To all moronic Americans look and learn - Trudeau is a true statesman. You have Trump and love Putin. We loathe all of you for allowing this idiot to get into power.

Contrast this speech with what trump responds with. Insults the PM of Canada. By calling him governer Trudeau. Completely insulting and childish but what do you expect?. I just wish the rest of the worlds statesman started insulting trump the same way. A man child coward with the intelligence of a amoebe

Trudeau has had his up and downs in Canadian politics over the years, with the ever present divide between Conservatives and Liberals here in Canada, but one thing is for sure, he's a true statesman, who speaks with wisdom from the heart, and for that is respected around the world. Trump would be smart to take notes from Trudeau, a man with considerably more skill, etiquette and experience in the field of political leadership, both hear at home, and on the world stage.

That’s a real statesman and a real man! Trump and Vance are limp noodled wimps and are destroying our country! Dumb asses that voted for tRump/Vance or didn’t vote at all are dumber than a pile of ?

Pleased to see a TRUE statesman speak as opposed to the US gangster double act of Trump & Vance . America is loosing all its creditability worldwide .

Canadians should be proud of this articulate, principled and intelligent statesman. I hope our NZ politicians support and standby Canada and be more direct and clear in their criticism of Trump and his idiots.

Trump that’s what a statesman sounds like, not an ignorant ,childish bully! You’re a disgrace!

The difference in tone contrasted against Cheeto Trump is respectful and measured. Like a true statesman

Compare Trump and Mr Trudeau purely on their demeanour and the words that they speak. Mr Trudeau has demonstrated here that he is a skilled statesman, he can speak coherently and powerfully. He's not spouting ridiculous insults in the face of Trump's tariffs. He may have fallen out of favour in Canada, but as a British citizen looking in, he stands head and shoulders above Trump and Vance. Thank you for your service Mr Trudeau.

This is a true leader and statesman. Trump is dickhead

Look at him, Donald Trump: \nTHIS man has got style, manners and intellect. This is exactly what a great statesman look like!\nGermany stands with Canada! ????♥️??

Level-headed, measured, amicable, educated, a real leader and statesman. Talking to an orange baffoon. I only disgree with Trudeau in one thing. Trump does dumb things cause he is actually dumb. And seeing that he is insulting people and allies left and right I personally would love for other leaders inventing fitting names for him paying him back in kind. Someone came up with Mango Mussolini, I had until now favored Orange Utan, but the Mango version is appealing. And lets face it, Trump's cabinet of circus freaks also literally begs to be ridiculed.

I know PM Justin Trudeau has had his critics but he is far more of a statesman than Trump or Vance could ever wish to be! Their actions are tantamount to treason and the great American citizens are being thrown under the bus.

His delivery was so clear and elegant in both English and French; Trump and Vance should learn. This is how a gentleman statesman behaves, especially if he's the representative of a country

This is how a Statesman addresses his nation and the world.\nThe eloquent and thought gone into this speech.\nCanada, you are deep in our thoughts here in the UK.\nYou are our nearest cousins and will always be.\nThe world is a dangerous place at the moment, thanks to Donald Trump and his vice-president.\nBut they have no idea or understanding of 20th century world history.\nMr Trump, take a look at Germany 1930s...

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

Trudeau is a statesman and Trump is a bully. That´s it.

That's how a statesman speaks—Trump, on the other hand, talks like a sulky, spoiled child who doesn't get his ice cream.

Well that’s a statesman there. Hopefully Trump will listens but I doubt it sadly.

A true statesman! How he was able to say that Trump is a smart man without breaking into hysterical laughter is pure masterclass!!! Give the man an Oscar!!!

Listen to this articulate statesman, listening to Trump is like listening to someone in the movie Idiocracy, and Trump Doesn’t even know how to read, he was handed that letter from King Charles and he had to hand it back because he Was unable to read it

Trump made Trudeau look like a statesman. Great achievement
