If you really want to do something for canada ? Ban immigration from India send all those back without documents.... stop importing indian students from punjab.

American here. You only have a country because of us. Let’s see how long your guys survive without us.

The world has to prepare for the world without trade with the US.

Trump is shaking up the status quo. Wouldn’t be getting Canadian investment in helping at their border without putting pressure on them.

GOD bless Canada from the UK, always our friend and always our ally, without preconditions

without US, there will be no jokes everyday for the world.

As an American i dont want a trade deficit with canada. Get even or get crushed buddy. We move calculated, dont think our administration didnt crunch the numbers. We WILL figure it out without you buddy. Your people would travel down to the states to shop for the past decades. What does what say?

Let's be honest, it took a US President for Canadian Prime Minister to act tough on drugs and illegal immigration. Things he should have been doing in the first place without any international pressure. It shows the absolute disrespect he has for Canadian citizens demanding the same.

Canadians, Half of Americans do not want this! Little more than half of American citizens subscribed to the FAFO by voting for Trump, ??! Please bring penalties without holding back. 47 and his voters must learn. 47 won't. Our American citizens need to learn. Respect to Canada and Canadians. ?

American farming is genuinely screwed without Canadian potash. The number of American citizens who will starve is going to increase drastically. Trump is Literally raising the price of food.

I support this more than Trump, and I'm sure the majority of Americans agree at this point.\n\nI can't stand the hypocrisy on immigration though. Canada has us as a buffer from a country desperate to get in, and they are still allowed to have very secure borders without getting flack.\n\nWhen America just doesn't want the faucet of immigration on full blast, we are the bad guys.\n\nThe Fentanyl excuse is absurd when it comes to Canada and the tariffs. It's a legitimate concern from the southern border. The northern border has never been an issue...

The actions of Donald Trump are isolating and weakening America. Anyone who is being completely honest would not deny this. This ONLY benefits Russia. Is a compromised president going to inflict generational damage to America and its allies without challenge from within? As long as the president is acting on the best interests of Russia, America is no longer a partner, or a friend.

As a Canadian have have often been at odds with Trudeau's views and actions but I have to give credit where it it due, this is a great response delivered with respect to the American people and without hate or malice.

Spoiler alert, noone gives a damn where you are from and what your propagandized opinion is no matter what side you are on. All you followers without your own mind is why this world is so messed up. Blame yourselves sheep

Useless theory without action causes countries go down.

USA desperately needed planes diverted on 9/11, our airspace was shut down, Canada was right there for us, to take on massive unknown risk not knowing if planes had bombs; Canada entered WWII, years prior to the US, barley spoken of yet they stood tall without hesitation to fight for freedom and for QEII's funeral it was the Royal Canadian mounted police who were first in procession, a massive honor bestowed by the Queen, and much more. We can still banter with one other as always have + Canadians know that sane Americans, do not represent this madness!

The world can go on without America, Trump and his MAGA supporters need to realize that. They be acting as if they are some kind of vital source of energy / resources when their #1 export is war & conflict.

It's refreshing to hear the Leader of a Country, speak clearly and honestly without unneccessary superlatives. Trump could learn alot from Mr Trudeau. God Bless Canada and God Help the United States of America!

Couldn't we listen to the actual Press Conference, not 'splained? I can listen to French without understanding a word. Merde.

Don't recognize that lispy fella without black shoe polish on his face. Nice hair

Shut your lying ass up. If you want to work with America carry your own weight. But like you said in your meeting with Trump few months ago without America your economy will crash. So don't bite the hand that feeds you if you know what's best for you

I wish CNN would just let the press conference go without the reporters ruining it with commentary

All of yall please move to Canada. You hate it so much here and cherish other countries without any knowledge of what is true. Bye bye. Have a nice trip.

Trump is attacking NAFTA and the trilateral agreement without building a self sustaining economic system first.

Canada's president can give a concise speech without ever using teleprompters. Maybe the U.S. can become a province of Canada.

The world can do much better without EUROPEAN AMERICA. CANADA, MEXICO and CHINA will do much better without EUROPEAN AMERICA

We can do without you Canada

The ChiComs, working with their Liberal minions, have made sure that any election will be rigged. Trump is trying to save Canada because he will send Troops into Canada to eject the Chinese military. He wants to do it with laws by getting Canada to join the USA. If that does not happen, he will use the military to do it, and Canada will be seen as the enemy of the USA allied with China. Trudeau admitted that without the welfare the USA has been providing to Canada, your economy will collapse. The Bank of Canada is bankrupt. The Canadian dollar is about to collapse. How will you feel next year when you need two dollars to buy what one dollar buys now? And plan on having fewer dollars to start with because your carbon tax, your sales tax, your income tax are all going up. WAY up. This is what happens when you decide to compete with a USA that is unshackled. The USA can produce more of our own oil than we can use, and we will sell the extra to YOUR foreign customers cheaper than you can produce it. Then you will be BEGGING for a pipeline. So Trump invited Canada to become a member of the most successful and powerful union of sovereign states in history, something that even our own territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, and all the others do not have. An invitation to be a bona fide member. Why do you think that is? Minerals? The USA has all the minerals we need. We have more oil, coal, and natural gas than any nation also, and we can produce and refine it cheaper than any country can. So Canada was invited to become a state so Trump could peacefully eject the ChiComs from North America. And did you accept? No. Did you say no thank you? No. You gave us the finger and said f&$k you to Trump. We hear you Canada. But now is not the time for pain, that comes later.

USA now is russia without RSI!

It's more than time for Canada to turn themself to electric Chinese car at around CAD 5K with quality comparable to Tesla and so many more affordable goods and products from diverse countries of Asia including cheaper chips, GPU, CPU, etc... with the green, affordable and available electricity in huge quantity who could place Canada at the first rank in AI development without speaking about it Geo position reducing latency, Crypto mining at the lower cost around the entire world, the world largest rear earth elements and so many more. By stopping to cooperate with a vicious country which has the philosophy of eliminating the concurrency until to collaborate for the exponential growth of each other's. It's clear that the target of the US was to force the Canada to be producing goods and service to the US consummation at a price so low that will have turn Canada in a third world country which the US could invade or exploit as it will, like they did all around the world by bombing and even committing genocide using proxy to stole the resource of so many nations around the world. So obviously they deal with Russia on how to rob the richest from Europeans nation like Ukraine as it is clear that the US is now looking to make the entire world economy fall for their own profit. Canada must lead in the fight against the American imperialisms pushing for a world embargo against the US and become at the same time one of the richest nations in the world if not the richest one. while for the US citizens to invest all their money in BTC to ensure that they will not fall down with their government and economy.

Very well said and without looking at a script!

French d-slap on his way out of office! ?? talking the most without stutter after 8 years in office ? ?. Wants Canadians to remember his only act.

Cry baby, cry!!! Grow up Canada, we can live without you, but you can't live without USA. GO TRUMP!!!

the current trade deal with Canada and Mexico is something trump bragged about when he negotiated & signed it 6 years ago. Trump called it the USCMA. Less than 1% of fentanyl comes across the northern US border. we can't refine light crude oil we pull out of the ground here so we buy more than 50% of our heavy crude oil and natural gas from Canada. Canada will turn off the pipes and sell the heavy oil and NG to Europe. The second oil supply was Mexico who plans to sell their oil in Europe too. It will be extra cold in the midwest and east coast this winter without fuel oil.

Trump and his cronies are liars and want nothing more than to become permanent leaders in a country controlled by billionaires. The world needs to work out how to thrive and prosper without the USA.

canada just good in talking ..70% of us money goes to canada..without u.s canada will not survive..trump is right..

It’s comical for Canadian government to think it has any power to make threats of an economic crisis in the United States.You’re economical stability and military protection revolves around trade from the United States.The deficit needs to be equal or your the grifters not the American tax payers footing the bills to keep your country from collapse.America will be just fine without crooks like Trudeau.

Our president isn't risking anything you idiot! He's literally saving us from any further fraud. We'll be just fine without you. You literally have no legs to stand on . Thanks, come again

Trump, a lazy and arrogant man who sit in the White House signing executive orders without look into all the facts precisely.

just being able to string together two sentences without mistake or gaff....almost forgot what that looked like.

Bro is literally trying to convince us that we won’t survive without Canadian fertilizer. It’s shit, it’s literally cow shit and we can get by just fine with American fertilizer ?

Your General said this is isolating Canada. No it isn't. The UK, Europe and Asia are very open to trade. Indeed many have existing deals which can only grow.\n\nI hear that there are a great many frustrated Americans. Americans who don't want this trade war. Unfortunately Your commander in chief is Your voice on the World stage. His choices are effectively Your choices. HE represents your country. It's him we have to deal with, or not, as the case may be.\n\nUntil you can wrestle the House, the Senate and ultimately the Oval, off these walking-disasters The US with edge closer and closer to being a Paraiah state.\n\nGood luck with that. You're going to need it. The World is already making alternative plans wrt defence, trade and political ideology. All without the US... think about that....

Well spoken Mr Trudeau. I am proud to be Canadian. I feel sad for both countries. Can't believe that no judge is declaring the National Security argument as unjustified. I thought this was not possible to impose this without voting it properly if national security is not a real threat under the US constitution... And the argument of trade deficit is such a weird concept. Would Trump agenda be more evil here, and use economic force to force Canada to annex them because they want our resources?

Well Justin, after listening to you smug listing of all the measures you’ve taken to reduce fentanyl traffic as well as “other” traffic and implemented US requests for cleaning up border issues. I ask: “Had the US not made these requests, would you have done the neighbourly thing and cared enough for your neighbour to have monitored what criminals in your country were up to? It appears you had to be reminded of your duties inherent in the ‘office of being a good neighbour’.\nYou are STILL weak and the mouthpiece of ‘controlling interests’ in Europe who in the end will toss you out on the street like some sucked dry orange and forget your fawning presence ever existed. Man up and at least try to leave an honourable legacy for Canadians. The BOC will then be able to fulfil its mission of printing its own money without bringing Canada into the slave-pit of European Banksters.

Is a clever way for both sides to increase taxes without people complaining?

Outstanding speech without the need for a reader prompt.

It's surreal.. We were just minding our own business when suddenly a US President threatened our sovereignty as a nation. Without warning. We have no anger against American people.

The problem here isn't temporary. Tariffs may or may not be. But when Canada, Mexico, and other countries build alternate trade infrastructure and strike deals that exclude America, this becomes near irreversible and will hurt America's economy well after Trumps term. And that's just trade and economy.\n\nThen there are many relationships worldwide which are already affected, and world leaders are poised to move on without America - leaving it isolated. The US is the most powerful country in the world and can survive alone, but even so, no country flourishes without international partnerships that both parties can rely on. Like Putin, nobody can rely on Trumps word.\n\nHe is destroying everything. And the American public are largely sitting back and watching it. \n\nWake up before it's too late.

Canada, UK, Ukraine, Turkey and EU (without Hungary) should make some New Union

He spoke well. Assertive and respectful. Protective of Canada without attacking the American people. Good balance.
