You have to be pretty out of touch with current events to believe this nonsense ?

Am I dreaming or do we leave on a parallel world\nIt was not long ago I watched the handmaids tale I’m sure I saw jd Vance in there\nWhere is the USA going I am fed up with narcissists ruling our world they popping up everywhere and trump is the worst\nNow I did think that trump may have been the answer to peace not with Elon musk and jd Vance at the helm the real power trump on Friday looked week an old man losing his temper while the son Vance winding him up\nHe should have shut Vance down abit like the godfather with his son\nThe back lash shows that weather we like it or not live in a global world not a war one but an economical one\nSo where do we go well putin is the enemy to his own people I bet if you went round the world and asked young people families do they want to fight no of course not they wake up on morning go to work believe there god have good times where they can they just want fair governments to protect there interests Donald you have got this wrong big time

Excellent speech! I believe that all US Tarif affected countries and regions should seek a closer economic cooperation. The world is much bigger than the US and I'm confident that there are other opportunities to be found. By the way, I watched an interview with Chrystia Freeland this morning. She had an interesting suggestion: put 100% Tarifs on Tesla cars. Excellent suggestion that caries a strong message the US government!

kudos to PM for calling Trump out on using fentanyl as an excuse, other leaders should take advice from him and just call Trump out, Trump has no problem making lies to sell his narrative to his fans, leaders should oppose it and not let him just lie to anyone who believes him

imagine hearing your leader speak and you actually believe them.

It isn't about Putin! TRUMP IS TRYING TO BE PUTIN. He's trying to crash Canada's economy so oligarchs can swoop in. JFC I cannot believe no one gets this! You people aren't in the same park much less observing the playing field!

American here. Sad and dismayed at all this, hoping my Canadian friends believe that not all of us are on board. Trudeau shines here as a true leader- you guys are fortunate

Don’t believe this guy

Prime Minister Truddeau most Americans don't want this either, we love our Canadian neighbors and hate seeing what this administration is doing. I and I believe most Americans support you in standing up against Dictators Trump and Musk. Stand strong and don't back down from this tyrant.

These comments are from people who BELIEVE CNN.., and it’s HILARIOUS to see the STUPIDITY of people who follow CNN

Thank you PM Trudeau! I am a US citizen, residing in a predominantly red state(NC). I do not believe for one moment that our President is the least bit concerned with illegal drugs crossing from your country. I am very concerned about what is happening in my country.

The man (Trump) attacks our allies and long time friends and cozies up to our long time adversaries who have no history of warmth with the US. Of all the people of the world to attack, Canada and the UK, our strongest allies EVER. Then launches verbal assaults on the victim of an invasion and war atrocities. Trump is just about stealing candy from a baby and giving it to a bully with a smile on his face! But then has far right media sugar coat it so that MAGA will believe he's doing something good and right.

He is a lying piece of waste,ten years of of destroying Canada.\nA chess pawn of the elite, don’t believe a word he says.

God help America!i can't believe my family and I voted for this Nut Job! Im so sorry ? never again! Trump is Nuts and Dangerous, and now my family and friends are running errands and stocking up on food and praying ?❤️????Stay strong Canada and Ukraine!?

Y’all believe this nonsense ? I thought this clown stepped down

Don’t believe this propaganda!

CNN journalist qualifying Trudeau’s words as Harsh…. Was she on vacation when Trump spoke to Zelenskyy? “It’s hard to believe what’s happening” !!!! You voted the idiot in, what did you expect???????? CNN Stop normalising Trump!

I refused to believe this, but I start believing this now, because nothing else makes sense: Trump is Bought by Putin. He is a traitor who should be taken to a court of war. As he is taking the West to war. There is only one sentence. Same for his puppets and his Master Oligarch. Greetings from France.

Trump and MAGA want canada and they believe they can do this by causing a recession. Meanwhile trump is negotiating with Putin to supply the raw materials canada was suppliyng.

Sincere apologies, Canada. I'd like to say this isn't who we are as Americans, but thanks to 78 million assholes, I'm beginning to believe it is.

I wonder how much of people's discontent with Trudeau was caused by the Far Right believers.

Do you people even have a clue on how to negotiate or do you accept the first offer that you receive at a car dealership? Stop judging Trump because you're using Biden, Obama, and Clinton as barometers and America was taken advantage of during those administrations. As far as tariffs are concerned, Canada and Mexico have committed troops at their border since Trump initiated tariffs. Canada and Mexico are cutting down the flow of fentanyl into our country since Trump initiated tariffs. Trudeau is talking tough because he came off as weak the last time Trump scolded him. Trudeau is scheduled to meet with Trump in a few days. Why is that? Canada will meet Trump's demands on fentanyl and tariffs; and America will profit in the short and long term. Stop believing the fake news who does nothing but create fake chaos no matter what Trump does. These tariffs do not affect our country in any way over the short term. The only reason that the markets are tumbling is because the fake news wants to create panic when there is none. Same thing with Zelensky. You idiots are rooting for a war to continue because Trump is mean. Zelensky is ready to work for peace because the mean guy yelled at him. Wake up idiots! We need strong leaders not people like Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and Sanders who only care about their own interests. You'll find out soon enough who's making money off the Ukraine War.

Does anyone really believe him, fighting for he's people really?? Guess he forgets easy but I'm sure the people don't forget.

Trump is a traitor he's doing this on purpose he's destroying our economy and our allies economy and he's with Putin people don't even believe what you see that's right in front of your faces he's up to no good?

The dollar is and has been a plague upon our people, children and all life on the planet. I also believe that Canada is my neighbor and didn't know this was coming.

This what happens when you put an idiot in charge!!! King Trump thinks he’s the smartest man in the room when\nwe all know that he’s a moron! His followers believe everything he says!!! We are living in scary times!!

The scripture is being fulfilled before our eyes if don't believe in God you will very soon.

Trust me I believe you ? ♥️. I understand what you need to do. This is going to be painful for everyone.♥️

I believe you ?I’m very heartbroken and saddened by what our government has done.. it’s just horrible..

We don't want this either!!! NOT MY PRESIDENT!!! We do NOT believe a word out of his lying, evil mouth.

The Brainwashed Americans should be ashamed of themselves to believe that Trump is the Answer, the guy is going to tear the world apart and that goes one way.. wake up the mans filling his own pockets as much as he can for 4 years

Fox news is saying the complete opposite of this so who knows what to believe

What is going to happen with NORAD? I am Canadian and I would have never expected such nonsense coming from an American president! I truly believe that Trump wants a third world war because he thinks it would help his country’s economy. He is definitely the worst president of the USA ever!

I am so very sorry that my country, America. I am so ashamed of our country's leadership.\nThere is NO way your people or ours should have to be going through this.\nOur government is filled with oligarchs that think they can get away with these disgraceful, disgusting actions.\nI am so very sorry. ?\nSincerely, an American who believes in working together.

I cannot believe this is happening. We do not want this. How dare Trump dismantle our government and our precious alliances. Those that voted for him must not have understood what they were voting for. Trump’s legacy will be one of great shame for his family.

Please Canada ….. know that most of us do not agree with dictator Trump. As a veteran and American I am truly ashamed of our Putin loving president. Just know the majority of Americans see you as our friend, don’t believe most American’s support this….. I support Canada and what ever they feel they need to do to fight MAGA and our insane president.

Donald smart guy? OFFS. Show me his high school and whatever college transcripts before I believe that one.

The End of an Worldsuperpower.... didnt believe to see it in my lifetime... but this is definetly is the end of US Leadership... irrepairable damage... no trust anymore

Trudeau resigned as prime minister because he was deeply unpopular in Canada. He proceeded to suspend parliament while President Trump threatened these Tariffs and then immediately left to Europe to posture with European leaders. He did absolutely nothing to strengthen the US/Canadian relationship while his party set about appointing (not electing) a new leader. Trudeau is an actor and a hypocrit. Do not believe anything he says. Now I don't agree with President Trump's tariffs on American allies like Canada. I don't understand the metrics he's using to justify them. Maybe there is a real reason, but this fool that you're listening to has not represented Canada faithfully and I reject everything he says.

I can’t believe this. Trump is a disgrace

What a nice speech but nobody believes u sir you are a liar a democrat operative we don’t need shit you have that bad how long can ur country hold out sir u need us we don’t need u your about to find out. New sheriff in town buddy

Our leaders have gone insane. Prices up not down. Thousands losing jobs. Thanks maga. You believed the lies

Im actually starting to like this guy! Cant believe it?

I apologize on behalf of Americans who still believe in honor and love of country. Our unfit president does not belong in the White House. He belongs in the Big House.

I can't believe it hasn't retired yet... He just has to make the moment about himself lol

We are so stupid. I cannot believe my countrymen voted for this monster, and now we all pay the price.

For the first time in my life, I believe a foreign leader more than the US president. Sad state of affairs. The US is broken.

I support Trump on the minerals deal but I believe the other NATO nations should also compensate the USA since we provide the weaponry necessary for Ukraine to survive. It helps even out the alliance a little.

Thank god my state won out blue, even if just barely. I would feel so embarrassed living in a red state. Wait nevermind I still am ashamed to be an American for the first time in my entire life, even though I didn't vote for him. Glory to Canada and Slava Ukraini, can't believe I have to remind people of this
