This guy, as well as every Liberal on earth are completely and utterly clueless and idiotic!! Trump isn't taking sides with Putin! Trump understands that BOTH Zelenskyy and Putin must sit down and agree to a peace agreement... THAT'S IT! Putin is ready.. but Zelenskyy doesn't want to even try.. for one simple reason.. MONEY! he knows that if the war ends, the gravy train called American money comes to an end... Billions of dollars is unaccounted for! Let's put our thinking caps on for just a moment.. where do you think that money disappeared to? Billions of dollars doesn't just vanish in thin air! So now that Trump is putting an end to Zelenskyy's gravy train and has called for the war to end, for people to stop dying and for peace to happen.. that makes him on Putin's side!?!? Good lord .. if this were Obama or even Biden getting this deal done in the same fashion, the media and these same liberals would be calling them heroes! They would be up for the Nobel Peace prize! And liberals wonder why they lost so terribly in November!!!

As a British person never have I disliked America as much as i do at the moment. Trump and his administration is nothing but a bunch of bullies!\n\nThe Western allies need to stand up against him and his regime and sanction/tariff America. It is the only way, the American people and Trump will see what they are doing to the world.\n\n?????????????????

I see this like a family fighting each other at the moment then later on they will kiss and make up.

Mr. Trudeau, as an American, I sincerely apologize and I'm truly embarrased and ashamed of what my country has done ?. This is a sorrow moment and on behalf of all my American brothers and sister who are just as appalled, we stand with you! Don't forget about us

I have never been more proud of Justin than this moment. Man you spoke straight like an arrow... God Bless Canada! ??

I’ve read a lot of comments from people saying “Trudeau ruined Canada” in response to people expressing their support for Trudeau in this time.\n\nThat’s not really a great point.\n\nIf Trudeau hasn’t been good for Canada, but gives a coherent, inspiring, and professional speech in this moment that unites Canadians and others alike, then that should speak so much to how awful this situation is. Huge respect to Trudeau and Canada for not backing down. I hope one day we’ll be allies with the right side of the world again.\n\nWe wanna talk about a leader ruining a country? That’s what Donald is doing right now. Except he won’t unite us in the future with a speech like this.\n\nThis American stands with Canada!

We, Canadians, are going to be fucked 100%. Like Ukranians. Trump wants to crush Canada until it bends its knees.....he intimidates, coerces and extorts. We are living in an extremely serious moment, and it has only just begun. 75 million people voted for him. If there was a new vote today, he would still win. The United States wants a strong, loud-mouthed president who will crush the past and reinvent a new world. the rest is to follow. If it wasn't so brutal and frightening, it would be fascinating.

At this present time and in this current governmental climate, I do believe that changing a leader now would hurt Canada. Trudeau has first hand experience and has dealt with Trump and his tantrums, this isn’t Trudeau’s first rodeo. I am concerned with Trump antics another leader could be influenced with charm and falsehoods which Trudeau has already confidently stood up against.\nAnd for a moment, let’s think a little bit further out of the box. This isn’t about fentanyl as Prime minster Trudeau pointed out. This is about making life for Canadians extremely difficult and chaotic. It’s to bring division between the United States and Canada, and with Trump joking and jokes are not jokes sometimes they become reality Canada being a 51st state. Trump Being friends with Putin, with Russian ships in our Arctic Ocean think on this for a minute. Putin decided to invade Ukraine to expand his make believe empire. President Trump and Vladimir Putin working together. Hasn’t Trump said he wants Canada to be part of the USA and wants our Prime Minister to be a governor how insulting. How very insulting to the Canadian people who not just live in Canada, but are also united Canadians.

Unfortunately, our government (republicans) at the moment don’t care about us. They taking away from our children’s education , (seniors) money for food and health care. They don’t care we die just as long as they give a tax cut to the rice. I really pray that the he changes his mind. However, I don’t really see it. He’s very crazy guy. They’ll have empathy for others. At time it seems like he’s calling his bluff to everyone. hHe don’t want to give in. He wants to be in control.

Seems like every country is threatening the US indirectly..... funny people as long as things were all hunky dory for themselves they licked up to any other country and the moment they have to pay the actual price of the sacrifices made by others they start threatening them..... Castro's lovechild really needs a reality check.

This is the president we need but dont deserve at this moment, shame on us, lets do better, fuck Trump. Please dont give up on us Canada in our darkest hour, we do appreciate you

Its like a deja vu moment. Trump tariff reminds me of Modi's demonetisation in India targeting black money. Both are good as spectacle for their voter base but will give more negative impacts for the voter themselves. Like Modi, Trump will start listening to the real experts after this other than his cheer leaders but he will never eccept the goof up and instead justify and praise himself.

Imagine a country saying they will be there for their people, not just the corporations. At the moment, I am so ashamed of the Corporate States of America

Nobody buying this. Since the moment you found out he got elected you were forced to start confiscating drugs and now you crying about cuz you arnt getting your way

OMG ??? The U.S Government has really fucked up with Canada!!! This is your fault, Trump, you made it bad for everyone I hope that u r happy and able to sleep at night. The moment Trump came into office, it was going to be trouble for the country ?

The lies, the misinformation, and the senseless attacks on Canada is all we have heard and felt, so thank you for sharing the facts with the American people! Not sure why they want to get rid of this guy but he is what America needs in this moment!

Anybody catch some moments of dupers delight on his face?

Sad moment this is controllable by your head of govt . US and Canada should be work hand in hand . The Decision is bad for everyone in North America

Another shameful moment for us in the US.

Maybe if we’re lucky, we’ll get another Canadian “1812” style moment out of this, even if only symbolically.

Bravo Trudeau , we are proud of you !!!! We are very sure the Canadian Conservative party supporters are very sad at this moment but we don't care about the US supporting Canadian parties.

10:45 \nOkay, guys. When is “moments ago”.\nWhat happened to having the date and time on the screen during a NEWS broadcast. \n\nDid you stop doing that because you no longer broadcast NEWS?\nBecause this part isn’t NEWS. This part is just a podcast\n\n12:24 \nOh, NOW you have the time displayed.

I am an American who supports the action you took. Millions of us are ashamed of the men who are ruining our country at the moment. ????

Thank You Prime Minister Trudeau!\nWe Love Canada!\nWe are So Sorry that the criminal in the White House has brought us to this moment with our neighbors!\nMerci Beaucoup Prime Minister! \nOur hearts are broken!\n???

You are missing a huge point. Canada needs to do their part to protect the border. They have had done enough!!!\n\nIf it was my daughter that was raped and murdered due to the illegal crossings; I would pay more. Put yourself in the place of the innocent girl killed. Imagine how her last moments were; yes I would pay more to stop that from ever happening again.

I like how he switches to really simple English the moment he addresses Trump directly.

Enjoy for some moments Canidian coz this will be ur loss ultimately Under Trump America is doing perfectly well just coz he is against u it don't mean u guys r right U have also done many wrong n the people seems fools rather than calling Trump as Dumb

To our British friends commenting below, could you tell YOUR Prime Minister, Mr. Starmer to show a little more support for us here in Canada, he's not super popular here at the moment but we would love to give him a second chance.

Canada, I am standing with you from NC. Your leader and government are responding in an appropriate manner. trump and vance have brought shame to the US. All the lives that our country has lost in wars were not sacrificed to come to this moment.

The moment Pres. Trump threatened Canada with the tariff trade war months ago, I was shocked. How come your closest ally, a friend, your closest neighbor, shared the longest border in the world, fought side by side in ww1, ww2, middleast conflicts etc., and now the relationship starts to deteriorate because of one man's arrogance.

I’ve never been so Proud, or felt more patriotic, as I do at this very moment ??. We will survive, and we will stay strong. Elbows up Canada

As a Canadian it's nice to hear that there are U.S. Citizens that stand with us, but lets be honest, we don't want you standing with us in this moment, we want you standing up to your own leaders and telling them that they're wrong. You start doing that, we'll stand with YOU.

I maybe an ignorant on politics , but what happens when USA , well not USA but the Trump administrations has caused so much damage to the country to the point where other maybe most of his allies start taking responses such as that of Canada , and escalate to the point where perhaps USA lose most of his allies at least important allies such as Canada, the support of the global geopolitics , I Maine that scenario for a moment wouldn't that give Trump an excuse to align even more openly with Putin? I mean why would Trump want that at all who knows but he is certainly aligning with Russia just not openly at least that's what a lot of these decisions he has made recently seem to suggest I mean a lot of the consequences of those decisions and acting really seem to benefit someones agenda and to me a politics ignorant seems to be Putin ... Am I too crazy for thinking and feelings like that???

Golden age of the USA? \nTotal chaos in the government due to decisions by the most unqualified administration! \nA despicable liar sits in our oval office who is destroying our country every day , every moment. \nWe are loosing our allies, isolating our country and going on an absolutely wrong path. \nI support Canada! Ukraine! Not \nPutin.

Trump is compromised. Period. He's doing Putin's bidding, 100%. This is an incredible moment in history. America has been infiltrated by it's arch enemy in the biggest way. God help us.

I'm proud of you Prime Minister Trudeau! Stand your ground! Thank you for representing us so well in this moment. \n\nDoes it make sense to be at war with your peaceful neighbors? Canadians can trade with the rest of the world.

Trump is a Russian asset. The moment that is understood, all of Trump's past actions make perfect sense - since the beginning.

I'm definitely not a fan of Trudeau but easily this is his best moment as our prime minister

This is one of the best moments for Trudeau as PM. Well done matey.

Yes Canada show your dignity, say no to bully. The world can see what is righteousness. People often forget they only live for a brief moment, all these bullies will be recorded in history and their bad name stuck forever.

For a moment I got the impression it was his dad speaking, Pierre…

The gaslighting the world is displaying is unbelievable. The moment America starts to look out for itself, like a toxic partner or lover, the world is responding by making us look like the problem. Not the people who have taken advantage of us. We have been the world's savior for 100 years, where is the gratitude? We aren't just going to shutter our doors to the world, we are rebuilding our country from the last corrupt administration. We love our allies, we just want to help our American people first for a change! Your countries all look out for yourselves, we are doing the same for a while. We aren't your enemies, don't treat us as such just for taking care of ourselves.

Is Trump Vance and his loyal commanders in their bunker yet? They really are the most detested people in the world at the moment.

Perhaps Justin’s finest moment? Right up there with his effective response to Covid.

If trump thinks for a moment that he and putin can ally against the rest of the world in trade, or in any other way, he's delusional. Putin is NOT trustworthy and will renege on any agreements he makes, that's what he does.

Trump went against the trade deal that he made with Canada and Mexico when he renegotiated the existing deal during his first term. Trump called his deal with them beautiful and perfect. Trump does not keep the deals he makes to other countries or to the Americans who voted for him. \n\nTrump's final push in his campaign was to cut costs for Americans at the checkout, chuckling at the strange sound of the word 'groceries' to him. He has never worried about or dealt with buying groceries. The moment he got back into office, he said that lower prices wasn't happening and that the American people would suffer. \n\nThen he and Republicans began cuts in jobs and government services to Americans as well as others in the world, so that no one can trust Trump --- and in the case of others in the world, it reflects so bad on the U.S. and against any trust in the U.S. anymore. No president has ever done so much damage at home and abroad so quickly. \n\nTrump is the Deceiver and the Destroyer. Trump doesn't care if his voters figure it out. They are no longer needed.

I am Brazilian and have always admired Canada—its people, landscapes, and culture. May this moment serve for you to come together and not forget those who betrayed your trust.

Form Portugal here: Probably the best leader in the Western world right now! What a moment! Canada, you can be proud! Come join the EU. You would be much better off and so would we.

It is a surreal moment when USA has entered into a war with our best friend and ally neighbor Canada, and we don't even know why. Nobody voted for this, did MAGA vote for this? Why on earth we are allowing Trump to do it, why Congress is allowing it, why aren't we on the streets protesting, do we want to wait until it gets worse, or beyond the point of return? Trump is a madman, petty, vindictive, selfish, ignorant and totally brainwashed by Putin and his agenda to divide us. Trump is the Manchurjan candidate, planted to destroy us from within. US at war with Canada, even if is a trade war, is scandalously unprecedented and is treasonous.

t this moment the only people who can stop that are the Americans. Stop Trump. The world around will do for you what ever is possible.
