Please remember this Canada. It’s our politicians who have mismanaged our country for decades and brought us to the state we are in now. Ignoring climate change and creating National Debt that can never be paid. Most of us here in the USA love our friends to the north of us.

Respect and love Canada ?? ? ? ? ? ?. Trump CAN NOT bullying any country in the world.

We are Americans. We love Canada ?? and Justin Trudeau. We are sorry this ?maniac is ruining our country. We do NOT want him!!! We are very sorry he is doing this to both our countries. Please don’t hate those of us who did NOT vote for this felon.

.... 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 ??

If only our country had a leader, not a lying, miserable, grifter! Love my Canadian friends. You better build a wall, because I will get into Canada. It’s the best place to live on the planet!

Australian here, I honestly have no words, but that speech is amazing well done prime minister Trudeau. What a man and what a country ? ? love to all Canadians ❤

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

We love Canada! We know that trump the traitor to Americans and Democracy started this horrible tariffs along with Americans losing jobs, Food is off the charts and the lies that trump tells has harmed our relations with European countries. All by him, the man who has been indicted in both criminal and civil law cases. We know that Canada shows honor in fighting back. If our spineless, cowardly republicans party would work for their constituents rather than for a criminal we would not be in This situation.

Thank you Canada ?? \nSorry for the inconvenience but we have a Dictator and he is not playing fair to you and to other countries. Blessings to your country and the people that live there. ???☮️❤️✨✝️????????????\nI LOVE MY COUNTRY BUT I FEAR MY GOVERNMENT.

Donald is not a smart guy, (you’re being diplomatic, )he’s dumb and dumber for doing this and it will show very soon the consequences of his actions. Trouble is, he doesn’t do anything if he’s wrong he just doubles down, he doesn’t take any responsibility even if he’s the one that causes it. Good on you, Mr. Trudeau, Americans, love Canada and Canadians, but Donald is not who the United States is about. He’s a traitor and of course a felon, Conman, hrapist. He is the one that we shouldn’t let in our country, especially to the presidency of the United States.

World only recognizes the power of money and economy , America is the largest economy in the history . America is not Charity to help other over its people interests . Thank you Mr. president Trump . I wish my country leaders love their country as you do to your country . Salute Mr. President Donald Trump

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

I’m Canadian and loved PM Trudeau’s response to the tariffs. Thank you to all the countries throughout the world who have expressed their support for Canada. Vive le Canada ???

I am with America; I don't believe anything this foolish PM says. This guy loves to destroy his own country's economy.

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

Let’s go canada cause soon I’ll be living in canada and Mexico and help them with the economy if I’m going to work I’m going to work for my land and for a country who loves people ❤

As a Washington State resident, I have always and continue to love and respect our Canadian neighbors. This US fake president is a liar and shameful embarrassment to Americans. Mr. Trudeau is pulling his country together as trump is tearing our country apart.

Trump is starting a new world order, read the bible! Trump says he is a Christian wrong he is not he is the devil that walks among us! I love my country. And the USA was always our neighbor! This is sad ???

As a American I find the actions of Vladimir Trump absolutely disgusting! I didn't vote for that scumbag! I live right across the st Lawrence river from Canada and I love that country as well!!!

This is how Honorable PMs defend their countries. Big W to Justin. Love from Pakistan ??

Even with every ridiculous thing Trump has claimed or done and despite his love for Pukin and Russia, there are relatively 'normal' people in the u.s. who think he's sane and doing great, one reason I've heard being 'There's less Mexicans around'. I ask again, can anyone in the u.s. aim straight? If so, your failing country needs you.

This guy. Canada, I wish this was not happening. I love your people and country.

Boy, Canadian PM is totally out from dumb trump’s league. Canadians, you’re in good hands there ? Poor Americans, please, do something before the USA will not be anymore the country you love.

I don't know much about this guy. But why is he unpopular in Canada to the point that he resigned from office ? He looks and sounds so smart and he is working damn well for his country. I love him !

I truly love how GOD has made it so each country needs each other. It is sad how Trump cannot understand that.

PLEASE dont let what trump does dictate how most americans feel this is all trump most of us love canada and its people you are our kin our faamily most of us in america do not like what trump is doing trump is a cancer to the united states hes dividing our country trump is a multi time felon trump is a wsomanizing racist with ties to a pedophile that invited him on his jet with undedrage girls that took hium to an island known as pedophile island trump spent time there the biggest majority of the usa wants him out of office

I am an American and love my country and its people. But TRUMP and Musk and Vance are villains ?! They must be defeated. And they will be stopped. We need to stick close to our neighbors and our friends in the world. Putin is not a friend. I hope our Canadian brothers know we real Americans want cooperation and friendship, not a trade war.

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.

THANK YOU!!! Thank You for doing what few have done. What few countries, what few leaders, especially our own leaders have had the BACK BONE to do. The world respects you. AMERICANS respect you!! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. I pray that you won't back down like other weak men and countries have. Thank You Canada, Americans love you. ?

I love Canada. Canada will always be our ally, but there appears to be some “one sided-ness”. I believe the biggest issue being drugs coming across our border. \nAs someone who lives on the border, we see many Canadian cars coming to the US to shop. They even wear clothes that they throw away in dumpsters so they can wear their new clothes back to Canada without having to pay tax. \nI wish they wld accommodate to our requests.\n\nP.S. I love the idea of becoming one nation. I wld love to join as one nation. Nothing forced, I just love the idea. God bless both our countries.\nWe’ll get through this.

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am sorry President Trump's irresponsible ideas and choices affect so many negatively which includes you and your Canadians, and me and my Americans, as well as so many other. He should be ashamed of himself, but we all know that a narcissist feels only joy in hurting others. I worry every day, not just for the people of the United States of America, but also for all people around the world affected by this horrible man. I stand up and speak up with the hope that it makes a difference. Those I know are doing the same. I have heard so many republicans that voted for Trump, so very sorry now that they did. His irrational behavior is worthy of impeachment. Your speech, Prime Minister Trudeau, was honest and sincere and I appreciate your being so candid. I wish President Trump and Vice President Vance had the character you have. Best Wishes to you and the People of Canada, we have been friends for a long time and I would love to continue this friendship. Remember there are Americans here that appreciate you and your country.

......he is someone I would Love Leading my Country, especially right now. Then to further make Trump look like a dumbass, he did his speech in a different language...fluidly. Trump can barely speak English.

Americans are on you side. DEMOCRACY LOVING AMERICANS. YOU. do what you need to do to keep your country safe from TRUMP

I love this.\nThis is how you talk to the country and everyone else with respect and honesty

You love your country. We can see.

Everyone in the comments loves this man - yet his country don't like him... just saying

What an idiot. Your going to collapse your country. We dont need anything from Canada. Start making cars in usa again. Create a landbridge from alaska to Washington at least 1000 miles wide. Canada lost thier freedom of speech and thier freedom to protect themselves. Americans love Canadians so wee need to end the tyrannical globalist agenda and remove that regime from the face of the earth. Lets give canadians thier freedom.

This American family loves Canada and am so sorry this is happening to your country

Pop off, king. Hell yeah. Love my country and proud of this response.

Unlike Trump and his project 2025 cronies, The president of Canada is a real and respectable man who loves his country and thinks about the less fortunate, only the wealthy and the countries that is not in alliance with the USA trump cares about. May God help us

We love Canada please do not forget over half of the US DID NOT vote for that traitor. WE agree with your decision to protect your country, BRAVO! So sorry for you all! And us?

As an American... I have not spoken to a SINGLE person from my country who wants ANY part of this trade war... Or any other type of animosity with Canada. We love Canada.\n\nTrump is just trying to cause chaos and nonsense headlines on an hourly basis in order to distract from the fact that they are looting the treasury. His administration is literally set on siphoning every dollar of taxpayer money they can het their hands on. Nothing could be more obvious...\n\nJust yesterday they announced their plan to buy 5% of all crypto with our tax dollars. Because apparently rugpulling his own voters twice was not enough. He wants to rugpull the entire nation. Just like the Clinton's did to Detroit. But for the entire country. Because we have become asleep at the wheel. And will do nothing besides complain about it on Twitter. Ironic coincidence, no?

You’re doing the right thing, Mr. Prime Minister. As an American Veteran, it breaks my heart that we are treating our closest friends and allies with such contempt. The current U.S. administration is a shameful embarrassment to Americans. I love Canada almost as much as I love my own country. Stay strong and keep standing up to the senile bully in the White House - for ALL of us. ??❤️??

A great speech from a great leader of a great country - Love from Germany - I stand with Canada and Ukraine

Mon cœur est plein d’espoir pour la Paix…\nI love Canada. So courageous and talent those people are, they havé a very good gvt.\nSoon I Will be there to discover this country.\nThe futur freedom with a powerfull economy, I Hope to finish my profesional Life there.

Dear Canada with love from your other neighbor Greenland/Denmark,\n\nWe stand shoulder to shoulder with you, and from my Danish perspective you are a more European country than a country in North America and I hope to see the Canadian flag, together with our Danish. in Brussels at the EU headquarters where you mediate into our common European family EU ...\n\nDear Canada you are just as naturally an EU country as Germany and France and my Denmark is,

Boo boo, don’t care. It’s time that the countries we support show some love back. In our time of need we are getting ghosted but everyone expects America to just to attention when there is a conflict or someone needs money. No one cares about our financial needs or our battle with the cartels and illegal immigration. Then screw them. If they want to leave us high and dry because they like the old way of doing things, aka syphoning off Americas wealth, then they can get ghosted right back. I know this will get hate because the people who support CNN are mostly trump haters, but oh well. There’s gonna be a lot of pain before the soothing comes because of all the damage that’s been done. My heart goes out to those suffering, you’re not alone, we’re all in this hoping for a better America.

I back and support you my fav flavored country. ❤️ ? Love from one fed up us citizen.

Mexican american here. I stand with u, canada and mexico. I will still buy Canada made and mexico made. My little purchases may not help much but I believe in u and ur countries and i worry about ur people. I apologize for the idiocy and hate here in America. Love from texas.

Trudeau you are a wise reasonable person who loves his country and care of others. Trump is a horrible president, and a very stupid person on many levels. Thank you Trudeau to speak the truth and stand up for your honesty …Thank you..
