I'm an American. I'm so sorry for the shameful actions of Trump. So many Americans have nothing but love for our friends in Canada. I voted against this. I'm heartbroken. ?

We stand with Canada, Mexico. Not all Americans are fools. We are sorry

Wow I'm sorry Canada! This is not what we want either!! Very embarrassing to be an American right now. ?

If you are Canadian, I would leave the USA immediately because there are American Hillbillies that are stupid enough to run you off the road. Sad day in America..so sorry Canada!!

I’m so sorry you have to deal with an ass hat dictator we, the American people, are living with in the US. This is not my president. It’s hideous!!!!

The Orange Julius did this — not the American people — and we are very sorry that he is not a) smarter, b) nicer, c) even occasionally truthful, and d) loyal to his oath of office. We can't blame Canada for trying to teach the twit a lesson, even though we don't think he's teachable. We can only hope for the best.

As a mortified American, to Canada, I am so sorry. ?

Sorry, Justin. While you’re speaking to real Americans, this will never be shown to the cult that has infiltrated us.

I’m American and I love Canada, he is not our president, he is a terrorist and a dictator. I’m so sorry Canada. The American people are under attack and our allies are at risk too. I pray for the freedom of all people and I’m sorry.

We are so sorry! So many of us Americans do not stand with DT. It hurts me so when I hear those words, “America has done” this or that. It’s not us, it’s HIM and his sugar daddy EM. I did not vote for him. He is a shameless liar and more, and I cannot believe this is our reality. Disgusting! \nSending love to Canada ☹️

I am so sorry Trump started this. It isn't fair for us Americans that want peace. I never thought I would see this in my lifetime.

A lot of we Americans are so sorry and sad. I love you, Canada ??You are what a great country looks like❤

I am an American, trapped with this Government, who I did not vote for. I do not blame Canada for your decisions. King Trump is evil, convoluted, self-centered, racist, and convicted felon. I am embarrassed for our GOP decisions. I am fearful. I am sorry.

I’m an American and I’m embarrassed and appalled at Trump and our government. I’m so sorry. I’m scared. I’m overwhelmed. I’m afraid of what this is going to do to all of us, but I support you Canada.

I'm so sorry Canada, from a sincere American. God bless you guys.

As an American, I do not want this either! I did not vote for this and I am feeling very helpless. I am a NEVER TRUMPER. Trump is a bully and a narcissist and I don’t think there is any reasoning with this man. You have to stroke his ego and I wouldn’t blame you for not playing games with our impetuous childish President. Additionally, many are stuck in the illusory effect better know as the big lie effect. If you tell a lie often enough it becomes “true”. Narcissists are dangerous people especially when they are given power. We love you Canada?? I am so incredibly sorry.

Reassuring to see so many country leaders talk so professionally in the wake of the Clown leader of the Circus in the US, have so much respect for Trudeau and the people of Canada, I feel so sorry for the American people your leader is an embarrassment to you and the world, regards from Down Under??

As an American citizen... I am sorry for this idiotic trade war, I am sorry for the way our government treated Zelensky, and I hope that they can figure out a way to treat other governments with respect.

As an American, I'm sorry, world. I voted blue

I recall a date now known universally as 9-11. Aircraft bound for USA landing in my home province because US airspace was shut down. 17 large aircraft parked in St. John's (where I live), and 27 parked in Gander (much smaller town, but has a big airport). I've lost track of whatever other aircraft had to find a home and a home for their passengers. Today, over two decades later, this is a stain on the US executive. Not Americans, the executive office. Congress took a powder. The executive office should represent Americans, but it doesn't. I feel sorry for the American citizens who will suffer.

He thinks we want it. He’s wrong. I don’t I’m sorry it’s happening. I’m sad I’m an American. As a Christian I will be praying earnestly and to Canada- I Am personally sorry for stupid people ?

Canadian here(Quebec) I feel sad for all the Whiskey industries in Kentucky, those workers didn't deserved the counter-effects of the tarifs. Everything can be done with respect & diplomacy, but it's not the road President Trump took. Fellow Americans, I am very sorry about that, rest assured that us here, we make the difference between your President & all of you.

As an American, I’m SO sorry that Trump is doing this. MANY of us did NOT vote for him and are HORRIFIED by the way he’s rapidly dismantling our democracy. ?

I feel so sorry for all of my American friends. I will be broke but Canada will still be part of the Allies and we will not be partnering with Evil.

Canada, I and the majority of Americans stand with you in this. We abhor Donald Trump. We are protesting. We are pressuring our leaders to stop this nonsense. We will purchase Canadian goods whenever possible to support your econony over our own. We will do more if it is required. It has been a long time since the American left has had to rise and fight... but we will fight. \n\nI am sorry... so very, very sorry... for what the ignorant minority who elected Trump has done to you and to my own country. The good news is, it will not last forever. We - the educated, empathetic, democracy loving Americans, raised on the stories of past heroes who stood up against corrupt governments - we will make sure this ends. The sooner, the better. Stay strong. We're fighting for you too.

Sorry as a American this is our life's at risk .keep your proud stance.proud stance for Canada.We are in tears losing our great country to criminals God Bless Canada we our scared stressed for our social security, health care and our anger at the thugs taking away our relationship our fear to keep breathing and enjoy our past relationships Thankyou for your love to all people God is good God help us !???????? Jim

I wish i could move to Canada??? sorry neighnors..i am American and I am in shock..also sad.

I’m an American & I just can’t believe this is happening to us & you! I’m so ashamed of this human running our country! I’m so sorry……

American here, I’m with you Canada! I’m sorry this is happening. I wish this would all just get better.

Just to be clear…. Most Americans DO NOT WANT THIS! We love you Canada, we do NOT trust Trump! we are embarrassed, ashamed and humiliated. We are so sorry!

Most Americans are deeply sorry for the way Trump is treating you and the rest of the world ?

Sorry but 50 percent of Americans are stupid. I used to love your country. No longer

As a candian i feel that trump is Ta bigot, a tyrant and clearly significantly cognitively impaired. I feel for the American and Canadian people that this tyrannical dictator has and will impact. Ill be making sude to avoid purchasing from us companies wherever possible. His behavior is appalling. Absolutely disgusting and there is no justification. What a sorry excuse for a human being.

As an American, I am sorry. I fully support any action you must take against our current government. Please remember it is less than 30% of our country that is MAGA. Most of us support you. Thank you for such an eloquent and measured address.

Canada ?? we are sorry for this pathetic behavior , our pathetic government ! And as an American I’m sorry !

Sorry Canada, many Americans are embarrassed and pissed off by Trump's inane traitorous, harmful agenda, stand firm against Trump, Musk, MagaMuskRats, the billionaire class, all the spineless cowardly GOP politicians in Congress and the POS quiet corporate Dems. We need more like Raskin, Crockett and AOC and fewer establishment Dems like Schumer and Jeffries. Always vote Progressive Blue and RESIST, PROTEST, BOYCOTT, REBEL, DEMONSTRATE!

As an American, I gotta say… we really shouldn’t be doing Canada like this. I get it when it comes to China and other countries, but Canada?! I do not approve! ?? and ?? are basically besties regardless of the government drama and whatever substances may be involved.\n\nMeanwhile, Mexico is out here like, “Hello? Focus on me!” ??\n\nAnd in true Canadian fashion… “I’m so sorry, eh!” ??

Amen mr President of Canadian friends so sorry for the mistreatment of all our good neighbors and friend! Millions of Americans are in shock by this crazy money hungry act???? God help America we need A truthful leader only Jesus can do this ????

As an American I just want to say to Canada I am so sorry for the ignorance of trump. God bless you all

Love that simple statement;” make that make sense”. As an American that is what I have been trying to do since his first presidency. I am truly sorry to all Canadians for this buffoon and his ignorance. I have no reasoning for those that had voted him in to office A SECOND TIME!!!!

AS an AMerican and single mom self employed 57 year old woman in AMerica I don't want this either and didn't support Trump or his agenda. I am trapped here and suffering like so many and preparing for complete financial collapse at this point. So sorry Canada. We didnt want this either

I’m sorry Canadians?. I don’t understand how my fellow Americans voted this guy back into the WHouse. ?

I feel sorry for the Americans. They will suffer from this, they will be isolated. Many do not understand this. But you know? Canada's gas and oil is welcome here in europe.

Canada...\nI am so, so sorry. I am humiliated, horrified, appalled, embarrassed, furious, and so so sad. Please know it isn't all of us. I am a Detroiter who has spent half her life in Ontario and Quebec. I will continue to buy Canadian products and will spend as much of my American money in Canada as I possibly can. I support Canada and encourage you to do whatever it is you need to do. I love you, Canada!

Trudeau I am sorry but no one can make sense of what the Orange one does!! We understand. We liberals are aware of the damage that this administration has and will do!! I am Sorry as an American and hope that you can forgive the people who decided to cause all of this terror!!!??

Go Canada, the UK is with you. I'm sorry for the decent Americans caught up in this. Please fight to remove this vile regime from office. Trump, Vance and Musk are a dream for Russia and other dictatorships.

It is difficult to be an American right now and I apologize to all Canadian's for this non sense. I am sorry and stick to your guns!

Wow, what an intelligent speech from Mr. Trudeau! (compared to the orange, stupid, crazy old man's liars).\nWe stand with Canada and Ukraine. Sorry, American people! We boycott all kinds of American products: NO Tesla, NO vacation in the USA, NO Apple, NO Netflix, NO Lewis, Nike, McDonald, Coke...

I'm sorry Canada ??, from US.\n\nThis war is Trump/Musk vs American people, Canada, Mexico, and the whole world around.

As an American, thank you Canada. I am so sorry. You are right we will be hurt the most.
