Shut up nobody likes you Trudeau

As an American, Trudeau, as he mentioned in his speech, is no friend of mine. These tariffs aren't going to hurt me any more than the last 4 years in america has under democrat leadership. I lost family to fentanyl, I lost my job due to terrible democrat economic policies. I lost my home. I lost my savings. I lost all hope of ever owning a home. Im losing my mother to what I am sure was the jab. I've got nothing left to take. Tariffs aren't going to hurt me. Liberal policies, from people just like Trudeau, have destroyed my life. I want to see him in ruins.\n\nI feel for the citizens of Canada. I don't care what liberal news media says- I know that Canadian people want him gone too.

Im Canadian and let me tell you, the hatred for Trudeau was everywhere. And Pierre Polieve was a shoe in. Since Trump started all this trade war stuff, a lot of us are looking at Trudeau differently. Its almost like Trump is doing this to make us Canadians like Trudeau again lol

Trudeau, Zelensky and Sheinbaum are what integrity, courage and leadership looks like. Trump is a just pathetic bully who has no idea what these words even mean.

Please keep in mind, that all the issues we have in Canada are because of Trudeau. He's been in power for almost a decade. The widespread drug abuse and crime is because of him being weak on policy and handing out drugs like candy paid by tax payers. More people died from fentanyl in Canada than our soldiers in WWII. That is all on his watch. He is only making these changes because of Trump. What kind of a leader is Trudeau to only become Canada first when a person from outside the country threatens him? He is a horrible leader and a traitor to the Citizens and the Country we call Canada. Regardless of what his speech is, he cannot be trusted with his globalist agenda. He has stepped down (thank goodness!!) and Canada is looking forward to having Pierre Poilievre as our PM.

Trudeau think Trump never thought of anything like that.Trump plays chess while you play, checkers.

so.. you came up with a “plan”. Just like you said “the budget will balance itself”. \n\nYou must have missed how the US immediately took ACTION securing their own border. \n\nPlans and words from Trudeau mean nothing.

I thought Canadians hated Trudeau ? Or is their hate for Trump grater like brainwashed Americans?

Trudeau is Big Mad. Trudeau is a Puppet Prime Minister, like Biden was, and stepping and fetching for the foreign interest who actually control Canada. Basically, Canada's Government has made policies and taken steps that imposed US Tariffs on Canada. You will need to thank Justin Trudeau, an authoritarian leader who is currently Dictator of Canada.

Don't buy Canadian Bacon, Maple Syrup and other Canadian goods. Canada is NOT the closest ally of the US and has long in fact been like the Karen nation of North America who is massively passive aggressive to the US, and outright hatred for the US is rampant among many Canadians. 25 percent 155 billion which is dwarfed by the trade imbalance of the many billions more of Canadian goods that go to the US, mostly it is American Alcohol that goes to Canada, to fuel the drunks of Canadian society, so Homeless alcoholics in Canada might truly suffer. How is more sobriety a bad thing Trudeau? This might be fantastic for people who drink alcohol to make a break with the booze they have been needing. \n\nThe rest of us, who don't buy Canadian goods nor own or invest in American alcohol won't feel anything. In fact we pay more for mailing stuff to Canada from the Canadian postal service. \n\nWe learned not to mail stuff to Canada. We are ok now living with that limitation.

Mr. Trudeau, As an American who has never voted for Trump, I apologize for the person we currently have in the White House, and wish Canada and Mexico the best. Do what you have to do, and hopefully it will cause enough disruption that Trump will have to retreat. Most of us consider Canadians and Mexicans our friends. A lot of people in the US are contacting our representatives in Congress, participating in economic boycotts, and joining groups like the ACLU that are bringing lawsuits against some of the actions that have already occurred. God bless Canada and Mexico!

I don’t like Trudeau. I don’t like the way his country is suffering under his rule - by that I mean the poverty the Canadians are living in whilst he takes expensive vacations and eats 5 star food - and I agree more with the opposition. I also don’t like the black face joke he pulled years ago. But in this instance, against the trump administration, I fully support and agree with what he is saying. This is the stupidest trade war in history. This is going to screw up all countries involved. Stand for democracy!

This American, who's been proud to be one all his, life (but not so much these last few weeks)stands with Canada, Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the besieged Ukraine, and I do not support's authoritarian rule and and stupid, ego-driven economic wars with our neighbors and allies. Trudeau is what a real leader sounds like.

Why can’t the US have a President like Trudeau?

Like Trudeau cares about his fellow Canadians! What an asshole! Trudeau's just as bad as Biden, actually worse!

What a difference. Trudeau acts like a man. Trump acts like an evil android programmed to serve sociopathic billionaires.

How can you listen to a bloke like Donald Trump and even remotely consider him in the same ball park as Trudeau? The entire US administration wouldn't be able to match this man's intelligence. Republicans man. The world's loudest and stupidest people.

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau for telling it like it is.

I'm a Canadian who has always voted for Prime Minister Trudeau and I will continue to vote liberal. I heard a person on the Jake Tapper, C NN, this afternoon say all the companies are coming to the USA not Canada, he didn't mention that they come because they don't have to pay a lot of taxes. Us Canadians take great offense that the spawn of the devil wants to annex our country and he refers to our Prime Minister as governor. The orange dumb criminal and his maggots would probably give part of our country to snakehead war tyrant putin who has interest in the Artic and that would involve Greenland. We Canadians don't want to make life difficult for the American people but the dumb evil cheeto likes tariffs. President Zelenski didn't start the war and he won't be the one to start WW3. putin is a war criminal who controls the criminal organization in the White House and it's leader. President Zelenski be careful the spawn of the devil ? and war tyrant can't be trusted. ?????

Corrupt Trudeau is not our friend !! He is Joe Biden Jr and a liar ! We like the Canadian people but Trudeau and liberals have to be ousted in Canada ! We will not support socialist communists like Trudeau, Starmer, Macron, Schultz and other such leaders !

I'll still buy your products! I wish we had a leader who could speak like an intelligent adult. Bravo, President Trudeau!

Donald J. Trump is the best President EVER! I love President Trump. Thanks God for Trump. As for Ukraine, that shouldn't even have been a priority for America. Ukraine should have nurtured better relations with all its neighbors, and especially with Russia, and not try to drag the world into a needless WW3. Btw, why is Trudeau still in offoce? His dad was a proud communist. Just like his dad, Trudeau has communistic tendencies.

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.

This what leadership looks like. Too bad the US doesn't have this. ? Canada def with you and appreciate how Prime Minister Trudeau addressed. This is sad and is going to hurt EVERYONE.??

Trudeau you do not mention the reasons why. You have been KILLING AMERI ZNS BECAUSE YOU ALLOW DRUGS TO COME OVER YOUR BOARDER. \nYOU SOUND LIKE A Demoncrate looser. Do Better!

Lifetime Republican here - until the afternoon of Jan 6, 2021that is. I'm also a disabled US vetaran. I wish our president had any of the strong leadership qualities that Trudeau has. Instead we cose to elect a traitorous grifter intoxicated with power who habitually spews lies that his cult members gobble up like candy. The 2020 election was stolen..yep yep yep, the dictator Zelenskyy started the invasion...yep yep...wait what? Wake Up America!

OK woke Trudeau, who is about to get replaced - remove tariffs targeting US businesses for the last 3 decades, like the 200%+ tariff on dairy products from USA, then we can talk\n\n...and YES we will deal with Russia because they are the only country who didn't take a red cent of aid from USA - their fertilizer is far cheaper than Canada's fertilizer.\n\nI'm speaking to Canadians - especially the truckers whose bank accounts Trudeau froze - vote out the woke Canadian government!\n\nAs far as CNN goes, you are traitors - you would betray USA because the dummy you wanted to win failed against Trump.\n\nThe stock market going down has far more to do with short supply of chips - that is why tech companies were hit heaviest. Last time I checked, Canada doesn't make chips.

I start liking Trudeau more and more

Sure wish the US republicans president could speak intelligently like Trudeau. Donald is selling out the US!

Can you imagine if Trump was articulate like Trudeau? Lol ?

I wish our leader was more like Trudeau......Trump is a huge liar.....he does not care about the actual people in America!

Trudeau you are starting to sound like Trump, act more like a Canadian that’s why we want you gone!

I applaud our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. He comes in strong, clear, no flourishes. No shade of weakness at all. Specially when he was addressing Trump directly. Polite like a true Canadian but pointed. Too bad, he won't be our PM after next week.

Trump make America great again you're the best lider Trudeau is like Democrats

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.

Trudeau is on his last days as Prime Minister for a reason, but this at least sounds like a real leader. Donald, take note.

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

So proud of our PRIME MINISTER Trudeau. Thank you for calling him donald and telling it like it is! I have NEVER referred to donald as president and NEVER WILL. He is no president. He is not worthy of such a title, never will be. America belongs to the enemy now, allies no more.

I find it particularly effective that Canada is focusing on red state America. Kentucky alcohol is just one example. Prime Minister Trudeau is also targeting those issues that they can most effectively respond, like electricity in the norther tier, LNG (shifting to EU). Trump is screwing over our closest and greatest allies, in deference to Putin, a war criminal.

Here's my issue with Trudeau ...you now placed your country in a position where this becomes a game of tariff chicken. This won't end well for Canada no matter what tariffs you try to envoke to counter Trump. The U.S. aren't dependent on Canada. So, what is your real endgame here matching the tariffs? Is that what the people of Canada really want to get into? Doesn't seem smart to me. It just looks like a lazy game of posturing trying impose some front like the U.S. need to back down from Canada. What a joke.

When I studied economics years ago were studied trade, tariffs and isolationism. Trade always came out on top in our simulation models. I don't like Trudeau but he is right here and articulate.

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.

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.

Govenor Trudeau lol. Yall should move to Canada and find out how ya like it. Dont talk smack, step up and head north if they so great.

I wish we had a leader like Trudeau in the US.

he is not going to war with you you dope, it's just a tariff, not even a trade war like he did with China, Trudeau, grow up!!\nhe is not appeasing with Putin, he's not at war with them, he wants to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine, what's da madder with u!?

I'll say what Prime Minister Trudeau couldn't say.\n\nThe US President and half of the nation's population are modern day Nazi's. They blame 'outsiders' for their problems. They fund genocide and advocate for ethnic cleansing. They blame their economic woes on other nations and attack erstwhile allies. They threaten to annex other nations.\n\nThese are all things that Adolf Hitler did in Germany. The similarities are remarkable. \n\nCanada is strong and most importantly, united. There's no question that we will get through this.\n\nThe United States is weak and incredibly divided. I fear for the chaos that is to come and for the other half of the population that are not Nazi's. This is what it was like to live in 1930s Germany.

This is what happens when Canada has a spinless dictator leader like trudeau. If we Canadians had a real leader we wouldn't be pushed around.

Suddenly he want to fight drugs while for past years you legalize every possible drug i Canada. You should be ashamed of yourself Trudeau. When Trump wanted to put tarrifs on Canada you were gone to Portugal apart of making a deal with the guy. Now you cry like a little guy and blaming Trunp for everything while you wasnt even here to negotiate and you shut down Canadian government for your own partisan purpose and government does not exist right now in Canada just because you afraid of loosing election so you just trying to survive as a PM for as long as possible. Not trump but YOU destroyed Canada and its economy and making Canadians life harder and harder and spending our tax money all over the world
