They cut out the part where Trudeau talked about trump wanting to annex canada ?

Trudeau is lying. Trump ain't smart. Trump is an imbecile. A disgusting imbecile to be precise.

Wicked Trump is trying to cripple Canada so they will surrender their territory to him AND Trudeau being welcomed at the Euro Summit over the weekend has angered dearest Divinity Caligula. Things don't end well for tyrants and the enabling sycophants they surround themselves with...history rhymes but it also repeats itself......

trudeau says Trump wants a total collapse of the Canadian economy. trudeau is so much like Trump, he worships the man, repeats every word Trump says...

The reality is: the US has reached a record high trade deficit with Canada. This deficit has grown steadily since 1976 (today it is just shy of $100 billion - meaning the US purchases $100 billion more worth of goods from Canada than Canada does from the US). The US imposing tariffs on Canada is a tactic to incentivize US companies who import goods from Canada to move manufacturing/production sourcing back to American soil. This promotes investment and expansion into the US economy. It will also incentivize Canada to commit to investing in the US economy. This would be a negotiation move by Trudeau: we (Canada) will commit to purchasing $25 billion (for example) dollars more of goods from the US if you agree to reduce the tariffs you've imposed on us to blank (maybe 5%). This is likely the end goal Trump is aiming for in the long run.

Trudeau should have been truthful, Trump is dumb as nails.

Meanwhile TRUMP ON TRUTH SOCIAL -\n\nPlease explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!\n\n????

Justin Trudeau lied through his teeth when he said the Trump is a very smart guy.\nI've seen absolutely no evidence of any intelligence in Donald Trump.

Looks as if Trudeau has learned nothing from Zelenskyy’s mistake. Getting nasty with Trump is a HUGE mistake!

Is there no one at CNN who can translate French? Really? I'm American, and I'm hoping Trudeau announces that he's making trade deals with Europe (and even China) that cut us out. Betraying our allies should never be incentvised. I'm even hoping they cut off our oil, which WILL jack gas prices, since our refineries in the Midwest are only deisgned to process Canadian crude. And the truth is that the reason for the tariffs is that Trump has direct control over them, and can probably have Elon do something with the revenue that couldn't be done with normal taxes. We're all getting screwed here.

I am American and i disavow are evil leadership. Trump is a dark thing to happen to this country. I stand with Canada and Trudeau. These are dark times. Maga is very popular here and I think vance could be the next president for 8 years. Maga is evil and must be defeated.

Trudeau made Trump's looks very dumb

It's a shame Trudeau still had to temper his criticism of Trump when he knows exactly what type of narcissistic moronic psychopath he really is.

Prime Minister Trudeau, your stats and evidence are clear but they won’t move Trump because facts make no difference to him!

Go Trump. Trudeau confiscated bank accounts of truckers who protested his violation of our body autonomy. We know what Canada has done and how they operate. You are the problem.

Yeah, ?-for-brains Trudeau saying that what Trump is doing is a dumb thing. The irony. Meanwhile, nobody can name ONE thing that Trudeau the narcissistically Indoctrinated alt-left Woke neo-Marxist dictator wannabe has done that wasn't a dumb thing. Trudeau the incompetent, incoherent, unethical, immoral, corrupt douchebag is throwing stones

WE WILL STAND STRONG TRUDEAU,,THE BEST IVE EVER SEEN IN YOUR CHARACHTER,,WELL DONE!! CANADIANS HAVE THE PUCK IN THEIR CORNER !! SCORE AND GIVE TRUMP THE PENALTY OR KICK HIM OUT OF THE GAME HE HAS NO SKILLS FOR!!! OH MY CANADA , GLORIUOS STRONG AND FREE ! UNITED WITH UKRAINE ,,SAME DAY TODAY TRUMP STOPPED ALL WEAPONS SUPPORT ,RISKING THOUSANDS OF LIVES IN UKRAINE ,,FAMILIES KIDS ,TROOPS ,,DISCUSTING TRUMP VANCE MUSK ,,TWO JECKYLS AND ONE MARTIAN ALIEN DRINKING TOO MANY LITHIUM TESLA MILKSHAKES?

The only lie told by Trudeau is that Trump is a smart man.

???Kudos and well done Great Justin Trudeau✊ for Educating the dum dummer so called American Garbage President. Donald Trump is too Gramps and Stupid in the Brain ? to be a Leader of any Nation or President of any Nation. Is a Shame that those Americans that fall for all his lies and Propaganda to get him elected are bunch of BOZOS, because they are the one to face the dyer consequences.

As a Canadian, I'm actually proud of Prime Minister Trudeau. Canadians stand up to bullies, GOP need to be afraid (politically) of their constituents not Trump!

Trudeau doesn't stand for Canada just like Trump doesn't help America

Trump just wants Trudeau to act like a man. Since that's not possible, the beatings will continue.

I guarantee Trump wears tighty whitey walter white underwear and i would bet the farm that every single pair he owns has shit stain streaks in them. \n\nI guarantee Trudeau wear thongs and every single pair has pee stains in them\n\n\nWe are all fucked

Trudeau came right out and said Trump is attempting to bankrupt Canada in order to annex her. Trump certainly is stupid enough for such a plan.

I will trade Trump, Musk and the entire GOP for Justine Trudeau.

How dare Trump make me listen to Justin Trudeau.

Lol\nI love that Trudeau has to call Trump smart but this particular action stupid.\nIn the meantime, he knows just as well as everybody that Trump is an idiot. Little Donald isn‘t smart, Little Donald is a moron.

Save us Mr. Trudeau!! A HUGE majority of Americans didn't vote for Trump. We are suffering under his Maga and racism.

Can I say I am not a huge fan of Trudeau, but I take my hat off and say bravo for this speech. Calling Putin a 'lying, murderous dictator' is absolutely correct. In recent days all Trump's YES people when asked direct simply questions like 'Was Russia and Putin responsible for the invasion of Ukraine', simply can't bring themselves to answer anymore. We talk about Trump Derangement Syndrome, well all these Trump ring kissers are suddenly suffering from Putin Infatuation Disorder, one of the key symptoms being an inability to criticise or apportion wrong doing or blame on Putin. Bravo again Trudeau for being blunt, honest and direct, this orange ape needs to go.

Trump is the best thing that could have happened to Trudeau. Finally a politician Canadians hate more than him.

I take my hat off for Mr. Trudeau and regarding Trump, Well, stupid is what stupid does!

I heard Trump imposed tariffs because Melania preferred Trudeau

The Prime Minister of Canada of Justin Trudeau Trudeau is a true leader that Trump should pattern INSTEAD of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. \nAs an American in the USA, I stand by Canada and Mexico and will support you both $$$ and travel to your beloved countries!!!

Proud to be Canadian and happy that Trudeau has finally said that this was not about fentanyl and border security. This is about applying economic pressure to annex Canada. Trump needed a reason to declare an emergency so that he could break the USMCA agreement.❤??

Trudeau is not very smart. He says there are no winners in a trade war. If he decides to have one, it is the U.S. who is easily going to come out on top. This may be the preparation to do what's right. He knows President Trump is right. If they charge 15% tariff so will we. That's only fair. We aren't charging more, just lets be on a level playing field.

Trump lost to Trudeau lol

As a Canadian it's well known that Trump hates Trudeau. Hopefully Carney can talk some sense to the Orange One.

Trudeau was rather unpopular not long ago. But thanks to Trump, he is now absolutely adored and comes across as a phenomenal leader.

Canada will be implementing 25% tariffs against $155 billion worth of American goods, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a press conference Tuesday. \n \nSpeaking from Ottawa, Trudeau said there was “absolutely no justification or need whatsoever” for the tariffs imposed by the US on Canada, which went into effect today. \n \nThe prime minister explained that $30 billion worth of US goods would see tariffs immediately, while the remaining $125 billion worth of goods would see tariffs in 21 days. \n \nTrudeau added that Canada will file claims at the World Trade Organization, but in the meantime, “our tariffs will remain in place until the US tariffs are withdrawn and not a moment sooner.” \n \nThe prime minister also again hit back against US assertions about Canada being unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl. \n \nHe said the legal pretext Trump presented for the justification of the tariffs —“that Canada is apparently unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl” — is “totally false.”

Very good summary. I will add that our I know you wanted to be concise and you nailed it. For anyone who is curious about how our politics make everything worse for us federally, let me explain it in a short time.\n\nTrudeau as of the day of this video, March 3, 2025, is STILL the PM. He said he WOULD resign once a new leader was picked through a democratic process. Right now, he's basically just doing photo ops in Ukraine, UK and anywhere else on our dime because Parliament is prorogued and the party in power, Liberal, is having a leadership race. So, while he may resign within the week once that leadership race is done, he's still technically in charge.\n\nWhat makes that race and the PM's prorogation so bad is that we're in the middle of a crisis - several actually - caused in part directly by Trudeau and his Liberals (and the NDP supporting them). The latest would be Trump's tariffs starting today, March 4, 2025. Trudeau always disappears during a crisis, leaving us to fend for ourselves - (1) COVID, he was at the cottage using every excuse not to be accountable for anything or using unconstitutional powers to crush a protest he didn't know how to handle, (2) Chinese spies, he's ignoring our intelligence service, (3) federal worker strike, he's in NYC at some gala.... I could go on but there's a reason we're hurting so bad.\n\nWe have zero federal leadership, and a federal government that makes things worse for us with things like: over-regulation, subsidizing media to keep us misinformed, nerfing select natural resource sectors but favoring others (oil and gas suffer, while coal is fine... probably because we sell it to China, but I digress), letting criminal out of jail, uncontrolled immigration, passing policies like the FHSA that drive home prices higher and higher, and of course, more and more taxes. I could go on about the billions in taxpayers' money the government blows - it's like a black hole - or the fact that MPs keep getting raises - April 1 is their fifth since COVID - and most federal and government employees are all getting raises at a time when the rest of us are learning to get by with less and less because we're taxed so much and housing, groceries, etc. are so unaffordable.\n\nI have applied for US citizenship. I want to stick around to fix Canada, but I think it's too far gone. We have too many socialists/communists in power and they're not getting voted out any time soon. It's been fun Canada, it's been fun.

Support Ukraine all the way to WW3? These liberals talk big, but they have starved the military for the past 10 years under Trudeau. Trump is right, we've been riding on the coattails of theur military for the past 50 to 60 years.

I'm from Canada ?? \nI love how Trump forced our Liberal Government too finally shiut down our open boarders .This is how Trudeau got votes .\nBring in illegals and steal votes .\nGod Bless Trump❤

For many years, Canada did little. Trudeau counseled 'compassion'. Donald Trump made Canada do something, and Turdeau whined.

Trump did not achieve the increase in Canada border enforcement. That was a deal made between Trudeau and Biden. You can search for it and see it was in the news last year. Thankful that Trump didn’t cancel that cooperation, granted we shall see with the pending deadline for tariffs.

Trudeau is playing dirty not holding to his promises and he will just throw Canada right in Trump's hands ?

India has most imagrants settling in Canada, Africans settled in Jamaica soon Canada will look more like India mutch like Jamaica looks like Africa. As long as imagrants are law biding that's growth. Shouldn't be bias and welcome imagrants. USA has Soo mutch land to offer only kamala Harris plan to open boarders more to India Pakistan failed. Trump like controlled boarders were Canada Trudeau welcomes imagrants from Pakistan, India. Trudeau's lust and lack of brains towards sinful same sex. God says in holly Bible in Leviticus same sex is sinful. Foreign countries imagrants flee to Canada and USA to practice sinful same sex. With crime increasing with imagrants stolen cars as shipped over seas, Canada has to deport all criminals and there whole family only then would imagrants be mindful knowing they'll get there whole family deported at this point its a joke biggest gold hesist at Toronto airport prime example besides imagrants on news always for crimes like crime theft, sexual crimes, fraud. Welcome to Canada were leaders are too bussy making corrupt deals for new highways, (Ford) Trudeau's biggest latest scam high speed rail from Toronto just to Quebec. Forcing every province pay for French scam of year stealing tax payers dollars from all province. Trudeau saying using Canadain steel only was to blindly fool Ontario to think Trudeau's saving jobs when fact is hese stealing tax payers money all across Canada for a French project that only Quebec wants so French can see CN TOWER,NIAGRA FALLS.

So let me get this staight. Criminals allowed into Canada and then cross the border in the US\nHow did they get into Canada in the first place. Oh yea, Trudeau let them in with little or no vetting. No wonder Trump is doing what he is doing to Canada . Trudeau has got to go. Resign and someone else as PM.

? President Trump needs to arrest Trudeau!

Trump was absolutely right on his position on Justin Trudeau...

President Trump is right I'm a Canadian and I fully agree trudeau legalizing drugs cause more then he thinks one way to stop it is to audit the comical companies to whom and why and are the a legally to a drug manufacture and so on and Canada has to reverse the legalizing narcotics (DRUG ARE NOT SAFE)
