Why don’t people just say it! Trump want to eliminate the Constitution he wants to make us a communist country, he wants to be the supreme ruler, he wants to be the 2nd PUTIN!!

Trump's actions are a dream come true for Russia & China. It will weaken the US and the west.

Mind you trump wants the whole of canada as a state of US

canada is not a friend to the US, canada is a leach who takes as much as they can expecting the US to spend on their military so canada will be protected while spending money on their socialist programs. Living in the 51st state I hope this idiot ford and trudeau cause Trump to take over this state sooner than later....

Sadly this can all be fixed, just rise up and impeach Trump again. Attacking your friends and allies is morally corrupt, but it’s not surprising when watching all the Trump administrations rhetoric on everything else they are tearing down and risking and costing our US friends on all fronts. As a Canadian, I will not be going back to the US until this President and this disgusting rhetoric is gone.

I legit miss having a competent, thoughtful and nononsense leader. We are stuck with the complete opposite. If anything, Trump is taking years off the lives of those of us who make it a priority to stay informed about our government. He needs to go away, ASAP!

PM. YOU'RE A LIAR!! \nWHY DID CANADA HAD TARRIFFS ON US GOODS. YEARS BEFORE Trump put US TARRIFFS on you. \nFunny how this works..\nPM. YOU LOOK LIKE A FOOL WITH ALL YOUR LIES

well said Trudeau. I am a proud Canadian and support my country. Because of this I have started and will continue to buy only Canadian products. Trump is a loser and going to cost the USA a lot of money. I will not travel to the US and that means I won’t even be able to see one of my brothers who lives there, but I support my country and will do what is necessary.

Trump destroyed decades of friendship and cooperation with Canada and Europe. We won't trust US anymore.

All should put taxes to trump not us people but to trump until he leavs white hous

I see that Meloni Joli is wearing her military combat outfit! Is she the 'increase in defense spending' that you promised to Trump. Trudeau is going to give us all a 'reach around'! Now Trudeau has given a sole source contract of 40 Billion to the Quebec company SNC Lavalin to build new high speed train between Toronto and Montreal! That money should have gone right to Defense spending. Meanwhile there is not even bus service between Calgary and Edmonton, two Alberta cities with a combine population of more than 3 million people.

Americans who didn't vote for trump will welcome anyone who will help us to rid our once great nation of the Trump cancer. It's beyond time for CNN to be honest in its coverage. YOU, CNN, helped put him into office with your cowardice and greed.

Because Donald Trump is after our oil, our gas, our metals, our uranium, our rare earth minerals, and our water. He doesn't wanna buy it from us anymore. He wants ownership of it's source.

From Portugal I stand with Canada. Trump has gone too far. Way too far and America is going to pay for this for decades. This is one of the darkest periods in US history and spineless Republicans are standing by and letting it happen

That's really what Trump wanted. No matter the efforts on the border and stopping fentanyl. What have Trump done to stop fentanyl in the US or what have he done to help people get out of their drugs addictions. Have he done an amazing job on that? I don't think so. Does he really care about that or is it just a pretext to just do what he wants.

If you want to stand tall against the most powerful country in the history of Earth, let's see how long you stand. Canada is not an equal. Proud Republicans who support the POTUS should to the best of their abilities boycott Canadian products. USA cannot continue on its current path. Our grandkids will be paying $20 a gallon of milk and $1,000,000 for a run down house. USA needs change and no one until Trump offered any real change. USA saved Europe in WW2 and rebuilt Europe afterwards. If they don't want to be a friend of the USA, that will weaken them, not us

I'm American, I do not support what Trump is doing to our government, and our allies . Thank you Prime Minister of Canada, you must do what you feel us right for your Country.

I never voted for this group of freaks, President musk is out of control, his aid and Colluder, Donald Trump and the Joker JD Vance their personal interest at heart and their own pockets, trillionaire their friends out and screw the rest of us for the people who voted for him in the United States. You also will be affected a man born a privilege and wealth had your back.

Im so ashamed right now of the USA. The country i was born and live in. everyone who voted for this should have done your due diligence. You can help us get out of this or you can help Putin and Trump turn us into a country that is devoid of all the freedoms we have known throughout our entire lives

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.

It’s horrible that all of us In the US have to face the consequences of Trump’s insanity, and be labeled as traitors on the world stage. That this was allowed to happen shows America is a deeply ill nation right now. That so many of us can see this president as an absolute monster, while others as a savior, shows how broken we have become. This is something we alone are going to have to figure out.

Justin may not be liked but this is an example of a politician not only giving straight truthful information but also taking action. Trump thinks bully tactics will give him a negotiation advantage. A tactic he is now applying at a global level. No one will win in this situation due to the bubble of lies that the US public lives and believes is truth. A horrible situation.

Release Luigi to rid us off Trump and Elon

We don't want Trump. Help us get rid of him

Listen Trump lied to Americans he said he don't know project 2025 fired our federal workers Americans are not to blame for Trump lies your issue is with him not the citizens once again he lied to us

Fellow US Americans it’s time to stand up. We cannot allow the Oligarchy to succeed here. Many have been deceived into believing that these men had the US people in mind as they came to power and it has been greatly proven that all Trump and Musk care about is strong arm power to become something anti American. Donald Trump should be seen as the highest risk to our national security today. He wants to weaken our country not make it great, harming our allies opens us up as a target for our enemies. \n\nCanada, beautiful nation, the US American people are so sorry, you have done nothing to earn this treatment. Boycott US goods, use any power you have to fight back against wannabe dictator Trump. Ukrainians, we are so sorry. The greater US People do not want this and we do not want Trump. \n\nUS people, keep boycotting these oligarchs while they leisure, don’t let them rest in peace, they don’t deserve it. We are the ones who are paying while they vacation and dine on our dimes, stolen from us.

Everybody understands but nobody really speak about Trump being hooked by Russian FSB former KGB back in 80s. His order is to destroy alliances in the western world, dissolve European Union, weaken the US. The best agent Russia ever has had.

I have nothing but the up most respect for all of Canada....Trump and his goons are destroying the US democracy. My heart is so heavy. Trump needs to go along with his whole administration!!! They are destroying us!!!

I don’t think the majority of Americans want this. I did not vote for Donald Trump and I’m sure a lot of people that did are regretting their decision. This is so sad and depressing and stressful. God bless us all.

The world is going to make Trump a 2nd class leader. Every country that stands for democracy shouldn’t let Trump fly into their airspace, or let him come to your country. The countries that have laws that don’t let felons into their countries should apply these laws to Trump, you need to show Trump that enough is enough, and you will not bend to his mafia style of governing. If he our you need to communicate it should be done over a secure video communication, and record it in case Trump threatens you, your country, or if he just goes off the rails in general. If he does threaten you, or your country, or goes off the rails you need to broadcast it to the world. There is strength in numbers, and if the US politicians won’t stand up to Trump, then the rest of the world needs to do so.

I just watch mr trump speak with regards to tariff impose on canada mexico and china..he's proud in saying that a lot of foriegn companies will soon build factories and offices in the US. Providing billions of jobs and revenue. He said that if these companies would come to the United States where will be no tariff, lower taxes and easy life for the Americans. My question is: is he trying to kill other countries?? He said Ukriane is gambling with WW3, well i can say its WAR with GUNS..what he is doing is already WW3 using economic saborage...just my opinion...

We need Canada's help to us rid ourselves of this deranged trump

From Australia. Wasting your time Canada. The US don't care anymore. Their boy Trump is what they want. Got him in twice. Have to go with the will of the people.

President Trump want the best for the American people. President Trump wants Canada to secure their borders stop drugs coming over the border. That 5.5 thousand miles long I’m sure these holes in that line. President Trump wants everyone to start paying their share. Canada needs to know they need us more than United States needs them.

Trump has made the US an economic terrorist!

I am so sorry my country has lost its way. I am so sorry this is happening. Most of us wanted peace and balance, and we did not want trump.

go Europe. thanks for being honest. this american wants trump out of office, soon. the working class americans do not have the power, so diappionted with our GOP. they too away from our veterans, our farmers, children of the world, our elderly and us.

US should be isolated after Trump did with UA

He’s the common sense president….helping Russia and blasting allies. Makes total perfect sense, right?! We clearly have our common sense way…thank you Mr Trump for showing us who your real ally is. We needed this lesson for the help we gave on 911 etc. shame on us! I hope we’ve learnt a valuable lesson.

So when do you think Trump will try and send the US military to Russia to to fight against Ukraine?

I wonder if Trump is trying to manufacture a war with Canada to justify us taking them over like he wants. That's about the only thing that makes a trade war with Canada makes sense (not that it's OK)

I can’t believe people voted for Trump, and put us in such danger!

This isn’t about fentanyl. This is trump trying to intentionally destroy the US. As an American citizen, I am sickened and furious over what’s he is doing to my country. Canada, don’t back down. Stick it to the orange idiot.

CNN is full of bots and they are anti American. These comments are all fake propaganda. Thank you President Trump keep the heat on them until they respect us .

Well done, PM Trudeau. You made us proud as Canadians. You said it like it is. Donald, and I noticed you refrained from calling him President Trump because he is certainly not acting like a president, Donald is siding with our enemies, snuggling up to a malicious dictator rather than taking a stand for right and for the common good. He has absolutely no reason to impose tariffs and is actually breaking legal agreements to do so, but we all know that Trump believes he is above the law. If you like this speech, go and listen to Premier Ford of Ontario as he threatens to tariff all the energy which flows into the States or even just cut it off. Nobody wins in this war, certainly not Americans. But Elon and Donald don't care. They are filthy rich and will just plan chaos and world domination in their sandbox while everyone else in the USA takes the hit.

Gotta disagree w/ Mr. Trudeau on one point, when he says Trump is 'very smart'--NO. Otherwise, Trudeau's speech was spot-on, and I love and respect Canada even more now. Most of us Americans cannot be proud of our country; we are held captive by a wannabe dictator and his stooges who are self-serving, vindictive, and UNpatriotic! To gather some semblance of sanity, I am taking the family on a Canadian Rockies tour in late spring--am tempted to not return home again.

Wesley Clark touched on part of what Trump wants - Canada’s North. He doesn’t want to work with us, he just wants it!

we know you guys dont want this nor does us true Americans want it. trump wants this to pretend like hes a tough guy to make him feel like a man for a split second cause deep down he knows hes a disgusting person.

Sir, I appreciate it, but you ain't gotta explain or apologize that you didn't want this. Our US government has lost its mind. What's worse, all the people that voted for that lunatic were brain washed into thinking this mess is good. I can't feel bad for the ones that are already suffering from the consequences. I always wondered how people fall for cult leaders. I know trump ain't a cult leader cuz he ain't that smart. He's a pedo throwing hissy fits and married to a porn chick, has a self-proclaimed couch screwer assistant, and he's leaning on the help of another idiot benefiting from government money, all the while imploding our government processes. This sucks.
