A real Indigenous American here we really dont care, make canada the 51st, get out of the wars. Gov. Trudeau is a liar, 2 way tariffs make it equal duh with your square head ass, big ass nose. He is using witchcraft with his words, he sounds like he is reading a bedtime story to put you all back to sleep.

Well said Prime Minister Trudeau. Wish the US President had a brain and could understand your sensible, honest words. I am American. Our President and Vice President have been bought by Putin and Musk. I am ashamed.

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.

President Trump’s tariffs on Canada are essential to protecting American jobs and industries from unfair trade practices. Trudeau’s corrupt leadership has exploited the U.S. for years while failing to curb the fentanyl crisis that devastates American communities. His government’s scandals and suppression of dissent prove Canada is no longer a reliable partner. These tariffs aren’t about punishment—they’re about securing America’s future, restoring fair trade, and putting American workers first.

An intelligent, civil and respectful leader that is sincere and speaks the truth against the US administration lies. Trudeau cares about the Canadian people and the American people. That's admirable!

We Americans trust our President Mr. Trump. Not you, Mr. Trudeau.

Well done Trudeau! Everyone in the world should stop buying American goods and delete your American social media and subscriptions. Disconnect the techbro's!

Canadian here. Wake up Canadians. Many people are praising Trudeau for this speech. Don't. He is out as Liberal leader within the week. He doesn't have to follow through on anything he said. Plus, he just stated that he's smart enough to suggest that Trump just put a 25% tax on Canadian goods for Americans but he also thinks that you are dumb enough not to realize that he just put a 25% tax on Canadians for American goods. Trudeau basically created the situation for these tariffs (open border to let anyone come here). He loves this as he gets to take the apparent moral high ground for the first time in his life and wants this speech to be the way he is remembered rather than years of failing Canada. Forget about the last 9 years and vote Liberal if you are a fool.

You know listening to Trudeau speak this is how a true leader should act and think how much more of the abuse of government are we going to take as Americans?

Trudeau trunp has no allies... that is the damn sad truth for the American people, too. Sad day, & yet another day I'm embarrassed to be an American. I live in this state of shock, though I shouldn't be. He's a f'n moron. I hate this man who is supposed to be the president of the UNITED STATES. He's done nothing but cause chaos everywhere. Stick it to us Trudeau, I for one do not blame you at all. It's really pissing me off. He does not know what he's doing, nor do those around him. There is no winning with this loser.

Trudeau .. thank you for having the courage to speak up when the gutless politicians of America, rape the people of their dollars and opportunities, ie. little hitler (trump) and little himmler(musk) the new age fascists of American Politics.

As a Canadian Trudeau is a fool. He's one of the most hated, if not the most hated Prime Minister in history. He's a known liar and has acted like a dictator in this country over his tenure and continues to send OUR money to fight a war on the Ukraine that most Canadians have no interest in. It's funny reading Americans and people all over praising this guy. If you like him so much, you can keep him. Most people would he glad to be rid of Trudeau.

Hello, PM Trudeau. We don't want this either. Looks like we all got screwed. Signed, 1/2 of Americans.

As a Canadian have have often been at odds with Trudeau's views and actions but I have to give credit where it it due, this is a great response delivered with respect to the American people and without hate or malice.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spoke eloquently and professionally as a true leader should. Canada you will get through this. I am neither Canadian or American but I am with Canada but I stand firmly with Canada. I love your country and I love Canadians.❤❤❤❤❤

I APPLUAD YOU, PRIME MINISTER MR. TRUDEAU\nAND AS AN AMERICAN I WANT YOU TO KNOW I STAND WITH CANADA??, MEXICO THE UK & EUROPE. NOT RUSSIA. \nI BACK THE UKRAINIANS ??\nGOD BLESS YOU\nGOD BLESS ALL OF US.\nI APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING AN IDIOT IN THE WHITEHOUSE.

You ain't reasonable nor polite Trudeau you taking advantage of Americans O V E R find yourself another idiot to play with. Trumps tariffs are long overdue so glad this is happening. We have THE BEST president ✊✊

American here. The only reason for these tariffs is because Trudeau refused to lick the boot of the orange deranged and vindictive president we have now...shameful behavior from our vindictive president.

BRAVO, Prime Minister Trudeau! I am AMERICAN & I concur with everything you eloquently detailed! Our government is risking alienation from our multi-generational friends and I am against our president playing this whack-a-mole game with our valued Allies! ??‍♀️

AMEN Trudeau tell the truth about our new Government not doing the right thing for us Americans. Thank you for saying the truth.

Why do I feel like Trudeau cares more about my well-being than my own government? Not all of us Americans support Trump. Frankly, I'm terrified of what he's doing. I support your push back, Canada. It only makes sense. I'm glad there are countries out there with safe and logical leaders. Hopefully someday the U.S. can have that again.

Do what you got to do, Mister Trudeau, sir! We know that our orange President and his masters, Puitin and Musk, are Dictators and Tyrants. Our American Government is now corrupt. We, the people, stand with Canada! Do what ya gotta do, sir.

Why did Jake Tapper cut off Trudeau’s remarks when Trudeau was telling the American people why the US National Anthem was being booed? I have to rethink why I used to think that CNN wasn’t Fox-like.

American citizens haven't been able to afford groceries after the dementia administration of yesterday, and we sure can't afford to fund an endless war in europe. Trudeau is just as out of touch as the MSM propagandists are.

President Trudeau-CAN YOU PLEASE BE THE US NEW PRESIDENT???? I DID NOT VOTE FOR TRUMP AND THINK HE IS AN ID*&T, and we as an American people SIDE WITH YOU!!!

Canadian here. You Americans seem stupid. Trudeau is the worst leader we’ve ever had. He’s on his way out. He’s resigned. He’s a disaster. He doesn’t stand for freedom. Or freedom of speech. You people have no idea. Perhaps you could read a little bit more.

Prime Minister Trudeau, I can safely say I do not support what Trump has done, and definitely did not vote for the orange man. The majority of us Americans are with you... We are sorry. This is just a hot mess, and it is only March...

As a 72 yr old American in HI, I fully agree with Mr. Trudeau, and am profoundly turned off to Trump and his lap poodle, Vance.

Prime Minister Trudeau, can you annex America so we can have common sense leadership again. You and Ukrainian Leader Zelensky are true leaders. Trump is hurting our allies and most of all us Americans. Just know i and many other Americans did not vote for Trump, a criminal and womanizer, I as an American stand with Canada. Go Canada,!!!!!

Canadian here ... we are so very proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ... Canadians coast to coast are 100% united. We are buying Canadian, or if not available here from a trusted partner ... BOYCOT everything from the usa. We can NEVER trust the usa again. What I can't get by is 77+ million of you voted for ALL of this. We are defending our country, americans ask yourselves ... why exactly are you going to be paying more? who benefits? thank you felon president for this

President Trump can forgive Zelenskyy, but he should NEVER forgive Justin Trudeau, he’s the one who opened up the Northern Border and let all these millions of Illegal Indian nationals to the country! Also another major abuse, which gets unnoticed, is the TN (Trade Nafta) visa, every year nearly 50,000 Canadians (mostly, 95% Indians) moves to America and steal high paid American jobs. It’s high time to stop this abuse, Indians are using this short route to immigrate to the US, high time to put an end to it!

As an American Mr. Trudeau let me say that i highly respect the way you speak with education and dignity. Thank you for what your telling us. I didn't vote for this tyrant or these republican politicians. I hope those MAGA's are happy with how we are doing and the suffering that is coming shortly.

Thank you Mr. Trudeau for realizing that the American people, obviously not our leaders, are with you and we will work this out!

I never voted for that dangerous man but feel ashamed as an American for this betrayal against our nicest and closest allies. The Canadians must be very proud of their great, smart and brave leader, Mr Trudeau

Imagine robbing the United States for years with unfair tariffs and then crying about making it fair by gaslighting Americans and Canadians by describing Trump's attempt at negotiating a peace deal and saving lives as appeasing a murderous dictator. Trudeau is a morally corrupt and cowardly piece of sht.

I agree with Trudeau. Everything the U.S. has done it has done to itself and the U.S. government is to blame for putting its own citizens at risk and jeopardizing the security of Americans by marginalizing domestic civilians to the role of consumer to the point that families get torn apart and homes get wrecked. Mark my words this U.S. government is a home-wrecker, not your faithful government servant that worked in the best interest of Americans alike from the Atlantic to the pacific coast.

Hey hey hey, Mr. Trudeau..that is Dumpy Trump, not the American people. We agree with you, Sir!!!

TRUMP IS FIRING AMERICANS. TRUDEAU IS DEFENDING CANADIANS.

This American says fuck Trump go Trudeau and Canada

Wrong Mr. Trudeau:\n\nThe AMERICAN VOTERS listened to Trump and chose to vote for him. They are the ones you need to tell:\n\nYOU voted for this leader, YOU created this trade war. \n\nVOTE BETTER next time!

MR. TRUDEAU, QST, THIS GOVERNMENT IS NOT! AMERICA'S! IT'S TRUMP'S, VANCE'S & MUSK 'S! & 2ND, THAT PUTIN SCUM SUCKING BASTARD IN THE WHITE HOUSE IS NOT! AMERICAN!! HE'S A SCUM SUCKING TREASONOUS TRAITOR TO THE LOWEST PVT. & SEAMEN IN OUR MILITARY & A BACK STABBING S.O B. TO NOT ONLY AMERICAN TAX PAYERS; BUT TO EVERY LONG TERM ALLIE WHO SHARED MUTUAL RESPECT, HONOR & TREASURED SECURITY TO ALL OUR PEOPLES OVER THE DECADES!

Thank you Trudeau! As an American, I support you and am so embarrassed and appalled by my own country.

It’s comical for Canadian government to think it has any power to make threats of an economic crisis in the United States.You’re economical stability and military protection revolves around trade from the United States.The deficit needs to be equal or your the grifters not the American tax payers footing the bills to keep your country from collapse.America will be just fine without crooks like Trudeau.

Funny how Trump starts wars and removes any assistance Americans need from federal government… and here’s Trudeau, defending his country and beefing up federal aid to citizens who will need it. Trump is a Kkkuck. 100% for Canada

Trudeau said he don’t want to see American people hurt like we don’t have a better military?

Paula Newton, how dare you use the phrase anti-americanism! This is one of the most emotionally contained and dignified responses do the bullying president of the United States that I've heard so far. Trudeau has every right to be as pointed as he wants. I hate what Trump is doing and I live here! Trump doesn't speak for me. I have friends in Canada. Canadians are absolutely welcomed to help us do something to rein in the power of the dictator in training, Trump.

Canada and Trudeau Choke on American _ _ _ _

As an American...I wish we had PM Trudeau as our President

I am a proud to be a Canadian! I have not bought anything American since this crap has started. Justin Trudeau, you have really stepped up to the plate! Well done! You have proved you do love Canada, unconditionally! ♥️♥️♥️♥️??????????????

As an American, I am so jealous of Canadians. Your govt's got your back and you actually have people who can speak properly running your govts ? I liked Trudeau's speech and answers so much. He's being so honest
