Atta boy Trudeau, whoop our ass.. as an American, set our government straight..

Trudeau’s speech, spot on. This CNN “analysis” says so much about why it’s lost its value. Quoting the Washington Post’s use of the word “dumb” does not make a speech harsh. Good lord. 47 reckless governance is harsh, cruel and intentionally damaging, not to mention the way he speaks daily. Get it right.

4:15 thousands of vehicles ate being carnap in canada every year and ended in Africa and Trudeau and his government is doing nothing

I’m an American citizen, and I totally agree with Trudeau. Our government is indeed bad, and our economy keeps getting worse.

As someone who is from the US, I feel completely abandoned by my country. We feel ignored, betrayed, and attacked by our own government. I wish we had a leader like you Mr. Trudeau.

i live in Canada and i do not agree with what Justin Trudeau is doing. We SHOULD back down from fighting! This is a war we cannot win.❤ Most people in Canada want Justin out of office. The government here is out of touch with reality, and out of control too.❤ i think Donald is doing a pretty good job. He is putting tariffs on imports because he wants people to buy items that are made in the United States of America. i think that is a good thing for Donald to do for the country of United States: putting America first.❤ The way i see it is that Canada is going to war with both Russia and the United States of America! Crazy.

Let's be perfectly clear, here: The United States, leaving her markets WIDE OPEN -- as if a woman flinging her legs open and apologizing if she can't 'service' everyone in the crowd -- for EIGHTY YEARS and our workers, engineers, factory builders, etc., etc., all just watching our jobs float off to other shores...is OVER.\n> As is to be expected, Trudeau is keeping up appearances. \n> About THREE-FOURTHS of Canada's exports are converted to CASH inside the United States. \n> That means JOBS for Canadians, paychecks for Christmas time and tax revenues for Ottawa.\n> Yes, the US really does need Canada. We need Mexico. (We don't need Communists like China.)\n> But we have SACRIFICED our most vital naturally-occurring need: our personal and industrial productivity and creativity. \n> The United States, thanks to Her ideas on governance and empowerment of the People, invented and created the modern world that, now, almost 8 billion people expect (maybe closer to 6 billion of the 8+). \n> We have suffered unspeakably for the past -- at least -- 50 years as more and more of our ingenuity and creativity that once fueled our production has disappeared in the name of keeping the world free.\n> Enough. \n> The world WILL change. We can either accept China's version of Soviet Communism, relinquishing all global empowerment for whatever the CCP feels like, today.\n> Or we can bite the bullet and allow the People of the United States to restore what we sacrificed for the stability of a free world, starting about 80 years ago.\n> Either way, Canada will not go back to the way things were.\n> They can be better. But not like before. Period.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau. As a U.S. citizen, I am embarrassed and sickened by what the government of the U.S. is doing to my country. It's despicable.

8:06 AST yes, Mr Trudeau, we don’t like this either. Thank you for speaking on behalf of the American people. You speak the truth. We are under seize by an authoritarian government. God bless you and Canada.

Trudeau crushed free speech and lowered the standard of living in Canada below every US state. Even Mississippi. Government supported suicide did increase though.

These comments on youtube are funny. Trudeau is the reason why Canada is economically a shell of what it was 10 years ago. Everyday canadians understand his words and threats are empty. Hes a shell puppet who is so hated in canada that he had to shut down the canadian government 2 months ago. Thats right, in a demcracy this creepy fool has shut it down to milk a few more measly months of his power before he is forced to slink away. Worse, under his watch our borders have become fentanyl ridden jokes. Less than 10 percent of anything is even inspected at our ports of entry. Human and drug trafficing is out of control. I dont like tarriff wars, but this is all trudeaus fault - every criticism of the US gov is completely valid. Canada went from #3 at the G20 to last under this guy. 90 percent of the fentanyl going into the US comes through canada.. should i go on...

From the USA good job PM Trudeau . Our current government is shameful at best.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, the sane Americans still love you and your great country. This government is not who or what I voted for. I am so sorry, friends. I think MOST of us do not want this either. Our government is a failure and we need to change it. We, the people. The REAL people. Not the fake numbers you hear about from this corrupt administration that lies like it's their religion to do so. Keep doing the right thing for your people, and know you have our respect. Also, please have mercy when many of us seek to move to a more civilized nation.

Justin, you are a charismic guy, and your hands are bigger than Trump's. What comes into our country across the northern border is the responsibilty of the American government, not the Canadian's. TRUMP, this should be your prioruty, not PM Trudeau's. His cute socks are far more appealling than your orange spray tan.

Well said Mr Trudeau. How can the Government of the USA stand by and allow this happen to their closest ally. I’m delighted to hear a clear and articulate statement from a country leader, that isn’t spiteful and argumentative and bullying. The rest of the World will stand with Canada.

You’re 100% correct Mr Trudeau except that we DID chose to do this when the other 50% elected this government. ?

Trudeau is Big Mad. Trudeau is a Puppet Prime Minister, like Biden was, and stepping and fetching for the foreign interest who actually control Canada. Basically, Canada's Government has made policies and taken steps that imposed US Tariffs on Canada. You will need to thank Justin Trudeau, an authoritarian leader who is currently Dictator of Canada.

Nobody cares what Trudeau has to say. Didn’t he step down? Isn’t he walking out of office this month? Who knows what his successor will do. But Americans aren’t going to rally behind the French Canadian government against our own. Laughable.

CNN is so full of shit they can’t even talk the facts of Donald Trump getting himself in this shit. Pink suit mama Paula is stuttering all over herself. The first thing she says is how Trudeau spoke of how it’s going to be hard on Canada and then stuttered about it being hard for Americans. But she FAILED to mention that Canada has vowed to be there and make amends for its citizens unlike America whose government has hung its citizens out to dry. CNN also failed to mention ton that Trump signed the current trade agreement when he was president for his first term. Never thought I would see the day CNN would skirt the issue trying their damndest not to use the words the rest of the world is saying and that’s “What the fuck Donald?” Shame on you CNN. You’re the reason the right information isn’t being put out there.

First time in my whole life that I'm proud of Trudeau... Again I've always hated is way of governing...This is the speech of a real leader...\n\nPlease realize that Poilievre is a JDVance with the view of the orange orangutan... Be careful cause they have the SAME agenda! (Abortion and women's rights, etc...)

So sad that our government knows how to SCREW UP A FRIENDSHIP. Hear, hear Mr. Trudeau you have my total respect.

OK woke Trudeau, who is about to get replaced - remove tariffs targeting US businesses for the last 3 decades, like the 200%+ tariff on dairy products from USA, then we can talk\n\n...and YES we will deal with Russia because they are the only country who didn't take a red cent of aid from USA - their fertilizer is far cheaper than Canada's fertilizer.\n\nI'm speaking to Canadians - especially the truckers whose bank accounts Trudeau froze - vote out the woke Canadian government!\n\nAs far as CNN goes, you are traitors - you would betray USA because the dummy you wanted to win failed against Trump.\n\nThe stock market going down has far more to do with short supply of chips - that is why tech companies were hit heaviest. Last time I checked, Canada doesn't make chips.

I am so embarrassed and sickened by my government. I live in WA state and have always loved and respected Canada. Mr. Trudeau you are a far superior leader and human than anyone in our government today. God bless you and Canada, and I pray for my country everyday.

Trudeau himself and his liberal government has destroyed the country for their own personal gain.

President Trump’s tariffs on Canada are essential to protecting American jobs and industries from unfair trade practices. Trudeau’s corrupt leadership has exploited the U.S. for years while failing to curb the fentanyl crisis that devastates American communities. His government’s scandals and suppression of dissent prove Canada is no longer a reliable partner. These tariffs aren’t about punishment—they’re about securing America’s future, restoring fair trade, and putting American workers first.

You know listening to Trudeau speak this is how a true leader should act and think how much more of the abuse of government are we going to take as Americans?

BRAVO, Prime Minister Trudeau! I am AMERICAN & I concur with everything you eloquently detailed! Our government is risking alienation from our multi-generational friends and I am against our president playing this whack-a-mole game with our valued Allies! ??‍♀️

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

Why do I feel like Trudeau cares more about my well-being than my own government? Not all of us Americans support Trump. Frankly, I'm terrified of what he's doing. I support your push back, Canada. It only makes sense. I'm glad there are countries out there with safe and logical leaders. Hopefully someday the U.S. can have that again.

Do what you got to do, Mister Trudeau, sir! We know that our orange President and his masters, Puitin and Musk, are Dictators and Tyrants. Our American Government is now corrupt. We, the people, stand with Canada! Do what ya gotta do, sir.

Thank you Minister Trudeau for speaking clearly with facts all the great work that Canada is doing and has done it for the well-being of all.Most importantly how peacefully Canada's government has worked with the US as an ally and on a smart way.Unfortunately Trump is destroying that peaceful relationship with Canada applying those ridiculous and absurd tariffs just for money because Trump is so greedy.This is a shame that affects both Canadians and Americans.I feel bad for our children growing up in this tense situation.

Trudeau its time Canada starts innovating, extracting the loads of natural resources we have, trim down the government and corrupt waste, and use carbon tax money to Produce our own Green energy. Electric cars, buses, rail, solar. Were is the billions of tax and carbon tax going. Our infostructure is piss poor, high utility bills, food, cost of living and housing is unaffordable

Hey Gov. Trudeau of Canada USA you should respect our President Trump and the Federal government.

We don’t want this either, PM Trudeau. And this isn’t our government. It hasn’t been our government for a few decades now. Please do everything you need to in order to fight back. We will be ok. We will fight back against this criminal administration in every way that we can. God Bless Canada and its wonderful people.

Suddenly he want to fight drugs while for past years you legalize every possible drug i Canada. You should be ashamed of yourself Trudeau. When Trump wanted to put tarrifs on Canada you were gone to Portugal apart of making a deal with the guy. Now you cry like a little guy and blaming Trunp for everything while you wasnt even here to negotiate and you shut down Canadian government for your own partisan purpose and government does not exist right now in Canada just because you afraid of loosing election so you just trying to survive as a PM for as long as possible. Not trump but YOU destroyed Canada and its economy and making Canadians life harder and harder and spending our tax money all over the world

I agree with Trudeau. Everything the U.S. has done it has done to itself and the U.S. government is to blame for putting its own citizens at risk and jeopardizing the security of Americans by marginalizing domestic civilians to the role of consumer to the point that families get torn apart and homes get wrecked. Mark my words this U.S. government is a home-wrecker, not your faithful government servant that worked in the best interest of Americans alike from the Atlantic to the pacific coast.

MR. TRUDEAU, QST, THIS GOVERNMENT IS NOT! AMERICA'S! IT'S TRUMP'S, VANCE'S & MUSK 'S! & 2ND, THAT PUTIN SCUM SUCKING BASTARD IN THE WHITE HOUSE IS NOT! AMERICAN!! HE'S A SCUM SUCKING TREASONOUS TRAITOR TO THE LOWEST PVT. & SEAMEN IN OUR MILITARY & A BACK STABBING S.O B. TO NOT ONLY AMERICAN TAX PAYERS; BUT TO EVERY LONG TERM ALLIE WHO SHARED MUTUAL RESPECT, HONOR & TREASURED SECURITY TO ALL OUR PEOPLES OVER THE DECADES!

The majority of Canadians no longer trust Trudeau or his liberal cronies. He has prorouged our government to tie our hands behind our backs. Do you people understand what that means? It means Canadians no longer have a voice or a vote. Of course CNN fake news is promoting this bs and the lies because he pays them. We're not free to choose our own government, news sources or speak freely anymore. We want him gone and Pierre Pollieve to replace him.

It’s comical for Canadian government to think it has any power to make threats of an economic crisis in the United States.You’re economical stability and military protection revolves around trade from the United States.The deficit needs to be equal or your the grifters not the American tax payers footing the bills to keep your country from collapse.America will be just fine without crooks like Trudeau.

Funny how Trump starts wars and removes any assistance Americans need from federal government… and here’s Trudeau, defending his country and beefing up federal aid to citizens who will need it. Trump is a Kkkuck. 100% for Canada

Trudeau is correct. I am ashamed of our current usa government and its treatment of its closest allies. We are no longer the leader of the free world. \nUnder trump the usa seems to be siding with putin and disrespecting, victimizing and bullying our closest and best allies. He refers to trudeau as governor, inferring he will be governor if canada were to join the usa. Such childishness and immaturity from the leader of our country. Our allies will realign with other countries. The usa has lost the free worlds trust. It will take the usa 20 plus years to regain respect.\nTrudeau is extremely well spoken, calm and states facts. How different from president trump.

I'm so grateful to Trudeau for separating the Americans from the American government, we don't want this either

Well done CANADA. You have spoken clearly, letting the American people know, that it is the TRUMP GOVERNMENT that is causing the TRADE WAR. Trudeau spoke like a FREIND & ALLI who will not accept anything to do with a TRUMP/PUTIN deal. This is how to deal with a BULLY & A PERSON WHO IS UNTRUSTWORTHY like PRESIDENT TRUMP.

I wish we had somebody like Prime Minister Trudeau in the US Government instead of what we've had (OK, a couple weren't so bad).

He read the US governmènt for filth. He is so right. WTH with tariffs with Canada. It doesn't make sebse. Our government is acting arrogantly and condescendingly by continuing to call Trudeau 'governor' and refer to them as the 51st state.

Finally Trudeau is talking sense after 9 years of rubbish from him and his Liberal government, I guess he really doesn't care because he's fianally quitting and we are getting a new leader!?!?

Well spoken Trudeau. Good you and Canadian to support your government and stand up to Trump Administration (Bully).

Trudeau, thank you so much for saying, “your government is doing this TO YOU”

Justin Trudeau is a fool who is playing a game that he cannot possibly win and will exponentially damage Canadian citizens while he blames the US government for his response which is exactly the same as the person he’s blaming

So many Trudeau Liberal supporters here. \n\nSo now people suddenly forget the damage he's done to Canada the last 10 years and think he's a good leader again? What a shame. This country cannot afford 4 more years of the toxic Liberal government. Wake up people! They will finish destroying the country if they win again.
