Refreshing to listen to someone who is logical and intelligent and respectful

A Prime Minister who respect human rights, promote transparency, and prevent corruption. With all my Respect, thank you Monsieur Premier Ministre ?. I am a very Proud Canadian ??

I am so sorry Justin Trudeau, you have the admiration and respect of so many of us in the U.S. and we didn't want this AT ALL.

Where are all the MAGA supporters??? This thread is too reasonable and level-headed. Well, I guess they are losing steam. Trump is a bully and an embarrassment on the world stage as far as this US citizen is concerned. Where is Elon Mush? I used to have some respect for Elon, but jumping in bed with Trump is a mistake Mush will come to regret. I guess I need to protect my retirement investment portfolio - I think Trump will decimate it by destabilizing the stock market's confidence like this. sigh...

This dude is a joke. Canadians dont even respect this dude

Trafis = taxes. Trump is rising taxes, causing inflation, recession. Trump is the greatest crook. USA has to stop Trump. Americans are the 1 st victim of trump. He is making himself, musk, zuckerberg and all the mega rich more rich.\nThe normal American will be working slave to the neo nazi trump regime. A convicted crook, cheated on every wife he got, a pirate, a bully without friends. He is a low life. Vance a guy with colored hair and eyeliner, looks all the time like is is being potty trained .\nTrump got no deal with Putin. Putin does not listen to trump. It is a bluff. Trump is as bad as Putin. He is only interested to exploid Ukraine. \nAmericans you have to fight your worst and \n# 1enemy = trump and his boot lickers = neo nazis. The longer you wait, the more american families, veterans, economy, jobs have to suffer. Trup has no respect for Great Britain. He only would have liked to get his hands on the late Queens juwels.

You have to respect and appreciate donald. Say thank you Justin

Trudeau gave the entire world a lesson to remember , what a President , wuaw, my respect and deepest admiration.

He's a true gentleman. Balanced and sensible. Hope Trump learns from him how to talk respectfully

respect canada

It's because up until now you've shown Trump you are a weak leader. He doesn't respect you.

Canada is a respected nation , and Well educated not like some ?

Respect. Unfortunately Putin's puppy is too drunk with power to understand.

Can't stand our Prime Minister, he's done too much damage to Canada and I will forever dislike him but BUT how he spoke here he has earned some respect! Wish he was like this from the get go

Love all the support, from a proud Canadian! To the American people, we still love and respect all of you! Even the ones who want to annex us and call us a 3rd world country even though it’s hard in these times

As a Canadian and not a fan of Trudeau I have to say he's earned respect as a leader.\nNot like the trumpy pile of ? south of us

Trump is burning the house down to test if that would warm the house faster. The man is a total imbecile living on a golden toilet with a phone that puts him in a bubble surrounded by psychopaths, cultists and wanna-be oligarchs beholden to a KGB agent specialised since the '70ties to manipulate gullible foreign business men. \n\nThere exist no scenario in which this will end well before the 4 years run out, he will destroy the western world though either is own greed&ego fuelled stupidity, his blinded with white power hate cultists or the wanna be oligarchs. STOP THIS NOW AMERICANS WHILE YOU STILL CAN AND WHILE YOU STILL HAVE A COUNTRY AND NEIGHBOURS THAT RESPECT YOU.

Castro calling president Trump Donald. Show some respect! Nice job you did with Covid, dictator. You sound vaccinated.

This is what a president looks and sounds like! Intelligent, direct, formidable, respectful - that is how power should be used.

7:48 Wow, Trudeau, even when he insults you, he does it with respect and class. Donald, watch and learn!

As a Canadian for 45 years, we all know others write his speeches and this like many of his speeches sounds overly scripted. In this respect, I actually prefer Trump who has less filters when he speaks. Trump is clearly trying to save America from further drowing in debt by increasing government revenue while minimizing expenses which is commendable although I don't approve of all his tactics.

?? respect

Robert De Niro’s statement on Donald is perfect. \n\n “I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly. I see an evil one. Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped. Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them. We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016. The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags. The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse. Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously. So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America: This is our last chance. Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator. And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided. So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls. We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them. Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect. Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity. Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world. Safety for our families. Decency. Let’s welcome them back. We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.””

I have lived in Canada for almost 50 years.. The United States of America has been our closest neighbour and friend ever since I came here.. \nLong before I came here Canada and the US were partners… \nWe relied on each other, we supported each other and we profited from each other..\nLet me make it perfectly clear I consider myself Canadian and I love the Americans like they were my own brothers and sisters.. \nAlso let it be known that our government does not speak for the citizens of this country… \nWe are being forced by the government to follow the rules. And now our government wants the American people to believe that all Canadians are against them. \nThat couldn’t be any further from the truth. \nI can’t say every single Canadian has respect for the Americans, but I myself respect America and honour Canada.. \nAs a true Canadian, we stand on guard for both countries.. God bless America…

I respect Trudeu I cannot respect a bullying Trump. Stand united and strong Canada ??????

Trudeau ended on a high note. Respect!

Justin Trudeau is standing his ground. I have nothing but respect for a man that stands his ground and not waiver when he know he has done everything he can to make peace with his neighbor,

I am annoyed with CNN for turning this into a WAFFLE Soapy...At Last Trudeau has grown BALLS and he was presenting a Polite, Rational, Understandable, Logical, Factual explanation NOT only to AMERICA BUT more so to Canada and the World that Trump is NOT actually a SMART man but rather a deranged and dangerous illiterate with NO interest other than HIS EGO...SO CNN in your wisdom you ignored Trudeau's replies to questions from the press and gave oxygen to your WAFFLE MONGERS LIGHT WEIGHT comments.\n I have never been a supporter of wishy washy Trudeau....until this polite and measured presentation by him which was brilliant as an Educational tool not only for the American People BUT also for ALL of those ALLIES in the FREE World that TRUMP has absolutely NO RESPECT for and has been singularly responsible for the FREE World ALLIES to seriously rethink their allegiances with Chaotic America due to Donald's apparently Love affair with Putin as a fellow Dictator.\n America listen up.... The U.K./Europe are cranking up their home based on their door step DEFENSE INDUSTRIES etc which will be GREAT for Europe.... BUT not so GREAT for America''s employment going SOUTH.\n I was born in 1936 in the U.K. and have first hand experience of the TORTURE Ukraine is experiencing as the RESULT of Putin INVADING Ukraine....Donald and his Attack dog Vance are dangerous illiterates.

I know a lot of people in the comment section have TDS so you look even more stupid praising this guy. You have no idea what this guy has done to Canada. His approval rating his lower than when Biden was President. He's a joke and this is just a smoke screen before the election where his party will be annihilated. Calling him Donald in a press conference was a beta move. Especially since he's on his way out in shame. At least the President gave a bit of respect and called him Governor hahaha.

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.

All Trump has been asking for all along is for Canada & Mexico to DO THEIR PART in stemming the illegal immigration and Fentanyl from crossing into the United States. Nearly 100,000 Americans die each year from Fentanyl overdoses. The raw ingredients come from China and into their respective nations, where they are processed and made into Fentanyl, then brought into the U.S. Neither nation has taken Trump seriously and Biden didn't give a crap and actually assisted with bringing in more of everything. Now both nations get to deal with the results of their inactions. Remember, these are reciprocatory tariffs to simply equal what American goods are charged by Canada & Mexico already. NOW everyone is on an equal playing field. If these nations want lower tariffs, they can go first and then the U.S. will match it to theirs... It's that simple.

This men is a true leader. \n????‍???? respect!

Too bad he's resigning. He spoke like a true leader. Respectful but firm. I've never been prouder to be a Canadian in my life and I have always been proud.

His only mistake was not to talk to his Canadian in the same way about the external diplomatic journey. Most Canadians voted him out because most Canadians have little to no idea how it is arround the globe, missing an overall perspective in their critic to Trudeau. Let me tell you that a lot of people changed their minds looking at his reaction to external threath posed by newly elect Trump. I allways knew Trump was bad news but never did I see a country turn it's administrative logistic into a pure representation of the cult Donald made into place. I hope my fellow friendly american get loud enought to be herd from their respective administrative leaders in your political system. Be critical, this is not what the USA is sopposed to be about.

all this has done is elevate justin trudeau to a world class leader thats deeply respected in the eyes of canadians ??

Maybe America just doesn’t wanna be screwed over on everything they are just trying to make things fair and get Canada to do their part and have some patriotism seems like it’s working. And perhaps a little respect and gratitude would be in order instead of BS moral high ground and socialism.

This is what responsible adults sound like. In other words, something Trump's followers can't understand, and don't respect.

Our left and right leaning politicians in both sides of parliament in Australia are currently trying to stay out of this situation thinking that the mango Mussolini will respect us. But our population knows Donald is a putin arse licker and as soon as he turns his attention to Australia and treats us like Canadian brothers you'll find the USA lose allies tenfold.....as even countries like us trying to find middle ground will finally realise that therr is no middle ground... you're an enemy period ....go Canada ????

I have found a whole new respect for Trudeau. A very respectable man.

Protect the Constitution, not a the politicians! Trump does not the respect the Constitution that our country was founded upon. Protect our freedoms people! No kings!

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau! I wish I could respect American leaders as much as I respect you! Stay strong Canada!

I lived near Canada and they always have been so nice and respectful there . They have shit trade deals that are ripping off the united states - grow a set of balls

Wow so you’re saying it’s possible to have a leader that can speak calmly, respectfully, and in complete sentence form?

Respect!

As a small business owner in Vermont I stand with Canada. Thank you for standing up to Trump so respectfully, eloquently and intelligently. Thank you for being an example.

From Belgium; Now this is a leader worth respecting. \nI hope Donald gets put in his place, whether he stops making enemies out of friends all around the world, instead of doubling down making this worse for everyone. \nOr gets stopped by the american people that stand up against him, united with allies their population worldwide, to hold higher morals then the absolute lack thereof asserted by the current Trump administration.

CNN - What kind of language does Donald Trump use when addressing elected representatives of the respected global community? He resorts to belittling, mocking, taunting, and even threatening individuals with alarming ease, seemingly without any sense of shame or restraint.\n\nPrime Minister Trudeau conducted himself as a gentleman, consistently speaking in a respectful and dignified manner. In contrast, Donald Trump often demonstrates a lack of morals, manners, etiquette, and ethical principles, which is truly shameful.

He's not appeasing putin. He's trying to stop people from dying. Respecting the agreement to not put nato in the Ukraine, is basically living up to your word. The borders go back to where they were at 2014. I believe that's a fair deal and will stop 2,200 people from dying every single day. You guys are praising this crap Zolenesky spews... while everybody in the Ukraine has lost their sons. And now they are grabbing old men off the street literally while walking their dog and making them soldiers.

I am not a fan of Justin Trudeau… but my goodness I am so proud of him right now. And I LOVE how he referred to Herr Trump as just plain old Donald — zero formality and respect. I am a firm believer in you get what you give. ❤️??

Canadians are recognized for their politeness and respect. They prioritize righteousness above all else. God bless PM Trudeau, God bless Canada!
