Putin's dream: Destabilize the close relationship of the US. border countries. What better first step to weaken their enemy? Putin is so much smarter than DJT. BTW, he called him Donald as speaking to an equal. Treudeau and Trump are equals.

Donald Trump Elon Musk And JD Vance Are Putting Our Country In Big Danger They Don’t Care About Us It’s All About Money And It’s So Sad ? I Commend Canada For Standing Up For They Country Lord Knows We Need Someone Like You And PM Zelensky!?

Figured you'd be on CNN we don't need anything from Canada you need us thank you Donald Trump now maybe our country will start making everything we need like it used to be

Please know not all of us voted for Trump and we do not stand behind what he's done. He is a jerk.

Let us join EU, China and Russia, instead of USA. Who care Trump ?

All of these other countries should have no problem looking for and finding other trade partners. The US on the other hand will have a more difficult time and may not be successful given recent history. Trump has set the bridges on fire and is laughing (or golfing) as they burn.

I’m a Us citizen and I don’t approved Trump actions.

These clowns are all working together to bring down the people. Don’t be so naive! The world’s a stage and behind the scenes Trudeau & Trump are having dinner in their mansions and laughing at us all.

Simple, to the point, factual, and brilliant speech. What the US is doing is starting a fight with the best neighbor you can possibly have, a neighbor who has always supported you. Trump is like Cesar setting fire in Rome.

what has your problems got to do with Russia.......? you should focus on Canada and your work with the US. Remember Trump is on the scene to help USA - not you.

Don't be fooled by this wimp my American friends. Trudeau is a weasel and has killed Canada. I'm not a fan of Trump but he still has seen thru this bum and we deserve what we're getting because of his neglect and Woke policies for the last 10 years. he's as corrupt as a politician can get. So please wait til we get a leader in Canada that will get us back to a REAL partner with the US. An election is gonna happen real soon that will put a Prime Minister in place that will address the concerns of both of our countries and get things back to normal.....and it won't be Mark Carney!!!!!

All these comments….”Oh we stand with you Canada”. We don’t want you stand with us, fix your fucking problem America and stand up to your supposed representative Trump.\nHe is going to screw you too, wait and see.\nWhat has he done for America so far?\nO yeah, rename the Gulf of Mexico, that’s changed peoples lives for the better.\nWhat a joke.

Turdeau is nothing more than a communist POS and needs to be removed and charged with TREASON and many more crimes. As for Tariffs, why doesn't this low life bring to light the 270% Tariffs on Milk to the US, 298% on butter, 245% on cheese, 238% on chicken,57% on barley seed, 45% on Aluminum, 48% on copper, 45% on cars, and the list goes on, all Trump wanted was the border cleaned up of criminals and drugs and this POS is turning it into a trade war. He has no money for additional border security, but he can send billions to Zelensky, another criminal pile of garbage. When the hell are Canadians going to wake up to the criminals in power ???????????????

Just remember world not all of us voted for Trump. Just the ignorant uneducated low lives that can’t critically think. They can be found in the armpit of the US also known as the South or the same states that lost the civil war which ended slavery. Most of you probably never heard it because no one wants to visit that part of the US.

Yall so fkn dumb af yall dont even know the benefits behind the tariffs for us Americans. Imagine someone helping your economy and not knowing about it while you criticizing the person helping you. Thats so fkn dumb. Poor Trump i feel bad for him as they're too many ignorant people out there. Think about it how in the f does tariffs benefit Trump in any kind of way. In nothing its just for the Country thats all

Trump's mission: To separate all US allies from one another! To better serve the main evil, namely Russia!!

As an American, thank you. Trump needs a taste of his own medicine The people don't want this and he does not represent us. Hopefully this will unite the few who have yet to see how damaging trump is to our country so we can be rid of him.

We believe Canadian leaders like Mr. Trudeau. As Americans,we have been abused for years by Trump,who is his own kind of terrorist, using deceit,treachery and cruelty. Millions of us are resisting,protesting and praying to restore a place among our allies in other countries and in the United States.

My heart hurts watching this. As an American, I respect and agree with Prime Minister Trudeau. Canada has been a kind and generous ally, and our current government leaders are just coming up with excuses for this stupid ass trade war. \n\nI am so sorry to all the Canadian citizens whom this negatively impacts. I hope you will show grace to those of us who voted against Trump and who continue to stand up to this tyrant.

Hmmmm.... If this isn't going to hurt Canada at all and only hurt the US (ie helping Canada) then why is Trudeau so upset? I think I'm gonna let this one ride out and see how things play out. Trump is a brilliant businessman as is Musk and they understand economics like no other. I am thinking there is more to this than what Trudea is saying.

No, not the US- just Trump and trump's cult- REMEMBER THAT!!!!

America......no offense, but I can't wait to complete bridging trade relationships with the EU, Japan, and China. All of these in recent months started discussions on major trade deals, which could eclipse the trade we do with the US.\n\nI'm sick of this sht from a country rotting from the basement up. \n\nBTW I hear Nebraska going bankrupt because their workforce is made up of 70% of undocumented immigrants....Nebraska is a total trump state...lolrtf.\n\nCanada may hit hard times, but Americans DO NOT KNOW or truly understand us.\nOur connection is deeply rooted in decency and has for hundreds of years. \n\nHow will the world ever trust the US with integrity or honor when it breaches its own agreements.\n\nI believe the US will likely be damaged beyond repair from this antichrist.

YES WHACKING FRIENDS PUTIN IS GONNA SMASH US BECAUSE DONALD TRUMP IS A DUMB A$$ PERIOD

I would like for trump to impose tariffs on everyone else in the world except for The US Canada and Mexico

I don't care what side of the fence you sit on. I did not need to hear this man speak to already know Canada was, but may yet be, our greatest ally and trading partner. I have no idea what possessed Mr. Trump to decide to stab our allies in the back, but it was not something good. 27.5% of voting age adults voted for him. How many of them were serenaded by hollow promises and a good slogan. Perhaps all of the mud slinging and Russian media interference helped? If you add in our more studious teenagers, truly reformed felons, and immigrants who actually deserve a gold card, that number plummets to less than 25%. I won't ask people to wake up, if you are reading this you are already more than capable of finding out that I speak only the hard truth. This means less than a quarter of america wanted this. This means your vote and opinions DO count. I know it is incredibly difficult to reach for and find answers in a world where your president or primary candidate throws 'fake news' in your face on a regular basis. He is actually telling the truth. When he is not telling you is that he is a primary enabler of 'fake news'. To him, only his word is law, only his opinion matters, only he deserves to be on top, and he deserves authority over all of your lives. Do the right thing, we all have a civil duty to understand our candidates to the very best of our ability. When a man has been convicted of dozens of felonies, and we tell you that this is only what we were willing to expose. You may want start believing us. The genuine facts of his past are unilaterally corrupting to our children and good people alike. Do not let the american people repeat their mistakes, force Mr. Trump to atone for his mistakes. No not empower him to sweep them under the rug for the sake of his own arrogance, because that is exactly what he is doing by trying to dismantle the CIA and FBI. These two institutions are shining examples of America's pursuit of freedom and justice. Freedom to keep billionaires from corrupting the morals of our children. Freedom to know that the rule of law is immutable, our constitution is not just a paper with fancy traditional sentiment. Even if the law may sometimes be bent for the sake of decency, forgiveness, and the pursuit of 'united we stand', our constitution cannot. Amendments require the FULL support of nearly all Americans, not 27.5% of unrestricted adults.

Trump is not a smart man no he is not hes is nothing more then a crook and what a crook he is is that why you you like a liaer a traitor a spy for the KGB impeach Trump now.God Bless us all.

I live in US but I support Canadian on this. Even Trump is looking for changes, it shouldn't have been done in this rude and abrupt way.

No, (PRESIDENT) TRUMP, THATS RIGHT (PRESIDENT) TRUMP is making a statement that the US will no longer be second..\nAmerica 1st.. open your eyes, he’s defending our country making it great for all of us…

So Canada stands with Child traffickers, rapists, murders and drug runners got it. And look at all the communist Americans that take that side. Thank God Trump Won ! Kick all Canadian businesses out of US. Stop all Aid and military funding shut Canada down. Deport all illegals to Canada.

Trump wont back down, canada has been screwing us for awhile, its our turn. However i do feel for the canadian people.

No bringing up of characters and groups like the Radical Left, Us and Them, Shifty Schiff, Crooked Hillary and no off topics and complaints about water pressure, toilettes and wind-mills. No self praising, no hating, no over the top BS promises! Donald Trump is just so stupid, and doesn't know what he is doing. If Donald Trump says that he knows what he is doing, then he needs to be impeached, because he's not doing anything good for America.

There is no economic war! A war is a war. The tarrifs is a fuse for an escalation, and this is likely what Trump plans. I wouldn't be surprised that the former suggested a partnership to Putin to militarely attack Canada, and the world, by the way. Lets think about this. One day, people from US may wake up with all your money in cripto money not belonging to US anymore. No need to be a psychic or prophet to see this coming.

Trump wants to destoy relation to ALL US ally..need THE ROCK 2.0 and G.I JOE 2.0..just saying

Trump doesn't care that he's starting a trade war w other countries bcus it's not about money its about power. They want to tear down the US and the ppl by making the ppl poor and destitute so they can swoop in w all the money & control everything. They want to rebuild a new government that's a dictatorship.

True!! Prime minister, it's not us it's not you it is Trump

As an American I pray that Canada/PM Trudeau knows that there is a massive % of us who understand that Canada has to stand on business & we hold no ill will for him protecting his country. PM Trudeau there is a massive % of Americans who despise trump & pray for his downfall (& those who follow him!) We as SANE AMERICANS know that this IDIOT who is president has begun/will continue to destroy our country(until he is stopped!) WE hold no grudges against countries who must fight back to protect themselves….WE envy you PM Trudeau & likewise countries who fight back because we are CLEARLY AWARE WE’VE BEEN CURSED WITH A MENTALLY ILL PRESIDENT WHO WON’T FIGHT FOR ALL PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY!

Okay, so US tariffs are bad and will cause financial trouble for both Americans and Canadians. Won’t Canadian Tariffs do the same thing? Furthermore, Canada will not win a Tariff war with the US. Canada’s response is not rational, nor is it in the best interest of the country. What about working with Trump to understand what it takes to remove all tariffs.

How come Canada didn't do something about the illegals coming through their border and the fetanal problem until Trump was elected? During Biden Canada wasn't really concerned. BTW how about the US stop exporting aircraft parts to Canada

That was a real man and loving ❤️ leader l can respect ??. Inversely, that in the US, trump, is a dump, literally garbage ?.

Thanks so much for your advice Teacher Mr. Trudeau. When we Americans need some more lecturing about what you think is best for us, we'll be sure to ask. Obviously, you know what is expected of you regarding the border but haven't done it to the satisfaction of USA leadership. In the interim, do your best imitation of a liberal and cry us a river. And Justin, just so you now, our president's name is President Trump for you, not 'Donald'.

We don't want our government either. Pls Canada make us a providence. Pls know most of us do not like this. King George Trump is not our voice.

trump is just a COMPLETE idiot .... we want CANADA as an ALLY !!! they love us & all you MAGA supporters DID THIS ! ?‍?

Help us find the way to get rid of trump please

Impeach Trump and all our troubles go away.Trump is a Russian “plant”. I believe it started during Putins first visit to the USA 20/30 years ago!\n\nI watched Trump the first time Putin visited the US and was on tv -Trump was in aw of Putin ( a murdering Thug). I truly believe Trump is a plant for Putin. He should be impeached immediately! Trump is fan of Putin a murdering thug. Trump is must go!

I could not love this more!!! American, here. Sock it to us!! It's going to take Canada, Mexico, and Europe to force Trump to back down and stop being a b@by @$$ little b!tch!

I wish they dude is the president of US. So embarrassed to here trump speak compared with him.

I wish they would stop saying “they” it’s trump and trump and Elon only not ALL OF US! I promise you i did not vote for this crappy man

dont blame Trump, he's under pressure from his boss putin to fight against US allies.

Why do people think that Donald Trump and Elon Musk are smart. They aren't smart. They hire smart, desperate people. They just have the money. They're stupid themselves. Trump was a bully all his life and his daddy paid his way through school and Elon grew up a little weasel, nerd getting pushed around by everybody, and now he's going to take it out on all of us.

Don't lecture us American' s on a damn thing! U are damn clown & don't speak with such an unworthy sense of self. Anyone who would listen this ignorant fool & worse take anything he says seriously are as stupid as he is. And all u buffoons spewing remedial like this idiot is even pimple on trumps ass! What a embarrassing weak coward! And watch ur damn tome boy when u speak of our president like u are somehow all sudden some tough guy or in his league! Smfh
