Donald has more allegiance to Putin, a well known dictator, murderer and war criminal, than his 'closest' allies across the world. JD Vance is a political gangster who undermines and bullies people, someone who is quite frankly, completely out of their depth and incompetent, What a shambles America is right now, and I thought the UK was in bad shape. The American people should be very ashamed.

From Georgia, I stand with Canada 100%. trump is a traitor and a criminal. I do not accept him as president. I am ashamed of America and I apologize with all my heart for what trump is doing. I did not vote for him and never would! I love Canada and will always support you!

I feel ashamed of America. Trump is a monster.

Imagine a country saying they will be there for their people, not just the corporations. At the moment, I am so ashamed of the Corporate States of America

America has completely lost its mind. This is the first year of my life where I am completely ashamed to be an American

America should be ashamed. It’s not longer enough to say “not my president” or “I didn’t vote for him” take f*cking accountability, Yanks!

I am ashamed of my country, America. But these comments make me feel a little less ashamed.

I'm a 71 yr old woman. I'm crying! To listen to a leader who is coherent and articulate is foreign as of late. I haven't slept a full night since he came into office. I'm ashamed of the people in the country that are disgusting brainwashed maganuts. My daughter in law & her family are from Montreal. We stand with Canada!! You should impose a 30% counter tariff! America is dying because of that orange nazi & his group of nazi clowns. God bless Canada, Ukraine, Israel & may He save America!!?

Impeachment for the whole office and the senators that let this happen. How can you impeach a president who had an affair with another woman, but you let a 4 years ruin the United States of America. The senators should be ashamed for turning their backs on the American people and our allies. IMPEACHMENT!!!

Trudeau is a true leader. He understands we are victims of trump. I am so ashamed and angry of what trump and his accomplices are doing. They will destroy America and attack democracy across the planet if not stopped

As an American I'm so ashamed and embarrassed. Please know this person does not support this. I think something hinky happened with this election because the country I have grown up in does not condone this. I don't know how to stop this, I don't know what is going to happen and I'm scared. This isn't the America I know and I know I'm not alone in this. Please know this isn't the people.

I am an American. I am embarrassed and ashamed of the leadership of America. However, I am extremely proud of Prime Minister Trudeau and the citizens of Canada!! I stand by Canda and will be purchasing Canadian products as much as possible.

Well said. I will never understand how Trump and the entire Republican Party turned against our country and our allies, and aligned themselves with a murderous Russian dictator. I don’t know how anyone could grow up in the United States of America and so completely turn their backs on the Constitution, and the laws and values we stand for. I am confused. I am scared. I am angry. But mostly, I am ashamed to be living in Trump’s America.

I’m ashamed of our president. Canada has done everything they were asked by an unreasonable Donald Trump. Trump is isolating America intentionally. I am ashamed to be n American.

almost the whole world is laughing at us, I am now ashamed to be an American, my love for America is unfortunately being destroyed by a stupid government under Trump ?

I could not be prouder of my Canadian ancestors and more ashamed of America now. This is not how you treat your friends and neighbors we will get what we deserve some not me elected a fool and Putin's puppet. We will all suffer for this and It is idiotic but the rich will not feel the pain so it might be time to move to Canada or Mexico where the have real leaders not puppets.

Outstanding. 50% of America is horrified and embarrassed by the chaos coming out of the White House every day, and a good share of the other 50% knows this and much else is wrong but is too afraid or ashamed to admit it.

This is Trump not America. I'm ashamed to be an American represented by this fool Trump

No winners in a trade war. No winners in a Trump America. \n\nCanadians should be proud of having a smart, wise, handsome, rational leader. Sadly, ours is the polar opposite, a bloated tragic excuse for a president. As one of MANY millions who voted for Kamala, we join Canadians in the fight against these ridiculous tariffs that Trump initiated. We're ashamed of him. This Trudeau speech is very very honorable and articulate and resolute.

I am an American who am horrified by the actions of this oligarch who has aligned himself with Putin. As a country we should be ashamed - especially those who voted this evil criminal and his cronies back into office. Obviously the dumbing down of America and an end to democracy is barreling down the train track. Thank you Canada for being a beacon in this madness.

And this is how great Trumps America looks like…… right? MAGA? I am ashamed to be an American citizen, we stood for democracy, freedom, American dream and now what? Thank you 77 million, who voted for convicted felon, with 6 bankruptcies, who SA women. Bravo! ?

Texan and hispanic here ,didn't vote for that orange idiot and ashamed for America. Stand with Canada and Ukraine !!

I am ashamed of trump. This is all on him! Please world believe me Most Americans do not support this at all! I will still buy Canadian God Bless America and Canada ❤

I'm from the UK and I stand with Canada. America should be absolutely ashamed of their president. Trump treats friendly countries like this, then rolls over and becomes nothing but Putin's little bitch. Trump is pathetic and Americans are disgraced by him and his lies.

America is now hated - by our allies! We have become the bad guys of history. Nobody can trust us anymore. It's shameful. No matter what one thinks of Trudeau, he speaks well here, and he speaks the truth. Ignore the MAGA Americans and Russian trolls who will belittle him. He's right here, there's no escaping this. Every decent US citizen should be ashamed.

Are we making America great again? As an American this is sickening, hope the imbeciles that voted for Trump are ashamed

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.

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!

Not my government, I'm ashamed. Prayers that we can overcome this Dictator wannabe and find our way back to the America I have loved all my life.

OH CANADA! Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of YOU and your Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Do NOT let Donald Trump ruin your way of life. It has been pristine for way too long. Hang in there, stay strong, we Americans are behind you. I am so ashamed of the people that put Agent Orange and his hillbilly in charge. We will fight, make no mistake, we will fight for the real America and for you too. I was born in Deep River, Ontario in 1954. My original family originates in Miramichi (formally New Castle), New Brunswick. I still own 45 hectares in Miramichi. I was brought here by my parents. They would be so ashamed. I think it is time I came back home. ♥️☘️

Let us speak directly right back at you Canadians, both yr government and ppl, we don;t want this either, we Americans don't back TRUMP AT ALL. We are ashamed and we are embarrassed by everything DT does. We appreciate Canada, always have. Everything he does is in his interest, not ours, not yours, only his. He does NOT represent the will of the American ppl. Our apologies. Help us stop him! We respect you and do NOT want you as the 51st state of America, that's all him. Long live, Canada!

America obviously isn’t an ally and they should be ashamed!

I am so ashamed and infuriated by what is going on in America!! They are going to kill a large majority of our population, way more than fentanyl or criminals! There has to be something we can do to get them out of our government!! \nAs an American, I would like to apologize for what our government is doing to the world! I voted AGAINST the ?? but I am sorry all the same!

with freedom comes responsibility, with choice comes consequences.\nthis is what you get when you choose a treasonous scumbag for president. one false thing here is calling donald a smart man. i have never known of a smaller, more arrogant, more stupid, less qualified sad excuse of a man-child than the orange idiot. as a veteran commissioned officer of the united states of america, i, unlike our president, am bound by the oath i swore at my commissioning. i am ashamed of my nation for allowing a treasonous scum to sell our county

For the 1st time in my 75yrs of existence on this planet, I am thoroughly Ashamed to be an American....I am ashamed of those who voted for this wannabe dictator......because of their short sidedness, they have elected a monster.....as for the politicians that enable him, they are spineless swamp creatures that need to be voted out of office and some sent to Guantanamo and charged with crimes against America

Trump drones - “This is what we voted for LOLOLOLOL!!!! Whine more Libs!!!! LOLOLOL.” I am ashamed to have these morons as my fellow country-people. Stay strong, America, we’ll get through this. 25th amendment time!

America deserves better—we are ashamed and at a loss for words.

We have chosen a foolish leader and we are dealing with the consequences! America must be ashamed of ourselves

I am a retired U.S. Marine. I love the United States and I recognize Russia as a mortal enemy. I cannot support President Musk and Vice President tRump. I stand with Canada and Ukraine. America is the aggressor against our friends in Canada, I am ashamed. Just know that most of the United States stands with Canada and Ukraine even though some voted for the tangerine menace.

As an American who supports justice, integrity, and respect.. to watch this fear/ego charged charade makes me sick and ashamed at what this country has become: a political scam aimed at taking far more than is given, lies stacked on top of lies and a global deception scheme that risks the livelihood of every single citizen. We can’t go on like this. This administration will destroy America before the end.

Americans don't want this, donald trump and every single person working for HIM do not agree with this and are truly ashamed of our current fake government. trump wants to de the dictator of America. That will never happen. My heart is broken for what they are doing and we will correct this. Even the people who voted for him are now figuring out that he said everything they wanted to here to get their vote was a lie and would never fulfill his empty promices(go figure). We true American patriots are truly sorry. Canada is our neighbors and friends.

I am so very sorry that my country, America. I am so ashamed of our country's leadership.\nThere is NO way your people or ours should have to be going through this.\nOur government is filled with oligarchs that think they can get away with these disgraceful, disgusting actions.\nI am so very sorry. ?\nSincerely, an American who believes in working together.

America should be ashamed. You suppose to be in God we trust and suppose to be a Christian. We are Hippocrates and selfish. You treat your own like crap. You reap what you sow. The future looks very dim for America. Europeans, you're not Americans. You go home.

? Harris should be ashamed....it was reported, that she had literature handed out, all over the latin countries to come to America.

Mr Trudeau: I am ashamed of you. You have ruined, changed many good things from Canada. All cultures are different. This is part of North America. You promised different things to Canadians & old immigrants, but didn’t do it. Everything is so expensive. This is European, white, Latin American country. Where is your head? Do not bring more people from India, Asia, Africa & other parts of the world If you don’t know their gods, their culture, background. How are you going to help the people that are in here??? Send all the people back, & help here. Don’t be like your father& family. Shame on you.

Trudou I am ashamed of all the Indian immigrants that you have allowed during all this time. I think that you have ruined the country. This is not India. This is an English country in Latin America. You should help the people here & STOP Bringing more people. Are you Blind? \nCan’t you see what you are doing?

It’s not just housing and health care. Every aspect of life is in crisis. It is okay if one has a government job else it’s challenging to survive in job market and we are competing with so many students. Most managers like to have these students as they have very limited knowledge about rules and regulations and can easily be taken advantage off. \n\nPeople are leaving North America due to woke culture and both Canada and USA are turning into third world countries. People are ashamed to tell that they live in North America due to lower standard of living. Time to pack up
