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.

the only thing that makes sense is trumps taking orders from putin . time to drag the traitor out of the Whitehouse NOW !

That makes a lot of sense when they’re strongest ally is Israel world’s biggest violater

So nice to listen to a man who is educated and makes sense for a change, standing with Canada xxx UK

People of the US, please listen to this grownup. What he’s saying makes perfect sense.

American here and no, it doesn’t make sense. I don’t know what’s wrong with him.

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!!

This pansy is PM OF CANADA---- make that make sense!!!

Nothing Trump does makes sense until you accept the reality that Trump serves only at the pleasure of Vladimir Putin. Nothing about trade wars and tariffs makes sense. Nothing about pulling out of NATO makes sense. Nothing about threats of invading our allies makes sense. Nothing about gutting our Federal government makes sense. Nothing about giving Elon Musk every American's personal information makes sense. Nothing about sharing intelligence and giving Russia access to sensitive national security material makes sense. Only when you consider what benefits Vladimir Putin does Donald Trump and MAGA make sense. JD Vance is now threatening Ukraine, demanding payback for American aid. There are no longer any checks and balances. We've been betrayed.

It makes no sense and I can’t stand the fact that it’s happening

Trumpf is disgustingly evil. I stand with Trudeau SMH ??‍♀️ this makes no sense at all but we all know the truth why he’s appeasing Putin.

‘…doesn’t make economic sense, doesn’t make strategic [global security] sense’ Hmm, who does it make sense for? Oh yeah, M_THERF__KING PUTIN!

From Portugal Its make sense if is a Russian asset saving Mr. Putin from economic and war disgraces

Make sense, please!!! The idiots that vote trump?????

Pffffft, joke Trudeau politicking for votes. Liberals won't call a vote this is all intentional. He does not want what's best for Canadians. Vote for common sense, vote UCP.

He is 100% correct. tRump is looking to work with Russia and perhaps remove sanctions while putting tariffs on all our allies. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!!

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.

MAKE THAT MAKE SENSE!!!!!!

It’s America don’t understand what you doing you were defender from dictators and now turn on thinks not makes sense

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.

No fan of Trudeau's liberal policies. But this is a coherent understandable speech that agrees with all sense of logic reasoning. Best wishes for the Canadian people from The Netherlands

All of this was avoidable. We could have had a reasonable leader use logic and good sense to move our country forward. But no, just enough Americans willingly voted for vengeance, or chaos, or a combination of both. Another group felt it was too damn difficult to do their own research before they cast their vote. And now, everyone will suffer greatly for the mad king's folly.

This is guy is talking about making sense?? Seriously? \n\nYou’re berating trump for trying to make peace with Russia yet align yourself with China and let them infiltrate our government. You destroy the lives of your own citizens and completely ignore their rights and you wanna act like a tough guy now? \n\nAbsolutely pathetic.

didn’t think Trudeau could make Canada any worse, but man did he messed up now it makes so much more sense to be the 51st state \n\nBut then again, I live in Canada and make US dollars so who really cares lol ?

Do not forget Software usage. In my company we start plans to get rid of American Internet Services like Microsoft.\nIf access to Microsoft gets cut we go down. It's a dependency we can't afford anymore with a fickle partner like America.\nPlease come to your senses.

I can make it make sense. Putin has tRump by the curls, tRump works for Putin. tRump has been groomed for this exact moment since the 1980s...

It's not good when this guy sounds sane. I don't like Trudeau but he is making sense.

Justin, we don't want this either. It's this MF and his cohorts. They are mad and desperately trying to turn the US into a Russian state. Make it, make sense. Why don't they just move to Russia?

Trudeau is also a dictator. We would rather Canada pay tariffs than for US citizens to pay high taxes. It makes more sense. If the products are worth it, they will still sell.

I can make it make sense. Trudeau clearly wants to destroy this country. He is with the WEF. He has stolen from Canadian taxpayers. Let our borders be unprotected. I can go on and on, but will finish with this, he funds CNN and other news stations. People need to wake up and research!

He said “make it make sense”

The tariffs make sense from the position of trump being an ally with putin. trump is punishing countries that have supported Ukraine, thinking that if he weakens these countries with tarrifs, these same countries will turn inward and discontinue their support of Ukraine. I wonder how much putin has offered to pay trump if trump can strong arm Ukraine into ending the war, leaving russia with land stolen from Ukraine. Something stinks of corruption here.\nThank you for speaking from a place of power and truth Prime Minister Trudeau.

Trump works for Putin, when you view things through that lense, it makes perfect sense.

Common sense and resolve shall prevail, stupidity can’t win.

Nothing Trump does makes sense. He’s an utter embarrassment. He’s making our country look like a backwards, oppressive, “pile of garbage”. If any MAGA bothered to research is life back to the 70’s and 80’s they’d find Trump was NEVER good at business. He was good at running them into the ground. He hasn’t a republican cell in his body. He doesn’t care which party or what ideology anyone is, so long as they’re naive and ignorant enough to buy his lies and bullshit. It’s just all about Trump. Everything he’s doing is contrary to making America great. Ironic that there are many so-called Christians who support him, when he fits the biblical description of the Antichrist a bit too well. It’ll take decades to restore America’s standing in the world, because that narcissistic, bloated, power-hungry, piece of shit wants to keep attention centered on him. He’s doing all he can to keep us stupid, and brainwashed, because anyone who’s intelligent, and has any level of critical thinking poses a threat. When will the orange Kool aid wear off?…and btw, I’m not a liberal. I’m not a democrat. I’m rational.

It’s a no win situation. USA / Canada will not benefit. We’re living in troublesome times, where the quest for Power has taken over common sense and brotherly love. Tough times ahead. Brace yourself and be resilient.

???????? here,If there’s one thing I learned in university as a political science graduate, and I did take a US government course was part of my degree. I thought that there were so many checks and balances on the president of the United States, but seeing his actions, I am very confused at how he is not being questioned for his mental stability and his actual ability to lead your country I mean to what degree is the definition of treason not applied I don’t understand how the president of the United States can now align himself with Russia and destroy allegiances with friends and allies This is not seen as treason?\nTo my American readers… just remember the United States knows no better friend than Canada….. so does any of this make sense? How is it that we are the enemy now and your president wants to support Russia is he a Russian operative? How are you not removing this guy from power where are all these checks and balances that you always bragged about through my entire life ?

Make that make sense ❤?

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

“Make it make sense “

None of this makes sense. Both countries and their hard-working people are going to suffer on both sides. Great leaders don't try to cripple allies that have supported them throughout history.

MAKE THAT MAKE SENSE!!!! Yassssssss ??????????

You can’t make it make sense. Trump is a demented malignant criminal who has no empathy or ethics.

Krasnov makes sense, always has, MAGA is coming around to admitting its true. It ALL makes sense through this lens.

So many of us in the US have no idea how this makes sense, how anything Trump does makes sense.

Why are you not talking about the credible possibility that Trump is a Russian asset? Everything he is doing makes complete sense if this is true. CNN, you and and your journalists need to grow a spine and start leaning into this possibility and stop talking around it. Come on. We don't have time for this pussy footing around.

Someone needs to make sense of this. If trump tarrifs will hurt the US , why are you reacting with tarrifs? By your logic your tarrifs will hurt canada.

So we have to wait until 8PM to hear what this, I’m trying to be nice so I won’t call Trump what I want to call him but this make no sense. \n\nI didn’t and never did vote for that individual. Donnie and Elon are about to go shopping for gold.

That was likely one of the best speeches Trudeau has ever made. But he is also right. This is the most crazy Tariff War that makes no sense. It is clear to me that Trump doesn't understand the impact of his actions

Every American that I've met , have been proud , polite and friendly. So who are the Americans that Donald Trump represents. Decency and common sense can't be bought.??
