The way to deal with Trump is to just give it to him. Do not give him material to walk all over PM Trudeau is giving the US president material that will easily portray him in a wimpy manner. You're talking to a BULLY. ?????

You know there's an old saying that I'm sure Trump is very wise about you keep your friends close and your enemies closer I would say the way Canada is talking they consider us an enemy look at all these other countries that suddenly lined up against America who bailed all of them out of World War II and who brought down the Berlin Wall that shows how thankful you are and America's been paying the highest of the EU and the United Nations than any of you chicken countries I would just laugh at all of you you don't get it and all these comments are from Liberal Democrats who hate Trump it's real obvious that's who his fan base is Trudeau the little boy from the north who's not smart enough to come in from the cold poor guy he's in for a rude awakening she thinks he's going up against America and that we believe any of his BS

I am appalled by the american journalists. The way they both were talking about it is implying that Canada (e.g. we, as I am Canadian) are starting war against them. Justin said it as it is - the war was started by USA. But apparently, if Ukraine could be the aggressor ?(repeated many times over now by the American propagandists), so are we.

I don't consider that. . . Talking directly to Trump. Good luck you whimpy crazy little fruit. Ok shoot us with your tariffs. See who caves first. Whining on tv trying to change our minds. When we openly, willingly and happily voted to change the way THIS COUNTRY has been thru because of idiots like you, Biden ETC. change hurts in the beginning. . . But in the end. We will see who has a trade deficit with who. Good luck little fruit

Ever notice that Kevin McCarthy and Trudeau talk the same way ? Creepy !

Everybody says they are the friend of the US, until it's time to be fair. To the world, stop being a bunch of children... or don't. But if not, be prepared to suck it up. Be ready to back up your BS. Don't tell us what our government is doing to us, pay attention to what you are doing to us... and have been since the 1950s. Let us be crystal clear, you Canada, along with Europe and others have been enjoying your subsidized lifestyles off our backs. We are done and finally someone in the White House is hearing us. I don't agree with everything he says and does, but I agree with him that this foolishness needs to stop. Stop now. To Trudeau, Buckel up butter cup, put your blackface on and find yourself a cute little dress, maybe entertainment can be the way for you to go. Talk to you in a few years, let's see how this all works out for you. To Canadian's, Last Chance, come be number 51, before the Russia and China split you down the middle like a roast pig. Send your 250 troops to Ukraine, let's see what you and 2000 Europeans can do after you piss off the Russians... because you are right about one thing, they are led by an evil man, who's word is useless and who doesn't give a rat's butt who dies for his glory.... even if it's you and your children. No worries, you don't need those nasty Americans south of the great white north, your good all on your own. I Just sent Trump another $50. Not going to change the world, but it will let him know we are behind him, no matter what the Libs of the world have to say about it.

Trump isn't listening, he's preoccupied with all that $$$ Money putins giving him for turning against Ukraine and the western alliance, putin has deep pockets and trump will do anything for some of it..\nThe tarrifs, talk about Gaza, Panama, Greenland, his mate Musk and the Billions he's supposedly found, it's merely a Distraction while his deal with putin is established & underway.\nPutin was right in 2022 with talk about a new world order, yet who thought it would turn out this way..

Every leader is playing into trumps hands!! People everywhere do not understand narcissistic personality disorder. By every leader, media reports talking about him phoning him pleading with him is all fuel!!!!This also tells his narcissism everyone is under control!! This makes him feel powerful! Society really needs to learn about narcissists. This situation calls for leaders to ignore him do not call him media needs to drop stories!! But society has been so heavily influenced by narcissism it just can’t let go of the profits this whole shit show is going to create. Oh and by the way all these politicians are narcissists as well and now this has threatened their control. And guess who gets to go along for the ride and the chaos they create.

Maybe he should discuss the constant duty fees and border crossing fees for anything shipped from Canada to the USA that have been constantly rising for years; fees that his very own government sets. Maybe he should talk about Canada demanding that anyone that sells anything foodwise to anyone in Canada from the USA has to have a special Safe Food For Canadians Food License or the goods being shipped will be rejected at the US owners cost, seized by the border and held in storage at the US owners cost, and destroyed and billed to the US owner. A license that no one actually needs considering other legal and ethical controls are in place to prevent unsafe foods from crossing the border, but Canada reserves the right to make us pay for one or we suffer consequences. Maybe he should discuss how they left their borders open to migrants, making it much easier for criminal migrants to get into the US. Maybe he should understand that the US has always been bleeding money to Canada on a trade level for about half a century with it getting much worse in the last decade because Canada's government are greedy. Before any of you come at me, keep in mind I work in the food ingredient industry as an order processing, logistics and customs & border crossing and have done so for 15 years. These tariffs were a long time coming and if any of you are on the inside of trade in the manner I am, then you know what I'm saying is true. The US is constantly paying additional tariffs by way of duty fees, customs fees, certain applied taxes (like there is literally a blueberry tax to ship US grown blueberries into Canada to prevent US blueberries from taking over the Canadian blueberry market). The blueberry tax is about 25cents per lb. which drives the price per lb. up for the seller and buyer. You wanna know why Food costs so much? All of the above with a huge side helping of GREED.

I think Trudau is on phentanyl. Shit talking on his way out

As an US resident, I am in no way in agreement with our government…..I hate the fact that our closest neighbors for centuries hate us. I am depressed every single day since Trump entered the White House the first time. Our former and greatest president allowed me a reprieve but now I am thinking about moving from this country due to my extreme depression. Our family helped build this country as we were here before the revolutionary war. I was expecting a nice retirement and Trump and his cronies are making that impossible by possibly stealing our social security that I was told was I would get back for the last 50 yrs. I certainly understand why other countries do not like us…….I do not even talk to my family anymore as I voted for the prosecutor and they voted for the felon.

Yes, the number two in the Oval Office is Pence, and his words often come across as cheap, bullying tactics. Instead of offering real leadership or thoughtful discussion, he uses language that tries to intimidate and put others down. His approach often feels like he's trying to hold onto power by scaring people, rather than standing on solid ground with strong ideas. This kind of talk may work for some, but it only creates more division and gets in the way of real progress.\nThe biggest mistake was introducing tariffs without any backup plans in place. The bottom 60% of U.S. citizens will likely struggle to make ends meet in less than two years, stuck behind the barriers of these tariffs. The idea that South American countries might step in to help the U.S. seems unrealistic. More likely, the U.S. will find itself isolated, facing political instability—and to put it bluntly, a loss of trust—thanks to an overinflated ego and a sense of entitlement.\nCould the U.S. turn to African countries for their natural resources? It’s possible, but this effort probably won’t be successful. Most African nations, except for those in the Sahel region, are just beginning to recover from the effects of colonialism. Many are now building their own paths and are more likely to align with China’s influence rather than the U.S. Even if the U.S. tries to get resources from Africa, it will likely face challenges from both local resistance and growing competition from China.

The way the orange man talks there are no drug gangs in his country. The fool needs to wake up.

Trudy you are the reason you destroyed our country, you make Trump mad in many ways, even last week Trudy we don’t like even see your face Trudy you put under 64 billon, open the Govt. your own liberal Govt. wanted you to out, but you no hiding shut the Govt. running & running now you giving your garbage speech to Trump, you just barking to mountains no body is listening to your garbage , you simply get out we will fix the problem. Why Trudy just bullshit talking.

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.

I'm not American. I grew up hearing lots of hate bout USA cuz the US doesn't exactly have a good rep in foreign policies - always bullying other nations, starting wars for oil etc. but I've always preferred USA not just for the world order it brings, it allows different voices, criticism & scolding towards its leaders compared to China, Russia & North Korea. \n\nin the US, you can talk bad bout politicians in power, or probably make movies bout these kind of things like US invading other countries for oil, or testing out some cruel AI military robots on humans (movie name: Monsters of Man), & you won't be persecuted. but after looking at a bunch of executive orders Trump has signed, the way he (& JD Vance) treated Zelenski & Canada, I don't know if I still feel the same bout USA anymore.\n\nif USA doesn't wanna continue spending on Ukraine, perhaps USA shouldn't have sweet talked Ukraine into denuclearization thru the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. that's what you get for mendling with other countries' affairs. by stopping US aid & wanting a new mineral deal, Trump's refusing to follow the Memorandum (I added this sentence thru edit as I can't reply to the comment below).\n\nunderstandably, US & UK don't need to deploy troops in Ukraine as the security assurance in the memorandum wasn't clearly defined, but it also didn't mention that Ukraine should pay the US back financially, nor any mineral concessions. \n\nTrump always wanting a purely 1 sided deal will only isolate USA from more allies.

I stand with Canada, Trump and Vance think they have our support, but thats just all the Russian bots talking. No way I'm fighting for Trumps administration!

This will hurt america way more than it will hurt Canada! Canadians are used to tightening their belts and pulling together and remember that when our trade deals are ratified with other countries and those relationships are built and new trade routes are forged bypassing the u.s. then the u.s. will be a stand alone country wait until Canadas oil and gas and electricity is turned , and let's talk about Canadas potash and just about everything else will be gone let's not forget about tourism because instead of making north America stronger Canada will be stronger and once we start getting fair market value for Canadian energy and our national debt is gone then it'll be bye bye Americans. You won't be the stronger nation on earth very much longer. Is America joining Russia as a new communist agreement.

justin talk like, canada way better than Panama hahahahahaha

México nowdays has a efficient, knowledgeable. and honest president that wanted to have fair trade agreements with Canada and the United States ...however the US government choose to fight and blame the neighbors to the north and south by braking every single rule of the free trade among the three countries ......CHINA , CANADA AND MEXICO ....oviously will retaliate the same way and Definitely the US citizens will be the most hurt ....mexico always have been resilient from wars. Pandemics , bad politicians , economy , etc etc etc ....mexicans have the strength to recovery sooner than later and this one won't be diffrent .....mexico will continue to have agreements with Europe. Asia , and Latin America with the option to have talks with bricks ...we all know the world is totally diffrent.now .....The 1800s are gone and will never come back that's for sure !!

Idiots, Trump braging about saying things as they are, and directory. And he is himself the most arrogant shit talking about everbody, so he get what he gives himself. Direct and clear , like he treat others. And by the way he is no god, he is in fact laugin his pwn religion in the face, and breaking all it stand for. A true narcissistis. ?

US and Canada are friends and allies, to talk is the way to solve our disputes.

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

Welldone a great leader ??????⚜️⚜️⚜️from France ❤️ \n\nEurope is not weak they should respond directly in the same way...to much talking in Europe time to act... becarefull not to use drugs or fentinole to Big brothers your population ?

Don’t talk about it be about it! We made our choice!! Canada ain’t never been our closest ally… you just live under the umbrella of our protect protection!! You have been putting 25% tariffs on us for decades now!! Play ball and games changed, but we’re not playing this woke liberal ideology anymore in case you haven’t got the memo!! and by the way, Justin Trudeau is corrupted, crooked and launder money himself

If only Trump's parents had talked to him this way when he was actually two, he might have matured passed that age.

Time for everyone to stand together against trump, vance and musk. No matter who you voted for.\nUnited, with the constitution in mind, is the only way the madhouse can be returned to the Whitehouse.\nFight back, talk to people and get them to fight back. Start a movement that grows beyond anything that can be stopped, by the 3 clowns that are bringing your country down.

Queen Donald is just pissy because these countries are not bowing to Kiss the Ring like Republican senators in congress people are it's really pathetic and sad and it just shows how much of a coward Queen Donald really is because he won't dare talk to China or Russia that way

I don’t care what no one say. It has never been done like this in American history with no president and all our presidents. We have 40 iCarly 44 president I do not call this guy a president. I do not give him the 45th or will I give him 47 I will say 44 and 46. I will always skip this guy because he’s not a president. No president act like a brat no president act like a female without no president act like a female without blood no president act like a kid without a tater tot no like a kid without some type of pacifier in his mouth and for the fact that in the first time in all our lives when your grandparents died, your great grandparents died your mom probably just died and then this is what we have as an American president and American economy and an American ministration never in my whole entire life. I seen this in part of an American history. I took the class I could I could You is never gonna find anything like this in American history until now and that’s why I say I don’t give a damn what they say. He only went into the presidency to cover his behind. That was it. He went into, not giving a damn if he was the worst he always gonna claim he’s the best but numbers don’t lie, sir numbers don’t lie Your fans might say whatever they don’t lie right now your fans are the same people calling the constituents yelling at they constituent ready to fight constituents because numbers lie, sir numbers don’t lie and it’s proven. You are the worst ever in American history. It’s proven that it’s proven that no matter what so good luck with all that hypocritical talk you wanna talk but there’s no way in hell I will vote for JD Vance no way in hell this administration would ever like recoverfrom what they have done to the American people rather vote independent Democrat then vote Republican the only way I vote Republican is Chris Cristi running for Republican for the White House if it’s not Chris Cristi I don’t fuck with no more Republicans, Chris Cristi or nothing

This was an impressive speech and chilling to the bone. People should understand the undertone that this already is the first stage of a war. America is not talking friendly anymore to Europe or Canada, the alliance is questionable now at best, treaties don't matter anymore and the US government openly supports and defends totalitarian regimes like in Russia. It's a dangerous path that has a point of no return somewhere along the way. It is absolutely the time to be very worried and alert.

This is president to represent the world the way talks no that idiot in the white house you nailed it

Don’t tariff America. As a Canadian two wrongs don’t make it right. Get the energy out. Triple our global output. Our autoworkers need jobs well let’s build Trudeau. Talk and winning. Global energy. Let BYD in with out tariffs. We don’t have an auto sector anymore. ? BYD and get over it ( the eagles ?). Trump is correct at our lack of defence. Maybe this will help. The only way to scourge out of fentanyl is a clean source and less social stigmatization of the sick. Don’t expect a smart man like trump to figure that out.

Do you people even have a clue on how to negotiate or do you accept the first offer that you receive at a car dealership? Stop judging Trump because you're using Biden, Obama, and Clinton as barometers and America was taken advantage of during those administrations. As far as tariffs are concerned, Canada and Mexico have committed troops at their border since Trump initiated tariffs. Canada and Mexico are cutting down the flow of fentanyl into our country since Trump initiated tariffs. Trudeau is talking tough because he came off as weak the last time Trump scolded him. Trudeau is scheduled to meet with Trump in a few days. Why is that? Canada will meet Trump's demands on fentanyl and tariffs; and America will profit in the short and long term. Stop believing the fake news who does nothing but create fake chaos no matter what Trump does. These tariffs do not affect our country in any way over the short term. The only reason that the markets are tumbling is because the fake news wants to create panic when there is none. Same thing with Zelensky. You idiots are rooting for a war to continue because Trump is mean. Zelensky is ready to work for peace because the mean guy yelled at him. Wake up idiots! We need strong leaders not people like Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and Sanders who only care about their own interests. You'll find out soon enough who's making money off the Ukraine War.

Good speakers are not necessarily good leaders. That's why this dude is on his way out. Tough talk from a bad leader doesn't work...again that's why he's on his way out. Do More, say less, but your time has passed.

I think Trudeau missed the memo on what reciprocal tariffs mean! By the way we don't need Canadas energy when they Say they're going to so-called turn off the energy to America that means literally nothing five minutes of research will tell you that the United States does not need Canadas energy! Absolute empty threat!\n\nBy the way to anybody in the comments section that doesn't know what they're talking about and just listens to cnn so far these tariffs have secured 1.7 trillion US dollars in just three months brought manufacturing back to the United States honda is now leaving their location in Canada and building in the United States same with American car manufacturers in Mexico. \n\nWe won and I find this so funny you guys are flipping out we have socalled Americans joining Canada's side just because they're anti Trump. absolute clowns!

This administration will go down at the worst administration in all history of America. The people that voted for Trump will go down as the same despicable traders cool in all of American history. I hope you hear that what he says you’re great great kids you’re great great grandkids will understand by itself. You cannot wipe that out. You can’t burn that book. You can’t change that note They will be talking about economy classes. They gonna be talking about this history classes they gonna be talking about Trump and JD Vance and this administration has the worst administration modern day America even in the past the worst thing that’s gonna happen is all of these guys who find himself alienated when they die. They will find himself alienated. Their kids will find himself alienated of their existence. The only way their kids is gonna escape that they have a daughters The only way you gonna escape that as a man who is back in this administration is to have daughters that could change their fucking name other than that any mail that is from these despicable despicable if you watch the movie, the despicable, even the guy that was the biggest biggest most craziest most narcissistic, OK we talk about the dude with all the minions minions. He even had a common sense and had a understanding and had a heart this administration talk about Biden talk about bull talk about Obb like they did something different. They didn’t do something different Obama Bush and NN and Biden did way better this administration they tagged the republican party for years to come. I hope you remember that no one in their mind will vote for Republican for years to come. I guarantee that, you let me give you 50 cash OK you don’t got businesses I could hop in and out of this country on a private plane or even take first class you guys are stuck here. Don’t talk to me about shit now because I got currency different countries, bro so when I’m talking to you, I’m talking to you low life concept of a plan. I ain’t talking to the plan. The plan is for the rich. I got money. I qualify for what he’s giving mequalify for what he’s giving me. Your ad administration is giving me I qualify but but what about you guys? Are you guys qualified? Do you guys have businesses? Do you guys have real equity in your businesses? You know most business self for million dollars you know most houses if you put them in transfer them they into like businesses with real substance they can sell for $1 million but do you guys know that no you don’t so when I’m speaking to you guys I hope none of you come back with your little turbo controlling shit because most of you broke you concept truck drivers low level budget you guys are low budget so I hope you guys understand and don’t come back to me with your low yeah yeah Donald Trump baby talk you understand what I just said don’t come back to me with that. I really make money you guys don’t your tax return is below 50,000 you guys gonna be in trouble? Good luck I stand with Canada.

JD VANCE.. WHAT AN IDIOT!!!! . Today he slagged off European armies that fought and died beside US troops. Desert Storm, Irak, afghanistan and some more. As random small armies with no experience.Pretty much useless... \n The anger from allied vets, military personal ect. is furious!! To say the least.. \nJeez, That is some way to disrespect the fallen allies.. That is irreparible. Despite how much smooth talking he or Donald Putin will try with.. He is obviously dumb f..ed

Bravo. Facts from JT. Nice to hear a leader who makes sense when he talks. And the vast majority of fentanyl crossing the US Border is going from the US into Canada, not the other way around.

All Governor Trudeau talking about a non-existent trade War these are just tariffs and in any way shape and form a war? Canada's military is so underfunded by Governor Trudeau Canada would almost certainly lose any conflict at ever thought with America or any tier one adversary, my suggestion Mr Trudeau you need to exit stage left and make room for somebody who has the courage to deal with the Tangerine bird

Why not use news headlines from our own country? Why open with a joke about canada being the 51st state? if you wanted 40 million people to automatically think you're a jackass who doesn't understand what hes talking about you sure dumbfucked your way right into it.

Support Ukraine all the way to WW3? These liberals talk big, but they have starved the military for the past 10 years under Trudeau. Trump is right, we've been riding on the coattails of theur military for the past 50 to 60 years.

Northern Border, are you talking about Michigan? The lakes are frozen and anyone could walk right in that way. The NY Border police aren’t letting illegals into NY (Buffalo). I had a hard time getting back into Buffalo from Canada.

In the fiscal year 2024 (October 2023 to September 2024), nearly 200,000 people were stopped by U.S. Border Patrol while crossing the border from the United States to Canada. This is a significant increase from the previous fiscal year. \n\nIt seems that it's a two way street. How come nobody talks about that? Don't take me wrong. I am pro-Trump Canadian, but fair is fair.

Baaaaugh ha ha,,, please get away from our countries, but if they get cold, frost bitten or freeze....hush, be quiet and know you deserve that because you should not be sneaking Into into anybodies country. Use the energy you used to come to America with your hands out for free stuff, that ended. Why? Use that same energy in your own country and quit being lazy and do all you can to make it a better & nicer place for you & your family. Talk to your own government, just like you come here to our government begging with no pride or dignity. Well go back to your own country and talk or make appointments to talk to your home country, ask them what they can do for you and your family but also ask, what YOU can do to even make your community's a better place? mow lawns, plant a lawn,paint or work on houses,, help turn in criminals, if your williing to Chancee freezing to death, to come to America, don't do that because we the taxpayers are stuck disposing of dead bodies, but then again it might be cheaper then you being here alive, both ways, your not wanted or respected dead or alive . Stay Away, go home and make changes.

Talk about a basis report....wow. Stop with the theaterics and report the facts. I dont want illegal immigrants in the US either, but not all of them are pilliaging the village and raping women. By the way, when they are captured, where would you like them to be placed? Prison? Left to die in the snow? \nMeanwhile, work with Canada to tighten up the border.

Why do you talk like you’re about to catch on fire slow down?\n what are you say is important but my Lord it’s horrible. Your voice is annoying. Change your way of talking please not say I’m sorry I just like to tell the truth I think you have great ideas and tell the truth like it should be but say it differently

Bullcrap about mayor Eric Adam’s. The liberals sold him out just because he questioned the unsustainable situation in being a sanctuary city. They demonized him because he spoke out and drummed up fake charges as they always do. Also why is it that no one ever talks about the fact that having an open border is a recipe for disaster with infectious disease. It has put our country at high risk of having outbreaks of diseases that we have never been exposed to which can be a national disaster way more than Covid was.

THAT'S NOT TRUE! its not even true what he says, there was 2100 that passed in 2024!! he doesnt even say what time period he is talking about.\nFor migrants not to enter usa, usa have to protect their side of the border. Our job is to make sure nobody enter canada, not the opposite!\nThe other way around is effing true since Don Cheetos is in office. They all want to come here bfore being deported!!

As a Canadian I’d move to Sweden or some other Northern Country or even a Southern Country way b4 going to USA. USA is too fake. It’s all about money rather than common sense. You don’t even care about health. Once you’ve known no paying healthcare you cannot go back. I was talking to an American friend who was looking at a $6000 bill for an emergency room quick visit. That doesn’t even make sense. I’m diabetic so He’ll no

India itself its a place of racism first change ur ways then talk about racism.. Karma is a bitch
