Well Played Premier JT! Your delivery was ?. I love how you purposefully quoted the Wall Street journal too. You made it very clear that you, JT are not the one who is saying “Donald is smart”, while using his first name like he disrespectfully uses yours. Stroke his pathetic ego! \n?\nHow will you stand up for us though? Universal basic income for all!

After screwing the United States, they cry because they don't want to apply the same one that they apply to us America first

We support you Canada - love from Europe! Stay strong! CANADA FIRST!!

American here. A Never Trumper to the core. With sadness for the first time to be an American ,,, millions of us despise this and fought it and continue on doing so ,,but utmost respect to Canada # with a sad heart ❤?

TRUMP 2028 BABY!!! AMERICA FIRST!! EAT IT!

First this guy forces people to 'vaccinate' with a poisonous genetic substance. When protests occur he ruins the life of thousands of truckers by freezing their bank accounts. But when Trump reacts on tariffs he hopes for the support of Canadiens who were suppressed by him before!

???????????? not the way you make trade deals orange clown & First Lady Elon

The speech of Mr Trudeau, the way Canadians have shown solidarity for one another, today it all puts my country, The US, to shame. I am ashamed of what my government is doing and I am disgusted with the people doing it. In Mr Trump’s first term, as eclipsed as they were by the many many many actions and attitudes he imposed on us that embarrassed and hurt us as a country, there was the rare occasional decision I could at least understand even if I did not support it. Since taking office literally not one thing he has done has made sense to me as an American. I can only say how sorry I am for what the country I love is being used to do to you all, especially our closest allies and friends and in particular the people of Canada today. I grew up in Commerce Twp Michigan. I visited Canada regularly and, even as crime from Detroit poured across the border into Canada, Canadians always treated us with respect and welcome. I never imagined that would stop but now I find it hard to imagine how it might continue and it breaks my heart.

Wow, for the first time I’m impressed by Trudeau. Mmmm?

Ignorant Americans (which seems to be a majority of us now days) only know what a “Tariff” is based on what Trump says it is, and Trump doesn’t know ? about what they are and how they function (even if it is his favorite word in the dictionary). And the leadership of our government are chicken-? when they won’t stand-up and correct him when he makes stupid remarks about stuff like having an “External Revenue Service”. What a f*ucking joke!\n\nAmerica first is America alone… We deserve all the ? that you’re dishing-out to us! Give us hell!!!

Yeah yeah yeah… you should have been being fair from the start instead of talking advantage of us in the first place!!!

I spent the first five years of my life in Canada. I think I'm ready to return.

FIRST OF ALLLLLL, the switching of languages is a major FLEX!!!!!! \nOur pResident can barely speak one. ?

CNN, why in the world do you waste our time telling us what we just saw and heard? Anyway, I'm very nervous, if not down right scared, to watch the United States devolve into a fascist regime. It feels terrorists now hold our government hostage. For the first time in my life, I'm embarrassed and ashamed to be an American.

Trudeau and Zelenski both have nothing to loose politically so they choose to talk in this manner. \nChina is coming after U.S. and if U.S. doesnt put america first then NATO or EU is meaningless.\nYes in a short run, americans will get hurt, but in the long run, more and more companies will open their manufacturing centers in U.S. to avoid then tariff, which will create more jobs in the future.

Mr. Trudeau - you are the first leader, who will make America think again!?

Was reading these Comments wondering how everyone was siding with countries that don’t put America first. Then I seen I was watching a video by fakeNN. Makes sense.

Canada is on track to become the next world superpower, so long as Trump doesn't hand the keys to the kingdom to Putin first. The American people do not want this. I pray the people can take back their country before we collapse.

Krasnov Trump says repeatedly its America First, but his actions have clearly shown from his actions its Russia First

I do believe i have family by blood in Canada, now I know i have family by moral all over Canada. This may hit you first, it will hit us too. May we stand united against this sorrow. With absolute respect from a scandinavian citizen

Trump and his crownies is such a nutjob! And those MAGA groupies just keep on thinking, as Trump himself, that tariffs are being paid by the other country! ?? Oooh, Trump, you and the First Lady Elona Musk, are really so out of touch with reality. Greetings to your labradoodle Vance and your puppet master Putin.

Trudeau is correct. His first time, but still correct.

This clown was ready to resign and step down. He should be thanking trump that his leadersip of canada still exists. Canada was and is going down the tubes. All of canada wanted this clown canned 3 months ago. At any rate, nothing canada can do. 75% of their population lives with spitting distance of the US. They need us, we don't need them. \n\nWhat do all you leftist clowns have in common? You are all haters of America. Better get used to America First bc it's just getting started.

I love how when he addresses Trump directly he dumbs it down and speaks like hes talking to a 3 year old…well done. I am an American but I am HUMAN first. Something the rest of my countrymen should take a moment and try remember.

Nicely done mr. Trump! \nAmerica and Americans first

First time I’ve ever agreed to anything he’s ever said.

Canada should first implement trudeau. New person should be elected. Then that person should visit the oval office with trump in, then trump must say to that guest you don't have the cards to play, with us only you have the cards ?

first resign and go away from our face.

Trump doesnt kno da true meaning of friend. So Da People are in trouble. And We Da People didnt vote him in. Da secret dark in da back did. Have no one notice dat NOBODY ever liked trump dat much to vote him in. Many/majority People been hating on trump since his first run. Powerful people in da background put him in anyway

Maybe you could start with having the Pope apologize to us Canadians about the lies you, Mr. Trudeau told about Natives being buried and killed by teachers in Canada and you blamed us. Where is our apology first. A reasonable Canadian asks.

The next holidays 2025 my family is not going to spend in US, as done before the years, but we will visit Canada, first time of our life. Best decision ever. Greetings from Austria ??.

If your American and own a farm, SELL IT FAST! Farms will be lost in the first rounds of this trade war with the civilized world.

First, We as Canadians do truly care for the Americans who didn't Vote for Trump. But it's time we shut off the power and see what baby ?Trump will do..Time for him to back the Fuck up Canada has had it with your Dumb Ass

Why is there such an imbalance of payments between so called friendly countries. You may not like what Trump is trying to do, balance the offset, but you did set up the imbalance in the first place so this is karma. Trudeau was out before this started so he knows he will not have to sort the mess out he is now creating.

I see a LOT of emotions here in the comments from people who like to tout where they're from for some really weird reason. I imagine to represent the soap box they stand upon. I find it ironic people are giving underhanded insults to Donald Trump by comparing how Trudeau speaks, yet I can almost guarantee those same people brag about how they refuse to listen to a word Donald Trump says. So its a really silly way to try to insult someone. Also just checked some of my stocks daily returns. Up over 2%. So he was wrong within the first 10 minutes. I suspect the market will become more bullish as some of the companies that have made deals to create factories in the US complete them and start churning out products made locally.

I don’t think that Trump’s Tariffs have anything to do with Fentanyl. His aim is to isolate USA from their allies, he wants to gather as much money as possible to pay for huge tax cuts to the richest oligarchs. This is all about greed first and the destruction of democracy second. We are so much more vulnerable as a nation at this time. I love my Canadian friends, please don’t think that us New Englanders support him.

Our immature Canadian leader reacting emotionally, not professionally time to turn down the rhetoric. How about look for solutions and a long long over due, Canada supporting Canada first. \nShame on Canadian government for not marketing Canada and turning into a highly competitive nation. \nBy the way this is not a secure country!

Let see who blinks first Mr. TRUDUE

eu and canada first! \nusa last where the trash belongs

I don't consider that. . . Talking directly to Trump. Good luck you whimpy crazy little fruit. Ok shoot us with your tariffs. See who caves first. Whining on tv trying to change our minds. When we openly, willingly and happily voted to change the way THIS COUNTRY has been thru because of idiots like you, Biden ETC. change hurts in the beginning. . . But in the end. We will see who has a trade deficit with who. Good luck little fruit

Long to live America, MAGA first. Canada week diplomacy with geico insurance.

Beware of all religions. “Beware of false prophets, men who come to you dressed up as sheep while underneath they are savage wolves.” –(The Prophet and Messiah Jesus of Nazareth at Matthew 7: 15)– \nFor God is our true Father. So never worship and pray in the way of the many false prophets of all religions. \n“But when you pray, go into a room by yourself, and shut the door. Pray to your Father who is there in the secret place; and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you openly. \nIn your prayers do not go babbling on like the heathen, who imagine that the more they say the more likely they are to be heard. Do not imitate them. Your Father knows what your needs are before you ask him. \nThis is how you should pray: \nOur Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, \nYour kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven, \nGive us today our daily bread, \nForgive us the wrong we have done, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us. \nAnd do not bring us to the test, but save us from the evil one. \nFor yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever. \nAmen. \nFor if you forgive others the wrongs they have done, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others, then the wrongs you have done will not be forgiven by your Father.” – (The Prophet and Messiah Jesus of Nazareth at Matthew 6: 6-15) – \n \n“Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged. For as you judge others, so you will yourselves be judged, and whatever measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.” – (at Matthew 7: 1-2) – \n \n“In truth I tell you, if anyone obeys my teaching he shall never know what it is to die.” – (at John 8: 51) – \n \n“Always treat others as you would like them to treat you: that is the Law and the Prophets. \nEnter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life and only a few find it.” – (Matthew 7: 12-14) – \n \n“I am the gate; anyone who comes into the fold through me shall be safe. He shall go in and out and shall find pasturage. \nThe thief comes only to steal, to kill, to destroy; I have come that men may have life, and may have it in all its fullness.” – (John 10: 9-10) – \n \n“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” – (Matthew 7: 21) – \n“I am the resurrection and I am life. If a man has faith in me, even though he dies, he shall come to life; and any one who is alive and has faith shall never die.” – (John 11: 25-26) – \n \n“I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world” – (John 12: 47) – \n“Whoever then will acknowledge me before men, I will acknowledge him before my Father in heaven; and whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” – (Matthew 10: 32-34) – \n \n“I am the way; I am the truth and I am life; no one comes to the Father except by me. If you knew me you would know my Father too.” – (John 14: 6-7) – \n \n“An expert in the law, [a leading religious Pharisee] tested him with this question: ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ He answered, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind. That is the greatest commandment. It comes first. The second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. Everything in the Law and the Prophets hangs on these two commandments.’” – (Matthew 22: 35-40) – \n \n“There is no greater love than this, that a man should lay down his life for his friends.” – (John 15: 13) – \n \n“Do not call any man on earth ‘father’ ; for you have one Father and he is in heaven. Nor must you be called ‘teacher’ ; you have one Teacher, the Messiah.’” – (Matthew 23: 9-10) – \n \n“Take care that no one misleads you: For many will come claiming my name…” – (Matthew 24: 4) – \n“Many false prophets will arise, and will mislead many; and as lawlessness spreads, men’s love for one another will grow cold. But the man who holds out to the end will be saved. ” – (Matthew 24: 11-13) – \n \n“Teach them to observe all that I have commanded you. And be assured, I am with you always, to the end of time.” – (Matthew 28: 20) – \n \nYours, in true Spirit and in our one given prayer, 2gointruth, on Tuesday the 4th of March 2025: – (Please read Matthew 5: 14-16) – Where every minute (of both day and night) can be a new beginning for any one of us. Let it always be you. Pray to God often, as prescribed above, before it is too late.

Mr. Trudeau thank you for apologizing to us the American citizens for this trainwreck our narcissist evil monster not leader has caused since his first day in office

After trump’s first term every single adequate person new what a clinical idiot he was. Why the hell the country which was considered by many as a great nation elected him again?!

Trump isn’t the President we Democrats voted for the first time or this last time, and he’s lied to his Republican Constituents and they’re mad! They’ll vote with us in the midterms, but until then Trump must be Impeached! Impeached! Impeached! Vance must be Impeached! Impeached! Impeached!

Those who are first, shall be last.

Most American's never wanted this, just the idiots who voted for him....hit the red states first

His first sentence was BS, so the rest of his speech is equally BS!

FROM ARGENTINA I support Trump on this!!! The USA should balance goods trade and blow up deficit! Milei in Argentina has eliminated deficit for the first time after 123 years in Argentina's history, making economy and investment start growing. Mexico and Canada are taking advantage, Go Trump!!!

The first time I really appreciate this guy
