The Canadian government imposed sanctions on Rwanda on something Canadians don't know anything about, and they chose to punish the people of Rwanda for their own benefits in DRC, now that the tables are turning on them just for tariffs they are crying talking to the american people directly as if they care. \nThe hypocrisy of these countries and their politicians is on another level

Trudeau talking about dictator!! That's a freaking joke he has literally destroyed Canada!

To be honest,as Ukrainian i cought myself at thought ,watching TV at same time while preparing my dinner and listening work of air def on attack drones,and i saw US tv show about some CIA agents and their talk about US principals etc....and i felt strong phisical disgust...well i never have this before.?

Queen Donald is just pissy because these countries are not bowing to Kiss the Ring like Republican senators in congress people are it's really pathetic and sad and it just shows how much of a coward Queen Donald really is because he won't dare talk to China or Russia that way

Of course it's CNN. Trudeau, you do not represent Canadians. You have destroyed Canada and only now because of Trump you are dealing with the horrid fentanyl problem that is killing our communities. You have not fixed our health care system nor our political system. YOU NEED TO JUST GO, STOP YOUR EGO DRIVEN LAST GASP AT LEADERSHIP. You prorogued our own government, basically shut down debate and decision making in Canada while you parade yourself around the global world. NOW YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT CANADA FIRST, when a short two months ago you were pushing Canada for the past 9 years as a post national state. You are posturing and have no credibility in Canada or globally. YOU DID NOT WORK WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU CAME UP WITH NO PLAN BASED ON WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE U.S. YOU JUST WANT TO PREEN AND SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA AND SKIRT AROUND RESPECTFUL NEGOTIATIONS WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP BECAUSE YOU ARE MANIPULATING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. Just take that walk Trudeau and be gone, you have 3 more days and then we do not want to see you again.

Trudeau is tough talking when he is about to not have to deal with the repurcussions of those hollow threats because canada wants him gone and hes out

So calming to see talking a normal leader. ???

Just keep talking and wait until your country becomes the 51st state ?

All I see over here is blah blah blah I want to be a socialist blah blah blah. Well ****ing move if you're not happy. FFS you socialist love to talk bs but don't know **** about civics or economics. I've never seen such arrogance for stupidity. ???

YOU HAVE NO CARDS, TRUDEAU - THAT IS WHY YOU ARE TALKING ON A STAGE_ YOU HAVE NO CARDS!!!!!!.

Speak slower when you talk to him so that his small brain can process it.

So funny how these clwns in the comments have no idea what they are talking about.\nTrudeau is also corrupt to the core, he attended Fidel Castros funeral, cause hes his son.\nIronic that a communist sympathizer, goes to a brutal dictators funeral and goes out in public and calls others dictators?\nhaha\nAh wait this is CNN, which only the dumbest people watch.

I don’t care what no one say. It has never been done like this in American history with no president and all our presidents. We have 40 iCarly 44 president I do not call this guy a president. I do not give him the 45th or will I give him 47 I will say 44 and 46. I will always skip this guy because he’s not a president. No president act like a brat no president act like a female without no president act like a female without blood no president act like a kid without a tater tot no like a kid without some type of pacifier in his mouth and for the fact that in the first time in all our lives when your grandparents died, your great grandparents died your mom probably just died and then this is what we have as an American president and American economy and an American ministration never in my whole entire life. I seen this in part of an American history. I took the class I could I could You is never gonna find anything like this in American history until now and that’s why I say I don’t give a damn what they say. He only went into the presidency to cover his behind. That was it. He went into, not giving a damn if he was the worst he always gonna claim he’s the best but numbers don’t lie, sir numbers don’t lie Your fans might say whatever they don’t lie right now your fans are the same people calling the constituents yelling at they constituent ready to fight constituents because numbers lie, sir numbers don’t lie and it’s proven. You are the worst ever in American history. It’s proven that it’s proven that no matter what so good luck with all that hypocritical talk you wanna talk but there’s no way in hell I will vote for JD Vance no way in hell this administration would ever like recoverfrom what they have done to the American people rather vote independent Democrat then vote Republican the only way I vote Republican is Chris Cristi running for Republican for the White House if it’s not Chris Cristi I don’t fuck with no more Republicans, Chris Cristi or nothing

As a European having lived in both Canada and the United States for prolonged times, my view is this: Canadians are basically the same as Americans but with Health Care. They have a common heritage and history and this is like a brother turning evil and hurting its siblings. Trump is smart? I don't think so, he comes across as a low IQ individual born with privileges, heck he has been bankrupt what is it four times? Right now he thinks he is making America Great again but instead he is on a path to bankrupt even the US Economy. These kind of things in history often have caused actual physical War and he talks about Zelenski is toying with a 3rd world war. Wouldn't it be funny (and not in a comical sense) if in fact Trump causes the 3rd world war with his actions instead?

Lets see Trump talk like this to his people....It's hard to deal with someone who is constantly changing the goal-posts on the fentanyl crisis (whatever that is...)to other petty things. Trump is a very dumb person, who really is not in control of his administration. Musk is the real guy running the show going by what he's been doing. As a Canadian, Americans have always been looked at as my friends who I would have no problem standing beside if things went real bad. your Mussolini dictator is not doing anything good for your country, he is trashing it before your eyes.\nSo long comrades, enjoy the free vodka provided by Russia.

How is this guy still talking? Jesus Christ, get him out already!

Why are yall talking over him answering questions geeze.

The sense I make of it is that it sure looks like trump and putin plan on carving up our world BY STARTING WORLD WAR 3. Lots of war money to be made and Putin gets Europe, trump gets North America and China can have Taiwan for starters. That’s why trump talks about Canada and Mexico being part of the US…THAT’S THE PLAN. And Elon gets to steal all our data to feed to AI for total surveillance and control. This is a corporate takeover of our world and we cannot let it happen.

wait.. i thought Tariffs only hurt the citizens in the country that's implementing them? oh thats just a talking point the left spews.

Guess I’m alone I disagree. We need something different & Trudeau & anyone like him have zero ideas or ideas be wouldn’t be where we’re at. Well Dear Leader US border has NOT been safe & sound!!! And you are all talk!!! Show us the ‘Doing It’ not the theory ugh, faking he’s against cartels uh huh

Isolationist America. No one will want to deal with the USA now. When Saddam invaded Kuwait, and the USA needed to go in a retake the oil ports, the USA didnt want to upset the Arabs, so needed a coalition, so asked NATO and other countries to help, I dont remember NATO sending a bill, or asking USA to sign over mineral rights. I also remember USA talking Ukraine into handing over their nuclear weapons to Russia, in exchange for protection, wow so much for that promise. If the USA is stuck for money, why dont they go back to Iraq, and take back the 80 billion dollars worth of equipment they just left on the tarmac when they ran away in the middle of the night.

Why does he talk to trump as if he were an ally of Canada? It should have become clear by now that trump is an agent of Russia. Putin’s puppet. Trump is carrying out Russian instructions.

Wow.... Is he still talking? I was peeing for a really long time. ?

Why is this dude still talking

I don’t need Trudeau to tell us American anything. Talk to my attorney/negotiator Mr. Donald Trump.

Stop talking. Americans voted. And as one of em, I say lay the smack down, we need it.

Makes sense cause we don’t want to go to war, tuff talk from our northern neighbors we protect, also Ukraine can get funding from others, I’d prefer my taxes go to finding snails and helping them cross the road

He's still going to fold ? Trudeau has always talked tough from the podium right before caving.

Right at the beginning he gets the American Democrats talking points, Putin puppet, Russian friend etc.

I find it so disturbing that I’m gonna say this if JD Vance little man JD Vance, the guy who called himself he was in the battlefield, but he wasn’t in no battle. He was just in the battlefield cleaning boots and you know making sure his gun work and you know cleaning his helmet, but he never went outside. He never went outside and what kills me. Is people who talk like they real veterans but they did no vet. They did no vet you ain’t no vet you talked about, the guy who is running with Kamala make it seem like he lied but she was in Afghanistan or I mean Iraq or whatever you call yourself you was in a compound. I know that for fact, JD Vance was in a compound awaiting instructions to see if you were able to go out there battle you didn’t go battle you watch the convoy go in and out. You are the same people you watch in mash mash the show when everybody go outside those same people sitting inside just cleaning boots and walking around that’s what he was doing, if this guy think that you guys could do whatever is dumb let everybody know mega is dumb. I don’t care what mega wanna say you put them in front of a scoreboard and you give them testes they going to show you their dumb most mega is dumb. They’re uneducated. That’s a fact There’s no going around it uneducated OK you can see from the terrorist that’s being put in. They’re uneducated because I don’t know who that’s why when people telling you they want to bring back religion you need to bring back economics in school bro economics in school. You need to bring what really matters not not you. Let a guy who duck the army twice with foot with phony letters, I don’t know how that’s not Fraud if I was supposed to go to the army army twice wouldn’t that call for me to be investigated and be charged for fraud on phone phones shouldn’t be charged for that but you guys run around here calling out veterans and fire and veterans and JD Van saying he’s a veteran and watching the veterans go down this is why I say you put them boys back on the battlefield. I guarantee you veterans will probably put them in the back put them in the back. Yeah they probably send them out to clean the mind as you know, they used to do to the black, servicemen back in the days they used to send them off the plane knowing they was gonna die. They used to send them off the plane to clean mines knowing that they’re gonna die. They used to send them off the planes and shot them while they’re getting shot by the opposition, tell me America if I’m lying about that didn’t you do that to the black serviceman you let them jump off the plane you shot at them but those same black servicemen help us win the war it wasn’t just American white blood they died just like everybody else they died and coward faster the black servicemen help us win the war from air and ground Those Jews, the Jews they help us war to so many races that they’re not telling you that helped you win this war World War I and two America is lying to you guys and that’s what’s been the problem for decades. America is lying to the people and they won’t take acceptability But JD Von he’s gonna get the president of United States. I’d rather vote for pence I’d rather vote for the same guy you say you wanted to vote for him for president then JD Vance if we had to put vice president up there and you had a choice out of say the Democrats loss and you had a choice out of JD Vance or pence I had to choose pence, I would choose Cristi. I would choose them near my feet. It doesn’t have a name to go into. I choose my feet. I would choose somebody else’s feet then put a despicable guy like JD vans a couch hump like JD vans AAA I can’t find a white bread American apple pie woman to marry but I had to go out and use my catalog to buy a woman from out-of-state pregnant her and give her a green card JD vans hell fuck fuck noyou will never get my vote even when you die. You won’t get my vote even when they died you won’t get my vote. Good luck, sir.

I think, Canada, Mexico and all European countries should seriously have a talk with the new BRICKS alignment for a better world relations and stability.

This was an impressive speech and chilling to the bone. People should understand the undertone that this already is the first stage of a war. America is not talking friendly anymore to Europe or Canada, the alliance is questionable now at best, treaties don't matter anymore and the US government openly supports and defends totalitarian regimes like in Russia. It's a dangerous path that has a point of no return somewhere along the way. It is absolutely the time to be very worried and alert.

This is how a true leader talks; and not trying to bully someone because you're insecure about yourself.

Money talks, bull $hit walks

Donnal please learn from Trudeau, this is how an adult should talk and act. You welcome

everyone, even i remember when you block founds for Truckers who was fighing with you in Covid, it was disgraceful, against democracy...who is really bad guy here? Justin, please, just resign and make space for big boys to talk

We keep talking about keeping drugs out of America. What are the Americans doing to stop the flow of coke and guns flowing into Canada ? Not a damn thing \nMango Mussolini is the biggest loser ever

The asterisk beside all those talking points is that those stats came AFTER the announcement of the tariffs...Trudeau has systematically crippled Canada. The US has all the resources that Canada does, but why harm your lands when you can buy from someone else?...the US is a consumer, but with the ability to self sustain. Mexico and Canada are mad their best customer is tightening their wallet. It's all postering.

I like how Mexico is not talking everyone saying these tariffs are not gonna work. Mexico already sent 10k more troops to the border so this stops some of the smuggling and immigration already. Its doing something just because people up north are mad doesn't mean its not going to work in the south..

shut up let him talk

Trudeau talking about expanding EI, meanwhile, Trump and Elon trying to pillage social security to give it to billionaires.\n\nthe difference between Canada and the USA has never been more clear.

When calling the orange a very smart guy he's talking to the toddler.

Bet Trudeau has been practicing in front of the mirror all weekend for this little piece of theatrical comedy. Normal people do not talk like this. When does he leave already? Not soon enough apparently.

This is president to represent the world the way talks no that idiot in the white house you nailed it

talking soybean trudope

Doug Ford or Trudeau’s reciprocal actions against the U.S. are secondary to me as a Canadian. For days, they’ve been misleading the public with talk of imposing tariffs on U.S. goods or cutting power supply, but that’s not the real issue. \n \nWhat truly matters is how our government is actively mitigating the economic impact. Are they securing new markets? Have they repaired strained relations with China, which were damaged in 2021 over the arrest of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou to appease the U.S.? Are we expanding oil exports to Japan, India, or China? Have we dispatched trade delegations worldwide to open new opportunities? \n \nWrong move. Canada doesn't have a functioning government. There is no mandate. The Prime Minister has resigned. Parliament is not in session. There is no reason to escalate. The focus should be on finding a solution the root cause of why the tariff was put in place over the border and fentanyl. \n \nIf not, then all these moves by Ford or Trudeau are meaningless—just political maneuvering to distract Canadians from the real problem.

Cheap talk from a small man with a big microphone!

Canada was requested numerous times to help stop the flow of fentanyl which Mexican cartels trafficked that killed 200,000 Americans. Trudeau's reply is only 1% of fentanyl comes through Canada.. even though they don't properly secure the border and everyone knows the amount is significantly higher.\nTrudeau ran to Mexico to sweet talk THEM into mutual trade deals rather than assist the US stopping Mexican cartels.\n\nTrudeau should be arrested and tried by military tribunal for his participation in 200,000 deaths.

As much as people talked about Biden's cognitive decline, why is it so taboo to talk about Trump's decline? All of this is weird. People, please call your elected officials and tell them we don't want this. Hearing from you before you go to the polls to fire them in a few years will hopefully cause them to do something about the president. I'll say it again, this is weird.

Who told the 51st state governor that he could talk?
