As a German who loves and stayed in Canada, I say right on.\nThis btw is how a sense making political leader sounds, clearly different than agent #47.

Trudeau screwed Canadians & they couldn’t wait to get him out of office!! \nCanada is broke and can’t afford 25% tariffs. All Canada has to do is open business in USA!\nMade in the USA ?? \nCanada gave 20billion to Ukraine vs USA giving over 150 billion plus militaryequipment equipment. Ukraine realizes Trump was right, The WAR needs to end. ????????????

Europe and Canada will not buy Tesla's anymore. Bye bye Musk. You wants to rule the world, but your sinking ship is leaving right now.

Trudeau is the man!!,we could only dream of having a leader like him.Reminds me that Canada is just a better version of the United States,they're better than us and much better off than we are....I mean they don't have a bunch of rich,disguisting pigs running the country or a fat orange wannabe dictator who is full of himself....Everything Trudeau had to say here couldn't be more right....

Yes Fentanyl is a terrible thing. But I know for a fact its the 1st thing they give you in the hospital now a days in Canada for pain not sure about the United States. Obviously in very very small doses but im sure the price us right.

Why is this dude still representing Canada? \n\nTwo months ago many of his key cabinets members resigned because Justin’s policies are destroying Canadians. Rightfully, he resigned. Dude needs to go away. Stop making Canada worse than what it has become under his horrendous leadership.\n\nThings happening:\n\nThe massive influx of foreigners, both legally and illegally into Canada.\n\nAffordable housing for native Canadians do not exist, people are leaving the country.\n\nHi mortgage payment or monthly rent are too high.\n\nFood prices are not coming down.\n\nSalaries are not keeping up with inflation.\n\nThe Canadian dollar keeps tanking.\n\nAs the leader of the country, he’s doing nothing to stop increasing violent crime.\n\nIncreasing amount of drugs in cities and suburbs.\n\nFinally, he’s pledging billions of dollars to Ukraine, when that money is needed at home.\n\nJustin is too emotional to deal with Trump.\n\nTrump complains about the trading balance between the two nations, $100 billion in favor of Canada.\n\nThe request is simple, import more American products, or export less products to America. But the imbalance has to stop.\n\nSame with Mexico, trading balance with Mexico is almost $200 billion in favor of Mexico. The imbalance has to stop. \n\nThe US economy is bleeding by trading with allies and partners, it’s fighting for its financial wellbeing. It is not some bs from the orange man, it is real.\n\nOf course Canada, Mexico, Europe and others want business as usual… and why wouldn’t they? ?

Wait until Trump sends his troops into Canada. MAGA , musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Putin, and North Korea are right behind him. You used to be a democracy like America was. America was once known as the United States of America. MAGA has forced the world to call that former great country Shitland.

Yet Canada hates him right now, Just as much as all of you hate Trump. Trump never said he sided with Russia and I really wish all of you dimwits would donate your personal money, or personally volunteer to step on the front lines. They have no manpower and y'all are idiots to think that it makes sense to give a country backing after they're the ones who threaten to join NATO and clearly most of y'all don't even know that NATO started this bullshit by going against their promises to Russia and they have added eight former Soviet countries to their union. At this point I'm okay with giving half of the US to the libtards So you guys can pay taxes to fund every other country but your own. Yuck.

I’m an Indigenous American here, I say if Canada was really our friend then they would understand that they have been taking advantage of our countries kindness for too long and it’s time they step up.. If us trying to do something good for our own country for one time instead of everybody else and it’s a problem like this then maybe we weren’t friends anyway.. That means u were only friendly bc u were taking advantage.. \nPlenty of other countries has decided to pick up their own slack and it’s time Canada and America and the other countries start focusing more on their own citizens.. \nThis man is ready to send Canadian soldiers to die in Ukraine right now for something that has nothing to do with them and now instead of negotiating an agreement it’s all about relation and hurting your own people to get back at others over something you took personally..\nI always liked Trudeau but if that’s how he feels about our country then that’s how we feel about his.. \nwe don’t care about Canada anymore except justing Bieber and Linus media group.. everyone else can go lol..

Trump is an embarrassment. He is completely UN- USA. He doesn't even realized Canada, Mexico, Central and South American, are all Americans. Canada you are right and I stand with you. These are such sad times.

Poud full blooded american here, but i stand with Canada's Prime Minister doing the right thing, and standing against threat, bullying trash talk (threats). Watching this from my home in British Columbia.

I am so embarrassed to be an American right now.....\nI stand with Canada! I would leave America and move to Canada in a second if they'd have me.

What a nauseating twit. Hey Justin...tariffs on American goods are a tax on Canadians! I forgot-- you love taxes, because you're a socialist. You were right when you told Trump Canada can't survive this--because Canada isn't a real country.

It is interesting to see how many people believe they are right supporting Trudeau (and Selensky) and not realizing they are too dumb to understand the whole picture. USA can be happy to have a president who finally ends the big Deep State scam against the own taxpaying people. UK, Canada, France, Germany etc. should also have such leaders to save the people from betrayal by elites and Ursula von der Leyen in Brussels.

Canada has rights to self defence.

See this is where he is wrong. Now that trumps in office. Now we will be fracking, milling, and mining. So what do we really need from Canada. That’s right the American companies that deserted the USA to come home. Canada is always crying man up bro.

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

Mr president Canada, u need to pay for what u get! Trump is doing right things for the American people. You just wanna get all and at the same time u complain a lot. The game is win win… you can’t come the front to fight with Russia but you encourage the canadian people to fight for u?

Love you Canada You did the right things. Kick The Trump dictator leader.

CNN is so full of shit they can’t even talk the facts of Donald Trump getting himself in this shit. Pink suit mama Paula is stuttering all over herself. The first thing she says is how Trudeau spoke of how it’s going to be hard on Canada and then stuttered about it being hard for Americans. But she FAILED to mention that Canada has vowed to be there and make amends for its citizens unlike America whose government has hung its citizens out to dry. CNN also failed to mention ton that Trump signed the current trade agreement when he was president for his first term. Never thought I would see the day CNN would skirt the issue trying their damndest not to use the words the rest of the world is saying and that’s “What the fuck Donald?” Shame on you CNN. You’re the reason the right information isn’t being put out there.

Trump is not the sole reason we’re here. Canada, please continue to do right by your citizenry, their health care, and strive for an educated public. The country you see before you is unfortunately under the influence of Putin’s minions & sycophants.

As a Brit we often hear how the USA came to our aid when we stood alone against Hitler. True but Canada was there right by our side years before from almost day one. Great to see Canada still has some fight in them, huge respect from the UK.

If it wasn't so cold in Canada I'd move there right now

Statement from the man who took Canadians bank accounts and rights during covid 19. Does anybody remember the truckers in Canada and people being arrested and locked up indefinitely?

I AM CANADIAN. And sad to say I and my family were Trump supporters through halfway through his first term. The BS and blantent vugar talk from his mouth and now criminal conviction was enough. But now that I see Elon Musk , Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezzos and other billionaires in his shady corner I knew something wasnt right! And after how President Zelenskyy was treated, disgusting right for the news to see on purpose. Your President is way too close to Putin and who knows what other countries. Trump, and his cronies want the spoils and treasures of Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and Gazza! BTW Trump your welcome from Canada ?? for helping putting out your fires in California! But, then again we know you wont thank Canada! Hey Americans Canada ?? loves you! Alot of great history together! Lets not let trump and his cronies divide us!

Ohh no Canada I’m so scared? What are going to do take away our gun rights like you did to your own citizens? Or just freeze our bank accounts

So embarrassed to be an American right now. Especially one who hails from North Dakota. We love Canada! Many of us are SO sorry about this orange Cheeto in charge. ❤ As a country, we need to impeach this a$$hole.

Trump is right, trudeau is selling off canada to china and india.

He is right Canada ? at is trump doing at all same reason he is selling American government houses we the seniors can't afford higher food is ridiculous. We don't count any way we only worked 30 years to be poore is not worth it to work with illness like I did heart patient and sle lupus and many more and that never stopt me from working only to find out I be poor when I have to retire why why are seniors so poore.

I stand for the citizens of Canada, but this man has RUINED your country…Trump is right! Canada has benefited from the US financially while we have payed the brunt of most of the costs.

American here… can I come live in Canada?? I am so ashamed right now!!! I stand with you Canada!!!

USA desperately needed planes diverted on 9/11, our airspace was shut down, Canada was right there for us, to take on massive unknown risk not knowing if planes had bombs; Canada entered WWII, years prior to the US, barley spoken of yet they stood tall without hesitation to fight for freedom and for QEII's funeral it was the Royal Canadian mounted police who were first in procession, a massive honor bestowed by the Queen, and much more. We can still banter with one other as always have + Canadians know that sane Americans, do not represent this madness!

As an American, I stand with you Canada. Thank you for standing up for what's right, even if it costs us. We need to learn. ??

Canada is absolutely right and I’m embarrassed to be a part of USA

American citizen here...Good for Canada. They are doing the right thing.

while canada doesnt want to be 51 state, there’s Taiwan licking Trump and giving them 100billion USD in chip investment in Arizona, Trump’s happy right now

We're all so disgusted and saddened about all of this. You're so right about everything that you're saying about trump; Putin has his puppet in this country and he's making the most of it, by helping trump to become dictator here. Please Canada, do what you have to do, we don't want this either; we're stuck with trump until our congress grows a spine and kicks this ugly, vindictive man out of office! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, you are what is needed in this crisis! I'm glad to be a Canadian, I just wish I was living there, not here. What a total embarrassment to us all that did not vote for trump. (from Sandi Paquet)

Wow I'm sorry Canada! This is not what we want either!! Very embarrassing to be an American right now. ?

I thought you were gone Trudy. We like you Canada but we don’t really need you. We can solve the problems we get from you in 15 minutes. This guy has no problem freezing protesters bank accounts, forcing people to scan QR codes to decided who eats at a restaurant, and government sanctioned beatings of peaceful protesters because they dare stand up for freedom. Canada wake up. Trudy is a good old fashioned communist. The more he fights back against Trump, the more I know Trump is right.

That's hilarious how CNN has adopted a loser PM of a third world country to be it's faint beacon of their version of Democracy. \n \nCanada is a colony of the UK. It's not a Democracy. \n \nIn this day and age of freedom and independence, and respect for human rights, Canada and the UK governments should be ashamed that colonialism is still their guiding principle. \nI find that ridiculous that CNN does not see the hypocrisy of Canada and the UK leading the call for continued Ukraine independence. \n \nIs this slavish relationship the attraction for CNN and it's ignorant presenters? Isn't CNN the least bit ashamed they admire slavery in the 21st century and that they are giving voice to colonialists?

Suddenly he want to fight drugs while for past years you legalize every possible drug i Canada. You should be ashamed of yourself Trudeau. When Trump wanted to put tarrifs on Canada you were gone to Portugal apart of making a deal with the guy. Now you cry like a little guy and blaming Trunp for everything while you wasnt even here to negotiate and you shut down Canadian government for your own partisan purpose and government does not exist right now in Canada just because you afraid of loosing election so you just trying to survive as a PM for as long as possible. Not trump but YOU destroyed Canada and its economy and making Canadians life harder and harder and spending our tax money all over the world

I used to be proud to be American. Now I wish I lived in Canada ? Our country sucks right now

Any chance the US can become the 11th province of Canada? So ashamed and embarrassed to be an American right now. So impressed with the dignity and clarity with which you spoke. In sharp contrast to the vague, sweeping and hostile lies of our “leader” every time he opens his mouth.

Canada, we are sorry. 49 % of our voters lost their mind. Prime Minister of Canada is right, no one wins a trade war. Nor is this war or the trade war with Mexico is justified.

So for everyone fawning over Trudeau's ability to be articulate, that is impressive to you only because the U.S. has had a piece of steamed broccoli named Biden as a figure head for the last 4 years.\nI can't say I understand Trump's strategy with respect to Canada, but I absolutely know that Trump is no Socialist like Trudeau is. I am happy to wait and see how this shakes out because Trump has been right on so, so many things. No one is perfect, not Trump and not Trudeau. Maybe it's not about drugs. Maybe Canada could offer to go back to respecting individual liberties and free speech in return for the elimination of U.S. tariffs. Sounds like something Trump would agree to.

I love Americans, you're always welcome here. Trump has the right to do what's best for America, but Canada needs to start building a strong partnership with more stable and predictable countries like China and certain EU nations. No more blindly following the US in their foreign policy endeavors and wars for Israel.

Canada has no nukes and no aircraft carriers. It will suck the left teat until we say move to the right.

canada just good in talking ..70% of us money goes to canada..without u.s canada will not survive..trump is right..

Paula Newton, how dare you use the phrase anti-americanism! This is one of the most emotionally contained and dignified responses do the bullying president of the United States that I've heard so far. Trudeau has every right to be as pointed as he wants. I hate what Trump is doing and I live here! Trump doesn't speak for me. I have friends in Canada. Canadians are absolutely welcomed to help us do something to rein in the power of the dictator in training, Trump.
