Canada's $63 billion trade imbalance is a bigger issue. your telling trump the last time he was in the white house you would be spending 2% of your GDP on the military by 2024. Now you say you will get to 1.8% by 2027. Open your trade. Like JD Vance said we can keep going up on Tariffs until you balance trade.

We don’t want this either, America is scary and crazy right now. Thanks for telling the truth !

What an effaminate Marxist punk. Calling President Trump “Donald”. Then telling how much this will hurt America. The population of Canada equals the state of California. Who feels the pinch first?

Oh my God, my heart is absolutely broken in half. I am an American citizen (I am ashamed to even tell anybody that) my brother is a Canadian citizen, and I feel like Trump has put up a wall that will now make it impossible for me to ever see my brother again.\n\n* I believe that Trump is somehow spawn of Satan. He and all his henchmen!

Donald,\n\nNo nicknames, no wrong address, no title, just : Donald.\n\nYet, I feel the disrespect is greater that way. I saw the Fox news host act all uppity that a Canadian was not being polite. \n\n‘Bout time you guys figure out that a Québécois can be very much impolite and tell it like it is.

By the way Canada, kick musks Tesla corporation out of your country and tell anyone else to please do the same, let's bankrupt him!!

As an American, I got tell you, OUR PRESIDENT IS AN IDIOT! He doesn't understand, how tariffs work. Or is purposely inflicting pain to all Americans with them, because he is clueless. He refuses to educate himself.

Thank goodness there are heroes like Trudeau taking a prominent stance on the world stage. It gives me hope that our allies have not gone mad, even if some of my countrymen have. We admire you and support you, Canada. Thanks for telling the truth, boldly. We love you, Trudeau.

Tell trump like it is...appalling what he is doing to this world

This moron destroyed our country and absolutely nobody in Canada wants anything to do with it anymore. We deserve a referendum and a path to statehood, no matter what these lying media will keep telling you, this is what Canadians want.

If this clown ? what’s to tell Trump he’s wrong then admit all of the resources you been using from decades and America got nothing

RIGGGHHTTT!!! Make that make sense!! Tell em again

I’m so ashamed of my country! Tell it like it is, PM Trudeau.

Canadians please disregard anything. Trump says about your Prime Minister’s speech. Americans know he’s telling the truth.

India learned that canada is no push over guess they forgot to tell donald.

RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA - didn't we tell you it was true .... so unfortunate that this wasn't dealt with via impeachment years ago !

Tell me he’s wrong with a straight face…

He’s telling A story, not THE story

I literally clicked on this just to tell CNN to stfu and that nobody believes you

As an American I am just sickened by Trump and his gang….the American government needs to remove Trump from office immediately. He is a nutcase and if his first month in office don’t tell you anything I don’t know what will

Cheers to Gen. Wesley Clark from Canada who is telling you like it is, underlining the security risk Trump and his administration pose to us all.

Wow, articulate strong talk, no lies, no propaganda, no bluster, none of the total and complete unrelenting bullshit we have endure on a daily basis from the sociopathic delusional asshole that currently occupies the White House. It should be no surprise that our leadership chooses to blame all of our problems on someone else, because that's exactly what they do every day. We have a drug problem, it's because of Canada and Mexico. We have an immigration problem, likewise Mexico and Canada. We have a deficit problem, that's because of the EU and NATO. Our problem is our government, specifically Republicans who won't accept the simple truth: you want to solve problems you have be disciplined and smart. You have to spend money to fix your problems instead of blaming some else and trying to get them to pay for it. You pay to solve your problems instead of giving huge tax cuts to people who don't need them. You stop lying to your people. You want to change the trade imbalance? Build products that other countries want at a price that makes sense. The EU has no laws that prevent American car manufacturers from selling their cars in Europe. American car companies make shitty cars. They make cars that are too big, that don't make sense for European where streets can be very small and gas is very expensive. The US manufacturers don't make a single small car in thos country that can compete with European cars. US agricultural products are laced with poisonous chemicals that are outlawed in the EU because they kill people. Our governmeent doesn't give a shit about that because to grow healthy food means you have to cut profits, almighty dollars, instead of grow things that the rest of the world will accept. We have an idiot for president who thinks he knows more than anyone else and an idiot party that won't tell him the truth. This is going to cost us big time. We are going into recession, probably a long one because we don't have real leaders and the president on his best day is nothing more than a reality TV personality, and not a very entertaining one at that.

Keep telling yourself and believing that Trump isn't in Putin's pocket. It's so crystal clear when you stop thinking like a cult member.

Canadian here. Trudeau is a ? . He's a slick double-talker who should no longer be out representing canada because he supposedly resigned weeks ago! Why isn't anyone saying anything about that?! Trudeau WANTS this trade war with the US because it is his last desperate attempt at clinging onto power. His party has been gaslighting canadians into accepting his corrupt ideology under the guise of being a liberal (trying to cancel elections, suppressing free speech, telling canadians they dont need to vote, etc). Wake up world! Do not judge a book by its cover! Just because he's handsome and has nice socks does not make him a nice guy!!

Clearly he just threatened us with fentanyl.He said that we're undermining them keeping fit in all from crossing the borders.They shouldn't keep fit andyl crossing the borders regardless of what the trade circumstances are they threatened to basically just try to fill our streets with vet and all they f***** u*I'm telling you man is guys shooting himself in the foot

Google Ukraine bustification. Them tell me your for defendijg Ukraine

WHy was Trudeau waiting for Trump to tell him to stop sending Fentanyl? US Shoudl launch military attacks on Canada's drug lord and middlemen who are doing this? Impose sanctios n canada and issue arrest warrants for Trudeau and his cabinet.

??? cnn . If trump didn't tell you to strengthen the border you wouldn't have done nothing. We thriving over here.

Thank you President Trudeau, for telling the truth about the Con-man, clownish, cruel, ignorant, criminal American President.\n\nTrump and his thugs are ruining and drowning America and risk take other countries down with them. Your righteous indignation is completely justified, noble, bold, and just.\n\nI can no longer live here; it feels like a strange, cruel country. It is being run by a madman and his minions. All cowards. All morally depraved, especially J.D. Vance. What complete hypocrisy. It is nauseating to the core.\n\nViva Canada!❤

Trudeau has never told the truth nor does he stand for freedom, just remember the truckers and what he did. He’s also not telling you the tariffs they charge the USA.

You Americans really need to get over yourselves. That was not harsh language, that was very measured and direct. Trump berated Canada with nasty language. If you want hash language, then we would tell you to F off and go and play with you puppet master, Putin.

Trump is lying to the American people like he always has and does, the man can not tell the truth. The American people are sincerely sorry.

You go Canada, tell it how it is???

Who owns the majority of the stock market? Who cares. More than half of us don't own stocks. As for Canada, Trump is doing what he thinks is best for Americans not Canada. Not any talk here on why Trump did this and no one here seems to want to know. Let the talking heads that own tons of stocks through Black Rock tell you all you need to stay in the dark.

He actually said that we're aligning with Russia! What a LIE! Meditating a war is not aligning! Tell them to pay their part! Stop reporting lies!

Now he turns around and becomes a Canadian patriot for 9 1/2 years he’s beaten us with everything he could. Canadians don’t need Trudeau and his collaborators to tell us what it means to be a Canadian. We aren’t at war with America and yes Canadians are patient, civilized and tolerant as has been clearly demonstrated since 2015. Now call a federal election.

You can tell he's lying-his lips are moving...

Don’t tell us what we are going to feel. We are going to feel great

This is what you guys wanted? You’re telling me over half of the great USA decided they want to be enemies with all our most historically loyal allies? Why?

Everybody getting over on America and we sick of it, he ain’t in America , he can’t tell us anything!!

Curious, what is a better solution to tariffs already imposed by Canada on the US? It's amazing that Canada's solution is to argue there is no justification...I'd ask Trudeau, what does Trump want? Is is unreasonable or not...if it is unreasonable, tell us why....because one thing about Trump, he is usually pretty darn clear about what he wants.

Why isn't the French part interpreted? Do you think he's telling anecdotes or poutin recepies in French?

Telling a dumb person this is a very dumb thing to do sounds more like it.....

Canada will be fine! It's the Americans that will be tariffed by many countries by the time the lunatic is done. He will burn that country to the ground. We'll see who's still standing! I'm not all that worried because besides food, which we've easily replaced what do we get from the US? Nothing we can't get elsewhere. However, the US needs our resources. The lunatic is going to speak to Canadian's later today. Someone tell him we won't be listening!

Can someone tell Truhead he increases tariffs us will increase the same residual ???? this is fair ???

Well to tell you about Trump Jesus insane as it can be the US trust him and American people want him out of office

Someone tell that woman that it needs to be flushed. Canadian bacon is a gimmick.

This isn’t’anti-Americanism’ how about anti-Canadian? As an American I can only say this breaks my heart that Donald continues to sever relationships with our nearest neighbors and Allie’s. How sad for all of us. Now tighten your belts America. This will hurt but Donald will tell you how great this is for everyone in his usual stupid bravado.

How can you tell when Justin Trudeau is lying his lips are moving?

OH JUSTIN YOU ARE SO RIGHT THIS IS VERY PERSONAL YOU MADE FUN OF HIM AND HE IS TAKING REVENGE, BUT PRESIDENT CHUMP OBVIOUSLY CANNOT SEPERATE BUSINESS FROM HIS PERSONAL PROBLEMS, THE WHOLE WORLD DOES NOT LIKE THIS GUY WHEN HIS TERM IN OFFICE IS OVER THE ONLY TWO PLACES THAT HE WOULD BE WELCOME IN IS HIS HOME COUNTRY AND RUSSIA AND I AM NOT SO SURE ABOUT RUSSIA I WROTE ON YOUTUBE BEFORE THAT THIS GUY IS SINKING THE AMERICAN FLEET FAST AND MORE THOROUGHLY THAN THE JAPANESE DID AT PEARL HAROR MAN AT THIS MOMENT THE TWO WORST NATIONALITIES TO BE IS AMERICAN AND RUSSIAN THEY BOTH ARE CAUSING GREAT HARM NOT ONLY TO THE WORLD, BUT MOSTLY TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND COUNTRIES TALK ABOUT SELFISH LEADER'S. PRESIDENT CHUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING WITH THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW IT IS NOT IF WE WILL ENGAGE EACH OTHER IN A WORLD WAR, BUT WHEN THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW ARE STEERING THE HUMAN RACE IN THAT DIRECTION AND PRESIDENT CHUMP YOU AND PRESIDENT POUTINE WILL BE CHIEFLY RESPONSIBLE. THE LEADER'S WE HAVE ELECTED TODAY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE MISERY IN THE WORLD TODAY. LEADER'S LIKE PRESIDENT KENNEDY, GHANDI, CHURCHILL ETC. TODAY WE HAVE LEADER'S LIKE TRUDEAU WHO CREATED MISERY AND DIVISION IN CANADA THE FORE MENTIONED LEADER'S ALREADY METIONED ARE DIRECTED BY PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION AND HYPOCRACY. PRESIDENT ZELINSKY I AM AFFRAID LEADER'S LIKE YOU THAT HAVE COURAGE INTEGRITY AND STRENGHT ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN I AM SORRY TO TELL YOU BUT I THINK IN REALTY YOU STAND ALONE NOT MANY LEADER'S TODAY PUT COUNTRY AND COUNTRYMEN AND WOMEN BEFORE THEIR PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION, BUT IF YOU SUCCEED YOU WILL BE STRONGER AND FAR BETTER OFF GOD BLESS
