Brave! Proud of you PM Trudeau and the rest of our Canadian leaders for standing up to Trump

Stand tall and do not bend the knee. The northern states should do more to fight Trump. This will hurt them. Remember Bellingham when the Canadian dollar was $1.50. Bellingham shut down and jobs were lost.

It’s not your fault Trudeau. We know it’s trump’s fault. He’s a rat bastard and I didn’t vote for him. You take care of your good people. As an American citizen, I wish you were our president! I stand with Canada ?? and Ukraine!??

Don’t panic as you tune in and read this shit show called news, I’m listening to a foreigner on talking on CNN, Trumps is only been in 100 days, don’t believe there fear mongering stand strong those who were born here and love this country.

Europe must stand strong and independent! The U.S. can’t dictate global trade while waging economic warfare. It’s time for Europe to impose high tariffs on American goods and services—no more one-sided deals! We don’t need Silicon Valley giants like Apple, Google, or Tesla to thrive. If Trump escalates, it will backfire on the U.S. Let’s unite with Canada, China, and Mexico to push back. Europe, step up and go all in! ????

I'm so jealous of Canada rn. They have a competent leader. This is insane that tRump keeps attacking our ALLIES AND SIDING WITH FCKIN RUSSIA AND NORTH KOREA!! I'm disgusted at the people who voted for this bafoon and our government and the Republicans who won't find a damn backbone and save our country from this evil pos. I can't be mad at Trudeau or Canada, were fully in the wrong. & The way he's placating trump at the end is hilarious cause he knows being fully honest will make trump the pentulent toddler have a big tantrum. Someone help us. Y'all just couldn't let Kamala win. We would be in much better hands. Y'all suck. As an American I absolutely stand w Canada! Trump is wrong!!!

I feel sick, sad, angry, and scared with everything going on right now. As a veteran, my heart is absolutely broken.\n\nWe're stuck between a rock and a hard place right now. The MAGA refuse to see or believe what's going on. They've been 100% brainwashed. The people in our government who can do something are standing back and laughing us off. It's very surreal. And very few of us have been able to save up enough to move. And moving to another country is incredibly expensive and difficult.\n\nI did not vote for Trump. Many didn't. Those who did are too proud to admit that what's going on is wrong. So long as it punishes people who think differently than them, they're glad to cut off their own arms to do so.

Donald trued to squeeze Ukraine financially so he can get their natural resources, and his friend putin, can add it to his country, Donald is trying to do the same to Canada, it was always a deceptive excuse given through the media, knowing full well he was NEVER going to keep his word. Canadians are bigger than you and your pets at the Whitehouse. We have morales, values, and integrity and will never let you win. What the trump administration stands for is very clear from the type of individuals running it and the type of friend it is keeping. B

As an American who opposes - STRONGLY opposes - the Trump administration and everything it stands for, I am sorry for what our country's government is doing to the rest of the world but especially to our oldest, closest allies. \n\nThe MAGA faithful will remain faithful even as the prices of virtually everything goes up and up and our economy tanks. They believe what comes out of Trump's mouth no matter what it is, no matter how obvious reality proves him wrong. Those of us who know what Trump really is have known what he's really about since the beginning. He's about himself and nothing more. His every move, his every word is about further enriching himself and patting himself on the back for his greatness.\n\nHis election to a 2nd term (and maybe more if he decides to ignore our Constitution) will be written about in the history books and it will not be favorable. This is what he wants, though. He wants to be thought of as an influential figure. Well, he is that. But so was a certain little Austrian monster who is remembered with great shame and disgust.

Trump is serving Putin and most Republicans just stand by complicit to his treason.

I am an American and I kindly as all world leader to stay on Trump's neck!!! Dont let up! Keep your foot on that man's neck till we can get him out of office. We citizens who didnt vote for this will pay the price. Its a burden that will hit us all... but its our burden to carry now. Dont let up. We dont want this either. We love our allies. And the best thing you can do for us, is fight back. We remain neighbors, friends and allies. Do what you must Canada. We understand and we are sorry.\n\nI, an American, stand with the Ukraine and Canada ?? ??

I am an American and I live in Florida. I hate this. I stand with Canada and Europe. Trump is the downfall of America

I stand with the USA not Canada.. don’t have problems with Canada but I support my president and trust in what he is doing.. give him a chance… if he doesn’t do what he says and doesn’t make America great again will vote him out… look at all the previous president clowns in office. I am loyal to my country. I bleed United States no matter what.. I may not always like what has happened shot look at Biden but I’ll never side a with another country i pledge my allegiance to the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ??

I’m not getting gov assistance and I have lived a non victim life! President trump I pray for you as a real believer and outstanding citizen! Tarrifs of equal amt is fair!!!

canada i am so sorry for what the usa has done. trump is an angry demented old man. he bullies everyone including americans in office. he has the money of the drug addict elon behind him so that he can legally go after everyone. and god knows what trump owes putin. dont trust trump. i am thankful that leaders all over the world are standing up to trump, even if few american leaders can / will.

I stand with my President!!!!!! I have pride and love my country and have served my country as a military soldier and as a nurse! I have a clean record and no kids non marital!! I’m not getting gov assistance and I have lived a non victim life! President trump I pray for you as a real believer and outstanding citizen!

Alright guys. I was wrong. Trump is a traitor and I can’t stand for him any longer. I’ve never voted for him but I’ve supported him all three elections. I’ll never support a Republican again. Every single one of them is complicit in this.

From Scotland. We stand with our canadian friends and against the Trump administration

Trump managed to piss off Canada, a country that literally has no issues with anyone, like how do you do that? Canada is like the nice popular girl out of the popular girls group. Like she knows she’s pretty and popular but is humbled about it . And when her friends bully you, she stands up for you. Only trump can manage to piss off someone like that off. From Australia, we stand with you Canada!

America has gone rogue Donald Trump, and JD Vance are Traitors to democracy to their own people the free world it's sickening that the American public could be juped like this for your own good we in the West must stand our ground to this.

Let's make this crystal clear. Donald Trump has declared a trade war with Canada not America. The Trump Tariffs and the Trump Alienation of our allies is a betrayal of America and it's citizens. The vast majority of Americans are against these actions and stand with our allies. Free nations do what needs to be done but please do not cast blame on those Americans who reject this administration wholeheartedly. The Trump administration DOES NOT represent America they are BETRAYERS!

Even though we as Americans might disagree with President Trump, we have to stand firm on some things here, the way PM Trudeau came on here and reversed this tariffs on the US after all we done with this is still an attack on us, we have to think broader and wider, I am a 22 year retired Navy vet and seen how these countries treat us and we have been taken advantage of, it’s time we stand firm. I love my Canadian brothers and sisters, but this more a government issue here.

To the Americans who are outraged by Trump, you need to stand up and truly fight like the MAGAts did when they stormed the capital on Jan 6th. If you really have a problem with whats going on you need to take a stand and make a difference. If you just sit back then you are allowing it to go on. Sorry if thats unfair to say but we're living in a time where your Leader is going to only get worse and worse and start a World War if he isnt stopped and held accountable. This level of Terrorism against Canada, Greenland, Palestine, Ukraine, Mexico, Japan and China CANNOT go unpunished. Throughout history if this happened 20+ years ago this would have NEVER happened because people would stand up against oppressors and dictators. Its time to do just that.

CNN correspondence never gives the more impactful concerns - in this case, the concern should be the fact that DT is attacking Canada, our friends, and Mexico, our friends - because he's a fkn traitor - and the US Constitution that says it's our American duty to stop people like him. The government and the common people must be overlooking these crimes and willing to give up their rights and freedoms. The original KGB and the long running Putin agenda is the slow game in his global conquest for power. You have to consider the geopolitics. If Mexico and Canada won't defend us (because they hate Trump) DT can/will sell out America to Russia, in turn Canada would be the closest place to conquer, then Mexico. It's stupid tho, unless the UN stands back and watches this happen too. Think I'm bullshittin, reading too far into things, but I'm not. Nobody is at the wheel but Trump, and he doesn't even know how to drive. You, the people and corporate new media will never read far enough to get the entire picture. Krasnov stole the Country to handicap us in the Cold War, except the War is white hot. He's in line with Hitlers handbook. And don't forget, that Nazis were white people who had no problem offing white people. Just sayin. Nobody is safe in Trump country. It's all Biffed up now.

It is a shame that Justin Trudeau has resigned as Canada's Prime Minister. His decency and leadership contrasts enormously with trump and is what Canada, and the world needs these days. I stand with Canada. Thak you Mr. Trudeau.

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!

Trudeau and other leader angry because someone is finally standing up for the US!!! These so called allies have used and abused the US for too long! It's over thanks to Trump!?????????

Trudeau is truly standing up for my country against Trump’s threats.

I’m American but I stand with everything he said!! trump and the republicans are siding with dictators and continue to lie to them about everything….I never thought as an American… the supposed leaders of the democracy free world….would really allow a felon to destroy our country and make us TRAITORS siding with DICTATORS ?

Us sane Americans are afraid of what this will mean for us and how we will survive, but I also don't fault Canada, as my fascist President has brought this upon us. And if anything, hopefully this might be a step toward stopping Trump's tyranny. I stand with Canada and I stand with the USA and my fellow Americans, but FDT. This is not my America or the America that my grandparents and other ancestors fought for.

CNN…lies lies lies. Trudeau is an idiot. Loser. I stand with Trump!

???\nAs a Black??American I stand by ?KING??TRUMP’S?? decision ❤\n\nCanada ?? is not like US ?? \nKendrick ?? vs Drake ??

Thank you for standing up to Trump. He's an idiot. Wish you were our president. Trump is a Russian asset.

I see a LOT of emotions here in the comments from people who like to tout where they're from for some really weird reason. I imagine to represent the soap box they stand upon. I find it ironic people are giving underhanded insults to Donald Trump by comparing how Trudeau speaks, yet I can almost guarantee those same people brag about how they refuse to listen to a word Donald Trump says. So its a really silly way to try to insult someone. Also just checked some of my stocks daily returns. Up over 2%. So he was wrong within the first 10 minutes. I suspect the market will become more bullish as some of the companies that have made deals to create factories in the US complete them and start churning out products made locally.

Scotland stands with Canada now and always ??????? Fuck Trump, Fuck Vance, Fuck Elon. Go get them!!!

Wow, a truly impressive speech! Thank you so much for standing up against the bullying Trump-administration. These dangerous clowns are about trying to dismantle democracy and freedom all over the western world.\nMe and my family were planning to visit USA for vacation this summer. After the shameful White House -meeting last Friday these plans were immediately abandoned. We now decided that we are going to Canada instead. \nGreetings from Switzerland

Love from Oregon! Hit us hard, Canada! Show all these stupid trump supporters that the rest of the world won't put up with them voting for a dictator! He's a lying felon, and i can't believe we have to deal with this. Just know many many many americans also did not want this and stand with our longest ally! Go Canada!

Very well spoken. An intelligent leader, (not like Trump), standing for the people of Canada. Not someone who lines his and his mates pockets! Trump truly believed allies would have his back!! News Flash.. He doesn’t!!

Wish he would have said “Today, Trump launched a trade war…” not all Americans stand with Trump. I stand with our Allies.

I'm so embarrassed by what Trump is doing to this country! I stand with Canada ??

An American patriot here I support whatever our allies have to do!! Trump and his administration do not represent all of Americans!! Do not trust him, he never faces any consequences legal or otherwise! Our allies stand up to him and so must American patriots. If nobody tried to put up roadblocks he would become an authoritarian dictator like Putin only dumber!! His cannot happen his threat of World War III to Zelenskyy would be in part because of the US government! The American government is a hostile government at this time!!
