. Remember George Washington, or isolationism? These aren’t old concepts.

Trudeau sucks! Canada sucks! They're like a pesticide to America that has fed of us!!

Why can’t we have a real leader like this! Instead we have a belligerent egomaniac Russian asset as president. He shouldn’t have even had 10% of the vote. Y’al knew better but didn’t vote better because of many superficial reasons, among them, sexism and racism. Now all of us Americans are losing. I’d love to see the day when we as Americans can come together as ONE & stand up against people like Trump that are harming all Americans. United we stand. Divided, ALL of us fall. Some of y’al thought it wouldn’t impact you even if his policies impacted others (and not you) so you didn’t care and voted for public enemy #1 despite all the warnings given. Now here we are. I really truly hope that America has a whole will look at ourselves in the mirror at what we’ve allowed to be, and change our ways by coming together as one country that wants to see Americans do well and be good and be able to take care of their families, regardless of race or sex, or gender, immigration status or any of the superficial barriers.

A group of friends went to Canada for a trip and one of us in the group had a DUI 10 years ago and won’t let us in. Like he’s some sort of gang member. Fuck you Canada!

Hello from Texas? Thank you Canada for standing up to Trump and not being a coward like the representatives in US Congress!

As a US citizen living in Australia I’m proud of you Canada. I spent a lot of time in Canada ?? beautiful people and a beautiful place. You don’t deserve to be treated like this.

Canada join with us in europe we like you ?? ??

A 21st century superpower being run into the ground on the backs of ignorant hicks and religious zealots. This is f’ing madness man. Our (US) government has been taken over by extremists. This isn’t hyperbole or the usual insults, like surely there’s a way to stop this. China and Russia aren’t coming to our aid if we go to war with our best friends and allies.

US & Russia. Why? Plain and simple, Trump is infatuated with power. He is a criminal. He wants to remain in power as long as possible. He will write into legislation that a president can remain in power longer than 2 terms. Just like Vladimir did. It’s plain and simple. Trumps main goal is dictatorship. Not the people of America. For his own glory

How this makes sense?! If I buy US products in Canada, I am charged 25%… and always being like that.

This is what a leader, a real leader…intelligent and savvy…looks like. When Trump looks into the mirror, this is not what is reflected back. The reflection looks like a four year old child, crying because Daddy doesn’t love him. It’s sad but we will be paying dearly for a child’s temper tantrum and very disturbing behaviors. Wake up United States, Congress, Republicans and Democrats, the entire News Media, and uninformed voters. This country, our country is at risk of going the way of all fallen dynasties…into oblivion. God help us all. Sorry dear Canada, so sorry.

Trudeau act and talk like a president that US need.

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

You dont scare us you idiot do what you gotta do you are like Ukraine want our money and protection for nothing thats over with its gonna hurt you alot worse than us do what you got to do you fool we don't need Canada

I just moved from my California home state for the second, but just to let you know Canada i'm with you!! This trade war with these countries, are ridiculous but only to line, and continue to line the pockets of billionaires like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and the tech family..... Trump has tried to stay close to Putin, but no one asks why?? We're not at war with Russia? He's been wanting the wealth Putn has every since he, and his wife visited in 1983.. He loves their minerals, and i ask President Zenlensky, if he signs that mineral agreement be careful how it's worded!!! J D Vance had know right to speak to Zelensky in that manner!! Trump, needed an education in government before he ran for any office, it's laws, etc... he's embarrassing when he speaks, calling other government officers stupid, and the like, like a child in school!! Why doesn't someone fact check Donald Trump vs Joe Biden with the things he's done vs the things Donald did while in office, as Biden knowing the law vs Trump as what he could do as a US President, not running this country like he runs his business!! I'm Georgia now, and still wouldn't voted for that man....!!!

Fantanyl is the issue? Sounds like they got a lot of junkies in the US... Should be addressed... ?

As an american....yes. Go after man baby trumpikov and JD blanche. Is this is boosting the liberals poll numbers. Democrats in the US could take note of what having a spine looks like.

Tit for tat. If you want to get rid of tariffs let's get rid of tariffs on your side and that's all of your tariffs that you have implemented on our products for years. Bridges leveling the playing field. So it's okay for you to impose tariffs on others but not for us to impose tariffs just like you do to us

Educated Canadians would think the issue is your drug usage and all the junkies in the US... Maybe address that problem... Guns don't kill people... Drugs don't either until they are ingested... Sounds like the US has a huge Crackhead problem...

Trudeau the governor of Canada. Don’t be a cry baby, join USA and enjoy benefits like other US states.

Ok Trudeau, if Canada is implementing a tariff as well does that mean Canadian will also stop paying taxes like Trump is doing in the US?

Sounds like he's threatening us

This is a good man. I wish we had someone in the White House who looked and sounded like him. TRUMP IS RUINING US AND STILL NI ONE IS DOING ANYTHING. What is wrong with the DEMOCRATS. GET MOVING GET TRUMP OUT OF THE POSITION HE’S IN BEFORE WE ARE ALL FORCED TO BOW DOWN TO PUTIN BECAUSE THAT’S WHERE THIS IS GOING.

Canadians are racist. They don't like Black Americans. Trudeau is a goofy like the rest of the Canadians, especially Drake. ? They not like us. ?

i wonder if trashump supporters'd still side with him and call canada's prm a liar too??\n\nimagine if US has a proper leader like CA's

Yo Mexican from Mexico , why you treat us like traitors\n\nI thouht we were homies

There's a trade deficit with Canada.....if you actually think US will be worse in the long run compared to Canada, you would not go on TV like this Trudeau. You would just tariff

Respect for Canada from the USA. We don’t agree with this madness that’s been unleashed. We could use a leader like Trudeau in the USA! May God help us all.

Putin is like the abusive boyfriend that's trying to isolate his girlfriend (U.S.) from her family and friends (Canada and our allies) so that he can beat us freely without anyone interfering.

I'm so embarrassed and ANGRY at Orange Hitler's stupid actions against Canada, Mexico, NATO & Ukraine.\n\nCanada, we love you and will always be grateful for you & your dependable assistance (like during Iran's takeover of US Embassy depicted in movie Argo).\n\nTHANK YOU FOR STANDING UP TO THIS BULLY TYRANT.\n\nTo my fellow Americans: Now is not the time to argue about who voted for Trump & who didn't. NOW IS THE TIME TO VOTE OUT ALL POLITICIANS WHO HAVE NO SPINE TO TELL TRUMP NO.\nVOTE. THEM. OUT.

Yeah, what he wants is that Canada becomes the 51 state of and then once it becomes the 51 state Canada no longer will be making decision in anything and then everything that the Canada has worked or owns will be his for his own purpose haha. What does he thinks that Canada are bunch of idiots? well lets see. they will be like Puerto Rico with no right to do anything and like he told the Governor of the state of maine, you better comply or you get nothing from us because I am the federal government haha.

How much have you increased inspecting foreign cargo to check for illegal substances?\nThere are still migrants flying into Canada and walking across the border being picked up by the bus load transporting them to sanctuary cities like New York. What are you doing to prevent migrants use your country as a stopping point to walk into the US?\nYou need to do more. Look what Mexico has done.

As a stressed out American over this dumpster fire, I wish we had someone like Trudeau leading us
