Who allowed GOVERNOR Trudeau to speak??? #CNN is again trying to influence the elections in the 51st state #Canada!

This clown doesn't share 99% of candians views. And shouldn't be speaking for us. Get lost truedope

Speaking into the cameras direct to trump is a waste of time I’m afraid , trump is sitting in front of his burner phone waiting for the love of his life to call and tell him he did good and receive his next instructions .

What’s up with these other world leaders trying to speak directly to American people, we voted for him, talk to your own people

This is why CNN should fail. Instead of finding someone who speaks French to interpret what Trudeau is saying they have morons telling us this isn't good. So boring. So worthless.

Now this is how one should \n speaks.

Trudeau is a clown. He's not speaking to Biden.

Wicked Trudeau should not be allowed to speak

He's speaking to the U.S. that's us! Everything Trump and his partner does will affect us for generations. U.S.=us ?

I also love when he speaks directly to trump and just calls him Donald. You know that will hurt trumps little ego.

anyone that doesnt think shit gets worse before it gets better is delusional. weve kicked the can down the road for decades and now were at a breaking point. Tarrifs are mad toi bring companies back to america making our country more self sufficient and not so reliant on everyone else which will strenghten us. TSMC has already made a deal to start manufacturing chips here which control everything we know and china could stop that at any moment. Honda is coming here as well. All in all almost one trillion has been committed to invest in the us and this is a huge win for the long run. Alot of these countries have had tarriffs on us for ages and the people speaking out against it is because its hurting their pockets. The long run this is mandatory and we should have never let manufacturing go in the first place.

Once again an example for the whole world. I wish european leaders would speak like this.

???. Did Trudope just label Putin exactly what he is, a murderous dictator? ???\nTalk about blind stupidity….Remember the emergencies Act? The court has found that to be the largest violation of rights in Canada in decades\nTrudeau shouldn’t even be speaking seeing he has been voted out by his own party, is facing criminal charges (that will never happen) and is a predator (West Point Grey incident). Liberalism is a mental illness that convinces the patient they are living in the imaginary world of unicorn and rainbows, not reality

I love the simple language he uses when speaking to trump directly in contrast to speaking to anybody else ?❤

This wont work, Trudeau is speaking English, trump only speaks Russian

????? A CLOWN FROM CANADA SPEAKS ON A CIRCUS NEWS CHANNEL BRINGS MODERN ENTERTAINMENT??? WAY TO GO CNN??

I can confidently say as a Canadian, what Trump has done and continues to do is driving the biggest wedge between Canada and the USA. The jokes of Canada becoming a 51st state is outrageous and i speak for many fellow Canadians when saying - WE WILL DIE AS CANADIANS before bending the knee to America. This is exactly what Russia wants and the only true winner from this will be the countries praying on Canada and the US's downfall.

A leader who can speak with good articulation and respect. USA take note.

Dont listen to this coke head. Didn’t he resign. Don’t speak for us. America strong!!

Why did you cut away when the PM was speaking French? Can't you just interpret? He is still speaking to everyone.

Mr. Soy boy speaking. I can see why his wife left him.

Not my president. Remember, chump doesn’t speak for all Americans!

Sorry but Trudeau doesn't speak for this Canadian all B,S. To me after working for 44 years and he giving taxpayer money away to people who didn't pay a dime in Canada getting more then me sad help ok but not giving it away for nothing and then trying to change our ways

This clown does not speak for Canada....he has done far worse damage than any tariffs can do to us.

Why is this dude speaking to Americans ? Run your own damn country lol you’re about to go into a depression ?

Unlike Trump, he can speak in coherent sentences. What a relief, this is much easier to listen to than the rambling rants of his US counterpart.

Florida born, America in my veins.\nI stand with Canada and anyone who speaks truth to the vile shit our government is doing.

Trudeau does not have a mandate. He does not speak for Canadians. Trudeau and Singn are traitors to Canada.

This is how to speak to a child. Well done

Of course it's CNN. Trudeau, you do not represent Canadians. You have destroyed Canada and only now because of Trump you are dealing with the horrid fentanyl problem that is killing our communities. You have not fixed our health care system nor our political system. YOU NEED TO JUST GO, STOP YOUR EGO DRIVEN LAST GASP AT LEADERSHIP. You prorogued our own government, basically shut down debate and decision making in Canada while you parade yourself around the global world. NOW YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT CANADA FIRST, when a short two months ago you were pushing Canada for the past 9 years as a post national state. You are posturing and have no credibility in Canada or globally. YOU DID NOT WORK WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU CAME UP WITH NO PLAN BASED ON WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE U.S. YOU JUST WANT TO PREEN AND SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA AND SKIRT AROUND RESPECTFUL NEGOTIATIONS WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP BECAUSE YOU ARE MANIPULATING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. Just take that walk Trudeau and be gone, you have 3 more days and then we do not want to see you again.

Well said Mr. Trudeau. I come from Germany and would like to support Canada. An appeal to the German government: import more Canadian products.\n\nOh, and by the way: how many languages ​​does Mr. Trump actually speak?

Speak the truth !! Thank you!

Not sure if fellow Americans who supported Trump understand that you must return the Senate and the House of common majorities back to Dems to override Trumps policies and impeach a bunch of officials who have no clue to speak against what Trump is doing

The dialog between Canada and the US need to come together for a global solution to peace, prosperity and security. Everything is about transactions with this guy. \nThese tarrifs are obviously temporary and Canada needs to speak to Trump on Global issues and yes they need our inports, their cost of food is outrageous. He knows he needs the \nUS more than we need Canada. He could have put more security on the borders a long time ago but refused.\nHe will be done soon and he should have been more willing to stop the drugs and ended his term on a better note with solutions. Canada cant wait for him to step down. There were many more solutions he could have offered instead of coming off as a jerk. \nBuy USA products! We have to stop this dependence on other countries! The green deal is done..we dont need their trees.

Thank you all in the comments for supporting Canada (and Ukraine). You are speaking up for the truth and for all our countries as partners and speaking out against the tyranny that is DJT and Putin. \nTogether we will prevail as friends and neighbours.

Truedope DOES NOT SPEAK FOR CANADA OR CANADIANS. Truedope quit ... get him the phuck out !!! VOTE FOR THE STRONG CONSERVATIVES TO SAVE ??

PM Trudeau does not speak for Canadian, he's just an acting pm, he stepped down due to his disgusting corruption and he does NOT have the knowledge and clueless when it comes to Tarrif. He was a dumb Drama teacher and a pot head before he became our PM. SHUT UP TRUDEAU, STOP TRYING TO INFLICT AS MUCH DAMAGE BEFORE YOUR REPLACEMENT TAKE OVER AS PM.

Thus a real leader speaks!

I thought Trudeau resigned\nWhy is he still speaking on behalf of us

now when trump tries to speak tonight you will see how a diaper wearing low i q toddler sounds like compared to an educated well spoken intelligent leader like Justin.

The guy speaking is also a drug dealer he mad there going to cut in his personal money

Speak slower when you talk to him so that his small brain can process it.

How rude to interrupt while justin speaking french!

My president does not speak for me, or a lot of us Americans. I stand by Canadians, Ya'll our closet allies and fiends. \nOur president is hurting us an our best neighbor, its just sad

It is so amusing that bots have been employed in full force to ensure all the comments are giving a shoulder to the PM to cry on. He at least finds himself useful after attacking mindlessly countries in the world whose security he has no business endangering .\n\nPOTUS is doing what is best for his country and his steps are revolutionary and will cause some pain in the beginning but the population at large should exercise patience and understand he is the only who can get them out of the abyss and also ensure all the people exploiting Usa for their wealth and support don’t do so \n\nPeople have been using USA to their advantage and here is a man who makes sense with his strategy \n\nThis PM speaks as if his tariffs are going to shake up supplies to USA \nHe seems to be living in a dream . Anyway he is going to be out soon \n\nAmericans hang out with POtUs . He is tough less tactful and polite but he means business

Why is this criminal still speaking for Canada?

Donny Dump can only hope to ever speak as clearly and succinctly as Trudeau

I am American and this president does not speak for me ?

I ❤Canada! Trudeau speaks the truth and shows compassion for his own people as well as for the American people. I have never felt so ashamed to be an American.

Thank God someone has the courage to speak out against Trump. Someone in the administration needs to take the bull by the horns and speak out against him in no uncertain terms over the long haul.
