If Canada didn't have tariffs on American goods, Trump wouldn't have placed any reciprocal tariffs on Canada. This is retaliatory If Canada really wanted to have this partnership that they speak about. Why not just remove tariffs on American goods? America's economy doesn't depend on Canada. But The same can't be said for Canada. Good luck biting the hand that feeds you.

Mr. Trump you don’t run a country like your business. Like Canada PM said it’s a dumb thing to do.

I know trump said he had nothing to do with Projekt 25. But the longer he sits the more points from it go into his politicts... It makes you wonder

VERY WELL SAID, PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU!!!!!!! As an American, I AM PROUD OF YOU AND THE CANADIAN PEOPLE!!! You had to do what you needed to do for your people.

Well said. No need to pretend the bs from Trump has any merit.

Well said!

Well said. Clear message to Americans. Wake up and do something about Trump or you will regret it.

Come on Trudeau , everything you said was all good and well until you said trump is smart ?

I think it was Margaret Thatcher during the Reagan administration the one who said, Americans are notorious about choosing stupid presidents. So, what to say about that? What I've heard from some of my friends is that they don't care if democracy is gone as long as their taxes go down. They want a lower income tax bracket. They're very single minded about issues. We'll see how we fair once you have to pay more at the pump, when the price of electronics go up, when produce and beef, pork, and chicken become unaffordable. Yes, the middle and upper middle class probably don't care, but the lower classes and the already poor are not going to be happy. Once people are hungry, then you'll see people on the street. Once the farmers start losing their farms and small businesses start losing their investments, you'll see people on the streets. Americans are not hungry enough yet. Just wait.

They got JT mad af, nigga said 'MAKE THAT MAKE SENSE' lmao, I hear you JT !

Just so you know, when the PM switches to French, he is not simply re-stating what he said; he is continuing the speech.

I only disagree with one thing he said (saying Trump is a smart guy lol).

And nobody's dumb enough to think that this is a short-term fix gas prices are up 70 cents a gallon mostly everywhere let's see who pays for that oh yeah that's right US citizens supposed to fix food prices not up 30% by the way this is all on Trump's watch right oh yeah that's right like I said both sides are liars that's why I'm independent proud of it we put people in office are we take him out of office in the next vote he doesn't care cuz this is his last Rodeo but don't think an impeachment wouldn't be on his record again

Just 4 months ago, this rat Trudeau said America made a mistake in voting for Trump, instead of a woman. Americans voted and overwhelmingly chose President Trump. Justin Trudeau should rather try to repair the damage that he has done to Canada and let the Adult Trump run the US.

All Trump said during his campaign was: 'it's never been done before' but could not present anything tangible to back it whilst being a crook and criminal himself - his actions spoke louder than words, but voters that voted for him heard only words! learn from that

He said, he needs nothing that Canada has. Cut of electricity and oil. He will beg within a week.

Trudeau himself is a wanna-be dictator. He has said he wants to be just like China's leader so therefore I don't believe anything that comes out his mouth!!

said the oppressor of it's citizens

Saying it like it is … as De Nero said “he’s a monster”

So ....why you don't stop fentanyl smuggling to USA and you kept your boarding loosely for illegals immigrants so long, you just said USA is close friend with Canada bla bla bla....shut up.

Perfectly said by Trudeau!!! Absolutely 100% the truth!!!\n\nDeep, deep shame on cruel, ignorant, constantly lying trump & his cronies!!!

Well said. I didn’t vote for him and he needs to be behind bars.

Bro said Donny what’s wrong?

Remember Trump said we don't need goods, minerals, steel etc from other countries we have our own, but now wants Ukraine to capitulate to Russia in exchange for minerals. But Mr Trump you said your country can be self sufficient.

Well said Canadian PM Trudeau! Thank you for saying the truth! We millions & millions of Americans are with Canada and agrees with you! Stay strong against the felon President, he's hurting the American people. Way to go Canada ??

He's a liar trump already said he wants peace he's not with Putin

Well said Justin, we are proud of you! Nothing against american ''normal people'' who did not vote for Trump, just against the fool and his team running the country.

Mostly true.. Except the part where he said Donald was smart ?

This trade war has nothing to do with fentanyl, Trump is a turncoat aka treasonous person who has been working with Russia all along and is using any and all excuses to cause people to look at anything else but him as he lines the pockets of his billionaire buddies because America gave him that when they said a president can't be charged for anything they do while serving in the White house. Thanks a lot supreme court and to all those that voted for him...... I hope you all get deported and lose all your money for putting us Normal non radicalized Americans through h3!!. It's insane how people are so blined that they know he lies and is a criminal and when hit with hard facts he calls it fake news and they all believe it. My own mother in law is one too. I hate this

over reaction by french liberals, all america said is block illegal immigration, but instead of listening trudeu is pushing more immigration

Email this morning said the tarrifs will cost our company $4.4 million per week. I guess no more free coffee.

Well said Mr. Trudeau. I come from Germany and would like to support Canada. An appeal to the German government: import more Canadian products.\n\nOh, and by the way: how many languages ​​does Mr. Trump actually speak?

That same man is the reason why they have these tariffs now!!!!! Anyone that doesn’t see that is a fool!!! Get rid of him and your lives will go back to the normal!! I can’t believe ain’t no one said it yet!! But I will!!! Get rid of him, before he makes it even harder for them!!! Smdh

Nobody ever said, with a straight face, that the orange blob is a smart man. \nThey need to turn off the power they send to the US. They need to order Starlink out of their country. They need to put a 100% tariff on all Tesla products, all products from Kentucky, Tennessee, floridumb, texass, and every other red state. They voted for this, it's what they wanted, so make it hurt hard.

Well said Mr Trudeau!

He said make that make sense

Trump, smart? I think not. This is one element that Justin said that i disagree with.

Good will prevail, and evil will fall.well, said Mister Trudeau. Love this country, my second home, my children's place of birth .We will be ok .

This guys the real deal, Well said lad great Britain ??

so you knew there was a problem on border??only after Trump said something then you woke up....think about that!!!

I dont blame da people dat voted 4 trump. #1 Conman in da world i always said dat. Im sorry but hes good. They said he cant be president

Just a rewrite of the nafta agreement. Trump did this last time. It lasted a month and done. All this media for nothing. Trudope said the same thing 8 years ago. ?

I am Canadian. I hate Trudeau. I support everything he said here.

Everything Trudeau said is true. The problem is trump is acting to destroy America as a functioning nation, likely out of love for OR fear of Vladimir Putin. Nothing else makes sense.

Man, it’s all about the fact that Trudeau was really cool with and praised Obama. The whole Canadian parliament gave Obama a standing ovation when Obama made a speech at said venue. That’s all it is yes it’s that freaking petty.

Ah yes the drama teacher turned corrupt liberal dictator who has RUINED CANADA over the last 9 years!! He makes me sick! He doesn't give 2 ? ? about groceries and gas prices for us. He spent $81,000 of Canadian tax dollars on his own grocery bill this year - yeah! That's $1557 a week or $257 a day stuffing his face. That doesn't even include his dining out. He's a liar and needs to disappear like he said he would ?

Well said!

Venting his emotions in public—man, what a clown. Did he say anything relevant? It took him nine minutes just to say, 'Oh, Trump did what he said three weeks ago,' cry, and play the friend card. Why does he even have the right to speak when he was the president? Man, we’ve got to stop giving attention to that guy.

I believe De Niro said it best

Tell this fool I said go read his Bible
