You never talk about 200,000 deficit Trudeau, if you want American people understand about you, US has been feeding Canadian forever Trudeau, and you also called trump dumb and In this case to be fair I don't think you are smarter then trump at all

Thank you President Trudeau. We American Citizens agree you are right! This is Trump's fault! We will mend our relationship after Trump leaves office.

Canadians better be careful who they elect after Justin Trudeau leaves They might end up with a Trumplike person governing their country too I pray for the Canadians Americans love you

Trudeau should be our next Prime Minister...!!! ?\nOur economies are so inter-twined because it WORKS! So many American companies have set-up plants in Canada in order to profit from doing business here. It's not just products that we MUTUALLY benefit from selling to each other, the US generates significant profits from its many operations in Canada, and those $Billions of dollars in profits that go back to American Investors is not included in the 'Trade Imbalance' that is a justification for the tariffs. With those profits included, I'd bet Canada is the nation with the imbalance not in its favor...

As a Trump supporter and a Trudeau detractor, it is becoming more obvious to me that this threat of tariffs has become Trumps way of bullying Canadians into becoming the 51st state. I also believe at the same time, Trudeau has finally grown a set of balls because he is on his way out. That being said, my respect for “Donald” is falling off. I have not lost respect for the American people but I have for current American policies…

OMG... THE TRUTH! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau! You ARE the voice of reason, strength, dignity and intelligence! As an American, I am sorry to the lovely people of Canada. I am mostly sorry for myself having to live through this. Keep the peace Mr. Trudeau, and thank YOU!

Americans should choose Trudeau above Trump as their president\n.

That P.C. should’ve resigned\nNobody would have a problem, tariffs just because of him (Trudeau) is the dictator!!!\nLook what he done to his people during the Covid and he want to lecture us Americans. I can live with 25% tariffs.\nI feel bad for Canadians, not their government. There is no democracy.

Thank you President Trudeau for standing up to Tyrant CarrotTop, we Americans stand with you.

Why couldn't we have a POTUS like Trudeau ...I am embarrassed to be an American

Im american citizen, Trudeau, pull the switch, turn the light off, teach Tramp a lesson

BRAVO Trudeau. We true Americans want TRUMP and his gang out of our government!!!

Conservative \nPierre Poilievre \n40.2% \n \nJustin Trudeau \nLiberal \nJustin Trudeau \n30.8% \nShut the fuck up CNN. CNN is the enemy of American people.

Fewer people are vacationing south. Prime Minister Trudeau mentioned Old Orchard Beach as one of those places. A place where my family since early 1900s travelled to. That’s how long just my family has been connected with the US and my American cousins.

As a 60 years old french Canadian I have all the reason to not love Trudeau, because he remind me how his father treated us, never vote for him, but today I saw a men (finally) standing up and take the lead for our country. Yes Canada is still my country and I like the way he directly adress to your president. I have so many American friends on both side( D and R ) and I hope they understand that what he said is not directly apply to United State citizen, wake up America before it s to late.

As an American, I congratulate Prime Minister Trudeau for his bravery and leadership to stand against the spineless GOP.

Another American here, Trudeau absolutely KILLED it! Such a great speech. \n\nI stand with Canada, the EU, and Ukraine. \n\nHopefully this shameful chapter in our country is over soon.

All of you below are smoking something serious… all Trudeau has to do is stop the flow of fentanyl and stop placating dei and failed security policies. \n\nZelenskyy is nothing but a man child running around with his handout…who doesn’t have the man power to fight Russia and will expect American soldiers to defend him. NATO started this war and they should finish it. \n\nStop being a bunch of parrots and do your own research.

As an American that saw the writing on the wall 7 years ago and left, I thank you Mr. Trudeau. You, and Canada are very much respected, and the world listens. Hopefully, decent Americans will overthrow the tyrant that 50% of them voted him in. To say I am ashamed of the USA as it stands is AWAY underwhelming. Much respect from Portugal, and long live Canada.

Lollll ??? Canada is drowning before it even started so Trudeau crying to Americans ???????????

Guys don't trust this clown Trudeau, he himself is a big dictator style person . He allowed all criminals , terrorists, drug cartels to grow exponentially in beautiful country Canada by just turning blind eye . All Americans asked is to stop those criminals but this clown is not willing to . \nCanada needs immediate elections

Bravo Trudeau ?????? As an American, I stand with Canada & Ukraine & against the traitorous, sniveling, corrupt executive branch of our government

Yay Trudeau!!! I am an American but I hope you kick our ass.

Make no mistake, Canada faces an existential threat in Trump. Trump has accomplished the normalization of lies such that he can lie about Canada to justify what he does. And many millions in the USA believe him. just like the victim blaming of Ukraine. Trudeau is right that Trump is intent on weakening us and i would add: along the way creating false pretext for coming in and “saving” us from our tyrannical and dangerous government. validating Russian behaviour where might makes right is part of the process for validating his expansionist goals. He will no doubt claim “nasty” Canadian behaviour like “Canadians are killing Americans by not doing enough on fentanyl” and that Trudeau calling him Donald is “unforgivable”. And all the lies will appeal to his base and justify Annexation. It has come to that

OH JUSTIN YOU ARE SO RIGHT THIS IS VERY PERSONAL YOU MADE FUN OF HIM AND HE IS TAKING REVENGE, BUT PRESIDENT CHUMP OBVIOUSLY CANNOT SEPERATE BUSINESS FROM HIS PERSONAL PROBLEMS, THE WHOLE WORLD DOES NOT LIKE THIS GUY WHEN HIS TERM IN OFFICE IS OVER THE ONLY TWO PLACES THAT HE WOULD BE WELCOME IN IS HIS HOME COUNTRY AND RUSSIA AND I AM NOT SO SURE ABOUT RUSSIA I WROTE ON YOUTUBE BEFORE THAT THIS GUY IS SINKING THE AMERICAN FLEET FAST AND MORE THOROUGHLY THAN THE JAPANESE DID AT PEARL HAROR MAN AT THIS MOMENT THE TWO WORST NATIONALITIES TO BE IS AMERICAN AND RUSSIAN THEY BOTH ARE CAUSING GREAT HARM NOT ONLY TO THE WORLD, BUT MOSTLY TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND COUNTRIES TALK ABOUT SELFISH LEADER'S. PRESIDENT CHUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING WITH THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW IT IS NOT IF WE WILL ENGAGE EACH OTHER IN A WORLD WAR, BUT WHEN THE LEADER'S WE HAVE NOW ARE STEERING THE HUMAN RACE IN THAT DIRECTION AND PRESIDENT CHUMP YOU AND PRESIDENT POUTINE WILL BE CHIEFLY RESPONSIBLE. THE LEADER'S WE HAVE ELECTED TODAY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE MISERY IN THE WORLD TODAY. LEADER'S LIKE PRESIDENT KENNEDY, GHANDI, CHURCHILL ETC. TODAY WE HAVE LEADER'S LIKE TRUDEAU WHO CREATED MISERY AND DIVISION IN CANADA THE FORE MENTIONED LEADER'S ALREADY METIONED ARE DIRECTED BY PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION AND HYPOCRACY. PRESIDENT ZELINSKY I AM AFFRAID LEADER'S LIKE YOU THAT HAVE COURAGE INTEGRITY AND STRENGHT ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN I AM SORRY TO TELL YOU BUT I THINK IN REALTY YOU STAND ALONE NOT MANY LEADER'S TODAY PUT COUNTRY AND COUNTRYMEN AND WOMEN BEFORE THEIR PERSONAL GREED AND AMBITION, BUT IF YOU SUCCEED YOU WILL BE STRONGER AND FAR BETTER OFF GOD BLESS

Say what you want about Donald Trump, at least he’s never seized/frozen American citizens bank accounts for going on strike. Can’t say the same for socialist dictator Trudeau. ?‍♂️

I'm American I stand with Trudeau trump is a idiot

Most Americans share Trudeau’s feelings and concerns.

I THOUGHT HE QUIT????I PRAY CANADACUTS ITS CANCER TRUDEAU OUT,LIKE AMERICANS CANADA HAS CRIMINALS IN GOVERNMENT FROM LONG AGO,ITS A WORLD PROBLEM

Of course trudeau talks a bunch of shit. LIAR!!!! ALL LIES!!! He has never spent a day in toronto where i live and fentynol is taking over! Homelessness everywhere. Drug users taking over playgrounds and transit systems. Ugh i hate him!!! Trump is looking after his country and all trudeau wants to do is point more fingers and make americans hate their own president and spreading lies and propaganda again! Hes a LIAR

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau. The dumbest trade war started by the dumbest American president.

Couldn't be more proud of being Canadian. As an American-born who holds dual citizenship, I am incredibly ashamed of being associated with the USA in any capacity nowadays. Trudeau should go a step further and label Trump the soft fascist authoritarian he seeks to become.

This American stands with Canada. \nHit em back, Trudeau. He is not our king. He needs to go. Show the American people that voted for this Dictator that they made a huge mistake (again). ?

Prime Minister Trudeau, you are wrong about 1 thing. donald trump is not smart. he is a TOTAL dumbass! You were probably trying to compliment him since he only responds well to those who kiss his feet, but don't do it. We Americans know what he is, know this is ALL his doing and think Canada is great!

Tres bien and merci. For ignorant Americans that is very good and thank you in the our other official language. Calling trump's move dumb was purely wonderful. Bravo Trudeau.

200 billion American taxpayer dollars to Canada each year? What for? Have Canadians already forgot Trudeau tyranny during covid when he shut down peaceful protests from truck drivers by stealing their Bank accounts?

I’m so sorry ?. This is a Trump thing. Most Americans don’t want this bullshit either. You watch Mr. Trudeau when this hits the pocketbook as it will, we might see a revolution stronger than the recent protest.

As Trudeau has done for the past 9yrs, he puts Canadians last. Even in his pointless speech to North Americans, we're the last to be addressed. Election.

Well done, PM Trudeau. This American stands by your choice. It was an excellent speech because yes, our government has indeed chosen this economic violence where we, The People, will suffer and the oligarchs will benefit without a care.

God Bless Trudeau! for speaking truth to a brainless, bloated wind bag, hell bent on destroying what is left of democracy. \nYes, true Americans that have not been labotomized by t-rump, will respect and value our true friends in Canada.

Facts Trudeau!! I am ashamed of being an American citizen right now

Trudeau aided european leaders and Zelinsky to undermind an end too an unwinable war and kill Americans and steal more US money.HE IS A TRAITOR TO THE USA !! The GDP of Texas Is 2.4 trillion..The GDP of Canada the freeloader RAT state Is 2.1 trillion..BURN ! like those churches godless liberal socalist filth...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gLN3QoN-q8

Trudeau we agree with you, all this is going too hurt us American citizens.

As an American, YOU make me SICK! You are such a hypocrite who is ACTIVELY destroying his own country! I will make the hard decision to do without/pay more rather than pander to Canada, Mexico, China, etc…. So Mr. Trudeau, don’t “speak” to us about anything! Just go away!

Suffer Canada. You've added tons of tariffs on American products in the past and you're still doing it. Get your leftist act together. And you voted for Trudeau so that speaks for itself. Go cry to the choir.

Thank You President Trudeau! Many millions of Americans support you and Canada. Our Fat Orange President and JT Vance are in Putin's Pocket. Wake Up America!

The world witnessed the embodiment of evil in the Oval Office. \n\nIn Prime Minister Trudeau the world witnessed exemplary leadership and integrity. \n\nAs an American it pains me to say that I am ashamed of our nation’s leaders.

Please PM Trudeau, it's not the United States who wants to Trade War, It's Trump and his incompetency. Trump is not thinking about the wellbeing of the Americans......

Can't make our case any better than that Justin Trudeau! Well done! Trump and his minions are ruining America's status as being the leader of the free world. Most American citizens want their country back to the way it was ... leader of the free world. Donald Trump has to be stopped!

Trudeau is speaking and acting like the statesman he is! His way of speaking on this matter is truly polite and great. He is defending his country and its values! Hopefully there's many more leaders of other countries that will step up and take action against the person that ignorant americans voted into the White House! This will soon blow up in the face of the goverment in the US. Hopefully the blow is tough and hard!
