“80% good 20% bad” reminds me of 50/50 😂😂

Honestly the batshit crazy comment reflects the #1 concern most Canadians have with the United States. We have conservatives and religious types but they're all more or less respectful and they don't try to control Canadian society. In comparison, at least a fifth of Americans are borderline fascists, and none of us want anything to do with those types of people. Since Trump took office they've become a hundred times worse, as now they're even threatening annexation. Sorry if it's hard to accept, but America has a serious problem right now, even if you're a good person.

Good move Canada!!

Donald only understand the strength language. Justin- good job!

We love President Trump! You are an anti-Christian, anti-democratic weenie tyrant. The Canadians would do good to get rid of you.

Yup, that's our Idiot-in-Chief, alienate and backstab our allies and friends because it makes for good TV. ?

Lol, what a dummy. Doesn't her know that that doesn't work that way? Sure go ahead and go for it, america accounts for almost 80% of Canada's total goods and service exports ? what makes this even more worse for Canada's prime minister is the fact that they recieve just over 60% of imports from guess who.... the United States. Where as america has the ability to stop all trade to canada all together, be just fine with the reserves we have. While increasing trade import and export with another country we already do business with, making them very happy in the process and still making huge savings in the process. When 80% and 60% of your exports and imports respectively. Consists of literally sharing its only common border with the united states would mean a complete scrap of the total infrastructure since they would hace then compensate through sea and air through the arctic and distances of 10x of what they are used to. Then it starts to make sense as to why trump wants Greenland. Look this it just a bluff by the Canadian prime minister that supposedly resigned not long ago but his tyrant ass don't really wanna leave. Plus, you really think dude can make up for all that loss and go find it through another contry? Hahaha? yeah okay good luck with that. Canada shoukd ne disappointed in the man even more. He's not for you, he's for himself and the best for him and the other lobbyists. ???

What an idiot haha. U deserve the tariffs for your evils. Good luck ??

Dr Mr Trump, Americans want a good relationship with Canada. Not Russia. Please think about what your doing. Every move of yours doesnt need to be radically bold and outlandish.

Well just dons voting base exceeds the population on Canada. Canada will be hurt more than US. Because we have more consumers to buy Canada goods

Trade wars benefit no one. Come on guys, work together, and we’ll all get cheaper, better quality goods

Trump has zero statesmanship and he lacks global understanding of history, culture, moral, ethic, civilization, good manners and so on.

Canada ?? come on - buy European goods. Much more high quality standard and better food, buy our food and cooperate with us without taxes ?? ? ??

good for Trudeau

Put tariffs on goods Canada sends to RED states. If the Republican voters start to feel the pinch they miiiight grow a braun cell and realize Trump has never been a friend to the US

Good man from Scotland ??????? ✊?????

Great speech by Justin Trudeau. Good coverage, thank you.

Amazing speech, good job Justin.

Good morning ma, I am a very big fans of yours and as you keep enlightening us about the japa system may the Lord bless you too and ma I want to know if I can be grant a study visa with my father’s surname been (AKINPELU) while on my Waec was ( AKINPELUMI) the mistake was the (MI) so what name should I put on my passport ma. Also how do I get the japa system book

The people of Hawaii, I think, would love if Hawaii were a province of Canada. Why? Because Canada has the same values as Hawaii's people. Canada is full of people of good quality--people who believe in freedom, opportunity, good neighbors, and a peaceful life in a beautiful environment. Think about it Canada . . . send us a proposal.

I feel his sinceriy for the people, not just for Canadians. Im from Philippines but I hope things will turn for good for both neighboring country.

Not a very good speech. Over 90% of drug traffic reduction in 1 month, which really proves what Trump said. US official knows that significant reduction, yet, they still impose the tariff. Why will you still spend so much money to help America if they do not appreciate? Grow a pair!!!

Canada is fuked!! Good luck, and leave Canada now!!

the DUMB GUY always makes a mess and still feels good of himself, worse are his followers. His house is burning just that he doesn't know it or worst he doesnt care.

From SOUTH AFRIKA - Good Job President Trudeau. Trump has gone bananas, literally. In South Afrika Trump and Afriforum (racist Boere aka white racist organisation that misses and pushes Apartheid agenda) are causing havoc by spreading propoganda of lies about non- existing land grabs and white genocide. These lies are being peddled and given life by that Mars Alien - Elon Musk because we refused his SPYlink Satellite without an empowerment stake (Black Economic Empowerment - which is regulated due to past imbalances). He got mad mad and started working racist right wing organisation that misses segregation

Mr Trump says the Tariff is good for America economy. He spoke about that in Congress. Of course it will have a boomerang effect but certainly he and his administration have discussed about it and decided the best for America.

Omg ,,Canada is great country in the world with too much natural resources.im sure Canada is an independent country.need some good and professional leaders

I am from the UK, America what is trump doing to your country? This is not looking good.

The fentanyl BS from Trump is so insulting. The US wastes insane amount of time and money catching and jailing LSD, weed, and shrooms users and acts like Canada's dedicated focus on dangerous hard drugs isn't good enough. He should mind his stupid war on harmless drugs instead of attacking people tackling the truly dangerous ones

Trudeau is sooooo good, what a wonderful speech

GOOD SPEECH, BURY THOSE CLOWNS\n\nDONT BUY TESLA - THE ELECTRIC KETTLE - THEY SUCK AS CARS ANYWAY\n\nIF YOU'RE EUROPEAN, BUY WHAT'S FROM EUROPE

good decision for canada

I'm ashamed to say that our president is an absolute traitor to our allies and to its people. Somehow his cult followers were able to get him back into office instead of prison. Now all of us are having to suffer please do not lose faith we will figure out a way to get rid of the Trump regime once and for all as well as Elon Musk were so sorry about what they've done there will be payback for them for many levels just know that the United States people love Canada always have always will one of our greatest allies and our good neighbor. Sorry about Donald Trump he's a prick

For all the people across the world stating their support for Canada: join us in boycotting all American goods! Better to take the extra time and pay the extra dollar now than to wait for your country to be next!

In terms MAGA folks can understand:\nCanadians good! ?\nAmericans bad! ?

Well spoken Mr Trudeau. Good to see a world leader stand up to Trump. Its about time. Canadians should be sorry to see Trudeau go at a time when you need a good leader.

Good going Canada❤❤

Good luck Canada. Enjoy your welfare benefits.

trudeau suggesting his meeting with the king is out of context with modern reality\na shared interest in historical ties with england\nwe all know england has a very dark past of savagery and inhumanity and of course religious intolerance\ninhumanity on an unbelievable scale\ntrump would be honered to have participated in englands past\ntrudeau should chose his words more carefully\nits not possible to make a case for humanity whilst including a very dark relationship with jolly old england whom by the way is stuck in its gory past\nthese tariffs will not effect those who are imposing them mostly they will affect those already struggling\nso again trudeau is not really making a good case for humanity\nin fact it looks more like a willful and willing game of tit for tat with trump\nwhile the only injured will be the poor\nit looks more like trudeau is in partnership with trump and putin aligned against the poor\nhow can any one call this good diplomatic strategy while the politicians stay high and dry\nwhile the poor are left damp in spirit\ntrudeau is no political genuis unless his real pact is with trump albeit still no genuis simply a coconspirator against the turf by the aristocracy which of course england by all means claims for itself with its castle slash dungeonary past\nthe cries of many still ring out across the green rolling hills of england even after a thousand years\ntyrants they are\nengland shall never escape its past

Good lets wrap Canada in the bag and feel the precedence of tariff.

Who are actually benefiting from this? US consumers are gonna pay more for goods, the exporters seem worried about it. Only Trump seems excited about it and the rich people probably don't care.

Trudeau is good for a actor.. Bravo..

Some persons were just talking about their sentiments on their personal point of view but looking at US point of view, know that the US trade deficit (Deficit exists where US import from another nation to US exceeds US export to that nation from US) with Canada exceeded 58 billion dollars in 2024; with Mexico is more than 170 billion dollars in 2024; and with China is more than 295 billions dollars in 2024. In the Philippines, Philippine entrepreneurs and the like who are exporting their products had been enjoying tax incentives (It does mean when exports live the country versus imports being received by the country then) as Philippine export earning is the one making the Philippine economy richer with money gained while import is making the money to go out of the country (going out as cost or expense) then while being revenue of another country (so that the profit of a country which is revenue less the expense is obviously what is the truth about any argument about tariff (which in a way is discriminating the deficit in becoming wider and wider to the pleasure of those who loved imported goods then).

I agree. Our government is a big letdown in many ways! I wish I could have pride in my country again. I think you are a good leader.

another stupid game by USA, just as they did against russia, and failed in Ukraine...the USA is trying to smoke everyone out in Canada and Mexico, and make it one big country, with maybe Greenland scoop up later..Russia doesnt wont more land, just no missiles on its border, like USA didnt want them in Cuba...This world could really be something if we didnt have these old dudes from a bygone era, still wanting to be number one in the world, when we all live on the same planet...They are still scared of Reds under the bed..they have sycceeded in getting rid of Trudeau, he will be gone, just when he is coming to life...The USA is like a rabid dog now, they foam at the mouth thinking they are the leader of the west world, what a joke..they are all liars and cheats, and dont even tell their own public the truth..if only we all settled down and acted like good neighbours, how good the world could be

As Donald made alot of American is b******s, Canada won't fall for it. I rather live a bit less richer, than become this dictator b****h. Good Luck USA! YOU VOTED FOR THIS MAN, BUT WE DIDNT!

Just like with 9/11, the U.S. never wastes an opportunity to squander the good will of the rest of the world. Prime Minister Trudeau, you need not justify all your wonderful country has done and is doing to stop the fentanyl issue...nothing will satisfy the MAGA crazies who refuse to take responsibility for anything, including their enforced poverty and disillusionment that leads to addiction.

Sad that Justin Trudeau has become a good Prime Minister now that he is leaving.

DUMB TRUMP I HOPE YOU ARE LISTENING BECAUSE YOU WILL BE IN THIS BY YOURSELF AND YOUR RACIST KLAN CONGRESS AND HOUSE REPUBLICIANS THAT SUCK UP TO YOU!!! NO GOOD DEED GOES UNDONE, AND LIKE ZELINSKY SAID, YOU WILL FEEL IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, this is the first time I've seen Trudeau say sound and good things. When he actually works on sensible action instead of hyper liberal silliness, that's great. He comes across really well here.
