What a difference it is to watch and listen to Justin Trudeau….he is a real politician….a well informed person….against the craziness of Trump…..what disgrace fell upon a great wonderful country the USA is….with solid people but a not solid govermrnt…..who in Its right mind voted for Trump…? Disgraceful….

This is what a real leader looks like. From and American who is sad our elected (and not elected...) officials slip further into fascism. Love my Canadian brothers and sisters.

The only thing D.T. is doing is ruining everything with his politic. (But I guess we all know about it).\n\nThat's the one whom signed the Free trade agreement between US, Canada and Mexico. The same guy whom now pretexting this agreement is not good for US. \nHe destroys all the friendship with US allies and what has been built for decades.\nIn 4 years, what wil be left over?\n\nAmericans will suffer the incompetence of this guy.\nIf only it was not real, we could either think it's a fiction or a joke, unfortunetly neither of both of them; that's a reality.

This is what a leader, a real leader…intelligent and savvy…looks like. When Trump looks into the mirror, this is not what is reflected back. The reflection looks like a four year old child, crying because Daddy doesn’t love him. It’s sad but we will be paying dearly for a child’s temper tantrum and very disturbing behaviors. Wake up United States, Congress, Republicans and Democrats, the entire News Media, and uninformed voters. This country, our country is at risk of going the way of all fallen dynasties…into oblivion. God help us all. Sorry dear Canada, so sorry.

The real winners are the BILLIONERS that knew this is going to happen...donny is a real sly dog....his guys will make trillions, and probably he will get his cut...

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

Wesley Clark is a tool. \n\nHe knows very well that the US cannot get in a shooting with Russia. Not only due to the possibility of a nuclear exchange, but a shooting conflict with Russia is a golden opportunity for China to take Taiwan and for a full scale war to break out in the Middle East. Not only between Iran and Israel, Egypt has been building up forces near Israel as well. \n\nThe US can’t fight and win a 3 theatre war. Aka WWIII. \n\nEveryone knows these tariffs are about the USMCA, in addition to drugs and aliens. This could have been averted. They know it. They’d rather let their people suffer than give up a favorable trade imbalance for a slightly less favorable trade imbalance. \n\nBut for Trudeau to invoke appeasement knowing the real stakes. And knowing that the only thing preventing hostilities breaking out elsewhere in the world is the US having freedom of action to respond, is shameful. \n\nAnd Wesley Clark, along with the rest of the neocon geopolitical apparatus, being willing to flirt with WWIII because Trump is pulling the plug on their imperial project in Ukraine.. downright traitorous.

This is what a real president looks like

Watch out Canada, there's going to be a lot of US citizens looking to move north. The real best country on earth.

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.

This is the difference between a real leader and a sloppy stooge leader.

Yes Trump is a real Dumbo.

Level-headed, measured, amicable, educated, a real leader and statesman. Talking to an orange baffoon. I only disgree with Trudeau in one thing. Trump does dumb things cause he is actually dumb. And seeing that he is insulting people and allies left and right I personally would love for other leaders inventing fitting names for him paying him back in kind. Someone came up with Mango Mussolini, I had until now favored Orange Utan, but the Mango version is appealing. And lets face it, Trump's cabinet of circus freaks also literally begs to be ridiculed.

This is what real leadership looks like Trump

you lied to us through your full term in parliment\n why should I believe anything you say, we had the chance to stop these tarifs ,it's you that has made this worse, and since we are censored Canadians don't know the real truth to all this,

As an American, Canadians should be so proud of their country today. You have real leaders.

Oh please you don't care about your country Steph down and let a real leader deal with this

Now I believe he is a Russian asset… for real.. too bad the U S military can’t remove him….everyone is now emasculated. Success for Russian intel…they were able to infiltrate U.S. at highest level.

Our felon President is a real clown ? and we are praying for the day we get him out of office.

Trump is a real disgrace.

Trudeau is a real leader. I'm jealous that we cannot have this in our country

You follow the money trail of China and Canadian dealings ,an investigative journalist did and found precursor supplies to make fentanyl heavily coming into Canada from China, being assembled in Canada, then shipped to mexico drug cartels from Canada, then entering US across mexican US border....so how is Canada not to blame when RCMP know of drug labs in Canada and turn blind eye as do the politicians, and meanwhile China launders the drug money through real estate and casinos. No one wants to address the elephant in the room. Life is easier while Blind, till it isn't!

Wow. Imagine having a real leader instead of a bitter, selfish, authoritarian burning your whole country to the ground without any regard to 90% of the population.

Wowwww… Now that’s a real azz President… As a American citizen just watching this… I see families looking for visas to Canada now … Way to go Yellow Man U are fcking us day by day …

How backwards is this reality man it doesn't even feel like it's real

The problem with Trudeau, is that he bluffs real hard about:\n- the US being dependent in Canada.\n- Canada's trade with the US for the past decades is nothing but just an act of friendly favour to the US.\n- That the US lifeline hangs in the charitable hands of Canada.\n------\nWell, in reality though, this is not the case.\nThe coming weeks, months, and years will speak by themselves.

Imagine having a real leader still

And that 's how a real politician talks, and show facts not what we have a bunch of spinless republicans

Better get used to it Canada (and Europe), your nearest neighbour is now officially a Friend and Ally of Putin and Russia!\nThis is the Real Donald Trump we are now seeing. \nHe's been deeply involved with them for Decades, maybe now we need to know why?

It's awesome to hear the REAL TRUTH from a real leader!\nTragically it's NOT the president of my country, the USA!!\nTRUMP IS AN UNHINGED IDIOT, AS ARE HIS CULT FOLLOWERS!

You really really have no idea what your doing when you've pissed off Canada , for the love of God if there is any real Americans left stand up and say no to this reality show that exsits in the mad man's head.\nHundreds of years to become a great country ....one man and his dog is breaking it apart in a matter of weeks. Running a country is not the same as a business , it will be the greatest error ever in mankind.

I'm sorry it's come to this, y'all. Please know the majority of us absolutely do not want this. We're trapped here under this pathetic, weak joke of a president who is crashing our economy on purpose. This doesn't feel real...

Only a fool causes a trade war with Canadian over sych foolish issues. I apologize Canada for my government's actions. I applaud Trudeau's strong example of what real leadership looks like.

I support Canada ? Sometimes you have to lose to win!! The Trump administration is about to fall!!! PRIDE GOETH BEFORE THE FALL AND GREAT WILL BE THAT FALL!!! HOLD ON FELLOW AMERICANS BECAUSE ITS REAL RIGHT NOW!!! LION OF JUDAH ??????

Now let's get to the real story, the one where Amercian taxpayers subsidizing your country while you tax your citizens absurd amounts. One of the most corrupt political countries and Canadiens are sick of it too

Now there is a REAL president. Trudeau is a REAL leader, I wish he were ours. He's a smart and good man. I can't say that about ours.

Fuck trump. \n\nHe’s ruining our country and I’m glad our REAL allies are speaking out about that.

Starting a trade war with Canada weakens America. This is the real reason dt has done this. Hmmm, now which countries in the world would benefit from that? Russia? China? North Korea? My only question is, what are you personally doing to stop this president?

The question in my mind, is why. Why is Trump doing this?? What are his real motives?

We understand Canada!\n Trump is a traitor Russian puppet Traitor! Worst president in American history! People throw the word Traitor around a lot now days, but Trump is a real Traitor

I wish the Stupid people of America ?? had the sense to vote for a real leader like this Guy.

No one believes the fentanyl lies the American Nazis in the Whitehouse tell NO ONE!!! they should have already been dragged out and took to the gilotin CANADA is our loyal family and we have attacked our own familyand the tariffs are on US!! he has lied on Canada to steal from all of us to give more and more to the billionaires THE OLIGARDS OF AMERICA!!! the elderly of America will starve the children of America will starve and our children of America will be working the jobs the immigrants work to support their families and that is the plan it's in their 2025 plan and everyone who voted for it knew it !!! NOW only knowing they are doing everything in their power to fight this is the only way they will be shown any sympathy!!! everyone who supports these Nazis should be exposed every business from the billionaires to the hotdog stand should be boycotted the real Americans need to support each other now ! what people need now is constant information on who is helping and who is not!! and if the media is going to support the people then we must not support them !! and the commercials on media that show any support to these aggressors or works to suppresses the truth should noted and boycotted .we must boycott them all we cannot give them a penny and take any penny we can we must get our country back let's all go AMERICA NOW!!! we must save america

Wow, thats what a real President/Prime Minister acts and sounds like, not like the Orange Clown.

Watched the whole speech on Canadian news. This is what a real leader sounds like....an actual , intelligent adult.\nTrump has made it very clear he is working for Putin to destroy America in every way possible. Those who\nvoted for him, and still support him are absolute idiots.

I am wondering if Fox is gonna show this speech, and how about Newsmax and, the other one that I right now don't remember, I really hope the Americans who voted for trump see how a real leader talks and behaves and I also hope that people realize that this president is hurting every single American Citizen, these tariffs will not help our country it will make it so much harder for every person in The USA to make a decent living. Please don't forget about this NOT NOW NOT EVER.

This is what a real leader does. I'm an American and I stand with Canada.

We are in real trouble here in the U.S. Many of us ! MANY OF US are unhappy with how things are going here in the U.S.

This is what a REAL leader looks and talks like!

A real leader in a responsible country, as an U.S. citizen I’m envious
