Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, the sane Americans still love you and your great country. This government is not who or what I voted for. I am so sorry, friends. I think MOST of us do not want this either. Our government is a failure and we need to change it. We, the people. The REAL people. Not the fake numbers you hear about from this corrupt administration that lies like it's their religion to do so. Keep doing the right thing for your people, and know you have our respect. Also, please have mercy when many of us seek to move to a more civilized nation.

Trump and his stooges not real Americans!

Turn off the power. He will learn real fast that . Trump is the problem

You have to talk to Americans like children... Be articulate, don't use big words.... They're not real bright.

Why is this dude still representing Canada? \n\nTwo months ago many of his key cabinets members resigned because Justin’s policies are destroying Canadians. Rightfully, he resigned. Dude needs to go away. Stop making Canada worse than what it has become under his horrendous leadership.\n\nThings happening:\n\nThe massive influx of foreigners, both legally and illegally into Canada.\n\nAffordable housing for native Canadians do not exist, people are leaving the country.\n\nHi mortgage payment or monthly rent are too high.\n\nFood prices are not coming down.\n\nSalaries are not keeping up with inflation.\n\nThe Canadian dollar keeps tanking.\n\nAs the leader of the country, he’s doing nothing to stop increasing violent crime.\n\nIncreasing amount of drugs in cities and suburbs.\n\nFinally, he’s pledging billions of dollars to Ukraine, when that money is needed at home.\n\nJustin is too emotional to deal with Trump.\n\nTrump complains about the trading balance between the two nations, $100 billion in favor of Canada.\n\nThe request is simple, import more American products, or export less products to America. But the imbalance has to stop.\n\nSame with Mexico, trading balance with Mexico is almost $200 billion in favor of Mexico. The imbalance has to stop. \n\nThe US economy is bleeding by trading with allies and partners, it’s fighting for its financial wellbeing. It is not some bs from the orange man, it is real.\n\nOf course Canada, Mexico, Europe and others want business as usual… and why wouldn’t they? ?

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??

I wish he would say the Trump administration instead of America. Because none of this is the real America. Edit: I do support Canada in their response.

Respect ?❤️Real wise Leader against false megalomaniac puppet of psychopath -wladmir

This guy doesn't know anything about being a man. He's a politician and a talker. He doesn't know how to wield power or how to be respected... He's a weak man that's just like all the other people that are being pumped out of college a whole bunch of confident idiots that don't have any real grasp on what the world is.

What a nauseating twit. Hey Justin...tariffs on American goods are a tax on Canadians! I forgot-- you love taxes, because you're a socialist. You were right when you told Trump Canada can't survive this--because Canada isn't a real country.

Piss of thrudshit! We The People Hold The Real Trump Card! So go FQuCKYouSelF!

Wow, a leader that has compassion and a real plan to deal with crisis! Why isn't he golfing? Why isn't he handing it off to a billionaire that paid for his campaign?

You go Trudeau!!! Finally some real truth to the people in this country

I'm just going to clarify something remember when they said Trump had allies with Russia now you see what the Democrats were talking about. Trump always blames democrats for his faults. Trump had you guys convinced not to vote for Democrat. Now are allies don't even want to deal with the US anymore which is understandable because of what the whole nation seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears. Trump says he wants to make America Great American dream not for Americans maybe for you Republicans I guarantee a lot of Republicans don't agree with him but they all are scared to say anything to Trump and his team which that is disturbing within itself. Trump needs to be impeached he's causing to much chaos and still getting away with people's lives in real life situations this is not a joke. As for JD Vance his vice president he was laughing and asking Zelenskyy why was he not wear a suit what about Elon musk he wasn't wearing a suit? And when you ask another person to come from another country to the White House they are dressed in their traditional clothing to be mocked by these men is despicable. Real people lost their jobs, real people are dying that need aid,for them to shut down the military aid was a slap in the face,mind you they sit back and laugh about it.. Russia is the last person Trump should be nice Putin is not on the US side it's obvious but Trump laughs with him, communicate better with Putin which is disturbing as well. Having the power and money makes people so entwined into their own world,Trump should think about Americans first and not act like a disrespectful person he ruined his chance not Zelenskyy. Now We the people are looking at our President and vice President like the are unhinged, disrespectful, uncompassionate, and down right rude. Kamala,Tim warned everyone Barak, Michelle, Biden did also y'all should have listened. I voted for Kamala and Tim. If Trump wants peace he needs to stop with all the madness and focus fixing the US.

You are looking at the real fascist dictator. Suddenly this moron who said Canada has no National Identity is now suddenly a patriotic Canadian. Don't fall for for his BS. He is evil with a haircut and suit.

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.

This is how a real statesman acts, behaves and speaks ...

This is a down right disgrace. I don't know why anyone vote for that man because he is doing more harm than good. A dozen of eggs are $9.00, that's more than a gallon of milk. That man is trying to destroy our country. God Almighty is going to step in real soon. God bless this country and he is trying to mess it up.

Can we Americans make you our real President somehow? The 25th might be of help right now-

First time in my whole life that I'm proud of Trudeau... Again I've always hated is way of governing...This is the speech of a real leader...\n\nPlease realize that Poilievre is a JDVance with the view of the orange orangutan... Be careful cause they have the SAME agenda! (Abortion and women's rights, etc...)

Great speech from a real leader ? Wishing Canada well ?? from your real allies in the UK ??

A real Indigenous American here we really dont care, make canada the 51st, get out of the wars. Gov. Trudeau is a liar, 2 way tariffs make it equal duh with your square head ass, big ass nose. He is using witchcraft with his words, he sounds like he is reading a bedtime story to put you all back to sleep.

Not here to watch or give trudeaoaia any of my real time. Just amazed people still do

Real president

Boycott the USA ! Putin is the real president of this greedy country !. Trump's brain doesn't braining.

Dual citizen in Canada I could not be more ashamed at the US tantrum showing man Vs The real adult Trudeau in the room. \nWe thank you for your address today and telling Donny we are not standing on the playground and taking the mean actions anymore.

Trump should take notes this is a real leader take notes from this and zelensky hell all of nato the eu because t dump ur a pos

A real leader. State the facts and let people know what the truth is. Stand tall against the USA. ?? Can't believe we are doing this to our closest ally. Smh.

Trudeau is on his last days as Prime Minister for a reason, but this at least sounds like a real leader. Donald, take note.

Canada has a real leader with backbone! Trump is a meat puppet ?

We have a russian agent in the office. I think it's time we pretend to be real Americans, and take our country back! ???

I mean he’s certainly well spoken Im sure we all can agree but factual….not so much. People do your research on Chinese Triad gang members buying up real estate in Vancouver to launder money from drug sales. There is no doubt a growing problem in Canada that is impacting the US. By the numbers Canada illegal border crossings and Fentanyl crossing volume might pale in comparison to Mexico but it’s important to note that it’s still a rising problem they’ve yet to fully understand. Look at how much of the Northern US border is unguarded compared to the southern border. This tariff war between the US and Canada is no doubt a problem but Canada is absolutely a part of the reason it exists. In the end please remember there’s always two sides to every story and mainstream media is anything but objective when it comes to how they cover them.

I voted against trump three times. I can’t believe the total abdication of the Republican Congress, the total corruption of the courts, and the total brainwashing of the conservative voters who have fallen into the trump cult. Real Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine. And we understand that trump is the biggest threat to American liberty since King George III.

A REAL President speaking

I dont know how Canada kept this guy in office so long. Real snake oil salesman. Trudea does not give a crap about Americans, he doesnt even care about Canadians, hes made that clear during his time as PM.

Why are some commentators still talking about fentanyl & immigration as if it has anything to do with whats going on. a psychotic, narcissistic loon who hasn't the faintest clue about government, whose ambition is self enrichment and whose instincts are sel aggrandizement has been elected to the leadership of a country where his unique combination of idiocy, incompetence, insanity, deranged maliciousness and need to exact vengeance on those he feels failed to defer to him sufficiently (or just randomly, to assert himself) can do the most damage. Sure Trump is a fascist, but he's much, much worse: He is totally insane. What do the congressional Republicans tell their children, families and friends about why they're bowing to a clear and dangerous psychooath utterly devoid of human decency ? How do they explain their snivelling deference to a once in a millennia loonatic of these proportions. He's not only, obviously and blatantly imposing hardship on the most vulnerable Americans for personal gain, he is destroying US influence and respect globally. The rest of the world now see the US as a real and present danger. A pscho killer nation from whose derangement no one is safe. How long will this be tolerated; and how long before it occurs to Trump to drop a nuclear bomb on someone just to boost his ego? We aren't dealing with a rational mind, and RRepublicans need to be told that their 'king' went from a corporate tool to Caligula quicker than a Ferrari.

Spoken like a real, true leader.

I could not be prouder of my Canadian ancestors and more ashamed of America now. This is not how you treat your friends and neighbors we will get what we deserve some not me elected a fool and Putin's puppet. We will all suffer for this and It is idiotic but the rich will not feel the pain so it might be time to move to Canada or Mexico where the have real leaders not puppets.

Prime Minister? Not even the real boss. Fidel Castro's bastard son.

Thank you for keeping it real. Russia president was more like you because we have an idiot for president right now. He wasn’t good before and he’s not good now America’s gone to shit.

Hit us with equal tariffs. Drown Trump out of office. We hate him. The real American patriots stand with you, Canada.

America, how's it feel to see a real leader in action?

Now that is how a real president speaks .

There’s no fucking way this is real life..

Melanie Joly is dressed in full military uniform as if ready for a real war!

Now that’s how a true leader, a real politician, talks and acts. If that wacko of a despot in the White House carries on, Putin will soon be his only ally … But problem is, dictators don’t really do the ally thing for real.

He called him “Donald” twice he real hates him lol !!!!

This is what a REAL world leader sounds like. I don't wish I was Canadian, I just wish we had a leader that wasn't a complete immature, imbecile.

Everyday he sits in office he just keeps embarrassing the united states of America with this maddness never in history have our Beloved united states seen this Maddness it's just sad real sad the Downfall of the United states with this Maddness in the white house sad real sad ?

This IS a real leader for a country ❤
