Wake up Countrymen! Listen to this dignified, direct and truthful Canadian Prime Minister! Act now!

Walk out during his address. Make a statement. Walk out for her, me and country. Do not fail. Stand up for USA and walk out. just do it. Walk out. Listen to us. Walk out. Walk out. Do it. Walk out. Stop talking. Walk out.

Even when leaders of other countries speak “harshly” which I think is really just speaking directly, but the leaders I’ve heard in their harsh’s tones, never speak the despicable language that Trump uses with his derogatory, name-calling and vicious, lashing out that he does he never pauses, take a deep breath and can consider the 2% of truth his adversaries are speaking of he simply can’t negotiate or compromise or even listen for God sake. He’s only a few years older than me. We have learned by this age to shut our mouths and listen sometimes, but not him. No, he has not learned that lesson. He has not learned to listen to others and to care for others.

Trudeau is scared that’s why he has made this speech. Canada has been manipulated by the European Union and if all of you people from Canada and USA could see the state of the uk and Europe in real life you would listen to trump.

We knew this during the campaign. No body in the right listened now we all have to suffer. ?

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.)

This the same guy making fun of black people right, painting his face black? Yeah I doubt id listen to him

fentanyl is a legal drug made by our drug companies. its abused and used illegally. maybe stop listening to a man that cant not lie.

Prime Minister, I have not voted for you three times. I have not really agreed with your policies since you came to power. I have even thought that you did not know when to make a 'dignified departure. And now today when you have literally five days left before you step off the dais for good, I listen to you and am proud. This is what a leader does and says and I give you my respect and thanks as a fellow Canadian.

Listening to this, them damn Canadians got themselves a real leader. That's what im talking about.

With an election on the way for the Leader of the country and a federal election on the way, I wouldn't listen to or negotiate with a government likely on their way out, I'd just wait them out.

Canadian here. My husband and I listen at you here on CNN Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and we couldn't be more proud of you and your team. You say intelligent words right from the start and you deliver a strong message in a very strong manner, beginning with this: the US is declaring economic war on Canada, as well as strong arguments, and that fentanyl is just a pretext, which we all already know, that getting closer to Russia and cutting ties with its allies is Donald Trump's current course of action, and the fair question to ask is why is this man putting himself at the service of the Kremlin which is totally unnatural for an American.?

Thanks for speaking to all Americans the truth. Many listen to propaganda in America as you know. Many news outlets are owned by oligarchs.

American here,in full support of President Trump. Someone needs to be the bad guy and fix the globalist corruption. I personally never listen to or watch CNN. Canada is in a economic and cultural downfall for a reason. I have never supported Castros Bastard son, Trudeau. I love real Canadians and believe Canada would be much better as a US Territory/ State and hope they get rid of this weak little boy.

As an American i want world leaders to talk to Americans and share how we can solve this. They won't listen to us. South Korea shared with us how to get rid of a criminal leader.

It’s hilarious that Trudeau has to call Trump a smart guy, knowing that he is so incredible childish and immature that otherwise he would just not listen. Trump is the worst president the US has ever had.

For God's sake don't listen to trudeau. His government put us in the mess we are in and the tarrifs are just another kick in the stomach to us citizens

12:43 notice how CNN won’t just let you listen to the uncut speech and makes sure they spoon feed you an opinion halfway through. Trudeau is a terrible leader, please open your eyes and think deeply about what he says. Don’t just immediately agree because he matches your anti trump bias

damn sounds like the little brother is giving the big brother advice. Now, will he listen?

Whether you like him or not. Listen to him speak vs Pierre polivrre. Pierre sounds like a whiny child

You were warned by sane logical people over and over and OVER again but did the majority of you Americans listen to reason? Nope. You decided to screw yourselves and the other nations.

American people, don't listen to this clown. We are not your enemies, we don't need anything from you.

Do people actually think that Trump will tell the truth? He's the father of lies.\nDo people think that fentanyl is NOT made in the USA?\nWhy does the USA have SO MANY DOPE FIENDS??\n\nTo all republicans that voted for Trump and you have lost your job or are hurting....GOOD FOR YOU!!!! I wish things become unbearably WORSE. Trump showed ya'll during his first administration, ya'll saw what he did while not in office, and we WARNED ya'll but some way ya'll got amnesia. Basic elementary understanding economics will tell you that:\n1) Tariff is another tax on the people in the country that is issuing the tariff\n2) Cost will always be lower four years prior (except for the period near the great depression) than the current year.\n3) Did ya'll forget about the damage the pandemic did and how some merchants were price gouging...and Biden was going after price gougers?\n\nI could go on and on but I assume that if you didn't listen or pay attention for 8 years, you definitely aint listening to me.

Watch trudeau speak? Yeah no thanks, just came here to comment this. Nobody should be listening to this clown except for the psychiatrist assigned to him at a mental institution. Pray for Canada, pray for the trudeau regime's collapse.

I'm a American and don't like how our government is playing. I support Canada and Ukraine and Mexico. Prime Minister Justine Trudeau spoke very clear, it was good to listen to him. I hope my people will listen too.

Listen to the world's biggest hypocrite, who single handedly destroyed our Country, and our economy.What a P.O.S.!!

Listen all over the world react to Donald Trump. Looking at in the old testement how God punish His people. United States now loosing the free world leader now. It's a shame. I'm not sure who is the dictator now. A free world leader not speaking like a 6 years old kit. America is a christian country, American should speak or talking like a christian, not talk like evil.

I love listening to Canada bashing us. I find it to be soothing. Maybe it's just the voice of sanity we are not hearing from our own politicians.

As if we're going to listen to a guy that has TNAKED his country over the oast decade. Get bent

Canadian Prime Minister is a Real mature man that speaks eloquently and is intelligent and is correct and fair !!\n Beautiful speech , thank you Prime Minister, we as Middle class Americans are fighting for our survival and are scared that Trump is listening to billionaires instead of the People!!❤️???

I physically can't listen to Trump more than 30 seconds. Since 2016. He has the vocabulary of an uneducated child and he's getting worse. Now see Trudeau, what a delight.

As an American I am so sorry for the pathetic acts of that man who isn't my president. He has the job and he's fucking it up properly. I am sorry. We are sorry. We will make up for this in the future and history will hold the asshole responsible. Again I'm sorry. We don't want this. They don't listen and our elected representatives are underpowered and weak to fix things.\n\nAre you guys taking American political refugees yet? I'm ready to come north.

For the first time, I actually listened and cared for what Trudeau had to say for our country. It affects a lot of people that is Blue-Colored Workers.

Going to be interesting to listen to Trump lying to Congress tonight. His only other option is to avoid talking about tariffs. And the big question: will Congress wake up tonight and start asking questions about what Trump is doing and why (the real reasons)? Lastly, why the big hurry to cozy up to Russia? What is in that for the USA?

Your leader Canada and Europe leaders are too woke for me. That is my big problem with you. But you don't listen so l don't listen. YOU TOO CNN. This popped up, the only reason l'm writing this because l don't listen to you.

Great Job Canada!! Unfortunately, he is too stubborn to listen.

Quite the stark contrast between Trudeau and Trump. People who listen to Trump’s vile gibberish and then think of him as a capable leader puzzle me.

A very well articulated speech, so much clearer than Trumps clumsy ramblings. I hope Trump's listening to this, but I doubt it, he only listens to people who agree with him. Well spoken Justin Trudeau!

When trump started blaming all the immigrants for the economic woes of the us like it’s 1945 I knew better than to listen to his bs. He lies and says what he needs to to act like a dictator. I didn’t vote for him. Nor will I ever be ok with him being on putins side or bragging about being friends with Kim jun un. He’s an idiot.

The man speaks from the HEART is truthful, listen to him trump, this man is not power driven like you he cares about humans

Trumpty dumpty doesn’t listen to a word PM Trudeau says. He considers Trudeau a lame duck as he’s resigned. Congratulations Trump you sure look tough creating an economic trade war with your allies

I can’t stand listening to Dr. Lloyd. What do you waste of skin

I wish I could move to Canada where there are actual “rational thinking leaders”. It is so refreshing to listen to President Trudeau…he seems so sane, so even tempered and SO normal and he presents himself as a very mature thinking adult with excellent leadership, communication and motivational skills. So sad that we cannot say that about Trump and his pathetic “cult-like” followers!

As a Canadian my personal politics may not always be in line with other citizens of the world, however I can respectfully agree to disagree, allowing more dialogue and discussion to continue in order to reach an agreeable compromise to find the best winning formula for all concerned. \nI have watched and listened to many American politicians from John F Kennedy to Joe Bidden, to leaders like Marin Luther King, Malcolm X, Bernie Saunders, all have something in common, respect, decorum, world knowledge, integrity, truth, honesty, honour, and heart. \nStrength is when you are able to reach out to lift someone up not to knock them down. Even the greatest professional boxers know the difference of being humble and kind when there advisory is in trouble. \nFor the first time in the history of your country you have a bully, narcissist and pathological liar, who is vulgar and unpolished as a man, father and as the President of your nation.\nI have seen our own Canadian leaders, make mistakes, stumble and fail, however they displayed grace and admitted to their shortcomings.\nI have never seen a world leader be obsessed with things such as plastic straws, pennies, flushing toilets, Hannibal Lecter, Arnold Palmer's manhood, a leader who's completely obsessed with selling souvenir and bubbles while his citizens are homeless, hungry, jobless, with runaway inflation so that something as simple as a dozen eggs are now a luxury item. \n\nYou have a president who spends millions of dollars so that he can play golf at one of his own properties, meanwhile his country is neglected. \nA brief look at his past record the pandemic under his watchful eye would have you drink bleach as a cure as many died and billionaires increased their combined wealth by trillions of dollars while the middle class and poor suffered. \nThe opioid crisis was settled under his watch which let Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family avoid jail time for committing the death and destruction of millions of lives in America. Yet Donald Trump is obsessed with the drug cartels in other countries yet he overlooks those terrorist in his own country. Is it because they are billionaires and potential cronies of his?\nRather than be completely obsessed with tariffs and creating the next disaster with his Trump Gaza Holocaust Resort, Your leader could be looking at fixing the country's infrastructure of roads, brides, tunnels, ensuring a healthy supply of drinking water, rail, housing for the homeless, affordable health care, affordable education, etc.\n\nDonald Trump is surrounded by his clowns is not just making a mockery of your country but is leading you into a very dark hole. \nThe shame and humiliation that Donald Trump has brought to your country since his inauguration will take years to correct if he is stopped now. If you the American people wait four years, WW Three will be here and it will take centuries to recover. \nTHE FUTURE IS NOW, NOT IN FOUR YEARS. AS AMERICANS YOU MUST BE WILLING TO ENSURE A TOMORROW FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.... UNDER THE CURRENT REGIME YOU ARE HEADED TO A DEAD END.

It is so comforting listening to a politician speaking the way he does

Trudeau is speaking the truth to the American people. Will , Our Red States, listen? I don't know. I do know the current U.S. Administration is acting against America and it's citizens and it must stop NOW!

I wanted to listen to prime minister no your comments

We have just listened to a true statesman. Thank you, Mr Trudeau, just for being on the right spot at the right time.\n\nI hope that our new government in Germany will act as wise, polite and considerate as you seem to do it.

Listen…honey, these people need to stop saying, “…we’re speaking to the American people.” Chile, we ain’t got nothing to do with this. Direct all commentary to 47 and his administration. Thanks.

Please do not listen to this moron. He is leaving the position and will dig the grave for another moron coming in his position
