Nice work ? and well spoken! I support everything you and Canada stand for! Dump the trump!

This is what happens when you have a compromised leader the way the U.S. does. He is doing Putin's bidding because Putin owns him. Putin has Trump destroying relationships with neighbors, destroying relationships with NATO, and destroying the very government he works for. The Russians couldn't do better if a KGB agent infiltrated the White House. Then again maybe one did.

Canada needs to work with Mexico , Ukraine, and other countries that Stupid Donald Trump is screwing over

why hate on your neighbor and your closest ally. dang. Mr. Trump is losing his mind all over again. U.S and Canada should be working together.

It was not America. It was Trump and his gang. They must be stopped. Unfortunately, we are going to be hurt. Bad. \nGet ready to pay for a quarter pound of flower for a full day of work. ?

Trump works for the Dictators and the rich. The US government doesnt care about their people at all. Yet they vote it all in. Makes me super sad, because the US citizens are so vulnerable and uncared for. Sure he will paint a different picture. Open your eyes, see what is happening, hear what is happening. Your Government is harming your Nation.

Trump is a Dump for Putin. He is Putin's --- kisser. It's so sad. Billionaires first, working class people are just puppets.

As an American, I am ashamed of our president. I apologize to the Canadian people and want them to know that the vast majority of Americans do not support what our president is doing. We will do what we can to stop him, and I hope when this insanity is over, you can forgive us and we can restore our relationship. We know that because of Donald Trump's stupid actions, we will have a lot of work to do in restoring your trust in us. Again, I apologize.

I believe that once we get everything on line, we can weather out the storm. What does Canada have that we don't have? All we want is a fair deal. We have endured the burden of ensuring the safety and economic development of our allies. They have all benefitted, and it is time for them to offer some relief while Trump works on our problems back home.

If we are going to be an authoritarian, antidemocratic, fascist dictatorship, we have to shed our old friends who would get all judgy about the the human rights abuses. So, step one, destroy relationships with friends. Step two, buddy up to Putin and other dictatorships who will be glad to trade and associate with us even if we do run concentration camps or whatever.\nOr Trump is sucking Putin's butt again for mysterious reasons. He likes it so much, like a drug addict, he is willing to lose everything . If it were just a matter of his individual tastes, I don't get it, but none of my business. Except by dragging the whole country down for his kink, it is out business. So, I think we should cut Trump lose to go to Russia and run around on his knees chasing Putin as much as he likes. Meanwhile, we need a president and I can only say F-no to Vance and I don't know how many other dictator butt goblins in the line of succession, so, since Trudeau is going to be looking for work, lets make and exception and hire him for president. I'd much rather have one with a pro-Canada bias than one one who seems to think he is Putin's Elon Musk.

CNN, why don’t you say openly that trump is an uneducated fool who does not know what he doing as president or how this world functions. And equally uneducated fools like Vance and Musk are not knowing how a country work let alone a big country like USA.

There it is which government can screw up their country. The fastest Trump has done more good Trudeau is making businesses not be able to continue working. Reduce how many the businesses work for us and increasing the price of everything

Trump. He’s working with the Russian. Was all set up. He told vlad to invade

I know i am probably in the minority here but, the threat of tariffs worked. Cad is acting to avoid these tariffs! So let's see if trump removes them. If he does, america wins.

Putin despises Canada. Canada has the largest Ukrainian diaspora in the world. Canada supports Ukraine. Trump works for Putin. Buckle up USA! You were warned.

China has imposed a 25% tariff on the USA, which will have consequences due to Trump's aggressive moves. He thinks governing is like running a business, but the world doesn't work that way. Trump is not helping the USA but will make life more complex, and a few years later, Americans will realize.

I think it is time to use all the unused land to grow our vegetation and any thing else that gets planted to use for the Canadian. We do have the brain and the finances to grow our own fruit even if it takes a couple of years for the plants to produce the vegetation to supply the need. We need to manufacture our own goods. It is only one simple issue we will face but it is one we can handle! Oil, gas, car parts and cars...do it here and get some of the unemployed individuals Living on Provincial Checks off their butts and put them to work. (any that can at all} It might just surprise people at how many would have a reason to get up in the morning and the self confidence they need to get rid of the very thing Trump said was killing US people and stop it from coming in from the US! If we are going to tell it lets tell the truth!.

Make Trump Great and First is that all he cares about. WE don't want him in office along with his underboss Elon.They work like a mob gang.

It looks like the best thing Trudeau could do is tell the world how bad he is got beat by President Donald Trump. A true leader would not shocase his defeat to the world, he would work harder until he triumphs; none of which is somthing that Trudea can do. Sad!

I stand with America---trump is a business man and works with reason

Trump wants peace between Russia and Ukraine and Trudeau calls him a fan of Putin. ? Does he know how dipomasy works?! Apparently not.

I've had a boss like Trump and a boss like Trudeau. The first like Trump yelled, complained, and whined over the smallest problems. The team, including himself, were miserable all the time. The second like Trudeau made the hardest problems easy to manage. He led, was transparent, and prioritized solutions over blame. I'm currently working for the latter and it's been multiple years of success. No one from the first team stuck around to sink with the ship.

I work daily with trump supporters. They are dumb af

What happens when Trump is found guilty of working for Russia? Is that not treason?

Well said. I love the USA, I have relatives who live there and in all the years of a beautiful relationship with the people of America I have never seen this situation. Mr. Trump you seem to want to conquer and divide relationships at any cost, even with people who care about you. You sabotage yourself and those who are loyal to you. I'm not sure if you understand the implications of your decisions. But I will say respectfully, there are no winners in a trade war, nor is it you that has the final say on the worlds outcome. This is God's world not yours and not ours. I'm really disappointed to see American people and Canadians hurting because of whatever the point of all of this means. But Canada is strong and we will stand up for our country. The American people are strong and they were strong before you became the President. Working together, we can take care of each other for our families and our country.

Trump is a traitor working for Putin.\nAmericans need to get their house in order. They have a traitor in the White House.

These clowns are all working together to bring down the people. Don’t be so naive! The world’s a stage and behind the scenes Trudeau & Trump are having dinner in their mansions and laughing at us all.

what has your problems got to do with Russia.......? you should focus on Canada and your work with the US. Remember Trump is on the scene to help USA - not you.

Do you really think that Trump doesn’t understand that he is being “played” by Putin?? Seriously? Trump is working for Putin and gets paid to do this.

And to think...Trump still doesn't know how Tariffs work!

I voted for this. The economic fear mongering isn’t gonna work. Trump brought in 1.7 trillion dollars investment in 40 days. How much has Trudeau brought into Canada.

Okay, so US tariffs are bad and will cause financial trouble for both Americans and Canadians. Won’t Canadian Tariffs do the same thing? Furthermore, Canada will not win a Tariff war with the US. Canada’s response is not rational, nor is it in the best interest of the country. What about working with Trump to understand what it takes to remove all tariffs.

Very proud of our Prime Minister!!! The Trump administration is currently destroying America. Canadians and Americans have been working hand in hand for more than a century and it's so sad to see that a bunch of billionnaires are using lies and manipulation to get their way. I'm also very surprised to see that the Republican politicians are reacting like puppets. Let's hope that truth and common sense will soon prevail in the United States.

AHHHH Trudeau, other than moralizing Trump, you should work with him.

There are no winners in a trade war. True. Look at history. So sorry about this decision by Trump. This is a very clear speech. May the United States powers that be reconsider this current tariff and fentanyl issues. As an American citizen I wish to work with Canadians and your government. Generations of common goals and friendship need to be upheld. My wish is for reconciliation.

Looks like America will have more Anti American sentiments not just from the Middle East. watch out America, Trump is working for Putin and he will tear your country apart. MAGA supporters don’t have that level of intelligence to comprehend what’s about to happen.

It's hilarious they keep being flabbergasted about Trump doing things that their enemies want, because that's exactly who he is working for. He does not care about Americans or Canadians or anyone at all except his cronies and his group of Russian-led oligarchs, and making themselves all even richer than they already are off the backs of the working classes everywhere. He is working for the enemy, which is precisely why it looks for all the world like he's working for he enemy. Figure it out!

Trump and his toadies, plus bosses are all traitors working for Russia

As an American, how can I transfer my nursing license here in the States to Canada to work up there? I've never voted for Trump or Vance (or even, Elon). I work and volunteer and even participate in peaceful protests here in the States - I am ashamed of our felonious commander in whatever.

He is calling him Donald ... JT doesn't have the stature or the assertiveness to act that way. For one thing, he is still just too young. Mr. Trump is older and very experienced and very knowledgeable and quite insightful. So that makes a difference. Please don't try to overdo your presentation, it does not work.

Trump has worked for KGB since the 60s,

Trump is so damn dumb..never worked a day in his life smh

Trafis = taxes. Trump is rising taxes, causing inflation, recession. Trump is the greatest crook. USA has to stop Trump. Americans are the 1 st victim of trump. He is making himself, musk, zuckerberg and all the mega rich more rich.\nThe normal American will be working slave to the neo nazi trump regime. A convicted crook, cheated on every wife he got, a pirate, a bully without friends. He is a low life. Vance a guy with colored hair and eyeliner, looks all the time like is is being potty trained .\nTrump got no deal with Putin. Putin does not listen to trump. It is a bluff. Trump is as bad as Putin. He is only interested to exploid Ukraine. \nAmericans you have to fight your worst and \n# 1enemy = trump and his boot lickers = neo nazis. The longer you wait, the more american families, veterans, economy, jobs have to suffer. Trup has no respect for Great Britain. He only would have liked to get his hands on the late Queens juwels.

How’s he worked with Trump for over 8 years? Trump was President for only four! Interesting statement!

Why you didn’t before? Actions are working but all these could be avoided if you had made the efforts before Trump admin. It is your fault and failure what now is happening!

If it isn't obvious to everyone by now, it should be. Trump works for Putin, not for the people of the USA.

Mr President of Canada common Donald Trump know exactly what he's doing ‼️ he works for Russia he's here to destroy the United States and make it part of Russia or an ally of russia! And if America doesn't stand up he's going to succeed ‼️?????????????

Really over 50 percent vote for this. It would be funny if It's not so sad in the same time. For now, it will work for the USA, but the boomerang will fly back. Your Partner realize now finally that the US is not trustful anymore. They need a bit of time to prepare but if it's done, America is isolated (ok Russia and North Korea will still like you). The world continue rotating, with or without the USA. But maybe It's what the American wants so it's fine. But Trump's territorial claims are a shame. Regards from Germany.

I buy a lot from Canada. It’s True Trump doesn’t know how a tariff works. I’m already getting the emails that prices are going up from my distributors.

Why did Canadians dislike this guy so much before all this? Because some Russian trolls on social media disguised as Canadians told them to? That's how we got Trump! It seems like they learned from our mistake. I hope they did. Look, all over the world, things are tough, post pandemic. It's not just your country. You can be patient as left leaning leaders use data and expertise to get things running again...OR you can elect these far right NUTCASES, AND MAKE A MESS THAT IS IRREVERSIBLE! DON'T TRUST THE FAR RIGHT! YOU ARE NOT IN THEIR CLUB. THEY WORK FOR THEMSELVES AND THEMSELVES ONLY, AND WILL TELL YOU WHATEVER LIE YOU NEED TO HEAR TO GET INTO OFFICE.
