There's a 97% reduction in the fentanyl trade compared to December ?. The U.S. should then ask why these measures weren't implemented earlier

Who benefits from this? him! he gets to blame Canada when American prices go up and his supporters will not need or want to hear the truth, they'll be willfully ignorant. If he genuinly admires Putin he'd love nothing more than a Belarus of his own to compare notes with at their little bromance dates! Sad thing is im not trying to make any kind of joke, i really believe he would love that\n\nI'm in UK. Stay strong Canada we love you. Swapping OUT any US products i Possibly can (family too). Also going to look for and swap IN any Canadian produts we can \n\ni cant find emoji flag on this keyboard but imagine Many Canadian flags, hearts a Welsh flag a Union Jack and even more Canadian

How many Americans have been unalived from diabetes because of Canadian maple syrup? Fentanyl is nothing compared to that sugar syrup.

Trudeau control your borders, you have no cards, have nothing compared to the USA... You chose the Tariff Match didn't you now... IF you had 'border' control in place, you wouldn't be able to spend 1 Billion dollars, and you wouldn't be acting just days ago... And yes Since Trump was Elected, border crossings lessened because illegals know they better get with it. Has nothing to do with you Trudeau. ANd you do sugar coat, well lie, about everything. Oh, and Dems don't have your backs. They are busy freaking out right now. lol

Trudeau is so well spoken compared to the buffoon idiot babbling moron the United States has in office. Trump is an embarrassment to Americans!

Now compare this speech to that sickening display of ego in the Oval Office w President Zelensky. \nElbows Up??

18:03 \nTarget: We’re paying tariffs due to purchasing from these foreign suppliers. We have a choice: Find a domestic supplier with comparable prices or pay the increase to tariffs or the smaller increase from switching to domestic. As such, there’s only one thing to do to maintain the profit margin. That thing is raise prices in our domestic locations.\n\nAlso Target: We could also make public statements about the products we sell and what it’s like trying to find an adequate domestic buyer — but if we say something that makes the President’s decision look bad, dear leader might do something even worse for our company and actually cause problems for the CEOs.\n\nStill Target: In the mean time, we’ll wait and see how loudly people complain about prices and wages before we do anything drastic (I.e., anything at all).

Canadians must be so proud. It is like night and day compared to the buffoons across their border.

I wish they dude is the president of US. So embarrassed to here trump speak compared with him.

What class and eloquence from Trudeau compared to the PIG!!

Listen to Trudeau, this is how a nations leader speaks. Intelligible, intelligent, well spoken, concise, level headed and he came armed with the facts. Compare him to idiot Drumpf, who is unintelligble, idiotic, reactionary, emotionally unstable, speaks at a 4th grade level, who lies like he depends on it (he does), and speaks only in run-on-sentences laden with self praise and peppered with insults for his critics and those he dislikes. The man only likes people who suck up to him as sycophants do. Theres nothing to sugar coat here, Drumpf is dumb as hell, a complete asshole and 100% self interested. His supporters love him because he's just like them in character, and how they want to be in reality: rich.

Fanfanol is little problem compared 25% tariffs massing economic and raised prices

Trump sounds so dam stupid compared to Trudeau.

Wonderful to hear Canada's response to the bully Trump. President Trudeau response to global issues is measured, articulate and informed compared to the ignorant, bombastic self serving purposes of Donald Duck (AKA Donald Trump/ USA president) rants!!.\n Stand strong Canada, you have leverage (higher exports of power energies) to the US with your natural resources. In Ireland we recognize a huge differential between the morals of the USA versus Canada ( but some times get confused with the accents). I am with you Canada. Every best wish with your endeavors and thank you for supporting the EU.

Trudeau is such a masterful leader and speaker compared to the uneducated troll who leads the U.S.

Canada needs to comprehend what being a junior associate in a deal means. That is what Canada is compared to the United States. Feelings have NO place when it comes to business. Keep your feelings and emotions out of it.

Lets not concentrate on how this delivery comes across, You just dont know whats coming down the road, we will feel these actions, dont compare this with the price of eggs,

Compare this to the upcoming bloviating bluster from Trump later this evening and the differences will be GLARING.

Trudeau has what, 20 days left in power and he's lecturing the US! Clown. Why haven't you come up with a solution to Ukraine instead of spouting your petulant mouth. Good riddance. Who needs who here? Canadian economy is a drop in the buck compared to the U.S.

Compare this to Trump’s state of the union this evening. What a stark contrast it will be. Invoke the 25th amendment at once!

i ve never liked trudeau.. but comparing with trump hes a good leader??

Compare these two Presidents: one is a real leader who can speak articulately and coherently, backed by facts, while the other is just a hillbilly/redneck. You know which one is the hillbilly. :)

Justin Trudeau’s diction makes Treasonous Trump sound like a drunk parrot compared to him.

Hey MAGA, this is how a great Statesman communicates. Compare this to the gibberish of your mediocre Salesman.

Donald a smart guy??? Really? Based on what metric? He’s probably smart compared to someone with brain damage.

Jealous how Canada has such an intelligent man compared to the clowns we have, they need to be impeached for real!!

Nice to hear coherent sentences, a well-balanced speech with an intro, substance, and conclusion. Such a joy compared to the whiny incoherency of the spiteful old man.

I thought Trump was only going to match the tariffs that Canada had on America for decades! Anyone know how much more USA is charging compared to Canada?! What an outrage! USA is leaving so many victums in it's wake!

I am Korean. Your clear and determined speech is exact, justified compared to Donald.\nI support Canada

I mean he’s certainly well spoken Im sure we all can agree but factual….not so much. People do your research on Chinese Triad gang members buying up real estate in Vancouver to launder money from drug sales. There is no doubt a growing problem in Canada that is impacting the US. By the numbers Canada illegal border crossings and Fentanyl crossing volume might pale in comparison to Mexico but it’s important to note that it’s still a rising problem they’ve yet to fully understand. Look at how much of the Northern US border is unguarded compared to the southern border. This tariff war between the US and Canada is no doubt a problem but Canada is absolutely a part of the reason it exists. In the end please remember there’s always two sides to every story and mainstream media is anything but objective when it comes to how they cover them.

Wow a leader that actually can speak the language as an adult with intelligence. Trump sounds so dumb compared. It’s up to the American people to show their government that they are on the wrong path. Do it now… we support Americans not their government. Go Canada.

Everyone in comments is saying how elegant he speaks, compared to Trump. Obama was the most elegant speaking man on the planet, but where did that get the US. I don’t care how anyone speaks, just so long they get RESULTS.

Wow the United States got what they got because they voted stupidity, hatred, bigotry, racism,no experience, felonies, just to name a few?compared to these two men from Canada and Ukraine ?? who can read, speech different languages, have compassion, have experience, intelligence with integrity… WOW JUST BECAUSE AMERICANS DIDN’T WANT A AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN…who has everything thing in her fingernail that lil Donnie will never have? United States got a “good white boy”who happens to sleep with Satan???

It's more than time for Canada to turn themself to electric Chinese car at around CAD 5K with quality comparable to Tesla and so many more affordable goods and products from diverse countries of Asia including cheaper chips, GPU, CPU, etc... with the green, affordable and available electricity in huge quantity who could place Canada at the first rank in AI development without speaking about it Geo position reducing latency, Crypto mining at the lower cost around the entire world, the world largest rear earth elements and so many more. By stopping to cooperate with a vicious country which has the philosophy of eliminating the concurrency until to collaborate for the exponential growth of each other's. It's clear that the target of the US was to force the Canada to be producing goods and service to the US consummation at a price so low that will have turn Canada in a third world country which the US could invade or exploit as it will, like they did all around the world by bombing and even committing genocide using proxy to stole the resource of so many nations around the world. So obviously they deal with Russia on how to rob the richest from Europeans nation like Ukraine as it is clear that the US is now looking to make the entire world economy fall for their own profit. Canada must lead in the fight against the American imperialisms pushing for a world embargo against the US and become at the same time one of the richest nations in the world if not the richest one. while for the US citizens to invest all their money in BTC to ensure that they will not fall down with their government and economy.

Compare Trump and Mr Trudeau purely on their demeanour and the words that they speak. Mr Trudeau has demonstrated here that he is a skilled statesman, he can speak coherently and powerfully. He's not spouting ridiculous insults in the face of Trump's tariffs. He may have fallen out of favour in Canada, but as a British citizen looking in, he stands head and shoulders above Trump and Vance. Thank you for your service Mr Trudeau.

What a distinguished man compared to the thug in the White House. We are with you, PM Trudeau and know your war is not with us.

If we compare Trump’s tariff policies with the approach taken during Smooth-Hawley Tariff Act (1930), there are striking similarities and key differences in terms of economic impact and global consequences. Here’s a comparison:\n\nSimilarities:\n\t1.\tProtectionist Goals:\n\t•\tBoth Trump’s tariffs and the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act were implemented to protect domestic industries by imposing heavy tariffs on foreign goods.\n\t•\tSmoot-Hawley raised tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods, while Trump has imposed significant tariffs on China, Canada, Mexico, and the EU.\n\t2.\tRetaliation by Other Nations:\n\t•\tAfter the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, U.S. trading partners retaliated with their own tariffs, leading to a massive decline in U.S. exports.\n\t•\tTrump’s tariffs are already facing retaliation from Canada, Mexico, China, and the EU, which could slow down global trade.\n\t3.\tMarket Instability & Economic Risk:\n\t•\tThe Smoot-Hawley tariffs are widely believed to have exacerbated the Great Depression by restricting global trade and worsening economic conditions.\n\t•\tTrump’s tariffs are triggering stock market declines, price inflation, and global trade tensions, raising fears of a potential recession.

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.

So impressed with Trudeau and Canada as a whole. This should make any self respecting American citizen feel embarrassed to compare their apology for a president to this man and his team. P.S. Note to Trudeau - Trump is NOT a very smart guy, don't do what the rest of the world is trying to do, flatter this susceptible idiot hoping to get him on side, it won't, it just makes him certain that he is so special and clever and makes his behaviour 100% worse.

First time I listen to Trudeau’s speech, it’s really good. A decent man comparing to Donald

Why does Trudeau sound so sensible and believable compared to what we've been hearing from the US.

Let's compare US vs CA military budget and guess who needs who

Trump compared to every last world leader isn’t even close. Imagine Trump sounding anything like this or speaking with such eloquence. Our President has to be the dumbest person on earth

I'm no fan of Trudeau but... Compare this to Trump it's night and day. He looks young and healthy, talks eloquently and is intelligent. But Americans rather prefer an 80 year old obese criminal who paints his face orange and knows like 50 words. It would be funny if this didn't have horrible consequences for the whole world.

Wow, he sounds so intelligent compared to Trump

I was never a fan of Trudeau, but compared to Trump he is a breath of fresh air. Give it 3 years and 10 months and Americans will be back to sanity. Don't know if America will be in one piece though. After the three stooges have fired everyone, and taken away their social security, and our soldiers dying for no reason against our allies, and the VA system disbanded from helping past soldiers who made sacrifices for this country, while the dollar has lost most of its value, while inflation is through the roof....yes it will be tough. To our Canadian and Mexican neighbors, do what you have to do to inflict pain on the meatheads in America who think Trump is their savior. They need to be taught a valuable lesson.

I AM ??\nand I support President Trump?? and Putin in Russia ?? \n\nZelensky is another pick pocketeer and any pocket will do- he can be compared to Hamas \n\nPeople require eyes to see thru - the physical ones won’t do - blind to the enemy which makes you’s one too

There's a trade deficit with Canada.....if you actually think US will be worse in the long run compared to Canada, you would not go on TV like this Trudeau. You would just tariff

Your coverage is useless compared to the speech and questions. Useless fluff

25% on 150 billion. It'll be a drop in the bucket if we get 100% of 300 billion back from Ukraine. Canada's economy is nothing compared to the US. US GDP is quite literally 10x larger than Canada's.
