I stand with Canadian people as well but Trudeau is a pile of shit dictator and has absolutely no regard or respect for his nationnor anyone else's. He inky cares for his $20k lunch in his private jet flying to his penthouse suite in NYC to talk to other dictator tyrants from NY. Sorry Canada but yall been using us for way too long and we're tired of it.

Pffffft, joke Trudeau politicking for votes. Liberals won't call a vote this is all intentional. He does not want what's best for Canadians. Vote for common sense, vote UCP.

The fact is!! As a Canadian! Trudeau is a trader not putin!! Trudeau wants to illegally supply all drugs to every ,,, Trudeau your mouth just runing off sh,t ,,reopen the permanent quite hideing like a COWARD

To be clear, this trudeau clown is a RESIGNED PM. He doesn't represent Canadians

No fan of Trudeau's liberal policies. But this is a coherent understandable speech that agrees with all sense of logic reasoning. Best wishes for the Canadian people from The Netherlands

Trudeau on cnn , what a propagandist asshole , LIBERAL GOUVERNEMENT TAKE CANADIANS IN OSTAGE

Prime Minister Trudeau has spoken clearly, with dignity and truth. I feel safe saying Canadians are in this for the long haul, until the clown and his circus are removed from the White House. Never underestimate the resolve of a pissed off Canadian. Elbows up. ??

Trudeau stepped back and humiliated himself at Mar-A- Lago; and then ,the Canadian government despises Mexico because instead of pursuing an alliance so as both countries can fight back,has chosen to be beside the US ,no matter what.

Trudeau, Americans LOVE YOU AND CANADA. Please accept my apology on behalf of America. Donald Trump is shameless and is an absolute moron. Godspeed to you and all phenomenal Canadians. Sending love! ??????

Trudeau does not speak for many Canadians.

Trudeau have stepdown , dont forget ! He dont représent CANADIANS ANYMORE

Trudeau harbors terrorists from India in his govt as his ministers terrorizing Canadians. WTF he is talking. Trudeau needs to be tried in ICJ for facilitating terrorism and intervention in foreign countries

As italian, I’ve been in Canada many time for business. Lets be honest trudeau it’s good only at speaking. You destroyed Canada with your immigration ideology. Trump is making his business, and don’t worry about usa, their economy will not be affected from the Canadian tariffs

Now he turns around and becomes a Canadian patriot for 9 1/2 years he’s beaten us with everything he could. Canadians don’t need Trudeau and his collaborators to tell us what it means to be a Canadian. We aren’t at war with America and yes Canadians are patient, civilized and tolerant as has been clearly demonstrated since 2015. Now call a federal election.

Bravo Trudeau and Canadians

Trudeau: “To my fellow Canadians. This, is going to be tough… For you. Not me, I’m rich ??? but WE (and by “we”, I mean you poor folks) will get through this together, and that’s just a risk I’m willing to take.”

Trump is causing such a stir, Canadians are agreeing with Trudeau!

Hey CNN - Trudeau does NOT speak for Canadians! He is a traitor that works for a private corporation called the WEF which is owned by the white supremacy Schwab family.

I can make it make sense. Trudeau clearly wants to destroy this country. He is with the WEF. He has stolen from Canadian taxpayers. Let our borders be unprotected. I can go on and on, but will finish with this, he funds CNN and other news stations. People need to wake up and research!

Trudeau is lying, thief and liar. Canadians don’t like him. Is he carrying a mirror? He loves himself. You ate a liar. You bankrupted Canada. I have a lot of relatives there throughout Canada. You were told by millions of Canadians to step down. \nWe Americans have zero respect for Trudeau. Trudeau loves attention! Go sit down, asshole. God bless our President Trump! \nYour border is better because of President Trump, you moron!\nYou are lying. \nYou are a butt kisser, Trudeau… you are taking credit for President Trumps accomplishments. What a clown. But then you are right up CNNs alley. \nYour lies are incredible. \nLie after lie after lie. You could care less about Canadians! Trudeau is a LIAR. This is my opinion based on fact.

lol. Didn’t Trudeau just step down cause Canadians hate him so much & he ruined the country? ? This outrage at Trump is all manufactured. The only people mad are the elites losing power & their shadow puppets. lol. CNN needs ratings.

I appreciate Trudeau standing up for you Canadians. I also heard the lady standing next to Trudeau speak and she is a strong leader too. I stand with you Canadians as neither of us asked for this but we are who are going to pay for trump's bad business practices...

Trudeau is a snake. Trump's requests were simple; secure your borders to stop illegals and fentanyl from entering our country. \n\nYou refused. So now you get reciprocity. This isn't going to affect us in the US anywhere near as bad as it will affect Canadians. Trudeau's unwillingness to do what's right will come back to bite him in the ass.

Trudeau has not been a good Prime Minister. He took the Liberal Party (historically a centrist party) further left, wasted billions of dollars during Covid and put punishing carbon taxes on Canadian citizens. Having said that, this IS his finest hour and he and most of the provincial Premiers have shown a solidarity and strength that will prove to the US that their northern neighbour is not the pushover they thought they were. It's up to the American people to rectify this situation.

This clown should be in jail, not talking for Canadians. You resign Trudeau!!! Leave Canada alone!!!\nCall an election!!!\nEveryone there with him should be in jail not talking for Canadians, they are the cause we’re in this situation!!

What's crazy is I think Trudeau is a shit politician but held against Trump he looks like George fucking Washington. \n\nI love my Canadian friends, and don't blame Canada at all for the response. Fuck maga!

Proud to be Canadian, Trudeau was so good, hope Americans are listening

The US needs nothing from Canada. They produce Canola oil (poison) and tainted wheat. We don't need it. Love Canadians. Love Canada. But recognize that Trudeau is evil. After all....he pushed the poison shots onto his people. He is evil. He should not be in power.

You never talk about 200,000 deficit Trudeau, if you want American people understand about you, US has been feeding Canadian forever Trudeau, and you also called trump dumb and In this case to be fair I don't think you are smarter then trump at all

Trudeau has the nerve to say that the US-Canadian border is safe and secure. But in Paliament he regularly complains about illegal items flowing over that same safe and secure border. You cant have it both ways Prime Minister. \n\nAlso, fentanyl has legitimate medical uses. So saying that you are going to wipe Fentanyl from the face of the earth is odd.

Canadians better be careful who they elect after Justin Trudeau leaves They might end up with a Trumplike person governing their country too I pray for the Canadians Americans love you

This is not a blistering speech. Trudeau just increased the tariffs on Canadian exports from 25% to 50% with his retaliation

As a Trump supporter and a Trudeau detractor, it is becoming more obvious to me that this threat of tariffs has become Trumps way of bullying Canadians into becoming the 51st state. I also believe at the same time, Trudeau has finally grown a set of balls because he is on his way out. That being said, my respect for “Donald” is falling off. I have not lost respect for the American people but I have for current American policies…

Trudeau for davios european union he isnt for Canadians or america \nSee how your tariffs work lol then all the money he gave to ulkraine he will blame trump ?

Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau, my heart is filled with such adoration. Spoken so concise and eloquently as a leader, yet remaining respectful. Thank you for standing up for our soverenty as an independent nation (not a 51st state) and us as Canadians will stand together with you through this unnecessary tumultuous storm. Again, we thank you ?? ? ? ❤️

Canadian here.. 25% tariffs is destroying our economy? How about the 900% deficit that Trudeau has made in his 9 years on office. \nThis is an insult to the Canadian people, and this man is not our friend.

Canadians are polite, but Canadian leaders Trudeau & Freeland are NOT! Based on how they treated truckers & their supporters, they are vile, evil globalist!?

As a Canadian it's hard to decide who do I despise more: Trump or Trudeau!

That P.C. should’ve resigned\nNobody would have a problem, tariffs just because of him (Trudeau) is the dictator!!!\nLook what he done to his people during the Covid and he want to lecture us Americans. I can live with 25% tariffs.\nI feel bad for Canadians, not their government. There is no democracy.

Trudeau needs to cut all lithium to the States, that will hurt his puppet Musk. This isn’t what Trudeau or the world wants, but this is Donald Trump that has no reasoning.\nI live in the Uk and have respect for the Canadian prime minister.

Well said PM Trudeau ??Canadians are fighters and will not put up with any sh!t from a crooked criminal kleptocratic dictator who has no idea what it takes to be POTUS ??

Thank you Mr Trudeau. You make me so proud to be a Canadian

very sensible and nice leader. Canadian should be proud having Trudeau

Must be nice for Canadians to have a strong intelligent leader like Trudeau. We now have Trump .. again (WTF). Guess we know which direction the United States is going. Very sad situation.

Real Canadian here, born and raised in BC since the 80s, served in the 39 signal regiment. Make no mistake, Trudeau dug our grave, lowered our coffin. Trump only hammered the last nail.

I’ll say first that I’m a Canadian…\n\nTrudeau and his government has been in power almost 10years and in that time Canada has gotten progressively worse—the drug crisis; immigration; inflation etc etc. I find it shameful that it took a foreign leader (Trump) to ignite changes within my country. Are the tariffs fair to Canada? No, absolutely not but Trump is not the president of Canada—right, wrong or indifferent he’s looking out for the US. \n\nJustin Trudeau is a corrupt lame duck prime minister who technically resigned a month ago. \n\nTrump will listen to Canada and respect Canada when a new government is place

Very strong and superb speech of Trudeau. Speaking like a true leader not like trump, who speaks like a person who is going through mental disorder and a puppet of Elon, who unfortunately holds a Canadian citizenship. Trump,Elon and Vance are the new Hitler working putin

I dont follow canadian politics. (Us politics either)... I hate trump. His administration maga. Hes a racist and a bigot and ignorant and dumb as a stick. \n\nNot sure why Justin Trudeau is so disliked. \n\nHe serms reasonable to me. Id stand behind Trudeau before i stood with trump. \n\nFDJT

As a 60 years old french Canadian I have all the reason to not love Trudeau, because he remind me how his father treated us, never vote for him, but today I saw a men (finally) standing up and take the lead for our country. Yes Canada is still my country and I like the way he directly adress to your president. I have so many American friends on both side( D and R ) and I hope they understand that what he said is not directly apply to United State citizen, wake up America before it s to late.

I am proud to be a Canadian with Trudeau at the helm at this difficult time.
