Stand tall and do not bend the knee. The northern states should do more to fight Trump. This will hurt them. Remember Bellingham when the Canadian dollar was $1.50. Bellingham shut down and jobs were lost.

I could not be more assured,as a Canadian, by the great unscripted,direct speech our leader,Prime Minister Trudeau, has delivered to Canadians and Americans. Everyday people will hurt through this and remember, it will not affect the oligarchy Trump has created, because they can withstand downturns in economies through wealth. His goal is to crush the Canadian economy in the guise of creating better paying jobs for American. Complete unhinged fallacy.

Stay strong Cananda! Canada liberated The Netherlands not the USA..we will remember

Canada. Please keep in mind that we are in a new age of media and rational Americans have been duped by really bad information. Take care of yourselves, but remember that this is a dark time for the USA at home too.

As an American who opposes - STRONGLY opposes - the Trump administration and everything it stands for, I am sorry for what our country's government is doing to the rest of the world but especially to our oldest, closest allies. \n\nThe MAGA faithful will remain faithful even as the prices of virtually everything goes up and up and our economy tanks. They believe what comes out of Trump's mouth no matter what it is, no matter how obvious reality proves him wrong. Those of us who know what Trump really is have known what he's really about since the beginning. He's about himself and nothing more. His every move, his every word is about further enriching himself and patting himself on the back for his greatness.\n\nHis election to a 2nd term (and maybe more if he decides to ignore our Constitution) will be written about in the history books and it will not be favorable. This is what he wants, though. He wants to be thought of as an influential figure. Well, he is that. But so was a certain little Austrian monster who is remembered with great shame and disgust.

I remember when as a child we would travel to Canada. We did not need a passport. I'm shame that Idiots are in charge of this BS!

Remember when this same fellow froze protesters bank accounts and began collecting peoples weapons? Yet, he has the gull to talk about dictators. Trump actually wants to avoid WWIII and I hope what his administration does will bring an end to the war. Though, I do agree he should be more tough on Putin. That being said, I do agree that the crossings from Canada are not nearly as significant as compared to our southern border. It would be nice to see more from Canada in their investments to secure the border and stop crossings, cartel movements, and drug operations. The US has spent more than 409 billion since 2003 on such operations. Regardless, I feel for you Canadians and it sucks that it has come to this and I hope we keep strong relations in the future. Hopefully we can come to a fair deal soon. Mexico and China are the big players that do not do nearly enough to prevent these crimes. In fact, the Mexican government helps the cartels by not trying to stop them. China's lack of regulation on the ingredients to make fentanyl contribute to a large extent to this tragedy as well.

I hope Canadians remember this is not the direct feeling of Americans and that this foolish leadership doesnt represent us all. ?

As a child, I remember my sister-in-law, who lived under the regime of Hitler, explain to me the horrors that occurred in their country by this tyrant. Now, the USA has a maniac who is taking us Americans through the same things that Hitler took my sister-in-law and her family through. Being an older African American woman, I am not afraid of this President, or what he can do, I grew up with strong black women, and he can't bring me down!! I respect Canada for standing up for themselves. May God ever bless and keep you.

Don’t worry, liberal filthy garbage America will do just fine. Remember we stand for traditional family values and that’s what God stands for…

Oh Canada… we remember 2020… AND we don’t get food from you, you’re just harming your own citizens here…

Trust Trudeau i think not, we still remember your dictator type response at the Truck protest

Don’t worry, liberal filthy garbage America will do just fine. Remember we stand for traditional family values and that’s what God stands for…

I love how when he addresses Trump directly he dumbs it down and speaks like hes talking to a 3 year old…well done. I am an American but I am HUMAN first. Something the rest of my countrymen should take a moment and try remember.

We have a MORON in the White House who should be in a NURSING Home, NOT running a Country, Also remember he is a CONVICTED Rapist , the American People have lost their way.

??T RUMP is a fool ?WE LOVE YOU CANADA ?? , REMEMBER THAT DIDN'T WORK FOR MCKINLEY EITHER ??

People start saying trump play on russian side if i good remember russian spy are in white house from begining hehe

I'm from Maine with a Franco American heritage. I am heartbroken today… remembering open borders between our countries, no passport required. I support Canada ?? and Canada's leadership looking out for their people.

To the Global Ecomony: Americans understand that you have to stand on business but remember that the American public didnt ask for this. We are embarrassed by the Dump administration. Pray for us.

❤ Canada. We, the sane, non-MAGAt Americans, also do not want this, nor did we vote for this because we did NOT vote for an obviously mentally ill, functionally illiterate, elderly man with signs of dementia, whose main function besides destroying our country to enrich himself & all of his millionaire & billionaire buddies, is acting as a useful idiot pain for Putin. We, the Americans who value what our country has stood for, whose fathers & and grandfathers fought in both World Wars, who lived in the time before all of the current vaccines existed, who believe in equality, who value the immigrants--documented or undocumented, who believe our country should welcome them & make their paths to citizenship easier because we understand how our country & economy benefit from them living in this country, who understand & value the roles that the WHO, NATO, & the United Nations have played in keeping us ALL safer for many decades bc we REMEMBER or were told by our parents, what it was like b4 those things existed, who either lived thru The Great Depression or had parents & grandparents did, understand what the economic crisis that Trump & his band of greedy ahole idiots are deliberately causing. WE didn't do this. WE fought against it. We tried to explain & warn people about what is happening & what will happen, but you didn't EFFING LISTEN. WE are ANGRY. WE will NOT help any of you who caused this & this includes every MSM who is too afraid to speak truth to power. Start doing that NOW. Start with THIS: It's called The Gulf of Mexico, NOT the Gulf of America. Eff every Trump supporters & GOP politician--at EVERY level of government. Trump can TRY to hide what he's doing to the economy in his stupid reports. Do you honestly believe the average American pays attention to those? No, most are too busy worrying over how to pay their bills & all they'll see is that their situation is getting worse. They can't find a job. They can't afford gas. They can't afford groceries. You can't cover any of that up. WE stand with Canada, Ukraine, the EU, & every other ally nation. Not Russia. Putin can go straight to hell & the sooner the better.

Only some of America wants this. The rest of us think Donny and Elon are crazy. ❤? Hang in there! Remember many of us love you Canada!

trudeau = globalizt and a danger to the canadian society... remember how Trudeau called Truckers for t*rrorists... he is a mad degenerate idiot.

Remember, you voted for this . Shame on you . Shame on us .

Canadians, just remember Trump won the election with 49.9% of the vote so 50.1% of American voters did not vote for him! Half of us Americans are still sane...

God bless the brave people of Canada for standing up to our unstable president and vice president. I am sad for the country I call home. I am still at a loss and feel very unsettled that Donald Trump was elected president. His presidency is marked by retaliation and actions that are ego boosting for him. Yet, many people don’t see it this way ?‍♀️. I am hoping and praying that other countries remember that not everyone is on board with Donald Trump and his party.

Awesome speech by Tredeau, and im not a Trudeau at all. Best speech I've heard in a long while.\nAmerica got duped by Russia.... trump is on russia's side... a long time enemy. No one remembers russians as the bad guys? I do.\n They will brain wash USA for pro russian propaganda. Canada is also russias enemy.... russias knows this so they get trump in to attack canada so russia has better influence in the arctic with USA's backing.

Dumb is as dumb does. If it looks like a skunk, and it smells like a skunk..... it's a skunk. Congratulations Trump. You won't have to worry about being remembered for your legacy. You will be the poster boy for why on'e vote does count and what happens if one puts 'dumb' into a position of power.

Listen to these assholes the trying to convince us free trade helps the people lol. The reson both parents have to work for lesx value was because of free trade itonley helped big corporations not us same ass illegals jing jobs. And lowering wages. I remember thats what demacrats used to say ?

As an American, i want to say sorry. I didnt vote for him and i would never vote for him. Im sorry we both have to deal with this. Im so proud of you all and respect you all for this decision. Please remember us.❤

Mr Trudeau, thank you for your excellent clear and concise speech. You hit all the points. Thanks for standing up for Canada and the Free World. Please remember our Ukrainian friends...

Just remember to Canadians they are the Geneva suggestions.

The WSJ is correct about it being dumb but remember it was 75Million Dumb Yanks who love what he is doing and that is quite stupid and scary ?

I remember your previous video on Canada. You missed a lot of the warning signs that many Canadians saw that you're highlighting now

Canadian here (NS): Not the biggest Trudeau fan the last couple years.. buuuut he is hands down more a world class leader of his country than trump every could be right now or ever in the future now. What a shitshow. Trudeau REITERATED the wall street journal's words.. dont spin it like trudeau just name called him out of the blue in the hopes to insite something else. Look INWARD (cough*trump*) and fix your shit. Remember these days my american friends.

Trump does not speak for all USA citizens. Many of we Americans also want to be friends and allies and are totally against the Trump policies. Remember, he only won the election by 1.47% of voters with 89.2 million eligible (unbelievable) voters not bothering to voting. USA is worth fighting for!

America is not at war with Canada. Trump is at war with Canada. Remember half of the population rejected Trump during the election.

America we can fight tyranny. Remember theirs more us than our government. Resist!

Historically speaking, walls on borders have been used to effectively keep people *_in_* and not out! Does anyone remember the iron curtain? \nWe're not going to have any trading partners left in the world, because we have turned our back on all of our traditional allies...\nHoly shit... Never thought I'd see this happen in my lifetime.

a 1.3 billion dollar waste of money for extra border security. We did this to appease the unappeasable. He never intended to stop the tariffs, he just wanted us to spend out money. He's trying to bankrupt Canada. STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY ON TRUMPS DESIGNS. Remember WE the public are paying for this, THEY (our governments/the Upper Class) are benefiting. As Trump crashes the markets, who do you think is buying it up, think about it.

As a Canadian who lives in (largely French-speaking) Quebec, I don't know if our gov't even NEEDS to tariff American consumer goods, the people here are already boycotting US goods and companies en masse. EVERYBODY is doing it - and the pace isn't going to recede anytime soon. Even after the Orange Turd is long gone, trust me, Canadians will remember this! The American state has proven it cannot be trusted. They have unilaterally broken the trade agreement (negotiated by the previous Donald J Chump administration) on the flimsiest of reasons, the 00.2 % of fentanyl that flows over the border into the US from Canada. That deal now obviously not worth the paper it was signed on.

I wonder why King Charles has chosen to give Trump a State Visit when Trump has declared economic war on part of his 'commonwealth'? Trump should remember that King Charles is also de-facto head of the Canadian state - Trudeau is the King's 'Prime Minister'. As a Brit, I stand with Canada and will boycott American goods for the rest of my life - no forgiveness!

Trump also needs to remember this, Canada is a commonwealth country . They do not stand alone

Donald Dump is a dumpster fire. He and JD are complete idiots, Canada doesn't allow drugs into US, LMFAO. They have single handedly ruined of decades of partnership and friendship, gone for ever in just a few weeks! We might be small, but mighty, unfortunately it will be everyday Americans who will feel the pain. Millions less trips to USA from Canadians, BuyCanadian, all US alcohol no longer available throughout Canada, AND Gov'ts not allow US companies to bid on procurement. 100's of Billions will be lost to everyday Americans, and remember you have Donny and JD for it all!

we All get to Pay for this. When YOU start suffering, just remember Who insisted on starting All this. EVERYBODY loses. Also the americans.

Remember....NOT EVERY US CITIZEN voted for the ROTUS! A minority of us said NO!...we did not win, but we said NO!!!

Remember, thus is the tyrant who turned off people's bank accounts in the middle of winter because he didn't like people disagreeing with him.\nCanadian Supreme Court later found this was illegal but the damage had been done.\nCanada has had tariffs on American imports for years! This is a bully whining that he is finally being called out.\nTrudeau is a puppet of China.

Just remember this fool is no longer the Prime Minister he resigned. So he shouldn't even be involved with this sht. He's a fool!

Has everyone forgot that during Trumps first term HE signed the biggest and best trade deal that anyone’s ever seen ( in his words ) with Mexico and Canada? He sat right in front of cameras and did it , and as usual showed off his fantastic signature. THAT trade deal was NEVER changed, even thru the last 4 years administration. But all of a sudden Trump walks in mouthing about it, blaming everyone else for it, and ready to change things? Why? What’s the issue? Let me guess… does he not remember doing that either?

I’m an American . I think your dude needs to slow his roll. I don’t think we need Canada and we don’t want to support anyone who would close his citizens bank accounts because they don’t like what they support. Remember that !?

Anyone listening to this tyrant must have a short memory. He has taken your right to defend yourself , your freedom of speech, remember the trucker protest? This guy is a globalist cuck. Hope you guys vote in better leadership.
