I am so proud of Canada. The rest of the world needs to step in here. Start putting tariffs on the United States and sanction Trump musk and any Republican that stands with them. Come on the world. The American people need a push to get rid of trump Canada. The true Americans love you guys

America has too much pride and ego in being a super power we should all boycott american products, to show them that they also need to cooperate with the world and bring them down to earth

KGB trump destroying the world we need to stop him

Trump is a horrible, horrible human. I am devastated over what he is doing. I've never once given Trump my vote and I'm not a lefty liberal. I knew if he was voted in he was going to cause world wide chaos. He has shown his character over and over and over...yet a large portion of American's just ignored it. This election wasn't about republicans or democrats or independents. This election was about humanity and global security. American's ignored the writing on the wall for their own singular wants/opinions. They stand with their Trump flags but only a few of them can actually explain any accurate information about his policy or legal issues and they condone his behavior. The majority of Trumpers claim to be 'Christians'. Christians voting for a man who is a bully, abuser, liar, predator, monger of power, impedes freedom of press and speech and aligns himself with a dictator. He pardoned violent offenders and called them patriotic, spouts false information, obstructs investigations, has numerous felony charges against him and has now made enemies with our allies. Shall I go on? That's not Christian. Even if you aren't Christian...that's not what America stands for. All for what...eggs? Guns? Cheaper groceries? Or because your need for hating a small group of people out weighs global peace. Or is it because you are so short sighted that you can't even see the valuable contribution that non American born people provide this country. Yes, Biden fell asleep at the wheel. Yet many of you still believed the better choice was a psychopath. This election was important. We failed as a country by putting this man in office. No matter what party you align with, we failed. Yes, I want cheaper eggs. Yes, I really need cheaper groceries. But not over the safety of the globe. Not over the lives of the people and children being killed in an unprovoked war. Not over the safety of Europe. Not over ripping off our closest and favorite country that borders us. Not over losing our democracy and our allies. I stand with Ukraine, Canada, Mexico and Europe and the Gulf of Mexico. You should ask yourself what you really stand for.

Trump and his cronies are liars and want nothing more than to become permanent leaders in a country controlled by billionaires. The world needs to work out how to thrive and prosper without the USA.

US citizen here. I stand with all of our allies. I hope than Canada gives us a kick in the backside we sorely need. We are led by a buffoon who thinks that the “Mar-A-Lago Accord” is the way forward. That plan would be wayyyy too damaging to the world’s economies. But..when has tRump listened to anything but the voices in his head?

Your General said this is isolating Canada. No it isn't. The UK, Europe and Asia are very open to trade. Indeed many have existing deals which can only grow.\n\nI hear that there are a great many frustrated Americans. Americans who don't want this trade war. Unfortunately Your commander in chief is Your voice on the World stage. His choices are effectively Your choices. HE represents your country. It's him we have to deal with, or not, as the case may be.\n\nUntil you can wrestle the House, the Senate and ultimately the Oval, off these walking-disasters The US with edge closer and closer to being a Paraiah state.\n\nGood luck with that. You're going to need it. The World is already making alternative plans wrt defence, trade and political ideology. All without the US... think about that....

Trump is good a being president in many ways because he is a business man, not a politician, but in business it's about dominating the market place and your competition, bending them to your will if you can, but when you are president, you need to keep alliances with other countries, not dominate over them, otherwise you weaken your position on the world stage. When you are at the top with the biggest economy, army, you don't need to beat down those with less, you need to keep them on your side so their strength adds to your own, which is why you are at the top. Even a mafia boss won't beat down those under him, unless he wants war, and lose his position as others form alliances to take over top position as no powerful person, president, country wants to be beaten down into submission by anyone, so they create other alliances to match or overtake those at the top. In this case, Trump needs to play the politician or weaken his position, and China will be loving this as they are next in line.

Trump went against the trade deal that he made with Canada and Mexico when he renegotiated the existing deal during his first term. Trump called his deal with them beautiful and perfect. Trump does not keep the deals he makes to other countries or to the Americans who voted for him. \n\nTrump's final push in his campaign was to cut costs for Americans at the checkout, chuckling at the strange sound of the word 'groceries' to him. He has never worried about or dealt with buying groceries. The moment he got back into office, he said that lower prices wasn't happening and that the American people would suffer. \n\nThen he and Republicans began cuts in jobs and government services to Americans as well as others in the world, so that no one can trust Trump --- and in the case of others in the world, it reflects so bad on the U.S. and against any trust in the U.S. anymore. No president has ever done so much damage at home and abroad so quickly. \n\nTrump is the Deceiver and the Destroyer. Trump doesn't care if his voters figure it out. They are no longer needed.

Your dad was a dictator ! And your attitude instead your truck driver was pretty a dictator attitude ! And you want to give a lesson! Your closer friend ???? You don’t have any respect for Trump! How hypocritical you are! But there is one thing that you need to be aware! American are tired that the world made profif on the back of the American consumer ! It is time for these countries to learn to stop doing big profit on our back! Enough is enough !

Mr. Trump doing what is good for America. Hate it or love it doesn't matter Russia is a Super power. We need peace around the world not war.

I dont like him, he is a Coronacriminal, but at this point in time the free world needs to stand together against the evil empire. Ronald Reagan is by now probably rotating in his grave.

Heys guys, I think you in the USA would be better asking this President to annex you until you can get rid of Donald for good...??? I'm from a country across the pond (Portugal) and this is the kind of guy I'd like to make alliances with.\n\nThat freak show trap your #1 and #2 put up for Zelensky last friday was sick. The civilised world really needs to unite and help eachother in every way and the guy you put in charge doesn't seem much into it. United we win!

Trump wants Canada's natural resources. He is going to, sooner or later, invade Cananda. He's made a deal with Russia and China to takeover the world. Canadians and the world need to prepare for war. Trump is the antichrist.

A message to Trudeau. Put an export tax on the Oil and Electricity sold to the United States. Open up new European Markets for Oil and Natural Gas product and sell directly to Europe and Japanese markets. China needs oil, there is plenty of market around the world for our products. The Tariff's imposed by Trump is only going to make product to the US more expensive for their own citizens, and with Tariff's on all American imports, if they can't make it, or they don't have the raw materials to make it themselves, they will have to pay more. It is not necessary to impose Tariff's on USA Products to penalize Canadians, but Canadians will find new markets to replace the US, and we won't even notice it happened. We have alternatives. The southern islands are great vacation locations, and with the weather disasters they have suffered over the past few years, they could use the tourist support to help rebuild, and, their people are friendly and don't carry guns.

wow al the delusional people on here amazing .Trump wants the tariffs to pay so americans dont have to pay taxes thats smart we should do the same and has everyone forgot that tirdeau doesnt like free speech .he is on the epstein list and his sister is tied to the picktin farm .and the war on drugs is a joke .it is worse than ever. proof is in the pudding people .trudeau is the enemy just like biden and all those like him wake up canadians .tirdeau funds hamas they are terrorists and war mongers .how terrible Trump wants world peace so does anyone with half a brain.im with trump. he is doing what many should have long ago .we need Trump here too

The world need more great leaders like Trudeau

Germany here: let's work together against this clown. The world needs more canada.

THE WHOLE WORLD NEED TO HELP USA PEOPLE TO END THIS NIGHTMARE. ??????WE DON’T HAVE LAW, SUPREME COURT, CONGRESS, SENATE ,JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, HITLER WAS A GERMANY DICTATOR IN ONLY 6 MONTHS.HELP PLEASE.?

The American people hired Trump to do exactly what he’s doing. Tired of being the world’s bank. Trudeau DO NOT LECTURE AMERICANS. You need to address your own citizens. You’ve destroyed Canada. You should resign. You’re a commie. Just like your daddy Castro.

We need the help from our friends to speak the Truth, clear and loud. Thank you PM Trudeau. The only winner here is Putin. He gets to pit our Allies against us while destroying Russa's biggest adversary (or we were). This is insane, idiotic and hopefully my fellow Americans will wake up and turn this around before it takes hold. Congress needs to do their job and stop the Executive Orders we are not an authoritarian nation (yet). Stand with Mexico, Canada, Ukrain and the rest of the Free Democratic world.

WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW MORE THAN EVER IS TO GET RID OF CHUMP \n\nTHE GOP, CHUMP, MAGTARDS AND ELON WILL BE FLYING THEIR RUSSIAN FLAGS HIGH TONIGHT BECAUSE THEY AIN'T AMERICAN ?

A world boycott is needed against trump's crew

Let's be clear Mr. Trudeau, with your pandering to the EU.. No one in your country is at risk. You're so cozy up there taking other countries and other people's money. Nobody in your country is at risk of harm, unless you want to try something? Come on Son! The U.S. is tired of War. We The People are tired of the killing, the killing you are so comfortable with. There is enough War in the world without you adding to it. Are we crystal clear now? We don't need you. And I am willing to go without a few things to prove it to you. I think a lot of Americans are now. We'll see. MAGA ??

A world boycott is needed against trump's crew

DO NOT GET RID OF MY INTERNET ( starlink )!!! not unless you have a better alternative for me to have high-speed Internet. \nTrump is trying to set himself up and America so that they are truly the only superpower of the world that needs nobody and no connection to any other country and they dictate everything across the globe. \nThat I suppose is one way of trying to do things, but it’s going to alienate the United States from the majority of the world, and will bring China closer to everyone else. And most obvious is these lining everything up for a civil war

Where are our past presidents? PResident OBama? PResident CLinton? President BIden? PResident BUsh? They still garner the title President. We need their collective wisdom and non-partisan leadership to intercess and stand up to the TREASONOUS machinations of Trump. OUR DEMOCRACY IS IN PERIL….Canada is our friend and confidant. TRUMP IS GUILTY OF TREASON! He is single handedly dismantling decades of peace, goodwill, friiendship and above all SAFETY with our French Canadian neighbors. America is in serious trouble. CNN a you have a responsibility to use your far reaching platform to seek out the opiNions and diplomatic aid of our surviving better presidents. They possess the hardwon wisdom and experience to engage with world leaders and our senators…..\nPlease take a stand. These are scary moments. TRUMP IS GUILTY OF TREASON!\nHELP! SOS! ⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓

My response to the USA people: We will give you access to the Arctic, we will work together, we will sign new deals for the minerals and electricity that you need, we can work together to do all these things and beyond.\n\nWe will defend the continent together, we've always been your friends. Just ask what you need, and we will politely agree. Always been that way... why the sudden change? Just leave our economy and sovereignty alone. What is this?? Why are we even having that conversation today ? Your 80-year old president wants to destroy the World, the same world we all lived in for generations, for what? He won't even be alive in the next 5-10 years. Was your President offered good money and other people are running the show? Seems likely to me.\n\nI have no words honestly.

Canada you are a great democratic country with a vibrant culture with a great economy, you do not deserve to be treated the way you are by the dictator Trump & his Republicans, that is what disrespect is…Trump needs to apologise to Canada & it’s people. The USA is now becoming a world menace, I hope all the nations of the world take notice of Trump’s arrogance & egoism which will start new conflicts & wars soon.\nGood luck to my Canadian friends, with lots of love & respect from Türkiye. ❣️?????❣️

oh my. one thing trumpton isn't is smart. isolate usa and let it trade with putin and its genocidal criminal brother in the middle east. we dont need usa it a third world dictator

I'm Canadian and I highly dislike Trudeau. But he is correct when he asks how do you negotiate with someone who wants to annex your country? I would suppose Trump supporters would have no problems with a hostile and aggressive foreign property developer targeting their homes. The world needs a strong America but you have lost your way. I fear the world is in for dark times

Apparently all Americans want the world to end if we fight Russia. All of you need to leave the country or get educated.

Brilliant speak from the Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau, absolutely brilliant. tRUMP will respond in his usual fashion...child like speaking ignorant and full of lies and praise for himself just watch. Is this what republicans voted for, trade wars with what were once strong allies, stripping Federal Departments that ensured well being for needed services. tRUMP and his administration this is a nightmare for not just the United States but the world.

Oh Canada ??, strong and free, our country is already great and the best in the world. Hopefully, the USA will be great again someday but I think they need a new leader ,just saying.

Talking about a REAL (world) Leader! My personal message to Mr. Trudeau... 'Why you leave at this critical stage?' We need leaders like you to stand up to this type of Clowns who jerk themselves off for power and dollar-bills. And to the biggest Clown of this (still) free world, I would like to say: Mister Clown... as you say, America First.. Do yourself a favour and built a huge wall around your last and dying power soil.. and make sure this time you pay for it yourself, so you have your isolated soil called USA all for yourself and your regretting voters with your trade traffic. Make America great AND ISOLATED again... and make the US dollar a welcomed item at the toilet around the world!

Looking in from the out side I applaud Trudeau on his speech. But........ Canada needs the USA more than the USA needs Canada. Trump is who the United States elected by a majority. No games..... no fraud..... He IS THE Average large pickup driving, loud and rude American. He Is America and the rest of the world needs to take note.\n\n To be fair, in historical terms, the USA was created to be isolated and different than Europe. They went to War to become an independent country away from Europe. This whole idea that they follow Europe everywhere is only a small blip in history since WW2, they were never set up to be that.\n\n If Anything, the rest of the world should see there mistake in becoming so dependent on the USA. You should never put that much faith and trust in just one country.

Good Trudeau you explains are very well\nDo think Trump he can rule over the world We don’t want to have a second Hitler We don’t need the Americans I am from Europe And we will survive with out Trump!!!!!!!!!

I’m am Ukrainian Canadian and over the last few days I see how the new US government’s policy ruining everything we all believe in so dearly: democracy, friendship, helping shoulder to those who needs support against the bloody dictators, and firing thousands of people without cause who provided cybersecurity, guarded fairness of your elections… all being flashed down the toilet. And I watch it being replaced with bulling those who is bleeding, stabbing the friends and neighbors, singing praise to the war criminals charged for crimes against humanity with unlawful deportation and transfer of 20,000 Ukrainian children into russia. Children?! And I want to ask you a question: will you be a silent bystander watching the world plummet into the hatred, redivisions of borders and the rule of heartless convicted “deal makers”? I think I know who he made the deal with... And to those who voted for him: do you still believe this will lead you and your country to greatness?? One single fact that both Moscow and Beijing celebrate watching what’s happening should raise your eyebrows and question your decision to bring this man into power. Instead of making America great again the fight for saving America just began. God help you and all of us!

I almost feel like I need to apologize to the world for the moron that is in the White House. It’s sad when you’re ashamed to be an American.

Remind me again why Trudeau was forced to resign? Even NY Times investigative journalists recently explained how NAFTA worked against US interests and killed so much of our industry decades ago; almost the opposite of what was intended. Trade needs to be reformed across the board. It's also insulting the way other world leaders are now speaking directly to the American Public and lying to them as if they have our best interest in mind. World leaders are elected to defend the interests of their own people, many times they just look out for their own personal interest, but they are definitely not looking out for American interest. It is up to us. The world stage is a complicated transaction of this for that. That's life. Have you all forgot playing United Nations in high school? Trade needs to be renegotiated from significantly benefiting every other country but USA. Trump is trying to do that.

A trade war is crazy the propaganda needs to stop the world mad they can't use us nomore lol

Canada is soo much more ahead. Shaming the Canadian pm,doesnt help to disguise the screw ups coming from the US.. \n\nCanada shows having balls& self respect. \n\nMany countries can learn from their insights..\n\nCNN,.. write this down in paper... And read it back.. \n\nCNN ( the US one) need to get look at themselves,the attitude is beyond arrogant. \n\nYou forget that the whole world sees the tricks youve played for decades. \nManipulating/suggesting .. \nPlease.. Americans,canadians,europeans, asian citizens Arent that dumb.. stop behaving that we are..

USA should up Canada tariff to 50%. Screw them. No one in the world gives a sh1t about Canada. All your famous rich ppl came to the USA to get famous and rich. What have they EVER done???? ??? Our GDP to Canada is 17%. Theirs to us is only 2%. Don't need them.

What an outstanding leader Justin Trudeau is….and has been on the world stage and at home for many years. I hope he does not step down from politics or not seek re election as Leader and withdraws his resignation letter. This action s exactly what Trump needs to hear and bring him down to earth but then Trump is a puppet for Maga and Putin. Trump had no real brain it is others leading him along and he is too stupid to see that the King is not wearing clothes. Trudeau has spelt it out with clarity.

Sounds like CANADA IS NOT CLOSING THE BORDER. AMERICA NEEDS TO STOP GIVING THE WORLD FREE MONEY.

Donnie Bone Spurs needs to come out of the closet to address his insecurities and deep lack of self esteem. Until then, we apologize to the rest of the world.

Right so after years of inflation, a pandemic, ongoing wars etc. Trump decided he had to make everything worse by starting a trade war and aligning himself with a murderous dictator...what a great choice for president the world totally needed right now ?

Trump just gave every country in the world that they need a nuclear program of their own and nuclear weapons of their own. You can not and will not and should not trust USA anymore

Trump is a BULLY. Trump needs and thrives on attention and adulation. DO NOT GIVE IN TO TRUMP !! The best way to deal with a bully is to STAND UP TO HIM. IF THE WORLD STANDS TOGETHER AGAINST DONALD TRUMP, DONALD TRUMP WILL BACK DOWN. JUST LIKE ALL BULLIES.\nTrump wants to control 1/3 of our known world, along with China and Russia.

I come from a long line of Canadian’s, I’m not a fan of Trudeau but I have to say he made me proud today standing up to the school yard bully. I know most Americans don’t support what Trump is doing because as Canadian and Americans we are decent hard working people who don’t need a government that doesn’t speak for the people God bless us all the world needs to find a way for peace our children and grandchildren deserve better.
