It took 9 years and on his way out, but Trudeau finally united Canadians. Not happy about tariffs but here we are. Elbows up eh ya hosers

Trudeau is not even qualified to shine Trumps shoes ! I like how he acts like he is popular with his people he has done nothing for them but tax them into poverty and infringe on their rights ! He is on his way out with billions of stolen taxpayers dollars !?

Trudeau is a clown & crook took all his bank accounts of Truckers protest him . He should be in jail for that .He done a terrible job . He got in an airplane right way to DC to see Pres Trump when he won the election . Before & Now With new Tariffs Canadians don’t like Trudeau . They want him out so bad ! He was a cov fool.

You all are funny. Just a month ago Trudeau was on his way out for the shit he’s done to Canada. Now you all are singing his praises. The flip flop is funny

Trudeau is just butthurt that American dollars are not going one-way into Canada any longer. He's a liar and a terrible leader. Everyone in the comments saying he's intelligent. No, on the contrary, he's a moron. Smooth talk doesn't make one intelligent.

Up to now, I strongly despised Trudeau. He was weak, dumb, inconsistent, insignificant. \nNow, my opinion has changed. \nWhat he says is far from crap. \nT is a criminal, at the service of China, Russia to disrupt the North American economy every which way he can, whilst hiding in the shadow of a sheer head on military conflict that would leave both sides in the midst of nuclear fallout for centuries. \nThe enemy within. \nThe scour of unabashed destruction. \nThe new age of mind slavery in a T.

Chump can't stand the admiring way Melania looked at Trudeau! \nSo he's being a biatch to our closest friends in Canada. Thanks, MAGAts.

I don’t like Trudeau. I don’t like the way his country is suffering under his rule - by that I mean the poverty the Canadians are living in whilst he takes expensive vacations and eats 5 star food - and I agree more with the opposition. I also don’t like the black face joke he pulled years ago. But in this instance, against the trump administration, I fully support and agree with what he is saying. This is the stupidest trade war in history. This is going to screw up all countries involved. Stand for democracy!

Trudeau hit the bell when he mentioned:- Trump, you're a smart guy..This is a very dumb thing to do..\nA nice way to skin a cat..!\n\nTrump will remove the doubt when he makes a U-turn on the tariffs as it'll make Americans suffer...in pain(economically)...

Bravo monsieur Trudeau. Courage aux Canadiens, vous n'êtes pas seuls. Americans, wake up, dammit! I'm not even sure most of you are cognitively capable of understanding what was just said. Either way, you are alone and can only count on yourself.

First time in my whole life that I'm proud of Trudeau... Again I've always hated is way of governing...This is the speech of a real leader...\n\nPlease realize that Poilievre is a JDVance with the view of the orange orangutan... Be careful cause they have the SAME agenda! (Abortion and women's rights, etc...)

A real Indigenous American here we really dont care, make canada the 51st, get out of the wars. Gov. Trudeau is a liar, 2 way tariffs make it equal duh with your square head ass, big ass nose. He is using witchcraft with his words, he sounds like he is reading a bedtime story to put you all back to sleep.

Canadian here. Wake up Canadians. Many people are praising Trudeau for this speech. Don't. He is out as Liberal leader within the week. He doesn't have to follow through on anything he said. Plus, he just stated that he's smart enough to suggest that Trump just put a 25% tax on Canadian goods for Americans but he also thinks that you are dumb enough not to realize that he just put a 25% tax on Canadians for American goods. Trudeau basically created the situation for these tariffs (open border to let anyone come here). He loves this as he gets to take the apparent moral high ground for the first time in his life and wants this speech to be the way he is remembered rather than years of failing Canada. Forget about the last 9 years and vote Liberal if you are a fool.

Trudeau is on his way out. His words don’t hold any weight.

Trudeau is just happy to distract his citizens from the disastrous way he ran his country into the ground

I've never been so proud of you Justin Trudeau! If I could, I'd vote for you today. I think you're the leader we need more than ever. Thank you for everything you've done for us.\n\nI'm scared as hell of what's to come, who will lead us. If the Conservatives gain power I'm afraid we will go the way of the US and its idiot in charge and what will become of the world...\n\nOur next election will matter more than ever. I hope as Canadians we come out in droves and vote for democracy and not sit at home and watch the Right win. I've never voted Liberal before, I've always supported the NDP. But this next election regardless of who is elected as leader for the Liberals I will vote for them to keep Poiliever out of office as that will be catastrophic. \n\nOnce again thank you for everything Justin Trudeau ❤️

As a Canadian Trudeau is on the way out in a few weeks and loser that belongs behind bars. He has made some good points, but overall, had destroyed Canada and Canadians. He has sold out to the WEF and globalist elite back in 2016. Trudeau is just another Biden.

Justin Trudeau is an egotistical, immature, childish man, who is upset as his popularity ratings are very low, and he is on his way out!

Trump is friend only to himself. Beyond that, I'm wondering if he is a Russian asset. What did he and Putin talk about in Helsinki in 2018, when no one else was allowed inside the room, very much against protocol? There are simply too many odd Trump-Russia incidents to ignore this, starting with Paul Manafort passing Trump campaign intel to Konstantin Kilimnik. I think there is cause for investigation. And frankly, spying on Trump should they find anything that warrants it. Canada rocks. I ordered a new Canada t-shirt and I'm going to wear it in public. Trump sucks golf balls. Thinking about getting a Gulf of Mexico shirt too. Trump is making Trudeau into a hero all of a sudden. LOL, way to go dumb orange president.

Trudeau is true IDIOT and we don't care. I'm with Trump all the way.

Canadian here. You Americans seem stupid. Trudeau is the worst leader we’ve ever had. He’s on his way out. He’s resigned. He’s a disaster. He doesn’t stand for freedom. Or freedom of speech. You people have no idea. Perhaps you could read a little bit more.

You can't reason with unreasonable people. Thank you, Trudeau, for your dedication to our country. You have been a voice of sanity on the world stage. You have the intelligence and class to speak with other world leaders. I only hope your successor will behave in the same democratic way and not embarrass us.

As an American Mr. Trudeau let me say that i highly respect the way you speak with education and dignity. Thank you for what your telling us. I didn't vote for this tyrant or these republican politicians. I hope those MAGA's are happy with how we are doing and the suffering that is coming shortly.

We don’t want this either, PM Trudeau. And this isn’t our government. It hasn’t been our government for a few decades now. Please do everything you need to in order to fight back. We will be ok. We will fight back against this criminal administration in every way that we can. God Bless Canada and its wonderful people.

The ChiComs, working with their Liberal minions, have made sure that any election will be rigged. Trump is trying to save Canada because he will send Troops into Canada to eject the Chinese military. He wants to do it with laws by getting Canada to join the USA. If that does not happen, he will use the military to do it, and Canada will be seen as the enemy of the USA allied with China. Trudeau admitted that without the welfare the USA has been providing to Canada, your economy will collapse. The Bank of Canada is bankrupt. The Canadian dollar is about to collapse. How will you feel next year when you need two dollars to buy what one dollar buys now? And plan on having fewer dollars to start with because your carbon tax, your sales tax, your income tax are all going up. WAY up. This is what happens when you decide to compete with a USA that is unshackled. The USA can produce more of our own oil than we can use, and we will sell the extra to YOUR foreign customers cheaper than you can produce it. Then you will be BEGGING for a pipeline. So Trump invited Canada to become a member of the most successful and powerful union of sovereign states in history, something that even our own territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, and all the others do not have. An invitation to be a bona fide member. Why do you think that is? Minerals? The USA has all the minerals we need. We have more oil, coal, and natural gas than any nation also, and we can produce and refine it cheaper than any country can. So Canada was invited to become a state so Trump could peacefully eject the ChiComs from North America. And did you accept? No. Did you say no thank you? No. You gave us the finger and said f&$k you to Trump. We hear you Canada. But now is not the time for pain, that comes later.

Prime Minister Trudeau is boldly hitting the nails on the head, and I admire his boldness and honesty as I've always admired Canada and its peoples. Trump is in the back pocket of the Russian dictator. His actions prove it to my satisfaction. Canada has been a staunch friend of the US, a real partner not just for economic benefits for both countries but for a democratic way of life. Canada is a strong democracy whose people are known for their open hearts and minds. I pray that this idiotic trade war started by a man who is subservient to Putin will come to an end. I say to Canadians, let us stick to our common values of democracy, free expression, peaceful borders, and our commitment to the greatest good of the many rather than the greatest good of the few and the Russian dictator.

Canada -- Congratulations to you for not supporting Putin's puppy. Trump's damned fool supporters deserve the results of their meanness and boundless stupidity. Too bad farmers, Cubans, anti-immigrant racists, holy rollers, misogynists, and fools. You go, Trudeau. Trump cannot be trusted in any way. Born damaged. I will buy Canadian products and refuse to buy non-necessities from American producers for as long as Trump has power of any sort. Trump is working for Russia and the Republicans are helping him. I don't forget those who attack my family. TRUMP WORKS FOR RUSSIA.

Trudeau was being way too generous when he said Chump was smart. It’s evident that he’s not since he started the trade wars.

My friends would not have it where I paid them $5000 and they paid me $1000\n\nI don't even want to hear your lies Trudeau. You are calling Americans stupid right to their face. \n \nBecause only somebody really stupid would agree that America paying Canada three times more than Canada pays America is honest or the way it should be.

Not a fan at all of Trudeau's – however, he was way too damn *ELEGANT* and this is quite the *MOST RARE TRUDEAU W ?* that I've ever seen ???

No one cares trudeau you are on your way out. Just get out of the office so someone competent can get in.

Much love to you Mr. Trudeau and to the people of Canada who I have always found to be most kind and generous. This American is with you all the way!!

Trudeau Gov.destroyed Canada all aspect of existing country.\nTrudeau treat Canadian citizens as conquered people. Trudeau acted the same way with USA to involved in election against Trump.\nCanadian paíd for enviroment to kill own economy to grow..\nNow ,For Canadian citizens is better to be state of USA not too much tax.more freedom,not discrimination the white Christian man. It is wrong to create hate against American what next - contempt latter degenaration.\nTrudeau want to made damage to USA. The best,after stop deliver hydro ,energía is develop produce,fantynol will be big problem\nI prefere Alberta Primer Schmit to find solution in talking deal.\nOther way is join to USA for better life for Canadian people, and better west global possibility against China\n.

Trudeau has spent the last 9 years destroying Canada. He is supposedly on his way out. Most of Canada want him gone the guy was a drama teacher that lost his job for an inappropriate relationship with a minor. He arranged a NDA for a couple of million. All Americans see is his hair and his speaking ability. You can’t believe any of the word salad out of his mouths. Canada’s most corrupt PM ever.

Canadian here, but in no way possible will I agree with anything Trudeau says or does. He is a goof and needs to go NOW!

Making an enemy of Trump is not going to work. Trudeau has no way of knowing who is coming here illegally. Our border is far too gigantic and mostly unguarded. Secure the border and Trump will back off. Your second choice will be 3rd world war. If you think Putin is going to go backwards on this you are mistaken. The Russians have invested the lives of thousands of their children so far. You don't seem to understand how dangerous a game you are playing. You are naive Trudeau and leading us to the brink of hell.

It is so refreshing to listen to a politician who can string words together in a comprehensive and truthful way without directly hurtling lies, childish insults and gaslighting. Best wishes to Mr. Trudeau and our friends to the north!

Proud of Justin Trudeau of saying what needs to be said. As an American, I'm embarrassed by the way our government is behaving. This needs to stop! This bullying and chest puffery is only going to be our demise.

Trudeau who? He’s on his way out ?????

By the way Trudeau nice response on covid, as bad as the democrat ran states

Trudeau is a a complete idiot! Way past time for you to be gone Mr. CASTRO, oh I mean Trudeau.

trump is looking for excuse to annex Canada. The same as putin does. But the other way. Bravo Trudeau??

His speech was not only eloquent and well addressed. I loved the paused, calm but firm way in which he spoke. I had my criticism of him, due to some policies of his government, but now, I'd be SO proud to have him as a prime minister. Well done, Mr. Trudeau. Stand strong, Canadians ??✊? From a Brazilian living in Spain, Europe.

I am proud of our little brother Canada standing UP!! In no way do I believe that Justin Trudeau thinks Trump is a smart man. Go Canada. You STAND UP on that side and we'll STAND UP in here!!

That’s right stand up for your country president Trudeau. Donald Trump is a big ass liar. I have been to Canada several times. And I know for a fact it’s gonna be very very very very hard to bring drugs up out of Canada to United States. Canada is a wonderful lovely country. You’re doing right not to deal with a evil man. He’s just using the Tarniff law to try to put extra money in his pocket and they trying to con the other countries out of their money.Lying to the American people make them think it’s another reason why he’s doing the Tarniff law . He’s a habitual liar, and a con man and a thief.I wouldn’t do no business with him at all he cannot be trusted. If a man will betrade his own country he will betrade anybody. Who ever in United States they pick up a gun or try to hurt the Canadians any kind of way it’s a damn fool. In the truck started a war with Canada with him in office I would rather fight for Canada then fight for him

Anti-Semitic Jew hater Trudeau has his work cut out for him. Trudeau will likely find some way to blame the Jews for the tariff problems.

The only way to deal with a Bully is to stand up to him just like Zelensky is doing in Ukraine, Trudeau is doing the same with the orange Mussolini. Go Canada ??

Canada has been stealing money from the usa for way to long....we are done helping you for free.....CANADA YOU ARE NOT A FRIEND NEVER HAVE BEEN...TRUDEAU IS TRASH KEEP CRYING???
