Let's be clear Mr. Trudeau, with your pandering to the EU.. No one in your country is at risk. You're so cozy up there taking other countries and other people's money. Nobody in your country is at risk of harm, unless you want to try something? Come on Son! The U.S. is tired of War. We The People are tired of the killing, the killing you are so comfortable with. There is enough War in the world without you adding to it. Are we crystal clear now? We don't need you. And I am willing to go without a few things to prove it to you. I think a lot of Americans are now. We'll see. MAGA ??

I’m in the US but I’m cheering on Canada and the rest of the world. I’m sorry we’re the enemy right now. I know my prices will go up, but please please don’t back down!!

Trumps doing this to appease Putin we’re screwed

If you all believe that this is actually about fentanyl or the border - you're totally naive. Just look at the attacks being undertaken by Trump and Vance towards their allies around the world. This is abouts severing ties, and trying to assert dominance over its former friends. To declare the US the biggest bully in the schoolyard. This is Vladimir Putin's playbook - and his wildest dreams come true. It will only serve to isolate and weaken the US. As a Canadian - very proud of Trudeau's direct, honest comments.

Not surprised. Trump, you're an idiot. You will lose all your allies and significant trade lanes because you have no idea how to run your country and negotiate. Your economy and people will suffer. If you isolate US from the rest of the world, who will come to your aid if Russia decides to take you over? Where will the Americans flee to? Mexico?

Don’t be surprised Trump is trying to force his allies into a position where he will ‘claim’ they’re a danger to the US, so he can convince he owned and controlled political party and goons to ‘defend ‘ America and justify a war on those countries to gain control of their territories :(

US VOTER: “Uhhh, so you do this fella Trudeau is near the end of his term as Canada’s PM? I mean, if you all are done with him and all we could certainly use a guy like him in our executive branch “ ?? ??. \n BTW, I love Canadians. Hell, “ some of my best friends are Canadian.” None In the family of course-what would people say? But you know. This guy Trump is quite the hoser. How about you open up your borders just a pinch to let us sane Americans over? We don’t eat much and we’ll even pay for any medical expenses! Really we will. We’re use to it. How’s about like starting up an H1VFK visa. Yeah, you know-the Hey, I Voted For Kamala visa. Well, just think on it. You guys were there for us during Nam. You can do the human thing again. Cheers ?

Canada, you do not have to explain anything! You are dealing with a fascist, racist, misogynistic, corrupt, narcissistic, diabolical dictator, who wants to destroy US alliances and then united us with the access of evil. US citizens know you all are our allies and that you all are wonderful and we support you. We are not at all in agreement with this so-called president we have. You don't even have to explain. We're just waiting and hoping for this utter madness and destruction to stopso we can all be aligned again.

Don't try to tell the American people what does government doing to it why don't you explain to your people what you're doing to them you tyrant criminal

Trudeau, what a knob head. He’s hated by everyone, he’s a dictator ….. remember the truckers protest? Stopping bank accounts because they didn’t want to take a vax? Why did it take sanctions for you to stop the drugs? You’re a shit

American here from California, we stand with Canada, Ukraine, never Russia. We’re so heartbroken & angry with is happening in the US. Impeach Trump & his cronies then we can have a better world.

when are all of you sheepeople going to realize that this media is offering only propagandized information. and their newscaster’s probably don’t even realize what they’ve been sold. That's why they’re so good at 4:38 selling us that garbage. I think it was Clinton that legalized us being propagandized. this man was shamed out of his Prime Minister position. he’s no friend to Canada and certainly not a friend to America. he’s been bought off and I’m sure he comes with a high price tag??????\nThe swamp is an ugly place. Maybe it takes an ugly acting man to clean it up. Go Trump! \nI’m turning off the fake news, it’s such a turn off the way they insult our intelligence. Wake up people!

You speak boldly only because you're ending your term, leaving the mess for others to deal with. Not sure why other comments said you're intelligent!

As an American.... we don't want this either. Most of us that aren't in the cult reject his lies. I am trying to learn all I can, not really a reference point for how to handle this here but we're fighting... I stand with our true allies, not the axis.

Let's look at the facts.. You're a left-leaning hardliner. Enough said. Do more!!

Maybe the US should try to figure out why so many of its citizens are using fentanyl and other hard drugs. They're blaming other countries instead of addressing the actual issue of addiction and the market for those drugs. Maybe stop buying the stuff and there wouldn't be a market for it...

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!!

trudeau the best...trumps third party interference is not necessary...team trump needs to go on a diet...trumps security should be working at the borders and in the communities to remove dangerous substances and get them the meds they need....team trump are clearly terrorists....demand a re election...\nthanks for the report...

We're not doing it Trump and a small handful of knuckleheads!

They don't care they hate us they want to kill us we're all in trouble we're scared to death they're shutting down everything or Medicaid or Medicare our food stamps everything they're going to take the middle class out within a matter of months and don't trust him a bit.

We’re with you, CANADA! ❤️

If I were Canada I'd start building a wall to keep the Americans out. S***'s going south here real quick. This time next year we're all going to be speaking Russian.

0:19 “They’re closest partner and ally…”\n\nThat’s what you said not us! ?

Stop talking, start a war, if you're a man, start a war, Canada, you're not a bad person, you're the same as women, less tanks, less mistakes, if you can't do it, Canada, you're gay, I'll just say one thing, stop taraffs, you're okay, you're the same as Trump, corporate Canada

You're reasonable? Don't place your opinion on all Canadians. They don't agree with your leftist actions. If you were reasonable you wouldn't be placing tariffs on all American products exported to Canada. Now, reciprocal tariffs are fair. Why don't you tell your people the TRUTH

Stocks are down. Prices are up. Dictatorships are creaming themselves. Americans.... you're nuts. Canada time to show this orange pedo what we're made of.

Regardless of what “side” or team your on you have to recognize these politicians are using us as pawns in a war. We are the collateral. It’s a pissing contest and they’re both playing chicken with how much they will let their people suffer in the name of “winning”. Stop glazing these people. Hop off and wipe your mouth. Your guys not better than the other they will both use you as human meat shields to fight their wars.

You’re really a diplomat

Since when is Trudeau interested in the welfare of Canadians.. After all the citizens are crippled by taxes, businesses closing, and Canada in the WORST state ever, America sees you as a joke, a pushover crippled by weird policies, a mismanaged oil rich country that can be bought with the flick of a finger, NOW you're suddenly concerned.. I call BULLSHIT

We‘re with you????

All the “I stand with Canada” clowns in the comments are either ignorant or just as weak as Trudeau. You’re standing with a leader who crippled his own economy, pushed insane carbon taxes, and sold out to China now crying because the U.S. won’t play along. News flash: Trudeau doesn’t care about you or Canada, he just needs a scapegoat for his failures. Standing with Canada? More like standing with a sinking ship while cheering on the captain who drilled the holes.

I live in the hood buddy and they're still drugs everywhere

America First we're so tired of supporting other countries, we have everything we need here

So let me get this straight us Americans don't have the right to change the tariffs and what kills me is that when it affects you now you complain about it and that it's not fair. So what it says is that you knew it's always not been fair but you've never cared but now it affects you that's why you're complaining.

I almost feel like I need to apologize to the world for the moron that is in the White House. It’s sad when you’re ashamed to be an American.

Why didn’t you do any of this on your own you idiot why does it take Trump to threaten us with tariffs for you to take action on any of it? Can’t wait till you’re gone Jesus.

He’s going to pull the energy plug on the Midwest. Ugh and Trump won’t care if we’re in the dark, no heat and all your valuable food is going to spoil. Trump is degrading the country to turn it into a dictatorship. Starve us, bankrupt us to make it easier to control us.

You're not our President, Trudeau. Step down or you'll get hurt.

We're not your friend or your ally anymore after you committed this unprovoked act of war against us. We won't forget what you did even if Trump chickens out again - America is responsible for this. Enjoy having Russia as your ally instead.

Talk as much as you like, but at which point are you generals going to call this for what it is? - TREASON! Your country is going to Hell in a hand basket and you’re all sitting around doing nothing. Crazy country.

MAN..,, you’re living in a fantasy world if you truly believe everything you said, and apparently no one you know is affected by the atrocities done not to mention national security, which protects us against all enemies! The veterans who fought for us! The seniors who worked hard for their Social Security! And the aid not only for foreign but for all Americans! Do you want Ebola to get here from Uganda? And what they’re doing to our children education and necessary, medical aid, and

He is a Democratic American. I really like this guy. Won’t I’ve always had a lot of respect for Canadians. They’re friendly. They’re nice people and don’t tell me to go live there. I’ll stay here and standby. My fellow Americans that don’t want tyranny. And I’m in my golden years and I had to see this. And I can’t imagine I just survived open heart surgery woke up during the surgery surgery and came out of it alive to be brought back back to what this is happening in my country.

It’s not about fentanyl. It’s not about the two or three people that across their borders. It’s all about his crazy idea that Canada should be the 51st state. And in his warped mind, he thinks by doing this, he’s going to ruin Canada, and that they’re gonna come begging on their hands and knees to be accepted into the United States and I am dead serious. This is what his goal is, and this is what he thinks he’s going to accomplish.

Hate to tell you Justin but we got what you're selling. America needs to become independent in energy and agriculture. America needs to support its own farmers, and oil and gas workers. Its time for America to become America again! You are crazy if you live in America and don't support American manufacturing, Farmers, oil and gas workers. Maybe you should move to Canada if you don't agree with America first.

SUPPORT FROM AMERICA. Sorry you’re going through this

“The one thing he [Trump] has said repeatedly is that what he wants, is to see a TOTAL COLLAPSE of the Canadian economy. Because, that will make it easier to annex us; is the second half of his thought… \n \n“We will never be the 51st State. But, yeah, he [Trump] can do damage to the Canadian economy… Let us not fool ourselves about what he seems to be wanting.” \n \n“This is a policy decision by the American government, designed to go after the Canadian economy… We’re booing a policy that is designed to HURT US!” We’re insulted, and we’re angry… We’re going to fight.” \n \n\t\t \t\t\t– Justin Trudeau (4 March, 2025)

So proud to be Canadian. We're ready Trump, we will endure, we will survive. And, we will thrive again. ??❤️

Canadian here and i was just hoping he wasn't gonna just roll over to Trump and I'm so glad he didn't nor do I understand him claiming we're the ones bringing the fent. I knew that was bulls**t. I'm actually FINALLY quite proud of an action out of this man FINALLY, cuz let's face it Trudeau, ya aint done much positive other than legalizing the weed. But I kinda believe in ya now for growing a set and actually standing up here.

0:30 I'll make it make sense: Trump is a Russian asset. There are no winners in a trade war, but there's a clear winner looking on from Moscow. On the off chance Trump is NOT a Russian asset, he still could not be behaving like a better one, and that's what matters. Should we be even worrying where the true loyalties of a person are, when they're deliberately sinking the ship?

What a dunce. Get this guy outta the discussion. He just wants to keep milking the US and Canada for his own status. Thank god clowns have a ceiling in politics. Screw you Treudue. You're the spawn of communist Fidel Castro from swinger parents who put your strings on at birth to make you a global puppet.
