Trudeau speaks of what Trump has done to his people...Well Trudeau killed our Country. Cant wait until he is gone

Trudeau is so well spoken. Canada is lucky to have him...Sorry for all this bullshit cause by people that shouldn't be in power.

I'm ashamed to say that our president is an absolute traitor to our allies and to its people. Somehow his cult followers were able to get him back into office instead of prison. Now all of us are having to suffer please do not lose faith we will figure out a way to get rid of the Trump regime once and for all as well as Elon Musk were so sorry about what they've done there will be payback for them for many levels just know that the United States people love Canada always have always will one of our greatest allies and our good neighbor. Sorry about Donald Trump he's a prick

I’m an American as well. And I’m with Canada 10000% we the people in the US (most of us) stand with y’all. What the current administration is doing with this country is truly shameful. And I as an American apologize in behalf of our government. May god bless all of us.

Trump and Putin are cut from the same cloth - bullies that think by strong arming people, counties they will submit - not anymore the world sees you and is not taking this ? anymore - on a global level we need to show the bullies of the world that we will stand together in eradicating this kind of behaviour for good and let this be a future warning to any leaders who act in the same way Putin and Trump are acting now. Well done Canada ??

Great speech by Trudeau (other than one point: about the Orange Sphincter being a smart guy). Trudeau was authentic and eloquent and very angry. Good for Trudeau for articulating so well what so many people think, and what needs to be said. The Orange Sphincter can barely string 2 coherent words together. YAAAAAY TRUDEAU ??

People complimenting this guy:\n\nCost of Living & Housing Crisis: Housing affordability has worsened, with home prices and rent skyrocketing.\nInflation & Debt: Canada's inflation rate has been a major issue, and national debt has significantly increased. \nHow much you say: \n\nHousing Affordability\n\nHome Prices: The average house price in Canada increased from approximately CAD 466,000 in 2015 to around CAD 723,600 in December 2024, marking a rise of about 55%. \n\nRent Prices: The rental price index rose from 100 in 2015 to 124.9 in Q4 2023, indicating a 24.9% increase over this period. ??? you people are idiots. He speaks so well ???

Well, he gave a good speech to his Canadian about support from his country. I hope you can meet with his people needs. Unlike our president, the best he could say was we’re going feel some pain. What he really meant to say was the poor and the middle class are going to suffer..

You know I’ve been killing myself working non stop for like a decade trying to hold it all together because of all the increased prices of everything. As a result I have not been paying attention. I know the tariff thing was happening, but didn’t know why this was a thing. \n\nShame on me for not being more up to date. \n\nI also know nothing about Trudeau or his political stance on literally anything aside from what he talked about in this video. \n\nI must say this was of speaking is EXACTLY what I expect from a world leader. Everything was delivered very well and without personal emotions. He’s not going off the cuff and saying whatever pops into his head. THIS is the exact style of communication we need from world leaders. I don’t see how it helps anyone, anywhere in the world to have people in control of nuclear armed nations to be shooting from the hip with communication.

To the Canadian people: I will look out and specifically purchase Canadian goods over American goods as a sign of disagreement with the American President. Mr. Trump is only out for HIMSELF! Most Americans know this. I don't believe in conspiracy theories, but I'm starting to believe that Russia DID interfere with our election, and Trump is that result! I'm utterly DISGUSTED with what they're doing. I stand with UKRAINE ?? and with Canada ?? as well as all our Allies! We need to impeach that Maggat in the Oval!

Mr Trudeau - you are 100 % right .... I have been a citizen of the USA for my entire life of 67 years.... now I really wish that I was born in CANADA where people are compassionate and not in it ONLY for power and money. I am embarrassed to that I am a citizen of the USA (WELL... THERE'S A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING !).

These tariffs are about the US consumer to pay more for everything in order for Dump to recover money from working people to give tax cuts to the rich, nothing else. His lame excuse/lie that it's about fentanyl on the Canadian border is well known by people with commonsense. Let's see how long Dumps supporters will keep believing him when they along with every other American are getting it up the ass in inflation, of which Dump lied he would take care of from day 1. Just today, 1st day of tariffs, gas went from $2.55 to $3.09 in NM Buckle up folks!!!

Definitely don't agree with his buddy buddy with putin that's some bullshit he's an idiot for that one. However this is how it's gonna be. We suffer from taxes and crap keeping us down. We the people want tariffs to return our country back to the funding source it once had. We don't need your shit it just costs us more to make it here. You were just our cheapy ticket. A non tariff threat is broad but best beleive it better not be no threat of violence. Well turn your Geneva convention and turn it to a whole Geneva Wikipedia.

I am embarrassed to be Canadian. Trump is doing everything and anything to make America and the American people better. He is not responsible for canada. All we do here is whine and get into a well if you do this we're gonna do that pissing contest. Instead of us here in Canada doing anything to make Canada stronger and us not reliant on handouts. We got that little brother syndrome where we wanna be like big brother but don't have any power

You people in America aren't sorry about what's happening fake woke in these comments, you people know full well what you were voting for, a racist degenerate white man in Trump..

Okay okay Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau, you have got my respect back as I see where your loyalty lays and that is with Canada. Well done sir and well articulated. I have never been so disgusted in a leader as I am with Trump and his people including his goofball sidekick.

As an American Donald Trump was a mistake. It's time for the American people to wake up and admit their mistakes. An inflated ego is not good. My fellow American we don't want a president with an inflated ego, who will never admit his mistake. People will definitely die because of this fool of a man. Imagine 5 years or 4 years of this. I can go on for many paragraphs but what's the point since I firmly know that my point will be proven in less than a year. Don't forget the employment rate keeps rising, inflation is rising. No wages increase for the citizens of the country. Medical and Medicaid will be cut as well as social security. Mass layoffs, it's also not easy to get a new job. Well I think we will have to migrate to other countries but that will not help. The only solution is to have him removed from the oval office.

A real statesman ❤??Do you think Dump could speak so well ?Thinking of his people and their needs, not his own or friends and family.

Trumpism divides, isolates, and weakens the US, it’s too bad that once a well-respected and powerful peacemaking empire is becoming a pathetic joke to the world. And most people are sound asleep worshiping the clown, the dangerous entertainer. “When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king. The palace becomes a circus”

Well, that is what some ignorant Americans voted for! Now, all the people that live in USA have to face the consequences!

Refreshing! Clear communication! Concern for the well being of the people. Introducing facts --- what a concept..

Well. Based ON THEIR WORD Trump paused the tariffs because of promises made ...... Just like Mexico they said they would secure their borders to help stop the flow if illegal immigrants, drugs, gangs and terrorists into the USA... THEY DID NOT. China did nothing to crack down on fentanyl being smuggled out of their country (although I think they would rather see American people die of overdoses. When Trump says he going to do something he does it.. no more Biden woosie politics.

Your Canadian biker gang network. Is the people who collaborated with the Mexican cartels and Chinese mafia to bring pre curser chemicals into USA to make fentanyl. The FBI knows all about it. It’s well known that the 3 criminal enterprises are working together and the Canadian biker gangs are responsible for not only transporting the drugs but also illegal weapons.

As a Canadian citizen, it’s not that I do not feel like my interests and well-being doesn’t matter. I know it doesn’t matter. He close attention to what he says as well such as make that make sense is a popular conservative or republican slogan. These are mental gymnastics in order to confuse the majority and misdirect the population. As it says in the Bible let he who is without sin cast the first stone and lately. I see a lot of people throwing stones in glass houses.

Well, Donald Trump is not my President.He is the people president who voted for him but he's not my president

Trump is a crazy immoral liar who wants to be a dictator and he’s trying to ruin the country so that he can be. I hope the people who voted for him are happy. It was clear, and he even described what he would do. I am very sorry it is hurting our friends and allies, as well as the U.S. people, especially Canada, Germany, and France..

Well said. I love the USA, I have relatives who live there and in all the years of a beautiful relationship with the people of America I have never seen this situation. Mr. Trump you seem to want to conquer and divide relationships at any cost, even with people who care about you. You sabotage yourself and those who are loyal to you. I'm not sure if you understand the implications of your decisions. But I will say respectfully, there are no winners in a trade war, nor is it you that has the final say on the worlds outcome. This is God's world not yours and not ours. I'm really disappointed to see American people and Canadians hurting because of whatever the point of all of this means. But Canada is strong and we will stand up for our country. The American people are strong and they were strong before you became the President. Working together, we can take care of each other for our families and our country.

We Canadians work hard to respect all cultures and peoples, we are polite when it is hard-but do not screw with our country and try to destroy our economy as a tool in your local political games. We are strategic, well educated and we will fight back and win.

Texan and Cold War veteran here. Canada has fought beside us in every major conflict and a number of small ones as well and has always been a good friend to the American people. I will do everything I can to support Canada and Ukraine and any other ally our current dis-administration attempts to bully. \n\nExcellent speech Mr. Prime Minister, you are what leadership and integrity look like and Canadians can be proud to call you their own. You are polite, we are not. You are loyal, we are not. You have guts, we currently do not. God keep your land glorious and free!

People think Trudeau did well here. Maybe so. But his actions show he does the ball repeatedly

Well, I was feeling really great about all the support from around the world, including the kind words of many Americans (thank you), but then I watched this same speech on the Fox youtube channel and the comments are exactly the opposite. Hating the speech and Trudeau. Funny how people can watch the same thing and see two different versions.

I have never been so ashamed to be an American ? It’s like Trump is trying to hurt as many innocent people as he can. He is abusing nice people like the Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau. He is hurtful to the Mexicans and immigrants as well. I was so angry with the way the Trump administration ganged up on and bullied the nice, strong Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. I loathe the Trump administration. Trudeau and Zelenskyy are vastly superior to Trump and everyone in his administration.

Enjoy for some moments Canidian coz this will be ur loss ultimately Under Trump America is doing perfectly well just coz he is against u it don't mean u guys r right U have also done many wrong n the people seems fools rather than calling Trump as Dumb

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

Listen to Trudeau, this is how a nations leader speaks. Intelligible, intelligent, well spoken, concise, level headed and he came armed with the facts. Compare him to idiot Drumpf, who is unintelligble, idiotic, reactionary, emotionally unstable, speaks at a 4th grade level, who lies like he depends on it (he does), and speaks only in run-on-sentences laden with self praise and peppered with insults for his critics and those he dislikes. The man only likes people who suck up to him as sycophants do. Theres nothing to sugar coat here, Drumpf is dumb as hell, a complete asshole and 100% self interested. His supporters love him because he's just like them in character, and how they want to be in reality: rich.

The people cheering this move by Trump are the same people who complained groceries prices were too high under Biden during the election. Well, buckle the F up because you all asked for what's coming.

Well Trudeau did you doubt him. Get rid of the carbon tax if you care about your people, and stop blaming everyone else for bankrupting our country. You did that. Btw: your stern stance scares me. NOT!

Are people _FINALLY_ going to see reality? Trump wants as much discourse as possible. His major plan is to declare a reason for Martial Law, to take complete control of the government/country. As I have said this before, for years, all I received in return is to be called a Russian BOT! Well, guess what? It's going to get much, much worse! And, YES, it's the democrats, also.

I wish I was Canadian ❤, run by smart well spoken people who care about their citizens.

I just just don't understand what these blanket tariffs achieve for Americans. Firstly, employment in the US is at an all time high, if the aim is to bring back primary and manufacturing industries then it's just a myth. It's just pointless and mindless. Nobody wants to go back to working in heavy industry, people want high paying, highly specialized industries, this doesn't create that, it just makes cost of living higher so wages have to go up and cost of bringing in raw materials goes up, all things that discourage start up companies that employ well educated and skilled Americans

Canada not the only country is mad, angry, disgusted by Donald Trump when the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said you're a smart man this is a dumb thing to do , Check out his face he's saying to Donald Trump you're not a smart man and you're dumb man . Bravo Trudeau as an American well said I stand with you and a large number of people in America stand with Canada.................................................

This just shows how disconnected canada really is with the american people. We as Americans are suffering, canada gets free medical services, we have to pay for that service as well as many other services , talk about what the american people need first ..

Canada and Mexico have always been family, as well as UK and Europe close friends and allies. Trump is by far the daftest president in the history of our nation, he’s destroying our economy and the well-being of the American people. All he’s doing is making the rich richer and getting rid of the middle class making families struggle. \n\nSo much for the equality and prosperity of our country. \n\nI really wish President Zelenskyy would not sign over any mineral l rights to the Ukraine. I felt embarrassed and completely appalled as an American for the treatment that he received. \n\nThe duped people who voted for Trump are now getting what they deserve. This presidency is not America first. \nThis presidency is about Trump and his friends changing all the laws for their own benefit lining their pockets.

I think Trump is tired of our trade deficit with Canada. I have faith in Trump. This has nothing to do with the Canadian people. If people want to have a mutual alliance, then they have to step up and play fair as well.\n\nGod bless President Trump, America and the World in Jesus’s Holy Name, Amen! ??

Thank you PM Justin Trudeau! You make me very proud to be a Canadian! True North Strong and Free! ❤??\nAs well, thank you Americans and people around the world for supporting Canada. Bless you all!

Finally people see Trump is a Russian and Chinese puppet.\n\nTrudeau is a very well spoken and intelligent talking man here.

A man who stands for his people and can still speak well and correctly. Greetings from the Netherlands. Europe hopes to be able to work together with Canada.

Anti-Americanism is right. Im glad Trudeau stepped up so quickly. Well done. From the rest of the world (specifically the UK)? We'll be doing the same. \nThis is your leaders fault, not the peoples, and I feel bad for you all. \nThose 3,800 down voters? You deserve this. For some odd reason, you arent getting the memo.

I wish to side track just slightly from this videos content. This individual who calls himself the PM of Canada is nothing short of a criminal. You're listening to a child pretending to be an adult. Trudeau is the reason that freedom is vanishing from Canada. He openly admires the Communist system of China (social credit system). He has destroyed the economy of Canada all by himself. He is desperate to destroy freedom of speech and punishes all who oppose him. Please remember what Trudeau did to Canadians during the PEACEFUL trucker protest in Ottawa. He froze bank accounts for Canadians who stood by the truckers. He inposed some of the harshest lockdown measures in the world during the pandemic and he abolutely HATES democracy. Have you forgotten his blackface scandal as well? This is the face of an absolute TYRANT pretending to be a crusader for fairness. Don't forget his total ripping during the UN speech he gave about 2 years ago when foreign UN representatives tore into him for his open tyranny against Canadians. His security thugs have assulted journalists simply for asking him honest questions about the Canadian economy and now you are swayed by a suit wearing mobster. He protects terrorists across Canada while simultaneously arresting Canadians for demanding their freedom to be restored. This guy is a THUG in an expensive suit and nothing more. It's nausiating to see how quickly people forget and how easily they are swayed by a bandit in an expensive suit. WAKE UP. Trudeau is the face of evil and you admire him. Nausiating.

Yeah, his words mean nothing to the American people and the Canadians and Trump for that matter. Trump single handedly exposed the Libs in Canada as well as the US! The art of the deal brought the devil's out.
