I pray Trump just leaves people alone I apologize sending love from Az

Believing that Trump cares about the prosperity of the American people is, minimally, extremely naive. Trump ONLY cares about his OWN prosperity.

I don’t think the majority of Americans want this. I did not vote for Donald Trump and I’m sure a lot of people that did are regretting their decision. This is so sad and depressing and stressful. God bless us all.

I like this guy. That being said, would i buy a Canadian Chevy Camaro? How about a helicopter? Does he not hear his people screaming about the cost of living?\n Houses,medical, school,crime all out of control. \n King Trump is Canadians white knight! Better economics, better travel and best of all American votes. If they want to fight...vote!

It was nice of Trudeau to call Trump a “very smart guy”. He’s not. He’s one of the dumbest people to ever be in politics.

The reason for trumps behavior is an all personal EGO. He doesn't want to look bad in front of others, even if it means hurting the country and their people. Its a childish game on a large scale schoolyard. He doesn't care who gets hurt. As long as he wins. He's blinded by his behavior. Maybe thats why he's president the puppeteer knew what he was doing. Canada ??

From Australia. Wasting your time Canada. The US don't care anymore. Their boy Trump is what they want. Got him in twice. Have to go with the will of the people.

President Trump want the best for the American people. President Trump wants Canada to secure their borders stop drugs coming over the border. That 5.5 thousand miles long I’m sure these holes in that line. President Trump wants everyone to start paying their share. Canada needs to know they need us more than United States needs them.

To the world a warning...president trumpet Trump will have his Knight of the long knifes and Canada and Mexico are just the beginning,,trust me on this you just wait and see people.

This is very WEAK by this President. President Trump was voted in by The Majority of Americans. We The People are tired of Not coming 1st. Canada is only weaker because of this speech. Weak.

Everyone can anticipate dumb Trump’s response - really no need to give him air time to say it. He’s a traitor to his country, its people, to his countries allies. It would be dumb to continue to cover Trump as if he is worth covering. He is no longer the leader of the free world and he is no longer the most powerful leader in the world. He has ceded that to Putin to whom he bends his knee when kissing his ass.

I can’t believe people voted for Trump, and put us in such danger!

Sir, I appreciate it, but you ain't gotta explain or apologize that you didn't want this. Our US government has lost its mind. What's worse, all the people that voted for that lunatic were brain washed into thinking this mess is good. I can't feel bad for the ones that are already suffering from the consequences. I always wondered how people fall for cult leaders. I know trump ain't a cult leader cuz he ain't that smart. He's a pedo throwing hissy fits and married to a porn chick, has a self-proclaimed couch screwer assistant, and he's leaning on the help of another idiot benefiting from government money, all the while imploding our government processes. This sucks.

Trump is a bastard. A prick. A charlatan. A fool. Incompetent. Inept. And a traitor. He is not only an embarrassment to the American people, but to the human race.

You say there's no need or reason for these tariffs but that is according to you. Donald Trump has made it very clear what he asks from the Canadian people. You are choosing to do something but not everything he's asking. He doesn't want to be unfair to anybody, but he also doesn't want to be treated unfairly as a country. So please listen to what he asks. He holds all the cards again. He can and will destroy your economy and you will become his and our 51st State. Thank you

What an emotional vote that American people are paying so badly. Americans have been warned about the choice of Trump on power, but not believed.

?? SENIL TRUMP IS A BIG COWARD! STRONG WITH THE WEAK BUT WEAK WITH THE STRONG! THE AMERICAN PEOPLE MUST EXPEL THIS MONSTER FROM THE GOVERNMENT!!?

Why don't they let people here what he has to say ? Because they want to smear trump unstead of letting the viewers hear his words

Canadian government has made Canadians paralyzed for decades with high tax rates, made worst business decisions emptied citizens pockets to fill outsiders and their own. Instead of making Canadians rich you have made us poor. I don't disagree to standup for yourself but our foundation is the weakest. If you want to change something think of Canadians make things easier...STOP making admissions hard for professionals pay more wages where its needed and stop increasing minimum wages without improving the lifestyle of people. A 16 yr old making minimum wage and don't even know what to do with the money improve the quality of life. Make businesses boom by helping them with easier access to grants and business approvals. Help investors to grow and help middle class to become investors, make import export much easier. Better laws to protect investors...help those who are growing the economy not dinging them with more and more taxes. This tariff war is going to hurt us more than anyone else. Us poor Candians will have to pay for this hurt our children and our seniors. And that's exactly what Trump and Elon want. To the next Canadian PM - HELP CANADIANS! LET LIVE AND LET GROW...

Kkk tho different subject why is he mixing tariffs and the issue of Ukraine trump has ever right to put America first and that is why overwhelming majority of American people elected him

Time for Mr Trump to go let's impeach his ass today! Our closest Ally is Canada and we have to deal with his bulshit Mr Trump you need to get a life and think of the American people not just your own pocket.

It is not lost on me that Trudeau treats the American people with more compassion and respect than Trump ever has or ever will.

Good for Canada. Trump is with Russia and Putin's puppet. Take care of your people.

This is how a Countries Prime minister acts and talks something Donald Trump could learn from. Well done, Canada and well done to the Canadian people.

We the people I am so sick of hearing Trump name everyday and I mean everyday. And we know that we should not be friends with a war criminal. We were taught all our lives that no not is above the law. The FBI and the CIA got our back. The military and the police or the best in the world. And no one is above the law. And even though we were not prefect we was taken maybe baby steps but they were steps. Now we have one party who has soul out to Russia. How do you feel about being friends with Putin.? And now the MAGA party does not want to talk to We the people at town meetings. And I believe everything that Trudeau and the Mexico President over anyone and I mean anyone in the MAGA fascist party.

This is how we treat our friends and allies now. It's as if Trump has chosen to go to war against the American people directly, ruining our friendships like a jealous mate who wants to isolate you from his friends. He doesn't want us to have friends other than an equally abusive one like Russia. Did the voters really want this, even the ones who voted for him?

Bravo Justin Trudeau....they only care when money is involved, not about the world and least of all the citizens of this crumbling country...do what you must for your people and don't cowtow to the corrupt and fascist Trump government

Only people in the U.S., who subscribe to the Cult of Donald J. Trump approve of his actions. Trump is the Cult Leader, but it is so sad he is forcing all of us to drink his home brewed Kool-Aid.

It should be said the people who didn’t vote for trump are just as pissed off as the rest of the world. Remember that. Fact is in my opinion America hasn’t embodied the views it was founded on in a very long time and is likely a shell of what it used to be. Corporate greed and shareholders is what runs this country and it disgusts me to my core. Honestly I don’t wanna stay here and the more people I meet as my life has continued the more I feel like these aren’t my people and the more I feel that this place isn’t my home. I’ve no loyalty to my country anymore and I blame the greed and corruption my “people” have elected to vote in to power. It sickens and disgusts me and I am at a loss as to what to do.

Trump is not being played by Putin. Trump is a russian agent used by Putin to destroy the West. USA people cannot believe this, but thats the truth.

As a powerless American, I hope other countries will help curve Trump's madness/power kick. \n\nIt's embarrassing. He's destroying our economy, causing mass job loss, and just being played like a monkey by Musk, the Republican Party, and Putin. \n\nSeriously....I get his followers are either selfish rich people or ignorant barely passed highschool racists, but stupid/selfish is an excuse that only goes so far.

This is the very beginning of the United States fall. this seems like Tyler Perry TV show the oval. Trump is trying to enslave the American people by disassociating other countries so the American people won’t have anywhere to run. He’s trying to be like Putin a dictator. Trump has to go. He’s not a smart businessman. He’s not for the American people.?????

STAND AGAINST TRUMP DON'T LET TRUMP TAKE AWAY WHAT YOU THE PEOPLE HAVE WORKED SO HARD FOR !!!!

As an American and live near the border of Canada ?? in western ny ? I’m sorry to the people of Canada ? trump is the worse to take office our country. And he lied to our people

Trumps likes to speak over people because he always wants the final say he not interested what people have to say he wants people to shut up and obey his orders

Tough luck people, Trump is in until 2029.

I’m glad he spoke to the American people people again, it’s important they have the truth said from others besides the American Democratic Party; the Trump base are constantly constantly being lied to and gas lit by that administration and Republican Elected Officials :

Trudeau loves Trump. Before these tariffs, Trudeau was one of the most despised prime ministers in Canadian history. Now people around the world are praising him. We don’t need people to stand with us, we need him and his party gone!

From UK and as a Brexit voter i FULLY SUPPORT Donald Trump like most British people, no tariffs for us

alots of peoples start to tinking Trump are a Russian agent

tRump is the enemy of the people!

Trump and his Buddy Putin are 2 of a kind. They are downright Vicious! \nInhumane Greed! They will hurt all people! They will meet their Maker and will suffer the consequence of their own actions. They are Completely responsible for the suffering caused to Many many innocent people. Including Americans. They have no Soul! Pure Evil!

Trump is aligned with Putin. He's an enemy of the American people, an enemy of Western democracy, and an enemy of humanity as a whole.

I am a US citizen who does not want trump as president. I don't want these tariffs against Canada or Mexico. I'm so sorry trump is doing these tarrifs. Do what you must for your people. I'll support Canada and the Mexican people. Thank you

I don't know about you you but the $66.5B we've given to Ukraine could've been used here to give to our veterans. It's time we stopped getting screwed and put our nation and our people first. Zelensky is an ungrateful petulant boy. They can fight their own battle. We have enough problems at home to deal with. It's time someone with balls stepped up. Good job Trump let's make us great.

This is leadership people. Dictator Trump will fall.....

Trump is turning America into a fascist government destroying the middle an lower class.The tariffs will starve alot of Americans, cutting all programs that help people will be devastating. Elections dont matter anymore Musk an starlink has fixed that. His goal is to mirror Russia an all fascist governments. He's turning Russia enemies into US enemies.

Trump is the worst. How can everyone not see this. Are people really that stupid? I guess so, but his supporters stupidity shouldn’t be at the expense of the rest of us.

American people will suffer unfortunately now. Trump is out of control!

Trump has an agenda, and it is to destroy America and the American people. Trump and Putin are in this together. Congress stop sitting on your hands and do the job you were voted to do, remove trump from power!
