A well spoken leader who is looking out for his people while recognizing that most Americans do not support trumps actions. Sadly trump doesn’t give a rats ass about anyone but himself.

What’s sad is that this speech will never appear on Fox News @foxnews

I have never seen in my entire life anything bad between our Canadian people..this is sad..very childish..

Justin Tredeau is such a gentleman. So intelligent. I'm sorry this is happening. I voted for Harris and am brokenhearted still. Trump isn't intelligent ?. I can tell you the vast majority of Americans cannot stand this poor excuse for a human being. I would leave the states but I am not well enough sadly. We want to get Trump and his synchophants out of the Whitehouse. Pray with us and for us that we can do this. Much love to Canada ?? ❤️.

Captain fuckin chaos is trumps plan. we are outclassed for real. I took the time to review some of our most recent presidents. The conduct of this POS is really degrading to what we have tried to become. REALLY SAD no class in this crowd and whats worse they seem to be good with it. WAKE TO FUCK UP. PLEASE

As a canadian this is really sad. hopefully they dont invade and kill us all. its scary

There are no words in any language that adequately describe just how big of a moron Donald Trump is. Its genuinely terrifying how so many people support this sad excuse for a man and look to him as a leader.

American here. A Never Trumper to the core. With sadness for the first time to be an American ,,, millions of us despise this and fought it and continue on doing so ,,but utmost respect to Canada # with a sad heart ❤?

Poor United Soviets of America. They lost their Freedom, and torched Democracy. Will be sad seeing them fight for eggs and they pull out their stocks and run the banks and start hording toilet paper. USA cannot be trusted and will never be trusted again. RIP puppet of Russia. Just stay on your side of the border.

Sad to see him leaving. Such a great president.

Trump gets fact checked by JT! It’s sad when we have to get the truth from another country, thank you JT! Wish he was our president

I wish I could move to Canada where there are actual “rational thinking leaders”. It is so refreshing to listen to President Trudeau…he seems so sane, so even tempered and SO normal and he presents himself as a very mature thinking adult with excellent leadership, communication and motivational skills. So sad that we cannot say that about Trump and his pathetic “cult-like” followers!

Canada has been treating the United States like their personal ATM for way too long. You bring nothing to the table, but you have the audacity to ask for everything. It’s sad how most people don’t understand politics and just rely on media to tell them how to think and feel Russia is not a threat to no one but they have been constantly attack attacked by everyone especially the United States. You guys talk war but you’re not ready for World War III. No one can ever be ready for that

What Trump seems to try to get at most is the unfair act of the USMCA. Most trades benefited Canada, while Canada refused to provide the same fair trades. Sometimes Trump does say things that may have gone off track like fentyl handling on Canada's end and border handling. It seems like our borders at the time were less strict on the American side versus the Canadian side of the border. Trump did state multiple times that most countries like Canada were unfair to USA. Even with the USMCA, America got screwed by Mexico as will. America has been there helping and supporting and submitting to every country. Yet failed to support our own people when we need it, especially to clear up our own debts. Sadly, America is falling behind due to poor handling of Government Democrat corruption. I am neutral as both parties don't always provide the best solution for everyone. You have to pick who can help the American people. Seeing how corrupt the Democrats has ran America and the defacto behind of all the wars and money laundering has surprised me, and I hope the change with Trump will help everyone realize how screwed we all are in correcting those corruption that isn't really needed.

It's incredibly sad when world leaders have to call out trumps lies on the international stage because our own public is too stupid to realize them

It’s a sad day today in North America.

AMERICA IS OVER RATED AND RACIST. IM A AFRICAN AMERICAN LIVING IN SAN FRANCISCO. ITS TRULY SAD TO SEE THIS PLACE LOOK CRAZY LIKE THIS. ALIENATING US FROM ALL OTHER COUNTRIES BECAUSE TRUMP SAYS SO

There's a fine line between genius and insanity, as time goes, sadly it seems Musk/Trump fall to the latter.

With Canada here...this is going to hurt US consumers and business more, and with inflation still an issue, this will only make things worse for us here. Where are our elected officials? Where are our Republican Senators and Congressmen? Why are they not speaking up for us the people??\nThis is a sad day for America!! Canada is our friend!!

I feel sick, sad, angry, and scared with everything going on right now. As a veteran, my heart is absolutely broken.\n\nWe're stuck between a rock and a hard place right now. The MAGA refuse to see or believe what's going on. They've been 100% brainwashed. The people in our government who can do something are standing back and laughing us off. It's very surreal. And very few of us have been able to save up enough to move. And moving to another country is incredibly expensive and difficult.\n\nI did not vote for Trump. Many didn't. Those who did are too proud to admit that what's going on is wrong. So long as it punishes people who think differently than them, they're glad to cut off their own arms to do so.

ITS A SAD TIME

Dear Canadians we are so sorry what this despicable president is doing! Millions of Americans are your friends. We are embarrassed and so sad what trump is doing. ?

Another true leader showing how sick, sad, and pathetic the Republican Party and American so-called 'conservatives' are. Tump is the worst president, maybe the worst national leader in modern history. Thank god other nations have not succumbed to the Putin loving sickness of the Republican Party.

We don’t want this! Wake up America! I voted for her. These are sad times in America. Shameful. Thank you CNN.

It is very sad that a once called the land of the free and democracy, is now allied to the most corrupt, evil and anti democratic land of Russia. I hope the Americans can get their stuff together and kick that yellow hairdo and send him and his dog named Vance alone to Russia.

I’m stunned that people still watch CNN?! Sad!

As a conservative American it’s sad to see this, the great white north and Canadians are supposed to be our greatest allies im sorry guys

For decades, the United States has fought communism. It was one of the worst things there was and you could be accused of being. \nNow, the United States has turned its back on its allies in this struggle and instead followed the cause of the Communists. It is sad to witness.

sad he had to pretend that orangutan was smart, definitely untrue but the pathological narcissist cant listen to anyone who isnt glazing him. pathetic human

This is such a sad situation!!

No comparison between the two leaders. USA has a joke. So sad.

Sad day for the USA when your President is purposely destroying your economy for his personal profit and gain .

This whole situation is so sad... My utmost respect for Canada's demonstration of controlled strength in this whole ordeal ? I'll be sure to buy some Canadian maple syrup tomorrow ??????❤ Love from the Netherlands

We shouldn’t hurt a friend and neighbor. ? Sorry Canada. This is very sad.

This is so sad. Who is advising this guy.

Sadly I’m an American democrat that actually feels relieved that Canada is there. I feel like they are the grownups watching us learn from our bad choices. Thank you Canada.

Great speech, wise words, sad overall on the consequences. ?

So sad !! Seems the U.S. is against the world!B

As a 60 year old American, I wish I had a President as erudite and intelligent as President Trudeau.\n Sadly, America ended up with a stooge.\nGo Canada.

As an American, I sadly stand with Canada bcuz our govt is just something else

Sanity from Canada,madness from the Whitehouse,no winners only losers,sadly except Putin?

Don't get me wrong: This is sick and sad at the same time! Stand strong, Canada! Europe stands with you! Maybe we Europeans are going to import a lot more goods from you now, because Europe already plans to import much less from the... whatever is left over of the USA. But does Trudeau in this speech somehow sound like Dr. Breen in Half-Life 2 on the screens in City 17? ^^

Well I can say that Black people has nothing to do with all of this. WE have been fighting for peace and equality for ever and ever. I will admit that I do not understand politics but we understand Hate in the worst ways. I also know no one should hurt there friends. This hole thing makes me Sad . All I can say is I am sorry.

As a Mexican-American it really makes me sad seeing our relationship with our long friend Canada crumble.

Canada is being too gentle in its initial response. Why not go full throttle right from the get go. It’s shameful what “the most powerful country in the world”,”the land of the free” or whatever arrogant nickname the USA wants to go by. It makes me so sad to feel so angry at the USA knowing that so many of its citizens are good, great people. How can a country which has contributed so so much to the world become so reviled? I’m agog.

I admire you Prime Minister Trudeau Canada must be so proud of you. It’s so sad for America that this is happening.

It is heartening to hear Trudeau speak strongly with honesty, respect and dignity. How sad and unfortunate it is for the US an 18:04 d the world that the US has a lying narcisstic felon rapist in Trump, a man with no dignity or respect.

sad when a leader of one democratic country has to explain to another country's people what the realities are of voting for a despot and where hate gets you in the global community - in their hip pocket even before they get satisfaction from the hate vote they chose over friends and allies

So so, sad what the president of the United States is doing. What's next. SCARY

SUA has become Gilead. So sad ?
