Justin Tredeau is such a gentleman. So intelligent. I'm sorry this is happening. I voted for Harris and am brokenhearted still. Trump isn't intelligent ?. I can tell you the vast majority of Americans cannot stand this poor excuse for a human being. I would leave the states but I am not well enough sadly. We want to get Trump and his synchophants out of the Whitehouse. Pray with us and for us that we can do this. Much love to Canada ?? ❤️.

Great speech. Try to remember, the President does not appear to play well with others. His ridiculous tariffs and annexation fantasies are absurd. I think the American people will push back against these policies.

Well Played Premier JT! Your delivery was ?. I love how you purposefully quoted the Wall Street journal too. You made it very clear that you, JT are not the one who is saying “Donald is smart”, while using his first name like he disrespectfully uses yours. Stroke his pathetic ego! \n?\nHow will you stand up for us though? Universal basic income for all!

Now that is a true leader, well spoken and intelligent. Keep up the fight and stay strong Canada!! Elbows up!!!

What is wrong with you people [maga]. You really think this will end well and then just be all hunky Dory? You need to wake tf up and realize this is going to destroy us. There will be nothing left to make great. The amount of bankruptcies and people starving is gonna go through the roof. But you think it’s just gonna be a tuff couple months. Wake up!!!!!!!!!

Well said PM Trudeau. Scrap those border plan billions and the Fentanyl Czar. If the Amer-I-can border is such a worry for this embarrassment of a USA administration (worst in history and that is saying a lot), then let them invest in border controls to keep out the overwhelming flow from our beautiful country of fentanyl and illegal immigrants that DOESN’T exist. This is hateful and Trump and those who voted for him should be ashamed. Shame on you. We will not visit your country, we will not buy your products…you are no neighbours of ours (yes, we spell neighbours with “our”…)

Much respect for President Trudeau. So eloquent and well-spoken.

Well done canada!

I am proud to be Canadian and my heart is filled, that my whole country is feeling so united right now, regardless of some our political preferences. Thank you all for all your kind words and support, and I hope that our friendship and alliance with you all will strengthen as well and will last indefinitely. I SO look forward to it! Thank you Europe, UK, AUS/NZ, Mexico... and Ukraine WE STAND WITH YOU ❤???????????✌️

Well said Mr. Trudeau! We Canadians absolutely support your statements. I certainly hope, that if the US remove the said tariffs, that we will keep our export tariffs on the selected products for 4 years. Let the next ad ministration get the win of us removing the tariffs. Yes we will go through a rough time, but we will get through it. Enough with the threats from Trump.

Well said Prime Minister Trudeau ??

Trump truly is an idiot I am shocked that our political system is crumbling right before our eyes becouse of one man and that is wanna be Dictator Trump who needs to be Impeached ASAP and his cronies starting with the disgusting and Discrase of a Vise President JD Vance who should resign immediately fellow Americans we need to wake up and Fast yes I had voted for Trump thinking he was gonna make America ?? great yeah well he duped us all he is slowly Destroying America he has his own agenda which obviously is not Good. God bless our Country and Slava Ukraine ?

Can't Americans realise what an intelligent and well spoken speech looks like, what it should always look like from our leaders?\n\nTrump can't even read a letter from King Charles; he's completely incompetent and unintelligible. They knew this before they elected him. Every speech he ever gave was embarrassingly awful.\n\nAnd now, less than 50 days into his presidency he has sided with Putin, betrayed Zelenski, and attacked all his partners around the world.

Well spoken and 100% correct with every word. ??????????????????

I didn't vote for that man. Female or male..the US needs an intelligent, well spoken POTUS like Trudeau. All that tough guy act doesn't fly especially when you disrespect the Ukrainian president over what he's wearing, forgetting the reason behind that. Good luck to all on another 4yrs of nonsense

Well done sir standing up for your country ❤

The media sides with anybody who criticises Trump, the president knows what hes doing, look at what the chinese did to our granite construction products, dump cheap crap to put our ppl out of business, Canada does this as well, you have to explore things between the lines, why is Trudeau spreading fear if this wasnt going to benefit our country?

Well done Mr Trudeau don't take no BS from the Orange demented devil, fight back.??

Thanks to Trudeau ?? for handling American counterparts well! Trump doesn’t know how to run his country and hurting other countries!

I don’t think this is anti-Americanism. This is fighting on your side of a trade war. I believe Canadians, including Trudeau, are otherwise working very well together with Americans.

i liked trudeau a lot in this speech, after months and months of disliking hearing his voice this was very refreshing.. Well done Justin!

This is how a LEADER speaks. No insults, no lies, no threats or name-calling. He is defending his country. Like America should be doing. Well done Mr. Prime Minister.

Absolutely LOVE this guy! A great leader who is very intelligent and speaks so well that even a Trump MAGGOT IDIOT can even understand! \n\nSomeone like this is very much needed to tell them just what their chosen cult leader is bringing them, lol. GOOOOO Canada! ????????

Well said sir ???

From the uk…. Well said Trudeau. Big love to Canada. Hope Donald understands your long words.

Political suicide having your wife wear a communist great coat from wwii... The substance and gist of what he said is atrocious as well..

I am from Philippines. I agree with you . Very well said Mr. Prime minister Trudeau

Canada please open up your migration to skilled workers and presidency and well be there..

Dear CNN, \n The last time Trump went to Ruzzia to 'Negotiate' anything, he curiously left behind his Translation Team, his National Security Team, AND his Intelligence Team and walked into a room with Putin, (who had ALL those things with him). This resulted in D.J. getting pumped for info for around three hours. This 'Info' Putin has managed to use to great effect, as he entered into the Ukraine War, and now Donald wants to 'Negotiate' with Putin AGAIN on behalf of Ukraine?!? Trump doesn't even use the CIA for his geopolitical briefings, he actually uses 'Private Services' for his info, (at Taxpayer Expense) largely I'm sure, because anyone who is close to being Competent at what they do would 'KNOW' things, and would be correcting Trump, constantly, which he hates with a passion. On top of this there's Tulsi Gabbard who the Ruzzians themselves have publicly stated IS an Agent of theirs for the last Decade. It's for these reasons and more that I say D.J. is a Traitor to this Country for the love of money. \n How much more of an illustration does one require for a 'Worst Case' scenario?!? A 'Rogue Actor' taking control of the U.S. Government with full access to it's Nuclear Codes. It truly makes more sense to go Radio Silent with America, (for the time being at least) and co-ordinate with Mr.Zelenskyy as to how you will proceed. I would seriously be 'dragging my heels' on that Royal Invitation as well, as D.J. will completely misinterpret that to mean something entirely else! We in the U.S. are undergoing a COUP, plain and simple. No need to Soft Sell it going forward as Trump and Vance have knowingly delivered us to Ruzzia without so much as a single shot being fired. Thanks for the Post.

Bravo. Well said. I am ashamed of our government and the Americans who inflicted dt and his regime on all Americans by voting him in once again. Shameful Dangerous and we and our allies will all suffer for it.

Well speech

You cant argue with a well thought out, sensible, and honest message. Bravo Canada! I speak for the vast Majority of Americans when I say that we value your friendship and look forward to a healthy and prosperous relationship moving forward.

I'm a dutchman. Very well spoken premier Trudeau.

Trump is a traidor, and dont care about people he just cares about his egocéntric narcisistic persona. Well said trump and his mafia are wrong!!

Just a FYI Canadians hate turdo, and this traitor is imposing a 20% carbon tax on Canadians April 1, keep that in mind as well, so he's no better than trump, he froze Canadian bank accounts who opposed him, decarled a peaseful protest a national emergency, sent war horses to trample canadians, he's a p.o.s, so dont give him any credit.

From Germay as well: We need those kind of brave and clearminded politicians here as well who stand up and speak as strong as Trudeau did.

Trump is totally out to DESTROY AMERICA. Trump is Satan walking on Earth (With his dirty diaper, and insane mind as well). Deny Satan any more evil!

Well u should have helped our country like trump asked you to do!!!! He warned you and you didn’t lift a finger so us taxpayers can give you the finger!! ?. ? u think Trump was playing games???!!! Why was your border still opened allowing illegals in our country??!!! They were flying in thru plane and just walk thru Canada & u did nothing about it!!!????

Prime Minister Trudeau, Americans support you. We will suffer, but not in silence. Our voices will be our platform for dealing with this poser who pretends to be a leader of our country. Well said. Thank you sir.

Must be nice to have such an eloquent, well-spoken, educated leader! ?

Yeah yeah yeah...well see

Well spoken and clear!!! Our government is putting America to shame. Shame on our president

It's such a whiplash to see a well educated, thoughtful leader like Justin Trudeau speak ... then Trump who is a blubbering baby who can't string a fully coherent sentence together to save his life.

Well said ?

Trump just made Trudeau just made Canada look like an ANGEL and the U.S. like DEVILS!! Well done!!!????

You Canadians should be proud of this man. Very well spoken. The Dutch stand with you against the USA ✊️

Who wrote this speech? Well done

Well done Canada ?? a measured response. I think you have the support of most Americans to switch off the lights.

well dumb donny doing it again a guy that's no idea about business and politics making america the great asshole again and the republicans following him because they are owned by putin and comrade elon maga complained about all sorts of things are now finding out that what they complained about is themselves
