❤❤❤ I tried to like all the comments from our wonderful USA neighbors and supporters from around the world ? Canadians love you too !!!! Sorry we have too protect our sovereignty ❤❤❤ I am proud of my Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ? ❤ speech

I never was a fan of Trudeau but Im starting to like him more and more

I never liked Trudeau at all but this is the only time I actually think he is right.

Trudeau sounds like a real leader. Articulate and clear. Contrast that with Trump's imbecilic drivel, his completely inept cabinet and his crazy pro russian agenda!

Love Trudeau's transparency and integrity...unfortunately, the US does not have a leader like this...

The Hermit Kingdom of America. Trump is making Trudeau sound like a reasonable person. Unbelievable!

I guess USA citizens and Trudeau simply aren't getting it, Trump wants these tariffs because he WANTS to tax the heck out of the ordinary US citizen in order to pay for his tax cuts for his Billionaire friends.....Canada could have COMPLETELY stopped Fentanyl trafficking and Trump STILL would have invoked tariffs.....just like no matter what Zelenskyy could do, he was determined to make an EXCUSE to stop supporting Ukraine's war efforts.......in addition, if you didn't know better, it appears that Trump wants to team up with Russia......??????

Wow, some do t like Trudeau but that’s a leader. Has 100% the back of canada. It’s about canada not anything else. Trump worries about nothing but trump. That’s the difference between us and the greedy USA. Oh, you have picked a fight with the wrong people……trust me on that. We are a country that stands together. We haven’t divided our country like trump has, we stand together.

I appreciate Prime Minister Trudeau! And I have much respect for Canada! ?? ? \nI’d like to see us recover relations with our allies and strengthen communication so we all can work together toward peaceful resolutions. This will help trade as well as climate concerns. \nIt Certainly Can Be Done! We must bring the best communicators to the table. \n(And begin with prayer because all peace begins with God!) ??️?

Thank God there is someone like trudeau on the north American continent. Also he is young and smart. And has a backbone.

Trudeau he leaving in like 17 days . He's doing nothing but making noise.

Trudeau was, before Trump's second term, deeply unpopular and on his way out.\n\nOnly a numptie like Trump can make Canada's most unpopular PM in decades popular again.

Well said Trudeau! You are a brave man stands against the dictator, Donald duck Trump. We American need a true leader like you!

I like Trudeau more now! Let’s stop trump

tRump is a liar, greedy, and corrupt idiot. I am considering moving to Canada from South Dakota. I am embarrassed to be a citizen of the USA. I feel like tRUMP and is wife are Russian assets. I have deep respect for Trudeau and his Dad.

Not for the trade war but never going to forget that Trudeau acting like he cares about Americans is a laugh when he stood against us and in defense of forced jab, even seizing people's funds backing truckers

Donald Trump made Trudeau a man. Finally he talks like a man not a woke who insisted to say people kind instead of mankind.

That is a chilling title and amazing speech from Trudeau. Like if you don’t trust Trump.

Can we trade Trudeau? Seems like we'd all be better off.

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

Trudeau is as corrupt as they come. He pretends to stand up for Canada, but as soon as the fight starts he will run and hide just like the coward he is. He isn't doing anything to make this country better. He knows his days are limited. It's all fake, he is fake.

Seen from overseas in Europa I can only say that Trudeau's speech is excellent. Canadians can be vrey proud to have a Prime Minister like him. Trump on the other hand is like a kid playing with matches. US americans are not the problem Trump is the problem.

The only dictator here is Trudeau. His own people don't even like him. He's a tyrant he needs to be removed.??

I live in Maine on the border with Canada and im absolutely ashamed at what trump is doing. Canada is an incredible country and a great ally to the US, and this entire thing that trump is doing is reprehensible. It would be an improvement to have a leader like Trudeau who can actually get a point across.

Trudeau is not gonna be PM for much longer, but hearing a speech like this makes me glad that he’s at least handled this situation with stern grace

Isn't Trudeau the same guy who invited a real Ukrainian Nazi WW 2 veteran in his nation? Um yeah. Isn't Trudeau the same guy who wore black face in college? Yes he did it \n Isn't Trudeau the same fascist who stole working class Canadians during COVID bullshit? Yes \n Ok keep it real, Trump's a duchebag like Biden and as a independent voter in America I'm just saying we get the shit sandwich lemmings in both nations voted for or were the only options allowed

America now has an illiterate, severerly nearsighted, reactionary, child- like buffoon as President. Apologies to Canada, I wish we had a President like Trudeau.

Quit acting like this is a guy who Canadians actually like. Trudeau is massively unpopular and will be gone very soon, when the new Prime Minister of Canada is put in place there will be a deal. Canada has run wild for far too long getting the best of us in every way now that it is fair they act as if they have been doing us favors all along when it has been the other way around.

The clown prime minister trudeau sounds like zelensky with his fear mongering feel fear americans. Canada has maid, america under trump is pro life. I fear maid in ??healthcare most.

As an American, I really liked Trudeau's speech. I thought he did a great job explaining everything and responding to this situation. I appreciate his words to the American people. There's just one thing he said that was inaccurate... trump is NOT a smart guy!!

Trudeau, and Canada, can get it too. Canada exists at our want. Polite, limp wristed, weak manipulationg and dishonest politicians like Trudeau are about to get their come uppance. Friend? You are a liening pathetic operative for Globalist. LOOK AT YOUR OWN ECONOMY. LETS GO TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As an American, this is what a true leader sounds like. Much respect to Trudeau and Canadians

Canadians don’t like Trudeau

Trudeau wrote this like he studied Kendrick Lamars game plan lol i wouldn't wanna upset him DONALD. Its not gonna end well for you. Ask Drake.

Well Trudeau it seems to me that you feel like pain we are feeling in Haiti even though it is not nearly the same. You sent your ship and helicopter in Haiti on feels pretences that you are going to tackle the gangs theories there; then you played with our emotions ; when you knew full well you were not going to do a danm things. I can tell though we used to hard life. We have been living it since the day the island of Haiti declared her independence.

I AM ?? CANADIAN. How mad are we? Furious and overtly patriotic. I will do everything within my limited economic (non-billionaire), physical and social power to protect Canada against american aggression. You have threatened our democratically elected government, natural resources, economy and personal freedom. By electing “that person” as your leader and aligning with authoritarian dictatorships like Russia, you have threatened not only Canada and Ukraine but world peace. You have threatened your own economic and personal freedom. Prime Minister Trudeau spoke succinctly in a comprehensible way to let you, the american people, know the seriousness of your choice. If you understand what you have done and realize the implications, then peacefully protest (if that is still allowed with your evolving fascist/populist/authoritarian government). Contact your local, state/territorial and federal government officials. You can let your governors, senators and representatives know that you do not agree with the government’s actions and the subsequent hardship it will impose not only on the world but on you, your family and neighbours. Make change happen in a peaceful, non violent manner, while you still can. We didn’t ask for nor want this absurdly unnecessary confrontation but when attacked, we will fight our old friends and historic allies. Elbows up Canada!

Trudeau is a left-wing woker nutcase just like the EU

Leaders like Trudeau are in touch with reality.

???… Trudeau is a joke, I’ll pay the inflation price to teach people like him a lesson. Fair is fair, and with him in power Canada is not our ally!!!

....last 5 years (since plandemic) started is turbulent, interesting to watch all that, in Corona time i couldn't stand Trudeau and much appreciated Trump, now it's kinda opposite....??....well all that sounds pretty democracy right?....kinda like it....

trump hates him because his wife has the hots for Trudeau, Baron looks a lot like him

Trudeau is a puppet just like Zelensky

I was questioning PM Trudeau for his foreign relationships and dealing with Khalistan separatists and straining Canada's relationship with India. But this speech changed that perception. I like how he addresses the very issue. Crystal clear and a very matured leader I would now change my position about him. This trade war will really hurt both sides. It may help govt as businesses will pay more on sales taxes. But it will ultimately hurt the consumers, especially middle and low income folks on both sides of the border a big way. There are so many problems to solve in USA and he focused on this.

Trudeau is a puppet just like Zelensky

Now this is what an intelligent president look and sound like. Mr. Trudeau may I please be granted residency in Canada until this mess is over? Please and thank you.

It is jarring seeing Trump speak, in comparison to Trudeau. You are reminded that this is how a national leader should sound like

Ur own ppl don’t like you Trudeau!!!

As a canadian, even though we don't like trump, im pretty sure we hate trudeau more, no mater what he says hes still a moron.

'Credibility on the line' What credibility, you have none America - zero\n\nI have to say Trudeau is an excellent speaker, even a dumb wit like trump would have understood what was being said!\n\n\nI wonder how many Americans will be running to the Canadian boarder seeking asylum?!!

Isn't Trudeau getting forced to resign? Why is he acting like he'll continue to be in power?
