Not a fan of Trudeau, I was actually relieved that he resigned but man! Very well spoken man he is! Canada strong!

As a Dutch man i stand with Canada

Trudeau hate The Russians but why retaliate at the American people. If President Trump is dumb like he said why our we in debt? All garbage to threaten the USA. If Americans stand for Canada right now Russia and China combined military will take over the US in the future.\nNo war for all. Peace on Earth. Trump is the man. #AmericaStrong

This man closed Canadas parliament and gave a Nazi war criminal a standing ovation. No one respects him, he is purposely destroying our country. The war is against Nazi liberals not America. Save us from this tyrant!!! Save Canada! Do not be fooled, he has erased Christianity and given corporations full control, he is EVERYTHING they accuse Donald Trump of being and WORSE! America is our last hope!!!!! I will die fighting to restore our democracy in Canada!

I effectively spent a chunk of my childhood in America with relatives. I treasured these memories, but now all the feelings of wonder and happiness when thinking of my visits to America have faded. Now I just think of how selfish it was to sabotage Canada. American private equities want to rock our system and buy up all they can and so I am happy we are watching for this. I think Donald did this to try and buy up Canadian companies. This should be made illegal. I am willing to suffer for up to pull the plug on all resources and energy going to America “suddenly” do they have no time to adapt and collectively suffer. We even produce the ingredient you need for your nuclear weapons and otherwise need to get this from Russia. Canada has the ability to help our allies get nuclear weapons to protect against “America as our #1 enemy now”. Will we share too secret info with you when Trump clearly seems to be working with Russia? Putin dream for NATO to break down and now Trump ours that I to action . Trump wants everyone to spend money on military to fuel the American military industrial complex, something each and every huge tech company you have participated. You have essentially been taken over by a global entity that doesn’t care about democracy. We are going to manufacture our own weapons to have zero dependency on America. That makes no sense to buy weapons from the country threatening to invade you. \n\nHow will America feel to be totally alone in the global stage all under the power of one unstable man with multiple personality disorders. Trump things Putin is Americas friend and meanwhile in Russian media America spoken of as enemy number one. Meanwhile, America is 30% full of people with such little education in politics that they do not even know what is considered red flags to democracy. The 20% needed to shift will see the light once the worst man made intentional recession begins and the billionaires buy up 30% of your homes and buildings. Nothing at all will be outside of billionaire and corporate control and now all your data is in AI. how did all American value fall in just one month. Anyone not questioning this now, ai promise you is being blackmailed or is corrupt. \n\nThe bureaucracy prevents dictatorship. Now Trump is removing this. Just listen to project 2025. America is fully on track.

Trudeau you are a smart strong man. Canada needs u … don’t leave

Common man, Trudeau is acting like a kid, what is that ? Why did he respond to the raise of taxes ? \nFor me, he should be negocating with Trump administration's, he did not do enought, what a joke.\nI' am from Canada and I need Trudeau to go away ; may be Trump is doing this because Trudeau has done too much against Trump, we need a new administration to talk with Trump.

Oops, orange man might have made Canada great again. ?

Trudeau does not represent Canadians. He has had a minority government for years. Trudeau was finally forced to resign months ago. He should not be speaking on our behalf. He suspended parliament and refuses to call an election. No decision / agreement can be made re. Tariffs, etc. because technically we have no leadership right now. Tariffs have been threaten for months, and the Liberals have made no moves to do what’s right for Canada. He is using this as an opportunity to regqin power. He is not a man of the people.

Dear Canada. We the people the good citizens of these divided states do not condone what trump is putting your country and the rest of the world through! More than 80% of us hate trump and his evil lawless deeds! We are no longer free here! We are under the thumbs of an evil dictator and his panzy the riches man in the world! They are destroying this country bit by bit and quickly! They and the republicans in congress have sided with them! I’m am saddened that you great friends and all citizens are no facing his dictatorship follies! trump is not American! He never has been! Musk worked his magic with skylink and stole the votes from the democrats! Erased millions of our votes east as pie! I respect mr trudou and we hear his plea! His sorrow and I hope he and all who read this in Canada realize that the hood American here never wanted this but we can’t stop him with the way he and our judicial system is erasing our constitution! It’s eroding daily as if it never existed!! We are truly sorry for the pain he’s putting you through! Know that the 80 percent of Americans still stand with Canada Mexico Ukraine the EU and the rest of the world he’s punishing ?

He sounds very manipulative. And like he's having a temper tantrum. He can miss me with trying to play on people's emotion and act like Canada cares for Americans. Canada doesn't even want this man. All you trump haters and those who don't do research and believe the media are desperately trying so hard to see light and positivity where it done exist. What can anyone take away that America doesn't have right now. 70% of the population is damn near homeless and the avg job pays 14$ a hr. We already can't afford food way before trump got elected if our president thinks this is best then trust him\nWe want to much quick solutions. It's going to take a fight to make America great again ❤ time is everything. You can't expect no one to wave a magic wand and undo 12 yrs of democratic chaos. We have people that don't understand their gender. For years America has been every other countries sugar daddy! ENUFF. I SAY MORE TARRIFS❤

Congratulations to canada for having such a head of your state. he really is a great man

Trudeau is 10X the man and leader than Trump. The contrast is real. Canada we stand with you against this moron as he drags the US into an economic freefall which could very easily result in millions of lost jobs, increased cost of goods - including gas, market items, cars, lumber and more. A tariff is a tax on Americans. Trump is planning on using those tariff dollars to help offset the actual tax cut for the billionaires. Tuck Frump. Resist the ignorant fool.

CANADA ?? HAS A TRUE PATRIOT FOR A PRESIDENT!!!\nHE LOVES HIS COUNTRY & HIS PEOPLE!!!!❤\nHE'S A REAL MAN!!!!!\nUNLIKE, THE LOW LIFE, SCUMBAG USA\nHAS!!!!!\nTRAITOR TRUMP HAS ALWAYS BEEN \nPSYCHOTIC, DISGUSTING, DELUSIONAL & A LIER!!!!! PLAINLY, PUT- \nTRAITOR TRUMP IS TRULY THE MOST \nVILE EXCUSE, FOR A HUMAN BEING!!!!!!!! ?

Canada should not be too economically dependent on the United States.Canada must have a strong economic position with countries around the world.The United States no longer considers Canada a friend.The United States under the leadership of a man who is arrogant and wants to do whatever he wants.The United States should not have arrogant leaders destroying its allies.Trump is just a piece of rotten wood that will be melted by water.The United States should not let a piece of wood lead the country..

I love this man!!! I want to move to Canada where they have a real human as a leader, not an orange cartoon character!!

Trudeau has had his up and downs in Canadian politics over the years, with the ever present divide between Conservatives and Liberals here in Canada, but one thing is for sure, he's a true statesman, who speaks with wisdom from the heart, and for that is respected around the world. Trump would be smart to take notes from Trudeau, a man with considerably more skill, etiquette and experience in the field of political leadership, both hear at home, and on the world stage.

As a Canadian we don’t support this corrupt prime minister who destroyed canada. He’s the reason we are getting punished. This spineless man is the reason people in canada suffer because he’s a terrible leader!

Don't be fooled Canada has been using tariffs on American goods for decades, it's not new and this isn't some bold great leader doing the right thing. He's a baby stomping his feet because he wants to tariff America and not be taxed back. He's not a leader and he's not a man. He's a little boy doing tiny petty things. He was fine when the gravy train made him a profit, he's mad because the free money just ran out.

Today I am a senior living in Beautiful Vancouver Canada ?? \nI am fortunate to be here because my Uncle as a young man \nGrowing up in Belfast paid a fee of 10dollars to qualify \nFor Passage to Toronto . He started work as a Navy on the railway\nHe told the story of standing on the pavement at Bloor street watching \nThe building of The Royal York getting built \nHe promised himself one day He would have a steak dinner there\nWhich was very ambitious .\nHe worked long and hard til his retirement at age 60yrs\nHe kept his promise not only to have a steak dinner there\nBut he became wealthy and was a Patron until he died in 1982\nHis encouragement for myself my two brothers with our families \nalso our widow mother\nTo come to Canada proclaiming to his dying day\n*Canada to be The Best Country in The ? World\nWhat a privilege to live in this wonderful democratic Land \nSo proud of our President Justin Trudeau \nMary Canada ??

Canada is 347 0ut of 348, global container ports, Trudeau stymied growth, infrastructure, and Canadas future, he blames the USA, for his only push three issues, LBGt, carbon tax and Dei... Why no new industries built in Canada, we essentially only sell cars and oil to the USA at 20% discount. Try buying Canadian, but these are all foreign products, because Canadian bureaucracy and poor productivity, ie, unions and government employees all at home. EXAMPLE, after owning hunting rifles for sixty year, Trudeau minions, contacted my at least six time when I attempted to renew my firearms licence, even phoning my wife for a old man... Go figure, Trudeau only knows how to Hire voters... The problem is Trudeau, you voted for it so now you will pay!!!

Trump is trying to end war that’s why he wants to make peace with Russia! And there are a LOT of rude Canadians just as Americans! I don’t think Canada and America ever been allies or close friends HONESTLY speaking! But what Trudeau is making a point, this will not go well for everyone! Wow this handsome man knows French as well! How smart of him!

CANADA WILL BE WELCOMED IN THE EU : we ALL love the Canucks! \nZelenskiy is a man without a suit\nDonald is a suit without a man\nJustin is a man with a suit.

My admiration to Mr Trudeau for his words. That's how an honorable man speaks. Canada will stay strong!

CNN reporters are just so annoying and frustrating to hear. Props to Justin, this man knows his shit. We stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine, and with all the Americans that did not sign up for this lunatic!! From EU.

Canada and the European states are allies of the USA - not slave-countries.\nTrump - the best man of Putin and China!

He’s my Prime Minister!!! ??. Canada has done everything trump wanted but trump (true to form) has moved the goal posts. He never intended to honour his agreement with my country. ??. He’s a dishonourable man and he violated his own free trade agreement with Mexico the US and Canada. We are moving on from trusting the US. I’ve cancelled plans to vacation in the US. I will only buy Canadian or from our trusted allies (EU China Japan etc). I love the US but there are some very bizarre and stupid people in your country. Your greatest weakness. God help us all.

I As an American citizen can only hope that we would have a president in office with the intelligence, compassion and dignity that PM Trudeau has. At this time I am truly ashamed of my country. Especially the ones that put this hateful, revenge seeking, criminal monster in our White House. I stand with you 100% Canada. I also hope that maybe within the next year, trump will be gone. I don't know how or where but just gone. As intelligent as prime minister Trudeau is I have to disagree with one comment he made. trump is NOT a smart man. He is nothing but a 34 count convicted felon, rapist and criminal wannabe dictator. I shudder at the thought of the end of his four year disaster. What will our country do when we have no allies whatsoever. He loves russia and putin, His puppet master. He does not understand that Russia has never been our friend, is not our friend. And never will be our friend. He just loves putin because He wants to be just like him. He is the United States very own Adolf Hitler. Also , I have removed our flag from my front yard that I so proudly displayed my entire life. It will be raised again but only after this nightmare called trump is gone! Please accept the apology from millions of Americans that stand with you. We are truly sorry and we are suffering with you. God help us. And God Bless Canada ❤

Trudeau is a joke....what an amazing uneducated man that Canada has....MAGA !

Says the most hated man in Canada to the most hated man in America.

Intelligence, wisdom, patriotism…why can’t US have a leader like Trudeau. (But Trump is NOT a smart man. That comment was meant to praise the boy.) Go, Canada!

Canada, the American people stand with you. Personally I wish that Justin Trudeau was our president! Although I have to disagree with you, Trump is not at all a smart man. In fact he is the exact opposite. He is an imbecile! Undoubtedly, he is the worse thing that has ever happened to to the United States! The people of America needs to get rid of Trump!\n\nBut thank you, Justin Trudeau, for standing up for Canada and all of your reactions is just! Continue to defend your country. You are doing an outstanding job!

That man is an ass hat. One of the worst leaders Canada has ever had.

Are there any independent critical thinkers left out there that don't have faith in political sides?but instead live in reality? this guy has absolutely trashed Canada - and all anyone here can do is worship his manipulation? man - the brainwashing is strong stuff indeed... the people of the USA are just too easily directed- sad.

I am Canadian. My heart breaks for Canada. The US always being our ally, now it will become our enemy only because of one man's unjustified and irrational move. God help us!!

Your a quit-er... U gave up onyour country because u are a coward ... And I will make it compulsory that Canada is a national security threat and audited and reconstructed by the is American country and say fuck the wanta be Americans imposters.... A hustler dont care about the hustle... It just so happens to be the middle man between a guy and his money.. !

?Zeleneski is smart he dragged EU?? & ??Canada to War that's not belong to them. Ain't he good sales man as President Trump said?

I may not have voted for Justin Trudeau. But I respect him for not bowing to the orange man and standing up for Canada the true north strong and free. We will get through this the world is with us ??

These tariffs have nothing to do with Fentanyl. Fentanyl is the excuse needed to apply tariffs which otherwise would be illegal. Canada needs to start trading more with other countries. The USA is not a reliable trade partner when one man can completely FK the system.

We all know it's not about the drugs. He wants Canadas resources, he wants Canada. Trump is a baby man. The worst president. Poor Americans. Trump will ruin America and side with Russia.

God how I wish this man was my President. Please know, Canada, that millions of Americans like myself are disgusted by the traitor in the White House.

I don't care what side of the fence you sit on. I did not need to hear this man speak to already know Canada was, but may yet be, our greatest ally and trading partner. I have no idea what possessed Mr. Trump to decide to stab our allies in the back, but it was not something good. 27.5% of voting age adults voted for him. How many of them were serenaded by hollow promises and a good slogan. Perhaps all of the mud slinging and Russian media interference helped? If you add in our more studious teenagers, truly reformed felons, and immigrants who actually deserve a gold card, that number plummets to less than 25%. I won't ask people to wake up, if you are reading this you are already more than capable of finding out that I speak only the hard truth. This means less than a quarter of america wanted this. This means your vote and opinions DO count. I know it is incredibly difficult to reach for and find answers in a world where your president or primary candidate throws 'fake news' in your face on a regular basis. He is actually telling the truth. When he is not telling you is that he is a primary enabler of 'fake news'. To him, only his word is law, only his opinion matters, only he deserves to be on top, and he deserves authority over all of your lives. Do the right thing, we all have a civil duty to understand our candidates to the very best of our ability. When a man has been convicted of dozens of felonies, and we tell you that this is only what we were willing to expose. You may want start believing us. The genuine facts of his past are unilaterally corrupting to our children and good people alike. Do not let the american people repeat their mistakes, force Mr. Trump to atone for his mistakes. No not empower him to sweep them under the rug for the sake of his own arrogance, because that is exactly what he is doing by trying to dismantle the CIA and FBI. These two institutions are shining examples of America's pursuit of freedom and justice. Freedom to keep billionaires from corrupting the morals of our children. Freedom to know that the rule of law is immutable, our constitution is not just a paper with fancy traditional sentiment. Even if the law may sometimes be bent for the sake of decency, forgiveness, and the pursuit of 'united we stand', our constitution cannot. Amendments require the FULL support of nearly all Americans, not 27.5% of unrestricted adults.

uk will trade with canada no problem and ukraine \nfrom a scot cant see the canadians backing down \nMinister Justin Trudea what a leader first time i have ever listened closely to this guy top man\nam sure the people in america in shock what is happening with their country

JUSTIN TRUDEAU IS ACTUALLY THE HATED MAN IN CANADA EVEN HE NEED 10 BODYGUARDS TO MOVE AROUND FOR HIS DAILY LIFE AS PM OF CANADA WOULD CANADA CITIZENS THAT DEPENDING ON AMERICA FOOD TO SAVE MONEY AND STAY ALIVE NOW TARIFFS ON AMERICA GOODS HOW HAPPY CANADA PEOPLE BE WITH HOA HAS MORE POWER THAN HIS OWN CITIZENS.POOR CANADA CITIZENS MAY CHOOSE CHEAP FOOD TO SURVIVE JUSTIN TRUDEAU EVIL DICTATORSHIP.\nJUSTIN TRUDEAU HAS DONE NOTHING GOOD FOR CANADA AND HIS CITIZENS EVEN HIS EXISTENCE ON THE WORLD LIKE A BULB SWITCH HE THERE AND THE NEXT HE GONE FOR YEARS NOTHING FAMOUS GOOD HE DONE RECORDED BY INTERNATIONAL REPORTERS 0%.\nCANADA HAS ITS OWN HOMELESS PEOPLE WILD ON CANADA STREET BUT INTERNATIONAL PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT.

People in canada want trudeau out. Man is a clown

Damn, Canadians hate this guy but he's basically the political Kanye. He can get as much hate as he wants but he's still the best celebrity out there in his own mind.\n\nJust saying... if I'm Canada, im not going to try to rally support of the American people by falsely threatening that we will suffer at Canada's hand because of retaliatory tariffs. Thats just silly...\n\nThis man should talk about building his own economy instead of complaining that his benefactor is asking for aome money back.

Y'all are so happy about the man who destroyed Canada. Hilarious ??

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

Oh man, 2 months in the seat and he has already become enemies with Canada, Ukraine, Europe, China, Mexico, Greenland and...and allied with Russia. ? - Wait until 4 years has passed. The world will have turned upside down and inside out before this orange checks out. Let's see how happy the Americans will be after a time choosing this maniac. Huge misstake. Huge.

Canada... you should hang onto this man as long as you can. He's a strong, stand-up man. Apologies for the IDIOT in the U.S.
