I love it 😍😍😍😍🎉long live indians 😌 amazing just the way bloody europeans living in Canada 😊 lovely

I wonder if we might make a shortcut in policy + create a border wall between New York City and the rest of the country. We could bus all the illegal aliens in the Northeast to New York City and let them have sanctuary there. Then just keep the whole glorious mess in the buroughs. Cut off all federal funding + let them live in the problems of their own making. Many New Yorkers act as though the world doesn't exist outside of the boroughs anyway.

I’m embarrassed living in the country. Still proud to be in America, it’s just disgusting to see what is going on. All of us do not agree with this and many other terrible things that are going on. I stand with Canada. This current US administration is a disgrace.

Long live trump

LONE LIVE CANADA. GOD WILL BLESS YOU, AND IM SURE CANADA WILL WIN.AGAINTS EVIL

Makes me want to apply for Canadian citizenship... would have to live there for 3 years first. Still...\nGreat speech, calm, clear, to the point, reasonable and with all the respect, maybe more than Donald Trump deserves.?

We need to block trumps visit to the uk. Dont want this traitor to our allies. Long live Canada

resign from the lie your living. we dont believe lyers or people who go on because you got caught misleading people admit it hahahahah

So now the government in Canada wants to defend us & tell us to stand united but in the past decade this country has turned into trash as they gave it away with an open door of Indians taking over and not giving AF about the people born and raised here - the adds on the radio ask us to keep our money in Canada and untie, but we dont even have a Canadian culture left anymore and people living here long enough know its true unfortunately, this was a great place to live but they destroyed it long before this issue - cost of living, housing crisis, immigration, gangs, crime etc. - If they want to keep letting people in here then start a service to help us get out and relocate before asking for help from the people you hurt

well said sir. love from england. that liar trump does,nt live in a dream world, he lives in a nightmare world

Trudeau isn't what Rogan says he is. I'm a Canadian with morals and empathy. I was formerly a centrist, possibly right leaning. That has all changed now. \n\nWe have the same far right agenda working to assault Canadian values up north. Americans are being subjected to a fairytale 'mandate' that was swindled with lies and deceit, Trumps 2 favorite tacts.\n\nI'm 40 now. Pretty brushed up on history. I can't fathom why any reasonable person thinks podcasters or real estate agents can govern. \n\nIn the past, swineherds could become Generals, yes. BUT There has to be levels of experience in Governance to handle the responsibility of having lives in ones hand. \n\nDemocracy is the only way, lets not go backwards. FUCK TRUMP, FUCK ELON.

Yes! Trudeau, I know this is hurting all of us. Thank you for standing against Trump. So proud of you for fighting back. Unfortunately we have to live with this jerk. He has destroyed all of us. He doesn't realize how much it is affecting the rest of the World. God Bless You and the citizens of Canada. I pray this ends soon. Stick to your beliefs. Do your best. I'm sorry to all of you for our greedy dictator. That you have to suffer because of his greediness. Not all of us believe in what he is doing.

Trudeau is speaking truth to power, and he is clear as glass that this mindless alienation of Canada is going to rebound on Americans. Teudeau is a REAL LEADER. Unlike one in Australia. Every Aussie PM cows down and boot licks for Yankeeland. Neither major party could ever really stand up to Trump the Dumb Dump if he hurt our economy. Limp lettuce government that is so America dominated down under, where I live.

Some persons were just talking about their sentiments on their personal point of view but looking at US point of view, know that the US trade deficit (Deficit exists where US import from another nation to US exceeds US export to that nation from US) with Canada exceeded 58 billion dollars in 2024; with Mexico is more than 170 billion dollars in 2024; and with China is more than 295 billions dollars in 2024. In the Philippines, Philippine entrepreneurs and the like who are exporting their products had been enjoying tax incentives (It does mean when exports live the country versus imports being received by the country then) as Philippine export earning is the one making the Philippine economy richer with money gained while import is making the money to go out of the country (going out as cost or expense) then while being revenue of another country (so that the profit of a country which is revenue less the expense is obviously what is the truth about any argument about tariff (which in a way is discriminating the deficit in becoming wider and wider to the pleasure of those who loved imported goods then).

As Donald made alot of American is b******s, Canada won't fall for it. I rather live a bit less richer, than become this dictator b****h. Good Luck USA! YOU VOTED FOR THIS MAN, BUT WE DIDNT!

I am a 72 years of female who lives in Canada with very strong American roots as I came here when I was 46 years of age. I have to say that what is happening between the United States of America and Canada breaks my heart. I have always known that Canada and United States of America worked and got along with each other all my life. Yes, my heart is broken for the Americans and the Canadiens who will suffer because of this trade war that President Trump started. Prayers for both countries.

Donald is a donkey. Fantastic speech. Long live Canada. ?

I don't care if people choose to destroy their lives with drugs, just don't increase prices for everything.

Hi Canada, can I come live with you guys? - just a nice gal from America who doesn't have a leader.

I’m a 53 year old Canadian. I went to college on an athletic scholarship & lived there for 10 years after turned professional in my sport. Why, why, why - with all the problems going on in the world right now to tackle - why would you want to start a trade war with your closest trading partner & most loyal ally? Not to mention that your list of Allies is shrinking daily. This is not going to end well for either of us. \nI just arrived home from a trip to the grocery store - making sure nothing in my cart said “ made in the USA” on it due to the new tariffs that began today. \nThe irony is, many of the states where Trump won by the biggest margin, are the states that are going to get hit the hardest from Canadian retaliation tariffs ( Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, the Dakotas - just to name a few). A lot of farmers in those states are going to be hit extremely hard with the fertilizer tax. After Canada, the next 3 largest Potash producers are Russia, Belarus & China. So , good luck \nWhen the cost of fruit & vegetables skyrocket across the US. Maybe you’ll put a little more thought into your vote 4 years from now.

I just live here, I’m not one of the ones who voted for this clown ?…

His a joke like all the politicians - no exceptions… talking about some numbers that doesn’t make sense… what a dirty way - to say indirectly to the American people to boycott their government ? trade war isn’t a war it call business - better than what any president that still support any people losing their lives in a nonsense conflict.

A 999% better speech as any of “Donald” ? who talks about peace but fights with all “alliances” ?\nPutin loves to attack innocent people living far from war zones, yeah thats the “good guy”.\nCanada, Mexico and also Europe really harrassing The US, OMG without them US will become third world country.

Trudeau was asked to do 1 thing. Take reasonable and responsible actions on drugs. He didn't. On purpose... He knew that this will cause tariff war which she wanted because now he will be able to blamed Trump for his government failures, price hikes, worsening standard of living in Canada, growin unemployment, inflation and other issues that Canada is facing, which are the reasons why Trudeaou is the least popular he ever was in there. Which is also why he will lose next elections and Pierre will replace him.

After the last four years of the Biden Harris administration shitshow I think we'll live! We've been going two hundred billion dollars in the hole dealing with Canada Canada.

Can I come live with you guys?

canada live long

I m not American but live in US and I stand with Canada!

Happy to be Canadian! Although I’m living in America.

I live in Washington State and I’ve stopped seeing “Beautiful British Columbia” license plates almost completely. Canada is not fucking around and I stand with them. They have been the best neighbors ever. ??❤️???

I will miss my Prime Minister Trudeau. He speaks for me, and I know, many others . . . .we aren't interested in buying American goods. We aren't interested in visiting the states. We are focused, at this point, on our own economy. In the last month I have discovered a few gems, produced by local businesses within 100 miles of where I live. Healthier for my family, healthier for my economy. More expensive, yah, a little. But in the long run, it will make us a stronger economy, a stronger nation.

I´m from Mexico but lived in Montreal because I love Canada: let´s keep MEX-CAN relationship anyway without the Donald!!!

What Trump did not live up to his word to you. I know, we feel your pain too. We are going to feel it for the next 3 years 10 months and 12 days.

I don't care what side of the fence you sit on. I did not need to hear this man speak to already know Canada was, but may yet be, our greatest ally and trading partner. I have no idea what possessed Mr. Trump to decide to stab our allies in the back, but it was not something good. 27.5% of voting age adults voted for him. How many of them were serenaded by hollow promises and a good slogan. Perhaps all of the mud slinging and Russian media interference helped? If you add in our more studious teenagers, truly reformed felons, and immigrants who actually deserve a gold card, that number plummets to less than 25%. I won't ask people to wake up, if you are reading this you are already more than capable of finding out that I speak only the hard truth. This means less than a quarter of america wanted this. This means your vote and opinions DO count. I know it is incredibly difficult to reach for and find answers in a world where your president or primary candidate throws 'fake news' in your face on a regular basis. He is actually telling the truth. When he is not telling you is that he is a primary enabler of 'fake news'. To him, only his word is law, only his opinion matters, only he deserves to be on top, and he deserves authority over all of your lives. Do the right thing, we all have a civil duty to understand our candidates to the very best of our ability. When a man has been convicted of dozens of felonies, and we tell you that this is only what we were willing to expose. You may want start believing us. The genuine facts of his past are unilaterally corrupting to our children and good people alike. Do not let the american people repeat their mistakes, force Mr. Trump to atone for his mistakes. No not empower him to sweep them under the rug for the sake of his own arrogance, because that is exactly what he is doing by trying to dismantle the CIA and FBI. These two institutions are shining examples of America's pursuit of freedom and justice. Freedom to keep billionaires from corrupting the morals of our children. Freedom to know that the rule of law is immutable, our constitution is not just a paper with fancy traditional sentiment. Even if the law may sometimes be bent for the sake of decency, forgiveness, and the pursuit of 'united we stand', our constitution cannot. Amendments require the FULL support of nearly all Americans, not 27.5% of unrestricted adults.

Trump and Musk are TRAITORS! Arrest them and deport them to Russia as they are so keen on supporting criminal Putin. Let them go live with him. See how they like that

I hope y’all who voted for Trump are proud of yourselfs. And thank goodness I am not living in the USA.

This is the way you handle a Bully; don't play the Bully's game. Our corrupt government has been corrupt since the beginning of our country and has had our Troops in 22 wars and our Troops are living with half their bodies, missing limbs and other disabilities our corrupt government has betrayed them and has sat on the sidelines watching the Gangsterville Enterprise aka White House say how they want to take their benefits. I care for my bedridden brother and have been caring for him for 5 years and I have never asked our corrupt government for compensation for caring for my brother. The corrupt government has kissed the ring and has lost their testicles with those damn black dresses. It's time take them for and do their jobs. We have a Consultation that was written decades ago to save us from this government corruption, it's time to stop the Shit Show and get our country back; we will be destroyed because Evil, Greed and Revenge never wins. United we stand and in God we trust amen ❤??

I would prefer to live in Canada than the USA. So ashamed of this government. The words peace is just a word to get ahead of other countries and victimize themselves.

40 million people live in Canada. I’m sure USA would do alright without Canada. This clown speaks on Americans like he is one, truly disrespectful. This guy is a big talker like Obama but soft. People like him are what causes stagnation and unemployment. Trump sells strength security fairness. Sorry if it hurts your little feelings.

As an American, I'm proud of my Canadian neighbor. We're on your side! ?? This will be the 5th or 6th Republican recession that I have lived through. I'm over it already.

This tariff war is a stupid idea. What happened to reducing the cost of living?

I was glad that not too long ago... Trump actually did say the truth to the American people: Canada imports 95% of it's goods from the USA... with us refusing to buy American, with all of us buying Canadian or International products instead... how will he be making America great again ?? By bankrupting the country ?? Does he thinks that 25% tariffs will make Canadians shake in their pants and all of a sudden want to be the 51st State ?? No, it's just like bringing us back to the days before NAFTA. We were able to live back then and we will be able to now as well.

As an American, I stand with Canada! Also, can I come live with you guys? i don't like it here anymore.

I live in California and I back Canada and Mexico. Do what you have to do Canada and Mexico. Trump is such a moron.

Proud of you Canada! US is now officially Russian state! After 3 years of brutal war Putin is un successful to occupy the whole Ukraine, and still Ukrainians are fighting hard even with losses, but US on the other hand become a Russian state in just 3 weeks! the most powerful military and country in the world become a puppet of a Dictator! without firing a single bullet!!! Trump is the most Idiot person who ever lived, and those who support him are most than morons!

Canada, I am standing with you from NC. Your leader and government are responding in an appropriate manner. trump and vance have brought shame to the US. All the lives that our country has lost in wars were not sacrificed to come to this moment.

Trump & his imbecilic red neck supporters are a global disgrace. Look at how America is treating it’s western allies, while in the same breath calling for the lifting of sanctions against Russia. Keep your eye on U.S. inflation figures & the skyrocketing cost of living for the average American person. Wake up people & stop drinking the Trump Kool-aide.

How many lives are worth this felon not being held accountable for being a crook with complete disregard for others lives?

Canadian’s can’t live month to month with the Sword of Damocles over our heads. I am glad we didn’t capitulate this month. These tariffs may hurt Canada more than the US but we are clearly far too dependent on the US and will benefit more from the tariffs in the long run (by reducing our dependency).

I just just don't understand what these blanket tariffs achieve for Americans. Firstly, employment in the US is at an all time high, if the aim is to bring back primary and manufacturing industries then it's just a myth. It's just pointless and mindless. Nobody wants to go back to working in heavy industry, people want high paying, highly specialized industries, this doesn't create that, it just makes cost of living higher so wages have to go up and cost of bringing in raw materials goes up, all things that discourage start up companies that employ well educated and skilled Americans
