We love you America. Wish you didn’t vote for him and them. I know all of you didn’t….but it is what it is. We’ll be fine. We’re. Canadian. We are used to being hearty and handling rough times. We love each other and think nothing of sharing and helping. We will just do it. Whatever it takes. Just today your government told its congress to not to go town halls and listen to YOU. They are turning their backs to the people that pull their last dollar out of their pockets to give to them and they will NOT listen. Make them

Go Canada! I wish America had an intelligent leader like Trudeau!

Trudeau, I wish you were America's president!!

As a 60 year old American, I wish I had a President as erudite and intelligent as President Trudeau.\n Sadly, America ended up with a stooge.\nGo Canada.

He is a great leader wish america had him instead of the orange baboon

I am not Trudeau's biggest fan by any way, shape, or form...\n\nBut he nailed it here. Wish he'd showed leadership like this for years before agreeing to step down, but better late than never.\n\nThe North will never f*cking bend the f*cking knee.\n\nIf you come for us we will come for you too.\n\nWarrior peoples don't cower from fights.\n\nCanadians are warriors, see our involvement in any war for proof.\n\nWake up, America, there's a Russian boot on your neck.

I wish they would not say “America did..” but instead just say Trump. He DOES NOT speak for us.

Most of us in America did not want this either nor did we vote for it, I wish our current administration would act with this much tact

I wish Trudeau was our president. I hate what is happening in the U.S. because of Trump and his minions. Putin must be gleeful at the destruction of the U.S. and all of the favors that Trump has given to him. The American people do not want this horror show that Trump and Musk has orchestrated. The Trump cult is bringing the downfall of America in the world. We are no longer the 'home of the free and the brave', and Trump is no longer the 'leader of the free world'. America will diminish and become a small, petty, stupid, country. I am glad for Trudeau, and Micron, and the UK and all of the democratic countries and people. I feel horrible for what is happening to Ukraine because of Trump. Mr. Trudeau, you are a fine and wonderful person and head of your country. I wish that you could help us out of this madness. :(

I wish Trudeau would not say America but say Trump...

I hate being an American. I did what I could but failed. Countrymen voted against it, and well .. we are now all in this hell together. Left stuck and upset at all of this. I am proud of Canada and wish we had a more capable leader. I am so sorry to everyone else. Know its not everyone in america follows the goons about.

As an American, I wish Canada and Europe godspeed. There are too many morons ready and willing to trade away our freedoms and republic for promises of authoritarianism. If the world does not want to deal with an American dictatorship, it must act now. The masses in America have been insulated from the consequences of their decisions for too long. Appeasement will only lead those masses to believe that these tactics work.

I can't be arsed to listen to this ? end, Trump just struck a 160 billion dollar deal in chip manufacturing that is only the start of what he is going to do for America.\nJust one deal has just put Trudeau back in his box ?\nThe sooner this commie establishment puppet is gone the better it will be for Canada.\nGood luck with this puppet talking for you Canada, I wish you well!

As an American I am grateful to Canada and I will continue to buy Canadian products. The “leaders” of America are shameful bullies. So far, nearly every attempt that has been made to stop this madness ultimately gets turned over by someone in Trump’s pocket. Thank you for standing up to the bullies. I wish the best for you!

President Trudeau. You are awesome. Wish we had you to be ours in America. We dknt sng z dictator, like Trumpit!!!! He's a communist & dictator exactly like putin. ? God Bless you & your country. Dont back down & don't trust Trumpit on his word. He'll stab you in the back. Tou have good facts as some of our medis & democrats. Praying ? ? gor all of you. Be safe❤

DAMN i wish we had a REAL PRESIDENT here in America and not an ORANGE CLOWN PRETENDING to be a president!!!!

I'm here in The Corporate States of America and this government is disastrous. It's an embarrassing thing that the government has done. I, and many others, stand with Canada. Wishing Canada all the best.

Thank you PM Trudeau for your leadership!!! I wish we in America, had that! I am so sorry you and the rest of the world have to deal with this disaster Donald has created!! We as Americans are suffering, but we appreciate so much you all having solid boundaries to hopefully keep our cancer from spreading in the world!!

I'm American...and I wish canada would put a 500% tariff on America..yes we would suffer but somebody needs to stand up to the bullies...lol the American govt doesn't care about fentanyl ..

Trump chose to do this its not Canadas choice and I simple do not see how its justified. This is a tax on Americans make no mistake its OUR prices that will go up as well as Canadians. This sure smells of Russian influence to me, its almost as if Trump is trying to hurt America, he is for sure tearing up the Government. If Putin had a wish list separating us from our staunch allies would be #1

I wish America had you as our leader

Got to love how Justin has to talk to Trump. Like a kid. We have done big things and you're a smart boy. Got to praise the cult leader to make him happy. I truly wish Justin was our president. What a great person and he speaks clearly and is smart. He isn't annoying or an idiot like trump. We truly live in the stupid timeline. Canada is going to get their items from Europe and Asia and South America. So congratulations America we are about to lose so much. Trump is making us weaker.

As much as it will hurt us in America, I understand. I am so sorry. I wish we had a different President. Thank you, Canada for all your years of friendship. I hope we can earn it back some day.

As an American, I am disgusted by our leaders and government. I wish I could move to Canada where there people are treated better. I did not vote for this. It sucks that gas is going to go up and I commute to work. And groceries going up too it's a shame. America supposed to be the better country but it's not. I stand with Canada and Ukraine❤❤

I wish you would say Donald Trump, not America. We the people dont stand with that idiot.

I wish we had such strong, articulated, level headed leader in the America instead we’ve this buffoon escaped from prison

I wish we had such strong, articulated, level headed leader in the America instead we’ve this buffoon escaped from prison

My family stands with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. I hate what's happening here in America. I wish someone would just come along and boot Trump, Musk, Vance and all of Maga out.

Harris voter here, you gotta do what you gotta do Canada. I don't know if I will make it through this but there are people out there in worse situations with more overtly oppressive governments, so I can't complain too much. The only thing I can do is hope that the breaking point is soon where those of us who don't hold contempt for compassion and intellect rise up and show the government that we have had enough. I have never wished misfortune upon another human being before, but Trump and Vance have blatantly shown that they are legitimately evil human beings with only their own interests in mind. They are not true Americans, because they don't care about America beyond exploiting it to their own benefit.

I just became a naturalized American citizen three weeks ago and frankly I wish I didn't. I'm embarrassed by the behavior of the Trump administration and not proud of being part of this America at all.

I wish the Divided States of America had a leader like this! Ours can’t even read.

An intelligent leader who can give a great coherent speech. I wish we had someone like that here in America

I wish we have a President in America like this who talks much sense

I wish Canada would put a list of items out made in Canada,so Americans can help them out, with purchases!❤️????? from your friends in America ?

Dear Canada, I wish we had an empowered voice in America. I’m sorry for what has happened to the trust and friendship between our nations.

Dear Mr. President Trump, would you please reconsider welcoming these wonderful fellow North Americans living in these TEN Canadian Provinces, not as the 51st State, but as TEN States, when being invited into the United States of America? These Canadian Provinces being Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.\n\nSuggested is to make Canada’s existing 10 Provinces into 10 individual United States States. Canada will benefit with a strong 10 State influence within 60 United States governance affairs. Benefits are 10 more States on a balanced display welcomed as 10 white stars within the beautiful United States of America field of Blue of our Flag. Other countries will see North America’s Great Power when 60 glorious States, when combined, and working well together, communicating best when communicating with each other only in English, when English is the United States official National Language. No more Government waste of having multi language signage. Another geologically considered North American country, Greenland, with 4 more territories may wish to add four more States, as well as the many existing United States Territories across the globe may desire Statehood. The Sun will never set on the United States. As for 10 Canadian States, think of the  benefit of 20 mostly conservative thinking U.S. Senators which equals a larger majority of conservative votes in the larger U.S. Senate when composed of 120 Senatorial political leaders. 120 U.S. Senators keep the Filibuster procedure balanced. 10 Canadian Provinces converted into 10 United States States equals many more conservative House of Representatives votes enhancing the conservative majority of political leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives. So many good reasons why Canada’s 10 Provinces, with a mostly conservative thinking population of thinkers, should be transformed into 10 new United States States, not just one United States. Yes....10 more States that is the helpful way forward for the United States to have a very dominant conservative thinking population of United States Congress Political Leaders, resulting in a long term more stable United States Congress representing 60 United States, thinking more conservative, thinking more logical, thinking more common sense thoughts, thinking more capitalist job creation thoughts, thinking more tax cut thoughts, are just some of the benefits of having 60 United States of America States on  display, and functioning efficiently going forward for all the World’s Countries to marvel at.

I wish Trudeau would say the TRump regime is imposing the tariffs. America is not doing that. I don't and can't support anything the TRump regime does and proposes. There is a difference between TRump and America. One has nothing to do with the other.

I so wish that the great leaders of other countries would just say Donald Trump in stead of saying the United States of America. Because we, the average American citizen find Trump’s illogical decisions ruinous for all of us

I wish America had a good man for a president

I wish they would stop saying US and use Trump instead , he is the sole culprit this disaster and all other chaos affecting America and the World.

I wish someone would ask these illegal aliens WHY THEY ARE COMING TO AMERICA

The sheep in America have been brainwashed. They do not use Godly wisdom. People who wish to dismantle America and turn it into a Third World country are doing their best to break us all up into factions that will fight one another. God is the only answer

I wish America had diplomats with as much elegance and class as this man \nI am Jewish by the way if that matters at all

Sane New Yorkers must, I say must, unite, rise up and take the strongest stand against their politicians and dim-whit voters! If they're in agreement with this insanity & rebellion then cut this state off from all federal funding and let New Yorkers pay for these illegals all by themselves. I don't want my tax dollars paying for any illegals. Especially when there are so many Americans living on the streets and/or not even getting by with this failed & fraudulent economy the Democrat Party has given us. Democrat voters aren't being kind and compassionate by wanting them here. They are enabling these people and by doing so, preventing them from growing up and raising their consciousness into a higher state of mind. By wanting to protect criminals, pedophiles, rapists, murderers, thieves, violence and rebellion from being deported, they're displaying for America they're psychology/consciousness of a death wish. This is a psychology of death and failure!!! The Democrat politicians and voters didn't vote for President Trump's agenda but the vast majority of We the People most certainly did. Chuck Shumer, Maxine Waters, all Democrat politicians and Democrat voters, YES, WE DID AND WE WON THE BATTLE!!! \n\nThese illegals are not weak and needing help. They're now uniting, protesting and waving their country's flag against their deportation, which they absolutely have no rights in America to do so. They have no rights here!!! That takes gall, audacity showing their rebellion against American voters and an unreality in their third world psychology to believe they do. We have been forced to deal with this abusive, violent third world psychology for far too long. They have a strong willpower so return to their country, unite there, raise their flags there and rebel against their corrupt government! They don't belong here as they don't have America's vibration. They just continue demanding and taking America by violent force. They are using and abusing tax payers' money and their goal of turning America into their violent third world hellishness must stop now! When they want to become part of America, get in line and make application in our legal immigration program. These illegals do not rate higher than those who are coming here legally!!!

Actually coming that way I’m ambitious person wish I could come to Britain from Britain to America just like that just ring policeman up and say can you help me? I’m a silent seeker. I want I want to live in America. I’d love that. I got a passport by the way, I’ll get one if I need one, but I don’t really need one in America like us.

Hi everyone, I'm just going to weigh in some experience here. These people have given up on their government to fix things. They had it good before when Venezuela was wealthy not so long ago. They want that back. Who wouldn't. They want a chance at a better life . They have in most cases already sold all possessions for traveling money and bribes or security. They are scared and tired of traveling. They got told to come to America by someone. I wish we could afford as a country to take them all and it be ok and they build a good life here. I wish it was like that. The system we have needs work for certain. The USA is being overwhelmed by too many coming. We have to slow the roll . But it's a bad situation for all involved. They will look for an illegal way if needed to make it. Hence the cartels step in and offer a way in exchange for money or drug smuggling and the trouble gets worse. There is no simple solution here. Rough on everyone.

At this point, why would they want to STAY in America when Americans, themselves, are getting the hell out (or wishing they could)?

This is disgusting, they should fight for their own country, it is not America's problem, thank goodness Trump got in power otherwise USA would be over run with imagrants, i wish we had a Trump in germany, woman can't even walk the streets with out being harassed by immigrants, not normal, it's gotten so bad

Well done America wish Europe would do the same massed deportations illegal you go back end of.
