I am a naturalized American citizen and a veteran. NO to a Russian dictator. I am with Canada, our neighbors, friends and partners. I will fight for you without hesitation. I stand with Ukraine and their fight against the Russian invaders.\nI never voted for Trump and I am sick, horrified and ashamed of this current administration. Stay strong and thank you to Mr. Trudeau for this great lesson in statemanship.

Once again, Canada is fighting against tyranny, it's a shame that it's your neighbor. Stand strong because we, the American people, need you to.

Trump is doing the same thing to Canada that Putin is doing to Ukraine, disgraceful. Stand strong Canada!

I am from Alberta, Canada and would like to thank all the American people that have said that they stand with Canada. YOU CAN HELP. Call or write to your various levels of government and let them know that this is wrong and will hurt everyone in the US and Canada. The sooner that the US government realizes this is a no win situation, the better for all of us. Also, thank you to everyone around the world for your support. I am Canadian, I am strong and free and I will fight for my country and for my family.

As a sane American, I stand with Canada! Thank you for standing strong.

As an American, why can't we have a leader this good! SMH. Stay strong Canada, we stand with you & Ukraine!

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

Germany will always stand on our friends site! Be strong canada and stay strong

Japanese here. We are disgusted by the monster and stand with Canada too. Stay strong!!

Fellow Canadians, stand behind him. Stay strong.\n\nWe need President Trump to take over. Make Canada America Again.\n\n82% of Canadians support President Trump\n\n61% of Canadians want to be part of a great pure America

Go Canada! Stand strong against the illegal, illogical, and downright stupid tariffs!

I’m with you Canada. I’m an American, but I do not agree with our present leadership. They are absolutely horrible.\n\nWay to stand strong Canada \n????

Trump picking a fight with both his neighbors while his own house is burning down. No matter what Trump does Canada will stand strong and we will fight for our country. ?????????

Well said PM .\n\nWe stand strong.\n\nGod bless Canada and US.

From a WA State neighbor, I stand with Canada. Continue strong. You don’t deserve this. ??????

AMERICAN PEOPLE LOVE CANADA. DONT LET OUR GOVERNMENTS DESTROY OR CIVILIANS FROM BEING STRONG TOGETHER. ?????? (NORTH AMERICA STAND TOGETHER) ???????

I am so ashamed that our tyrant in chief has done this to the people of a country I love to visit. Stand strong Canada. Please call a lie a lie.

From Aussie land here, that was an excellent speech you should be proud Canada. We luv you guys, its great to see your country stand together total respect. Stay strong for your country

Trump is doing this so he thinks Canada will fold and give their beautiful country to him! Stand strong Canada. We, in Australia, another Commonwealth country, are behind you ?

Stand strong Canada. The good people of the US stand with you.

A neurologist should thoroughly examine Trump's brain, as I strongly suspect the presence of significant anomalies. It is conceivable that some of these could be addressed through medical intervention. However, in his current state, his cognitive and behavioral responses appear untenable. It would be prudent to declare him temporarily unfit for decision-making until his condition improves. Wishing him a swift and full recovery!\n\nPeople of Canada, we in Germany hold you in high regard and stand with you. Stay strong—we will support you ❤

From Texas to you ❤️❤️ we do not stand behind Trump. A lot of us did not vote or care for Trump. Gosh I just got my passport, we were planning to visit Canada ❤️❤️ and I don’t blame you for hating us. ?Stand strong Canada most Americans stand with you. I truly believe Trump is doing all this to strengthen his greediest he doing this to line his money pockets with middle Americans Musk will help him become one of the richest men in the world and he will get there on the backs of middle class hard working Americans. He isn’t trying to help Americans he is helping himself and all his rich buddy’s I refer to them all as roaches.

From Washington state, I applaud your strong stand against Trump and his administration who do NOT represent a large portion of the United States, including me!! l love Canada and hope you remain strong in your stance against Trump!!!

Stand strong Canada ??, support here from the UK ??. I have never been to your country, but there will be ? support for you over here, from everybody. Trump really is behaving like a complete and utter pratt.

He's a bully who just wants another state, stay strong, Canada I stand with ? so do many Americans !!

We stand strong and together in Canada ?? ❤️

Long live Canada from Ukraine. Stand strong! Trump must be destroyed

I am proud of my canada. We will not back down to the US.We will stand strong ? together ??

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! ????

Canada, you are also my family and I stand with you strong, no matter what measures you may have to take to show this idiot that he can't bully everyone. I'll get ready to get a generator. You got to do what you got to do

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 ❤??

Canada will stay strong forever.we stand together.

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

Don't get me wrong: This is sick and sad at the same time! Stand strong, Canada! Europe stands with you! Maybe we Europeans are going to import a lot more goods from you now, because Europe already plans to import much less from the... whatever is left over of the USA. But does Trudeau in this speech somehow sound like Dr. Breen in Half-Life 2 on the screens in City 17? ^^

Canada, stand strong. Trump is taking our country down a bad and scary path when Canada has always been one of our closest allies.

Ah yes, the trade war that Canada will surely lose. I love Canada. Wouldn't trade it for the world, but this is a losing battle by which citizens on both sides will feel the full effect. Trump appeasing Putin is a chess move, that the PM seems to be overlooking. The US can't afford to go to war with Russia, but at the same time, it needs resources within Russia's neighboring region. So the US will do what they always do, and had people listened to what Kissinger had to say, they'd be better prepared for this. Nonetheless, let's stand proud and strong, and come together as Canadians in order to get through this.

Great, unambiguous words by the Canadian president! But one of his remarks stood out: he said that the tyrants want to divide us. He is correct, of course. But the implications are profound! This means that Trudeau himself is measuring his words and deliberately using diplomatic language. He even says that Trump is “intelligent”, which only plays into the imbecile’s unfortunate NPD psychology! The unwillingness to stand strong against American tyranny is harming democracy worldwide! Force Trump to declare a side! And make him choose Putin or democracy NOW!! If you fail to do that, you are taking the path of accommodation, and if Trump is really a tyrant (which he surely is, because of MANY evidences!!), democratic countries weaken their position by not standing strong NOW. If Europe and Canada and Mexico ban Tesla imports and place 50% tariffs on tens of billions of dollars of American products, what would happen? Are these countries AFRAID of the United States? This is not the time for fear! This is the time for courage! Boycott!!!

It’s remarkable how a very small group of individuals gets to speak for the entire country. I feel like the overwhelming majority of Americans support Canada and want to keep relations healthy and strong.\n\nHow much blood has been shed over the egos of a few? We are pawns in their game. The People stand together!

Nice, not only Zel stand up against the new bully/evil on earth. Stand strong Canada!!!! Love from Europe

I stand with canada from Switzerland????\nStay strong?

Canada stand strong. Do trade with Ukraine. F**k Trump!

American here. Family moved to Canada ?? after American Revolutionary War (yep family was a royalist). Stayed in Oh Canada for over 100 years. As an American ?? (country I love) - I stand with Canada ?? even though it will cost me & other lower / middle classes $$$$. Not Canada’s fault. It is the fault of the orange ? man who is a pretender POTUS. A man who kisses Putin’s ring. A man who protects billionaires & trillionaires… not the majority of U.S. Americans. He doesn’t care about the grossly misguided people who voted for him - they are finding out now! Stay Strong Canada ??! Thank you for standing up to this American Bully! So many of us are ashamed, disgusted, and so sorry! ❤??❤??

CANADIANS HAVE TO BE STRONG AND STAND TOGETHER..THIS IS AN ACT OVE WAR AGAINST OUR COUNTRY OUR WAY OVE LIVES AND FREEDOM..IT WILL GET WORST TRUMP IS A DICTATOR AND DANGEROUS. NO RETREAT NO SURRENDER CANADA STRONG ????????????

Stay strong Canada! Trump is starring in the movie Canadian Bacon. \nWe the people need to stand against trumps and his fascist administration and the traitorous republican legislators!

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.

I am a USA citizen, and I support Canada, and I hope your government stands strong against our dictator. It's about time that someone puts Trump in his place. And if he continues to trash Mexico, we will stand with her as well. There are many Americans who think our current President is a menace to the world. He is greedy, arrogant and filled with pride. God Bless Canada!!

Way to go Justin! Stand strong Canada!!

Stand strong Canada We Americans are with you and Mexico ❤\nI think Canada will miss him he's a good man who loves his country
