I want too take this time too say i am proud of you for saying you are a strong leader that obviously americans are sickened by the damage that trump has done too us Every True American who believes in our democracy we are suffering from just over 1 month and i am so sorry for how he treated Canada but understand this is NOT most Americans feelings were very upset and i pray that all of you in Canada realize our country has a been taken over and corrupted by trump and Elon Must

Im sorry Mr Trudeau, im sorry Canadian people. This American voted against this madness, and I do not support this ally of the evil of the world that is currently occupying the white House. This executive branch of the US government, along with the propaganda machine are fueling the supporters of this nonsense and they may not be able to determine the trauma that decisions like these tariffs, like putting down a great leader of a sovereign nation that was attacked by an aggressive country like Russia. This is going to do nothing but hurt people on every side.

Hear me out. I think Trump was threatened by Netanyahu to do this to all the countries that agreed with ICJ's arrest warrant and promised to arrest him on arrival. Netanyahu was the first leader Trump met and suddenly EU, Canada, and Mexico are being treated like this.

Spoken like a true leader of a country. One who speaks of allies and cooperation in an international environment. ??

A leader that tell his country the truth on how hard it will be

American voters who voted for Trump! This is a leader, not just handsome (which trump is claiming to be and is not), this is intelligent, (which trump is not), this is smart (which trump is not), this is articulate, (which trump is not) this is smartly countering trumps stupidly. Trump is the failure America that trump created with the help of those racist voters who approved this nonsense trump has been doing. And worse of all you were supposed to see what colonisation has done to South Africa and other countries and you allow Elon to colonise an already colonised country, the USA).

This is exactly how ALL leaders around the world should be acting & treating Chump-Trump. DJT only understands power, $$, & force; he’s not bright enough nor stable enough to sustain good, healthy, mutually beneficial relationships w/other free, peaceful, reasonable countries such as Canada. \n\nJust one thing Trudeau should add to his comments to Donny:\n“U claim to be a player, but I fucked Ur wife!”\n… bc we all think he did. ?

-DEAR AMERICANS ..., this video is a prime example of why the USA needs to stop depending so much on other countries for so much importing and start investing in building and start manufacturing products again in the US like it used to be and keeping our farmlands IS VERY IMPORTANT also. Now you see the other side to alot of what's going on , it's important for America as a whole. If you don't understand why manufacturing/ farming/ and investing into some independence like other countries is important ....now you know!!! . Yes their are always gonna be trades and we need them also, But USA is like totally relying on other countries for everything!! We have nothing to offer of value anymore as a country or trade!! \n\n Hopefully the leaders in charge work with these trade countries and they come to fair agreements in fairness and the best intrest of Canada and USA .

Canada should not be too economically dependent on the United States.Canada must have a strong economic position with countries around the world.The United States no longer considers Canada a friend.The United States under the leadership of a man who is arrogant and wants to do whatever he wants.The United States should not have arrogant leaders destroying its allies.Trump is just a piece of rotten wood that will be melted by water.The United States should not let a piece of wood lead the country..

I think Trudeau might be a Hero for Americans. In our darkest hour, we need a Hero now more than ever. Thank you for standing up to the ignorant dictator wannabe that the lowest denominator of Americans… racist, uneducated and wealthy pigs elected him. \nWe wish you were our leader too. \nDecent hardworking reasonably intelligent Americans Thank You and we are terrified for our future and our beloved country. God Save America.

You people from XYZ are really like the EU hypocrites that all you got is words. As a Canadian, I hate Trudeau and everything his government has done to the country. I want a PM like Trump that is willing go against the entire system(deep state) and dig out all the dirt even though you're in the way of a lot of powerful people and organizations. Out of all the world leaders today, Trump is the only one with that kind of courage. Compare that to Trudeau—aside from his nice suits and polished public image, what has he actually done to improve the lives of Canadians? \nWe need a DOGE go into WHY WE ARE PAYING SO MUCH TAXES. When I was living in Vancouver, I (and many ppl) would just drive cross the border to get gas and groceries because it's just much cheaper once you're on US soil.... For years we cannot retain any talents because they would just migrate to the states because the pay is much higher with less taxes. I used to live in a bubble thinking that even though life is tough and it's harding to make a living here but at least it's more peaceful here than the States. That is not the case anymore and everything is getting worse in the past 10 years.

As an American. I don't think it was a good thing to bully other countries, especially allies and neighbors. There are other diplomatic ways to do things. I am not left or right, but I felt like Obama and Clinton had better ways with international relationships. I know our leader are trying to do their best for us Americans, and well we have been helping other countries for decades. Maybe, it is time that other countries start paying us back. I don't know why every move has to be on the media though? Especially the bullying with Zelensky? They could have talked over it without showing it to the whole world. What do yo guys think? Was that even necessary?

Anyone of sound mind, a leader, a government would want to continue to strengthen relationships with it's neighbors BUT instead, deliberately dismantle it and let it's citizens in both countries pay the price. And once again dirty filthy politicians are not looking out for it's citizens. Why are people in power so hell bent on ruining the world?

Hey Trump Dummies...this is what a Level-headed LEADER, that Cares for his country, looks like.

Dumb Trump. I regret voting him. He thinks he can scare away other country leaders by using tariff as strategy. What a fool! Is he not realizing it will back fire by causing these countries to do the same on US?

We hear leaders of other countries who speak like Statesmen but Trump speaks like an idiot who is backed by clowns in his weird administration.

Trudeau is the epitome of what a failed leader looks like for a country. He is a joke and Canadians don’t want him.

VERY WELL SAID SIR, APPRECIATE YOUR CLEAR PLAN AND THE RATIONAL- IT IS SO SAD THAT WE HAVE SOMEONE WHO EEMS TO BE A JOKE- CLEARLY NO JUSTIFICATIO N IT WAS CLEAR FROM BEGINING IT IS APERSONAL GAIN NOT COUNTRY- NO FENTANOL- IT IS A JOKE THAT WE CANT EVE THINK A LEADER WILL USE AS EXCUSE

Trudeau is a great Leader. I pray that Ttump will be charged with Treason for being a Traitor to our country, the U.S. I ? pray that God will bring us a Leader whom we can trust, and who loves our country and the Constitution.

When the leader of another country is more concerned for us US citizens than our own government, we have a serious problem.

Sounds like a leader of a civilized country. not some buffoon like Trump.

Just because he is speaking nicely scripted it doesn’t mean he is a good leader look at the Canada it’s not that good country, what he did to you during Covid . You need to choose different leader for better Canada ??.

Despite Canada has some issues within the country, but your leader is much better than your neighbour. Kudos to Justin! What a great speech?

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!

Imagine a country's leader speaking articulately for BlackRock .... shame! \nBlackRock investments in Canada = $330 billion \nBlackRock owns 47% of Ukraine territory \nand economic + financial advisors of Biden

This is a weak leader! Trudeau your country is burning and crumbling from inside. Fix your country before you start throwing jabs at the United States! You punk liberal

From Canada, and reading the comments is truly heartfelt. Trudeau gets a pretty polarizing reputation in our country, but to know the world sees him as more reputable and more of a leader makes me proud to be Canadian and to stay positive in these chaotic times. Thank you

This is what an actual leader sounds like and behaves. And I as a US citizen stand by this man, his words and his country's response to our hot mess of a government. We're going to suffer, but at this point I think we deserve every bit of it because our willful ignorance has thrown the entire planet into a tailspin of disaster. My genuine hope is that every single other democratic country turn its back on us immediately. Let the empire fall once and for all.

It must be nice having a competent, serious, intelligent leader represent your country to the world. Americans wouldn't know what that feels like.

Man, this guy is really good. That's the speech and knowledge a country leader should have.

Imagine that. A country's leader who is articulate and measured in his actions. He can take over the US as a Canadian territory as far as I'm concerned.

So much respect for you, sir. Showing what a real leader is supposed to act like. be like. My one great country has been taken over by right wing extremists. Put into power by my fellow Americans who have just lost their way. Bought into all the hate that he has brought. This American has always thought of Canada as a major friend. And will continue to do so. This American stands with Canada I stand with Ukraine I stand against Putin and always will.

Don't be fooled by this wimp my American friends. Trudeau is a weasel and has killed Canada. I'm not a fan of Trump but he still has seen thru this bum and we deserve what we're getting because of his neglect and Woke policies for the last 10 years. he's as corrupt as a politician can get. So please wait til we get a leader in Canada that will get us back to a REAL partner with the US. An election is gonna happen real soon that will put a Prime Minister in place that will address the concerns of both of our countries and get things back to normal.....and it won't be Mark Carney!!!!!

We believe Canadian leaders like Mr. Trudeau. As Americans,we have been abused for years by Trump,who is his own kind of terrorist, using deceit,treachery and cruelty. Millions of us are resisting,protesting and praying to restore a place among our allies in other countries and in the United States.

OK people, remember the last 9 years. He is the same guy who has ruined the country. Go ahead vote Liberal and the lies and graft and waste continue. He is an actor playing his role. No substance behind him. He is still the most hated and inefficient leader we have ever had.

No respect to other country leader is very mature and diplomatic ?

Canadian here. Trudeau, well said and I hope the other global leaders stand up to Donald. To my American friends- it’s time you stand up and show your disapproval for the direction Donald is taking. This is and will be a significant set back in your security and the trust other countries have in America. Stand up, Speak up!

I get it Trudeau! Our leader is a stupid f***ing traitor! I hope you're country can forgive the U.S. once he leaves office. If he will ever leave...

This is a true leader, defend your country and stand with your people

Prime minister we know our leader(not) could care less about the citizens ofUS .it was all about staying out of jail period. We know if it comes out of his mouth it’s a lie. I apologize to your country. Would you like to annex California just asking only for four years.

uk will trade with canada no problem and ukraine \nfrom a scot cant see the canadians backing down \nMinister Justin Trudea what a leader first time i have ever listened closely to this guy top man\nam sure the people in america in shock what is happening with their country

9:25 How disrespectful can you be to cut of a country leaders speach just because YOU IDIOTS NEVER CARED TO LEARN A SECOND LANGUAGE? What is wrong with you?

I'm a 71 yr old woman. I'm crying! To listen to a leader who is coherent and articulate is foreign as of late. I haven't slept a full night since he came into office. I'm ashamed of the people in the country that are disgusting brainwashed maganuts. My daughter in law & her family are from Montreal. We stand with Canada!! You should impose a 30% counter tariff! America is dying because of that orange nazi & his group of nazi clowns. God bless Canada, Ukraine, Israel & may He save America!!?

I feel sad and embarrassed ? I once was proud of our Country. This is the first time we are having trouble with our own allies. Make this make sense ?This Canadian leader is articulate and ? correct.

From Camada\nHe leads the most corrupt government we have ever had.\nHe is complete narcissistic lying Sweer talker.\nOver 35 members of the party have left and are not seeking re-election.\nWe have the lowest dollar strength, doubled housing cost, high inflation.\nHe has added a carbon tax which makes everything more expensive and is raised every years. \nThey called a snap election during the pandemic and have given them s over 6 raises from 2020 to 2025.\nAlmost 80% over the country wanted an election and a large number of his party members wanted him to step down.\nSince then he has prorogued parliament for their own interest while intending to resign and find a new part leader.\nWhen citizens from his own country rebelled and protested against his authoritarian overreaching governance he froze thie bank accounts and call an emergency and had them removed.\nWe have the highest number of homeless we have ever had.\nTax payers pay for drug addicts safe supply.\nAnd on and on.

trump is not world leader he is like a greedy small country politics

I support Canada and their citizens and their leaders. My U.S. country is the core problems.

Spoken eloquently like a goddamn leader. My country is a joke now

And that folks, is what the leader of a country should sound like.

Imagine a country's leader speaking articulately for BlackRock .... shame! \nBlackRock investments in Canada = $330 billion \nBlackRock owns 47% of Ukraine territory \nand economic + financial advisors of Biden
