As a Proud Canadian, I love my American Friends; but the MAGA MORONS and Republicans are destroying and dismantling your Democracy before our eyes. Seems you have been taken over by Putin's Propaganda Campaign!

I just watch mr trump speak with regards to tariff impose on canada mexico and china..he's proud in saying that a lot of foriegn companies will soon build factories and offices in the US. Providing billions of jobs and revenue. He said that if these companies would come to the United States where will be no tariff, lower taxes and easy life for the Americans. My question is: is he trying to kill other countries?? He said Ukriane is gambling with WW3, well i can say its WAR with GUNS..what he is doing is already WW3 using economic saborage...just my opinion...

As a proud US citizen who loves her country, I am disgusted over so many actions of Trump/Vance/Musk that display a lack of care for the American people and a disdain and arrogance for other nations such as ?? Canada. Trudeau you speak with character, clarity, class and thoughtfulness - ?. If only our own leadership had an ounce of any of those characteristics of true leadership such as Canada has displayed…

Bravo Mr Trudeau ! Speaking the truth is essential, you have provided ! I’m American and I’m not proud of our new politics

Well done, PM Trudeau. You made us proud as Canadians. You said it like it is. Donald, and I noticed you refrained from calling him President Trump because he is certainly not acting like a president, Donald is siding with our enemies, snuggling up to a malicious dictator rather than taking a stand for right and for the common good. He has absolutely no reason to impose tariffs and is actually breaking legal agreements to do so, but we all know that Trump believes he is above the law. If you like this speech, go and listen to Premier Ford of Ontario as he threatens to tariff all the energy which flows into the States or even just cut it off. Nobody wins in this war, certainly not Americans. But Elon and Donald don't care. They are filthy rich and will just plan chaos and world domination in their sandbox while everyone else in the USA takes the hit.

Gotta disagree w/ Mr. Trudeau on one point, when he says Trump is 'very smart'--NO. Otherwise, Trudeau's speech was spot-on, and I love and respect Canada even more now. Most of us Americans cannot be proud of our country; we are held captive by a wannabe dictator and his stooges who are self-serving, vindictive, and UNpatriotic! To gather some semblance of sanity, I am taking the family on a Canadian Rockies tour in late spring--am tempted to not return home again.

I am an American and very proud of Canada. I jumped up and shouted when he said 25 back to you America????? You GoBoy!!!!!

I'm a American and to be honest I'm proud of Canada

As a proud American Veterran-I stand with Trudeau and Canada!

As an American citizen, we don’t want this either. But YOU have chosen this path with how you chose to deal with The U.S. this is on you Trudeau for the way you treated us all 4 years of Biden’s presidency. We are proud of our president taking a stand to jerks like you.

That part of this song “I’m proud to be an American” went cold. Half of us “Americans” voted for this. We were warned and informed on their plans because of our own insecurity on certain issues blinded us on the bigger picture. I stand with Canada and Mexico etc I’m ashamed and appalled but what’s happening something has to be done…. Getting played is an understatement…

The proud American heritage of my family is now besmirched by Donald Trump. He has fouled our dignity. He has deeply threatened our future.

I Am A PROUD AMERICAN, \nI COME FROM A FAMILY OF HARD CORE COMBAT VETERANS\nSINCE. 1776.\nI Proud Of My CANIDIAN Ancestry On My Maternal Side,\nNova Scotia, Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Ontario CA\nI Pray CANADA. SHUTS DOWN\nTHE MY OIL SUPPLY \nAND POWER TO THOSE STATE'S\nWho Think MAGA Spicemens \nWho Think ORANGE ? DRAFT DODGING CRIMINAL SUFFER.

As an American, I am not proud of what is happening either. In fact, it's downright disgusting. You must do what you must do, Prime Minister Trudeau. I won't blame you at all.

I am in tears every single day watching this administration do what they're doing....? I'm an American and I am proud of our country but I am not proud of what's happening right now In this administration? It's absolutely horrific undemocratic cruel Idiotic stupid ridiculous Narcissistic..... I am in tears watching this I can't believe this is happening?

Proud to be Canadian, Trudeau was so good, hope Americans are listening

This Canadian is PROUD of our DEMOCRATIC government in their strong response to the acts of the USA under convicted felon and adjudicated r@pist trump aka Komrad Krasnov. When you piss off Canada, you KNOW you're on the wrong side of history. FAFO. FDJT FUSA... our geographic neighbour is now our enemy and the enemy of every single democratic nation across the globe. Americans, you can either do something to change your fascist gov't, or enjoy your goose step closer and closer to Russia.

Very proud of my Prime Minister today. Half my family is American - which is true for many of us - but the USA has declared economic warfare on us. As hard as it is to believe, it’s actually happened. The USA we used to know is gone forever.

As a Canadian, I am proud of our leadership on the tariffs. We are polite people, but we refuse to be bullied. How can Trump treat our country this way when he cozied up to dictators? Well, my siblings who are Americans won't see me for awhile. I have to stand with my country. Proud to be Canadian. We as a country are united against tyrannical behavior.

Im so proud to be Canadian. I will take as much hardship to protect our beautiful Canada. Im buying only Canadian products and from countries that stand with democratic principles. My heart goes out to the American people. No citizen would have knowingly voted for the dismantling of their country and the suffering all will feel. Put your political view aside and pull together to save your families and country.

Every American that I've met , have been proud , polite and friendly. So who are the Americans that Donald Trump represents. Decency and common sense can't be bought.??

I am not a fan of our Prime Minister but I stand beside him as a proud Canadian. Thank you Prime Minister Tuesday for sending this strong message to that traitor Trump. He has no clue how Canadians rallied to support Americans in our homes when 911 happened. Americans, please take your country back.

“We will defend Canadian jobs”… Look at that, America! While your President is proud of himself by firing Americans by the thousands.

When I was growing up in Canada, hearing of someone being a “Proud American” was something I admired. Today it’s a punch line to a joke about the American education system. They have nothing left to be proud of, and I’m so thankful to be from this country instead. Trump administration or not, the American people can not be trusted to vote in their own self interest, let alone the interests of the allies that stood with them for the last century and who have lost lives sending men and women over seas to answer the American call for friendship, justice, and loyalty. America wants to stand alone so let them. The global order is shifting, and Canada needs to plan accordingly. Don’t listen to what people say, watch what they do, and Americans have done enough.

As a proud American, fuck Canada lol

American and proud brother to Canada!

Im an American! Im so proud of this Man standing up to this F' d government actions thats going to hurt us so badly.

Couldn't be more proud of being Canadian. As an American-born who holds dual citizenship, I am incredibly ashamed of being associated with the USA in any capacity nowadays. Trudeau should go a step further and label Trump the soft fascist authoritarian he seeks to become.

As a Canadian I stand proudly on guard for my amazing sovereign country ❤ ?? ❤\nWe must protect ourselves from this extremely old, dumb Liar ,bully. Puppet Master want to be dictator, convicted felon, sexual predator and supporter of the war criminal killer, lying and bully Putin and Russia. \n\nI see what's happening to the American people, your constitution and bill of Rights because of trumps and his bunch of thugs administration and this will hurt both Canadian's and every single American, the United States is in great danger because of this deranged very old orange child bully who is in love with dictators. Youre country has been in decline and no longer the great coountry that the United States were. Believe me trump cares nothing for the American people. God bless you as both our countries, Mexico, and all countries are being hurt by trump/ Vance administration. As they support the dictator \nPutin the war criminal and lying bully.\nTrump / Vance are not Peace MAKERS and the war criminal and brutal dictator putin will never stop the war.\nThe world is that much closer to world war 3 because of trump bromance with putin.

I'm a proud American veteran, but this president is screwing us.

As a proud American I stand with America.

I normally don't agree in Mr Trudeau, but he nailed it. You Canadians should be proud - As mr Trump should be a shamed. USA is from now an ally to Mr Putin and his world of scumbags. This happens in front of the American people. And the rest of the world watch in shock how fast USA is going down. It is the biggest tragedy in the history of US.

As a proud American. Fuccc Canada and anybody else who has a problem with our country!

From Norway. I stand for Canada,Mexico,Ukraina end Europa. Let’s stand together against Trump and his rich friends.. Trump is Pultins puppet and first ´´ladý´… and to your Americans who’s stand up for Canada I respect and are proud of You.

As a proud and sane Canadian I understand most Americans are not in line with the current administration in this and I implore my fellow Canadians in joing me to remain respectful of our American friends neighbors and relatives. Please cheer for the American National Anthem and repect the American flag. Donald Trump and his phonies will pay for their stupidity. To all Americans please don't take retaliation personally, but it must be done to protect our Country and our sovereignty. Trumps tariffs have nothing to do with drugs and the border. It has everything to do with his insane dream of being the ruler of the world.

I am proud to hear our Prime Minister adress politely the American public.Speak to President Trump and reassure us as Canadians the we must respond with Tariffs that benefit Canada !

Trudeau shouldnt talk, he is hated by his own ppl and TRUE AMERICANS STAND WITH THE USA if you dont, you are a traitor plain and simple.. not cater to simpletons like Trudeau who has done more to censor his ppl that protests always follow him. WE the MAJORITY who VOTED for Trump, OUR POTUS is doing what we the PEOPLE want. in the end we dont need Canada, they needs us. thats just a fact. when we sell our good in Canada, they tax us up the wazoooo, and we cant do the same? fk them ... thats not fair. USA is not the world POLICE and this highway robbery from other nations has to come to a stop as we have been giving consistantly for years and been getting the shaft from numbnuts like this fool. now we have a PRESIDENT with BALLZ....... and YES i served this country... 19k tank armored crewman and i served proudly...

VERY WELL SAID, PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU!!!!!!! As an American, I AM PROUD OF YOU AND THE CANADIAN PEOPLE!!! You had to do what you needed to do for your people.

As a Proud over 7 generations am AMERICAN AND STAND WITH AMERICA ❤

I am a proud South African ??. I stand with and support the brave people of Canada as well as the honest and sensible citizens of the U.S.A who look at the facts and see that the actions of Donald Trump are nothing but childish antics that hurt Americans more than anyone else.

Honestly I don't know why people hate on prime minister Trudeau I think he did an amazing job during a time when nobody could predict what was happening during covid and I am glad he is speaking out because in my opinion Trump has lost his mind I am not joking I think he either has dementia or dementia? and he has been making fun of Canada ever since he got elected again and what is wrong with Americans that they re-elected this person that made their country a laughingstock honestly it makes no sense to me❤ and from him saying he's going to make Canada a state of his we are bigger than your whole f**** country you stupid bastard? sorry but he makes me so angry and yes I am a proud Canadian❤

Us Americans are proud that Canada is fighting this. We are a country with leaders that are crazy idiots, criminals, jerks and oligarchs playing with autocracy. America is falling over a cliff because of this group! 3:33

Officially the dumbest war in history. I hope you're proud, Americans.

Well said Justin, we are proud of you! Nothing against american ''normal people'' who did not vote for Trump, just against the fool and his team running the country.

I am a Canadian. I am proud of our government. I have many American friends. My heart goes out to them. It’s gonna be a tough four years, but I stand by Canadian and I support Canadian. I am a proud Canadian and will defend my country.

I’m an American (I’m embarrassed to say) but I am proud to say I completely oppose Trump & Musk’s plan to turn us into or over to Russia. They are in alliance with the corrupt project 2025 and Putin. They are traitors to America. Sadly the world must not trust them. They LIE. They are actively destroying the USA. Trump and Musk need to rule Mars. DEPORT BOTH OF THEM TO SPACE. I support Canada, Gaza, Greenland and Mexico. I WOULD DEPORT TRUMP AND MUSK IF I COULD. They are CRIMINALS and have no legitimacy in my America. Dirty Traitors.

I am not proud to me an American.

I am American …I am proud for Canada! ❤❤❤

I am a proud Canadian and have no love for Trudeau but more important, I fear for the American people. America was once the institution of democracy but has recently taken a very sharp turn and is heading towards the ideals of Russian communism. I hope that level forward thinking will soon prevail so that we can live in peace again in both of our wonderful countries.

I'm Canadian - never been a fan of JT. But hearing him speak today made me proud. He's right - Canadians are polite easy going, but if you push us too far, we will retaliate. I hate this - I love America and have American friends. This sucks for both countries.
