Oh no! Canadians be ware, your government is here to help. Watch out! This is the time you need to be scared. When you here the phase we the government is here to help, you run!

Wow great speech, especially first minute. He isn't scared of our new traitor president. Kudos to Canada for standing up to our lousy bully. Sadly, its just one lousy businessman doing this to everyone. Nice work MAGA. What you gotta say now?

As an American, it's refreshing to hear someone speak intelligently from a leadership position. Well done Sir, stand your ground. I'm embarrassed to be an American and scared at what the next 3.75 years is going to bring to our country.

Never thought I would actually be jealous of another country's president. I am absolutely embarrassed and scared shitless. Trump is collapsing us and selling us out. My spirit feels the end.

IF YOU THINK THAT SCARES US THEN THINK AGAIN AMERICANS ARE TOUGH WE WILL MAKE IT WITHOUT CANADA, YOU NEED US MORE THAN WE NEED YOU

OH HOG WASH AND CANADA HAS BEEN TAKING ADVANTAGE OF AMERICA FOR MANY YEARS NOW, WE ARE NOT SCARED

ooooooo Im a canadian scared of puiti

Justin Trudeau calling Trump his first name. CNN reporter: “Harsh name”.. lol.. CNN also scared of Trump.

I honestly think Trump doesn’t know how tariffs work. His acolytes are too scared to tell him he’s got it wrong saying the exporting countries pay the tariffs, he said it time & again in the campaign & his dumb as a rock MAGA supporters actually beleived him. The media were absolutely derelict in not pushing back on his claims they just kept covering him saying it, & here we are.

He’s scared

? Canada is a joke, you couldn’t even scare a toddler, hurt us ?…SMH ?‍♂️\nWe been in Biden recession for 4yrs, so yeah we will good ???…

As an American, I am scared and ashamed at the same time. This is a nightmare. Trump is insane.

he is so scared :D

Bring it on ya pansies!! We ain’t scared if no canadiens. You can’t fight your way out of wet paper bag!! You ain’t hurting nothing! Can’t wait till yall become the 51st state ?

I'm so sick of trump and he just starting why don't the Republicans do something with their scared asses he's a bully and there scared of his orange ass

Someone sounds scared. Everything will be better for Canada once Tardo is gone. Hang in there nucks.

This just shows you how desperate and scared Canada is. We don’t need anything from Canada. This just clearly shows that without America Canada is nothing.

Good to see someone standing up to Trump when so many politicians are scared of confronting him. I really hope Canada isn't too badly affected by the weird economic strategies of Trump. I hope the people of the USA aren't too badly affected either.

They don't care they hate us they want to kill us we're all in trouble we're scared to death they're shutting down everything or Medicaid or Medicare our food stamps everything they're going to take the middle class out within a matter of months and don't trust him a bit.

Are you scared of America

Swedish immigrant living in Usa and I am so scared of this new Administration Trump is not with the American people he is with Putin. Usa need help removing Trump and Vance and the Maga Loyalist

ohh nooo????????? didnt this foo resign and his own country hate him? shut up mate, you aint scaring no one. this is what the country voted for, look at the popular vote

We (the American people) don't care what you have to say Trudeau or how you feel about anything our president does, Get bent , Aye. You don't scare us?

Nice scare tactic. Pay up bud.

We have an enemy within named trump! But that does not excuse those that put him in office not one time but twice! What a disgrace. I’m scared for us!!!

Trump is walking all of America into the lions den with no armor. He's the world's biggest useful idiot. But it's once he becomes the world's biggest useless idiot that scares me the most.

I am so overwhelmed by the fact that I am powerless against my own governments idiotic actions that completely destabilize the world. Please understand that over half of Americans are just as shocked as Canadians, and we love you as our neighbors. We let a ruthless dictator brainwash our vulnerable and uneducated and exploit every crack in our system to get here. I’m very scared for what’s to come and it sucks so badly that we all have to pay for an egrogious act of an elderly nepo baby that doesn’t understand how government and the world works.

Hope he doesn't back down or get scared of trump

You can tell he's scared s*** you can hear it in his voice and you can hear he's trying to intimidate us

As someone from the Netherlands, I wish our former prime minister and current NATO leader Rutte responded in a similar way to Trudeau. He was always a true politicians' politician, but the way he stood with the US right after the horrible treatment of Zelensky was a new low. If the majority of US allies responded in a firm manner the way Trudeau just did, it might be enough to scare some Republicans into doing the right thing.

Please, please adopt Minnesota. We love Canada. Thank you for speaking directly to the US people. We are suffering and scared!

Trudeau is scared that’s why he has made this speech. Canada has been manipulated by the European Union and if all of you people from Canada and USA could see the state of the uk and Europe in real life you would listen to trump.

Who are our Dem politicians who will organize the ppl to respond??? Are they scared? This is crazy that all this is happening while the Dem response has been lukewarm. The ppl will show up. We need dates, places and times.

Thankfully on leader in North AMERICA has the balls to stand up to trump,putim and vance .As well as the rest of the world or just give in looking scared and weak .

The man is scared. Well done USA.

Why don’t you address the Chinese interference in your last two elections or you scared of what the Chinese nationals in Toronto and Vancouver will do?

Mr Trudeau, trump talking about Fentanol is a lie, simply take a look, if that drug is so dangerous, why in China ?? there is nothing noticed about that Fentanol, no drugs records, no drugged chinese people on streets, like in usa drugged nation .. \nusa is deadly scared of Chinese ?? development .. so please take proper side of that usa BS ..

Fentanyl are being here in America he only use that has a threat to scared i

I am an American. I am horrified by the orange alien's behavior. I am scared. My family is scared. Do what you have to. Canada is an upstanding country, as are her people.

its funny to see regular faces behind a president speach, with trump people look scared for their lives usually

Canadian Prime Minister is a Real mature man that speaks eloquently and is intelligent and is correct and fair !!\n Beautiful speech , thank you Prime Minister, we as Middle class Americans are fighting for our survival and are scared that Trump is listening to billionaires instead of the People!!❤️???

Thank you Canada......how refreshing to hear Truth and Clear speaking to help us understand. We are scared here in the US - it seems impossible that this is happening.

He sounds scared to me. Pay ur fair share

I absolutely appreciate your speech. I didn't vote for any of this. I'm scared.

CNN, why in the world do you waste our time telling us what we just saw and heard? Anyway, I'm very nervous, if not down right scared, to watch the United States devolve into a fascist regime. It feels terrorists now hold our government hostage. For the first time in my life, I'm embarrassed and ashamed to be an American.

I feel sick, sad, angry, and scared with everything going on right now. As a veteran, my heart is absolutely broken.\n\nWe're stuck between a rock and a hard place right now. The MAGA refuse to see or believe what's going on. They've been 100% brainwashed. The people in our government who can do something are standing back and laughing us off. It's very surreal. And very few of us have been able to save up enough to move. And moving to another country is incredibly expensive and difficult.\n\nI did not vote for Trump. Many didn't. Those who did are too proud to admit that what's going on is wrong. So long as it punishes people who think differently than them, they're glad to cut off their own arms to do so.

From The Netherlands: Bravo to you Trudeau! And to you Canadians. We’re on your side. ?????✌️… I can’t believe what is going on with the USA and how that monsters Trump can do such a thing, and why?!? And how does democracy works in the US; did he get a majority of votes for starting this war?!? It’s disgusting (and the start of WW3? I’m scared as hell).
