As a Canadian, I may not have agreed with everything Trudeau has done in the past 9 years. However he’s handled this American threat with class and dignity and I’m proud of our response. American/Canadian relations will never be the same. After all of this is over, there is a lot of apologies and healing that has to happen before we can even start thinking about rebuilding this relationship.

I apologize as an American,I didn't vote for that lunatic...we LOVE Canada.\n#imprisontrump.

It is difficult to be an American right now and I apologize to all Canadian's for this non sense. I am sorry and stick to your guns!

As an American I humbly apologize to our Canadian friends. This is beyond embarrassing and uncalled for. ?

Dear Canadians, Americans love you! Our heart is breaking. Why can’t we have a president with manners and dignity?\n\nAs a Daughter of the American Revolution and a veteran I want to apologize for my country. \n\nI’m not sure how everyone can be so fooled by this man who I knew was a lecherous thug the first time I saw him back in the 90s. When he was dying to sit at Elaine’s table, but she wouldn’t have him. Everyone knows he’s scum.

I am American and as an independent i truly apologize ,and im ashamed in out elected leader and the incapable cabinet . i did not vote for him and i hope we can get control of our house again from this nuthouse i wish u well and hope that we can all get through this together instead of allowing him to continue to decide. And also i want to give Justin Trudeau the credit of a great speech. Its a breath of fresh air. I stand with everyone whos on the side of right and just peaceful interactions.

As an American, I want to apologize to Canadians for this completely unnecessary crisis. tRump (aka Krasnov) is obviously working with Russia to dismantle the US. Thank you for standing up to this egregious violation of the Oath of Office and the trust of the American people (not that I ever trusted this traitorous mob). I applaud your actions!

I almost feel like I need to apologize to the world for the moron that is in the White House. It’s sad when you’re ashamed to be an American.

I'm American and I sincerely apologize to the Canadian government and people for the actions of the Kremlin stooges currently in the White House. 100% support for you!

I hope all the Maganuts and die-hard Republicans that bend a knee to a despicable wannabe tyrant Commander in Cheats, who only shines in one color, Orange, feel the pain of voting for a liar and cheat when these stupid tariffs come stumbling down on businesses that support EL Pendejo. This piece of Dongbeetle fodder does not represent all Americans, and for that, I wholeheartedly apologize to our Canadian friends. Our elected buffoon wants every one to kiss his feet like his hand picked minions, unlike Zelensky, who told him to take a long walk off a short pier.

Most Americans stand with Canada ?? we apologize for our president who suffers from ‘LDS’ he’s just a said pathetic human do what you must. Do not be bullied by a little man like Trump smack him down.

It's sad that Donald Trump, the president of the United States of America need other men to make him look so-called strong! The United States of America is a Latin stock and I want the rest of the world to know that the American people did not vote for this, do not want this, and to be honest with that we do not want Donald Trump in South Africa can take Elon Musk back because we don't want him either, actually emblemas can go f*** himself! We apologize to the Ukraine president, to Mexico president to the Canadian president, and all the leaders that have been allies to the United States of america, I'm speaking on behalf of every sane American care in the United States of America please accept our apologies and don't judge us so harshly because we didn't want this at all?

Dear prime Minister Trudeau, As an American, I sincerely apologize that we have such an idiotic president.

I am an American. I want to apologize for our idiot president. With luck he will be gone soon. America loves Canada. Trump just likes to hurt people and break things fo his boss, Putin.

Trump is making all sane Americans side with countries other than our own. We absolutely suck right now. We should be apologizing daily for what you-who-voted-for-this did to our credibility as a national ally.

American here. Those of us who aren’t part of the Trump cult apologize so badly for this. We hate this. We are heartbroken to see our country kick its allies to the curb and be a bully to impress Putin and Russia. And we are afraid of what’s to come. Please teach Trump and MAGAs a lesson in both economics and what it means to be an honorable good person again.

Keep your head up Canada !! Sending love from America, and on behalf of all americans, we apologize for this mess. Allies today, tomorrow and forever

My country has entered an embarrassing period of time. We will resolve this, but it will take time. In the meantime, please know that the problem is our president, not our people.

We are not seeking everyday Americans to apologize but push their representatives to do the right thing.

As an American, my deepest apologies to Canada… rump only received 49% of the national vote.. so likely the majority of Americans hate this ??‍♂️

Like the vast majority of Americans, may you know that my husband and I feel the same way as you, Prime Minister Trudeau! We are appalled and disgusted with the catastrophic damage that our government is causing to our dear allies, and it grieves us deeply that Putin is being treated with respect while we are literally stabbing our loyal, long-standing allies in the back. I have no words to convey our absolute horror in the face of such disrespectful, disgusting, and dangerous behavior! Our sincere apologies, and may God have mercy on all those souls who have already paid the highest price for these selfish, power - driven decisions!

Mr. Trudeau thank you for apologizing to us the American citizens for this trainwreck our narcissist evil monster not leader has caused since his first day in office
