Thank You Canada ... For The Better

THANK YOU CANADA ❤. thanks to your government and your people ❤. I wish our european leaders would be as brave and strong as the Canadians are.

I have been reading lots of comments on here and I want to say a big thank you to all the other countries that are standing with Canada ?? \nWe really appreciate it so much

did you say thank you to president trump and USA? the only thing u did right is to wear a suit. you can't dictate the tariffs of Canada on us.

Thank you Prime Minister for being a leader as opposed to what we have in America, a divider and felon. I'm sick over the current administration. I'm sorry Canada.

Thank you Canada??

Makes me so proud to be Canadian! Thank you JT. Makes me emotional listening to this. Canada is not a perfect country but we try, we try!

I think most of the world is with you Canada! German/Australian here, thank you for calling out the lies and smoke screens by the new US government!

Thank you Canada

Go Canada! EU will happily take over the trade you had with the US :) Thank you for standing with the Free world ❤\nI know Trudeau was not liked and there's political differences and discontent in other countries as well but damn is it soothing to hear politicians talk with dignity and intelligence, unlike some American top officials right now!

Thank you for separating the american people from the very small percentage of those in the White House administration behind these actions. Most americans are not in agreement with any of what's coming out of the president's office. He's lost sight of what American really stands for - and that his role, along, with those of his administration, are paid servants. Obligated to SERVE every citizen of their country - including representing and fulfilling the wishes of the people they serve. Whether they like all the people or agree with the needs of all the people. The people of our country don't want what's happening with Canada, Mexico or Ukraine. Or Russia for that matter. As an American i apologize. God bless us all!

I stand with Canada, Ukraine and all of our allies. Thank you for being a mature statesman and defending your country and its people. I am ashamed of our leaders and apologize that you have to even make this speech. ♥️

Thank you Canada, we love you. ? I’m a Californian, love Canada and appreciated your kind message. This pains me and we are so very embarrassed of what T is doing to us.

Beautiful Canada- thank you for speaking to us Americans.

BOOM! Now that’s a Leader! Thank you Canada and Trudeau. ?? + ?? = ?

Bravo! Great speech! Thank you for standing up for Truth & Common Sense, Canada! From Australia.

Bravo Justin Trudeau! Thank you for speaking out and telling the truth. Eloquent speech. I regret that our current president is turning against our longtime ally that has always stood bt our side and fought with us. This is a very sad day for America. Your speech was unfortunately cut you off when you started to speak in French. J' aurais préfereé écouter le discours en français. J'adore le Canada. J'ai peur que nous soyons en train de perdre la liberté de nos citoyons! ??

As a Briton, I would like to say thank you to Mr Trudeau for standing up to the bullies in the White House.\nI will always stand with my Commonwealth brothers in Canada. ??

Yes! Trudeau, I know this is hurting all of us. Thank you for standing against Trump. So proud of you for fighting back. Unfortunately we have to live with this jerk. He has destroyed all of us. He doesn't realize how much it is affecting the rest of the World. God Bless You and the citizens of Canada. I pray this ends soon. Stick to your beliefs. Do your best. I'm sorry to all of you for our greedy dictator. That you have to suffer because of his greediness. Not all of us believe in what he is doing.

Thank you Canada. You are the role model of how all other countries should and hopefully will react to Trumps' irrational global tariff terror.

THANK YOU ...?I STAND WITH YOU CANADA!!??

Thank you everyone from all other countries standing with Canada and praying for us. Means a lot you guys. Thank you ❤

Thank you Canada! STOP the ?

Dear Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Canada, thank you for your intelligent, eloquent, and compassionate response to this debacle. Blessings and hope to all the good, honest, and hard-working individuals in both of our countries. May love and logic prevail.

Thank you Canada for standing up against our very sad excuse for a President. I know you are doing the right thing.

God bless Canada. USA please make it right. Thank you.

Canadian here ????????!! To any Americans reading this comment, my disgust over this whole tariff situation is not on the USA, it’s not Americans, IT’S TRUMP!!! Period!!! There is no doubt millions of you are very angry and embarrassed about what he wants to do. I want our 2 nations to be friends and allies forever. Any animosity between us is just extremely pointless. \n\nI want to thank the Americans who are wishing Canada and us Canadians the best and who are totally against what Trump wants to do!!!

Proud of my Prime Minister. Handling the situation like a champ. Thank you Americans for supporting Canada, we support you as well and I sincerely hope that we will be able to solve this. Donald is such a shame for the whole world… unreal.

Great, thank you great people of Canada. Greetz from Czech republic.

Dear Canada, most of us who have half a brain, are disgusted about not only tariffs but everything else that is being destroyed. Hopefully, this will pass with upcoming Administrations. We love Canada and it's people. thank you for your patience.

I stand with Canada always. Thank you Mr Trudeau. Please keep up the message. God Bless You.

Thank you! I need to move to Canada ❤❤

Thank you everybody who is not Canadian that is supporting Canada. You really see us thank you.

I have not always been a fan of Trudeau, but I have to give it to him today. You spoke with care, adressing the issues and standing up for Canada amidst this hard time. You deserve a standing ovation. Thank you Justin. I am a proud Newfoundlander, but also Proud Canadian. Hoping that hopefully Trump will choose to work with us not against us. All of us on this continent need to work as one, helping all our neighbors.

Thank you Trudeau for standing up for your country, and doing the right thing for your people. I respect you and support Canada ❤. Trump is not a president, he’s a Felon.

Thank you Canada. ❤

Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine! Thank you Mr. Trudeau ?❤️❤️❤️ \nDonald should resign!

Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine! Thank you Mr. Trudeau ?❤️❤️❤️ \nDonald should resign!

Thank you Canada

Thank you, Canada! Sorry for our childish president.

PM Trudeau, thank you for your honesty and respect for Americans and your own Canadians. Donald does not represent America’s values. I stand with Canada ??.

Good bye America ! Canada wants nothing from you . Sad to see friends split up , ???????Thank you Trumpy!

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau! Canada stands strong and free. Thank you to all the supporting comments for Canada, appreciated so much❤️??????

The lies, the misinformation, and the senseless attacks on Canada is all we have heard and felt, so thank you for sharing the facts with the American people! Not sure why they want to get rid of this guy but he is what America needs in this moment!

I'm an American with some family ties to Canada and I'm deeply ashamed of how my government under Trump is systematically destroying it's historic relationships with almost all our allies. Trump and his cronies are only interested in the use of raw power to dominate the current geo-political reality. Thank you Trudeau for speaking so bluntly and honestly and for standing up to our bully-in-chief.

I am an American citizen and I stand with you Canada!!! Thank you for protecting yourself and those of us not blind to the very obvious corruption.

Nearly 73,000 comments in 8 hours, and so much support for Canada. As a Canadian, I am profoundly grateful, thank you all so much! We didn't want this, but we're in it with everything we've got.

Trudeau! Nobody likes you. You’re done. We want to vomit when you speak. You are a disgrace to this Country. You’ve ran our country into the gutter, killing hundreds of thousands of Canadian citizens with your reckless policies and corrupt agenda’s. Stop playing the victim you wounded narcissist. Canada deserves these tariffs. This is all on you. I pray daily that this country will be saved. The light keeps getting brighter as we inch closer to that election! Thank god for Pierre Poilievre!! And we love you Donald Trump!

I’m in tears. Mr. Trudeau, thank you for supporting the US citizens as we try to figure out what we can do to get our friends back. I’d give anything to be a Maple Leaf if I can’t have my country back. I love Canada because they’ve always welcomed me. The people are freaking amazing and kind. I love our allies because we look out for each other. Canada, Mexico, Europe, Ukraine, etc., the American people love you and don’t want this insanity - not just liberal-minded people like me, but most all of us. Love to you all!

Canada, the American people stand with you. Personally I wish that Justin Trudeau was our president! Although I have to disagree with you, Trump is not at all a smart man. In fact he is the exact opposite. He is an imbecile! Undoubtedly, he is the worse thing that has ever happened to to the United States! The people of America needs to get rid of Trump!\n\nBut thank you, Justin Trudeau, for standing up for Canada and all of your reactions is just! Continue to defend your country. You are doing an outstanding job!
