A real leader. I'm so sorry Canada has to deal with our petulant child of a president.

Not for nothing this is what a real leader sounds like.

No made up words or insults-- can we Americans even imagine this is what a real leader looks like? #FCKYOURVOTERSREMORSE

As an American I can say wholeheartedly, “Wow, so that’s what real leadership looks like!”\nMeanwhile, we’re stuck with Mr Orange… ?

Unfortunately you have a real estate developer running the USA, so Greenland can be purchased, Gaza can become a riviera, Gulf of Mexico can be renamed, Ukraine can be arm twisted into handing over its minerals and Canada can become the 51st state so that it can be plundered of all its land and resources. Donald thinks he is intelligent and everyone else is stupid.

Now THAT is a real leader. I say this as an American: F Trusk! We love you, Canada. ??

Sorry, Justin. While you’re speaking to real Americans, this will never be shown to the cult that has infiltrated us.

Carnaval came to an end. The world has seen the real face now. Is good that this had happened, because the real face was hidden.

As a real Hispanic American??, from Texas I stand with America ?? and President Donald J Trump ?? \n\nCanada looks like a Austin Powers scene ? they are slowly taking our freedom as well open your eyes

I am Spanish, the real and only father of modern America. Our hearts are with Mexico and Canada.

Me again. I too have something to say to the Americans who are struggling. Let me ask you all something. What does a country really need to keep it going? The answer is people. With no people working to keep a country going. Then you can't really call your country a country. Let me sadly tell you this ladies and gentlemen. The America you loved and worked hard to sustain, is gone, gone and replaced by your president and his followers. America is now Trump's America. He has change everything that made your America free, peaceful and safe. And when or not you get it back. All of you need to make a decision. If you feel like your safety, life and wellness of your family is in real danger. Then if you can get out of America. Go to a country that you believe will help you and keep you and your family safe and well. Always put your families safety and health first. But if you Don't have the money or a car go leave? Then let me say. Keep fighting and don't stop fighting until this low life criminal and traitor is removed from power. I am praying for all of you who are struggling. Don't give in and don't give up.❤

I can understand. Whoever signed the latest US / Mexico / Canada agreement is a real idiot! What North America needs is some kind of free trade agreement!

We real Americans are wirh you they are nazt and with I fuk south african

Trudeau is a woke, no-good version of a modern dictator! Trump is a real leader! CNN keeps lying...

OH, my GOD real leader

Well spoken Mr Trudeau. I am proud to be Canadian. I feel sad for both countries. Can't believe that no judge is declaring the National Security argument as unjustified. I thought this was not possible to impose this without voting it properly if national security is not a real threat under the US constitution... And the argument of trade deficit is such a weird concept. Would Trump agenda be more evil here, and use economic force to force Canada to annex them because they want our resources?

Prime Minister Trudeau is boldly hitting the nails on the head, and I admire his boldness and honesty as I've always admired Canada and its peoples. Trump is in the back pocket of the Russian dictator. His actions prove it to my satisfaction. Canada has been a staunch friend of the US, a real partner not just for economic benefits for both countries but for a democratic way of life. Canada is a strong democracy whose people are known for their open hearts and minds. I pray that this idiotic trade war started by a man who is subservient to Putin will come to an end. I say to Canadians, let us stick to our common values of democracy, free expression, peaceful borders, and our commitment to the greatest good of the many rather than the greatest good of the few and the Russian dictator.

Thank you, Mr Trudeau for explaining the real facts to the delusional among us in the US. I pray that some republicans watch CNN and see this!

Now while I can't stand Joly and that dude. I must admit that the message right on point. Well played Trudope. \n\nNow lets elect a real pm!

The tariffs make sense when you realize that trump's real goal is to destroy democracy everywhere so he can be a dictator like Putin.

Hats off to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau! This is REAL leadership! All Europe should stand with Canada now! Greetings to Canadian people from Romania! You will get over this!

Great for the domestic politics in US, Trump and his rude and impolite VP, Vance, are disastrous for our foreign relations and politics. Being nasty to our siblings in Canada?!?!? Come on, real estate man: wise up before it is too late

Dear orange president dumba$$, this is what a real leader looks like. Just like Zelensky, he is a straight talking leader. Take a lesson, you big orange loser.

Prime Minister Trudeau is a real leader, calm, polite, intelligent and well spoken. Unfortunately, many americans do not see Donnie and vnace as real nor reasonable leaders.\n\nEdit: I truly hope that people like General Clark look really close at the inofrmation that came out that Donnie is actually a russia asset and groomed to have been for decades.

What a real leader sounds like!

Starting this trade war is not only the craziest political decision I have seen in my entire life, it destroys the relationship between the US and its closest allies on purpose. A relation that has been built over decades. People and businesses on both sides of the pond will suffer badly from this idiotic agenda for no real reason. The USA is now officially at trade war with the free world.

I like trump and what he stands for but since he took office he's been a real scumbag to all the allies. As a brit we should help Canada as much as possible, America Is not America and ut won't be for many many years, after trump it will be Vance as president then another bully after that. Europe needs to stand up all over the place fxxk America and Russia, conventionally Russia wouldn't stand a chance against the EU its time we stood up.

nobody in canada cares what this idiot says we need real leadership not a dramatic chump

I find myself (United States Citizen) cheering for any country imposing tariffs on the United States. Put the largest shit stain (excuse my language) on Trump's presidency. It is the only way his brainwashed followers will understand. Make things expensive and make them think twice about who they voted for. I would absolutely love for them to be able to watch this and understand, but they have been brainwashed since 2016. The only thing that will be real to them, is the impact on their finances. If you do that, the 2026 midterms will be an absolute wave of republican seats flipping Democrats.

I am ashamed to be an American now. I was from 2016-2020 as well. The insanity of XX45 is 100x worse now, along with the unhinged Elon musk. We are in dire straits. Real Americans LOVE YOU Canada! ???

It is so clear that the great nation of Canada beats with a logic based on free enterprise, mutual benefit and at its heart welfare of its citizens, The U,S, like all great empires is dying, come join us in Europe, together we are the real vangaurds of a free world, some fantastic world beating business's, and the biggest market in the world. A bridge is waiting, come walk it.

Big Talk from a lil man ! Trump real president gonna stand for America First ❤

BRAVO to Canada, Justin Trudeau is a real LEADER!! Unlike the mad, bloated Orange POS and his sychophantsl who have dragged my Country back into 1930's Germany

Trump is ruining the world. Real Americans are ashamed.

tHIS GUAY A BOZZO HE THE REAL REASON WHY CANADA IN THIS MESS ONLY THIS CLOWN

You Talking real good PM Trudeau!!! ????

Yeah, pretend to care when it matters. But turn a blind eye to the financial burden you’ve screwed Canadian’s over with during the past 9 years. You resigned over a month Justin ago, get out. We want a real leader.

This man ruined Canada! Out of control immigration, massive rise in the price of real estate, cost of living and CRIME whilst the lowering of the quality of life of Canadians. \n\nPeople are blindly applauding an incompetent whom most Canadians hate.

We Real Americans stand with you Canada and we will remove trump as soon as we can.

Real Americans stand up when a friend is threatened. Canada has the people's support.

The real reason for the tariffs is because it has never been fair for the United States we pay more taxes for products in Canada in Mexico in Europe and it's always been like that and it's sad that it has to come to this in order for everybody to pay their fair share. That's the real reason. it'sad that countries are mad because they can't continue to rip off the United States. if there's fair trades there are no tariffs period

As a German. Does nobodys see what that oranje old man do? We mobilise 100B € rapidly. They showed the ppl an old fashioned fake 60 minute Story about us and nobodys asks should that be real? The white house is a house full off lies. Do something Folks. America will be rapidly isolated. Its about fentanyl ...Lol such a joke.

OMG this is what a REAL leader looks and sound like. You go Trudeau!

Why can’t we have a real leader like this! Instead we have a belligerent egomaniac Russian asset as president. He shouldn’t have even had 10% of the vote. Y’al knew better but didn’t vote better because of many superficial reasons, among them, sexism and racism. Now all of us Americans are losing. I’d love to see the day when we as Americans can come together as ONE & stand up against people like Trump that are harming all Americans. United we stand. Divided, ALL of us fall. Some of y’al thought it wouldn’t impact you even if his policies impacted others (and not you) so you didn’t care and voted for public enemy #1 despite all the warnings given. Now here we are. I really truly hope that America has a whole will look at ourselves in the mirror at what we’ve allowed to be, and change our ways by coming together as one country that wants to see Americans do well and be good and be able to take care of their families, regardless of race or sex, or gender, immigration status or any of the superficial barriers.

Your speech don’t make any sense at all with the far-left propaganda \nand you only go against good loyal people with warm hearts, but when you encounter a real monster or wild animal, you immediately tuck your tail, retreat, and suffocate in fear.

Trump gave earlier the real reason why he started this trade war: he wants Canada to become the 51st state of the USA. He also wants Greenland so he can secure the Northern passage.\nCanada is a country of the British Commonwealth, and it is interesting that Trudeau met with King Charles last week. Oddly enough, the British Prime Minister dodged questions from White House reporters on this topic.\nNow about the G7 forthcoming summit: Trump is a convicted felon and may not attend without the permission of the host country, which this year happens to be Canada!

Trudeau speaks like a real president. As a German, I support the Canadians ?? ??

This is what a real leader looks like.

WOW! A real leader, actually leading his country with its best interest in mind! I am so ashamed to be an American right now. Can someone please save us!!!! HELP!!!!!

Amazing that no proof has been shown for Trumps claims, yet his actions were taken without any real resistance.
