Trump is not my enemy. My enemy is nobody else other than the evil, monstrous freaks that took my homeland from me by handing it over to hordes of alien foreigners.

Trump is doing all these crazy things but he is forgetting one HUGE thing. Canada & many other countries are Allies of America & while he's talking about tariffs & goodness knows what (I did watch his talk in Congress), at least respect your Allies. Trump is sleeping with the enemy & in all my years, I've never seen an American President turn on their Allies like this. He is a dangerous man for all the wrong reasons. I feel badly for the American people whom will be stuck between a rock & a hard place. I feel for the Canadian's whom don't deserve this. Trudeau speaks so genuinely & politely where Trump yells 'this is the way things will be'. \nI don't look forward to the next 4 years & many in my country (Australia) have said they won't even go to America while Trump is in Office. We have always loved Canada. We 'gather at Whistler' then go travel. Great country. Much love from your Aussie mates ❤❤

Good job , Well done ,Canada..Trump is creating Friends into enemies and enemies into My friend Putin .. is very clever .... The people of America have been taken for a ride by Red Headed Trump.

no one wanted this battle trumpee maassive failure i heard his horrid speech dems would not clap \n As canadian.s i never thought america would become a sworn enemy. Trump is the only problem

This Tarriff thing would only work, if the US is able to be 100% self sufficient. Which is impossible. We will always need goods that dont originate in the US. And its better to have friends than enemies. This could be Trumps demise. And will have zero effect on Fentanyl.

US citizen here retired and living in SE Asia. Trump, Musk, Vance and the enabling cowardly Republicans in congress are traitors destroying the US from within for the benefit of Putin, just as Khrushchev foretold in the 1950s. Trump and his enablers are the real enemy of the US!! Canada is our best friend. Let's hope something can be done to stop this convicted felon and rapist!! Sorry we have such assholes in power in the US!!

Looking at this from FInland, I really appreciate Trudeau's strong stance on this. He's addressing Donald, but I think he's also speaking to the American people.\n\nA question came to mind - people talk about allies, but who does Trump see as an enemy? Has he been asked that? Something makes me think that in his head the actual enemy is people in his own country...

I wonder what the people of US sees in Trump? He is making enemies everywhere

It should be noted, that it took Trump less than 40 days before 27% of Canadians now consider the US to be an enemy.\nObviously Dumpy is working to destroy western alliances.\nAsk yourself who will benefit.\nWho is happy with this?\nYou literally have a Russian asset BACK in the White House.\nWTF people.

I'm English, I don't know that Canada has any enemies around the world to be honest. The US is trying to control any neighbouring land and building a wall around itself in exactly the way Russia did. Look how quickly Trump has made all these changed. He aligns himself with Dictators and attacks his friends. Trump is literally alienating the worlds allies. There is no longer a leader of the free world. Watch this space.

Who exactly is your enemy in this world? Leaders like Trudeau, Zelenskyy, Starmer, and most European leaders often sound like staunch supporters of AIPAC. Meanwhile, Trump negotiated with Russia and China to establish peace deals and broader economic opportunities that could benefit everyone. In contrast, these diabolical figures seem to be freeloading, using U.S. tax dollars to pursue their own agendas, targeting anyone who doesn’t align with them—including major superpowers. This isn’t America’s problem to solve. They refuse to admit that without the U.S., they have no leverage left to play with.

Trump wants WWIII and wants to be to put the U.S as part of the losing axis of evil with Russia and North Korea. Trump is an enemy of the United States.

Trump will face his own medicine?, more enemies coming in for USA?

Who is a friend of America? Canada. Who is an enemy of America? Russia. Who is a friend of Trump? Putin.

For trump, Canada and Europe are enemies but ruzzia is a friendly country. How can it be? How stupid some americans can be to believe in these?\ntrump is a ruzzian active agent since 2012. His now taking US as dictator.\nDon't buy any US brand or maded product, specially tesla and starlink.\nUS is enemy with trump, and will be worst. US cannot be trusted for years to come. They let ruzzian got power in their own country. They put trump in power today, and tomorrow who will be? They are only 300M people, and half are against this, lets fight this brainless people.\nI'm European, I'm with Canada.

Trump is deliberately helping the Enemy. Dropping out internet security and sabcyions against Russia? We re droppnng our gaurd ans wekeimh our alliws is a huhe threat to iur National security. We re safe. After attacing our allies, i wouldnt be surprised if Trump n Vance gets asainated. \n.

??Anyone supporting Zelenskyy/Ukraine is an enemy to Mr. Trump because Trump is doing what his god ( his Icon Mr. Putin) wants.....thats the facts but Americans will surely pay the price????

Grettings from the beautiful and great Garden State NJ??thanks Canada, this guy Trump has some good ideas but at the same time he has a bunch of bad perceptions of the world where we lived, our allies are our friends not our enemies!

Sadly the plan for Russia ?? and China ?? it’s going well , Division among America's allies , Dividing America's allies and igniting hatred between them is what America's and Europe's enemies, China, Russia and North Korea, want. This is exactly what they want to eliminate America, which is America's isolation from its allies, Canada and Europe, for the success of the plan of China, Russia and North Korea, America is in danger, gentlemen. Making its allies like Canada and Europe abandon it will push America to confront Iran, China, Russia and North Korea alone. This is a hellish plan by China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. America is finished. Trump is a businessman, not a politician. We want to unite America's allies, not divide them. Trump will lead us Americans to hell.???????????????

I'm proud to be Canadian and American is not my enemy ! God bless Canada and USA ''.....Mr. Trump dear President than the \nHoly -Spirit blowing to you a good solution about all this!??❤

Donald trump thinks that he's running a Mafia at the white house I don't know how the hell he became He wants to put money in his pocket And wants to destroy America Which he is not Which he is not making American gray But make making America weak America needs allies So allies Stand together Immunity and do not negotiate with America into Donald trump gets out of office God bless Allies allies Donald trump is the enemy in the white house

Narcissistic people like tRump need enemies, or make them, to blame.. Russia/Putin has no scruples...so he is brown nosing there..Rump needs to be sectioned.

As a Mexican, I truly respect and admire Mr. Justin Trudeau, a true leader while inmature Trump is leading the US to it's doom... lets see how this goes, Trump now has enemies all over the world, I'm so sorry for the fellow American citizens that will suffer for voting again for this hillbilly Clown and hillbilly JD Vance!

Say it correctly please, the American PEOPLE are NOT enemies of Canada….President Trump and those who voted for him are enemies of Canada. Many Canadians and Americans are being harmed by a president they did not vote for and we don’t want Canadians and Americans who are innocent to suffer. A great day of us Americans want to remain friends with Canadians and are very sad about what is going on.

I effectively spent a chunk of my childhood in America with relatives. I treasured these memories, but now all the feelings of wonder and happiness when thinking of my visits to America have faded. Now I just think of how selfish it was to sabotage Canada. American private equities want to rock our system and buy up all they can and so I am happy we are watching for this. I think Donald did this to try and buy up Canadian companies. This should be made illegal. I am willing to suffer for up to pull the plug on all resources and energy going to America “suddenly” do they have no time to adapt and collectively suffer. We even produce the ingredient you need for your nuclear weapons and otherwise need to get this from Russia. Canada has the ability to help our allies get nuclear weapons to protect against “America as our #1 enemy now”. Will we share too secret info with you when Trump clearly seems to be working with Russia? Putin dream for NATO to break down and now Trump ours that I to action . Trump wants everyone to spend money on military to fuel the American military industrial complex, something each and every huge tech company you have participated. You have essentially been taken over by a global entity that doesn’t care about democracy. We are going to manufacture our own weapons to have zero dependency on America. That makes no sense to buy weapons from the country threatening to invade you. \n\nHow will America feel to be totally alone in the global stage all under the power of one unstable man with multiple personality disorders. Trump things Putin is Americas friend and meanwhile in Russian media America spoken of as enemy number one. Meanwhile, America is 30% full of people with such little education in politics that they do not even know what is considered red flags to democracy. The 20% needed to shift will see the light once the worst man made intentional recession begins and the billionaires buy up 30% of your homes and buildings. Nothing at all will be outside of billionaire and corporate control and now all your data is in AI. how did all American value fall in just one month. Anyone not questioning this now, ai promise you is being blackmailed or is corrupt. \n\nThe bureaucracy prevents dictatorship. Now Trump is removing this. Just listen to project 2025. America is fully on track.

Watch trump weaponize this to paint Canada as an enemy of America to justify future shenanigans and Senate Republicans will continue to just eat it right up smh

You know what, I still can't believe the Americans were stupid enough to elect trump. And according to the recent poll I saw on CNN 50% of Americans like what he's doing, and only something like 34% see Russia as an enemy. So far from being an accident, trump with his stupid ideas was elected on purpose. The stupidity over there seems to be deep-rooted. I think we all need to take a step back and re-think our relationship with this adolescent nation which has always been a bit gauche but has now definitely gone rogue. Well spoken Mr Trudeau. Thank God for you and Canadians.

Less than one percent of fentanyl that enters the United States comes from Canada. Trump has absolutely no idea what’s he’s talking about he’s constantly spouts lies to trick Americans to further his own agenda, in fact he’s betraying America’s allies and getting closer with our enemies. He’s a terrible person and should be ousted from office ASAP

As a Canadian citizen I have always admired the US up until now, I sincerely wanted to move to the US to build homes and start up a company. But now am re-evaluating my decision because if this how the US treats their friends and allies, I really feel sad for their enemies. Both countries benefited from having a good relationship and now the great US has no one willing to challenge Mr Trump on this idiotic move, America is alienating themselves from a lot of countries and regular Americans are the ones who are going to suffer from this fall-out, the rich won't be affected but regular working class folks your stress is going to get a whole lot worse and that's unfortunate. Hopefully US wises up sooner rather than later and stop blaming immigration for their problems it's poor governing and politicians that have us looking at each other as enemies rather than humans with the same struggle and issues. They have money to send annually overseas but none to improve the life of their citizens in need, that should tell you something. People that don't look like you aren't your enemies, people who try to harm you, undermine you are your enemies. People are just searching for a better life that's all, the most basic thing humans have in common, change the red tape a make things more structured and rid your country of the bad apples and welcome those willing to work, build and serve God and the country. May God help us all the beginning of Sorrows has begun ?.

Trump knows what is going on. Trump is beholden to Putin because Putin has a secret on Trump and Trump is going to do everything Putin says do. He will jump, run, kiss N. Korea's ass. Trump is going to do everything Putin says do to make sure Putin keeps Trump’s secret secret. Trump must have done something over in Russia and Putin got him on video tape. It must be a doozie, something that Trump shouldn't have been doing, and Putin's got Trump by the balls. Trump is going to jump, lie, cheat, and do tariffs (as a smokescreen) for his treachery with Putin. This is why he said we won't have to ever vote again. He's planning to pull a 'Hitler-move'! Trump and Musk are weakening America. Trump, Vance and Musk are working to make all our allies our enemies to help Putin and N. Korea be able to take over America, then Trump thinks they'll let him be our King. He's so stupid. Putin and N. Korea are crazy but they will not let Trump be King. They want America for themselves. Wake up America! Trump is selling out America! He's trying to put us into WW III, and make sure we do not have any allies, and if you don't see the writing on the wall, y'all need to go back to school. Pay attention to history. Poor, dumb-ass Republicans. They're being used.

This USA government is a joke trump making enemies with allies

The Americans who voted for Trump doesn’t realize that the idiot doesn’t have their best interest and they will become poorer and struggle while he’s in power. Donald Duck will abuse his position to favour greed and ensure that his family amd already wealthy friends, constituents and enemies of the free world reign in evil ways beyond imagination.

Y’all are just Trump haters an sore losers..You will never be open minded at all..Ypur like a children..I wish you would all leave an move there and dance in women’s clothing..Better to be a friend to Russia then an enemies..

Good for Canada the republicans in congress are spineless to stand up to the felon president Trump and are allowing him to be a fascist tyrant. As an American it hurts to see how Trump treats allies and how he embraces enemies like Putin, North Korea and others. As painful as it will be I hope the free world does what the Republicans are scared to do and that is stand up to Trump and put him in his place!

What Donald Trump is doing is a gross mishandling of his country completely and totally then sideling up to dictators when will America call for this lunatics head he is literally in bed with your worst enemies for as long as America has been a country but some of you people are still cheering him on wake the f*** up

Donald will break his own arm trying to twist Justin’s arm. Canada is no Ukraine. Trump has bitten more than he can chew. Good luck Americans. Your Administrations both the current and one in the past are your worst enemies. Both the Democracy’s and the Republicans have let you down. Wake up, the world does not revolve around you.

Trump is not a friend he is an enemy to Canadians and to us in the U.S.

Trump doesn’t have the guts to stand up to our enemies so he picks fights with our friends. I’m so sorry Canada! ?? Hopefully we can get past this dark period.

All this talk about fentanyl. Come on Justin, do the funniest thing ever. Send MAID care packages to every Trump donor. Why hurt your friends in Buffalo when your enemies are so incredibly self destructive?

Under Trump Canada became our enemy and Putin became our friend.

Very good speech from a true leader ! So sad that Trump is doing this to the best allies of the USA. Obviously, Putin does really have some compromising videos and info on Trump and he is manipulating him. Today, I am ashamed to have become an US citizen. Is this what the American Dream has become ? Isolationism from our best allies and sleeping with the enemy and dictators ?

Trump, the republicans,evangelicals the complicit media and corporations are all embarrassments and active enemies of the United States and the people of all nations(except Russia) this is what happens becomes to complacent to vulture capitalism and historic levels of corruption and embraces an anti intellectual and racist stance on almost all issues.

This dude trump is bugging... He is crashing out and creating all kinds of issues and enemies...

Trump is owned by Putin and is willing to be enemies with allies for him. It’s a very selfish move.

Trump is a genius at making new enemies. Including within his own country

I really like the way that he said about he's not going to sugar coat anything and he spoke so clearly to inform Americans what is truly going on with what Trump is doing to this country and Trudeau is telling people the truth just like the leader from North Korea. When you get leaders who barely rare give speeches then you know that they are not bull sh**ing about what they are talking about, but Trump is doing that and he's going to destroy people's lives in America and he's going to destroy America. Why would he turn a country (Canada) who's been there for America into an enemy and that's because he doesn't care about the country and they don't have what he wants and all he cares about is money and power, so know he just turned a country Canada into an enemy, WTF IS HE THINKING ABOUT CLEARLY NOT PEOPLE IN AMERICA!

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.

Trump needs to get his head out of his ass and realize that we need to fight the enemy and not our allies

Trump will make America great....enemy of the world ?
