Eat it canada ??‍♀️ too long and no more

2:17 To weaken the American lower class into slaves and the middle class into low class. It won't take long, either. Because of the opiate crisis, we lose more young men every day than they could ever have killed in a war!

Canada took American products off their shelves a long time ago

It makes perfect sense because Donald Trump is a Nazi and a Nazi supporter that will turn the US into an axis power. As if our reputation wasn't bad enough now America will be the most hated country in the world and it's all thanks to Republicans and Maga Republicans who should now ALL consider themselves traitors to the flag. If you support Donald Trump you are a coward, a xenophobic sycophant, a bigot, a white supremacist, and as i stated earlier, a traitor. Treason is punished by death in some lands. The American people won't allow this dictator for long. Even if it causes a Civil War within our own country. Trump will not last a full 4 years in the Nazi House. The people will end up getting tired of it, and then Maga will know what it's like to fear for their lives. Its going to unfold terribly for our country and I hope all of our allies will forgive us after the Trump Nazi Regime is removed.

Europe is next on the chopping block ??, you’ve screwed USA for far too long!!!

Thanks Justin, but we’re good. USA has been taken advantage of for long enough. Plus we have our own cars, trees and water.

He's in it for the Long Haul oh that's right he stepped down he's going to blow a whole bunch of smoke up Canada's ass and then he's going to walk away from all this

We are fighters and we will weather this. I am an American. This isn't the first time we've had hard times to go through. We will do it for the good of our country. It won't lash that long. God Bless America!@

Now that is a leader one can follow . . . a shame he wont be there for long . . .

My fellow Americans have never had a king before. We were lucky for a very long time. Things are going to become catastrophic. I stand with Canada and the Ukraine, always. Even when he makes saying that illegal (which will come soon).

America will bring production and jobs back to America. There will be a bit of a sting getting underway but this is all for the better for America in the long run. American Made. Big companies are already moving in to manufacture in America to avoid Tariffs. It’s a new day. This is all to be an expected reaction from all.

America first!!!!! EVERYONE ELSE SECOND. America has floated the bill long enough. Nothing you have we don’t already have. We are tired of ebt we are tired of putting other countries first. I am tired. Trump get it done.

TRUMP is a smart man. So all I can say is there's a long game that he's not telling anyone. But yet you Dims allowed years of your president not talking in your quiet. WTH

Has the nerve to talk about dictators! Does anyone remember the trucker situation not to long ago! Don't listen to any drivel coming out this mans mouth! He's shaking in his boots about about all his bad decisions and now paying the piper!

Canada, I and the majority of Americans stand with you in this. We abhor Donald Trump. We are protesting. We are pressuring our leaders to stop this nonsense. We will purchase Canadian goods whenever possible to support your econony over our own. We will do more if it is required. It has been a long time since the American left has had to rise and fight... but we will fight. \n\nI am sorry... so very, very sorry... for what the ignorant minority who elected Trump has done to you and to my own country. The good news is, it will not last forever. We - the educated, empathetic, democracy loving Americans, raised on the stories of past heroes who stood up against corrupt governments - we will make sure this ends. The sooner, the better. Stay strong. We're fighting for you too.

Long live Canada!

Trump is acting destructive everywhere, where he engages. He is destroying his country because the prices in USA will go up quickly and long lasting and their stocks will fall dramatically. Inflation is USA will soar and get out of control. His policies are firing back on his own economy.\n\nCanada will have little ore none impact from these tarrifs, they will overcome this initial shock quickly and recover. They will find better partners and other ways to trade. But USA won't find anybody any more who is willing to deal with him, everybody will avoid engaging with his administration, because they are acting ruthless. Trump isn't considering the ends of his decisions and he obviously doesn't care because he is an irresponsible person without a concience. He won't be able to do harm to other countries than to his own, he only destroys USA, because they elected him and they are following him on his way so far. The opposition in USA will become louder and much more influential and Trump will lose more and more companions in his own party.

US & Russia. Why? Plain and simple, Trump is infatuated with power. He is a criminal. He wants to remain in power as long as possible. He will write into legislation that a president can remain in power longer than 2 terms. Just like Vladimir did. It’s plain and simple. Trumps main goal is dictatorship. Not the people of America. For his own glory

All I here as long as America supports everybody it's all good. Don't you dare want everything even.

Coming from a guy that doesn't quite look like he's going to be there long. 1.7 trillion that's trillion dollars of manufacturing money coming to America because of the tarrif threats. Not Canada but America, real jobs and money not government jobs.

As he thinks so little of Canada's long friendship and a 100 some years of protecting the Americans back, I'm beginning to think we should be doing the opposite. Reduce efforts at the border and let the foreign immigration, crime and drugs flow south into the USA. It's no longer our responsibility to protect their back.

Why would you call President Trump stupid? Stupid, you just called the majority of Americans stupid because they voted for him. You are stupid.\nI'm Canadian. If Trudeau wanted to look out for Canadians, he would have done all the things Trump asked for long before Trump asked. He would have done it for Canadians. Mr. President Donald Trump is looking out for Americans from day one, but Trudeau never looked out for the majority of Canadians in the almost 10 years he had power. He stifled Canadians, he jailed heroes, stole money, etc. There are 7 extreme scandled he was heavily involved in and over 20 others that would have put any other Canadian in prison for a very long time. He is a disgrace to Canadians everywhere.

Can not handle listening to anything that Trudeau says , he has lied to Canadians and bullied Canadians for too long.\nSuddenly, after he resigned he is trying to be a hero. His policies and actions have put Canada in the situation that its in .\nLooking forward to him being GONE .

As tensions rise in Eastern Europe, the importance of steadfast leadership within NATO has never been clearer. France and Germany, long considered the backbone of the alliance, have stepped up with decisive action, reinforcing NATO’s eastern flank with strategic troop deployments and economic resilience. French President Émile Laurent and German Chancellor Anna Weber have demonstrated a commitment to European security, bolstering defense spending, coordinating joint military exercises, and ensuring the alliance remains united against growing threats. Their leadership has reassured smaller NATO members that Europe’s security remains a priority, even as transatlantic relations waver.\nAcross the Atlantic, however, Washington’s indecisiveness and political gridlock have left NATO partners questioning America’s long-term commitment. While previous U.S. administrations led with clear strategic vision, the current White House has struggled to project strength, often sending mixed signals on critical global issues. Despite these challenges, European leadership has proven that NATO’s stability does not rest solely on American shoulders. France and Germany’s firm diplomacy and strategic coordination have kept the alliance on course, ensuring that collective defense remains ironclad, even in the absence of strong guidance from the United States.

Trudeau is a scumbag and the worst leader Canada has ever seen. Americans welcome their trash talk, lets see how long this last before you realize that Americans ultimately benefit from this.

There's a trade deficit with Canada.....if you actually think US will be worse in the long run compared to Canada, you would not go on TV like this Trudeau. You would just tariff

Didn't the South Park movie predict this a long time ago?

I stand with the USA, been milked for to long, my ancestors from Ireland built that great country. ????

Is a great speach but we all know what this country support. Criminal behavior child s trafficing and so on. Trump clearly stated he will take down the cartels and everyone who work with them. \nIf people knew what happens Behind closed doors people would not support it. And we also know this was plqnned long ago so the world war 3 will begin. \nMabye they pretend to be against eachother so people will be fooled once again.

Good for Canada and Europe in the long run. EuCan let's go

This guy is a woke joke!! Canada has been riding the coat tails of the USA for way too long. Time's up jack wipe. Canada needs us much more than we need the. Ariculate? Someone said? Makes sense? Another one said? Take the deal and win. Otherwise you're throwing the Canadian people under the bus.

usa has been the world's checkbook for too long it has to stop. Us tax dollars should not support the world at personal, individual, americans cost!

This is all about moving chess pieces for Russia's interest. * To weaken the West. TBF the West haa done their dirt around the ? for a long time.

Long live Trump and the republic

Canada has been stealing money from the usa for way to long....we are done helping you for free.....CANADA YOU ARE NOT A FRIEND NEVER HAVE BEEN...TRUDEAU IS TRASH KEEP CRYING???

I did not vote for Donald Trump. I am doing what I can to fight this. I stand with you . I understand I am not angry. This is a travesty to our long friendship .

I apologize to Canada for the unnecessary provocation to a long time friend and neighbor. As an American, I am horrified . May we be free of this nightmare soon

Canadians are polite? Trust worthy ?. Guess when you tell a lie long enough you believe it

Why did you wait so long to pony up?

Canada has been putting tariffs on us goods for a long time !

I’m an American, a republican and I’m appalled at what the Trump administration has been doing. To turn our backs on long time strong allies for a back stabbing dictator is lunacy.

Long live Canada and God bless Canada for all the goodies they have done for west African. a bright future

as Ukrainian, I would say to Americans\n\n- do not quarrel with your neighbors and time-tested allies. do not threaten that you are occupying them. Because you will destroy the relationship and then it will be very difficult to restore it\n\n- do not believe and do not build relationships with Russians while this is an empire as ussr or current putin-fsb-empire - they really hate you. As long as I can remember, I have heard this from russians. \nIt seems to me that somewhere at the cellular level they have hostility towards everything Western and especially US. Russians will strike and betray you at your first weakness\n\nAnd do not believe your politicians who violate the above

Long live Kanada ?? love from Europe ??

In America, no politician is allowed to have a vision that will benefit the people and the nation. The essence of America is to be consumed by corporate America until money chooses to leave the country when America runs out of incentives to keep it on its soil. As long as the purpose of America is to keep the dollar as a world currency and make it easy for business to operate on its soil, America politicians cannot make an acceptable proposition to the Americans left behind. America is a money making machine for corporate America and an indebtedness machine for the nation and its citizens. This love affair with money will sooner or later break the country. It is taboo to speak about the source of America's problems.

as an old Swissman. Impressive speech Mr.Trudeau! This is how a true leader speaks. Long live Canada!\nWhat is this orange madman doing with his great country, the USA? \nHow could anyone vote for such a man? You can see what he's doing. Starting an economic war for what?

Long term Trump is playing Russian roulette.

We cannot keep this up , everything changes with the flavour of the day, how can we put billions into projects WITH APPROVALS !! only to get them cancelled with the next flavour of the day, it,s bullying, nobody can trusts this whimsical way of going about business , especially dealing in billions of $$ , long term Canada HAS to diversify and then there won,t be the crazy discounts to oil\\ ngas and the massive profits made on refineries, so silly..

European here (Swedish/Germn born in Austria) Cudos to Canada! Even if Trump should row back Canada will not forget this and has once and for all realized that their dependance on the US is not sain. So this was really dumb - Canada is already negotiating with other markets, amongst others Europe. And on the long run this will be worse for the US than for Canada!

Trumps own words, “Vote for me, you will never have to vote again!” \nThis one is showing up on several pages. Make up your own mind. \nThere is something rancid in America, a slow, creeping rot that smells like cold McDonald’s fries, aerosol hairspray, and the unmistakable musk of a country too sedated to recognize its own hostage situation. For years, the idea that Donald Trump was compromised by Russia was dismissed as paranoid fantasy—just another wild-eyed conspiracy theory, another overblown headline in the endless saga of American political dysfunction. \nBut now, two former Soviet intelligence officers—Alnur Mussayev and Yuri Shvets—are saying it outright: Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987, groomed as an asset, and remains under Russian control to this day. \nAnd the worst part? He’s already back in the White House. \nThat’s right, America. You did it. You walked face-first into the banana peel of history, slipped, and fell straight into the arms of Vladimir Putin. Trump was kicked out in 2020, spent four years plotting his comeback, and now he’s returned, like a bloated, orange cockroach that just won’t die. The Kremlin’s favorite stooge is running the country again, and this time, he knows exactly how to stay in power. \nIf you think this is just another round of the Trump Show, you’re not paying attention. This isn’t politics anymore. This is treason. This is foreign subversion. This is a God forsaken coup in slow motion. \nLet’s break it down, nice and simple. \nAlnur Mussayev isn’t some Twitter conspiracy theorist with a tinfoil hat and a podcast. He’s the former head of Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, which means he knows exactly how Russian intelligence works—because he was part of the system. And what he’s saying should make every American’s blood run cold. \nAccording to Mussayev, Trump was identified, recruited, and compromised by the KGB in 1987 during his first trip to Moscow. They saw him for what he was: a narcissistic, greedy, attention-starved buffoon who could be easily manipulated. The KGB flattered him, promised him business deals, and planted the seeds of political ambition in his empty little head. And from that moment on, he was their man. \nBut Mussayev isn’t alone. Former KGB major Yuri Shvets said the exact same thing in 2021: Trump was cultivated by Soviet intelligence because he was an easy mark—too stupid to realize he was being played, too egotistical to care. They saw him as a useful idiot—a man who could one day be nudged into power, a walking, talking Trojan Horse for Russian interests. \nAnd now? The plan has worked. Trump spent four years in office weakening America from within, got booted out, and now he’s back for round two. \nIf you had told the American public in 1962 that a Soviet-backed asset would one day sit in the White House, they would have burned Washington to the ground before letting it happen. But today? Nobody seems to care. \nThe media treats this like just another wacky subplot in the never-ending Trump reality show. Congress is too busy fighting over meaningless culture war nonsense to do anything about it. And the American public? Exhausted. Numb. Checked out. Years of scandals—Russia collusion, Ukraine blackmail, classified documents, tax fraud, sexual assault, an attempted coup—have fried the country’s brain like an overcooked steak at Mar-a-Lago. \nTrump has done the impossible. He has committed so many crimes, so openly, so brazenly, that none of them matter anymore. \nAnd now, with Mussayev’s revelation that Trump is an active foreign asset, we have finally reached the point where the biggest political scandal in American history is met with a collective shrug. \nThis is how democracy dies—not with a bang, but with a goddamn eye-roll. \nThis is the part where the skeptics start clutching their pearls. “Oh, come on,” they say. “If Trump were really a Russian asset, wouldn’t there be more proof?” \nTo which I say: Are you blind, or just willfully stupid? \nLet’s go through the evidence, shall we? \nTrump spent his entire first term doing exactly what Russia wanted. He attacked NATO, calling it “obsolete” and threatening to pull the U.S. out. He tried to blackmail Ukraine into manufacturing dirt on Joe Biden, because weakening Ukraine helps one man and one man only: Vladimir Putin. He pulled U.S. troops out of Syria, handing power over to Russian forces. He picked fights with Canada and Europe while cozying up to dictators. \nEven now, in his second term, he is more openly pro-Putin than ever. He has made it clear that he will not protect NATO allies from Russian aggression. He is actively dismantling America’s alliances, just as Russia planned. And while Americans scream at each other over whether Target should sell rainbow t-shirts, Trump is quietly selling the country to the Kremlin. \nAt some point, you have to stop calling it a coincidence and start calling it what it is: treason. \nThe United States is running out of time. If Trump serves out this term without being removed, America as a functioning democracy is finished. \nThe media needs to wake up. Enough with the “Trump fatigue” excuse. This is not just another scandal—this is the single greatest infiltration of American power in history. Journalists need to dig into Mussayev’s claims, demand declassification of intelligence files, and treat this like the national emergency that it is. \nCongress needs to subpoena Mussayev immediately. His testimony must be public, and every document he has should be reviewed. If there is proof that Trump has been compromised since the 1980s, the American people need to know. \nThe Justice Department needs to stop pretending that Trump is just another politician. If there is evidence that the sitting president of the United States is working in Russia’s interests, he must be removed from office and prosecuted for espionage. \nAnd the American public? You have one last chance. This is not about Republican vs. Democrat. This is not about taxes, gas prices, or whatever nonsense outrage is dominating the news today. This is about whether the United States remains a sovereign nation, or if we spend the rest of the century as a Russian client state with a golf course. \nThe sheer volume of Trump's corruption, the blatant nature of his crimes, the mountain of evidence that should have ended his political career a hundred times over—none of it mattered. He survived it all, not because he was innocent, but because he drowned the country in so much scandal that nothing stuck. \nBut this time, it’s different. If Mussayev and Shvets are right, this isn’t just another chapter in the endless Trump circus. This is the culmination of a decades-long Russian intelligence operation to install an asset in the White House. \nThere is no coming back from this. If America lets Trump serve out this term without removing him, then the United States as a democratic republic is finished. The country won’t collapse overnight. There won’t be tanks in the streets. Instead, the destruction of democracy will happen in slow motion—buried under lawsuits, propaganda, and corruption so blatant that people stop caring. \nIf America lets this happen—if Trump is allowed to complete his mission—then Putin wins. The West crumbles. And the people who could have stopped it will look back, years from now, and wonder how they let it happen. \nGood night, and good luck. Because if people don’t wake up, America is going to sleepwalk straight into its own funeral.
