Trudeau was so successful as PM of Canada, that the Canadian ppl voted him out.. and now I'm expected to believe that he has Americas interests at heart? sounds like he is pleading his case so they don't lose their biggest consumer/investor... he sounds like a child trying to convince his parents that he should be allowed to have their friends spend the night.

Not just Canada are holding the ground against the bullying of the Trump government, also Mexico, China and European countries are holding their grounds. The US, you are big for sure, but now you have only one friend: Putin.

From the moment that US citizens understand that Trump only respect one friend (Putin) \nmaybe, that moment you will start to react

I AM CANADIAN WE LOVE AND GET ALONG WITH ARE AMERICAN FRIENDS BUT YOUR LEADER MUSK SORRY I MEAN TRUMP ARE THE BAD GUYS TRUMP WILL LIE TO JUST TO SAVE HIS SOUL FOR 8 YEARS TRUMP HAS DONE NOTHING BUT LIE TO YOU AND THE WORLD FOR SOME REASON MANY AMERICANS LISTEN AND BELIEVE TRUMP MOSTLY MAGA VOTERS EVERY BODY WILL PAY THE PRICE BUT NOT TRUMP MUSK AND ALL THERE RICH FRIENDS THEY ONLY WANT TO CONTROL EVERY THING TRUMP IS ONLY ABOUT MONEY THATS ALL HE WANTS THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE WORLD TO STAND UP TO TRUMP AND THE GOP, TO THE GOP IF YOU ARE AFRAID OF TRUMP QUIT

Man, I can't be more proud to be Canadian right now. True north, stay strong my families and friends.

To Americans in the comments saying they stand with us: Thank you, but your actions are more effective than a Youtube comment. Contact your local congressperson and make your view on this matter abundantly clear. The only ones who can stop Trump's lunacy are the American people themselves. I don't care if you voted or him or not, support most of what he says, or none of it, you can't support something like this which only hurts both of us, and you should not support your leader becomng Putin's favourite new 'pet.' \n\nGet your heads out of the clouds, look at a map and realize that we've always been right there, a good neighbour that never gives your trouble. Let's be friends again.

Friend doesn’t work this administration. Coz they want to be well known as destabilizer of the new century. America will not be able to support their own country without the economic partners of the world!

This USAF Veteran stands with Canada, Mexico, Europe & Ukraine!!\nWe stand with our friends, not dictators !

Welp, China heres your chance. Notice Russia and China are BRICS but the US thinks Russia is their friends lmao

Trump doesn’t HAVE friends. Doesn’t WANT friends. He only wants pee-ons and money. He is ONLY a VILLAIN. He is only PATHETIC.

Great speech . Canada not bowing down to a dictator elect . Shocking to try and collapse a neighbour , friend and ally’s economy . ?? European ?? countries are on your side .

To all our dear friends in Canada, Mexico and America, I'm so sorry you have to go through this because of that orange lunatic in the White House. Please keep fighting. Europe stands with you! From a worried Belgian friend... ❤

Trump’s not just whacking friends, he’s helping enemies.

America is not the answer to your problems. America, under Russia control, is your problem. Trump IS NOT YOUR FRIEND.

To our European friends, be careful. American hostility looks bad right now. But the bigger danger is Russia disinformation. America is hostile to Canada and Europe because Putin is using disinformation to radicalize the citizens of democratic countries. America has fallen victim and is divided today. Don't let Russia do the same thing to you. I am already noticing European also becoming radicalized slowly. Russian disinformation must stop now or Europe will fall apart the very same way. The very first step is to learn how Russian disinformation works, including Russian bots and trolls. And use social media less.

oh, u say u lost America as a friend, sorry to hear that, no worries--we would like fairness--and u r wrong about this causing inflation,, we're dealing with that bc the prior admin did us that way

I’m sorry our president trump don’t appreciate friends and allies he really love putin because their the same creminal it’s a shameful crazy president trump!!!

how did america end up this ugly way. And today is a Sad day for America not for canafa, remember that. By the way, this is not what trump want this is Putin really want to defeat America. Please Wake up my dearest American friends .

Trump wants a weak America to be easy taken by Russia for his Russian friend! Many Americans are stupid they won't know whats going on! A lack of education in America! True!

This is like lending money to a friend or family member for years and you asking for your money back and they get upset over it. Lol

Just understand Americans you voted in a celebrity as your president you all knew he had no background for the job you all have souled your souls you have strayed away from God you all want the easy way out the shortcuts you all thought that voting him in would make everything easier would cut cost on everything but you we're wrong because God himself will not let you eacape your sins no matter how far you try to run no matter who you think you can bring in to get shortcuts God will not allow and its sad because trump wont hurt for this or pay for it no but the hard working Americans the ones who make this country Go not trump or any of his friends and all of those who believe in him and his agenda who will not be in heaven Amen

American voters have put us in this position. They are not our allies or our friends!

Trump is nobody’s friend.

Do not let the US bully you; being a US friend is fatal.

Build friends than enemies. America needs neighbors and friends. He cant stand alone without it even he has money.

Uk here, we support our Canada friends ?

We don't need Trump for a deal with Ukrain,,we need\nMake a deal with China,,atleast u can trusth them,,they don't betraye their country neighter their friends

MAGA wants to watch America bully its friends and be buddies with Russia because they get their news from Russian bots.

When you turn your back on your friends, they make new friends. Canada will find new friends, and we will be stronger for it.

We appreciate our Northern Friends...most Americans are horrified.

From the uk: Stay strong brothers, the US is no longer a friend. After the London summit last week let’s stick together and keep our friendships strong.\n\nLong live Canada! ??

Price is going up. Inflation is going to surge. GDP is dropping. Interest rate can’t be cut…. No good for anyone except for the billionaires. US is losing its allies and friends!

CANADA was their closest friend .Past tense now.Awful disrespect of Canada by Trump.

The sane Americans stand with Canada. Proud of our Canadian friends who are standing up to the bully who occupies the people's house. Canada, the new leader of the free world!

For me... TRUMP IS ON POINT ...... Canada should do what US has to them to do.... Its best for both parties... You can't be a friend or said friend and you allow negativities to enter the US from your border ..

Trump has no friends left, except Putin

American here. So many of us are so sorry about what Traitor Trump is doing. Hopefully we can be friends again after the US idiot is gone.

Satanic Evil Trump not a republican he stole this party like he stole the election you know that he's a convicted felon , he's a child molester with Jeffrey Epstein , the man that love grabbing women by the p---- , cult leader using religious to get these corrupted religious mega follower's to back him up and Putin's little puppet , humiliating and degrading our friend from Ukraine this list goes on with this American Traitor no more talking take our business to Europe . The America Justice system and Politicians represent the people, who make decisions have turn their backs on us and even their own people in the USA push to have Elon Musk Canadian birth right remove from our great country Canada . Elon not worthy to be even call a Canadian . Oh no we can't forget dear old JD Vance who speaks against gay right and he worn little girl clothes in high school and still today wear makeup around his eyes. And the mega Christian followers , call them leaders sent by God they better start reading their holy bible cause it all written in the holy book..

I’m American, fuck Trump and Elon Musk. I support my brothers and sisters in Canada and across the world! This is bs and this sucks for all of us. We started a war with our friends…Everyone knows real winners win together.

I’m Franco-American and I support Canada. So do all of my American, Canadian and French friends and family.

This is absolutely the worst the USA Canada relationship has been. I lived in the US during Bush2.0 and have many American friends. This isn't personal (unless you continue to support Trump).

This Is A Business Move By Trump, When All These Business Start Going Bankrupt He And His Friends Are Going To Buy Them And They Assets Up.

You Canadians still think Trump is a friend? Trump only has one friend, Putin, and Putin alone!

Americans are our friends, America is not. See you in a few years. Look for better leaders.

It's doesn't matter if we're not mad at American citizens. We shouldn't be looking at Americans as friends anymore. This is not the first time America's tried to take Can and it won't be the last. Americans are not trust worth long term allies. They fk'd over so many countries and there gov only gives a fk about itself.

Canada no friends anymore why? Remeber Donald Trump make Russia great again and the nuclear bombs of Russia are target on USA

I'm Canadian and the US is NOT our friend. I won't forget and I won't forgive.

I have always had a great deal of respect for Canada’s government and Canadians. A very calm, stable & friendly country. Well done for standing your ground!

Canada charges 8% on anything entering their country already. Want to send a friend a gift... 8% of the value. Pot calling the kettle black.

As an American, I feel shame for what our unfit executive team is doing to our country and our relationships with our friends and allies and abandoning the Ukrainians to Putin’s war crimes and immoral war. trump is a morally bankrupt miscreant and an embarrassment to America. Canadian friends , rational Americans will course correct and override this maga extremist scourge..
