Americans who are listening to\n\nCould you please tell your premier Trump\nTo quit referring to our PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU \nAs a Governor\n\nVERy DISRESPECTFUL\nBut than again it’s coming from the Biggest Dictator in the world\n\nGOD BLESS CANADA\nKEEP CANADA GREAT\nTHE GREATEST FREE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD \n✝️??✝️??✝️??✝️??

As a proud new Canadian and a born and raised Brit I think now is the time to create a new trade partnership between UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Together we have everything we need. I'd even support a free movement agreement.

??? Go Canada!! stop this Russian lap dog.\n\nWhatever happened to freedom and a pursuit of a free world?..

I was waiting for him to offer Americans a free Visa, “come live in Canada, where we take care of our people.”

Go after American retailers in Canada. Go after Walmart, Home Depot, Costco and Best Buy. We also have a plethora of American restaurants in Canada, Justin should tax them all. Don't give Canada to that lunatic Trump for free, fight dollar for dollar Justin.\n\nWe also use alot of American drilling tools, equipment and machines in oil and gas. We go after all these companies and put pressure on them. Their silence is a support for Trump!!\n\nFrom now onwards, Canada should reduce her relanance on America to a mere 20% or lower. Issues like this should inspire Canadian politicians to go global and seek partners worldwide.

Trudeau as the little boy Oliver , please sir ? , can I have some more ? Get off your f@@ken knees and represent your ( my ) country with some dignity and some balls ! CANADA !!!True and free !

GOOD ? DAY ? MATE! This is What the United ?? State's, Canada ?? and The Rest of the Free ? World get When Two Of the Biggest Narcissistic Tryant's Get Voted ? into Poeer and Control. Instability and Danger to Our National Security for Our Country ?? Canada ?? and Rest of the Free ? World. Higher Price's For All! All of the Populous Who ? Voted For These Two Narcissistic Tryant's Dictator Trump and Elon Musk. I Hope Y'all Are Happy Now! I Applaud ? Y'all! Make America ?? Weak and Isolated From the Rest of the Free ? World. Dictator Donald Trump is Just Another One of Vladimir Putin's Puppet's!

We’ve been getting screwed over by Canada for years. It was never free trade for us. It only only free for them

You morons in the comments have you forgotten how Castro's son Justin, silenced free speech, shut down your businesses, locked you out of your own bank accounts, stole money that Americans sent to help the truckers survive after Trudeau seized all their bank accounts. What has Trudeau ever done for you, ayeee??? \nKentucky here, we don't care if Canada takes our bourbon, lol, stupid reporter. Oohh, we are so scared now. Shut the front door, propaganda itch!!! Suck it !!!!

Canada puts high tariffs on our goods, but girlie-man gets mad when Trump puts a couple of tariffs on them. He forgets that the U.S. military defends Canada...Is that supposed to be free? Trying to talk tough doesn't work for girlie-man, because he's just not. He needs to just suck it up and kiss Trump's ring.

Americans take note. \nCanada has a small population. It is a trading nation. Canada does not pretend to other countries that it is a friend while behaving in treacherous ways. Your minions and hypocrites, Vice President James David Vance and Senator Lindsey Graham should also take note. \nCanada and the United States have been trading with each other for over 170 years. Circumstances and proximity made Canada rely on trading with its neighbour, the USA. In 2024, 75.9% of Canada's total exports went to the United States. \nWas it convenience or laziness that made it so, or Canadians’ trust in America being a fair partner? \nPresident Donald J Trump, you have insulted Canadians and the whole United States will harvest the consequences. \nYou had negotiated the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) calling USMCA the best deal, and recently you called your deal the worst deal. \nYou can be the Manchurian Candidate as much as you want. You seek to destroy Canada. Go ahead, do your worst. Keep being manipulated by the Putin and Musk of the world. \nThis is the last time you will use this closeness between Canada and the USA to hurt Canada this way. Does not matter how long it will take, Canada will diversify its trading practice to foolproof itself from future fools like you, elected to the oval office. \nNeighbours, Canadians will remain, there is no way of moving Canada to a different place on this planet’s map. Canada may remain an economic partner, but a close friend, you can forget it. \nThere is a motto on the licence plates of vehicles of Québec (in case you might not know Donald, it is a province of Canada, not part of your fantasy 51st state). Since 1978 the motto says: “Je me souviens”. In English it translates into “I remember”. Canadians will remember what America is doing to them.

I am annoyed with CNN for turning this into a WAFFLE Soapy...At Last Trudeau has grown BALLS and he was presenting a Polite, Rational, Understandable, Logical, Factual explanation NOT only to AMERICA BUT more so to Canada and the World that Trump is NOT actually a SMART man but rather a deranged and dangerous illiterate with NO interest other than HIS EGO...SO CNN in your wisdom you ignored Trudeau's replies to questions from the press and gave oxygen to your WAFFLE MONGERS LIGHT WEIGHT comments.\n I have never been a supporter of wishy washy Trudeau....until this polite and measured presentation by him which was brilliant as an Educational tool not only for the American People BUT also for ALL of those ALLIES in the FREE World that TRUMP has absolutely NO RESPECT for and has been singularly responsible for the FREE World ALLIES to seriously rethink their allegiances with Chaotic America due to Donald's apparently Love affair with Putin as a fellow Dictator.\n America listen up.... The U.K./Europe are cranking up their home based on their door step DEFENSE INDUSTRIES etc which will be GREAT for Europe.... BUT not so GREAT for America''s employment going SOUTH.\n I was born in 1936 in the U.K. and have first hand experience of the TORTURE Ukraine is experiencing as the RESULT of Putin INVADING Ukraine....Donald and his Attack dog Vance are dangerous illiterates.

We should all of us around the world , Canada Mexico Eu China ect boycott all together USA at once Till the Tangerine Tyran felt humiliated as Zelinsky was On that day , and please You MAGA fashists keep Your red stupid caps when you cross your border , We will treat you as you deserve as Trump treat the rest of the World , And for the others Artists , Humanists numerous good Americans come to EU or Canada whe have free healtcare that works way better that in Us , good food , culture and cool unarmed peaple to hang with . Your welcome and we know how terrible is fashisme America Rebel You !!!

Trump is a traitor to the free world! Good for you Canada.

This just shows how disconnected canada really is with the american people. We as Americans are suffering, canada gets free medical services, we have to pay for that service as well as many other services , talk about what the american people need first ..

Let's be perfectly clear, here: The United States, leaving her markets WIDE OPEN -- as if a woman flinging her legs open and apologizing if she can't 'service' everyone in the crowd -- for EIGHTY YEARS and our workers, engineers, factory builders, etc., etc., all just watching our jobs float off to other shores...is OVER.\n> As is to be expected, Trudeau is keeping up appearances. \n> About THREE-FOURTHS of Canada's exports are converted to CASH inside the United States. \n> That means JOBS for Canadians, paychecks for Christmas time and tax revenues for Ottawa.\n> Yes, the US really does need Canada. We need Mexico. (We don't need Communists like China.)\n> But we have SACRIFICED our most vital naturally-occurring need: our personal and industrial productivity and creativity. \n> The United States, thanks to Her ideas on governance and empowerment of the People, invented and created the modern world that, now, almost 8 billion people expect (maybe closer to 6 billion of the 8+). \n> We have suffered unspeakably for the past -- at least -- 50 years as more and more of our ingenuity and creativity that once fueled our production has disappeared in the name of keeping the world free.\n> Enough. \n> The world WILL change. We can either accept China's version of Soviet Communism, relinquishing all global empowerment for whatever the CCP feels like, today.\n> Or we can bite the bullet and allow the People of the United States to restore what we sacrificed for the stability of a free world, starting about 80 years ago.\n> Either way, Canada will not go back to the way things were.\n> They can be better. But not like before. Period.

Imagine a free trade agreement between Mexico, Canada and China.

Thank you PM Justin Trudeau! You make me very proud to be a Canadian! True North Strong and Free! ❤??\nAs well, thank you Americans and people around the world for supporting Canada. Bless you all!

As a EU citizen i welcome Canada to the EU, i know they are considering to Join the United States of Europe, and they have borders with one of our Union States, Denmark with Denmark's province: Greenland, and so they are more than qualified and welcome to join our United States of Europe.\nI know Canada is shifting its trade, it had previously with the USA to EU, and we welcome our new partner in trade aswell, Everything that you previously had from the USA can be now provided by Europe, and with No tarifs at all.\nWelcome Canada to the EU! United we all stand for a FREE world! No to Trump's national socialism, no to putin's dictatorship! they became our enemies!

Free Palestine free America free Canada free puerto rico stop this European colonization

Trudeau crushed free speech and lowered the standard of living in Canada below every US state. Even Mississippi. Government supported suicide did increase though.

Canada - we welcome you to more free trading with your friends in Europe. We have already started boycotting US goods. ????

If you're not for America, feel free to move to Canada and pay their taxes.

First: sorry for my bad english. It is not my First language. \n\nThis speech was remarkable. No lies, no BS, just the facts. Wish we would here the same out of the White House. \n\nAs a german who knows about german history and how everything started back then I'm terrified how fast the United States of America are moving towards a dictatorship.\n\nEvery politician around the free world should be worried about what is going to happen if DT keeps doing what he is doing, which is undermining every treaty and contract the US is having with the rest of the world.\n\nAnd on a personal note: as a child I always dreamed of someday moving to the USA. After beeing there on holiday in 2017 and also driving to Canada to visit some friends, that dream changed.\n\nDon't get me wrong, I still love your country, but you elected the worst President for the second time! WHY??? You could have known what it would be like, everything was reported on by this network and many others.\n\nAs one commentator said: this is not going to end well. And I and most of Europe and the rest of the world are thinking the same and we are afraid of the things to come.

Trump is a genius....no free lunch for Canada !!.....MAGA

Get rid of trudeau ✊️ !! Free canada !!

O Canada!\nOur home and native land!\nTrue patriot love in all of us command.\nWith glowing hearts we see thee rise,\nThe True North strong and free!\nFrom far and wide,\nO Canada, we stand on guard for thee.\nGod keep our land glorious and free!\nO Canada, we stand on guard for thee.\nO Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

If you all love Canada and Ukraine and the UK then leave you woke clowns ?. All you woke want do is get free stuff from the government. MAGA. CNN=CHINAS NEWS NETWORK

Canadian Lad here, I'm Very Proud of Our Prime Minister. Hats off Buds. Our Doors are open to those Americans that want to Live in Canada. Its a Big country I'm sure we can find a lake for you to live on free of Morons Like Donald Trump. As long as you don't mind Camping, fishing, canoeing, drinking Molson Beers watching hockey, and eating Pan cakes with Maple Syrup, lol.

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

Anyone who is “with Canada” can move there. Enjoy your free healthcare

Brit here, I stand with Canada, EU, Mexico Ukraine and all other free thinking allies

We Americans are in the process of losing so much due to Trump. In my case, my Social Security and at age 72, I am terribly frightened. I took down my American flag due to the winter weather a few months ago, and I won't be putting it up again until Trump is out of office. May God Bless America. May God Bless Canada. May God Bless Ukraine. May God Bless all countries free of Putin and may it stay that way.

Strong and free Canada ❤??

Strong and free, Vive Canada??????

I stand with Canada, Ukraine and greater free Europe. I do not stand with MAGA. F**K DJT, EM and JDV

Can hardly wait until Canada bankrupts the USA. Cut all trade with a war mongering nation, Canadians stand strong and free, we will prevail against the likes of Trump, Vance and musk who was never elected to office. Ontario just canceled starlinks, we don’t buy American products, the best thing is to shut our borders to American citizens and trade period. Just wait and see USA what we do!

I have to confess I don´t know much about the actual canadian politics. But this reaction of Mr. Trudreau was very impressive. As a german European I know we are together in this completely insane situation initalised by the pathetic performance of the Trump administration. But with Canada on our side, with a strong leader as Trudeau I´m optimistic that the european leaders will also unite and focus not on their differences but on the common interest to stop this destructive US Goverment from destroying the free western society.

He made being a drug addict legal... even encourages it with free injections. But he's done everything to fight drugs?. The only thing he's worked on is destroying Canada more than anyone in its history and he shouldn't even be allowed to speak on behalf of Canada. He should also never speak the words democracy or dictator since he clearly has them backwards.

No one wants to be a American here there nuts shame o. You Republicans and in the end you will be out of office you. Don't belong there free trade is the best trade Canada Americans are on your side corruption has taken power here

Americans should travel to Canada to boost tourism there. Spring is a wonderful time. Canada must be visa free country for Americans who want to move there!

I'm an American. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, and the free world - NOT Donald, Elon, and their MAGA-brainwashed death cult ruining my country and making our world worse.

Russian asset, *_Agent Orange_* has succeeded in the isolation and the beginning of the fall of the United States. \n_Trudeau did not only speak for Canada, _*_he spoke for the entire free world_*

Maybe there will be a new wall between Canada and USA, which Canada will pay to make new regime in US great again, and finally US with this wall around them, will be a free again... Alone. Sad story.

I may be an alien, but even I know that Canada and the free world don’t bow to tyranny we stand against it.

We will take your products, join the EU and have free access to our markets at a discount. Welcome Canada, thank you for saving us in WW2, welcome to the EU, we are alike in mentallity, manners, worldviews and strategic interests. Europe loves Canada, please send your raw products to Europe and we wil share the profits together, instead of hog all profits and forcing to sell at lower prices like US, with tarifs as a thank you. \n\nAs a thank you trade will boom, we have many products you need to develop greenhouses, refine your own crude oil and start gas installations. Welcome Canadians, we finally get to repay you after so many years, let us treat you well! Kind regards, Europe!

So for everyone fawning over Trudeau's ability to be articulate, that is impressive to you only because the U.S. has had a piece of steamed broccoli named Biden as a figure head for the last 4 years.\nI can't say I understand Trump's strategy with respect to Canada, but I absolutely know that Trump is no Socialist like Trudeau is. I am happy to wait and see how this shakes out because Trump has been right on so, so many things. No one is perfect, not Trump and not Trudeau. Maybe it's not about drugs. Maybe Canada could offer to go back to respecting individual liberties and free speech in return for the elimination of U.S. tariffs. Sounds like something Trump would agree to.

Ca ada and mexicoare just crying all bc they have to pay to usz fif all they produced look you all idiots leaders from Canada and Mexico Trump it's not playing games or gi en nothing free to one no what don't you both leaders mexican n Canadian and the rest that have been criying take it or leave it now that usa leader step on your heals please stop.criying and pay your share to the USA CITIZENS

Trudeau is correct. I am ashamed of our current usa government and its treatment of its closest allies. We are no longer the leader of the free world. \nUnder trump the usa seems to be siding with putin and disrespecting, victimizing and bullying our closest and best allies. He refers to trudeau as governor, inferring he will be governor if canada were to join the usa. Such childishness and immaturity from the leader of our country. Our allies will realign with other countries. The usa has lost the free worlds trust. It will take the usa 20 plus years to regain respect.\nTrudeau is extremely well spoken, calm and states facts. How different from president trump.

I can understand. Whoever signed the latest US / Mexico / Canada agreement is a real idiot! What North America needs is some kind of free trade agreement!
