Call it out!

It's time for us Canadians to stop calling the US an ally. They aren't allies to anyone but the Axis. The US is the bad guy.

Thank you sir....I'm ashamed to call myself an American believe me I never voted for this maniac! I do not agree with this government at all!

Its ok that Trudeau called Trump “Donald” because Trump has been disrespectful to our Prime Minister calling him “Governor”

USA is not a trustworthy partner anymore. USA prefers Russia ans Israel, spits on Ukraine, Mexico and on my canadian face, EU to come. Calling our Prime Minister a Governor is such a disrespectful behavior. US citizens voted for this, Bravo gang de caves

I have heard many people call Trump many things. Accusing him of being smart is probably the most off base thing I've ever heard anybody say about him? There is nothing smart about idiot Trump

THIS is how you address Trump and his administration, not only addressing the trade war but directly saying that Trump has sided with Putin and Russia. \nDiplomacy went out the window when Trump and Vance attacked Zelensky in the people’s house. Diplomacy went out the window when Trump blamed Zelensky for the war in Ukraine and called him a “dictator”

If Putin is a murder? Then so is America? So is Ukraine? So is Palestine? So is Israel? In the 1990 Middle Eastern war USA ? tried so diligently to destroy the WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION!! ?? killing so many innocent people calling them terrorists. What do we call this action? GODLY ? Everyone is trying to show their power through Global Politics that they are greater than others and trying to rule every country in this world before fixing their own. Trudeau has brought Canada to poverty in his so called successful 2 terms government. He should think before he talks or like Hitler he should rehearse his speech in front of a mirror before opening his mouth in public, it's a whole lot of crap coming out in public and losing his sane ability. ?

Go back and listen to Trump on tariffs. If a country is fair with America, America will be fair with them. Americans do not realize how many tariffs we pay as a country. There are also countries that do not allow us to sell in their countries although they sell to America.\n\nFor years Canada has allowed a steady flow of illegals and drugs into our country. Now only after Trump calling them out they have started putting A FEW programs into place. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN THE LAST YEARS.

Your people call for becoming the 51 state

Trump does not see Putin/Russia as an enemy. Trump is making Russia a USA ally and our allies our enemies. The sooner world leaders and American citizens come to terms with that and start calling it what it is, the sooner something can start to be done about it.

This is called directly speaking? CNN is no wonder fake news.

This guy calling Putin a dictator when he himself is one. Froze and prosecuted peoples banks account who gave money to the trucker convoy. The Judge found his actions unlawful.

Talk as much as you like, but at which point are you generals going to call this for what it is? - TREASON! Your country is going to Hell in a hand basket and you’re all sitting around doing nothing. Crazy country.

DEAR PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU, I AGREE THAT THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT HAS NOT BEEN FAIR TO ITS ALLIEDS AND TRADING PARTNERS AND THAT WE HAVE TO ACT IMMEDIATELY AGAINST THE UNITED STATES. \n\nI HAVE TO SAY, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY CANADA OR EUROPE EVER TRUST THE UNITED STATES WITHOUT HAVING SOME CONTINGENCY PLAN, KNOWING THE KIND OF TRAITOROUS MENTALITY AMERICAN GOVERNMENTS HAVE ALWAYS HAD, THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR POCKETS AND MAKING MONEY AT THE EXPENSE OF THE WEAK AND THE GULLIBLE COMMERCIAL AND POLITICAL PARTNER. \n\nONE THING I DISAGREE....., THAT IS CALLING THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT MURDEROUS, WHEN IN FACT IT WAS NATO AND ITS BRIGHT IDEA OF ANNEXATION OF UKRAINE TO NATO KNOWING THAT THEY WOULD BE BREAKING AGREEMENTS ESTABLISHED DURING THE COLD WAR OF NO PROLIFERATION OF NATO, IN FACT, NATO STARTED BREAKING THAT PACT WHEN IT ANNEXED FINLAND AND ESTONIA. RUSSIA KEPT QUIET, BUT NOW NATO TRIES TO ANNEX UKRAINE, THAT WAS THE LAST STRAW FOR RUSSIA, BESIDES THE BLATAN MISTREATMENT OF RUSSIAN-UKRAINIANS BY THE UKRAINIAN GOVERNMENT. \n\nNATO USES DEMOCRACY AS A PUNCH LINE, WHEN WE ALL KNOW THIS IS A DIRTY WAR FUELLED BY ECONOMIC INTERESTS AND GREED!\n\nMR. PRIME MINISTER, DO YOU KNOW WHO THE MURDERER IS?.....IT'S MR. ZELENSKY WHO HAS ANNIHILATED THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF ITS OWN PEOPLE, UKRAINIANS WHO WERE USED AS CANNON FODDER....AND NATO THE INSTIGATORS OF THIS WAR.\n\nTHE WORLD CANNOT BE THAT BLIND TO NOT SEE IT!!!

All this is cause by a puppet who is a convicted felon criminal we call our president....Could it get worse?absolutely impeach D*ck Stain Donald Trump and arrest and deport Elon Musk for being a POS billionaire and human being...MAGA SHIT ? God help us all from this madness

Did he just call the Orange ? dumb ??? Vance is also dumb and a bootlicker

Im so glad to see and hear sane leaders speak… unlike otthers so called ones…?

I'm a Native American fm Arizona. Been ur neighbor for years!! Inspite of what Trump is doing nothing will change that!! This man call Trump is definitely not a smart man!! Otherwise, it would have been business as usual. He is rushing his agenda only to cause conflicts, gain attention and he doesn't have a whole lot of time (3 yrs 8 months)!! I'm sure the next president after he's gone will fix all the damages his caused and done!!???

These leaders are ridiculous, they call it War when tariffs are now equal

I'm an American. I stand with America... And this is called negotiation, deal with it. Trudeau is a stepped down in popular leader in Canada. ?

Man dont call trump my president its insulting...To all our allies, most of us REAL americans dont like trump. Dont give in to him he wants you to cave first..DONT

I'm an American. I stand with America... And this is called negotiation, deal with it. Trudeau is a stepped down loser.

How did he keep a straight face when he called Trump smart

I was never a fan of Trudeau and his governments policies but today I am proud to call him my country's leader.

Bravo Canada and I’m sorry our so called President and his minions are so very ignorant.

Good for you Canada. T this American stands with you and what you need to do for the betterment of your people, unlike what our so called President is doing.

What sort of creep would call Trump smart? Switched off at that point.

It’s time Canada calls in the 400 billion marker it owns on USA debt. Maybe save it for later, maybe coordinate with China to call in their own 1 trillion marker. Now that will hurt- and I don’t think/ hope it’ll get there. But, if it comes to it…….?

Stand firm Canada. Hopefully this so called President we have will be replaced quickly, once the last hold outs get fed up with him.

The Orange Reich makes us the worst neighbor.\nWe fought it but couldn't overcome the vote suppression, per psychiatrists media brainwashing, and hundreds of millions billionaires spent on electing the Mad Orange Dictator so he would enrich them and hurt the other 99.9999997% of us and the world.\nCanada, please strike hard and call his bluff by making his supporters feel the insanity of his promises to hurt them and you. \nIf we can still vote next year, we'll switch the majority in Congress. \nThe majority of people here know you are a wonderful neighbor who has sent troops to fight with us in war, took in tens of thousands on 9/11, sent an extra Super Scooper to help during the LA fires, and been our best trading partner. \nI'm so sorry.\nP.S. Has anyone else noticed that MOD looks extra orange right now?

Trudeau just peaked. \n\nHe’s had his stumbles, and there’s so much to criticize him for, but today, I’m proud to call him my prime minister.

I love how he called him Donald. Donald Duck - quack.

Ñame calling and Ad HOMINUm his first sentence. Call a Waaambulance!!

It’s an important wake-up call for Canadians—less focus on encouraging domestic hard drug consumption and merely selling raw materials, and more on producing value-added goods. We should reinvest in small, innovative Canadian businesses with less bureaucracy.

*I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This reality, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it. It's -- it's repulsive! Isn't it? I must get out of here. I must get free*\n--The Smiths & Me. About Trumpers and America.\nI am a Real Republican and I barely even recognize what we've become. Trumpers are a plague.

That was very kind of Justin Trudeau to call Donald Trump. A smart man because he is anything but that.

I remember when we had a president that could speak in complete sentences without any name calling and pointing fingers at everyone else. Canada, you are doing exactly what you do when you see a bully, you stand up and fight back. As an American, I’m so embarrassed by trump’s behavior but sadly I am not surprised.

We're with you Canada. We don't want this, either. Because you are a gentleman, like all presidents should be, you can't call him what he really is, a bully, spoiled brat, and incompetent Douch bag. Unfortunately we don't have a gentleman in the White House.

Justin Trudeau is sucha clown ?? just turn off the power and call it a day

Trudumb, a friend dose not take and never return generosity. The current administration is just demonstrating how much of the American tax dollars go to Canada. About $300B, sounds like you all get more than any US state. \n\nFYI: Canada has the best fence in the world…it’s called the United States of America!!!

A couple of things.\n\n1. Great that he basically called Trump an idiot.\n2. He blew up Trump's lies about fentanyl coming in calimly and with facts.\n3. He did not call Trump 'President' when addressing him. He simply called him Donald. No title, no respect.\n\nNot a fan of Trudeau, but he was absolutely spot on with this. Go to hell, Donald Trump.

He called him just Donald!!!!!? I find this side of Canada ?? sexy!!!!

Our government does not care about disabled, elderly, or anyone except his billionaire buddy's and giving the m tax breaks, this man spea9is a real president no name calling g, no threats, no bullying no blaming Biden, Obama

American here. So sorry for the way Canada has been treated by our so called President and his administration who are trying to destroy our country and our reputation across the globe. We do not agree with what he is doing, understand that we don’t agree. Hopefully we can get our relations across the world back to the way it was. SOON MY FRIENDS SOON

So when are you going to talk about your border. When are you going to call an election so we can flush you down the drain and get our country back ? And no we are not going to boo the USA anthem. Trudeau is a disgrace

Why the fuck are you calling a response an escalation?

I am so ashamed that our tyrant in chief has done this to the people of a country I love to visit. Stand strong Canada. Please call a lie a lie.

The 23rd Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudea will go down in history as the guy who stood up to the felon and sex offender Donald Trump. The so called 47th President of the United(?) States of Mid-America. Trumps playing Whack-a-Mole with his closest neighbours and European Allies. They aren’t going to forget what he’s and his supporters are doing.

Because, that he is deserved to call him like that!!Period!!
