Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau for telling it like it is.

Good speech. Tell the blighters. They abused us all in WW1, They abused us all in WW2, they abused us in Suez, now it seems they are cosying up tp their old Russian bed-fellows, to finish us and the Europeans off. This time together, ladies and gentleman. It should be us against the greedy US madmen politicians.

Justin has stepped up his game. Good for him. Tell it straight.

We don't need you to tell us how we are going to feel. Go fix your own broken country.

When a corrupt man is telling you you're too corrupt to deal with, common sense would dictate that might sink in. But America hasn't run on common sense for about a decade now.

Everyone who's backing this dude and who are against putin let me tell you all you're off your heads. Putin is one of the good guys who's helping to expose the epicentre of evil which is a place in Ukraine called Chyna

? all you had to do is stop the flow of fentanyl and ilegal immigrants and you couldn’t do that. Who It’s going to hurt more Canada or USA Time will tell.

Justin Trudeau I believe what your saying and I totally disagree in Trumps tariff wars. I am sorry we are here. When Trump asks again about become a state of America tell him to go screw himself.

Imagine being an NPC and siding with Canada because CNN tells you to. I bet most of these comments are from bots.

Dual citizen in Canada I could not be more ashamed at the US tantrum showing man Vs The real adult Trudeau in the room. \nWe thank you for your address today and telling Donny we are not standing on the playground and taking the mean actions anymore.

Why are some commentators still talking about fentanyl & immigration as if it has anything to do with whats going on. a psychotic, narcissistic loon who hasn't the faintest clue about government, whose ambition is self enrichment and whose instincts are sel aggrandizement has been elected to the leadership of a country where his unique combination of idiocy, incompetence, insanity, deranged maliciousness and need to exact vengeance on those he feels failed to defer to him sufficiently (or just randomly, to assert himself) can do the most damage. Sure Trump is a fascist, but he's much, much worse: He is totally insane. What do the congressional Republicans tell their children, families and friends about why they're bowing to a clear and dangerous psychooath utterly devoid of human decency ? How do they explain their snivelling deference to a once in a millennia loonatic of these proportions. He's not only, obviously and blatantly imposing hardship on the most vulnerable Americans for personal gain, he is destroying US influence and respect globally. The rest of the world now see the US as a real and present danger. A pscho killer nation from whose derangement no one is safe. How long will this be tolerated; and how long before it occurs to Trump to drop a nuclear bomb on someone just to boost his ego? We aren't dealing with a rational mind, and RRepublicans need to be told that their 'king' went from a corporate tool to Caligula quicker than a Ferrari.

So proud of our PRIME MINISTER Trudeau. Thank you for calling him donald and telling it like it is! I have NEVER referred to donald as president and NEVER WILL. He is no president. He is not worthy of such a title, never will be. America belongs to the enemy now, allies no more.

AMEN Trudeau tell the truth about our new Government not doing the right thing for us Americans. Thank you for saying the truth.

Why did Jake Tapper cut off Trudeau’s remarks when Trudeau was telling the American people why the US National Anthem was being booed? I have to rethink why I used to think that CNN wasn’t Fox-like.

Don't tell me your admitting to creating a surveillance state along the candadian us border. Dumbass. Help out with the whole Mexican thing if you really want fentanyl off the earth

Is that Blonde lady behind him.. Amber Heard. Tell me im not the only one who thinks this.. lol

And so it begins... what I've tried telling lots of people that Trump will do if made President of the United States. I hope those who voted him in are satisfied with their decision because the beast has been unleashed.

We already know those who follow Trump. Will believe whatever lies he tells them

Trudeau wouldn't lie, so he had to quote WSJ to qualify Trump as 'smart'. So telling and frankly, deserved.

American here… I’m sick and tired of every country telling US American people how we should feel. From behalf of all blue color America!! GO F YOURSELF!!!

The US isn't launching a trade war against anyone. We are closing up shop and are getting ready to take care of our own. There is a massive difference. We cannot be expected to continue supporting other countries economies and defense obligations, when we have 2 generations of working class citizens unable to afford a home or have children. We have entire countries we could fill with the homeless and incarcerated, and veterans who see little to no positive treatment or respect within the job market. Things are already very very bad here in the states. I don't think many Americans realize how bad the economy is. Tariffs will force US companies to reduce the outsourcing of jobs, and force other countries who are over-reliant on trade from the States, to cultivate their own self-sufficiency. This may seem hypocritical when it comes to China, but that isn't a problem you can solve overnight. \n\nTo make it clear, Americans are going to suffer in the wake of this tariff decision, but that is the price we pay to force ourselves to change. We have made ourselves into a very weak country because of overreliance on other countries trade, and other countries overreliance on our intelligence, infrastructure, medical advancements, technological advancements, and defense capabilities. The american consumer and taxpayer front the bills for all of this, and they are suffering. This isn't a war on the rest of the world. It us telling everyone else that we can no longer be relied upon because we are weak. \n\nI didnt' even vote Trump the first two times he ran. But things have now gotten so bad that I was forced into voting for him this time. Why? Because he's a bull in a china shop. I expect him to tear every damn thing apart he can within our government. I want everything destroyed so it can be rebuilt by people who aren't complacent.

Hi from Russia. Just want to tell it's really pleasant just to hear him talk. Unlike Trump.

Waiting for him to tell the American ppl how their going to make up the 180 billion trade deficit. all the Americans in here dumping on America just remember your the one being taking advantage of

The lies coming from trudeau are unbelievable. What trudeau fails to tell you is that he legalized fentinal in British Columbia, and the reason seizures are low is because of his actions.

Wrong Mr. Trudeau:\n\nThe AMERICAN VOTERS listened to Trump and chose to vote for him. They are the ones you need to tell:\n\nYOU voted for this leader, YOU created this trade war. \n\nVOTE BETTER next time!

Don't threaten us or tell us what we're going to feel! Go and sit in timeout and we'll TELL YOU! when you can come out

develop your communication skills , because once you open your mouth you tell the world who you are. Fucking Trump take note.

Me again. I too have something to say to the Americans who are struggling. Let me ask you all something. What does a country really need to keep it going? The answer is people. With no people working to keep a country going. Then you can't really call your country a country. Let me sadly tell you this ladies and gentlemen. The America you loved and worked hard to sustain, is gone, gone and replaced by your president and his followers. America is now Trump's America. He has change everything that made your America free, peaceful and safe. And when or not you get it back. All of you need to make a decision. If you feel like your safety, life and wellness of your family is in real danger. Then if you can get out of America. Go to a country that you believe will help you and keep you and your family safe and well. Always put your families safety and health first. But if you Don't have the money or a car go leave? Then let me say. Keep fighting and don't stop fighting until this low life criminal and traitor is removed from power. I am praying for all of you who are struggling. Don't give in and don't give up.❤

I feel like Canada is more upset about this than the US. Tells you everything you need to know. They are dependent on the US. Digging their own grave

Is this making America great again!!! Tell me what you think but I know my thoughts!!!

I am a US citizen and I'm proud of you Canada ??. I didn't vote for the idiot in the WH and neither did none of my friends and family. This move by the current POTUS is more like orders he got from somewhere else ??. He's to stupid to think of anything himself and he doesn't read anything unless someone tells him.

All those stupids that voted for freaking maga. Now tell me how this will affect trump cuz you would be the affected. Trump is a billionaire and would be richer at the end of his term. You will learn the hard way

Completely insane....whats happened to the US and the other, strong politicians and members of congress that oppose this guy? Im telling you, if it came to physical war, every single able bodied Canadian would take up arms, and you might win, there will be nothing left to be proud of. You are starting WWIII dude!!!

Tell Trump to F Off! Please dont blame all of us Americans!

????..You tell that MAGA Trump KGB traitor where to go!..

Putin is telling him what to do

Just got back from Jamaica. Hopefully Canadians won’t hold it against me for telling people I was Canadian. ??

Tell me how is it that the country that most people associate with being a wimp no offense I love these guys turns out Justin Trudeau has more balls than Trump and his cabinet combined

Who is going to tell trudue AMERICA NEEDS your Uranium deposits.

I am from Quebec and let me tell you I filtered out all american products from my shopping list.

Someone had to tell him straight ‘ Trump u dumb F*ck’ ? \nraising unrealistic tariffs

A communist telling America how to conduct business lol

So good. It’s about time leaders stop tip-toeing around Trump and tell it like it is. Back the fuck off, Donnie.

Can you not see it? Donald Grump wants this. His next move is to ask the military to invade Canada and Mexico. And Grump will tell lies again to the American people why he is doing it. And dumb Americans will believe it. \nHe told Zelensky about WWIII? Grump is the one who’s starting it. And why is that? Simple, Grump and Putin are BFF’s that wants to rule the whole world. \nSane Americans should start a revolution and kick Grump and his cronies out of the office and jail them all in Quantico.

Western countries and Western Media have been telling lies about President Putin. You have no credibility

Canadians are programmable. The media is telling you to divide and conquer just like Covid and you're doing it all over again

Didn't #47 tell the farmers get? ready to get a lot of money? Was he being facetious?

Here is another approach to Trumps tariff. Any country like Canada, China and Mexico etc etc. All these countries can tell Trump shove it. Stop importing goods into the U.S. find other countries that can and replace the U.S. and watch America and Republicans literally collapse. Just a thought Tariff means customer will pay more for sure.

So basically, he is telling the American people that Trump is a bad President and that the US was better off under a walking corpus (Biden).

TRUMP is a smart man. So all I can say is there's a long game that he's not telling anyone. But yet you Dims allowed years of your president not talking in your quiet. WTH
