Im an American, but I won't listen to a Canadian who played blackface and opposes freedom of speech. Keep the drugs in your own country. By the way, i thought you resigned or were voted out. Can some of you Canadians help me out with this?

Just to be clear, not all of us Americans voted for this dipshit. We're still suffering from his first Presidency.

As an American I am appalled by the actions of my government. I stand with you Canada, our great friend and ally. I did not vote for and do not stan with the fascist authoritarian clown running our country into the ground.

Drumpf's best friend is the Russian monster.he is screwing American business people,farmers,builders, and every other American citizen.Thank you for speaking the truth,his worshippers will not believe you,but the rest of us know what is truth.\n And I love Canada,God bless and protect you all.I did not vote for the orange menace,he is now trying to blame the effects of his decisions on the previous administration.

I’m American & I did NOT VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP! I stand with you Canada! Do what you need to do!?

Americans wake.up take your orange blob from.his thron.! You voted yourself a luni who will whack you all with his manipulativ billionaires

As an American, I am so sorry Canada for this mess. Please know a majority of us are suffering and never wanted this nor voted for it. I love you Canada and stand with you.

I’m an American but I didn’t vote for him…I am glad to hear that you will not bow or kiss the ring ..not all Americans are ok with this ?

Glad I can say I did not vote for Trump. This was an amazing and intelligent speech. The Americans that did not vote for Trump are living in an undeserved hell right now.

But the foolish American Republicans voted for Trump and thought they were fighting against migrants. Now they see Trump is chaos

Trump is not an American!\nWe the people are made nauseous by this aberration! I am so sorry that my fellow Americans voted for this loser!

Guess Canada wants to wake a dragon ?, like dont think Americans won't out produce you , we the majority voted for this . Save your gas lighting for some one else we dpnt buy garbage here .

As an American, how can I transfer my nursing license here in the States to Canada to work up there? I've never voted for Trump or Vance (or even, Elon). I work and volunteer and even participate in peaceful protests here in the States - I am ashamed of our felonious commander in whatever.

Thank you for honesty and eloquency PM Trudeau. While your tariff will hurt us, I understand this criminal residing in the peoples house is causing this response. Please know many Americans are disgusted with the convict, and the ignorant, kool aid drinking ass-holes that voted for him.. and yes that includes those evangelicals that claim to love God...

Can the governor of our 51 state please be our POTUS? That dude can speak at least 2 languages and our “leader” can’t even speak English. Trudeau cares more about Americans than Cheeto Mussolini does. We’ve got an overweight pile of $hit who wants to let the Russians control the world instead of the ??. All I can say to the world is, sorry! I tried. I didn’t vote for the grifter in chief.

Speaking as an American in the Detroit area, we are sorry this is happening! Contrary to what the Trump administration is saying, the majority of Americans DID NOT vote for him or this utter BS. We are watching in horror. We know Canada, Mexico and Europe are our friends and allies, no matter what spin Trump spews out

I cannot see any sanity, logic, or forward looking, with putting tariffs on our allies. It is hurtful to everyday Americans. Who benefits from this? The wealthy, like t-rump, and his cronies. Meanwhile the traitorious Supreme Court works on bending the law to suit t-rumps bidding. We are early in this presidency. If you think inflation was a very serious concern of t-rump or the repubies, why doesn't he fix it right now? What he is doing is causing inflation to skyrocket with no end in sight. Those of you wealthy who think t-rump is right are a leach who feeds off of taking from those who have little to nothing. If t-rump wanted to he could fix it on day one like he said. He has no idea what he is doing - laying off thousands of federal workers. He wants to bring jobs to America by becoming a traitor to our very faces with putin. you repubes are all traitors to what the Flag stands for. Those jobs won't come in the next 4 years. If there are no manufacturing plants in the U.S. we will have to build them. How long will it take to build these factories and tool them up to accept workers? None of what the repubes agenda is set about bringing jobs to America - the way I see it, we are losing jobs now. The factories won't be ready for years. You who voted for this freak - I hope you suffer the most.

Go Justin!\nThis American with Quebequois ancestry supports you.\n\nHe did not, would not EVER get my vote.

Say it loud Prime minister Trudeau!\nSAY IT LOUD!\nI'm an outraged American citizen!\nHe needs to hear this from Leaders from the world over! \nI voted for Harris and I'm outraged at Trump's behavior toward world leaders!

Who vote trump be president is represented who you are idiots American people

Please know that half of us did not vote for this monstrous government and can’t comprehend the stupidity of US voters who believed the lies of right wing media .We are so confounded on what to do.We fantasize about Canada and Mexico invading the US and dividing governance between you as Americans clearly can’t govern themselves.

Embarrassed to be American. To Canada and the rest of the world, all Americans did NOT vote for this. He is burning our country to the ground

Many Americans still consider Canadian our friendly neighbor. Many of us did not vote for that demented psycho conman felon. Do what needs to be done including turning off the power at the White House. We can only wait it out until our next election for senators and congress. MANY republicans are already furious and will vote blue.

The best American mistake was when they voted for the old arrogant President. His minions will destroy America and other friendly allies will become foes.

AMERICAN HERE , I AM A DIEHARD REPUBLICAN BUT I DIDN'T VOTE FOR THE AMERICAN PSYCHO NAMED TRUMP , GO CANADA GO

And Mexico's President is about to release her own retaliative measures. Let's brace ourselves Americans, we the ones that didn't vote for this convicted felon. At least the dumb MAGAets will pay the high prices too.

Really over 50 percent vote for this. It would be funny if It's not so sad in the same time. For now, it will work for the USA, but the boomerang will fly back. Your Partner realize now finally that the US is not trustful anymore. They need a bit of time to prepare but if it's done, America is isolated (ok Russia and North Korea will still like you). The world continue rotating, with or without the USA. But maybe It's what the American wants so it's fine. But Trump's territorial claims are a shame. Regards from Germany.

You're far too articulate and intelligent for 30-35% of Americans. Republican party started attacking our educational system in Reagan's administration (bc they don't want educated voters - who don't fall for the misinformation and FUD the R's use to get votes).

I AGREE with you, Trudeau. Being an American, i did NOT vote for Trump. I'm disappointed by the masses in America that did. Shame on those who wanted (and still believe) Trump.

Trump is a Putin puppet….and congrats to the American public for voting him in…now you all can suffer the consequences.

I only wish all the Americans that stand with Canada now would have stood at the polls and voted against Trump.

Wow, Trump is seething with jealousy right now. This guy is everything Trump is not, young, strong and articulate. Not a weak minded simp and boot licking Russian sympathizer. I, as an American that served, can only wish our leader with this kind of integrity and character. Sadly, what we have is the worst moron his followers, like the brainwashed dolts they are, voted him to the highest office in the land, responsible for the wellbeing of this country.\nWe are doomed as a country if we don't do something to stop the orange idiot!

All of Europe is on your side, dear Canadians. The majority of Americans voted for Trump, thus abandoning a centuries-old tradition of reason and ethical standards. But the free world still exists. Let's work together. Europe is here and Europe likes you. :)

As an American, I voted AGAINST all of this. It boggles my mind how people chose Trump. Make it make sense.

Americans will never accept Canada as a so called 51st state unless they vote for it. Canada is not a dictatorship. We Americans don't buy or conquer land from fellow democracies, only dictatorships. If there is an attempt the US Congress and the current states will block that.

You know I'm'm reading all these comments about how much people support Canada and admire their prime minister and it makes me wonder who in America voted to give Donald Trump a 2nd term? How is it that he won the popular vote and the electoral vote? Either something is seriously wrong with our election system or Americans are bipolar!

I LOVE Canadians, they are the FRIENDLIEST people but don’t make em mad though! Everybody Knew Criminal Selfish Anti American Trump wasn’t SHIT when they Voted for him! I HATE THAT DIRTY BASTARD!??

Don't put all Americans in this. Not everyone voted for the turn coat in the office. We, the people that didn't vote him, are stuck, baring witnesses to our democracy being torn apart.

MAGA nuts don’t care what Trump does , long as it helps their selfish interests. Most Americans love Our neighbors . Trump and Vance are not friendly people , they are basically Adolf and Himmler reincarnation from another time. A time of great racial hate and greed. All MAGA wants is cheap energy , food , and get rid of anybody not like themselves ……Trump encourages these low brow people promising to eliminate anybody who doesn’t agree with his base of voting power. Trump,fancies himself a King and wants the world to bow down to his policies. He is one of the, we are many , let’s not let Trump copy Putin s Russia.nightmare.

what a clear articulate speech what a speaker no lies no bullying no dictating. The American people were duped in their voting and now they will suffer.

I'm an American and support the actions Canadians are taking to secure the border between Canada and the United States. I did not vote for Trump this time but to my disappointment he won the election and now we have to deal with him his administration and the issues he is causing. I only pray we will make it through this.

I, an American dont want this either. Further , i did not vote for this tangerine turd. He is no good for America and the world as a whole.

I finally have respect and admiration for Trudeau. I wanted him to resign, but not if he can beat Trumpler at this trade war. I'm so very sorry to you Americans...at least to all the ones who did NOT vote for that Clownident.

As an American, I stand with you Canada ❤. We did not want this. We should be united with our neighbors and not with dictators. Once the ppl that voted for this guy wake up (if ever) the pendulum will swing. Unfortunately we’re on this horrific rollercoaster ??‍♀️ right now. Truly sorry ?

Trump is a vile disease to our world. He does not care about America or American people. He cares only for his own selfish agenda. America is a laughing stock around the world due to the stupidity of the Americans who voted for this pervert Trump.

I’m a NEVER Trumper. A ?in a red state. Trump does not represent me nor my morals and convictions. I was physically ill watching him and his pup Vance absolutely bully President Zelenskyy. I’m sorry that this is what half of the country voted for. I’m disgusted that I had family and friends who refused to see him for who he is. I’m so sorry to all those who didn’t vote for him yet we will also be aligned with him. I greatly appreciate you Prime Minister Trudeau. Thank you to those in other countries that realize not all Americans wanted this. Not all Americans bowed a knee to him. Thank you for your kindness.

Hi from Canada... When you look at a long line of MAGA't Zombie voters and you see them all smiling and collectively they make one complete set of teeth and then you allow them to vote in their golden pig and make him president, this is what you get! I realise that everyone that is good and decent in the USA bent over backwards not to look down or insult MAGA't types for fear of further alienating them, all it has done is backfired both upon good and decent Americans but upon the cult of Orange Jesus as well. So now we're left with this dystopian mess. Long past time to take the gloves off and get into the fight. Pretend you're all hockey players playing the Russians... leave it ALL on the ice!!!

I'm an American whose ancestors came here in the 1700s. I apologize and I did not vote for Trump who should have been put in prison a long time ago. Everyday he does something against our constitution. Even an idiot gets it right sometime. But he is not a complete idiot. He is an evil savant.

Americans stand with Canada. I didn't vote for Trump/Vance/Elon ticket. The Whitehouse doesn't care about Americans. Thank you for speaking to us. Fentanyl is an excuse to give people who make $376,000 or more a tax break. Unacceptable.

Canada and Mexico have always been family, as well as UK and Europe close friends and allies. Trump is by far the daftest president in the history of our nation, he’s destroying our economy and the well-being of the American people. All he’s doing is making the rich richer and getting rid of the middle class making families struggle. \n\nSo much for the equality and prosperity of our country. \n\nI really wish President Zelenskyy would not sign over any mineral l rights to the Ukraine. I felt embarrassed and completely appalled as an American for the treatment that he received. \n\nThe duped people who voted for Trump are now getting what they deserve. This presidency is not America first. \nThis presidency is about Trump and his friends changing all the laws for their own benefit lining their pockets.
