As a Canadian, I'm actually proud of Prime Minister Trudeau. Canadians stand up to bullies, GOP need to be afraid (politically) of their constituents not Trump!

Imagine a Country's leader speaking articulately and coherently with actual facts and reason - and in TWO languages.

Canadian here - It's so nice to have a leader that can actually speak in full sentences and makes sentence. We can be proud!

Very good summary. I will add that our I know you wanted to be concise and you nailed it. For anyone who is curious about how our politics make everything worse for us federally, let me explain it in a short time.\n\nTrudeau as of the day of this video, March 3, 2025, is STILL the PM. He said he WOULD resign once a new leader was picked through a democratic process. Right now, he's basically just doing photo ops in Ukraine, UK and anywhere else on our dime because Parliament is prorogued and the party in power, Liberal, is having a leadership race. So, while he may resign within the week once that leadership race is done, he's still technically in charge.\n\nWhat makes that race and the PM's prorogation so bad is that we're in the middle of a crisis - several actually - caused in part directly by Trudeau and his Liberals (and the NDP supporting them). The latest would be Trump's tariffs starting today, March 4, 2025. Trudeau always disappears during a crisis, leaving us to fend for ourselves - (1) COVID, he was at the cottage using every excuse not to be accountable for anything or using unconstitutional powers to crush a protest he didn't know how to handle, (2) Chinese spies, he's ignoring our intelligence service, (3) federal worker strike, he's in NYC at some gala.... I could go on but there's a reason we're hurting so bad.\n\nWe have zero federal leadership, and a federal government that makes things worse for us with things like: over-regulation, subsidizing media to keep us misinformed, nerfing select natural resource sectors but favoring others (oil and gas suffer, while coal is fine... probably because we sell it to China, but I digress), letting criminal out of jail, uncontrolled immigration, passing policies like the FHSA that drive home prices higher and higher, and of course, more and more taxes. I could go on about the billions in taxpayers' money the government blows - it's like a black hole - or the fact that MPs keep getting raises - April 1 is their fifth since COVID - and most federal and government employees are all getting raises at a time when the rest of us are learning to get by with less and less because we're taxed so much and housing, groceries, etc. are so unaffordable.\n\nI have applied for US citizenship. I want to stick around to fix Canada, but I think it's too far gone. We have too many socialists/communists in power and they're not getting voted out any time soon. It's been fun Canada, it's been fun.

One thing I'm always curious about is why do we use GDP Per Capita to see how well a nation is doing? It doesn't directly measure the standard of life and economic power that the residents of a nation have. Why not use Purchasing Power as this shows exactly how far someones dollar can actually go

The people did actually seem to be walking 30% slower, lol

I know it's just a trending topic, but the more you refer to Canada as a US state, the more likely it is to actually come to fruition. Please stop.

FEEDBACK: I've operated various businesses in Canada and all I can say is, 'never again'. The BUREAUCRACY grows in strength every year, issuing more & more regulations, stifling everything. For every new rule a bureaucrat introduces, an old rule should be retired.\n\nHOUSING: It's the Liberal Government policy to pander to immigrant voters that has put us down the wrong path. I'm amazed that so few people in, say, Vancouver who complain about the astronomical cost of rent and mortgages realize that their problem is directly caused by our WEAK policy of permitting new immigrants to move to Vancouver & Toronto , instead of the 1,000 other towns where they're desperately needed. How stupid are we, to not even understand the policy issue? \n\nMeanwhile, I actually lost my apartment block in Winnipeg because the market value dropped below the mortgage balance and the bureaucracy was killing me with their conflicting rulings. So, why did my block drop in market value? Because people were leaving Winnipeg, and Manitoba. EVERYONE went to Vancouver or Toronto. Thanks for nothing, stupid politicians.. the opposition isn't doing their job when Canadians don't know anything about this.

As a Canadian I would do anything to become the 51st state\n\nThe country has failed the younger generation and is by far the worst country in G7, by a LONG shot\n\n(Since i want to leave so bad: migrating to the US LEGALLY is actually kind of difficult)

Canadian here. The same Liberals that oversaw this mess for the past 9 years have now surged in the polls. They may actually have a chance at re-election...this country is full of idiots.

As someone living in Canada... I actually don't feel much of the things mentioned in the video. Sure, wages are not growing as fast as it can, but as someone who managed to purchase a home *before* the bubble started to expand, I'm living steady right now.\n\nWhat is REALLY causing a large part of the social and economic issues is actually the fact that provinces are NOT expanding new towns and cities in the millions of kilometers that needs to grow. Everyone is moving into cities, including refugees and new immigrants, which is driving up local prices and demand for everything. A few years ago, there were literally news of townships outside of the major cities offering houses and land for $50 per acre if people move to those towns and live there. \n\nCanada's biggest (heh) advantage is how much land it has. It's biggest weakness is how little comparative population it has. The worst problem is the concentration of population in like 6 keys cities throughout the entire country. If more people who complain about housing or social issues were willing to move outside of the major cities, they wouldn't have those problems.

There is no way you can cover the economic situation of Canada in 14 minutes. \n\nThe housing crisis is actually caused by a 1982 change in a public policy about financing housing and specifically to move away from public housing to have a strictly financing the mortgages \n\nThis means that when we had the 2008 housing collapse banks for completely bailed out with no public input compared to the United States

Finally someone not just screaming doom and gloom, but actually explaining ins and outs, and showcasing that there is a solution. Especially, I really like the idea that the brain drain and worker drain could be replaced with more smart automation to support the aging population. Interesting perspective I have never thought of.

When was the last time an advanced economy actually started to trend backward while everyone else was pulling ahead? Brazil? Venezuela? Performative, shallow, and stunningly unqualified is probably the best way to describe our administration for the last 10 years. Looking forward to a new chapter but with the Damocles' sword of tariffs and annexation hanging over our heads, well, maybe soon we'll be wishing things were only as f**ked as they were in 2024...

Why can't Marc speak properly?\n\nCan he not form one cohesive sentence without having to pause?\n\nImagine how refreshing it'll be to have competent individuals who actually know what they're doing/talking about running the show.

Cash, you nailed it when you said that these NY leaders actually hit our country. And many of them will profit from those “nonprofits.”

So…the only thing that we don’t know here is whether or not the guy is actually doing his job. Because guess what? SO many MEN (ubers,lyft, door dash etc etc etc) don’t CARE to READ anything that you write about and they don’t care to do their jobs…I order out so many times and over the years have noticed almost NO men actually do their jobs and have no responsibility…so I don’t know the exact context here.

I hope Trump blocks all government funding to these sanctuary cities. Stop the flow of tax dollars going to illegals and help actual Americans that fell on hard times and need a help up, not a hand out!

Those are actual native Americans. Europeans need to get the fck out of here. It’s not their lands. It belongs to the people you are falsely arresting. They have American bloodline.

Canada needs actual men to turn it into the 51st State.

Got bit by a spider and ended up septic. In hospital for two weeks five blood transfusions. Two knee replacements. Hernia surgery. One child and we stayed in hospital three nights because he had a few issues. Went to Detroit for a surgery that wasn’t approved in Canada but Canada paid me back every penny including hotel costs. Out of all of the above I paid zero!!!! I was actually grouchy for only one min cuz I had to pay 20 bucks for the crutches. lol love my country and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. Thank you Canada!!!!!

Some of us actual Americans really really dont want this!

So stunned by all these comments, do people not actually no history

It is idiotic to keep using arguments with these Democrats about the border. Talking won't help. Their goal is the destruction of this country. Its society they already destroyed, now they are in the physical stage: destroying this country, not only NYC, physically. Keep voting for them - Manhattan as the actual Americans knew it has been gone for years. You did it and it is you who keep doing it. After all you keep electing them.

This is actually funny. So many migrants are still entering from the US into Canada. Make it make sense.

I always tried to give the left the benefit of the doubt and assume they weren't ACTUALLY trying to destroy America... but seeing how much they still continue to protect this stuff has confirmed that I was being naive.

this comment section makes me so sad it’s such an example of a lack of empathy with have in america do you think all these people would be doing this running in a fucking mob with their children if they weren’t absolutely desperate. don’t you think they’re probably well aware that they won’t be able to actually beat armed militia and were doing this in protest??? can’t we critically think what drives people to do the things they do and then structural address them!!! hate will never create prosperity for all!!!

Trump, go after all the foreign exchange students. They take scholarships away from americans. Go after the professionals like doctors. I'm tired of so many doctors with accents from who knows where. They take jobs away from Americans. And can you deport those dual citizens? You know the ones who want to take the holy land away from actual semites of the middles east? The rent here in Brooklyn is ridiculous.

Trump and his bad ass cabinet is the best this country has ever seen... actually he should get to run again let's admit it .. he's George Washington 2 . 0..

Thank you DW for reaching out to a community and covering the actual emotion and feeling in the area.

The citizens of the United States must be on board with this if you see something say something we’re at a time when the phone call to ice ACTUALLY GOES SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN ANSWERING MACHINE THAT’S NEVER ANSWERED❤️‍?❤️‍?❤️‍?❤️‍?????

I used to love to go to NYC for Christmas. However, the last time i went Manhattan was not like it used to be. There are loads of ppl smoking weed, the train, which i used to like to ride, has lots of homeless and drunk ppl and was dirty. This reminded me when i used to go to the city as a boy in the 80s and 90s but was changed due to Gulliani and others. Last Christmas I continued my tradition to go to NY but i stayed in Buffalo. It is actually nice there and i saw loads of snow.

How surprising. I wonder what their masters from UK and USA will have to say about this? Actually, can they say this directly to Israili officials to their faces in front of the international media and in front of international assembly like the UN meetings? Can anyone actually make an ultimatom to Israil other than Türkiye? Because when Türkiye says something Israil stops and thinks about their actions 5 times sometimes testing out Türkiye’s patience. When Türkiye comes close, Israil asks Azerbaijan or others to talk to Turkish officials. So does anyone else in the region have the balls and courage and dignity and honour to do the same as Türkiye towards Israil?

Imagine 16k illegals trying to flee to canada to gain a 80k pay cheques each. \nTrump is actually really helping canada by blocking them then deporting them.

click bait title... this is very misleading, He didn't block 16000 from entering. There was reported 16000 last year and the video just said trump is making it harder, nothing actually happened though!

So happy to actually witness the blocking of Illegal Invaders. We don't want any of those people in our country!❤

@14:06 Actually, the Dems want a population that they can control much easier.

Presenting as the marauders they actually are.

Actually If, busing companies are trafficking Illegal Immigrants they are guilty of aiding and, abitting by, providing confront and, aid and busses should be confiscated for participating In Illegal activities...

This was last year I believe. When you see the images of people getting deported now in 2025 please remember how some of them actually came in.

??? I can’t believe people actually believe this ?

100.000 have entered the uk over last 10yrs given free accommodation and health benefits while the indigenous pensioners who paid tax while working are now freezing thanks to this government giving aid to god knows how many countries. Crime rate tripled,but they still allow all into the country without any vetting.they actually ditch passports into the English Channel . We need Trump

Its actually incredibly easy for someone to get a student, or work visa from Africa, and come to Canada.

I can’t believe this is still happening in February 2025. What is the actual date this video was made???

Oh look the government is actually doing their job

Politicians trying to fight against pooicies that actually help improve legal American citizens safety, to protect criminals, are more than likely getting a kickback or cut from said programs that are currently being abused. I bet these hotels are probably marking up the rates for their rooms to snag a bigger check from our tax dollars.\n\nIt's sad and disgusting

I thought this was factual reporting not propaganda fear mongering. You're making all immigrants out to be bad when only a small percentage are garngs and criminals, much like the citizens of the USA too. This channel seriously distorts the truth and panders to right wing extremism. \nThe Trump regime has brainwashed 77 million Americans. Maybe they will wake up when they see that his administration is DOGEing everything needed for citizens in order to give massive tax cuts to billionaires. Do you all not see this? You're being screwed of by a fascist megalomaniac and his cronies. Musk is cutting aid to hungry children and trying to manipulate to deregulate government and get more funding for himself to make himself even more rich. The richest man in the world does zero philanthropy! The US gov't has given him millions in subsidies.\nAnd blinded manipukated right wingers in the US call the people who actually see what is going on 'sheeple' and tell them to 'wake up'. How ironic.\nIf you're a working class citizen, this regime is fucking you over. How's the price of eggs now?

Wait wait wait, what's stopping homeless people from pretending to be illegals to get a leg up? Actual Americans could push the illegals out, if they were organized.

I'm an Australian traveller who went on a solo trip around the US in 2023. I couldn't afford a hotel room in New York so I opted for a Hostel. The hostel I stayed at had many Latinos and upon speaking to them, they were living there for free in exchange for cleaning, reception work, etc. It shocked me that businesses were happy about this exchange of paying wages to actual Americans

President Trump truly is a breath of fresh air. Finally a President that actually cares about The American People.
