I'm so embarrassed to be American. I'm angry at the millions who were dumb enough to vote even one time for a FOOLISH con man who's compromised by Russia and can't even read. I'm extremely proud of Canada and Trudeau. I hope somehow the president of the US and his echo chamber are removed from office. We'll never make it 4 years.

I’m Canadian. I’ve not been a fan of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the past, but he is the man for the moment and I’m so proud of him right now! Articulate, thoughtful, calm and firm. Exactly what a true leader should be. To my American neighbours: this is what leadership looks like. Bringing the country together,not tearing it apart??

Proud of you, our Trudeau!! Thankyou!!

Buy produced and made in canada and we will survive this together, we are strong and proud of our country, no one can destroy us unless we give them power over us. Thank you Mr prime Minister Trudeau, together we will survive this.

From the USA; I want to apologize to Canada. You should be proud to have such a strong leader such as Trudeau.

Prime Minister Trudeau, you made Canadians proud!!

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau. Notice no name calling, no disrespect, no Drama. This is how you behave as an intelligent person. We are proud to be Canadians.??????????????????

I am so proud of Mr. TRUDEAU, I am an American and retired veteran and so sick of our Administration doing this to Canada and Mexico. I served with some great Canadians from NATO BACK IN 1998-2000. IT’s so sad to see this happening today.

I am very proud of our PM Justin Trudeau ❤ CANADA

Thank you Mr. Trudeau. We are trying to get rid of this maggot on America’s society. I am proud to say my neighbor flies a Canadian with the American ??.

Canadians must be proud to have Trudeau, a guy with immense big balls. Not small fish caviar like in Donald Trump's sack.\nGreetings from Austria and respect for not let your country get bullied from the disgusting Trump buffoon.\nTrudeau is a hero!

Under normal circumstances I would be the last person to support our Liberal party; especially Trudeau. His past record speaks for itself. However, his talk today to the American people and Trump actually made me feel proud to be a Canadian. It was the harshest language I have heard him use towards Trump especially after enduring weeks of degrading talk from Trump in relation to calling Trudeau a governor. I hope that the Liberals follow through with protecting Canadians.

As an American i am proud of Justin Trudeau. He is doing for Canada what needs to be done. Donald Trump is trying to break everyday Americans down to become government slaves.

American-Canadian here. This was an amazing speech from Trudeau. Makes me proud to call myself a new Canadian

Proud to be a Canadian! Well said Prime Minister Trudeau.

I'm European, but I lived in Canada for a couple of months and actually got to see Trudeau speak live in Parliament. He gave a very different speech that day - a eulogy. I did not think then I would ever hear this man this very obviously pissed off. He's like one of those teachers that don't need to shout to show their students they are in big trouble. I don't know if I would vote for him if I was Canadian, but I would certainly be proud of him right now.

I wanted Trudeau out of office for the past few years. But damn, just before he actually leaves office he makes the whole country proud. I don't want him to go now

Pierre Elliott Trudeau would have been proud.

As a Canadian, I am proud to see our Prime Minister answering directly to Trump. Mr. Trudeau spoke like a great leader of our country, we are with him and with every Canadian against an unpredictable predator. I'll support our governments in any actions that will be taken to answer to this attack.

?? proud ??\nWords I didn't recently think I'd ever use: well done, Mr. Trudeau! WELL DONE!

I hate saying I am a American BUT I am so very proud of Trudeau and I think once Canada turns off it's power to America and turns off the gas line Canada can have frump by the balls which needs to be done and ASAP .. GOD BLESS CANADA

well said Trudeau. I am a proud Canadian and support my country. Because of this I have started and will continue to buy only Canadian products. Trump is a loser and going to cost the USA a lot of money. I will not travel to the US and that means I won’t even be able to see one of my brothers who lives there, but I support my country and will do what is necessary.

Man the states really lost their way. What a mess. Proud to be Canadian and super grateful for Trudeau in a time like this. His father would be proud.

Mr. Trudeau, you made my day to feel being a proud Canadian!

As a Canadian, today I am so proud of PM Trudeau ???

Good for you, Mr. Trudeau. You do your country proud! ??❤️’s??

As a proud US citizen who loves her country, I am disgusted over so many actions of Trump/Vance/Musk that display a lack of care for the American people and a disdain and arrogance for other nations such as ?? Canada. Trudeau you speak with character, clarity, class and thoughtfulness - ?. If only our own leadership had an ounce of any of those characteristics of true leadership such as Canada has displayed…

Bravo Mr Trudeau ! Speaking the truth is essential, you have provided ! I’m American and I’m not proud of our new politics

Well done, PM Trudeau. You made us proud as Canadians. You said it like it is. Donald, and I noticed you refrained from calling him President Trump because he is certainly not acting like a president, Donald is siding with our enemies, snuggling up to a malicious dictator rather than taking a stand for right and for the common good. He has absolutely no reason to impose tariffs and is actually breaking legal agreements to do so, but we all know that Trump believes he is above the law. If you like this speech, go and listen to Premier Ford of Ontario as he threatens to tariff all the energy which flows into the States or even just cut it off. Nobody wins in this war, certainly not Americans. But Elon and Donald don't care. They are filthy rich and will just plan chaos and world domination in their sandbox while everyone else in the USA takes the hit.

Gotta disagree w/ Mr. Trudeau on one point, when he says Trump is 'very smart'--NO. Otherwise, Trudeau's speech was spot-on, and I love and respect Canada even more now. Most of us Americans cannot be proud of our country; we are held captive by a wannabe dictator and his stooges who are self-serving, vindictive, and UNpatriotic! To gather some semblance of sanity, I am taking the family on a Canadian Rockies tour in late spring--am tempted to not return home again.

As a proud American Veterran-I stand with Trudeau and Canada!

Proud & Respected Canada Leader with a class...Salute to Mr Trudeau

As an American citizen, we don’t want this either. But YOU have chosen this path with how you chose to deal with The U.S. this is on you Trudeau for the way you treated us all 4 years of Biden’s presidency. We are proud of our president taking a stand to jerks like you.

???????? Great Trudeau!!! You make all Canadiens proud. What a speech!

Anyone listening to Trump's psychoblabla after watching this will realise how dumb Trump is.\n\nAs a Canadian, Im very proud of PM Trudeau today.

Who convinced Trump of this? I like him but this trade war against Canada isn’t the way to go, really. I feel Canadians were mistakenly targeted. US needs allies not foes. Proud of Trudeau for the first time. I don’t live in the US but in Canada at the moment, not Canadian either, but I’m very objective in my perception about these occurrences. I hope America makes peace with Canada so strengthen both sides, hmmm.

So proud of Justin Trudeau’s response. You speak for all Canadians.

I am so damn proud right now of my Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, he is responding in the perfect move. I love the fact that he is calling out that cretin!

As an American, I am not proud of what is happening either. In fact, it's downright disgusting. You must do what you must do, Prime Minister Trudeau. I won't blame you at all.

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau. I am proud of you. Well said. We stand together with you for Canada.

Proud to be Canadian, Trudeau was so good, hope Americans are listening

Thank you Mr Trudeau for standing up to Trump. We are all proud of you.

Thank you Mr Trudeau. You make me so proud to be a Canadian

very sensible and nice leader. Canadian should be proud having Trudeau

I just realized that the USA has become like Russia in yet another way: We cannot trust our president's words.\nAlso: That woman behind Trudeau looks genuinely proud.

I agree 99,9% with everything Prime Minister Trudeau said. We all know what is that 0,1% I don't agree with... And that's of course that Justin said that Trump is smart... We all know he's dumb as a post, ignorant and proud of it.. The West (which of course includes South Korea, Japan, Australia, etc) has rejected MAGA and Trump.. He America, call u s back when the Orange Buffoon not around anymore.

I am proud to be a Canadian with Trudeau at the helm at this difficult time.

So proud to be Canadian well spoken Mr Trudeau

This was a absolute gem of a speech by Trudeau. As a Brit I am proud to be friends and ally with Canada. Even if we have to go against America, we will do together.

This is totally on Trump. Canada did not choose this. I’m proud of the way Prime Minister Trudeau is handling this.\n\nTrump is not such a smart man. Smart men don’t attack friends and allies.
