As a foreigner myself , It’s actually a pleasure listening to a political leader and actually believing what he is saying \nWell done President Trudeau \nI wish my country politicians have that professionalism level

USA, take note, this is what a proper leader sounds like.

Wow, Trump is seething with jealousy right now. This guy is everything Trump is not, young, strong and articulate. Not a weak minded simp and boot licking Russian sympathizer. I, as an American that served, can only wish our leader with this kind of integrity and character. Sadly, what we have is the worst moron his followers, like the brainwashed dolts they are, voted him to the highest office in the land, responsible for the wellbeing of this country.\nWe are doomed as a country if we don't do something to stop the orange idiot!

Trudeau is a true leader. He understands we are victims of trump. I am so ashamed and angry of what trump and his accomplices are doing. They will destroy America and attack democracy across the planet if not stopped

This is a Prime Minister. What a leader!

Hey Little Donnie,take note! This is what a leader looks and sounds like. Note how he behaves! \nBTW, he’s not orange, and flailing his hands around like a dumb Asss!\n\nAmerican here from Nashville TN!

Sad day for both sides. this incompetent man being in the office 30 days he’s creating all this chaos. He doesn’t know how to work with diplomacy and work with people who know what they are doing. Clearly he doesn’t & this is how a leader of country speaks. Lord help us what’s next, every day is some new disaster.

That's what a leader sound like!! I'm an American Veteran but as long as trump and all that trash he brung to the WH I will never stand with America except in shame...

Hmmm this must be what its like when a Countries leader shows how its done....Talking about generational border controll using real available tech even!?? Im sure Actuall WALLS maybe involved... Not a FENCE WITH HOLES IN IT!!!

As an American, I wholeheartedly support Canada. This is what a mature, intelligent LEADER looks like.?? ❤

American's that's what a leader sounds like!

I am Canadian and I am envious of Americans because you have a leader who can stand for you guys, Canada’s economy has been suffering with his leadership even before Trump was elected but he is supporting /funding war , giving out tax payers to refugees he has been bringing who don’t contribute to tax. Hear him more concerned to Americans as opposed to announcing to us Canadians what is his plan for Canada to address tariff! Let USA do their thing , improve your leadership and don’t rely on other countries plans/decisions, unfortunately we are affected but it’s your job to make strategies of how you would address that. Dont blame Trump you could have thought of plans prior implementation

What a wonderful human being and leader Trudeau is. Australia makes the best wine in the world. We would be more than happy to fill in the gaps the US will be leaving. ?? ??

The Canadian leader is speaking to the American people out of concern. Look at what a whole lot of uninformed folks have done. Once you hear this you will understand the hell we will wake up to. Tariffs to America by China, Mexico, Canada. Making us isolationist joining hand with Putin. Oh my God

This is what a real leader looks like. This is an intelligent, serious person.

This is what a LEADER looks like!!! You can understand every word he says. Not like Trump, who reads and sounds like Dick and Jane!!! I stand with you Canada!!!

I am moving to Canada. this is what a leader looks like. take a good look MAGA sh*ts!

Hey America!! This is what a leader of people sounds like

This is what a leader looks like.

Now that's what a leader looks like

Trudeau wants me to be a Canadian! What an intelligent and articulate leader!!!

This is what a world leader who cares for the well being of our Country and its Citizens

What a great leader and intelligent speaker! Wow! The canadians are very lucky!

America, look what you have done. Those who voted for this demon did this. You were told this monster would destroy America. \nCanada is wonderful place with an intelligent leader. \nTrump is stupid, a wanna be Putin

Elegant. Intelligent. Accurate. This is what America needs in a leader. When are his followers going to understand his goal is to destroy. He will do nothing to help those of us not in his Millionaire Boys Club.

As a Canadian I am shocked that very few Americans seem to care at what Trump is doing to their country. It's not the tariffs on all of the US's former allies but that he has dumped its allies to appease Trumps good friend Putin. I am looking at dismay watching the US go from being the leader of the free world to just another dictatorship run by billionaires, America is Russia. It's up to you America to stop this, no one is going to come to help you. Good luck you are going to need it.

I hope my fellow Americans in the United State hear this! This is what a leader sounds like. This was POWERFUL!! I'm so embarrassed. This is completely insane. Frump, look what you're doing!!

What a speech. So refreshing to hear a leader speaking and addressing the President and the American people. All Canadian should be proud. Go ?? Canada John NZ\nJ

THIS IS A LEADER! This is how a leader should speak. Without an ounce of arrogance but full of factful compassion. Truth be told, Mr Trudeau is one of my favourite leaders of a country. He may have issues, but which leader doesn't right. Look at what Trump is doing now. Great speech, Sir. I feel so proud of ??.

Please keep in mind, that all the issues we have in Canada are because of Trudeau. He's been in power for almost a decade. The widespread drug abuse and crime is because of him being weak on policy and handing out drugs like candy paid by tax payers. More people died from fentanyl in Canada than our soldiers in WWII. That is all on his watch. He is only making these changes because of Trump. What kind of a leader is Trudeau to only become Canada first when a person from outside the country threatens him? He is a horrible leader and a traitor to the Citizens and the Country we call Canada. Regardless of what his speech is, he cannot be trusted with his globalist agenda. He has stepped down (thank goodness!!) and Canada is looking forward to having Pierre Poilievre as our PM.

This is what being a leader is all about. Giving the harsh truth.

This American, who's been proud to be one all his, life (but not so much these last few weeks)stands with Canada, Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the besieged Ukraine, and I do not support's authoritarian rule and and stupid, ego-driven economic wars with our neighbors and allies. Trudeau is what a real leader sounds like.

Why is a failed resigned tyrant of a leader making decisions on behalf of a betrayed and crippled country??? Canada has destroyed its own country for the past decade.... carbon tax triples april 1st by the way necer forget the most oppressive tax in modern history imposed by a corrupt government on its own citizens what a disgrace.

President trump is a businessman that’s what he does for his people. Sometimes being great at something is not enough for you to be a good leader . Your fellow Americans will suffer .

He’s spoken what he had to as a leader in this world. He’s got to stay as a leader

A true leader. Are Canadians sure they want him gone?\nIt’s time the rest of the civilised world turned its back on the US. We have all been lazy and relied on them taking away the need to invest in what we can do. Which is why they think they hold all the cards Let’s stop this now and all civilised nations that do not have narcissistic tyrants at the lead pull resources together with new trade deals and prove them wrong. Let them implode. It will happen. Let’s not trade with them \nStop buying Teslas too

This is what the leader of a nation sounds like! ❤

What a leader.

Preach Canada ?? Go Mr.Trudeau \nThat what a leader do

So nice to hear a national leader speak so eloquently and coherently. He did not use any bullying or condescending words. Standing for Canada and loving America. Trump is for Putin instead of America's friends. This is really sad. Wake up America! What has happened to us?

That’s what a TRUE LEADER does! Wake up Donald!!

A real leader. State the facts and let people know what the truth is. Stand tall against the USA. ?? Can't believe we are doing this to our closest ally. Smh.

He is what we call a true leader.

I think I might need to move he is a good Prime Minister I wish he wasn’t leaving the position. This s what a leader looks like instead of that clown we have for a president .

How refreshing to listen to an intelligent leader! i only take issue with him calling Trump a smart guy. Trump will never do anything but ridicule and insult Trudeau and Canada no matter what concessions Canada makes. The great thing is that Trump never had any kind of plan except to tariff the hell out of our former allies. Canada is very systematic about their tariffs against US. They are using a scalpel rather than a sledgehammer. Very smart against very stupid, childish, and undisciplined.

What a great leader what happened to you donie boy you are sopose to be for america 25+25makes 50

Trump sucks....what a shame of a leader. This will not sustain in the long run, and Trump will end up removing it, saying that fentanyl and immigration are controlled, and there is no need for the tariffs anymore

This is what a leader looks like, uniting his people. As an American I am thoroughly disheartened and mortified by Trump and Vance's behavior.

THIS is what a leader looks and sounds like. F Dump and everyone who voted for and still supports a true piece of human garbage. Apologies to humans and garbage.

HOLD UP DONT THEY HAVE TARIFFS ON US ALREADY, TRUMPS IS ONLY DOING WHAT NO OTHER LEADER WOULDNT AS LONG AS THEY WERE GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF! TRUMP DONT NEED ANYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO AMERICA BC HE PUTS US FIRST, HES TIRED OF US BEING DONE SHITTY AND THEN THEY WANNA GET UPSET WHEN HE PUTS ON THEM! CANADA TRUDEAU IS NOT VERY SMART, YALL NEED SOMEONE WHO PUTS HIS PPL FIRST BC HE ALREADY HAD 10% OF TARIFFS ON AMERICA AND THE OTHER COUNTRIES AS WELL SO HES TRYING TO GET PPL HERE TO BUILD OUR OWN FACTORIES OR THEY CAN COME WITH THERE BUSINESS AND ITS A WIN WIN BUT I UNDERSTAND Y TRUMP IS DOING THIS 100%
