Watch trudeau speak? Yeah no thanks, just came here to comment this. Nobody should be listening to this clown except for the psychiatrist assigned to him at a mental institution. Pray for Canada, pray for the trudeau regime's collapse.

Canadian Prime Minister is a Real mature man that speaks eloquently and is intelligent and is correct and fair !!\n Beautiful speech , thank you Prime Minister, we as Middle class Americans are fighting for our survival and are scared that Trump is listening to billionaires instead of the People!!❤️???

From Puerto Rico thank you for being the adult in the room and speaking with honesty and respect, thank you Prime Minister Trudeau and beautiful and strong Canada!

Thank you Canada......how refreshing to hear Truth and Clear speaking to help us understand. We are scared here in the US - it seems impossible that this is happening.

Trudeau you are a wise reasonable person who loves his country and care of others. Trump is a horrible president, and a very stupid person on many levels. Thank you Trudeau to speak the truth and stand up for your honesty …Thank you..

Listen…honey, these people need to stop saying, “…we’re speaking to the American people.” Chile, we ain’t got nothing to do with this. Direct all commentary to 47 and his administration. Thanks.

Refreshing to hear a leader speak in truth and facts. Thank you.????

Now that's speaking common sense. Thank you for speaking directly to many Americans who know Trump's actions are madness.

Bravo, Canada ??!!! Thank you for speaking truth!

Dear Canada thank you for the kind words and speaking up for behalf not only on your country but on behalf of all of suffering with children at the cost of this high jacking of the govt, american schools are closing in our cities to enrich doge and pocket american dollars meanwhile the president is golfing and spitting his usual KKK non sense

What happened to United States government being by the people, for the people? PM Trudeau's speech is in plain real language, unlike the dumbed-down unintelligible words coming from our administration here in The US. Thank you, PM Trudeau for speaking so reasonably and maturely about this unpleasant trade development??

I am a US citizen and will never call felon47 my president. He cares nothing about our country or citizens not to speak of how he has lied about and treated our Canadian friends. Thank you for doing what our own legislature will not do, stand up to this tyrant. God Bless Canada, and may God save our country!

? Californian here. Thank you, PM Trudeau, for your leadership and for speaking with respect and clear intentions to rebut what you were forced into. Listening to you speak makes things feel a little less scary. To hear another world leader speak with such normality, is reassuring that democracy still exists. The last decade has been hell on Americans. Some of us have been standing up, speaking up and never giving up for a decade now. Wee are tired but we can't stop. Thank you for being a sane voice during this insane nightmare. And thank you for embracing President Zelenskyy. He needed that multileader summit embrace after what Trump did to him ?????

Thank you Prime Minister for speaking the truth and speaking directly to American citizens. Many of us in America continue to support our friends and allies and Canada is certainly our strongest. The biggest problem with Trump is he keeps moving the goal posts. His trade war will weaken both countries.

From the Netherlands we thank you for your speech, wisdom and civilized way your PM speaks the truth about the whole situation due to the stupid fools in the White House

Thank you Justin for speaking out for us Canadians!

Thank you for speaking truth Trudeau. This horrible behavior from the Trump administration does not represent the majority of us. \nIn 43 days. The America we've all known, is crumbling. And may become ash.

Thank you, Trudeau, for speaking truth, unlike the circus ? ? clown ruining our country.

Great speech from Trudeau, thank you for speaking to us. Trump is a old, disgusting piece of crap. He needs to be gone along with his moronic cabinet and the spineless Republicans.

This American wants to move to Canada!!! Thank you for speaking the truth, Mr. PRIME MINISTER

From South Carolina, we love you Canada, Ukraine and Europe. Thank you for speaking the TRUTH on our behalf!❤❤❤

Now THAT is how you speak to your constituents; directly and firmly, Prime minister Trudeau, thank you—-no “tough guy” pretenses. Just direct and to the point. Learn something America.

I am a US citizen and I stand with Canada and Ukraine. It is so validating to listen to someone who speaks the truth, a privilege we don't have in the USA. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau.

Thank you Mr Trudeau, from a US citizen, for speaking THE TRUTH and acting like a real leader of a country who is one of our friends and allies. Trump is an idiot who is taking our country into a spiraling disaster.

Profile in courage right here. Thank you Canada for speaking truth to power.

This is what real leadership looks like. Thank you Trudeau for speaking the truth to Trump. Unfortunately, it will probably fall on deaf ears.

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for speaking truth and for standing against the felon who is destroying us. He and his cult are dangerous to the world and must be fought in any way possible.

Well said Mr. Trudeau. Thank you for speaking out, because our elected officials are not reigning him in and we have no hope since none of them have the ability to speak out against what he has done to the world in a short time. The are afraid of his bullying and I'm glad you stood the ground to take care of your people.

I’m Canadian but lived in the US for 12 years. Trump keeps moving the goal post. This is bullying, plain and simple. Do not yield, Canada. You yield to a bully and he’ll keep taking and taking. I know my people of the north are strong and they know the hardships ahead are worth it for the greater good. But I also know my friends here in the US are largely in Canada’s favor and for that I am thankful. President Trump does not speak for all Americans.

Thank you for speaking to Americans too. We love Canada. We will learn the hard way how to be a better neighnor.

Thank you for speaking truth! Well done.

Thank you for speaking to us, Prime Minister. Our Representatives won't even give us that courtesy.

While I didn't vote for Trump... The idea that this will hit Trump voters almost makes the financial suffering I may have to endure worth it. They will finally feel the consequences of their stupid choices on a personal level. This is the only thing that will speak to them. Thank you Justin Trudeau. I am not looking forward to this personally. But it's important that we as a nation face the consequences of our actions.

A breath of fresh air to hear a normal and caring leader speak instead of a narcistic, criminal, cowardly fraud like Trump.\nJustin we admire you in Europe?.\nI hope our leaders will work together and stand by Canada. The Canadians who liberated my country from the Nazis. We are still thankful for that.

Thank goodness for someone sensible who is not afraid to speak the truth ❤

Thank you Trudeau!!!! you speak for us all. ????????????????????

Speak the truth !! Thank you!

Thank you all in the comments for supporting Canada (and Ukraine). You are speaking up for the truth and for all our countries as partners and speaking out against the tyranny that is DJT and Putin. \nTogether we will prevail as friends and neighbours.

Thank God someone has the courage to speak out against Trump. Someone in the administration needs to take the bull by the horns and speak out against him in no uncertain terms over the long haul.

Proud Canadian - Australian dual citizen here -thanks for speaking truth to power. Trump is dumb loser.

I don’t want it either. You are speaking the truth. I love your country and your people. I’m so sorry this is happening and hope you know that a large portion of our nation is just as appalled as you. It’s not about fentanyl — it’s about bigotry, power and control, isolating the people of this country, putting us in a constant fight/flight state, so the Christian Nationalists can pull the President’s strings and take over this country. Thank you for your sanity in the midst of our chaos. Don’t give up on us. ?

Thank you President Trudeau for speaking the truth about what a mess the felon has created with this stupid tariff plan.

PM Trudeau, I’m an American and I don’t want this either. I’m not speaking for every American, but I know this “Trade War” is unnecessary and negligent. Thanks to our incompetent president.

Thank you from Norway JT for speaking for all the shining villages across the field benath the now dark hill. We will stick together with whatever friends we yet have.

Thank you for not consorting with communist pigs like chump Canada a democratic country should never allied with any communist or dictator or terrorist putin is all of those hes not an elected leader hes a dictator he took control of russia kills anyone who speaks against him you praising him alone with nazis is sick and un American its so scary that america is happy to work with the free world’s greatest enemy….

Thank you Trudeau for speaking to the American people. We greatly appreciate keep it up!

Thanks for speaking the truth!! The United States is no longer and allie to Democratic Europe and Canada. The United States has aligned with Russa and is now part of the Axis of Evil.

Thank you Canada!! Thank you for speaking truth and having a real leader speak!!

Thank you for speaking truth! from a sad American neighbor.

A great speak from a true leader.\nMy big respect and a true thanks to a leader that speaks so all can understand the serious problems we all are forced in to \nBecause Donald dont know what he is doing
