This was not an anti American speech! Not sure who the lady from Ottawa.

Well-balanced speech of an adult and mature citizen of this world.

Nice to hear an intelligent speech. Why destroy relationships with your closest allies and then cuddle up to Putin and Russia? The only thing that makes sense is that Trump wants to make the USA like Russia. An oligarchy where the ultra-rich have all the money and control, and everyone else is poor and powerless.

100% support to Canada, from France.\nThis is a great speech.\nIt gives me hope when I see leaders of any countries stand up like that. Trump is one of the cancers we all have to fight right now.

speech,speech is all this guy do that's why he is out.

I’m not a liberal or a fan of Trudeau, but that might have been the best speech he’s ever made. Canada strong ?

Great speech! Much respect to Canada and the Prime Minister!???

Amazing speech ! Will maga morans wake up a little and spell the shit?

I want to move to Canada now. As an American I have never seen anything so stupid than what our president did. I am 1/2 Canadian and shock at what is happening to our friends up north. This was a great speech and I am very impressed with what they will do to help their fellow citizens.

A very intelligent, honest and masterful speech! I live in Germany and support Mr. Trudeau and the Canadian citizens 100%. I hope that the people of the USA will soon realize that their own president is destroying their country and damaging the USA's reputation around the world.

This speech is neither intelligent nor thought out. But it is hyperbolic, with plenty of name calling, and he has made it all about himself.\nCanada does not have a grown-up for a president; it has a coward.

I am American and as an independent i truly apologize ,and im ashamed in out elected leader and the incapable cabinet . i did not vote for him and i hope we can get control of our house again from this nuthouse i wish u well and hope that we can all get through this together instead of allowing him to continue to decide. And also i want to give Justin Trudeau the credit of a great speech. Its a breath of fresh air. I stand with everyone whos on the side of right and just peaceful interactions.

I'm really surprised how sharp this speech was, and dense, with no made up alternative facts mumble. I should listen to more Trudeau speeches and less Trump. The rational, fact-based argumentation is like recharging after so much trump nonsense

I would've loved to see him making this speech in a t-shirt ?

That's a very good speech

What a speech! Brilliant statesmanship, Mr Trudeau. We in Europe should echo these sentiments and emulate Canada’s response. Respect!!

Australian here, I honestly have no words, but that speech is amazing well done prime minister Trudeau. What a man and what a country ? ? love to all Canadians ❤

BRAVO - Sharp speech from Trudeau. We Danes are so happy that Canada is so loyal to the free world and Europe.

That was a solid speech from Trudeau. Tariff is a desastrous action from Trump. He hide his real agenda in his campaign. I hope a vast majority of American realize how dumb and bully a President they have.

It's hilarious that so many people think speech means anything.. \nOh, did you write Trump a nasty letter? Oh no whatever will Trump do? \nIt sucks being a Democrat these days. (To be clear, I am a Democrat who is very disappointed with Democrats who do nothing and think that talking is going to do anything)

These comments have to be bots ?. Trudeau is one of the worst leaders the world has ever seen. Took away Canadians rights. Took away free speech. Just to name a few. But he gives one good speech and all is forgotten?? Like I said, these comments HAVE to be bots lmaoo ?.

Love how he slows down his speech speed and uses simple words.

Americans: remember what it's like to have a smart person for president. Cohesive speech, no bullying, no name-calling, no stupid analogies, no n4z1 billionaires making all the decisions...

He does not speak an honest word. The tone and cadence of speech is so scripted and acted, at least we get to see Trump how he really is, this is a wolf in sheeps clothing. Zero authenticity.

Great speech.\nDirect with clarity.

Very good speech President Justin Trudeau!!! Wish you come back for our President for another 4 years or more! You are strong, professional and work for people of Canada. You care for your country and not against. We need you ?

Nice speech from Canadian PM.

The start of his speech was brilliant and shows up this skewered Trump style logic...

Canadians do not have the same freedom of speech as we do, gun laws, and they do not spend the money we do in defense of other countries as we do so don't give me that shit.

Great speech,but, Prime Minister Trudeau got one thing wrong. trump is not a smart guy.

From Brazil; Seems like Trudeau never disappoints, what a amazing speech and leadership

Free advice. Don't call my president by his first name in an official speech.

what a beautifully crafted and heartfelt speech by a true leader. no bluster, no hyperbolic ranting, just facts and setting out the stage as trump is engineering it

This is the type of speech hard to listen to, the type of speech you need to give to a country about to go war, make no mystake, thats what this is, and this is also the type of speech that shows who is and who is not fit for leadership, Trudeau you made mistakes when you were younger, but who didnt, but you sure matured to be a leader who can make people follow you from youre words alone, im glad we have a president in south america with such caracther on the side of reason and peace, with all the doomlike scenarios i conjure from seeying Trump pulling the USA to side with Russia and only imagine russia joining nazi germany just to get also screwed as soon as russia gets the chance and trump is clueless about it, youre speech eased my mind a bit, thank you and thank you to all the people of Canada

That's a real speech. Not like the trumps erratic ramblings. Not filled with lies but with facts.

I am not Canadian,nor US.Justin seems to be more coherent and composed as opposed to Trump.I know one resigned while the other got relected.I am putting this purely in terms of speech delivery.\nMy own country's leader's oration skills are crap,maybe that's why I feel the difference.For a change my ears aren't bleeding

Never been so embarrassed to be American. Thank you for calmly speaking out, using intelligent words and phrasing, stating FACTS, speaking Truth and not spewing any form of hate!!!! Canadians have every right to beam with Pride after this speech!

Mr. Trudeau, I salute you and your very bold speech. Let us stand together Canada and Europe, I salute you Mr. Trudeau....???

Amazing Speech ? God bless Canada ?? From Germany ??

I’m still voting for Pierre at the end of the day. But I am impressed with this speech.

From a Canadian citizen.\n\nExcellent speech, nice presentation with sugar coating, but the taste?\nHowever Trudeau is not telling the Truth about the Fentanyl of less than one ounce coming through the border?\nHow about Oil, Lumber and other minerals trades?\nThe USA has ten times more than what Canada have.\nWhat about border protection? Canada invested in two helicopters and many drones with thousands of land miles and the same on water to protect?\nThe cartels are much smarter than Trudeau borders policing, because they've already installed thousands of infiltrators throughout Canada to deliver any drug amount to the USA.\nAnd calling the president by his first name?\nTrudeau is taking Canada to another level, lower than we've seen or felt, because he's not a politician and not a businessman.\nFor last.\nThe notion that our lower level of politics still uses the word FIGHT instead of making a DEAL.\n\nAnd their old ways of saying, WE ARE WORKING HARD.\nINSTEAD OF WORKING SMART.\n\nMy opinions.

? he rhymed the first sentance of his speech. Wants to talk about inflation, meanwhile his varbon taxes inflated Canadian markets more than anything in our history. What a hypocrite.

If Putin is a murder? Then so is America? So is Ukraine? So is Palestine? So is Israel? In the 1990 Middle Eastern war USA ? tried so diligently to destroy the WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION!! ?? killing so many innocent people calling them terrorists. What do we call this action? GODLY ? Everyone is trying to show their power through Global Politics that they are greater than others and trying to rule every country in this world before fixing their own. Trudeau has brought Canada to poverty in his so called successful 2 terms government. He should think before he talks or like Hitler he should rehearse his speech in front of a mirror before opening his mouth in public, it's a whole lot of crap coming out in public and losing his sane ability. ?

Well delivered speech, chalk and cheese to that Trump chap

Great speech and right move, but I'm sure hospitals, and more specifically anesthesiologists, would strongly disagree with wanting to wipe fentanyl from the face of the earth ?

Brilliant speech! M. Trudeau will leave office on a high note.

Lovely speech! What is happening is horrible, absolutely no justification for our administration to do this. I'm sorry Canada ?

Hallelujah! \nBro, finally trudeau gives a bloody awesome speech.

Fanstastic, coherent, eloquent speech!

Excellent speech. I am proud of Trudeau.
