It takes a Canadian to speak the truth!

You're reasonable? Don't place your opinion on all Canadians. They don't agree with your leftist actions. If you were reasonable you wouldn't be placing tariffs on all American products exported to Canada. Now, reciprocal tariffs are fair. Why don't you tell your people the TRUTH

It's amazing how kernels of truth are only told when it's to a politicians benefit.

I.m so proud of you to standing on truth be blessed a lot canadian God will help us in Jesus's name.

Truth unfurled by Trudeau.

Imagine once being the country that so many allies and neighbors sought refuge in—only to become this. Damn. I wish we had a leader who could articulate himself this well or actually cared about humanity. Those of you who voted for this will soon see and feel the consequences of your actions. The truth is, Trump isn’t smart— and unfortunately, neither are most Americans.

Never been so embarrassed to be American. Thank you for calmly speaking out, using intelligent words and phrasing, stating FACTS, speaking Truth and not spewing any form of hate!!!! Canadians have every right to beam with Pride after this speech!

Now might be a good time to either upturn the system, or admit that this is no longer the country we can abide, and leave. Either way, it is evident that there is now a New World Order, lead by corporations and the lobbyists that fight for them. The kindest thing to say is that we are an Idiocracy; the truth might be that we've become the evil we pretend to fight. Good luck out there, folks.

From a Canadian citizen.\n\nExcellent speech, nice presentation with sugar coating, but the taste?\nHowever Trudeau is not telling the Truth about the Fentanyl of less than one ounce coming through the border?\nHow about Oil, Lumber and other minerals trades?\nThe USA has ten times more than what Canada have.\nWhat about border protection? Canada invested in two helicopters and many drones with thousands of land miles and the same on water to protect?\nThe cartels are much smarter than Trudeau borders policing, because they've already installed thousands of infiltrators throughout Canada to deliver any drug amount to the USA.\nAnd calling the president by his first name?\nTrudeau is taking Canada to another level, lower than we've seen or felt, because he's not a politician and not a businessman.\nFor last.\nThe notion that our lower level of politics still uses the word FIGHT instead of making a DEAL.\n\nAnd their old ways of saying, WE ARE WORKING HARD.\nINSTEAD OF WORKING SMART.\n\nMy opinions.

It’s not a dumb thing for him to do. His goal is to stay out of prison for whatever Putin has on him. If he dismantles the country completely there will be no pathway to prosecute when the truth comes out which it will. Rather than dumb it’s a dark and sick and sociopathic thing to do parallel to only a handful of the worst bad actors in history. We need to distinguish between dumb and evil. This is the distinction the WSJ missed.

I'm not for creating an international incident however Foreign and Domestic incidents TRUTHS is contrary AND AMERICANS SHOULD BELIEVE in COMMANDER IN CHIEF PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP TRUTHS over the thefts and thieves in OUR WORLD,WE THE PEOPLE MUST DEFEND TRUTHS ✋?⛑️??? ?️ prayers for WISDOM WEALTH and HEALING HEALTH THANK YOU ALL DEAR PRESIDENT TRUMP TOO CHAIN OF COMMAND

Trump's tariffs justification claiming fentanyl is like the Bush administration justification of war for weapons of mass destruction. Republican Playbook to fool the unthinking masses. If it works keep using it. We'll find the truth a decade later after a fact finding commission like the Iraq weapons of mass destruction.

Thank you for being truthful during these unprecedented times. We pray for better days ahead.

Waaawo wisdom is speaking God bless you for speaking the painful truth ??

Canada, Germany is proud of you❤ \nand I´m proud of the amazing comments from the lovely Americans, who see the truth of the face of Trump. He is the wolf in sheeps cloth

America is now hated - by our allies! We have become the bad guys of history. Nobody can trust us anymore. It's shameful. No matter what one thinks of Trudeau, he speaks well here, and he speaks the truth. Ignore the MAGA Americans and Russian trolls who will belittle him. He's right here, there's no escaping this. Every decent US citizen should be ashamed.

I'm french, And i swear I will boycott everything I may buy from USA in the next 4 years and I won't go in USA neither. Donald Trump is most shameful president I've ever seen in my life. But what is mind blowing for me is how so many people can fall for all those lies and hate maga are spreading every day. People don't want to deal with facts and reality anymore. This how a civilisation is falling. Thank you to President Trudeau for speaking the truth aloud.

Austria here. Trump himself is the biggest scam ever. He says „make America great again“ while isolating it, breaking with allies, constantly telling lies, cuddling Putin as he would be his best friend. In truth he is obviously a Russian allie.

This is how you start to fix Stupid, honest truth ? ? ❤

Russia targets civilians with artillary daily. That makes them murderers. Putin is therefore the Murderer-in-chief. Justin is correct. Truth to Power!

Thank you for speaking the truth Prime Minister Trudeau.

I wish he, and every politician spoke this clearly, succinctly and truthfully all the time\nExtremely well put. This is truly the dumbest trade war in history, and I curse whatever moron first whispered about the scourge of tariffs in Trump's ear.

Someone has the brilliance to speak truth to the US. Thank you for leading with integrity.

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for your courageous and truthful words. U.S. citizens know Canada isn't acting against U.S. citizens, but against the U.S. Federal government as well it should. Canadians are lucky to have you in your role. I wish we here in the U.S. had someone of your caliber in the White House.

They didn’t play the clip where the Prime Minister says these tariffs are about destroying the Canadian economy so Trump can annex Canada. He is speaking the truth. Trump needs to be removed!

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

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.

I thought this guy had to resign! Pretty certain the Canadians don’t care for him and his corruption, but he fits in perfectly with CNN and the content they provide. No truth here. No transparency, and certainly not going to act in the best interest of his people.

Share this everywhere! To everyone see the truth first hand before Trump start spreading his lies as usual!!!

After a couple of years Trump and co will say, that Canada started a trade war against US. Just like they say, that Ukraine and Zelenskyy started the war with Russia. And now some uf US commentators are saying the same. It’s crazy. And there will be no way to get him to remember the facts. He and all who work for him are liars and half truth tellers. I’m not sure how to deal with this. But it is VERY important for all media outlets to keep reminding the facts. Just tell what happens, so there is a record. I think that could help in the end.\nSo here are my 5p:\nUS started trade war against Canada with 25% tariffs.\nRussia annexed Crimean peninsula and attacked Ukraine in 2022. This is the truth, no two ways about these facts.\nTrump and Vance are liars.

Thank you Justin for telling the truth! So refreshing. Thank you for thinking of us and understanding what our President is doing.

This is the best speech I've heard in a long time. Truth, and only truth!

America got one big madness President at the White House. We believe he already open the Bank of America to receive 25 percent from Canada ?? , 25 percent from Mexico ?? and another 10 percent from China ??. These tariffs (taxes) are for US government work? Trump is that Federal government himself. Gurrentee the prices will go up .Trump does care about the poor but himself. This is very bad for partnership with Canada? Trau speak the truth

I fucking hate Trudeau, but I gotta admit, this was very well said. He said nothing but the Truth. Even though I'm a Castreau hater, I have a little bit more respect for our PM after this statement. Well said buddy.

An excellent speech, truthful, powerful and to the point. As for the fentynol, well, not matter what you do, and no matter how much you spend, the CIA will still find a way to sneak it into the States just like they did with the cocaine epidemic THEY started in the 80s.

we will watch the US become a land of Hoovervilles- there will be a grand Depression and this is just what the architects of 2025 want. this is King Musk at work and his minions. Not all of us support this monstrosity in the White House and their dismantling of our democracy. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau for speaking TRUTH.

Trump loves going to war with our friends and kissing up to our dictator enemies… Because in truth, the orange lunatic wants to be a dictator. It’s his goal in life.

ALL I NEED TO KNOW IS JUST ONE THING . DOES AMERICA SUBSIDIARY ACTUALLY COMES INTO CANADA LIKE AMERICA STILL EMPHASIZE?\nAM BELIEVING THERE'S SOMETHING MORE INTO ALL THESE STORIES THAN TRUMP WANTING TO TAKE OVER CANADA. \nUNTIL THE GOSPEL TRUTH IS TOLD. WE CAN CONTINUE TO DECEIVED OURSELVES

Half truths. The fent as well as illegals don't cross those borders hes talking about. The smugglers know the weak points of that 4,000 mile stretch. This is like a little league player challenging Jordan. They Need Us. We are finally taking advantage of all economic streams as we should. The Taxpayers deserve a break. Subsidize our people with the money we send abroad and grow our economy, it's our money.

So the US didn’t even tell the truth on top of this tariff. Are we surprised? Trump said these previous agreements between Mexico & Canada were unfair to US, like we were getting screwed by these countries.

Unfortunately they won't show this truth on Hillbilly News/Fox.

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

Harsh language?? Trump said a million times for almost all politicians they are crooked, dumb.... and he lied. Trudo said truth

Excellent speech. I am an Englishman and immensely proud to see our very close Commonwealth brothers and sisters standing up for what we all believe in and know is the actual truth.

Facts, truths, actual statistics that he didn’t just pull out of the air…can Mr. Trudeau come be our president? What a fantastic, bold speech!\nStanding by you, Canada!! ? ?? Thank you for standing up and saying NO!

I agree with all this courageous man has said. Wow-truth from a politician. Novel idea. The Anti-Trump. Go Justin.

I’m an American and I have to say that it is refreshing to hear truth come from a leaders mouth. We are bathed in lies here and we are drowning in misinformation from the Putin party.

It's good to hear someone speak truth and call out trumps damages, trump will drive the United States straight into the worst recession we have ever had.

As an American I am impressed by Canada ! They truly have an intelligent grown-up for a president. No name calling just clear honest truths !
