Thanks for understanding that ever so many Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine and are horrified by Trump and his Republican puppets

Germany and Europe stand behind our Canadian brothers and sisters! We will support you and, in case of doubt, help to defend you. Thank you for your great nation, you are a ray of hope in a very dark world led by egoists and enemies of democracy. May our great democratic nations stand together forever and let every anti-democratic wind smash against our walls. Oh Canada!\nOur home and native land!\nTrue patriot love in all of us command.

Wow! So many awesome comments of support, from around the world! This Canadian thanks you. \nMany of us are proud of our outgoing PM. He made some financial mistakes, maybe a bit TOO liberal, but there are also many detractors who I fear are caught up with the same hyperbole that captivated (and fooled) too many Americans; I hope this is a good lesson for them. \nWe will continue to stand on guard, for ourselves, and for what the world wants us to be❤

American student at a Canadian university: Thank you Canada, for speaking out. Many of us know this is wrong, and we do not blame you for the chaotic fall of the U.S. empire. I stand with Canada (and Mexico for that matter).

I L❤ve Canada ?? and Canadians are reasonable intelligent people across the board. Thank you Canada ?? for standing up to Fascism all over the world ?

As a American I love you Justin Trudeau thank you for standing up to our garbage leader which I hate so much.

Trudeau and other leader angry because someone is finally standing up for the US!!! These so called allies have used and abused the US for too long! It's over thanks to Trump!?????????

Thank you for standing up to Trump. He's an idiot. Wish you were our president. Trump is a Russian asset.

Wow, a truly impressive speech! Thank you so much for standing up against the bullying Trump-administration. These dangerous clowns are about trying to dismantle democracy and freedom all over the western world.\nMe and my family were planning to visit USA for vacation this summer. After the shameful White House -meeting last Friday these plans were immediately abandoned. We now decided that we are going to Canada instead. \nGreetings from Switzerland

Go Trudeau, thank you for standing up to the racist morons in the white house.\n❤from Holland\n\nP.S.; I get the feeling Ukraine will be worse off signing the contract and apologizing

Connecticut here. Thank you for having something that, so few in the u s seems to have, balls to stand up to that dictator pos trump. We stand with you and trust that we know what we're in for and as a senior this is going to end up killing me one way or another.

Thank you, PM Trudeau. Stand your ground against the bully.

Trudeau is so handsome and smart and good. I wish he was our leader here in the US. Can you come here and help us, please? We need help. I understand why you have to fight back against Trump. I can't stand Trump and what he and our government is doing but I don't know how to stop it. I sure didn't vote for him. Thank you Mr. Trudeau for all of your great work and commitment and governance. I stand with Canada.

From America ?? I say THANK YOU Canada ?? !!! You’re Standing Tall to the lies!! The Dictators! Canada HAS and Always will be our Brothers & Sisters, Friends !! ❤ Bravo to the BRAVEST!!!

I am a US citizen and will never call felon47 my president. He cares nothing about our country or citizens not to speak of how he has lied about and treated our Canadian friends. Thank you for doing what our own legislature will not do, stand up to this tyrant. God Bless Canada, and may God save our country!
