This Vermonter is descended from the first 14 European Canadian women settlers and I stand with you my neighbors and family. I'm so ashamed of what my country has done. We are sorry.

These comments are disappointing. All these Americans standing with other countries smh. Go live there! Nobody is forcing you to stay in America. Why don’t you actually start trying to help OUR country be better INSTEAD OF COUNTRIES!!! How can so many people LOVE that OUR taxes go to non Americans?. Or lining the pockets of the very politicians you all are listening to? Make it make sense. Oh wait, it all makes sense when you all have TDS. The elections are OVERRRRR, how are democrats going to survive the next 4 years? This is just getting started & as you can see, Trump always gets what he wants. No more sleepy joe & kackling kamala. Soon enough NO MO Trudeau!

WE SALUTE U TRUDEAU!!!!! STAND UP FOR TRUTH AND UR COUNTRY....DON'T LET AMERICA BULLY U BECAUSE HER COUNTRY FALLING IN THA DUST BECAUSE THEIR CORRUPT.....?

No one believes the fentanyl lies the American Nazis in the Whitehouse tell NO ONE!!! they should have already been dragged out and took to the gilotin CANADA is our loyal family and we have attacked our own familyand the tariffs are on US!! he has lied on Canada to steal from all of us to give more and more to the billionaires THE OLIGARDS OF AMERICA!!! the elderly of America will starve the children of America will starve and our children of America will be working the jobs the immigrants work to support their families and that is the plan it's in their 2025 plan and everyone who voted for it knew it !!! NOW only knowing they are doing everything in their power to fight this is the only way they will be shown any sympathy!!! everyone who supports these Nazis should be exposed every business from the billionaires to the hotdog stand should be boycotted the real Americans need to support each other now ! what people need now is constant information on who is helping and who is not!! and if the media is going to support the people then we must not support them !! and the commercials on media that show any support to these aggressors or works to suppresses the truth should noted and boycotted .we must boycott them all we cannot give them a penny and take any penny we can we must get our country back let's all go AMERICA NOW!!! we must save america

Man this is so wrong. I'm an American citizen and I'm standing with other countries against my own. There is something very wrong here

I am from Alberta, Canada and would like to thank all the American people that have said that they stand with Canada. YOU CAN HELP. Call or write to your various levels of government and let them know that this is wrong and will hurt everyone in the US and Canada. The sooner that the US government realizes this is a no win situation, the better for all of us. Also, thank you to everyone around the world for your support. I am Canadian, I am strong and free and I will fight for my country and for my family.

All the Americans that fell for this and “Stand with Canada “ should pack your bags and move to that Liberal Country! Don’t forget to leave your firearms here in the United States ??!!

I am from Austria and I think that all democratic countries on this planet should stand together and support each other ❤

My heart breaks as an American who loves her country. I can't stand Trump or President Musk ?\nDo what you have to is how I feel. I stand with Canada ?? & Ukraine ??

I stand with Canada ??. I’m ashamed of my country

PM Trudeau you are a leader, Canadian's please stand strong with your PM and don't let Putin/Trump tear your country apart. Our president is compromised, in any other time a president would have been brought up on treason/ traitor. It is beyond me why the Republicans are not standing up to him. My grandfather fought in WWll against Hilter in Africa, where are our heros now?

Thank you Trudeau. As an American, thank you for standing up for your country’s citizens and speaking directly to American citizens. Your efforts are courageous and honorable.

wow. A country looking after its citizens?! Doing what’s right?! It’s starting to feel sort of alien here in the states. As an American, I stand with Canada.

As an American citizen I’m saddened by Trumps B ignorance and diatribes I stand with Canada and the EU and any other countries who respond in kind. Trumps the Destroyer in Chief turning his back on Ukraine embracing Outin his hero, It disgusts me and makes me sick, Trump should be in jail and the Supreme Court empowers his injustices and is complicit, prices go higher Everything is Higher Day One has come and Gone.

100% support to Canada, from France.\nThis is a great speech.\nIt gives me hope when I see leaders of any countries stand up like that. Trump is one of the cancers we all have to fight right now.

good job Justin thank you for showing the fools across the border how government should work, the orange man just likes to blame others for his mistakes he should look in his backyard cleaning up his problems but instead he has to make everything he is doing seem good its ALL about him they should have a kindergarten kid stand in for him they would do a better job of running their country

Dude Its a shame you stepped down. Because you are one Awesome leader. I would rather be #Canadian Right now Than an American. I have found that being an American is not what I hoped it might be. I have been to Canada. Its a wonderful Beautiful nation and its people are some of the coolest in the world. I live so Close to Canada I am sorry We are doing this to you. and the Great Canadian's. I am incensed and angry right now. I want to just leave and defect to another country. I can not Stand the Hideous evil Man Trump And his lackey sidekicks Musk and VD Vance. They are destroying this great nation. Why the military has not stepped in here. Only shows its Cowardice and weakness to follow its own oaths to the nation and its people. Trumps first term was a nightmare. This Term is horrifying. And its killing people. Soon there will be Farms/Camps. Then worse things will come. In Advance There are those of us who are sorry now. Many of us do not have the ability to stop this. and we really really want too.

I know I will get attacked in the comments for this, but I grew up in the US watched many presidents come and go, and I have never seen the country that I live in turn so corrupt and evil in my life we have been lied to by our president. A man I did not vote for and it almost feels like it is turning into a fascist regime. I think it is time for me to leave and move to Canada because at least they know the difference between right and wrong. my family, a long time ago fled from fascist Germany and came to America because back then it was the land of the free it terrifies me to know that my family ran from that only to end up right back where it was before in the future my prayers go out to every American citizen and hope that you all rise up, right and left and independent and do what you can to get this dictator out of office. He’s only been in there not even two months and look how bad everything is already. United we stand divided, we fall.

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

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!

Mr, Trudeau prime minister, I am glad that you are standing up to trump do what is right for your country do not allow this, man child trump push you around, stand up take a stand do what is right what is just, your people who voted for you deserve it, show the world ?? that integrity, honestly and the rule of law still matters, let the world see trump for what he is, and I say to the other leaders do not be afraid to do the right thing, a good leader loves his people a good leader protects it's people , silence ? at this point in time is not acceptable, when you see tyranny speak up i asked my father ounce what makes a man, i could see in his face that he was thinking about this question very hard and he turned and looked at me and said, a man will stand up for what he believes in,no matter the price, and a real man will always protect those that can't protect themselves, for this is the mark of a real man and gentleman, i have never forgotten those words that he spoke to me, and I believe that this saying also has religious implication as well, after everything is said and done it's not the voters that are going to judge you in the end it's god and he is going to judge you on his standards not MAGA

God help the Americans. You all will NEED it. Trump trying to play a country like a company is shameful. Countries are countries. Not this bullshit. Canada will stand hell or high water.

I am from Europe. Lithuania. I will say the opinion that is dominant in my country: Ex President Joe Biden was not the sharpest knife in the drawer because he is of a respectable age, but he was a smart politician, he respected his neighbors and the all of Europe respected him. Trump destroyed everything in one month, he acts like Putin by attacking his neighbors. We are stand with Ukraine and Canada. I hope one day to visit Canada for incredible natural beauty. ( if we Lithuanians don't have to go to war with Ruzzia )

From UK and am so impressed by the conviction of your government standing up for your country and against this abismal behaviour. Sympathy to the Americans who could see Trump for the villain that he is and are having to endure this. You deserve better. We all do. Standing with you, Canada, Ukraine, Europe and UK.

All those secret phone calls Trump has had with Putin. What the heck have they been talking about? I think they’ve come up with a plan to divide the world between three empires - an American empire, a Russian empire, and a Chinese empire. Trump gave it away when he accused Zelenskyy of potentially starting WW3 if he doesn’t give Russia what it wants. \n\nWe’ve already had several threats from Putin that he’d use nuclear weapons to protect Russia if other countries ally with Ukraine and send their own military to assist Ukrainians. Trump once again proves he’s a Russian asset as he parrots Putin’s threats. \n\nAlso, prepare yourself for the China-Taiwan war. Putin and Trump will stand down their navies.

I'm from the UK and I stand with Canada. America should be absolutely ashamed of their president. Trump treats friendly countries like this, then rolls over and becomes nothing but Putin's little bitch. Trump is pathetic and Americans are disgraced by him and his lies.

This American stands with Canada ?? Best neighbor any country could hope to have. God bless Canada and may God help us all…

Well done to Prime Minister Trudeau and the Canadian people for standing up to donOLD. Find other markets for your goods. There are other countries who would love to replace the American products on your shelves

BLA BLA BLA CNN.....stop the treason....It is a death neatly offense. stand up for your country CNN. VIVA Canada...ViVA Ukraine !!!! CNN is worthless.

Everyone I speak to in the UK stands with Canada. We must do what’s right and stand up to the bully boy tactics from USA and Russia. Sad for Americans who didn’t vote for this seeing their country go this way.

Thank you to everyone from all over the world in support of Canada standing up to Trump. As a Canadian born in N. Ireland who loves the US, and have many friends there, i am emotional reading all these comments especially the us folks, it gives me hope. Im to old and broke down to be in on the front lines, but i will limp my way to fight for this country. We are not for sale.\nELBOWS UP\nPeace from Toronto

america won't hold these tariffs for long, remember Canada is a commonwealth country under the protection of his majesty the king of uk, a trade war with Canada is effectively a trade war with the uk and its commonwealth, the uk and the commonwealth will not stand by and watch putin being mommy cuddled by trump, let that sink in the british commonwealth is the largest fighting force in the world, the king has invited trump to the uk am pretty sure the king will let him know, Canada and the uk is the special relationship not the u.s fact, god bless Canada and the United Kingdom

I am a US citizen and I am terrified about everything that is happening in this country. I am horrified that there are so many hateful and greedy people in this country that allowed this orange moron to hold office not once, but twice. I will never understand how he is being allowed to get away with the things he is doing, so many of which are illegal. Where are the US leaders who will stand up to him? He is nothing but a bratty toddler having a tantrum, determined to destroy as much as he can, as fast as he can.. How do so many people not see this?!!!

I do not blame Canada for standing up for their country and to trump and putin god bless us people in the USA they have never drank the koolaid and despise trump and his dictatorship and his worshippers

Wow, some do t like Trudeau but that’s a leader. Has 100% the back of canada. It’s about canada not anything else. Trump worries about nothing but trump. That’s the difference between us and the greedy USA. Oh, you have picked a fight with the wrong people……trust me on that. We are a country that stands together. We haven’t divided our country like trump has, we stand together.

American here and I stand with Canada ?The world is going to hit back hard against our country because Trump arrogance

American are not friends anymore.... people in all around the world trump is going war so stand up for your country

TRUMP WANTS AMERICANS BEGGING IN THE STREETS. ANYONE WITH HALF A BRAIN KNOWS THAT TRUMP DOESN'T CARE ABOUT ANYONE EXCEPT HIMSELF PERIOD!\nHE IS AFTER ALL A LIAR, A CROOK, A CON ARTIST, BUT MOST OF ALL AN AMERICAN KILLER!!\nWE MUST ALL STAND FOR DEMOCRACY!!\nTRUMP DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT TRUE HARDWORKING TAX PAYING AMERICANS DON'T KILL OR WANT TO KILL OTHER AMERICANS PERIOD!! HE'S NEVER PAID TAXES!! \nI WANT TO MOVE TO CANADA WHERE THEIR PRESIDENT REALLY DOES CARE ABOUT HIS COUNTRY AND CANADIANS.

Trump picking a fight with both his neighbors while his own house is burning down. No matter what Trump does Canada will stand strong and we will fight for our country. ?????????

As an American…I urge Canada to continue standing tall..you should be proud of your Prime Minister and your country

As an American I speak for many that we did not want this for our countries and I condemn our President for being just a bully and a fool. Its so nice hear a leader speak with intelligence and compassion. Mr. Trudeau and the people of Canada I stand with you

Trudeau is as corrupt as they come. He pretends to stand up for Canada, but as soon as the fight starts he will run and hide just like the coward he is. He isn't doing anything to make this country better. He knows his days are limited. It's all fake, he is fake.

We voted for Trump for a reason. That it which we as a Country need to stand up and be Great Again. Other countries have been getting away with allot of things, now it’s time for it to end. Thankyou Mr Trump for making America Great Again!

As an American, it was so refreshing to hear an intelligent, articulate, real leader speak. I’m so embarrassed at the state of our country. Truly can’t believe this is happening right now. I stand with Canada ??

Such an elegant speaker. So Adult!! Not like the “old infant” we have here in the states “acting out.” And ruining our country. We have a child in the oval office, throwing tantrums. We are doomed as long as he’s there. We stand with you, Canada!

Walk out during his address. Make a statement. Walk out for her, me and country. Do not fail. Stand up for USA and walk out. just do it. Walk out. Listen to us. Walk out. Walk out. Do it. Walk out. Stop talking. Walk out.

I want to apologize to our friends to the north. Most of us don't approve of trump's actions.\nI for one, stand with you. \ntrump is wrong and he's going to destroy our country.

Good for Canada to stand up to the bully\nMore countries should speak up

These other countries need us way more than we need them. It's time we put ourselves first. I'm tired of saving the rest of the world. Canada will get over it and be stronger if they do.\nIf they can't stand on their own 2 feet why is that our fault?

Wow!! American here. Refreshing to see real leadership. Absolutely disgusted with my piece of crap president and his little pet JD Vance. Never in my 48 years did I think I would see the day our president craps all over our allies. Worse yet, never thought I would have a president that is selling our country and our allies out to Russia. Pray in the American people stand up and say enough is enough
