Trudeu's mistake with this speech is that he is trying to explain something to PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP

This is all for show. If Trudeau cared about his Canadian citizens he wouldn't have censored their speech the last several years or restricted their religious freedom, or jailed their truck drivers or, taxed them in to oblivion with his father the last several decades. Be wise folks.

Trump can't give a speech without it becoming a whine about how unfairly he is being treated.\nTrudeau, in the face of actual oppression, is calm, steady and professional.\nThe difference is like night and day.

Such a great clarity of speech. Not all of us voted for Trump. We stand together with our friends Canada ! #friends forever ❤

He’s so out of line, he’s only going to embarrassed himself…. Most of his speech made no sense….

Wow. Great speech Trudeau. We can make it through this my fellow canadians. ??????

Best speech ever

I think it would be great if all news media boycotted the frump Congress speech tonight... There won't be anything factual anyway....and maybe it will upset the 5th grader..

Trump supports won't watch or listen to this, people who hate Trump already know this.. this great speech is going to fall on deaf ears of the Maga Americans.\nCant Americans see Trump is literally making America shit cause he's a comprised Russian agent.

What a fantastic, brave speech! ? Polish-Canadian from Ottawa

I wish to side track just slightly from this videos content. This individual who calls himself the PM of Canada is nothing short of a criminal. You're listening to a child pretending to be an adult. Trudeau is the reason that freedom is vanishing from Canada. He openly admires the Communist system of China (social credit system). He has destroyed the economy of Canada all by himself. He is desperate to destroy freedom of speech and punishes all who oppose him. Please remember what Trudeau did to Canadians during the PEACEFUL trucker protest in Ottawa. He froze bank accounts for Canadians who stood by the truckers. He inposed some of the harshest lockdown measures in the world during the pandemic and he abolutely HATES democracy. Have you forgotten his blackface scandal as well? This is the face of an absolute TYRANT pretending to be a crusader for fairness. Don't forget his total ripping during the UN speech he gave about 2 years ago when foreign UN representatives tore into him for his open tyranny against Canadians. His security thugs have assulted journalists simply for asking him honest questions about the Canadian economy and now you are swayed by a suit wearing mobster. He protects terrorists across Canada while simultaneously arresting Canadians for demanding their freedom to be restored. This guy is a THUG in an expensive suit and nothing more. It's nausiating to see how quickly people forget and how easily they are swayed by a bandit in an expensive suit. WAKE UP. Trudeau is the face of evil and you admire him. Nausiating.

What a terrific speech. Trump is a Russian agent and should be impeached

Trudeau crushed free speech and lowered the standard of living in Canada below every US state. Even Mississippi. Government supported suicide did increase though.

sadly...your speech is too long so as to be difficult for Trump to understand. Maybe try simple words and short sentences next time ?

What an AMAZING Speech!❤

As an english person what a sincere and intelligent speech - something that trump would never ever be able to make

Dont put Tariffs on the USA as they are passed onto the end user/consumer which are the American people. Put the prices up on your sale of electricity, oil and gas 25% that the US government buys, so it hits them first and they will think twice. ..... Trump never mentioned cost of living in his acceptance speech which had us wondering. This is why.

What a super speech; kudos Justin.

Not a fan of what Trudeau has done to my country over his time in office but credit where credit is due; that speech was articulate, factual and tactful. Well said Mr. Trudeau.

Great speech Justin We love you God Bless

One of the best speeches i have heard in a long time. So close to the heart of all Canadians.

I must say even though he's had his flaws while in government, this speech was great! Right to the point, talking to Americans, the Donald and Canadian's. Stating the facts, what they have done as asked, and how Donald is trying to ruin the country with an illegal attack of unjustified tariffs.

SLAM DONK 100% LOVE THIS SPEECH, LET'S GO CANADA HOME RUN ,GIVE HIM MORE ????.

You all are brainwashed… How easy we forget the forced vaccine mandates, the intrusion of personal bank accounts, suppression of real scientific research, liberty and free speech…should I go on?—And Yes Trump isn’t perfect, but I rather deal with a part-time egotistic than live under psychopaths who force binary dogmas and believe Men can have babies…

Full support to the prime minister Trudeau, not to get humiliated again and again, your speech is strong and most needed.

Trudeau gets a lot of abuse but this was a masterpiece of a speech. Civil war is on the cards in the USA.

I'm with Canada. I am not pleased how CNN presented this speech however. They should have let the French speech play out with interpretation as Trudeau is not repeating what he already said in English and he provided more information. Also CNN keeps interrupting the question/answer portion of the speech. I want this news from the horse's mouth, not the news person's interpretation or regurgitation of what was said. I went to another source to see the complete speech instead of staying on this channel. I recommend that other viewers do the same if you want complete information.

Brilliant speech! We stand with Canada. From Srinagar Kashmir

Great speech but calling Donald a smart man was just pandering to that idiot.

Mr Trudeau is extraordinarily soft, soft as feathers, it really amazes me that Canada and Mexico rush the all month of Jan and Feb to captures felons to avoid tariffs, very poor speech. He claims that he is doing it to protect the people from Canada the real question is why you didn’t do it before.\nClaudia Sheinbaum also rushing to capture the bad guys, when clearly Trump is offering help to capture the corrupt politicians and cartel lords but No, instead she delivers 29 guys that were already captured and been in jail for years… What it’s this ? It’s like ordering a Ribeye steak and getting a pizza. Come on !!

He learned the speech of President Trump??

First: sorry for my bad english. It is not my First language. \n\nThis speech was remarkable. No lies, no BS, just the facts. Wish we would here the same out of the White House. \n\nAs a german who knows about german history and how everything started back then I'm terrified how fast the United States of America are moving towards a dictatorship.\n\nEvery politician around the free world should be worried about what is going to happen if DT keeps doing what he is doing, which is undermining every treaty and contract the US is having with the rest of the world.\n\nAnd on a personal note: as a child I always dreamed of someday moving to the USA. After beeing there on holiday in 2017 and also driving to Canada to visit some friends, that dream changed.\n\nDon't get me wrong, I still love your country, but you elected the worst President for the second time! WHY??? You could have known what it would be like, everything was reported on by this network and many others.\n\nAs one commentator said: this is not going to end well. And I and most of Europe and the rest of the world are thinking the same and we are afraid of the things to come.

Well done Prime Minister. An excellent, clear and unequival speech.

Great speech, but until it hurts them, they don’t believe. ?

Not a fan of Trudeau or anything left wing, but thought this was a great speech. The UK stands with Canada.

In blistering speech… ???? Yea ok, wait till they see those blistering tariffs

This is leadership, devoid of self-interest, bigotry, cowardice, or division. It is hard to be misrepresented by “Donald”, who is desecrating what it means to be an American. Prime Minister Trudeau’s speech is inspirational and would fill me with fighting spirit if I were a Canadian. “Donald” contributed the divisions in our country and now he is isolating us from our allies. As Americans, we are stuck in a relationship with an over narcissist. Being American stays alive in every one of us who upholds the ideals of our country. A president is a civil servant, so he is our employee. He does not behave like an employee and as such, he should be fired. It is what “Donald” would do. ??‍♂️

It’s deeply embarrassing that the only way to make sure the President listens is to address him by name in a speech. I wish I’d been born in Canada

Ask if Alberta believes Trudeau is for them like Trump is for the USA. Ask the truckers if they believe this speech.

historical speech, Liberals we are so back. Pierre Poilievre is seething somewhere rn

As a Canadian I'm not a fan of Trudeau but this is a very good speech, proud to be a Canadian.

I’m not a fan of Trudeau but well done on a great speech . Unfortunately Donald will simply say we haven’t done enough to curtail the flow of fentanyl into the US

Maybe Trump could get Melania to translate in another language for him in his public speeches - maybe French, Italian or even Spanish so the rest of our adversaries citizens can understand what he’s saying. ?

Nice to hear coherent sentences, a well-balanced speech with an intro, substance, and conclusion. Such a joy compared to the whiny incoherency of the spiteful old man.

It’s truly unbelievable how gullible people can be, and I’m not saying this to be cruel, this is just the straight truth. Justin Trudeau is a proven liar and an opportunist, plain and simple. Time and time again, he’s shown that he’ll say whatever fits his agenda, no matter how dishonest or manipulative. He’s openly embraced and pushed harmful, nonsensical ideologies, including radical transgender policies aimed at children. Without question, he’s been the most damaging Prime Minister in Canadian history. Under his leadership, Canada isn’t just struggling, it’s circling the drain. That speech everyone’s praising — he didn’t even write it. It’s all just another performance, another chance to prop up his fake image. The truth is, Trudeau has done far more harm to this country than good, and that’s the reality whether people want to admit it or not.\n\nAnd for all the Trump haters out there, it’s incredible, actually baffling, how nobody seems to be talking about the billions and billions of taxpayer dollars that have been completely wasted — just vanished into thin air. You don’t hear a word about that. It’s unbelievable. Meanwhile, America’s borders were secure under Trump, but you never hear about that either. And let’s not forget, men weren’t allowed to compete against women in sports, which should be common sense, but somehow even that’s controversial now. The silence on all of it is staggering. It’s absolute insanity.

Amazing speech Trump and his people need to hear truth

Anti-Americanism? Seriously? That is NOT what he said. Did you listen to any part of his speech at all? The English version, not the French one. Although if you'd listened to the French version, it would better explain why you are misrepresenting what he actually said. You might have misunderstood a large portion of it.

Very good speech by Honourable Prime Minister of Canada Mr. Justin Trudeau

Im English and glad to hear that speech against the back stabbing Donald. Well done sir ????

As an American, Trudeau, as he mentioned in his speech, is no friend of mine. These tariffs aren't going to hurt me any more than the last 4 years in america has under democrat leadership. I lost family to fentanyl, I lost my job due to terrible democrat economic policies. I lost my home. I lost my savings. I lost all hope of ever owning a home. Im losing my mother to what I am sure was the jab. I've got nothing left to take. Tariffs aren't going to hurt me. Liberal policies, from people just like Trudeau, have destroyed my life. I want to see him in ruins.\n\nI feel for the citizens of Canada. I don't care what liberal news media says- I know that Canadian people want him gone too.
