USA got to the point when it has the worst president ever, he is very destructive , divided and dumb. He is breaking the best military force on the planet: Nato. The nightmare for Americans.

Preach it brother Trudeau! Not all Americans stand with tRump, vAncy, or mUsty! They could care less about our friends and allies! They care about only themselves, and how much money they can grift from everyone! I disagree with one of your points. He is NOT a smart guy.

We need people getting on fox and saying this stuff, CNN crowd already knows what's up. We need to be in republican spaces pointing out all of this stuff, but to get them to listen you can't be all ' I told you so' or confrontational, because they won't listen to anything else after that

At this point Trump is a Russian Op

What a great speech. Straight to the point. No bullsh*t. !!

putin & donnie plan to coordinate a takeover starting with the US (which donnie has already initiated). Thank you PM Trudeau - you and others please keep standing up to him because our own representatives are cowards who choose power, prestige, privilege and profits over their constituents. donnie has already bowed down to putin. donnie has missed the fact that fentanyl is smuggled in via container ships from china along with mailed packages and trucks from Mexico. Agents can inspect at the borders until the cows come home but smugglers will always come up with new ways to hide contraband. Oh yeah, donnie is NOT a “very smart guy”. The WSJ is wrong on that point. Don’t feed his ego.\nStay strong Canada ❤

That's how a true leader conveys his point to his people

Trump is actively working for Russia at this point. And as H. Clinton said some ( not all) of his supporters are Despicable ppl.

Thank You PM Trudeau, but the point IS to hurt the people, because a broken people are easier to control while you stage a bloodless coup, with the beneficiaries being Russia and the billionaire oligarchs. Create confusion, chaos and fear and you control the people. Threaten their very way of life and create instability and you control the people. Rage and rant and bully them into submission and you subdue them into accepting a new status quo.This doesn't make sense because that's not the point. There is a silent coup enacted by a hostile foreign entity underway!

It's getting to the point that as an american. I almost just want to move somewhere else. This administration is a clown show. It's tiring

His speach is meaningless what is the point of talking about putin while to issue is all aboit trade war.

Gotta disagree w/ Mr. Trudeau on one point, when he says Trump is 'very smart'--NO. Otherwise, Trudeau's speech was spot-on, and I love and respect Canada even more now. Most of us Americans cannot be proud of our country; we are held captive by a wannabe dictator and his stooges who are self-serving, vindictive, and UNpatriotic! To gather some semblance of sanity, I am taking the family on a Canadian Rockies tour in late spring--am tempted to not return home again.

At what point will the American Military step in to remove this Putin Stooge.\nTrump and Putins other acolytes need to go.

How come still nobody knows what Putin has on Trump? What was this secretive meeting in Helsinki years ago about? What was discussed there? Trump being Trump, who lies and who is weak of charactre and as bribeable and corrupt as they come. Can't put a normal sentence together. Picture that big toddler in a room with Putin and Putin alone.. Nobody knows what was discussed there. Now they have a president picking fights with his allies. He is fumbling at the very basis which NATO, Europe and US stands for, stood for.\nAt this point Trump basically is putting USA into isolation. Putin and Xi couldn't be more happy.

Mr.Trudeau, you are not reasonable and polite at any point. You dropped the ball with Trump and the world. Your immigration, housing and inflation situation is worse. I wonder when would you leave the office. Last I heard is that you wanted to leave and you discussed it with your son/daughter on breakfast table.

Fantastic speech. Straight to the point! Standing with Canada, from Poland ?

Call whatever war monger talking points\n It has to come to an end peroid.\nNew sheriff in town❤

Thank you Mr. Trudeau for pointing out the truth and reality of the current situation because we will not hear truth or reality from our current president. In the end, the truth will set us free.

That's the big point what Prime minister from Canada said , this is just what they want that the allies weaken and Trump traps in it , Al this years so many work to build strong Canada and USA is just in a second gone because 1 stupid Man and that's President Trump

Donald doesn’t care too much about facts , he just talks mostly BS and if he’s corrected will stamp his feet and have a big baby meltdown. The best current example is Ukraine. I will disagree with one of Justin’s points , Donny is not a very smart guy, he just says he is which is the last thing that smart people will say.

He's missing the American point. Our friends are now our enemies. Just as our enemies are now our friends. Only problem is our president is the only fool who believes Russia likes us. Our fool of a president doesn't realize how Putin is playing him like a fiddle.

Liberals of all western countries drove us apart and to do this bullshit lets be real here for a second. What Trump did at the Ukraine meeting is weakness? Ukraine is the epitome of weakness morons, they should learn to preserve their own assets while waging a senseless war since 2014 when Maidan happened. Clowns, your country giving billions away and what will you have in return back from Ukraine? Nothing, cause they looking for handouts. More use and benefits from Russia at this point then EU and Ukraine.

Any words from Trudeau covered by CNN is mush at this point. Both are garbage..

Libs are so mad right now.. well they have been for a few months but thats beyond the point ?

Wow! American here. I just scrolled through hundreds of responses, looking for idiots spouting maga talking points, and did not find a single one. This gives me hope. I just hope MAGA comes to their senses before our economy is ruined. Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, and thank you, Canada.

Global elite WEF talking points against President Trump \nJust like the democrats in the U.S \nAt least they all have the good quality of loyalty --- to the worlds wealthy elite \nRussia Russia Russia gate 2.0

As a US citizen, I apologize on behalf of this corrupt administration. I certainly didn't vote for the ??, and I'm not sure how anyone could have... yet, here we are. Half of the US certainly deserves it, and I fully understand the need for extreme measures at this point. What he did to Zelenskyy and what he is doing to our allies...yall do what ya gotta do. Half of us are rooting for Canada, Ukraine, and our allies. Idk what's wrong with the other half, but its shameful to say the least. It was never about fentanyl. Trump doesn't give half of a fuck if people die from fentanyl or otherwise.

Its infuriating what tRump is doing against our allies in order to score points with his puppet-master, putin. His actions are traitorous and need to be treated as such.???

JIimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George Bush Sr, Bill Clinton, George Bush Jr, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, agree or disagree with them they never destroyed so much in their time in office. In My 50 years of life I have never seen such a diplomatic failure. Canada, UK, Australia and the Eu have been our closest allies since ww2 and Mr. Trump is his maga disciples are heading towards what the Soviet Union and the old Warsaw pact countries couldn't do in over 50 plus years. Canada Stand strong, France and the Eu Stand strong, UK and Australia nothing but love and respect from a disgusted American citizen. Hopefully democrats can flip the house or the senate in a couple years, or some republican senators will get some intestinal fortitude to at least stalemate the senate to turn the madman into an essential lame duck president. At the point no white house representation is better then what Trump has in store. President Zelesky all the respect in the world, you're what a leader should be, and hopefully your true world leader friends will stand for what's right. Love and respect and apologizes to Nato Eu Ukraine and Canada. A majority of Americans are absolutely disgusted by what this country has turned into.

Shutdown the power grid its the only ,way to prove your point fast.\nThe power going off is the best act for Canada

For all of you supporting Zelenskyy, the man cannot even account for $100 billions -- yes, billions with a B -- given to his country, and his stupidity plays right into the hands of starting WWIII, if we're not in it already. Ukraine is just another source of money laundering, and here we are just willing to give more and more money without any result, except for dead bodies. There is nothing wrong for wanting peace. You can't negotiate with only one side. And for Canada, Canada has been charging us high tariffs for years, but no one has pointed out that unfairness.

I disagree with Trudeau on one point. Trump is NOT a very smart man.

Prime Minister Trudeau is so articulate and stays on point!! Trump is so illiterate he can't even read a teleprompter!!

Blistering speech? ? that man i s SOFT. And CNN tries changeling the point of views from others with inaccurate title.

It makes perfect sense, he is setting the stage to install puppet leaders. Erode trust in the current administration of these countries to a point where people do anything to get things back to normal, and then offer an alternative, whose values all aligned with trumps

As an American, I don’t watch CNN clips and believe what politicians say on either side to get my news. However, it’s absolutely true that EU, and China places tariffs on the US. It is also true that United States provide most of the security for all the free nations. At what point do we say enough? I do not know if Mexico or Canada has tariffs on US goods before this. But if they did, they have become quite entitled, haven’t they.

While I acknowledge that the way Trump and Vance addressed Zelensky could have been more diplomatic, as an American , I cannot justify allocating $360 billion of our tax funds towards resolving another counties war—especially when only half of that amount has been accounted for, and the other half remains untracked. Let that point sink in! The US is currently in $33 Trillion dolars in debt yet giving away money like candy . No other country is contributing money like we are . We simply do not have the resources to continue doing that . Our financial situation is worsening as we print more money to allocate toward other countries. Furthermore, 7% of the $33 trillion of the US debt is owed by other countries , including China . Our funds need to be utilized for our own benefit before being given away. We have veterans on the streets, the elderly suffering because SS isn't covering their basic needs , school system thatvis failing , health insurance unaffordable by most. We need to fix our own issues. We need to feed our own kids before we feed the neighbors, not the other way around.

Trudeau makes some good points. Unfortunately, he doesnt have the cards.

Talking straight to the American people we don't want to do this to you but your Government chose to do this to YOU.. Wow wake up Americans we are better than this I'm appalled by this Administration it's beyond my comprehension at this point.. I stand with Canadians

As an American, I can say I 100% stand with Canada and their response. Trump and his henchmen are LITERALLY severing ties with our greatest allies while simultaneously sucking up to scumbag Putin! I can’t understand how this can be a good thing? We’re becoming just another authoritarian nation at this point…

At what point does the International Olympic Committee and other international sports bodies step in and ban the USA from the upcoming Olympics? \nTrump has made his position clear that he feels Russia is not at fault for anything that has happened in Ukraine. The debacle that went on in the Oval office on February 28th was not only disgusting, but it proved to me that the president is not willing to be a peaceful friend to anyone on a personal or global level. Today's tariffs only cements that proof. The framework is in place to make a strong case to ban USA from the Olympics and current future international sports events. I realize this would impact many good people, but a country hell bent on hating those fighting so hard for their freedom has no place on any playing field right now.

i hope you can stand the eventuality and significant economic and interpersonal effect this will promote. i agree principally with none of this, its unnecessary and extremist in leaning. but i can stand it and saw this ahead of time as eventual. my question is can you stand these economic effects . did they ask you on the campaign trail? well . i also suspect as an independent that we will be both affected and tested. Consider those in power in government and big business who see to these situations becoming realities for American citizens , remember they live in mansions and have generational wealth. they can lose billions and withstand it. They will not now or ever feel the effects of their poorly thought through actions. we will. we will have to. I'll never ask anyone to do something i wont.i suspect our leading majority which i came from formerly up until this point wont balance this situation. keep that in mind.

Is everybody a czar now? But he has made good points

Of course trudeau talks a bunch of shit. LIAR!!!! ALL LIES!!! He has never spent a day in toronto where i live and fentynol is taking over! Homelessness everywhere. Drug users taking over playgrounds and transit systems. Ugh i hate him!!! Trump is looking after his country and all trudeau wants to do is point more fingers and make americans hate their own president and spreading lies and propaganda again! Hes a LIAR

We can only assume at this point ? Republicans who enable Trump do not support our allies.

I wish I could be Canadian at this point...drowsy donny has no clue what he's doing ?...most of us don't want this either...this is beyond insanity.

The USA: Canada's 11th province? As a US citizen, I believe that this would be an improvement at this point.

Brit here!! Well done Canada! We stand with you ??.\nBrilliant speech. Straight to the point, and honest.\nWe dont align ourselves with dictators and enemies! \n?? ?????????

Strong speech of Trudeau! We Europeans feel you and we are totally with Canada. \nHowever, I guess there is no point anymore speaking reasonable arguments to someone who simply lost all resonableness. The ones behind him (voters) are blinded by the lies and false arguments they now believe in. \nUnfortunately this all will cause an unparalel loss of economic growth for everyone, ALSO for the americans themselves. In addition, the world peace balance will badly loose its balance and can end up quite uggly.

Hey if it makes you feel better Canada, the DOW dropped 1000 points in 24 hours and is still dropping. Dumb dumbs are going to blame dems and Biden maybe even Obama for that.
