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.

FrommGermany: Great speech of Trudeau ohne can only hope that it is being heard. One can only hope that Americans get rid of Trump‘s madness somehow.

Trudeau is on his way out, and he knows it. Canadians hate him. We all saw that change could come through elections. Make Canada Great Again.

From Switzerland, bravo Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau, great in this crazy world...

Justin Trudeau is correct citizens this is what the Trump administration has brought upon the US citizens their disgraceful to America and to the American citizens that represent this great nation and Trump and Vance have turned it around to hurt the people in the United States

Trudeau is a Great leader.

Great speech from Trudeau, thank you for speaking to us. Trump is a old, disgusting piece of crap. He needs to be gone along with his moronic cabinet and the spineless Republicans.

I blame the American people who voted for Trump. I am going to disagree with Prime Minister Trudeau when he said Donald is smart, Donald is as stupid as they come. Everything this man touches he ruins. Great job MAGA ????‍♀️

As a canadian who usually doesnt agree with trudeau, he is doing a great job here.

From India: Canada & Trudeau is so amaizingly great

While I don’t agree with Trumps tariffs, I understand why he’s doing them. As a Canadian citizen, please don’t glamorize Trudeau- hes a spoiled rotten brat of a former PM. Nothing more. You’ve not lived the last 10 years under his totalitarian govt, suspending the rights of Canadians at will, insulting and dividing our country at will, taking away legal firearms owners rights rights at will (people who had to pass safety courses and are more vetted than RCMP officers). \n\nHe’s proven to be more fake than a $3 dollar bill. All the liberal & ndp’s in Canada are. He has the worst record in Canadian history as a PM, including the highest taxes, home prices, massive, unsustainable immigration, and the worst healthcare crisis in Canada’s socialized medical system since its inception. \n\nHe’s accumulated more debt than all previous PM’s COMBINED (as per the PBO). \n\nThen he comes on here after he resigned on Jan.6th - yes after cratering Canada’s economy methodically for the last 10 yrs - to inflame the POTUS and who will pay for that? Canadian and American working class citizens. \n\nIf you think Canada is so great, you’re either a wealthy boomer, or have no clue what it’s like to work for a living in this modern economy in Canada. People are required to work 2-3 jobs just to afford the basics. Wages have been stagnant since the 90’s here, with cost of living rising 600-700% in the last 10 yrs.

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.

Don't get sucked in by this piece of garbage. He's excited to kill Canadas economy and finish implementing the Great Reset. You will own nothing and be happy. \nHe talks about fertilizer while he heavily restricts fertilizer in Canada. Ugh.... \n \nYou can't hate Trudeau enough.

As a Canadian who is not really supporting Trudeau, I am going to put this inside matter aside for a moment and say great speech sir!

I’d be happy with Trudeau being POTUS. From everything I’ve seen from him he’s been great for Canada, but the US has the orange…

Mr. Trudeau, like Mr. Zelinsky are strong caring smart men who are showing us as citizens of The United States what a weak dangerous bully narcissistic leadership we have! This will hurt us not only with buying things, but alienating our country when there is a time of great need, like an, God forbid, attack!..People....WAKE UP before it's too late! Do you think putin isn't waiting for our country to become vulnerable??? so he can turn on us too!! WAKE UP

It is sad but this is exactly what Trump is wanting. He is creating chaos and attacking our friends so he can create an emergency and declare martial law. In effect Trump is becoming a dictator who aligns with Russia and will be Putin's puppet. Great speech from PM Trudeau. I support Canada and all actions they take against Trump, regardless of how that will hurt us. This is ALL Trump's fault.

Well done Trudeau , you are showing your genuine love and character by saying what is right only for the Canadian people and for this very beautiful country Canada. \nStanding with Canadians at this difficult time. Great nations face great challenges and come out of them as united and heads high

Well done Canada ??? A great speech given by Trudeau, a true leader. Europe will trade with ye ??

Great man Trudeau ? \nTrumps is shame of American nation \nImpeachment

❤ from Bhutan ???. Mr.prime minister Trudeau the GREAT ?

As a Canadian who could never stand Trudeau, even his face is annoying to look at, I must say he gave a great speech here. I even even liked Trump for many years and now am so disgusted by him.

Great speech Mr Trudeau and shame on our Felon Con Trump for those tarrifs that are only going to hurt our country and the people. The derranged Trump is looking out only for himself and his Billionaire cronies who donate to his campaigns ! The Donald Con Trump thinks he is still in the Apprentice. Poor fool?

Great work PM Trudeau!!!!!!!!!

Great listening to Trudeau a person that makes sense unlike the grifter that we have

From Holland: what a great politician is Justin Trudeau. Adressing the people with no lies and firm. It will not be easy, but stay strong Canadians. ????

From south america. Great speech Mr Trudeau .

Great speech. Thank you Trudeau

? THIS IS HOW GREAT LEADERS TALK! JUSTIN TRUDEAU IS A WORLD GREATEST LEADER.

¨¨Merci M. Trudeau, je suis portugais, mais avec tous les Canadians, A great people with European roots, I'm sure all Europe is with you. Stand up! you are right.

The relationship between Canada and the US is because of Trudeau. He isn’t getting his way so he is making a huge mistake with his disrespect toward our Great President Trump. Canadians want Trudeau to step down. \nHow do I know? I have a huge number of relatives there. My mother was born there and my dad served honorably in the Royal Canadian Navy during the second World War.\nTrudeau is and always has been hateful toward Canadians. Canadians do not respect or like him. \nBy the way… we are boycotting CNN.

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

This whole situation saddens me greatly. Trudeau is speaking the truth.

Lmao ??? Trudeau is on his way out Trump is going too make Canada great again. Trump is resetting geopolitics. Get ready world.

What a great leader Trudeau is , love you

Say about Trudeau what you will, but that was a great speech!

I’m on the fence about Trudeau, but I must say, this is a great, direct, and necessarily blunt speech. ??

Justin Trudeau Great Prime Minister ??????

President Trudeau-I’m an American. We live paycheck to paycheck. We didn’t vote for Trump & the GOP. The Republican Party has been doing everything it can to destroy America & the hard working people that keep it running, for years. They’ve finally succeeded. It’s an evil party, filled with vile,malicious assholes. But even though we won’t be able to afford many more things anymore, I greatly admire & appreciate you & your country standing up to Trump. If only more of our own ppl would have done that, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

That´s how a great and reasonable leader speaks. We need more Trudeau´s in the world!

Please know PM Trudeau, there are a great many of us in the US who don't want this either and want to remain friends with our neighbors to the north. Shame on Trump and his broligarchy!

Blistering speech? lol Trudeau is an authoritarian idiot, socialist. We need him gone. Thank your lucky stars you have Trump making America great again.

Another American here, Trudeau absolutely KILLED it! Such a great speech. \n\nI stand with Canada, the EU, and Ukraine. \n\nHopefully this shameful chapter in our country is over soon.

Great job! Mr.Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

OH JUSTIN YOU ARE SO RIGHT THIS IS VERY PERSONAL YOU MADE FUN OF HIM AND HE IS TAKING REVENGE, BUT PRESIDENT CHUMP OBVIOUSLY CANNOT SEPERATE BUSINESS FROM HIS PERSONAL PROBLEMS, THE WHOLE WORLD DOES NOT LIKE THIS GUY WHEN HIS TERM IN OFFICE IS OVER THE ONLY TWO PLACES THAT HE WOULD BE WELCOME IN IS HIS HOME COUNTRY AND RUSSIA AND I AM NOT SO SURE ABOUT RUSSIA I WROTE ON YOUTUBE BEFORE THAT THIS GUY IS SINKING THE AMERICAN FLEET FAST AND MORE THOROUGHLY THAN THE JAPANESE DID AT PEARL HAROR MAN AT THIS MOMENT THE TWO WORST NATIONALITIES TO BE IS AMERICAN AND RUSSIAN THEY BOTH ARE CAUSING GREAT HARM NOT ONLY TO THE WORLD, BUT MOSTLY TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND COUNTRIES TALK ABOUT SELFISH LEADER'S. PRESIDENT CHUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING WITH THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW IT IS NOT IF WE WILL ENGAGE EACH OTHER IN A WORLD WAR, BUT WHEN THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW ARE STEERING THE HUMAN RACE IN THAT DIRECTION AND PRESIDENT CHUMP YOU AND PRESIDENT POUTINE WILL BE CHIEFLY RESPONSIBLE. THE LEADER'S WE HAVE ELECTED TODAY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE MISERY IN THE WORLD TODAY. LEADER'S LIKE PRESIDENT KENNEDY, GHANDI, CHURCHILL ETC. TODAY WE HAVE LEADER'S LIKE TRUDEAU WHO CREATED MISERY AND DIVISION IN CANADA THE FORE MENTIONED LEADER'S ALREADY METIONED ARE DIRECTED BY PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION AND HYPOCRACY. PRESIDENT ZELINSKY I AM AFFRAID LEADER'S LIKE YOU THAT HAVE COURAGE INTEGRITY AND STRENGHT ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN I AM SORRY TO TELL YOU BUT I THINK IN REALTY YOU STAND ALONE NOT MANY LEADER'S TODAY PUT COUNTRY AND COUNTRYMEN AND WOMEN BEFORE THEIR PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION, BUT IF YOU SUCCEED YOU WILL BE STRONGER AND FAR BETTER OFF GOD BLESS

Prime Minister Trudeau, you are wrong about 1 thing. donald trump is not smart. he is a TOTAL dumbass! You were probably trying to compliment him since he only responds well to those who kiss his feet, but don't do it. We Americans know what he is, know this is ALL his doing and think Canada is great!

From România great speech, respect Mr PM Trudeau , respect Canada and Ukraine. I hope we are able to overcome these times. We all want peace.

What a great man Trudeau is! And what a disgusting thug Trump is.
