As someone on the right of the political spectrum, I never thought I would ever agree with a word that Trudeau says.\nAnd yet here we are. He's right. Absolutely right. \n\nAnd time passes. Where we are today might not be where we are tomorrow. Ok, go and shit all over your closest friends. But understand that the world can change very quickly. You might one day need that friend.

One minute yall call Trudeau a buffon and next yall call him a great leader! All yall people on here are fake!! Wishy washy supporters!

Mmm....????.\nWhy are we even listening to a guy who resigned to lead our nation ?\nNobody understands he and his party are the root of the problem ?.\nHe's a complete incompetent, and he's the one responsible for all this mess.\nNow, he's worried about the border and the fentanil crisis, when everyone in BC knows that the mountains are full in laboratories producing fentanil..\nNow, he's worried about Canadians and crisis..\nWhen he's leaving the country sunk in the biggest debt of all times...\nSeriously, this is FUBAR.\nEnough is enough Trudeau, you already did enough damage, step away for the benefit of Canadians.\nGo, just go away and forever.

One of the best speeches of modern times, you are amazing Trudeau, the only one that has stood up to this tyrany, all my love from Ireland. Stand strong Cananda, Europe is with you.

Trudeau making a strong case, but will Trump even listen? This situation is a mess, and everyday people will be the ones paying the price

Well done Justin Trudeau, we're proud of you. You said it with firm voice and with determination. You are one son of the soil, unlike weak and wavering Pollivere and Danielle Smith.\nWe still want you to be our PM.

Trudeau reminds me of a third grader that just had his lunch money taken by one of the bullies in class. He then goes and tells his mommy he is going to kick the bullies a$$ as soon as a cow flys over the moon!

Good on you prime minister Trudeau! This is real diplomacy and wisdom. Your experience will prevail and the world will see who is the king. Because right now one king is completely naked! Bravo!?❤️????

Come on people. This man Trudeau is NOT wanted nor liked by Canadians. He has been the one to cause Canadians harm!! Do your research!! But I know Dems can’t do research. They only spread rumors & lies. \nCNN Should not even be aloud to communicate any news, until they can communicate truthfully.

I hope Justin Trudeau comes back as leader of the Liberals in Canada. Of course he has to do some reflection as to where he might have gone wrong, and to learn from his mistakes. Perhaps learn how to make better decisions in the interest of Canadians. It's brilliant the way Trudeau is handling these crises for his country created by none other than thug, convicted felon/rapist/liar/insurrectionist Drumpf. Justin Trudeau is an educated man who speaks two languages fluently. Drumpf on the other hand is poorly educated and can hardly speak one language which is supposedly to be English. Drumpf can only yell, lie, slander and insult. What an oaf

I finally have respect and admiration for Trudeau. I wanted him to resign, but not if he can beat Trumpler at this trade war. I'm so very sorry to you Americans...at least to all the ones who did NOT vote for that Clownident.

few month ago trudeau one the most hated politician in canada now people forget it how they hated their headsman . And claim him as hero .

One thing Trudeau can actually do that will help is reducing a lot of restrictive business regulation.

Prime Minister Trudeau was wrong about one thing. That was saying Trump is a smart guy.

Trudeau makes no sense. Is he not the one acting like a dictator? Some people don't forget what you did Mr. Trudeau.

Why is Justin Trudeau still talking when no one wants him in Canada

Trudeau is a joke. While he is pushing his agenda. Fur starters, he fails to mention the trade deficit with the usa. So bottom line while everyone loses, canada loses more. The us can survive a lot easier without canada, while canada will suffer a lot more without the usa.\n\nWhen i bring cheese from the usa to canada, there is a 200% tax on anything above my $20 personal exemption, the save is not the same when bringing dairy to the usa.\n\nIf you want to be treated fairly, treat others fairly.\n\nAfter watching zelensky from Ukraine, Trudeau is pretty stupid if he thinks he will win this one.

Trump simply asked to stop the illegals and fentenal coming to our country threw yours!! He asked you and you said you would, the same as mexico. Apparently your operations are not working for one reason or another! HONOR YOUR COMMITMENT! Mr. Trudeau simply call president Trump and discuss the numbers and come up.with a new idea on how to stop this agreed upon situation! Montana Rick.

This is one of the best moments for Trudeau as PM. Well done matey.

Trudeau, my brother, My words cannot begin to express to you or your people just how genuinely sorry I am for my country's utterly repulsive and inexcusable behavior throughout the last month and a half and for the downright cruel, hostile treatment you've suffered at the hands of the most incompetent, greedy, poorly educated, narcissistic, racist, sexist, xenophobic buffoon to ever preside over the United States. Not only is Donald Trump an overly privileged, pathetic, whiney crybaby who literally folds his arms, stomps his feet, and launches an all out temper tantrum whenever he doesn't get his way or when someone else has the TV remote, he is a dangerously delusional, high stakes risk taker who wouldn't think twice about using his own mother or child as a human body shield if he thought his life were in danger. There is absolutely no value, principle, moral or ethic he wouldn't betray without hesitation if he suspects there is anything at all to be gained - you know, the type of guy who would poison the entire neighborhood in order to hoard all the complimentary tampons and lip gloss samples from his neighbors' mail boxes just to ensure that he got first dibs on everything before anyone else. Incidentally, he is also the same type of guy who pockets all the flavored mini coffee creamers from the gas station and all the paper bed sheets and Qtips from the doctor's office. I wouldn't put it past him to steal the waitresses' tips off tabletops on his way out the door upon leaving McDonald's. In fact, I would bet everything that he steals the donation jars for Jerry's Kids at the local supermarket. I mean, its already a given that he is likely the guy who filed a lawsuit a few summers back against a sweet, innocent littls FOUR year old boy for having a lemonade stand on property not zoned for commercial use. If it wasn't Trump then I'm sure it's only because he was too busy ordering the National Guard to power hose and pepper spray the 30 or so elderly nuns who had been distributing bottled water to folks demonstrating in support of Black Lives Matter on the hottest day of the year. Satisfied in his victorious battle against the nuns - 9 of whom had been hospitalized for critical injuries including the 92 year old Mother Superior who suffered massive brain bleed, swelling and concussion due to the excessive force of the power hose and an 87 year old nun who lost permanent sight in one eye due to the pepper spray - Trump had the nerve to pose for a publicity shot in front of the church while holding a Bible - UPSIDE DOWN - and scrunching and contorting his face into that hideous trademark scowl he does ever so naturally. Yep. This is the man my fellow Americans chose to represent our nation as President - a man who beats up 90 year old nuns and imposes 25% tax hikes to our ONLY FRIEND in the entire world simply for refusing to accept his invitation for statehood. I mean, come on, Trudeau, is that really asking too much of you? Was it really worth bruising Donny's fragile little ego and sending him into a fit of rage? (Seriously, though, I suspect he really does feel as though you are in the wrong for refusing to humor his delusions and thus embarrassing him in front of all his Russian dictator and Ku Klux Klan buddies.)\nOnce again, I do humbly apologize and I promise I will support whatever actions you choose to take and I will help you in any way you deem is best. \nMuch love and peace always, \nMs. S. Delois Jackson

Trudeau is a lying murderous dictator! Take one to know one

As an American, I just want my fellow Americans to know that even Canadians don’t want Justin Trudeau. The guy’s like a malfunctioning AI chatbot—spitting out pre-programmed nonsense nobody asked for while the crowd collectively checks their watches. He’s the political version of a participation trophy: loud, useless, and only still around because no one’s taken out the trash yet. Watching him talk smack to cameras is like watching a mime in a hurricane—pointless, painful, and embarrassing for everyone involved.

Wow. The president of one country insults the president of another country. And one who is twice as old as Trudeau. What rude people.

This is leadership, devoid of self-interest, bigotry, cowardice, or division. It is hard to be misrepresented by “Donald”, who is desecrating what it means to be an American. Prime Minister Trudeau’s speech is inspirational and would fill me with fighting spirit if I were a Canadian. “Donald” contributed the divisions in our country and now he is isolating us from our allies. As Americans, we are stuck in a relationship with an over narcissist. Being American stays alive in every one of us who upholds the ideals of our country. A president is a civil servant, so he is our employee. He does not behave like an employee and as such, he should be fired. It is what “Donald” would do. ??‍♂️

Let's all start fresh NO MORE FOREIGN AID!! Done - Finished - we don't owe anything to any one and I don't need Trudeau speaking to me. He has a failing economy and it has been failing since he came in ~ now he wants to blame Trump! Everything here should be MADE IN AMERICA!!

Trudeau is wrong about one thing: Trump is not smart. Trump is a fucking moron. And so is anyone who still supports him.\nFAFO

Mr Trudeau, most Americans are with you 100%. We don’t want this, it’s ridiculous. Please know this Trump action is not the will of the American people. He acts alone and with stupidity that cannot be explained. We love Canada, Mexico, Europe, and all our allies. I feel we are being held hostage by one man and his sycophant cult. Please help us. ?

Trudeau is not a scumbag let somebody name starting with t and his cronies yeah they made a good deal and he broke it Trudeau is a real politician and he's for the betterment of his people and his neighbors Trump and his people or not I'm with you so I'm with Trudeau and all-americans who don't want a dictatorship I will not bow down to a self-made King with tin plated ego with delusional of God hood that go's for Elon also needer is not a good business man always had some one do it for them \n.that drug who owns ships qe all know Trump lies and musk??

Trudeau is just butthurt that American dollars are not going one-way into Canada any longer. He's a liar and a terrible leader. Everyone in the comments saying he's intelligent. No, on the contrary, he's a moron. Smooth talk doesn't make one intelligent.

I’m an Indigenous American here, I say if Canada was really our friend then they would understand that they have been taking advantage of our countries kindness for too long and it’s time they step up.. If us trying to do something good for our own country for one time instead of everybody else and it’s a problem like this then maybe we weren’t friends anyway.. That means u were only friendly bc u were taking advantage.. \nPlenty of other countries has decided to pick up their own slack and it’s time Canada and America and the other countries start focusing more on their own citizens.. \nThis man is ready to send Canadian soldiers to die in Ukraine right now for something that has nothing to do with them and now instead of negotiating an agreement it’s all about relation and hurting your own people to get back at others over something you took personally..\nI always liked Trudeau but if that’s how he feels about our country then that’s how we feel about his.. \nwe don’t care about Canada anymore except justing Bieber and Linus media group.. everyone else can go lol..

Born in Europe, brought up and trained into my profession as a researcher, in France, in the UK, in the Middle East, in Africa, and having been a permanent resident of the USA for almost 25 years, I can state that I agree 100 with what Trudeau stated, with the exception of one little detail If Donald Trump is as Mr. Trudeau suggests, an intelligent man, than he is simply detesting all Americans... and if is able to prove me wrong than one has to accept that Mr. Trudeau is wrong in believing Mr Trump to be an intelligent man, because even a ten-year-old is understanding that this tariff war is truly stupid and will not only damage the economy but will further deplete the coffers of businesses that are essential to world growth.

I rarely speak...yet I should have been there before this happened and voted in the favor of Justin Trudeau. Shocked by fellow people claiming his behavior. But I see he stepped out on his own to own it. I'm a very proud Scientologist and believe in you. I believe in Mr Hubbard yet no one has seen the world to freedom as Trudeau is. All else are speculation and worry of doubt and incapable abilities that help no one. Huh.

THIS IS A LEADER! This is how a leader should speak. Without an ounce of arrogance but full of factful compassion. Truth be told, Mr Trudeau is one of my favourite leaders of a country. He may have issues, but which leader doesn't right. Look at what Trump is doing now. Great speech, Sir. I feel so proud of ??.

Have to say Trudeau stepped it up on this one Thankyou. No winner is correct.

I really believe that it just comes down to Trump feeling resentment that he will never be part of a perceived 'inner circle' of establishment world leaders. It's probably over that one time when they were caught on a hot mic dissing him with Trudeau kind of leading the pack. Over the years Trump has shown over and over again that he is that petty and all of his decisions have an absolutely childish basis, yet the American people voted him in a second time. I've run out of patience with the American people too. They're not really doing anything about this except saying online that they support Canada just so they can feel a little better about themselves. If you guys want a dumpy predator for president that's your business but I will be doing my part to fight him and his unjust attacks against my country.

This American, who's been proud to be one all his, life (but not so much these last few weeks)stands with Canada, Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the besieged Ukraine, and I do not support's authoritarian rule and and stupid, ego-driven economic wars with our neighbors and allies. Trudeau is what a real leader sounds like.

Native Floridian in the US here sending big hugs out to Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau, Ukraine and President Zelenskyy, and Mexico and La Presidenta Claudia Sheinbaum❣️ I wish my one vote and activism had been enough to stop the re-election of such a horrid, arrogant individual back into our WH. It all makes sense if he is aligning us with Russia

Trudeau is a liar and Canada will loose this one

I'm a Canadian who has always voted for Prime Minister Trudeau and I will continue to vote liberal. I heard a person on the Jake Tapper, C NN, this afternoon say all the companies are coming to the USA not Canada, he didn't mention that they come because they don't have to pay a lot of taxes. Us Canadians take great offense that the spawn of the devil wants to annex our country and he refers to our Prime Minister as governor. The orange dumb criminal and his maggots would probably give part of our country to snakehead war tyrant putin who has interest in the Artic and that would involve Greenland. We Canadians don't want to make life difficult for the American people but the dumb evil cheeto likes tariffs. President Zelenski didn't start the war and he won't be the one to start WW3. putin is a war criminal who controls the criminal organization in the White House and it's leader. President Zelenski be careful the spawn of the devil ? and war tyrant can't be trusted. ?????

I agree with Trudeau excepting one statement Trump is NOT smart he is a total fool, Putin's puppet and a traitor.

I am not a fan of Trudeau and prefer Pierre but I am not above giving Justin credit for this address. Where was this Justin when we needed him. Anyways credit to Justin no matter my stand because one can see it in his face he isn’t happy and means it . ?

Trudeau, one of the most woke leaders ever that lacks the COMMONSENSE Trump came in to restore. He needs to be impeached for his incompetence. I stand fully with Trump

Trudeau trunp has no allies... that is the damn sad truth for the American people, too. Sad day, & yet another day I'm embarrassed to be an American. I live in this state of shock, though I shouldn't be. He's a f'n moron. I hate this man who is supposed to be the president of the UNITED STATES. He's done nothing but cause chaos everywhere. Stick it to us Trudeau, I for one do not blame you at all. It's really pissing me off. He does not know what he's doing, nor do those around him. There is no winning with this loser.

GO TRUDEAU!!!!!\nAnd GO ?? CANADA.\n\nIn the UK we love the ?? USA! Of course we do! Trump, Vance and Musk are utter nuggets, one is a fool, one is a South African Neo Nazis and one is an angry twat! \n\nNo F@CK TRUMP! Bollocks to Tesla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\n\nLove ❤ to Canada ?

As a Canadian Trudeau is a fool. He's one of the most hated, if not the most hated Prime Minister in history. He's a known liar and has acted like a dictator in this country over his tenure and continues to send OUR money to fight a war on the Ukraine that most Canadians have no interest in. It's funny reading Americans and people all over praising this guy. If you like him so much, you can keep him. Most people would he glad to be rid of Trudeau.

WOW U ALL R MAKING THIS MAN A ROCKSTAR JUST BY THIS ONE INTERVIEW ??? PPL STOP GOING BY ONE INTERVIEW THIS MAN HAS TURNED ON HIS OWN COUNTRY BUT U GO BY HIS DEMEANOR AND U ALL FORGET WHAT HE HAS DONE HES A DAMN TRADER BUT WOW HOW WE FORGOT THAT HE CANT B TRUSTED AND BELIEVE ME TRUMP ISNT NOTHING BUT PUTTING HIS PPL FIRST! WATCH GIVE A FEW MONTHS AND EVERYTHING THAT TRUMP IS DOING WILL FLOURISH BC HE HAD AN INTERVIEW WITH OPRAH IN THE 90sAND HE WASNT A POLITICIAN THEN BUT WAS ASKED WOULD HE EVER RUN FOR PRESIDENT AND HE SAID; PROBABLY NOT BUT IF I DID I WOULD DEFINITELY GO AFTER THE COUNTRIES THAT R RIPPING US OFF WITH TARIFFS ON AMERICA BUT HERE WE ARE TODAY AND TRUMP HAS NEVER SAID THINGS THAT HE DIDNT BELIEVE THAT WAS RIGHT FOR AMERICA! BUT THIS IDIOT IS THROWING LIES BC HES UPSET BC TRUMP PUT TARIFFS BACK ON CANADA AND NOW HES ASSOCIATING WITH PUTIN! WOW WHAT THE MEDIA DOES TO EVERYONE DO UR RESEARCH BEFORE BELIEVING A TRADER, OWE THOSE R FACTS RESEARCH TRUDEAU IS A TRADER DONT BELIEVE ME RESEARCH SHIT BEFORE YALL MAKE COMMENTS

Although I don't support Mr. Trudeau, these tariffs help no one

I find it particularly effective that Canada is focusing on red state America. Kentucky alcohol is just one example. Prime Minister Trudeau is also targeting those issues that they can most effectively respond, like electricity in the norther tier, LNG (shifting to EU). Trump is screwing over our closest and greatest allies, in deference to Putin, a war criminal.

Completely with you Mr. Trudeau, You had one thing wrong though, the fact that trump is a smart man.

Trump is friend only to himself. Beyond that, I'm wondering if he is a Russian asset. What did he and Putin talk about in Helsinki in 2018, when no one else was allowed inside the room, very much against protocol? There are simply too many odd Trump-Russia incidents to ignore this, starting with Paul Manafort passing Trump campaign intel to Konstantin Kilimnik. I think there is cause for investigation. And frankly, spying on Trump should they find anything that warrants it. Canada rocks. I ordered a new Canada t-shirt and I'm going to wear it in public. Trump sucks golf balls. Thinking about getting a Gulf of Mexico shirt too. Trump is making Trudeau into a hero all of a sudden. LOL, way to go dumb orange president.
