Now prime minister Trudeau you are a leader you are standing up and with your fellow Canadians. You sir are a true gentleman, a true leader and I applaud you and I pray your words will sink into the head of this egomaniac God bless you. God bless the USA

Someone told him what a was a tariff was a couple months ago and now he loves the word he said. It effects him 0 percent

I'm an American and I'm beyond disgusted that the convicted felon adjudicated rapist Dictator worshipper Dictator wannabe was allowed to run for any political office especially President. I believe Musk's vote counting system corrupted the election. I have never and never will vote for Trump and his evil co conspirators. Now some of the MAGA voters are regretting their votes, well they chose to believe the cons lies over the easily verifiable facts especially Project 2025 that again lied on national TV that he knew nothing about Project 2025 yet his name is on hundreds of pages in project 2025 documents. Trump and his goons belong in prison.\nI support and love Canada and Ukraine. Devastating that the real elected President Kamala Harris was robbed of that because of manipulation and foreign interference. Americans are suffering and the suffering will get worse except for the top wealthiest.\nThank you Prime Minister for standing up to the biggest deranged bully on Earth and all the countries that are supporting Canada.\nIt disturbs me beyond words, I have generations in my family that have served in our military, ,my father served in WWII and Korea he fought at the Battle of the Bulge and liberated Buchenvald concentration camp the atrocities he witnessed affected him for the rest of his life, and here we have a 5 time draft dodger whose rich daddy paid a Dr to falsify deferment paperwork for phoney bone spurs, he's a coward and a bully

I'm American, I'm cheering for Canada. Our government has broken its word to yours. I do not believe that Trump's actions represent the wishes of most Americans but many of them DID vote for him (and the utterly spineless Congressional Republicanswho enable him) and all of us are going to pay the price, quite literally.

And the whole word standup if America think,'s they run the world too late the hero

CNN. If there is any action that strengthens America they are against it. In fact, they’ll work tirelessly against America in every word spoken.

When he started talking to Doney, Trudeau starting using smaller words.

As an Navy vet what kills me is the U.S., Russia and Ukraine issued an historic Trilateral Statement that promised security assurances to Ukraine once the START I Treaty entered into force and Ukraine became a non-nuclear weapons state and a party to the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty. We as a country have allowed 700 THOUSAND people to perish because we didn't keep our word...it sickens me to no end.

Canada has been the preferred access point for criminals and terrorist for the past 4 years. I have a place right on the border and 8 months ago I caught a young East Indian who already had several felony in the states and had been shipped back to India in previous years. How the heck did that man get a student visa to come to Canada. There are 50,000 East Indian Students missing in Canada who simply used the visa to get into Canada and run the border. This is what we’re are dealing with. I live on the border and I’ve never seen this much traffic. Border guards are simply picking their targets and having to ignore others. So I ask u how do u think I feel about my property being used as an illegal highway bcz of your government incompetence. As someone who also works in native communities throughout Canada I’ll also Trudeau words fall like shit from ass. The drugs have ravaged native communities to the tune of 3/4 of the young ppl. Grandparents are raising the grandchildren and it’s all kept hush hush by the liberal media. They’ve done nothing to stop it bcz it normally boils down to minority groups who they brought in who are making it.

jt words have no credibility just blah blah blah

Take off the word blistering so that my Trump-supporting family members will watch. It's important information for everyone to hear.

So let's team up and go after drugs back up your words

Never did I think I would agree with Justin Trudeau, however today I couldn't agree more with every single word he has said.

The convicted criminal and his vice president exercising abuse of power, beings without values, without respect for human life. The words do not match their actions. The liar will not get off scot-free, true ignorance is not the absence of knowledge, but the fact of refusing to acquire it, the worst thing is to deal with an ignorant person and it is especially dangerous if the ignorant has power. The convicted criminal announces his ignorance when he speaks.

Speak slower please the pace is too blistering and incomprehensible for us dumb American's. We just made english our official language so please exercise patience and slow it down to no more than three words per minute.

Trump is going to make him eat his words

Has everyone forgot that during Trumps first term HE signed the biggest and best trade deal that anyone’s ever seen ( in his words ) with Mexico and Canada? He sat right in front of cameras and did it , and as usual showed off his fantastic signature. THAT trade deal was NEVER changed, even thru the last 4 years administration. But all of a sudden Trump walks in mouthing about it, blaming everyone else for it, and ready to change things? Why? What’s the issue? Let me guess… does he not remember doing that either?

In your own words you have done nothing during biden administration to stop illegals or drugs you have started in january 2025 sell your canadian products elsewhere?

Mr. Trudeau, didn't mince words. Dumb is an understatement as it concern's trump.

Thank you so much for your wise and words. I’m not an canadian nor american, but I feel just a little better now after all horrível Trump interventions.

Yes, the number two in the Oval Office is Pence, and his words often come across as cheap, bullying tactics. Instead of offering real leadership or thoughtful discussion, he uses language that tries to intimidate and put others down. His approach often feels like he's trying to hold onto power by scaring people, rather than standing on solid ground with strong ideas. This kind of talk may work for some, but it only creates more division and gets in the way of real progress.\nThe biggest mistake was introducing tariffs without any backup plans in place. The bottom 60% of U.S. citizens will likely struggle to make ends meet in less than two years, stuck behind the barriers of these tariffs. The idea that South American countries might step in to help the U.S. seems unrealistic. More likely, the U.S. will find itself isolated, facing political instability—and to put it bluntly, a loss of trust—thanks to an overinflated ego and a sense of entitlement.\nCould the U.S. turn to African countries for their natural resources? It’s possible, but this effort probably won’t be successful. Most African nations, except for those in the Sahel region, are just beginning to recover from the effects of colonialism. Many are now building their own paths and are more likely to align with China’s influence rather than the U.S. Even if the U.S. tries to get resources from Africa, it will likely face challenges from both local resistance and growing competition from China.

I am Ukrainian, we are grateful to everyone who supports us, because our people die and we live in constant fear that a russian rocket or drone will hit our heads now. Every day air raid alert. Thank you so much to Justin Trudeau for calling putin with the true words - lying murderous dictator.

President Trudeau. You are awesome. Wish we had you to be ours in America. We dknt sng z dictator, like Trumpit!!!! He's a communist & dictator exactly like putin. ? God Bless you & your country. Dont back down & don't trust Trumpit on his word. He'll stab you in the back. Tou have good facts as some of our medis & democrats. Praying ? ? gor all of you. Be safe❤

Some MAGA maniacs, they may be listening to this may experience brain burst , too many words in one press conference that all are understandable and make sense and can be fact checked

Thank you for your courageous words.

Trump didn't understand a single word of this speech. Right now the white house staff are making drawings so Trump can understand it.

pointless speech from a pointless individual. Just more words from the worst leader ever. Please just go away. this is all your fault Trudeau. You should be apologizing to every Canadian for this situation.

Donald Trump doesn’t use big words like this guy lol I’m moving to Canada ??

“We stuck to our word”. \nIt’s over for Donald.\nYesterday “don’t fawn over Putin” by Keir Starmer. \nDonald will do more\nFor attention. Until Americans wake up your leader can’t stop his tantrum.

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.

Trudeau speaks many words, I understand them, they make sense. trump speaks many words, I understand nothing, they make no sense ??❤??????

I am moved with his words. One of the best address so far in the history-crystal clear and deeply impactful.

I love how Trudeau begins using words like 'big' and 'very' with much expression just like Donald Trump would when he speaks directly to him

This man is so hated by his own people that he resigned 2 months ago and his replacement is set to take office sometime soon. Don’t let his way with words sway you the way it did Canadians for almost a decade. That is all he is— all words and no action.

Todays word is TOGETHER. TOGETHER \nTOGETHER. Its like an episode from Sesame Street . TOGETHER

Well idk my market is going up very nice today. Also we can make every Canadian goods at home so that there is no weight to his words in my eyes. I do say if Canada is doing all these measures though it would be nice to come to an agreement with Canada. To be friends with neighbors is always better than not being friends. So overall I'm kinda torn between it all. We don't need Canada to be honest but just because we don't need them does not mean we should not work with them. Very tuff situation at this moment.

Why don't they let people here what he has to say ? Because they want to smear trump unstead of letting the viewers hear his words

You simply can't reason with the left. Their censorship. Their drama queen word play. Their distain for reality. So, get ready to rumble. Unreasonable people must be dealt with unreasonable measures. Are tariffs unreasonable? Yep. Welcome to your world.

JT has a way with words, man. Insanely good public speaker.

Canadians dont like this fool ! He words are frivolous

They use Fentanyl, DEI, Woke, immigrants, Gov't waste, as a key word to justify the tearing down. Trump can lie to the uneducated that he loves, the racist and the greedy, but other Countries will check him. The Skipper and Gilligan is on this super hero movie villain tip.

Never been a huge fan of Trudeau, but the look in his eye and the words he uses actually makes me wanna cry. This guy is amazing so passionate so Canadian. Never back down to the Orange Blob

Canada must strong, word needs strong leader and diversification.

Make That Make Sense. Here you go Trudeau. . If US aligns with Ukrain, as very very sad as this situation is, Trump would be declaring opposition with Russia. Then China aligns with Russia. Then WW3 starts on North American soil. Did Trump word everything right? Absolutely NOT. NOPE. However… I don’t want a war either. Trump should have just stayed out of it. \n\nLastly Trudeau you liar. You said “no one wins in a trade war…”. Yet you respond to tariffs with tariffs. You just started a trade war!!!! \n\nHow’s that for making sense enough for you!!

Strong words from our PM. I applaud this message. Canada stay strong !

It's interesting when he referred to Donald he had to use the words Big and greater ..the words being used to inflate the ego of child man

This is the guy who said we do not use the word mankind anymore, but use humankind ?

President Trudeau, Black America believes every word you're saying. We have always fought for this country even though this country has never fought for us. It is White America that is tearing down this democracy to maintain white supremacy. White America has done this. The numbers don't lie. Unfortunately, all Americans will suffer.

I'm sorry, that's not anti-Americanism. Word choices matter, and this was intentional. Think what you will of Trudeau or Canada, the reason people are turning away from networks like CNN is at least in part because you continue to pay people who are incentivized to frame everything as pro-America or anti-America. Some better choices might have included: frustrated, honest, distressed, resolved. Nothing Trudeau said was in any way anti-American.

He speaks like he has some sort of authority! Choose your words carefully numb skull!
