May God Bless Trudeau. A true leader. I am ashamed to be an American.

Michigander living in Louisiana (right now)—So embarrassed and ashamed of this country. Millions of us here in the US did NOT choose this administration—and we support Canada in its resistance, resilience, and continual rationality. I grew up very close to the Canadian border—should've moved up there when I had the chance. Open to Canadian marriage proposals! (Joking. (Sort of.))

I am from Alaska, and I stand with Canada. I am ashamed of our president.

America has completely lost its mind. This is the first year of my life where I am completely ashamed to be an American

We will have to remember in the future that half of us voted for this. To not have the, “It wasn’t me…?” reaction. Why would anyone ever trust us again? Over half of us voted for this, he talked about tariffs throughout his campaign. I am so ashamed. We are not great, we are sloppy, stupid and small minded.

We here in Detroit love Canada. We are ashamed of our president and his buddies, Putin and Musk. And we are so jealous of the Canadian leaders who actually speak like intelligent people and tell the truth. And why is Trump trying to blame our neighbors for our own citizens' drug abuse? Americans created the drug cartels, gave them all the money and all that power. .

We are Canada lovers in Washington state. So ashamed of the idiot in the White House--why can't we have a cool, smart leader like Trudeau? We'll be in BC later this month, then again in July, spending money, having fun! We stand with Canada!!!

I wish we had a leader such as Trudeau. I am so ashamed of my government right now.

I’m an American, but I am not feeling very safe in my own country. I do not like what is going on. I feel very helpless and concerned about what the future holds. I am with Canada, and Ukraine. I am embarrassed and ashamed of our government and what is happening.

I miss having an intelligent, eloquent, and empathetic leader. I am so ashamed of Trailer Park Trump.

I am so ashamed of our country right now. Praying the orange menace's days will be short.

OMG, what is going on with my country, USA? we are ashamed of our government

America should be ashamed. It’s not longer enough to say “not my president” or “I didn’t vote for him” take f*cking accountability, Yanks!

I am ashamed of my country, America. But these comments make me feel a little less ashamed.

I am an American who supports the action you took. Millions of us are ashamed of the men who are ruining our country at the moment. ????

I'm a 71 yr old woman. I'm crying! To listen to a leader who is coherent and articulate is foreign as of late. I haven't slept a full night since he came into office. I'm ashamed of the people in the country that are disgusting brainwashed maganuts. My daughter in law & her family are from Montreal. We stand with Canada!! You should impose a 30% counter tariff! America is dying because of that orange nazi & his group of nazi clowns. God bless Canada, Ukraine, Israel & may He save America!!?

I would prefer to live in Canada than the USA. So ashamed of this government. The words peace is just a word to get ahead of other countries and victimize themselves.

I have never been so ashamed to be an American ? It’s like Trump is trying to hurt as many innocent people as he can. He is abusing nice people like the Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau. He is hurtful to the Mexicans and immigrants as well. I was so angry with the way the Trump administration ganged up on and bullied the nice, strong Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. I loathe the Trump administration. Trudeau and Zelenskyy are vastly superior to Trump and everyone in his administration.

As an American I'm ashamed ?

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.

Impeachment for the whole office and the senators that let this happen. How can you impeach a president who had an affair with another woman, but you let a 4 years ruin the United States of America. The senators should be ashamed for turning their backs on the American people and our allies. IMPEACHMENT!!!

So ashamed to be an American now! I stand with Canada!

It is absolutely a shame what the United States is doing now. I want to leave this country and I was born and raised here . I have been a proud American a proud African-American woman. I am appalled and ashamed I was born and raised in Detroit right across from Canada so I am very close\n\nwith people that live in Canada and it’s a part of my history. I am at a loss for words. I hope that we can do something to stop this dictator. this liar, this cheater, this imposter.

I was so proud when I became an American Citizen. Not anymore! I am so disgusted and ashamed and want go back where I come from.

If you voted for trump, for whatever reason, at this point you should be ashamed. \n\nShame on you, you did this to your own country. Be better.

As an American, I stand with you Canada. Not all Americans support dictatorship! We HATE what’s happening and are so ashamed of our fellow Americans. The magas. Shame on all of them.

Sadly I am ashamed of being American. The Current administration is evil. Love you Canada

Canada must be so ashamed of this guy.

Trudeau is a true leader. He understands we are victims of trump. I am so ashamed and angry of what trump and his accomplices are doing. They will destroy America and attack democracy across the planet if not stopped

I’ve never been ashamed to be an American until Trump got in the White House. I cry for my Country and I stand with Canada and Uktaine

As an American I'm so ashamed and embarrassed. Please know this person does not support this. I think something hinky happened with this election because the country I have grown up in does not condone this. I don't know how to stop this, I don't know what is going to happen and I'm scared. This isn't the America I know and I know I'm not alone in this. Please know this isn't the people.

Most Americans are ashamed of what is happening in our government....

I support ?? Canada. I’m ashamed of our criminal regime. I’m frightened about our future of democracy.

I am an American. I am embarrassed and ashamed of the leadership of America. However, I am extremely proud of Prime Minister Trudeau and the citizens of Canada!! I stand by Canda and will be purchasing Canadian products as much as possible.

Thank you so very much to everyone one of you who have taken the time to express your support for Canada and your Canadian friends on this page. May I also ask, that wherever you live, you contact your government representatives and express your feelings and views to them. As a Canadian, I am ashamed at the (near) silence of European leaders and U.S. democrats and their cowardice for not loudly voicing their support for Canada. Many, many thanks again for your kind words.

I stand with Canada as an American. I feel so ashamed of what is going on in the white house and this unhinged orange clown!!!!!

Now that's a leader. Thank you, Trudeau for standing strong and speaking truth in the face of USA doing nothing but Russia's bidding. I am so ashamed of my county for allowing this to take over.

As an American I am so ashamed of the actions happening.....what a fool in our WH. Thank you Trudeau for your words. Our markets are a mess and will get worse.

Well said. I will never understand how Trump and the entire Republican Party turned against our country and our allies, and aligned themselves with a murderous Russian dictator. I don’t know how anyone could grow up in the United States of America and so completely turn their backs on the Constitution, and the laws and values we stand for. I am confused. I am scared. I am angry. But mostly, I am ashamed to be living in Trump’s America.

Ashamed American- French-Portuguese bisexual woman here.\n\nThank you for being an amazing leader. Please get me the fuck out of here. I'm honestly scared as fuck and trying to get my French Citizenship.\n\nI'm so fuxking angry, every single day. For myself, my friends, my colleagues, and immigrants.

Welcome to the Idiot's War... Word War Idiot... Whatever we call it, Putin has something on Trump... Whatever it is, it's gotta be something that even his legion of devout followers would be ashamed of... What could do that?
