Canada is a leader and raw model of the free world, followed by Mexico, as a former US citizen I’m terrible ashamed for what happened regarding the Tarifs and the shameful behavior in the Oval Office. As a European we support Canada and México,. We will also boycott American products.

I hope Canada will become a beautiful new European Union state. You are welcome, dear Canadians. We would love to buy your crude oil and maple syrup (yum!).

16:50 we know for a fact this is NOT actually about Fentanyl and border security. Trump has literally stated that this is tactic to try and annex us, to decimate our economy so we have no choice but to join America. I just hope that our european allies will actually have our backs.

As a German I believe that the European Union needs to apply his significant power to encounter this madness . Europe should welcome Canada into the Union. Together we are stronger and will successfully counter those tariffs. Let’s start by turning off all those social platforms from the states which are doing more bad than good for years!

As a European, I can say that Europe is next. \nSince the episode with Zelensky, an anti-United States wave has already been noticed

Hey Canada, join us europeans, you are welcomed with open arms. Leave your southern neighbours to Russia. Murrica has gone rogue.

The European would love Canads to join the european Union ? Join the bright side of Power ?

Form Indiana my family and I stand with Canada ?? Ukraine ??, the UK ?? and all European nations!

Simple words, slow speaking and repeating that Trump may understand these words... \nGo Canadians! As a European take and we are with you.

As an American I feel more Canadian, Ukrainian, Western European, Mexican, Panamanian, and last but not least a Greenlander than I do American. FDJT the KGB agent and the Republican party filled with traitors.

As a german and european, this will be rough. We are probably next. Lets stand together in this FUCKED UP times.

Trudeau aided european leaders and Zelinsky to undermind an end too an unwinable war and kill Americans and steal more US money.HE IS A TRAITOR TO THE USA !! The GDP of Texas Is 2.4 trillion..The GDP of Canada the freeloader RAT state Is 2.1 trillion..BURN ! like those churches godless liberal socalist filth...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gLN3QoN-q8

Love you Canada! Please join European Union!

Germany here: Donald,,, how would your Citizen like 100% tariffs on German - European Cars ? Porsche Mercedes Audi BMW Ferrari Lamborghini RR Bentley and so on and so on .... I guess they will love it :D we could give this tariff money to UA and they will recover. DJ Trump thinks he is Batman, but he is just a dumb version of the Joker. America will go back to wild wild west and citizen which im very sorry for will not like this i guess. \nJT is right, this actually is a very dumb thing to do :D hahaha

Well, from a European perspective, Trump is making the US if not an enemy (yet, anyway), surely not an ally or a friend, as you used to be.\nLots of European contracts will be lost - European countries will rely more on each other and Canada, Australia and other countries that we know we can still trust.\nAnd European consumers will move from American products and companies, especially anything Musk related, because people are really bothered and upset here, how easily an erratic madman can take a democratic country into an oppressive, destructive country.\nWe have no issues with the American people, apart from that you voluntarily brought this upon yourselves (and us), although it was screamingly obvious already in 2016.\nAnd you did it twice...

Strong speech of Trudeau! We Europeans feel you and we are totally with Canada. \nHowever, I guess there is no point anymore speaking reasonable arguments to someone who simply lost all resonableness. The ones behind him (voters) are blinded by the lies and false arguments they now believe in. \nUnfortunately this all will cause an unparalel loss of economic growth for everyone, ALSO for the americans themselves. In addition, the world peace balance will badly loose its balance and can end up quite uggly.

By and large Ukrainians, Europeans, Americans, and Canadians want an end to the war against Russia. Canadians want the opiate catastrophe cleaned up, that 1% is only what the authorities are aware of… plus the liberals & new democrats are pumping a large “safe supply” into our communities! We want our boarders tightened up, and our economy properly, honestly, and transparently managed. Sit down Trudeau… you don’t represent the majority of Canadians. The rest are catching up.

Thank god Trudeau.\nWe can no longer trust the US.\nnever would I thought a US president would side with Russia.\nThere's a dictator in Russia and a dickhead in the Whitehouse.\nTrade with Europe.\nI hope Ukraine don't sell out there country to a brother of putihitler.\nEurope need uk to rejoin EU\nEU now need more than ever a European army including Ukraine.\nWell done Trudeau

Not only is Canada united in solidarity against Trump and his trade war, I think that we are seeing right here that Americans, Europeans, and people from every continent, also have a sense of unity and solidarity with us and Mexico and against the bully and dictator who currently is squatting in the White House. \nOrganise. \nMobilise. \nResist.

The expressions of sympathy from Americans are very kind, but if they aren’t followed by any action, they’re completely useless. \n\nShouting for the president’s removal on social media or YouTube doesn’t accomplish much either. \n\nWhat can bring about change is action— contacting your representatives to protest by phone or email. It’s a first step for those who aren’t physically able to join demonstrations, because the power of the people is in the streets. \n\nRight now, there are major protests around the world—in Serbia to fight corruption, in Greece to combat the lack of investment in infrastructure that caused a very serious train accident, and in Georgia to oppose the pro-Russian direction of a government whose people want to join the European Union. If you let what’s happening in your country go on without taking action, you’re complicit.\n\n????????❤️

Great speech!!! Europeans are with you, Canada!!! ??

He said something very very important: protecting companies from predatory takeover.\n\nEurope, are you listening to this? What trump is doing is making way for us companies to buy cheap European companies. We must prevent this.

As a European American, I can truly say that I am embarrassed, shocked and disgusted by the actions of the Trump administration against our allies and partners across the world. 99.9% of American loves Canada and I am one of them!!! Stay strong because we have always overcome evil together!!!

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.

His name is Pres Trump and not Donald asshole. if you join ukraine to insult the us. if you refuse to do what the us wants you to do,the us will deal with you accordingly. save all these speech. if you call it a trade war. so be it.canada has aligned itself with european if americans are stupid enough to think that they were friends under trudeau then you are stupid.

To All Canadian Citizens And European Citizens PLEASE HELP US in The United States Get Rid of The Russian Trump MAGA Party The Free World Is In Danger

Excellent speech! As a Portuguese and European, I will do everything I can to support and help Canada in any way possible!

CANADA, PLEASE JOIN THE EUROPEAN UNION! TOGETHER WE CAN UNITE AGAINST THESE DICTATORS! <3

very good speech from Trudeau, including a middle finger to Trump.\n\nCanada keep up, stay strong, seek other partners. As a european I'd love to work together with Canada.

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

❗️Trump is destroying America, he also aims at destruction of Canada, Mexico, and European countries. Dump the trump, there is no other choice left for Americans.

Cancel the F35 purchase, buy European.

From Europe: Europeans strongly support Canada. Having visited Canada several times, I can fully attest to its natural beauty. The remarkable unity demonstrated by Canadians across the political spectrum in their opposition to the current U.S. administration is really inspiring. We should now be strengthening the Canada-Europe relationship, establishing free and unrestricted trade between our regions.

Ukraine 3 years of USA money and artillery to fight a war that impossible to win with his country flattened his people killed soldiers women and children that European country's have sat back an watched waffing what the USA should do \nIreland own people living on the streets with 100.000 Ukraines taking up housing with able body men here that's suppose to to be soldiers living it up here \nEurope are sitting back prompting him what he needs in guarantees from the USA \nHow many more must die for him , Crazy while he spoofs from country to country for arms and money with billions already wasted \nTrump is correct, to stop funding a war , its peace he wants people need cop on \nFunding more money to maim and kill will not make peace

Been whatever on Trudeau but he's talking some clear words here, our European leaders should follow and also work closer with Canada.\nAlso our politicians should discontinue using X as a platform to communicate with the electorate - it's undemocratic.

Seems like the European Union has a new best friend ?

As a European I think Canada is setting a great example, how other countries should deal with US. Let them soak in their own shit! CANADA: all but praise to this great country!

I am from Europe. And I would like to invite our Canadian friends to the European Union ♥️

The USA is now without friends around the globe: well except for Putin’s Russia. Canadians, Mexicans and Europeans are all united against Trump and his cabal.

Once again an example for the whole world. I wish european leaders would speak like this.

As a european I say we have to increase co-operation with canadians and put stop this insanity. Lets save what can be saved.

As European citizen, is there any EU politician on-line taking notes???. This is how you adress the nation in times of urgency, this is how you adress trouble. It all start with naming the problems, and not endlessly debating how to describe a dictator without offending him. Powerfull speech.

This is the coorect answer from Trudeau! I belive, that the USA will have no president-elections in 3 1/2 years. Trump will rise a dicatorship. He signed the same dicrets who Hitler signed in 1933. Belive me: I'm from Germany. We europeans know of many dictaroships (faschism, comunism). Hope, the US will be democtratic. Before, many european countries will boycott US-products. It will be hard for the USA. Mr. Musk losed 15 Bio. $ with his car-facories in the last weeks in Europe.

Uk citizen totally support Canada hope our prime minister follows suit and calls out Trumps vandalism and the his damage to Uk and European relations with him. Still love the US but not this tinpot Dictator. American friends Dump Trump he is and will keep dumping all over you

Standing with Canada and boycotting American goods. Hoping the ties between Canada and Europe will be strengthened so that we can both do without the increasingly worrying and hostile US. Greetings from one of many Europeans.

Conservatives believe that communist China is the problem. Undocumented Latinos are the problem. Woke Europeans are the problem. Socialist Canadians are the problem. Dear conservatives, you and your president are the actual problem.

From England …. What a true calm detailed and factual speech… a class act that stands above all the rubbish and lies coming out of the White House and the GOP. Republicans have no balls and they should all be impeached for appeasement with Russia… shame on America and up the Canadian European alliance .. long live freedom and democracy

European allys will go with USA and dump you Canada ?

This is the speech that European Leaders should be making instead of the incoherent mumblings we have heard so far.

As a European having lived in both Canada and the United States for prolonged times, my view is this: Canadians are basically the same as Americans but with Health Care. They have a common heritage and history and this is like a brother turning evil and hurting its siblings. Trump is smart? I don't think so, he comes across as a low IQ individual born with privileges, heck he has been bankrupt what is it four times? Right now he thinks he is making America Great again but instead he is on a path to bankrupt even the US Economy. These kind of things in history often have caused actual physical War and he talks about Zelenski is toying with a 3rd world war. Wouldn't it be funny (and not in a comical sense) if in fact Trump causes the 3rd world war with his actions instead?
