Trump gone ruin United States, they will be alone, and unfortunately china will take US place in internacional institutions.

Unfortunately the people who voted the orange clown in should be only one's suffering but we who did not vote for this S--------t show will suffer along with our wonderful allies. Shameful. Shameful and Mr. Trudeau I stand with Ukraine and Canada and I am ashamed of my country that they voted in this horrible person.

Trump is a bully and thinks like a child without thinking of the consequences. He’s been getting his way for years and running around bullying others. I really hope Canada Mexico whoever trump wants to bully stand on business and does the same. Unfortunately we Americans will be caught in the crossfire but it has to be done.

I am unfortunately American and I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine!! I voted for her!

Thank you Mr. Trudeau!!!! Our new President is an absolute IDIOT along with his Vice President. Unfortunately, he's really not that smart. Hang in there and it will be over in 4 years.

Canada must — simply must — join the European Union and, together with EU countries, create a defensive alliance. Every EU country should have the technology and capability to develop nuclear weapons, as well as nuclear weapons themselves. This would be the beginning of a new world. Unfortunately, America will drown in its own debt, but most Americans have chosen this path themselves, and they regret nothing!

All of this is so unfortunate. God Help us all. Stand for Canada and Peace.

50.2% of US voters chose Kamala Harris. Unfortunately the delegates went to the orange clown. As an Amercan citizen I'm ashamed and disgusted. We can only hope that moderate Republicans will man up and work with Democrats to stop this insanity.

I am so happy and proud to be a Canadian when I see our leaders behave like grown ups. America unfortunately has an orange face whackadoo behaving so immaturely. After he treated the UKRAINE PRESIDENT so badly. As president he should have a bit more decorum than what he displayed. He is the laughing stock before the whole world. IMPEACH!!!!!!!!

47 is transactional. On every front. We see what appears irrational, nonsensical, maybe even dumb. The question is, what deal has he already made for which he will be rewarded? The consequences 47’s actions spell the tearing down the status quo and the power of democracies around the globe. These things seem to be 47’s goal, not just some unfortunate consequence.

On display for the world to see a proud articulate Canadian vs a Dumb Ass Pathological Psycho, who is not smart! Unfortunately the US is stuck with the Psycho!! Thank you Canada for showing how it should be done!! An embarrassed American.........

I'm from France and I stand with Canada ❤ America has always been our biggest allies, but unfortunately it looks like Trump is a disguised agent for Russia's interests

Unfortunately Trudeau has decided to step down. Had he shown our people this side of him years ago I’m sure he’d be seen in a different light and would never have made the decision to step down as PM. Great work PM Trudeau ??

Unfortunately, a populist is hard to reason with. The fiercely ignorant and shamefully selfish have the reins of power in the USA. The tail is wagging the dog.

Really a very good and clear speech. But unfortunately I don't think MAGAs will be able to follow it.

Unfortunately, intelligent words don’t work with MAGA mindset. Standing together is good but doing it in a virtual world makes no difference to a real war in Ukraine where people continue to die as the orange face in a suit without a man inside it destroys the world around him.,

I’m a Canadian and no fan of Prime Minister Trudeau. It’s unfortunate the best speech he ever gave was after he resigned as Prime Minister. What he has said in this speech is absolutely true, despite the fact, I think Trump is doing some good things for the USA. This Terrif war with your neighbour is stupid. Unfortunately for us in Canada our Prime Minister has not given us the tools and freedom to grow economically and prosper the way we should have. Canadians should be living like Kings, but unfortunately are living paycheque to paycheque because of the stranglehold that our Prime Minister has put on businesses and its citizens. Now Canada has very little leverage, I believe to fight this Terrif war. Canada has become a pure Cradic nightmare, like the previous administration in the United States were overtaxed over regulated and spend money like drunken sailors on stupid things that don’t help us grow and prosper.

from the uk..keep strong my friends..its going to be tough but you do have a government willing to help . unfortunately Americans dont the average citizen will be hit hardest my thoughts are with you all...its going to be the longest 4 years ...........will take decades to fix the damage and trust is blown

Blaming the USA for what, exactly? It’s unfortunate that Canadian consumers are affected by trade restrictions, such as when Canada bans U.S. wines and liquors. Why ban it in the first place? Interestingly, even within Canada, Eastern provinces don’t have access to wines from British Columbia, what a shame. Shouldn’t we be working towards more open trade within our own country as well?

What Trump is doing is just absolutely crazy but the American people voted for him so unfortunately everyone will have to live with the stupidity that is the new America.

I am American and so many of us love Canada and Trudeau! Unfortunately people are realizing they made a big mistake voting for Trump! This nation is in so much trouble and for the first time in my life I am afraid of what’s ahead for us.

I am from Belgium and I fully support Canada. May Ursula von der Leyen and our European leaders speak with the same firmness and clarity when the same taxes are implemented on our products! But I am unfortunately skeptical about this.

Imagine once being the country that so many allies and neighbors sought refuge in—only to become this. Damn. I wish we had a leader who could articulate himself this well or actually cared about humanity. Those of you who voted for this will soon see and feel the consequences of your actions. The truth is, Trump isn’t smart— and unfortunately, neither are most Americans.

You can't argue with what he has just said. Unfortunately the tariffs have backfire. I hope they come to a reasonable resolution.

As an American, I will stand with Canada, Ukraine, and NATO. Our true allies and friends. Trump is, unfortunately, a Russia useful idiot.

It’s been trump’s goal all along to be just like putin. Unfortunately that’s exactly what he’s successfully doing right now.

One thing Trudeau is good at is talking. Eloquent words and well said, unfortunately words will not put food on my table. However, again, that was a very very nice speech.

Love Trudeau's transparency and integrity...unfortunately, the US does not have a leader like this...

Unfortunately Trump and Musk are forming an oligarchy and\ncouldn’t care less about American citizens. Just hope our allies can move in to help us when we get rid of this admin.

Unfortunately many people here voted for the Clown and they (and by osmosis) Canada got THE WHOLE DAMN CIRCUS....these voters have to be proud now.

If anyone is wondering about the reason of Trump's tariffs: Tariff is source of revenue for the government which is not based on salary. The rich and the poor of the USA will pay the same amount of it for a specific product. This revenue will then serve the US government to decrease the income tax, which is based on percent of revenue (i.e higher income people pay much more taxes). The tax cuts means those with higher revenue will get to keep more of it. So at the end of the day more of the governments revenue will come from those with lower revenue. Thus unfortunately widening the gap between the rich and the poor.

We know Canada, we know world. There are just millions of stupid people in the US and I don't see that changing, unfortunately.

We're with you Canada. We don't want this, either. Because you are a gentleman, like all presidents should be, you can't call him what he really is, a bully, spoiled brat, and incompetent Douch bag. Unfortunately we don't have a gentleman in the White House.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau. I'm angry and disgusted by my country's government, whom I did not vote for. Unfortunately, you are correct that the trade war and POTUS allying himself with Putin will harm lots of Americans -- and Ukrainians and many other people worldwide.

Canada has to start accepting refugees from the US? \n\nI know we have to focus on all the immediate stuff, but even though we knew they had an endgame, we didn’t think they would speed run at this quickly. \n\nElon must have that extra special Adderall.\n\nI don’t want to live on this planet anymore! Apparently Mars is also too close. Bedroom suburb and all.\n\nI know it’s extremely stupid that he got reelected, but it’s not like he had a landslide margin when it came to votes. Unfortunately, none of us were allowed to kick the voting machines if we were voting democrat.

It’s really unfortunate for us to have Trump as a president

Unfortunately for you Trudeau, you’re talking to a crazy, stupid and bully person ?

Unfortunately Trump befriends bullies and alienates friends and neighbors. In 2026 we will have midterm elections. That will be the time to make a necessary change and I trust Americans will vote.

Unfortunately they won't show this truth on Hillbilly News/Fox.

Unfortunately, Americans voted for an ignorant, stupid, Putin loving idiot who may put us all in harms way. Thanks

Mr Trudeau you are a great leader and unfortunately our country is totally F@$%@D because of one me who is a total Idiot and is destroying the country and I agree with you ?% that Putin is a lying corrupt thug Dictator who needs to be Stopped at all cost and I also believe he has to have sumthing hanging over Trump's head i honestly can't believe he is thst stupid anyways i hope you have woken up the American people and our senate and congress they need to impeach Trump ASAP and have his side kick JD Vance resign before they cuase even more damage you are a true gentleman who Mr Trump should learn a thing or 2 from God bless our Country ?

I am Canadian, and I want to speak to the USA, as a concerned citizen who valued the relationship that we once had between our two countries: please realize that we do NOT want to declare this as any form of “attack”, that these are solely defensive measures against your current administration’s lack of respect towards us as a people and as a country. \n\nPlease rest assured that we KNOW that not all of you voted for Trump, that there are those of you who realize what your current president is truly doing and do not support it. This is NOT about fentanyl. This NOT about money and how much each country was giving whom. We had a respectable trade deal that we were following, previously signed by Trump. We have always had a positive relationship together, business-wise and friendship-wise. Please also realize that, once your administration is no longer in control of our narratives in such a destructive manner, or it gets replaced by one that reverses this destructive policy, we will definitely reconsider our former relationship and we will work towards rebuilding it. \n\nIt is unfortunate for both sides here. We are aware of that. But “Canada Strong” is our way to remain forever a sovereign and free nation. Nothing more, nothing less. Always remember that.

I think Canada is the best partner you can have. Unfortunately, I fear that Trump has no interest in good relations with civilized partners, whether in America, Europe or worldwide. I can well imagine that he is pursuing completely different goals - Moscow is probably just a foretaste ... . Stay strong!

Unfortunately, Canadian is dealing with a Russian puppet.

Unfortunately, Fox won't be correctly informing their uneducated viewers so American wont get it. Again.

We don't want this either, but a few dense people voted this foolish wannabe dictator as president so unfortunately we all have to suffer for their stupidity. Trust if I had the financial funds, I'd pack my bags and move to good ol' Canada.

America we Canadians are upset with Trump and his criminal group running your country into the ground. We only have did our best for decades to be a rock for you…We don’t want this unfortunate situation but we will not bend the knee to Trump! If you really have that patriotism you have pounded your chests for decades as the best democracy in the world then show it! Right now we see a lot of talk and no action towards a criminal dictator Russian sympathizer

Great Job Canada!! Unfortunately, he is too stubborn to listen.

Unfortunately about half of the American people are not much better than drooling idiots; if that were not the case we would not be here now.

I share in Canada’s pain too!! We all need to buckle up and do this together, unfortunately because Rump wants to be a king that nobody wants. Disgusting ? man.
