Where are the people who voted him? Let me guess, hiding underneath a rock. Must be so embarrassed for voting for that clown. Trump is all about freedom of speech. Stand up and protest this fool. He will sell out the American people to Putin. As a Canadian thank you world for all the support. We all have a duty to fight evil. Donald is the devil in sheeps clothing.

You know I'm so sorry this idiot did this to you when I'm from the United States and I'm really sorry you're right the world's going to go crazy and it's going to be the United States it's going to pay for it and you know maybe one day we can all move to Canada where we can have a better life than to Trump's out of office if he doesn't become a dictator you never know what could happen in life he already is a dictator I finally got away from all that and we all came in the United States for peace not for what we're going through right now I'm sorry Canada sorry Mexico I'm sorry the rest of the world but I voted the right way and other people voted the wrong way and some people are understanding what they did and some people are still sticking by what they did so hopefully somewhere else could be some peace for some Americans in some way or another

This is the what Trump and his voters has brought on America and it is likely to get worse. So MAGA Trump supporters is this what you want, is this what you voted for, now you know what you should have known before you voted for Russian’s puppet.

Americans voted for it and you GOT IT! THIS is unbelievable! The America with no friends! :( Canada's leader is smart, strong, brave, handsome and they are super lucky to have someone like him. This is NOT going to end well. :(

To all Americans, is this really what you signed up for when you voted for Trump?

This is not America, this is a white house full of thieving greedy buffoons, how did this fool get back in office, thank Elon for all his help and for those of you that actually voted for this shit show

Absolutely!!!!!!! This is what YOU voted for. Sincerely, The 92% Club 7:49. The plain and simple message of a L-E-A-D-E-R??? 18:53 WAIT!!! This election was not about the economy it was about the 'isims'....racism, classicism, sexisism.

Prime Minister, I have not voted for you three times. I have not really agreed with your policies since you came to power. I have even thought that you did not know when to make a 'dignified departure. And now today when you have literally five days left before you step off the dais for good, I listen to you and am proud. This is what a leader does and says and I give you my respect and thanks as a fellow Canadian.

I'm American...I love Canada! I have many friends there ! Thank you for standing up for Canada and actually for standing up for innocent Americans like me who never voted for this monster we have now as a president! I'm 50 and I've never ever seen anyone like the administration we have now ! My parents and my grandparents would be ashamed of Donald Trump especially my grandfather who was a world War 2 vet who received a purple heart award ! Shame on you Donald

Not my government. It's a coup. They are letting the swamp in and dismantling government and our rights, inch by inch. This is what the cult 47 have voted for. To be aligned with Russia is atrocious! I'm not a rich white guy, so I will always be looking over my shoulder. Who will be left to stand up for you when they come? Oh, and I love you Canada! I wish my grandparents would've stayed there after marriage instead of moving back to the Ultra Swamp (US).

Where are the voters who voted for that orange asshole? You are the ones who will suffer significantly. Where are you now? Your damn country is dying a slow death, and it needs you to save it from this dictatorship. Where the fuck are you republican voters?

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am sorry President Trump's irresponsible ideas and choices affect so many negatively which includes you and your Canadians, and me and my Americans, as well as so many other. He should be ashamed of himself, but we all know that a narcissist feels only joy in hurting others. I worry every day, not just for the people of the United States of America, but also for all people around the world affected by this horrible man. I stand up and speak up with the hope that it makes a difference. Those I know are doing the same. I have heard so many republicans that voted for Trump, so very sorry now that they did. His irrational behavior is worthy of impeachment. Your speech, Prime Minister Trudeau, was honest and sincere and I appreciate your being so candid. I wish President Trump and Vice President Vance had the character you have. Best Wishes to you and the People of Canada, we have been friends for a long time and I would love to continue this friendship. Remember there are Americans here that appreciate you and your country.

Trump is making all sane Americans side with countries other than our own. We absolutely suck right now. We should be apologizing daily for what you-who-voted-for-this did to our credibility as a national ally.

77 million citizens of the USA VOLUNTARILY voted for chaos, incompetence, corruption, and the dismantling of their own democracy. Thank you to this massive army of morons that ate up populism. Good luck with your choice.

So all you folks who voted for trump I ask you are we great again yet man how could we have messed this up y'all knew y'all knew who you were voting for and still you did it anyway SHAME ON Y'ALL

You sound so normal and understandable. How I wish we had that right now. I never voted for Rump and it didn't matter. I don't know how we to fix this. His supporters are completely brainwashed and getting literally different information. The US needs help.

As an American, I'm sorry to Canada and those of us who didn't vote for Trump. We don't deserve this and the ones who voted for him, you need to repent and wonder if it was really worth it. This mess is just the beginning. God help us!

I voted for this and Canada is crying they don't have the tax payer teet anymore and guess what, now you can figure it out for yourselves.

I am Canadian, and I want to speak to the USA, as a concerned citizen who valued the relationship that we once had between our two countries: please realize that we do NOT want to declare this as any form of “attack”, that these are solely defensive measures against your current administration’s lack of respect towards us as a people and as a country. \n\nPlease rest assured that we KNOW that not all of you voted for Trump, that there are those of you who realize what your current president is truly doing and do not support it. This is NOT about fentanyl. This NOT about money and how much each country was giving whom. We had a respectable trade deal that we were following, previously signed by Trump. We have always had a positive relationship together, business-wise and friendship-wise. Please also realize that, once your administration is no longer in control of our narratives in such a destructive manner, or it gets replaced by one that reverses this destructive policy, we will definitely reconsider our former relationship and we will work towards rebuilding it. \n\nIt is unfortunate for both sides here. We are aware of that. But “Canada Strong” is our way to remain forever a sovereign and free nation. Nothing more, nothing less. Always remember that.

I’m an American but you do what you gotta do Trudeau, I’m not mad at cha. Americans voted for this douchebag so no need to worry about Americans they got exactly what they wanted.

Well said PM Trudeau. Scrap those border plan billions and the Fentanyl Czar. If the Amer-I-can border is such a worry for this embarrassment of a USA administration (worst in history and that is saying a lot), then let them invest in border controls to keep out the overwhelming flow from our beautiful country of fentanyl and illegal immigrants that DOESN’T exist. This is hateful and Trump and those who voted for him should be ashamed. Shame on you. We will not visit your country, we will not buy your products…you are no neighbours of ours (yes, we spell neighbours with “our”…). Trump is hateful.

To everyone that voted for Donald...look at what you've done to America and others around the world. History will remember this. When you go broke you'll only have yourself to blame. Sleep well.

Justin Tredeau is such a gentleman. So intelligent. I'm sorry this is happening. I voted for Harris and am brokenhearted still. Trump isn't intelligent ?. I can tell you the vast majority of Americans cannot stand this poor excuse for a human being. I would leave the states but I am not well enough sadly. We want to get Trump and his synchophants out of the Whitehouse. Pray with us and for us that we can do this. Much love to Canada ?? ❤️.

To all the Trumpers; you voted for this. Higher prices for most goods and some services.

Mr. Trudeau, as an American who does not support this American president, we are doing everything we can to fight our own president and his destructive policies. He is a criminal and a liar, and is unsupportable. I'm sorry so many of our people voted for this fraud of an administration. He plans to gut the US and steal as much money as possible before doing I know not what else. We are sick with worry and concern for ourselves. We hope we can sort this out before it destroys us entirely. Americans supporting this megalomaniac are fools.\n\nMr. Trudeau, thank you for your words.

All those who voted for Trump gather here, don’t complain now this is exactly what you guys voted for…?

Remember, lunatic MAGA voters voted for this. They were told this would happen and they refused to listen. Bunch of bigoted racist hateful assholes who ruined the American economy and its trade relations with its allies. Just know that tariffs are the least of your problems. The sentiment from across all American “former” allies is to completely boycott American goods and services. And that is not going away regardless of whether tariffs on either side are dropped. You want fascism, good for you. The rest of then sane west ain’t with you. Get rid of your pro Putin fascist Nazi saluting government, then we might be open for negotiations.

The President of the United States is trying to destroy America economically in my opinion. Don’t take it personal Canada. He’s fired over 20,000 people from their jobs with absolute disregard in disrespect. He left to get rid of which employed 7000 people! Trump led the charge to get rid of TikTok and then he left Office and it happened but he’s the one who started it all 7000 people lost their job jobs. He’s cutting Services to all American people with all these job losses and he doesn’t care!! He just cares about his wife, Elon, and making America white again! To start trade, wars is crazy when we’re just recovering economically from the pandemic, but he doesn’t care because being the president has made him rich because he breaks every law!! I’m so sorry Canada that we have so many idiots in this country that voted for this man because they’re racist and they wanna make America white again. It’s not about making America great it’s about making it white. Unless you do one of those so-called what he calls black jobs. Don’t really need to explain anymore than that. Either know some history or don’t. Hopefully this idiot will either change his mind when he realize what a catastrophe he’s caused or he’ll be gone soon!! From an American, who did not vote for Trump and never would vote for Trump with good reason!!

We don’t want this! Wake up America! I voted for her. These are sad times in America. Shameful. Thank you CNN.

This is what y'all voted for. IDK what to tell you. It sucks to see... unless you're GOP, then you lack the empathy for any of this to even register.

Good for Canada. Do what you gotta do. Not all Americans voted for this scumbag

Wow! I have great respect for all the countries coming together as a whole. It's a shame we have such a lousy worthless President. By the way did you MAGA nut jobs hear what a real leader sounds like, it's Trudeau not your lunatic President you voted for. Trump would rather destroy his own country instead of bring it together. That's dictatorship not a great leader. We need to get rid of him before this gets worse or it's too late and he refuses to leave.

This is exactly what Trump wants to destroy America!!!! to bring on techtocracy or maybe just to make his allies in Russia happy.. It's either that or he is the dumbest president in American history... I've never understood why anybody thought that he gave a damn about anybody but himself or was capable of doing anything that would benefit the American people. But here we are.. there was voter suppression at the very least. It's hard to know what to believe about all that. But I do know many people regardless voted for him. 30% did not vote. Which I do understand. As there is a genocide happening.. but at this point, I have to believe that even amongst the majority of his supporters he is not supported by the majority, major majority of the United States. The republican Congress has shown their true colors of being anti-constitutional . But they are redeemable. Do the right thing if you are in government if you have any power at all, stand up. And for the rest of us, Americans including the ones that voted for Trump let your voices be heard. Before we become something similar to Russia. And I go to prison for this comment.

As an American I am SO HAPPY you are standing up to this craziness! Don’t back down!! And those who voted for this in the US will feel what they have done. Keep going Canada ??

Remember, you voted for this . Shame on you . Shame on us .

I have voted for Trump 3 times. Canada has over charged the USA through tariffs for years. I know you will miss the money but just suck it up like we have had to do. Pres Trump is for the American ppl and all his decisions are directed that way. For the ppl from our country that have commented on this statement and love Canada move there, right away.

Trump is a total disaster for all Americans except the $Billionaires. But it wasn't the $Billionaires who voted Trump into office, it was the millions of MAGA Morons, the very people who are now losing their jobs in thousands as Musk takes an axe to everything. Tariffs on America's main trading partners means that the American consumers, many of them MAGA Morons, are going to be hit a lot harder in the pocket as prices on their goods rocket. I only feel sorry for the Americans, who saw this coming and voted against Trump. For all the MAGA Morons, don't cry help, you brought this on yourself !!! Here in the UK we support Canada 100% !!!

You voted for this. F around and find out.

The only they is Trump and the dumbasshats that voted him in office. Now when our vehicles cost going up, fuel, grocery, utilities. Basically everything we rely on because of this orange peel that is good because Elon bought him. Then the asshats will cry foul. Y’all voted him in office because he promised you cheaper eggs. Well a basic dozen of eggs is $7 and a ends about to be paying that for fuel, not to mention many of our states electricity is out of Canada.

Prime Minister, a lot of us, including myself, never voted for this chaos. You do what you need to do to counter this. I for one admire Canada very much. Wish I could move to Canada.

I know many americans voted for trump but this action is trump voting against the american people. I mean do you guys really think Putin is a 'good' guy? You guys have to get trump out of there he wants to destroy america.

American here. Family moved to Canada ?? after American Revolutionary War (yep family was a royalist). Stayed in Oh Canada for over 100 years. As an American ?? (country I love) - I stand with Canada ?? even though it will cost me & other lower / middle classes $$$$. Not Canada’s fault. It is the fault of the orange ? man who is a pretender POTUS. A man who kisses Putin’s ring. A man who protects billionaires & trillionaires… not the majority of U.S. Americans. He doesn’t care about the grossly misguided people who voted for him - they are finding out now! Stay Strong Canada ??! Thank you for standing up to this American Bully! So many of us are ashamed, disgusted, and so sorry! ❤??❤??

Americans in Cage under Trump administration, this you voted for

From America, the world really acts like we owe them something.\n\nWe get called imperialists when we help, cowards and weaklings when we don’t, we get reprimanded and shit on about how we should get our nose out of everyone’s business. The rest of the world seems to have a hate boner for the US yet can’t even be bothered to figure out how to not start new world wars, can’t even be bothered to take in and handle their own refugees, can’t even be bothered to help your own people.\n\nWe The People are growing real tired of our treatment on the world stage. Furthermore, we have our own issues. We have to focus on our own country and people, because as it stands many of us are struggling to figure out how to pay rent without picking up 2nd jobs or side hussle’s. Please understand this, we voted for Donald Trump. Flaws and all. He didn’t cheat or steal his way in. He isn’t a threat to democracy, or the stability of Europe. He’s and American president for America and if any non Americans wanna take issue with that. Then come get your citizenship and vote for it, but until then, stop crying about what America is doing and focus on your own country. Who knows, if you do your own country might actually be notable enough for you to understand my frustrations :)

Americans, you voted for this idiot. Now, you will see and feel the consequences for your uneducated votes. We Canadians will never back down from a fight. We all stand united.

As a life-long Ameri an citizen, I 100% stand with Canada. \nThe idiots that voted for Trump,your orange messiah, I really hope you go broke and homeless because you're just as guilty as he is. So be proud because you voted him into office knowing how his first term was and that he is a 34 time CONVICTED felon. And YOU voted this back into office. You worship Trump like he is your messiah ,your god,your idol so when WW3 is declared against America and his little friend Putin will all be a trap to have Trump assassinated, I hope you stand around and claim this on your shoulders then because again, YOU have done this.

As a US Citizen, we deserve all of the worst that's coming. Not all of us voted for the Orange Turd, but unfortunately this is the situation we're in. I'm rooting for you Canada.

How many people grew up in Divorced families with arguments and name calling and all the insults? I’m just wondering because the way our president in America is acting along with JD Vance and all the MAGA politicians they all act like those parents with the constant negativity and verbal abuse that all the crap that they put the American people through!!! How many times has our country gone through anything serious within or outside of our country? I am 62 years old and I can tell you there has been many, but we have never had a president / vice president and all the politicians on one party sit there and act the way these IDIOTS act! I was just thinking about this because of the constant stress I feel on a daily basis with this administration! It is a public disgrace as our trailer trash parents fight in public! Makes you want to run away!! I cannot stand the people responsible for what we are experiencing in our country right now! I blame Trump, Musk and all those American that voted for these idiots!! F” off!!

Talking to all the conservative US citizens; THIS is a great leader that puts his people first. Sadly, you voted for the opposite.
