I love Canada and Canadians. Thank you for being you! You will prevail. It’s unfortunate that our leadership, here in the US, is comprised of predatory, transactional, grifters, and a$$holes.

I'm moving to Canada. Trump truly scares me!

To all Canadian's, I did not vote for him and tried to convince others of how bad his was, but here we are. I love Canada. I have been to Canada several times and the people have been so warm and welcoming. It is beyond sad to see this happening. He's a traitor and I don't understand why someone can't arrest him and his gang of thugs. Trust me there are a lot of people here who do not want this. I'm a 71 yr. old with lots of medical issues. I wish I could have done more to stop this. I've always wanted to see Banff. Hopefully, one day I will be welcomed back.

Half of Americans are WITH YOU CANADA, the other half of Americans are with Russia!

What tarrifs does Canada already impose? Over 200% on some goods. This is all done to encourage economic goals.

Texan and Cold War veteran here. Canada has fought beside us in every major conflict and a number of small ones as well and has always been a good friend to the American people. I will do everything I can to support Canada and Ukraine and any other ally our current dis-administration attempts to bully. \n\nExcellent speech Mr. Prime Minister, you are what leadership and integrity look like and Canadians can be proud to call you their own. You are polite, we are not. You are loyal, we are not. You have guts, we currently do not. God keep your land glorious and free!

From Massachusetts. We do not want this either!!!!!?. We stand with Canada more than our own government….meaning this President who got elected with less than a majority vote. Even his supporters are raging against him. I wish that there was something more that we could do as individual American citizens.?? I will pray for this insanity to end.

Canada spitting bars !!!!

china, europe, canada and BRICS can do some business together.....

Spoken like a TRUE PRESIDENT!\nEdit...I am an American, and our government and its leader are wrong and misguided.\nI stand with Canada.

Canada, you are welcome to join the EU!

Canada just be the 51st state cuz you’re going down.

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.

Retaliatory tarrifs against USA are necessary, but a better impact would be achieved with significant but similar retaliatory increase in sanctions against Putin. In that way, Putin will be more likely to tell his boy to stop the attack against Canada.

Drumpf's best friend is the Russian monster.he is screwing American business people,farmers,builders, and every other American citizen.Thank you for speaking the truth,his worshippers will not believe you,but the rest of us know what is truth.\n And I love Canada,God bless and protect you all.I did not vote for the orange menace,he is now trying to blame the effects of his decisions on the previous administration.

Trudeau is an idiot king. This speech from a guy that has been pushing for the legalization of hard drugs across Canada and leaving our borders wide open. He has pissed away Canada’s prosperity on wasteful spending and his climate agenda. This buffoon has zero credibility. He is an actor and puts in a good show. I’ll give him that. Mr tough guy. He is laughable. We need a real leader in Canada.

Canada is not that important ?..

40 million people live in Canada. I’m sure USA would do alright without Canada. This clown speaks on Americans like he is one, truly disrespectful. This guy is a big talker like Obama but soft. People like him are what causes stagnation and unemployment. Trump sells strength security fairness. Sorry if it hurts your little feelings.

Lol...?...the whiney Justin is digging Canada a deep grave

As ah Américan im proud of Canada

very well said canada like. usa is acting dumb

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

Trudeau hates Canada ?

Americans are tired of subsidizing Canada. Let’s be done.

There is not much to do. Trump is constantly lying to his people. He said again that American banks cannot go to Canada and that Canadian banks can go to the United States. Which is totally false. There are American banks in Canada. There are not many since they have to follow Canadian rules just like Canadian banks have to follow Canadian rules

If I didn't have commitments and family here in the US, I'd move to Canada

As an American US veteran, I love this President. Go Canada. We love you ❤️❤️❤️

I speak as a Californian. I am so, so terribly sorry, Canada. I never voted for tRump, ever. I hate him in every way. This is all so heartbreaking. ?? Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, for standing up for your entire country. Our president is destroying America and handing us over to Russia. ? I stand with Canafa, Ukraine, Mexico and democracies of the world.

From México with love. Canada ?? ?

Oh Canada we stand on guard for thee ??????

Trudeau , you made canada a bad place before all this... You made to expansive and didnt care...

Trudeau is Canadas weakest link

I’m a us citizen and I’m urging my president to not impose any tariff to Canada because we both countries are a very good friends and neighbors.Canada is always in support of us and vice versa so please Mr.trump stop your tariffs to Canada.please do not break relations with Canada and Europe.thank you.

Isn’t Canada infested with Fentanyl addicts?

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

In Canada asked this man to resign? He's the best representative of that country my friends from Canada you should reconsider letting this man go is way more articulate than our moron in Chief our orange headed prize

Will CNN show the tariffs Canada has on Americans? Will Canada send it's to children to Ukraine for foreign soil?

No one is asking, what are the tariffs for... I obviously you see all of these people in the comments just walking and basing their judgment off of what they are seeing off of CNN etc. do your own research people, this man is bananas... I would assume most people in Canada are not very happy with this man crippling their country

Hi, American here. I support Ukraine ?? and I support Canada ?? as well... Prime Minister Trudeau's speech makes me want to head up North...

As an American, let me respond with, I don't need anything Canada is exporting. Pretty sure this will hurt Canadians far more than it's gonna hurt Americans. For those of you on here that might not grasp the situation, Canada has a higher value of exports into America than America has exports into Canada by over $100 Billion. Good Luck Canada.

Dude if what Trump is so bad for America and it isn’t going to hurt Canada why do you care. You are the the Dictator you liberal. Good America will just cut all Canadas aide

6:43 Sure we stuck to our word but that's irrelevant. Dump is intent on getting his hands on Canada's natural resources because he thinks leaving any money on the table is criminal. He thinks it's a failing that we haven't treated our environment like an oligarch's playground, selling off everything to the highest bidder. This is what he has TOLD you he is planning for America and he's created this trade war smokescreen to keep everyone distracted while he does it. He won't be done until all of North America and Greenland are barren and there's no profit left to make.

My state has a bigger gdp than canada

How about zero tariffs on goods between Canada and the USA. If you folks but from using the amount we buy you folks equal that amount.

We (most of the American people) don't want this, either! I call and write to my two Senators and my Congresswoman at least four times a week. I support Canada's reaction to our ridiculous President's actions. I don't think all the Republican leadership supports this, but they are weak and scared of Trump.

Keep your shit Canada we don't need LEECHES and spineless allies.

Americans wake up ! Canada is your biggest ally - this is disgusting. And what Trump is doing is in a way what Putin is doing to Ukraine. Why would Canadians want to be the 51st state? They are their own country and they are proud.

Is Canada better after Trudeau or was it better before?

I love Canada ?

I'm with you Canada from Texas
