WATCH AND SEE CHINA STEP UP AND BECOME THE LEADER AND MOST POWERFUL COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. We used to have that title, but thanks to Trump we will go down as smart an embarrassment ?

It's so funny to see ignorant magas who seem to have absolutely no idea that it was their Dear Leader who negotiated and signed USMCA ?

Now this is a real leader.

So proud of you prime minister Justin Trudeau stood up to a non leader uneducated drump pm JT you showed how a true leader should speak so articulate and with class and intelligence so sorry you are resining will miss you good luck and God bless you ??

Trudeau your time is up......Big D is going to kick your ass\n\nThe Canadian deserve a strong leader

America, how does it feels having a leader who can speak in above a fifth-grade level vocabulary? In his second language no less.

I just can't understand WHY, WHY A TRADE WAR WITH CANADA?!?!?!?! That's so STUPID!\n\nThats a real leader posture.

? Trudeau another failing leader who has announced he’s stepping down because he would be voted out anyway this is about fair trade pretty simple you charge us we charge you the same rate

I’m American…Trump isn’t 1/4 the leader PM JT is. God bless Canada…FDT

We are with you Canada. Trump will ruin America. The world will not stand for a narcissistic leader.

The whiplash of being faced by a dementing adult toddler versus real world leaders who have large, eloquent vocabularies and expansive experience is so painful.

I wish our current and past president spoke this well. Obama was the last time I could stand to hear our leader talk, and I didn't even vote for him [Obama].

Trudeau is the epitome of a compassionate, transparent and STRONG leader. As an American, I can confirm that we have the exact opposite infesting the White House. Canada.....please proceed. Show America what the government here is REALLY about. Thank you!

I’m sooo tired of foreign leaders say Trump is aligning with Putin! He never said that! Americans know he is trying to help make peace between Ukraine and Russia to end a war which is also in Canada and the rest of the world’s best interests! I hate the deceptive media! Canada, we are in debt up to our eyeballs and won’t be able to remain a nation without hard monetary choices but to say Trump aliegns with Putin is a cheap shot to get away with what you do now.

Why can't we have a mature leader like Canada has??? Oh, maga voted for an imbecile - sorry world, it was not me that did that!!

This is how a leader should speak. Impressive.

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

The United States has no president Trump is no longer the president of the United States he is going to be charged for high treason the United States citizens do not recognize Trump as president they do not recognize JD Vance the world must see and know this the American people do not do not recognize Trump as our leader he is a traitor to America and works for Russia do not trade with Trump any country that trades with Trump will be ripped off robbed or stolen from and their money will go straight to Russia

Can all African leaders gather here and see how a leader speak... I love you sir.

Im from Quebec, i know US peoples don't hate us, its just a bad leader takes wrong decision...

Wow, you start pointing fingers at leaders of other countries yet nothing about the genocide leader of that other country? You sound like such a whiny pathetic leader, no wonder your country hates you. Stop trying to scare us the common folks, deal with the problem directly with the US fascist but he has zero respect for you. How did both you & ? get elected ?

Bye bye castro junior. Have fun with your trade war. When you Canadians elect a real leader maybe we can talk.

Now that's a leader ,not a fat orange cu.t that's only concerned about himself . What's up with you yanks voting this wan.er as president ? .

As a South African, I'm SO impressed with Mr Trudeau . Those are the world leaders we need. USA , Trump, has overplayed his hand. Thanks to Musk's advice USA is Sinking

When are political leaders going to wake and.realise Trump is making excuses as a means to destroy the US for Putin?

As a Kenyan, I support Canada. You have a leader for a PM. Wish we had this kind of leadership in this doomed country.

Trump didn't just start a war with America's s solidarity leaders. He also started a war within and it's growing bigger. Pray for us leaders and people of the free world for we have a fight on our hands.

As an American, I am disgusted by our leaders and government. I wish I could move to Canada where there people are treated better. I did not vote for this. It sucks that gas is going to go up and I commute to work. And groceries going up too it's a shame. America supposed to be the better country but it's not. I stand with Canada and Ukraine❤❤

CNN is so trash news. Did they even listen to what this so called leader even said?

PDF file is so intelligent and such a honest good leader. Country is thriving under him ?

Please clarify why JT decided to send more aid to the Ukraine just a week before Trump was to negotiate a peace deal with Zelenskyy ? I think Canadians need to wake up \nAnd see who really are the bad guys .Too bad we don’t have a strong leader like the US .Little too late to be playing tough guy after he killed our country dont you think ??

Finally world leaders are speaking out. The correction wont occur from within but from without.

Been whatever on Trudeau but he's talking some clear words here, our European leaders should follow and also work closer with Canada.\nAlso our politicians should discontinue using X as a platform to communicate with the electorate - it's undemocratic.

Welldone a great leader ??????⚜️⚜️⚜️from France ❤️ \n\nEurope is not weak they should respond directly in the same way...to much talking in Europe time to act... becarefull not to use drugs or fentinole to Big brothers your population ?

You are Fake News ! Trudeau is a Weak Leader ! Lets give this tuff guy a few weeks. Irrelevant!

GREAT speech , showing he is a real leader! USA is no longer a friend, it has the highest form of espionage in the White House, the president him self !! But Canadian people . Europe will be with you !! #europeforcanada !! I will not buy anything USA any more

We have chosen a foolish leader and we are dealing with the consequences! America must be ashamed of ourselves

He was and has always been a weak leader. They took advantage of Americans and we are clapping back by our elected leader. Time to pay your fair share. #51

Trudeau himself is a wanna-be dictator. He has said he wants to be just like China's leader so therefore I don't believe anything that comes out his mouth!!

I would be so ashamed if the other leaders of the world would have to talk to my president like to a little spoiled brat...good luck to everyone in the US

Nice to see a leader standing up to Trump. Trudeau is showing leadership and trying to explain to American how tariffs work. It would be good if Trump understood the pain he will cause Americans. We need an adult in the White House.

Lots of nice words of support from Americans, but “thoughts and prayers” are not enough — now is the time to take action! If you truly support Canada and Ukraine, let your congressperson and senators know how you feel. Voice your anger at town halls, write your leaders, protest in the streets, and for god’s sake, stop buying Teslas!

I'm not Canadian, but I do feel it's a real shame that President Trudeau is withdrawing...I understand that he's not perfect, but compared to who you have on the other side of the border, he's brilliant..and I really think that he is exactly the right person to have as a leader at this crazy moment in time.

Us Americans are proud that Canada is fighting this. We are a country with leaders that are crazy idiots, criminals, jerks and oligarchs playing with autocracy. America is falling over a cliff because of this group! 3:33

Our pathetic little leader looks so pleased about this, wonder why?

thats a real leader and not elon and his little dictator puppet trump. be more respectful to your allies. we in europe will take everthing canada has to offer!!

This is what a Leader looks like. Canada Is NOT FOR SALE!

I stand with America first, that is why I voted for and stand with President Trump? democRats are just brainwashed , fake news drinkers! America voted for President Trump? democRats get over your pathetic rhetoric, America is fed up with men in little girls bathrooms, tampons and condoms in preschool rooms, putting America last, locking up parents fighting for our kids rights, getting us into multiple wars, inflation, weak leaders and corrupt leaders?

What’s up with these other world leaders trying to speak directly to American people, we voted for him, talk to your own people

Caaaaareful tough guy. Like Trump told Zalinsky .....you have ZERO cards. Trudeau has been trying to ignite hatred against the Trump party since day one. Trying to look tough in front of Canadians. Then he goes to Marlago and sucks Trumps dyck and leaves eith his tail between his legs. Socialist leaders are all done. Their politics are dead. Leftists have destroyed everything in their paths for 70 years now. The only people left that are.....left.....is the Governments and the LGBT
