We can't make it reasonable? Im disabled nurse on Medicare and I e already lost Medicaid and a lot of snap and have to pay more for meds... After 30 years as a nurse, I'd rather be dead than live here under this evil devil... I wish I could move to Canada or the UK where there is sanity

BRAVO PM Trudeau!!!!!! this is fantastic that you are standing up against the inhinged criminal FELON and TYRANT!!\nDo not ever cave in to this idiot BULLY or Canada will forever regret it, trump cant be reasoned with, talked to , persueded or anything else.\nConsider CUTTING the electric power to the 3 US States, and the OIL exported to the US as well- hit HARD and don't give in! The rest of the world is BEHIND you and support you!

Why are we fighting with our allies for no reason? Are we speedrunning our collapse?

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!

Sorry Canada for the idiocy of our @$$ hole president. I agree with Trudeau's speech, but sadly he doesn't realize he is talking reasonably to a man who is a psychopath and does not care about what is right. He is trying to become a dictator and has no sense of reason

This is unacceptable - he is coherent and reasonable. What is he trying to do - show the US as a retarded nation?

I think you need to worry about your own country. You are only talking about America for some strange reason. America doesn’t give a shit what you think.

What a brilliant presentation from the smart, civilized, reasonable, well raised, highly educated and well behaved and polite statesman, Justin Trudeau. Canadians have to be very proud.

Canadians are very reasonable and very Polite people. I love you Canada and all the Canadians.

Sane America here supporting Trudeau! I apologize for this disaster in the white house. There is no reason for this other than to line the pocket of Trump's billionaire friends.

Are people _FINALLY_ going to see reality? Trump wants as much discourse as possible. His major plan is to declare a reason for Martial Law, to take complete control of the government/country. As I have said this before, for years, all I received in return is to be called a Russian BOT! Well, guess what? It's going to get much, much worse! And, YES, it's the democrats, also.

One really has to admire Canada's leadership here. JT can speak without a script , No hurling of petty unintelligible insults and actually acts on the best interests of ALL it's citizens. So while the predator destroyer is on the march, humanity, reason and decency prevail in Canada.

Everything Trudeau is saying should be reasonable and sensible to every American, that is every American that isn't either a blind faith follower of Trump, or someone profiting from Trump and his policies. Sadly there are just so very many of them.

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.

All of Europe is on your side, dear Canadians. The majority of Americans voted for Trump, thus abandoning a centuries-old tradition of reason and ethical standards. But the free world still exists. Let's work together. Europe is here and Europe likes you. :)

THIS man is the reason that Canada will be trembling at the feet of the almighty Donald

Hey listen , its the voice of reason, please listen. I consider Canadians my brothers. This is such a dark time. My elected officials are supposed to represent the people, please do Roger

As an American I don't want this to happen to my neighbor nor did I condone it. Trump is the reason with the help of Oligarchs and Maga Republicans. I am not okay with this and I will fight with my Country men and my Allies. Canada is our Ally, wake up America and fight!

Robert De Niro’s statement on Donald is perfect. \n\n “I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly. I see an evil one. Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped. Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them. We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016. The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags. The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse. Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously. So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America: This is our last chance. Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator. And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided. So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls. We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them. Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect. Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity. Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world. Safety for our families. Decency. Let’s welcome them back. We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.””

Make you friends, enemies, and make your enemy, a new best friend. Overnight. For no reasons. At the same time, hurt your own economy and people. I would guess, in much less democratic countries, these are enough reasons to impeach a president.

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

What a mistake to acuse Trudeau of anti-americanism. He spoke very empatic to and about the american people. He only showed the need to fight back against the Trump madness aimed against the canadians. For what reason? America first is turning into America alone.

I'm not a fan of trudeau at all but ill give him credit for actually speaking properly. For some reason that's how low the bar is these days.

The irony is USA gets a bargain price on oil from Canada as an allie who always supported USA including supporting USA wars. A close friendship in fact family as many if not most Canadians have relatives that live in the USA. The selling of discounted oil to the USA helps the USA economically and the main reason why the USA buys more from Canada than Canada from USA but then complains they buy too much from Canada. Stop buying the discounted oil then, go buy the oil on the world market at a higher price and problem solved or Canada just raise the price of oil until they buy sufficient amount less that balances the trade. Old saying, be careful what you ask for?

It isn't about fentanyl do you really think he cares about people and fentanyl hell no !!! So again what's the real reason Donald

What's wrong with Trump? he is only creating chaos and harm in the world and in US. He is not capable of representing America! impeach him. For a lesser reason Bill Clinton was impeached! why can' this loony go?

Now I don't want to dampen the positive comments being direct to us Canadians which we all appreciate. However, I don't want people to forget that this individual talks about making things affordable for their citizens. There is a reason he has resigned. Don't forget that our country unreasonably fights itself on sooooo many things that make items in Canada so much more expensive than they need to be. I was hopeful our own government would make living more afforable for all Canadians by putting a freeze on things such as the Carbon Tax....guess that wasn't in the cards!? Together I hope that intelligence and common decency prevails.

To the people of Canada, I'm sorry. We appreciate you and understand any measures you take. There are still people of reason and integrity here.

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.

There was no reason for these tariffs against Canada. Our closest neighbor and ally. Unreal! Trump is doing exactly what he has been instructed to do, to divide the USA. Both nationally and globally. Putin must be patting himself on the back for a job well done. Disgusting Republicans.

America are we switch side to please Satan Putin? And long time friends and allies now our enemies? This is the reason why Putin goes to war with Ukraine, because its all plan out by Trump and Putin.

I still don't understand why trumps not behind bars for treason!!! Can only be one reason! The money!!! All Republicans are just too weak!!!

This man is a bigger threat to Canada than anyone. Also, we don't care about your tariffs. You had a chance to change your unfair tariffs and be more reasonable, and you blew it. That's all you had to do. But instead, you cry and whine.

President Trump a smart man? Well, this sounds like a joke!! President Trump is just stabbing his allies in the back in a world that's strictly globalized!! He's just demolishing decades and decades of friendly relationships and cooperation with the free western world, mining alliances ( NATO ), without a reasonable justification! He's actually isolating the USA from the rest of the civil world! Greetings from Italy, EUROPE!!

Trump simply asked to stop the illegals and fentenal coming to our country threw yours!! He asked you and you said you would, the same as mexico. Apparently your operations are not working for one reason or another! HONOR YOUR COMMITMENT! Mr. Trudeau simply call president Trump and discuss the numbers and come up.with a new idea on how to stop this agreed upon situation! Montana Rick.

I’d like someone to clarify why it would be advantageous for America to oppose its allies and align with Putin—I genuinely don’t get it, but I assume there must be some logical reasoning behind it, or at least an explanation that makes some kind of sense. I’d really appreciate it if someone could break it down for me.

I thought the reason for tarriffs that trump gave was to damage other countries financially? Trump doesn’t give an asses behind about people he’s all about power. Thanks maga when we’re all obliterated because the idiot can’t remember which is the correct one it will be too late to say we told you so!

Is trump trying to piss off all our allies so they all break away from the US so he can use that ad a reason why he has to join with Russia?

Please don't let M Trudeau leave! Ask him to stay on! The world needs him ! He explains the facts so very clearly, outlines the discrepancies so precisely, retains the dignity of Office, & his entreaties to reason, compassion & international cooperation are so welcome! Canada should be proud of Trudeau! Don't let him go! (Australia)

Are you people stupid. Canada will fail in 12 months. Hence the reason he said they can send us into economic ruin.. when the hell is the last time you bought a product from Canada? exactly

Anti-Americanism is right. Im glad Trudeau stepped up so quickly. Well done. From the rest of the world (specifically the UK)? We'll be doing the same. \nThis is your leaders fault, not the peoples, and I feel bad for you all. \nThose 3,800 down voters? You deserve this. For some odd reason, you arent getting the memo.

I wish to side track just slightly from this videos content. This individual who calls himself the PM of Canada is nothing short of a criminal. You're listening to a child pretending to be an adult. Trudeau is the reason that freedom is vanishing from Canada. He openly admires the Communist system of China (social credit system). He has destroyed the economy of Canada all by himself. He is desperate to destroy freedom of speech and punishes all who oppose him. Please remember what Trudeau did to Canadians during the PEACEFUL trucker protest in Ottawa. He froze bank accounts for Canadians who stood by the truckers. He inposed some of the harshest lockdown measures in the world during the pandemic and he abolutely HATES democracy. Have you forgotten his blackface scandal as well? This is the face of an absolute TYRANT pretending to be a crusader for fairness. Don't forget his total ripping during the UN speech he gave about 2 years ago when foreign UN representatives tore into him for his open tyranny against Canadians. His security thugs have assulted journalists simply for asking him honest questions about the Canadian economy and now you are swayed by a suit wearing mobster. He protects terrorists across Canada while simultaneously arresting Canadians for demanding their freedom to be restored. This guy is a THUG in an expensive suit and nothing more. It's nausiating to see how quickly people forget and how easily they are swayed by a bandit in an expensive suit. WAKE UP. Trudeau is the face of evil and you admire him. Nausiating.

I agree with all of it! Most Americans actually are reasonable and are not in favor of the tariffs!

These comments on youtube are funny. Trudeau is the reason why Canada is economically a shell of what it was 10 years ago. Everyday canadians understand his words and threats are empty. Hes a shell puppet who is so hated in canada that he had to shut down the canadian government 2 months ago. Thats right, in a demcracy this creepy fool has shut it down to milk a few more measly months of his power before he is forced to slink away. Worse, under his watch our borders have become fentanyl ridden jokes. Less than 10 percent of anything is even inspected at our ports of entry. Human and drug trafficing is out of control. I dont like tarriff wars, but this is all trudeaus fault - every criticism of the US gov is completely valid. Canada went from #3 at the G20 to last under this guy. 90 percent of the fentanyl going into the US comes through canada.. should i go on...

Trump is the one pushing anti Canadian sentiments for no reason at all. I am on the side of Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, Panama, Greenland, Denmark, etc.. I am Puertorriqueña and I regret that my beautiful Island and it’s people will be sinking alongside the USA.

In the USA. There is no justifiable or sensible reason to launch this trade attack on countries throughout the world. It hurts them, it hurts us (the working class American). This president makes any comment or accusation and insists we call it fact. I feel for Canada. America is in trouble too.

There is no reason for Trudeau to be even as polite as he was (Trump is, in fact, dumb), considering that Trump continually calls the Prime Minister “Governor Trudeau” as a taunt, meaning that in Trump’s mind, Canada is already a state of the USA, not a sovereign nation.

Trump's goal is to start an actual war with anyone who'll have it, including our closest neighbors and allies. The reason is that wartime presidents have more power and he doesn't care who stands in his way. He's going to use that power to detain journalists and jail political opponents ahead of the midterms claiming them to be traitors, then he's going to set himself up to run for a third term. If he succeeds, he'll have total control. Democratic leaders will be in jail, journalists will be silenced, and the national guard will forcefully search your home for any second amendments you might have lying around as they deliver our ballots at gunpoint. How do I know? Because that's what tyrants do. The US is in the midst of a political coupe and it's imperative that the situation be viewed from that paradigm. Drop any pretense that this administration is anyone's ally, they're not. They're a rogue administration attempting to seize total control of the US.

I don't agree with tariffing canada. That wasn't a good move to do that to our ally. Causing unessary problems for no reason.

Y'all Canada going to put tariffs on USA really y'all still dnt get it right you dumb Canadian Trudeau the reason Trump put a tariffs again let me explain myself it's because of Cartel's for stoping crossing fentanyl from your border if you dnt stop from y'all part of the bargain of letting Cartel's crossing drugs n trafficking from ur country to USA country ok
