These people DO NOT know how to talk to Americans and especially Trump. This is NOT going to work, you should have stuck with the begging and leave the shit talking out tbh - would have served you better! Good luck Canada. But ??

Why can’t the Democratic leadership besides crocket, AOC, Pete and Bernie talk like this. The Canadian Prime Minister is explaining it like crayons for the ignorant people in the U.S. who voted for this orange man to understand.

Huh trump and Putin have a very dirty mind what is going on ? Especially trump he lost he's mind ! Amarican destroyed all over middle east and now he talk about Canada Mexico and Europe ? really did amarican people know why they vote for trump??? Amarica should wake up before anything happens!!!

I want that guy to be my president Im moving to Canada or the UK want a competent leader not an orange sour head who doesn't understand business or politics and his little disrespectful side kick JD Vance should have got his Azz kicked by President Zelensky for talking while grown people are talking

all you people,, this is what cheats and crooks do,. talk sweet on the camera,, but do not do any work which effects your daily lives. Trump is not those people,, his action speaks louder than words,, the time to rip america off is over,, america will prosper now,, free money and aid is gone now,, all you countries,, work hard to earn your wages now,, nothing is going to be a handout,, america is no more your grannys shop.

I would love to have more leaders talk directly to AMERICAN people to let them know facts and the real truth. Some Americans listen to Trump. Most of us stand with you Canada. Trump has lost his mind and spineless republican politicians are heppy to listen to him.

Avtrue criminal , active war mongerer against Ukrainian lives, talking against President Putinn , an honest leader just trying to protect his people against criminal NATO leaders!. WHAT A LIE, TRUDEAU-LYER!

We need more of this European Mexican and Canadian leaders talking directly to the American people cuz our government is actively lying and hurting us understand this is not by mistake it's very deliberate..

Mr Trudeau \nbeautiful to hear how much you care for your Canadian. \nAs a American I'm I'm embarrassed how our leader talks to people.\nHe has no compassion and no respect for no one I'm embarrassed be an American with a leader like him?.

Eliminating our allies so that Trump and his evil doers can take over our country but there are idts that can't see it. Way doesn't anyone talk about that because that is what is going on. I am okay with what our allies are doing because maybe that is what will wake up these people that support this madness. The United States is like walking around in a forest with wolves just waiting for us to be sleeping or just not protected and attack use. Trump said Ukraine was starting WWlll that is bull shit he is and it is all part of the plan.

Is everyone aware that Justin Trudeau resigned? Vote of no confidence. He basically got booted for being horrible for Canada. Judging by the comments section here, there are many thousands of people who literally have zero idea of what they are talking about.

Reassuring to see so many country leaders talk so professionally in the wake of the Clown leader of the Circus in the US, have so much respect for Trudeau and the people of Canada, I feel so sorry for the American people your leader is an embarrassment to you and the world, regards from Down Under??

Trudeau Gov.destroyed Canada all aspect of existing country.\nTrudeau treat Canadian citizens as conquered people. Trudeau acted the same way with USA to involved in election against Trump.\nCanadian paíd for enviroment to kill own economy to grow..\nNow ,For Canadian citizens is better to be state of USA not too much tax.more freedom,not discrimination the white Christian man. It is wrong to create hate against American what next - contempt latter degenaration.\nTrudeau want to made damage to USA. The best,after stop deliver hydro ,energía is develop produce,fantynol will be big problem\nI prefere Alberta Primer Schmit to find solution in talking deal.\nOther way is join to USA for better life for Canadian people, and better west global possibility against China\n.

Make a deal !!! idiot !!! Americans pay for your free heath care !!! How much money have you been getting from Americans ??? We the people will not do it any more !!! You got nothing we need !!! Wait for tolls for using our high \nWays !!! So keep talking smack !!! No welfare for Canada !!!

Please don't skip presidential talks only because it's in a different language. I mean you can still translate it or put subtitles for the people who don't understand it.

People aren’t even talking about tourism because it’s not directly hit by tariffs. Over 20 billion dollars in 2024 spent by Canadians in the US for travel. Tons of people already cancelled any trips to the US to boycott. If even 10% less people go to US this year, upwards of 2 billion in tourism $ is gone , and roughly 14000 jobs estimated. \n\nImagine what else could be affected

People never learn from CNN and woke leftist sweet talking. It just sweet talking while your country inflation make you poor?

Level-headed, measured, amicable, educated, a real leader and statesman. Talking to an orange baffoon. I only disgree with Trudeau in one thing. Trump does dumb things cause he is actually dumb. And seeing that he is insulting people and allies left and right I personally would love for other leaders inventing fitting names for him paying him back in kind. Someone came up with Mango Mussolini, I had until now favored Orange Utan, but the Mango version is appealing. And lets face it, Trump's cabinet of circus freaks also literally begs to be ridiculed.

And this is why I do not follow CNN. This came up in my feed, and I wanted to hear what Trudeau had to say. And I wanted to hear him speak in French. But no, you booger globs must think that there are no people in America who speak French, and no people in America who would like to hear him speak French. You are part of the problem, CNN. And then to hear this woman say what she says after that talk is just appalling to me. Lady, you are a turncoat. You do not have your ethics and morals in place. Anti-American? Anti-American? Is that what you got from this? Where is your dance cap!? Get it together. My god, what a disgrace, CNN. This is junk media. Infotainment.

He talks like people are stupid maybe Canadians are. i don't know but he is slow

Now that’s how you talk to the people! He provided all the facts on the situation followed by the solutions. I felt every word he said. Outstanding representation of a leader.

I guess he doesn't understand to make a deal it takes two why wouldn't Trump talk to Putin people are f****** stupid...

Trumps own words, “Vote for me, you will never have to vote again!” \nThis one is showing up on several pages. Make up your own mind. \nThere is something rancid in America, a slow, creeping rot that smells like cold McDonald’s fries, aerosol hairspray, and the unmistakable musk of a country too sedated to recognize its own hostage situation. For years, the idea that Donald Trump was compromised by Russia was dismissed as paranoid fantasy—just another wild-eyed conspiracy theory, another overblown headline in the endless saga of American political dysfunction. \nBut now, two former Soviet intelligence officers—Alnur Mussayev and Yuri Shvets—are saying it outright: Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987, groomed as an asset, and remains under Russian control to this day. \nAnd the worst part? He’s already back in the White House. \nThat’s right, America. You did it. You walked face-first into the banana peel of history, slipped, and fell straight into the arms of Vladimir Putin. Trump was kicked out in 2020, spent four years plotting his comeback, and now he’s returned, like a bloated, orange cockroach that just won’t die. The Kremlin’s favorite stooge is running the country again, and this time, he knows exactly how to stay in power. \nIf you think this is just another round of the Trump Show, you’re not paying attention. This isn’t politics anymore. This is treason. This is foreign subversion. This is a God forsaken coup in slow motion. \nLet’s break it down, nice and simple. \nAlnur Mussayev isn’t some Twitter conspiracy theorist with a tinfoil hat and a podcast. He’s the former head of Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, which means he knows exactly how Russian intelligence works—because he was part of the system. And what he’s saying should make every American’s blood run cold. \nAccording to Mussayev, Trump was identified, recruited, and compromised by the KGB in 1987 during his first trip to Moscow. They saw him for what he was: a narcissistic, greedy, attention-starved buffoon who could be easily manipulated. The KGB flattered him, promised him business deals, and planted the seeds of political ambition in his empty little head. And from that moment on, he was their man. \nBut Mussayev isn’t alone. Former KGB major Yuri Shvets said the exact same thing in 2021: Trump was cultivated by Soviet intelligence because he was an easy mark—too stupid to realize he was being played, too egotistical to care. They saw him as a useful idiot—a man who could one day be nudged into power, a walking, talking Trojan Horse for Russian interests. \nAnd now? The plan has worked. Trump spent four years in office weakening America from within, got booted out, and now he’s back for round two. \nIf you had told the American public in 1962 that a Soviet-backed asset would one day sit in the White House, they would have burned Washington to the ground before letting it happen. But today? Nobody seems to care. \nThe media treats this like just another wacky subplot in the never-ending Trump reality show. Congress is too busy fighting over meaningless culture war nonsense to do anything about it. And the American public? Exhausted. Numb. Checked out. Years of scandals—Russia collusion, Ukraine blackmail, classified documents, tax fraud, sexual assault, an attempted coup—have fried the country’s brain like an overcooked steak at Mar-a-Lago. \nTrump has done the impossible. He has committed so many crimes, so openly, so brazenly, that none of them matter anymore. \nAnd now, with Mussayev’s revelation that Trump is an active foreign asset, we have finally reached the point where the biggest political scandal in American history is met with a collective shrug. \nThis is how democracy dies—not with a bang, but with a goddamn eye-roll. \nThis is the part where the skeptics start clutching their pearls. “Oh, come on,” they say. “If Trump were really a Russian asset, wouldn’t there be more proof?” \nTo which I say: Are you blind, or just willfully stupid? \nLet’s go through the evidence, shall we? \nTrump spent his entire first term doing exactly what Russia wanted. He attacked NATO, calling it “obsolete” and threatening to pull the U.S. out. He tried to blackmail Ukraine into manufacturing dirt on Joe Biden, because weakening Ukraine helps one man and one man only: Vladimir Putin. He pulled U.S. troops out of Syria, handing power over to Russian forces. He picked fights with Canada and Europe while cozying up to dictators. \nEven now, in his second term, he is more openly pro-Putin than ever. He has made it clear that he will not protect NATO allies from Russian aggression. He is actively dismantling America’s alliances, just as Russia planned. And while Americans scream at each other over whether Target should sell rainbow t-shirts, Trump is quietly selling the country to the Kremlin. \nAt some point, you have to stop calling it a coincidence and start calling it what it is: treason. \nThe United States is running out of time. If Trump serves out this term without being removed, America as a functioning democracy is finished. \nThe media needs to wake up. Enough with the “Trump fatigue” excuse. This is not just another scandal—this is the single greatest infiltration of American power in history. Journalists need to dig into Mussayev’s claims, demand declassification of intelligence files, and treat this like the national emergency that it is. \nCongress needs to subpoena Mussayev immediately. His testimony must be public, and every document he has should be reviewed. If there is proof that Trump has been compromised since the 1980s, the American people need to know. \nThe Justice Department needs to stop pretending that Trump is just another politician. If there is evidence that the sitting president of the United States is working in Russia’s interests, he must be removed from office and prosecuted for espionage. \nAnd the American public? You have one last chance. This is not about Republican vs. Democrat. This is not about taxes, gas prices, or whatever nonsense outrage is dominating the news today. This is about whether the United States remains a sovereign nation, or if we spend the rest of the century as a Russian client state with a golf course. \nThe sheer volume of Trump's corruption, the blatant nature of his crimes, the mountain of evidence that should have ended his political career a hundred times over—none of it mattered. He survived it all, not because he was innocent, but because he drowned the country in so much scandal that nothing stuck. \nBut this time, it’s different. If Mussayev and Shvets are right, this isn’t just another chapter in the endless Trump circus. This is the culmination of a decades-long Russian intelligence operation to install an asset in the White House. \nThere is no coming back from this. If America lets Trump serve out this term without removing him, then the United States as a democratic republic is finished. The country won’t collapse overnight. There won’t be tanks in the streets. Instead, the destruction of democracy will happen in slow motion—buried under lawsuits, propaganda, and corruption so blatant that people stop caring. \nIf America lets this happen—if Trump is allowed to complete his mission—then Putin wins. The West crumbles. And the people who could have stopped it will look back, years from now, and wonder how they let it happen. \nGood night, and good luck. Because if people don’t wake up, America is going to sleepwalk straight into its own funeral.

No weaving shit into the zone or some other flood of logorhoea... this is how people with a brain talk

I am wondering if Fox is gonna show this speech, and how about Newsmax and, the other one that I right now don't remember, I really hope the Americans who voted for trump see how a real leader talks and behaves and I also hope that people realize that this president is hurting every single American Citizen, these tariffs will not help our country it will make it so much harder for every person in The USA to make a decent living. Please don't forget about this NOT NOW NOT EVER.

Who’s ever on Ukraine or Canada or even Mexico side but lives in America!!\nLEAVE!!\nI bet you won’t go fight the Ukrainian war,\nI bet you won’t leave America to live in Canada or Mexico!\n So the people that live in America that is talking all this trash your opinion don’t mean shit if your actions are not backing up what you’re saying!! \nWe Americans want America first!!

It's hilarious that so many people think speech means anything.. \nOh, did you write Trump a nasty letter? Oh no whatever will Trump do? \nIt sucks being a Democrat these days. (To be clear, I am a Democrat who is very disappointed with Democrats who do nothing and think that talking is going to do anything)

If Putin is a murder? Then so is America? So is Ukraine? So is Palestine? So is Israel? In the 1990 Middle Eastern war USA ? tried so diligently to destroy the WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION!! ?? killing so many innocent people calling them terrorists. What do we call this action? GODLY ? Everyone is trying to show their power through Global Politics that they are greater than others and trying to rule every country in this world before fixing their own. Trudeau has brought Canada to poverty in his so called successful 2 terms government. He should think before he talks or like Hitler he should rehearse his speech in front of a mirror before opening his mouth in public, it's a whole lot of crap coming out in public and losing his sane ability. ?

People talking about a war are out of their mind. You would be against Canada, Mexico, AND HALF YOUR NEIGHBORS!!! ??? Trumps favorite people ( the uneducated) gonna be pissed when their food stamps and medical coverage disappear

Donald will never understand that this is how adults talk. Dumpy Don is a vulgarian, a traitor to his country, and a Russian asset. We the American People are so very screwed. The stock market is plunging. Inflation is up. This is what Dumpy Don has given us. Are we winning yet?

Canada has done nothing but put out propaganda. Canada is a Liberal country that interferes with our elections. Now if I want to know how to adjust my fake eyebrows or how to talk tough while having a small population and only one neighbor that happens to be an ally and the world's super power then I'll ask Trudeau and the Canadians for their input. In the meantime, their people don't work and the Canadians depend on us for their rights to the sea since they don't spend much on defense. America will win. Canada won't exist without America.

Canada ?? don't want to unite bad talk I never see an item that reads made in Canada stop it or your fired killing our people with fetnal

Governor Trudeau is talking tough in the final days of his failed regime. Let's not forget governor that you pee'd your pants in front the Canadian people on the world stage in the face of President Trump and then followed up resigning!

Why didn’t you do this before the threats of tariffs. Makes no sense. You’ve been in charge for years. Yet only last week did you appoint people to stop the issues that are the talking points. It’s all BS. You’re a clown. A Neo con clown

People like double talk and bullshit listening to this moron they will lose hands down, listening to this shit makes me laugh dragging down America to there benefit go efff off Canada.

Donald Trump made Trudeau a man. Finally he talks like a man not a woke who insisted to say people kind instead of mankind.

All you stupid people (on the news)talking about how bad it is, but you won't admit that you vored him in!! Rich entitled morons

Wow - what a speech.\nNever heard it before in such a manner from a politican.\nI have to say this as a german.\nWish we had in germany someone who speaks clear facts and talks directly to the people.\nAdmiring that he also speaks directly to Trump - in clear words.\nMuch respect to Canada.\nStanding with you ❤️.\n\nHopefully wars will end immediately.\nPeace worldwide.

Why is the governor of Canada talking to the American people ????\nAnother Zelensky.

The only way to achieve peace is by getting both sides to the table. You're not freaked out about people talking to Hamas... Why are you so worried about a world leader who is trying to achieve peace talking to Putin? Because, as bad as he is, he's not as bad as Hamas...

We do not need any Canadian products. Tariffs will work, we have natural resources gas, oil, minerals. do not need you. Critical minerals. that's a joke. We have all the fertilizer we need. So I am not sure what he is talking about. Its time to bring the auto makers home, Its time to bring all our jobs back home. The canadians are tired of him as well and he is out in October and the conservative party will win just like in the US. People are tired of the left agenda.

On the outside we are made to believe such things but I know behind the scenes things are different. What have you done to your own people? No one is perfect and no one party either demo or repubs, there are going to be good and bad. I just want more good vs the bad. Why are you talking about America, worry about Canada.

You talking about; they standing strong. That just sounds like a bunch of cock a doodle doo... Any country could whoop Canada without the United States back in Canada sorry ass up... What most people don't know is that Canada's sided with the South in the civil war

Lmaoo his country going under and he is trying to “speak to the american people” bruh go fix your country dont talk down to us

Donald is not smart, he's a dumb shit. Why do people keep talking nice to him or about him? He's an uneducated todler that got everything he has from his daddy. History will show that he was bankrupt in 2015. All this is happening because a felon tried to stay out of jail. And he was willing to sell everything in the world to whomever in the world, just to stay out of jail. Same with Elon Musk, it was getting harder and harder to sell fantasy technology to people. So why not buy a felon, and destroy USA for Chinesse and Russian money?

People in the comments are stupid. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Governor Trudeau just screwed Canada

Half truths. The fent as well as illegals don't cross those borders hes talking about. The smugglers know the weak points of that 4,000 mile stretch. This is like a little league player challenging Jordan. They Need Us. We are finally taking advantage of all economic streams as we should. The Taxpayers deserve a break. Subsidize our people with the money we send abroad and grow our economy, it's our money.

Prime Minister Trudeau, thank you for showing the world how a true gentleman and leader talks to the leaders of another country in spite of the irrational, immoral and turncoat actions from a former Ally; our (?) new MAGA President Donald Trump. It's so surreal that this narcissistic, psychopathic person actually won the Presidential election (again). All I can say is I am sorry, embarrassed, and ashamed of my broken country's politicians in Washington, D.C. at present. Many more Americans support the democratic policies than the anti-democratic that Trump's regime is spouting all around the world. Just know this isn't what most Americans believe and we don't support his thoughts and actions. We are trapped in this nightmare that makes no sense. We hope this is just a temporary change. These new policies benefit no one but the oligarchs of America (and world). I guess we are just going to have to take our punishment for the few years for not being able to prove that these people in Washington care NOTHING for anyone, including their own constituent, and are hell bent on taking down and destroying our American, Democratic way of life and we, the people, are helpless to stopping it dissolve and crumble. Thank you Canada for always being such great neighbors. Good luck, peace out!

I guess we have to get used to living with rapist and child molesters getting whatever they want. Since Trump literally got the sex offender brothers in the country so they skip out on justice just like Donnie got to do. That's the country we live in. A country where literally rapist and child molesters are granted safe passage and decent people with integrity are talked to like criminals. It's absolutely shameful to be an American

Mr Trudeau, trump talking about Fentanol is a lie, simply take a look, if that drug is so dangerous, why in China ?? there is nothing noticed about that Fentanol, no drugs records, no drugged chinese people on streets, like in usa drugged nation .. \nusa is deadly scared of Chinese ?? development .. so please take proper side of that usa BS ..
