One thing I find cool about Canadian federal speeches is that they conduct it in both English and French - Canada’s official languages. Their politicians are mostly bilingual because they are required to be. That’s kinda cool.

Well done Canada ?

We're all so disgusted and saddened about all of this. You're so right about everything that you're saying about trump; Putin has his puppet in this country and he's making the most of it, by helping trump to become dictator here. Please Canada, do what you have to do, we don't want this either; we're stuck with trump until our congress grows a spine and kicks this ugly, vindictive man out of office! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, you are what is needed in this crisis! I'm glad to be a Canadian, I just wish I was living there, not here. What a total embarrassment to us all that did not vote for trump. (from Sandi Paquet)

Love Canada, fight fight fight, we hate Trump!!!

Wow I'm sorry Canada! This is not what we want either!! Very embarrassing to be an American right now. ?

It seams Canada was never friend of US, so it’s time to wake up

He talks as if there's no trade imbalance. Us goods going into canada at a higher rate. A good neighbor doesn't allow fentanyl and illegals into our country. The usa does not need canada. The usa is the third largest in population. The usa is its own ecosystem. The usa needs nothing from canada. I stand with President Trump and Made in USA.

I thought you were gone Trudy. We like you Canada but we don’t really need you. We can solve the problems we get from you in 15 minutes. This guy has no problem freezing protesters bank accounts, forcing people to scan QR codes to decided who eats at a restaurant, and government sanctioned beatings of peaceful protesters because they dare stand up for freedom. Canada wake up. Trudy is a good old fashioned communist. The more he fights back against Trump, the more I know Trump is right.

He's leaving office this month. He has nothing to lose. Canada will be the big loser in the end. As an American I stand for America.

Wow bravo Canada. My dream country

The whole Americans are delusional. They see their country diving down and not doing anything about it. I stand with Canada.

We are so sorry Canada! This POS in the White House needs to go!

That's hilarious how CNN has adopted a loser PM of a third world country to be it's faint beacon of their version of Democracy. \n \nCanada is a colony of the UK. It's not a Democracy. \n \nIn this day and age of freedom and independence, and respect for human rights, Canada and the UK governments should be ashamed that colonialism is still their guiding principle. \nI find that ridiculous that CNN does not see the hypocrisy of Canada and the UK leading the call for continued Ukraine independence. \n \nIs this slavish relationship the attraction for CNN and it's ignorant presenters? Isn't CNN the least bit ashamed they admire slavery in the 21st century and that they are giving voice to colonialists?

Canada and Mexico both complied with his demands. Give him and inch..

What's WILD to me is that some Americans (*not intelligent ones) still stand behind their leader. It's an unreal time to be living in the US. \n\nLove you Canada!

Bravo le Canada ! En tant que français je suis si fière de votre résistance .Merci de parler franchement et de rétablir la vérité dans cet océan de mensonges maga.\nLes usa traitent mieux les dictateurs que ses alliés parce que Trump les admire et il veut abattre la démocratie.

Sorry Canada. But Donald's not interested in fact. It's theater. He has no idea how tariffs work.

Canada doesnt want you anymore! You dont have to go home but you cant stay here!

Australia is backing you Canada! Get me some genuine maple syrup!

51 State Canada ??

Canada We know it’s not You! Unfortunately because Racism is Ingrained in the fabric of America, We are here yet Again?? Because a vote for An Orange cheetah is just insane. They thought by voting for Orange boy the stuff being implemented would only affect people of color. Check Your hearts America God is Aware of who is whom & Judgement it at the Door??

We are so scared of Canada… that was a Joke???????

Can you adopt us? The US now has hostages ?Those of us who didn’t chose the orangutan and his gang are suffering and trying our hardest to fight back. We will keep fighting and uniting as much as possible ?? I deeply admire Canada and it’s people/ leadership.

Don’t back down ever Canada. As an American I want you to make Trump look as stupid as he is.

LMAO. We don’t need Canada for a damn thing. The reality is America has been getting screwed by every foreign country out there. Trump is laying it down and yall can stand the F by. America First. We don’t need any fertilizer from you, once Trump rolls back these bullshit EPA regs, America will boom. Adios Canada… LMAO.

Yep it's going to be interesting \nAs I work for an international Automotive injection molding company based here in the US\nWe import Raw materials from Europe and China plus within the US and who knows where these materials come from.\nBut we also export finished products and materials to Europe, China, Canada, Mexico just to name afew.\nThat is a lot of tariffs placed on these products and that doesn't include tax, cost of labor, manufacturing costs\ngoing to be interesting what the future holds

I Chose to stand with Canada…My Apologies to all Canadians for the conduct of the Dictator Wannabe in our country, I for one did not and would never vote to put him in office.. Stay strong Canada for the Majority of the United States stands with you! In Solidarity to your cause. God Bless you all.

Texan here, who voted against Donny D 11:08 umbass. I stand with Canada and Ukraine.

Canada❤ It's so wise to stand up to bullies!

Im a embarrassed American because half of this country, voted this idiot into office. I think they’re coming to their senses, but of course it’s too late. I do not blame Canada for their actions I blame Trump.

American here. I wish we could have the same level of leadership as Canada.

Justin can kiss my ass. Liberals let the drug problem. Liberals are farting around with their party while Canada needs a govt in the oval office. Liberal party makes me sick. Jagmeet is a piece of crap

Canadians r sorry but we will make things hard for america and no one will be to blame but their president the walking orange pumpkin school yard bully, ? tarrif on Tesla woot woot, we r done with Musk making money on Canada, we r don't protecting America, joining their ridiculous wars and losing our own ppl for their benefit, they will see what elbows up means to a Canadian

Canada can’t win over the United States.

THIS AMERICAN STANDS WITH CANADA!!!! OUR “LEADER” IS A DICTATOR AND HIS MAGAS ARE IDIOTS!

We love you Canada!! Boycott everything from us. Republicans need to know the consequences of their votes.

Great leadership qualities folks. I never thought he had it in him. ?. Well done Canada. Respect for not bowing down like other leaders. Be proud Canada. We are of him.

I can only hope that Europe and the UK will not wait, but choose for a preemptive tariff. This way in total $1.5 trillion of US business will be hit, in a combined strike of China, Mexico, Canada and the EU. This Bullshit of Trump has to stop.

Stupid comments here, see a clown like Trudeau and praising him because of his tan and tone, not knowing the slightest thing. He is not an actor; he is the PM of Canada. Hating Trump doesn't make this clown any better. Ask Canadians whether they think he is the next coming of Christ. Clown who has even stepped down because of his failures. Americans stop being ignorant.

American here, Great Job Canada! We despise Trump and all he stands for. So do what you gotta do, we understand.

well-done Canada. Trump is living in another fantasy-world outside reality. Anyway, what do you expect from a dummie in power.

After a speech like this, discourse and solutions are supposed to follow. It's how we work with peers in school, it's how business allies work.\n\nInstead, Trump may see this as a harsh message and fire up the heat to turn this into a spectacle-- arguments, ego, threats. And then the actions will be reactions and attacks instead of solutions. i think the issue lies in that my statements-- no matter if you're Red or Blue, ring factually correct to Trump\ns behavior. he's not here to save citizens or solve issues. He is here for us to watch his reality TV show-- but it's also our own reality!! \n\nHOW IS THE US AND CANADA IN A TRADE WAR RIGHT NOW IN 2025!? I don't understand!!!

❤Oh Canada!

All the concessions made by Canada and Mexico will never satisfy Trump

I admire this canada prime minister, he's so smart

we should take canada yall are so incredibly worthless

Go Trudeau! Every son and daughter of Canada is willing to sacrifice their lives for their motherland. \n\nLet the rednecks meet us in the battle field, we will make them forget their defeats in Vietnam and Afghanistan…

We Real Americans stand with you Canada and we will remove trump as soon as we can.
