Can world does trade without America? See if America can live without other countries?

Whatever you are suggesting, we will do better without you around.

USA is no longer aligned with democratic nations, it is with the autocrats. It's the dawn of a new world order. Glad Trudeau spoke to Donald in the way he did. To be clear. This is how a narcissist acts. He does not respect those who are closest to him - he does not care about allies and connection, he sees these folks (and nations) as weak - he is about control and domination. Narcs do this in their personal lives. And if you are not weak and don't bend to his will, they will unleash their actions to control - and if they have the power (and the prez is the most powerful person in the world) they will have all the power at this disposal and will not stop until they achieve their aim, destruction be damned. And that is why it was so dangerous to let Dump go without accountability. His deluded self thinks he's an unmitigated genius and he's the top of the food chain. For him it's blaring green lights all the way in his polluted mind. Dump 2.0 is unchecked now, so he is unleashing the narcissism disease upon the world.

You are right Justin Trudeau, Donald Trump treats us Canadians just like you do! If you are not freezing bank accounts, you are either deigning an election or hiding behind (your Elon) Jagmeet Singh! Well done for a drama teacher, without experience! \nFYI: You should screw Trump over like we are going to do you at the polls!

George from UK, I love the direct call out of this dictator. No one is an island who can operate alone without the rest, especially those long-time allies. It is a dumb thing to rise against your friends. Why do you have to rake up enemies, even from allies? South Africa, Ukraine, Canada?

Oh how he Loves the righteous Drama. He is really going to make all the best he can out of this. Awwwww Yes Pleaaase more Dramaaa Ohhĥhhhhh ?\nBefore saying how trump is evil blablabla as a fact without actually explaining anything. Why don't you, Trudeau, start by explaining. Maybe you don't want people to Actually understand anything. You just want to make the best of out the potential drama and self endulge in the ego feeding and self righteousness.

fyi Justin Trudeau spends $1600 a week on groceries. How disconnected this cheesecake is from the plight of everyday Canadians is unimaginable. To the idiots applauding this maniacal man child, you have no clue that this imbecile has led Canada into this oblivion. He has sent a quarter trillion dollars to Ukraine with no accountability, he has brought in immigrants from every crack of the world without facilitating housing for Canadians, or immigrants. He has even suggested that Canadians 'open up their homes' so he does not have to build apartments and proper housing. Do not let this devil fool you. He does not care about Canadians in any sense. His focus rather is on the immigrants he is bringing in, who will eventually replace the Canadians he is killing off, thereby assuring a future of unquestioning liberal votership.

It's been 3 years and Putin still hasn't managed to conquer Ukraine, but the Tsar of all the Russias only needed 3 weeks to take the United States of America--and without losing a single soldier.

putin is laughing out loud at the corner watching the US empire & global north crumbling beyond no return - without firing a single bullet. if that's not a masterclass Chase player, nothing is!

What I like about Justin is that he is clear, concise and talking WITHOUT cue cards. He does not lower his IQ with elementary antics of NAME CALLING like DT seems to often do. \n\n?

I'm not sure that will work. The U.S. economy is vastly stronger and more established—just consider the military alone, without even going further. So, if there’s a clear winner, I don’t believe it would be Canada. Canada has been facing economic challenges even before this announcement, though few paid attention. Just look at the streets of Vancouver—set aside the media and propaganda!

Donald Trump is doing a great job at destroying the U.S. all this time various terrorist groups tried to attack America and failed... when all they had to do was recruit Trump and the deed would've been done without mass casualties ??‍♂️\n\nwhat a sad, sad day for Americans...

As a Dutch citizen, I also want a PM like this. How do we get one of these instead of forgetting PM, and PM without having any say in his cabinet or a Harry Potter look a like?

As a European, I support Canada 100%. I can't understand how educated people voted such a disaster into office not once, but twice. Basic economics can be grasped without the need for a college degree. I'm wondering why your tuition is so high. Your economy is set to collapse. America, you are in for a plunge into disaster.

No one should have fentanyl without a Dr's prescription.

Better this guy goes back to his fight for LGBT; let’s see in the next days if he really has balls or he’s just good to talk as usual without acting

I think Trudeau wins the Heart ❤️ of not only the Canadians but of those of rest of the world who considers Bullying or threatening others not only unethical but a level of blackmailing as well. Nowadays this is being done by 'Donlad' as phrased by Justin Trudeau the Canadian Brave Prime Minister. So as an outcome of his speech the World feels better without 'Trump'. The rest of the world must respond to such illogical approaches as did Justin Trudeau??

Europe is open for business and friendship! Donald has paradoxically begun to hammer the final coffin nail to American Supremacy as the USA's former allies come together without them.

This is why YOUNGER people should be in office! So the OLD people can just enjoy their drinks while the real adults run the world. \nAt least younger folks understand teamwork and acceptance. Something people born before the 80s seem to have lived without.

EU incl all other NATO nations, that you're ZERO without US. You will even not fight with Iran as a combined force.

Canada ?? come on - buy European goods. Much more high quality standard and better food, buy our food and cooperate with us without taxes ?? ? ??

Probably, the best course of action... Buy the dip... Maybe if you have some cash aside, you should ponder on how bad this gets. But at one point, something will give, and things will go back up. White house mutiny? What I do know is that at one point something will give... The pushback is inevitable. And the Vilan is the man who is trying to change everything without any proper thought at all. If your actions do not make sense, Mr. Trump, than they are a facade; and that is wrong. Pulling the woole over your citizens' eyes is not democracy...

Could US take on the Veitcong or the Taliban or the Germans or the Italian's or anyone on there own???? Tell me what war the US has won on its own? They couldnt even take on tribes without serious losses ?. The amount of people laughing & mocking us when you arent even educated ????

Trudeau is rubbish. This is his only time to speak on mic. He is respected less than Pakistani president at world stage. Baby is Just-in, that's not the calculation boy the real effect will be when your companies move to USA without tax and their products will be made USA

This isn’t about left or right. It’s about truth, freedom, and the future. Trump thrives on division, fear, and power. without accountability.\n\nDemocracy dies when we stay silent. We can’t afford that. Stand up. Speak out. The fight isn’t over.

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.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OUR NATION IS UNDER ATTACK. TRUMP AND HIS CULT OF RIGHT WING REPUBLICAN EXTREMISTS ARE DISMANTLING OUR CONSTITUTION THE ONE THAT WAS ENACTED BY OUR FOUNDING FATHERS. THEY ARE ERASING OUR HUMAN RIGHTS AND OUR FREEDOMS AS WE SPEAK. JUST YESTERDAY THE GREENPEACE ORGANIZATION WAS SUED FOR 300 MILLION DOLLARS FOR DEFENDING OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO A PEACEFUL PROTEST. THE STOCK MARKET HAS BEEN PLUMMETING, PLUMMETTING, IN RESPONSE TO THE NEW TARIFFS ON OUR CLOSEST TRADING PARTNERS. SOON THERE WILL BE MILLIONS OF AMERICANS LEFT WITHOUT HEALTHCARE COVERAGE, MILLIONS!!!!! MILLIONS OF CHILDREN AND MILLIONS OF SENIORS LEFT TO DIE!!!!!! DONALD TRUMP HAS FORMED A PACT WITH THE COMMUNIST RUSSIAN DICTATOR VLADIMIR PUTIN AND HIS MISSION IS TO OVERSEE THE DESTRUCTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. WE MUST MOVE QUICKLY TO IMPEACH AND REMOVE THE SATANIC THE FATHER OF ALL LIES FROM THE WHITE HOUSE BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.

From SOUTH AFRIKA - Good Job President Trudeau. Trump has gone bananas, literally. In South Afrika Trump and Afriforum (racist Boere aka white racist organisation that misses and pushes Apartheid agenda) are causing havoc by spreading propoganda of lies about non- existing land grabs and white genocide. These lies are being peddled and given life by that Mars Alien - Elon Musk because we refused his SPYlink Satellite without an empowerment stake (Black Economic Empowerment - which is regulated due to past imbalances). He got mad mad and started working racist right wing organisation that misses segregation

He talks without looking at the script, impressive!

Who exactly is your enemy in this world? Leaders like Trudeau, Zelenskyy, Starmer, and most European leaders often sound like staunch supporters of AIPAC. Meanwhile, Trump negotiated with Russia and China to establish peace deals and broader economic opportunities that could benefit everyone. In contrast, these diabolical figures seem to be freeloading, using U.S. tax dollars to pursue their own agendas, targeting anyone who doesn’t align with them—including major superpowers. This isn’t America’s problem to solve. They refuse to admit that without the U.S., they have no leverage left to play with.

No business that run without Canada , American will pay a big price to please Putin

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.

Trump destroys his own friends .america is nothing without British commonwealth. And he will learn that when he meets with King Charles.

Canada without USA could easily be invaded by other non powerful country. Please show humility and respect, be careful with your powerful neighbour.\nTrump knows Canada has nothing to defence themselves when something bad is going to happen

He’s a big man talking from Canada,but the truth is he’s in trouble without the US ,And we voted our leaders in..

1:20\nYeah, Trudeau just threatened to block energy exports without _technically_ threatening to block energy exports.\n\nGrab your popcorn, everyone, this is gonna be a wild ride. ?

i know Trudeau gets a lot of crap from people, but my god this was a hell of a speech. same with Bernie Sanders' speech. i got goosebumps and also trying to fight back tears simultaneously. my ex wife is disabled receiving social security, medicare, and medicaid due to being in a wheelchair and requiring consistent medical care and attention. she receives, and is expected to survive on, $800 a month and $300 in foodstamps. she lives in campgrounds which is 90% cheaper than rent, and still has to budget, struggle and go without a lot to make life work all while being in tremendous pain and reliant on help from others. Trump, Elon, and all the other billionaires in charge are literally trying to make the ones suffering the most to suffer more while making them even richer. its absolutely disgusting how soulless these CEOs are. the world is ashamed of us and frankly if you are American and not ashamed and embarrassed by what these billionaires are doing with our relationship to not only our country but the entire world....then you arent a patriot, you are a cult follower, and you are part of the problem.

He kept a cool head when DT described it as the 51st U.S. state, with the intention of annexing Canada.\n\nThe fact that he will leave his post as prime minister in a few days has allowed him to speak without complex and without restraint, but also influenced by the serious threat to the country and its economy. He leaves with his head held high with a speech that will go into history, it will be part of his legacy.\n\nThe comments are complimentary of Canada, and it is true that they are kind, caring and welcoming people. To be part of it for 40 years, I am currently impressed by the solidarity of the people who boycott American products in supermarkets. They do not do it to harm the Americans they appreciate (spend their holidays at home) but to punish DT for his arrogance and lies. Human stupidity has no nationality.

US trying to be partner with Russia while competing against China and threatening Nokor who by the way are Russia's bffs. Is this how america became great before? Isolating himself? America was too busy being nosy with other countries' businesses for decades now they are trying to act like the world cannot live without Uncle Sam.

I'm sure other more friendly countries will continue to trade with Canada, without penalties.\nTrump is not a diplomat, not a statesman, and not really presidential material; the US just didn't have much to choose from.

If it sounds good to your ears, Trump will spit out without worrying about consequences with Trump style, Russian sleeper cell agent NOW just wake up JUST LIKE Dracula and wracking has already started by wracking our federal government with all the lies and exaggerations making mountain out of molehills! As usual Trump's style to get your attention BY making mountains out of molehills all the small issues that can be resolved. I hereby declare ENTIRE Americans, except Russian Agent Trump's accomplice, young immature, arrogant, charlatan young JUST 40-year-old young pnk JD Vance and vast majority of Republican Party members. Henceforth, be aware that Russian agent Trump is about wracking the US and free world order, he should be removed when the Democrat Party wins both House and Senate! US

More work for Americans equals happier economy for American households how is this bad that Americans will have more opportunities without a degree just give job training and Americans are capable

I'm a Canadian and I welcome becoming the 51st! I'm sorry for what our communist canada has allowed to pour into your country. Hopefully we can become the 51st without any violence and see some real prosperity. Canada was sold by our prime minister long ago, hopefully yall can buy it back. God bless america!

I miss leaders who can read, use a mature vocabulary, pronounce words correctly, speak clearly in complete sentences and thoughts and without lying in every sentence. He’s a man who knows what he is doing, making clear decisions which benefit his countrymen. Unlike the Felon-in-Chief who is bulldozing all our relationships with allies and, instead, siding with our greatest enemy, Putin.

Canadá wants to continue benefiting from USA Just like China without paying!!

2 things we don't want in Canada. The Liberal crooks and a trade war with the US. That man Trudeau ruined Canada more that Biden and Kamala did to the US.Trudeau supported fentanyl in Canada. Allowing users to commit crimes without legal consequence. Catch amd release when they commit home invasions stabbings break amd enter. Tax payer funded injection sites. Only changed his tune to please Trump.

The US is isolating itself from the world. It is indeed the strongest and the richest country. But the decisions, the current admin has made will damage the United States. Specifically the people of the estates with or without knowing, they will pay for the cost caused by the wrong decision made by MAGA. This is really sad to see how they divide themselves and the world. Only a few of idiots has gotten so much power to harm normal people who are only interested in living a peace and happy life with loved ones or their own family but now their suffer just started.

You can tell by the comments these people are out of touch with reality. Trudeau took your freedom away, taxes you to death, and Crys like a sissy boy and you still lick his boots. Canada wouldn't be ?without the US. Your government has been living high on the hog off of old Uncle Sam and now that he is leveling the playing field you're squealing like little girls. Grow up!

protect unborn babies protect disabled people from euthansia without consent or coersion

I came to Canada 45 years ago from Colombia and I love Canada. It gave me opportunities to become a proud citizen without forgetting my roots.\nI stand with Prime Minister Trudeau and we are all proud of him .
