American people have elected their worst enemy, a traitor and a crazy man who is isolating USA to the free world. IMPEACH TRUMP FOR FREEDOM

Bottom line is Trump & Vance & the people who voted for them are complete idiots. Easing sanctions on Putin? Saying Ukraine started the war? Next Trump, mirroring his buddy Putin being in office since 1999, will try to stay in office for years & years.

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.

Wow! Sweden here. I stand by Canada. This is how a true leader speaks. What Trump is doing is irrational and he still don’t seem to understand how tariffs works. He’s hurting his own people with yet another effort to break down all alliances around the world. He threatens Europe, Palestine, Greenland, Mexico and many more. He cuts funding for Ukraine and aline with Russia. He managed in a month to crash so many lives in his own country and do not keep promises from his campaigns. How can one man destroy so much….

With thos tarrifs war, Trump does typical populistic move. He creates problem, which he will successfully remove in few months, to show American people that he removes tarrifs created by other countries and he is the first to stop tarrif war. He will of course deny that he was first.

CNN is bending the knee to Trump turning its back on freedom of speech and the American people. Nobody is standing up for us not even the DOJ. It is up to us, the people…

Your a puppet for china and soros everyone know that. Your on your way out ! You e been stealing from us for years hurting your own people. Its a good thing you have a good speech writer . We shall see whos stonger in the end you lying trator to your own country. Youve sat and let drugs and illegals invade our boarders for years you worthless piece of **** .How dare you speak to Trump like you have a right to your sickening. Your ready to release what ever it is you have to betray your people and Americans to further your own sale out agenda your an evil coward .

Their are some People that voted for Trump that are finally waking up to the reality of the situation I'm keeping my faith that we will over come all this chaos in our country and can get rid of Donald Trump and Elon Musk for good

Trump was cozy with putin in his first term whi is so many people acting like they didn't know that trump and putin are friends ?

I think the world of good and democratic people should join together against this tyrannical autocratic and completely lying government of the USA find other trade and manufacturing partners- mineral rights of Ukraine to Canada and Europe…. This mr. trump is ruining our lives - and of course - I did not vote for him….

This has nothing to do with Canada or the Canadian people. This is a pure transactional move because that is how Trump sees things. He needs the money to finance his agenda and he has been told that the money does not exist in terms of what the US Congress can provide. They won't cut military spending and they wouldn't dare touch SS or Medicare. Therefore, Trump is resorting to the only available option which is to have the American people pay for it all and that is what he is doing with these tariffs. He doesn't need to worry about reelection so he couldn't care less how much pain he is inflicting on the very people who voted for him. Elections have consequences.

More lies by CNN and Canada. Trump has never sided with Russia. Not now or back in 2016 when our American government tried to persecute Trump for collusion with Russia. Canada should own up to the fact that they owe American people 200 billion dollars a year because they can't support there own country. They let illegals and drugs pour in.

The American people don't want tariffs on no country, this is unfair and we all will suffer for this stupid plan,this is Trumps plan and uncalled for. I am disgusted with Trump siding with Putin and Russia ,he has sold out the American people and Trump and Musk has siding with Putin. Wake up America and protest against these tariffs ,I am disgusted with Trump, please stand up to secure our democracy. I am mad and disgusted.

I don't know if this makes any difference or not because with trump and the fools in the republican party running things it seems like we have no say on anything. I think it's absolutely despicable how he has cheated his way into the White House again. \nWe stand with you Canada. If the Democrats can kick him out of the White House we will.\nThere are a lot of people who do not want anything to do with what he's doing. Don't hang us all because of his evil ways.\nAs I said we stand with Canada, and Mexico. God be with us all! Amen

What Putin has asked Donald Trump to do is to break away from my allies so he can become a dictator! If the people of the United States do not stand up, we are going to end up in World War iii, we are going to end up poor, hungry, and barely hanging on for our lives because Donald Trump is selling us out 2 our enemy is there any ignorant ass person that still standing behind Donald Trump and think he's a great guy, you need to go and fuc yourself! I am pissed off and frightened at the same time one a little bit more than others at time because the United States has been taken over by a Madman that is so hungry to be a dictator like Putin and he actually think is going to happen and he would do everything to make it happen! Donald Trump has been tested in the waters to become a dictator!

People who voted for Trump, are you happy? That man is crazy

We the American people voted for this. Trump represents us . And we love it. Tit for tat trump keep it going

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.

Trudeau stop saying the American people Trump is not the democratic president stop saying American people. Just say Trump. Most Americans don't approve. Trump tariffs not the American tariffs. Not our government it's Trump.

We applaud you for doing the right thing!!! Trump is a bully and a convicted criminal who is the WORST PRESIDENT WE HAVE EVER HAD!!! \nThank you for standing up for the people!!!!!

I am an American. I want to apologize for our idiot president. With luck he will be gone soon. America loves Canada. Trump just likes to hurt people and break things fo his boss, Putin.

More and more obvious every day. Trump is owned by PUTIN! He acts as an enemy toward we American people, and toward our true allies. He MUST be removed from power immediately. He is compromised and unfit to lead or to represent the real United States of America!! Just look at all the damage he has done already!!!

So Canada is allowed to secure their border and be proud of that but when trump does it these same people come out and call on him not to be racist and care for his neighbour? Everything this man says is a lie

The only thing trump hears in this is “you’re a very smart guy” \n Trumps people will cut this piece up and tell the world Trudeau gave a speech saying trump was smart and has done big things.

FELON TRUMP JUST DON'T CARE ABOUT US THE AMERICAN PEOPLE . HE CARES ABOUT PUTIN THATS WHO HE CARE ABOUT... AND THE TARIFFS HE CAN CARE LESS AT WHO HE HURTS. HE IS A CRIMINA.THATS IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

You are the reason we are in this position, don’t blame Trump for your poor leadership, you are a terrible Priminister probably the worst in history just like Biden you need to go , you are a enemy to the Canadian people.

As a America we have some sorry kiss behind no back bone chicken liver republicans and the gullible people who voted for him. You guys was lie to con and hoodwink. Trump sold a pile dream congratulation

Prime Minister Trudeau, thank you for showing the world how a true gentleman and leader talks to the leaders of another country in spite of the irrational, immoral and turncoat actions from a former Ally; our (?) new MAGA President Donald Trump. It's so surreal that this narcissistic, psychopathic person actually won the Presidential election (again). All I can say is I am sorry, embarrassed, and ashamed of my broken country's politicians in Washington, D.C. at present. Many more Americans support the democratic policies than the anti-democratic that Trump's regime is spouting all around the world. Just know this isn't what most Americans believe and we don't support his thoughts and actions. We are trapped in this nightmare that makes no sense. We hope this is just a temporary change. These new policies benefit no one but the oligarchs of America (and world). I guess we are just going to have to take our punishment for the few years for not being able to prove that these people in Washington care NOTHING for anyone, including their own constituent, and are hell bent on taking down and destroying our American, Democratic way of life and we, the people, are helpless to stopping it dissolve and crumble. Thank you Canada for always being such great neighbors. Good luck, peace out!

Yeah I’m guessing if trump made that call this guy was doing something nefarious behind the scenes. His people hate him. He’s a baby dictator. He’s in no position to lecture anyone about governments hurting their people!

To Canada, the American people apologize. We do not approve of this and we do not approve of Trump.

Trump is a bully it was never about the opioid crisis because he doesn’t give a crap about people we are not against the people of America, it’s your president. That’s the bully and all his caucus.

Great speech Prime Minister. Thank you. And Donald does not deserve to be called President or even the respect to be called Mr. Trump. He is not. He is a Bully. I am glad you called him Donald. I am sure a lot of people have another name for him right now. I am a proud Canadian. I do not blame the American people. Just those who put Donald in power and those who work with him and support him. I love the US and hope and pray we will get through this together.

After 9/11 Howard Lutneck make BILLIONS cause Americans felt sorry. He begged people to support is COMPANY. He never lost a DIME. He is as crooked as Mr Trump

I guess we have to get used to living with rapist and child molesters getting whatever they want. Since Trump literally got the sex offender brothers in the country so they skip out on justice just like Donnie got to do. That's the country we live in. A country where literally rapist and child molesters are granted safe passage and decent people with integrity are talked to like criminals. It's absolutely shameful to be an American

The Republicans have betrayed more than our old friends and allies with this astonishing attack on Canada, coming on the heels of Trump's performative assault on Ukrainian sovereignty. They've betrayed our constitutional republic, common sense, simple human decency, our core institutions, our people. The best of what we have ever been or hoped to be as a nation has been jettisoned to privilege the worst, including the South African billionaire who is currently dismantling Social Security, and the Russian tyrant who has hungered for years to kill NATO and the Western alliance, an outcome the Republicans are now handing him on a silver platter.

The whole world must admit that the old people have no place in politics. This gerontocracy is already tired. Putin and Trump for two are 150 years old. And what do these idiots do? chaos, absurdity, destruction.

Trump is working for himself not for American people!!!

We the American people don’t want Trump

Can a us become a province of Canada. Because I'm not proud to be an American with Maga on this earth and Trump as the King and Elon being president. The gullible average American who voted for a rapist and felon is a problem too. Never forget who put these un American people in office.

The GOP wants to defund education because it keeps people ignorant enough to create a massive slave class too stupid to know that Trump and his kind have nothing for them—now or ever.

I don’t hold it against the American people at all. Trump is the trashcan here.

What a big difference between the speaches of DJT , Trump is trying to get Americans to believe that he is the savior of the USA. Justin Trueau is an intelligent and serious leader of Canada - compliment! \nHe stumbles along with a very limited vocabulary in his speeches, speeches in which any normal person can hear how little intelligence and substance there is behind these words. \nNow he is blackmailing the victim of the Russian war instead of the perpetrator, just as he is sacrificing everything the free world stands for for his confused fantasies. \nHe is now even demanding a third term in office, although in the first few days he has already brought more harm to the people than any president before him. \nThis is the direct path to a dictatorship in the Putin model.

The fentanyl excuse is just that an excuse, trump wants to make money from tariffs to give a huge tax break to the billionaires in the USA including musk, he is not worried at all about fentanyl, he doesn't care about other people, but he does care about tax breaks for himself and the billionaires who support him. I support Canada and Mexico in this trump fiasco, and I hope Canada and Mexico really make trump squirm. trump knows tariffs will hurt the US citizens but he knows it will hit the Lower and middle classes the hardest, not causing him and the billionaires nearly as much trouble. He is hoping that the tariffs will bring in enough money for him to be able to give the billionaires including himself a huge tax break.

Trump and his maggots did this not the normal US people.

Mr Trudeau, trump talking about Fentanol is a lie, simply take a look, if that drug is so dangerous, why in China ?? there is nothing noticed about that Fentanol, no drugs records, no drugged chinese people on streets, like in usa drugged nation .. \nusa is deadly scared of Chinese ?? development .. so please take proper side of that usa BS ..

The truth of American arrogance and ignorance was on full display when it decided that a proven liar and convicted felon was the best person to lead America and represent the values it stands for. Trump voters were quite happy with the prospect of other people and countries suffering, but let's see how they handle their own suffering. It must be very confusing for most Americans to hear a politician speak logically and rationally like this.

I was relieved to hear Trudeau put a division between US people (us) and US government (Trump and Vance). It's just beginning folks, it took idiots to put Trump in office and the idiot is going to bring this country down. You put him in office, believe it Trump a known liar is going to make you pay. I have cancer with little time left and happy to miss out.

I’m so ashamed of our country. This is going to cause global economy collapse. This is going to hurt everyone, and country, and corporations. Trump knows what he’s doing. He’s working with Putin to cause this- global plutocracy. Thank you for speaking truth to power. Maybe now, it will sink in to people. We pay, not ??. They are force to put tariffs on their goods, who do you think pays? This is ?, peanut butter, Aluminum foil, etc. I suggest start stocking up. In about two weeks increased prices will hit the shelves.

Could Canada Win a Trade War?\n Trump has waged Economic War on Canada in order to bring us to our knees so that we will eventually capitulate to become the 51st state.\n\n Had he come in a nice way, as a friend verses a foe, he would have had a lot more interest, especially from Alberta. \n\n Now that we are here, the question has to be asked, can we actually win a trade war that has probably been extensively war-gamed by the U.S.?\n\n Our politicians want us to go toe to toe with a 900 lb gorilla. The U.S. economy is at least 10 times our size and are less dependent on our trade than we are. We may give them a black eye but they could rip our arms and legs off. \n\n Retaliatory tariffs play into their hands. It’s the perfect excuse to increase the tax to 50 or 100%. So will we do the same? This would devastate us, achieving their goals.\n\n Canadians are already fighting back without the government making things worse. People are boycotting U.S. goods en masse and cancelling travel plans, etc. and this is already having a strong effect.\n\n Some say turn off the electricity and oil, but who will pay price? It will be the businesses and employees, not the politicians who are now trying to act tough. If we want this to turn into a real kinetic war, then turning off the taps may do it. \n\n We have seen countless times where politicians tell us what we want to hear, making us think they are heading is a certain direction, only to find they do the exact opposite. This proves you can not believe what career politicians say and have to go by what they do, or don’t do, instead. Yet now, they confidently declare that Canada will never become the 51st state. This should raise eyebrows. \n\n Almost all of the MPs and Premiers are unanimous in entering into a trade war we can not win. After tariffs go ballistic, our dollar drops to .35 cents, and we get utterly crushed, I can see them say, “in order to save what’s left of our economy and society we must reluctantly join the U.S. or face certain destruction”. \n\n Not only would the decades old goal of a North American Union be accomplished, but we would take a large step towards the video statement that the World Economic Forum - WEF posted on their website. “By 2030, you will own nothing and be happy”. \n\n The WEF is working with the UN to achieve their Agenda 2030 goals and is what Pierre Poilievre and the “Conservatives” signed Canada onto Sept. 27, 2015. This is what Trudeau has been implementing. Mark Carnie, Pierre, and Jagmeet Singh would finish off the job. Read the redistribution of wealth goal #10. Are you feeling poorer yet? Remember, one has to dig deeper to see through the document’s ultimate double speak written for public consumption. \n\n There is much more going on than meets the eye. Our best defence is to not play into their hands. A much better plan needs to be developed by minds who see the big picture for creative solutions, and it does not seem to be those in office now

Your right I did not vote for Trump I did not like his firstTerm and he is much worse now I am a Independent voter the people they have running are all full of shit The USA IS GOING UNDER and unless we stand together to Impeach the whole white house we are in trouble I am going to a few of those rallies and I am hoping some how we can Impeach all Republicans and get them the hell out of the USA once and for all God Bless we the people in America we don't stick together you can count on World War lll and I Blame it totally on Trump and the brain washed Republicans mark my words your going to regret it I think alot of you are already Will Good Luck To All
