What a strong, fact based response. Never been more proud of Trudeau. Trump has chosen to start a trade war that is going to hurt Americans the most. Let's join hands to support local businesses by buying local when possible, even when it hurts the pocket. Standing strong with Canada ?? . We will come out strong ???

Can't stand our Prime Minister, he's done too much damage to Canada and I will forever dislike him but BUT how he spoke here he has earned some respect! Wish he was like this from the get go

Mr President of Canada common Donald Trump know exactly what he's doing ‼️ he works for Russia he's here to destroy the United States and make it part of Russia or an ally of russia! And if America doesn't stand up he's going to succeed ‼️?????????????

I stand with Canada. I live in Maine. Between DOGE cutting critical money needed for the elderly and education and the inflation from tariffs Maine is going to suffer a lot. .

Go Canada, well done. Time to get rid of Trump the Muppet and all he stands for.

Ohh canada! We stand on guard for thee!! America you may try to beat us but you are NOT going clean! Well turn off your power and oil!

We will see what Mexico will do on Sunday it seems! Go go go Canada & Mexico, Germany and the EU stands with you!

I stand with Canada as an American. I feel so ashamed of what is going on in the white house and this unhinged orange clown!!!!!

Im from Texas. I have never agreed with the policies of Trump. I'll gladly be on the front lines with Canada.\n\nOur country has not only failed us, but the American people that call themselves American. We have turned into a bigger facist nation than Russia. At least some of them go missing for trying to whistle blow on an international level. Meanwhile, we cry to each other internally as if anyone has the balls to stand up

Ukrainian woman, whose heart is broken by fear for our Army and the people going to die without the US military support on the coming weeks and months, I stand with Canada. America, what have you let done to yourself?

What about the fact the Trump was approached as an operative to the KGB in 1987?? When is this going to be addressed? I mean, we are becoming allies with Russia. It doesn't get crazier then this. I stand with Europe, Canada and Mexico. Trump/Vance/Musk is enemies of the state.

? Canada President Trudeau for taking a stand against this two headed beast in the U.S. Trump and Musk are monsters. They don't care who they hurt. They will eat their own babies.\n\nI am a black woman who lives in the U.S. who did not vote for Trump. Most Americans are not on board with these new deals against all of our allies.\n\nOur allies are having to take drastic measures against the U.S. because the people who voted for Trump were racist or just idiots and now we're all in the same boat who will suffer.\n\nTrump can never be trusted and the rest of his cronies.\n\nThis is going to be hard for all of us but we all will make it. Black people have always had to make a way out of no way.

Go Canada ! Great job Mr PM for taking a bold stand

Sorry Canada for what’s going on. Our president is damaging our image and busy corresponding with the enemy that goes against what we stand for & morales. Apologies from an American that identifies with no party.

Not all Americans are with Trump or Putin. Many of us stand with Mexico, Canada, and Europe. Americans love their country, but many Americans are hurting and suffering and feel let down by our government. It's a circus now. We are sick and tired of the high cost of taxes, food, gas, housing, and now these tariff's that are only going to hurt Americans more.

The people of USA hear me & hear me now. Trumparse is selling the your country down a big rabbit hole & won't be able to save himself out of it. Way to go Canada, I stand with you. Canada, Canada, Canada all day, every day.

I live in America and I can tell you that I did not vote for the orange Oompa Loompa! Trump is a liar, a thief, a felon, a con man, a narcissist, a dictator wannabe, a traitor to the US, an insurrectionist, a sore loser, asexual, predator, and a POS! Please go after trump! I stand with Canada, Mexico and the rest of our allies! Nobody should ever trust anything out of that moron’s mouth! A narcissist will always do the opposite of what you tell them to do

Lol this is hilarious. Keep crying because we Americans prop up your whole economy. Get wrecked . Lol Canada has done absolutely for the well being of America with allowing narcotics and illegal immigration . Your borders are only safe because AMERICA stands as a bullwork between your country and the majority of our hemisphere . Im sure this is done as a prep to annex Canada lol . Its literally a typical business hostle take over . It isn't going to hurt my feelings lol .

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

Trump is going to go onstage tonight and lie about why the tariffs on Canada. We have done nothing to deserve this. One percent of fentanyl and one percent of illegal immigrants come from Canada into the USA. We give America a huge deal on oil. Trump lies about this to justify the tariffs. We did act on our border not just because trump demanded it but because it needed to be done. Still the tariffs came. He is a bully and a disgusting human being and I am sad that our friendship with the USA is over. He is putting Americas at risk and screwing his own farmers. We will not stand for this

Great speech, at last a Leader standing up to trump and his cronies. Canada needs you so a shame you are not continuing. As a born Brit but now an Aussie my husband and I applaud you. The Democratic world needs to stand up to trump and musk. Canadians are tough and just know that many of us are with you in spirit and wherever we live are not buying US products either. Go Canada ?? and the Canadians ?

Everyone saying you stand with Canada, please. Move there. Go be Canadian ?

Us Aussies stand with Canada Mexico and anyone else the ??? show is going after.

This Canadian could only could stand 3 minutes before unplugging him. Too extreme, with incendiary language and hate for Trump and Republicans. A woke Euro globalist. \nCanada's disease of the Heart. He is about to go down with Ukraine's Z. \nThere are alternate, more nuanced responses from Canada, from Pierre Poilievre, the National Conservative opposition leader who has the support of the majority of Canadians, and the Province of Alberta's Premier Smith.

Prime Minister Trudeau, can you annex America so we can have common sense leadership again. You and Ukrainian Leader Zelensky are true leaders. Trump is hurting our allies and most of all us Americans. Just know i and many other Americans did not vote for Trump, a criminal and womanizer, I as an American stand with Canada. Go Canada,!!!!!

When are we going to kick out this fascist dictator ?!?! We all know musk arranged this win for him and this is not what we want !! I stand with Canada and Ukraine and everything that America once stood for and the principals we were founded on ! Fck Trump Fck Musk Fck Vance Fck Thiel Fck Putin ! Where is my America ??? What happened to our integrity ?!?!

He talks as if there's no trade imbalance. Us goods going into canada at a higher rate. A good neighbor doesn't allow fentanyl and illegals into our country. The usa does not need canada. The usa is the third largest in population. The usa is its own ecosystem. The usa needs nothing from canada. I stand with President Trump and Made in USA.

Trudeau was naive, this was never about the drugs crossing the border. \nThe tarrifs were never EVER going to leave. Trump is using them as a weapon to harm both sides of the border and destroy the alliance that would unify and stand against Putin. \n\nThat's what it's about, destroying alliances, annexing canada, and using tarrifs as a means to do it.

As much as this will suck for all Canadian and US citizens, I fully support Canada. I applaud everyone standing up to our despicable Pres and his billionaire posse. Let them eat their money and go to hell.

Trump is a horrible, horrible human. I am devastated over what he is doing. I've never once given Trump my vote and I'm not a lefty liberal. I knew if he was voted in he was going to cause world wide chaos. He has shown his character over and over and over...yet a large portion of American's just ignored it. This election wasn't about republicans or democrats or independents. This election was about humanity and global security. American's ignored the writing on the wall for their own singular wants/opinions. They stand with their Trump flags but only a few of them can actually explain any accurate information about his policy or legal issues and they condone his behavior. The majority of Trumpers claim to be 'Christians'. Christians voting for a man who is a bully, abuser, liar, predator, monger of power, impedes freedom of press and speech and aligns himself with a dictator. He pardoned violent offenders and called them patriotic, spouts false information, obstructs investigations, has numerous felony charges against him and has now made enemies with our allies. Shall I go on? That's not Christian. Even if you aren't Christian...that's not what America stands for. All for what...eggs? Guns? Cheaper groceries? Or because your need for hating a small group of people out weighs global peace. Or is it because you are so short sighted that you can't even see the valuable contribution that non American born people provide this country. Yes, Biden fell asleep at the wheel. Yet many of you still believed the better choice was a psychopath. This election was important. We failed as a country by putting this man in office. No matter what party you align with, we failed. Yes, I want cheaper eggs. Yes, I really need cheaper groceries. But not over the safety of the globe. Not over the lives of the people and children being killed in an unprovoked war. Not over the safety of Europe. Not over ripping off our closest and favorite country that borders us. Not over losing our democracy and our allies. I stand with Ukraine, Canada, Mexico and Europe and the Gulf of Mexico. You should ask yourself what you really stand for.

Just cancel my Hoilday in the U.S I’am from Ireland ?? \nI stand with Canada ? stay strong ? I will go to Canada ? instead \nThanks for the invite ?

That’s the question “WHAT IS THIS REALLY ABOUT” there is something very wrong going on here! This current ?leading our country straight into hell has reasons far beyond fent! Like Prime Minister Trudeau said “that’s his excuse” esp. with Canada as we have known & for anyone who hasn’t known,they do now. Canada is not our biggest concern of Fent getting into our country! Trump wants to look like a hero to his sheep but he is only a puppet being played by Putin!What is it that Putin has that either is on Trump or what Trump wants! Keywords “what Trump wants” bc none of us want this! He is weakening our country almost daily & getting closer to Russia?! Russians don’t even trust Putin,let alone any Americans, esp leaders! Putin would destroy his own for power & yet Trump thinks he’s some “good trustworthy guy” we are headed into a very very dark time! The faster we get him out the faster we can repair the damage done! Idk how anyone supports this ?any longer\nAs an American I stand with Canada ?? Ukraine ?? Mexico ?? Europe! Ppl get ur passports ready! I’m ready to leave & come back in 4yrs!

There are a lot of people here in America that absolutely can't stand Trump. That didn't vote for him and wish that what is going on in America is just a nightmare. \nPeople are protesting , wishing more politicians would stand up to Trump and the government he is creating. \nHow can people be so blind to his ways. I don't hold Canada or any other nation raising the tariffs. Im beside myself on the way my country is going.

American from Wisconsin. Standing in support of Canada. This country is going down the tubes fast! I hope that all Americans will take time to listen to your speech before listening to the BS that we will get from Trump tonight.......

As a Brit I'm proud of Canada and the EU for calling out and standing up to the BS that's happening right now. Rather than caving in and becoming Trump's lapdog. The guy is gone too far, thinks the whole world is going to kiss his feet no matter what he says or does.

My fellow Americans have never had a king before. We were lucky for a very long time. Things are going to become catastrophic. I stand with Canada and the Ukraine, always. Even when he makes saying that illegal (which will come soon).

Love the way Justin calls him Donald!!! Go Canada !! Love and great respect from Australia we stand with you!

I am proud of our little brother Canada standing UP!! In no way do I believe that Justin Trudeau thinks Trump is a smart man. Go Canada. You STAND UP on that side and we'll STAND UP in here!!

The only way to deal with a Bully is to stand up to him just like Zelensky is doing in Ukraine, Trudeau is doing the same with the orange Mussolini. Go Canada ??

An American here. Remember that his approval rating is in the low 30s.\n\nMost of us are with you, Canada. It's going get rough but stand tall and remain brave while we deal with this wannabe dictator. \n\n#FtrumpandFhispuppetmasterPutin

My indigenous American background has tought me better than this and we stand with Canada, UK, Mexico and Europe. It's shameful what is happening here in the US and I just want everyone to know that there's many of us that do not agree with what's going on. We don't stand with Russia or any dictatorship. Now let's see how many hate comments I get and from what side, it'll be crystal clear who's who. Ukraine we also stand with you ??

Too all of you treasonous Americans, go live in Canada or Ukraine since you stand with them. You all are just believing what this man says when he could be lying. How about waiting to hear both sides. What happened to loyalty to your country?

Canada is my home. I was born here. Canada will pull together. We will survive this and we will make other trade partners as we go on. The world pretty much stands with us and I thank all of you who are doing all you can to stand behind Canada.\nI don't care which country you come from. If you stand with Canada and are a friend of Canada then you are a friend of mine.\nAn enemy of my enemy is my friend. May God bless you all.

As an American I am ashamed and embarrassed of our corrupt government. I stand with our ally Canadians. It is sickening to realize something is going to explode in the U.S. we Americans are already suffering with inflation and homelessness. It is terrible how we are raising the tariffs to our friendly Canadians. We stand with the ppl of Canada today and always! ❤

No one believes the fentanyl lies the American Nazis in the Whitehouse tell NO ONE!!! they should have already been dragged out and took to the gilotin CANADA is our loyal family and we have attacked our own familyand the tariffs are on US!! he has lied on Canada to steal from all of us to give more and more to the billionaires THE OLIGARDS OF AMERICA!!! the elderly of America will starve the children of America will starve and our children of America will be working the jobs the immigrants work to support their families and that is the plan it's in their 2025 plan and everyone who voted for it knew it !!! NOW only knowing they are doing everything in their power to fight this is the only way they will be shown any sympathy!!! everyone who supports these Nazis should be exposed every business from the billionaires to the hotdog stand should be boycotted the real Americans need to support each other now ! what people need now is constant information on who is helping and who is not!! and if the media is going to support the people then we must not support them !! and the commercials on media that show any support to these aggressors or works to suppresses the truth should noted and boycotted .we must boycott them all we cannot give them a penny and take any penny we can we must get our country back let's all go AMERICA NOW!!! we must save america

As an American citizen I’m saddened by Trumps B ignorance and diatribes I stand with Canada and the EU and any other countries who respond in kind. Trumps the Destroyer in Chief turning his back on Ukraine embracing Outin his hero, It disgusts me and makes me sick, Trump should be in jail and the Supreme Court empowers his injustices and is complicit, prices go higher Everything is Higher Day One has come and Gone.

What s little weasel! He made this whole mess of Canada & now he wants to talk tough?? How dare you, yes YOU weasel followed Greta Thumberg like a little b that you are! Just go away you corrupt piece of huey, you've never done anything concrete in your life ,except bring Canada down, GO Trump, bring down this dictator, who's decided what we can watch, hear& see, & he's got the nerve to call out President Trump?? Thats too funny,& all those who stand with Ukraine, are you willing to send uour sons to war? Bet not,but you want someone else's child to go , imagine that !! Zelinsky is as corrupt at this idiot ( Trudeau, or Castro Jr.) But ya,go for it! Send YOUR child to fight this war,that will not ever end!!\nYa all make me sick!!

I know I will get attacked in the comments for this, but I grew up in the US watched many presidents come and go, and I have never seen the country that I live in turn so corrupt and evil in my life we have been lied to by our president. A man I did not vote for and it almost feels like it is turning into a fascist regime. I think it is time for me to leave and move to Canada because at least they know the difference between right and wrong. my family, a long time ago fled from fascist Germany and came to America because back then it was the land of the free it terrifies me to know that my family ran from that only to end up right back where it was before in the future my prayers go out to every American citizen and hope that you all rise up, right and left and independent and do what you can to get this dictator out of office. He’s only been in there not even two months and look how bad everything is already. United we stand divided, we fall.

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

I am from Europe. Lithuania. I will say the opinion that is dominant in my country: Ex President Joe Biden was not the sharpest knife in the drawer because he is of a respectable age, but he was a smart politician, he respected his neighbors and the all of Europe respected him. Trump destroyed everything in one month, he acts like Putin by attacking his neighbors. We are stand with Ukraine and Canada. I hope one day to visit Canada for incredible natural beauty. ( if we Lithuanians don't have to go to war with Ruzzia )
