I As an American citizen can only hope that we would have a president in office with the intelligence, compassion and dignity that PM Trudeau has. At this time I am truly ashamed of my country. Especially the ones that put this hateful, revenge seeking, criminal monster in our White House. I stand with you 100% Canada. I also hope that maybe within the next year, trump will be gone. I don't know how or where but just gone. As intelligent as prime minister Trudeau is I have to disagree with one comment he made. trump is NOT a smart man. He is nothing but a 34 count convicted felon, rapist and criminal wannabe dictator. I shudder at the thought of the end of his four year disaster. What will our country do when we have no allies whatsoever. He loves russia and putin, His puppet master. He does not understand that Russia has never been our friend, is not our friend. And never will be our friend. He just loves putin because He wants to be just like him. He is the United States very own Adolf Hitler. Also , I have removed our flag from my front yard that I so proudly displayed my entire life. It will be raised again but only after this nightmare called trump is gone! Please accept the apology from millions of Americans that stand with you. We are truly sorry and we are suffering with you. God help us. And God Bless Canada ❤

Finally, our dear Prime Minister, you stopped being nice and polite. Being firm and direct in this matter is exactly what Canadians need

I wish Trudeau was staying on as Prime Minister. Canada has a very intelligent and strong leader now. What we have in the US is absolutely abysmal. Americans are already suffering due to the idiocy and bullying tactics of the current government here..Donald.

11:55 of course trump was not interested in doing a LEGAL minerals deal with Canada, he would rather join putin and STEAL President ZIELINSKI and the Ukrainian people mineral wealth. That is the ONLY reason putin invaded Ukraine. For Ukraine mineral wealth ? much love from The Bahamas to President ZIELINSKI and the Ukrainian people ??????? keep fighting for your country and democracy. Hats off to Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau and the Canadian people for standing firm against trump and doing the right thing #glorytoUkraine #TheBahamas #242ToTheWorld #Canada

This is a leader thank you Prime Minister your concise and definitive explanation is why I voted and still support you.

It's good to see the Canadian Prime Minister confronting Trump in this way. But I think he should stop lying. Trump is NOT intelligent. Trump is an imbecile. Trump is as dumb as a rock. Trump is a moron. All you TV commentators, and other world leaders need to stand up and start telling the truth. Donald Jessica Trump is possibly the dumbest person on the face of the earth today.

Long live CANADA!!! salute to your prime minister who can stand up to a bully!!

Paula Newton, you’re correct, how dare Trudeau talks to US citizens directly or addresses “Donald” directly, after Canadians have been told we’d make a great 51st State and our Right Honourable Prime Minister has been called a “governor”!\n\nThe AUDACITY!\n\nElbows Up, Canada!

A bit rich calling him a Dictator considering the way you run your country Mr Prime Minister

Prime Minister we're sorry for all of those craps from a puppet we have in office not a president

Please someone provide me the name of the woman next to the Prime Minister because I felt like her, and I’m American ?

Standing with Canada from Australia. The only way to treat a bully is strength. Chapeau Prime Minister Trudeau

The Prime Minister is amazing. How I wish we had President Kamala at the helm instead the orange antichrist.

As an American, thank you Prime Minister!

Can someone tell the MAGA and republicans to watch this prime minister, may be they will understand.

That is my prime minister so much respect for you... canada is worth dying for.. we will not be bullied by Donald

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau! Canada stands strong and free. Thank you to all the supporting comments for Canada, appreciated so much❤️??????

From Indonesia ?? we stand with Canada ?? well said Prime Minister Trudeau ??

Total respect for our Prime Minister today.\n\nDonold, you can Take Off, you Hoser!\n\nAnd you Americans I say, hey folks, lets work this out eh.

I’m a canadian and I wish the prime minister would stop talking out his a** and actually help stop illegal immigrants from stealing our jobs

The first time ever I feel Justin Trudeau speaks like our Canadian prime minister.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is an amalgamated communist. Phuq him.

So why didn’t Canada resolve the situation? Why did in Canada stop the war between Ukraine and Russia? Prime Minister is talking out of his ass

Go prime minister treudou apply it to Trump administration???????

I am never a fan of our Prime Minister but today, he got my full respect and admiration. We all know it is not about Fentanyl or illegal immigrants crossing from Canada as little as they were. Donald Trump is just using these as excuse. He is cozying up with US' one of two prime adversaries - Russia and China - and whacking friends and allies, alienating the United States. Donald Trump probably is considering authoritarian rule over democracy. I can't wait for the day that his dumb action will whack him back. Sorry Americans, you are still our friends, but not your government.

I am proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau! Please do not bach down from the bully.

Good for you Prime Minister of Canada ??, I wish I still had relatives in Canada, then I would have gone there for a very long visit w/them ❤

Great speech. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau ❤

The prime minister will now dunk his feet into the pudding pool. As is tradition.

Can I give you a hug my Prime minister??

fellow Anglo-Saxon clowns are fighting each other, this is the rotten Canadian Prime Minister who says Canadians are polite, even though they are America's pawns, in the past a Huawei official who is a Chinese citizen was arrested by Canada on Trump's orders, now they have finally gotten their karma by being charged with tariffs by Trump, the Canadian nation likes to suck up and now they feel how America is destroying Canada, like Canada doing evil to China.

. well said prime minister Trudeau

It's unfortunate our current Prime Minister is on his way out. I sure hope my fellow Canadians do not elect Trump butt kisser Pierre polieve. Americans, we love you, we love to visit your beautiful country, every American I've met has been so friendly but America, how did you elect that trouble maker?

Canadians have been fooled. Trudeau is still the prime minister.

Thank you Prime Minister ?

Our intelligent Prime Minister! Thank you Trudeau, for making us proud to be ??!

The prime minister almost seems amused hes very theatrical this has to be a show wth is going on lol

Not a fan of Trudeau but I got to admit it’s nice seeing him unleash. One of the best speech I’ve heard from a Canadian prime minister and he’s finally showing balls

Canada prime minister fine as hell hold up ???

It’s NOT a trade war!!! Stop the drugs coming unless you don’t want to Mr prime minister

Wow, wouldn’t it be nice to have a president that could speak as well as the Prime Minister of Canada. I hope that Canadians understand that most Americans are totally embarrassed and appalled at what Donald Trump is doing.

American here holding great respect for the Prime Minister!

Proud of my Prime Minister and Mexico President for standing up against this bully shame on him attacking his friends big dummy

Dear Prime Minister Trudeau, Thank you for speaking to the American public so kindly & articulately! Please let some of our states become provinces or territories of Canada. Please let us know the forms to fill out.... Hawaii must look pretty great to you all...?! If Donald can rename the Gulf of Mexico, surely we can adjust some border lines....?

We are so sorry that we don't have a president with your integrity prime minister

I am SO proud of our Prime Minister he echoed Canadian sentiments exactly PERFECTLY said Mr. Prime Minister ❤God bless you ??God bless Canada??. God bless Ukraine??God bless his world?protect us all from the evil that has become the 50 United States??

Fake actor prime minister manipulating the masses ??? Actions matter Mr drama teacher

Why does Canada get a reasonable, articulate and TRUTH-telling Prime Minister when we are stuck with and disgraced by a delusional buffoon? God help American; our President certainly is helping America or Americans.

This resigned Prime Minister jailed and seized bank accounts of Canadian people peacefully protesting draconian COVID policies. Look it up. He cares more about sending billions to Ukraine than helping Canadians. He invited a Ukrainian Nazi and applauded him in the House of Parliament. Good riddance !

Trudeau is a good leader. Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister.
