When Americans hear this man talk, the striking difference to the juvenile babble of their own leader should drive them to tears.

This man has a master and he is doing and saying what his master wanted him to say. He is not honest to say all the high tariffs Canada is imposing to USA.

For all of you supporting Zelenskyy, the man cannot even account for $100 billions -- yes, billions with a B -- given to his country, and his stupidity plays right into the hands of starting WWIII, if we're not in it already. Ukraine is just another source of money laundering, and here we are just willing to give more and more money without any result, except for dead bodies. There is nothing wrong for wanting peace. You can't negotiate with only one side. And for Canada, Canada has been charging us high tariffs for years, but no one has pointed out that unfairness.

trump is a dumb man doing a dumb thing

Feel for the American people and Canadian people only one man has done this yes trump ,love from the uk ??

Didn’t this man Step down? Why is he still stepping up to microphone?

As An American citizen I stand for righteous leadership and I stand with Canada, European allies and Mexico. Do what you have to do to protect your country your economy and your citizens. TRUMPSKI and his lap dog JD Vancekoff are ruining the United States of America!! They're not leaders, they're Russian assets, strongmen wannabe's and a scourge in the historical record of our nation. And all of the misled, under educated and misinformed folks who follow this man and his cult of personality have been lead astray by the propagandist on FOX News and right wing social channels and will pay for this just like the rest of us. Trump and his cronies are ONLY about enriching THEMSELVES and their friends and families. Not the working man and woman. Just the autocrats and oligarchs.

The only thing Trudeau got wrong on his speech was to say that Trump is a smart man. Any attempted appeasement of Trump is simply not worth it.

I disagree with Trudeau on one point. Trump is NOT a very smart man.

the con man trump must be getting paid from putin

Donald is a smart man? Are you crazy?

We love to visit your lovely town of Victoria! We have never voted for T destructo macho man we never will! We have educated people here un like the red states!

Blistering speech? ? that man i s SOFT. And CNN tries changeling the point of views from others with inaccurate title.

We stand with you Canada, china and Mexico. Don’t allow a convicted criminal felon who escaped prison term to bully your nation. I blame morons and illiterate racial haters who voted for this dementia old man who thinks he is God. America, you can correct your stupid mistake in 2027 by voting out Republicans in congress. With that, this insanity is stop instantly. His brain will start to function.

Trudeau’s boyfriend teaching him how to be a man. Way to try and sound big, governor of the 51st state ??

You're on your own now USA. What a shame to let a man this ridiculus ruin OUR peace. Wake up.

Trump is NOT a smart man. Bag of hammers have more intellgience and use than Diaper Don!

People power always wins in the end.I feel the true American people will turn on trump and put an end to all this nonsense.as a law abiding English man I defend our friends In Canada.

I didn't vote for this man. Please stop lumping every American into this.\nHe enacted tariffs, he is comforting Putin, he is destroying my country.

US RELATION WITH EUROPE- BAD\nUS RELATION WITH UKRAINE- BAD\nUS RELATION WITH GREENLAND- BAD\nUS RELATION WITH CANADA- BAD\nBUT US RELATION WITH RUSSIA- EXCELLENT!!????\nTRUMP SUPPORTERS MUST REALISE THAT TRUMP IS A CRAZY MAN!

Wow, he just called Trump a very smart man. Canadians really are nice!

Pathetic Leftie weakling???Trump must be quaking in his boots. Best thing Trudeau can do is resign and let a proper man or woman run the country, both will have more Balls than him.

Please don't assume all Americans are into this crazy plan and man called Trump. He is not my President, never was, never will be. I am so sorry that this is happening for no good reason.

I could be in a toxic relationship with this man. ???

A true statesman! How he was able to say that Trump is a smart man without breaking into hysterical laughter is pure masterclass!!! Give the man an Oscar!!!

wtf is this leaving man talking about..just leav.

All of you below are smoking something serious… all Trudeau has to do is stop the flow of fentanyl and stop placating dei and failed security policies. \n\nZelenskyy is nothing but a man child running around with his handout…who doesn’t have the man power to fight Russia and will expect American soldiers to defend him. NATO started this war and they should finish it. \n\nStop being a bunch of parrots and do your own research.

I envy you Canadian people. You have intellectual, mature young man as a Prime Minister.

Trudeau you are a dictator and worship the CCP party in China the irony of this man's words

Mr. Trudeau, we, many of us don't want this either...but do what you need to do, we stand with you... show the man child how it is done...someone needs to...

Trump is a mad man

What the heck does Putin have on Donnie? Was it pedophilia on Epstein's Island? was it sex with boys and girls? Was it the mythical pee tapes? Whatever it is it has to be big enough to get Donnie to break with all the US's traditional allies which has to be making Putin rub his hands with glee. How far does this adjudged rapist, and 34 count felon that the US decided it wanted to make it's President, have to go before someone steps in and say that Trump represents a clear and \npresent danger to the economic and military security of the world? His administration forced New York's director of the FBI to resign because that man did not want to give up the names of personnel who investigated the Jan 6 insurrectionists. He put a known Russian apologist, Tulsi Gabbard, in charge. He has frozen aid to a country actively fighting for it's very survival against an aggressive and expansionist Russia. He applied tariffs against Canada and threatens the same against Europe., he has banned the freedom to protest in colleges though he freed people imprisoned for rising in actual insurrection against the Government. Dictatorship comes in steps isolation from the world and suppression of freedoms are but two. The free world weeps for what the US is becoming under this current administration.

OH JUSTIN YOU ARE SO RIGHT THIS IS VERY PERSONAL YOU MADE FUN OF HIM AND HE IS TAKING REVENGE, BUT PRESIDENT CHUMP OBVIOUSLY CANNOT SEPERATE BUSINESS FROM HIS PERSONAL PROBLEMS, THE WHOLE WORLD DOES NOT LIKE THIS GUY WHEN HIS TERM IN OFFICE IS OVER THE ONLY TWO PLACES THAT HE WOULD BE WELCOME IN IS HIS HOME COUNTRY AND RUSSIA AND I AM NOT SO SURE ABOUT RUSSIA I WROTE ON YOUTUBE BEFORE THAT THIS GUY IS SINKING THE AMERICAN FLEET FAST AND MORE THOROUGHLY THAN THE JAPANESE DID AT PEARL HAROR MAN AT THIS MOMENT THE TWO WORST NATIONALITIES TO BE IS AMERICAN AND RUSSIAN THEY BOTH ARE CAUSING GREAT HARM NOT ONLY TO THE WORLD, BUT MOSTLY TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND COUNTRIES TALK ABOUT SELFISH LEADER'S. PRESIDENT CHUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING WITH THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW IT IS NOT IF WE WILL ENGAGE EACH OTHER IN A WORLD WAR, BUT WHEN THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW ARE STEERING THE HUMAN RACE IN THAT DIRECTION AND PRESIDENT CHUMP YOU AND PRESIDENT POUTINE WILL BE CHIEFLY RESPONSIBLE. THE LEADER'S WE HAVE ELECTED TODAY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE MISERY IN THE WORLD TODAY. LEADER'S LIKE PRESIDENT KENNEDY, GHANDI, CHURCHILL ETC. TODAY WE HAVE LEADER'S LIKE TRUDEAU WHO CREATED MISERY AND DIVISION IN CANADA THE FORE MENTIONED LEADER'S ALREADY METIONED ARE DIRECTED BY PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION AND HYPOCRACY. PRESIDENT ZELINSKY I AM AFFRAID LEADER'S LIKE YOU THAT HAVE COURAGE INTEGRITY AND STRENGHT ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN I AM SORRY TO TELL YOU BUT I THINK IN REALTY YOU STAND ALONE NOT MANY LEADER'S TODAY PUT COUNTRY AND COUNTRYMEN AND WOMEN BEFORE THEIR PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION, BUT IF YOU SUCCEED YOU WILL BE STRONGER AND FAR BETTER OFF GOD BLESS

All countries must do what Canada is doing we tired of republican thugs trump his a devil sick crazy old man imperialist we are not leaving in the olden days the world has change America will be finished soon

This is totally on Trump. Canada did not choose this. I’m proud of the way Prime Minister Trudeau is handling this.\n\nTrump is not such a smart man. Smart men don’t attack friends and allies.

Orange man is basically a GRU asset, bought and proped up by propaganda to be elected. All these gymnastics is practically his mission to break the western ideals of democracy so that his benefactors would reign more... US is practically being sabotaged by the orange man himself, and those drinking his cool aide is practically complicit to it.

THIS HAS SHOWN THE ACTUAL INSANITY OF THIS CROP OF LEADERS TODAY MANNING THE HELM OF AFFAIRS OF THE US GOVERNMENT. WHEN WILL THIS MADNESS STOP?

We love Canada! Trump is an idiot man.

Im an American! Im so proud of this Man standing up to this F' d government actions thats going to hurt us so badly.

Canada Strong!!! Alberta should shut off all crude oil to the US (66% of all Crude imported to the US,) and Quebec should shut off all Hydro (powering all or the US Northeast,) for 72 hours - that will change the mind of the Idiot Orange-man, his Cronies, and the moron's who voted for him!!!

Unbelievable how all these comments show that the wool has been drawn over all your eyes. This man is a tyrant and cares not for his own people, never mind the Americans. Go ask the truckers and real grafters of your country.\n \nAll I can say is what he’s doing here with this speech and his actions is he is in fact sugar coating it and this is making it more likely that Canada will be the he 51st state. So I welcome you Canada with open arms. Xx

I detected NO LIES........... please don't say AMERICANS because all of us don't AGREE with the American dictator! So glad I BELIEVE IN GOD! everything this man said is CORRECT! GOD HELP US??

This is not America, one man only Donald Trump. \nHe Turned on the same people who put him in power. And he's paving the way to be like Putin.

I never voted for Trudeau, but it is hard not to admire him after this speech. He makes Trump look just like he is.. an old, ugly, out-of-shape, and very, very stupid fool. The last thing Canada needs right now are bootlicking Conservatives like Pierre Poilievre. And on a final note.. Trudeau was wrong, Donald is NOT a smart man. He is an utter imbecile.

The people of the World need to get this crazy man aka Donald Trump out of office & into a Padded cell.

Man, the idiots just keep coming. The ignorance really shows. Oh, that's right, this is CNN. The fake news.

Man, nobody's afraid of that.Soy boy, French Frank Castro one of the weakest, so-called men.I've ever seen in my life.Bad guy couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag????

Way to go go Trudeau, tell that DUMB orrange head man and a salave to billionaires.

This WAR MONGERING LOW LIFE ONLY WANTS TO OPPRESS THE COMMON MAN!\nLETS NOT FORGET HOW HE TREATED YOUR FELLOW CANADIAN CITIZENS!!

Pay up the same way America does. Canada has tarrifs on America, but you cry when America puts tarrifs on your country. Man up little man. ????????????????
