Lmao ??? Trudeau is on his way out Trump is going too make Canada great again. Trump is resetting geopolitics. Get ready world.

I support Canada ??! Trump is destroying everything like he did with his casinos. How will any of this make America Great? It doesn’t. And Republicans are equally responsible for ALL that is happening. Do they honestly think we Americans will accept what is happening? Think again. We have the ballot box and will use it.

Trump is compromised and run by Putin. Putin is Trumps handler, aidrd and abetted by Musk. If things remain thecway tgey are America will not be great again for a very long time.

Is it really that hard to understand that we wanted this so we voted for trump?? You don't understand, we are ready to sacrifice ourselves for President Trump and his mission to Make America Great Again.????? #PROJECT2025

President Trudeau-I’m an American. We live paycheck to paycheck. We didn’t vote for Trump & the GOP. The Republican Party has been doing everything it can to destroy America & the hard working people that keep it running, for years. They’ve finally succeeded. It’s an evil party, filled with vile,malicious assholes. But even though we won’t be able to afford many more things anymore, I greatly admire & appreciate you & your country standing up to Trump. If only more of our own ppl would have done that, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

Trump has done 1 thing great. Unite the rest of the world against America. The downfall of the USA is here, sorry to all my friends and relatives in the USA. It's time to get out.

Great speech but Trump rightfully knows that everyone besides China and Russia can only bring knifes to a gun fight. Usa and russia will completely rip off Ukraine. Europe cant defend itself against Russia. Scary hours for the whole world

As a Sri Lankan..? well I’m watching this high school level bullying program and enjoying it ? we’re seeing how a malignant narcissist like trump leads a country for the first in our lifetime and it’s a great shit ? show.

Trump is great at making enemies. He is great at flubbing all the things that matter. \nWhy did some people vote for him? Sheer stupidity and a deeply-set hatred for those who Trump demonizes (the poor, the non-white, the new immigrants).

Trump’s behavior toward other nations resembles that of the pharaohs of ancient Egypt.\n\nBut great speed is merely a rush toward demise...

CORRECTION PRIME MINISTER, GREAT SPEACH, BUT ONE ERROR. TRUMP IS NOT SMART. HE'S A HORSES ASS

Nothing Trump does makes sense. He’s an utter embarrassment. He’s making our country look like a backwards, oppressive, “pile of garbage”. If any MAGA bothered to research is life back to the 70’s and 80’s they’d find Trump was NEVER good at business. He was good at running them into the ground. He hasn’t a republican cell in his body. He doesn’t care which party or what ideology anyone is, so long as they’re naive and ignorant enough to buy his lies and bullshit. It’s just all about Trump. Everything he’s doing is contrary to making America great. Ironic that there are many so-called Christians who support him, when he fits the biblical description of the Antichrist a bit too well. It’ll take decades to restore America’s standing in the world, because that narcissistic, bloated, power-hungry, piece of shit wants to keep attention centered on him. He’s doing all he can to keep us stupid, and brainwashed, because anyone who’s intelligent, and has any level of critical thinking poses a threat. When will the orange Kool aid wear off?…and btw, I’m not a liberal. I’m not a democrat. I’m rational.

Great speech but I take one exception, tRump is not a very smart guy!

Lol not a great week for Trump. He still doesn't know the difference between a tariff and a tax yet and his followers are just blindly following along. Now we all get to experience more layoffs, higher bills and higher prices.

Trump's agenda:\n1. Destroy public institutions to place my followers and enrich my billionaire brothers. \n2.Ban all journalists who ask uncomfortable questions.\n3. Destroy our friends and allies.\n4. Protect killers' and dictators' interests.\n5. Make a great party with porn actresses and dance over ucranian and gaza citizens' bodies.

Please know PM Trudeau, there are a great many of us in the US who don't want this either and want to remain friends with our neighbors to the north. Shame on Trump and his broligarchy!

Blistering speech? lol Trudeau is an authoritarian idiot, socialist. We need him gone. Thank your lucky stars you have Trump making America great again.

The sooner we Americans accept that Donald Trump is essentially batshit crazy and proceed to impeach the Orange Menace, the better off everyone in the world will be. Except of course, Russia. The more pressure great democracies as Canada exert upon Trump internationally, the more the U.S. economy (and Americans ourselves) will suffer. The more we Americans suffer, the more pressure will be exerted upon Trump domestically, and the more the U.S. Congress will bilaterally be pressured to impeach Trump. A lot of Canadians might not agree with me, but the Prime Minister is among the greatest democratic leaders of our time in contrast with the USA's new dictator-in-waiting. May God bless Canada and may God deliver the United States.

Trump is just doing Putin's bidding. Make America Great Again? Boy he sure had the USA fooled. I blame failings in the education system - too many school shootings and not enough reading.

Sorry but you are going to lose ! You don’t want to work with American ?? \n\nDon’t worry ! President Trump is going a great job! You sir are the problem . Shame on you !!! 3:17

Sorry but you are going to lose ! You don’t want to work with American ?? \n\nDon’t worry ! President Trump is going a great job! You sir are the problem . Shame on you !!!

I think President Trump should make America great again on it's enemies not allies. Get some around the country and to help make it greater again tho

This Canadian president is a leader.!!! Canada wont stand alone with out getting world wide support USA have been a superpower for decades and a true democratic country that the world admired. Today this have come to a end. 2025 will go down in history for the year when Americas greatness and No1 econemy ended. The respect and the trust for USA under Trump is long gone!!! For Trump to put tarifs on canada just to make them suffer so trump can get Canada as its 51 state is mindblowing. Trump aint putting those tarifs on Canada because of fentanyl when it comes from china. Tarifs on China is another story but that will hit the US market to and companys. I cant belive the americans are just swallowing this whole without doing anything or can a president do whatever damage he wants without consequenses?

Great speech from Canada and told trump what a ass he is

I'm with you Canada Trump just used drugs for a excuse he wanted tariffs from day one . To bad their great neighbors .

The US has already tried the Tariff experiment.....\nTariffs in 30's by the US contributed to the great depression \nSmoot–Hawley Tariff Act. The Tariff Act of 1930 (codified at 19 U.S.C. ch. 4), commonly known as the Smoot–Hawley Tariff or Hawley–Smoot Tariff, was a law that implemented protectionist trade policies in the United States\nAnd obviously that didn't work, quite the opposite!\nDeliberate Economic Sabotage?\nSo much for Trump saying historically the American economy did the best under tariff policies\nTo make smart decisions you should also pay regard to history

Trump wanted to make America great? Stock market went down prices went up ..gas price went up...and now wood will probably go up too....yelow head rich filthy

Got to love how Justin has to talk to Trump. Like a kid. We have done big things and you're a smart boy. Got to praise the cult leader to make him happy. I truly wish Justin was our president. What a great person and he speaks clearly and is smart. He isn't annoying or an idiot like trump. We truly live in the stupid timeline. Canada is going to get their items from Europe and Asia and South America. So congratulations America we are about to lose so much. Trump is making us weaker.

Prime Minister Trudeau, you are wrong about 1 thing. donald trump is not smart. he is a TOTAL dumbass! You were probably trying to compliment him since he only responds well to those who kiss his feet, but don't do it. We Americans know what he is, know this is ALL his doing and think Canada is great!

Trump is Putins greatest creation ! Trump supporters how do you still pretend he stands for MAKE AMERICA GREAT. we look weak, stupid and risky investment !

If look at another perspective, if Trump did not impose tarrifs, then Canada will continue to sell the cars back to US for high profits. Trump mentioned about this, he is not happy. Actually I can understand Trump and what he is trying to do. If he is not harsh, Canada will never change taking advantage of US, not spending on own military.... Etc. US empire is declining fast, and Trump knows this. He is desperate to make his own country great again and stop the decline even though what he must do is going to be very unpopular among all americunts' friends and allies. The same for EU and troublemaker Ukraine who started the war by arrogantly provoking giant superpower neighbor Russia. US cannot afford to fund money, soldiers, weapons for war anymore. If EU wants to support, EU can go ahead without US. Trump is trying to save his own country so he is not wrong.

Such a great Nation and all you Americans could come up with was Trump or Biden?? Unbelievable ?

Trump has sold the lie that tariffs will pay for many great things. 1-It's a direct-to-consumer tax. 2-History has proven that tariff wars are bad for all concerned. P.S. Warren Buffet recently said that if all US corporations paid taxed like his companies do, We'd have no need for income taxes. Trump works from the other end of the tunnel that Ideally no taxes for corporations, and the wealth will trickle down and bless us all.

Excellent absolutely great new n trump wanted Canada to be 51 states of America what’s a shameful is because trump’s gold n his treasure thankful n respectful ?❤️‍?❤️‍?????????

This is so disheartening. We are all going to suffer from this ridiculous Trump administration. Even those that think it’s all fine and great…it will catch up with you and I pray you see the facts!

What a great man Trudeau is! And what a disgusting thug Trump is.

As a Canadian I stand proudly on guard for my amazing sovereign country ❤ ?? ❤\nWe must protect ourselves from this extremely old, dumb Liar ,bully. Puppet Master want to be dictator, convicted felon, sexual predator and supporter of the war criminal killer, lying and bully Putin and Russia. \n\nI see what's happening to the American people, your constitution and bill of Rights because of trumps and his bunch of thugs administration and this will hurt both Canadian's and every single American, the United States is in great danger because of this deranged very old orange child bully who is in love with dictators. Youre country has been in decline and no longer the great coountry that the United States were. Believe me trump cares nothing for the American people. God bless you as both our countries, Mexico, and all countries are being hurt by trump/ Vance administration. As they support the dictator \nPutin the war criminal and lying bully.\nTrump / Vance are not Peace MAKERS and the war criminal and brutal dictator putin will never stop the war.\nThe world is that much closer to world war 3 because of trump bromance with putin.

Remember Trudeau just like zenkesky failed to remember that it's not Joe in charge anymore someones in there that will not be disrespected an told what when or he was what's going to happen an especially in the position everyone is in America is not going to be a sucker no more an show love to other countries we don't get back no love now let's make if fair across the board an the tarrifs are great us people just want some of there needs an security but we're trillions in debt an no body seems to help or care or even say anything about it an the saddest part of it all is president trumps fault that how stupid people an brainwashed that the left had left on them hate in the there hearts

From brazil. Great speech. Trump has to go. Hope more world leaders has this courage to address trump's policies

Trump is a d f. Congratualtions. Great vote usa. There is nothing your enemys have to do, just watch you destroying yourself

man some of my best friends live in canada. this speech made me tear up. I knew trump wasn't gonna be great but dam man. I didn't know it was gonna be this bad.

lol Trudeau is so corrupt stop apologizing for Trump he is great the border is a disaster and the corrupt guy is another Trudeau thug

Trump you have been schooled !!!! Doing a great job destroying America...

As an American from Michigan, I Stand With Canada! Trump is despicable and an embarassment to our once great country.

This is total Anti US propoganda ! This man is about as sinister as they come, and in bed with billionaire led WEF ! He clearly displayed that in his lock step response to covid and how he treated his citizens ( like caged animals)! This leader is a socialist and has nothing to offer Americans but to leech our tax dollars & use our military defenses for protection without contributing their fare share to support it! We have been the sugar daddy to so many nations with only the consequence of our tax dollars not improving our nation, but every other that we are used by! I’m not a maga but, but this president is using leverage the US still has ( although we’ve suffered greatly under the Biden Admin ). President Trump is trying to balance our budget by smart and fair trade, that puts this country’s legal citizens first! Fair trade hasn’t existed for many years, and while there may be increases felt by these tarrifs, our hope is that long term we manufacture more excellent goods here & use more of our own natural resources! Those commenting about what we are doing to Ukraine need to get their heads out if the sand…the Ukrainian people don’t want Zelinski but cannot get rid of him! He has taken hundreds of billions of dollars from the US and has no plan for peace in his nation…Pres Trump says enough is enough, and he is trying to not only end the war, but recoup massive amounts of money we wrongly gave through a deal for natural resources. Sounds like a plan that’s good for everyone involved, and that’s how you make deals! We cannot give whst we do not have & with our debt , we cannot afford to keep printing money, devaluing the dollar, and giving it away at the expense of hard working N Americans!

Trump wants to make America great again. Well, he has a strange way of doing it its time

Trump should annex Canada to make it Great again❤

Its extremly puzzling why Trump is intent on causing chaos. What is the end goal, that is what people should be asking. Is it that he just doing it to stamp his authority to back up his slogan make America great again or is there an alterior motive. If its the former he is just destroying the respect poeple had for America. His obsession with imposing tariffs when he is in power must benefit him someway.

UK here. Great speech. Said it like it is. I truly hope that when, not if, our turn comes, we respond in a similar fashion. Beware Americans, if Trump carries on like this you may find your closest trading partner is Russia, when the rest of the world takes American goods off the shelf.

Trump will be speaking (whining)to a joint session of Congress today,which will be nothing but lies and grievances, and nothing about helping Americans. Trump is not playing with a full deck,both mentally and politically .He has no idea what he's doing because he's incompetent. He lied to the American people and he will never makes America great again.
