Why don't they let people here what he has to say ? Because they want to smear trump unstead of letting the viewers hear his words

They use Fentanyl, DEI, Woke, immigrants, Gov't waste, as a key word to justify the tearing down. Trump can lie to the uneducated that he loves, the racist and the greedy, but other Countries will check him. The Skipper and Gilligan is on this super hero movie villain tip.

Make That Make Sense. Here you go Trudeau. . If US aligns with Ukrain, as very very sad as this situation is, Trump would be declaring opposition with Russia. Then China aligns with Russia. Then WW3 starts on North American soil. Did Trump word everything right? Absolutely NOT. NOPE. However… I don’t want a war either. Trump should have just stayed out of it. \n\nLastly Trudeau you liar. You said “no one wins in a trade war…”. Yet you respond to tariffs with tariffs. You just started a trade war!!!! \n\nHow’s that for making sense enough for you!!

I know my gvt won't let us down. But, now, we, canadians, need to be strong and DON'T BELIEVE A WORD OF PP. PP IS THE PUPPET OF TRUMP. AND TRUMP IS A TOY OF RUSSIA.

It's not trump fault is the people who vote for him jack in other words this is what the people of usa wants.

Harsh! PM Trudeau called his name: Donald is very polite that donalddeserves be called convictedfelon trump.\nNah! I do not see any harsh words from PM Trudeau and convicted felon trump shouls apology PM Traudeau as felon trump him is governor.\nThis president felon misled his country nowhere but backward ,\nWhat is he doing for better! Nah! for richer? Nah! For American greater by those tariffs to closest ally? Nah! But American intelligent communities need to find out what trump truly is.

Trump & his administration, including Musk, are TRAITORS!! Please know that half of American voters did NOT vote for this traitor. We, non-Trump Americans, are NOT in agreement with this traitor. We stand with Canada & our other allies! “Hate” is not near a strong enough word to describe how we feel about these traitors’ actions!!!

Trump never sticks to his word. People should have figured that out from his last term.

Still no words on Canadas high exports into America. This is bull! Thanks' Trump first president to stand next to the people and not on top of them!

Thank you for using easy words for trump

Trump supporters will not understand Justin Trudeau, he's using big words. Lol

I applaud our Prime Minister for holding his ground amidst internal turmoils. It only takes a lost, uninformed person and misguided (?) person like Donald Trump, to sabotage the special relations between Canada and the U.S. \nMr. Trudeau, your eloquent speech depicts your patriotism and passion. And yes, these are the wise words of a a mature person who is firing up the patriotism as he leaves the office. Respect !Mr. Trudeau?

I know this economic war on Canada will be difficult enough already but I urge my friends north of the border to do their best to fund a massive military expansion as rapidly as possible. Trump is clearly setting the stage and manufacturing excuses so he can invade and force Canada into becoming his 51st state and he's not going to stop with just trying to cripple your economy. Don't make Europe's mistake of thinking Americans are honorable friends and allies who can be trusted to keep their word. We're nothing but a bunch of ignorant, nasty, greedy, white supremacists who hate every other people on Earth. As a US Army veteran, I am ashamed of my country's unprovoked brutality once again.

Powerful speech by Trudeau! He did not mince words and addressed head-on calling out Trump! He called him Donald, not President Trump, no sugar-coating! This is a hallmark of a true and STRONG leader!

Trump doesn't keep his word, he doesn't support what he say.

Simple words, slow speaking and repeating that Trump may understand these words... \nGo Canadians! As a European take and we are with you.

I love it how trudeau went from being informative and eloquate, but made sure to include the words big and dumb just so he had a chance for trump to understand them.

His articulate and poignant words are in stark contrast to Trump’s moronic babbling.

Also awfully funny how y'all were perfectly ignorant when Joe Biden was increasing the tariffs against everywhere else when Donald Trump left the last time he didn't remove them he added on to them and increased them and y'all didn't say anything about it then. You'll act like this is the first time anybody's ever heard of tariffs and yet Canada already had it against us we already had it against them just like every other country. Tariffs are just a fancy government word for interest and as long as those interests are aligned and in favor for Democrats tariffs are okay but when they're not all of a sudden they're not okay again.

Not hard to be a better speaker than trump. He can't even talk in a complete sentence, just buzz words and nonsense.

Finally Trudeau sounds like a real leader! Mark my words, Trump and Putin are up to something.... time will tell!

Tough words from a PM who has destroyed everything he has touched in our Canadian economy, persecuted peaceful protesters, froze people's bank accounts, and divided people on every issue. Now he is going to talk tough to Donald Trump as he walks out the door? What an absolute hypocrite!!!!

Wow - when directly speaking to Trump, he definitely changed his language in a way Trump can understand words such as “big” and “large”

Im here for the Canadian red state boycott. They aren't going to listen to your words. They need to pay for inflicting us with Trump.

Have to love how he mimics Trump’s language (with “big things”) and how he uses shorter words when he is addressing him.

Trumps word is as good as Putins.\nNo Deal! I stand with you Canada!\n??⚖️??

All Trump said during his campaign was: 'it's never been done before' but could not present anything tangible to back it whilst being a crook and criminal himself - his actions spoke louder than words, but voters that voted for him heard only words! learn from that

Justin Trudeau with iron in his voice. Thank you, Mr President. As a British person on my side of the Pond, these are welcome and necessary words. Let us all in Britain and in Europe echo Mr Trudeau's sentiments. We want our friendship with America back, intact, but it requires the removal of Trumpism and fascism from the American psyche. American democracy can come back better and stronger in the absence of its current madness and malaise. Trump is not a President. He is a Pretendident.

Trump is clever, not smart. And a person giving his/her word means literally nothing to him.

take back everything you instated for trump with border security and let them deal with there own drug problems... and start refusing american goods at the border... tell them we only pay a set amount or send it back! when the US asks why we did it we can tell them it was to cover the costs of tarriffs that trump thinks the government pays... well lets make his words ring true at their expense!

Funny telling - because harshly words always using Trump and what you USA expect , because ‘this message was very much polite and professional sent to Americans. Trump not knowing to speak with diplomacy and respect for others !

I hope europe also will be able to hold together like this and have the balls for such true words against Trump.

Be careful with your words, Trump is testing all countries. Be strong ❤

Suddenly you are true friends???? True friend understand NOT to take advantages from each other. According to President Trump, the US s-called friends did exactly the opposite, you all are taking BIG advantages from the US, in other words, you so-called friends have been leeching out from the US for decades. Now comes a president that want to make the records straight, now you have been crying like baby. Trudeau, normally I do NOT give fascist/Nazi lovers a good advice, but I will make an exception, did you call President Donal Trump DUMB??? Don't you think that is TOTALLY disrespectful??????

Hi, American citizen here. Please know that half of us are so, so embarrassed to be part of the United States and to have Trump as our president. I cannot put into words how upsetting it is to know that so many people elected him a second time.

Let’s see trump say one simple word in a second language ??????????

Good and honest words from Prime Minister Trudeau to Canadians, Americans, the world and Trump, who is called dumb. A fair and undeniable description, but only Americans can change their government.

trump is NOT smart he says he knows big words... just because beautiful has 9 letters doesn't mean it's a big word. trum.p has ruined America

As an American..This is how a leader speaks..and not a bunch of word salad BS like Trump and his goons address the world. Just embarrassing as hell.

No wonder trump likes the uneducated stupid dumb people that’s what he said his own words. Remember trump you can’t fool everyone all the time .

CNN journalist qualifying Trudeau’s words as Harsh…. Was she on vacation when Trump spoke to Zelenskyy? “It’s hard to believe what’s happening” !!!! You voted the idiot in, what did you expect???????? CNN Stop normalising Trump!

Definitely can count on Trump's word to destroy America.

maga shiteheads: this is how words are formed to make full sentences - quick and easy, to form a clear message. \never heard trump talk like a man? or even a teen? let me ask you.. someone who can barely form a thought and put it into words is, in your opinion, qualified to lead an entire country? because you're in the #FO stage, deservingly.

Trump and Elon are obsession as run the government as an organized crime group by the Oligarchs! You could say they are trying to run the U.S.A as a Mafia and other countries by extortion, bribery, etc. Where they often have a structured hierarchy and defined roles for their members by fear. In other words, to rule in the same way as Putin.

I loved how he dumbed down his words when speaking directly to Trump!

no use for us to discuss one that dont hold to his word and respect his own signature the gang of trump-vance-putin wants to dig the graveyard grave of the free world so trump the puppet is doing putin job destroying it

By putting large tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China the US government has put up the taxes of the US people by the highest amount since 1993.\nThese tariffs will be paid for by the US people with higher prices and inflation.\nThe US central bank may put interest rates up if it worries about higher inflation.\nWhenever I look at Trump I think of the song Liar Liar Pants on Fire by Chuck Brodsky.\nThe words of the song describe Trump perfectly.

Justin, there are a lot of Americans that completely disagree with Trump. We know he lies constantly, and we don't believe a word he says. I'm right here in Mi, can I come live there? America is an embarrassment right now.

trudeau says Trump wants a total collapse of the Canadian economy. trudeau is so much like Trump, he worships the man, repeats every word Trump says...

Trump is not a men of his word. That’s all.
