God bless you Prime Minister Trudeau ??

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau. I'm angry and disgusted by my country's government, whom I did not vote for. Unfortunately, you are correct that the trade war and POTUS allying himself with Putin will harm lots of Americans -- and Ukrainians and many other people worldwide.

I AM ?? CANADIAN. How mad are we? Furious and overtly patriotic. I will do everything within my limited economic (non-billionaire), physical and social power to protect Canada against american aggression. You have threatened our democratically elected government, natural resources, economy and personal freedom. By electing “that person” as your leader and aligning with authoritarian dictatorships like Russia, you have threatened not only Canada and Ukraine but world peace. You have threatened your own economic and personal freedom. Prime Minister Trudeau spoke succinctly in a comprehensible way to let you, the american people, know the seriousness of your choice. If you understand what you have done and realize the implications, then peacefully protest (if that is still allowed with your evolving fascist/populist/authoritarian government). Contact your local, state/territorial and federal government officials. You can let your governors, senators and representatives know that you do not agree with the government’s actions and the subsequent hardship it will impose not only on the world but on you, your family and neighbours. Make change happen in a peaceful, non violent manner, while you still can. We didn’t ask for nor want this absurdly unnecessary confrontation but when attacked, we will fight our old friends and historic allies. Elbows up Canada!

Dear prime Minister Trudeau, As an American, I sincerely apologize that we have such an idiotic president.

Too bad he stepped down. Prime Minister Trudeau speaks and uses clear words. Trump got stuck with first-grade words. Immigration and all this gender craziness is how the demagogs won elections.

_Trudeau can fix this by purging his position as Prime Minister to governor of Canada becoming the 51st state of America_

we will watch the US become a land of Hoovervilles- there will be a grand Depression and this is just what the architects of 2025 want. this is King Musk at work and his minions. Not all of us support this monstrosity in the White House and their dismantling of our democracy. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau for speaking TRUTH.

CANADA be proud of your Country and Prime Minister Trudeau for delivering such a clear and too the point message on what is a senseless and pointless trade war. All the Best, IRELAND

Thank you Justin, Prime Minister Trudeau. No, you haven’t been a perfect Prime Minister, but in this moment I’m very proud of you. Merci Justin, Premier ministre Trudeau. Non, vous n’avez pas été un Premier ministre parfait, mais en ce moment, je suis très fier de vous. ??

Trudeau is a liberal jerk that has resigned as prime minister of Canada. He has lost all respect of Canadians. And who is paying attention CNN. THE WORST NEWS ORGANIZATION IN THE WORLD.

??????????????????????????????????????❤️?????Thank you our prime minister Justin Trudeau ?????️?️?️you sir are absolutely #1 Sir.??

Another awsome speech from Prime Minister Trudeau. A great leader for the past 8 years did the best to run a Country through Covid 19 and many other challenges. I am Proud of being a Canadian. ??

When you call our Prime Minister “Governor” Trudeau, that says everything about the man. Very disrespectful Donnie. I have never been prouder of our Prime Minister. God bless all of us around the world. Somehow we all will get through this.

Canada you should keep Trudeau as Prime Minister.. He's a great leader.???

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am sorry President Trump's irresponsible ideas and choices affect so many negatively which includes you and your Canadians, and me and my Americans, as well as so many other. He should be ashamed of himself, but we all know that a narcissist feels only joy in hurting others. I worry every day, not just for the people of the United States of America, but also for all people around the world affected by this horrible man. I stand up and speak up with the hope that it makes a difference. Those I know are doing the same. I have heard so many republicans that voted for Trump, so very sorry now that they did. His irrational behavior is worthy of impeachment. Your speech, Prime Minister Trudeau, was honest and sincere and I appreciate your being so candid. I wish President Trump and Vice President Vance had the character you have. Best Wishes to you and the People of Canada, we have been friends for a long time and I would love to continue this friendship. Remember there are Americans here that appreciate you and your country.

Full props to Prime Minister Trudeau. A strong and decisive response was required and is exactly what’s needed to face trump down.

The greatest and smartest Prime Minister of Canada ❤ Justine Trudeau❤

Great speach of our Prime Minister!!! Well done Mr. Trudeau!

Prime Minister Trudeau, thank you for showing the world how a true gentleman and leader talks to the leaders of another country in spite of the irrational, immoral and turncoat actions from a former Ally; our (?) new MAGA President Donald Trump. It's so surreal that this narcissistic, psychopathic person actually won the Presidential election (again). All I can say is I am sorry, embarrassed, and ashamed of my broken country's politicians in Washington, D.C. at present. Many more Americans support the democratic policies than the anti-democratic that Trump's regime is spouting all around the world. Just know this isn't what most Americans believe and we don't support his thoughts and actions. We are trapped in this nightmare that makes no sense. We hope this is just a temporary change. These new policies benefit no one but the oligarchs of America (and world). I guess we are just going to have to take our punishment for the few years for not being able to prove that these people in Washington care NOTHING for anyone, including their own constituent, and are hell bent on taking down and destroying our American, Democratic way of life and we, the people, are helpless to stopping it dissolve and crumble. Thank you Canada for always being such great neighbors. Good luck, peace out!

I'm sorry Trudeau. This is what a strong Prime Minister looks like. Standing up for our country, not bowing down to a bully and his every demands.

Canadian here. My husband and I listen at you here on CNN Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and we couldn't be more proud of you and your team. You say intelligent words right from the start and you deliver a strong message in a very strong manner, beginning with this: the US is declaring economic war on Canada, as well as strong arguments, and that fentanyl is just a pretext, which we all already know, that getting closer to Russia and cutting ties with its allies is Donald Trump's current course of action, and the fair question to ask is why is this man putting himself at the service of the Kremlin which is totally unnatural for an American.?

As an American I say Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau!

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced his resignation. What weight do the words of a guys who can't even finish his term as the leader of his country have?? Obviously, a failure and unpopular in his own country. This guy needs to shut up already.

Fine speech, Prime Minister Trudeau! Very civilized and thoughtful. As an American, you and your countrymen have my full support and respect. You also have my sympathy for having to deal with the criminal in the White House and his incompetent lackeys.

Why can't the U.S have a President like Prime Minister Trudeau.

wow im impressed with my prime minister Justin Trudeau, he killed it mic drop moment on Donald, spoke to the american people the canadian people and launched his counter attack. I hope Donald soon realizes his mistake.

Today, I heard a true North American leader who very aptly described the situation leading up to these silly tariffs, the actions his country took to avoid the tariffs. P.M. Trudeau openly spoke of the changes that the wannabe Orange Julius threatened and why the U.S. wasn't being realistic. \n\nI know some people criticized the Prime Minister recently, but you have a great politician who is actually defending his country!!! Unite behind him and kick MAGA's arse!

What an eloquent, smart and educated speaker and beautiful person. Justin Trudeau should run for Prime Minister!

I am an American, I support Canada and Ukraine, not Vladimir Putin and Russia. Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau! I'm sorry to say we have a wannabe dictator as president, I will never understand how he was ever voted in as president, he is not my president.

This is a leader. So thankful this man is leading our country on this day. He will be greatly missed. Much respect Prime Minister Trudeau. ❤??❤️

Somebody needs to tell donald, the disgraced, soon to be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, soon to be former president, the never to be premier of America which is the soon to be 11th province of Canada by way of unanimous consent of the American public... DON'T START NO SH*T WOULDN'T BE NO SH*T!\nYou know what this is about don't you?? donald is mad at our Prime Minister because he was caught joking and making fun of donald with other world leaders at the 2019 NATO summit in London. So because donald has microscopically thin skin he can't take his over inflated ego being bruised in any way, so to get back at Trudeau he's going to take it out on the Canadian public and the American public, the consequences be dammed. The only thing that is important to him is revenge no matter what the cost. Besides, when Trudeau visited the Whitehouse, Melania gave him googly eyes and melted in his presence. Let's face it donald, you can never come close to ever being the man our Prime Minister is as much as I dislike Trudeau and are glade to see him gone.

Well done Prime Minister Trudeau??. Thank you for demonstrating true leadership.

This is what a good leader looks like. Congratulations prime minister Trudeau

Like I've said before or two other blogs, this man should not be up there addressing CNN or any other network or any population. Whether it be Canadian or American. He has no right to be there. He is not the prime minister of this country anymore. He has no right to be making policies or to be imposing tariffs or doing anything else of the sort. Furthermore, he is also politically, unsavvy and ignorant. He in his running the mouth speech this afternoon. Insulted Donald Trump again by calling him dumb. I'm telling you that will not go very well with Mr. Trump and I wouldn't be surprised to see additional tariff percentage increased on the 25% already in place. Justin Trudeau is not a prime minister. He is a thug, an absolute idiot, a moron and any other adjective that you can find to describe someone who is totally and completely incompetent and incapable of implementing policy or running a country.

I'm a American and don't like how our government is playing. I support Canada and Ukraine and Mexico. Prime Minister Justine Trudeau spoke very clear, it was good to listen to him. I hope my people will listen too.

As a Canadian I’m so proud of Prime Minister Trudeau and our country! We all know that the tariffs will affect our Country too but we are willing to stand shoulder to shoulder and help each other out. Thank you to all the countries that stand with us and to the Americans that didn’t vote for this nightmare!

Proud of you Prime Minister Trudeau❤

Thank you so much Prime Minister Trudeau.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau!❤ American citizens need the strength of foreign leaders to stand up to these bullies. I’ve done what I can and I’m tired. God Bless You! From Virginia.

Bravo! Prime Minister Trudeau. This tariff debacle is stupid, stupid, stupid and the American people will pay for this stupidity.

What a fantastic speech from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivered with respect, with no name calling and lies.
