This is what a leader should be, eloquent, polite, articulate and smart.

This is what a real leader looks and sounds like.

YES!!! Like Zelensky, show Trump what a man and a people's leader looks like!!

As soon as Trudeau or any other Canadian Liberal MP says, “Let me be crystal clear,” or refer to clarity, you can be sure that there is dishonesty happening! This guy has been working on Canada’s destruction for 9 years. He has given away Billions of taxpayers hard earned dollars to those of his choosing, as though it were his to give. He has been financially running Canada into the ground with the help of his financial advisor, Mark Carney. He has let The Canadian Armed Forces disintegrate for lack of funding, while choosing to refuse payment to NATO and those who help to defend Canada. He and his Government have been involved with billion dollar scandals and have become a major force of “Legalized Crime!” Now he wants to lay the blame for his poor leadership on the US. Unfortunately, many Canadians don’t see the truth! The Canadian News Media support the Government and suppress the truth by backing the Government Propaganda and by twisting the truth into untruth! It’s a childish game being played by an entitled child who doesn’t care about the people he was supposed to be leading. I would imagine, that if their Conservative Party Leader Poilievre wins the upcoming election, he will be able to straighten out many of the troubles that have been caused by the World Economic Forum Puppets and their agenda. I doubt that the Canadian People are in favor of the agenda of having nothing and being happy. What foolishness the elites expect people to believe. I’m sure that our Government will be able to get it all ironed out when Canada gets a leader that really cares about their people and not about those fake Carbon Taxes. It’s very interesting to watch what’s going on up in Canada! Interesting but sad, because they don’t have the ability to impeach a bad, unethical leader…

I’m Canadian. I’ve not been a fan of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the past, but he is the man for the moment and I’m so proud of him right now! Articulate, thoughtful, calm and firm. Exactly what a true leader should be. To my American neighbours: this is what leadership looks like. Bringing the country together,not tearing it apart??

This is what a real leader looks like.

Hey Donald, that's what it looks like to be a real leader. Take notes! Donald Trump is such an embarrassment and no, he's NOT a smart guy.

This is what a competent leader sounds like.

This is what a leader sounds like compared to our buffoon Russian clown trump

Whether you agree with him or not, this is what a real leader sounds like. Trump is a bully

This is what a national leader sounds like, not the illiterate, corrupt Russian-agent Trump, who is undermining our country because too many Americans can’t stand to have a woman in charge, so they elected a clown and his pet Elon to destroy America from within

This is what a real leader and a real man looks and speaks like

I wish Trudeau was our president. I hate what is happening in the U.S. because of Trump and his minions. Putin must be gleeful at the destruction of the U.S. and all of the favors that Trump has given to him. The American people do not want this horror show that Trump and Musk has orchestrated. The Trump cult is bringing the downfall of America in the world. We are no longer the 'home of the free and the brave', and Trump is no longer the 'leader of the free world'. America will diminish and become a small, petty, stupid, country. I am glad for Trudeau, and Micron, and the UK and all of the democratic countries and people. I feel horrible for what is happening to Ukraine because of Trump. Mr. Trudeau, you are a fine and wonderful person and head of your country. I wish that you could help us out of this madness. :(

American here. My father fought and died to protect our freedoms which allowed the US to forge relationships with our allies and bring peace to people around the world.thank you PM Trudeau for showing many what a true leader looks like and how to protect your people, unlike our shameless and idiotic leader. I stand with Canada, Ukraine and all countries that demonstrate true democracy

What a relief to hear a country leader not speaking like a gangster. The people of the USA support whatever retaliatory actions you must take. We are all going to suffer from this and we are really sorry for the irresponsible actions of our gangster prez Donald.

How stark the contrast is between Prime Minister Trudeau and Trump. Monsieur Trudeau, you are a true leader of your people. Trump, you are a true puppet of Putin. What shame he brings upon the people of the USA ?

This is what a leader who can read sounds like

Canadian here (NS): Not the biggest Trudeau fan the last couple years.. buuuut he is hands down more a world class leader of his country than trump every could be right now or ever in the future now. What a shitshow. Trudeau REITERATED the wall street journal's words.. dont spin it like trudeau just name called him out of the blue in the hopes to insite something else. Look INWARD (cough*trump*) and fix your shit. Remember these days my american friends.

Our people of America voting this damn guy into office, I don't get what was the appeal to have this type of leader for our nation. We are just in a sh^^ty place at this moment. This is not what America is about and sad to say this may be the destruction of our nation by having such poor leadership, how dare he spoke about Biden or Obama.

As a black female American we man, he has to do what he has to do and I applaud him for standing a a true leader. It’s going to be tough for us here, this government is selfish and this people voted him in now we all have to deal with this mess. I highly respect President Trudeau, a true leader

As an European I'm standing behind Canada and Mexico. America has voted a convicted criminal into the WH who always lies and only thinks about what is good for him. This is on the MAGA cult and those who didn't vote. Your so called leader is the biggest terrorist from within

Prime Minister Trudeau, you are a true leader. I lived in Canada many years ago and have friends there. I am so sorry about what my government is doing to Canadians. Please know this government does not represent all of us Americans.

This is what a sane and rational and compassionate leader sounds like - not Trump/Vance/Musk/Maga

Bravo!?????? I am an American and I stand with Canada. Leaders from other countries around the world should be as strong as your leader Trudeau! This message could not be more clear or direct. And I’m glad Trudeau didn’t call him with president in front of his name. trump doesn’t deserve it. He is a disgrace to America and exactly what America is not about. No one knows how he could get here But it’s a nightmare that we are trying to wake up from. Trump has spread cancer in America and we are fighting for our lives. We are deeply sorry for all the pain we are causing people around the world. This is our fight and we unfortunately are making it everyone’s problem. We need help, so thank you for everything you are doing.

That’s what a leader looks like??

This is what a true leader looks like !!!

Damn ive never seen a leader so scared. Cant wait to see what happens to Canada's economy a year from now.

This is what a sane logical leader sounds like...please watch this video Trump

What it must be like to have a stand up, compassionate yet serious person as your leader. I am truly jealous Canada.

I hate being an American. I did what I could but failed. Countrymen voted against it, and well .. we are now all in this hell together. Left stuck and upset at all of this. I am proud of Canada and wish we had a more capable leader. I am so sorry to everyone else. Know its not everyone in america follows the goons about.

Now this is a intelligent, wellspoken leader. It‘s just so sad and scary what the US is doing.

I almost forgot what an actual leader sounds like. It's sad that so many of my fellow Americans let fear mongering and hate take root in their psychy to the point they thought a barely literate megalomaniac was the best choice to lead the country. This is one of the rare being black in this country is a benefit. We're used to being overburdened and neglected, so it's nothing new to us. But, everyone else is in for a rough ride. Good luck.

Wow, this is what a LEADER is, hope you have support from Canadians, Thanks from Italy

This is what it looks like, when a country leader steps up for his flag and his people. It's refreshing to see, really!

Very well spoken Canada ‼️‼️‼️. What a great leader . Our hands are tied for now . They are evil‼️

Canada, my greatest respect to you. Thank you for doing what you have to do to do. I am hopeful that with world pressure such as yours, we can rid our country of trump and his followers. Thank you for staying strong and pushing back on our absolute embarrassment of a terrible leader.

I never thought that in my lifetime I would see, as I do now, the once might USA become a vassal state of Russia. How the mighty have fallen! What makes it worse is that the (new) US leader is in no way responsible to the US electorate and is a War Criminal as recognised by the International Criminal Court. President Putin is his name.\n\nLuckily, many Americans quite like this state of affairs.

What a complete idiot. As a Canadian I am ashamed to call this moron a leader. He was forced to resign but continues to embarrass us on the world stage. Deal with the terrorists, fentanyl and trafficking you creep.

Putin Russia warned as far back as 2009 or earlier Ukraine not join NATO to aim missiles on the Russia border, did it not? Zelenskyy is a puppet comedian fake leader selected by European globalists to do their bidding. Before the war the ppl of Ukraine are weary and tired of Ukraine government neo nazi ideology, terrible policies, their wealthy oligarchs and blatant corruption. US finally did admit Ukraine had toxic biolabs before mainstream and their political analysts denounce it vigoriously. Too late now, Ukraine will continue to lose the war with Zelenskyy as president. President Trump is in the WH. So what integrity some ppl claim our country had and lost... like in the last four years with a weak corrupt party president? Trudeau is goin out hopefully not soon enough. Lol.

It’s frustrating not to be able to hear the Prime Minister in the entirety of his speech. Americans need to see what a real leader sounds like : articulate, sincere, concerned for the citizens of both countries.

See Americans, this is what a real leader sounds like.

The reason for this 'trade war' is not about 'trade'. It's about 'creating chaos' so that president Trump is the 'centre' of world attention. A malignant naracistic individual apparently cannot have anyone seemingly to be 'doing better' or being more successful than he is. Canada ?? is a very successful nation and because of its economic success it is creating envy and apparently hatred in certain individuals who view the success of Canada ?? as a threat to themselves. The USA now apparently cannot see the value of a strong and stable economy as its near neighbours. Thats why apparently there are some who now want to crash the Canadian economy and when times then 'get tough' the blame and responsibility for this chaos will be accepted by whom. Presidents and Prime Ministers come and go. Once their 'term is over' they simply 'walk away'. World leaders need to be men or women of integrity and honesty who 'do the right thing'. With 'great power' comes 'great responsibility'. You only 'give responsibility' to someone who has the wisdom and expertise and understanding in order to both 'hold' and 'govern' wisely and without fear or favor. Maybe its time for others in positions of authority in other institutions to step in and 'take control'. You would never let a child drive a super car on the highway so how much 'damage' has to happen before a world leader is not 'held to account' and his 'hands removed' from the steering wheel before there is a motor accident so large that the freeway is rendered unless and has to be totally shut down your. You cannot have total power in the hands of individuals who apparently do not possess the necessary skills knowledge and experience and wisdom that is required to fulfil the role they were elected to fulfil. A person with the mind and mentality of a child apparently is not a fit person to be running the economy of any nation. May Canada ?? remember its roots and may we all be thankful for true and honest leaders who have integrity and do and say the right thing. Thank you Mr Prime minister. I trust that King Charles III has heard what his Canadian prime minister has said and what he is doing with total integrity.

What did I just watch? A democratically elected leader forming coherent sentences?! What sorcery is this?

What the heck is wrong with Trudeau? He should step down now and let the Next Prime Minister handle this situation. He's speaking like a leader going nowhere. Why does he pick Ministers who have nervous twitches like Mz Joly. Why is she twitching and moving all around??

Good response by Justin. Exactly what you want from a leader. Yet, most of the country can't wait to get rid of him. I really am not overly confident about the Liberal replacement or who will ultimately be running the country.

You big orange baboon, look what a real president looks like, what a real leader speaks like on world stage. Shame on you Trump voters, shame on you MAGAs for bringing misery & hardships worldwide.

This dude is spot on ?????? that’s what a real leader looks like

America , this is what a leader looks like, eloquent, smart, literate, honest. Not what you have skeaming, liar, treasonous, preditor and criminal. \n\nWhy republican voyers cannot see this disgusts me. If you cant see what damage he is doing. You are whats wrongbwith America , and you have no right to call yourself a patriot as you brought your own nations to its knees. Trust me America will fall under Trump and Vance.

Damn America!\nThis is what a leader sounds like

Let's not forget this leader froze the bank accounts of his political dissidents, and is driving the Canadian economy into the ground. What a mess this all is.
