Do you believe this Canadian?? \nHe's all pissed off because he has to pay tariffs on his goods . \nThese countries are so used to getting away with murder, now that Trump put a stop to it , and they have to pay their tariffs, Trump is the bad guy ! \n\nAmerica pays tariffs when we export our goods, do you see us complain?? ...The nerve on this guy ! \nMake canada America 51 st state! \nIt's a good deal ! ????

This is mind boggling absurd. Talk about speedrunning national downfall. MAGA world gonna suffer all of this just as badly as everyone else - they seriously gotta wake up and wack this irrational addled fool on the nose with a newspaper or something, get their guy straight while there's still anything left to salvage.

It's time for us Canadians to stop calling the US an ally. They aren't allies to anyone but the Axis. The US is the bad guy.

Americans are in very bad shape with this Trump guy they have so lamentably elected.

America is now hated - by our allies! We have become the bad guys of history. Nobody can trust us anymore. It's shameful. No matter what one thinks of Trudeau, he speaks well here, and he speaks the truth. Ignore the MAGA Americans and Russian trolls who will belittle him. He's right here, there's no escaping this. Every decent US citizen should be ashamed.

Keep pushing down the little guys, cheeto man. Nothing bad ever comes from that. ^w^

American here,in full support of President Trump. Someone needs to be the bad guy and fix the globalist corruption. I personally never listen to or watch CNN. Canada is in a economic and cultural downfall for a reason. I have never supported Castros Bastard son, Trudeau. I love real Canadians and believe Canada would be much better as a US Territory/ State and hope they get rid of this weak little boy.

What happened to CNN talking about Canada like they’re the ones being the bad guy?? I feel like I’m watching Fox instead of CNN

I used to keep a refrigerator full of beer and a well stocked liquor cabinet. My friends were at my house 7 days a week. I stopped buying beer and boxed up my liquor and all my friends got mad and stopped coming by to visit. Our country has borrowed \n$37 trillion dollars and given a lot away to countries that claimed to be our friends and partners. We stopped giving money away and we are the bad guys? \nYeah I see a parallel.

So the American government protects Canada with our military and cost the American tax paying people billions of dollars to protect this country that we get nothing in return for our protection. You send more product to America, then you take from America.\n But yet America is the bad guy in this, it seems to me. That Canadians. to step up in all of these point and maybe America would not have to put tariffs to help us as taxpaying citizens have a lower tax Is four tax paying citizens because. Our taxes go to help protect the canadian people

We are all living in strange times! The bad guy (Putin) is defended like he’s the good guy and the victim (Zelensky) is criticized like he’s the aggressor. This is so weird and negative like an episode of the Twighlight Zone! I think I can understand how Trump is viewing things. Bill O’Reilly seems to know how Trump thinks. Nevertheless, things are upside down! USA voting at the UN with North Korea and Putin and Belarus and against the EU and UK and NATO alliance nations … against the victim Ukraine? This is unheard of! Yet this is so ironic because Leonid Brezhnev, who was the USSR leader, when Russia invaded the sovereign nation of Afghanistan, and Vladimir Putin was a young KGB agent at that time, working for Brezhnev, is now in his position as leader, and he invaded Brezhnev’s sovereign homeland of Ukraine. Brezhnev must be weeping from hell and regretting his invasion of Afghanistan! Crying from hell, seeing his servant, Putin, in his seat of authority, and invading his homeland like he did to Afghanistan, I’m sure Brezhnev regrets but it’s too late now. He’s burning in hell and he can’t get out of hell! \n\nThe bad deal that Clinton and Yeltson and John Major dealt to Ukraine in the 1990s when they moved all of her nuclear weapons to Russia was like declawing the Ukrainian cat and now the cat can’t defend herself against aggressors because she has no claws to defend herself from aggressive attackers!\n\nCanada and Mexico are our friends not our enemies! China and North Korea still idolize the USSR/CCCP flag and Soviet Union hammer and sickle. Putin is a thug and gangster like Joseph Stalin. Everyone forgot what happened to Alexander Litvinenko except for those like John Bolton. \n\nWe are all living in perilous times! The wrongdoer (Putin) is called good and the victim (Zelensky) is called bad! This is so negatively bizarre and wrong! Isaiah 5:20 warns against this! Putin is not pure evil but he’s definitely not a good guy! He’s a gangster and thug like Al Capone! I think President Trump is walking on a tight rope by trying to make a good deal with Putin. And that tight rope spans from one high rise building to another - the senate and house chambers of the US legislature. The midterms are coming soon and if President Trump loses the house and senate, that tight rope could snap! And all those shock and awe executive orders etc. could come back to haunt him like a boomerang thumping his head.\n\nNever in my wildest imagination would I ever imagine Canadians harboring bad feelings towards the USA! This is 180 degrees opposite of how things were when Ronald Reagan and Brian Mulroney were in the political arena!

This guy is a part of the whole freaking problem. Just look how bad Canada is doing.

I hate rooting against my own country but I hope Canada stands tall and brings the fight to the US. We are inarguably the bad guys in this situation.

Well... Last administration that you liked a lot screw us bad, while lying thru their teeth that our economy is strong. I don't care anymore. Screw you. You're a pathological liar as well, so bring it on tuff guy. We'll see I guess

trump cant read. guys. this is bad. idiocrazy was supposed to be a comedy.

It's sick isn't it? America and Russia have become allies. I thought USA was the other side but they are joining Russia. Canada, UK Europe, Japan and other ASEAN countries are the good guys. USA China Russia bad.

Trump got a plan don’t you worry this guy here is trying to make you feel bad but he has been cheating us

We are the bad guys now.

Awesome speech by Tredeau, and im not a Trudeau at all. Best speech I've heard in a long while.\nAmerica got duped by Russia.... trump is on russia's side... a long time enemy. No one remembers russians as the bad guys? I do.\n They will brain wash USA for pro russian propaganda. Canada is also russias enemy.... russias knows this so they get trump in to attack canada so russia has better influence in the arctic with USA's backing.

As soon as Trudeau or any other Canadian Liberal MP says, “Let me be crystal clear,” or refer to clarity, you can be sure that there is dishonesty happening! This guy has been working on Canada’s destruction for 9 years. He has given away Billions of taxpayers hard earned dollars to those of his choosing, as though it were his to give. He has been financially running Canada into the ground with the help of his financial advisor, Mark Carney. He has let The Canadian Armed Forces disintegrate for lack of funding, while choosing to refuse payment to NATO and those who help to defend Canada. He and his Government have been involved with billion dollar scandals and have become a major force of “Legalized Crime!” Now he wants to lay the blame for his poor leadership on the US. Unfortunately, many Canadians don’t see the truth! The Canadian News Media support the Government and suppress the truth by backing the Government Propaganda and by twisting the truth into untruth! It’s a childish game being played by an entitled child who doesn’t care about the people he was supposed to be leading. I would imagine, that if their Conservative Party Leader Poilievre wins the upcoming election, he will be able to straighten out many of the troubles that have been caused by the World Economic Forum Puppets and their agenda. I doubt that the Canadian People are in favor of the agenda of having nothing and being happy. What foolishness the elites expect people to believe. I’m sure that our Government will be able to get it all ironed out when Canada gets a leader that really cares about their people and not about those fake Carbon Taxes. It’s very interesting to watch what’s going on up in Canada! Interesting but sad, because they don’t have the ability to impeach a bad, unethical leader…

I dont know. Twice , Ive met Canadians down here in the states. And right off both times they were complete assholes to me. Not just me.but our country The one guy I tried make friendly conversation and I mentioned I was going to a race tomorrow and he goes off on America and their racing , americans and their gasoline.Liked he walk here lmao..what an asshole..just rude ..I dont feel bad for Canada one bit. Both times...ASSHOLES!

Hey, this guy ain’t so bad.\nMaybe he should be US President

So its ok for them to tariff us but if we fo it we are the bad guys ?

What a disorienting disconnect - to realize you're with the bad guys, and there's nothing you can do about it. This is how anti-fascist Germans must have felt in 1938. Maybe rational Americans could put up their hands and march to the border, begging to be taken in and waving white flags. If the Canadians turn us away, they'll at least be polite about it.

Canada is already owned by USA. All our major businesses are American owned. We even sold our Fighters Jets, oil, lumber and natural resources for pennies. The Canadian people need tax cuts. The native Canadians live without clean water in Reserves all across northern Canada in third world conditioms. All the goverment projects go to mafia groups who run the construction industry and tied to federal governments. Who is the bad guy? I dont know...but we the peasants pay for it while they steal and shift it to us.

It takes a bad guy to make the sacrifice for the better of good. Thank you for your silent work !

Didn't this guy stepped down just recently, what's taking so long?.... Also, who wrote his speech?..... Not bad. On the main subject I want to say, where are the billionaires and the famous millionaire's thoughts on this matter. People need to stop buying/consuming sh*t from the rich

Haha suck it up. Canada has always had tariffs on USA. 270% on milk is just one example, and well over 100% on other products. Now they act like we are the bad guys? Why didn’t he lower canadas tariffs on USA?

NO ONE in American asked for Tarrifs. These are being called for to line the pockets of the Rich. They won't help the middle or lower class. I don't care if you are on the Right or Left. This is cetianly a BAD decision benifitting NO ONE but the Rich. Please guys lets try to get some this to stop before it's too late.

Who cares about what this knuckle head said. He did so bad for Canada the guy announced his resignation with a ridiculous amount of time before election time.

What a hypocrite, he also decide to do that to the Canada. Like if he had the upper hand... This guy has to get out!! Trudeau, what a bad person and a liar.. he does exactly what he said.. hypocrite.. this guy is alao desire war over his people...

Omg this guy is an embarrassment! I feel bad for Canada

Canada has been sucking on the teet of America for too long. They need to be their own country and stop relying on the US. They can't defend themselves without us. That alone should require some kind of compensation. Everyone including Canada has taken advantage of the USA for to long and when we stick up for ourselves we're the bad guys

did yall forget, these are reciprocal tariffs meaning they've been doing this to us for years. so your neighbor charges you every month for years, and you finally decide to do the same to him and you're the bad guy. no, not right

Trump is looking for an excuse to go to war, so he is escalating. He wants to invade Canada the same way Russia attacked Ukraine for the Black Sea and argicultural land. The US is now communist, not Marxist, but in the lane of Stalin and Putin. Wake up America, you are becoming the bad guys. You are aligning with the Axis powers.

Then close ur boarders to criminals bringing in fentanyl. And to the fake Americans who don’t support America go to Canada and live. And for the record u will all see how bad zelensky is he could have stoped the war by agreeing not to try to join nato. And can’t account for millions of dollars. And was warnd the meeting was just about the mineral deal because if we put troops in Ukraine Putin who is still very dangerous will see it as a act of war. And he said he will protect American intrust in Ukraine basically saying if Putin breaks a peace deal we will be there to help respond. But zelensky took the moment with the media to pressure trump into saying we will put troops there which could start ww3. And if u trust Canada over the US ur an idiot. This guy doesn’t care about his own country. Look at the First Nation people. And how migrants get more then the people who have been there for generations. And people and fentanyl is still coming in.

You know it’s bad when Trudeau is a good guy again ?… he’s honestly a huge asset that we need because it’s Trudeau… you cannot tell Trudeau otherwise, he has his opinions and his opinions for Canadians is nothing short from patriotic. As Canadians we need to love everyone here, this is a fight against the most powerful can on Earth.

This guy does not speak for all Canadians here in Canada. He had every opportunity every opportunity to make things better with Donald Trump. They hate Donald Trump so now they use the media to attack Trump and make him look bad Justin Trudeau you’ve done nothing for Canada for the last 10 years, but put us in debt put us in financial problems put us in Criminal problems. We have rapist here that we brought to Canada terrorist that live in Canada. We are laughing country because of what you’ve done so don’t sit there and make yourself look great and brave and think that Canada’s behind you you better think again you’ve destroyed Canada now you wanna be a big man up there and podium and talk how you’re talking that you think you know Canadians and Canadians are speaking out well that’s a lie if you truly mean what you mean get rid of the carbon tax in Canada let’s start lowering gas prices in groceries. Has nothing to do with them. American people let’s start growing our own stuff in Canada that that been discussing many times and that you’ve just throw it out the window bring back our pipeline. How about that to increase cost and money in Canada again you won’t do that. We’ll have a fight with Donald Trump now I’ll tell you you won’t win. God is in control. Evil has no authority anymore and there’s nothing that these evil leads can do they’re swamp is being drained as we speak.

So what some people think it’s ok for Canada to have tarrifs on US products. Then when we put tariffs on their products we’re the bad guys B S.

Please clarify why JT decided to send more aid to the Ukraine just a week before Trump was to negotiate a peace deal with Zelenskyy ? I think Canadians need to wake up \nAnd see who really are the bad guys .Too bad we don’t have a strong leader like the US .Little too late to be playing tough guy after he killed our country dont you think ??

Thanks Trump, appreciate you making America looking like the bad guy. I didn't vote for you but we all get to feel the pain

It's so bad that you have to paint Trump's belly in order not to make things worse just because you're telling the truth.\n\nAnyway, I have a lot of respect for Trudeau, he's a REALLY smart guy. I wish we had him as chancellor in Germany, instead of Darth Merz Vader who unfortunately awaits us here for the next 4 years. But well, one look at the USA is enough to see that it can get much, much, much worse.

Lets see Trump talk like this to his people....It's hard to deal with someone who is constantly changing the goal-posts on the fentanyl crisis (whatever that is...)to other petty things. Trump is a very dumb person, who really is not in control of his administration. Musk is the real guy running the show going by what he's been doing. As a Canadian, Americans have always been looked at as my friends who I would have no problem standing beside if things went real bad. your Mussolini dictator is not doing anything good for your country, he is trashing it before your eyes.\nSo long comrades, enjoy the free vodka provided by Russia.

Yet, a majority of Canadians are so full of hatred themselves and want to replace Trudeau with a Trumper named Pierre Poilieve. This is how stupid people are all over the world, this is not just a US thing. The Trump propaganda forced Trudeau to step down for no real reason. He let in too many immigrants yes,,but so did every other world leader, thats it, but enough for the Canada Trumpers to throw away free health care. Trunpers in Ontario just won a landslide with Dictator Doug Ford.\nOnce Pierre Poilieve takes charge we will be paying for healthcare and a 51st state. \nCanadians are making the same mistake due to fake news and propaganda by Trumpers/Truckers. Those Canadians dont want free health care anymore, they want Pierre Poilieve's hate filled agenda over a smart well spoken guy like Trudeau. Just watch and see...Canada is about to f up bad..

everyone, even i remember when you block founds for Truckers who was fighing with you in Covid, it was disgraceful, against democracy...who is really bad guy here? Justin, please, just resign and make space for big boys to talk

Trump never aligned with Putin. This is grossly spoken. Trudeau is mad about tariffs. We get charged tariffs by so many countries but suddenly we are the bad guys? Get real.

as an american i am disgusted of our nation and its leaders. we are now the bad guys.

Trump is just doing what Putin wants him to. The plan is to ally with the bad guys. Our govt will be broken and empty, except the military, and Putin will come in and take over and use our military to takeover other countries. I know that sounds like a bad movie but nothing shocks me anymore and I can’t think of any other reason for America to be pissing off our allies - the good guys. I was in Canada over the weekend and I really didn’t want to come back. ?

That woman saying antiamericanism as a Canadian we aren't anti anything but Trump. CNN is now not saying anything bad against Trump now they use soft language you guys used to be the good guys. For the record China has sent delegates to Ottawa about byd and taking the tariffs off the car manufacturer and there is talk about 100 percent tariff on teslas. Long live Canada Slava Ukraine from Summerland bc Canada

Trump made the world look at the USA as the Bad guys for siding with Russia ??
