And yet—Trudeau taps out, while Trump gears up to drag the whole world into a trade war where nobody wins. It’s like watching a car crash in slow motion… but with extra drama.

What a difference between PM Trudeau's speech, explanation and understanding.... to that of the ignorant bully boy Trump - watch and learn Trump !!

How could anyone trust Donald Trump all you need is common sense!!! But when he says what most people think they will vote for him.. smh well I’m gunna sit back and watch this one play out..

Until we fix the bully, do what you have to do to protect yourself. Smart folks know fentanyl traffic is less than .08% coming from your borders. HE is scared to bully the real threats and agitators like Russia, North Korea and somewhat China so he is picking on Canada to ‘appear’ tough to his ignorant base that is working so much due to low wages, that there have no time to read or watch anything other than his propaganda.

Trade war is also war! Let's just avoid buying American products all over the world and watch the Tesla and other stocks crash

We are watching literal pivot points in history right now. What a terrible timeline.

Gen. Wesley Clark, looking in very good health, sharp as a tack and well articulated as always, as in his younger years. That was truly impressive to watch.

Don't watch CNN.

Ukraine 3 years of USA money and artillery to fight a war that impossible to win with his country flattened his people killed soldiers women and children that European country's have sat back an watched waffing what the USA should do \nIreland own people living on the streets with 100.000 Ukraines taking up housing with able body men here that's suppose to to be soldiers living it up here \nEurope are sitting back prompting him what he needs in guarantees from the USA \nHow many more must die for him , Crazy while he spoofs from country to country for arms and money with billions already wasted \nTrump is correct, to stop funding a war , its peace he wants people need cop on \nFunding more money to maim and kill will not make peace

All those who are transporters and they still don’t see anything wrong with what’s happening I’m going to pray for you and your delusional state because this does not have anything to do Republican or democrat. This has to do with the rich middle class in the poor two you guys understand that he does not give a damn about you. He only wanted to vote. You’re going to understand when things start happening in your life in your world and you’re begging for help and you realize that this person sees you in need of help and they won’t help you Then you’re gonna realize he used you but until your world comes crumbling crashing down you’re not gonna understand so sit back enjoy this ride and watch your life. Crumble everything you work for will be gone. All your hopes and dreams will be gone after his presidency is over after this. You know how long it’s gonna take for us to come back from this hell we might even be rule by Russia everybody ready for that I don’t think so. They’ll be no democracy in this country no longer you will do what is told of you or you will suffer consequences they will be fatal so wake up get a grip on what is happening in reality right now you wanna look at him like he’s God he’s king. I don’t see him as a present. I see him as a fucking problem. He thinks he’s solving problems. He is creating chaos and more problems. When this is over we’re not even gonna be able to fix this shit it’s gonna take decades hell these people may not even wanna do business with us ever again we gonna be a third world country And everybody else around us gonna be thriving.?

And nobody's dumb enough to think that this is a short-term fix gas prices are up 70 cents a gallon mostly everywhere let's see who pays for that oh yeah that's right US citizens supposed to fix food prices not up 30% by the way this is all on Trump's watch right oh yeah that's right like I said both sides are liars that's why I'm independent proud of it we put people in office are we take him out of office in the next vote he doesn't care cuz this is his last Rodeo but don't think an impeachment wouldn't be on his record again

I am shocked and dismayed at the calm in this female reporters voice, as if, just another day at the WH. PLEASE TELL IT LIKE IT IS. We have a criminal psychopath in the WH who is ruining our GOOD relationships....BECAUSE HE CAN. He's NUTZ. IMPEACH HIS SORRY ASS NOW! How many crimes does he have to commit before someone does something. Why are sitting and watching the destruction of our country? Find a good protest...I'm sure they need us all. I know I do. I need the family of man to stand up to this crazy monster in the WH....throw his ass out. Pick him up and removing him. If we only had the 'cojones'.

Soy boy Trudeau better watch his step. Don’t poke the bear. You won’t win!! Trump is a chess player. Trudeau, you’re a checkers player! Stop the drugs coming across your border!

You idiots at CNNo use the word blistering, like you are a Canadian! AS long as CNNo keeps showing your true colors of loyalty, WE AMERICANS NEED TO CONTINUE TO NOT WATCH UNTIL IT GOES AWAY!! I know it's hard to run a network without your kickback money!! And with only brainwashed viewers, there is nothing left for you to report!! CNNo you have no CREDIBILITY!!!!!

All bark no bite - Trudeau will bend the knee. Just watch.

Looking forward to watching the Dems makes fools of themselfs tonight

Does anyone still watch cnn???

Dude you’re a liberal. You guys are always crying about something. Because of it we’ve evolved and adapted to loving liberal tears. We’ve carried you guys for years. Watched you attack our president. So now it’s like that. Either bend the knee or get stepped on.

Oh this explains the comments I’m watching CNN. Wrong video

I'm watching Trudeau deliver a fiery speech, addressing Trump directly. He called out policies and actions that have strained Canada-U.S. relations, emphasizing the consequences for both countries and the urgent need for respect and cooperation moving forward. We don’t want this, but here we are, facing the reality.

As a Brit I knew I loved Canada. They are like the more sophisticated, educated cousin of America ❤ Trudeau compared to Trump is like a watching a mature articulate man against a big spoiled orange baboon.

Trump stopped targeting Russian hackers. The US ordered cyber command to longer monitor Russisn hackers or to go after them. \n\nTrump ends the consumer watching agency that protected the US citizens from fraud and cyber fraud and the watching general who was tasked to monitor fake money scams like some bit coins which many are dark web money payments from crooks and money laundering. I wonder who this move helped? All of the inspector generals who were looking ok not the scam artist and corporate welfare wuuen Elon Musk. \n\nI was just hearing that gas prices are going up a dollar at least tomorrow, so you had better go and fill up. it's about all any of us can do at this juncture, is my guess. The tariffs are a tax on all of us, plus the oil we used to get from Canada is now going to China or Europe. I'd tend to say you all should be thanking a Republican. Prices up in groceries? thank a Republican. Inflation going up? thank a Republican. thousands of jobs lost. Thank a republican. higher gas prices? Thank a Republican. Don’t forget, thank a Republican, the switchboard number to the House of Representatives is 202-224-3121 be sure and call and let them know what you think. thank your representatives. Firing Veterans thank a Republican. Firing the people who care for the Veterans, thank Republicans. The cascading job losses can be attributed to Trump and his tariffs and the tariff wars. Maybe it will be a depression he will cause worldwide? Thank a republican.\nRuined our government and ruined our status in the world. Thank a Republican.

Ask your self why we give money away to foreign countries while others give money as a loan. The world needs the USA. Canada can’t protect Ukraine, Germany,can’t do it. So who will? If our allies think they can do it better then bring our troops home. Watch what happens to their economies. Let their sons and daughters be the first to go in. Let us play a support role. We used to be the police of the world now they want us to be the bank and the police of the world enough is enough.And I’m a veteran as well.

I recently watched a movie about Russia successfully breaking apart the long-standing Western alliance in just two months. The title of the movie is The Reality.

Anyone watching this has a brain made of sandpaper. Including me. What drivel.

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.?

As an American who supports justice, integrity, and respect.. to watch this fear/ego charged charade makes me sick and ashamed at what this country has become: a political scam aimed at taking far more than is given, lies stacked on top of lies and a global deception scheme that risks the livelihood of every single citizen. We can’t go on like this. This administration will destroy America before the end.

Watch me not give a fvck about what that anti free speech fascist has to say.

From Ireland, well done Canada. We cannot believe that Trump got in. Watching the US unravel is scary. We stand with Ukraine, Europe and Canada

no doubts the guy in white house is a russian agent . ignorants who elected him are watching damages with allies

Norway stand with you Canada in support, you held a good speech??!\n\nI look forward to seeing the outcome of the tariffs the U.S. imposes on other countries, which are then retaliated against. When the U.S. imposes tariffs on other countries and those countries retaliate, it can lead to several negative consequences. First, American consumers may face higher prices on both imported and domestic goods affected by retaliatory tariffs. U.S. exporters could lose market share in key markets, and American companies relying on global supply chains may experience higher costs. This could also trigger trade wars, reducing global trade and hindering economic growth. Increased uncertainty may reduce investments in the U.S., and in the long term, the U.S. could lose economic influence if other countries form alternative trade agreements. Countries turning their backs on the U.S. will eventually lead to the U.S. isolating itself. We can continue to trade among ourselves, build growth together, and watch the U.S. crumble from the outside. By the way i also respect and love the American people, just not the goverment today and how they treat others, allies and friends.

I love my country but I absolutely don’t agree with this administration or this president. He is trying to destroy America just like Russia wants him and musk he won’t suffer we the people will suffer. He must like watching American people suffer. ?

Reading the comment section of a CNN post is like watching a sci-fi movie?

The best and the worst thing about Trump is that he polarizes people. Watching the world react to how he treats Ukraine, his trade wars, as well as threats to violently steal land from allies, really lets true leaders shine! ?

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 support trump, as he is a big pharma sellout, 5G sellout, zionist, but this thread is a one sided echo chamber and that in itselft is a red flag. time will tell. i'll just wait and watch

Watch the videos of the illegals streaming across the Canadian border into the USA

Build a wall, Canada! Build it now. We are watching The Handmaid's Tale become a reality

Do what you have to do Trudeau. We don’t blame you in America. Trump is disgracing us all over the world running this country into the ground. The stock market is down. Prices are up joblessness is up and this is before the tariffs. Maybe when these red state people can’t afford food, they will wake up to what we knew Our entire lives, watching the news in New York growing up. Trump‘s grandfather led to Europe to avoid mandatory military service. Not a single member of his family in-laws or any generation has ever served in the military. He has screwed over every contractor and blue-collar worker that ever works for him while grouping young, teen girls at his beauty pageants. Simultaneously bankrupting several casinos Trump state Trump airline Trump Water Stealing all the money from his charity, so he is never allowed to run a charity again and somehow, these morons elected him to be president of our country. If we have to hurt a little bit to get this cancer removed from our country so be it. Make America great again by praying for Trump to choke on a big Mac.

Stand Tall Canada - the World is watching you stand against another murderous dictator in waiting.. Canada must broach all avenues of economics.. even those in the southern hemisphere.. Australia is one economy.. l was born in Australia.. and stand with the Canadians... the people of the free world must stand together

This is the beginning of the end. I'm a Jamaican watching from the side lines and this is very painful and scary to watch

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

A very respectful and reasonable response from Canada ??? watching in disbelief from across the pond ??

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.

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!

Yet, a majority of Canadians are so full of hatred themselves and want to replace Trudeau with a Trumper named Pierre Poilieve. This is how stupid people are all over the world, this is not just a US thing. The Trump propaganda forced Trudeau to step down for no real reason. He let in too many immigrants yes,,but so did every other world leader, thats it, but enough for the Canada Trumpers to throw away free health care. Trunpers in Ontario just won a landslide with Dictator Doug Ford.\nOnce Pierre Poilieve takes charge we will be paying for healthcare and a 51st state. \nCanadians are making the same mistake due to fake news and propaganda by Trumpers/Truckers. Those Canadians dont want free health care anymore, they want Pierre Poilieve's hate filled agenda over a smart well spoken guy like Trudeau. Just watch and see...Canada is about to f up bad..

We the people have the power. However, other leaders speaking out against this tariff shit helps. The whole world is watching. Impeach Trump!!

It is tragic that Americans don’t understand English. Lack Rational Thought. Have no critical thinking skills. All proven by their Nation electing Trump Twice & watching Trump do Trump’s bidding… Twice. America has gone… Super Nova… with massive collateral damage.

Y'all really hate when America has a president who is more than an empty suit. I love watching you all whinge endlessly. Europe has thumbed their nose at us for the last 30 years. I am fed up. Poloce your own damn oceans! America is sick of being your beast of burden.

Fellow Canadians, and Americans too, you have to open your eyes and realize that Putin put Trump in power in America. This was all predicted, just watch all the ex-KGB agents discussing that this was a 20 year plan by Russia to divide & conquer the west economically and politically, in parallel to military invasion.
