Wow, I love the way Trudeau is honest with his people. America can't say the same. One thing Canada has is a leader who is for them. America is about to see how big a difference that actually makes in such times. We're divided while they're together.

Our people of America voting this damn guy into office, I don't get what was the appeal to have this type of leader for our nation. We are just in a sh^^ty place at this moment. This is not what America is about and sad to say this may be the destruction of our nation by having such poor leadership, how dare he spoke about Biden or Obama.

America- We don't hate you or your anthem. We just hate Donald Trump because he's an idiot. Hopefully in 4 years or less you will have a new leader to sort out all the problems he has created.

As an European I'm standing behind Canada and Mexico. America has voted a convicted criminal into the WH who always lies and only thinks about what is good for him. This is on the MAGA cult and those who didn't vote. Your so called leader is the biggest terrorist from within

The United States has become an unreliable world leader and trading partner, which will not put America first. The USMCA trade agreement between Canada, Mexico, and America, initially brokered and lauded by Trump as “terrific,” is now being scraped. The stated reason, a national security threat due to fentanyl originating from the Canadian border (approximately 43 pounds in 2024), is bogus. This pretend “security threat,” allows Trump to circumvent congressional oversight and undermine constitutional norms. Canada's historical contributions to the United States are extensive, including WWI, fighting Hitler in WWII for two years before they joined the fight, declaring war against Japan WWII after Pearl Harbour before America did, was 25% of D-Day’s landings, support during the Iranian hostage crisis, after 9/11, in Afghanistan, and during natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina and California wildfires. However, Canada is now being treated transactionally, with a lack of respect to a historical friend and ally.

Canada l stand with you and that rest of the Democratic world. Unfortunately we have an idiot in chief who doesn't have a blanking clue on how to run a botega yet alone in the United States of America.\nTo yours truly the felon in chief your days are numbered the American people will make it a priority to remove you from the white house along with the Maga bootlickers that support your blank toosh . Trudeau Mad Respect to you a true leader in chief of the free world.

Trump uses drugs as the reason we all know that is not true. Trump has to be the feared leader, as he cosy up to Putin. Trump likes isolation he wants America to be Russia allied We the people will survive but know that gaining our trust back will not be easy but we are up for the fight. We will not get in bed with a country that is siding with Putin

Bravo!?????? I am an American and I stand with Canada. Leaders from other countries around the world should be as strong as your leader Trudeau! This message could not be more clear or direct. And I’m glad Trudeau didn’t call him with president in front of his name. trump doesn’t deserve it. He is a disgrace to America and exactly what America is not about. No one knows how he could get here But it’s a nightmare that we are trying to wake up from. Trump has spread cancer in America and we are fighting for our lives. We are deeply sorry for all the pain we are causing people around the world. This is our fight and we unfortunately are making it everyone’s problem. We need help, so thank you for everything you are doing.

These world leaders are mad that they can't take advantage of America anymore. It's funny.

I hate being an American. I did what I could but failed. Countrymen voted against it, and well .. we are now all in this hell together. Left stuck and upset at all of this. I am proud of Canada and wish we had a more capable leader. I am so sorry to everyone else. Know its not everyone in america follows the goons about.

Trudeau is the sort of president we need in the USA not a lying parasite like the one we have now. In 1956 Khrushchev, then leader of Russia said that they would not have to fire a single shot to defeat America, that they would defeat America from within, and here we are.

Speaking as a kiwi wouldn't you like to have a leader rather than a giriftar in america

To all people who replying \nStop with comments about bullying \nLotta countries took billions from America \nAll trump is doing is collecting \nStop with the disrespect speech \nHe’s just being a leader collecting what’s right

This is a heartfelt plead and out of consern for our American freinds, please don't let this tryrant ruin you lives!\n\nAmerica is no longer the Leader of the Free World - Felon Trump First = Make America Gross Again!

As an American I am grateful to Canada and I will continue to buy Canadian products. The “leaders” of America are shameful bullies. So far, nearly every attempt that has been made to stop this madness ultimately gets turned over by someone in Trump’s pocket. Thank you for standing up to the bullies. I wish the best for you!

Trump is a moron and is destroying America. As long as he’s in office America is doomed. Lucky ass Canada with a leader that gives a shit.\n\nUnfortunately Trudeau is dropping facts, facts hold no space in Trump or his supporters brains.

Russia is seeing trump as a weak leader, and he is playing him to bomb America

This must be Trump's brilliant plan to get everyone to self-deport to a country that has political leaders that actually care about their citizens... Trump will later want credit for bankrupting America.. the biggest bankruptcy in history...never one bigger... And for all this Trump will want to have his profile added to Mt Rushmore... and no doubt hand himself a Medal of Honor... I'm surprised he hasn't given himself a Purple Heart, for taking a shot to an ear. Who voted for this demented man anyway?

You all around the world, making the mistake of siding with foolish leaders who's own public do not support them against Donald Trump--when the majority of Americans do--will feal the wrath of every single American, who is sick of being bullied by you. We do not have to pay your bills. We do not have to keep your country safe. Keep running your mouth, CNN and dividing this country and the world with your lies. Everyone knows Zelenskyy was disrespectful to Biden and Trump and Vance--who we owe nothing to. Ukraine is not an ally of ours. Ukraine will never be allowed to NATO. And all of you can enjoy the tariffs. We don't need you we don't model our behavior after you. You'll never be America. You will never understand what it means to be American. You will never come into our Oval Office and disrespect our president, Democrat, or Republican and get away with it. Shame on you for your lies! You know better but you get paid well. This is why your ratings are in the tank and only those lacking any logical critical thinking still watch you.

America , this is what a leader looks like, eloquent, smart, literate, honest. Not what you have skeaming, liar, treasonous, preditor and criminal. \n\nWhy republican voyers cannot see this disgusts me. If you cant see what damage he is doing. You are whats wrongbwith America , and you have no right to call yourself a patriot as you brought your own nations to its knees. Trust me America will fall under Trump and Vance.

Damn America!\nThis is what a leader sounds like

Trudeau speaks the truth . The leaders of America have decided to bed with Russia . Shame on you all .

Stand aside, Trump. You've been kicked to the curb by a true leader in North America. Canada, and Mexico have shown the world how intelligent leadership and courage crushes whatever the random Russian-sucking fuck that Trump does.

In 1956, Nikita Khrushchev, the leader of the Soviet Union after Stalin’s death, said, “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within.”

Never would I have ever thought that I am happy that world leaders are against America but we are here. I fought for this nation, and we elected a dictator

This is not about tariffs. It is about Trump unravelling all of America's relationships with its allies, to make the country weaker, in the service of Putin. Canada is just the first. But Europe will be next. Then America stands alone, too weak to be a world leader.

The whole statement was coherent \nThat’s how leaders sound \n\nMan America is shit

Canada and Mexico are not responsible for the people in the US who chose to use drugs. In fact, it's the United States job to keep illegal drugs and immigrants out of the US and they are doing a poor job of it and need someone else to blame. Mexico could retaliate in a way that could flood the US with illegal drugs and immigrants and refuse to repatriate its citizens back into Mexico. The rest of Central and South America could do the same in support of Mexico. They need to get Trump out of office before he ruins America.\nI remember the press conference with the USA (Trump), Canada and Mexico when signing the new trade agreement during Trump last time in office. Trump proudly stated that this is the greatest agreement in the history of the United States. Last week he wanted to know who in the US agreed to the terrible trade agreement. He is losing his mind and cognitive function is deteriorating at a rapid rate. Re-negotiating contracts after the work is complete is how Trump ran his businesses. He has bankrupted many small businesses by not paying them knowing that they do not have the money to go to court. He is only rich because of daddy's money otherwise he would have never survived his many bankruptcies. Thats why no one will loan him money. I can't wait until he screws over the government of Saudi Arabia with one of his shady business deals. Anyone remember what happened to Khashoggi for just authoring a bad article on Saudi's Leaders. What do you think will happen to Trump for monetarily screwing them over?

As An American citizen I stand for righteous leadership and I stand with Canada, European allies and Mexico. Do what you have to do to protect your country your economy and your citizens. TRUMPSKI and his lap dog JD Vancekoff are ruining the United States of America!! They're not leaders, they're Russian assets, strongmen wannabe's and a scourge in the historical record of our nation. And all of the misled, under educated and misinformed folks who follow this man and his cult of personality have been lead astray by the propagandist on FOX News and right wing social channels and will pay for this just like the rest of us. Trump and his cronies are ONLY about enriching THEMSELVES and their friends and families. Not the working man and woman. Just the autocrats and oligarchs.

Trudeau sold out the Canadien people long ago with his personal greed, woke crap and using the environment as an excuse to tax the hell out of us. Now he has someone to blame (Trump). We need Pierre, a strong leader that will work with President Trump for a Strong North America. Canada + USA = Prosperity for all

AMERICA - Leader of the Free World !!!! Oh, sorry. That is _SO_ 2024.

AMERICA - Leader of the Free World !!!! Oh, sorry. That's SO LAST YEAR.

This Canadian president is a leader.!!! Canada wont stand alone with out getting world wide support USA have been a superpower for decades and a true democratic country that the world admired. Today this have come to a end. 2025 will go down in history for the year when Americas greatness and No1 econemy ended. The respect and the trust for USA under Trump is long gone!!! For Trump to put tarifs on canada just to make them suffer so trump can get Canada as its 51 state is mindblowing. Trump aint putting those tarifs on Canada because of fentanyl when it comes from china. Tarifs on China is another story but that will hit the US market to and companys. I cant belive the americans are just swallowing this whole without doing anything or can a president do whatever damage he wants without consequenses?

As an American, who did not vote for trump i side with our neighbors in Canada, then and now. America should maintain and further their status as leader of the free world and free trade. Not try to bully other countries, especially not our neighbors and allies.

Sir Trudeau must know by now that America does not have a leader in the sense of caring for its constituents. Our leaders are more aligned with oppression and destruction. Nothing more.

I wish America had you as our leader

Got to love how Justin has to talk to Trump. Like a kid. We have done big things and you're a smart boy. Got to praise the cult leader to make him happy. I truly wish Justin was our president. What a great person and he speaks clearly and is smart. He isn't annoying or an idiot like trump. We truly live in the stupid timeline. Canada is going to get their items from Europe and Asia and South America. So congratulations America we are about to lose so much. Trump is making us weaker.

Thos is a true leader who says it as it is and tells trump and all Americans exactly how it is. Dummy donald is the stupidest most useless moronic leader America has ever had. Wake up America.

Trumps administration has decided to Put the American people first the ones who where FORCED to work there asses off week on and on just to get the crap end of the check all cause this country and that country wanna fight and NOW THE US HAS THERE TRUE LEADER BACK AND SAYS NO MORE.

Can't make our case any better than that Justin Trudeau! Well done! Trump and his minions are ruining America's status as being the leader of the free world. Most American citizens want their country back to the way it was ... leader of the free world. Donald Trump has to be stopped!

Other countries need to learn to respect the United States of America. You need us we don't need you. Canada leaders are traitors wake up or don't come to our country.

I have been a pro-America citizen for almost 79 years, but our administration is dead wrong. Canada is the best neighbor we could possibly have, and we have slapped them in the face. This administration loves authoritarian leaders and dismisses the interests of our long-time friends and allies. Why would we ever believe our president when he promises to make life better for us. He does not care for any of us, unless we are one of the few with money and/or power.

From America: Not all of us follow in the footsteps of our idiot leader. We love you, Canada.

*America, look! This is how a leader in charge speaks! You put a morons in the O O, so have fun with tariffs! Being racist has consequences!*

“I am Canadian, and I support Trump because our leaders are a joke. They delay pipelines, restrict the open market, and refuse to trust foreign investment from China or overseas. Instead of strengthening the economy, they bring in a million immigrants while ignoring real growth. If we’re going to rely on America anyway, we should join it becoming the 51st state would make North America stronger.\nIf Canada retaliates against the U.S., it won’t be the government that suffers it’ll be us. Our leaders look weak and desperate. \nWith 25% tariffs, Canada is heading for economic disaster. Companies are moving to America, jobs are disappearing, and our future is at risk. Look at Europe 23 countries share the euro and open borders. We should do the same by becoming 51st state.\nIt’s time to negotiate with Trump and secure real benefits more businesses, better telecom, cheaper flights, lower food costs, affordable housing, a shared currency, and the right to bear arms. Canada would be stronger and wealthier as part of America.”?? ??????\nWe are still Canadians

America, how does it feels having a leader who can speak in above a fifth-grade level vocabulary? In his second language no less.

We are with you Canada. Trump will ruin America. The world will not stand for a narcissistic leader.

Trudeau is the epitome of a compassionate, transparent and STRONG leader. As an American, I can confirm that we have the exact opposite infesting the White House. Canada.....please proceed. Show America what the government here is REALLY about. Thank you!

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!
