Im more than embarrassed by these ridiculous tariffs as an American and Trumps administration has made it more than difficult to support any of these lies they continue to spread

Woo hoo JT! Proud of you. The world is proud of you. Trump has now made life difficult for both sides of the border. Americans and Canadians do not want this for each other. Trump has never lived in the real world, he doesn’t care about families. He’s an old @sshole who only thinks in zero sum games, and that’s not negotiation folks!

Mr.Trudeau is a real inteligent person who remains very calm in such difficult conditions caused by Donald Trump ‼️\nI appreciate and admire Mr Trudeau how he responded to his friend neighbour Donald Trump ‼️\n God bless Canada and his Prime Minister Trudeau with best wishes from Germany ‼️??????✌️??

I feel sick, sad, angry, and scared with everything going on right now. As a veteran, my heart is absolutely broken.\n\nWe're stuck between a rock and a hard place right now. The MAGA refuse to see or believe what's going on. They've been 100% brainwashed. The people in our government who can do something are standing back and laughing us off. It's very surreal. And very few of us have been able to save up enough to move. And moving to another country is incredibly expensive and difficult.\n\nI did not vote for Trump. Many didn't. Those who did are too proud to admit that what's going on is wrong. So long as it punishes people who think differently than them, they're glad to cut off their own arms to do so.

The world is with Canada in this difficult times......but I'm pro russia so don't mention my Goat Putin

There is a way of handling difficult situations and circumstances. This is it. Trump would be so much better if he was a man of few words and calculated actions. You cant handle the country like its a business deal. Its deaper than one move. Its many moves with consequences.

Am I missing something? Hasn’t the Canadian government been pushing higher taxes on its citizens for years now and making everyday living difficult?

Trump said he is going to fight back even stronger…this is really scary…thanks Justin you have been a great Prime zminister during very difficult times..GodBless

Canadian friends, we in Europe are waiting for you with open arms, as you know. Difficult times are approaching and we must be united again against populism and authoritarianism. They shall not pass!

I thought this clown resigned after cheating on his wife??? Canada you can do much better than this tool it's not difficult to understand Americas position so why won't you stop the fentanyl Justin?

I live in the Uk and I still find it difficult to believe these republican senators are going to stand by and let Donald Trump ruin the America economy. And it’s sick that some of these stupid country booky Americans are siding with him. Just sick. The Democratic Party needs to stand up and be counted.

Netherlands here; this is how a good leader sounds which you want to follow. Calm, wel thought out speech, good answers of the questions, easy to understand (no difficult words are used). \nCanada we stand with you! if you guys want to join the European union, you’re welcome.

I appreciate Canada using facts. As an American it is difficult living ruled by a fact-free, fact avoidant, straight out lying Trump Administration.

Well done Trudeau , you are showing your genuine love and character by saying what is right only for the Canadian people and for this very beautiful country Canada. \nStanding with Canadians at this difficult time. Great nations face great challenges and come out of them as united and heads high

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.

As an American born Ukrainian, we stand with Canada, who continues. Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and JD Vance are very EVIL and VILE human beings. THESE 3 CRIMINALS ARE Taking the USA INTO MANY DIFFICULT SITUATIONS. Getting back in to being buddy buddy again with THE WORLDS BIGGEST CRIMINAL AND DICTATOR PUTIN, IS GOING TO BE A BIG ISSUE for Americans. Many have innocent children and civilians have been MURDERED in Ukraine by Putin. Even as we tried several times to talk peace though Putin has proven that he wants NOTHING TO DO WITH A CEASEFIRE AND PEACE!!! TRUMP SHOULD BE IN PRISON LIKE THE CRIMINAL THAT HE IS!!!!

All of this was avoidable. We could have had a reasonable leader use logic and good sense to move our country forward. But no, just enough Americans willingly voted for vengeance, or chaos, or a combination of both. Another group felt it was too damn difficult to do their own research before they cast their vote. And now, everyone will suffer greatly for the mad king's folly.

Awesome speech - kudos! It will be a hard, difficult road, but as Canadians NO backing down!! Sad but some people don’t understand friendship and cooperation!!

I am proud to be a Canadian with Trudeau at the helm at this difficult time.

I know this economic war on Canada will be difficult enough already but I urge my friends north of the border to do their best to fund a massive military expansion as rapidly as possible. Trump is clearly setting the stage and manufacturing excuses so he can invade and force Canada into becoming his 51st state and he's not going to stop with just trying to cripple your economy. Don't make Europe's mistake of thinking Americans are honorable friends and allies who can be trusted to keep their word. We're nothing but a bunch of ignorant, nasty, greedy, white supremacists who hate every other people on Earth. As a US Army veteran, I am ashamed of my country's unprovoked brutality once again.

Donald and MAGA Republicans do not like facts. They like their alternative/lies/delusions. Uncovering and trying to understand anything based on facts is too difficult for their limited abilities .

Honestly his father the former prime minister Pierre Trudeau who was a legend would be so proud of his son right now❤ I don't know why people hate on this man when I think he has done an amazing job during a difficult situation called covid that nobody could predict❤

Foolish people make their own lives difficult, while stupid people make others' lives difficult in addition to their own difficult lives. Long live the Canadians and the Americans.

America…you’re getting taxed on all sides - Canada, China, and Mexico. These retaliatory tariffs are very strategic as well to hit you where it hurts the most. Your farms and food supplies are also going to get hit by lack of workers. I’m so worried for you. Fight back! This man is trying to destroy your country. Follow the money - where it’s being taken from (jobs, Medicaid, etc) and where it’s going TO (tax cuts for most wealthy, contracts for billionaires). The SAVE Act is trying to make it very difficult for minorities and WOMEN to vote. They are trying to basically take over so they can’t be put out of power, only the wealthy get educated properly, the poor go to military service, and they may even start looking at invading other countries. Why create conflict with Canada? To start the narrative that we are evil…and that we must be “protected”. It’s all there, America!! Please wake up!!!

This is a worldwide take down of the world economy for a RESET. JT and DJT are just acting out their roles to bring it about. This isn't difficult.

As a German i support you, Canada and Canadian people! I hope Europe and Canada can help each other in these difficult times. Together we are stronger than some bullies!

As much as I don't like Trudeau and his policies I will give him credit that he has stepped up to the plate during this difficult time.\n\nThank you.

It's difficult, I mean Canadians' disgust, insult and anger at all of these completely unwarranted tariffs is not directed at the American people, it's at the crass, unhinged baffoon Trump who has enacted them, and yet (and this is where it gets difficult) over half of you voted for this obscene idiot as your president! How it is that there would ever been more than a dozen people who would vote for Trump is beyond me; he is NOT an honorable person and has not one redeeming quality. He is a vile, snorting pig, and no, I'm not insulting him, I'm describing him. He has to go.

I am proud to be a Canadian. Our president’s speech very calm and kind, Even the most difficult time. Love Canada and very proud to be Canadian.

Seems like trump wants to destroy America. Prepare for a long and difficult recession.

“Our border is already safe” - yeah cos you ship them over to the US. It will be difficult, but we’ll survive.

One of the lessons that Canada could learn from Singapore is the implementation of a 99-year ownership lease. In societies with high home owner occupancy, it's difficult to introduce property cooling measures without political pushback from majoritarian home owners. A limited term lease allows for renewal within the property market, allowing new entrants and preventing accrual of property capital wealth.

This video is horrible. I don't know what political angle is, but the real problems are very well known and have nothing to do with what you said. First, housing is incredibly difficult to build in Canada because of regulations and land title problems, I.e., you don't own that land, the indians do. On top of that, there is a constant influx of immigrant that require housing that doesn't exist. Children cry because they cannot leave their parents' houses because they can't move anywhere, so they can't find any jobs locally, and they're trapped. There is no will in the canadian government to change these immigration policies, to change the land rules so that people can own land and build houses, or do anything about their incredibly micro managed economy that makes it impossible to do anything. If so, yeah, they go to the US to have a future while Canada stagnants and dies.

As a Canadian I would do anything to become the 51st state\n\nThe country has failed the younger generation and is by far the worst country in G7, by a LONG shot\n\n(Since i want to leave so bad: migrating to the US LEGALLY is actually kind of difficult)

CANADA MUST develop those more REMOTE areas of the nation. Its population is essentially present in an area that resembles the shape of Chile, leaving the majority of the nation extremely underdeveloped. These infrastructure issues are the kinds of things you hear about when discussing the DRC etc. Whatever one may say about the huge problems with Russia's infrastructure, AT LEAST they have developed those more remote areas and have settled population centers in some of the most difficult climatic environments on Earth

Canada can't be blamed, all of this is because of Indian students who go there to work and not study. Because of these lower-class parasites, it has become difficult for genuine students to study abroad.

Its too difficult to understand you omg

When you come from a developing country it is extremely difficult to get a viditors visa much less applying for and obtaining legal immigrant status! \nShe’d probably call ICE on her own relatives!

I leave in Canada since 1992 and it was very difficult to became lendent immigrant and life was very affordable interesting the first house we bought lake front for 48 thousand and townhouse for 58 thousand in Brandford and it was affordable to pay mortgage even i became a widow but now gasoline so expancive rased 3 times so and grosseries prices increased the same .Why we have to pay carbontax ,landtaxes wich became 2500 compaire 350 in 2000? You don't have for whoom complain if you didnt have good service the courts always on contractor's side even you have all evidences about stealing materials .It is so ashamed so rich and nice country became the most expensive to leave !

they would not be crossing if the USA got their own shit together by not having sanctuary cities. Is like a race and a home base. The border cities are the lottery win. This is horrible and difficult to manage because Biden allowed it to grow and organize. Trump has a hard job but an important one.

What she doesn't understand is that once you get deported, it becomes extremely difficult to come back to the US

It's going to be difficult travel to Alaska now or back.

I find it difficult to believe that Canada deployed or even HAS BlackHawk helos....Fake freekin news

It’s not as difficult to expel illegal immigrants as the government portrays it. With today’s technology couple IT guys could handle it. There’s no need to spend millions on the army or fences. There’s no shame in adopting someone else’s productive experience. Just look and learn how it’s done in Saudi Arabia or the Emirates. Lock bank accounts a month before visa expiration until visa renewal, international money transfer upon presentation of valid visa, entry to theme parks - movie theaters - schools- colleges only with US driving license or valid visa, etc

Canada border patrol overseers need to do a better job in securing that part of the border on that side. They can stop those buses and check those planes for them coming into the US. They could do it and they could do better job in doing that they don’t want to do it. It’s not a difficult thing to do use their brain a little bit that they probably have that doesn’t make sense. They’re still coming in from Canada. They’re just not affected if they were then they wouldn’t be coming in or sneaking in by buses.

Preventing illegal immigration turned out to be such a difficult task.

Have ICE agents pull over EVERY bus on the routes to the US and make it difficult to transfer them in. I'm willing to join ICE and donate ALL of my time with absolutely no pay. I love our country and this is way out of control. ??

There use to be a border patrol show for the Canadian border. I always hated that show because how difficult it was to even enter the country to visit. Very very strick and the agents did their jobs well. What happened to those standards. The illegals wouldn’t be crossing the border if Canada kept those strick standards. I learned why the agents were so strick.
