The world respects Canada and this Scot is disgusted with Mr Trump's antics.

I used to think that the idea that Trump is a Russian asset was just a conspiracy theory. I am not sure of that now as how else to you explain why Trump is doing everything he can to undermine the USA? Why else would you cause a breech between the US and our allies Canada and Mexico? Why else would he destroy the infrastructure of our country through Musk and Doge? Why else would you stop all aid to Ukraine? Why would you stop cyber operations targeting Russia? Why would he set up an operation to humiliate the leader of an allied country fighting for its life against Russian aggression? Why would you send your vice president to Germany and have him insult our allies and not meet with the leadership of the country but rather meet with the essentially neo-Nazi Alternative for Germany? None of this--and many other actions--makes sense unless you begin to understand that Trump is actively trying to weaken our country to the benefit of the Russians. I know it is hard to believe but I can find no other explanation.

I am American.\nI am on the side of Canada.\nYes, because of trump, we are screwed.

I'm so jealous of Canada rn. They have a competent leader. This is insane that tRump keeps attacking our ALLIES AND SIDING WITH FCKIN RUSSIA AND NORTH KOREA!! I'm disgusted at the people who voted for this bafoon and our government and the Republicans who won't find a damn backbone and save our country from this evil pos. I can't be mad at Trudeau or Canada, were fully in the wrong. & The way he's placating trump at the end is hilarious cause he knows being fully honest will make trump the pentulent toddler have a big tantrum. Someone help us. Y'all just couldn't let Kamala win. We would be in much better hands. Y'all suck. As an American I absolutely stand w Canada! Trump is wrong!!!

So is Canada the new land of the free and home of the brave?\n\nIdiocracy + Perestroika = 47

Trudeau is a very clear communicator. Australia is with you Canada. We're next.

We love Canada

Any American rooting for Canada right now gfy you are traitors

Canada is on track to become the next world superpower, so long as Trump doesn't hand the keys to the kingdom to Putin first. The American people do not want this. I pray the people can take back their country before we collapse.

This are Trumps policy that I didn’t vote for shame on Trump I’m with u Canada fight back 1000% times

After hearing his speech-I’d rather go live in Canada- he gave it to everyone straight up and came with respect and honesty like a representative should-trump should’ve took notes.

I'm an American citizen. trump is not my president . He is a orange boy looking for red dog comminst love. china russian or north korea. Sorry Canada ?? trump musk sucks comminst ass.... I love Canada ??. Thank you for your time and videos.

prime minister justin trudeau is handsome i stand with canada Iam a american

Guess who is happy US, Canada trade war, Russia But US doesn’t know that Putin is nobody’s friend. He will stab US in its back wait and watch.\nCanada will stand strong, united always ❤??

True American patriots are currently standing with Canada and Mexico, basically the rest of the planet. MAGA gotta go.

CNN espionage is a major threat to America. Stop buying anything from Canada. We need more jobs in America!

tRump gave the Prime Minister the best gift ever, a war that Canada didn't start but rallies the whole country together against an antagonistic bully. Trudeau will get a 20 point bump in his approval ratings and go out a winner.

I've always loved Canada. Stand firm.

Wonderfully calm speech. One can listen to Trudeau. All the very best to Canada

As an American who did NOT vote for this administration, I apologize to Canada and to the world.

Canada❤ join the EU❤

Dear Canada: please know that this orange buffoon does NOT speak for the vast majority of Americans that value truth, integrity and other humans. He shows every day that he cares only about his ego, his personal wealth and his billionaire buddies. Taking the side of dictators is his stock in trade, as we’ve seen numerous times. God help us until we’re rid of Trump and his idiot sycophants!

Can I move to Canada?

Canada should first implement trudeau. New person should be elected. Then that person should visit the oval office with trump in, then trump must say to that guest you don't have the cards to play, with us only you have the cards ?

Usa is not obligated to buy from Canada. Stop whining and crying. Fix your country.

Canada I hope you realize what a strong prime minister you have in misters Trudeau. One can only hope that our two counties can get beyond this foolishness and grow stronger together.

Nobody needs Canada ?

This is Trump's attempt at a hostile takeover of Canada as if it can be done the same as venture capitalism.

WE STAND UNITED ... CONSERVATIVE AND LIBERAL...WE ARE ONE TODAY! STAND STRONG CANADA!

?? Trudeau didn't even bring up the part where Donny keeps threatening to annex Canada.\nAs a Canadian....ya...we are pissed at the irresponsible and bullying tactics of Putin's lap dog.\nWhen America gets it's ethics back and respect for rule of law and turns its back on authoritarianism...\nMaybe then we can resume our profitable relationship...but not before.

It’s not about fentanyl at all. Donald Trump is just using that as an excuse. He is lying to the American people like he always does. Don’t back down Canada ?? do your worst!! Trump voters need to feel the pain to realize what they have voted for. I’m embarrassed and disgusted with America right now and who we are becoming. Be proud of your nation and your leadership Canada!! America isn’t and can’t be as long as DT is in office.

Im american god bless canada.

American here, trust me, we don't want this either. This administration has done nothing but harm to us. I'll always consider you a friend, Canada.

He can posture and act tough all he wants but Canada will suffer much more than the United States. If you want fairness then make it an equal playing ground between countries. The majority of Americans, not like most of the liberals commenting here support Donald Trump

My deepest and sincerest respect for Trudeau and Canada.?? will go out and buy all the possible maple syrup tomorrow. Keep strong and sending you strength from the Netherlands.

From Belgium, Canada, Europeans are happy to have you. Much love

Canada is speaking truth. Trump is an idiot aligning with Russia.

I am appalled by the american journalists. The way they both were talking about it is implying that Canada (e.g. we, as I am Canadian) are starting war against them. Justin said it as it is - the war was started by USA. But apparently, if Ukraine could be the aggressor ?(repeated many times over now by the American propagandists), so are we.

President Trump should not rule out nuclear options to respond to this nonsense. Lets see what Canada can do then.

Through Canada to USA comes tons of drug's, look at Vancouver and Toronto, USA not only gets goods from Canada we get illegal immigrants and drug's. Canada has dirty oil, that USA has to refine to use. Shame both countries can't work together and be strong. Ukraine Zelensky just wants money, don't care about his people, and will cause WWW111 if countries keep giving to him.

Canada ...I'm so sorry. Please know that Trump does not represent the US citizens. It was a crazy moment that got out of control, and now the country is his hostage. Please help us.

As an American, I stand with Canada. Most of us love Canada, and tons of Americans did not want this. Still, too many did because they don’t understand what they’re doing.

Congratulations Canada!!! Trudeau stood on business!! Don't back down!!

This looming tariff squabble between these once-chummy nations needs to hit the discussion table, stat! So, let’s roll out a grand convoy led by Canada’s finest, Terrance and Phillip, to face off with a U.S. special delegation spearheaded by the legendary Eric Cartman. We propose this showdown happens near Niagara Falls, where the mist can douse the heated trade tensions. Canada better 'respect his authoritah,' or the U.S. might just demand a full refund—starting with trade of Mike Myers for Michael Myers!!

The US has literally painted itself in a corner. I hope Canada is close to a deal with the EU. Europe is more trustable than America.

. .... man.. i dont like Trudeau. Or what hes done to Canada. But..dammit .. That was good.

Respect to Canada. Marvellous country. You have inherited the best legacy of Europe.

Does the US EXPORT or IMPORT more fentanyl to Canada?

I have voted for Trump 3 times. Canada has over charged the USA through tariffs for years. I know you will miss the money but just suck it up like we have had to do. Pres Trump is for the American ppl and all his decisions are directed that way. For the ppl from our country that have commented on this statement and love Canada move there, right away.

It's ok we're rich, and Canada ?? will be the 51st State of the United States ??
