As an American let me say I am sorry and embarrassed. Let’s wait this guy out.

As an American and live near the border of Canada ?? in western ny ? I’m sorry to the people of Canada ? trump is the worse to take office our country. And he lied to our people

D: I'm sorry to be an American

I'm sorry, that's not anti-Americanism. Word choices matter, and this was intentional. Think what you will of Trudeau or Canada, the reason people are turning away from networks like CNN is at least in part because you continue to pay people who are incentivized to frame everything as pro-America or anti-America. Some better choices might have included: frustrated, honest, distressed, resolved. Nothing Trudeau said was in any way anti-American.

American here who voted against Trump in 2020 and 2024… I’m so sorry on behalf of my country. Dark times are truly ahead.

Thank you PM Trudeau for your leadership!!! I wish we in America, had that! I am so sorry you and the rest of the world have to deal with this disaster Donald has created!! We as Americans are suffering, but we appreciate so much you all having solid boundaries to hopefully keep our cancer from spreading in the world!!

As an American, I am so sorry ? Many of us stand with Canada and Ukraine, our allies and friends.

American here…. Aaaaaagghhh!!!! It’s insanity here!!!! ??I’m so sorry to Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, Europe ?

As an American, I am sorry for this DISGUSTING behavior. WE STAND WITH CANADA!!!!!!\nAmerica doesn't \nwant a relationship Russia..... what does Putin have on DONNY DO LITTLE. TRUMPY DO needs to be STOPPED he is fucking our country.\nRepublicans this is all on you, grow a spine!!!!!

Trump is lying to the American people like he always has and does, the man can not tell the truth. The American people are sincerely sorry.

Trudeau is a leader. Trump is a follower of Putin. I'm so sorry, Canada. This isn't what most Americans want. Trump is a shame, and he won't last.

As an american... I'm so very sorry ? Trump is a criminal and a fascist. I'm so sorry.

I'm so embarrassed to be an American right now. Canada, you are a class act, and there are so many of us here in the USA that are truly sorry for the shameful behavior of our UNELECTED President Musk and his side-piece Trump.

The American people don't want the tarrifs. I am so sorry Canada and Mexico

OMG... THE TRUTH! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau! You ARE the voice of reason, strength, dignity and intelligence! As an American, I am sorry to the lovely people of Canada. I am mostly sorry for myself having to live through this. Keep the peace Mr. Trudeau, and thank YOU!

I'm an American. And I stand with Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, and all of our European allies. I do not stand with my president and my government. I'm sorry Canada. I didn't vote for this.

This American wants to say: I'm sorry. Most of us do not want this madness or any bad blood with our neighbors to the north...or even the south. But, many Americans voted for the Orange dipsh*t so...again, most of us are sorry about this.

Sorry but you are going to lose ! You don’t want to work with American ?? \n\nDon’t worry ! President Trump is going a great job! You sir are the problem . Shame on you !!! 3:17

As Americans, I feel sad and embarrassed, as some of us get blindsided by the idiot/stupid/crook/traitor Dumb Trump as president, we are sorry to all our allies. some of us still has moral and integrity. sorry

Sorry but you are going to lose ! You don’t want to work with American ?? \n\nDon’t worry ! President Trump is going a great job! You sir are the problem . Shame on you !!!

Please don't assume all Americans are into this crazy plan and man called Trump. He is not my President, never was, never will be. I am so sorry that this is happening for no good reason.

This is disgusting!!!!!! I'm so sorry that the American people voted for this madness

Canada we're sorry, our president is a Moron. Sincerely, Americans

I am so sorry to the people of Canada! I am ashamed to call myself American. I would move to Canada in a minute if I could. If anything, I will be buying Canadian products over our own.

OH JUSTIN YOU ARE SO RIGHT THIS IS VERY PERSONAL YOU MADE FUN OF HIM AND HE IS TAKING REVENGE, BUT PRESIDENT CHUMP OBVIOUSLY CANNOT SEPERATE BUSINESS FROM HIS PERSONAL PROBLEMS, THE WHOLE WORLD DOES NOT LIKE THIS GUY WHEN HIS TERM IN OFFICE IS OVER THE ONLY TWO PLACES THAT HE WOULD BE WELCOME IN IS HIS HOME COUNTRY AND RUSSIA AND I AM NOT SO SURE ABOUT RUSSIA I WROTE ON YOUTUBE BEFORE THAT THIS GUY IS SINKING THE AMERICAN FLEET FAST AND MORE THOROUGHLY THAN THE JAPANESE DID AT PEARL HAROR MAN AT THIS MOMENT THE TWO WORST NATIONALITIES TO BE IS AMERICAN AND RUSSIAN THEY BOTH ARE CAUSING GREAT HARM NOT ONLY TO THE WORLD, BUT MOSTLY TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND COUNTRIES TALK ABOUT SELFISH LEADER'S. PRESIDENT CHUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING WITH THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW IT IS NOT IF WE WILL ENGAGE EACH OTHER IN A WORLD WAR, BUT WHEN THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW ARE STEERING THE HUMAN RACE IN THAT DIRECTION AND PRESIDENT CHUMP YOU AND PRESIDENT POUTINE WILL BE CHIEFLY RESPONSIBLE. THE LEADER'S WE HAVE ELECTED TODAY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE MISERY IN THE WORLD TODAY. LEADER'S LIKE PRESIDENT KENNEDY, GHANDI, CHURCHILL ETC. TODAY WE HAVE LEADER'S LIKE TRUDEAU WHO CREATED MISERY AND DIVISION IN CANADA THE FORE MENTIONED LEADER'S ALREADY METIONED ARE DIRECTED BY PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION AND HYPOCRACY. PRESIDENT ZELINSKY I AM AFFRAID LEADER'S LIKE YOU THAT HAVE COURAGE INTEGRITY AND STRENGHT ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN I AM SORRY TO TELL YOU BUT I THINK IN REALTY YOU STAND ALONE NOT MANY LEADER'S TODAY PUT COUNTRY AND COUNTRYMEN AND WOMEN BEFORE THEIR PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION, BUT IF YOU SUCCEED YOU WILL BE STRONGER AND FAR BETTER OFF GOD BLESS

I am an American and I want to say stay strong to Canadians. I am really sorry that this happened due to a bunch of idiots who voted for Trump.

Americans don’t want any kind of war with our Allies! I’m in Washington state, and we love Canada ?? I’m so so sorry that the orange stain has done this to you and ourselves. ?????wow, what you did at your border is amazing! Our current leaders, in control,have no honor!?????

Lord I am so sorry you felt the need to stroke djt's ego by claiming he's smart . He is not. He is evil and once he gets what he wants from an individual, organization or country, you are expendable. Maybe st decent Americans do not want this or want to see our Northern neighbors suffer. We are in this together and we will resist this together. Canada strong!????????✌️

I’m so sorry ?. This is a Trump thing. Most Americans don’t want this bullshit either. You watch Mr. Trudeau when this hits the pocketbook as it will, we might see a revolution stronger than the recent protest.

I did not vote for Trump. Nor did my family and friends. I am deeply ashamed to be an American right now. I stand with Canada and Ukraine. I am so sorry for all that is happening.

Thank you Canada. Maybe feeling Trump's policies directly will get into the heads of the selfish MAGA Americans and shake them free from their cult. Sadly, the welfare of their fellow Americans wasn't enough to vote for democracy, and now they will have to personally feel the pain. We, the defenders of democracy, will feel it too, but it's necessary to shake some sense into these idiots. This is years of Russian propaganda coming to fruition. Sorry Canada, I have voted against this, I have written and called my representatives, I have written and called politicians across the states begging them to stand up for us. I have gone to protests, I have done everything I can do while still remaining peaceful. Hopefully your country's justified retaliation can prevent the inevitable next step.\n\n-American progressive, USMC veteran, ally to Canada, Ukraine, and Europe.

Little Trump is not a president nor is he a businessman. He’s a scared little rat a draft dodger and think America if he was afraid to fight in the war then what makes us think that he would protect us now he’s a scared rat. He’s afraid of his own shadow. The family kids and the grandchildren are the ones that are going to feel the damage he will do to this country in four years. I feel so sorry for our men and women in the military now and our veterans are taking a pounding very sad . He’s only doing it to benefit for his own greed. Very sad human being. He’s miserable he’s depressed. You can see it in his face. He was a piece of shit to the American people before he ever even thought of being a president he owes contractors millions of dollars through his life no wonder he has a bull’s-eye on his back and they say he can’t sleep at night well, I wonder why he fucked the American people and he will keep fucking American people nobody will stop him He will keep fucking us until he’s done. And after all that damage that he will do to this country, in the four years it will be so damaged. It will never heal.

CNN = pro Canada Anti American .....makes me sick ....Canadian = someone punches them in the face and they say I'm sorry .

Canada, this American girl is sorry

Trump's a tiny little narcissistic puppet of Russia. Canada has class, and they will not let him be a petulant bully. As an American, I am embarrassed by Trump's treatment of our allies, and I support Canada. Sorry, Canada. Trump's an idiot.

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, many of us Americans hate this too! I appreciate you distinguishing your relationship with the American people (those of us who are not for this), from the cruel leadership in the US who are imposing these harmful policies. I admire your leadership. You are a true, dignified, level headed leader. I wish we had that here in the US. I'm so sorry for what my government is doing to Canada?

On behalf of everyone I know, and the majority of the American people, I sincerely apologize for the disgraceful, shameful, terrible way this so-called government is treating our closest friend and ally. I am SO sorry.

American people stand with our friend Canada sorry we have a president that don’t care about no one but himself always keep in mind. There are Americans here that don’t think with the same mine as him.?

This is what a man of integrity, diplomacy and true passion for LEADING looks like. I feel so sorry for us Americans. The majority will suffer.

im american--I stand with Canada. Im so sorry this is happening---Please know we love Canada and agree with your actions.

We Americans understand this dilemma and support your right to fight back. We don't want this, but Trump and his sycophants do not care about us. I'm sorry this is unfolding.?

I wish us Americans could actually think intelligently, but we are stupid for electing trump and think that that clown has all he answers when all he does is destroy everything he touches. He does not care about anyone and should be removed from office. To the world, I am sorry our country cannot treat our friends correctly with respect and dignity . We elect stupid people. We have no excuse and do not deserve friends we have to the world.

Up until now I was only going to boycott America until the orange shlt had vacated, but since Americans have done nothing to stop this the boycott will be permanent. Sorry, but 2/3 of you are 100% responsible for this happening and 100% of you are doing nothing about it.

Trump did,not the majority of the United States, trump is the worse president we have had in decades. please do not blame all the American people. We don't want this either. I am so sorry this happened to you and Canada.

Sorry Canada but now we have a Putin lover and oligarchs running our country now thanks to the morons that voted him in! The American people love our allies. ?❤????

Honestly I don't know why people hate on prime minister Trudeau I think he did an amazing job during a time when nobody could predict what was happening during covid and I am glad he is speaking out because in my opinion Trump has lost his mind I am not joking I think he either has dementia or dementia? and he has been making fun of Canada ever since he got elected again and what is wrong with Americans that they re-elected this person that made their country a laughingstock honestly it makes no sense to me❤ and from him saying he's going to make Canada a state of his we are bigger than your whole f**** country you stupid bastard? sorry but he makes me so angry and yes I am a proud Canadian❤

American here, ❤ Canada!! Stand strong against Trump and his bully tactics. I am so sorry.

From Spain, all my respect to Canada. I'm sorry for the americans who didnt vote for that mad evil traitor.

To all Canadian citizens, we Americans who did not vote for Trump are very sorry! We know he’s an idiot. Stand strong against him. Maybe, just maybe the clowns in Congress here might get some cues!

I'm so sorry that our dictator is doing this. Please know that most Americans do not support this or him.
