I hope the Prime minister reads these comments. If he doesn't then let others from around Canada read these messages and pass them on to everyone in Canada until it reaches every leader in Canada. Prime Minister Trudeau and all those who lead our provinces. When you come out to talk to all the Canadian, the Americans and all of our allies around the world. Please keep reminding President Trump. That Canada is still not and will never be for sale, no matter what. And don't remind him once. Keep telling him that everything you go on camera. And keep saying it until Trump finally gets it. Greenland you do the same about your country. And you too keep telling him this no matter how it takes. Keep sending him this message even after he gets tired of hearing it. Let us show this low-life criminal what we say and do to him and anyone else who abuse their power and authority.

Canada, I and the majority of Americans stand with you in this. We abhor Donald Trump. We are protesting. We are pressuring our leaders to stop this nonsense. We will purchase Canadian goods whenever possible to support your econony over our own. We will do more if it is required. It has been a long time since the American left has had to rise and fight... but we will fight. \n\nI am sorry... so very, very sorry... for what the ignorant minority who elected Trump has done to you and to my own country. The good news is, it will not last forever. We - the educated, empathetic, democracy loving Americans, raised on the stories of past heroes who stood up against corrupt governments - we will make sure this ends. The sooner, the better. Stay strong. We're fighting for you too.

That Canada prime minister is a true leader not trump.?

Canada is the new leader of the free world.

This is what a leader, a real leader…intelligent and savvy…looks like. When Trump looks into the mirror, this is not what is reflected back. The reflection looks like a four year old child, crying because Daddy doesn’t love him. It’s sad but we will be paying dearly for a child’s temper tantrum and very disturbing behaviors. Wake up United States, Congress, Republicans and Democrats, the entire News Media, and uninformed voters. This country, our country is at risk of going the way of all fallen dynasties…into oblivion. God help us all. Sorry dear Canada, so sorry.

I can’t in good faith say I side with Canada as a lifelong red blooded American. HOWEVER, I will say I envy Canadians having such a logical clearly spoken leader.

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

I'm american and no I didn't vote for this big bumbling bafoon. He isn't a leader of anything but what he wants. I stand firmly with Canada & ukraine. I truly believe God is with us.❤❤❤

That is how a leader of a country speaks to his people. Calm, articulate, no name calling or yelling and no lies. I am an American but I support Canada in this.

America, wake the feck up. Why do you put old, rich men in charge of your future? You go from one man who isn't far from being in a care home, to a man not that much younger but is a crude, reckless, arrogant, divisive bully?\n\nTake a look at the leaders of Canada and European countries, people who are put there because of talent and quality and ability, not because they are rich.\n\nHonestly, wake up and change your messed-up political system.

Wow an actual leader. I stand with Canada and fuck the USA.

Justin Trudeau is such a courageous and good leader. I stand with you, Canada.?

Hello from Germany ??! Let’s do trade on gas, oil and more! (Germany and Europe) I must say: great speech and with all respect ? Canada ? was represented here, even his ratings are not good. But this was a historic speech and address which no other leader in Canada do better ??

Love coming here and setting y'all straight because as you can see y'all failed when you got the chance to prove Trump was the problem. Canada? Weak country, leader acts as if he can play hardball,watch markets right now, they wouldn't be so jittery if Trump ain't backing it up. 50% of Americans right now are soft as Charmin,we can't get rid of you but God I wish we could,y'all lost on why Trump is doing all he is doing....I mean to even have to explain to y'all, nahh man. Y'all got to go.

jezz, you have come along way.. best leader Canada has had in a while. fuck the haters.

I wish we had leaders who led like this. Would a kind Canadian come kidnap me please? You don't have to keep me, but please get me out of here. ?\n\nIn all seriousness, I'm ashamed of my president AND my country. I'm thankful, tho, for those who are willing to stand up to the wannabe king. Canada, Mexico, and Ukraine - we're sorry and we're rooting for you!

Trudeau is the worst leader and has destroyed Canada. He can't leave soon enough.

If only American elected leaders of the same calibre that Canada does. It's a shame America has gone all Russian.

I listened PM Trudeau speech more than 3×. What a great leader Canada has ?? ❤( probably the politest country on our planet)

One thing about Justin Trudeau. \nHe's an excellent talker but the worst Prime Minister Canada has ever see.\nDon't be fooled by his nice hair and speech. It's because of Trudeau Canadians are not able to afford housing and taxed to our eyeballs. \nBecause of Trudeau, our drug problems are at rising high like we've never seen before.\nHe does nor respect Canadians although he talks the part yet he pulls the emergency act on the Canadian truckers and froze anyone's bank account that donated to protest against him. A man dressed in sheep clothes but a wolf inside that will do anything to make himself rich and first. Meanwhile single moms are suffering because they just can't make ends meet. \nThank God he has been called to resign from his own party. \nWe need a leader that will be intouch with the everyday Canadian worker. It's not Trudeau.\n❤Canada. God Keep Our Land Gloria's and Free.\nYes We Will Stand On Gard For Thee, because Trudeau didn't.

i wonder if trashump supporters'd still side with him and call canada's prm a liar too??\n\nimagine if US has a proper leader like CA's

Is there a “Gold” immigration card for Americans to become Canadian??? Oh Canada, we admire and respect you and your leaders. We apologize for our spineless wonders.

Trudeau is a scumbag and the worst leader Canada has ever seen. Americans welcome their trash talk, lets see how long this last before you realize that Americans ultimately benefit from this.

My family moved from Normandy, France to Canada and then to the U.S. I wish I could live in Canada instead of here, because you're a great leader ❤️

Respect for Canada from the USA. We don’t agree with this madness that’s been unleashed. We could use a leader like Trudeau in the USA! May God help us all.

There you have a good leader. Take notes! \nI think you will ride through this Canada - now trade with us in Europe and you have friends over here. You are wellcome here.

This what happens when you have a leader who know clue what he is doing....Zero ...thats why Canada is broken and the most expensive country in the G7..Hellooooooo..I am born older Canadian..You tell me what there is in this country to be so Canadian proud? What? This guy messed up our country and now its to late

I want to move to Canada. Australia lacks leadership—we truly need a leader like Justin Trudeau.

Impressive statement, PM Trudeau! I support Canada, even though Minnesota will be hurt a lot by tariffs. Dictator Trump’s actions are indefensible! I’ll be sorry to see world leader Trudeau no longer be Prime Minister. And now Trump wants to arrest college student protestors.

as an old Swissman. Impressive speech Mr.Trudeau! This is how a true leader speaks. Long live Canada!\nWhat is this orange madman doing with his great country, the USA? \nHow could anyone vote for such a man? You can see what he's doing. Starting an economic war for what?

Where are our past presidents? PResident OBama? PResident CLinton? President BIden? PResident BUsh? They still garner the title President. We need their collective wisdom and non-partisan leadership to intercess and stand up to the TREASONOUS machinations of Trump. OUR DEMOCRACY IS IN PERIL….Canada is our friend and confidant. TRUMP IS GUILTY OF TREASON! He is single handedly dismantling decades of peace, goodwill, friiendship and above all SAFETY with our French Canadian neighbors. America is in serious trouble. CNN a you have a responsibility to use your far reaching platform to seek out the opiNions and diplomatic aid of our surviving better presidents. They possess the hardwon wisdom and experience to engage with world leaders and our senators…..\nPlease take a stand. These are scary moments. TRUMP IS GUILTY OF TREASON!\nHELP! SOS! ⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓

One of the BEST SPEECHES we've seen by an American President in a loooong time. Wait, what do you mean he's Canada's Prime Minister? Good Lord, our U.S. leaders NEED TO take public speaking notes from Trudeau.?

From Japan, to our friends in Canada.\n\nSurely, we in Japan will also be forced to face a trade war similar to what you, our Canadian friends, are experiencing.\nNo, perhaps it has already begun—perhaps we are merely on the verge of its full-scale escalation.\n\nCanadian friends, your leader has shown a resolute stance against the U.S. government. Please take pride in this. The American left will surely boo him harshly once again, but this is what a true statesman should be. With dignity and composure, he made a difficult decision—not because he wanted to, but because he had to—fully aware that it would bring pain to both nations’ citizens.\n\nCan our own Japanese leaders take such a firm and resolute stance? That, I do not know.\nBut I offer my deepest respect.\n\nAmerica is no longer a protective guardian to us.\nWe must defend our own nation by ourselves.\nThis has become clearer than ever.\n\nPeople of Canada, let us remain strong together.\n\nWith deepest respect and prayers from Japan.

Well done PM Trudeau! How a leader behaves! A proud Canadian here! Canada strong and free country now and always!

You suspend the parliament… copy everything from the opposition leader, and do the cut and paste into your speech. \n\nHow can Canada still have you as a legitimate Prime Minister at this moment?\n\nThe reason you are there to speak at this toned is because you know that you are not going to be elected next, and this is your dying moment and you try to be bold and a hero. \n\nShame on you … shame on you.

This is a very sad day. Justin Trudeau you are and always be a class act and a very strong and great leader. Thanks you for your unwavering support for all of Canada.

He is leaving office for his failures! His speech means nothing. How are you a leader if your quitting? What does Canada have that the USA can't live without? Whiskey? Bacon? I hope we stop buying anything from them. They are about a useless country. LMAO

This is what a real leader does. I'm an American and I stand with Canada.

As an American, I’m disgusted with the regime 31% voted for. More Americans than not are appalled at what Trump is doing to Canada and Mexico! And Ukraine and the EU as well. Please world leaders, continue to stand up to Trump!

Oh Canada ??, strong and free, our country is already great and the best in the world. Hopefully, the USA will be great again someday but I think they need a new leader ,just saying.

What a real leader sounds like. I support Canada!

As an American, I stand with Canada and Mexico but not Russia . Prime Minister Trudeau has demonstrated true leadership qualities. If the U.S. has trade issues with Canada and Mexico, they should be resolved amicably. What Trump is doing is not the approach of a smart leader—he is risking the livelihoods of millions of Americans

It’s an embarrassment. I hope Canada and the rest of the world realize that millions of intelligent progressive Americans do not support the orange clown who we have the misfortune of having as our president. We envy you for having an eloquent respectable leader.

Gosh I miss this kind of conviction that the US leaders used to radiate when talking. You don’t need to be in politics to know what’s right from wrong. Just listening the the Prime Minister talk fires me up, more than this clown that we have for president ever will. Canada’s doing it’s job, it’s time we do ours and stand up to this corrupted government. WAKE UP!

I'm from USA and I stand by you fully Canada and Ukraine. This Prime Minsister is for the people in Canada. What an amazing leader. Im so disgusted by all this and so mad at all the Americans that voted for Donald

Great speech. 100% support from Europe. I hope our EU leaders get in touch quickly on how we can help Canada. They have only 40 million people and get bullied by a country 10 times as large. Unbelievably unfair. I hope the US customers will pay dearly for this unfair attack.

100% support to Canada, from France.\nThis is a great speech.\nIt gives me hope when I see leaders of any countries stand up like that. Trump is one of the cancers we all have to fight right now.

Worry about Canada bro. Americans are none of your business. Speak to our leader

? I would rather live in Canada than the USA any day. This is a true leader and a good one .

As an American, why can't we have a leader this good! SMH. Stay strong Canada, we stand with you & Ukraine!
