Canada, you are also my family and I stand with you strong, no matter what measures you may have to take to show this idiot that he can't bully everyone. I'll get ready to get a generator. You got to do what you got to do

American Republican here, keep standing strong, Canada! Thank you!

Guess who is happy US, Canada trade war, Russia But US doesn’t know that Putin is nobody’s friend. He will stab US in its back wait and watch.\nCanada will stand strong, united always ❤??

Canada will stay strong forever.we stand together.

WE STAND UNITED ... CONSERVATIVE AND LIBERAL...WE ARE ONE TODAY! STAND STRONG CANADA!

Don't get me wrong: This is sick and sad at the same time! Stand strong, Canada! Europe stands with you! Maybe we Europeans are going to import a lot more goods from you now, because Europe already plans to import much less from the... whatever is left over of the USA. But does Trudeau in this speech somehow sound like Dr. Breen in Half-Life 2 on the screens in City 17? ^^

Canada, stand strong. Trump is taking our country down a bad and scary path when Canada has always been one of our closest allies.

Ah yes, the trade war that Canada will surely lose. I love Canada. Wouldn't trade it for the world, but this is a losing battle by which citizens on both sides will feel the full effect. Trump appeasing Putin is a chess move, that the PM seems to be overlooking. The US can't afford to go to war with Russia, but at the same time, it needs resources within Russia's neighboring region. So the US will do what they always do, and had people listened to what Kissinger had to say, they'd be better prepared for this. Nonetheless, let's stand proud and strong, and come together as Canadians in order to get through this.

The speech was great. Honestly, I am appalled. Be strong, Canadians. Tariffs of 25 percent are soon to be implemented in Europe as well. From Sweden, standing with Canada

Great, unambiguous words by the Canadian president! But one of his remarks stood out: he said that the tyrants want to divide us. He is correct, of course. But the implications are profound! This means that Trudeau himself is measuring his words and deliberately using diplomatic language. He even says that Trump is “intelligent”, which only plays into the imbecile’s unfortunate NPD psychology! The unwillingness to stand strong against American tyranny is harming democracy worldwide! Force Trump to declare a side! And make him choose Putin or democracy NOW!! If you fail to do that, you are taking the path of accommodation, and if Trump is really a tyrant (which he surely is, because of MANY evidences!!), democratic countries weaken their position by not standing strong NOW. If Europe and Canada and Mexico ban Tesla imports and place 50% tariffs on tens of billions of dollars of American products, what would happen? Are these countries AFRAID of the United States? This is not the time for fear! This is the time for courage! Boycott!!!

As a US citizen who has considered Trump to be a boorish moron since I was a child in the 1980s, I thank Canada and PM Trudeau for standing strong against our idiot-in-chief and I hope we can repair this unnecessary rift as soon as possible.

It’s remarkable how a very small group of individuals gets to speak for the entire country. I feel like the overwhelming majority of Americans support Canada and want to keep relations healthy and strong.\n\nHow much blood has been shed over the egos of a few? We are pawns in their game. The People stand together!

Nice, not only Zel stand up against the new bully/evil on earth. Stand strong Canada!!!! Love from Europe

I stand with canada from Switzerland????\nStay strong?

Canada stand strong. Do trade with Ukraine. F**k Trump!

?? Stay strong! Resist! Fight back Canada! America stands with you! ????

American here. Family moved to Canada ?? after American Revolutionary War (yep family was a royalist). Stayed in Oh Canada for over 100 years. As an American ?? (country I love) - I stand with Canada ?? even though it will cost me & other lower / middle classes $$$$. Not Canada’s fault. It is the fault of the orange ? man who is a pretender POTUS. A man who kisses Putin’s ring. A man who protects billionaires & trillionaires… not the majority of U.S. Americans. He doesn’t care about the grossly misguided people who voted for him - they are finding out now! Stay Strong Canada ??! Thank you for standing up to this American Bully! So many of us are ashamed, disgusted, and so sorry! ❤??❤??

Thank you Canada for supporting Ukraine, you have always been on our side, always. We appreciate it and understand what it is like to be betrayed by the United States of America. Ukraine stands with you, Canadians! Canada, be strong! ?????

CANADIANS HAVE TO BE STRONG AND STAND TOGETHER..THIS IS AN ACT OVE WAR AGAINST OUR COUNTRY OUR WAY OVE LIVES AND FREEDOM..IT WILL GET WORST TRUMP IS A DICTATOR AND DANGEROUS. NO RETREAT NO SURRENDER CANADA STRONG ????????????

❤ well done! ?? Half of are country voted for trump and I wasn’t one of them. Stand strong Canada ❤ ??

Stay strong Canada! Trump is starring in the movie Canadian Bacon. \nWe the people need to stand against trumps and his fascist administration and the traitorous republican legislators!

Bravo!?????? I am an American and I stand with Canada. Leaders from other countries around the world should be as strong as your leader Trudeau! This message could not be more clear or direct. And I’m glad Trudeau didn’t call him with president in front of his name. trump doesn’t deserve it. He is a disgrace to America and exactly what America is not about. No one knows how he could get here But it’s a nightmare that we are trying to wake up from. Trump has spread cancer in America and we are fighting for our lives. We are deeply sorry for all the pain we are causing people around the world. This is our fight and we unfortunately are making it everyone’s problem. We need help, so thank you for everything you are doing.

I am a USA citizen, and I support Canada, and I hope your government stands strong against our dictator. It's about time that someone puts Trump in his place. And if he continues to trash Mexico, we will stand with her as well. There are many Americans who think our current President is a menace to the world. He is greedy, arrogant and filled with pride. God Bless Canada!!

I am a Hungarian born Canadian, I am so sad to see what the US is doing to my beloved country. Please stay strong and we are standing by you from Europe. Love you Canada!!!!

Way to go Justin! Stand strong Canada!!

Stand strong Canada We Americans are with you and Mexico ❤\nI think Canada will miss him he's a good man who loves his country

Stand Strong Canada

Well done canada for standing your ground....having family there I know how strong the feeling is amongst Canadians.....be proud of who you are and take your produce , minerals and oil and deal with people who will treat you like an equal respected partner .I've no doubt europe will be next ......the american government will slowly isolate itself from its western partners and that's s real shame for the American public .......it'll cost jobs in the us cause inflation and it's gonna get a lot more expensive for everyone

putin & donnie plan to coordinate a takeover starting with the US (which donnie has already initiated). Thank you PM Trudeau - you and others please keep standing up to him because our own representatives are cowards who choose power, prestige, privilege and profits over their constituents. donnie has already bowed down to putin. donnie has missed the fact that fentanyl is smuggled in via container ships from china along with mailed packages and trucks from Mexico. Agents can inspect at the borders until the cows come home but smugglers will always come up with new ways to hide contraband. Oh yeah, donnie is NOT a “very smart guy”. The WSJ is wrong on that point. Don’t feed his ego.\nStay strong Canada ❤

Trump Charge them 26%We're behind you Stand Stand strong stand your ground It's only fair How long Canada cheated America Look how long they let Muslims cross through the border

Thank you Canada for your strong stance! Great Prime Minister, Canadians can be proud. Please stand by Europes, we need your partnership.

Proud to support our Prime Minister and his strong leadership. We stand together for CANADA!

As an American, I stand with Canada and Ukraine. I am ashamed of Trump. I do not agree with his rudeness and his shameful disrespect. Stand strong Canada. There are Americans standing with you.

Europe stand strongly behind Canada and Mexico\n\nPeople stop buying american stocks\nPeople stop buying american goods\nCountries start making new friends and allies excluding USA\n\nPoor you\nMy heart goes to all people who protest \nRemove your president and the top they are not worthy of you hard earned taxmoney….they only wants to make themselves rich and remove you the peoples voice\n????????

A golden age for the rich, not the people. Stand strong Canada , dont let this bully take you down.

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau. Unfortunately Donald Trump will destroy the US. Canada will grow stronger without US. It is regrettable that the current Trump administration is destroying the strong relationships between US with Mexico, Canada, Europe, UK, China, Middle East and Africa. Canada will always stand for democracy, freedom and justice even if this current administration refuses to do so. US and Canada has fought WWI, WWII, Korean war, Vietnam war, Iraq war, Afghanistan war together. As brothers in arms both have fought, bleed together against fascism. What Donald is doing in the US is as close as it gets to fascism in America. During this difficult time in American history more than ever America needs to trust in God. God bless America land of the free home of the brave. Let's pray that God will intervene through prayer to bring America to depend on Him once more.

A American Marine Corp Veteran stands with you Canada. Stay strong. What Maga doesn't realize is there are many 3rd party voters who are going to start working on doing the things that need to be done to throw the road blocks because he has definitely started down the road road to dictatorship.

Thank you, Canada❤ I am glad there are still strong leaders who stand against tyranny

I thought this guy put his resignation forever ago I guess that was a joke? I find it funny that Canada is so strong and fighting back but their people are already fighting to just eat everyday and trying to get to the food bank everyday! You would think the the Pm would be more focused on helping his people then he is about helping and standing with Ukraine, pretty soon he won’t have any people to fight for!

I never thought I’d see the day when the President of the United States would launch a trade war against a staunch ally & friend, while sucking up to the murderous Russian dictator Putin. Stand strong Canada, the free world - what’s left of it - support & stand with you! ❤❤❤

Very impressed with President Trudeau. Articulate, honest. Stand strong together Canada. Americans are with you. Not with Donald \nTrump! Your Prime Minister is to be congratulated. \nThis is madness!!!!! \nBut we will right the ship!!\nDon’t give in to him!

I stand with Canada. Phillippines support you. Stay resilient. True north strong and free!!!

From Texas and stand with Canada, strong and logical speech

Donny the dictator trump will not last long…. He’s pissing everyone off who isn’t in his suck up club. Donnyboy only thinks about himself and how much money he can acquire. Oh, I’m sure Putin is going to enrich donnyboy well. Stand strong Canada. From a loving neighbor in NY state.

From a US Citizen... Canada remain strong and unlike our politicians stand up to all bullies. Trumples the Clown doesn't represent the good in the US... and to the veterans that spoke up... thanks for your service and thanks for once again standing up for the US

As an American, i always want to support my country, but when they are attacking an ally and friend for absolutely no reason, i have no choice but to hope that Canada stands strong against Trumps bullying.

JIimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George Bush Sr, Bill Clinton, George Bush Jr, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, agree or disagree with them they never destroyed so much in their time in office. In My 50 years of life I have never seen such a diplomatic failure. Canada, UK, Australia and the Eu have been our closest allies since ww2 and Mr. Trump is his maga disciples are heading towards what the Soviet Union and the old Warsaw pact countries couldn't do in over 50 plus years. Canada Stand strong, France and the Eu Stand strong, UK and Australia nothing but love and respect from a disgusted American citizen. Hopefully democrats can flip the house or the senate in a couple years, or some republican senators will get some intestinal fortitude to at least stalemate the senate to turn the madman into an essential lame duck president. At the point no white house representation is better then what Trump has in store. President Zelesky all the respect in the world, you're what a leader should be, and hopefully your true world leader friends will stand for what's right. Love and respect and apologizes to Nato Eu Ukraine and Canada. A majority of Americans are absolutely disgusted by what this country has turned into.

Stay strong Canada ?? Europe ?? Portugal ?? stands with you

I stand with you Canada, and strongly rebuke Trump.
