This is the most sensible conservation I've heard Jason Kenny be a part of in some time. Good job sir.

As somebody born and raised in Canada I’ve always said it was kinda of ironic that a country that was founded by colonizing Indians is getting re-colonized by different Indians

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.

Too bad nobody respects him otherwise it would’ve meant something. He’s always been all talk and no action, hence why he’s resigned and nobody even cares. Maybe in his first year he did anything at all for Canada but since then he’s just stolen Canadian money for himself.

I've not ever heard trump say the words, let's work together!

I’m American I AGREE WITH THE CANADIAN PRESIDENT!!!! We know what he is doing and not EVERYONE voted for HIM! The American ppl are aware that we will suffer, we’ve been suffering! Many of us are casualties of an unnecessary war!

I've got leader envy.

That was a great speech from Prime Minister Trudeau. One of his best I must say . . . we've got to stick together and fight back this idiocy from Trump, and if we can do that we will win and he'll back off from these ridiculous and needless tariffs.

Hey Donnie,we will never be a US state,if you want a new state try epstein island ,we know you've been there

Donald Trump is doing a great job at destroying the U.S. all this time various terrorist groups tried to attack America and failed... when all they had to do was recruit Trump and the deed would've been done without mass casualties ??‍♂️\n\nwhat a sad, sad day for Americans...

They’ve voted for this moron so they deserve everything that comes to them

I've always loved Canada -an American

One of the beast speehe I've ever heard. Stand up against tyranny

You've got balls

Ya'll should've voted for kamala but you all wanted this in a landslide

TRUMP The Master Deal Maker...just played his ACE..Watch the dominos fall..We've ALL been played..join the dots..WE ARE THE GAME

As a Brit... I've been to Canada many times (the first time as a soldier in 1981) and of late in the likes of BC, I've fished there. Love, love, love Canada and the Canadians. I've been to America too, and I love it there also. And while I'm not always a good judge of people...I flatter myself I'm a VERY good judge of character. And oh man, have they ever got it wrong with this Trump fella. Now there's a bloke I would not like to find myself in a combat situation since he'd likely shoot me in the back and run the other way. I just find myself asking how on earth it has come to this. How can they possibly think that a person such as this is a fit bloke to lead their country. Hitler? Don't talk to me about Hitler America. Honestly, it would make you want to weep...

What makes Donald Trump think Canada would want any part of this shit storm current Trump‘s first term the Canadian immigration website crashed as people were trying to be out of here. Canada definitely has more sensible leadership why our country is led by a grifter who has turned a lot of sensible and educated Americans into zombies or should I say he’s like the big bully on the playground someone should’ve told Donald Trump that you get more flies with honey than vinegar

Thank You Mr. Trudeau, as a Canadian I've never been more proud to call you my Prime Minister ??????❤❤❤??????

As an American, I’m deeply sorry for what we’ve become by electing this orange idiot into the White House. I stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, and the rest of our global allies in opposition to our “president’s” bent to authoritarianism and isolationism. I truly hope that we can course correct before we (globallly) plunge into something much darker. \n\nKudos to prime minister Trudeau and other leaders speaking truth and calling the situation we’re now in for what it is.

What a joke. Vancouver to name one city is the most drug ridden hellhole I've ever visited.

I’ve never heard a more disingenuous speech. Look at his eyes Canadians. He lies just like Trump.

Donald is the worst president we've ever had. Anyone who still supports him has no humanity, plain and simple.

The PM is known for his statesmanship, for rarely losing his cool, and never forgetting diplomacy. I’ve never seen him so furious—and rightfully so.

Mr Trudeau, first time I’ve seen you give an intelligent speech. But as I see it, you have been bad overall for the country of Canada. Why don’t you accept Donald’s offer to be the 51st state of America? After all, as I understand it, Canada lives off the USA as it is. Why not be a part of something greater?

I live in this godforsaken joke of a country and I've been unemployed for OVER TWO YEARS despite having a degree, 5y experience, and a willingness to move literally anywhere for work. The economy is DEAD. We are SCREWED. Annexation is unironically the only way I see that we can get out of this unless we want to turn into a failed state.

oh my goodness. Compare the intelligence, eloquence and dignity of this man compared to the ringmaster, Trump. America, what have you done? You've backed a ringmaster and now you have a circus for a government.

Donald , we’ve done BIG THINGS …

Trudeau is saying exactly more or less what zelensky was saying when he went into the Trump's den and got mauled by all of the Mega Trump cult conspiracy supporters. I don't know what Kool-Aid they've been drinking but it's betrayal and hazardous to our allies and most of the American people. The only party that gets stronger from this is russia. Our present obviously has been compromised by Vladimir Putin he's a traitor he should be tried for treason. In the end soon he will get his pay back one way or another for causing so much outrage

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

Well done Canada, I'm closing my Amazon and eBay account, I've had enough of anything Aamerican.

It seems pretty obvious. There've been rumors that Trump is a Russian stooge. Now, everything he's doing is either eroding western alliances or empowering Russia. The US is a puppet of Putin's Russia at this point. Never thought I'd see it in my lifetime.

Sorry. Trudeau lied. He called Trump “smart”. He’s the stupidest person I’ve ever seen. An absolute moronic buffoon.

Don’t worry about the US pecker head. Worry about how your country will survive. The US will be just fine while your country struggles on a whole new level. Pay up and give the US the money you’ve robbed year after year back you bum.

Unfortunately, you’ve been leaching off the American Economy too long. The gig’s over guys. Lower your tariffs to us and just be fair. If not, we will create our own products and/or get our resources elsewhere.

3:34 you’ve done shit

It's funny, the season just after Trudeau resigned, is when he finally begins to fill his boots as Canadian PM. I've never seen him so bold and assertive. It's fucking hot.

I've always liked Canada. Beautiful country and awesome people. Greetings from Poland ? \nLet's make The US know it's place

You step up right but only now when it cost you something what about millions of our young ppl that’s been killed by this drugs for the past 4 yrs WHY DIDNT YOU STEP UP THEN ??? Just only now when it cost you something I’ve lost 4 family members and NOW you step up. We you need to step down!!!

I’ve read a lot of comments from people saying “Trudeau ruined Canada” in response to people expressing their support for Trudeau in this time.\n\nThat’s not really a great point.\n\nIf Trudeau hasn’t been good for Canada, but gives a coherent, inspiring, and professional speech in this moment that unites Canadians and others alike, then that should speak so much to how awful this situation is. Huge respect to Trudeau and Canada for not backing down. I hope one day we’ll be allies with the right side of the world again.\n\nWe wanna talk about a leader ruining a country? That’s what Donald is doing right now. Except he won’t unite us in the future with a speech like this.\n\nThis American stands with Canada!

Canadians are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Americans on the other hand…

The fact that this clown thinks we give a sh is hysterical. So it’s ok for Canada to pay 1.3% gdp towards nato while we pay 60% and put ourselves in debt to the tune of one trillion dollars a year TO PROTECT THEM. They tariff us double or triple what we charge them but that’s supposed to be fine. Canada is a government that doesn’t give af about this country or the clueless people in this thread. Don’t believe me just do the research and see what they’ve been charging us all over Europe. Do some research and stop being ignorant about this topic. Canada is 1,3 % of our gdp. We are 60% of theirs. Do the math.

Donald! We’ve done big things together.\nLook how he chose the word carefully, so Donald would understand that this is not sarcastic.

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.

I think it's important to citizens of the world outside of America to know that not all of us represent this government! I am a veteran and never would turn my back on leadership... Until this clown. I stand with Canada, and all of you who have stated as much. We who didn't vote trump in can now only stand by and watch this mistake happen! It's going to take nations to come together with us to stop this dictator from destroying everything we've fought for! I have given my life to the military as we deployed to many countries to support efforts to rebuild after disasters both natural and man made. Now I call on this nations to stand ready when we need you most! Please don't give up on those of us who still care. It's time!!!

I ain’t NEVER in my life bought anything I America that said it was made in Canada. I’ve never even seen anything that said it was maid in Canada. Soooooo ?

They should check the shipping containers in Vancouver you should’ve been doing this for seven years ago I don’t know why you’re not working on our military building it up I think you’re sleeping?️??

Trudeau and Carney ate the Trump of the left.... don't believe one word coming out of this guys mouth. He's been putting tariffs on his own citizens for almost a decade in the form of a Carbon Tax. And it's set to go up again soon. Fuck Trudeau. They've. prorogued government during the time we need them the most to avoid a vote of none confidence because they're cowards making back room deals to benefit them and not Canadians. This is a show from a drama teacher that his handler Carney told him to put on. We need an election in a bad way.

Tariffs don’t help Americans, maybe businesses and corporations but not us. Americans should travel to Australia and see what they could’ve bought and how cheap they are. Thank you government for banning some countries products and making their cheap prices outta reach for the average Americans. ?

It's crazy how you people can put up with all this jargon every day politicians lawyers TV news like a bunch of ants fighting over bread I'm so proud of myself for getting rid of my TV in 1992 and not being part of the matrix I laughed my Sicilian balls off as a pray my rosary for all you people that just don't get it Turn your TVs off for one month hide your smart phone free yourselves like a bunch of ants running around instead of a shoebox after a piece of bread money hungry I can go on forever and ever etc. etc. love one another like Jesus loves us it's not about money Ben Franklin is not the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth is . Remember the poor we're suffering not like a fake Rich you should've voted Michael Jackson as president you people are all crazy it's all greed every country every president all greed every politician greed money money money money money money money money money greed
