Its so sad?? God help us a mad man is hurting all of the World pray everyone pray hard for Gods intervention....we love Canadian neighbors ...true Christians never act lime this never?????

This is just sad!

He thinks we want it. He’s wrong. I don’t I’m sorry it’s happening. I’m sad I’m an American. As a Christian I will be praying earnestly and to Canada- I Am personally sorry for stupid people ?

I live in Nashville, TN USA. I am so sorry Canada is suffering due to Trump. I do not support this move on Trump's part. I never voted for him. I have known for many years he is a dangerous narcissist. Canada is our friend. You have come to our aide in times of trouble. Our forest fires, 911 when the planes hit our twin towers. Trump wants a 4.5 Trillion dollar tax cuts for the wealthy. He sees tariffs as a way to make up some of that money alone with huge budget cuts to many of our programs. Trump is an unreasonable person who only thinks about himself. I hope he will eventually be impeached. I do not blame Canada. I blame Donald Trump and the the Republican Congress. This is a coupe going down in our country and it is sad to watch. Take good care.

It's sad when we're no longer the grownups in the room?

Canadian here(Quebec) I feel sad for all the Whiskey industries in Kentucky, those workers didn't deserved the counter-effects of the tarifs. Everything can be done with respect & diplomacy, but it's not the road President Trump took. Fellow Americans, I am very sorry about that, rest assured that us here, we make the difference between your President & all of you.

As an American, my heart breaks for my country. It is so sad that our friendship has been damaged.

This is a attack on American people not just them sad

So sad

America is in a sad state of crisis. That guy Trump has been in bed with Russia since the 80s. He’s been bought and sold from the beginning. \nTheir goal is to bankrupt America and allow Russia to move in and take over the world from here. They plan to separate and divide the American people with race wars and financial instability. We as Americans must stand together to fight against the oligarchs. \nThe racist Trump supporters do understand once they achieve their goal. You will be the new “N-word “ in the situation. \n\n#freeamerica

Is kind of sad American should be lead by the smartest person in this planet

I am a american, and I'm so sad what our government doing, with the world

Except for polievre who took this sad occasion to promote himself. Very much how Canadians should not behave at this moment

It is so sad that so many will have to suffer because of one delusional man.

I'm Brazilian, and it legit makes me so sad to see the Canadians being left this way by Trump... it's just a dumb situation, it's a selfish move made by him, and that sure affects Canada a lot, and that's why my family and I stopped buying American products. Stay safe and strong, canucks.\n❤

This is what a real leader looks like. From and American who is sad our elected (and not elected...) officials slip further into fascism. Love my Canadian brothers and sisters.

I wish i could move to Canada??? sorry neighnors..i am American and I am in shock..also sad.

This is what a leader, a real leader…intelligent and savvy…looks like. When Trump looks into the mirror, this is not what is reflected back. The reflection looks like a four year old child, crying because Daddy doesn’t love him. It’s sad but we will be paying dearly for a child’s temper tantrum and very disturbing behaviors. Wake up United States, Congress, Republicans and Democrats, the entire News Media, and uninformed voters. This country, our country is at risk of going the way of all fallen dynasties…into oblivion. God help us all. Sorry dear Canada, so sorry.

It’s hard to truly put into words how hard it is to be an American right now who doesn’t agree with our government’s actions. I’m honestly just so sad.

Trump will be gone - perhaps in 2 years he will lose the house/senate...and then what America? You've lost a loyal friend. It will take YEARS to rebuild our trust. Who will come to your aid the next 911? And it WILL happen; u are despised worldwide. It's a sad day. But as a Canadian, I love my country and will boycott EVERYTHING American to the best of my ability. Enjoy the hell to come America.

Crazy to see how relations have broken down between our two countries and sad for all my great American friends and thanks for your support but anyone with half a mind could see this coming. So many Americans, even republican voters, now waking up to the cold reality of a treasonous, mad president allied to a Russian mad man, isolating the US from the rest of the world. He was basically elected to repaire the economy. Ha! Nice going you orange freak. The stock market is crashing like a Trump casino. You bankrupt two casinos and now you are doing the same to America. Oh! and I hope you're listening to Trudeau's speech, this is what a real leader sounds like. CANADA STRONG AND FREE!!!

Trump is trash and he wants to be a dictator so bad is sad

This is bad for Americans. Very sad.

4 years of Trump, Puttin's friend. Sooo Sad. Wanting it as a 51 state So crazy.

General Clark, thank you for talking about what republicans choose to ignore, putin IS playing Donald. So sad.

A powerful speech. Very sad, but it is necessary against an egocentric us president who supports the aggressive dictator putin. Greetings from Berlin.

so sad that those Trump supporters still believe what he did is good which does not make sense

It seems like Trump is trying to suffocate Canada economically and forcing them to be the 51st state this is the only reason I feel like he would do this.... truly sad for the Canadian people sorry that my country is doing this to you

It’s a sad sad day.

It is sad seeing two people set up America in flames. We may not have any allies left at the end of Trump's 4 years. Any American who is not appalled by Trump's actions must be out of their mind. Let us put our political differences behind us and fight against this nonsense in the Oval Office.

You are correct, Donald has done this to Americans. sad.

The president here is Putin now. So sad how our country are being destroyed by this clown

America has got a president, the likes of which have never been seen before. And that is NOT meant to be a compliment. This is NOT what any sane American could possibly want. Frankly, the pride I've always felt for my country is slipping away. All I can do is pray we avoid a war for the next 4 years and are able to repair broken relations with every country we piss off. That's just sad

It's so sad Canadians aren't told the true facts.....\n I urge you not to take everything he says. For truth and do some searching yourself before you make a statement against the USA and Donald Trump....

As someone in the UK and a European its very sad and heart breaking that this is happening, can Americans see what is going on? The New World and the Old World is falling apart.

Sad American citizen here that didn’t vote for Donald. I wish we had strength like that representing our country. I’m with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine

Sad thing is that the whole world, including the USA, knows Trump is a Traitor. Working against USA as hard as he can.

We hear you. It is so sad that the bullies in the White House will ignore you. ❤

Trudeau, respect for your attitude. Sad for the Americans who will fill, and only economically, that in this world are also people who care about other people and respect each other. Let’s unite together and fight the dictatorship from USA at this moment.

This is sad....Trump \ndoes not care about\nthe American people.\nTrudeau seems more\nempathetic toward \nthe American people\nthan Trump....?

I’m a U.S. American and I’m so horrified, ashamed, and sad about what trump’s administration is doing. I find no fault in you doing what is right and necessary for your country. I just wish we a government that wanted what is best for us.

Sad to see a statesman like Trudeau having to appease a spoilt narcissistic thug - but overall a great response by Canada

I think the whole Eu stand behind u Canada, and let's make a bigger trade and let Usa stand by itself. And it's a sad day for the people of US. Because soon Usa will be alone because no one can trust that country leadership anymore.

I am sad to see Trudeau go ..who we gonna get now? Its not that great!

It makes me so sad that our Canadian friends have to explain their loyalty and friendship to us… their American neighbors. We don’t want this. Only Trump does. ?

whats up with the emotional back music comming on trying to make us sad lol

Canada...\nI am so, so sorry. I am humiliated, horrified, appalled, embarrassed, furious, and so so sad. Please know it isn't all of us. I am a Detroiter who has spent half her life in Ontario and Quebec. I will continue to buy Canadian products and will spend as much of my American money in Canada as I possibly can. I support Canada and encourage you to do whatever it is you need to do. I love you, Canada!

French guy here. My heart goes to Canada in these sad hours. Soutien aux canadiens contre cette folie furieuse.

It's amazing. The UK has a functioning government. Canada has a functioning government. Ukraine certainly has a functioning government. Due to Republican hate and specifically due to TRUMPO the Giggling Death Clown's being a malignant narcissistic sociopath, a true insane TRAITOR, the US is being dragged into an uncivilized Fascist world of ELONAZI and Felonious Trump's making. Sick Sad World.

This is a very sad day. Justin Trudeau you are and always be a class act and a very strong and great leader. Thanks you for your unwavering support for all of Canada.
