I wish to heck American journalists would figure out how to pronounce Fentanyl. It is NOT fen-ta-nol. It's fen-te-nyl. Get it straight. You are professionals.?

I’m a canadian and I wish the prime minister would stop talking out his a** and actually help stop illegal immigrants from stealing our jobs

Good for you Prime Minister of Canada ??, I wish I still had relatives in Canada, then I would have gone there for a very long visit w/them ❤

i wish americans would stand with americans.

I wish Trudeau would stay now lol his approval must be at an all time high.

I wish he would not say US. But Drumpf. I DO NOT ALLY WITH RUSSIA, NOR DO I CONDONE THE TARRIFFS ON OUR ALLIES (OLD ALLIES).

I wish they would stop saying “they” it’s trump and trump and Elon only not ALL OF US! I promise you i did not vote for this crappy man

Bravo! So proud of our PM! I wish he would stay on as our PM for another 4 years. He speaks intelligently, eloquently and straight from the heart unlike the immature Orange Monster who speaks in a kindergarten level.

I wish they would stop feeding Trump's EGO, the man has never said anything with comprehensive intelligence. If you think so, tell us when??

I only wish all the Americans that stand with Canada now would have stood at the polls and voted against Trump.

Wish Canada would open its doors to those of us wanting to leave here. \nThat did not vote for this.

I didn't vote for him. I stand with Canada. I wish that they would impeach Trump. Everything Trump says is a lie.

I dont like this at all.i wish trump would stop going after canda.?

Canada and Mexico have always been family, as well as UK and Europe close friends and allies. Trump is by far the daftest president in the history of our nation, he’s destroying our economy and the well-being of the American people. All he’s doing is making the rich richer and getting rid of the middle class making families struggle. \n\nSo much for the equality and prosperity of our country. \n\nI really wish President Zelenskyy would not sign over any mineral l rights to the Ukraine. I felt embarrassed and completely appalled as an American for the treatment that he received. \n\nThe duped people who voted for Trump are now getting what they deserve. This presidency is not America first. \nThis presidency is about Trump and his friends changing all the laws for their own benefit lining their pockets.

I wish TRUMP WOULD HAVE CLASS LIKE HIM , he is so hateful towards his own ppl but love RUSSIA ?????????????

I wish my state (Michigan) could secede and join with Canada. I for one would be a lot happier.

First: sorry for my bad english. It is not my First language. \n\nThis speech was remarkable. No lies, no BS, just the facts. Wish we would here the same out of the White House. \n\nAs a german who knows about german history and how everything started back then I'm terrified how fast the United States of America are moving towards a dictatorship.\n\nEvery politician around the free world should be worried about what is going to happen if DT keeps doing what he is doing, which is undermining every treaty and contract the US is having with the rest of the world.\n\nAnd on a personal note: as a child I always dreamed of someday moving to the USA. After beeing there on holiday in 2017 and also driving to Canada to visit some friends, that dream changed.\n\nDon't get me wrong, I still love your country, but you elected the worst President for the second time! WHY??? You could have known what it would be like, everything was reported on by this network and many others.\n\nAs one commentator said: this is not going to end well. And I and most of Europe and the rest of the world are thinking the same and we are afraid of the things to come.

Drumpff is antithetical to progress. He is a cancer on our world. I just wish the Democrats would actually start fighting this BS with all means at their disposal. For all the MAGA out there I hope you enjoy what you wrought. It’s not liberal tears, it’s nationwide suffering. WE PAY FOR TARIFFS!!!!! Look up how well Smoot-Halley affected the country. Ttump (sic) has been self-dealing since I heard of him in the 70’s. He played on your fears & you bought his lie. To quote P.T. Barnum, “A sucker is borne every minute.” One of the primary things I impart to my kids is to not trust a salesman!!!!

Wish my own U.S. government would protect the hard working federal employee!

Yet Canada hates him right now, Just as much as all of you hate Trump. Trump never said he sided with Russia and I really wish all of you dimwits would donate your personal money, or personally volunteer to step on the front lines. They have no manpower and y'all are idiots to think that it makes sense to give a country backing after they're the ones who threaten to join NATO and clearly most of y'all don't even know that NATO started this bullshit by going against their promises to Russia and they have added eight former Soviet countries to their union. At this point I'm okay with giving half of the US to the libtards So you guys can pay taxes to fund every other country but your own. Yuck.

I wish he would say the Trump administration instead of America. Because none of this is the real America. Edit: I do support Canada in their response.

Can someone explain to me, why this cool guy will step back from his job? He can talk in such a clear way and with a good message and with empathy. I wish he would stay from what I hear from him (but I am not canadian)

We live in America /hate America and would rather be somewhere else..preferably Scotland.I wish that this guy was our President.

I wish CNN would just let the press conference go without the reporters ruining it with commentary

As an American I wish you would rule us. you’re the leader I would rather have over felon trump.

Let's go maga lmfao. You morons wish you would have biden back in office.

I’m glad a foreign leader came out and spoke to MAGA directly. Ask other Americans speaking them has not worked. I wish more would do the same

I wish Canada would make us a new province

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.

This jerk is making a big mistake. If I were trump I would spend the next 4 years manufacturing everything Canada imports and wish them luck?

Trudeau became a raly good politician.. confident. I like him, wish more were like that. Cheers to Canada from EU. Who would think US will side with Russia

All I got to say is i wish Trudeau's father was in power right now, then the amaricans would be eating all the crow they made.

I wish Canada would take me in... i hate the USA

I wish somebody would pshroom psshroom trump already so sick of him and the whole team… this is a shameful time to be American

Maybe building a Boarder Wall on America's Northern Boarder would be a good idea. Canada is responsible to guard our boarders and allow in only those who we feel qualify. Canada does not close it's boarders to those who wish to leave, nor does the United States close it's boarders to those who wish to leave. The United States is free to put up a wall and a boarder crossing anywhere you wish, stop whoever you want to stop from entering your country. I can tell you that The fastest Boarder Wall that I have ever seen go up is the one that Trump just raised between the United States and Canada, the Tariff Wall. What you have done is put signs on our shelves, buy Canadian. You have taken American Product from the top shelf, to the verry bottom shelf, behind the Made in China. You have closed the Travel Agencies to United States travel, nobody wants to go to your country, and I heard that there is going to be a 250% Tariff on hotel accommodations for Americans visiting Canada. It is not only about the Tariffs on Canada, who Used to be your friends, it is about your new friend Russia, who support Terrorist organizations all over the world, including the ones in Gaza who held Americans Hostage, who supports IRAN who supports Russia in murdering and raping women, kidnapping children in Ukraine, torturing and murdering citizens with their hands tied behind their backs. If this is what America supports, if this is what America does to its Ally's, I hope the taps for the oil and the switch for the electricity are turned off, and we never have to worry about each other ever again.\n\nCanada is a country with an Area roughly the size of the United States, with a population 340 Million is 8 1/2 times larger than Canada at $40 Million, with a GDP 9 1/2 times larger than Canada. America is a Bully.

We in the uk will stand with our Canadian brothers but we wish our American friends would stop this nonsense we all all supposed to be allies did America forget already who stood firm with them after 9 11 yes the uk and Canada our troops died alongside Americans and we didn’t want anything in return, come on America this is not you

American here impressed by Canada's response! I didn't vote for the monster in the oval office. I wish our country would wake tf up.

I wish a foreign leader would call Donald J Trumps second administration exactly what it is. F*CKING CRAZY. We have let one 78 year old man literally single handedly destroy 8 decades of global cooperation and partnerships. My country has invited its own demise, but for the life of me I don't understand why or how we have fallen soo far in just 1 month

American here, I’m with you Canada! I’m sorry this is happening. I wish this would all just get better.

I love you Justin! I wish you would rerun! You hardly had a chance to get your foot stuck in. ❤

As a Brit, I wish our own PM would stand up to Trump and the United States like the Canadians have just done

I wish people would call trump what he is; a bully.

I wish we had leaders who led like this. Would a kind Canadian come kidnap me please? You don't have to keep me, but please get me out of here. ?\n\nIn all seriousness, I'm ashamed of my president AND my country. I'm thankful, tho, for those who are willing to stand up to the wannabe king. Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine - we're sorry and we're rooting for you!

I really wish canada would take michigan!!!

My greatest respect to Canadas Prime Minister. He spoke out. I wish european politicians would use such a clear language.

I wish our European leaders would be like him

The reason for this is Trump wants industry back in the US, and as long as people buy things from outside of the US cheaper, that's not going to happen. Thus the tariffs. That's what they're for, protectionism. Why he pretends it won't be bad for americans or that they won't be paying more for products, I don't know. Perhaps his way of preparing people for bad times. Or the wishful thinking bit he swears to. Whatever. But what sane person would build up an industry predicated on Trump being consistent and willing to stay the course? An industry that would fall apart like it's 1920 the moment tariffs end? I predict noone.\n\nI have some experience with Clark, he was an insightful man during his command in Europe. It should be concerning when he can't see a reason for these actions, for cozying up to Putin and alienating allies. There's no end goal here that is in the US' interest. Trump's cabinet is not interested in this sort of thing, they are domestic dilettantes. There is no 4D chess. So what is the deal? Is it just his anger at Zelensky for not investigating Hunter Biden during the election? It seems... a bit too much for that, despite Trump being known as extremely spiteful.

I wish he would stay as PM

I wish the people who need to hear this would listen.\n\nIn the meantime, Trump is going to try and chop down our national forests to make up for the lumber shortage.

This is phantastic. This is a harsh and direct response! I would have wished that the German (almost Ex-) chancellor Scholz would have reacted the same way after Putins attack on Ukraine in 2022. Dangerous moves need immediate and harsh responses ! Trudeau is a very good president!
