It looks like the best thing Trudeau could do is tell the world how bad he is got beat by President Donald Trump. A true leader would not shocase his defeat to the world, he would work harder until he triumphs; none of which is somthing that Trudea can do. Sad!

Canada tossed him out and doubled tariffs as a retaliation to screw the entire NA market, now CNN is framing this aggression as a good thing, just fix the border here and stop the chinese fent bomb, damn bro beating around the bush, even the NDP government hates Trudeau,

I’m glad to hear Trudeau say Canada is worth fighting for. Prior to the recent US election he’s been beating the DEI and down with the evil west drum for the last decade. What specific Canadian/western values in your opinion are worth fighting for Trudeau?

Trump is putins puppet ,orders from Moscow taken and acting according to the orders.No more beating around the bush.He is the worse enemy USA has and he is in the Oval Office.God help us all.

Robert De Niro’s statement on Donald is perfect. \n\n “I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly. I see an evil one. Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped. Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them. We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016. The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags. The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse. Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously. So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America: This is our last chance. Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator. And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided. So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls. We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them. Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect. Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity. Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world. Safety for our families. Decency. Let’s welcome them back. We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.””

Bernie Sanders would have beat Trump\nI never seen Trump beat a man?

I finally have respect and admiration for Trudeau. I wanted him to resign, but not if he can beat Trumpler at this trade war. I'm so very sorry to you Americans...at least to all the ones who did NOT vote for that Clownident.

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!

Good luck beating that tonight Trump. I can't wait to hear more bullying.

Trudeau, my brother, My words cannot begin to express to you or your people just how genuinely sorry I am for my country's utterly repulsive and inexcusable behavior throughout the last month and a half and for the downright cruel, hostile treatment you've suffered at the hands of the most incompetent, greedy, poorly educated, narcissistic, racist, sexist, xenophobic buffoon to ever preside over the United States. Not only is Donald Trump an overly privileged, pathetic, whiney crybaby who literally folds his arms, stomps his feet, and launches an all out temper tantrum whenever he doesn't get his way or when someone else has the TV remote, he is a dangerously delusional, high stakes risk taker who wouldn't think twice about using his own mother or child as a human body shield if he thought his life were in danger. There is absolutely no value, principle, moral or ethic he wouldn't betray without hesitation if he suspects there is anything at all to be gained - you know, the type of guy who would poison the entire neighborhood in order to hoard all the complimentary tampons and lip gloss samples from his neighbors' mail boxes just to ensure that he got first dibs on everything before anyone else. Incidentally, he is also the same type of guy who pockets all the flavored mini coffee creamers from the gas station and all the paper bed sheets and Qtips from the doctor's office. I wouldn't put it past him to steal the waitresses' tips off tabletops on his way out the door upon leaving McDonald's. In fact, I would bet everything that he steals the donation jars for Jerry's Kids at the local supermarket. I mean, its already a given that he is likely the guy who filed a lawsuit a few summers back against a sweet, innocent littls FOUR year old boy for having a lemonade stand on property not zoned for commercial use. If it wasn't Trump then I'm sure it's only because he was too busy ordering the National Guard to power hose and pepper spray the 30 or so elderly nuns who had been distributing bottled water to folks demonstrating in support of Black Lives Matter on the hottest day of the year. Satisfied in his victorious battle against the nuns - 9 of whom had been hospitalized for critical injuries including the 92 year old Mother Superior who suffered massive brain bleed, swelling and concussion due to the excessive force of the power hose and an 87 year old nun who lost permanent sight in one eye due to the pepper spray - Trump had the nerve to pose for a publicity shot in front of the church while holding a Bible - UPSIDE DOWN - and scrunching and contorting his face into that hideous trademark scowl he does ever so naturally. Yep. This is the man my fellow Americans chose to represent our nation as President - a man who beats up 90 year old nuns and imposes 25% tax hikes to our ONLY FRIEND in the entire world simply for refusing to accept his invitation for statehood. I mean, come on, Trudeau, is that really asking too much of you? Was it really worth bruising Donny's fragile little ego and sending him into a fit of rage? (Seriously, though, I suspect he really does feel as though you are in the wrong for refusing to humor his delusions and thus embarrassing him in front of all his Russian dictator and Ku Klux Klan buddies.)\nOnce again, I do humbly apologize and I promise I will support whatever actions you choose to take and I will help you in any way you deem is best. \nMuch love and peace always, \nMs. S. Delois Jackson

Bull crap we have a deficit with them like 160 billion, until paid keep the tariffs going don’t you speak about that you guys are beating us by 160 billion

Half Canadian half British here. Thanks for the support! We will beat trump. Unfortunately I didn’t think I’d use those words a few months ago…

I thought you were gone Trudy. We like you Canada but we don’t really need you. We can solve the problems we get from you in 15 minutes. This guy has no problem freezing protesters bank accounts, forcing people to scan QR codes to decided who eats at a restaurant, and government sanctioned beatings of peaceful protesters because they dare stand up for freedom. Canada wake up. Trudy is a good old fashioned communist. The more he fights back against Trump, the more I know Trump is right.

As both American and Canadian, I am really beating myself up over this.

Trump is good a being president in many ways because he is a business man, not a politician, but in business it's about dominating the market place and your competition, bending them to your will if you can, but when you are president, you need to keep alliances with other countries, not dominate over them, otherwise you weaken your position on the world stage. When you are at the top with the biggest economy, army, you don't need to beat down those with less, you need to keep them on your side so their strength adds to your own, which is why you are at the top. Even a mafia boss won't beat down those under him, unless he wants war, and lose his position as others form alliances to take over top position as no powerful person, president, country wants to be beaten down into submission by anyone, so they create other alliances to match or overtake those at the top. In this case, Trump needs to play the politician or weaken his position, and China will be loving this as they are next in line.

Canada just salty USA beat em in hockey

We don’t want this either. It’s too bad that half of our government is allowing this dictator to operate unchecked. \n\nTrump never cared about American families. Let his supporters lose their jobs and homes and everything they worked for. Of course when they’re too tired from being beat down, they won’t have the energy to do anything

It is so clear that the great nation of Canada beats with a logic based on free enterprise, mutual benefit and at its heart welfare of its citizens, The U,S, like all great empires is dying, come join us in Europe, together we are the real vangaurds of a free world, some fantastic world beating business's, and the biggest market in the world. A bridge is waiting, come walk it.

Doesn’t affect everything. You won’t beat Trump so might as well concede.

Bring it on, Trudea. You can't beat our president . We trust his decisions.

Putin is like the abusive boyfriend that's trying to isolate his girlfriend (U.S.) from her family and friends (Canada and our allies) so that he can beat us freely without anyone interfering.

You damn right you hockey loving idiot we already beat ya at your own game them whooped you in the fights usa ?? ? ? ? ? ? ??

Instead of making lecture, talk to the government and negotiate something. That’s how Trump works and you have to accept that he is the president. Stop beating around the bush and cut a deal with him. That’s the easiest way everyone has a chance to come out happy !!

Let's go Canada...together we'll beat Trumpistan and his Mafia!

I have seen lower numbers on bids for structural steel in the past two months then I have in a few years. They are beating my estimates. I hear everyone’s fears but I’m seeing great numbers on the construction side of things??‍♀️

Canada setup a way for Americans to circumvent Trumps BULLSHIT tariffs on your country…I’d Subscribe to HELP CANADA BEAT TRUMP

This brow beating from Canada won’t slow down the reality it will be the 51st State of the USA.

POTUS under Trump means Putin Owns The US! Russia couldn't beat NATO and the US but his slaves in the US are doing it for him, without firing a shot at NATO or US. \nMAGA. Moscow Agent Governing America!

I can't believe Russia is beating the US like this. Props to them, it's quite impressive

If you can’t beat them, join them. Trump is trying to avoid world war 3. His hands are tied..

Justin had Canadian police beat up his own people truckers against covid vaccines. This man used police to beat, arrest and trash his own hard working trucker industry.

As an American I apologize for absolutely nothing. \n\nThat being said Trudeau did good here. Id trade him for Trump in a heart beat.

BEAT IT TRUDEAU!!!\nWe are sick of subsidizing your \nA$$ES!!!

It's simple Trudeau. Remove the tariffs THAT WERE ALREADY IN PLACE on American goods before Trumps tariffs were placed; Trumps tariffs goes away. Keep thinking that you can beat the US economy, and he will crush yours.

Don't say YOUR GOVERNMENT, say YOUR PRESIDENT. put the blame where it belongs, and stop beating around the bush....

I am a proud Canadian here, i really thought that was a good speech from our prime minister and as a strong country. WE WILL BEAT THIS. STRONG AND FREE CANADA ?? ?

Canada isn't a Country it's the 51st US State. Better Hope Greenland doesn't beat you to the Deal. First come, First serve to the Full backing and open Arms with a Bear Hug included with 0% Tariffs and increased Developmental Funding.

Another gang is going to attack the Capitol, then I want to see if Trump forgives them like he did with the other criminals who beat and killed police officers, and this administration is a joke, I've never seen an aide to the president of America with a chainsaw in his hand. Salute Canada and the Americans who are with democracy

Bro just focus on canada....lmao...I don't think foreign leaders should be speaking for Americans. You're not Americans. We both know why this is happening,,,you're country censors speech,,The Trumps administration do not like that one bit. As long as Canada is led by a liberal (meaning liberal/communist/marxist/woke policies being passed),,it's a threat to national security to the United States (If a republican is President). It just beats the logic of being an American.

What are they going to do, beat us with their hockey sticks??

Sweden here. Wasn't too impressed by Trudeau before. That changed today. He stands up and tells it like it is. That was a GREAT speech. As of today i forgive Canada for the times you beat us in hockey.

Ha ha this is a guy that got beat up by Mathew Perry?!

Who would've thought the commies could beat America 60 years AFTER the USSR dissolved.

This is what you get for beating us in hockey

Quit bringing junk into the U.S.! You don't like it? Make some good changes, not stupid ones. Trudeau is acting like a 3 year old threatening to beat up a grown man.?\nGet a grip dude!

I like that line we are polite but we will fight. That sounds like it can be a rap song .give ne a beat ?

And although we are close you can beat us at hockey; for now but in 1980 we beat Russia and in 2026 we will beat Canada. \n\nAll that being said I love Canada and don’t support what one person is doing to damage that.
