? I'm embarrassed to be an American, where everything has a feeeeee ?

I’m glad he spoke to the American people people again, it’s important they have the truth said from others besides the American Democratic Party; the Trump base are constantly constantly being lied to and gas lit by that administration and Republican Elected Officials :

That part of this song “I’m proud to be an American” went cold. Half of us “Americans” voted for this. We were warned and informed on their plans because of our own insecurity on certain issues blinded us on the bigger picture. I stand with Canada and Mexico etc I’m ashamed and appalled but what’s happening something has to be done…. Getting played is an understatement…

I'm so ashamed to be American right now, especially after the Zelensky meeting & now the tariffs. These leaders are going to destroy our country & relationship with our allies.

I’m an American and would never vote for Trump. I hope the tariffs that Canada, Mexico and China crush our economy so his cult will see what a moron he is. This will hurt me as well but it has to be done.

For the first time, I'm ashamed and embarrassed to be an American. Trump does not speak for me. I ask Canadians and Mexicans to stand firm against tyranny, no matter where it comes from.

I'm American and I didn't vote for Trump. He needs to be impeached and removed from office.

I’m an American standing with the USA…

Well, I’m with you Canada, unfortunately many brain dead Americans voted this orange traitor into office for the next four years and now we’re stuck with him. ??‍♀️????

Im American, And I must say, Get'em Justin!...I'm all for whatever!...they throw at The orange turd!

I’m American. Never voted for the MAGA party - it’s all too obvious. Sickening by the way Zelenskyy was treated in our White House - TRump and Vance looked primitive and devolved when they desperately tried to look “strong”. We stand with democracy.

D: I'm sorry to be an American

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.

I’m ashamed to be an American as of late.

American here who voted against Trump in 2020 and 2024… I’m so sorry on behalf of my country. Dark times are truly ahead.

I'm an American who supports Canadian Premiere Trudeau. ??

I’m American but I stand with Canadian and Ukrainian ??

I'm an American standing with Canada and Ukraine.

Great speech! As an American, I'm on Canada's side in this fight. The American tariffs should not have been implemented. Their purpose is to hurt both countries, to soften us up for Russian dominance.

I'm an American, and I support Canada in doing what they have to do to push back on trump/Republican insanity. I know as a senior on social security that I will be hurt by the push back. I will eat less and drive less, but I don't care -- Canada is doing the right thing.

i m stunning american people accept are allied whit russia... russia are a terrorist state, whit a war criminal as president... what happen in USA? Now all country around the world think we can t trust USA!

American here…. Aaaaaagghhh!!!! It’s insanity here!!!! ??I’m so sorry to Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, Europe ?

I agree with him and I'm American

I'm ashamed for my American friends. Hats off to Russia 's intelligence services for managing to get an asset at the top of the American political system. West -Russia 0-1

I’m an American who’s standing with Canada ?? and Ukraine ??

I'm not American. I grew up hearing lots of hate bout USA cuz the US doesn't exactly have a good rep in foreign policies - always bullying other nations, starting wars for oil etc. but I've always preferred USA not just for the world order it brings, it allows different voices, criticism & scolding towards its leaders compared to China, Russia & North Korea. \n\nin the US, you can talk bad bout politicians in power, or probably make movies bout these kind of things like US invading other countries for oil, or testing out some cruel AI military robots on humans (movie name: Monsters of Man), & you won't be persecuted. but after looking at a bunch of executive orders Trump has signed, the way he (& JD Vance) treated Zelenski & Canada, I don't know if I still feel the same bout USA anymore.\n\nif USA doesn't wanna continue spending on Ukraine, perhaps USA shouldn't have sweet talked Ukraine into denuclearization thru the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. that's what you get for mendling with other countries' affairs. by stopping US aid & wanting a new mineral deal, Trump's refusing to follow the Memorandum (I added this sentence thru edit as I can't reply to the comment below).\n\nunderstandably, US & UK don't need to deploy troops in Ukraine as the security assurance in the memorandum wasn't clearly defined, but it also didn't mention that Ukraine should pay the US back financially, nor any mineral concessions. \n\nTrump always wanting a purely 1 sided deal will only isolate USA from more allies.

Trudeau is a leader. Trump is a follower of Putin. I'm so sorry, Canada. This isn't what most Americans want. Trump is a shame, and he won't last.

Trump and Putin both want and need Canada for the simple reason of the Arctic melts. Ships can now travel that pass. Trump is known, and I'm surprised the media doesn't bring it up, to have financial ties to Russia as an American citizen even well before 2016. What kind of blackmail from Russia would make Trump totally sell out his country.

President Trudeau-I’m an American. We live paycheck to paycheck. We didn’t vote for Trump & the GOP. The Republican Party has been doing everything it can to destroy America & the hard working people that keep it running, for years. They’ve finally succeeded. It’s an evil party, filled with vile,malicious assholes. But even though we won’t be able to afford many more things anymore, I greatly admire & appreciate you & your country standing up to Trump. If only more of our own ppl would have done that, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

As an american... I'm so very sorry ? Trump is a criminal and a fascist. I'm so sorry.

I’m guessing because Trump has never had any real friends in his entire life..he won’t all Americans to have any either…? the upcoming Christmas is going to be a sad one for a lot of people. America needs a champion..and soon ??

As an American, I’m happy Canada didn’t just back down

I am in tears every single day watching this administration do what they're doing....? I'm an American and I am proud of our country but I am not proud of what's happening right now In this administration? It's absolutely horrific undemocratic cruel Idiotic stupid ridiculous Narcissistic..... I am in tears watching this I can't believe this is happening?

I’ve commented another feeds, but good for you, Trudeau! As an American, I can’t express to you how disgusted I am with what’s happening. I voted against our current administration and I’m out in the streets to try to stop what’s happening. This is disgusting, good for you for fighting back! We’re going to feel a tear in the state, but our leaders need to understand that there are going to be consequenceswhen it comes to treating people like less than human.

I'm so embarrassed to be an American right now. Canada, you are a class act, and there are so many of us here in the USA that are truly sorry for the shameful behavior of our UNELECTED President Musk and his side-piece Trump.

Didn't Trump originally sign off the treaty he doesn't like, maybeI'm missing something. England here, questioning if our intelligence agencies should cut ties with the American agencies at the moment.

I'm American...and I wish canada would put a 500% tariff on America..yes we would suffer but somebody needs to stand up to the bullies...lol the American govt doesn't care about fentanyl ..

I'm an American. And I stand with Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, and all of our European allies. I do not stand with my president and my government. I'm sorry Canada. I didn't vote for this.

I'm a Daughter of the American Revolution and Native American. I stand with our allies. We support ? you Canada ?? ??

This American wants to say: I'm sorry. Most of us do not want this madness or any bad blood with our neighbors to the north...or even the south. But, many Americans voted for the Orange dipsh*t so...again, most of us are sorry about this.

Canada will be fine! It's the Americans that will be tariffed by many countries by the time the lunatic is done. He will burn that country to the ground. We'll see who's still standing! I'm not all that worried because besides food, which we've easily replaced what do we get from the US? Nothing we can't get elsewhere. However, the US needs our resources. The lunatic is going to speak to Canadian's later today. Someone tell him we won't be listening!

?As a USA citizen, I'm ashamed.\nI stand with this message. \nI am part of those who will suffer a homebound SSI disabled poor American. I worked all my life since I was 14 years old. Most times, 2 jobs at a time, for nothing.\n? Godspeed to us all. We need it.

I’m so disgusted as an American. He is not my president and the whole country is not behind this. Only the stupid maga crazies that can’t admit that they are wrong and that he is a piece of ?

I'm an American who voted for Kamala Harris in Illinois. This nightmare is not my fault. ?

Haaaa haaaaa ???? bring it Canada. Let’s see how this works out. I’m an American, I stand for America. We don’t need Canada or Ukraine ???????\n\nMAGA!!!!!!!

This is disgusting!!!!!! I'm so sorry that the American people voted for this madness

I'm American and I voted for this, Trump made it very clear he was going to put tariffs on, now CNN is saying the sky is falling ridiculous

Nowadays I’m wondering if America is a country of Trump and Elon musk or if it’s a country for Americans.\n\nI love America and I was ok with the win of Trump and I celebrated it! I was wrong ?

Canada should immediately shut down all electricity, minerals, building materials and oil exports to the USA. They have plenty of other customers worldwide. I'm American.

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
