I will miss my Prime Minister Trudeau. He speaks for me, and I know, many others . . . .we aren't interested in buying American goods. We aren't interested in visiting the states. We are focused, at this point, on our own economy. In the last month I have discovered a few gems, produced by local businesses within 100 miles of where I live. Healthier for my family, healthier for my economy. More expensive, yah, a little. But in the long run, it will make us a stronger economy, a stronger nation.

So very proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau!

Thank you, Justin Trudeau, Canadian Prime Minister, for acknowledging us, the American people. May God bless us all. ? ?

Proud of our prime minister. Canadians don't want this, but we also won't back down from a bully.

Proud Canadian here .. thank-you for such a wonderful speech Prime Minister Trudeau. To the world: thank-you for your messages of support. To the Americans: we've received supportive messages from so many of you as well, thank-you.

Trudeau is a clown, Canada needs us more than we need them. Good luck with your threats, you don’t dictate US policy, that’s how delusional and self centered you are Mr. Prime Minister.

So many NPC's in the comments. Justin is the worst prime Minister in Canada's history. He is weak, pathetic and a globalist puppet. The U.S. has all the leverage. Trump is doing a great job for Americans. Only the ones demoralized by fake news propaganda don't like it.

I know a lot of people don't care for Trudeau. I am actually pretty impressed with him, and on his way out, he is showing his strength and intelligence. He has Canada's back even in his last days as Prime Minister. Let's make sure we elect a Prime Minister who is equally strong and can stand up the narcissistic bully called Trump.

I don't understand why you all started babbling and didn't let us listen to the prime minister. All you did was repeat what he said over and over again each of you. You should have stuck with the news conference in Canada

Way to go Prime Minister Trudeau. Stay strong. Stay tough.\nCanada stand with your country

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau. It’s impossible to deal with narcissistic psychopaths. I must emigrate out off this fascist oligarchy. Whatever republicons are taking has dissolved their SPINES and turned their single brain cells into spam.

You're not our Prime Minister , you idiot. You quit! Why don't you go away?

I don’t think trump has the ears to understand what Prime Minister Trudeau is saying.

Don't be fooled by this wimp my American friends. Trudeau is a weasel and has killed Canada. I'm not a fan of Trump but he still has seen thru this bum and we deserve what we're getting because of his neglect and Woke policies for the last 10 years. he's as corrupt as a politician can get. So please wait til we get a leader in Canada that will get us back to a REAL partner with the US. An election is gonna happen real soon that will put a Prime Minister in place that will address the concerns of both of our countries and get things back to normal.....and it won't be Mark Carney!!!!!

Aloha Prime Minister, Trudeau, and Canadiens, the majority in this country can’t stand the current administration in our embarrassed, concerned, and want him out along with every MAGA moron selling this country out! I am so angry and disgusted! I apologize for our horrific leadership and I hope one day the people who are responsible for what is happening will be charged with sedition and espionage! I’ve had it. I stand with Ukraine Canada and the same citizens of this country who despise everything this current administration has done since they took office! You people who believe that Trump is this wonderful person and he’s doing wonderful things for America read a fucking history book!

Being it's come down to this division and dealing with Traitor Trump I am sure Trudeau's relieved his role as Prime Minister is quickly coming to an end.

if trudeau had a speech like this while he was in office he would stil;l be prime minister

Texan and Cold War veteran here. Canada has fought beside us in every major conflict and a number of small ones as well and has always been a good friend to the American people. I will do everything I can to support Canada and Ukraine and any other ally our current dis-administration attempts to bully. \n\nExcellent speech Mr. Prime Minister, you are what leadership and integrity look like and Canadians can be proud to call you their own. You are polite, we are not. You are loyal, we are not. You have guts, we currently do not. God keep your land glorious and free!

As American citizen I support Canadian prime minister.

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau for always working very hard for our country.

As a Canadian, thank you prime minister. We stand with you.

My heart hurts watching this. As an American, I respect and agree with Prime Minister Trudeau. Canada has been a kind and generous ally, and our current government leaders are just coming up with excuses for this stupid ass trade war. \n\nI am so sorry to all the Canadian citizens whom this negatively impacts. I hope you will show grace to those of us who voted against Trump and who continue to stand up to this tyrant.

Proud of Prime Minister Trudeau today ?? It's a very sad day for all of North America. So many people's lives are going to be negatively impacted

Proud of our Prime Minister and proud of Canada.??

I agree ?with U Mr Prime Minister ?

Bless you, Prime Minister Trudeau! I am so grateful, so very grateful for your stance.

Good speech, but still doesn't diminish the damages he brought as a prime minister

Aloha Prime Minister, Trudeau, and Canadiens, the majority in this country can’t stand the current administration in our embarrassed, concerned, and want him out along with every MAGA moron selling this country out! I am so angry and disgusted! I apologize for our horrific leadership and I hope one day the people who are responsible for what is happening will be charged with sedition and espionage! I’ve had it

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau from the U.S. Very kind words and extremely helpful information that we all need to hear from a political leader that is talking to us without all the rhetoric and childish behavior. DT is extremely wrong and ignorant. Many Americans stand with Canada, Ukraine and Mexico. God bless you and world peace for all of us.

Prime minister we know our leader(not) could care less about the citizens ofUS .it was all about staying out of jail period. We know if it comes out of his mouth it’s a lie. I apologize to your country. Would you like to annex California just asking only for four years.

He spoke so eloquently and respectfully. Some government officials could really learn from the Canadian Prime Minister.

True!! Prime minister, it's not us it's not you it is Trump

Yall are mad because America wants to play fair now, you're an ally not a state womp womp dont be mad when Americans prioritize their needs first. Tarrifs will make the lifes of all Americans better in the long run aka less taxes. Our country has been depleted and its time we woroked on ourselves. Prime example California? hole.

Very proud of our Prime Minister!!! The Trump administration is currently destroying America. Canadians and Americans have been working hand in hand for more than a century and it's so sad to see that a bunch of billionnaires are using lies and manipulation to get their way. I'm also very surprised to see that the Republican politicians are reacting like puppets. Let's hope that truth and common sense will soon prevail in the United States.

Trudeau is on his way out. Has five days left in office. He is very unpopular on both sides in Canada due to the state of things in Canada that have nothing to do with Trump. Obviously Americans commenting here aren’t aware of that. \n\nThe last thing most Canadians want Trudeau to do is publicly agitate Trump and make things difficult for the next prime minister.

We salutes you prime Minister.

I am a conservative. I didn't used to watch Trudeau's speech. But this was the best speech of our Prime Minister. No shouting, no anger. I watched it 2 times.

Thank you Prime Minister for the amazing speech! We will be fine. Canadians are very strong ?

Americans who are listening to\n\nCould you please tell your premier Trump\nTo quit referring to our PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU \nAs a Governor\n\nVERy DISRESPECTFUL\nBut than again it’s coming from the Biggest Dictator in the world\n\nGOD BLESS CANADA\nKEEP CANADA GREAT\nTHE GREATEST FREE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD \n✝️??✝️??✝️??✝️??

Just stay as prime minister, ffs. We need you as one of the sane world leaders.

I admired your father, prime premier Pierre Trudeau. You're just a chip off the block. ?? Great job ❤

Thank You Prime Minister Trudeau!\nWe Love Canada!\nWe are So Sorry that the criminal in the White House has brought us to this moment with our neighbors!\nMerci Beaucoup Prime Minister! \nOur hearts are broken!\n???

Prime Minister Trudeau, please be aware that Americans the majority of the Americans today do not stand with this…. I truly believe most Americans have woke up they had the FAFO and do not condone him aligning himself with Putin. You’ve been more respectful by even calling him Donald because I call him either this or 45. Thank you for being true our true allies to America.

Trudeau will go down as one of Canada’s worst prime ministers. Under his leadership, the country has seen skyrocketing inflation, a housing crisis, out-of-control immigration, rising crime, and a worsening opioid epidemic. He’s divided Canadians, mismanaged major issues, and made life more expensive for everyone. Sadly, the damage he's done will take years for the next federal government to fix!!!

I have never been so ashamed to be an American ? It’s like Trump is trying to hurt as many innocent people as he can. He is abusing nice people like the Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau. He is hurtful to the Mexicans and immigrants as well. I was so angry with the way the Trump administration ganged up on and bullied the nice, strong Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. I loathe the Trump administration. Trudeau and Zelenskyy are vastly superior to Trump and everyone in his administration.

Thank you thank you Prime Minister Trudeau!!

i know PRIME MINISTER I AM THINKING ABOUT MOVING TO CANADA I LOVE Y'ALL AND HAVE FAMILY THERE

This idiot is no longer our prime Minister

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau!! \nYou are definitely OUR FRIEND!!!

I love you Prime Minister Justine Trudeau???
