Good Job Trump-Bots. I hope you're happy. That dude came in office increasing unemployment by firing American citizens and making enemies all around the world

PM Trudeau: I am sorry to put you in this position. You have a clear understanding however, that it is only donald trump bringing on these hideous actions, not American citizens. Let’s hope our Congress can muster up the courage, like yours, to get donald gone from the Oval.

I am an American. I hope Canada know all of us did not vote for Trump! I stand with our allies and I stand with Canada!

Trump! What do u hope to gain! Im gonna tell Jesus on uou!

Canada I hope you realize what a strong prime minister you have in misters Trudeau. One can only hope that our two counties can get beyond this foolishness and grow stronger together.

Today as an Australian I am buying Canadian products in my groceries. I don’t see many available (hopefully that can change) but I will start with Maple Syrup

I'm sorry, Canada. On behalf of the apparent minority here in the United States I want to apologize. We aren't all basement dwellers who disrespect our place in the world. We do wish you the best and hope that sense can somehow prevail here.

My highest respect for MP Trudeau and the Canadian people. We in Germany have now had a chancellor for 3 years who could only speak empty phrases.\nI hope that things will now change and that Canada and Europe will form a strong alliance in political, economic and military terms.

Thank you, USA to who ever supports us here in Canada thank you. It’s gonna be a tough go with Trump in office hopefully not for too long.??

Trudeau has always been good in a crisis and for that I’m sorry to see him go. I give a thumbs up for all of parliament for putting differences aside in these last few weeks to fight against trump. I hope we bolster our trade with other countries and never go back to the USA.

I hate rooting against my own country but I hope Canada stands tall and brings the fight to the US. We are inarguably the bad guys in this situation.

From Denmark: We admire all you Canadians and hope the crises here can make us all even more close. We wan't you to be a part of Europe and we already know how great it will be of both all us in Europe and for all of the Canadians. We will stand together even more close.

As an American, it pains me to see Canada show such poise and leadership. We're wasting our lives and future hoping that our government will save us, yet it digs us deeper into ignorance and suffering.

Ukrainian-American, it’s hurts me twice. Not my president, hope Trump fries in hell with Putin

Greath speech from the Ca ada's Prime Minister. A real serious and prepared one,not that gang of idiots now making disasters at WH. Hope my Europe will help Canada, buying their products to fight for liberty against this fat mafia boss. Hope that US citizen will soon learn the lesson throwing this psycopatic president from his throne.

USAs joker government makes money off ruining lives . Hope the kings family sleeps well at night .

trump is a traitor! Hopefully Americans will wake up before it’s too late!

On behalf of the American people, we are so sorry for our fascist dictator, and we hope and pray we can take him out of power ASAP! We are all terrified, disgusted, and shocked. Just trying to figure out WHAT we can possibly do to fight back. Thank you, Canada!

We must stand up for ourselves against the bully like Trump. I hope to see other world leaders to do the same thing like Canadian PM Trudeau. As he points out loud and clear that Trump hurts Americans!!!!

Many of us stand with our strongest friend and neighbor. This is not what the people of the U.S. desire, it is not what we want either. The government that stands against our friends and allies and we are using our voices in hopes someone who is sucking his teat takes a moment to come to common sense. We are not a great nation in this moment and my heart aches for the many impacted from this rediculous moment of arrogance, name calling and isolation from the world

That’s some big talk tough guy! We better hope he doesn’t really get upset and call us more names lol as that’s all he can do, and stop biting the hand that feeds you, as your military would be helpless against us (not that we want that anyway, but yall need to chill)!

I hope Donald falls out of AF1

The US has literally painted itself in a corner. I hope Canada is close to a deal with the EU. Europe is more trustable than America.

An intelligent coherent clear 'truth' based speech - now compare that to Trump. Go Canada {from me in the UK]! I just hope we stand up to the US with the same strength. Not sure our PM has the same backbone unfortunately.

I’m no Trudeau fan, but lowkey I’m happy he’s getting the opportunity to show us some spine & hopefully leave on a higher note (for himself at least!)

Whether you are either a Liberal or Conservative or Independent north or south of the border, I hope you agree that this speech was one of the best heard and said this year.

I am an American and I agree with Canada. This is terrible for everyone and I hope our government will reconsider this terrible idea.

Trump wants a literal war with Canada. He wants his name in history book. That's all it's to him, just like for Putin. Sick evil people.\n\nWhen he's going to blame Canada for the destruction of USA stock market due to his stupid tariff war, he'll pretend that's a good excuse to take the country by force. This is just plain evil. America went in one generation from hopeful and peace loving nation to Putin's best friend. Sickening.\n\nWhat does Trump think his actions are going to do? Most of the world now hates him. Most of the world now hates Elon, and Tesla. He's a destroyer, not a builder.\n\nRepublican party and everyone working in right wing media, you happy now? You happy that Putin is able to take over entire country because of your bigotness and hatred for minorities? You're going to get your FAFO too one day, that's the revolution that will not be fought with words of appeasement or be as miserable failure as Jan 6.

I'm tired of Trump- I'd rather not trade or buy anything from the US. Hope it looks better in 4 years.\nGreetings Denmark

Mr. PM will speech!!\nI hope someone is listening (Not They)))

Pretext? Like attacking Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit? Surely not.\nRemember that only 33% voted for Trump: 67% of voters DID NOT: he does not represent us! Most Americans have honor and loyalty and respect our Constitution, laws, and allies, so I hope that once this very dark page in our history is past, we can again become a sane, democratic and lawful nation.

Why are we only retaliating only 25%, slap stupid Trump with 50% tariffs as he thinks he has all the power in the world. I hope all the world leaders stick together & shut this idiot down!!!

The rational American people are with you. The people who understand how real government works. Not made up lies that get repeated over and over again in hopes that people will fall for it. Hard to believe that half the American people actually fell for the scam that has befallen America. Pray for us.

As a U.S. citizen, I agree with Trudeau. I can only hope the rest of the USA can stop being stupid.

As a US citizen who has considered Trump to be a boorish moron since I was a child in the 1980s, I thank Canada and PM Trudeau for standing strong against our idiot-in-chief and I hope we can repair this unnecessary rift as soon as possible.

I so hope whoever replaces Trudeau will follow his lead in this movement. Trump doesn't want to lead America, he wants to dictate it. And he wants to take over Canada in the process.

Canadá is my favorite neighbor and I hope that this Republican caused ass kissing of Putin gets resolved soon! What our leaders have done to our great neighbors is sickening ! This is all done to make the Rich Richer and to Hell with those in need!\n Not One Republican will speak up! Then the sad,sad thing they did to a country lastly looking for help against Putin!\n They submarines him in a setup, all preset, and this man more of a man Than any Republican will ever be VOLADAMER ZELENSKY HE IS A REAL HERO Trump has to go!

“We are polite, but we will not back down from a fight”! Justin Trudeau!! I hope this line goes viral!

Trump speaks two languages. Dumb and Dumber!\nThank you Canada! Many of us stand with you. Hoping we can remove Trump soon and get back to fair trading with our great neighbors!

I'm so embarrassed to be American. I'm angry at the millions who were dumb enough to vote even one time for a FOOLISH con man who's compromised by Russia and can't even read. I'm extremely proud of Canada and Trudeau. I hope somehow the president of the US and his echo chamber are removed from office. We'll never make it 4 years.

Wishing I could read all 29k+ comments on this vid. Thank you, Trudeau. I hope Felon 47 and his MAGAs hear you.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau. I support Canada from Tennessee. I despise the MAGA/Fascist/Trump movement. Prime Minister Trudeau, please put a 100% tariff on Tesla and anything associated with anything Musk. I hope the EU will cease using Space X and anything else Musk.

God bless the brave people of Canada for standing up to our unstable president and vice president. I am sad for the country I call home. I am still at a loss and feel very unsettled that Donald Trump was elected president. His presidency is marked by retaliation and actions that are ego boosting for him. Yet, many people don’t see it this way ?‍♀️. I am hoping and praying that other countries remember that not everyone is on board with Donald Trump and his party.

I’m a US citizen who is appalled that Trump is our president.\n\nTrump is doing great harm to the US.\n\nTrump’s street-thug bullying tactics are egregiously inappropriate for the office of the President of the United States. \n\nTrump’s endorsement of a murderous Russian dictator does not reflect American values, and does not represent our interests. \n\nTurning against our allies does NOT benefit the US. \n\nTo Canada citizens: I hope you can see from the comments that most US citizens wish to be good neighbors!

As a u.s citzen I'm appalled and ashamed of my president. The elites got what they want but doesn't mean it will last they talk about exposing corruption but yet are doing some pretty corrupt things why do we only get 2 choices for a president and lesser of two evils why don't we pick someone with morals and that have the best interest for our country and people not just the rich cause I've been struggling before during and after trump maybe we need new congress and stop this dumbass blame game of pointing fingers when dems and rep come together we can be unstoppable why are people so stupid and selfish like we have it easier than most country's last I knew we don't eat cats or dogs so that tells me are economy not as bad as other places just seems like the rich are losing and this will help them stay rich. I don't like Biden or trump but my god does no one notice the segregation that's pushing us apart? we were all for Ukraine before and now plp wanna act differently without facts or knowledge kids family's they are dying cause putin is a prime example of a dictator.... praying and hoping we come together to fix this and show our next generation on what not to do.

Keep the tariffs; I hope Canada and Mexico tromp us. (Just realized only one vowel separates tromp from trump and RTump tromps on everyone with whom he comes in contact, except, of course, PUtin.)

As an American, i oppose our crazy president. I hope Trump gets removed from office by legislator and gets impeached fast

well done Canada, hope Europe will do the samme at once. everyone should stand up to bullies

What can we do to stop this? I didn’t vote for the oompa loompa, the magats did. I hope Mexico does the same as Canada. We cannot stop the shame, embarrassment and humiliation that is oompa and his ilk!

I hope Canada will plan to take US refugees. Many democrats/liberals want to defect. Trudeau has a sweet heart. I want that in my leader! Please let us come. Or see if Donald will let the US west coast could be assumed by Canada. \nCalifornia, CA\nI’m willing to freeze for life to get away from this regime, please. Make us an offer, sirs.
