Compare this speech, content and delivery, to that of and by the US president and you'll see why the world thinks the white house has a clown in the hot seat

Appreciate Trudeau's matured, courageous,sober, responsible speech. Trump and his pals in the white house now seem like the most immatured bunch of people compared to Trudeau, Zelensky, Macron etc. These young people are a great example for the old Donald.

Superb grown up speech. Compare this to the convicted felon in the WH and his ass licker Vance.

Such a nice speech, even more when compared to the way Trump-The-Disgrace speaks...

Now compare this speech to that sickening display of ego in the Oval Office w President Zelensky. \nElbows Up??

Nice to hear coherent sentences, a well-balanced speech with an intro, substance, and conclusion. Such a joy compared to the whiny incoherency of the spiteful old man.

I am Korean. Your clear and determined speech is exact, justified compared to Donald.\nI support Canada

Wow the United States got what they got because they voted stupidity, hatred, bigotry, racism,no experience, felonies, just to name a few?compared to these two men from Canada and Ukraine ?? who can read, speech different languages, have compassion, have experience, intelligence with integrity… WOW JUST BECAUSE AMERICANS DIDN’T WANT A AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN…who has everything thing in her fingernail that lil Donnie will never have? United States got a “good white boy”who happens to sleep with Satan???

Donald is not a smart man of course. But, in terms of approaching a fascist and a criminal, since Canada will be hurt, Trudeau has to be the decent guy he is. Brilliant speech, the best I have heard ever. The guy is poised and knows how to speak. He is smart and compared to him, Trump is incredibly stupid. Bravo. Let me be clear, Trump is a traitor, a bully, a conman, totally lacking in compassion...he is driven by his perverse megalomania and narcissism. He is, in reality a very mentally sick man. And the Republicans are his pathetic cowardly accomplices. Given the continued support, Trump will run American into the gourd, even risk a war to get the attention he needs so badly.

First time I listen to Trudeau’s speech, it’s really good. A decent man comparing to Donald

Your coverage is useless compared to the speech and questions. Useless fluff

Yes he's very polite in his speech although he's angry comparing to Trump who speaks like a gangster to threaten everyone he doesn't like.

say whatever you want about Trudeau, but compare his speech with Trump's. Trudeau talks professionally like an actual leader should do. Trump whines and makes everything about himself like an old idiot rude drunk grandpa.\nand if Trudeau is bad, then what the F is Trump?!

Wow, what an intelligent speech from Mr. Trudeau! (compared to the orange, stupid, crazy old man's liars).\nWe stand with Canada and Ukraine. Sorry, American people! We boycott all kinds of American products: NO Tesla, NO vacation in the USA, NO Apple, NO Netflix, NO Lewis, Nike, McDonald, Coke...

What an intelligent and articulate speech compare to Trumps endless mumbling and articulation of a demented grandpa with strange worldview. I am so sorry for Americans. I think this is the worse American president in history and he will definitely make history as in as the most incompetent American leader in its history. I can’t help but wonder who the hell was voting for this idiot?

American here and I say well done Trudeau. I see courage, intelligence and class in this speech compared to the cowardice, brown nosing and treachery I see on our side.

Compare this speech to Trump's briefings. You can tell who is a true nation leader.

All the leaders of the great old nations now speaking humble and intelligently to the world without even a sign of aggressivness. Please if you have any doubt about Trump being utterly unworthy just compare these speeches for 5 minutes. Trump is not a leader. He is not a politician. Get rid of him. Now. Or suffer the consequences.

LOL compare this to a Trump Speech .... one comes across as a Statesman , the other a bad Vegas lounge act...

An intelligent coherent clear 'truth' based speech - now compare that to Trump. Go Canada {from me in the UK]! I just hope we stand up to the US with the same strength. Not sure our PM has the same backbone unfortunately.

Very clear, concise and measured speech from President Trudeau. Compare that with the rabid rantings from Trump.

Amazing speech. Can’t even be compared to bully Trump.

Now this is true leader speaking. Clearly, coherently, intelligently. To the point. Compare Mr. Trudeau's speech with inane ramblings of painted Russian w**** Americans elected as their crook-in-chief.

As a German - apart from the content which is no less than justified - just technically comparing Trudeau´s speech with Donald Trump´s verbal outcome - what an incredible difference in niveau & tone. Isn't it almost tragic how little skill it took to run the U.S and even worse, how low the common-sense-threshold must be for a half of the American people to make this happen a second time. Embarrassing.

This speech was delivered not by a politician, but by a statesman! Compare this speech to anyone the orange orangutan made! It's night and day, people! I stand by Canada 100%. Greetings from Hungary!

Comparing pm Trudeau and trumps speech today. \nOne was an intelligent adult working to better his country!\nThe other is an elderly toddler suffering from a narcissistic personality disorder, who only cares about himself.

The problem with here is also with Khalistan issue (of course not all Punjabis there want Khalistan and are absolutely chill people and people here in India, Punjabis, also don't want Khalistan, I have some close friends who are Sikh and are most Dildaar, Big-hearted, people I know). A lot of extremist groups which want, Khalistan ARE supported and protected by the Canadian government especially by Justin Trudeau and these people are committing nothing but violence and terrorism in the name of free speech. Indian government has issued many extradition requests, but the Trudeau government has done nothing about it and has protected these extremists. Over the years Indian government has warned Canadian government about this issue constantly and after years of housing these Canadian terrorists (because Canada calls them their citizens and protects them, what else can be the correct term for them and nothing like Khalistan exists) they've started to cause problems for the people already living there (like the terrorists Pakistan was housing are causing problems to them). They know they are not gonna get a Khalistan in India so where else are they gonna build it? Voila! Canada! This is the reason behind them not assimilating with the existing culture.Trudeau has even gone to lengths of calling Amit Shah (Home minister of India) and PM Modi (if you don't know what the heck are you doing here go study geopolitics a bit) unalivers of Hardeepsingh Nijjar WITHOUT any evidence (they just keep saying they have it but have shown nothing till now) and because of which Canada has worsened its relations with the Indian Government. They are even comparing India with the likes of North Korea in terms of threat. Indian Government in reply is giving Canada the same treatment it gives to Pakistan (a bit better of course, but the diplomacy has gone to sh it. And the reason why Trudeau is doing all this, yeah VOTES for sh itty domestic politics he's sacrificing long term GOOD relations with the Indian Government. Now, you may think that worsening relations with India is a good thing for Canada, yeah no, its not good because India has trade relations with Canada which may worsen due to this (yeah, great going for an economy which is already in shambles) and UK or US are not gonna do anything to India over Canada because India geopolitically has more significance than Canada (I'm not bragging, please don't misunderstand). This rant has gone to a very different tangent but yeah a lot of problems Canada is having is mainly due to their government. Any of Canadian friends (I have not reason to hate you) and Punjabi brothers/sisters (Yeah, unless you are some sh itty extremist you are a brother/sister to me) please don't take this offensively. Peace.

Canada isn’t a free country compared to the United States where we still have freedom of all speech and the right to bear arms. If the United States goes any further left I will leave. Might be by the end of the year.

Politics are like a pendulum. In my youth the right was largely the unreasonable voice; strong conservative policies derived in part by religious values that didn’t mesh with more progressive mainstream views. There was also a small but perceivable undertone of anti-imigration and racist sentiment in Canada's rural areas. Now the pendulum has swung far to the left. Now the extremists are on the left, killing free speech, mandating bodily harm, and cramming a nonsensical woke ideology down our throats. The voice of reason is now right of center. If I had to compare the two I would say that the current left ideology has been far more damaging. I hope that the next election will be the start of a new Canadian renaissance and that the pendulum doesn't swing too far to the right. No single politician has done more to destroy Canadian pride, economics, and world standing than Justin Trudeau.

The US will always be better than Canada. More opportunities and freedom of speech and NO french! Spanish so much better and useful. Canada will never compare. High taxes and lots of cold and ice! Yuk!!

As an American, can honestly say America has the least freedom of speech compared to so called civilized nations. Not only are there more brainwashed, ignorant people here than many other places, the delusion about free press that is the major propaganda tool is really high up there.

LEGAL PROPOSITION - DETRIMENTAL CONTENT OF THE QUR'AN\n\nWe demand a full legal inquiry into the validity of allowing the Quran to be printed and imported into Canada. Considering it's anti-democratic ethos and contradictory laws in regards to Canada. The inquiry should take into account the following Islamic permission and compare to Canadian law to deem if the Qur'an and Islam should be permitted to exist in Canada:\nsex-slavery, bigamy, domestic violence, honor killings, killing of apostates, pedophilia. and on the basis of lack of freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, equal rights. The legal inquiry should thoroughly probe the nature of Islam using the written verses of the Quranic hadiths and Islamic commentaries written by clerics and Islam scholars. We demand that if the inquiry concludes that the Islamic agenda violates and threatens our citizen's rights to live freely and safely, then we should seek to ban the Qur'an and Islam permanently from Canada.
