Hi Canadian friends! As an Italian used to live in a country ruled by many incapable politicians (truth is we stopped to have the most valuable ones between the second half of the 1970s and the first half of the 1980s) I have to say your prime minister Trudeau has always been seen like a good one from Europe and this speech is no exception. So, why will he soon leave his office? What' s there that we don' t know or understand?

That's crazy that even though there is a divide the Canadian prime minister still wants the best for Canadians and Americans. Where trump doesn't care only about his gains

Our great Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau. Does a great job despite our own idiot Maple Maga Convoy Twits up here who haven't stopped crying over Covid Vax's Traitors! Justin is a strong leader and a great communicator.

Never had more respect for the Canadian Prime Minister. I'm elated there's a man in politics, not just any man, but a leading figure , who has the guts to speak frankly! Everyone needs to do this, Trump is siding with a vile dictatorship, he's made a bed with Putin - it's clear as day and it's also clear as day that his government is not a government for the people, but for the nepo-billionaires that it's now made up of. Similar to how the Russian government is made up of oligarchs. Democracy can never be taken for granted, it's something we need to fight for!

Im canadian...and this is fact\nPrime Minister Turdeau LIES like the Facist piece of garbage he is\n42% of companies in Canada are American owned(Employing 2.5 Million Canadians)\n52% of Canada's debt is owned by America\nThis will NOT end well for Canada...\nRight now unemployment is 6.6%...if those 2.5 million lose their jobs that unemployment goes to 14%

Proud Canadian here! Respect to our prime minister, stand up Canada ??♥️

from Italy... I wish italian people will find a man like mr Trudeau one day as prime minister... I wish the best to canadian people

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wearing a suit, Donald don't know how to start talking now!

I think Trudeau wins the Heart ❤️ of not only the Canadians but of those of rest of the world who considers Bullying or threatening others not only unethical but a level of blackmailing as well. Nowadays this is being done by 'Donlad' as phrased by Justin Trudeau the Canadian Brave Prime Minister. So as an outcome of his speech the World feels better without 'Trump'. The rest of the world must respond to such illogical approaches as did Justin Trudeau??

Canada is not for sale, do not even think ? as Canadian citizen I stand with our prime minister Trudeau

Canadian people are just amazing and well said prime minister Trudeau.

Everyone knows The Canadian Prime Minister is widely unpopular & how do we know that he’s telling the truth? Is he being fact checked?

you call Putin a lying ,murderous dictator but Neytanyahu the prime minister of Israel who is committing a genocide is an angel .What a joke .An advice look after Canadians because what you have done to this beautiful country is mind blowing and pretty sad .

So sorry Prime Minister Trudeau to u and ur lovely Canadians! For this trade war! We as Americans well most of us feel really bad We r going threw so much more hardships because of dumb decisions going on in our government

??‍?U.S. Presidential Candidate Kamala Harris is probably thinking about those who voted for Donald Trump after watching Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, watching probationary federal workers being fired across the country, and threats to dismantle Social Security, How Ya Like Me Now? ? \n(Song by Kool Moe Dee ‧ 1987)

You go Prime minister Trudeau \nProud to be Canadian

I'm a Canadian and I welcome becoming the 51st! I'm sorry for what our communist canada has allowed to pour into your country. Hopefully we can become the 51st without any violence and see some real prosperity. Canada was sold by our prime minister long ago, hopefully yall can buy it back. God bless america!

To say Trudeau is speaking that bluntly because he’s on his way out is incorrect. He toes the party line and the Liberals have everything to lose. And, this is the same tone that all of the Canadian diplomats are using, including the foreign minister. They’ve had enough.

So proud of our Prime minister. Thanks for standing so strong for all Canadians. ❤

Canadian prime minister is so smart and presidential unlike that jerk-ttump.

Whether you have been in favour or not of Justin Trudeau. He has stepped up and has spoken for all of us Canadians. He is showing strength, class, democracy, and freedom, and his love for all Canadians. We thank you, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.!! ??❤️??❤️??

Our borders aren't safe. Trudeau opened up our borders to allow all these immigrants into our country and mow have ISIS terrorist here in Canada. Trudeau is the biggest terrorist in this country. We wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for Trudeau. He is the biggest liar. He put Canadians at risk. Since Trudeau got in the suicide rates have gone up and it's Trudeau who is at fault. We are fed up with what he has and continues to do and we are feeling completely lost with how we are going to get out of this mess. Canadians want an election for our prime minister. We want Trudeau gone. We don't have any faith in our government officials.

Imagine living in a country where your prime minister has no problem giving all our money away to terrorists. Or raising carbon tax to the point people can't pay their bills, lose their homes.. imagine having a prime minister who doesn't really care about canadians like he says he does because unlike canadians no everyone has a huge trust fund like he does to live as comfortable like he does with the punishment he lays on us.. it's gonna be tough on us.. NOT him

The Canadian prime minister cares more about US citizens than the US president does.

The fact the Canadian government knew it was coming and never went back to work for Canadians shows you how horrible the Canadian gov is. Now was the time to redeem a slice of integrity from our prime minister and he coward these last couple months, like he cowered to speak to truck drivers. What a joke he is

At this present time and in this current governmental climate, I do believe that changing a leader now would hurt Canada. Trudeau has first hand experience and has dealt with Trump and his tantrums, this isn’t Trudeau’s first rodeo. I am concerned with Trump antics another leader could be influenced with charm and falsehoods which Trudeau has already confidently stood up against.\nAnd for a moment, let’s think a little bit further out of the box. This isn’t about fentanyl as Prime minster Trudeau pointed out. This is about making life for Canadians extremely difficult and chaotic. It’s to bring division between the United States and Canada, and with Trump joking and jokes are not jokes sometimes they become reality Canada being a 51st state. Trump Being friends with Putin, with Russian ships in our Arctic Ocean think on this for a minute. Putin decided to invade Ukraine to expand his make believe empire. President Trump and Vladimir Putin working together. Hasn’t Trump said he wants Canada to be part of the USA and wants our Prime Minister to be a governor how insulting. How very insulting to the Canadian people who not just live in Canada, but are also united Canadians.

I fully support the Canadian prime Minister and Canadian people from New Zealand.

Trumps using tariffs to get your prime minister to do the right thing \n\nYou guys have forgotten that your prime minister is a dictator and has been using tariffs on the American people for a very long time. It’s only fair that trump does the same to stop this craziness. Do your guys is research and stop believing everything you see the media putting out. Trump is for Canadians. Praying you guys see the truth we love Canada!

Well done Prime Minister Trudeau …California here ….we are totally behind you …can we become a Canadian Province please …so glad you are not intimidated by the OHB!

As an American, I wish I was a Canadian at this time. I don't stand by the T admin... They are all insane. The Prime Minister's speech was so articulate, smart, and compassionate. He doesn't sound harsh but strong and confident. And not anti-American but empathizing with American citizens. Not sure why these CNN folks used those words.

Best speech ever from our Prime Minister! From a proud Canadian

I am a proud Canadian and love Canada. Prime minister spoke from his HEART to answer Trump.

That fact that the Prime Minister speaks of Canada as a whole and for all Canadians speaks volumes. Where Donald always speaks against our country not being one.

This was the best speech Prime Minister Trudeau ever gave, hands-down. As a Canadian, I pray for President Trump to come to his senses. May Canadians and Americans stick to our long and enduring friendship and not let politicians divide us. ✊️

OMG! Harsh language from the Canadian Prime Minister? We thought those Canadians were so polite! What a clueless CNN reporter. Are they getting their script directly from Trump/Musk?

As a 60 year old Canadian: Justin Trudeau is the WORST Prime Minister in our histor.

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau\nI am giving you a standing ovation!\nAs many of my fellow Americans are! We will always love our Canadian neighbors ?

As a Canadian we don’t support this corrupt prime minister who destroyed canada. He’s the reason we are getting punished. This spineless man is the reason people in canada suffer because he’s a terrible leader!
