Careful, he'll say you started it. I'm an American who spent time playing in the CFL. The people of Canada couldn't be nicer or a more fair people. They are reasonable, smart & polite. Please America don't be fooled. THEY WILL NOT STAND FOR YOUR ARROGANT ENTITLEMENT. #FAAFO I stand with 'Oh Canada'!

Trump speaks two languages. Dumb and Dumber!\nThank you Canada! Many of us stand with you. Hoping we can remove Trump soon and get back to fair trading with our great neighbors!

I respect this man for standing up to the American tyrant.

Unfortunately this well founded , intellectually solid argument will be completely lost on an illiterate buffoon that currently occupies the oval office. Trump stands only for a self seeking dictatorship. He lack the basic brain power to appreciate what he has done.

Thank you Mr Prime Minister, we ALL stand together with you in this fight. ???

I stand with Canada

God bless the brave people of Canada for standing up to our unstable president and vice president. I am sad for the country I call home. I am still at a loss and feel very unsettled that Donald Trump was elected president. His presidency is marked by retaliation and actions that are ego boosting for him. Yet, many people don’t see it this way ?‍♀️. I am hoping and praying that other countries remember that not everyone is on board with Donald Trump and his party.

What a real president! What an inteligent and dignified man. Portuguese stand by Canada and Ukraine

From Alabama to Mr. Trudeau. Trump is not my president and it surely is not my government! I voted against everything he stands for!

Go Mr Trudeau!!!\n\nGreat to see such leadership in standing up to the fool that is Trump.\n\nRational. Factual. Impactful.\n\nPlease world - start standing up to Trump’s idiocy like this. It is world class leadership. And sense.

I'm an American who is terrified of the future. I stand with Canada and the rest of the world. I pray that this will end before we are completely destroyed.

As an American we don’t stand with Russia we are a democracy we aren’t communist

Standing with ?? Canada. From ?? Lithuania and ?? Great Britain

It’s a sad times our government are only worried about themselves . They are able to ruin the country and do all of these because the United states is filled with hatred .The people of the United States somehow think that Our president working closely with our enemy ( Russia ) Is some type of alliance with working towards segregation toward other Americans they feel are less superior to other Americans . Some sort of race war or segregation. How far will we as Americans let this go on without stepping up.\nOr is this what the American really want.\nWill we stand up to this nonsense and hatred?

Well done Canada for standing up against this bully of Trump administration.

I would like to thank all the kind words from all over the world I see here. We as Canadians really appreciate it. It's going to be a tough time ahead for this country, but if no one else will stand up to Trump, we will.

Can't stand Trudeau, just like millions of Canadians can't either, but he spoke well here and is standing in for his peoples best interests for a change so i can't fault in for that

I did not vote for Trump. I am ashamed that I get put into the rest of the idiots group that voted for him. I stand with Canada.

I would like to see Canadian & Mexican representatives cooperate together and stand strong against this attack

We will stand by Canada all the way and will kick the stupid Trump and Vance out quickly.

I am an American and I stand with Canada and every other nation being harassed and bullied by the Trump!

As an American citizen, I stand with Canada & the Ukraine - not with Russia.

He's all about fighting for Canada but he won't take the make believe carbon tax off stand up for your people mister

We stand with you Canadians.

Greetings from Germany, we stand by your side. ❤❤❤ \nWe should defend our freedom and our common values together more than ever!

As an American I do not stand for how our president is leading our country and I am even more embarrassed after seeing a true leader such as Trudeau!

We Amreicans stand with Canada and apologize for the reckless government that has hijacked our democracy ! I know the majority of Americans support Canada and all of Europe too.

From Australia: be strong and keep standing up to the evil bully.

Canadian are strong and always stand with Americans, in all areas of matters....

well done Canada, hope Europe will do the samme at once. everyone should stand up to bullies

Canada's response to America's tariffs under Trudeau is a masterclass in balancing diplomacy with pragmatism. While the U.S. pursues a protectionist agenda, Canada stands resilient, leveraging strategic countermeasures and asserting its sovereignty. Trudeau's approach is not just about retaliating in kind; it’s a nuanced display of commitment to fair trade and a reminder that economic interdependence cannot be taken for granted. In a world where global relations are increasingly volatile, Canada’s measured response signals both defiance and cooperation, leaving the door open for a future where both nations can find common ground amidst the tension.

I would add the well being of the WORLD depends on what Canada and others do to stand up to Trump's bullying.

We don’t want this either The American people stand with Canada!

Black American here who stands with Canada and Mexico! frump is not a very intelligent man and the republicans and voters that stand with him are just as unintelligent.

Someone asked me . If Canada and USA went to war where would i stand. I would fight with canadians. Well it depends.... question what is the canadiam dollar worth? Hmmm... decisions... decisions

I still stand with my country America. We are just going through it at the moment with this crazy man in office.

U.S Army veteran I stand with Canada. I will never bow down to Russia like trump has.

The U.S “leaders” are choosing the wrong side of history here. The world is ready to stand up to them. Americans should be very worried about the global position Trump is putting them in.

Canada stand strong. Do trade with Ukraine. F**k Trump!

I’m still lost at how Trump supporters rationalize this mess… like for the self proclaimed “patriots” they really know how to spit on the constitution, the sacrifices of our ancestors during the revolution all the way through the Cold War. Trump is literally alienating us in 4k from allies and slipping into Russia’s pocket. Because he wants to be a dictator, and doesn’t give a damn about America or what it stands for. His family hasn’t even been here very long in all honesty, maybe that’s why he’ll sell us out to Russia. Saying otherwise means you live in a land of delusion where facts don’t exist. FYI, ignorance won’t save anyone

@CNN @Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, not my government, but all Americans and our allies, as well. It is reckless, and the current government is a dictatorship. They were all lies. Many of us knew that, others drank the Koolaid. I am sorry. I stand with our allies, especially @President Zelenskyy & all of Ukraine!

Thank you Mr. Trudeau I personally stand with progress.\n And Donald Trump is not progress.\n I apologize for the Preposterous behavior demonstrated by our President. To President zelinski. I also apologize for Trump. And I cannot wait until he is removed. We must do it legally and democratically. As far as our allies, Canada and Mexico.\nIt is my opinion donald trump is entering dementiand it's not fit for office

Apologies to our good neighbor Canada from one US citizen. Thank you for standing up to our corrupt, immoral, unstable president. Respect to our independent and admirable neighbor ❤??❤️??

Please know that half of the Americans do not support this pig. We love Canada. We love Mexico we love Europe we stand with you ❤

I stand with Canada , Ukraine and the rest of the world ?

As an American I stand with Canada

Well done, Canada! Stand up to the bully!

From Minnesota Iam standing with you Canada!! Trump does things impulsively Prayers, are needed.

Respect to Canada, we all stand with you. Brave coming out on the front foot like you have. I do have to add, it is not the American government alone, it’s the American people who voted Trump in. How the mighty have fallen. Making enemies with all the democracy countries around the world. I’m Danish born, living in Australia. Civil war is very likely as many republicans now see that America is isolating themselves to create a dictatorship. Us vs the world mentality. Politics has never been more entertaining. China is set to be the new world leader, I can’t see it any other way. The timeline has moved forward beyond belief.

Oh, these comments are just hilarious.\nI've not seen one comment in disagreement of the speech you just made. What happened to all of them? Someone sorted and took them all down to pretend like every single person that commented was standing behind Canada. Hilarious. Of course we know this will be tough. You do what you have to do and USA will do what USA has to do. As a US citizen I have NEVER felt welcome crossing your border legally to visit while on vacation. You Trudeau are a joke.
