It's really funny watching him try to reason with Americans as if they're civilized individuals. I guess he's doing the right thing by being tactful. But reasoning with Americans is a waste of time.

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.

Trudeau is an idiot king. This speech from a guy that has been pushing for the legalization of hard drugs across Canada and leaving our borders wide open. He has pissed away Canada’s prosperity on wasteful spending and his climate agenda. This buffoon has zero credibility. He is an actor and puts in a good show. I’ll give him that. Mr tough guy. He is laughable. We need a real leader in Canada.

Nah. This won't affect the Trumpets. They're accustomed to poverty. That's why they hate everyone else so much. Those who they think took what they are entitled with because they were here first or because the color of their skin. That's why they chose a false saviour with his lies that benefits them. They will be fine. The trash is ok with being treated like waste.

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME JUSTIN TRUMP'S IQ IS TOO LOW TO UNDERSTAND HE HAS NO MORALS NO VALUES AND NO SOUL HE'S AN IDIOT

Thanks for all this wasteful nonsense Trump voters!

AMERICANS... your words here are wasted!! Your ACTION is REQUIRED!!!

You want us to pull together, I GUESS YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE WASTED CANADA'S BILLIONS OF DOLLARS YOUR A COMPLETE FOOL.

U people R idiots. Put effort into securing your borders and there wouldn’t be a need for tariffs. Americans are tired of wasteful spending. U got away with it with sleepy joe, but those days are over.

I’m not even American, but any American that doesn’t support Trump, is simply a brainwashed waste of space. Makes me sick.

Well Trudeau. Your 10 wasted years of blowing money and stupid policies have big part in this happening. Nobody around the world likes you.

It’s truly unbelievable how gullible people can be, and I’m not saying this to be cruel, this is just the straight truth. Justin Trudeau is a proven liar and an opportunist, plain and simple. Time and time again, he’s shown that he’ll say whatever fits his agenda, no matter how dishonest or manipulative. He’s openly embraced and pushed harmful, nonsensical ideologies, including radical transgender policies aimed at children. Without question, he’s been the most damaging Prime Minister in Canadian history. Under his leadership, Canada isn’t just struggling, it’s circling the drain. That speech everyone’s praising — he didn’t even write it. It’s all just another performance, another chance to prop up his fake image. The truth is, Trudeau has done far more harm to this country than good, and that’s the reality whether people want to admit it or not.\n\nAnd for all the Trump haters out there, it’s incredible, actually baffling, how nobody seems to be talking about the billions and billions of taxpayer dollars that have been completely wasted — just vanished into thin air. You don’t hear a word about that. It’s unbelievable. Meanwhile, America’s borders were secure under Trump, but you never hear about that either. And let’s not forget, men weren’t allowed to compete against women in sports, which should be common sense, but somehow even that’s controversial now. The silence on all of it is staggering. It’s absolute insanity.

I’ve said it a million times. Waste of time to even reason with Trump communists and totalitarian ideas. Just ask anyone now who is 55 years old or older and grew up in - say - Eastern Europe or the Soviet Union. These commies will tell you anything … black is white, what you see it’s not what we see, it’s just not to be reasoned with. Exactly like the Canadian PM says, just trust him! They did all they had been asked to do and now the US gov says “no, you didn’t, no it’s not enough”. It’s a communist lie. If Canada did twice as much as needed, they would have said the same, lame lies. ? Lastly, this is all from the Soviet playbook, way before Putin and it’s still their “playbook”.

He's wasting his breath. Trump supporters, JD and Trump himself, are too dimwitted. They are bullies, and all they understand is anger and fighting.\n\nIt almost seems as if Trump wants Canada and Mexico to cave by sending their economy into a recession. Basically, saying let's have a recession war and see who blinks first.\n\nCalling Trump smart is a stretch.

Cnn just lost me when referencing peter navaro.i guess that is why I wont waste my sanity with CNN

As eloquent and dignified Mr. Trudeau is here, and how rational his response is, it's wasted breath. You can't reason with an entitled child. We tried to reason with the children that were voting for him and it fell on deaf ears. He's no different. They know it all, all while knowing absolutely nothing. There's no changing their minds. I hope with all of my being that this hits those who support him the hardest and brings them significant financial pain. Elections have consequences and their vote needs consequences too. \n\nIn my 56 years, I've never been embarrassed to be an American. Thanks Donald, I now am. You did that.

We as Americans need to get away from taking care of the world. Its our country and its our money that the Democrats are wasting to make the rich richer. \nThat's the Democrats way and we need to get away from it before its too late.

Trudeau its time Canada starts innovating, extracting the loads of natural resources we have, trim down the government and corrupt waste, and use carbon tax money to Produce our own Green energy. Electric cars, buses, rail, solar. Were is the billions of tax and carbon tax going. Our infostructure is piss poor, high utility bills, food, cost of living and housing is unaffordable

imagine if trump actually lives another 4 years? what will America look like? 3rd world waste land?

You won’t break our souls Donald.\nSuch a traitor to all of America & and a world wide menace. Makes me so sad for us and for this world. Congress you can’t ignore this! Act accordingly and remove the toxic waste by impeachment before it’s too late.

Kevin, the RCMP that blocked Trudeaus investigations. Kevin the fentanyl Czar - to do what? Ensure inventory is high in Canada? Kevin another friend and Trudeau Foundation supporter. YUP! another wasted salary.

I think the tarrifs are good. it bring local products back to our own county. also supporting local farmers and local manufacturing creating job in our home country we need to throw out trudaue and get rid of waste war in supporting in Ukraine. Im pretty happy to see more local food in my groceries stores.

I'm very happy to see a world leader openly stand up to the Orange Menace, I hope even more allies do the same and the Trumptards that voted for him see just how ignorant they were to waste their vote and screw the rest of us that voted the Right way.

It was not about fetanyl. Please Trudeau. Don't waste your time on this hack of a president. He is jealous of you. You have good hair and Melania is smitten. That's all. He is that petty.

As an American, I am totally appalled that Donald Trump is our elected president putting himself & his selfish agenda ahead of the American people. Allowing people like Elon Musk, who is not a government employee to run amok in this country doing what he pleases when he pleases under the guise of ridding our country of wasteful spending, without any type of oversight. I am appalled at the GOP that refuses to stand up to Trump for the people they swore an oath to serve faithfully because they are so afraid of what Trump will do to them if they don't bow down and do his bidding. Shame on every doggone one of you for putting yourselves first before our great country. I am appalled of all of the people who voted for Trump, you are all going to find out. This isn't some tv reality show, and we all deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. Choosing to turn your back on our friends and ally's isn't going to go well and the American people are going to suffer because of it.

UK citizen here. Stay strong, Canada. I have always wanted to visit Canada. Even though i have relatives in Alabama, I won't be wasting my money going there again and will be visiting your beautiful country

Never let a good crisis go to waste

Canadians are smart enough not to waste our time seeking any reasonable discourse or mutual respect from lying welchers like Donald Jackass Trump. Same reason Zelensky won't waste his time seeking a ceasefire agreement with Vladimir Putin.

U r wasting ur time taking about drugs. This won’t help.

Trump supports a dictator who lets children and babies die and wants to wipe out an entire country. He is opposing all of his allies for Putin. Putin will get money again. He is sacrificing parts of Ukraine and Putin has no need to fear punishment. Many countries were allies of the USA. We fully supported the USA after September 11th. People in the EU also died for you! I liked the USA very much, I spent my vacation there but I will not do that anymore, I will no longer buy American products. A dictator is being supported here and all our help to Ukraine for the past 3. years will be wasted! Trump will also restructure the USA so that he is the only king and no one controls him anymore. He want rich russians oligarch in the USA...That is how I think and feel... he s like Biff in back to the future when he owns all...From Germany! Thank You Canada❤.. \n\nI send love and recognition to every US American who did not vote for this president and who is for democracy and human rights. ❤️

Who even cares what trump's 'response' is?? It'll just be more lies and propaganda, and we've heard it all before. I wouldn't waste my time. It's all about a cash-grab for him and Elon...that's what it's always all about...how can I grift money off my taxpayers and abuse my position of power for 4 years to do so. He's just a callous POS.

As an American, did that weasel Trudeau just threaten us?! Um, he better backstep while he still has time. Canada has NO product that we Americans cannot replace with an American made one in a matter of months. Fertilizer is an easy one, Our farmers just need to go back to using natural animal/yuman waste which is ecactly what used to be done. It even saves farmers billions $ because they create a use for waste they now pay to have to process for removal. Lumber and products are also an easy fix. We Americans have millions of acres of timber that actually NEEDS regular harvest to reduce the forest fires that plague us yearly. The list goes on, and not a single item cannot be MADE IN AMERICA that we currently get from Canada.

Trudeau is wasting his time, his statement was too complicated for Trump to understand, he should have used flash cards for Donald.

this bloke is a fool , the woke nonsense and his stand with EU in conflict with russia is foolish at best . people are very emotional in their comments , take all that away and look at the facts leading up to all this , why trump was voted in , all the government waste they are uncovering , the social engineering under the dems through USAID , i stand with trump and what he is trying to undo.

If our military insiders know that Trump is compromised by Putin, why are they not doing their duty to protect us from enemies both foreign and domestic? Are they waiting for Trump to do so much damage that his approval rating reaches a specific low before acting, or are they useless to protect us? I hope it's not the latter, considering how much tax payer money has gone into the US military over the deades. Talk about waste and abuse.

Mr. Trudeau, don't waste time talking to Trump, no psychiatrist can help him or those who voted for him anymore.

Sorry but us middle class Americans are sick and tired of wasting OUR hard earned money.

Trudeau is wasting his words and time. U can't reason with a felon and a rapist.

Respect from Australia, this is exactly what Canada should do, stand up to this bully. I don't think you should bother trying to negotiate with him, Trump is a liar and a fool and talking to him is a waste of time, he's too stupid to understand. When the US slaps you, slap them back. I sincerely hope to see Mexico respond in the same way, slap Trump back twice as hard.\n\nIf the US wants to go kissing Putins ass, go on, but don't try to force the rest of us to kiss his ass with you.\nIf the US wants to find savings in government #DefundElonMusk a filthy rich man receiving government aid, he's sucked up $38 billion, that's government waste in the extreme.

Don't waste your breath on trump. He's a Russian asset. Full stop.

Im seriously considering moving to Canada and as US citizen let me personally apolgize for the other 1/2 of this country who voted for this megalomanic fucking waste of space and breath

I can’t stand listening to Dr. Lloyd. What do you waste of skin

CNN, why in the world do you waste our time telling us what we just saw and heard? Anyway, I'm very nervous, if not down right scared, to watch the United States devolve into a fascist regime. It feels terrorists now hold our government hostage. For the first time in my life, I'm embarrassed and ashamed to be an American.

The trade war that's nothing to do with Rusia war, the trade war is related with your incompetent roll letting drugs pouring by the border from China period and the Rusia war it's because with not gonna be supporting the war that you and Europe wants with our MONEY. Two different topics, we don't need your stuff and your country will lose more than us and your crying is just a because you don't want be traded with 25 %. You are talking to the minority of the American people because the majority voted Trump so your speech it's a wasting time for me

We have a president who cares abour the economic state of our country and the morale of its blue collar worker. Our country has been ripped off by people abroad and internally. This is pressure on all governments we do business with for equal trade. We are forcing countries to become more self reliant. Each country needs to become the greatest version of itself unfettered by people dictating laws that enrich themselves at the behest of its citizens. We elected trump to tear down the old, fix the waste, weed out the greedy players taht dish out our money and get kickbacks. Thats all. America is about to become super self reliant and bring back an early 1900s boom. We can no longer be the piggy bank of the world.

Anti American!!! Breaking up with America - Wow so biased CNN...in your president's eyes, fake news! Let's get real -American CNN...look at the facts!!! Peovide the facts...describe the facts ..Canada have provided the facts...shame on you where is your moral courage? A wasted college education here - selling yourselves to the devil- shame on you CNN\nLet's watch on world and see how this American debacle unfolds. Having aid that I love the American people ...they must step up!

As an American, it pains me to see Canada show such poise and leadership. We're wasting our lives and future hoping that our government will save us, yet it digs us deeper into ignorance and suffering.

And now that trump has done this, let’s stop wasting money on American borders and the damned yankes take care of themselfs and they own border

America first! You are wasting your breath, pretty boy?

ELON MUSK AND DONALD TRUMP ARE THE WASTE , FRAUD AND ABUSE WE NEED TO GET RID OF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
