another stupid game by USA, just as they did against russia, and failed in Ukraine...the USA is trying to smoke everyone out in Canada and Mexico, and make it one big country, with maybe Greenland scoop up later..Russia doesnt wont more land, just no missiles on its border, like USA didnt want them in Cuba...This world could really be something if we didnt have these old dudes from a bygone era, still wanting to be number one in the world, when we all live on the same planet...They are still scared of Reds under the bed..they have sycceeded in getting rid of Trudeau, he will be gone, just when he is coming to life...The USA is like a rabid dog now, they foam at the mouth thinking they are the leader of the west world, what a joke..they are all liars and cheats, and dont even tell their own public the truth..if only we all settled down and acted like good neighbours, how good the world could be

Trump is a joke to the world. Countries have realized Trump can’t be trusted. He has left America open to Russia, China and North Korea to take over.

Imagine going on about how you supposedly care about the well-being of your citizens when you’re flooding the country with Indians. This guy is a joke.

Canda your country is ran by a joke. No wonder you're taxed so high

Trudeau is the epitome of what a failed leader looks like for a country. He is a joke and Canadians don’t want him.

I’m ashamed to even call myself a US citizen. For the 78 million people that voted for trump, f*ck you to hell. I am so ashamed of this country. We’re a damn joke and I don’t have any pride in my US passport. This is so embarrassing.

VERY WELL SAID SIR, APPRECIATE YOUR CLEAR PLAN AND THE RATIONAL- IT IS SO SAD THAT WE HAVE SOMEONE WHO EEMS TO BE A JOKE- CLEARLY NO JUSTIFICATIO N IT WAS CLEAR FROM BEGINING IT IS APERSONAL GAIN NOT COUNTRY- NO FENTANOL- IT IS A JOKE THAT WE CANT EVE THINK A LEADER WILL USE AS EXCUSE

Michigander living in Louisiana (right now)—So embarrassed and ashamed of this country. Millions of us here in the US did NOT choose this administration—and we support Canada in its resistance, resilience, and continual rationality. I grew up very close to the Canadian border—should've moved up there when I had the chance. Open to Canadian marriage proposals! (Joking. (Sort of.))

Can he be our President??? How can every other countries leadership literally call this new admin a joke, but we have people in our government who are supposed to be “smart” I say that sarcastically, support this madness. We in for some rough seas ahead and I’m a positive person!!

Born and raised in Canada here, 64 years old... American stuff is all over the place in this country... my Bosch D/W and washing machine are both made in USA... heck even our toilets are American Standard... and simultaneously we supply USA and ROW with high quality products that meet or exceed ASTM standards... so please do let us know how that Russian aluminum and steel works out because everything I've every seen from Russia is a fucking joke... there's absolutely nothing in my life that say Proudly Made in Russia because only the oligarchs are proud to be Russian.

And CNN u are big part of why America has went to shit. Damn what a useless shit stirring joke of news company. Just an embarrassment to our country! Smfh

Spoken eloquently like a goddamn leader. My country is a joke now

Lol this guy is a joke, trump will make America great again! Halirious how Treadu is trying to make american fearful of the tarrifs. Its no pain, no gain. America will support their own and will supercede all countries in growth.

We will not back down ha your a joke, you haven’t done anything for the Canadians you have put us in the ground. You haven’t fought for are country in years. Sorry but I don’t believe you, never have and never will. You don’t care about us Canadians to you we are a number.

I'm just going to clarify something remember when they said Trump had allies with Russia now you see what the Democrats were talking about. Trump always blames democrats for his faults. Trump had you guys convinced not to vote for Democrat. Now are allies don't even want to deal with the US anymore which is understandable because of what the whole nation seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears. Trump says he wants to make America Great American dream not for Americans maybe for you Republicans I guarantee a lot of Republicans don't agree with him but they all are scared to say anything to Trump and his team which that is disturbing within itself. Trump needs to be impeached he's causing to much chaos and still getting away with people's lives in real life situations this is not a joke. As for JD Vance his vice president he was laughing and asking Zelenskyy why was he not wear a suit what about Elon musk he wasn't wearing a suit? And when you ask another person to come from another country to the White House they are dressed in their traditional clothing to be mocked by these men is despicable. Real people lost their jobs, real people are dying that need aid,for them to shut down the military aid was a slap in the face,mind you they sit back and laugh about it.. Russia is the last person Trump should be nice Putin is not on the US side it's obvious but Trump laughs with him, communicate better with Putin which is disturbing as well. Having the power and money makes people so entwined into their own world,Trump should think about Americans first and not act like a disrespectful person he ruined his chance not Zelenskyy. Now We the people are looking at our President and vice President like the are unhinged, disrespectful, uncompassionate, and down right rude. Kamala,Tim warned everyone Barak, Michelle, Biden did also y'all should have listened. I voted for Kamala and Tim. If Trump wants peace he needs to stop with all the madness and focus fixing the US.

I don’t like Trudeau. I don’t like the way his country is suffering under his rule - by that I mean the poverty the Canadians are living in whilst he takes expensive vacations and eats 5 star food - and I agree more with the opposition. I also don’t like the black face joke he pulled years ago. But in this instance, against the trump administration, I fully support and agree with what he is saying. This is the stupidest trade war in history. This is going to screw up all countries involved. Stand for democracy!

First born American here with one parent from Paris, France, and the other parent from Quebec, Canada. I despise the orange criminal in the Oval Office. I am deeply apologetic to Canada and every single country we have caused harm to because some very ignorant Americans voted a criminal into office. I NEVER voted for this joke!

Here's my issue with Trudeau ...you now placed your country in a position where this becomes a game of tariff chicken. This won't end well for Canada no matter what tariffs you try to envoke to counter Trump. The U.S. aren't dependent on Canada. So, what is your real endgame here matching the tariffs? Is that what the people of Canada really want to get into? Doesn't seem smart to me. It just looks like a lazy game of posturing trying impose some front like the U.S. need to back down from Canada. What a joke.

Americans your President is a Russian asset & your country is now a vassal state. You know you’ve fk’d up when even Canadians & Australians think you’re a joke.

What in this world did USA expect. trump the person that performed lewd acts on a microphone. 34 counts convicted felon. trump is trying to hurt America. Make there be no mistake about. Look how musk is taking a chainsaw against American Vets that work in the government. Then displayed an act with a chainsaw on national TV like it is a funny joke. trump is pitiful. A menace and a criminal. 6 times bankruptcy business fool. And there are so many other foul acts trump has taking against the American people. All I can say is seat back and feel the pain trump has and still will cause our country.

As someone who has detested what this man and his party have done to this country in the last nine years, I still have to give him props for calling out Trump and his stooges for their dumbass economic suicide, and for calling Putin out for being the POS that he is. Remember when America wasn't a boot licking joke? Those were good times.

Words as a leader! Not the joke called leaders in other countries

Trump and his entire baboon administration is a joke and Trump only got elected because promised to lower prices on day 1 and he Has done EVERYTHING except that. TRUMP IS NOT MY PRESIDENT! He is a Complete dumb ass who is hurting our country's place in the world's eyes. Not to mention he is only trying to put as much money in his and his Cronies pockets he is taking food off of the middle classes tables and doing his best to erraticate the middle class completely.. We can't stand for this.

Since when is Trudeau interested in the welfare of Canadians.. After all the citizens are crippled by taxes, businesses closing, and Canada in the WORST state ever, America sees you as a joke, a pushover crippled by weird policies, a mismanaged oil rich country that can be bought with the flick of a finger, NOW you're suddenly concerned.. I call BULLSHIT

Canada, have you all forgotten what this joke did to your country? You should have shut the drug run down and the sex trafficking a long time ago. Dont be surprised if his name doesn't show up on the LIST.

American's your leader is feeding you lies. More drugs and guns travel north than going south to the US. He is fabricating an excuse. As for tariffs...in Trump's first term HE rewrote the North American free trade agreement and we had to agree to it. NOW he figures it isn't good enough?? American's...your leader is making your country a punch line to a bad joke.

As an American, the rest of the world can suck me off. \nTreadu is a joke.\nHis own country doesnt like him\n51 come home , mama has been waiting

Sorry Justin... even though I enjoyed this speech you're still responsible for ruining our country. Your woke policies and taxes have crippled the majority of Canadians and you have the nerve to say the government has our backs is an absolute joke. I don't believe a word you say and I never will. If Pierre was in office right now Trump would have respect for us Canadians. Trump despises JT and so do 80% of Canadians.

And it says a guy who destroyed his own country. What a joke

Trudeau is a joke. His own country wants to recall him.

As an American, I hope these countries go as hard as they see fit in their retaliations. I want maga to feel what they voted for, and they will, just give it time. DT is a joke.

Your the reason why he put the tariffs on you clown. You've destroyed canada it's at its weakest point ever. Housing problems, immigration problems, too many people coming to fast Way to fast. Our borders are a joke the drug problems in this country is out of control and this is all because of you and your liberal commie buddies shitty ass policies and terrible ideas.

I was born in a communist country, but even we haven't had such a joke as Trump. I sincerely sympathize with the average American, such a joke will lead them to ruin in 4 more years. Trust in American business partners will be zero in the next 4 years at least if they let this old man play with Putin.

I'm Canadian. And in my 50s. We've always tended to joke back and forth about stereotypes from our countries. I've always felt we looked up to American ideals ideas and this is why we felt strong to stand with America with many things. I've sometimes not been happy with our Prime Minister but he left a mark, and I'm proud our country is more united but I'm sad at what cost. I hope this is short lived.. I don't like fighting with family

Canada country United DT your USA divided leader by dumb witted DT your joke the world is against you DT

As an American, I’m embarrassed and ashamed of what has transpired. Trump is a FN joke of a president and EVERYONE KNOWS IT. I’m with you Canada ?? alongside Ukraine ??. I hope they realize that Trump doesn’t represent what most sane Americans want as a country.\nRespect to Trudeau , that’s what leadership looks like.

Canada, you should build a wall, before Americans become the next generation of illegal immigrants, as climate, politics and their economy makes their country inhospitable… just joking of course… or not?

Justin Trudeau, you did this to Canada. It’s so disrespectful calling the sitting President Donald. Why don’t you go raise carbon taxes, send our money to Ukraine and bring in another 10,000 Sudan’s when your people are sleeping on the street. This speech is a joke, look at yourself in the mirror and say all this to yourself. Also, stop lying that only a small percentage of fentanyl go into the states from Canada! You’re lying and need to stop holding our country hostage so the conservatives can clean up YOUR mess just like they’re doing in the US! Thanks to you many Canadians are excited and wish to become the 51st state because you’ve made Canada such a threat to the US National Security. You brought in millions of unvetted immigrants, terrorists and allowed so much crime. CNN shame on you. You’ve fed these poor people so many lies they have no idea of the corruption going on. Thank God Justin is gone. Bye Bye Governor Trudeau.

Trudeau is a joke LMFAO. What a clown! His own Country doesn't like him. He is Sleep Joe Biden part2 .

Another country that has done nothing for Ukraine. Trudeau is a weak socialist. His people want him out that's why he's stepping down. He has no skin in the game. All you liberals are a joke wanting Ukraine to keep fighting a losing war. The liberals of today are the war mongers.

Castro's son is a joke. His country has gone downhill since he took office.

When I was growing up in Canada, hearing of someone being a “Proud American” was something I admired. Today it’s a punch line to a joke about the American education system. They have nothing left to be proud of, and I’m so thankful to be from this country instead. Trump administration or not, the American people can not be trusted to vote in their own self interest, let alone the interests of the allies that stood with them for the last century and who have lost lives sending men and women over seas to answer the American call for friendship, justice, and loyalty. America wants to stand alone so let them. The global order is shifting, and Canada needs to plan accordingly. Don’t listen to what people say, watch what they do, and Americans have done enough.

As your average American citizen, I have no reason to give a fuck about Canada because I do not make enough money nor will I probably ever make enough money to want to go to a country that doesn’t allow their own citizens the right to own guns, not a single thing that man pleaded for and sympathy made any sense as the average American, who works his ass off I could give a fuck a less about Canada as a country just like every other country there’s no point of giving a fuck about them I’m never gonna be able to go to them and anyway, even if I did go to them, you get robbed by some piece of shit because a lot of them are Third World countries and you can’t even defend yourself. Absolute fucking jokes

“I am Canadian, and I support Trump because our leaders are a joke. They delay pipelines, restrict the open market, and refuse to trust foreign investment from China or overseas. Instead of strengthening the economy, they bring in a million immigrants while ignoring real growth. If we’re going to rely on America anyway, we should join it becoming the 51st state would make North America stronger.\nIf Canada retaliates against the U.S., it won’t be the government that suffers it’ll be us. Our leaders look weak and desperate. \nWith 25% tariffs, Canada is heading for economic disaster. Companies are moving to America, jobs are disappearing, and our future is at risk. Look at Europe 23 countries share the euro and open borders. We should do the same by becoming 51st state.\nIt’s time to negotiate with Trump and secure real benefits more businesses, better telecom, cheaper flights, lower food costs, affordable housing, a shared currency, and the right to bear arms. Canada would be stronger and wealthier as part of America.”?? ??????\nWe are still Canadians

Donald a smart guy?!! Are u kidding me!!! He’s a freaking joke!! He’s destroying our country and our people and our allies and loving the dictators!! ?????

Honestly I don't know why people hate on prime minister Trudeau I think he did an amazing job during a time when nobody could predict what was happening during covid and I am glad he is speaking out because in my opinion Trump has lost his mind I am not joking I think he either has dementia or dementia? and he has been making fun of Canada ever since he got elected again and what is wrong with Americans that they re-elected this person that made their country a laughingstock honestly it makes no sense to me❤ and from him saying he's going to make Canada a state of his we are bigger than your whole f**** country you stupid bastard? sorry but he makes me so angry and yes I am a proud Canadian❤

I can confidently say as a Canadian, what Trump has done and continues to do is driving the biggest wedge between Canada and the USA. The jokes of Canada becoming a 51st state is outrageous and i speak for many fellow Canadians when saying - WE WILL DIE AS CANADIANS before bending the knee to America. This is exactly what Russia wants and the only true winner from this will be the countries praying on Canada and the US's downfall.

I'm from America and I'm with Canada. Trump has got to be stopped along with the whole Republican party. They are the biggest threat to our country, security and democracy. It's just to bad nobody has the balls to just go in and take them out. The judicial system in this country is a joke. So we have to figure out other ways. They fixed the election and convinced 30M to follow their agenda. I'm ? with Canada.. America is disgraceful because of the traitors running it.

With all due respect, Trudeau is a JOKE. He is out due to screwing with our economy. He is looking Good at the moment due to Trump (lets be honest even putin looking better than trump right now). That being said Tradeau is gone! We will have a conservative government that is going tougher on USA if this continues. \n\nI rather due buisines with USA and mexico, then take it to China, russia or any other country.
