Most Americans living in the U.S. today aren’t originally from there — their ancestors migrated from Europe just a few centuries ago. Yet documentaries like this make it seem as if others are ‘taking over’ their land. The same story exists in places like Australia, where the original Indigenous population is now a small minority. Over time, migration changes every country’s demographics — it’s a global reality, not an invasion. Even cities like London, Toronto, or New York are built by immigrants from across the world. So before calling it a ‘takeover,’ remember that every nation today stands on layers of migration, adaptation, and cultural exchange.

Australia stands with our Commonwealth ally.

I'm not Canadian but I love Canada. Awesome people, awesome country. I'm 100% on your side. Trudeau rocks - he's smart, intelligent and honest. Please keep him as PM. Come to Europe, come to Australia & NZ. We love you guys, The tariffs are outrageous and disgusting and total kudos for standing up to the bully.

The United States has elected a president who is turning its longest-standing allies into adversaries. This isn't just about Canada. The entire Western world is watching. While the U.S. has the power to harm its allies, those allies also have the ability to push back, and the USA is rapidly losing friends who may not return. As America’s alliances weaken, so do the obstacles its rivals face. \n\nTake Australia, for example. Should it continue aligning with the U.S. in the Asia-Pacific region? Should it continue hosting critical American surveillance infrastructure? Should it keep supporting and supplying the U.S. fleet? The USA enjoys a trade surplus with us, but do we need to spend USD$50 billion over the next decade buying your hardware? The Europeans seem to be a more trustworthy ally, who don't make us a target.\n\nThe USA would argue that their presence ensures security, but the reality is that countries like Australia only face threats because they are tied to U.S. strategic interests. Perhaps a more pragmatic approach that avoids unnecessary antagonism with China would serve us better. \n\nAs for Canada, it will adapt and find new trading partners, just as Australia did when China attempted economic coercion. And through it all, Canada, know that Australia will stand with you—always.

Massive respect from Australia ?? ohh boy Trudeau got Frumpy by the ghoulies lol ? ???Go Canada ?? from Down Under we stand with you. Frumpy has put tariffs on our stuff too! I’m off to buy some delicious real Canadian ?? maple syrup and whipping up a batch of delicious pancakes on Saturday morning. ?

From Australia, we stand with Canada. Our commonwealth allies.

Love from Australia Canada! So proud of you for standing up to to the orange autocrat! We are with you!

Watching in Australia. Excellent speech, done with strength, class and compassion. ??. Standing with Ukraine and Canada.

Bravo! Great speech! Thank you for standing up for Truth & Common Sense, Canada! From Australia.

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.

Australia stands with Canada always!!!!!!!!!!!

Australia stands with Canada!

Australia stands with Canada

Standing with Canada from Australia. The only way to treat a bully is strength. Chapeau Prime Minister Trudeau

Please attend to this, Australia. Your media has no idea. Every word of this should be ringing through the halls of our Parliament, prompting urgent rethinking of where we stand in the geopolitical landscape.

Australia stands with Canada. The U.S has been infiltrated completely by Russia, and we should treat it as such.

For those of you who don’t get a lot of real and unbiased news in Trump’s Greater America…watch these documentaries from Australia and decide for yourself. There is a lot of circumstantial evidence behind Trump stealing both elections. Trump’s actions have become more extreme, as he greatly fears the consequences for ALL of his Criminal actions. Watch ABC Australia’s three part Four Corners Documentary exposing both Trump’s comprehensive and long-standing links with Russia and their cyber-espionage during the elections in the US. Also explains Trump seeking unwarranted control over all levels of law and its’ enforcement. He probably didn’t win this recent election either as the Russians have clearly done a deal with him to put him into power. He is now an (un)official Russian operative and things Putin won’t betray him….but Putin is younger and far better at removing obstacles that stand in his way. Trump may have a convenient heart attack once he’s served his purpose.

Supporting Canada from Australia. Trump's tyranny will not stand. Viva Canada!

Australia stands in support of Canada!

Ok, to be honest, this is exactly what the other side want, reactions/panic. Trump loves it...but be honest... he is a buissnessman(!), don´t ever forget that!! My heart struggel so hard with this one... How? Why? When/Ever?\n\nTo Canadian Prime minister: I hear you and will make a change as a born child 1976, Euorpean. US was the ONE-country to discover as a young fellow! I will for now on also hearing Canadian news and other countries like Australia, France, Great Britain, South Africa, Japan, etc. Democracy <3 \n\nUS we hear you still but this is NOT ok!!! It would be to go against our absolut nearest neighbour hood! Our most trusted!! We love them!!! How can you??!! We would never do that!! Our countries are united and will stand together, beside what one person or government says, that is democracy!!! Stand up US people!!! \nWe are united, we are one! Don´t let his words get you, ever!

Good on you Canada, Australia supports your standing up to Trump. He has even hit Australia with tariffs on steel and Aluminium. Trump is a criminal and a traitor to his country.

Standing with you Canada here in Australia ! A dignified, respectful, articulated response. Thankyou

Australia ??stands with Canada ?? and Ukraine ?? \nTrump complains about Canada — but new data shows spike in U.S. drugs and guns coming north - CBC\nHumpty Dumpty is a psychopath and hypocrite \nMidterms2026 VOTE ? Special Elections start APR 1st Florida

Australia stands with CANADA and UKRAINE ????????

Trudeau, You are standing down. Please move to Australia. We need a leader like you

Trump is doing this so he thinks Canada will fold and give their beautiful country to him! Stand strong Canada. We, in Australia, another Commonwealth country, are behind you ?

Respect from Australia, this is exactly what Canada should do, stand up to this bully. I don't think you should bother trying to negotiate with him, Trump is a liar and a fool and talking to him is a waste of time, he's too stupid to understand. When the US slaps you, slap them back. I sincerely hope to see Mexico respond in the same way, slap Trump back twice as hard.\n\nIf the US wants to go kissing Putins ass, go on, but don't try to force the rest of us to kiss his ass with you.\nIf the US wants to find savings in government #DefundElonMusk a filthy rich man receiving government aid, he's sucked up $38 billion, that's government waste in the extreme.

I'm from New Zealand. I live in Australia ?? I stand with Canada ??

Trump managed to piss off Canada, a country that literally has no issues with anyone, like how do you do that? Canada is like the nice popular girl out of the popular girls group. Like she knows she’s pretty and popular but is humbled about it . And when her friends bully you, she stands up for you. Only trump can manage to piss off someone like that off. From Australia, we stand with you Canada!
