I think the whole Eu stand behind u Canada, and let's make a bigger trade and let Usa stand by itself. And it's a sad day for the people of US. Because soon Usa will be alone because no one can trust that country leadership anymore.

Tears just listening to this. Grandma worked as a secretary on Parliament hill for years. Hanna Cornelia Paterson. She absolutely adored Justin as a child. I have clips from newspapers going way back. She always cut Justin's photos out to send to us and we lived far away in the Caribbean. This is world leadership from generation to generation.

I want to move to Canada. Australia lacks leadership—we truly need a leader like Justin Trudeau.

Only a fool causes a trade war with Canadian over sych foolish issues. I apologize Canada for my government's actions. I applaud Trudeau's strong example of what real leadership looks like.

Canadian from Alberta here. I'm very impressed by our Prime Minister today. He was speaking intelligently, firm, and showed great leadership. Way to go Justin, you showed Trump how a person in a leadership role should conduct himself.

Where are our past presidents? PResident OBama? PResident CLinton? President BIden? PResident BUsh? They still garner the title President. We need their collective wisdom and non-partisan leadership to intercess and stand up to the TREASONOUS machinations of Trump. OUR DEMOCRACY IS IN PERIL….Canada is our friend and confidant. TRUMP IS GUILTY OF TREASON! He is single handedly dismantling decades of peace, goodwill, friiendship and above all SAFETY with our French Canadian neighbors. America is in serious trouble. CNN a you have a responsibility to use your far reaching platform to seek out the opiNions and diplomatic aid of our surviving better presidents. They possess the hardwon wisdom and experience to engage with world leaders and our senators…..\nPlease take a stand. These are scary moments. TRUMP IS GUILTY OF TREASON!\nHELP! SOS! ⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓

Interesting...the rest of the worlds leadership doesn't choose to host Jerry Springer type sh*t shows for press conferences?

It's out of Americans hands. This is a leadership war and they won't notice the price of anything.

Prime Minister Trudeau, as an American i thank you for your speech and leadership.

Trudeau schooled the leadership of the US?

I'm so sorry my country's leadership are being such buttheads right now. I dont want this either Canadians.

This is what leadership looks like.

I am just curious. Why do I only see other countries leadership complaining about the tariffs? I don't see President Trump holding a press conference to stop tariffs.

As an American, I stand with Canada and Mexico but not Russia . Prime Minister Trudeau has demonstrated true leadership qualities. If the U.S. has trade issues with Canada and Mexico, they should be resolved amicably. What Trump is doing is not the approach of a smart leader—he is risking the livelihoods of millions of Americans

WOW!!! What a calm, measured response toward an incredibly ridiculous situation. This is what leadership looks like!!! Thank you Canada for standing up to this bully! We'll weather this shit storm together. Thank you for being our kind, thoughtful, compassionate, patient, AND polite neighbors + friends. We LOVE you!!!

MY! MY! MY! WHEN! WILL WE UNDERSTAND! THAT WE! HAVE A ORANGE MONSTER! RUNNING RAPIDLY TO MAKE US ALL SUFFER! IN FACT WE ARE UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF A CULT! LEADER. I AM GETTING THE F OUTTA AMERICA! ( BORN! HERE IN THE UNITED STATES) THIS IS NOW! THE REAL! SH!T HOLE, OH! And NOW! HE! WANTS TO REPLACE OF THE $100 BIILL WITH HIS! FACE! ( IF THIS HAPPENS! I PROMISE TO GOD! WILL NEVER! EVER! TOUCH IT OR! CIRCULATE IT.

This is how a Statesman speaks and behaves. Congratulations Canada on your leadership.

As an American, I am embarrassed by our leadership. Presidents like Trudeau and Zelensky are men to look up to. They may not be perfect, but they remain strong and confident in the face of the tyranny of Trump and Putin. I live an hour from the Canadian border, and they have been nothing but kind and amazing every time I've ever visited. My support is with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. It is a dark and embarrassing time to be an American.

The U.S. has zero credibility with it's historical allies right now. No country or it's leadership can take the U.S. at it's word in any treaties or trade deals with Donald Trump at the helm. His word is completely useless. It is pointless to enter into any kind of an agreement with the U.S. under the current administration.

Why can’t we have normal leadership like this.

True Leadership.

From Brazil; Seems like Trudeau never disappoints, what a amazing speech and leadership

This is what good leadership looks like. ??

This is the type of speech hard to listen to, the type of speech you need to give to a country about to go war, make no mystake, thats what this is, and this is also the type of speech that shows who is and who is not fit for leadership, Trudeau you made mistakes when you were younger, but who didnt, but you sure matured to be a leader who can make people follow you from youre words alone, im glad we have a president in south america with such caracther on the side of reason and peace, with all the doomlike scenarios i conjure from seeying Trump pulling the USA to side with Russia and only imagine russia joining nazi germany just to get also screwed as soon as russia gets the chance and trump is clueless about it, youre speech eased my mind a bit, thank you and thank you to all the people of Canada

“I won’t sugarcoat it”… I wish I was Canadian & had that leadership?

It's difficult working with a Dtrumpster who behaves like a toddler....Thank YOU Mr. Trudeau for your brilliant leadership!

As an Australian I stand with Canada as a British Commonwealth nation and a respected ally. Trump wants to mark his leadership as the “Greatest US president” by annexing Canada and Mexico. This is USA risking WWIII to enrich Trump and his sycophants with oil, minerals and weapons sale.

Real Leadership

We here in the US stand with Canada, Mexico, the UK, and Europe! I am so embarrassed by our current leadership. Je suis tellement gênée par notre president et tous les gens qui le suivent.

This is the best job you've done during your leadership, Justin. It's too little too late, but thank you.

I am an American and I fully support Canada in this. Our leadership here is broken.

I’m with you Canada. I’m an American, but I do not agree with our present leadership. They are absolutely horrible.\n\nWay to stand strong Canada \n????

As a Brit, I admire the leadership of Canada! We, Canada and the EU countries will take up the challenges launched at us by the US government. Americans like Russians are no longer welcome in Britain and Europe.

Thoughtful leadership, hold the orange felons feet to the fire, it is scary living in the United States currently, hopefully you will take US citizens as refuges if things get as bad as Nazi Germany.

What the f**k is wrong with our US leadership! I am soooo ashamed of our current leadership. This is awful! I love Canada!!!

This is how leadership sounds.

could you imagine what the men of your country will become when the leadership of your country is as soft as this man. No thanks Canada. This guy has sabotaged your country

From Australia I am in awe of Trudeau’s leadership and courage. We can never let a tyrant tip the scales of democracy.

Very well spoken and INTELLIGENT.....180 difference compared to our leadership....

He's fantastic...THIS is what a TRUE leader looks like MAGA...he inspires his citizens to work together and that's what makes their country GREAT.\nDonald Trump has purposefully worked towards dividing American citizens from day ONE, for the simple reason of his GREED for money and lust for power, and it's laughable that his slogan is 'make America great again' because anyone with a moderately functioning brain, knows that an extremely divisive country will NEVER be 'great'.\nHell...with trump as your leader...you're barely even functioning thus far, after his 'leadership' of a few weeks. God help you all after a few months, or YEARS!! What a FOOL.

But here in the US, our leadership will try and try to ruin us taxpaying citizens. They want us begging.

Shameful time to be an American. I can’t believe we’re on Russia, North Korea, and China side now. We need Canada’s leadership along with the UK and EU. The free world is depending on you guys now. We’ve got a cancer within

So Canadian housing and economy is in the toilet, Canada restricts our mineral and energy rights consistently, Canada and Europe supports a NATO caused war, and America is insane? The same guy that Canadiens voted out, is being praised for his leadership?

Wow!! American here. Refreshing to see real leadership. Absolutely disgusted with my piece of crap president and his little pet JD Vance. Never in my 48 years did I think I would see the day our president craps all over our allies. Worse yet, never thought I would have a president that is selling our country and our allies out to Russia. Pray in the American people stand up and say enough is enough

10X more respect for you than our leadership

Thank you to my PM Trudeau! This is the leadership we need!

We should not allow a foreigner to undermind our Govt. Canada has been in recession since last year under Trudeau’s leadership.

Why can’t we have responsible leaders like this? My apologies Canadians, I didn’t vote for the current US leadership.

Kind of makes me want to be a Canadian after hearing this. Our reality show president has not one ounce of class compared to Canada’s leadership.

This is what leadership looks and sounds like.\n\nIn contrast, we have the Orange Toddler.
