Must be nice to have a real leader. We're envious, Canada!

As an American I Understand and Respect your Decisions. You must Protect your Country and its People. At this time this Administration under America's Care. Cannot be Trusted! It has been laid bare for the Whole World to See? Donald Trump is in some way Beholding to Putin. Why else would He Cowar to a War Criminal over Working with Friends in Democracy ? It appears that this Administration under Donald Trump is working with and siding with a War Criminal with Criminal Intentions to Divide up The Spoils of the World after they do Everything to Destroy it.\nStand Strong Canada You are The Better of The World. Stand up for Right ,for Truths and for Democracy. We are all Depending on You now.\n??❤️

Canada must build nuclear weapons to deter threat from the US

If look at another perspective, if Trump did not impose tarrifs, then Canada will continue to sell the cars back to US for high profits. Trump mentioned about this, he is not happy. Actually I can understand Trump and what he is trying to do. If he is not harsh, Canada will never change taking advantage of US, not spending on own military.... Etc. US empire is declining fast, and Trump knows this. He is desperate to make his own country great again and stop the decline even though what he must do is going to be very unpopular among all americunts' friends and allies. The same for EU and troublemaker Ukraine who started the war by arrogantly provoking giant superpower neighbor Russia. US cannot afford to fund money, soldiers, weapons for war anymore. If EU wants to support, EU can go ahead without US. Trump is trying to save his own country so he is not wrong.

Canada must become a state. ??

Well done Mr. Trudeau, he is no longer Prime Minister of Canada. He can express his thoughts openly and honestly. Without harming relations between our countries, he can put diplomacy aside, while expressing himself in a respectful manner. Ukrainians must fight against an invader and put their lives in danger. Our invader is purely economic. Let us hope that all Canadians will show as much determination and respect for moral principles. Not to bow to a lawless mentality.

I'm an American standing with Canada. Trump and Vance must be impeached.

Trump insists on an apology from Zelensky because he claimes that Zelensky showed him respect - and at the same time Trump calls Justin Trudeau - who is the Prime Minister of Canada - for governor. Talk about showing respect. So I'm going to call Trump a smallminded, vindictive megalomaniac, a pathological liar and a sick narcissistic baby. Nobody respects Trump; they fear him because he is an unreliable madman with a lot of military strenght and (so far) economic strenght he can threaten everybody with. Pictures of Stalin and Hitler must be hanging in his bedroom...

Canada must pay the price of supporting the Demons called ''democrats''.

It's too bad that Trudeau's Government did so little about fentanyl, also about our poorly-controlled border and destructive immigration non-policies for so long. Hence, driving Trump's scorched-earth policy (The Tariffs). That said, it blows me away that Trump was so vociferous about the Lawfare that was lined up against him in 2023-24, but he doesn't see that excess use of the power of the State is wrong and immoral in this Canadian and Mexican case. Trump only knows the right of might. Threats, coercion, bullying. He doesn't otherwise distinguish between right and wrong; only about what is good for him and his ego. The Tariffs will drive very bad business outcomes in the US. Including, inflation, and lost jobs. The Stock Markets are already tanking. At this particular stage, his ego will not allow him to back off, that's my prediction. Much pain for all Americans (and obviously for Canadians) will first have to ensue. Canada must receive its spanking, and Donald will have to save face. Ultimately, he'll invent some dishonest pretense to put the genie in the bottle, while the economic damage to all sides will be severe. But ... Why would he care?

Blame Canada! ?? \nBlame Canada! ?? \nIt seems that everything's gone wrong since Canada came along\nBlame Canada! ?? \nBlame Canada! ?? \nThey're not even a real country anway\n\nBlame Canada! ?? \nShame on Canada, for\nThe smut we must cut\nThe trash we must bash\nThe laughter and fun must all be undone!\nWe must blame them and cause a fuss before somebody thinks of blaming us! ?? \n\n- south park

Trudeau got the memo and watched Love Actually ??\n\nThe world MUST follow Canada

Hey Canada, your new commitment to stop the flow of phentinol, is it on point. What took you so long to do what should have been done a decade ago? You must have had nothing to gain. What has changed?

From Romania, I respect you, Canada!! We must stand up to these nutjobs.

I am proud to hear our Prime Minister adress politely the American public.Speak to President Trump and reassure us as Canadians the we must respond with Tariffs that benefit Canada !

Canada and Europe must work together. Not let this Russian puppet have his way.

As an American, I FULLY support Canada's response to these idiotic and extremely damaging tariffs levied by the US. Someone MUST stand up to his tyranny, and not bow down this bully.

This Man must be loving it. Donald J Trump just handed this man another term. A diversion from people's focus on his failures and wokeness, which destroyed Canada. Next election you will be voting a Khalistani PM. And guess what this man will be your next PM again.??????

Im confused...where is the US border patrol? Canada doesn't check people going into America, right? Its US border patrol that checks people coming into America, no? Why is Canada getting blamed for the US border patrol problems? Just like criminals going from America into Canada, is it not Canadian border patrols' responsibility to keep Canada safe? This makes no sense that Canada must do the American border patrols job.

americans must realize that this is not against the us citizens .. its against musk, first lady trump and all the spineless maga freaks .. too much social media conspiracy brainwashing during and after covid .. greetz from germany and godspeed to canada ..

From France: we refuse to live in a world of brute, without rules of respect of the other cultures. Canadians is a mervelous country who can living with differents community, and tolerance. they understood the significant of the first originals tribues , and include them with a big resoect. At the time where we must to be careful to the health of our environement, we go to take the management of war! Who want to live in a world in war, with machines and AI, controled by a brutal minority of brutes? For the peace and the good life beetwen humans, we must to fight the lies and the corruption. For the souverainity of Canada: fight for the peace.

As an American, I must say we have boot-licking morons running our Government. I can't believe EVERY Republican agrees with anything that Trump says. It's like we're living in a Twilight Zone episode. I feel so bad for Pr. Zelenskyy and Ukrainians. I'm embarrassed to be American and I can't believe so many Americans were voting for this clown. That probably bothers me more than anything. Apologies to the world and our friends in Canada. JT is being too kind. Shut down your borders to the USA. Ontario....cut your electrical and energy power to the USA. Cut off all trade. I hope China does the same. Make the USA swirl down the drain in pain. I don't want to wait for 2 years to try and vote in more Democrats to put a stop Trump .Bully him back. Bullies always back down when strongly confronted.

Even as a Canadian who is not a fan of Trudeau I must say this is the best speech he’s given. I’m proud that Canada is standing strong against the USA right now. Well done Trudeau.

As an American, the saddest thing is I now have to root against America. A slim majority of those who voted put this wannabe dictator and putin puppet in office and I want to see other countries point that out and slap back. The world needs to recognize the psychosis of donald trump. There isn't any equal relationship or deal with him. He must feel like he's humped you into submission. But like all weak men and bullies, he's ultimately a coward in the face or real challenge. Thank you Canada and accept the sincere apologies of the voters that foresaw and rejected this disastrous government.

Much respect from Holland! Canada is really standing up for itself and the world this way. A great way to respond and communicate. ??? The world must follow and UNITE.

Drama teacher is always drama teacher. Trump can place tariffs at any time. Canada must stop rely on USA for everything. Grow up! Yes, we need to reply with the tariffs as well, but stop making your drama as usual. Trudeau, go away and let Poilievre negotiate a deal with Trump. Stop wasting the Canadian taxpayers money and pretend you care. Trump is not a Russian friend. He is keeping us away from the 3rd world war. The war in Ukraine must to stop.

America…you’re getting taxed on all sides - Canada, China, and Mexico. These retaliatory tariffs are very strategic as well to hit you where it hurts the most. Your farms and food supplies are also going to get hit by lack of workers. I’m so worried for you. Fight back! This man is trying to destroy your country. Follow the money - where it’s being taken from (jobs, Medicaid, etc) and where it’s going TO (tax cuts for most wealthy, contracts for billionaires). The SAVE Act is trying to make it very difficult for minorities and WOMEN to vote. They are trying to basically take over so they can’t be put out of power, only the wealthy get educated properly, the poor go to military service, and they may even start looking at invading other countries. Why create conflict with Canada? To start the narrative that we are evil…and that we must be “protected”. It’s all there, America!! Please wake up!!!

For Trumps agenda, people don't matter. Allies don't matter. He wants to weaken Canada, Mexico, Europe, so oligarchs can gain global control and divide up the spoils. People need to see the big picture through trumps and putin's eyes. Putin must be drooling at this point.

Canada and Europe must become a block against the USA

I’m an American (I’m embarrassed to say) but I am proud to say I completely oppose Trump & Musk’s plan to turn us into or over to Russia. They are in alliance with the corrupt project 2025 and Putin. They are traitors to America. Sadly the world must not trust them. They LIE. They are actively destroying the USA. Trump and Musk need to rule Mars. DEPORT BOTH OF THEM TO SPACE. I support Canada, Gaza, Greenland and Mexico. I WOULD DEPORT TRUMP AND MUSK IF I COULD. They are CRIMINALS and have no legitimacy in my America. Dirty Traitors.

New Zealand, Australia, Canada and Europe must cease to share any intelligence with the US, otherwise it will be leaked to Russia.

Stand Tall Canada - the World is watching you stand against another murderous dictator in waiting.. Canada must broach all avenues of economics.. even those in the southern hemisphere.. Australia is one economy.. l was born in Australia.. and stand with the Canadians... the people of the free world must stand together

You don’t have to tell us the obvious! Our president is a feeble minded fool and he has been a failure his whole life! The republicans have no backbone Musk said he will put his money up in the next election! We want to see Musk have no money! We want to see X taken off of the airwaves! I’m from a state that voted this idiot in to office and I want you to make the red states pay tremendously that will give us the numbers to stop this criminal regime! May god bless Canada and I will only spend my money with products from Canada that America can’t prosper from! There are many with us on this fight that we must win and we shall friends in Canada! Signed old man from Ohio with a brain and a heart!

Canada must impose tariffs on energy , don't be weak, don't back down , what are you waiting for Canada ?? \ngo for broke, make the moscow agents feel it

And let me be very clear people we must stand with our allies other countries and Nation especially Canada and other nations to defeat this white supremacist hatred that they have at their doorsteps we need our allies to make this world a better place for all if we stand back and sit back and do nothing and let these white privileged people tear down everything our ancestors died for that they have been lynched for burns and we lost our families loved ones today's white supremacist privilege white people's hair in this country today it's time for a change it's time for a reckon people we are all together make no difference what color are Creed you are we cannot let these white supremacists burn our country down to the ground

As a disenfranchised American citizen, I stand with Canada, Ukraine, and any other nation willing to stand up to this bullying coward. I absolutely DO NOT blame Canada, Mexico or anyone else trying to protect their populations. Imagine having a government that would do that. trump must go. he is a threat to the entire world.

You guys hate america. Cnn hates america. The tarifs are because canada isnt securing their border. But you guys must want the fetanyal to keep coming in. Also, you seen zelesnky say usa will send their children to die in ukraine, you see the eu trying to send troops to ukraine which will literally start ww3, even canada wants that. Yet you guys are all for it. Cnn and the left are enemies of the usa.

Mr Trudeau must understand, the majority of Americans voted to financially destroy Canada and then seizevit by military force for two simple reasons, 1) Natural Resources and 2) so United Healthcare can privatize healthcare and exorbitantly charge every single former Canadian outrageous health insurance fees, then deny services.

Canada: There are plenty of Americans 100% with you and the rest of our allies. These are not my presidents (we apparently have two) and my sincere hope is that they will not only be removed from office very soon, but thereafter tried, prosecuted, and imprisoned for high treason against the United States and for defrauding its people. Those of us not fully brainwashed by the right-wing propaganda apparatus are seething with rage and focused on fast and appropriate justice, however it must be achieved. This criminal behavior masquerading as politics will be punished to the maximum extent of the very laws that are being scoffed at by Trump, Vance, Musk, and the rest of the mafioso GOP. History will correct those that choose to remain in tow to lawlessness and treason, and oligarchic fascism will not hold sway in our nation. Let this moment be a powerful reminder of how fragile democracy is and how vigilant we all must be to preserve it.

What a farce! Trudeau must get off the American media! He has stepped down as PM therefore no longer represents Canada ?

Reality is tariffs will create inflation and inflation eats the debt away, so as the world currency , trump is playing his cards well....canada's GDP is weak we must become a more productive country an cut bureaucracy...

Idiots won a political contest often feel revolutionary and decide to export it to other countries. Maoism, Leninism, Islamic Rev in Iran.. now Trump and Vance think they must correct EU and Canada and elsewhere as they think they are correcting US.

This is a great speech by Trudeau! He has the perfect tone and sounds like the leader a nation would want at this time in history. Must be nice. This is what MAGA wanted. Let them enjoy it and all its repercussions! Will always love you Canada! Hopefully you forgive the half of our populations who despise this moronic, obese turd. The other half do not deserve your forgiveness!

To our European friends, be careful. American hostility looks bad right now. But the bigger danger is Russia disinformation. America is hostile to Canada and Europe because Putin is using disinformation to radicalize the citizens of democratic countries. America has fallen victim and is divided today. Don't let Russia do the same thing to you. I am already noticing European also becoming radicalized slowly. Russian disinformation must stop now or Europe will fall apart the very same way. The very first step is to learn how Russian disinformation works, including Russian bots and trolls. And use social media less.

I stand With Canada ??, EU ,UK , UKRAINE ???..this mad man Should be removed NOW 25Th Amendment Now he must Be stopped at All Cost hes tanking our economy and taking jobs from Americans but Gave all Of us ?..Not smart ?.. Respectfully...Start a garden and protest every chance you can..Call write ...senetors...They need your votes ..?????✊??????

Trudeau is the enemy of Canada does not protect. It has not done anything good for Canadians and is strictly communism trying to do his thing for the new world form. He’s the one that must be taken out our fights within Canada against Trudeau.

We in the EU should stand by Canada and offer whatever support is necessary, including financial grants if needed. We should also match Canada by imposing our own 25% tariffs on the same goods and services, acting as a force multiplier. If the ‘Mango Mussolini’ refuses to listen to reason, he must feel the consequences of these actions. Hang in there, Canada! You are an incredible tough people and while your country is mentally prepared for this trade war, the US have not given it a single thought… they will be surprised and the madman will fold

True Americans stand with all people who are fair, honest and DEMOCRATIC in their thinking...that includes the people of Canada and Mexico. I'm not altogether certain about the Chinese but we'll see if or how this impacts them and the reaction from there. That BUM knows precisely who those tariffs will benefit and it's not the people who work so hard in order to live their lives. I'm not crazy about Free Trade either but it is what it is.... This is retaliation...pure and simple. Anyone who crosses him will live to regret it...he'll make certain of it. He must be stopped and stopped NOW!

I am American and i disavow are evil leadership. Trump is a dark thing to happen to this country. I stand with Canada and Trudeau. These are dark times. Maga is very popular here and I think vance could be the next president for 8 years. Maga is evil and must be defeated.

Now that the US is led by a madman, Canada, Europe, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand must strengthen their ties and cooperation. It's time to build a new alliance based on shared values and a commitment to freedom and democracy—because the US is falling, slowly turning into an idiocratic dystopia ruled by a corrupt oligarchy, just like Russia. We must also deepen our ties with other democracies worldwide and keep fighting for just causes and a better future.
