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!

This is the type of speech hard to listen to, the type of speech you need to give to a country about to go war, make no mystake, thats what this is, and this is also the type of speech that shows who is and who is not fit for leadership, Trudeau you made mistakes when you were younger, but who didnt, but you sure matured to be a leader who can make people follow you from youre words alone, im glad we have a president in south america with such caracther on the side of reason and peace, with all the doomlike scenarios i conjure from seeying Trump pulling the USA to side with Russia and only imagine russia joining nazi germany just to get also screwed as soon as russia gets the chance and trump is clueless about it, youre speech eased my mind a bit, thank you and thank you to all the people of Canada

making America great again..... not...

If we read how trump speak about governor Trudeau it's cleat Trump wants to make canada and Mexico the Ukraine of the north America! Maybe it's time to hit back at trump/VANCE AND CUT THE ELECTRICITY AND OIL OF ALBERTA RIGHT NOW ! AND KICK THOSE 2 CLOWNS OUT OF THE WHITE WHITE HOUSE CAUSE AMERICANS WILL SUFFER JUST LIKE US WITH THOSE STUPID TARRIFS

Fellow Canadians, stand behind him. Stay strong.\n\nWe need President Trump to take over. Make Canada America Again.\n\n82% of Canadians support President Trump\n\n61% of Canadians want to be part of a great pure America

The US almost sounds like Gilead. I’m so sad for Americans. I am a North American Indigenous person and live in Canada. Trump says he wants to make America great again and has only hurt the American people.

Sorry for America's Citizens i still have a good Opinions of you . Trump is making of America a TITANIC SHIP. How many his own Busineses hat destroyed Trump during his carreier. Before 20 years ago he was nobody, after 4 years he will be nobody.

THIS guy could make America great again. Go Canada!

I will make it make sense!\nTrump owes Putin for loaning Trump Inc. billions to prop him up from another bankruptcy. Now its time to pay up. If he doesn't perform accordingly, some not so good things could potentially be in order. Trump has fed his flunkie followers a garbage of hope. Those surrounding him have been promised high level authority if his Coup in ridding America of Democracy prevails. He is destroying higher Authority first. The last piece to his plan will be SCOTUS. They are too smart to see it coming, thats why that group continues to provide cover for all of Trump's lunacy. Maybe there will soon be a Daniel to reveal the dream of Nebuchadnezzar. Insha Allah. ?

The Hermit Kingdom of America. Trump is making Trudeau sound like a reasonable person. Unbelievable!

This is what a true leader says and does. Trump is the exact opposite = a blabbering fool that insults others and is an embarrassment for our great country which is America. Make America Great Again = Impeach Trump now.

Surely everyone has noticed just how intelligent Mr. Trudea really is when he speaks. Quite a contrast when Mr. Trump is speaking about anything. Never once did this gentleman make this conversation about himself or issue any threats towards or against America. In a matter of days America has succeeded in isolating itself from its allies and the rest of the world and all the while China has remained Incredibly Silent.

Austria here. Trump himself is the biggest scam ever. He says „make America great again“ while isolating it, breaking with allies, constantly telling lies, cuddling Putin as he would be his best friend. In truth he is obviously a Russian allie.

Trump is a big mistake for American. After 4 years in office, US will regret voting Donald Trump.\nThis is not the way to make US great. Imagine putting fights in all ur allies. That is a wrong fight. Change ur useless policies or US will go down in history from great nation to isolated nation. No nation can suceed alone. America is great today because of other nations. Time will tell

Are we making America great again? As an American this is sickening, hope the imbeciles that voted for Trump are ashamed

Putin's best investment is Donald Trump. Make America great again, in your dreams.

People like double talk and bullshit listening to this moron they will lose hands down, listening to this shit makes me laugh dragging down America to there benefit go efff off Canada.

We voted for Trump for a reason. That it which we as a Country need to stand up and be Great Again. Other countries have been getting away with allot of things, now it’s time for it to end. Thankyou Mr Trump for making America Great Again!

Donald, only a great man can make America great again. You are not a great man, so you can make America only miserable.

He's fantastic...THIS is what a TRUE leader looks like MAGA...he inspires his citizens to work together and that's what makes their country GREAT.\nDonald Trump has purposefully worked towards dividing American citizens from day ONE, for the simple reason of his GREED for money and lust for power, and it's laughable that his slogan is 'make America great again' because anyone with a moderately functioning brain, knows that an extremely divisive country will NEVER be 'great'.\nHell...with trump as your leader...you're barely even functioning thus far, after his 'leadership' of a few weeks. God help you all after a few months, or YEARS!! What a FOOL.

This is the same guy that closed peoples bank accounts during covid starving families where truck drivers and farmers couldn't make a living a dictator driven by self power and here we have u.s citizens saying they agree with him and his sugar coating if that's the case move to Canada we have become to dependent on other countries supplying us with what we can produce ourself its time to get back to work made in America for Americans there is nothing we can't do if we come together and stop believing the hype that we need other countries

He says he love America and that he's going to make it great again but he secretly is destroying America and causing chaos make it make sense

Canada and other countries had there opportunity to make trade fair with America. They have not complied. Now they are suffering the consequences. Trump will win. I believe America still has a backbone even though cnn watchers don’t.

Twice in a week Trump is humiliated by a world leader, Trump thinking he can be a president of a country like the ceo of a corporation. He blackmails people offering them scraps from the table of his last meal as if they should be thankful. How on gods earth did America vote this clown as it's leader. Putin has spent 3 years trying to get into Kiev and in a few weeks has managed to get into the Oval office of the Whitehouse. I sit here in the UK watching what is going on in America like many around the world cringing and at the same time laughing at how such a scumbag could achieve what he has done. Trump and his arse licking lapdog are making a laughing stock of the US and you seem helpless to stop the shitshow that is coming your way. I feel for you and hope his stupidity will lead to a very quick exit for the now most famous clown in the world.

Trudeau is a POS. Trump Making America Great again.

I hope modern civilization can survive Trumpism, and that we in America who always voted against it can make things right with our allies in the free world

It's sad that Donald Trump, the president of the United States of America need other men to make him look so-called strong! The United States of America is a Latin stock and I want the rest of the world to know that the American people did not vote for this, do not want this, and to be honest with that we do not want Donald Trump in South Africa can take Elon Musk back because we don't want him either, actually emblemas can go f*** himself! We apologize to the Ukraine president, to Mexico president to the Canadian president, and all the leaders that have been allies to the United States of america, I'm speaking on behalf of every sane American care in the United States of America please accept our apologies and don't judge us so harshly because we didn't want this at all?

Make America pay again..??

Canada wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for America, they’re not self sufficient. Cut off the child support and make them the 51st state.

I'm an American who did not vote for the boar in the white house. I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, Greenland and Panama. Trump is behaving as if he made a deal with Putin to destroy the American economy and America's international relationships. We are making enemies of all our allies.

Canada is going to make it through this. America is boned.

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.

Prime Minister Trudeau, thank you for showing the world how a true gentleman and leader talks to the leaders of another country in spite of the irrational, immoral and turncoat actions from a former Ally; our (?) new MAGA President Donald Trump. It's so surreal that this narcissistic, psychopathic person actually won the Presidential election (again). All I can say is I am sorry, embarrassed, and ashamed of my broken country's politicians in Washington, D.C. at present. Many more Americans support the democratic policies than the anti-democratic that Trump's regime is spouting all around the world. Just know this isn't what most Americans believe and we don't support his thoughts and actions. We are trapped in this nightmare that makes no sense. We hope this is just a temporary change. These new policies benefit no one but the oligarchs of America (and world). I guess we are just going to have to take our punishment for the few years for not being able to prove that these people in Washington care NOTHING for anyone, including their own constituent, and are hell bent on taking down and destroying our American, Democratic way of life and we, the people, are helpless to stopping it dissolve and crumble. Thank you Canada for always being such great neighbors. Good luck, peace out!

The tariffs will affect the consumer and business sectors. I can barely afford to live as it is. Make America great again?

Drugs is nothing but an excuse… Canada isn’t sending drugs… we don’t have the population to make enough drugs to supply the USA. That’s literally the dumbest excuse and if Americans believe that they are dumber than I thought. If your having people or drugs coming in to you country then fix whatever your border agents are doing that’s allowing that. Use your head America… you’re loosing your freedom to a tyrant.

As an American I am so disheartened about things going on at the White House. A lot of us didn’t vote for this mess and their stupidness. I am so unhappy and disgusted. Donald Trump needs to be in jail not sitting in White House being a demanding bully. This is a nightmare, the last 2 months have been a nightmare. Look how elegant Canda, Mexico and Pres Zelensky are being. He was suppose to be making America great again. What a joke!

Ahh it's pointless. Trump has no intention to make America great again. He wants to bankrupt the country and steal all the money. And he's doing exactly that. It's the revqnge on Americans for hurting his feelings 4 years ago!

CNN you make me sick, god forbid our president stands for America

This is a mess for the USA……I Thought “someone” was supposed to be making America great again

MAGA seems a lot more like MAIN: Make America Irrelevant Now

What is happening to making America great again !!seems like only making enemies here and there ??

How much longer will the US put up with this insane rampage by President Trump, who is alienating reliable partners and making common cause with enemies. America needs to wake up and realize that this will only have dire consequences for the nation.

Somebody needs to tell donald, the disgraced, soon to be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, soon to be former president, the never to be premier of America which is the soon to be 11th province of Canada by way of unanimous consent of the American public... DON'T START NO SH*T WOULDN'T BE NO SH*T!\nYou know what this is about don't you?? donald is mad at our Prime Minister because he was caught joking and making fun of donald with other world leaders at the 2019 NATO summit in London. So because donald has microscopically thin skin he can't take his over inflated ego being bruised in any way, so to get back at Trudeau he's going to take it out on the Canadian public and the American public, the consequences be dammed. The only thing that is important to him is revenge no matter what the cost. Besides, when Trudeau visited the Whitehouse, Melania gave him googly eyes and melted in his presence. Let's face it donald, you can never come close to ever being the man our Prime Minister is as much as I dislike Trudeau and are glade to see him gone.

Make America minuscule, for once

The more I read the comments of different news articles, the more I realize that we as a world, and a species, want to be united as friends, hand in hand but our leaders are trying to keep us divided. I hope we make it through the next few years alive. And when this nightmare is over, I look forward to the world coming together, be they people of Russia, Ukraine, Mexico, Canada, and America.

Bearing and tact. What ALL world leaders should have. Why is The Divided States of America making enemies? With ALL of the firings to so many government employees, the country's moral is extremely low. Rumored cuts to Medicaid, Social Security and Food Programs would be DEVASTATING to millions. There's a new wind blowing.??????

I am american. I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. None of this makes sense. Trump is a Treasonous traitor Putins puppet and a domestic terrorist with a maga cult taking a hostel government takeover for Putin. \nTrump is doing Putins bidding destroying America from within. He doesn't care about you, Ukraine or the American people. He lies and spreads Russian propaganda.

Does Canada have a Department of Defense? The lack of respect is wild. Donald..? President Trump is the protocol. He represents the office of the United States of America. Make no mistake ask UK and Ukraine to provide defense. Pull the plug no need to be called a predator by your own neighbor... ?

I think I want to move to Canada. America is full of shit too much gun violence. Nobody cares about all the innocent children that are dying and now we have a president who wants to make everybody’s lives miserable. For all of you that voted for Trump. I hope you see the truth of what he’s about a worthless individual a narcissistic psycho make America great that is the worst saying of all time he’s making America lousy.

Time to take Canada over sorry time to enter a new world Make America Great again
