Donald Trump just wants Canada and Mexico to do his job for him.

Ha ha. All Canada has to do is proceed to join BRICs . This will panic USA to back down fast.

God Trudeau go Canada brilliant speech ? ? \nFrom Australia ??

Can I ove to Canada now ??????????????????????????????????

As an American, it’s so shameful to witness this take place. Canada, please know many of us vehemently oppose what has happened to our country, but our voices are being strategically stifled. It’s a scary place to be. ?

This current regime is transmuting Trump's anger at the whole world into punitive measures. Tariffs will raise inflation, bullying and fingerwagging gratuitous. To use fentanyl and human trafficking and illegal border crossings as an excuse is chicken. Canada accommodated US by setting up commissions to combat each. So...what is the real schtick here? He is gonna alienate everybody but Putin.

The close relationship between the US and Canada has ended. We have to do more than stop buying alcohol, much much more. This was never about fentenal Trump just wants to take over our country. He wants to be another Putin and yes he called him Donald, just like Trump called him in a demeaning way as Justin or Governor Trudeau. Payback is a bitch

As an American I stand with Canada and F@$K TRUMP!

At this point they should just watch as the United States implodes on itself. The funny thing is just a couple weeks ago he seemed so confident that Canada was going to sign as the 51st.

His girlfriend is running foreign ministry of Canada, both of them targeted India big time just because India took out some of the Khalistani terrorists on Canadian soils.

Canada- Strong today-Stronger Tomorrow!! Never been prouder to be Canadian. Thank you PM Trudeau!!!

Canada and eu has national healthcare they afford that by having the us pick up the tab

I really like the way that he said about he's not going to sugar coat anything and he spoke so clearly to inform Americans what is truly going on with what Trump is doing to this country and Trudeau is telling people the truth just like the leader from North Korea. When you get leaders who barely rare give speeches then you know that they are not bull sh**ing about what they are talking about, but Trump is doing that and he's going to destroy people's lives in America and he's going to destroy America. Why would he turn a country (Canada) who's been there for America into an enemy and that's because he doesn't care about the country and they don't have what he wants and all he cares about is money and power, so know he just turned a country Canada into an enemy, WTF IS HE THINKING ABOUT CLEARLY NOT PEOPLE IN AMERICA!

I live by the Canadian border. It is NOT easy to cross. Trump is lying and just trying to make himself look good even knowing tht Canada is willing to be a partner in combating illegal drugs. He wanted to get his court problems etc off his table. He had to get elected. And ELON helped that. Without Elon the shadow president he wouldn't have. Hell Elon had to pay people to vote for him.

All I can say as an American is that the giant majority of us do not want this at all. Donald does not speak for us and Canada and Mexico are our friends, especially in trade and culture. Our election system is so antiquated that tons of young people sat out and the swing states have all the power here. Plus, I don't think Mexico, Canada, France, Ukraine or any of you guys need to be apologetic, the US is what it is now

We don’t want this, either. He’s not our president. He stole the election and lied to his minions. We are sorry and we understand. We still love you, Canada. ?? ❤ we will still be here when he is dead and gone. We wish we had a good, polite leader.

Australia stands with Canada. The U.S has been infiltrated completely by Russia, and we should treat it as such.

Figured you'd be on CNN we don't need anything from Canada you need us thank you Donald Trump now maybe our country will start making everything we need like it used to be

As a Taiwanese, I condemn Canada for whining like a baby. We have already received enough benefits from the United States in the past. Now, the whole world must unite around Taiwan and the United States to counter the growing threat from China.

1:28 Did he just say, “non-tariff measures”, as in military action or something like that? Because if Canada wants to try that, Come And Take It.

I wonder if it's the stain's plan to force displacement of everyone not maga. Maybe he's trying to drive us out into Canada.

dear USA, we are going to find new customers for our raw goods. We most likely will not go back. You are discounting how many raw goods come from Canada

Hey why doesn't Canada have an immigration issue

Australia is with you all the way Canada. The USA is dead to us.

Most of the illegal fentanyl is produced in China yet I have not heard Trump mention that once since his attack on Canada.

who is even in control of canada

bring it Canada. You dont want the wrath of the United States. Continue down this path and you will absolutely become the 51st state.

We the big brother , I’m referring to the U.S. we don’t care about your tariff, America is the superpower, y’all need us , we don’t need Canada! Remember that !

Just wait until your companies leave Canada to produce their goods on US soil.

Canada Strong! We will fight back if provoked!

How about trade between Canadian provinces? First, we should remove interprovincial tariffs. I live in BC so I paid extra tax the Alberta oil much more than American. What a shame, especially liberal under Justin. I think the Conservatives should govern Canada. ?? I mean simple thing liberal was good last 9years then keep liberal otherwise, another party must govern our true north Canada.

Trump says he needs nothing Canada to offer…..yet oil and gas tariffs are only 10%.\nHmmm….\nI say shut off the taps to America, flip off the switch for electricity and make him come crawling back. Because that’s the only way American voters will understand what he is doing. America needs to revolt and end his reign of stupidity, because this is just the beginning of his\ntyrannical dictatorship.

Shame on Justin, I apologize as a Canadian to fellow American and Mr. President. Justin is not the majority choice. He's long gone and wants to put Canada down. ❤?

Has governor Trudeau not accepted the order from his boss President Trump yet, at making Canada Americas new state? ? I’m being sarcastic btw. I love Canada and dying for some poutine. I guess Burger King and some other burger chains here in Denmark comes close with their loaded fries, but it’s just not the same. The color of are flags are the same though. This is Trudeaus best speech, I always thought he was an idiot until today. Canada, je taime❤

The Canadian president just slammed Trump and his group of goons!! We love you Canada ❤

Trudeau for president! Let Canada annex the rest of ‘Merica as the 11th Province ?. Except Canadians are too smart to put up with the “menace to the south” even as a territory!!!

I love Canadian people; they're amazing people. I have friends from there. Canada.

BRAVO PM Trudeau!!!!!! this is fantastic that you are standing up against the inhinged criminal FELON and TYRANT!!\nDo not ever cave in to this idiot BULLY or Canada will forever regret it, trump cant be reasoned with, talked to , persueded or anything else.\nConsider CUTTING the electric power to the 3 US States, and the OIL exported to the US as well- hit HARD and don't give in! The rest of the world is BEHIND you and support you!

Y'all are so happy about the man who destroyed Canada. Hilarious ??

Embarrassed American here, stand with Canada and Ukraine ?? ??

Seems this guy by the way he is talking should be both president of Canada and America as he dioesnt talk like the chaos president clown in America , cuz everytime another country speaks Trump just lies

this is going to affect canada way more than it does america. no one cares what you have to say trudeau

It makes sense if the end game is Trump invades Canada and Mexico, just like Putin invaded Ukraine

Canada has benefited from the USA for many years — it’s time to step up and contribute. ? Let’s focus on fairness and sharing the responsibility don’t bitch about it pay us.

How about All the terrorist organisations and drug cartels operating from Canada.

Canada is gay af ?

We apologize on behalf of the almost 50% voters who didn't vote for Agent Orange and the Nazi-saluting President Musk. We love Canada! Please get your centrifuges running because you won't need much enriched Uranium to scare off Daddy Putin and his lapdogs in the White House. You have the know how. The only way to stand up to bullies is to show them you are not frightened of them. God Bless You!

Even the Americans citizens stand for Canada

Sorry Canada, i voted for kamala.

I’ve never been so Proud, or felt more patriotic, as I do at this very moment ??. We will survive, and we will stay strong. Elbows up Canada
