This is what a leader looks and behaves like. I am absolutely embarrassed to be an American. Donald Trump, and Elon musk are disgusting, not to mention absolutely stupid human beings.

Canada needs a new leader. Trudeau will never beat Trump. Our president is the most powerful and influential human being on planet Earth, and Trudeau is like a leader in training, with no business acumen whatsoever. Canada cannot exist without American dollars circulating through it.

I am a Canadian. We do not want conflict with USA. What we want is for our new leader to be voted in - and then work things out for trade. President Trump is aware of what we have suffered. Canada has stood firm.....the truckers in our capital....brought a siege all over the world for freedom. I do not want the tariffs.....that will hurt us both. But I did not like Trudeau's speech.....it was rude. It does not represent us as a country.

China ?? is dancing ? now \nChina is happy now \nSometime Trump is like a Daft cow ?

What Trump's need is a spanking from somebody, He acting like a baby

As a Canadian I don't like PM Trudeau but he is bang on about tariffs harming everyone and this speech here is fire ? This is going to end badly for Trump just like it did in his first presidency because it will hurt American's economically, and eventually they will push back against Trump. Love that he calls him Donald, not president Trump...LOL.

We, Canadians, are going to be fucked 100%. Like Ukranians. Trump wants to crush Canada until it bends its knees.....he intimidates, coerces and extorts. We are living in an extremely serious moment, and it has only just begun. 75 million people voted for him. If there was a new vote today, he would still win. The United States wants a strong, loud-mouthed president who will crush the past and reinvent a new world. the rest is to follow. If it wasn't so brutal and frightening, it would be fascinating.

Canada is sovereign country belongs Royal Majesty of UK, if Trump’s annex Canada like state, Trump already ask permission of Royal Majesty? \nThis attitude of Trumping is great disrespectful of Canadian and Royal Majesty of UK?? .

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

I have always loved Canada and I cannot believe how awful Trump is treating you. I wish we had a leader like Justin Trudeau.

If the world would like to depose Trump and friends, more than half the US would stand by and let it happen.

i may not like trump, but I hate this Franco Canadian communist even more.

Congratulations America, you voted for Trump and now you're going to feel the full extent of your decision. Imported good are going to increase, inflation is increasing and your markets are going DOWN. Doesn't look like your winning, does it.

Mr. Tiptoe can shove it. Trump didn't start this trade war, Canada has been tariffing USA for decades. The whole world does... Starving out the one country that actually has freedom. Freedom to kick out government when it becomes corrupt and against the people. The western side of Canada is more than welcome to stop subsidizing the east, and pay like half the taxes. Instead of stars we will throw a couple maple leafs on it and call it a day.... In the interest of international security.

As a Canadian, I would like to thank every people from the USA against this madness from the Pumpkin Clown, Vancy the puppy, Lutnick the Dwarf and their circus crew. Thanks also to everyone else around the world also against this madness. As for the stupid ones supporting Trump... who cares about you? You're all low IQs and vain anyways. *LET'S STAND STRONG AGAINST TRUMP AND HIS CIRCUS!*

He behaved like a politician, all emotional knee jerk reactions are from upper grass mongers , sadly majority in the society are filed with such people. \nDevil is always in the details. His local reputation is not good and to loose upcoming elections , to divert and shift focus, this is an attention diverting tactics to shift attention and make him look like a hero. \nIf he really cared for his people, he would have either prevented it by aggressive backdoor talks or, or if this happened without his awarness then he could have spoken privately to Trump to sort it out in the real interest of his own nation, cut the ego for Good of his own people and an sort it out , why he did not do it ?\nNow by publically engaging and directly targetting, he has achieved two things 1. temporary fame as majority of people are upper grass mongers are emotional but no attention to details 2. He spoiled further his relationship with Trump administration by this public spat, rubbing him on the wrong side, spoils future of his own people. Diplomacy is done by maturity not by ego.

What are the tariffs about? Really!!! You can't figure it out? Let me spelt out in simple syllables. Donald Dump is ONLY interested in HIS own power and wealth. No other single person or group has any importance to Dump. That includes the economy, the federal government, and individuals like Musk and Vance. Look out Musk and Vance, at his next funky, wavy, wobbly brain fart Donnie Dump might throw you under the bus, like he has done for millions of Americans who have lost their jobs and lost the benefits they deserve and some must have to continue living.\nDump Trump!!

?at the end of the day PUTIN IS A KILLER AND YA IN THE COMMENTS CANT DENY THAT I LIKE TRUMP BUT PUTIN IS THE WORLDS BIGGEST THREAT ??

I am Canadian Citizen, but 100% support Trump for what he is doing for his country. Every country should be independent whatever their core values. I hate making a group of countries to blackmail other countries like EU, BRICS, NATO are doing around the world. Of course, we can make group of countries to fight with poverty, climate, making people life better, but what NATO and EU are doing just pathetic.

Hahahahaa... TRUDEAU actually sidelined PUTIN as LIAR and MURDERER. This is getting exciting. I would like to believe that TRUMP wants him down. And TRUDEAU just bite it.

It's people voted for Trump and Elon That is what they wanted expecting to get millioners just like Trump ????

U.S. ARMY VETERAN WILL NEVER BOW DOWN TO Russia like trump has. Wake up America

Ooh 5 eyes….ooh…a PM or a joker…someone remind him he can talk only to Canadians who now don’t like him either. Unsure why he wants to talk to Americans that’s something Trump will take care of

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.

He spoke eloquently using FACTS not LIES like Donald Trump. He didn’t sugar coat anything. He spoke directly to Donald. \n\nTRUMP has been making DUMB DECISIONS over and over. THIS TIME is being controlled and e has shown to the world thatHE IS THE PUPPET of a ?BILLIONAIRE IMMIGRANT WHOSE GOAL IS TO CONVERT THE US TO A COMMUNIST COUNTRY imitating HITLER. \n\nDonald LIED to VOTERS promising to reduce inflation and increase jobs. Donald please STOP BEING PUPPET OF ELON, VANCE. And all others. \n\nTHIS IS NOT HOW TO MAKE THE US GREAT AGAIN… YOU ARE MAKING IT THE WORST and destroying everything great former leaders worked hard to build. \n\nYOUR EGO is making you blind. \nYOU LIED using God’s name in vain to obtain votes. \n\nWORST ADMINISTRATION IN HISTORY\n\nGod sees everything.

You need a dome nowadays trumps wants one cause no one likes him but maga'ts. Trump needs a dome. To keep his brain together.

Canada, I don't blame you if you want to flip the middle finger at us Americans. We are responsible for having a monster and lunatic in the White House. We deserve to not be liked by Canadians, period. If I was a Canadian, I would not welcome Americans into Canada. We Americans are losers and suckers everyday that we do not fight back against MAGA and all of its republicans including Congress and Donald Trump. We are weak and live in servitude to the MAGA tyranny that is slowing destroying the United State's standard of living and reputation. Canada, I personally stand with you, and hope that your country will assist the resistance movement in the next revolution to take out Donald Trump and MAGA. I am so fired up and pissed off at my government and Donald Trump.

You know what, I still can't believe the Americans were stupid enough to elect trump. And according to the recent poll I saw on CNN 50% of Americans like what he's doing, and only something like 34% see Russia as an enemy. So far from being an accident, trump with his stupid ideas was elected on purpose. The stupidity over there seems to be deep-rooted. I think we all need to take a step back and re-think our relationship with this adolescent nation which has always been a bit gauche but has now definitely gone rogue. Well spoken Mr Trudeau. Thank God for you and Canadians.

Amazing speech !❤Stand with Canada from northeast India. Trump is just like a big toddler with big ego. So shameful and disgusting. He sides cunning Criminal Putin the invader, this is so absolutely wrong

Hear me out. I think Trump was threatened by Netanyahu to do this to all the countries that agreed with ICJ's arrest warrant and promised to arrest him on arrival. Netanyahu was the first leader Trump met and suddenly EU, Canada, and Mexico are being treated like this.

I thought Just-in was retired... well that's what MSNBC told me? Man he's good looking, like a young Donald Trump

Sounds like a little boy crying for his mother.., seriously. Strategist and see how you can get your nation out from this. See how China did it. They have long diversified since Trump 1.0 into ASEAN countries, and ASIA, especially the mid east and Africa.

Duh!!!!! It not being smart is about using decernment, Trump has always had a child like mind.

trudeau all you have done for Canada and Canadians in 10 years is try your best to destroy us. Why should we believe anything you say. How many $ billions have you embezzled? The worst thing is you gave iot to fake agencies overseas that looks like money laundering. NOTHING for Canada or Canadians. I'll steal your words to trump. This and you are REALLY DUMB!

Why don't u kiss trumps ass like u kiss the bum from Ukraines ass giving him money instead of canadian army you liberals really screwed our country

I am agreement with canada. We all citzens in good people in this world should work together because over come evil as to people like trump is.

As a Canadian citizen I have always admired the US up until now, I sincerely wanted to move to the US to build homes and start up a company. But now am re-evaluating my decision because if this how the US treats their friends and allies, I really feel sad for their enemies. Both countries benefited from having a good relationship and now the great US has no one willing to challenge Mr Trump on this idiotic move, America is alienating themselves from a lot of countries and regular Americans are the ones who are going to suffer from this fall-out, the rich won't be affected but regular working class folks your stress is going to get a whole lot worse and that's unfortunate. Hopefully US wises up sooner rather than later and stop blaming immigration for their problems it's poor governing and politicians that have us looking at each other as enemies rather than humans with the same struggle and issues. They have money to send annually overseas but none to improve the life of their citizens in need, that should tell you something. People that don't look like you aren't your enemies, people who try to harm you, undermine you are your enemies. People are just searching for a better life that's all, the most basic thing humans have in common, change the red tape a make things more structured and rid your country of the bad apples and welcome those willing to work, build and serve God and the country. May God help us all the beginning of Sorrows has begun ?.

Regardless of your thoughts on Trudeau, that was a very professional and reasonable speech. \nJust two months ago, Canada was sending firefighters, planes, and water to help with the LA fires... I will never understand why Trump chose to bully Canada after decades of them being our closest ally??!!? \n\nThis feels like a black mirror episode. ?

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❤

I think something just clicked.... we know that trump is egotistical and he wants the credit for things he didn't do, twist stories to his benefit. With that said. I think trump wants to create this WW3 to gain territory, so places like Greenland, Canada, gulf of Mexico and Gaza he has showed his interests there. So him partnering up with outings agenda. And with america in war, he would get to stay third term. While he fattens the pockets of his oligarchs. His billionaires and his Co-president.

I do not like Trudeau...but i applaud him for this...fruck Trump

Trump is working like a Putin's mole ???

I like Donald Trump but unless he's gonna pay my bills he needs to chill the F back.

I’m an Australian and if Trump does this to our country I hope our politicians has the BALLs to stand up to this nut case like the Canadians did. Every Aussie stands with CANADA!

Dictatorship is coming to the USA. Vance is a real fascist. Everyone is applauding Trump like in the Third Reich or North Korea. Save America, guys, before it's too late.

This is the way how president should speak... But No, Donald The Golden Shower Trump speaks and articulalates like a child.

Trump acts like he's on fentanyl talks like he's on his dumb show the apprentice. Best for the whole world to cut America out and let the people vote him back out for starting the 3rd world War

Y’all are just Trump haters an sore losers..You will never be open minded at all..Ypur like a children..I wish you would all leave an move there and dance in women’s clothing..Better to be a friend to Russia then an enemies..

This idiot is playing checkers and trump is playing go fish. 2 absolute morons. This clown still thinks this is over fentanyl……\n It comes from the USA. This is not over fentanyl Trump wants Canada. He wants its resources. He wants its control over the arctic shipping lanes. Just like he wants Greenland for that same reason. Just like he wants panama for that shipping lane. It’s a power grab.

Good for Canada the republicans in congress are spineless to stand up to the felon president Trump and are allowing him to be a fascist tyrant. As an American it hurts to see how Trump treats allies and how he embraces enemies like Putin, North Korea and others. As painful as it will be I hope the free world does what the Republicans are scared to do and that is stand up to Trump and put him in his place!
