I am a very proud Canadian. Thank you to all those supporting us from all over the world.

I'm SO proud of Trudeau. And I'm so happy he said the things people here need to hear but mostly aren't, definitely not this clearly.

I am so proud of Canada and the Prime Minister. As an American, and respect and support this professional and empathic acknowledgement to this hideous tariff war. Americans are watching a mature leader, addressing several nations. The Heritage foundation is reckless and feeding Dfrump.

So proud to be CANADIAN ?? to have such an educated PRIME MINISTER who can insult others without violence

Canadians should be proud of being represented by such a leader!

The United States is BANKRUPT! That is the only reason that makes sense why Trump needs tariffs on product from other countries (Trump Needs to have his people buy American). The USA needs all the money spent on themselves rather than on foreign products. This is also why Trump is pulling a Putin by trying to invade friendly countries, Even this action is to try to force Canada to become part of the United States so that they will own and Control our natural resources. The thing that the USA forgets is Canadians are Proud and Resistant to threats. We will remember this for a long time and even if this ILLEGAL ACTION works you will gain 40 MILLION TERRORISTS Hell bent on killing all Americans!

Everyone’s praising Trudeau here, I’m proud of my PM, I’m certain his Father Pierre would be too. \n\nHere’s how Donald’s brain will receive this speech,” Blah Blah Blah, Donald you’re a smart guy, Blah blah blah… \nDonald’s brain ain’t right!\n\nMy sympathies to the USA, hang in there, we’ll forgive when the current nuisance tenant at the White Houses lease is up.

So proud of PM Trudeau!

I am so proud of Justin Trudeau for standing up and speaking up like many of us here wish our president could and would

I As an American citizen can only hope that we would have a president in office with the intelligence, compassion and dignity that PM Trudeau has. At this time I am truly ashamed of my country. Especially the ones that put this hateful, revenge seeking, criminal monster in our White House. I stand with you 100% Canada. I also hope that maybe within the next year, trump will be gone. I don't know how or where but just gone. As intelligent as prime minister Trudeau is I have to disagree with one comment he made. trump is NOT a smart man. He is nothing but a 34 count convicted felon, rapist and criminal wannabe dictator. I shudder at the thought of the end of his four year disaster. What will our country do when we have no allies whatsoever. He loves russia and putin, His puppet master. He does not understand that Russia has never been our friend, is not our friend. And never will be our friend. He just loves putin because He wants to be just like him. He is the United States very own Adolf Hitler. Also , I have removed our flag from my front yard that I so proudly displayed my entire life. It will be raised again but only after this nightmare called trump is gone! Please accept the apology from millions of Americans that stand with you. We are truly sorry and we are suffering with you. God help us. And God Bless Canada ❤

I'm proud to be canadian, Trump will not win!

I don’t understand how orange stupid lost his first trade war he started during his first term and doubling down again thinking something will magically change. I suppose the only thing that changed was how much more dummies drunk the orange Julius and here are now with folks proud of fellow Americans losing their jobs, a foreigner meddling with domestic policy, and shitting on our allies because they think these alleged cuts will somehow directly benefit their personal bank accounts.

Canadian here. Let me share this with people that may not know much about the history our country.\n\nIf you want to understand just how pissed off Canadians are with the US right now, here is one lil detail. Quebec, a province that has LONG grappled with wanting to secede from Canada is now proudly waving the flag in defiance of Trump's nonsense. \n\n\nLet that sink in.

I am proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau! Please do not bach down from the bully.

Never was a fan of the guy but I am so proud to be Canadian right now. True north strong.

I do not like Trudeau at all, but I have never been more proud of something he said. Spot on! We will win against these unjust tariffs! Fuck Donald Trump

Proud of Canada and its response to the USA bully tactics. Love Australia

Our intelligent Prime Minister! Thank you Trudeau, for making us proud to be ??!

I’m not Canadian but Trudeau made me proud of being Canadian!

I'm sure CNN is very proud of Trudeau..

Proud of my Prime Minister and Mexico President for standing up against this bully shame on him attacking his friends big dummy

I am proud of Canada president

I am SO proud of our Prime Minister he echoed Canadian sentiments exactly PERFECTLY said Mr. Prime Minister ❤God bless you ??God bless Canada??. God bless Ukraine??God bless his world?protect us all from the evil that has become the 50 United States??

Vladimir putin a lying, murderous dictator. This so far from reality but sadly people remain ignorant for some reason. Being dumb and ignorant and proud of it

Absolutely true. How nice to listen to a leader who speaks truthfully and intelligently. My great grandfather was Canadian, he would have been so proud of you.

I'm proud Donald Trump is my president ❤

Proud Canadian….we stand with our leaders. Great speech, respectful, intelligent, on point… …standing up for ?? No drama, just facts.

So very proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau!

Trudeau’s time to shine. Despite the circus in Canadian parliament and Trump politics, he is standing proud and strong for the Canadian, American, and even Mexican people due to unacceptable action- cost of living is now greater and scarier.

From Canada, and reading the comments is truly heartfelt. Trudeau gets a pretty polarizing reputation in our country, but to know the world sees him as more reputable and more of a leader makes me proud to be Canadian and to stay positive in these chaotic times. Thank you

Proud of our prime minister. Canadians don't want this, but we also won't back down from a bully.

Proud Canadian here .. thank-you for such a wonderful speech Prime Minister Trudeau. To the world: thank-you for your messages of support. To the Americans: we've received supportive messages from so many of you as well, thank-you.

Trump and Vance are clear Russian agents. Proud of Canada for standing up to this dumb ass administration. Embarrassed to be American even though I didn’t choose this President. These administration obviously has no idea what they are doing or purposely spreading chaos.

Born and raised in Canada here, 64 years old... American stuff is all over the place in this country... my Bosch D/W and washing machine are both made in USA... heck even our toilets are American Standard... and simultaneously we supply USA and ROW with high quality products that meet or exceed ASTM standards... so please do let us know how that Russian aluminum and steel works out because everything I've every seen from Russia is a fucking joke... there's absolutely nothing in my life that say Proudly Made in Russia because only the oligarchs are proud to be Russian.

That’s how a leader speak!\nWith stats and figures to back his words not just gross lies!\nRegardless of their political affiliations, Canadians should be proud to have a leader who can speak so coherently!\nTrudeau will be gone in few days, but will be remembered for this speech, amongst many others ??

Im from Philippines living in Canada! GO CANADA! Im so proud I leave here at this dark times. Let’s do this together! Oh Canada we love this nation ! ❤️??

Proud Ghanaian standing with Ukraine and Canada.

Proud! Our problem is not with America. It is with the aggressive cancer that is growing there.

What a speech!❤❤❤\nSo proud of our handsome, intelligent Mr. Trudeau!\nThank everyone who supports Canada, thank you for all comments!\nDear American neighbours we love you, but we love and stand united for our beloved Canada??????

Please sir, may I move to Canada. Im not a karen, i mind my business and engage in civility, dignity and respect. I appreciate this speech. So proud

Texan and Cold War veteran here. Canada has fought beside us in every major conflict and a number of small ones as well and has always been a good friend to the American people. I will do everything I can to support Canada and Ukraine and any other ally our current dis-administration attempts to bully. \n\nExcellent speech Mr. Prime Minister, you are what leadership and integrity look like and Canadians can be proud to call you their own. You are polite, we are not. You are loyal, we are not. You have guts, we currently do not. God keep your land glorious and free!

Proud of Prime Minister Trudeau today ?? It's a very sad day for all of North America. So many people's lives are going to be negatively impacted

Bravo Trudeau , we are proud of you !!!! We are very sure the Canadian Conservative party supporters are very sad at this moment but we don't care about the US supporting Canadian parties.

Trudeau has drug Canada's Economy Down and Held the Proud Canadian People Hostage depending on Already Unfair Tax/Trade Terriffs on American Products that have kept Trudeaus Criminal Administration!

Proud of our Prime Minister and proud of Canada.??

As a Minnesotan, I feel as if I’m almost as Canadian as American and proud to say so. Our present sitting president and buffoon unelected sidekick Musk are creating chaos everywhere for the sake of billionaire donors and supporters. Absolutely none of what Trump/Musk has done and plans to continue to do is beneficial to a single non-wealthy American and these actions will harm his personal voters (of which I’ve never been one!) the most. Trump cares not. Pervasive narcissistic sociopathy is not curable! Stand strong Canada! We’re trying mightily to defeat this insanity here in the USA! 74 million people did not vote for any of this harm and destruction and outright cruelty!

I'm a proud Canadian. The whole world, including Americans, will suffer because of this. But hang on tight and help your neighbours, we'll get through as we have gone through adversity in the past. ❤

Good afternoon Canada don’t let the bully,bully you guys Iam so proud of Canada

Very proud of our Prime Minister!!! The Trump administration is currently destroying America. Canadians and Americans have been working hand in hand for more than a century and it's so sad to see that a bunch of billionnaires are using lies and manipulation to get their way. I'm also very surprised to see that the Republican politicians are reacting like puppets. Let's hope that truth and common sense will soon prevail in the United States.

Now THAT is a true leader, I hope Canadians are proud today. You elected a man, not a whining, insecure orange baby.
