This is a good man. I wish we had someone in the White House who looked and sounded like him. TRUMP IS RUINING US AND STILL NI ONE IS DOING ANYTHING. What is wrong with the DEMOCRATS. GET MOVING GET TRUMP OUT OF THE POSITION HE’S IN BEFORE WE ARE ALL FORCED TO BOW DOWN TO PUTIN BECAUSE THAT’S WHERE THIS IS GOING.

God I wish we had a leader like him

As a stressed out American over this dumpster fire, I wish we had someone like Trudeau leading us

I wish we had a leader like this

Great speech from Trudeau, he is on his way out as prime minister and has been unpopular but no doubt he has had his finest moments lately. I wish Canada and a number of US states and sane US citizens could form their own nation or even a union at least. We'd be better off, anything is better than now. Americans will get hit hard by this too, so dumb. Trump is a fascist and brainwashed a cult called MAGA.

Impressive, Mr. Trudeau! I wish we germans had a leading Politician, able to hold such a smart speech. Congratulation Canada!

I wish the Stupid people of America ?? had the sense to vote for a real leader like this Guy.

American here and I wish we had you as a president ❤ I can’t believe what is happening

Trump could care less how much the tariffs will hurt us Americans. He’s a dictator. The American people don’t support the actions he is taking. Only 25% of the US support him. They are uneducated and easily swayed people. \nMy ancestors are all from Quebec. Boy do I wish I had Canadian citizenship. I pray for Canada and their people. Please forgive the American people for being fooled by this dictator. ❤

Oh how I wish we had a young and intelligent president

Imagine once being the country that so many allies and neighbors sought refuge in—only to become this. Damn. I wish we had a leader who could articulate himself this well or actually cared about humanity. Those of you who voted for this will soon see and feel the consequences of your actions. The truth is, Trump isn’t smart— and unfortunately, neither are most Americans.

I know PM Justin Trudeau has had his critics but he is far more of a statesman than Trump or Vance could ever wish to be! Their actions are tantamount to treason and the great American citizens are being thrown under the bus.

I wish we had a president that was so eloquent. The hateful orange Nazi doesn’t represent all of us. God bless Canada.

I wish we had a president

As an American I stand with Canada. So wish we had a leader like this . Millions of reasonable Americans agree with you

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

It's just refreshing to hear a leader who is an intelligent, educated human being, I wish we had one in America.

I wish the USA had an adult to lead it like Canada and not a bully who acts like a spoiled child that needs a time out. Trump just go golfing every minute of every day for the next three years and leave the American people to live with the world.

I really wish we had a president who could speak this eloquently.

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am sorry President Trump's irresponsible ideas and choices affect so many negatively which includes you and your Canadians, and me and my Americans, as well as so many other. He should be ashamed of himself, but we all know that a narcissist feels only joy in hurting others. I worry every day, not just for the people of the United States of America, but also for all people around the world affected by this horrible man. I stand up and speak up with the hope that it makes a difference. Those I know are doing the same. I have heard so many republicans that voted for Trump, so very sorry now that they did. His irrational behavior is worthy of impeachment. Your speech, Prime Minister Trudeau, was honest and sincere and I appreciate your being so candid. I wish President Trump and Vice President Vance had the character you have. Best Wishes to you and the People of Canada, we have been friends for a long time and I would love to continue this friendship. Remember there are Americans here that appreciate you and your country.

Wish we in America had a president this put together. I stand with Canada

I sure wish we had a leader like canada. We have a mentally unfit old man in charge of our country. So happy canada is not backing down to the bully donald. I wish i could go live in canada untill the imature child 4 yrs. Is past. So sorry to you canada for what this immature bully is doing. So sorry for a convicted felon, sexual predator, has done to the countries.

I wish we had a president as intelligent and as handsome as this man ?

I wish we had a president with this IQ.

I wish we had a leader like you in the US Mr. Trudeau! i never voted for Trump. He is a horrible president.

I wish the U.S. had a leader who cared about our country.

I wish we had a President as articulate as Trudeau, someone who can express coherent thoughts and speak the truth without acting like a mob boss!

This is HEARTBREAKING, because Trudeau is speaking to EVERYONE like a leader SHOULD!!! He left NO doubt how much he cares about his fellow citizens, and that their government will help them as much as they can!! \nThis is what AMERICANS dream about, a leader that cares about us!!! We wish and pray that our leader looked and spoke like that!!! \nCANADA is showing the WORLD what TRUE LEADERSHIP LOOKS LIKE!!! It's HEARTBREAKING for ALL the Canadian and American people that are gonna feel the pain, and NOT the BILLIONAIRES that are INTENTIONALLY hurting ALL Americans. \n\nI had a tear in my eye, because of the overwhelming pride I had for Canada and Trudeau!! \nAmericans are hanging their heads in embarrassment!!! \nGo Canada!!????\nGo Ukraine!!????

Support from Bulgaria! Great speach . I wish we had a president like you ,not some Putin's pet!

I’m American and I wish we had a leader like Trudeau. To all the MAGA idiots that voted for Trump, thanks for ruining our country. It only took 6 weeks.

As an American, I wish we had a REAL PRESIDENT, and not a three-year old having tantrums.

Such a smart man, I wish we had him for President! Not the uneducated stupid clown we have! People! Don’t be fooled, this isn’t about fentanyl! Watch closely people, this is Dump smoking mirrors into stealing from all of us! And in the meantime we will be paying the price for his stealing!!!

As a 60 year old American, I wish I had a President as erudite and intelligent as President Trudeau.\n Sadly, America ended up with a stooge.\nGo Canada.

I really wish we had a President that was as presidential as Trudeau. I'm so fucking tired of this overly dramatic, childish, reality TV bullshit we call a government.

I wish we had a president like him. Instead of the American hating idiot we have. Our election was a scam.

I wish we had a leader like him!!! Our leader and his voters are a disgrace.

I only wish my country, the US of A had a leader as articulate and intelligent as this man.\nTrump is a humiliation to this country. He is scum. \nI am so ashamed that half my country voted him into office.

Very brave and straightforward! I wish we had a politician like him in Europe

How I wish Italy had such a leader

Articulate, compassionate, intelligent. I wish we had a leader in our country like him

I hate being an American. I did what I could but failed. Countrymen voted against it, and well .. we are now all in this hell together. Left stuck and upset at all of this. I am proud of Canada and wish we had a more capable leader. I am so sorry to everyone else. Know its not everyone in america follows the goons about.

I wish we had a president like that, i really miss Biden . He may have been old but damm his economy kicked ass.

DAMN i wish we had a REAL PRESIDENT here in America and not an ORANGE CLOWN PRETENDING to be a president!!!!

I wish we had a leader like this!

I have to say, daamn thats a good speach and a good leader. I wish germany had someone like that

Trump chose to do this its not Canadas choice and I simple do not see how its justified. This is a tax on Americans make no mistake its OUR prices that will go up as well as Canadians. This sure smells of Russian influence to me, its almost as if Trump is trying to hurt America, he is for sure tearing up the Government. If Putin had a wish list separating us from our staunch allies would be #1

I wish the US had a leader who could speak so eloquently. We did with Obama.

I am glad Trudeau called Trump dumb ?. Indeed, Trump is the dumbest. I wish we had a leader like Trudeau.

I wish we had a president like canada does.

Mad respect for Trudeau! As an American, I wish we had a president like you. Can you buy the US? ?
