I am an American in Alabama. I do not support trump, and I apologize for his horrid actions. What he is doing is not in the best interest of the US, but in support of Putin.

Thank you for separating the american people from the very small percentage of those in the White House administration behind these actions. Most americans are not in agreement with any of what's coming out of the president's office. He's lost sight of what American really stands for - and that his role, along, with those of his administration, are paid servants. Obligated to SERVE every citizen of their country - including representing and fulfilling the wishes of the people they serve. Whether they like all the people or agree with the needs of all the people. The people of our country don't want what's happening with Canada, Mexico or Ukraine. Or Russia for that matter. As an American i apologize. God bless us all!

From the Midwest U.S, I support Canada and Mexico! We don’t want tariffs. We want ALL our economy to prosper! Not to crash them down! Otherwise, if we place tariffs, ALL OF US will be hurt. ALL COUNTRIES. ALL citizens regardless of income levels will feel it. \n\nRising egg prices? Just tonight (as of the evening of March 4) he blames it on Biden and the administration when he’s not even the president! I cannot believe we voted for a president who points fingers rather than taking accountability. \n\nAs an American, I only want to apologize to the world for voting for this bully (I never voted for him, but he won anyways.) I wish you all the best.

American here. I am on a limited income (Social Security) but I 100% support Canada & what Canada needs to do to counteract the actions of our incompetent, insane 'President'. Go Canada! We not-insane Americans salute you & apologize for our 'Orange Menace'. We look forward to when our governments can be friends again. Our two peoples will always be Friends! (I have family there also.) P.S. The drug issue is a fake issue on the part of the Trump Administration. We all know it's the market that drives illegal drugs-- i.e. our own drug abusers buying this stuff. Cheers, & With Hopes for a Better America. (And Slava Ukraine!)

I'm an American whose ancestors came here in the 1700s. I apologize and I did not vote for Trump who should have been put in prison a long time ago. Everyday he does something against our constitution. Even an idiot gets it right sometime. But he is not a complete idiot. He is an evil savant.

So pathetic. CBC our Canadian so called news has turned off any comments. Trudeau does not speak for the majority of Canadians. Our parliament is closed, he and his lackeys refuse to call an election. I would like to talk to my American friends. I apologize for this narcissistic lackey who has driven our country into the ground for the last 9 years.

Hey Canadians, on behalf of the good people in America... I apologize for the ignorance and stupidity of one EMBARRASSING excuse of a leader that is not only sticking it to Americans in every way you can think ... I refuse to call him a president because he is NOT... He is a convicted felon, convicted on 34 felonies. He is a fraudster, a cheater, a LIAR, a thief, and a THUG! He is not a legal president because he cheated to get elected in the first place because he cheated in 2016 by having his Russian friends interfer in our election by smearing, and launching the wikileaks ĺeak that She had emails from her secratary of state days on an unsecured computer at the DNC Hillary Clinton, merely weeks ahead of the 2016 election.\nTrump also incited a seditious insurection in 2020 after losing that election failing his attempted coup to sieze power in an election he LOST! Donald Trump and many of the GOP that ran for thier lives on Jan. 6th 2021 now refer to the insyrection as a peacful gathering of non violent protesters... Trump calls it the best day ever!!! Think about that for a minute! The very first order of business Trump did after his inauguration was to pardon 1500 crimina convicts that either plead guilty or were found guilty of charges like sedition. And insurectionists. Many of them for violent crimes like battery on a police officer. And other charges loke trespassing on a federal building, and theft charges for stealing laptops and all sorts of things.\nDonald Trumps first act was to free all of them with a wave of a pen... he freed police bashers!!! And scum bags like Elmer Rhoads, and leader of the proud boys Enrique Tarrio... and all tge violent punks that tried to overturn a free and fair election!!! I is disgusting! HE a k so pardoned the biggest drug dealer in America that catered to criminals and murderers, the owner and inventer of the silk roads dark web site.\nTrump is a Russian asset, make no mistake about it. And fir the last 40 days or so he set about to burning down all American institutions with the help of his Billionaire campaign donors that agreed to get him elected for MORE MONEY!!! Trump is turningvon our trusted allies all friends, and siding with countries like Russua, North Korea, Iran, Turkey, and other countries that are under the control of string men autocrats, and dictators! He publicly called our friend and ally Vlidomir Zelenskyy a dictator! While at the same time calling Vladimir Putin a genius, and a really smart guy that wants peace he says!\nVladimir Putin is the worlds most cold blooded mass murderer of our lifetime and he is a war criminal that kills mostly civilians, women and children deliberatly!!! He poisons his political opponents and business partners with plutonium and other ways like having them thrown out a high ruse window, or shit from the sky in an airplane!!!\nDonald Trump is a maniac that Ameruca needs to desperately get rid of before he finishes the job of burning down all our institutions and burning our constitution and democracy in order to turn Ameruca into an autocracy...\nSo, Canadians.... we Americans are deeply embarrassed and we apologize for the reckless behavior of one man!! One ignorant man... Donald Trump. There has never been a more shameful and embarrassing time to be an American! Eff Trump!!!

I apologize for the American administration. I am embarrassed to be an American at this time. ?

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 APPLUAD YOU, PRIME MINISTER MR. TRUDEAU\nAND AS AN AMERICAN I WANT YOU TO KNOW I STAND WITH CANADA??, MEXICO THE UK & EUROPE. NOT RUSSIA. \nI BACK THE UKRAINIANS ??\nGOD BLESS YOU\nGOD BLESS ALL OF US.\nI APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING AN IDIOT IN THE WHITEHOUSE.

As a Kamala voter and as an American who loves Canada, I apologize for the hideous manner in which my government is treating our neighbor and ally. I will be protesting and doing what I can to stop Trump and Musk from destroying our democracy and our friendships around the world. I wish Canada all the prosperity and health possible in the future and I hope someday you will be able to forgive our nation for the damage that the idiots running this country are causing for you and many other of our allies as well, with their ignorant tariffs and bullying tactics. Someone needs to punch Trump in the nose, good and hard, so he knows that not everyone will back down when one acts like a pushy jerk. He is not a strong man, he is a lily livered, weak willed, draft dodger who just happened to be born to a wealthy father. Best of luck! We will miss you by our side . . . . ???☮

As a 69 year old American who’s father served in the liberation of Europe with our Canadian Allies, I apologize for our poor excuse or a president, man or human being. This moron is trying to destroy our world order.

I apologize to Canada for the unnecessary provocation to a long time friend and neighbor. As an American, I am horrified . May we be free of this nightmare soon

Dear Canadians, Americans love you! Our heart is breaking. Why can’t we have a president with manners and dignity?\n\nAs a Daughter of the American Revolution and a veteran I want to apologize for my country. \n\nI’m not sure how everyone can be so fooled by this man who I knew was a lecherous thug the first time I saw him back in the 90s. When he was dying to sit at Elaine’s table, but she wouldn’t have him. Everyone knows he’s scum.

And also i want to give Justin Trudeau the credit of a great speech. Its a breath of fresh air. I stand with everyone whos on the side of right and just peaceful interactions.

As an American, I want to apologize to Canadians for this completely unnecessary crisis. tRump (aka Krasnov) is obviously working with Russia to dismantle the US. Thank you for standing up to this egregious violation of the Oath of Office and the trust of the American people (not that I ever trusted this traitorous mob). I applaud your actions!

I almost feel like I need to apologize to the world for the moron that is in the White House. It’s sad when you’re ashamed to be an American.

It's sad that Donald Trump, the president of the United States of America need other men to make him look so-called strong! The United States of America is a Latin stock and I want the rest of the world to know that the American people did not vote for this, do not want this, and to be honest with that we do not want Donald Trump in South Africa can take Elon Musk back because we don't want him either, actually emblemas can go f*** himself!

As an American citizen (sadly) i apologize for the baboon-fest in our whitehouse. the monkeys took over because of the mentally instable voters and vote-buying scammers who brought this on. MOST of us did not vote for this tragedy. but now we must attempt to survive this. not even God can help us!

I am an American. I want the world to know that Trump doesn't speak for all of us. I am ashamed that stupidity won the last election. I apologize to Canada, Mexico, and the free world for Trump. Resist, Stay Calm and Carry On. American will return

I am a patriotic American. I apologize to Canada for what Trump has put Canada through and what he intends to do to Canada in the future. All I can say is that there are many people who wish Trump out of office and are doing what they can to achieve that end. So sorry Canada. I hope one day you can forgive Americans for allowing this monster to seize and exercise the power of the presidency.

Prime Minister Trudeau is far, far, far above the likes of Donald Trump. As an American citizen I apologize to the rest of the free world for our political and moral failures. Please be patient with us as we work to excise this political cancer from our culture. It may be a long haul but I keep my hopes high.

Isn’t it the canadian border bigger than the US with Mexico? And they got a better protection plan. Cani move to Canada? They are very nice people. I have met many canadians in cruises.

As an American I apologize to Canada and the world for the actions of our government. I and my immediate family never voted for Trump. Good Luck ? to all of us.

I am absolutely embarrassed to be an American. On behalf of the millions of Americans who were mentally weak enough to vote for this steaming pile of a presidential administration, I want to sincerely apologize to the countries in the world who are dedicated to promoting democracy, and decency, and opposing 12-year-old childish bullying, tyranny, and dishonesty. To my fellow Americans who were stupid enough to be dupped by this cesspool sitting in power in the white house, STOP BEING IDIOTS AND PULL YOUR HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES before we become a dictatorship with a puppet ruler lead by another dictator!!!!!!!

I'm an American veteran who served for 40 years in the military, and I'm proud I did. But this thing that's in the White House makes me ashamed to be an American. Please don't think real Americans support this ass. It's the slow witted people who only come out of the hills when they want to attack our Capital. We apologize for these people. Please pray for us. It's in God's hands now.
