Trump has proven himself to be incapable president impeach him he chooses to hurt us!!!

Trump wants a former KGB agent as his bud?Donnie Putin wants us to go down.

To any Americans reading this: We love you. We have fought and died along side you on the battlefield for many years. When pearl harbor happened, we declared war on Japan before even you did. When 911 happened, we allowed your planes to land in Canada. We fed you and housed you. During the LA fires, we sent firefighters and water bombers to assist. You have always been our closest ally, and vice versa. You have always been able to rely on us. \n\nThat stops today, thanks to your president. Make your voices heard if you disagree with what is happening in your country. His diplomacy and tariffs will hurt the both of us. A lot of Trumps rhetoric is nothing but bald faced. inaccurate BS. We hope you see the truth with your own eyes and work to fix the damage Trump will cause.

“ smart”?! Don’t agree with that PM. Stop trying to play nice . Trump has filed for Chapter 11 plenty of times, he’s dubbed people from fake plans such as the “ school” he made up. He’s owed people money and have always hid behind his lawyers. Trump doesn’t care about us average Joe Americans. Trump’s plan with these tariffs are to cover the cost that he’ll give his corporate billionaire buddies another tax cut . Let’s not forget that he gaved the biggest corporate tax cut on American history during his 1st term and preparing another one this time around, but he’ll do it when the animosity calms down. He’s crooked as f***. And those who believe in him are completely delusional. He doesn’t pay a penny in taxes like his buddies.

Trump is not the dumbest US President of all time... He is the dumbest leader of ANY country of ALL TIME... Meanwhile he is filling his pockets with his market manipulation.

I'm a US citizen and I support Canadians. And no, Trump is not a smart man.

I stand for the citizens of Canada, but this man has RUINED your country…Trump is right! Canada has benefited from the US financially while we have payed the brunt of most of the costs.

Trump Vance Musk a Joke for this World. Split us more...lets go back to dark days...WE MUST WORK ALL TOGETHER THE WHOLE WORLD - AGAINST NOT WORKING.... HOW OFTEN IN 2000 YEARS STUPID MORONS MUST DO THE SAME SHIT AND HOPE FOR DIFFERENT OUTCOME - Take care, they wanna lower the values of companies, weaken them and then buy them cheap...tricky evil bad man Donald is. A friend of Putin, maybe Putin has something in his pocket against him...total unhuman.... pure world...thx US VOTERS wake up you vote for Devils of the Wallstreet

almost the whole world is laughing at us, I am now ashamed to be an American, my love for America is unfortunately being destroyed by a stupid government under Trump ?

Greetings from Sydney, Australia ?? \n\nAustralia stands with our Canadian cousins against this “dumb” trade war.\n\nLet us hope Trump comes to his senses and ends it.

We Canadians ??like to say sorry a lot. So here goes. We are sorry Americans elected an evil a..hole. We are sorry we are cancelling all travels to US. We are sorry Trump is tanking the Stock Market. We are sorry Trump did not get to kiss Melania on Jan 6. We Canada are not sorry to fight back with every ounce of strength against an evil bully! ?

I have to confess I don´t know much about the actual canadian politics. But this reaction of Mr. Trudreau was very impressive. As a german European I know we are together in this completely insane situation initalised by the pathetic performance of the Trump administration. But with Canada on our side, with a strong leader as Trudeau I´m optimistic that the european leaders will also unite and focus not on their differences but on the common interest to stop this destructive US Goverment from destroying the free western society.

Maga people think Trump is their friend. Canada and the US have been friends for 150 years as long as he thinks people have been collecting social security. Now that trump is in office a heel turn, actually he was always the villain turns the Americans friends and sides with American enemies. At this point if you still follow him you've got stockholm syndrome.

This is insane! America stands with our allies. ALWAYS. I cannot believe this crap is happening! TRUMP NEEDS TO LEAVE THE WHITE HOUSE! Americans do not want this and do not agree with this dame PRESIDENT! GOD HELP US!

Canada and the US have two different governments. But we are, in reality, ONE people.\nThe majority of US citizens, both those who voted for and those who did not vote for Trump, oppose tariffs on our Canadian ancestors.

Its all lies from the US , everything Trump does is to weaken the USA's relationship with its allies to the advantage of Russia and North Korea. He is undermining the USA's security at every level.

Wow Donald TRUMP is a horrible person. He somehow became President of the United States of America. I don’t blame people who believed his lies, but let us hope we can make it through his first year in office. Let us hope that our representatives, decide to stick up for democracy and not hang on Trumps coattails. I would hope they want to leave a legacy to better America and its people not drag us through the mud.

Trump will raise over the world! Long live Trump! Take care of your land for us to have it! O/

If the US decoupled from every country the US would absolutely be stronger as a whole and the GDP would go up tremendously while making the dollar significantly stronger. I hate to say Trump is right in stopped every other country from abusing America at the expense of its citizens

Trump wants to make Canada the 51st state of America but is only succeeding in making the US the 23rd Federal Republic of Russia.

Not all of us voted for Trump! I’m with Canada.

Why are some commentators still talking about fentanyl & immigration as if it has anything to do with whats going on. a psychotic, narcissistic loon who hasn't the faintest clue about government, whose ambition is self enrichment and whose instincts are sel aggrandizement has been elected to the leadership of a country where his unique combination of idiocy, incompetence, insanity, deranged maliciousness and need to exact vengeance on those he feels failed to defer to him sufficiently (or just randomly, to assert himself) can do the most damage. Sure Trump is a fascist, but he's much, much worse: He is totally insane. What do the congressional Republicans tell their children, families and friends about why they're bowing to a clear and dangerous psychooath utterly devoid of human decency ? How do they explain their snivelling deference to a once in a millennia loonatic of these proportions. He's not only, obviously and blatantly imposing hardship on the most vulnerable Americans for personal gain, he is destroying US influence and respect globally. The rest of the world now see the US as a real and present danger. A pscho killer nation from whose derangement no one is safe. How long will this be tolerated; and how long before it occurs to Trump to drop a nuclear bomb on someone just to boost his ego? We aren't dealing with a rational mind, and RRepublicans need to be told that their 'king' went from a corporate tool to Caligula quicker than a Ferrari.

Canada has always been crucial for US's economy and vice-versa. Only suffering and loss will come out of all this. At least Canada has Europe, Australia, and Most Asian countries. Trump has Putin and the fat tyrant from N. Korea

As an American, I'm with Canada and Ukraine. Trump does not speak for all of us.

I am Canadian and conservative. It is sad to see that the Western world can no longer see the US as a reliable and trustworthy ally. I hurt just writing this. I hope conservative Americans will wake up and see that they were mislead and that Trump is a dictator in the making.

Trudeau still doesn't get it: it doesn't matter what he thinks or does for the US. It won't be enough to please Trump unless he sells his country to him.

Those of us who think Trump is a whack job, stand with Canada and apologize to the Canadian people

Great speech, at last a Leader standing up to trump and his cronies. Canada needs you so a shame you are not continuing. As a born Brit but now an Aussie my husband and I applaud you. The Democratic world needs to stand up to trump and musk. Canadians are tough and just know that many of us are with you in spirit and wherever we live are not buying US products either. Go Canada ?? and the Canadians ?

Why do I feel like Trudeau cares more about my well-being than my own government? Not all of us Americans support Trump. Frankly, I'm terrified of what he's doing. I support your push back, Canada. It only makes sense. I'm glad there are countries out there with safe and logical leaders. Hopefully someday the U.S. can have that again.

Why trump sides with Putin and impose tariffs on US allies?

Canada is in this mess because of Trudeau. It sure as hell is not Trump. Trump is just playing hardball. What did all you idiot, left wing morons think was going to happen? Trudeau is a narcissist and is not helping this Country. He is increasing the damage that will be inflicted upon us. If you don't see that it is a strong statement on how drastically the education system has failed in the 2 countries.

Thank you Mr. President! Nothing but respect! You are a class act, a fine example of what a man with character and common sense should act like… Trump is very jealous because he’s such a toddler constantly throwing temper tantrum‘s, he has no respect for anyone not even himself. Most of us stand with Canada and agree with you… It’s unfortunate we have a common criminal sitting in our oval office… God help us all ????

President Trudeau-CAN YOU PLEASE BE THE US NEW PRESIDENT???? I DID NOT VOTE FOR TRUMP AND THINK HE IS AN ID*&T, and we as an American people SIDE WITH YOU!!!

CNN needs to realize its role in this, as everyone knew what Trump would do, but you didn't care enough about the black vote to listen to what they wanted. Make no mistake. The black voters held their nose and voted for Obama a second term, but when he did nothing but insult us, we stayed home on Hillary and we got Trump. Trump was an overt racist, so you scared enough black voters and we held our nose and voted for Biden, but we made it clear that scare tactics would only work once. You Doubled down in 2024 and you lost miserably this time, Double down again, and you may lose your party. For the record, there is no voter's remorse for those who stayed home.

We need to ask if there is some kind of explanation for Trump to be doing everything possible to help Russia and damage the US! This is a very grave situation!

this clown really thinks he could make the US pay. Trump is so right

Trump wants US to become a true zombie land

tRump is an idiot, no deal maker, no big brain, just a small petty loser. I am embarrassed by this president, he's not my president just Maga's president. Most Americans are ashamed of this stupid regime. Pray for us, we are going to need it.

this guy is a coward, calls Mr Trump stupid. Your dumb. Dont speak for us the people jackass

Hit us with equal tariffs. Drown Trump out of office. We hate him. The real American patriots stand with you, Canada.

As an American I can say we don’t support the idiocy that is Trump’s tariffs. Those who voted for him are about to learn what tariffs are. The rest of us already knew, but were outvoted by idiots.

Thank you Minister Trudeau for speaking clearly with facts all the great work that Canada is doing and has done it for the well-being of all.Most importantly how peacefully Canada's government has worked with the US as an ally and on a smart way.Unfortunately Trump is destroying that peaceful relationship with Canada applying those ridiculous and absurd tariffs just for money because Trump is so greedy.This is a shame that affects both Canadians and Americans.I feel bad for our children growing up in this tense situation.

How refreshing to listen to an intelligent leader! i only take issue with him calling Trump a smart guy. Trump will never do anything but ridicule and insult Trudeau and Canada no matter what concessions Canada makes. The great thing is that Trump never had any kind of plan except to tariff the hell out of our former allies. Canada is very systematic about their tariffs against US. They are using a scalpel rather than a sledgehammer. Very smart against very stupid, childish, and undisciplined.

The US folks should ask themselves why does everything that surrounds President Trump lead to facts and the fact that Trump doesn’t understand facts?

I’m convinced Trump wants to kill the US. He’s doing everything possible to help Russia at the expense of America. Is it because Putin is blackmailing Trump, is it because Trump is a Russian mole, is it because he ?is being paid by Putin? Who knows? But unless he is impeached, and impeached soon, American may never recover.

Prime Minister Trudeau, I can safely say I do not support what Trump has done, and definitely did not vote for the orange man. The majority of us Americans are with you... We are sorry. This is just a hot mess, and it is only March...

Canadian here. ??\nTrump forgot 9/11. When American airspace were all closed. We, Canada hosted thousands of crew and passengers with open arms. ❤ We are America’s friend, neighbour and closest ally. This hurts so deep. Please someone make this madness stop. How can one source of evil do so much harm and danger to all of humanity. At home in the US and abroad. His evil policies is affecting lives globally in every way - wars, disease, economic meltdown. World is f..king upside down! To all those who still live and support Trump. Wake the f..k up from your Trump Koolaid Coma before we all meet The End.

An embarrassed American- standing with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. The US may have to fall on its face before we can get rid of trump and MAGA- if that’s what it takes- I am ready.

As an American I wish you would rule us. you’re the leader I would rather have over felon trump.
