Please Canada don't hate Americans hate Trump. Smart Americans hate him too it was dumb American voters that did this the smart ones voted for Harris.

Can I be Canadian? :). In all seriousness, I wonder if these tariffs will last long. Perhaps Trump will cancel them in the near future and claim, incorrectly of course, that Canada and Mexico (maybe China) made some sort of concessions and that his tariffs worked... What a turnip of a leader, and that's being unkind to turnips...

Fear mongering at its finest.. why throw the word war into this.. they dont want the smoke.. i think we should trade citizens.. leftist to canada far right in america.. lets see which on prevails

All the celebrities, millionaires, billionaires, and smart, talented people in America, please move to Canada or Europe. You are most welcome here.

The San Francisco Bay Area stands with Canada including our allies! Down with Putin and those who support him. \nfrom one love - \nPablo (San Francisco native resident)

Free World...UNITE and RISE against evil! Respect to Canada!

Trump is like Putin, lying lying lying. There was nothing what Canada could do or can do to stop this Trade war. I would even not dismiss that Trump is planing to invade Canada or Mexico. Trump is the same Gangster as his handler Putin in Moscow.

Good for Canada - sucks for me - but good for them!

Canada, join EU before it's too late

Interdiction is a nobel cause, but cannot work. History shows this to be true.\nIf the market is there, it will be supplied until those that desire it are either gone or no longer buy it.\nI support Canada over my own U.S. because thats what i believe is right.\nPull the band aid off fast, close the border, all import/exports shut off.

Canada come join the EU we love you

This is how a leader acts and speaks. I stand with Canada.

Looks like Canada’s stepping up to teach America how to be great again!

?????\nLong live Canada!\nGreetings from Europe \nWe haven't forgotten what you did for us in ww2!

Justin Trudeau and Canada being leader of free world ! ? Love from Finland ??

Maaan....I love Canada for many reasons.

WAIT! Is Canada now a Canada-first country? RACIST! \n\n\nOh, right. It's only racist for the United States to think of their people first, but everyone else is completely free to do so.

Hold strong Canada, this will end badly for little donny.

Standing with Canada on this! May trump's administration days be over soon.\nGreetings from Ukraine.

From Florida we are with you Canada and Ukraine.

If I believed there was a God, I'd invoke his blessing against the courageous, stable government and people of the great nation of Canada. Wake up America. You're being played.

This is all non sense none of the nation's leaders make sense. The tariffs will be paid by the consumers in all the countries. So basically yall raised the prices of all goods in the US, Canada, Mexico & China and the residents will pay or go without products they need & rely on. ?

As an American let me say we don’t want this either! That said, go for it Canada! Don’t spare the rod. Maybe, just maybe if Trump blows up our economy and his supporters lose their jobs and homes and families they will finally wake up and see that fat tub is shit in the White House for what he really is.

Today is the day that US started a war against Canada. That is what US has become.

Well spoken, go Canada and I’m American Brooklyn, New York

Well said Canada!!!! What a mess Trump is making!!! ?

How nice would it be to have a competent leader at the wheel like Trudeau. I stand by Canada as this is just nonsense.

I am so sorry Canada and most US people that are against this TRUMP is a revenge filled senial acting nut who is being handled by Putin

I am from Bengal, India --- now in Canada, and I absolutely love this country as my own-- I stand with Canada-- my country-- cause the values are much more potent -- and because this prime minister has the balls to stand up to a bully-- while others stoop including the #Gujarati fascist, the terrorist organization #RSS mainly from Karnataka and Maharastra ruling India. I am proud to call myself Canadian. Go Team Canada

Canada isn't a real country anyway! ✝️??♥️?

From Texas, and standing with Canada.

I have always had a great deal of respect for Canada’s government and Canadians. A very calm, stable & friendly country. Well done for standing your ground!

Love Canada, love what youre doimg. No dictator allowed in the free world..

You can bet your butt, friends of Trump are either shorting or buying stocks in whatever direction they know the market will go because of the Tariff wars. \nRooting for you Canada and Mexico. Make that money, Trump says we’re gonna have so much more money now.

Trump is right now making trade arrangements with Belarus and Russia for potash, while 25% tarrifs on Canadian potash that come from within a 100 miles of border. Coded annexation talk will be coming from Trump at that address tonight - threats designed for his base to put Canada in a bad light.

i like how in the video canada seems to only be 3 cities : Toronto, ottawa and vancouver..

Oh, Canada. Our home and fif-ty first staaaaate. ?

Ew Canada. If there is anywhere we need a border wall it's up there.

To be fair lending rules in Canada are pretty tight; especially compare to the USA ,their lending practices are a joke in comparison. A huge problem is that for several years we have bringing in 10 people for each housing unit built and a significant portion of those units are 300sqft micro-condos

Ille live in Canada over the hell hole next door.Is that where you learnt your reading skill and math???Do you know how to spellUSA

I have experience in elderly care from my home country but I dont have a certificate. I'm presently working in canada as a cook with a 2 yr work permit.i have a certificate in cooking but I'd love to do psw work and apply under this stream ?

I think if you replace Canada with Australia you will still be correct

The brain drain for college is mostly inaccurate. It’s usually at the stage of job market due to higher salaries after a lower priced college education within Canada.

Canada’s prim minister ?

Housing affordability is an issue in Canada, and many, many Western countries. The paradox is: for homes to be more affordable, homeowners would have to, or be forced to, sell at a lower price than today's price. Why should current homeowners give up the equity in their homes so that someone else can afford it?

As a Canadian who has lived my whole life here, in my opinion there were two major factors that need to be highlighted that started this mess: fiscal policy and focus on fringe politics. First, Canada came out of the 2008 meltdown relatively unscathed due to following a markedly different strategic path than other major countries, namely tight banking regulations as well as 15 years of paying down the national debt. However, several years after 2008, sentiment shifted to adopting the same MMT-led fiscal policies as other nations: lower interest rates and deficit spending. Secondly, at least 10 years ago, there was a major political shift to start emphasizing fringe social issues (climate, race-based, gender, etc.) instead of standard issues such as the economy or military to name two, and it was strongly evident in academia and in the media. The result was little governmental, public or media attention being paid to core economic concerns such as the massive growing government and consumer debt levels, highly inflationary housing market, or decreasing productivity. When COVID hit, the government further doubled the existing federal debt and when they found that unsustainable, opened the doors to massive immigration levels to bring the Debt-per-Capita ratio down which while helping in that one metric, has further inflated the housing market all while forcing wages down. We now have unsustainable public debt levels, unaffordable housing, decreasing wages, decreasing productivity, and a troubling reactionary political swing towards extremist right-wing ideologies. Top that off with the US administration seeing Canada is on an economic precipice and threatening to take the country over, there couldn't be a more perfect storm.

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.

If Canada didn't have such a terrible government with no accountability. The country would be so much better

Things are getting worse too. Canada doesn't develop its infrastructure or resources, and now the housing bubble is rapidly deflating

I desperately want to move out of Canada. I've been born and raised here and I feel helpless. I AM EDUCATED. I DO WORK HARD. I HAVE A GOOD CAREER and yet I have no hope of ever owning a home. How is this acceptable?
