Oh maga.. you definitely made America great again with this move.. the Israel move you made… Inspired more hate around the world which puts US citizens at risk… Great move on with that one… and the economy tariff bull ish.. made me loose 50 percent of investments… in less than 2 months… Just incredible

European here. Economist, French and Hungarian diploma, and an postgrad deg in Int Relations fro Switzreland. I worked 3 years for Canada, Fed Gov. They are rational, honest people. What you USA are doing to your allies is incredibly low. Hence, the credibility is gone for this WH, and will be though job for the next to undo some of the damage. By that time, we Europe will be closer to Canada, much closer, and maybe - not desirable-. much closer to China. No, with russia -not. Until that genocdial regime your guy is in love with is zeroed. At any cost for russia. trump allies with our no1 enemy. Get the f..k rid of him and all his people asap in the interest of you all, except him and the core MAGA sect. We see whats happening there and its no joke.

It’s truly unbelievable how gullible people can be, and I’m not saying this to be cruel, this is just the straight truth. Justin Trudeau is a proven liar and an opportunist, plain and simple. Time and time again, he’s shown that he’ll say whatever fits his agenda, no matter how dishonest or manipulative. He’s openly embraced and pushed harmful, nonsensical ideologies, including radical transgender policies aimed at children. Without question, he’s been the most damaging Prime Minister in Canadian history. Under his leadership, Canada isn’t just struggling, it’s circling the drain. That speech everyone’s praising — he didn’t even write it. It’s all just another performance, another chance to prop up his fake image. The truth is, Trudeau has done far more harm to this country than good, and that’s the reality whether people want to admit it or not.\n\nAnd for all the Trump haters out there, it’s incredible, actually baffling, how nobody seems to be talking about the billions and billions of taxpayer dollars that have been completely wasted — just vanished into thin air. You don’t hear a word about that. It’s unbelievable. Meanwhile, America’s borders were secure under Trump, but you never hear about that either. And let’s not forget, men weren’t allowed to compete against women in sports, which should be common sense, but somehow even that’s controversial now. The silence on all of it is staggering. It’s absolute insanity.

In Canada, there is a lot of divisiveness between our conservative and liberal political parties. But what is incredible is how much support Trudeau holds in this trade war conflict . While his reign is nearly over, nationally all political parties have come together (in majority numbers) for a unified approach. Trump has single-handedly ostracized the United States from the rest of the world.

Thanks to those in the u.s who voted for your orange pumpkin head president. \nYou are the embarrassing ones that make the u.s look incredibly stupid, you keep outdoing yourselves. Thanks for that, we all hope you catch the crabs.\n\n\n\nAnd many thanks to those who are in support of Canada. God bless you all!

I am an American, I’ve spent time in Canada and the people and land are incredible. I support Canada and democracy, Canadians are not alone in the anger towards the US government even in a red state.

US servicemember here, Ranger. To the Canadians I served with in Afghanistan, I'm so sorry. You cnucks were/are so incredible. I'm proud of you and to have served with you. Please know there are millions of us who love you.

Can we trade? Just for a bit? You babysit the orange clown for a while and we get a smart, kind, intelligent, charismatic leader who actually does his job incredibly well? Just for a bit? Please? PLEASE??!

I'll say what Prime Minister Trudeau couldn't say.\n\nThe US President and half of the nation's population are modern day Nazi's. They blame 'outsiders' for their problems. They fund genocide and advocate for ethnic cleansing. They blame their economic woes on other nations and attack erstwhile allies. They threaten to annex other nations.\n\nThese are all things that Adolf Hitler did in Germany. The similarities are remarkable. \n\nCanada is strong and most importantly, united. There's no question that we will get through this.\n\nThe United States is weak and incredibly divided. I fear for the chaos that is to come and for the other half of the population that are not Nazi's. This is what it was like to live in 1930s Germany.

I never liked Trudeau until now, his response to the American threat has been incredible and I just hope whoever ends up PM next does as good a job as him at responding to Trumpler and Adolf Musk.

As an American, I do not want this either! I did not vote for this and I am feeling very helpless. I am a NEVER TRUMPER. Trump is a bully and a narcissist and I don’t think there is any reasoning with this man. You have to stroke his ego and I wouldn’t blame you for not playing games with our impetuous childish President. Additionally, many are stuck in the illusory effect better know as the big lie effect. If you tell a lie often enough it becomes “true”. Narcissists are dangerous people especially when they are given power. We love you Canada?? I am so incredibly sorry.

Damn the diff between these two leaders is incredible.

Donald is not a smart man of course. But, in terms of approaching a fascist and a criminal, since Canada will be hurt, Trudeau has to be the decent guy he is. Brilliant speech, the best I have heard ever. The guy is poised and knows how to speak. He is smart and compared to him, Trump is incredibly stupid. Bravo. Let me be clear, Trump is a traitor, a bully, a conman, totally lacking in compassion...he is driven by his perverse megalomania and narcissism. He is, in reality a very mentally sick man. And the Republicans are his pathetic cowardly accomplices. Given the continued support, Trump will run American into the gourd, even risk a war to get the attention he needs so badly.

You Americans are incredible. It's not hard to believe that this is going on. It's hard to believe you've elected such a ridiculous dumb mean bully lying helpless narcissique pervert clown. ?

we should take canada yall are so incredibly worthless

Stupidity rules the USA. Trump is either incredibly stupid, or trying to put the world on a platter for his buddy Putin. Probably both.

These are incredible and true words. Simply said with intelligence. A truly remarkable leader, sorry that you will lose him Canada. I support you and Ukraine. From New Zealand ??

I voted for the Liberals in 2015 before I really knew what I believed in. I later voted for the NDP. Trudeau lost my support but lately he’s been incredibly bold and admirable. He makes me proud to be a Canadian.

As well spoken and incredibly sensible this information is; Trump and his cabinet members are the most ignorant , stupid, arrogant, and dishonest people I have seen with the exception of Hitler and Putin..........America is going to suffer for electing this degenerate

WOW!!! What a calm, measured response toward an incredibly ridiculous situation. This is what leadership looks like!!! Thank you Canada for standing up to this bully! We'll weather this shit storm together. Thank you for being our kind, thoughtful, compassionate, patient, AND polite neighbors + friends. We LOVE you!!!

Canada! Why doesn’t your president sound incredibly fucking stupid?! Jelly….

this isnt stupid at all, Trump has vested interests, it could be short sales of commodities, metals, stocks, derivatives in markets in the affected tariff countries.These investments will be carefully veiled to avoid detection by the SEC, however, he's not stupid, he is incredibly selfish. And republicans apploauding and justifying his behavior, saying he deserves the nobel peace prize should be ashamed to call themselves Americans. There is a special place in hell for those that stand neutral in times of moral crisis, but most republicans are shamelessly bootlicking this new world Nazi and his deviant lackey JD Vance. From selling Bibles to Bitcoins, Its pretty apparent Ukraine rare earth potential is probably the reason Putin and Trump have aligned.

As a Liberal and someone who votes Democrat, Canada I am so sorry. Please know that this is NOT what we voted for, and NOT what we want. Fully Half of Americans know that trump IS SO WRONG AND INCREDIBLY EVIL, we're just waiting for the other half of America to wake the ₣⨆¢₭ UP. But they are a ₷₸⨆₽|₫ lot and we don't know how long it will take. We are also waiting for the rest of LAZY Americans to get to the POLLS AND VOTE in the next election.

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 )

Surely everyone has noticed just how intelligent Mr. Trudea really is when he speaks. Quite a contrast when Mr. Trump is speaking about anything. Never once did this gentleman make this conversation about himself or issue any threats towards or against America. In a matter of days America has succeeded in isolating itself from its allies and the rest of the world and all the while China has remained Incredibly Silent.

Did you hear Mexico president speach? Incredibly strong and united with her people. Trump will regret this.

Mr. Trudeau, I’m sorry our government sucks. I promise you that most Americans don’t want a trade war, or any of these insane changes that are happening to us. Many of us are incredibly terrified of what’s to come.

I live in Maine on the border with Canada and im absolutely ashamed at what trump is doing. Canada is an incredible country and a great ally to the US, and this entire thing that trump is doing is reprehensible. It would be an improvement to have a leader like Trudeau who can actually get a point across.

From the UK I cannot for the life of me see what Benefit these tariffs are to the US and why Trump has taken a sledgehammer to the trust between America and its allies. It is simply incredible.

He is incredible.

This breakup with Canada will be used to justify getting much needed minerals and such from... yes you guessed right, Russia and Ukraine, as soon as we abandon them to the butcher. Their intentions and motives are incredibly transparent and yet, the streets are not filled with protests, yet. Disband both political parties and start with new push forward with the great experiment of a melting pot society based on democracy where education is the primary moving force.

What does it take to defect to Canada? I'm a (god help me) US citizen and want a incredible Prime Minister like you! You are awesome and you are doing whats right for Canada. I'm so sad at what our Government is doing. It's a disgrace.

What an incredible speech by Trudeau! He spelled the situation out very clearly! I am not a Canadian or an American, but I found the speech very moving.

As much as he is a slick b*stard, he is an incredible charismatic, clear speaker. And in the face of the US government, everybody seems like an angel.

It’s hilarious that Trudeau has to call Trump a smart guy, knowing that he is so incredible childish and immature that otherwise he would just not listen. Trump is the worst president the US has ever had.

Wow! That was an incredible speech by Trudeau. Articulate, measured and moving. Go Canada!

It's incredibly sad when world leaders have to call out trumps lies on the international stage because our own public is too stupid to realize them

Sorry Wolf this is an incredible. This is exactly what everybody in Canada and the Democrats told you was gonna happen with Donald Trump. You guys are no Walter Cronkite that’s for sure. 20:09

All the blame without exception was caused by MORENA AND SO MUCH NACO HELPED, starting with the alliance with the drug trafficker Andres Lopez Obrador, to obtain money from the DRUG TRAFFICKING TO BUY VOTES IN EXCHANGE FOR protection of the armed forces TO THE DRUG TRAFFICKING, using cynical manipulations of hugs and not bullets second speaking badly of the United States in the morning, manipulating the ignorant people letting millions of MIGRANTS pass AND ON THE OTHER HAND COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SELF-DETERMINATION OF THE PEOPLE, letting millions enter Mexico without moving a single finger, but letting the armed forces collect incredible quotas of money to keep the soldiers happy, they have bankrupted PEMEX, direct robberies to SEGALMEX, the refinery and the Mayan train, unprecedented million-dollar robberies, and now stealing the workers' savings funds in Infonavit, insecurity at its peak in the country and especially states where the fourth misfortune of this country directs, that allied itself with countries that are Communist, Cuba, Venezuela, Russia and China, are bringing us misfortune, urgent help is requested from President Trump

All of Americas long standing allies now have to communicate with the president like police negotiators . Careful not to upset his fragile ego while he’s demanding a billion dollars and a helicopter. What a sad, incredible situation the world is in.

Would not mind him for our prime minister in Norway! Jonas Støre is incredibly vague and slow.

I feel sick, sad, angry, and scared with everything going on right now. As a veteran, my heart is absolutely broken.\n\nWe're stuck between a rock and a hard place right now. The MAGA refuse to see or believe what's going on. They've been 100% brainwashed. The people in our government who can do something are standing back and laughing us off. It's very surreal. And very few of us have been able to save up enough to move. And moving to another country is incredibly expensive and difficult.\n\nI did not vote for Trump. Many didn't. Those who did are too proud to admit that what's going on is wrong. So long as it punishes people who think differently than them, they're glad to cut off their own arms to do so.

Thank you Mr. Prime Minister for an incredibly important and well read speech! One thing though....Donald Trump is NOT SMART!! Donald Trump cares about Donald Trump! He cares about RETRIBUTION against people who dislike or laugh at him. He is a GIANT NARCISSIST and a PATHOLOGICAL LIAR!! He would rather be BUDDIES with DICTATOR Vladimir Putin than with any allies! Trump is TANKING the economy and CRASHING the Stock Market which also includes people's retirement funds. DONALD TRUMP IS 100% A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER!!! HE NEEDS TO BE IMPEACHED, REMOVED, AND IMPRISONED!!! HIS ENTIRE ADMINISTRATION SHOULD BE REMOVED FOR GOING ALONG WITH TRUMP!! THEY ARE ALL ACCOMPLICES!!!\n\nTIME TO WIPE THE SLATE CLEAN, SWEAR IN KAMALA HARRIS AS SHE WAS THE RUNNER UP, AND FIX WHAT DONALD TRUMP DESTROYED!!!

This media platform is so bias it's incredible. No wonder they are struggling with their ratings.

Incredibly intelligent speech! I'm with you Canada! All the best from Germany ❤

I am so incredibly ashamed of this administration. he is an undoubtedly a Russian asset and has proved innumerable times, that he is Putin's puppet determined to destroy the West. I apologize for the pain and suffering being caused to your proud nation. God help us

Its incredible what is happening. After humiliating Zelensky , saying that he didnt want peace (not true), now Trump starts a trade war with Canada. It's so insane. Its like Trump follows Putin, or like they are allies in destroying the world. Is this the way to make America great? Its already a nightmare.

You did an incredible job, Prime Minister!

Incredible leadership, well spoken and refreshing to see a mature clear communicator.
