Spoke well, with genuineness, to Canadians, to Americans, to Donald Trump, and was articulate, with no punches pulled. Great speech. \nWe get the big BOI here in America.....to those who voted for him, is this what you wanted? It'll get worse, no doubt, so I hope you are still so proud at the end of this administration....if it ends.

What a great way to get back at the Trump Administration…Tax Canadians, smh.\nTrudeau and all other showboating Canadian politicians are complete FOOLS.

I‘m German and European, and stand with Ukraine, Canada, Mexico. This Trump administration is mentally sick. Psychopaths.

Stay strong Canada! Trump is starring in the movie Canadian Bacon. \nWe the people need to stand against trumps and his fascist administration and the traitorous republican legislators!

I’m an American. I admire Canada as an Ally and neighbor. I can’t imagine a better international neighbor to have. The people there are kind and strong. The Trump administration is single-handedly trying to tear down alliances. To what end? Most likely self enrichment. I’m hoping for a normalization of relations as soon as possible. I don’t want a trade war, or any kind of war with Canada. ?? ??

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, thank you. The Trump administration is so mental ill.

America's president is a low functioning narcissistic sociopath His tool box consist of threats blackmail bribery corruption as a kelptocradic dictionary ragiem His hostile takeover of America's country and economy unstableld security and alliances Are Acts that, mimicking Russian authorityen governing system Trump is a threat to Americans Faith honor dignity ethics and Life's desires He spoke of a GRATE country And it's betterment. His actions show the opposite He HASE made a path to collapse Are economy and prosperity stole the county's Treasury and perralized Americans democracy. He's threats blackmail and corrupt fraudulent methods HASE isolation of America's country from Are allies and befriend and give comfort to ARE ENAMEYS. This is not in the interest of America's country stop Trump's treasonous administration.

They're all calling his bluff. It's over. Trumps administration is over. He has no power. It's Musk who's the president.

Has everyone forgot that during Trumps first term HE signed the biggest and best trade deal that anyone’s ever seen ( in his words ) with Mexico and Canada? He sat right in front of cameras and did it , and as usual showed off his fantastic signature. THAT trade deal was NEVER changed, even thru the last 4 years administration. But all of a sudden Trump walks in mouthing about it, blaming everyone else for it, and ready to change things? Why? What’s the issue? Let me guess… does he not remember doing that either?

Some of us in America are appalled at this behavior, I am so sorry! Trump and his administration are an embarrassment to us as well!

America ?? under Trump administration is doomed.

Trump's doing this to tank the stock market. Buy low, sell high, start reporting on administration members and the stock they currently may be buying up. He will gleefully watch regular Americans suffer so he can make money. Anyone that think he cares about them is delusional.

In the 21st century, the act of war definition has changed, if we are still looking at 19th and 20th century definitions then act of war by which you mean a nation declare its enemy and start war by means of army to destroy the enemy and conqure the enemy nation with territorial gain. Now all this economic tarriffis are new tool and similar to old act of war against a nation with a mean to destroy and annihillate their economy to acquire them as 51st state at the end. The Canadians are rightly perceiving this threat and rightly angry and disappointed in USA aggression under Trump administration. God help and save Canada, ?

As an American, I do not at all blame Canada’s response to trump’s irresponsible and embarrassing behavior. I know this will affect me, but I side with Canada completely. I just hope these next 4 years pass quickly and we can get a more reasonable administration into power.

Sadly this can all be fixed, just rise up and impeach Trump again. Attacking your friends and allies is morally corrupt, but it’s not surprising when watching all the Trump administrations rhetoric on everything else they are tearing down and risking and costing our US friends on all fronts. As a Canadian, I will not be going back to the US until this President and this disgusting rhetoric is gone.

Kick Trumps ass out of town! I’m an American and I’m extremely angry with this administration and I want you to show him who’s boss!!! ❤️❤️❤️???\nTurn the electricity off!

Please do not categorize Americans with trump administration the smart sane Americans never agree with Trump the biggest shit show in the world

Someone needs to ask the Trump regime why fentanal is on the list of multiple drugs that was sent to the Trump administration during his first term! Donold Trump and Elon Musk both need to be drug tested.

I am an American but I stand with Canada. The Trump administration is destroying our country. We the people need to take our country back.

I have nothing but the up most respect for all of Canada....Trump and his goons are destroying the US democracy. My heart is so heavy. Trump needs to go along with his whole administration!!! They are destroying us!!!

Americans should be VERY ASHAMED AND DISGUSTED for voting Donald Duck Trump and his crony administration.

Cheers to Gen. Wesley Clark from Canada who is telling you like it is, underlining the security risk Trump and his administration pose to us all.

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau. Unfortunately Donald Trump will destroy the US. Canada will grow stronger without US. It is regrettable that the current Trump administration is destroying the strong relationships between US with Mexico, Canada, Europe, UK, China, Middle East and Africa. Canada will always stand for democracy, freedom and justice even if this current administration refuses to do so. US and Canada has fought WWI, WWII, Korean war, Vietnam war, Iraq war, Afghanistan war together. As brothers in arms both have fought, bleed together against fascism. What Donald is doing in the US is as close as it gets to fascism in America. During this difficult time in American history more than ever America needs to trust in God. God bless America land of the free home of the brave. Let's pray that God will intervene through prayer to bring America to depend on Him once more.

Throw Trump out!!! Biden wasn’t perfect, but this administration is devolving into chaos!?

Wow this Trump administration is as bad as expected smh Living up to the dread warned

What does the Trump administration do to stop the flow of Fentanyl into Canada? Surely it is not a one-way flow.

I’m glad he spoke to the American people people again, it’s important they have the truth said from others besides the American Democratic Party; the Trump base are constantly constantly being lied to and gas lit by that administration and Republican Elected Officials :

America's economy was a juggernaut the day before Trump and his greedy band of thieves took over, and our strength was in our alliances with Canada, Mexico, and Europe. Our moral strength was in our unwavering support of Ukraine and opposition to Russia. In barely a month Trump has undermined and destroyed all the trust previous administrations (aside from his own) had built. By trying to rob our allies blind and turn the US into a kleptocracy, Trump is destroying the economy and our standing in the world at record pace. Maybe irreversibly.

Reading as much as I could of the comments below, it is with great respect that we as human can still care for one another even when we are from different countries, continents, backgrounds an so one. Evil will always try to do it's thing and we must come together to abolish it. Being from different countries in this situation is not much we can do. Maybe stop importing from America, at least till this administration is gone in 4 years. The way it's going , America will lose a lot of it's allies and unless tyranny and dictatorship follows, we will vote the so called politicians out of office and claim our rights to a better way of life. Because now, America suffers and other countries will follow. And it is just the beginning. Learn how to become stronger and don't vote for convicted felon that is doing Russia's bid. Not sure how the followers can say with a straight face that what Trump is doing is for the betterment of our country . God bless us all.

As an American, I would like to thank PM Trudeau for taking a stand against the trump administration.

Less than two months this is chaotic. Tdumps Presidency is going to be 4 yrs of chaos. If you think his first term was chaotic in the way his administration handled the Covid-19 epidemic even when he initiated increase on tariffs with imports on aluminum and Steel. Canada answered. Americans seem to conveniently forget the job losses in the states due to Trump's tarriffs during his 1st term. They voted him in based on the inflation of prices and immigration. But the prices are still high and will go higher

This is Trump's version of The Wizard of Oz. Fentanyl was NEVER the issue. Why would an administration BENT on ruining federal workers' livelihood, cutting off food to the global poor via cruel reductions in USAid, gutting Medicaid show ANY concern for drug-related deaths?\n\nAstute author Naomi Klein (from Canada) coined the terminology of The Shock Doctrine. THAT is what's being done, but this time, instead of it being aimed at Middle East nations, it is hitting the U.S and its neighbors.\n\nShame on the fools pretending to be leaders, fools that our supreme court should have prevented from EVER holding office. SHAME!

Europe is close to Canada! Trump administration is a complete disaster. Wake up, USA!

The pace at which the trump administration is dismantling USA leadership is startling.

As a US citizen, I apologize on behalf of this corrupt administration. I certainly didn't vote for the ??, and I'm not sure how anyone could have... yet, here we are. Half of the US certainly deserves it, and I fully understand the need for extreme measures at this point. What he did to Zelenskyy and what he is doing to our allies...yall do what ya gotta do. Half of us are rooting for Canada, Ukraine, and our allies. Idk what's wrong with the other half, but its shameful to say the least. It was never about fentanyl. Trump doesn't give half of a fuck if people die from fentanyl or otherwise.

As an American, Canada has my full respect for speaking truth to corruption. The Trump administration is a cancer on the face of the earth.

A lot of us Americans don't agree with what the Trump administration is doing.

The USA are the most unreliable country in the world at the moment. That’s what we think here in Europe. And we fear that the worst is yet to come during trump’s administration. We do hope that the mid term elections will block his power. But they are far away

Good on Canada. Trump is a traitor, as is Vance and the entire Administration. Americans are deeply embarrassed by the harm Trump is doing to the United States and the world. We do NOT stand with Trump and never, ever will.

US citizens, please do not divert your attention from where your primary attention should be and that is the Trump Administrations appeasement policies towards Russia. A 180 degree turn from opposing Russia to supporting Russia’s invasion of a sovereign diplomatically elected country. Canadians please do not direct your anger towards Americans who DO NOT support draft dodging Trump. US citizens will continue to support you and rid our country of this scourge!

Democrat strategy, silence and wait for the chaos and dust to settle, and then wait for the Trump Administration to collapse under the weight of its own incompetence. Brilliant. ?

Trump & his administration, including Musk, are TRAITORS!! Please know that half of American voters did NOT vote for this traitor. We, non-Trump Americans, are NOT in agreement with this traitor. We stand with Canada & our other allies! “Hate” is not near a strong enough word to describe how we feel about these traitors’ actions!!!

Another gang is going to attack the Capitol, then I want to see if Trump forgives them like he did with the other criminals who beat and killed police officers, and this administration is a joke, I've never seen an aide to the president of America with a chainsaw in his hand. Salute Canada and the Americans who are with democracy

Trump is a bullshiter, fentanyl is just a pretext, his whole administration is a catastrophy for US and the free world.

We TRUE American patriots don’t want the diaper dons BS either, Mr.Trudeau ?\n\nThis will NOT end well for the Trump administration and his lackeys. COUNT ON IT

I stand with Canada, Trump and Vance think they have our support, but thats just all the Russian bots talking. No way I'm fighting for Trumps administration!

We told these damn MAGA’S this was going to happen !! ???? The Trump administration !!

It makes perfect sense, he is setting the stage to install puppet leaders. Erode trust in the current administration of these countries to a point where people do anything to get things back to normal, and then offer an alternative, whose values all aligned with trumps

Trump and his administration are destroying America. Stand up and fight back. The American people have the power, you just have to do it.

I dont follow canadian politics. (Us politics either)... I hate trump. His administration maga. Hes a racist and a bigot and ignorant and dumb as a stick. \n\nNot sure why Justin Trudeau is so disliked. \n\nHe serms reasonable to me. Id stand behind Trudeau before i stood with trump. \n\nFDJT
