I think any person Who makes efforts to find the Best for its country should be considered as a patriot. Defend a Nation ist not a easy issue but the Canadian are free to choose the Best. For them. Good look, God bless you all.

It's done, EEUU has broken the stability of every single person throughout the word.

Can he be our President??? How can every other countries leadership literally call this new admin a joke, but we have people in our government who are supposed to be “smart” I say that sarcastically, support this madness. We in for some rough seas ahead and I’m a positive person!!

Every leader in the world sounds like a smart and intellectual person except ours we have a dumb limit vocabulary hot mess of a person representing only the racist,dumb crazy and rich group of us wow

Lol you can't win a trade war. Trudeau is a tyramt and not a serious person. Step down

Only person threatening canada is trudeau

We are discusted about this and we know you will have to do all you have to do. I have always thought Canada and their residents are truly decent and reasonable people ane we don't blame you for anything. We know that the courts are getting involved and hope we can get Trump out of office. \nI personally wish you the best.

Trump is the dumbest and evil person in the history of America

Kudos to the person who wrote him this speech. Not sure what great things he did that he speaks of… why didn’t he talk weeks ago before the taarifs? One speech without um, hum, ah… finally but still he must go!

I disagree with him. Donald is clearly not a “very” smart guy. Even a person with average IQ would make so many and so big poor decisions. He is a muppet on the hands who realized how easily he can be manipulated. Most unAmerican president in the history of USA. Worse than Nixon. Danger to USA and American people. As long as he is the president. We can no longer say POTUS is “the leader of the free world “ He prefers murderous dictators. Not the free world.

Arent there safeguards in place to protect the US from one person (the potus) who is trying to destroy the country? He should be impeached right away

Aloha Prime Minister, Trudeau, and Canadiens, the majority in this country can’t stand the current administration in our embarrassed, concerned, and want him out along with every MAGA moron selling this country out! I am so angry and disgusted! I apologize for our horrific leadership and I hope one day the people who are responsible for what is happening will be charged with sedition and espionage! I’ve had it. I stand with Ukraine Canada and the same citizens of this country who despise everything this current administration has done since they took office! You people who believe that Trump is this wonderful person and he’s doing wonderful things for America read a fucking history book!

Yall so fkn dumb af yall dont even know the benefits behind the tariffs for us Americans. Imagine someone helping your economy and not knowing about it while you criticizing the person helping you. Thats so fkn dumb. Poor Trump i feel bad for him as they're too many ignorant people out there. Think about it how in the f does tariffs benefit Trump in any kind of way. In nothing its just for the Country thats all

Difference BETWEEN Clear And Understandable Full sentences. WITH Absolutely NO USE OF TALKING Over somebody. Thats the difference Between a Real person. And A BULLY!

As a Minnesotan, I feel as if I’m almost as Canadian as American and proud to say so. Our present sitting president and buffoon unelected sidekick Musk are creating chaos everywhere for the sake of billionaire donors and supporters. Absolutely none of what Trump/Musk has done and plans to continue to do is beneficial to a single non-wealthy American and these actions will harm his personal voters (of which I’ve never been one!) the most. Trump cares not. Pervasive narcissistic sociopathy is not curable! Stand strong Canada! We’re trying mightily to defeat this insanity here in the USA! 74 million people did not vote for any of this harm and destruction and outright cruelty!

Some of bus American are ......unfortunately .................suckers. There is evidence that the person elected to office is actually a Russian agent recruited in 1987, identified as Krasznov. Help us to get through these next four years.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nfour years.

How is this possible that a lunatic mentally ill person in America can upend the entire world including his own country?

It takes a very evil person to try and turn Canada into an enemy while turning Russia into an ally.

I am sorry for our new administration. Personally I think they are destroying our country.

Oh no maple syrup ............nooooo . Have any of you Canadians looked into what Canada imports vs exports .......... remeber all those new green deal garbage is out the window here in the USA, so lumber is going back up , mining , etc . Just because our countries are next to each other doesn't make us neighbors......... your country has allowed trahs polices to over ride your citizen rights, you've filled your country with migrants , you support crazy sick policies allowing sexual perversion to be put before public saftey . If your countries economy is so effected by this maybe you need this , got a little to relaxed riding tr he coat tails of being next to America. And don't take it personal , this isn't about you as a country but more about American calling out americna companies who build factories only your side , get great deals for taxes and then import the products back to American at a premium retail price and then profit off the American people while offering nothing back .........the end goal is to either make thise companies pay more to get products over the boarder , or bring the factories back here and employee americans .........and last I check the Canadian government doesn't own or produce any products so the things that will be imported to usa will be the ones with a cost rise to the companies that are producing them ........ them............

While Canadians' outrage over Trump's policies is still understandable, we now witness Americans who ought to stand with their president choose to support this hypocritical person, Trudeau, who has persecuted and still persecutes many of his fellow citizens, including truck drivers and anti-vaccine activists, in the name of freedom of speech. Words cannot adequately describe such behavior. \nIn this terrible time of the U.S. national debt, everyone must be with their president and no one else.

Trump is just a wicked person - he puts pressure on allies and cozy up to Russia. More troubling is that almost fifty percent of Americans agree with Trump.

America voted for this, I sure hope I don’t hear one darn complaint from any republicans . Personally I think this is a nightmare. All of it

Corruption, corruption, corruption. And Trump can no longer hide it from the American people. There is a reason you swear an Oath to the constitution and not a man. You have a democratic system of government and rule of law. Trump is dismantling that and having people (hacks, loyalists and sycophants) that are loyal to him not the constitution or system of government (he attacks it as the deep state) Corruption, because his personal wants and the U.S. government become one and the same. Medicare, Medicaid and veterans programs are all under threat for billionaires tax breaks. The clock is ticking. He will try to decree the law. Resist!

Trump is purposefully destroying the USA economy. Ask yourself, what he has to personally gain from doing so! Disconnecting the country from its allies and trading partners and their economies will tank the economy. Again, ask yourself, if you wanted to destroy the economy and the government, what are the steps would you take?

These tariffs are not about policy differences. They appear to be personal. Trump is settling scores. Many Trump voters believe that Mexico, Canada, Russia, China, Ukraine, and even the EU interfered in the US presidential and congressional elections in 2020, 2022, and in 2024 to help the Democrats strip us Americans of our rights and lock Republicans out of power permanently. It doesn't matter if its actually true or not. It's the perception that matters most and that has the bigger consequence. MAGA and President Trump are responding to the appearance of foreign interference in our elections. That's why he's preparing the shut down the DACA program too because we believe the DACA recipients sought to influence the last 4 elections and MAGA wants to punish all of them for that.

Proud of you Canada! US is now officially Russian state! After 3 years of brutal war Putin is un successful to occupy the whole Ukraine, and still Ukrainians are fighting hard even with losses, but US on the other hand become a Russian state in just 3 weeks! the most powerful military and country in the world become a puppet of a Dictator! without firing a single bullet!!! Trump is the most Idiot person who ever lived, and those who support him are most than morons!

Trump & his imbecilic red neck supporters are a global disgrace. Look at how America is treating it’s western allies, while in the same breath calling for the lifting of sanctions against Russia. Keep your eye on U.S. inflation figures & the skyrocketing cost of living for the average American person. Wake up people & stop drinking the Trump Kool-aide.

Every person in the USA needs to watch this speech

Trudeau is dealing with a malignant narcissist. Even if Trump wants to, he can’t back down because he thinks it’ll make him look weak. America’s voters completely underestimated the danger of Trump’s personality disorder.

From the US here Good job I am glad. Tell that idiot and the us citizens what a liar Trump really is. He didn't want the presidency. He only wanted to stay out of jail. I truly beleive this. So he letting Elon run the presidents office. A total bunch of idiots. They have fired 1000s of us government workers. I really don't think he is smart person Justin. I'm from ky. And I can garentee ypu it has nothing to do about drugs. Stick it to the sorry idiots. Again good job Justin.

He things he is the only person on earth. Yes Sir, Canadians are reasonable and not polite but very polite. I love Canadian people . They are wise and very very intelligent.

Our Dumb Chump person in the office of President is a complete idiot. Imgine the character of those that put him in office!

Ok, to be honest, this is exactly what the other side want, reactions/panic. Trump loves it...but be honest... he is a buissnessman(!), don´t ever forget that!! My heart struggel so hard with this one... How? Why? When/Ever?\n\nTo Canadian Prime minister: I hear you and will make a change as a born child 1976, Euorpean. US was the ONE-country to discover as a young fellow! I will for now on also hearing Canadian news and other countries like Australia, France, Great Britain, South Africa, Japan, etc. Democracy <3 \n\nUS we hear you still but this is NOT ok!!! It would be to go against our absolut nearest neighbour hood! Our most trusted!! We love them!!! How can you??!! We would never do that!! Our countries are united and will stand together, beside what one person or government says, that is democracy!!! Stand up US people!!! \nWe are united, we are one! Don´t let his words get you, ever!

Trump is a so weird person who attack friends and help enemies ?

Leadership not a Coconut busines. They took war aganst Iraq without a reason taking advise from shyco garbage person Nut yahu, killed milions of innocents untill now they are suffering. Simply said Sorry

Lol. He’s really lovely, talk to the Canadians about this so called articulate person.

It’s about narcissistic personality disorder. End of analysis.

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.

Wolf - you are not of us. Your prosperous life on the border does not reflect us.\n\nHave a normal person on your cast and you’ll understand why we liberals now voted for Trump.

Clearly Donald Trump does not understand the simple concept of Tariffs...when reporters ask him questions he deflects the questions., President Trump is not acting according to the oath he has taken as President. Its obvious this is a revenge trip for all of the legal issues against Trump over the last years,, he is taking it personal and damaging so many critical pillars within the US and its all gonna come down and thats where he thinks he will personally win ie get his revenge.

I’m so sorry, Canada. Don’t take it personally. trump is insane. Totally crazy! It cannot be reasoned with. I now understand how Hitler got into power.

Let's be perfectly clear, here: The United States, leaving her markets WIDE OPEN -- as if a woman flinging her legs open and apologizing if she can't 'service' everyone in the crowd -- for EIGHTY YEARS and our workers, engineers, factory builders, etc., etc., all just watching our jobs float off to other shores...is OVER.\n> As is to be expected, Trudeau is keeping up appearances. \n> About THREE-FOURTHS of Canada's exports are converted to CASH inside the United States. \n> That means JOBS for Canadians, paychecks for Christmas time and tax revenues for Ottawa.\n> Yes, the US really does need Canada. We need Mexico. (We don't need Communists like China.)\n> But we have SACRIFICED our most vital naturally-occurring need: our personal and industrial productivity and creativity. \n> The United States, thanks to Her ideas on governance and empowerment of the People, invented and created the modern world that, now, almost 8 billion people expect (maybe closer to 6 billion of the 8+). \n> We have suffered unspeakably for the past -- at least -- 50 years as more and more of our ingenuity and creativity that once fueled our production has disappeared in the name of keeping the world free.\n> Enough. \n> The world WILL change. We can either accept China's version of Soviet Communism, relinquishing all global empowerment for whatever the CCP feels like, today.\n> Or we can bite the bullet and allow the People of the United States to restore what we sacrificed for the stability of a free world, starting about 80 years ago.\n> Either way, Canada will not go back to the way things were.\n> They can be better. But not like before. Period.

Trump orange tv personality nothing more

Trudeau is a joke. While he is pushing his agenda. Fur starters, he fails to mention the trade deficit with the usa. So bottom line while everyone loses, canada loses more. The us can survive a lot easier without canada, while canada will suffer a lot more without the usa.\n\nWhen i bring cheese from the usa to canada, there is a 200% tax on anything above my $20 personal exemption, the save is not the same when bringing dairy to the usa.\n\nIf you want to be treated fairly, treat others fairly.\n\nAfter watching zelensky from Ukraine, Trudeau is pretty stupid if he thinks he will win this one.

I sure hope our American friends don't take the retaliation personally.

This is what a real leader looks like. This is an intelligent, serious person.

Agree with everything- thank you Prime Minister Trudeau. ❤️??\nOne thing - Can we please call the appointed Fentanyl person anything else? “Tzar” has an awfully Russian connotation.

Trump is purposely destroying our country as we know it to pay back Putin for helping him win the election, keeping trump out of jail, and making available our coffers as trumps personal piggy bank. Trump is in bed with Putin. This is planned. Trump is a traitor and so are the people he has put in place in our government. I am heart broken but not about to give up.

It’s just beyond me that Americans would vote a liar, clown and crazy person to lead their country.
