This man is telling the truth! I STAND WITH CANADA . I’m a US ARMY VETERAN AND IM ASHAMED OF WHAT THE ADMINISTRATION IS DOING . Canada please give us to time to contact our government. It’s very dumb . It’s what Russia want , the enemy . Mr. president(Canada ) THANKS FOR BEING A GREAT LEADER .

I can't stand CNN = Communist News Network, and I don't care for Trueau but I'm going to have to stand with him on this. Trump is being absolutely rediculous that is going to hurt the poor and working class poor in both countries, Canada as well as America. I sincerely appologize to the Canadian people because my President who said he would make America great again has instead lost his mind and has went off on some insane tangent that will not hurt him or his rich friends (On both sides of the political fence).....Now Mexico that is where the garbage is coming from.

To the Canadian people: I will look out and specifically purchase Canadian goods over American goods as a sign of disagreement with the American President. Mr. Trump is only out for HIMSELF! Most Americans know this. I don't believe in conspiracy theories, but I'm starting to believe that Russia DID interfere with our election, and Trump is that result! I'm utterly DISGUSTED with what they're doing. I stand with UKRAINE ?? and with Canada ?? as well as all our Allies! We need to impeach that Maggat in the Oval!

As an American, I stand with Canada. We have the biggest dumb ass bully as our president and it’s shameful. The people who voted for that orange turd can suffer. It’s so dumb to impose tariffs on our closest allies. Ordinary Americans will suffer because of this.

Lol love how he said “Donald” and not “President Trump.” Perfect for a ? deserving of NO respect. Barely 2 months in office and this ? is already turning us into an isolated, reviled nation seen as nothing but a gang of mercenary bullies by the rest of the sane world. I’m an American and I turn my back on this madness. I stand with sanity, justice and truth. I stand with Canada and Ukraine. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I stand with President Trump, promises made, promises kept. It’s hard to make change in the beginning, but this is the face of change!

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 ❤

Canada, the American people stand with you. Personally I wish that Justin Trudeau was our president! Although I have to disagree with you, Trump is not at all a smart man. In fact he is the exact opposite. He is an imbecile! Undoubtedly, he is the worse thing that has ever happened to to the United States! The people of America needs to get rid of Trump!\n\nBut thank you, Justin Trudeau, for standing up for Canada and all of your reactions is just! Continue to defend your country. You are doing an outstanding job!

I'm an American and I stand with my President. The rest of you should pack up and go to Canada or Ukraine

Well said. I love the USA, I have relatives who live there and in all the years of a beautiful relationship with the people of America I have never seen this situation. Mr. Trump you seem to want to conquer and divide relationships at any cost, even with people who care about you. You sabotage yourself and those who are loyal to you. I'm not sure if you understand the implications of your decisions. But I will say respectfully, there are no winners in a trade war, nor is it you that has the final say on the worlds outcome. This is God's world not yours and not ours. I'm really disappointed to see American people and Canadians hurting because of whatever the point of all of this means. But Canada is strong and we will stand up for our country. The American people are strong and they were strong before you became the President. Working together, we can take care of each other for our families and our country.

US Army veteran here, I stand with the US and our President.

I don't care what side of the fence you sit on. I did not need to hear this man speak to already know Canada was, but may yet be, our greatest ally and trading partner. I have no idea what possessed Mr. Trump to decide to stab our allies in the back, but it was not something good. 27.5% of voting age adults voted for him. How many of them were serenaded by hollow promises and a good slogan. Perhaps all of the mud slinging and Russian media interference helped? If you add in our more studious teenagers, truly reformed felons, and immigrants who actually deserve a gold card, that number plummets to less than 25%. I won't ask people to wake up, if you are reading this you are already more than capable of finding out that I speak only the hard truth. This means less than a quarter of america wanted this. This means your vote and opinions DO count. I know it is incredibly difficult to reach for and find answers in a world where your president or primary candidate throws 'fake news' in your face on a regular basis. He is actually telling the truth. When he is not telling you is that he is a primary enabler of 'fake news'. To him, only his word is law, only his opinion matters, only he deserves to be on top, and he deserves authority over all of your lives. Do the right thing, we all have a civil duty to understand our candidates to the very best of our ability. When a man has been convicted of dozens of felonies, and we tell you that this is only what we were willing to expose. You may want start believing us. The genuine facts of his past are unilaterally corrupting to our children and good people alike. Do not let the american people repeat their mistakes, force Mr. Trump to atone for his mistakes. No not empower him to sweep them under the rug for the sake of his own arrogance, because that is exactly what he is doing by trying to dismantle the CIA and FBI. These two institutions are shining examples of America's pursuit of freedom and justice. Freedom to keep billionaires from corrupting the morals of our children. Freedom to know that the rule of law is immutable, our constitution is not just a paper with fancy traditional sentiment. Even if the law may sometimes be bent for the sake of decency, forgiveness, and the pursuit of 'united we stand', our constitution cannot. Amendments require the FULL support of nearly all Americans, not 27.5% of unrestricted adults.

I speak as a Californian. I am so, so terribly sorry, Canada. I never voted for tRump, ever. I hate him in every way. This is all so heartbreaking. ?? Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, for standing up for your entire country. Our president is destroying America and handing us over to Russia. ? I stand with Canafa, Ukraine, Mexico and democracies of the world.

Wonderful to hear Canada's response to the bully Trump. President Trudeau response to global issues is measured, articulate and informed compared to the ignorant, bombastic self serving purposes of Donald Duck (AKA Donald Trump/ USA president) rants!!.\n Stand strong Canada, you have leverage (higher exports of power energies) to the US with your natural resources. In Ireland we recognize a huge differential between the morals of the USA versus Canada ( but some times get confused with the accents). I am with you Canada. Every best wish with your endeavors and thank you for supporting the EU.

I am absolutely outraged what Trump is doing. We the People of the United States as A Democrat never Voted for a Felon to the Whitehouse. Trump wanted to be President so he wouldn’t do Time. \nHe won’t even disclose what is in the Epstein Files because he was part of it. He had these young girls at Mar O Lago. \nI STAND WITH UKRAINE, PALESTINE, CANADA, MEXICO AND ALL EUROPEAN LEADERS TO STAND UP TO TRUMP AND HIS IDIOTIC VICE PRESIDENT WHO WAS NOTHING BUT A WAR PHOTOGRAPHER AND DID NO COMBAT FIGHTING HE OVER FLATED HIS MILITARY RECORD. AS A FORMER NAVY CORPSMAN DEPLOYED TO OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM AND OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOMS I SAW WHAT ROLE EVERYONE PLAYED. WE CAN PROTECT OURSELVES AND THE UNIT BY FIRING OUR WEAPONS BUT WILL NEED TO GIVE LIFE SAVING CARE. \nTrump Needs to see how he is treating leaders in these countries and I tell Canada Turn the Power off in New York and any other State to prove a point and charge leaders an exorbitant amount of money for using Fuel from Canada.

I’m from the u.s and I stand with Canada !!! Get trump out of here!!!!! Worse president in the history of presidency

I’m sorry our president is a dickhead!! It’s not the USA but him…I stand in solidarity with you!

To be clear for others, when Trudeau says 'they chose this' and pretty much every other time he uses the word 'they'... He means DJT, the moskow-mole currently occupying the office of US presidency. I stand with our allies, I hope in the coming years they can forgive us. Every day the moskow-mole is president makes it harder for these scars to mend. Wake up America and remember your founding by removing kings/dictators.

President Trump is the best American President ever. I stand with Trump. He has done a lot of good things. He doesn't take any countries B.S.

Texan here. If I was Canada, I would have put a 30% Tariff against the U.S. Canada didn’t start this Fight, Trump did!!!!!!! U.S. Air Force Combat Unit Veteran, and I stand with all of NATO and Ukraine, and I can’t forget our Freinds on the Southern Border Mexico. Americans will always be Friends with Canada, you should be very proud of your Prime Minister, or President?

I wish this man was the American president. My American government is scaring me and our lives are falling apart. I stand with Canada and the rest of the sane world. I hope this changes soon..

F u Trudeau! F u canada. I LOVE MY PRESIDENT…STAND WITH HIM TO THE LAST BREATH ^

America here: I love Canada. Trump is demonic and we want him, vance, musk impeached. We want Republicans voted out. I stand with President Zelensky and all the countries that love and support him. I voted for VP Kamala Harris and I hope she will be inaugurated once Trump is removed.

I am american and ashamed of this president i didnt vote for. I stand with canada, ukraine, the and the uk .

As an American, I stand with Canada and Ukraine. We will tighten our pockets as well. What this administration is doing is destructive. The president does not care about America, he only cares about being king.

He talks as if there's no trade imbalance. Us goods going into canada at a higher rate. A good neighbor doesn't allow fentanyl and illegals into our country. The usa does not need canada. The usa is the third largest in population. The usa is its own ecosystem. The usa needs nothing from canada. I stand with President Trump and Made in USA.

As an American I stand with Canada and the Ukraine. I am ashamed of trump , he should not be president. He is a disgrace as a human being.

I have a feeling that there’s going to be a civil war, thousands of workers laid off, inflation, veterans and federal workers jobs are gone, the very people who voted for trump were fired by him, farmers are abandoned now, and many people stand with gaza, and also zelensky , even the cartels are putting a target on the president , along with axed c.i.a. ,f.b.i. workers,so in other words… pressure is building and i guarantee its going to be a reverse january 6th, and don’t think that russia , iran, china and north korea is waiting for the opportunity to do us in, because we may be the most powerful country, but.. at one point, egypt, and rome were also.

I stand with President Trump I stand to protect Americans from the drug war that are killing 200 Americans per day. Justin Trudeau is going out the door he’s just wagging his tail

Please don't categorize us all with President Toupee. I stand with you Canada! We will see you in 4 years God willing. I pray that you don't hold what the administration does against the American citizens who didn't want or ask for this.

That criminal president is ruining our country. I stand with Canada all the way. I'm sorry for our shitty government and not proud of united states.

3rd generation American here, I too stand with Canada, the UK, Mexico and Europe, not with Russia, China or the communist worshiping president that I did NOT vote for. This is what happens when people are too chicken to vote for a female President who's already been Vice President and has more integrity in the tip of her pinky than trump & musk have combined. trump and his cabinet should be removed for treasonous acts, tried , and jailed. They've weakened the security of our country.

Greetings from California! I stand with all of our friends in Canada, Mexico and China! I did not vote for this catastrophe but am definitely feeling the pain of these horrendous tariffs. My heart is with our friends up North and I hope you understand that many of us here in the US did not want this. We are plagued with a complete nut case for a President who was given the ultimate power of house and Senate majority plus the Supreme Court so there is no fix for the nightmare in the near future. All I can say is I am sorry for what we all have to endure now.

As an American, I am totally appalled that Donald Trump is our elected president putting himself & his selfish agenda ahead of the American people. Allowing people like Elon Musk, who is not a government employee to run amok in this country doing what he pleases when he pleases under the guise of ridding our country of wasteful spending, without any type of oversight. I am appalled at the GOP that refuses to stand up to Trump for the people they swore an oath to serve faithfully because they are so afraid of what Trump will do to them if they don't bow down and do his bidding. Shame on every doggone one of you for putting yourselves first before our great country. I am appalled of all of the people who voted for Trump, you are all going to find out. This isn't some tv reality show, and we all deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. Choosing to turn your back on our friends and ally's isn't going to go well and the American people are going to suffer because of it.

American here. I stand with our Canadians brothers and sisters. I’m so embarrassed we have President Turd in the office. That orange clown needs to go! ?❌

That’s right stand up for your country president Trudeau. Donald Trump is a big ass liar. I have been to Canada several times. And I know for a fact it’s gonna be very very very very hard to bring drugs up out of Canada to United States. Canada is a wonderful lovely country. You’re doing right not to deal with a evil man. He’s just using the Tarniff law to try to put extra money in his pocket and they trying to con the other countries out of their money.Lying to the American people make them think it’s another reason why he’s doing the Tarniff law . He’s a habitual liar, and a con man and a thief.I wouldn’t do no business with him at all he cannot be trusted. If a man will betrade his own country he will betrade anybody. Who ever in United States they pick up a gun or try to hurt the Canadians any kind of way it’s a damn fool. In the truck started a war with Canada with him in office I would rather fight for Canada then fight for him

I stand with my president Donald Trump. As a Mexican American I agree with him. We need to keep our enemy closer (Russia) or crap like Ukraine war will happen like it did with Biden. Trust the president he will eventually bring Putin to his knees and then Russia won't be a threat to anyone anymore

I stand with Canada , Ukraine. Never with Russia. Never with Trump. or Vance. Not with the Republican Congress. Great speech , no name calling like last Friday.. MTG boyfriend who is another arrogant person like the President or the Vice President.

From Italy, i stand with Canada , EU and Ukraine. The US has been hijaked by a foreign asset that is doing anything in his power to destroy US economy and relations , any other American president than truly want the best for his nation wouldn't act like this, that's EXACTLY what US adversaries want.\nHopefully the remaining non brainwashed Americans act soon and stop this national security threat before it's too late.

I am from Europe. Lithuania. I will say the opinion that is dominant in my country: Ex President Joe Biden was not the sharpest knife in the drawer because he is of a respectable age, but he was a smart politician, he respected his neighbors and the all of Europe respected him. Trump destroyed everything in one month, he acts like Putin by attacking his neighbors. We are stand with Ukraine and Canada. I hope one day to visit Canada for incredible natural beauty. ( if we Lithuanians don't have to go to war with Ruzzia )

I'm from the UK and I stand with Canada. America should be absolutely ashamed of their president. Trump treats friendly countries like this, then rolls over and becomes nothing but Putin's little bitch. Trump is pathetic and Americans are disgraced by him and his lies.

As an Australian I stand with Canada as a British Commonwealth nation and a respected ally. Trump wants to mark his leadership as the “Greatest US president” by annexing Canada and Mexico. This is USA risking WWIII to enrich Trump and his sycophants with oil, minerals and weapons sale.

We here in the US stand with Canada, Mexico, the UK, and Europe! I am so embarrassed by our current leadership. Je suis tellement gênée par notre president et tous les gens qui le suivent.

As an American I speak for many that we did not want this for our countries and I condemn our President for being just a bully and a fool. Its so nice hear a leader speak with intelligence and compassion. Mr. Trudeau and the people of Canada I stand with you

Wow!! American here. Refreshing to see real leadership. Absolutely disgusted with my piece of crap president and his little pet JD Vance. Never in my 48 years did I think I would see the day our president craps all over our allies. Worse yet, never thought I would have a president that is selling our country and our allies out to Russia. Pray in the American people stand up and say enough is enough

What I would give to have him as our American president..I hope Canadians and the rest of the world know that half of Americans hate what our president is doing and want to stand with you❤?

Thank you PM Trudeau for referring to DJT by his first name and not President Trump. He doesn't deserve the latter title!! I respectfully stand with you and your Canadian citizens!! ???????????

Prime Minister Trudeau, I am sorry President Trump's irresponsible ideas and choices affect so many negatively which includes you and your Canadians, and me and my Americans, as well as so many other. He should be ashamed of himself, but we all know that a narcissist feels only joy in hurting others. I worry every day, not just for the people of the United States of America, but also for all people around the world affected by this horrible man. I stand up and speak up with the hope that it makes a difference. Those I know are doing the same. I have heard so many republicans that voted for Trump, so very sorry now that they did. His irrational behavior is worthy of impeachment. Your speech, Prime Minister Trudeau, was honest and sincere and I appreciate your being so candid. I wish President Trump and Vice President Vance had the character you have. Best Wishes to you and the People of Canada, we have been friends for a long time and I would love to continue this friendship. Remember there are Americans here that appreciate you and your country.

I have always been a proud American citizen. My paternal side of my family has been traced back to the Mayflower and I have ancestors and family that have served in the Revolutionary War, the American Civil War, WWl, WWll, Vietnam, the Gulf, and Afghanistan. This country has made many mistakes and has had much shame throughout its existence for various things but this is the first time and U.S. president has turned his back on our friends and allies in favor of an evil authoritarian leader named Vladimir Putin who strokes his massive ego and gives him elusions of power and respect from Putin when in reality Putin is playing Trump like a fiddle. The New York Times was not right. Donald Trump is not a bright guy. I stand strongly with my friends in Canada ??.

I stand with Ukraine and Canada. I though you know the President was a psychological lair?
