Donald is not a smart guy, (you’re being diplomatic, )he’s dumb and dumber for doing this and it will show very soon the consequences of his actions. Trouble is, he doesn’t do anything if he’s wrong he just doubles down, he doesn’t take any responsibility even if he’s the one that causes it. Good on you, Mr. Trudeau, Americans, love Canada and Canadians, but Donald is not who the United States is about. He’s a traitor and of course a felon, Conman, hrapist. He is the one that we shouldn’t let in our country, especially to the presidency of the United States.

Hey Trump, this is what a real leader looks like. As an American I'm so ashamed of our government. We love you Canada.

Embarrassing to be American and Russian these days ... love to Canada from Europe

Dear Canada and Mexico,Ukraine,China, and everybody else he shits on-\nDonnie Dump does not speak for most Americans, We love and respect people-

Well done to Prime Minister Trudeau and the Canadian people for standing up to donOLD. Find other markets for your goods. There are other countries who would love to replace the American products on your shelves

I am a Canadian and I love America and the American people. I hope we can put this behind us sooner rather than later there is no need for any tension between us. We always have each other‘s back. With that said, I would like to see Canada step up to certain obligations, including with NATO, but as far as a trade work goes, this is not good.

Canada, Germany is proud of you❤ \nand I´m proud of the amazing comments from the lovely Americans, who see the truth of the face of Trump. He is the wolf in sheeps cloth

As a Washington State resident, I have always and continue to love and respect our Canadian neighbors. This US fake president is a liar and shameful embarrassment to Americans. Mr. Trudeau is pulling his country together as trump is tearing our country apart.

A large portion of Americans do NOT agree with Trump and we love our brothers to the North. Russia owns Trump because he has been a Russian spy for 35 years and Russia has all of the proof and they will use it against him if he doesn't make good this time around.

As a American I find the actions of Vladimir Trump absolutely disgusting! I didn't vote for that scumbag! I live right across the st Lawrence river from Canada and I love that country as well!!!

Thank you for your caring and concern. Canada is appreciated and loved by more Americans than you can imagine.

I am so overwhelmed by the fact that I am powerless against my own governments idiotic actions that completely destabilize the world. Please understand that over half of Americans are just as shocked as Canadians, and we love you as our neighbors. We let a ruthless dictator brainwash our vulnerable and uneducated and exploit every crack in our system to get here. I’m very scared for what’s to come and it sucks so badly that we all have to pay for an egrogious act of an elderly nepo baby that doesn’t understand how government and the world works.

OK for you to sell your shit here but yet you don’t allow us to sell our stuff there piss on you. That’s my opinion. I love Canadians but it has to stop and it’s going to. He is not aligning his self with Russia that is a lie watch what you say\nAnd furthermore, you can speak to the American people all you want. We follow our president and don’t threaten us. You’re on your way out the door anyway we will not forget what you did to the truck driver you’re a political pig.\nyou need are 9:02 money we don’t need yours

I'm from Portugal and I stand with Canada! ?\nI also send love and gentle hugs to every American that voted for human rights and empathy ?

I served alongside Canadian military when I served in the US military. They were very tough, honorable, and outstanding professionals. I have friends and family from Canada, and they love America. This trade war is so sad and so devastating for so many Americans and Canadians. These tariffs are so stupid, it's beyond reason. Trump is treating America's best friends and allies like enemies! This is not only dishonorable behavior by a US president, it is despicable!

OK for you to sell your shit here but yet you don’t allow us to sell our stuff there piss on you. That’s my opinion. I love Canadians but it has to stop and it’s going to. He is not aligning his self with Russia that is a lie watch what you say\nAnd furthermore, you can speak to the American people all you want. We follow our president and don’t threaten us.

Freedom loving Americans need to get ready for a long struggle too.

Im a Ukrainian born and an American citizen. I support freedom, and it breaks my heart to see Americas government side with Putin and abandon a freedom loving Ukraine. Thank you to everyone who supports Ukraine and opposes evil. God bless us all and help us.

A lot of us Americans love you Canada stay strong

Boy, Canadian PM is totally out from dumb trump’s league. Canadians, you’re in good hands there ? Poor Americans, please, do something before the USA will not be anymore the country you love.

Thank you for all that you do to be good allies. There are a lot of Americans that DO NOT want this Tariff war with your friends to the north or the south. We did not vote for the orange pumpkin and his unreasonable shenanigans. Love you Canada.

AMERICAN PEOPLE LOVE CANADA. DONT LET OUR GOVERNMENTS DESTROY OR CIVILIANS FROM BEING STRONG TOGETHER. ?????? (NORTH AMERICA STAND TOGETHER) ???????

I'm an American and I like this guy. Much love to my Canadian neighbors!!!

Americans love Canada. Sirry for the asshole

PLEASE dont let what trump does dictate how most americans feel this is all trump most of us love canada and its people you are our kin our faamily most of us in america do not like what trump is doing trump is a cancer to the united states hes dividing our country trump is a multi time felon trump is a wsomanizing racist with ties to a pedophile that invited him on his jet with undedrage girls that took hium to an island known as pedophile island trump spent time there the biggest majority of the usa wants him out of office

I am an American and love my country and its people. But TRUMP and Musk and Vance are villains ?! They must be defeated. And they will be stopped. We need to stick close to our neighbors and our friends in the world. Putin is not a friend. I hope our Canadian brothers know we real Americans want cooperation and friendship, not a trade war.

Love thy neighbor...WAKE UP, Christian Americans

As a American I love you Justin Trudeau thank you for standing up to our garbage leader which I hate so much.

Love Canada! As an American, I am totally ashamed who we picked as our president. And this is just the beginning.

I'm from Montreal but live in Vermont. I hold Canadian AND American citizenship. I've NEVER been so proud to be a Canadian. Yet, here in Vermont, MOST of us, including Governor Scott, detest Trump and his minions. Love 'n optimism, Heather in Newport Vermont

Aussie here. We are so sickened watching what’s going on in the US. It’s terrifying how fast Trump has turned against his allies. Canada, we Aussies love you and support you! Thank you for standing strong. To our American friends, keep fighting, keep protesting!

I am an American, I and my husband are sickened about what our President has done. WE love love Canada. Sorry So Sorry.

I love how the Americans cut and fade when Justin begins to speak in another language! Quick fade out he could be slagging us off in French! Switch it off!!!!!!!!!

THANK YOU!!! Thank You for doing what few have done. What few countries, what few leaders, especially our own leaders have had the BACK BONE to do. The world respects you. AMERICANS respect you!! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. I pray that you won't back down like other weak men and countries have. Thank You Canada, Americans love you. ?

I'm American...I love Canada! I have many friends there ! Thank you for standing up for Canada and actually for standing up for innocent Americans like me who never voted for this monster we have now as a president! I'm 50 and I've never ever seen anyone like the administration we have now ! My parents and my grandparents would be ashamed of Donald Trump especially my grandfather who was a world War 2 vet who received a purple heart award ! Shame on you Donald

We the American people voted for this. Trump represents us . And we love it. Tit for tat trump keep it going

An American here in the Pacific Northwest. All I can say is that we love you Canadians! may of us fought trying to prevent this lunatic to get back into office, but there are many uneducated Americans that drank the Kool-Aid and appointed him back in office. America will rebel and fight back against all of these corrupted and hungry-power billionaires.

Loving communists and hating Canada is the most un-American stuff ever

Despite the actions of the American government, this Torontonian loves and respects his American brothers and sisters. I don't hold this against them, I prefer and wish for a world where we are allies and friends over one where we fight with each other.

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am sorry President Trump's irresponsible ideas and choices affect so many negatively which includes you and your Canadians, and me and my Americans, as well as so many other. He should be ashamed of himself, but we all know that a narcissist feels only joy in hurting others. I worry every day, not just for the people of the United States of America, but also for all people around the world affected by this horrible man. I stand up and speak up with the hope that it makes a difference. Those I know are doing the same. I have heard so many republicans that voted for Trump, so very sorry now that they did. His irrational behavior is worthy of impeachment. Your speech, Prime Minister Trudeau, was honest and sincere and I appreciate your being so candid. I wish President Trump and Vice President Vance had the character you have. Best Wishes to you and the People of Canada, we have been friends for a long time and I would love to continue this friendship. Remember there are Americans here that appreciate you and your country.

I am an American. I want to apologize for our idiot president. With luck he will be gone soon. America loves Canada. Trump just likes to hurt people and break things fo his boss, Putin.

Trump just pissing off everyone in the world; including his own citizens. Trump does what he wants. I would say he isn't a smart man.\n\nAs a Canadian, I still love my American neighbours but Donald can pump sand ??

As I look at all the wonderful comments from Americans supporting Canada the tears are streaming down my face. Thank you! What I worry about is what is Trump up to?. \nWhy the decoupling from allies, not just Canada. Worse, why support Russia at the UN? Why take down your cyber defences? Is this a dictator digging himself in? Is he using Kim Jung Un's playbook? Americans, please be very careful with this man. The free world loves you but we need you to be free.

Americans are on you side. DEMOCRACY LOVING AMERICANS. YOU. do what you need to do to keep your country safe from TRUMP

American here,in full support of President Trump. Someone needs to be the bad guy and fix the globalist corruption. I personally never listen to or watch CNN. Canada is in a economic and cultural downfall for a reason. I have never supported Castros Bastard son, Trudeau. I love real Canadians and believe Canada would be much better as a US Territory/ State and hope they get rid of this weak little boy.

Great speech Prime Minister. Thank you. And Donald does not deserve to be called President or even the respect to be called Mr. Trump. He is not. He is a Bully. I am glad you called him Donald. I am sure a lot of people have another name for him right now. I am a proud Canadian. I do not blame the American people. Just those who put Donald in power and those who work with him and support him. I love the US and hope and pray we will get through this together.

Many of us did NOT vote for this administration - It's not Americans - it's this administration! We re SO sorry Prime Minister - We Americans love Canada! We will get through this - somehow!!!! Hopefully resume our relationship with you/Canada!

What an idiot. Your going to collapse your country. We dont need anything from Canada. Start making cars in usa again. Create a landbridge from alaska to Washington at least 1000 miles wide. Canada lost thier freedom of speech and thier freedom to protect themselves. Americans love Canadians so wee need to end the tyrannical globalist agenda and remove that regime from the face of the earth. Lets give canadians thier freedom.

This American family loves Canada and am so sorry this is happening to your country

I’m American and embarrassed by the current US government ignorance. Love for Canada
