Very good speech from a true leader ! So sad that Trump is doing this to the best allies of the USA. Obviously, Putin does really have some compromising videos and info on Trump and he is manipulating him. Today, I am ashamed to have become an US citizen. Is this what the American Dream has become ? Isolationism from our best allies and sleeping with the enemy and dictators ?

I’m Canadian and I don’t care for Trudeau. I didn’t vote for him but I have to give credit where credit is due. I appreciate that he is standing up for Canada and I agree with him. This is a huge mistake for the USA and it is destroying decades of hard work that has made North America great.

Trade war tests will. There is no trade war. You’re just realizing you can also tariff. Dude this is awesome. Go Canada. Go USA I wish I knew how to help the world, specifically.

I can’t stand his oration . He comes across condescending. We are nice just be cool USA

Wow! TRUDEAU!! WHY CANT THE USA HAVE A PRESIDENT LIKE YOU!!

This was the best Country USA in the world !! What happened to us!! So sad so scary

USA is becoming USSRA ?

Trump is destroying the USA

Putin is laughing at the USA all the way to the bank ? at how dumb our president is acting ?

India, china, russia n now USA is DUSTBIN TRUDEAU's enemy

Why can’t we have a leader like this in the USA??

i think trumps stil living in the 80s-90s, the world has changed alot since usa had the monopoly

F that POS! Time for the USA to level the playing field in trade. Lets go!

Trudeau control your borders, you have no cards, have nothing compared to the USA... You chose the Tariff Match didn't you now... IF you had 'border' control in place, you wouldn't be able to spend 1 Billion dollars, and you wouldn't be acting just days ago... And yes Since Trump was Elected, border crossings lessened because illegals know they better get with it. Has nothing to do with you Trudeau. ANd you do sugar coat, well lie, about everything. Oh, and Dems don't have your backs. They are busy freaking out right now. lol

His 1st three letters is the same as trump 1st 3 letters i don't believe anything he says i believe this is all set up on purpose to start war on the blacks in the USA

Cry baby Just build your factories here in USA and there is no tariff. We owe you nothing.

?? how much money you got from USA ?? Million’s I heard .

CNN, why don’t you say openly that trump is an uneducated fool who does not know what he doing as president or how this world functions. And equally uneducated fools like Vance and Musk are not knowing how a country work let alone a big country like USA.

You gave free drugs to Canadians you destroyed Canadian families USA's population is way too big to worry about all Canadian products

This was a very stupid move by trump,usa,are on the brink of bankcrupt ez,for 40 trillion

US President Krasnov-Trump appears to have but one mission: dismantle the USA

Canada has to PROTECT THEMSELVES AFTER TRUMP/MUSK disclosed themselves to be TRAITORS OF THE USA, PURSUING PUTIN & OPEC NATIONS to make themselves maga-wealthy & HARM USA, RAISE $ PER BARREL & RETURN TO EVENTUAL OIL RATIONING IN USA -HISTORY TAUGHT US

This is why trump needs to cut a deal with Ukraine and russia so he can adopt there minerals and russian oil which will become in the end the USA biggest contract , why attack his own partners remains a mystery !!! However lets explore closer why he obtains from doing this

Trudeau isn’t in a place to speak for Canada. He resigned. USA could walk into Canada at anytime and there is nothing Trudeaucan do to stop them.

Donald Trump is a Russian asset crashing the US on purpose so American and Russian oligarchs can buy up all of the shares of all of the major companies for pennies on the dollar and turn the USA into a Russian-style Duginist oligarchy and kleptocracy.\n\nThey are doing everything to you that they claimed that the Democrats were trying to do to you. They are playing out the ultimate plan of “you will own nothing and you will be happy” except they don’t care about you being happy, they’re just going to make you poor and that’s the end of it.

Trump and Vance are two morons and should be removed from office it USA is to prosper.

Ill maks it make sense. The usa cannot fight a 2 prong war. Europe needs to focus on Russia while usa focuses on china. It was proven a year ago that if we fought with both. We would run out of ammo in 2 weeks. We are competing with china now. Not Europe not Canada not mexico. China!

i support you Justin thank you from USA

Well. Based ON THEIR WORD Trump paused the tariffs because of promises made ...... Just like Mexico they said they would secure their borders to help stop the flow if illegal immigrants, drugs, gangs and terrorists into the USA... THEY DID NOT. China did nothing to crack down on fentanyl being smuggled out of their country (although I think they would rather see American people die of overdoses. When Trump says he going to do something he does it.. no more Biden woosie politics.

Who owns Europe? Let's take Europe to the USA.

China has imposed a 25% tariff on the USA, which will have consequences due to Trump's aggressive moves. He thinks governing is like running a business, but the world doesn't work that way. Trump is not helping the USA but will make life more complex, and a few years later, Americans will realize.

Canada, I am sorry for the acts of Donald J. Trump, who does not speak for me (and I am confident most of the people of the USA). If I could change Trump's actions directly, I would.\nI believe your government is taking the correct actions in response and I do not find fault in that. You are our friends. I/we will suffer from Trump's actions. I am sorry for us all.\nMay God save the free world.\n❤❤❤

Don't worry, Canada, most of us here in the USA are with you! We do not agree with the orange swine!! All that talk about his popularity vote is bogus! A lie, manufactured! No such truth!

Dear Canadian neighbors. \n I apologize for our crazy Karen’s trump and musk. \n Please be patient. \n I think we will both come through this in the long run. \n You are so lucky to have a President who cares for ALL OF YOU. \n A REAL MAN, not a BULLY. \n This will indeed be tough times for all of us. \n God Bless God Speed\n from USA

Am so sad that USA continues to bully not only Americans but all those countries that we worked with previous years. GOD IS NOT PLEASED WITH HOW AMERICA IS TREATING OUR NEIGHBORS. STAND IN UNITY PRAYING GOD WILL SHOW UP. ??

I can't help but notice the overwhelming support in the comments for the Canadian stance. Tragically many Canadians now consider the USA to be approaching enemy status.

The USA needs a man like this instead of a con man.

You are the winner! You will find another way to get what you need and show you don’t need USA!

I disagree with him. Donald is clearly not a “very” smart guy. Even a person with average IQ would make so many and so big poor decisions. He is a muppet on the hands who realized how easily he can be manipulated. Most unAmerican president in the history of USA. Worse than Nixon. Danger to USA and American people. As long as he is the president. We can no longer say POTUS is “the leader of the free world “ He prefers murderous dictators. Not the free world.

Perhaps it is time for USA citizens to sell their Canadian residential real estate.

Just avoid absolutely everything from the USA. Globally.

Trump has made sure that USA is not credible. We do feel bad for the Americans that did not vote for him but it will only get worse… Trump and Putin are in bed together.

OMG, what is going on with my country, USA? we are ashamed of our government

Other than Russia, does the USA still have any friends?

USA has also implemented a 25% tariff on Australian steel and aluminium, which our industry leaders & politicians are not happy about!

La Russie s'empare de l'Ukraine et d'une partie de l'Europe avec la complicité de Trump, lui il va s'emparer du Canada après l'avoir asphyxié économiquement, du Groenland et bien entendu de l'Amérique du Sud ou déjà son ami nazi Musk a financé la campagne du président d'extrême droite nazi Milei! \nEt pour couronner le tout, Trump abandonne les Taïwanais en espérant que les plus grosses entreprises qui fabriques les microprocesseurs s'installerons aux USA en laissant derrière eux une population aux mains des chinois !\nBienvenu dans le monde merveilleux du fascisme et du nazisme capitaliste made in USA et un grand merci à ses sponsors, Tesla, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, des marques et des réseaux sociaux à boycotter donc, car l'argent est bien le nerf de la guerre !!!\nDe France, Slava Ukraini ?? ??❤

As a Minnesotan, I feel as if I’m almost as Canadian as American and proud to say so. Our present sitting president and buffoon unelected sidekick Musk are creating chaos everywhere for the sake of billionaire donors and supporters. Absolutely none of what Trump/Musk has done and plans to continue to do is beneficial to a single non-wealthy American and these actions will harm his personal voters (of which I’ve never been one!) the most. Trump cares not. Pervasive narcissistic sociopathy is not curable! Stand strong Canada! We’re trying mightily to defeat this insanity here in the USA! 74 million people did not vote for any of this harm and destruction and outright cruelty!

He his own president. We believe you. USA... ??Up when they let that criminal back in office. I hate everything about DUDE.

And a majority of white America voted against themselves because of racism, white fear and the hole they dug for people of color and immigrants they dug for themselves. All of them knew what he was going to do and it fine as long as it didn't impact them. Democrats and Independents will not fix the racist problem. We will take a back seat and let Republicans and MAGA fix the problem they created with evil intent or will they let the USA burn to the ground?
