2:51 you're darn right! If any ethnic people started flooding my town, I'd leave too! My town is 95% White and we'd like to keep it that way; clean and safe.

I thought trump would be different this time around. I was really hoping for his success, but not more than two months into his presidency he fired the very people that voted for him around the board. He crashed the stock market. He became Putins puppet, and he showed the world what a bully is like.

He said to the American people it’s bs bc us civilians can’t control what executive orders get passed like that’s threatening us civilians in our own country get out of here don’t say that u can do something to us

Trade war ?You take advantage of the American people . They are giving us what we voted for .This is Information war fare propaganda spoken like a true dictator.

President Trump is Wrong and Should be Stopped by The Supreme Court for violating His Sworn Duty to Serve Americans Citizens, NOT Russians INTERESTS. HE ASO IS BRINGING OUR COUNTRY INTO COMPLETE FINANCIAL SHUT DOWN A DEPRESSION. PUTTIN IS EVIL, BUT SLEEPING WITH HIM ISN'T THE ANSWER TO DEALING WITH HIM. PUTTIN PLANS TO DESTROY THE WORLD, GOG AND MAYGOG. WAKE UP AMERICA, GOD WARNED US ABOUT THE EVIL Leaders THAT WOULD LIE TO US SO THEY COULD CONTROL EVERYTHING EVEN THE COST OF FOOD And WHERE WE GET IT. TAKE NO MARKS ON YOUR HANDS OR HEAD. PAY ATTENTION AND PRAY FOR GOD'S INTERVENTION. MR. TRUMP IS OUT OF CONTROL AS IS HIS CABINET OF PEOPLE. THEY ACT LIKE THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT BECAUSE IT WON'T HURT THEM. IT WILL BE THE WEAK, ELDERLY, SICKLY, WIDOWS, CHILDREN AND THE POOR THAT WILL SUFFER EVEN MORE. WHAT ABOUT ALL OF THE HOMELESS AND THE FOLKS THAT ARE SUFFERING FROM FLOUDS AND FIRE. Washington could be fixing our National problems but they aren't. People are hurting every day in America. Getting poorer and poorer every day. Maybe that's Washington's plan to kill off the needy.

Stand ur ground, Canada.\nTrump thinks he can push people around, intimidate, Like a wannabe mob Boss, hes a manboy. He only wishes he was tough. remember He avoided war because of a hang nail. ?

You Go Trudeau. Well done. Donald is an idiot. Trump is clearly being manipulated by Putin and He's not smart enough to figure it out. I think Putin has something on Trump like a legal issue or something to do with money. Just a quick Question for the people who voted for Trump. Are you still happy with your decision voting for Trump? We have to push Trump out of the White House and in to a prison cell.

from Italy... I wish italian people will find a man like mr Trudeau one day as prime minister... I wish the best to canadian people

Trudeau is traitor to his own people leaving his office in disgrace. True Canadians don’t like him

Hold on there, boy, questionable, immigration policies. Both Canada and the United States were built on immigration, unless you are part of the first nations these types of inflammatory statements, are historically illogical. Countries like the United States of America, Canada, and Australia, New Zealand, and many parts of South America all grew with immigration. People in these countries that have been around a generation or more who decide to pull up the ladder have short memories from where they came. Regarding housing, it is always been and issue in many places and is affected by foreign investors and interest rates. Usually at some point there is a correction, some people win some people lose.

Trump has destroyed trust in US allies, and it can ont be repaired easy. Trust can be destroyed in minutes, but it takes many years, maybe decades, before it can be gained again. It affects not only what US experiences right now with Canada and Mexico. Be sure that even Taiwan Australia and all other Asian allies are questioning right now if USA can be trusted. Imagine, Trumps breaks a treaty with Canada and Mexico which he personally has established in his first presidency and sold to his people as the greatest deal that has ever been archieved. Tells you a lot about US credebility. Trump is right now destroing world order which has been established mainly by USA after WW2.\nI heared, that there are rumors, that Trump might be a Russian KGB agent since 1987. I don't know if that is true, but it would explain a lot of why Trump is acting as he does - it is not in the interest of USA, pressurizing/blackmailing/offending/humiliating US allies and destroying US and foreign economies. This is practically enacting a wishlist of foreign dictators like Putin and Xi Chin Ping.\nIt certainly will not make America great again, but poorer, weaker and internationally isolated. it will be US people that will suffer the most.

Dumb Americans. Drumpf is peeling his people like potatoes

Wow, Trump is making some huge progress for the USA, in less than a month he has upset more countries, of which were mostly allies of America, and turned them into anti Americans and all in less than a month, and he calls that progress into making America great again .. maga ? Really or maybe it stands for making a globe angry. There’s only a very small handful of people that actually like Trump, that’s his family (debatable) JD (his puppet) and Putin (his new ally) wow America what have you done ??

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent coverage of one of the greatest tragedies perpetrated on the American people by its leader. I strongly take issue with the Wall Street Journal opinion of Donald Trump, being a smart man. Only a flaming idiot would let Vladimir Putin play them like a puppet. God bless Canada and it’s unbelievably understanding beautiful people who’s empathy is boundless and God bless Justin Trudeau, who will be unbelievably missed on the world stage and as a beloved, American, cousin, and dear neighbor‼️

Trudeau is a clown. This is a guy who thwarts free speech and jailed his own people and took their money away during peaceful protests. Canada has enjoyed a a trade surplus against us forever. They also do not have to pay for military since they are right next to us. They should be doing whatever we want. Canada was sending recyclable trash to the Philippines. When the trash arrived it was not recyclable. Philippine president said stop sending but Canada continued to send it. So finally he said if you send one more ship, we will declare no war on you. And if that happened, without US help, even the Philippines would destroy Canada in a war. Way more fighting aged males and Canada has a worthless military. Canada has a GDP of 5-10% of US. So Trudeau acting tough is hilarious. Like a chihuahua barking at a grisly bear. If push came to shove, in the time of US war need, the US would simply take whatever it wanted from Canada. That's what happens when you don't develop your own substantial military-just like Europe now.

What makes Donald Trump think Canada would want any part of this shit storm current Trump‘s first term the Canadian immigration website crashed as people were trying to be out of here. Canada definitely has more sensible leadership why our country is led by a grifter who has turned a lot of sensible and educated Americans into zombies or should I say he’s like the big bully on the playground someone should’ve told Donald Trump that you get more flies with honey than vinegar

Trudeau was right when he said it was dumb. The US tariffs are simply about bringing America to its knees and destroying America. That is why the country is being recklessly run. The idea is to destroy the American way of life and America. Have you seen a 3rd world country run. The fighting and the division in the 3rd world country? The events over the past weeks are not about efficiency. 1 worker doing 15 people's jobs. Who is running the government? Tariffs are one more thing to destroy America. US government federal workers all let go, paying government employees pennies on the dollars and lying to the American public about efficiency, farmers and textile workers that voted are stranded without jobs, social security being destroyed, programs being destroyed, Americans being lied to, Americans being taken advantage of due to poor knowledge and education, education being taken away and putting un-elected immigrants/foreigners to run/destroy America. Yes, the Tariffs are one more thing to put Americans in the street, turn off their electricity, take away their heating system, and make America into a poor 3rd world country. Trudeau and Canada are protecting its workers - federal and private and yes, all of Canada. Canada is United. Americans better find Unity like the Canadians are doing versus worrying about who voted Red or Blue.

Unfortunately, i think that trump (he does not deserve un upercase) dreams of becoming like putin. All that he is doing, everything in his language and actions screams dictator. I think that putin dreams of having the entire Europe to himself and that trump will actually want everything around the USA which includes ofc, Canada. That was their deal. I don't understand why americans are standing by just watching things unfold. It will not get better, this can only and will get worse. Sooner than they think they will find themselves trapped under these people, with no rights. It is really hard when you are already there to actually go back to democracy.

Hey justin Castro, unify the people? Like the TRUCKERS and their Funds they needed, that you seized, to peacefully protest!

Don't worry Tariffs are paid for by Canada I really do not know if he is so stupid he believes that or he knows and does not care either way it is so dumb and hurtful to think otherwise. The last time tariffs like this were in place was the late 1800's and early 1900's. If anyone know this time it was the time of the oligarchs like Rockefellers Carnegies that road the backs of the everyday Americans making them the richest people in the world. Notice a theme here, I do!!

From Europe: A bunch of assholes in the White House want's to act like strong guys. In real they are weak and serving a narcissist psychopath who is killing the us economy and international relations. The American people will soon wake up to find themselves ripped off.

The fentanyl BS from Trump is so insulting. The US wastes insane amount of time and money catching and jailing LSD, weed, and shrooms users and acts like Canada's dedicated focus on dangerous hard drugs isn't good enough. He should mind his stupid war on harmless drugs instead of attacking people tackling the truly dangerous ones

I wish we had people like him in Italy??, instead we have ? and ???

The only thing that's going to pay for that little wagging d*ck power monger is The People. So proud of tariffs and snubbing cooperative relationship. All the leaders are like, 'I see your tariff and raise it 5%.' So proudly talking about agreements = tariffs. The only profiteers from this are gov'ts and bribe takers. Capitalism swallows itself.

Wow. What a speech! He is stating facts and is open to cooperation and some people still believe the Orange Man in the White House who is speaking like a 9 year old to his class mates and is spreading OBVIOUS lies all the time is the best leader ever.

Ha Donald this is what a TRUE LEADER LOOKS AN SOUNDS LIKE AN THE ONE THAT YOU WILL NEVER EVER EVER BE . Donald set back in the corner and lesson to true leadership is . We as Americans will always stand with Canada an YOU STAND WITH RUSSIA, North Korea an other dictatorship countries. The America people will stand TOGETHER AS YOU STAND IN THE CORNER BY YOURSELF STOMPING YOUR LITTLE FEET .

I’m a dual citizen of the USA and the UK and have been so disgusted by Trump, he projects evil, he’s smarmy and egotistical. I just don’t understand how many of my American friends act like he’s right up there with God, I just can’t fathom their thinking. It’s all about taking ownership of anything he wants and he bullies until he gets what he wants. I’m sick of people saying Pres Zelenskyy needs to apology to Trump, Zelenskyy did nothing wrong, he was calm and polite. Vance and Trump immediately went in on the attack, both bullies! Then to moan about Zelenskyy offending the Oval Office by not wearing a suit. Have they looked at Musk lately? Don’t know what he’s wearing but it ain’t no suit. During war times leaders often wear combat clothes to show they are with their country and soldiers. I must say I wouldn’t be upset if anyone popped him off! He does need to go.

It's not at all surprising. Republicans only impose laws and policies that hurt their people, supporting only the rich and wealthy. Never the many. This will likely only hurt republicans attempting to get elected in this country moving forward. Unless they try to take our democracy away. In which case we will be forced to eat the rich to feed the poor.

Trudeau, who applauded the Ukrainian Nazi in parliament... In 1941-45, this Ukrainian Nazi slaughtered people like dogs. And now churches, parties, media, and the opposition are banned in Ukraine... People are being killed, businesses are being taken away... Ukrainians are being banned from leaving the country...

PM TRUDEAU, Vive le Canada!! Stand tall, most Americans did not vote for Donald Trump the traitor, compulsive liar, his new play stooge - Elon Musk, who was not an elected official - he bought his “special employee position” by donating\n$6 billion to his presidential campaign! \n\nTrump is not trustworthy, he never was, he’s a compulsive liar, always was, he manipulates people - always did to get his way, he doesn’t know American history or European history- never did, he adored reading about Adolf Hitler and how he manipulated the German people to turn against Jews and minorities just like what is being done today by his REPUBTARD PARTY who are afraid to stand up against SATAN -this is who TRUMP sold his soul to to gain the White House including Putin,

No nations will win on trade wars, just like Ukraine and Russian years of war, both nation people sufferings from leaders misunderstanding of power. Only Inflation to rise. Hardship and suffering of the people coming theses days.

Mexico always has been an ally for USA and Canada, I don't know why USA goverment treat us like this, we should be working together instead of this, the only affected people are the people in the 3 countrys

I’m Thai and I want to move to Canada. Canadians seem like the politest and most reasonable people in the world.

I’ve read a lot of comments from people saying “Trudeau ruined Canada” in response to people expressing their support for Trudeau in this time.\n\nThat’s not really a great point.\n\nIf Trudeau hasn’t been good for Canada, but gives a coherent, inspiring, and professional speech in this moment that unites Canadians and others alike, then that should speak so much to how awful this situation is. Huge respect to Trudeau and Canada for not backing down. I hope one day we’ll be allies with the right side of the world again.\n\nWe wanna talk about a leader ruining a country? That’s what Donald is doing right now. Except he won’t unite us in the future with a speech like this.\n\nThis American stands with Canada!

Trudeau your people hate you just like Americans hate Biden I Thought you were going to resign? . You talk fentinal but you refuse to close off smuggling, don't lie to us or the world.

New Zealander here. Stay strong Canada. Don't let Trump screw you over like he does to his own people.

Very straightforward condemnation against the Trump administration on these tariffs. Trump is looking for trouble at the expense of the citizens without thinking about the welfare of the people. Trump wants to bankrupt Canada because it has ample resources and Trump wants Canada to be the 51st state. It is quite impossible to bankrupt Canada because it can always expand its international trade to other countries, like Europe, etc. Do not tolerate the bully. Salute to Trudeau for being honest to confirm that there are no winners in this stupidity.

Look at mr Fidel Castro over there acting like he gives a shit about his people. No im not a Trump fan all politicians are trash.

Trump and Maga are like any crazy regime, absolutely full of magical thinking and not based in reality. So 2+2 = 6 and if you don’t agree, you hate America. Average Americans are expected to believe that a bunch of billionaires and companies that have been robbing them blind for 40 years will now have their backs because they are actually in government instead of just pulling the strings from the sides. Or because they trigger the right people on the Internet. . I also hate how every leader in the world has to pay some kind of false reverence to Trump even though they all know he’s nuts out of some kind of decorum. Just want somebody with balls to get up and say fuck him and fuck his lunacy. And shove your decorum up your arse because Trump doesn’t have any. It’s about time you realise what you’re dealing with and pull the gloves off. Playing nice and nice and reasonable is only playing into his hands.

Its because you are a communist ma'am. Remember why you stepped down?\nYour own people dont like you. \nAmerica voted for Trump. \nMajority vote. Take your one world government ideas to your mommy.

I Would like People to Know, as Far as Best President's in the History 2024 Ranking, Predident Obama was Ranked 7th, President Biden Ranked 14th, and Finally, where do think the individual that's back in the most Powerful Office Ranked, Dead last, and still they put him back in to office after all the Turmoil this child has brought to America, now I wonder, is America this Naive to be Conned again, and with all the Destruction and Hate on his hands, Amazing!!!?

Mr. Tiptoe can shove it. Trump didn't start this trade war, Canada has been tariffing USA for decades. The whole world does... Starving out the one country that actually has freedom. Freedom to kick out government when it becomes corrupt and against the people. The western side of Canada is more than welcome to stop subsidizing the east, and pay like half the taxes. Instead of stars we will throw a couple maple leafs on it and call it a day.... In the interest of international security.

As a Canadian, I would like to thank every people from the USA against this madness from the Pumpkin Clown, Vancy the puppy, Lutnick the Dwarf and their circus crew. Thanks also to everyone else around the world also against this madness. As for the stupid ones supporting Trump... who cares about you? You're all low IQs and vain anyways. *LET'S STAND STRONG AGAINST TRUMP AND HIS CIRCUS!*

You're sounding scared Truedo. ? besides all that we see how you treat your people for simple things like praying. Drown in your misery and quit trying to get Americans on your side

It's crazy how you people can put up with all this jargon every day politicians lawyers TV news like a bunch of ants fighting over bread I'm so proud of myself for getting rid of my TV in 1992 and not being part of the matrix I laughed my Sicilian balls off as a pray my rosary for all you people that just don't get it Turn your TVs off for one month hide your smart phone free yourselves like a bunch of ants running around instead of a shoebox after a piece of bread money hungry I can go on forever and ever etc. etc. love one another like Jesus loves us it's not about money Ben Franklin is not the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth is . Remember the poor we're suffering not like a fake Rich you should've voted Michael Jackson as president you people are all crazy it's all greed every country every president all greed every politician greed money money money money money money money money money greed

You know I’ve been killing myself working non stop for like a decade trying to hold it all together because of all the increased prices of everything. As a result I have not been paying attention. I know the tariff thing was happening, but didn’t know why this was a thing. \n\nShame on me for not being more up to date. \n\nI also know nothing about Trudeau or his political stance on literally anything aside from what he talked about in this video. \n\nI must say this was of speaking is EXACTLY what I expect from a world leader. Everything was delivered very well and without personal emotions. He’s not going off the cuff and saying whatever pops into his head. THIS is the exact style of communication we need from world leaders. I don’t see how it helps anyone, anywhere in the world to have people in control of nuclear armed nations to be shooting from the hip with communication.

This guy talks like he cares about American people

Im sorry Mr Trudeau, im sorry Canadian people. This American voted against this madness, and I do not support this ally of the evil of the world that is currently occupying the white House. This executive branch of the US government, along with the propaganda machine are fueling the supporters of this nonsense and they may not be able to determine the trauma that decisions like these tariffs, like putting down a great leader of a sovereign nation that was attacked by an aggressive country like Russia. This is going to do nothing but hurt people on every side.

Seems like every country is threatening the US indirectly..... funny people as long as things were all hunky dory for themselves they licked up to any other country and the moment they have to pay the actual price of the sacrifices made by others they start threatening them..... Castro's lovechild really needs a reality check.

I am agreement with canada. We all citzens in good people in this world should work together because over come evil as to people like trump is.
