The reason for trumps behavior is an all personal EGO. He doesn't want to look bad in front of others, even if it means hurting the country and their people. Its a childish game on a large scale schoolyard. He doesn't care who gets hurt. As long as he wins. He's blinded by his behavior. Maybe thats why he's president the puppeteer knew what he was doing. Canada ??

Canadian government has made Canadians paralyzed for decades with high tax rates, made worst business decisions emptied citizens pockets to fill outsiders and their own. Instead of making Canadians rich you have made us poor. I don't disagree to standup for yourself but our foundation is the weakest. If you want to change something think of Canadians make things easier...STOP making admissions hard for professionals pay more wages where its needed and stop increasing minimum wages without improving the lifestyle of people. A 16 yr old making minimum wage and don't even know what to do with the money improve the quality of life. Make businesses boom by helping them with easier access to grants and business approvals. Help investors to grow and help middle class to become investors, make import export much easier. Better laws to protect investors...help those who are growing the economy not dinging them with more and more taxes. This tariff war is going to hurt us more than anyone else. Us poor Candians will have to pay for this hurt our children and our seniors. And that's exactly what Trump and Elon want. To the next Canadian PM - HELP CANADIANS! LET LIVE AND LET GROW...

Two idiots are driving that world into the abyss, and no one is even trying to stop them. People have become lazy cowards

We the people I am so sick of hearing Trump name everyday and I mean everyday. And we know that we should not be friends with a war criminal. We were taught all our lives that no not is above the law. The FBI and the CIA got our back. The military and the police or the best in the world. And no one is above the law. And even though we were not prefect we was taken maybe baby steps but they were steps. Now we have one party who has soul out to Russia. How do you feel about being friends with Putin.? And now the MAGA party does not want to talk to We the people at town meetings. And I believe everything that Trudeau and the Mexico President over anyone and I mean anyone in the MAGA fascist party.

This is how we treat our friends and allies now. It's as if Trump has chosen to go to war against the American people directly, ruining our friendships like a jealous mate who wants to isolate you from his friends. He doesn't want us to have friends other than an equally abusive one like Russia. Did the voters really want this, even the ones who voted for him?

This will cause much damage to the economy and the American people, but it will help the billionaires enrich themselves even more. They always know how to use a good economic crisis to their advantage.

Everything will even out.\nWe, the normal people, will foot the bill.

It is not even about drugs, they don't care about drugs or people. It is about power and money.

President Trudeau-I’m an American. We live paycheck to paycheck. We didn’t vote for Trump & the GOP. The Republican Party has been doing everything it can to destroy America & the hard working people that keep it running, for years. They’ve finally succeeded. It’s an evil party, filled with vile,malicious assholes. But even though we won’t be able to afford many more things anymore, I greatly admire & appreciate you & your country standing up to Trump. If only more of our own ppl would have done that, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

Trump doesn’t care about facts. \nI stand with Canada, Ukraine, Greenland, Mexico and Panama (where I live). \nTrump IS a Russian asset. \nWe are seeing it play out in real time, so fast, that some people can’t even see it. \n#TraitorTrump

I just can believe what Trump's government is doing, he's not even hiding it anymore, isolating the US and giving your country to the hands of Russia and going forward of China. Americans must do something about this, remember that a Country is governed by the people and not by few thugs! \nFrom Italy all of this is really hard to watch.

Inflation is to the roof, Make food and housing affordable, please people just help impeach him, he is golfing while the american people are struggling everyday.... He is just trying to pass stupid laws that keep getting blocked by courts, Come on Trump supporters try helping fix it by calling your local office and impeach him, I bet anyone else is better than Trump, we know the country needs changes but we are still the biggest economy of the world the richest country, Why do we have to feel like is normal not to have affordable food and housing?? The basics of life... All the immigrants are gone, They even left by their own will, and Some Americans left to other countries, Mexico, Europe, Asia..... What do you guys want?? Having an empty country once was the biggest economy of the world?? Is just crazy even a blind person can see he is destroying the whole country..... He is not even a good business person we all know he didn't payed taxes, he went bankrupt so many times he knows how to scam people, Saying the USA government doesn't work because he feels like it, Just travel people so you can see the difference between usa government and other governments around the world........

One of my favorite TV shows was border patrol Canada and I used to see how even Americans couldn't come across your border with something as small as a DUI on their record how did all of these Indians get into your country and people that cost into ours

Bottom line to all this is the fact that the American people voted orange man fool back into office.\nOrange man even said during the elections what he was going to do…..so don’t act now as if you were blind sided or lied to because you were warned.\nReally its the American fools that voted for him that really is at fault but its too late to start blaming, etc.\nAll you American MAGA voters are getting exactly what you voted for….now just shut up…stop crying and complaining and just suck it up and deal with it.

He even pissed off the Canadians. Probably EU should work closer with Canada, and maybe even China if the US is not able to get their ****** together.\nAnd pls , hurry , would be cool if we could elect people that a grown up.

Stop JT. You have no right to speak to the US people. You can't even talk to Canadians who disagree with you. You could have avoided this, but you'd rather see terrorists, fentanyl and sex trafficking continue in Canada.

President Trudeau, I can’t for the life of me figure out why anyone would call “the little tramp” smart…everyone knows even his professors at school said he was dummer than a ROCK!! This just proves him right. We stand with you and Europe and the Ukrainian people in hopes that Putin goes straight to hell. As well as the little tramp and his tiny little republican playmates.

He's right about Canadians we love our Brothers and Sisters, its YOU TRUDORK THAT EVEN YOUR OWN PEOPLE CANT STAND ?

It takes the PM of Canada to explain to the American people, in very clear and concise terms, the cost of having elected Trump. I've yet to see anything even close from any of our elected Democrats. But maybe, it has to come from someone outside, without the political baggage, even if we did have a strong, articulate political opposition to the Trump and the feckless GOP.

???? idiot Zelenskyy is a dictator for stopping the president vote he’s not even president he’s time has expired, also trudoly your an idiot to, open your eyes people

This evening I will eat pancakes with maple syrup in honour of the excellent Canadian people. Much respect and love from Norway.

Why is he talking funny? I mean even different that Canadian English. Is he trying to sound smart? Oh yea, and along with Trump even most Canadians want Trudeau gone sound do everyone a favor. Even YOUR people, just resign.

Trump , vance and Musk , are not very smart , \nby open trade wars , only the people get hurt on both sides , \nand if USA go after europ then usa will loose even more , \nUsa need us as much as we need them , and Trump \nshould start thinking , becosue americans are loosing power as well \nmust of in europe dont see USA as western leadership anymore , \nthat eneded when people of USA was stupid enough to vote for trump and \nvance , we warned USA people this would happent and still they voted trump \nand now you want us to stand with you ,,,, honestly we have a saying that goes like this \nyou gonna lay in the bed you made , and if you complain about you better redue you bed ! \nSo RNC votes , do you feel the pain the trump a, vance and musk are doing to you , \nif you do then time to remove the idiots from power ! \nand btw , you should rename RNC to RNCC ( Real Northamerica Criminal Consortium)

Trudeau is a weak leader, plain and simple. The people of Canada want him out of there. He's screwed up the economy big time in Canada and his only recourse is to come after Trump. He's weak and he is pathetic. Keep your eyes on Alberta, they really have the power in Canada, and they are fed up of bankrolling this idiot and the rest of the provinces. Let's make Alberta the 51st State. Trudeau can keep the rest of the Socialists. As far as his comments on Russia, the guy is far off base its not even worth commenting on it. Trudeau is a little minion and has lost complete respect on the world stage.

I like how people act like Canada is a good country when they are replacing their people in break next speeds and they can hardly afford groceries. Their government is even more corrupt than the United States.

Yankee doodles forget who they called to land their planes when 9/11 struck and they attacked themselves and people took them into their own homes….the world is going to respond. And maybe next time you can land your planes in the Atlantic instead of on our Rock. \n\nLargest Military on the Planet and you Can’t put out a few flames? LA California Burned to the Ground…But somehow you needed our water bombers and Helicopters? \n\n9/11 Struck and we shipped countless personnel to help and assist and relieve, recover, and rebuild. \nYou went to war with the Wrong Countries and we Went with you anyway. \n\nAmerican Companies Helped the Nazi’s building mass execution chambers and Tattooing machines for labelling. Hell, even going so far as a few years ago to try billing Germany for unpaid products received. \n\nAnd yet we still Ally with them?….\n\nWe are now turning off your Power supply. We Will Match your Tarriffs. \nAnd we will Fight you On or Off the Ice! \n\nOh and we’re putting Tarriffs on Silver. Apparently you Go home with Silver too often.

Little Trump is not a president nor is he a businessman. He’s a scared little rat a draft dodger and think America if he was afraid to fight in the war then what makes us think that he would protect us now he’s a scared rat. He’s afraid of his own shadow. The family kids and the grandchildren are the ones that are going to feel the damage he will do to this country in four years. I feel so sorry for our men and women in the military now and our veterans are taking a pounding very sad . He’s only doing it to benefit for his own greed. Very sad human being. He’s miserable he’s depressed. You can see it in his face. He was a piece of shit to the American people before he ever even thought of being a president he owes contractors millions of dollars through his life no wonder he has a bull’s-eye on his back and they say he can’t sleep at night well, I wonder why he fucked the American people and he will keep fucking American people nobody will stop him He will keep fucking us until he’s done. And after all that damage that he will do to this country, in the four years it will be so damaged. It will never heal.

Remember Trudeau just like zenkesky failed to remember that it's not Joe in charge anymore someones in there that will not be disrespected an told what when or he was what's going to happen an especially in the position everyone is in America is not going to be a sucker no more an show love to other countries we don't get back no love now let's make if fair across the board an the tarrifs are great us people just want some of there needs an security but we're trillions in debt an no body seems to help or care or even say anything about it an the saddest part of it all is president trumps fault that how stupid people an brainwashed that the left had left on them hate in the there hearts

A KGB troll in the white house and more than half of the American people too stupid to even comprehent.\nCarl Sagan was right all along...

Half the people in these comments voted for Trump even if you don't like to admit it now but I'm just curious on when did everyone wake tf up finally...I mean it's too late now ofc ...yall fd up but I mean but damn finally,???

Trudeau spoke the truth — except when he said Donald Trump is a smart man.\nDonald Trump is one of the dumbest people on earth. He only benefitted from being elected by even dumber people.

Canadian leaders, please do not let Zelenskyy sign a mineral deal with the US. trump is setting Ukraine up to fail and take advantage of the Ukrainian people, like he lied to Americans. The world needs to now fight Russia and the White House. I stand with Canada and Mexico even though it is going to hurt my pocketbook...

These are things our government is doing in full sight in order to distract all attention to the chaos ensuing, so that the WH can pursue even more nefarious projects behind closed doors. Poisoning democracy in an attempt to bring us to our knees before oligarchs and fascists. Trump has made it clear he seeks to be a dictator. Please research how fascism develops. Please people, don’t swallow propaganda initiated by the putin regime. \nTrump seems indeed to be a putin regime asset. Why else destroy all ally relationships?

Go spend your money on ukraine stop lecturing to people who don't even know where your capital is located

As a German - apart from the content which is no less than justified - just technically comparing Trudeau´s speech with Donald Trump´s verbal outcome - what an incredible difference in niveau & tone. Isn't it almost tragic how little skill it took to run the U.S and even worse, how low the common-sense-threshold must be for a half of the American people to make this happen a second time. Embarrassing.

All those who are transporters and they still don’t see anything wrong with what’s happening I’m going to pray for you and your delusional state because this does not have anything to do Republican or democrat. This has to do with the rich middle class in the poor two you guys understand that he does not give a damn about you. He only wanted to vote. You’re going to understand when things start happening in your life in your world and you’re begging for help and you realize that this person sees you in need of help and they won’t help you Then you’re gonna realize he used you but until your world comes crumbling crashing down you’re not gonna understand so sit back enjoy this ride and watch your life. Crumble everything you work for will be gone. All your hopes and dreams will be gone after his presidency is over after this. You know how long it’s gonna take for us to come back from this hell we might even be rule by Russia everybody ready for that I don’t think so. They’ll be no democracy in this country no longer you will do what is told of you or you will suffer consequences they will be fatal so wake up get a grip on what is happening in reality right now you wanna look at him like he’s God he’s king. I don’t see him as a present. I see him as a fucking problem. He thinks he’s solving problems. He is creating chaos and more problems. When this is over we’re not even gonna be able to fix this shit it’s gonna take decades hell these people may not even wanna do business with us ever again we gonna be a third world country And everybody else around us gonna be thriving.?

man, just living to survive is hard enough for many people even for min wage earners and now this. The point? I think its ego from trump. Dont get me wrong I actually support some of trump policies but this is spiraling out of control. Ukraine, Allies turned enemies wtf.

This guy is a very wise guy plus he cares about his people, even he cares about us citizens. Blessings to all .

He can huff and puff all he wants. But, he's leaving soon. Nothing he says matters. Things will change soon for the Canadian people. Why you're even giving this waste of space airtime is beyond me.

We do not choose as allies those who jail truck drivers and preachers for exercising their rights of free speech and religion. \n\nCanada is not a democracy and it is not friendly to the American people in its present state. Return freedoms to your people, pay the entire amount of your arrears to your military budget as per your NATO membership and shut down illegal immigration and drug trafficking at your border and even the trade balance then we can talk.

The trump(et) has taken USA hostage. Even some republicans are shocked.\n\nTrudeau: We in Europe are with you. And with Mexico.\n\nAnd to the american people: The sooner you can dispose of this narcisistic madman - The better. Not just for you but for all of us.

Trudeau doesn’t even have to announce tariffs on American good, we the people of Canada are boycotting American good. And we might no just be do this for the next 4 years but for generations of Canadians to come. Go scream at Trump and Vance not us, you did this when you voted for Trump.

We now have a criminal administration in the US if that were not enough the leader is also crazy. Americans are only just starting to feel the pain his policies will bring to us and now even more to Canadians whose economy is in a more fragile state than ours. The silver lining is American people will stand with the people of other countries including Canadians to take back their power from a would be dictator who cares not about people but only the bottom line. Appologies to all Canadians from the people of the USA !

Screw Trudeau he is a whack job! And a far left liberal even his own people hate him.

Go Trump GO ... The company's are already coming back home and even some that never where here are coming to the U.S . Soon there will be more then enough work for the American people . Its time for this country to work for the American people instead of worring about the rest of the world . We have plenty to take care of right here at home first

He is furious. It is astonishing how one single man can have such a global impact and it all seems to come down to who flatters Trump the most, who writes the biggest cheque for his campaign, etc. \n\nThe US administration needs urgent reform: Trump has removed aid, affecting millions, especially women, has now left Ukraine floundering with Elon Musks satellites probably on the chopping block too, and for the American people he has ensured that prices will go up even more. \n\nThe only silver lining is it is well overdue that Europe is properly energy independent and armed. We also need to get much wiser about the floods of migrants.

Should’ve protected that border! Lol. Now your people are gonna pay even more while being taxed 45% of their income. Win for America

Terrorist don't affect governments they affect the people that's why Trump blew it and made another fucking stupid mistake the Importer pays a higher price he turns around and just raises the price to the American Consumer people not even knowing really how much they got raised but they usually toss in a little bit extra and then blame it on the government that's how dumb this is

The people of canada can't even afford housing there. Trudeau has ruined the country,his approval ratings reflect this. America doesnt have any reason to fund a proxy war against Russia either. all you people have been brainwashed against the Trump administradion. FDR wasn't even going to get us involved in WW2, remember isolationism? we need more of that to cut back our military budget people
