I wish Trudeau was our president. He doesn't lie, cheat, or hurt HIS country. I am also sad that Trudeau will soon not be the Prime Minister of Canada.

I sure understand and respect this gentleman and president of Canada ?✅

From the UK. So impressed. Well done Canada!

tHIS GUAY A BOZZO HE THE REAL REASON WHY CANADA IN THIS MESS ONLY THIS CLOWN

Don’t be fooled. He doesn’t care about Canada. He’s deflecting the hatred towards him at Trump. Trudeau is a narcissistic coward who has already announced his resignation.

what a time to be alive. USA wants to be alone, let them do that. I know Trudeau is hated in Canada, but god damn is he 100x a leader than what Dumb is supposed to be

If tariffs are dumb why does Canada have them

We are taking over Canada ?? ???

I am an American but I am with you Canada. Do what you have to do.❤

Much love to you Mr. Trudeau and to the people of Canada who I have always found to be most kind and generous. This American is with you all the way!!

Great speech, as a dutch person i stand with canada. ????

German here. I stand with the EU, Ukraine and Canada. Let us remember that it‘s the billionaires that divide us and rob us of our future. Let‘s put our differences aside and focus on that truth for now!

We have no Govt. Trump is dealing with a loser that has already resigned. We have had no GOVT since early December in Canada, because Trudeau put the Liberals before Canadians. Majority of our country doesnt want that fucking loser leading us in this mess, his words are WORTHLESS.

The real reason for the tariffs is because it has never been fair for the United States we pay more taxes for products in Canada in Mexico in Europe and it's always been like that and it's sad that it has to come to this in order for everybody to pay their fair share. That's the real reason. it'sad that countries are mad because they can't continue to rip off the United States. if there's fair trades there are no tariffs period

Make a deal !!! idiot !!! Americans pay for your free heath care !!! How much money have you been getting from Americans ??? We the people will not do it any more !!! You got nothing we need !!! Wait for tolls for using our high \nWays !!! So keep talking smack !!! No welfare for Canada !!!

LOL Canada is mad.

how about Trudeau step down then none of this would be happening. Trudeau & the Liberals have destroyed Canada. Could he leave already? US economy is bigger than Canada idiot.

??? Oh boy. Little Trudeau acting like a tough guy. Canada will come crawling. It's only a matter of time. Mexico? They're screwed too. Just wait and see.

How is Canada escalating something the US escalated? I don't get this comment from the CNN anchor.

Trudeau is awesome...just wish those conservatives wouldn't of turned against him...Trudeau is for Canada

The opipid and fentanyl plague in US is not fault of Canada or Mexico, it is fault of the shitty health care system inUS, and hreed of the wealthy. . So to fight it the IS needs to make thongs right within and not bully neighbours. Of people don't do drugs because they have jobs, hope for future and decent health care...

We don't back down to anyone when it comes to Canada our freedom comes first Donald Trump win this war come on man what you thinking when it comes to us

I'm Brazilian, and it legit makes me so sad to see the Canadians being left this way by Trump... it's just a dumb situation, it's a selfish move made by him, and that sure affects Canada a lot, and that's why my family and I stopped buying American products. Stay safe and strong, canucks.\n❤

No one likes Trudeau not even most of his own people go away already you ruined Canada . Get a common sense PRIME minister that can bring back Canada to its glory a respectful SUPPORTER from the U.S.

What about saying that Trump is the best Sino-Russian asset in the US ? 'cause that is what he is, currently... jeopardizing generationnal friendship and alliance partnership for a despicable inner self.\nAs a French citizen, I stand with you and your people, Sir Trudeau. And I'll always stand with Canada. *You don't boot a cousin out.*

We don’t need anything from Canada we have it all here. I’m boycotting Canadian bacon ?

Mr. Prime Minister. The people of the United States love Canada we would do anything to help stop this. You are our closest✌️ friend and ally for years and years please don’t hold it against us because we have an idiot in the White House. God bless.

They should also stop spending their money on the border and make it Canada first

As he thinks so little of Canada's long friendship and a 100 some years of protecting the Americans back, I'm beginning to think we should be doing the opposite. Reduce efforts at the border and let the foreign immigration, crime and drugs flow south into the USA. It's no longer our responsibility to protect their back.

Canada has been mooching off the U.S. for years, time to take responsibility and make your own money, no free handouts anymore ??? #merica

From Germany: go Canada! You are not alone, friends.

the one that destroyed Canada wants to give advices to Trump... nice joke CNN

Forget Canada as the 51st state.\n\nAs a Northeastern American, I think most of us would prefer to become a province of Canada at this point.

He’s CRAY! Wasn’t us! We stand with you Canada!

It seems like Trump is trying to suffocate Canada economically and forcing them to be the 51st state this is the only reason I feel like he would do this.... truly sad for the Canadian people sorry that my country is doing this to you

We stand wih you Canada ???

Ok Trudeau, if Canada is implementing a tariff as well does that mean Canadian will also stop paying taxes like Trump is doing in the US?

There's a trade deficit with Canada.....if you actually think US will be worse in the long run compared to Canada, you would not go on TV like this Trudeau. You would just tariff

As an American, I gotta say… we really shouldn’t be doing Canada like this. I get it when it comes to China and other countries, but Canada?! I do not approve! ?? and ?? are basically besties regardless of the government drama and whatever substances may be involved.\n\nMeanwhile, Mexico is out here like, “Hello? Focus on me!” ??\n\nAnd in true Canadian fashion… “I’m so sorry, eh!” ??

Just a short while back canada was against truckers and farmers. Quit trying to make a ass of yourself on tv! Zelensky tried the same shit in Europe.

Newsflash Justin, we could afford it if you weren't already taxing us to death......CarbonHoax tax .....take 8t with you when you leave. Stop representing Canada, you resigned because we hate you.

Great and very impressive speech. CHAPEAU!\nCanada is a great country and we in Europe are happy to see how crystal clearly Canada defines its strong position on the side of peace and friendship between the countries, and not war, murders and liars.

I love Canada. I'm part French. My last name is French. The book, 'High Towers was written about my ancestors, who lived in Canada. I have family in Canada.

Sad American citizen here that didn’t vote for Donald. I wish we had strength like that representing our country. I’m with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine

Dear Canada,keep your shit.Dictator scum

I have so much respect for Canada ??♥️

The only way to deal with a Bully is to stand up to him just like Zelensky is doing in Ukraine, Trudeau is doing the same with the orange Mussolini. Go Canada ??

Here is a list of tariffs Canada Imposes on U.S.\nGoods:\n- Dairy Products:\n- Milk: 270%\n- Cheese: 245%\n- Butter: 298%\n- Poultry: 238%\n-Eggs: 163%\n- Barley: 160%\n- Wheat: 94%\n- Sugar: 265%\n- Peanut Butter: 295%\n- Rice: 150%\n- Vegetables: 100%\n- Fish Products: 100%\n- Lumber: 20%\n- Shoes: 30%\n- Cocoa: 30%\n- Metals: 25%\n- Wool: 30%\n- Tobacco: 100+%

All I hear is Donald Trump complaining about the illegal drugs fentanyl entering the United States how about the illegal guns enter in Canada from the United States

The fact is...they've been benefiting from America for years! We don't NEED canada.
