I stand with my president Donald Trump. As a Mexican American I agree with him. We need to keep our enemy closer (Russia) or crap like Ukraine war will happen like it did with Biden. Trust the president he will eventually bring Putin to his knees and then Russia won't be a threat to anyone anymore

Us real americans stand with Canada, but sadly most of us are so poor, and only gonna get worse. we need a luigi to step up and mario bros the potus

People need to understand that the damage and fallout that will certainly come from all of the things that Donald Trump is doing is intentional. \nTrump's efforts to weaken NATO, destroying our relationships with our long-standing Western European allies, creating friction and distrust with our border countries of Canada and Mexico, taking a wrecking ball to all of our governmental institutions that hold this country together, sowing a lot of hatred and distrust among American citizens along racial and ethnic lines, using tariffs to destroy the American economy, efforts to cause Americans to lose trust in our courts, justice and Healthcare systems, trying to Villianize Zelensky of Ukraine while praising the dictator from Russia, is all part of a plan to weaken or maybe even destroy our country and to allow Russia to rise.\nIt is painfully obvious that Donald Trump is an agent for Vladimir Putin and Russia against the United States, Ukraine and the democracies of Europe. \nDonald Trump is a traitor! The Republicans in Congress need to do their jobs and remove him from office ASAP!

God help the Americans. You all will NEED it. Trump trying to play a country like a company is shameful. Countries are countries. Not this bullshit. Canada will stand hell or high water.

All of these comments from Americans, saying you stand with Canada. Trump is just doing the same thing Canada has done to us. You people need to research the tariffs Canada has implemented in the past. Trump isn't going to let Canada and Ukraine use America anymore.

As an American, I stand with Canada, Mexico, and the Ukraine. Donald is a wanna-be dictator and needs to be impeached immediately.

I come from a long line of Canadian’s, I’m not a fan of Trudeau but I have to say he made me proud today standing up to the school yard bully. I know most Americans don’t support what Trump is doing because as Canadian and Americans we are decent hard working people who don’t need a government that doesn’t speak for the people God bless us all the world needs to find a way for peace our children and grandchildren deserve better.

I'm reading through the comments and one thing is very clear. We need to impeach Donald. He's not serving the interests of Americans but rather treacherous dictators like Putin, by hurting long standing and mutually beneficial relationships with our best and closest allies.

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

As an American, I respect Canada as a friend and neighbor. I stand with Canada and not the crybaby in the white house. Trump and his administration needs to be removed from office immediately. Trump voters are about to be in the find out phase.... Do you think they will storm the White House again? Something has to change... How can no one stand up to Trump...

Good for you Canada. T this American stands with you and what you need to do for the betterment of your people, unlike what our so called President is doing.

Good for you Canada. T this American stands with you and what you need to do for the betterment of your people, unlike what our so called President is doing.

I am American and I stand with America. We do not need Canada or Ukraine lecturing us on politics fueled by globalist elitists. What a joke.

I am an American, please stand together. Our country is not and I am sure it shows. We here in the states need to gain control of our Rogue Government and it will not be easy. Many of our citizens have been removed from the voting roles and many politicians have been bribed or threaten into submission. We have a hard road ahead to gain back our country ... please remember, most Americans understand and would not choose to harm any of our friends and neighbors.

Americans need to stand up to the Russian Asset.

American here. We don’t need anyone let me be clear Canada relies more on us than we do them. I STAND WITH TRUMP.

As an American I support Canada's stance. They are standing up to a bully and we need more brave leaders to do the same.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau!❤ American citizens need the strength of foreign leaders to stand up to these bullies. I’ve done what I can and I’m tired. God Bless You! From Virginia.

OMG ALL americans need to TRY to stand up to the moron they have destroying their country and driving the middle class into extinction!!

Europe must stand strong and independent! The U.S. can’t dictate global trade while waging economic warfare. It’s time for Europe to impose high tariffs on American goods and services—no more one-sided deals! We don’t need Silicon Valley giants like Apple, Google, or Tesla to thrive. If Trump escalates, it will backfire on the U.S. Let’s unite with Canada, China, and Mexico to push back. Europe, step up and go all in! ????

Let's make this crystal clear. Donald Trump has declared a trade war with Canada not America. The Trump Tariffs and the Trump Alienation of our allies is a betrayal of America and it's citizens. The vast majority of Americans are against these actions and stand with our allies. Free nations do what needs to be done but please do not cast blame on those Americans who reject this administration wholeheartedly. The Trump administration DOES NOT represent America they are BETRAYERS!

To the Americans who are outraged by Trump, you need to stand up and truly fight like the MAGAts did when they stormed the capital on Jan 6th. If you really have a problem with whats going on you need to take a stand and make a difference. If you just sit back then you are allowing it to go on. Sorry if thats unfair to say but we're living in a time where your Leader is going to only get worse and worse and start a World War if he isnt stopped and held accountable. This level of Terrorism against Canada, Greenland, Palestine, Ukraine, Mexico, Japan and China CANNOT go unpunished. Throughout history if this happened 20+ years ago this would have NEVER happened because people would stand up against oppressors and dictators. Its time to do just that.

It’s most of the world, and sensible Americans who employ common sense and logic vs tRump and his neofascist agenda. In professional wrestling terms, the U.S. has turned “heel,” but the now occupant of the White House, who should’ve never returned, always has been one. I don’t understand his appeal, and why so many Americans have been sucked into his orbit.\nI don’t want this, many tRump voters don’t want this. This’ll adversely affect the world, and will do nothing to reduce the nearly $2 trillion deficit. tRump’s tax cuts for the wealthy, and fElon Musk’s austerity measures will, and already are raising unemployment, and will further increase the divide between the wealthiest and most marginalized among us.\nThe U.S. siding with Russia, the two countries having the biggest nuclear stockpiles, is a threat to the world.\nIf WW3 starts, it won’t be because Zelenskyy won’t act to end a war in which his country was unnecessarily invaded, it’ll be because of Russia’s invasion of it, and the U.S. turning its back on its now former allies.\nThose of us in the states who oppose tRump and his alliance with Putin need to continue to stand up, speak out, and perhaps even do more. We’ve never seen anything like this before. Hate to say it, but this could very well be the beginning of the end of what was once a great nation. I’ll end this with a quote from FDR.\n“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.”

? Californian here. Thank you, PM Trudeau, for your leadership and for speaking with respect and clear intentions to rebut what you were forced into. Listening to you speak makes things feel a little less scary. To hear another world leader speak with such normality, is reassuring that democracy still exists. The last decade has been hell on Americans. Some of us have been standing up, speaking up and never giving up for a decade now. Wee are tired but we can't stop. Thank you for being a sane voice during this insane nightmare. And thank you for embracing President Zelenskyy. He needed that multileader summit embrace after what Trump did to him ?????

As an American, I stand with Canada. I am worried, but someone needs to stand up to Trump. I am sorry that it is not the US. So many people still support him and I just don’t understand it.

I live in the Uk and I still find it difficult to believe these republican senators are going to stand by and let Donald Trump ruin the America economy. And it’s sick that some of these stupid country booky Americans are siding with him. Just sick. The Democratic Party needs to stand up and be counted.

I loved the speech of PM Trudeau- but one thing he kept saying is wrong. Our government did not do this - One man did this via executive orders. He does not care who he hurts. He does not care about the American people. Trump only cares about himself and his relationship with Mother Russia and Putin. TRUMP doesn't want peace. He is thriving on the chaos that he and Musk are initiating. Trump needs to be impeached immediately but our Congresmaen and women, who are supposed to represent their populations are too scared to do anything other than what Trump tells them to do. Our Government is supported to have a Check and Balance function, but none of the branches have the guts to stand up to TRump. I really believe that Trump's American first policy is to end up as America ALONE.

The American people need to stand up and do something with this President.

Please, us Americans need to stand up and stop Trump.

This is ridiculous Trump is turning the United States into a communist regime Americans need to stand with our allies we need them to be strong we do not need to be aligned with Russia !! Americans need Stand up against what Trump is doing

Bravo!?????? I am an American and I stand with Canada. Leaders from other countries around the world should be as strong as your leader Trudeau! This message could not be more clear or direct. And I’m glad Trudeau didn’t call him with president in front of his name. trump doesn’t deserve it. He is a disgrace to America and exactly what America is not about. No one knows how he could get here But it’s a nightmare that we are trying to wake up from. Trump has spread cancer in America and we are fighting for our lives. We are deeply sorry for all the pain we are causing people around the world. This is our fight and we unfortunately are making it everyone’s problem. We need help, so thank you for everything you are doing.

As an American I stand Behind Donald Trump 100% it is time we build our economy and stop letting other countries get rich off of the United States. Its time for Canada and other countries to pay up.\nDonald Trump handed Zelensky just how he should have. I back Donald Trump 100%\nCanada needs America we don’t need Canada. \nA Large percent of Canada population live on the border of the United States that should say a lot. \nCanada y’all stay in your country and we will stay in ours easy as that

As an American I say do what you need to do. I stand with Canada. I'm so sorry this is happening ?

I am an American but I stand with Canada. The Trump administration is destroying our country. We the people need to take our country back.

This Mexican American stands with our President TRUMP! USA…USA….\nWe don’t need Canada, CNN is also FAKE NEWS!?

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau. Unfortunately Donald Trump will destroy the US. Canada will grow stronger without US. It is regrettable that the current Trump administration is destroying the strong relationships between US with Mexico, Canada, Europe, UK, China, Middle East and Africa. Canada will always stand for democracy, freedom and justice even if this current administration refuses to do so. US and Canada has fought WWI, WWII, Korean war, Vietnam war, Iraq war, Afghanistan war together. As brothers in arms both have fought, bleed together against fascism. What Donald is doing in the US is as close as it gets to fascism in America. During this difficult time in American history more than ever America needs to trust in God. God bless America land of the free home of the brave. Let's pray that God will intervene through prayer to bring America to depend on Him once more.

A American Marine Corp Veteran stands with you Canada. Stay strong. What Maga doesn't realize is there are many 3rd party voters who are going to start working on doing the things that need to be done to throw the road blocks because he has definitely started down the road road to dictatorship.

That is how a leader speaks!! He was succinct, armed with actual facts, eloquent and effective…all that and he didn’t need to sell a stupid hat or crypto coin. It’s so embarrassing to be an American right now. We stand with Canada!??

We need a leader as intelligent and capable as Justin Trudeau. Canada, standing their ground may be our best chance to impeach the disgusting dictator in our country. Canada? Are you ready to accept any Democracy loving Americans who want to escape fascism? We would love to be Canadians!??

American here and Trudeau earned my respect for this. Standing with Canada on this but we Americans need to fight back too!

Yes, do what you need to do. Many Americans (including myself) stand with Canada. ? Donald Trump is a fool and is incompetent.

Many peeps talk badly about Trudeau but this speech was what we needed. Canadiens stand strong with our fellow Americans neighbours. We share your pain and we will fight together through this.

As an American, I am sorry for this DISGUSTING behavior. WE STAND WITH CANADA!!!!!!\nAmerica doesn't \nwant a relationship Russia..... what does Putin have on DONNY DO LITTLE. TRUMPY DO needs to be STOPPED he is fucking our country.\nRepublicans this is all on you, grow a spine!!!!!

Donald Trump started a trade war with other countries and we the people have nothing to do with it. Donald Trump needs to be removed with the 25th Amendment immediately. Americans will not condone Donald Trump or Russia. We do not stand with them, we stand with our allies against the pig face dictator Donald Trump?❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Deleted anything related to the US. Everything. Will never buy anything American, nor will i go to the US anymore. You elected a tyrant. A tyrant aligned with everything filthy on this planet. You needed to stand up to that bully at the last election but you ignored every red light just for the improbable « chance » to save a few bucks!? Shame on you all. Now deal with the consequences.

I hope and pray that the US military that took their solemn oath to protect the people of the United States and our constitution both foreign and abroad will stand by their oath now as American needs you very very much to protect us from the dictator in the White House so please stand on your oath

I'm American...and I wish canada would put a 500% tariff on America..yes we would suffer but somebody needs to stand up to the bullies...lol the American govt doesn't care about fentanyl ..

Canada will be fine! It's the Americans that will be tariffed by many countries by the time the lunatic is done. He will burn that country to the ground. We'll see who's still standing! I'm not all that worried because besides food, which we've easily replaced what do we get from the US? Nothing we can't get elsewhere. However, the US needs our resources. The lunatic is going to speak to Canadian's later today. Someone tell him we won't be listening!

?As a USA citizen, I'm ashamed.\nI stand with this message. \nI am part of those who will suffer a homebound SSI disabled poor American. I worked all my life since I was 14 years old. Most times, 2 jobs at a time, for nothing.\n? Godspeed to us all. We need it.

Good job all of you Countries need to stand up for yourselves because we Americans don’t agree with this either and we stand behind you all because being a bully is never a good things and Trump and Vance is putting all Americans at risk with the moves they are playing trying to run the World.Well you know what in all reality Trump and Vance does not care about the American people only the Billionaires he is beside including Elon.So Zelensky get with Canada and other European countries and hold your own against Russia.Putin is evil and Trump is his friend period and will back Russia before he does NATO
