Europe has just announced an 800 billion Euro defence plan; I bet they’d be very interested in Canada’s critical minerals. Canadians will not forget this; this has damaged our relationship with the U.S. and it may never recover. We cannot forget that Americans voted this man back into power knowing who and what he is; they somehow believed that he was magically going to lower the cost of eggs, end a war and save the economy. Canadians will never trust that Americans won’t again elect someone so stupid and pathetically unfit to lead their country; we have to start cutting the trade ties now so that we will never be this vulnerable again. I do agree with Dumpty that we need to pull our weight militarily, so we need to invest in our security and we also need to align ourselves with Europe since Dumpty is clearly aligning the U.S. with Russia.

If nothing else Trudeau is a true statesman and clearly articulated fact checking very unlike the POTUS who ridicules this notion as unnecessary!

But wait but wait someone needs to teach Trudeau how tariffs work... Doesn't that silly bugger know that there are tax on his own people they're not affecting the United states

This man is no leader

Perhaps Justin’s finest moment? Right up there with his effective response to Covid.

This just sounds silly. Y'all just wanna keep on cheating us. Good grief

Turn there power off. You will get a call in less then 24 hours from the USA. And do not send our planes to put out the fires in South Carolina if they want our help they need to pay for it because our Canadian workers do not work for free

Very smart!

Okay, bud have fun building your military back up.\nThe Canadian Navy and Army are a total joke. Reliant on the Americans.

I'm doing ongoing research to cease any spend on any US product or service. I'm buying software from Europe, using Posteo for email, deGoogling this year and vastly reducing Youtube. I trace all groceries to eliminate anything US sourced and I now check that products are Mexican and Canadian as much as I'm able and they are supplying. I've stopped planning trips to LA and NYC, I might resume if American voters ever have the good sense to vote en masse against obviously fascist plans and personalities. I've holidayed in Mexico three times and would visit Canada and Europe in future. US is not safe for everyone any longer, not even its citizens and looks to be getting increasingly insecure and offering prosperity only to the already mega rich through crooked policies and agencies. Every week or two I double check the facts on groceries and online products/services to make sure I'm not accidentally buying American. The election was so compromised in November I'm glad people are realising the only action we can take is with our wallets from not logging in to 'big tech' to buying bread and apples etc.

We don't want this either!!!! We need help and don't know how to stop this.

This is not about drugs it's about taking over Canada. I'm Australian, and I stand with Canada and the Ukraine ❤

Thank God for Trudea. Hold Trump's feet to the fire. From Kentucky.

Aw man what the fuck .. \nsorry Canada on behalf of our terrible presidency

Dumb thing to do?

Gosh, how is it possible that 2 people Putin and Trump make such a mess in the world?!

Canada, please liberate US.

Bravo Trudeau!

Not a fan of Trudeau but that was a great speech, and I am proud of what he did. He's earned my respect for siure.

Im so ashamed and outraged at my country. I have NEVER supported this president and his regime. I am a senior citizen and of course i will be affected grately from his hateful greedy actions. \nMr Trudeau you are a leader!

Canada the USA didn't do this Trump did this. Sorry! The only thing we can do is well illegal. Trump is a total moron. 4 years can't go fast enough...

Vorrei che il Canada fosse in Europa....

I’m an American and I’m embarrassed and appalled at Trump and our government. I’m so sorry. I’m scared. I’m overwhelmed. I’m afraid of what this is going to do to all of us, but I support you Canada.

Great response Canada. Much love from the Netherlands & Europe. Lets boycot American together and forever.

Trump is the Manchurian candidate. It’s funny that people continue to try and find reason in his actions.

Trudeau shows strength and empathy, not like the bully south of the border who spreads lies and hatred. Trudeau is constructive, Trump is destructive!

American here, an actual conservative who never voted for Trump. Canada should immediately turn off the oil to stick it to Trump, and people everywhere should boycott Tesla permanently. The Canadian oil would do best going to Europe to help shut off imports from Russia.\n\nTrump is a traitor who acts like a Russian agent.

Governor Trudeau ??

I wish I was Canadian!

Trudeau is right!

I love this speech so much. I am so proud to be Canadian.

So proud of OUR PM, this is going to hurt us and Americans, but we have to protect our land and people. We still love our American brothers but not your government. ??

I think I can say that all Americans who aren’t racist republicans stand with Canada and Mexico.

If you live in the US it's time to move. If you're in Canada or Europe you need to boycott the holy living hell out if US imports, US compaines, and any company that does business in the US. Starve the US of money and plummet the economy. The only effective nonviolent resistance that works is to prevent the coporations from making a profit. \n\nAt least JT had the sense to separate the Smerican people from its current leadership. That's rare in history. \n\nI SUPPORT CANADA AND UKRAINE. FUCK TRUMP.

Yea but under biden you let fent flow now your paying for the lives you cost

I do believe that doing this to Canada is gonna hurt us badly...

He called him his NAME!!

You watch Mr. Trudo! Your are only the 54 state. Respect your President Donald Trump!! America???? is GREAT AGAIN.

Trump is whacking friends and helping adversaries. Couldn't have put it better myself. It's idiocy. Putin is having the best time of his life and regime right now.

Join Canada leave that crap behind

I wonder how long it takes until civilians in the US rise up.

Terrible left wing media. Typical stupidity

What can be done judicially to stop the insanity?

It's a matter of time, Canada is going to be 51st state.

US citizen here. I stand with all of our allies. I hope than Canada gives us a kick in the backside we sorely need. We are led by a buffoon who thinks that the “Mar-A-Lago Accord” is the way forward. That plan would be wayyyy too damaging to the world’s economies. But..when has tRump listened to anything but the voices in his head?

I thought he resigned?

In the long run America will be 10 times stronger in every aspect as long as we don’t complain about the short term cost. Yes poor and rich alike. Have faith in trump he is a great man for America. Let’s stick it out till America makes everything we Americans need to prosper??

Didn't he resign?

Canada thank you for taking these actions. Despite our (disgusting) administration most Americans are with you. Keep up the good work.

I’m an American and proudly stand with the Canadian people ??Keep Resisting!
