Why is anyone surprised. It was made clear during the campaigning this was what he would do and YOU the legacy press decided to either ignore or normalise his behaviour. So don’t be surprised or feign shock you in part have created this!

I can’t understand why so many Canadians actually hate this guy!! Are there ignorant MAGA’s in Canada?

PLEASE KNOW THAT MOST AMERICANS LOVE AND SUPPORT CANADA, BUT WE ARE CURRENTLY PRISONERS OF A FASCIST REGIME THAT WAS 'ELECTED' BY AN IGNORANT POPULACE. GOD BLESS AND GOD HELP AMERICA!

American, that absolutely supports Canada…. Granted Im a black American, so let that sit in…. I’m sorry we had ignorant people who put racism and bigotry of valuing our democracy. Pray for all of us…

I'm from the USA, and I stand with Canada. There are far too many ignorant Americans who have taken everything for granted. They have no idea how much we depend on our allies and partners across the globe. It's time for America to learn that we are not the mightiest, or the greatest if we stand alone.

Trudeau's a ignorant bum. Get that bum outta my country!

The ignorance of some narrow-minded pro-Trump individuals commenting here prevents them from seeing the economic tragedy that the people of the United States are about to suffer. This has nothing to do with popularity approval but rather with the devastating financial consequences that these tariffs will bring to American families who do not belong to the oligarchy.

This is what IDIOCRACY does. Returning to XIX century, ignoring the lessons from history, only learning in the worst way: from the errors. That shouldn' t happen in the XXI century. The Brexit is full of regretful people, maga goes the same way.

America is now hated - by our allies! We have become the bad guys of history. Nobody can trust us anymore. It's shameful. No matter what one thinks of Trudeau, he speaks well here, and he speaks the truth. Ignore the MAGA Americans and Russian trolls who will belittle him. He's right here, there's no escaping this. Every decent US citizen should be ashamed.

we Canadians despise this blackface Trudeau \na little info on this socialist mascot \nJustin Trudeau's corrupt and unqualified government has increased the Canadian federal debt by more than all previous Canadian governments in history combined.\nHis track record displays complete incompetence, with literally no substantial accomplishments in eight years. He is morally empty, completely corrupt, and ignorant. His arrogance is disgraceful, but it's typical behaviour for narcissists.\nHe has legalized hard drugs and issues them out for free. He encourages citizens to end their lives if they feel depressed, by promoting his assisted dying program. He has also increased the catch and release of repeat violent offenders.\nHe Used the Emergencies Act to Lock Up Protesters and Freeze Bank Accounts\nHe Has Multiple Cases of Direct Illegal Interference with the Justice System\nJustin Trudeau is a master of failure. Turn the page, shut down the committee, fire the Attorney General, throw fellow cabinet ministers under the bus, lie, shift the blame, and accuse your opposition of the very crime you're committing.\ni can keep going

As a Canadian i prefer to join USA as Trudeau made our Canada a third world country, our politicians are so stupid and ignorant that they invite SS Nazi veterans in our parliament as heroes spitting on the memory of thousands of Canadians who died to free Europe . Ontario has 4 cities now who declared a hunger emergency, people is so poor they have no food to feed their families

Yet his supports see this and still have some ignorant thing to say

Trump was never going to play along because his bestie over in Russia has already persuaded him to stay sweet and ignore everyone else.. Trump is also mad that everyone else gathered to support Zelenskyy and he hates that comradery because it hurt his ego.. DT will probably pull away from England, France and others that were at the Summit meeting because he's a man child that has a fragile ego. I am pleased to say however that at least everyone is seeing the so called christian man's true colours.. he's a modern day Hananiah of the bible.. a modern day Nebuchadnezzar.. who is ruled by the love of money, nothing else!

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

I wonder if trump listen to this speech ? ignorance is bliss

I am one of the millions of Americans who despise Donald Trump. He and his MAGAts are ignorant fools. Keep up the good work, Canada!\n\nI would be thrilled to migrate north to you, although you are probably being overwhelmed by inquiries from other Americans eager to do the same.

Trump is nuts and Republican politicians are cowards and ignoring their responsibilities to rein this nutcase in. My deepest apologies to Canada and the rest of the world. Except to Putin - he can suck it.

Trump is an ignorant puppet of putin

Trump is an obvious symptom representing an abundance of ignorance within the society, so blame not one but all responsible for a deeply ingrained interpretation of reality!

Potus is dragging this country down…. all he cares about is what he can do for himself and his billionaire friends. He is ignorant of the fact that Tariffs will affect the tax payers and he doesn’t care. He’s deceptive and consistently lies about everything.

America with Tramp is over, America is full of stupid and ignorant people, America's name as the hope of the world was destroyed once and for all, now it's a shame to say you're an American because the whole world hates America, shame on America

Attention Americans: Let's boycott Trump's speech (LIES) tonight! Turn off your TVs; don't listen! The evil tyrant lives for high ratings (such a leader)! Let's IGNORE him! Thank you (& TY P.M Trudeau for speaking w/candor & eloquence.)

The US was partly responsible for the collapse of the Soviet Union. Mr. Putin was a KGB officer during that era. Mr. Putin realizes the depth of Trump's ignorance and intends to take advantage of their relationship in order to bring the US further along the path to economic collapse. Payback for its role in the collapse of the Soviet Union as well as an opportunity to rid the world of a dimming superpower.

What Putin has asked Donald Trump to do is to break away from my allies so he can become a dictator! If the people of the United States do not stand up, we are going to end up in World War iii, we are going to end up poor, hungry, and barely hanging on for our lives because Donald Trump is selling us out 2 our enemy is there any ignorant ass person that still standing behind Donald Trump and think he's a great guy, you need to go and fuc yourself! I am pissed off and frightened at the same time one a little bit more than others at time because the United States has been taken over by a Madman that is so hungry to be a dictator like Putin and he actually think is going to happen and he would do everything to make it happen! Donald Trump has been tested in the waters to become a dictator!

European here. Nice to see that Canada is still a great smart country we are all happy to be friends with; what really worries us is the country below Canada, since it is run by a crazy old man and his cult of bigotry, ignorance, lies, autocracy and pseudoscience. What have you done? You liberated us from the Nazis in WWII just to vote for their American counterpart less than one century later. I am very sorry for all the good guys who lost their lives only to bring Mr Trump to the White House.

As an American, from Chile ?? because it is a continent and not a country ( the arrogance and ignorance is tiring) I hope they leave USA and buy stuff over here ?❤ Abrazos a nuestros hermanos Mexicanos

Given how tariffs work, surely the response should have been not to retaliate?  \nRetaliations will increase costs for Canadians!? Trump's administration want a trade war. There has to be some covert devious evil plan. Ignore the fools. Don't play into their hands.

This is what happens when the most educated country selects the most ignorant and dangerous person to be their president.

Yawn....Ignore!

The GOP wants to defund education because it keeps people ignorant enough to create a massive slave class too stupid to know that Trump and his kind have nothing for them—now or ever.

Noob Trump (who finds the word Tariff to be the most beautiful word) does not comprehend economics. He is a tax fraud, which is how he got rich, and thinks that's the only way to get rich or get money illegally from his followers via crypto scams and then ignoring it when asked about it by a reporter. Trump and Elon Musk are just a bunch of money hungry fascists. And both of them should be jailed. Elon Musk should be charged with conflict of interest now that his company has received another multi-billion dollar contract from FAA while working with the government.

Spoken with professionalism as a leader without getting ignorant, bullishness and disrespect. Thank you sir! Shame on our Oval Office here in USA.?

You know why there are no trump supporters (yet) in the comments here telling you why trump is right and Trudeau is wrong? Because right-wing propagandists haven't had time yet to tell trump supporters what to think of this speech. Give it a few days, and then expect a bunch of ignorant, foolish MAGA clowns who can't think for themselves to be here regurgitating what they were spoon fed.

I’m American and embarrassed by the current US government ignorance. Love for Canada

Sadly there are millions of Americans here who are fucking furious and disagree 1000% percent with this ignorant Poseur shit thrower in our white house.... \n\nWe DON'T blame Canada.\n\n#trumpisalyingIdiot

The truth of American arrogance and ignorance was on full display when it decided that a proven liar and convicted felon was the best person to lead America and represent the values it stands for. Trump voters were quite happy with the prospect of other people and countries suffering, but let's see how they handle their own suffering. It must be very confusing for most Americans to hear a politician speak logically and rationally like this.

All assumptions been made by Trudeau, who is actually being ignorant.. best of luck to him

Unfortunately, Americans voted for an ignorant, stupid, Putin loving idiot who may put us all in harms way. Thanks

Like I've said before or two other blogs, this man should not be up there addressing CNN or any other network or any population. Whether it be Canadian or American. He has no right to be there. He is not the prime minister of this country anymore. He has no right to be making policies or to be imposing tariffs or doing anything else of the sort. Furthermore, he is also politically, unsavvy and ignorant. He in his running the mouth speech this afternoon. Insulted Donald Trump again by calling him dumb. I'm telling you that will not go very well with Mr. Trump and I wouldn't be surprised to see additional tariff percentage increased on the 25% already in place. Justin Trudeau is not a prime minister. He is a thug, an absolute idiot, a moron and any other adjective that you can find to describe someone who is totally and completely incompetent and incapable of implementing policy or running a country.

At this juncture the whole world have seen how ignorant American voters are by allowing this low profile exconvict and a draft dodger to dictate for a country like America , TRUMP himself is illitrate forget about the English language the man knows nothing when it comes to international politics and how American foreign policies work , a man with zero experience public office how can he rule but guess what American people deserve everything thats been happening to them , they better stfu and deal with it

This is how a president should address the world. Trump is an ignorant puppet ot the Kremlin. The U.S. Is no longer the leader of the world and it is isolating itself and sleeping with tyrants and terrorist.

It’s on a popping now !!! Ignorant people in the WH !!! Pennsylvania Ave z!! You proud of yourself orange man.

W don’t want this either Mr. Trudeau. I can’t thank you enough for carrying about the people, the ones that saw this coming and the ones who chose to ignore the facts. Thank you Canada and the other people of the world that are supporting and praying for us. ?

Ignorant Americans (which seems to be a majority of us now days) only know what a “Tariff” is based on what Trump says it is, and Trump doesn’t know ? about what they are and how they function (even if it is his favorite word in the dictionary). And the leadership of our government are chicken-? when they won’t stand-up and correct him when he makes stupid remarks about stuff like having an “External Revenue Service”. What a f*ucking joke!\n\nAmerica first is America alone… We deserve all the ? that you’re dishing-out to us! Give us hell!!!

To all Americans, this is not personal but we are going to fight Trump's Tariffs with everything we can muster! We will take financial pain and deprive ourselves of AMERICAN products we love! Look at WW2 and you will see Canadians never give up! We almost never pick a fight but if forced, we will fight till the end! We stopped Fentanyl cold and your President ignored it because his agenda is to drive Canada to financial ruin, so we ask to be a state! Mark these words well Canada will never ever become the 51st state of the USA! This is not our of anger or distain! No, it is the quiet patriotism and love of country that Canadians have that we choose to remain Canada ,and always will! I ask facetiously; would you Americans like to become a Province of Canada? I didn't think so!

What more can we say about the stupidity of the puppet occupying the White House. His ignorance has been described in so many different (yet accurate) ways. In my eyes there is but one answer and that is that he is working with Russia and China to destabilize the world economy. Our DOJ dropped the ball. They should have slapped handcuffs on him on January 6, 2024 when we witnessed him breaking the law.

All the blame without exception was caused by MORENA AND SO MUCH NACO HELPED, starting with the alliance with the drug trafficker Andres Lopez Obrador, to obtain money from the DRUG TRAFFICKING TO BUY VOTES IN EXCHANGE FOR protection of the armed forces TO THE DRUG TRAFFICKING, using cynical manipulations of hugs and not bullets second speaking badly of the United States in the morning, manipulating the ignorant people letting millions of MIGRANTS pass AND ON THE OTHER HAND COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SELF-DETERMINATION OF THE PEOPLE, letting millions enter Mexico without moving a single finger, but letting the armed forces collect incredible quotas of money to keep the soldiers happy, they have bankrupted PEMEX, direct robberies to SEGALMEX, the refinery and the Mayan train, unprecedented million-dollar robberies, and now stealing the workers' savings funds in Infonavit, insecurity at its peak in the country and especially states where the fourth misfortune of this country directs, that allied itself with countries that are Communist, Cuba, Venezuela, Russia and China, are bringing us misfortune, urgent help is requested from President Trump

That is way that a true leader speaks, not like the stupid , ignorant, and Putin Ass Kisser that we have now for president!
