I'm American, thank you for standing uo to our POS Dictator

? Californian here. Thank you, PM Trudeau, for your leadership and for speaking with respect and clear intentions to rebut what you were forced into. Listening to you speak makes things feel a little less scary. To hear another world leader speak with such normality, is reassuring that democracy still exists. The last decade has been hell on Americans. Some of us have been standing up, speaking up and never giving up for a decade now. Wee are tired but we can't stop. Thank you for being a sane voice during this insane nightmare. And thank you for embracing President Zelenskyy. He needed that multileader summit embrace after what Trump did to him ?????

Thank you my Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for standing up to bully Donald Trump

As a US citizen who has considered Trump to be a boorish moron since I was a child in the 1980s, I thank Canada and PM Trudeau for standing strong against our idiot-in-chief and I hope we can repair this unnecessary rift as soon as possible.

Thank you Mr Prime Minister, we ALL stand together with you in this fight. ???

I would like to thank all the kind words from all over the world I see here. We as Canadians really appreciate it. It's going to be a tough time ahead for this country, but if no one else will stand up to Trump, we will.

well said Mr Trudeau, thank you for standing for Canadians

Thank you Mr. Trudeau I personally stand with progress.\n And Donald Trump is not progress.\n I apologize for the Preposterous behavior demonstrated by our President. To President zelinski. I also apologize for Trump. And I cannot wait until he is removed. We must do it legally and democratically. As far as our allies, Canada and Mexico.\nIt is my opinion donald trump is entering dementiand it's not fit for office

Apologies to our good neighbor Canada from one US citizen. Thank you for standing up to our corrupt, immoral, unstable president. Respect to our independent and admirable neighbor ❤??❤️??

Thank you, Canada Prime Minister. This is a sad day for all of us. \nBut someone has to stand up to Trump, who is a bully, racist, Bigot, Natzi.

Thank you, Justin for standing up to our orange beast

Thank You Mr. Trudeau, for standing up for Democracy and the standing up to the baffon Trump,

Mr Trudeau, thank you for your excellent clear and concise speech. You hit all the points. Thanks for standing up for Canada and the Free World. Please remember our Ukrainian friends...

American here. Family moved to Canada ?? after American Revolutionary War (yep family was a royalist). Stayed in Oh Canada for over 100 years. As an American ?? (country I love) - I stand with Canada ?? even though it will cost me & other lower / middle classes $$$$. Not Canada’s fault. It is the fault of the orange ? man who is a pretender POTUS. A man who kisses Putin’s ring. A man who protects billionaires & trillionaires… not the majority of U.S. Americans. He doesn’t care about the grossly misguided people who voted for him - they are finding out now! Stay Strong Canada ??! Thank you for standing up to this American Bully! So many of us are ashamed, disgusted, and so sorry! ❤??❤??

Prime Minister Trudeau, please don't lump the people of the US. with trump or maga, most of the people are against everything trump and maga do, and thank you for standing up to that pompous ass.

Thank you Canada for supporting Ukraine, you have always been on our side, always. We appreciate it and understand what it is like to be betrayed by the United States of America. Ukraine stands with you, Canadians! Canada, be strong! ?????

I am from Texas and I stand with Canada. thank you for not allow Trump to bully you. someone needs to stand up to him since his own party will not.

Thank you, Canada, and Mexico for standing up to a bully government ?? ? ??❤️

Sweden stand with Canada! Thank you so much for fighting for what is right! ???

Los Angeles here. Mad props to Trudeau and this speech. Such a shame the American people have to suffer. Can’t stand Trump and the current administration. Bunch of bullies. Thank you for this honest, well-said speech. Bravo to Trudeau and Canada!

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, for standing strong and for remaining calm and collected during your speech. We admire your integrity and knowledge!

America thanks Trudeau for standing up to a fascist and for democracy in general! Thank you! The majority of us want your help and are against this regime.

I'm in Montana and I stand with Canada! Thank you Mr. Trudeau and know that the vast majority of American's are on your side.

Heavenly Father,\n\nProtect President Trump, Elon Musk and his DOGE team as they root out corruption and theft in the United States. Two attributes of the enemy, and not of God. We seen your amazing protective power in Pennsylvania in November with only a graze of the ear. We don't see what the Heavenly Realm sees. So no doubt there were Angels standing all around the President that day. We thank you for that. Keep this momentum going so it will not tire when we have our election here in Canada ??. \n\nWe ask this through your Son, Jesus Christ.\n\nAmen & Amen ??✝️☝️

Coming from Northern California wine country in Calistoga California, I say I am with you Mr Trudeau thank you for standing up to trump who is very insane god speed

As a Canadian - thank you to Americans and those around the world who stand with us!\nThe world must stand arm to arm, united, against Trumps aggression.

You always been there , we always knew that you did and do your best . Thank you Mr Prime Minister. We must stand against bullying.

Bravo!?????? I am an American and I stand with Canada. Leaders from other countries around the world should be as strong as your leader Trudeau! This message could not be more clear or direct. And I’m glad Trudeau didn’t call him with president in front of his name. trump doesn’t deserve it. He is a disgrace to America and exactly what America is not about. No one knows how he could get here But it’s a nightmare that we are trying to wake up from. Trump has spread cancer in America and we are fighting for our lives. We are deeply sorry for all the pain we are causing people around the world. This is our fight and we unfortunately are making it everyone’s problem. We need help, so thank you for everything you are doing.

This is inspiring given the UK prime minister bowing down to the US. My country is embarrassing- thank you for standing up to this.

I stand with Canada . What the orange ghoul and muskrat are doing to this country is unforgivable. As a cadaian born , but have to live here because of Air Force father wa WWII . We are retired now and husband is a veteran, it’s already hard for us, now it will get worse.. God Canada must think they are living above a meth lab thanks to that thing in the White House. ??

Thanks Trudeau for standing up for Canada!

As an American, i stand by Canada ?? and Ukraine ?? thank you so much Canada for standing up against our dictator.

Thank you Justin Trudeau, we the people need Canada to stand up to felon Trump

Thank you Canada for standing up to the idiocy of trump.\nThere is mounting and clear evidence that trump and his enablers stole our election through suppression of legitimate American voter’s votes…. And manipulation of voter machines…\nThe evidence is overwhelming…Trump is a #PutinPuppet and he is Putin’s useful idiot.\nThe majority of us Americans love our Canadian friends and neighbors.\n??❤️?❤️??

Yes, the number two in the Oval Office is Pence, and his words often come across as cheap, bullying tactics. Instead of offering real leadership or thoughtful discussion, he uses language that tries to intimidate and put others down. His approach often feels like he's trying to hold onto power by scaring people, rather than standing on solid ground with strong ideas. This kind of talk may work for some, but it only creates more division and gets in the way of real progress.\nThe biggest mistake was introducing tariffs without any backup plans in place. The bottom 60% of U.S. citizens will likely struggle to make ends meet in less than two years, stuck behind the barriers of these tariffs. The idea that South American countries might step in to help the U.S. seems unrealistic. More likely, the U.S. will find itself isolated, facing political instability—and to put it bluntly, a loss of trust—thanks to an overinflated ego and a sense of entitlement.\nCould the U.S. turn to African countries for their natural resources? It’s possible, but this effort probably won’t be successful. Most African nations, except for those in the Sahel region, are just beginning to recover from the effects of colonialism. Many are now building their own paths and are more likely to align with China’s influence rather than the U.S. Even if the U.S. tries to get resources from Africa, it will likely face challenges from both local resistance and growing competition from China.

We love you, Mr. Prime Minister ♥️ Trump is an EVIL, AWFUL person! Thank you for standing AGAINST him!!

As an American I am grateful to Canada and I will continue to buy Canadian products. The “leaders” of America are shameful bullies. So far, nearly every attempt that has been made to stop this madness ultimately gets turned over by someone in Trump’s pocket. Thank you for standing up to the bullies. I wish the best for you!

?Thanks our PM Justin Trudeau ?? One of the greatest leaders in the world? Let's stand for Canada and EU together and stronger than ever! ?? ?? ?????♥️?

I am a US citizen and I stand with Canada and Ukraine. It is so validating to listen to someone who speaks the truth, a privilege we don't have in the USA. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau.

Our Prime Minister. Not Governor. Prime Minister. We stand on guard for thee. ???. Thank you everyone for all your support! It means the world to us!

As an American I definitely understand why Canada is doing this. Our current government here sucks. Counting down till the day trump is out of office. Thank you for standing up for yourself and your people. Guarantee that is pissing trump off

From Canada, I would like to thank my Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for standing up for Canada and the world.

putin & donnie plan to coordinate a takeover starting with the US (which donnie has already initiated). Thank you PM Trudeau - you and others please keep standing up to him because our own representatives are cowards who choose power, prestige, privilege and profits over their constituents. donnie has already bowed down to putin. donnie has missed the fact that fentanyl is smuggled in via container ships from china along with mailed packages and trucks from Mexico. Agents can inspect at the borders until the cows come home but smugglers will always come up with new ways to hide contraband. Oh yeah, donnie is NOT a “very smart guy”. The WSJ is wrong on that point. Don’t feed his ego.\nStay strong Canada ❤

Thank you Canada for your strong stance! Great Prime Minister, Canadians can be proud. Please stand by Europes, we need your partnership.

Thank you Prime Minister for standing strong. I wish the leaders down here in the USA cared as much about their people as you do about yours. I did not vote for this MAGA hell.

Thank you, Canada❤ I am glad there are still strong leaders who stand against tyranny
