To my fellow Americans, if you voted for Donald Trump i hope you do not get a single second of financial peace until he is out of office

I'm an American. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, and the free world - NOT Donald, Elon, and their MAGA-brainwashed death cult ruining my country and making our world worse.

Anybody notice how when addressing Donald, he spoke much slower and at a lower grade level ? he knows

Very good speech by Trudeau except for one comment. He said Donald is a smart man. I'm sure he was just being polite. Donald Trump is not a smart man. He is an idiot. Plus he's crazy and sadistic and evil, and he suffers from dementia. The cult of Trump is a death cult.

President Trump and you need to work it all out. As far as blanket tariffs go, I do agree that your goods and services, including tariffs should be mutually broken down to create benefits for all. Part of my lineage is from Quebec, and here USA. We all need to help each other. Laser focus to arrest and put in prison all drug terrorists should be everyone's focus. The wars elsewhere are sidetracking the two of you from standing side by side with one another, as you mention you usually do. Two friends, two parallel united goals, yet I do agree, again, that you said an enemy would rather divide you two than to see you both Triumph over evil! So PM Trudeau, get on the phone with President Donald, and the two of you tackle it out, include a .PPT write-up with solutions that both of you know is good overall, both instant, immediate and longer term. May God's Holy Hands be upon you and surround you, with the love of my Savior, Christ Jesus! Thank you! I love you all.

No, not harsh language. Donald is a nut job and you people need to quit kissing his ass.

Not even canadian but damn what a speech, I've heard that some of his domestic policies are not very popular but the way he asserts himself against Donald Dipshit is admirable

Canadian Trucker here and I stand with Donald J Trump. Canadians hate Trud and he’s already stepped down this man is soon to be irrelevant.

It's quite refreshing listening to a speech given by a head of state that isn't Donald. It's the contrast of truth and facts from one and lies and personal childish attacks from the other.

Don't talk to me, talk to my President. President Donald J. Trump.

0:20 This will hurt Donald's ears. He can't stand hearing bad words about Poutine the other imperialist.

Bravo, Mr. Trudeau, hat off. Let's hope Donald finally understands that the Sun does not orbit around his belly button. He'd better play dominoes in an old folks' home than mess everyone's lifes. What a failed human being.

Can someone please explain to me in what possible sense Donald can be described as “smart”?

We need to stop giving Canada 2 trillion a year we get nothing out of it. Stop giving him that and we can solve our own problems about trade. Donald Trump is smart. Don’t fool yourselves we’re gonna make out in the long run.

That thing he said that Donald trump are smart ....was wrong?

Thanks for your love, Canadian immigrant here??????I hope everyone stands up to Donald and his cronies. Bad men wins when good men stays quiet.??????

“DONALD!” Thank you Justin!??

I’m an American and I did not vote for Donald Trump. I am all for Canada and Ukraine. \nTrump has to be removed from the White House immediately. He is Adolf Hitler wanna be.

Canada has known for decades that we have put too many eggs in one basket - selling our resources primarily to the USA. We've had tariffs before and worked with them. Yet we still keep selling to the USA. This time is different. In conjunction with the tariffs, we have an American administration that is flat out insulting Canada. Saying we wouldn't exist economically if it wasn't for the USA. It's at a time when the USA won't promise not to use military force to annex land (Greenland) from a decades old ally. A time when clearly Putin is calling in his chips for whatever he has over Donald Trump. Canadians have had enough. We are directing our governments, provincial and federal, to finally, finally break from the north-south trade links. We need to establish stronger east-west trade links. The resources we have are wanted by many countries if the USA does not want them. It does mean much work within Canada. We need to get our AB-BC pipeline finished as well as the new sea terminal so we can ship our crude oil and natural gas to Japan and if need be, to China. We finally need to get out pipeline to the Atlantic coast finished so we can supply the UK and EU with our products. We need to double our rail capacity for shipping potash, uranium, rare minerals to Asia or Europe. Just as Trump hopes for a golden age of American companies coming home and building new plants in the USA, this will be a golden decade for Canada to create transportation corridors to get our resources to other buyers. America will have to look elsewhere for his raw materials. And we all know what that is - RUSSIA. They've already offered their rare minerals and crude oil. This is all clearly a well thought out scenario from the people working behind Trump to dismiss America's allies and trading partners - have us turn against the USA - as the excuse to open the door to Russian imports into the USA.

I will never understand how so many Americans thought it was a good idea to vote for someone who’s clearly stupid and who lies about practically everything. How? The whole world watched this horror show and knew exactly what was happening. \nI will never understand how anyone can trust a narcissistic idiot like Donald. This pathetic excuse of a man makes me sick. ?

I’m an American and I support Ukraine, Canada, Mexico and all our allies, I do not support Donald Trump.

What the hell is Putin blackmailing Donald Trump with? \nHe's a damn puppet

The only thing I disagree with Prime Minister Trudeau is that the Donald is dumb. Period.

He called him “Donald” twice he real hates him lol !!!!

if i was to take a wild guess, probably more drugs to canada from us. than other way around. bu donald does putins dirty work.

At least Donald can not accuse Justin that he is not wearing a suit and hopefully would listen what Canadian PM has to say !

He called him Donald lol

Donald a smart guy LOL

Donald thinks he is running a business with profit and loss. Does he reliaze that by increasing Tariffs he is hurting Americans? Eventually, Canada will find other markets to sell their products.

Please did I just hear him say Donald you are a smart guy? WFT ??

Make America great again, huh? I can’t believe people believe that slogan.. it’s more like make America hurt again. We are all going to suffer because of Donald Duck.

Today, we realize how silly and dumb you are, just like your counterpart, Donald Trump, Justin Trudeau. . Do you think you’re better than Trump? I’m not a Trump supporter, but you’re not in a better situation.

Writing from France, I agree with all these comments. We Stand with Canada, Europe and Ukraine. Donald Trump has to be under Putin's thumb. Putin pulls the strings.

I mean the way you have to talk to the Donald's ego. 'You are very smart'.

Canada responded with positive processes and donald still applied tariffs. This shows his motivation and his truth.

Where are the DUMB supporters of Donald? Do you think, your President care about you?

Why did Trudeau say he's been working with Donald Trump for 8 years??? Trump has not been President for 8 years.

When he called him Donald, I screamed ???

It’s PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP To You Justin ?? ??

Donald is not a smart guy , he’s a bankrupt con artist

Someone said Donald Trump is a very smart guy? Oh lord, that’s rich.

Donald just wants to fill his own pockets with money while the Americans will pay the price

Wow. Amazing speech. Dump Donald IMMEDIATLY.... this madness has to stop.

Sorry Canada. But Donald's not interested in fact. It's theater. He has no idea how tariffs work.

Correction: President Donald Trump to you Canadian!

Unfortunately you have a real estate developer running the USA, so Greenland can be purchased, Gaza can become a riviera, Gulf of Mexico can be renamed, Ukraine can be arm twisted into handing over its minerals and Canada can become the 51st state so that it can be plundered of all its land and resources. Donald thinks he is intelligent and everyone else is stupid.

Hey Donald Trump just in case you missed it you are One of the most hated people on the planet. You are the definition of Pathetic human being . You care for only for two things yourself and money . Karma's coming for you and all the glass in the world wont be able to save you from her . Good luck with that .

Love how he directs his people, with the truth and express his support for then.? haven't heard Donald say nothing similar Uffff ! ?‍♀️

Donald is hurting America!

@ Donald Trump I think you owe these guys a huge apology!
