I fucking love you, Canada. So refreshing to see a well-spoken and rational president on that side of the Atlantic Ocean.

We don't need you, Canada. We prefer to do business with the great President Vladimir

Is it a trade war? President Trump says it is not. We have to determine wisely that it is or not. A trade war is always harmful and impacts all over globe. It is harmful for us the people of this country as well.

American here. So sorry for the way Canada has been treated by our so called President and his administration who are trying to destroy our country and our reputation across the globe. We do not agree with what he is doing, understand that we don’t agree. Hopefully we can get our relations across the world back to the way it was. SOON MY FRIENDS SOON

Thank you Justin for telling the truth! So refreshing. Thank you for thinking of us and understanding what our President is doing.

Please, annex our democratic states into Canada so you can be our President. ❤Canada Ukraine

Wish he was our president!That's what an intelligent articulate leader sounds like.Trump demonstrates his total lack of intelligence and lack of understanding of basic economics. Tariffs only hurt consumers.Canadians deserve better.

President Trump and VP Vance are well aware of the steps they are taking

Love Canada! As an American, I am totally ashamed who we picked as our president. And this is just the beginning.

Dear prime Minister Trudeau, As an American, I sincerely apologize that we have such an idiotic president.

*US House Speaker Representative must be the next President soon to reduce the chaos in this world* , while it's not too late

U r not polite and u r not a good president either! Just quit

Can someone please telll the Canadians we dont agree with our president

Trudeau is Right in everything he said Except one item .. Donald is Not Smart, If we had a President as Smart as Trudeau in America well you know what the results would be.

Our president is crazy ..

The 23rd Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudea will go down in history as the guy who stood up to the felon and sex offender Donald Trump. The so called 47th President of the United(?) States of Mid-America. Trumps playing Whack-a-Mole with his closest neighbours and European Allies. They aren’t going to forget what he’s and his supporters are doing.

America got one big madness President at the White House. We believe he already open the Bank of America to receive 25 percent from Canada ?? , 25 percent from Mexico ?? and another 10 percent from China ??. These tariffs (taxes) are for US government work? Trump is that Federal government himself. Gurrentee the prices will go up .Trump does care about the poor but himself. This is very bad for partnership with Canada? Trau speak the truth

“President” Trump is a malignant narcissist and is a scourge on society. Why can’t the citizens of this country figure that out?! Boggles the mind.

Makes me wish we had a President like Prime Minister Justin Trudea!

One specific American ‘Donald’ ?How patronizing can you get President Trudeau.He sounds all big calling President Trump ‘Donald’. How fake he is , I bet he stood for hours infront of the mirror practice that delivery ?.. Let’s see how this disrespect works for him. Same as it worked for Zelensky .. He’ll be ordering humble pie after that. TRUMP won’t be mocked.

Baltimore Stands With Everyone, Except President Tramp And Putang. Baltimore Stands With Canada. Slava Ukraine ??

Why have the former U.S. presidents been quiet about all of this?

Canadian, be proud of your Prime Minister! Comparing to your neighbors who voted for a clown as president.

NO! Mister Prime Minister, Our President said no.

I am an American, I and my husband are sickened about what our President has done. WE love love Canada. Sorry So Sorry.

Now this is what an intelligent president look and sound like. Mr. Trudeau may I please be granted residency in Canada until this mess is over? Please and thank you.

I'm so jealous! Why can't the prime minister be our president. We are stuck with a criminal idiot.

That is exactly what kind of president we need for our country,

We are doing everything we can to get this rougue president out of here. HE IS NOT OUR PRESIDENT!

So sorry we have a stupid president.

I'm American...I love Canada! I have many friends there ! Thank you for standing up for Canada and actually for standing up for innocent Americans like me who never voted for this monster we have now as a president! I'm 50 and I've never ever seen anyone like the administration we have now ! My parents and my grandparents would be ashamed of Donald Trump especially my grandfather who was a world War 2 vet who received a purple heart award ! Shame on you Donald

You are so justified. Most Americans are embarrassed and furious with the behavior of our newly elected president. Canada, you are my friend.

The Canadian president’s approach to this situation seems highly immature, especially by pressuring the U.S. to contribute even more funds to this war. Forcing a 25% price increase on the American people is not just irresponsible—it feels outright malicious. This kind of leadership doesn’t serve the people; it only fuels further economic strain. Truly disappointing

We don’t want it either! We all admire Canada—thank YOU for standing up to that bloated orange sad excuse of a “president” we have.

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am sorry President Trump's irresponsible ideas and choices affect so many negatively which includes you and your Canadians, and me and my Americans, as well as so many other. He should be ashamed of himself, but we all know that a narcissist feels only joy in hurting others. I worry every day, not just for the people of the United States of America, but also for all people around the world affected by this horrible man. I stand up and speak up with the hope that it makes a difference. Those I know are doing the same. I have heard so many republicans that voted for Trump, so very sorry now that they did. His irrational behavior is worthy of impeachment. Your speech, Prime Minister Trudeau, was honest and sincere and I appreciate your being so candid. I wish President Trump and Vice President Vance had the character you have. Best Wishes to you and the People of Canada, we have been friends for a long time and I would love to continue this friendship. Remember there are Americans here that appreciate you and your country.

We applaud you for doing the right thing!!! Trump is a bully and a convicted criminal who is the WORST PRESIDENT WE HAVE EVER HAD!!! \nThank you for standing up for the people!!!!!

Trudeau stop saying the American people Trump is not the democratic president stop saying American people. Just say Trump. Most Americans don't approve. Trump tariffs not the American tariffs. Not our government it's Trump.

I’m sorry neighbor. Trump is not my president. And I am very sorry that there are a lot of us who have been brainwashed into supporting our current administration. Maybe the sting of an even emptier wallet will start to wake them up.

It's ok for other countries to stand up for themselves but obviously its not ok for the United States to stand up themselves. The fact is that these countries have been taking advantage of the United States for so long that they feel entitled and are upset that our president is putting America first

As an American in California who had a family cottage in beautiful Ontario for 12 years and was welcomed by so many Canadian friends I am appalled by the American president who is a traitor. I support Canada 100% and will do everything possible to support you in this economic war with this corrupt administration.

Damn, we used to have presidents that can articulate like this as well… but, now… all I hear from Donald is tremendous, billions, millions, great, stupid etc

Make Canada 51st state. Trudeau for US president

We would all be so much better off with someone like Trudeau as US President.

Prime Minister Trudeau, thank you for showing the world how a true gentleman and leader talks to the leaders of another country in spite of the irrational, immoral and turncoat actions from a former Ally; our (?) new MAGA President Donald Trump. It's so surreal that this narcissistic, psychopathic person actually won the Presidential election (again). All I can say is I am sorry, embarrassed, and ashamed of my broken country's politicians in Washington, D.C. at present. Many more Americans support the democratic policies than the anti-democratic that Trump's regime is spouting all around the world. Just know this isn't what most Americans believe and we don't support his thoughts and actions. We are trapped in this nightmare that makes no sense. We hope this is just a temporary change. These new policies benefit no one but the oligarchs of America (and world). I guess we are just going to have to take our punishment for the few years for not being able to prove that these people in Washington care NOTHING for anyone, including their own constituent, and are hell bent on taking down and destroying our American, Democratic way of life and we, the people, are helpless to stopping it dissolve and crumble. Thank you Canada for always being such great neighbors. Good luck, peace out!

Dont mess with the U S ,most Americans stand with president Trump. Kick rocks Trudeau

Well done Canada I'm sure Americans are very ashamed of our disgusting President. Please forgive this evil man and know we are on your side. Our best to your people.
