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?

Canada is safe because of America ?

F Canada ??

Canada!

Canada's president is much more presidential than ours and he makes a lot more sense he's a far better leader than Trump

Sorry to Canada.

I respect and stand with Canada ?? ? ? ? ? ? ??

Isn't trumps tariffs just matching canadas ?

As an American, Native Hawaiian here in Hawai’i and daughter of a USMC Colonel, I stand with Canada. ?? ✊?

❤ For Canada from Australia ❤

I’m an American as well. And I’m with Canada 10000% we the people in the US (most of us) stand with y’all. What the current administration is doing with this country is truly shameful. And I as an American apologize in behalf of our government. May god bless all of us.

Bravo Canada ? keep standing up to the bully. I will not be buying anything American until Trump is out, that's the least I can do to support the rest of the world against Trump, Putin, Elon and MAGA

Watching in Australia. Excellent speech, done with strength, class and compassion. ??. Standing with Ukraine and Canada.

Well said. What companies and products can we, as American consumers, buy from to show our support of Canada?

Sadly the plan for Russia ?? and China ?? it’s going well , Division among America's allies , Dividing America's allies and igniting hatred between them is what America's and Europe's enemies, China, Russia and North Korea, want. This is exactly what they want to eliminate America, which is America's isolation from its allies, Canada and Europe, for the success of the plan of China, Russia and North Korea, America is in danger, gentlemen. Making its allies like Canada and Europe abandon it will push America to confront Iran, China, Russia and North Korea alone. This is a hellish plan by China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. America is finished. Trump is a businessman, not a politician. We want to unite America's allies, not divide them. Trump will lead us Americans to hell.???????????????

I like Canada and I hope to be able to visit again in the future.

I am a combat veteran from afghanistan and iraq. \nWe fought alongside Canada in Afghanistan. They are our ally and our neighbors. \nThis is So0o0o Dumb.\nWhat has happened to our world.\nAdolf trumpler is at the controls.\nWhen reasonable people across the world are dumbfounded by Dumpie the knuckle, dragging mouth breathing Dumpster Fire.\nSorry, but you're wasting your time If you think you can reach Tre45on while he Eating his Big Macs and strokes putin under the table

This American stands with Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine. There's no other way to put it: our president is setting about to wreck our nation. He either doesn't know he's doing it -- or doesn't care. Either way, he's incompetent. And he's in bed with a horrible, violent dictator.

Russia has control of the White House. It's best that Canada, Europe, and any of the US' allies strengthen themselves because the US cannot be trusted

well looks like canada is gonna be US soon with no border HELL YA GO TRUMP!!!!

Y is this dumb still on that position?? I thought Canadian had enough of him. ? No, surprise that low iq immigrants who are refuted from US ends up in Canada.

Castros illegitimate child just said US tariffs will hurt Anericans... then this moron implements tariffs on US goods....guess what moron that will then hurt your people and economy ? libtard logic ...oh and hes on tje way out so we care what he says...yeah not at all ?...canada makes me laugh

2 things we don't want in Canada. The Liberal crooks and a trade war with the US. That man Trudeau ruined Canada more that Biden and Kamala did to the US.Trudeau supported fentanyl in Canada. Allowing users to commit crimes without legal consequence. Catch amd release when they commit home invasions stabbings break amd enter. Tax payer funded injection sites. Only changed his tune to please Trump.

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!

Has anybody ever even mentioned that border control happens at the country that you enter? There is no way for the Canadian government to control the flow of fentanyl when it's the US side that have the agents at the border. Why is this expected of Canada when it's the US agents that are in control of what comes in?

I apologize to Canada for anything DT says & does!!!\nJust please know that at least half of the US fo not agree with dt!

Trump is a king of cattle. Canada and brazil together ❤

I don't agree with what's going on, as a US citizen. We love you, Canada! ❤

As an American, First, I am embarrassed by our petulant child of a President who has NO IDEA what he is doing. Canada…despite what you hear, we love you. Our incompetent government is our biggest problem and I am truly sorry for The Worst President we have ever had and his idiocy toward you. He’s our National Embarrassment. Canada we love you. ❤ I truly wish Trudeau was our President! A true pro with class and decorum.

PROUD of my TRUE LEADER. ??? Long live Canada!!!

Not a fan of Trudeau, I was actually relieved that he resigned but man! Very well spoken man he is! Canada strong!

Canada needs a new leader. Trudeau will never beat Trump. Our president is the most powerful and influential human being on planet Earth, and Trudeau is like a leader in training, with no business acumen whatsoever. Canada cannot exist without American dollars circulating through it.

I'm with you Canada!!!!!! Brilliant speech.

Is he still the PM of Canada, I think he has resigned ????

Lots of emotional response here. I also feel that Canadians are our brothers and sisters of the USA. But removing the emotion, Canada isn't holding the cards. This nonsense will hurt Canada far more than the US.

We as Americans ❤ Canada!!! I hope Donald you rethink!!!

God bless Canada. USA please make it right. Thank you.

Canadian here ????????!! To any Americans reading this comment, my disgust over this whole tariff situation is not on the USA, it’s not Americans, IT’S TRUMP!!! Period!!! There is no doubt millions of you are very angry and embarrassed about what he wants to do. I want our 2 nations to be friends and allies forever. Any animosity between us is just extremely pointless. \n\nI want to thank the Americans who are wishing Canada and us Canadians the best and who are totally against what Trump wants to do!!!

Resist! The Democratic Party Depravity there on Epsteins list like Canadas media and American media.

They just threatened Greenland. They will invade Canada so you need to lock and load. Trump is nuts.?

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!

To the Canadian people: I will look out and specifically purchase Canadian goods over American goods as a sign of disagreement with the American President. Mr. Trump is only out for HIMSELF! Most Americans know this. I don't believe in conspiracy theories, but I'm starting to believe that Russia DID interfere with our election, and Trump is that result! I'm utterly DISGUSTED with what they're doing. I stand with UKRAINE ?? and with Canada ?? as well as all our Allies! We need to impeach that Maggat in the Oval!

Trudeau does not represent Canadians. He has had a minority government for years. Trudeau was finally forced to resign months ago. He should not be speaking on our behalf. He suspended parliament and refuses to call an election. No decision / agreement can be made re. Tariffs, etc. because technically we have no leadership right now. Tariffs have been threaten for months, and the Liberals have made no moves to do what’s right for Canada. He is using this as an opportunity to regqin power. He is not a man of the people.

We are canada ??

I’ve never been to Canada I’ve always wanted to go visit. I’m from CT in the USA born and raised here. I’m ashamed of our government rn we must be the laughing stock of every other nation for all the INSANE EXECUTIVE ORDERS ONE AFTER ANOTHER WITH NO REAL INTENTIONS OR PLANS THAT WILL IMPROVE ANYTHING FOR THE USA! All while “Selecting” billionaire elites into prominent positions of power & these ppl have no background knowledge or experience whatsoever for the positions that they’re being selected for!! The whole world has gotta be laughing at us in the USA because this is insanity over here now!!!

Sorry Canada we got stuck with the worst president of all time, Canada our ally, partner and great neighbor hast to deal with him. Hope this next 4 years will pass quick and our relationship go back as normal and friendly as before.

Thought he was resigning??? Must take a long time in Canada for a politician to actually resign

Find out what pain Canada has planned for the future tariffs. Unplugged, no oil, no metals and no wheat. Good luck shivering in the dark.

As an American, I stand with Canada. We have the biggest dumb ass bully as our president and it’s shameful. The people who voted for that orange turd can suffer. It’s so dumb to impose tariffs on our closest allies. Ordinary Americans will suffer because of this.

Please know that not all Americans back our felon in chief. I don't understand how he got back in office, but I'm proud of Canada for standing your ground. Don't give in to him!
