Mr, Trudeau prime minister, I am glad that you are standing up to trump do what is right for your country do not allow this, man child trump push you around, stand up take a stand do what is right what is just, your people who voted for you deserve it, show the world ?? that integrity, honestly and the rule of law still matters, let the world see trump for what he is, and I say to the other leaders do not be afraid to do the right thing, a good leader loves his people a good leader protects it's people , silence ? at this point in time is not acceptable, when you see tyranny speak up i asked my father ounce what makes a man, i could see in his face that he was thinking about this question very hard and he turned and looked at me and said, a man will stand up for what he believes in,no matter the price, and a real man will always protect those that can't protect themselves, for this is the mark of a real man and gentleman, i have never forgotten those words that he spoke to me, and I believe that this saying also has religious implication as well, after everything is said and done it's not the voters that are going to judge you in the end it's god and he is going to judge you on his standards not MAGA

So refreshing to hear our well spoken prime minister after hearing that orange turd most of the time in the news! And yet so many here hate Trudeau! Sad sad world we live in.

Ah basically it’s if Americans can outlast Canadians? Due too our leaders decisions. Hm well aren’t Canadians already living in bad conditions under Trudeau, so it goes too say American will come out on top.

Well, Trudeau, President Trump knows what he is doing, whether you like it or not.

I'm an italian, more than that an european... And we are with you, Canada. Well spoken and done, Mr. Trudeau. ❤??

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

Well said Mr Trudeau. It’s an absolute shame that Trump is able to take these actions unilaterally

I wish you well Canadians during this time. Well spoken Mr. Trudeau

Fuck. I hate Trudeau. But damn he did well here. Good job ?

America is now hated - by our allies! We have become the bad guys of history. Nobody can trust us anymore. It's shameful. No matter what one thinks of Trudeau, he speaks well here, and he speaks the truth. Ignore the MAGA Americans and Russian trolls who will belittle him. He's right here, there's no escaping this. Every decent US citizen should be ashamed.

Bravo ?? Mr. Trudeau, very well expressed.

One thing Trudeau is good at is talking. Eloquent words and well said, unfortunately words will not put food on my table. However, again, that was a very very nice speech.

American here and I say well done Trudeau. I see courage, intelligence and class in this speech compared to the cowardice, brown nosing and treachery I see on our side.

I appreciate Prime Minister Trudeau! And I have much respect for Canada! ?? ? \nI’d like to see us recover relations with our allies and strengthen communication so we all can work together toward peaceful resolutions. This will help trade as well as climate concerns. \nIt Certainly Can Be Done! We must bring the best communicators to the table. \n(And begin with prayer because all peace begins with God!) ??️?

Well said Trudeau! You are a brave man stands against the dictator, Donald duck Trump. We American need a true leader like you!

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for your courageous and truthful words. U.S. citizens know Canada isn't acting against U.S. citizens, but against the U.S. Federal government as well it should. Canadians are lucky to have you in your role. I wish we here in the U.S. had someone of your caliber in the White House.

Justin Trudeau's drug policies in Canada have been a disaster and now he pretends he is concerned about Fentanyl [a member of the class of drugs known as fentanyls, rapid-acting opioid (synthetic opiate) drugs that alleviate pain without causing loss of consciousness (analgesic). Fentanyl depresses central nervous system (CNS) and respiratory function. Exposure to fentanyl may be fatal.] going into the United States. He is a lame-duck Prime Minister on his way out of political life let alone public office as Prime Minister of Canada. His poll numbers were miserable and he was not supported within many in his own cabinet because of his divsisive decisions with Alberta, female MPs and hypocritical and harmful actions and words as well as broken promises to the Canadian Tax payers.

Well said Mr Trudeau ? ❤️??❤️??

A man with principals. Well spoken Mr. Trudeau.

Well spoken Trudeau. Its now up to the American people to remove the government it voted for

Thank you Mr. Trudeau. Well said.

Thank you PM Trudeau for a well articulated, respectful but forceful message. There are many clear thinking Americans behind you

American here in the PNW standing with Canada! I wish our current administration was as well-spoken as Trudeau! Instead we get the orange criminal and his chainsaw wielding minion. ?

Well said, Mr. Trudeau. \nFrom yet another American that supports Canada and loathes the idiots running our country.

I’ve been opposed to Trudeau since he came into power. I’ve always thought of him as a deluded maniac. But this speech was really impressive…. Well done.

Trudeau wrote this like he studied Kendrick Lamars game plan lol i wouldn't wanna upset him DONALD. Its not gonna end well for you. Ask Drake.

Well said Mr Trudeau ❤

Well Trudeau it seems to me that you feel like pain we are feeling in Haiti even though it is not nearly the same. You sent your ship and helicopter in Haiti on feels pretences that you are going to tackle the gangs theories there; then you played with our emotions ; when you knew full well you were not going to do a danm things. I can tell though we used to hard life. We have been living it since the day the island of Haiti declared her independence.

?? here. Sure, we have our differences internally. Sure, we have problems. But oh my, in my many years of experience I have never seen Canadians united the way we have become as a result of threats eminating from the US. For this, we are putting our differences aside and uniting as one. I’m not a Trudeau fan, but he speaks - very well - for our nation.

As a Canadian, I am not a fan of Trudeau, but he spoke well and thoughtfully today.

well done Mr Trudeau?????

Trudeau is Right in everything he said Except one item .. Donald is Not Smart, If we had a President as Smart as Trudeau in America well you know what the results would be.

....last 5 years (since plandemic) started is turbulent, interesting to watch all that, in Corona time i couldn't stand Trudeau and much appreciated Trump, now it's kinda opposite....??....well all that sounds pretty democracy right?....kinda like it....

Trudeau, Sir well said. Our Government wishes to hurt us. And you broke down what you have been doing. Your speech is well understood and delivered. Our pockets here in America is already strained, we don’t need this tariff. ??

I fucking hate Trudeau, but I gotta admit, this was very well said. He said nothing but the Truth. Even though I'm a Castreau hater, I have a little bit more respect for our PM after this statement. Well said buddy.

Its a joke. Well spoken trudeau. Stand strong, i expect our european governments to be with you!!

Well done Trudeau. You speak like a grown-up.

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.

Very well said PM Trudeau!

I am a proud Canadian. Well said Trudeau. CANADA IS NOT FOR SALE.

Great speach of our Prime Minister!!! Well done Mr. Trudeau!

Canadian here. My husband and I listen at you here on CNN Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and we couldn't be more proud of you and your team. You say intelligent words right from the start and you deliver a strong message in a very strong manner, beginning with this: the US is declaring economic war on Canada, as well as strong arguments, and that fentanyl is just a pretext, which we all already know, that getting closer to Russia and cutting ties with its allies is Donald Trump's current course of action, and the fair question to ask is why is this man putting himself at the service of the Kremlin which is totally unnatural for an American.?

Standing with Canada! Well done, Mr Trudeau!\n(Ukrainian ?? temporary living in Portugal ??)

Trudeau was one of the first presidents to congratulate Trump in person after his election victory. Well, I'm pretty sure he would take that back if he knew this day would come. In any case, good delivery, cool, calm, collected and convincing. Kudos, young man?

Nice speech Mr. Trudeau ! Well Done ! Fière d'être Canadien tout d'un coup !

I hate Trudeau, but I cant deny he made a intelligent, well-thought out speech.

yo trudeau would you saysomething about putin to netanyahu as well ? you damn hypocrite

Well done Prime Minister Trudeau??. Thank you for demonstrating true leadership.

Regardless of how you feel about Trudeau, this was a brilliant retort to Trump’s bullshit trade war. I felt even more proud to be a Canadian after hearing this serious pushback from Trudeau. Very well said.

Well done Canada. Trudeau is a leader. Trump is a Chump
