As an American, I am ashamed that my country somehow chose to re-elect this ghoul and his circus train of hangers-on. God bless you. I wish you and the rest of the free world the best. Just know that the many (likely the majority) of us down here now oppose and revile him as well.

Thank you for setting limits on the oligarchs! They understand nothing except money into the toll booths they've set up in the pathways to acquire products. They care nothing for the American people, let alone any other people. They are not interested in anything but disrupting and dismantling the US economy, as well as every other economy except Russian, so that they can THINK that they are controlling the world. As they are groveling at the feet of the Russian dictator, they are under the illusion that they will rule along side him. They will not and will be kicked aside as soon as they are no longer useful to him.

Our Prime Minister. Not Governor. Prime Minister. We stand on guard for thee. ???. Thank you everyone for all your support! It means the world to us!

I feel like we just made a bunch of bad choices on the Civilzation25 game and now all the other world leaders are denouncing us and the reputation levels are hitting a bunch of red down thumbs

It’s horrible that all of us In the US have to face the consequences of Trump’s insanity, and be labeled as traitors on the world stage. That this was allowed to happen shows America is a deeply ill nation right now. That so many of us can see this president as an absolute monster, while others as a savior, shows how broken we have become. This is something we alone are going to have to figure out.

On the 28th of February, 2025, America was the first country in the world, and on the 1st of March, 2025, it was widely known that EU helped Ukraine more, and that all countries can live without military equipment from the US, and that even poor weak Putin is not afraid of the US. Power is not a business nor a game.

Hey Canada. Huge respect for standing up against this bullying Trump/Vance/Musk/Rubio Gang. Let us Team up to bring wealth and strength to our people. Sad thing is that the nice people from America and their beautiful Country has to suffer under these bullies bring up the whole world up against themselves for no reason. Greetings from Europe.

I think these words mean nothing, one shoudl look at actual data. There have been a tremendous imbalance between the US and most of the world. US produces so much, have so many resourcers but could not compete. Instead, they were forced to open operations in foreign countries, which does not benefit US taxpayers. You like it or not, US was on a downhill if other countries would not agree to make American products competitive.

UK is with Canada. America is no longer an ally to us either. Hatred is growing for the USA across the world at a rapid pace.

Everybody understands but nobody really speak about Trump being hooked by Russian FSB former KGB back in 80s. His order is to destroy alliances in the western world, dissolve European Union, weaken the US. The best agent Russia ever has had.

The world is going to make Trump a 2nd class leader. Every country that stands for democracy shouldn’t let Trump fly into their airspace, or let him come to your country. The countries that have laws that don’t let felons into their countries should apply these laws to Trump, you need to show Trump that enough is enough, and you will not bend to his mafia style of governing. If he our you need to communicate it should be done over a secure video communication, and record it in case Trump threatens you, your country, or if he just goes off the rails in general. If he does threaten you, or your country, or goes off the rails you need to broadcast it to the world. There is strength in numbers, and if the US politicians won’t stand up to Trump, then the rest of the world needs to do so.

go Europe. thanks for being honest. this american wants trump out of office, soon. the working class americans do not have the power, so diappionted with our GOP. they too away from our veterans, our farmers, children of the world, our elderly and us.

The drug and immigration issue is smoke and mirrors. Don’t buy into it. You have a narcissist who looks for issues to motivate his moronic followers. Who , by the way are for the most part well off and affluent.\nJust not well educated and not well versed on the problems of the World. \nMuch as I dislike my present Prime Minister…he is still my Prime Minister and not your Governor.\nHe is fallible because he is a caring human and a sympathetic leader who has tried to make it right for so many.\nCanada is a country of hope not a country of opportunity at the expense of others.\nOur leaders answer to us the people not to rich autocrats.

The Americans got what they voted for! It's called Democracy! Just let the US go down the chosen path as dictated by PROJECT 2025 and let the Americans group up with DPRK, Russia and Iran. The rest of the free world, the civilized world move on with maintaining the the civilized maintenance of Democracy!

Well done, PM Trudeau. You made us proud as Canadians. You said it like it is. Donald, and I noticed you refrained from calling him President Trump because he is certainly not acting like a president, Donald is siding with our enemies, snuggling up to a malicious dictator rather than taking a stand for right and for the common good. He has absolutely no reason to impose tariffs and is actually breaking legal agreements to do so, but we all know that Trump believes he is above the law. If you like this speech, go and listen to Premier Ford of Ontario as he threatens to tariff all the energy which flows into the States or even just cut it off. Nobody wins in this war, certainly not Americans. But Elon and Donald don't care. They are filthy rich and will just plan chaos and world domination in their sandbox while everyone else in the USA takes the hit.

Wow, articulate strong talk, no lies, no propaganda, no bluster, none of the total and complete unrelenting bullshit we have endure on a daily basis from the sociopathic delusional asshole that currently occupies the White House. It should be no surprise that our leadership chooses to blame all of our problems on someone else, because that's exactly what they do every day. We have a drug problem, it's because of Canada and Mexico. We have an immigration problem, likewise Mexico and Canada. We have a deficit problem, that's because of the EU and NATO. Our problem is our government, specifically Republicans who won't accept the simple truth: you want to solve problems you have be disciplined and smart. You have to spend money to fix your problems instead of blaming some else and trying to get them to pay for it. You pay to solve your problems instead of giving huge tax cuts to people who don't need them. You stop lying to your people. You want to change the trade imbalance? Build products that other countries want at a price that makes sense. The EU has no laws that prevent American car manufacturers from selling their cars in Europe. American car companies make shitty cars. They make cars that are too big, that don't make sense for European where streets can be very small and gas is very expensive. The US manufacturers don't make a single small car in thos country that can compete with European cars. US agricultural products are laced with poisonous chemicals that are outlawed in the EU because they kill people. Our governmeent doesn't give a shit about that because to grow healthy food means you have to cut profits, almighty dollars, instead of grow things that the rest of the world will accept. We have an idiot for president who thinks he knows more than anyone else and an idiot party that won't tell him the truth. This is going to cost us big time. We are going into recession, probably a long one because we don't have real leaders and the president on his best day is nothing more than a reality TV personality, and not a very entertaining one at that.

Prime Minister Trudeau is far, far, far above the likes of Donald Trump. As an American citizen I apologize to the rest of the free world for our political and moral failures. Please be patient with us as we work to excise this political cancer from our culture. It may be a long haul but I keep my hopes high.

Trump laughed at Biden but he is the same not OK old man now. He wanted to make America great again but raised inflation, lost neighbours, allies, buyers of military equipment and his own political profit. In one day America has become not the first country in the world but it has become known that EU helped Ukraine more and that all countries can live without US. ?

So, has the USA under Trump turned into a Russian asset.?\nSeriously, the rest of the civilised world especially us in the UK are looking in open-mouthed astonishment at the behaviour of the nominal leader of the free world.\nAmerica is morphing into a broken and divided society, but in the meantime, you're scaring everyone else guys, including your historical allies, because Trump is untrustworthy, he's coming across like a gangster who sees everything as a opportunity for self-enrichment.\nTrump is looking like Putin's Poodle.\nPutin really has got him on a lead, definitely his bitch..!!! \nSupport here from your Commonwealth brothers and sisters in the UK

Canadian here. Trudeau is a ? . He's a slick double-talker who should no longer be out representing canada because he supposedly resigned weeks ago! Why isn't anyone saying anything about that?! Trudeau WANTS this trade war with the US because it is his last desperate attempt at clinging onto power. His party has been gaslighting canadians into accepting his corrupt ideology under the guise of being a liberal (trying to cancel elections, suppressing free speech, telling canadians they dont need to vote, etc). Wake up world! Do not judge a book by its cover! Just because he's handsome and has nice socks does not make him a nice guy!!

Trump is not only is trying to destroy our Country, he also has to destroy the World along with us.

The US cannot fight the world. These are treating partners and friends. Trump is evil.

Well spoken, PM Trudeau! Australians stand with you in this fight. It is very disturbing for us that the USA has shown such a decline in mental and moral equilibrium! We need more honesty like this from all world leaders. ENOUGH of tiptoeing around a complete tosser, orange moron is not helping anyone but himself.

It's a shame what this US administration is doing to us here in the US .....Wake up America before it's too late ...we are isolating ourselves from the democraty world

This is not about Fentanyl or immigration. Trump & Elon are tanking the world economy so their Billionaire friends can buy US AND CA companies cheap.

Help! there an orange vilan and his minions trying destroy the US and the world!

Every US Ally should immediately cease all relations and commerce with the USA until we depose this orange psychopath from the Oval Office, that should send a clear message about what the world thinks of Traitors and Tyrants. US Military Vet.

I hope the rest of the world turns thier back on us and inflicts pain upon us. We have a f ing dangerous idiot as President.

America's economy was a juggernaut the day before Trump and his greedy band of thieves took over, and our strength was in our alliances with Canada, Mexico, and Europe. Our moral strength was in our unwavering support of Ukraine and opposition to Russia. In barely a month Trump has undermined and destroyed all the trust previous administrations (aside from his own) had built. By trying to rob our allies blind and turn the US into a kleptocracy, Trump is destroying the economy and our standing in the world at record pace. Maybe irreversibly.

Trudeau loves Trump. Before these tariffs, Trudeau was one of the most despised prime ministers in Canadian history. Now people around the world are praising him. We don’t need people to stand with us, we need him and his party gone!

The US cannot fight the world. These are treating partners and friends. Trump is evil.

The relationship between Canada and the US is because of Trudeau. He isn’t getting his way so he is making a huge mistake with his disrespect toward our Great President Trump. Canadians want Trudeau to step down. \nHow do I know? I have a huge number of relatives there. My mother was born there and my dad served honorably in the Royal Canadian Navy during the second World War.\nTrudeau is and always has been hateful toward Canadians. Canadians do not respect or like him. \nBy the way… we are boycotting CNN.

TRUMP HAS NO BRAINS. SO CANADA CANNOT BE FOOLED BY HIS POLICIES. SADLY VERY SOON US WILL BECOME 3 RD WORLD COUNTRY. IF THE CHINESE PULL THE SOVEREIGN BONDS OUT. WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO US. CANADA WE CAN STAND ON OUR OWN WITH ALL GOD GIVEN RESOURCES AMEN.

Trump wants to cripple Canada economically so that his billionare buddies can buy us up for pennies on the dollar. He's working with Putin to divide up the world and take the spoils by force.

The US is our biggest ally here in Costa Rica but I can´t agree with what Trump did, does and will continue to do. Disrespectful to all countries. I'm sure the majority here are rooting for Canada and Mexico.\nIts time for the world to remind the US that they need us all and not the other way around.

Trump killed All Americans freedoms today Trump has alined himself with Putin Stand up all Americans don't give a fist pump to Trump as he hands us all to Putin and Elon regeim Soviet rule If you have travel plans Americans are not welcome around the world Pay attention

How can any country in the world trust what the US regime will do next?\nI simply do not understand what has happened to USA. It's very sad and alarming.

Well he did say he would build a wall. Unfortunately it's to keep us in and away from the world.

The US is one of the world's greatest democracies, currently run by a group of narcissists who only care about their own interests, who only want the caos.. At this dark moment for the US, I think the world needs the American people to speak out and be true to their values.

Do Americans not understand that if we don’t do the things that need to be done our country will fall. How can yall not see that he is taking care of us before the rest of the world. Have respect for the man who wants his country thriving instead of the world thriving while we suffer and just give out hand outs. Y’all are blind that this country got run into the ground and now he must do what needs to be done to get us out. Sit back, let him cook. When we are secure we can then work on the rest of the world.

I hope the world clearly see that many of us Americans feel like we’re being held hostage by a rogue government.\n\nWe stand behind anyone who can either bring it to its senses, fix it, or take us as refugees. Things are growing increasingly dire… and Republican voters are cheering it on.

I'm not American. I grew up hearing lots of hate bout USA cuz the US doesn't exactly have a good rep in foreign policies - always bullying other nations, starting wars for oil etc. but I've always preferred USA not just for the world order it brings, it allows different voices, criticism & scolding towards its leaders compared to China, Russia & North Korea. \n\nin the US, you can talk bad bout politicians in power, or probably make movies bout these kind of things like US invading other countries for oil, or testing out some cruel AI military robots on humans (movie name: Monsters of Man), & you won't be persecuted. but after looking at a bunch of executive orders Trump has signed, the way he (& JD Vance) treated Zelenski & Canada, I don't know if I still feel the same bout USA anymore.\n\nif USA doesn't wanna continue spending on Ukraine, perhaps USA shouldn't have sweet talked Ukraine into denuclearization thru the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. that's what you get for mendling with other countries' affairs. by stopping US aid & wanting a new mineral deal, Trump's refusing to follow the Memorandum (I added this sentence thru edit as I can't reply to the comment below).\n\nunderstandably, US & UK don't need to deploy troops in Ukraine as the security assurance in the memorandum wasn't clearly defined, but it also didn't mention that Ukraine should pay the US back financially, nor any mineral concessions. \n\nTrump always wanting a purely 1 sided deal will only isolate USA from more allies.

While I am going to financially suffer from this, I want to see our country start new deals with Europe and Asia. Until tRump is gone and ALL of his minions have left office, I don't want to see any deals with the US. \nWe knew Trump wanted to destroy Canada financially. This was NOT about fentynal.\nWe have enough wood, enough oil, and enough resources to establish good relationships around the world. And sustain fellow Canadians.

@robertedward7023 It can but I think Trump is right on this one. Zelensky needs to realize that he won't get his land back that Russia took, and that negotiating is the only way to come to peace now. He's living in a fairytale world fighting an unwinnable war. I think the US is right to pull the plug on financial aid to try to pressure Zelensky to negotiate to end the war. Unfortunately, to end the war Ukraine will likely have to concede the land they lost. But the reality is Putin will never give that land back. But it's better than more people dying everyday. Zelensky has gotten all too comfortable relying on financial aid and as a result he hasn't been willing to try anything new (like negotiate) to get this war finished. If we keep sending him money, nothing will change. Now he has pressure to negotiate. the US and Canada can't keep sending money to Ukraine for the next 20 years while this war carries on.

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for speaking truth and for standing against the felon who is destroying us. He and his cult are dangerous to the world and must be fought in any way possible.

What has Canada and European countries done to actually try and end the death and destruction from this war? Europe buys energy from Russia, and Canada is only giving 650 million dollars in weapons over three years, while America has supplied hundreds of billions of dollars in aid and military equipment. Zelensky goes around the world dressed in a military outfit with no desire to stop the slaughter of humans on both sides. There have been thousands of wars where, eventually, one side has to accept the reality that they can not win, Zelensky is unwilling to see this. President Trump was elected because we want his AMERICA FIRST AGENDA, and with us saddled with 36 TRILLION dollars of debt, this war needs to stop.

Eveything that Trump is doing has Putin written all over it. Everything that Russia could benefit from is being executed by the President of The USA. We really are witnessing the beginning of a dark chapter in American and world history. Trump is destroying (deliberately) crucial historical alliances that have benefitted the US itself. It really is mind-blowing stuff.

In Canada you do not have freedom of speech, they will send you to re-education! Ask Jordan Peterson! In Canada you don’t have 2nd amendment either, as Canada has no such law for self defense with a firearm, in Canada the Government can seize your bank accounts and bankrupt you if you protest! Ask the truckers! No, we do not stand with a Dictator who use to be a high-school drama teacher! Canada is free to fund Ukraine all it wants! But our support has been 20x more plus intelligence. We will do what’s best for our people! Clinton took Ukraines Nuclear Weapons in 1994 and promised Russia would not take aggression against them. We need to stay out of Europes mess, they dragged us into 2 world wars and it’s not our job to constantly deal with their mess!

♥♥♥♥Canadian over here. Many thanks to all of you good people around the world who are supporting us.
