As an American, I am ashamed and appalled. Please, Canada, please, know that many stand with you and support boycotts of the US.

Justin as an American we don't care. We have enough money to ride this out until we own your country. Dont worry about us please. Worry about your third rate economy.

As an American citizen I just want to say thank you our president is so screwed up he's taking our nation down the toilet and none of the Republicans will even help they won't voice their opinions they won't help their own people that is shameful so please do what you have to do we understand we voted for Biden vice president not Trump and no he is not a very smart guy Pam or Elon

I As an American citizen can only hope that we would have a president in office with the intelligence, compassion and dignity that PM Trudeau has. At this time I am truly ashamed of my country. Especially the ones that put this hateful, revenge seeking, criminal monster in our White House. I stand with you 100% Canada. I also hope that maybe within the next year, trump will be gone. I don't know how or where but just gone. As intelligent as prime minister Trudeau is I have to disagree with one comment he made. trump is NOT a smart man. He is nothing but a 34 count convicted felon, rapist and criminal wannabe dictator. I shudder at the thought of the end of his four year disaster. What will our country do when we have no allies whatsoever. He loves russia and putin, His puppet master. He does not understand that Russia has never been our friend, is not our friend. And never will be our friend. He just loves putin because He wants to be just like him. He is the United States very own Adolf Hitler. Also , I have removed our flag from my front yard that I so proudly displayed my entire life. It will be raised again but only after this nightmare called trump is gone! Please accept the apology from millions of Americans that stand with you. We are truly sorry and we are suffering with you. God help us. And God Bless Canada ❤

As an American, PLEASE PLEASE know that so many of us are beside ourselves with anger due to what we are seeing. Personally, I feel like I’m living in a bad dream.

As an American, it’s so shameful to witness this take place. Canada, please know many of us vehemently oppose what has happened to our country, but our voices are being strategically stifled. It’s a scary place to be. ?

Don't be fooled by this wimp my American friends. Trudeau is a weasel and has killed Canada. I'm not a fan of Trump but he still has seen thru this bum and we deserve what we're getting because of his neglect and Woke policies for the last 10 years. he's as corrupt as a politician can get. So please wait til we get a leader in Canada that will get us back to a REAL partner with the US. An election is gonna happen real soon that will put a Prime Minister in place that will address the concerns of both of our countries and get things back to normal.....and it won't be Mark Carney!!!!!

As an American, I am so sorry Canada for this mess. Please know a majority of us are suffering and never wanted this nor voted for it. I love you Canada and stand with you.

As an American, this is beyond embarrassing!!! Please know that not every American is like Trump….a majority of us aren’t!

As an American, I stand by my friends. History will judge us poorly. To my Canadian neighbors, please stay strong.

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.

As an American, I stand with Canada and Ukraine. President Zelensky please don't give in to Trump.

Ashamed American- French-Portuguese bisexual woman here.\n\nThank you for being an amazing leader. Please get me the fuck out of here. I'm honestly scared as fuck and trying to get my French Citizenship.\n\nI'm so fuxking angry, every single day. For myself, my friends, my colleagues, and immigrants.

Trump is a travesty! As an American, I am appalled by his tariffs on our allies Canada & Mexico. Please continue to fight against his bombastic ways!! Thinking Americans stand against him!

As an American: can I move to Canada, please? I don't speak French, but I am very fluent in English, and have a good command of Spanish. I'm a good worker.

As an American, I applaud you, Justin Trudeau! If only we had a similar sane, smart, compassionate leader here! So glad that Canada is in your capable hands. If you’re the praying, kind, please pray for us! We are a sinking sinking ship…

As an American, I'm sorry Canada. The US President is a tool. Please do whatever you have to do to protect yourselves.

As an American, I am always feel embarrassed by this current administration both domestic and foreign. I know it’s going to be difficult for most us Americans and to most Canadians as well but, please make sure to give shit administration an ugly lesson which will be difficult to recover in short term.

As an American I personally apologize to my Canadian and Mexican friends. Please know 3/4th of America love you. We’ve just been hijack by racists and haters.

President Trudeau-CAN YOU PLEASE BE THE US NEW PRESIDENT???? I DID NOT VOTE FOR TRUMP AND THINK HE IS AN ID*&T, and we as an American people SIDE WITH YOU!!!

From an American citizen, GIVE TRUMP HELL CANADA!!! Please make new trade partners and new alliances. Cut the US out and off completely. This is going to hurt Americans very badly, as you say. Trump is sick. He is a want to be dictator. He wants to be like Putin, and like Xi Jinping, Kim Jong Un, and Erdogan! This may very well be the end of American as world leader... This may be our very end.

As an American, please raise your tarifs even higher, please boycott American products at all costs.

To all Canadians, as an American, it was so refreshing to see PM Trudeau stand up to the big bully who has some type of bromance with Putin. We feel he has something he’s holding over ?’s head. We also feel our election was rigged by muskrat. We live in a Blue state, Illinois, and we will suffer some things the ? felon we withhold from us. I don’t care. We’d rather be in a blue state no matter what. Please pray for us and all Americans who despise this man. Thank you.

Please do not step down during a time when you are needed so much! American's need your wisdom and resolve. I say this as an American.

As an American, I am sorry. I fully support any action you must take against our current government. Please remember it is less than 30% of our country that is MAGA. Most of us support you. Thank you for such an eloquent and measured address.

My apologies as an American citizen. Please understand half of us do NOT agree AT ALL with this absolute lunatic. I did NOT vote for him, and I'm more disappointed as the days go on.

As an American, I’m disgusted with the regime 31% voted for. More Americans than not are appalled at what Trump is doing to Canada and Mexico! And Ukraine and the EU as well. Please world leaders, continue to stand up to Trump!

I'm an American, and I'm embarrassed by our a-hole president. Please feel free to dump on him as much and often as you wish has so many of us are behind.

As an American, Canada I’m so sorry. To the rest of the world please please hear me. Trump supporters are the minority here, most of us are actively fighting against this. We want peace but in no way shape or form should any government fold to this man. Canada, do what you need to do. Please don’t fold either. Make sure this country feels every second of it.

Sir, with the upmost respect. Could you please not say Americans launched a trade war. I have no say, nor can I control what the idiots in the White House are doing. I am very very sorry for the situation and I am ashamed right now as an American.

Can I please cone to Canada as an American refugee. I swear I wont ask a thing from anyone all I want is to escape this madness in America

As an American, I am ashamed of what the hell is going on. None of it makes a damn sense. Sorry to our Canadians brothers and sisters! Please know, We are not all insane.

Please Prime Minister Trudeau...As an American I am imploring you not to resign Your Country needs you ....But so do we Americans!!!!

I am an American, but my Ancestors were French Canadians who immigrated to Montpelier, Vermont at the turn of the 20th century. Your support in wanting the best for both of our countries makes me so proud of my roots. Charlie Angus as well as Justin Trudeau have integrity and are willing and able to fight for what is right. Please know you are a highly respected nation by most of the people in this country. I have always been so proud of my country, but am now so embarrassed and deeply troubled. Please pray for your neighbors and the democracy of our Republic. I am related to Louis Cyr, Canadian Strongman. Don't give up on us. God be with both of our nations!

Half of the American population has fallen victim to this man and his lies. As an American myself, please know that there is still another half of us out there that stand with Canada (and Ukraine).

As an American expat living in Mexico . I feel so outraged that the sitting US president has decided to destroy our friendship Canada . My feeling of shame has fallen off the chart in being an American under the dictator we seem to be under now . Please forgive us for the actions of the orange Mob Boss .

I'm a New Yorker first and an American citizen second since That Idiot took office. Please, as an American listen to me. AUTOMATOCALLY RAISE YORK PETROLEUM PRODUCTS, OIL, GAS, ELECTRICITY BY 25%. Sell your products at a reasonable rate to the European Union and Asia.

as an american, i’m so scared. please do not abandon us. we are living paycheck to paycheck— and that’s those of us with jobs. we’ve put our heart and souls into voting over the past 9 years and they haven’t counted in decades. \n\ncorporate entities are running our country— politicians are no longer working for the people. we need help.

As an American, Canada do not back down. EU, do not back down. We get what Trump Elon and Vance along with the MAGA Republicans are doing. We apologize for this respectfully. However hard it becomes on us, we know this entire administration is to blame. Please stay strong in democratic diplomacy. Know many Americans support what needs to be done. I support Ukraine

As an American, i want to say sorry. I didnt vote for him and i would never vote for him. Im sorry we both have to deal with this. Im so proud of you all and respect you all for this decision. Please remember us.❤

As an individual Japanese, I cannot stand the current US president and vice president. I demand an impeachment trial. In order to protect America and the American people, these two people who do not call Russia a dictatorship, call Ukraine a dictatorship, and refuse to use Russia's frozen assets should be impeached. They say such things to China, but in reality they are lenient, and it is impossible that they treat Canada and Mexico worse than China. Please. American people, please do not accept dictatorship.

As an American I'd like to say, I didn't vote for this, please don't hate us.. and can I please come live with you guys?? I can't afford a passport cause I'm not a wealthy American, but I'm hard working and I'm polite... Please

As an American, Canada please let my family in! We don't like this crazy dictator. We are retired, and will not take Canadian jobs, we will only spend our money in Canada. Please open retirement visas!

I am so ashamed as an American and as a human being. I am so very sorry for all of this BS. And Americans are all going to be sorry because of what’s happening in Washington right now. We are all going to suffer. Canada, please keep doing everything you can to work with the UK and the EU and all allies to make the world work while the US sinks into a quagmire of squalor, no long the leader of the free world. ???

Good for you Justin. As an American senior, I am afraid for my life. If they take my social security and health care, I will be homeless and die. Please, everyone, fight that bastard in the white house anyway you can.

As an American, please pray for us. Our president is an insane mad man. ?

Trudeau! Thank you for being the representative everyone needs! As an American living in Germany, i support you, as do all my friends! Please dont give up on Americans. Be our voice! ❤ We believe in you!!!

Please yo all in here, I'll ask to stop at use America just to the United States, that's an insult to all other countries in the American continent, use your term as United States or gringos, thank you!

American please wake up\nYou as people and a nation are by all means are the victims of an international plot led by Russia .....\nTrump is not naive nor compromise, he is part of plot to isolate the USA from the world and put under complete chaos

Prime Minister Trudeau is far, far, far above the likes of Donald Trump. As an American citizen I apologize to the rest of the free world for our political and moral failures. Please be patient with us as we work to excise this political cancer from our culture. It may be a long haul but I keep my hopes high.
