Imagine having a leader that speaks multiple languages. Its almost as if there are those in your vast constituency that may relate to you more.

Smart man!!! He speaks nicely, clearly... and he speaks TWO languages good for you!!! Smart then his neighbor ???

It is so dumb to put a tariff on Canada..we're just brother and sister..Canadians bring a lot of business to our town and we speak the same language aka English..Why? We have to do this ?

funny how they just cut off when he speaks another language. Sad.

And they speak more than two languages this is so so sad?

Dumb trump can’t speak 2 languages haha

Even when leaders of other countries speak “harshly” which I think is really just speaking directly, but the leaders I’ve heard in their harsh’s tones, never speak the despicable language that Trump uses with his derogatory, name-calling and vicious, lashing out that he does he never pauses, take a deep breath and can consider the 2% of truth his adversaries are speaking of he simply can’t negotiate or compromise or even listen for God sake. He’s only a few years older than me. We have learned by this age to shut our mouths and listen sometimes, but not him. No, he has not learned that lesson. He has not learned to listen to others and to care for others.

Trudeau: now let me speak to Donald. *starts using basic and childlike language*\n\nNow let me speak to Canadians. *uses idioms and complex language*\n\nI can’t ???

Dump trump can’t speak 2 languages

Why you speak over the PM talking french? You do not understand french? Sorry... i forgot you are amerrrricccans... which language you speak? Europe pisses you. You dumbs

I love how the Americans cut and fade when Justin begins to speak in another language! Quick fade out he could be slagging us off in French! Switch it off!!!!!!!!!

Just the fact that the guy speaks two languages fluently throws the orange guy to the floor and mop it with him. The United States president is such a despicable human being! No wonder his government is full of absolute trash.

......he is someone I would Love Leading my Country, especially right now. Then to further make Trump look like a dumbass, he did his speech in a different language...fluidly. Trump can barely speak English.

A real president speaking 2 languages.

How many languages does Trump speak ?

Be serious America, what would you give to have a president like this? talking logic, honesty and truth, without making everything about himself and blaming others. He can speak 2 languages at least and speak in coherent sentences, y'all must be so jealous to have an R-word biggot at the helm instead.\nLet's build that LNG terminal for Europe ASAP and join the EU \n??

FIRST OF ALLLLLL, the switching of languages is a major FLEX!!!!!! \nOur pResident can barely speak one. ?

Every Magahadists heads exploded with they hear that our Prime Minister speaks (fluently) at least two languages.

Canadian prime minister speaks 2 languages Mexican president speaks 2 languages Ucrania president speaks 3 languages Donnie only one keep the good work mexico ?? Canada ?? and Ucrania ?? so much knowledge and preparation on this 3 great leaders , Donnie needs urgent ? help .

Lookie Americans, a prime minister who can speak in coherent sentences and as a bonus in 2 languages

Justin can speak 2 languages fluently, your phatt purv clown can't READ!

What happened to United States government being by the people, for the people? PM Trudeau's speech is in plain real language, unlike the dumbed-down unintelligible words coming from our administration here in The US. Thank you, PM Trudeau for speaking so reasonably and maturely about this unpleasant trade development??

Trump speaks two languages. Dumb and Dumber!\nThank you Canada! Many of us stand with you. Hoping we can remove Trump soon and get back to fair trading with our great neighbors!

“Alright, now that he’s speaking French and none of us speak a second language, let’s start talking on top of him.” Wtf.

Starting a trade war with our trusted allies is an extremely stupid idea... But does Trump and his associates ever have a good idea?? I am glad Canada is standing up for what is correct!! Hearing Trudeau speak in the language of FACTS, LOGIC, and REASON is SO REFRESHING!!!! Go Trudeau!!!

Under normal circumstances I would be the last person to support our Liberal party; especially Trudeau. His past record speaks for itself. However, his talk today to the American people and Trump actually made me feel proud to be a Canadian. It was the harshest language I have heard him use towards Trump especially after enduring weeks of degrading talk from Trump in relation to calling Trudeau a governor. I hope that the Liberals follow through with protecting Canadians.

Trudeau speaks clear .. struggle to understand the thuggery language of Trump

Wow, this is an American President who can talk coherently. I suggest that Canada invites all US-American States who still have a sane sense to join the United States of Canada. I bet, the world would be in a better state if we had leaders like President Trudeau. Chose between a babbling and overtaxed old man and an intelligent man who makes sense!\n(Should I have made any spellings mistakes, it's probably because English is not my native language, so please hold back on your hatred you trolls out there. At least I speak other languages ;)

Lol he's speaking in Trump language “Big Things “ ????

Speak slower please the pace is too blistering and incomprehensible for us dumb American's. We just made english our official language so please exercise patience and slow it down to no more than three words per minute.

you know whats really sad. that president can speak 2 languages, our president cant even speak 1 XD

How many foreign languages does the orange guy speak? Just wonderin’

Holy moly, is this what it sounds like when a world leader can speak two languages with clarity instead of rambling unintelligibly like Trump?

That’s the only Language Trump speaks

This is how a leader should speak. He speaks with sincerity and with clarity. He doesnt speak broadly just to an entire audience. He speaks to each group of people that this is concerning to, and making sure we understand the magnitude of this situation. He adjusts how he speak to each group, and also to our sad president. Thats the vibe of the message he was giving me. Many different types of languages and emotions are spoken at the same time.\n\nI love our country, but I do not agree with how our currents presidents policies, changes, and tear down of our government/agencies in just 2 months. I cant imagine the months to come. People are already struggling, and are divided so much more that Americans are not siding with each other, but siding with Canada and Mexico who have been so patient and understanding with us. We need to stand up against our president to stop this isolation and division. We are already divided in our country. I can't stand to see we are starting to be divided globally. This will litterally shrink our economy and our opportunities. Not only that, it puts our national security in peril. We need to do better to work together in harmony.

Trudeau speak his 2nd language, English, better than some Americans.

Wow - when directly speaking to Trump, he definitely changed his language in a way Trump can understand words such as “big” and “large”

America, how does it feels having a leader who can speak in above a fifth-grade level vocabulary? In his second language no less.

I love the simple language he uses when speaking to trump directly in contrast to speaking to anybody else ?❤

Well said Mr. Trudeau. I come from Germany and would like to support Canada. An appeal to the German government: import more Canadian products.\n\nOh, and by the way: how many languages ​​does Mr. Trump actually speak?

I love how he simplifies his language when speaking to Donald Trump

Isn’t it painfully obvious how all other countries have leaders that are poised and articulate EXCEPT ours!? Incredibly embarrassing we have a jackass. Musk is no better. Don’t kid yourself ……English IS his native language yet he speaks like a buffoon as well!

Trudeau is fit\nTrump is obese \nTrudeau is good looking\nTrump is hideous \nTrudeau is articulate\nTrump is illiterate \nTrudeau speaks two languages\nTrump can’t speak even one

Mr Trudeau is an eloquent adult who is fluent in two languages; DumbF is a capricious toddler who can barely speak English. How embarassing.

Attacking Canada is so dumb Canadians and Americans are the same people they even speak the same language in the same accent.

Imagine a Country's leader speaking articulately and coherently with actual facts and reason - and in TWO languages.

Canada shouldn't even give them jobs The jobs should be only for Canadians We did not choose to be born here, they decided to come here so they should figure out what to do and how to live Besides they should support themselves before entering Canada. And the reason why it's hard for a Canadian to find a job is because the managers are Indians and only higher Indians And speak their own language in front of customers It sounds like they're saying party party party.

The vote dosent need immagrants who dont speak the language or relieze the complexed nation

Why are they crying? How about being deported from your own country by people that never lived there. Deported to place they never seen, didn't know the language but too sure of their customs, made to work wage free, and be told you're not wanted there. And they complain today about going to a country they know too much about, speaks the language, can choose to work or not, a ride there without chains. And they cry about going back. Sorry but not sorry.

We have way too many here it's creating resentment. It'd be like living in India but literally every place you went all u see is white ppl speaking English and not respecting Indians culture. After years of seeing your quality of life and services decline you'd get upset too. If u had kids that can't even find a summer job because they're all taken by foreigners or can't find an apartment to live in then that's where problems start. Imagine getting hurt but your wait to see a doctor is 12 hours because 100 east Indians are there at the ER slowing things down because they can't even speak our language. Poor Canadians are now fighting with Indians at food banks it's gotten so bad. We just have too many, if you're reading this in Indian please dont come to Canada
