Maybe Trudeau will come around when Canadians find out they've been duped by him.

I like he used the word dumb, maybe trump can understand that. US president is not so big in using deep words

How about you address the problems in your shitty country then maybe we would reconsider. But honestly, this isn’t going to affect America one percent as it will affect Canada so I really don’t care. Tax my syrup big whoop.

Trump isn't smart. 71 IQ, maybe he's an idiot

Maybe Trump loves inflation, if he has fixed rate debt on all his real estate

It's just Trump. One dumb man who, for some dumb reason, speaks and represents a lot of people under the name of the country they live in. Maybe someone will figure out that someone can only make so many bad decisions before they remove that person from making more bad decisions. We have the village idiot in charge of things. Most[people in America like you and other leaders more than the person who is pretending to lead here. He's the fool of fools. You don't have to call him a smart guy just to make him feel good, he just does dumb things all the time. Either way, it's a fun show, I only hope the missiles start to fly and we all destroy ourselves. \n \nHenry Limpet: Doesn't it kind of give you a thrill of hope, George? \nGeorge Stickel: Hope for what, Henry? \nHenry Limpet: With the war in Europe and new weapons being invented all the time, why, well what if men were actually foolish enough to destroy themselves completely? Then, you see, the fish in the ocean would develop into a new race of men and - well, this time they might turn out better, you see? \n \nOne can only hope.

The United States has given Canada less than $35.1 million in financial aid in any fiscal year since at least 2001. <<<<<<< MAYBE WE SHOULD TAKE THIS AWAY

Can you Canadians maybe ask your King to have his other countries put tariffs on us down here in the US? What's the point of having one if you don't ask him for a little help when bad guys come after you. My country needs to learn a lesson and the faster it happens, the less pain there is for everyone.

Maybe if Trudeau didn’t assist illegals (and fentanyl) flowing into our country we wouldn’t put tariffs on Canada. MAGA

Maybe just stop the fentanyl?

But Trump promised you a golden era he didnt say for who....apparently for the working middle class- .its looking less shiny for you, ?? Things are going to cost more for all.of us, well- now in Canada our eggs are now cheaper as we have to shop by bus! The Bourbon is off the shelves, and I maybe need to make a new list for help from Santas elves; His billionaire pals, tho will be entering that new golden age, and chumming with Putin to try and appease any Russian rage ! The Donald has acted and now we all pay, the skies today in North America all grey.

Maybe it's because listening to Trump speak for eight years has broken my brain, but it's so weird listening to the leader of a country speak like an actual leader and not suck himself off and complain how he's treated the whole time

Maybe building a Boarder Wall on America's Northern Boarder would be a good idea. Canada is responsible to guard our boarders and allow in only those who we feel qualify. Canada does not close it's boarders to those who wish to leave, nor does the United States close it's boarders to those who wish to leave. The United States is free to put up a wall and a boarder crossing anywhere you wish, stop whoever you want to stop from entering your country. I can tell you that The fastest Boarder Wall that I have ever seen go up is the one that Trump just raised between the United States and Canada, the Tariff Wall. What you have done is put signs on our shelves, buy Canadian. You have taken American Product from the top shelf, to the verry bottom shelf, behind the Made in China. You have closed the Travel Agencies to United States travel, nobody wants to go to your country, and I heard that there is going to be a 250% Tariff on hotel accommodations for Americans visiting Canada. It is not only about the Tariffs on Canada, who Used to be your friends, it is about your new friend Russia, who support Terrorist organizations all over the world, including the ones in Gaza who held Americans Hostage, who supports IRAN who supports Russia in murdering and raping women, kidnapping children in Ukraine, torturing and murdering citizens with their hands tied behind their backs. If this is what America supports, if this is what America does to its Ally's, I hope the taps for the oil and the switch for the electricity are turned off, and we never have to worry about each other ever again.\n\nCanada is a country with an Area roughly the size of the United States, with a population 340 Million is 8 1/2 times larger than Canada at $40 Million, with a GDP 9 1/2 times larger than Canada. America is a Bully.

I hope Americans can't afford to live. I have money and will be fine. Maybe they will realize what they voted for.

CNN comment section glazing the worst leader we have ever had, not a surprise. Maybe if CBC sees this comment section they will turn their comments back on.

What has this got to do with putin tho. Did he allow Fentanyl to enter the United States thru Cananda? No Canada did. Is he the one not doing enough to stop Fentanyl entering the united states? no Canada did. Maybe if Trudeau could just use the effort he is using to oppose America right now to eliminate Fentanyl from Canada. it would resolve the problem.

I don't like Trudeau, but this speech was great. Intelligent when he needed to be, simple when addressing Trump. A strong start to this trade war which as he said, we don't want. I hope along with Ford we hit America where it hurts. Maybe when their groceries skyrocket in price and their trucks are gone they'll really see where their votes went.\n\nI personally can attest I'm no longer buying DOOM: The Dark Ages, or games on Steam for that matter. I cancelled an order I had from Amazon, and I used to buy Reaper Miniatures, which I will no longer be doing. I'm not going to A&W, or any fast-food chain, or restaurant owned by Americans.

This is going to be tough ! Maybe you shouldn't have made us so dependent on the US and shut down our natural resources and ruined our economy. Nice speech douch canoe

Trump voters should be embarrassed for their supporting this deranged person Kamala Harris wouldn’t have us in this position. Trump is so greedy for money there most be something in Ukraine that he wants so he’s allowing Russia to take control of that country. Maybe it’s something to do with some type of precious minerals such as titanium,lithium etc.

Maybe it will come to a Russia, Ukraine deal between Canada and the US,people will suffer, die! It's all part of the real plan ! One world order

Fact check. More fentanyl enters Canada from the USA than the other way around. So maybe the USA needs to work harder at stopping it, not Canada. But then Musk is firing everyone who would do that.

Educated Canadians would think the issue is your drug usage and all the junkies in the US... Maybe address that problem... Guns don't kill people... Drugs don't either until they are ingested... Sounds like the US has a huge Crackhead problem...

He talks like people are stupid maybe Canadians are. i don't know but he is slow

Wait... you just switched away from his remarks when the Prime Minister switched to French? Is it because you don't understand, or don't have translators? Where are your translators CNN? Maybe you should borrow some from the CBC/Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, because if you only listen to half his message, you're only getting half of what he said.

Decades of zombie programming from Fox hypnotized our worse half to believe black is white and down is up. They now somehow believe obviously damaging actions from their low-tone, smooth-brained, moronic orange god are good. We're obviously lining up to Russian wants and not our people. It's wild how dumb many of our people are. Those of us that are sane hear you, Justin. Maybe we'll see the US come to it's senses, but for now, by all means, do what you need to do.

I have seen this relasionship before the film 'Canadian bacon' Maybe John Candy will be back

Brilliant speech by Trudeau?. One of his best speeches ever. A classic. If other leaders called out Trump like this, maybe that would stop him!

Ummm maybe we shouldn't trade with Canada at all

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?

Sane and normal. Truthfulness and thoughtfulness. That's what you are seeing. Maybe americans can try this shit out.

I don’t really understand why we placed tariffs on Canada of all places. Maybe because Trudeau is a corrupt pushover? I don’t think that’s a reason to punish all Canadians, you guys have truly been our greatest ally ~and American Infantry Veteran

Nobody is going to watch the pee-resident of the White House lie to America tonight. Maybe maga'ts will listen but they love to be lied to.

47 is transactional. On every front. We see what appears irrational, nonsensical, maybe even dumb. The question is, what deal has he already made for which he will be rewarded? The consequences 47’s actions spell the tearing down the status quo and the power of democracies around the globe. These things seem to be 47’s goal, not just some unfortunate consequence.

Austrian/European here: so good to hear you!! Thank you, and let's cooperate, Canadians, Mexicans, the majority of the countries of the European Union (maybe not Orban's Hungary), Ukraine ... and many other countries, which continue to fight for liberal democracies

when are all of you sheepeople going to realize that this media is offering only propagandized information. and their newscaster’s probably don’t even realize what they’ve been sold. That's why they’re so good at 4:38 selling us that garbage. I think it was Clinton that legalized us being propagandized. this man was shamed out of his Prime Minister position. he’s no friend to Canada and certainly not a friend to America. he’s been bought off and I’m sure he comes with a high price tag??????\nThe swamp is an ugly place. Maybe it takes an ugly acting man to clean it up. Go Trump! \nI’m turning off the fake news, it’s such a turn off the way they insult our intelligence. Wake up people!

It saddens me to be an American. I wish it wasn’t so, but at the moment that is the truth. Maybe one day I will be a proud American.

Maybe the US should try to figure out why so many of its citizens are using fentanyl and other hard drugs. They're blaming other countries instead of addressing the actual issue of addiction and the market for those drugs. Maybe stop buying the stuff and there wouldn't be a market for it...

WOW Treudeu nailed it. Wish they just joined our European union. Imagine the strenght. Does Donald know how much American companies are in ireland alone. 25% tariff on Intel, google, meta etc .. or maybe we hit it were it hurts him most, his precious golf course. ???

Maybe this is Putin trying to separate us from our allies for nefarious reasons, so if there is an attack on us, we won’t have our allies beside us.

Honestly at this point I hope he crashes the economy. That is maybe the only last resort the Americans will see common sense and turn against their wannabe dictator and his crown prince before it is too late. You guys voted a dictator in because you thought Biden somehow caused the world wide inflation. Well what do you think 25% of import tariffs are going to do.

People need to understand that the damage and fallout that will certainly come from all of the things that Donald Trump is doing is intentional. \nTrump's efforts to weaken NATO, destroying our relationships with our long-standing Western European allies, creating friction and distrust with our border countries of Canada and Mexico, taking a wrecking ball to all of our governmental institutions that hold this country together, sowing a lot of hatred and distrust among American citizens along racial and ethnic lines, using tariffs to destroy the American economy, efforts to cause Americans to lose trust in our courts, justice and Healthcare systems, trying to Villianize Zelensky of Ukraine while praising the dictator from Russia, is all part of a plan to weaken or maybe even destroy our country and to allow Russia to rise.\nIt is painfully obvious that Donald Trump is an agent for Vladimir Putin and Russia against the United States, Ukraine and the democracies of Europe. \nDonald Trump is a traitor! The Republicans in Congress need to do their jobs and remove him from office ASAP!

Maybe if your country would stop letting drugs come threw your boarders into the US we wouldn’t have to do this, Justin talks all this game about being nice and wanting to work together, get he lets the cartels bring drugs threw there county. We making deals else where because Justin refuses to actually work together. He can say whatever he wants but it doesn’t change the facts.

America is going to feel real soon, that they needed their allies maybe even more then their allies needed them. Because strength doesn't come from one nation, it comes from unity.

Maybe people in the United States should educate themselves on basic economics before they cast a vote. Better yet, increase your vocabulary so you know definitions of buzzwords like “tariff”.

Maybe he can continue his job as PM. Thanks to Trump

I am not Canadian,nor US.Justin seems to be more coherent and composed as opposed to Trump.I know one resigned while the other got relected.I am putting this purely in terms of speech delivery.\nMy own country's leader's oration skills are crap,maybe that's why I feel the difference.For a change my ears aren't bleeding

Maybe just maybe the mad ???er is a blessing in disguise ? by shaking up some common sense in this slightly mad world ??...

Maybe nobody told that commie fluff ball that he exports 77% of his measly 2.7 trillion GDP to the U.S. Go ahead and put that all on boats to the EU. Let’s see how that works out for you!

?? elbows up ????. Their maybe slot of tit for tat going on!

Trump turning to Russia maybe even China given up on American friends
