Thanks Trump! Thanks to your tariffs in Mexico as well, we had to lay off a bunch of coworkers at the beer distributor that I work for! Since we aren’t selling as much imported beer, we had to downsize the company for the first time in over 20 years! Thank you Trump! Now I have to wonder if I’ll be next in line due to lay offs right before my baby arrives. Thank you so much Trump and to the uneducated Trump voters.\n\n?

Our PM is right; the end goal is to cripple Canada economically so Trump can take our resources and territory. I am saying Trump intentionally. I know the vast majority of Americans don't want this trade war but if you think Canadians are just gonna lay down and take the abuse, you're high as a fucking kite on your own fumes. We won't got down without a fight and Canadians know how to fight dirty.

Invasion, I would’ve started laying led. You don’t get to let your country go to shit and then think you’re entitled to “flee” here.

If it’s that bad lay down lead

Resist and refuse, the Texas motto. Lay down and capitulate, the New York motto.

The usa has been buckrupt by Bidens immigration Policy, thie is not new is ha sbeen like this for years, is not juat now, why is the reporting laying.

Sadly we can lay this at the feet of the last administration. It has cost 100s of millions of dollars.......

16 thousand migrants entering NYC from Canada? Lmao You might wanna lay off whatever it is yer smokin, buddy

Lay it down man, lay it down. The hate of America counts to a large degree on the effusions of these wackos!

I predict more political losses for Democrats. If they’d just lay off the nonsensical attitude toward lawlessness, the future would look so much brighter for us all.

Imagine one day Trump was just all “execute order 066..” and the border patrol just started laying in ☠️

American is 178th in the world for 'Infant Mortality'. Do you know this appalling fact? This tells me that Women can not access affordable Healthcare during pregnancy. And nothing has been done about it in decades. For a supposedly democratic society, not the political party, this is tantamount to genocide for the poorest American women and babies. And one in eight pregnancies have life threatening complications,. As Abortion has been banned in 38 States, with the fall of 'Wade and Roe' women are dieing, today in the States for a lack of proper healthcare. Trump has 'removing Birth Control' for all American women as the third item on Project 2025. This will build his Standing Army in 18 years, of unaffordable children, as indoctrinated disposable Soldiers or will make one of his Oligark Pals very wealthy, due to the lucrative Adoption business in America.. He is also, with his flurry of illegal Presidential Orders, skipping ratification by Congress, is bringing in a 'Family Vote' by the husband, for every woman who took her husband name at marriage,, 85% of women in America, will effectively be instantly disenfranchised. Keep the little woman home and pregnant, effectively unable to start businesses or get involved in politics. Now they want to 'check on' the Gold in Fort Knox. Can you imagine what will happen to that gold when the man with gold faucets in his home lays eyes on it? Just asking. Now that he has granted his wealthy friends $ 3.5 Trillion in tax breaks, in the first 3 weeks in office. Be aware of the goings on in the Oval Office. He has already stifled the Press. Hitler's methods of destroying a formerly democratic society. He is doing All these methods, and quickly. Look up 'Ask an AI how would you destroy America'... It is chilling.

I don't see the Mexican military stepping in and trying to stop these Venezuela Venezuelans where where's Mexico it's always about America we got to do lay down the law

You will see hospitals closing unsustainable, bad leader ship skills remember migrants bring family in more strain they will start laying off more people we have 30 million or more

Hospital closing here many and lay off migrants don't pay we're paying taking half of year to get an appointment so hospital don't get money and migrants don't have money strained us to breaking point migrants are costing us big money we are closing many hospitals migrants free health we pay for nurses and doctors

Why does illegal aliens always claim they are treated badly. They were handcuffed, had to eat with handcuffs, no bathrooms. No this was a 40 hour flight their are bathroom, they were feed and able to lay down with blankets. I guess they wanted a United flight in 1 st class.

If anyone knew how bad and unsafe life is in Juarez Mexico you wouldn't blame people from trying to run out of there. With the drug violence it's normal to just see dead bodies hanging from the side of a freeway together or laying on the streets. It's normal for young women to be kidnapped and killed. Normal for even the reporters reporting on the cartels to be killed. Many people don't even feel safe leaving their homes. Given half a chance I would try to run in there too but I understand the concern that we just can't let so many people in our country. I see both sides.

Canada and USA are soon gong to face huge job lay offs, downsizing and unemployment starting in March 2025 due to Trumps USA/ Canada Tariffs. \n⛔️So be careful going to these countries.

Imagine being shackled laying flat on your belly on a boat, for weeks to months with no resources… shesshhh y’all have it good!

OH, my goodness we cuffed criminals. This is why CNN is laying off terminal stage 5 TDS.

So, today it is okay for our sons and daughters to go lay their life on the line for country but lgbtq gets to remain in the safe zone? Not right i would say. As of today im going to tell my children to identify as lgbtq so they can avoidcservice.

No matter who is the prime minister . We didn't started it and we are not taking laying down. I think this was good enough push back. If Trumpy comes for more Next thing should be the Removing EV tax credit just on Tesla. Invest in Eastern Canada pipeline and refineries , Bring crude or finished product to Montreal and start sending to Europe. Even with higher cost to refine heavy Alberta crude, we can still bring cheaper gas to Europe given that we sell our crude at 57USD to States and USA sells to Europe at 70. In today's rate Canadian finished product (With heavy refine + high transportation cost) in USA is 73USD per barrel as compared to WTI (with lower refine cost + lower transportation cost) is 82 USD. At 2024 exports levels you saved 14.1 Billion dollars per year + all refinery jobs and reason for it is the heavy discount we gave to you on crude oil. Facts tells me you are the free loader. Yeah we are small and gonna be in bad shape But this does not ends well for you too either.

Retaliating the tarrifs is the only mistake Mexico could have made.\nMexico should have called USA and find out the cause of tarrif increase.I think here the fault lays with Mexico.\nTrafficking human and drug to USA.

Lay people will suffer the most with this absurd decision.

They damn sure aren't working laying on their butts.

Group will be 10 times larger with sheets of plywood in hand next time.\n Lay back enjoy the show.. Michael buffer and dana white will be guest hosts ?

Trump Don’t punish Americans for the illegal stealing all the money , shelter and Resources HE SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE , cutting of ebt / food stamps ….BEFORE GETTING ALL THE ILLEGALS OUT , all these illegals are still LAYING IN SHELTER BEDS AND GETTING FOOD STAMPS, why single American mothers and kids and elderly and veterans and disabled people starve and freeze on side of road , call ur local hotline pretend ur homeless IF UR AMERICAN THEY GONNA TELL U , sorry no shelter available and put u on waiting list AS THEY CONT TO STILL SHELTER ILLEGALS, this is totally messed up !!!!!! GET ALL THESE ILLEGALS OUT AND GIVE THAT AID TO AMERICANS!!!! Why should WE suffer bc LAST ADMINISTRATION GAVE BILLIONS TO FAKE ASSYLUM SEEKERS????

Hey when my grandpa (my mom’s dad) who served our military during Vietnam which he was drafted. He saw men of all walks of life even black guys go over there fight and come home in rough shape or worse. He told me one time he while he was on the army base where he was based at and he saw a black man who at the time whites and blacks were still trying to get there acts together. Was flown in from Nam on a medivac with machine gun holes ripped right through his chest and was in bad shape my grandpa said they immediately rushed him to emergency surgery and my grandpa asked the surgeon who worked on him. “Hey did that color boy make it,” the guy said “it was touch and go there for a while but he pulled through but he was that close to d¥ing.” So if any man woman whatever that serves our military is willing to fight and lay down their l!fe for our country/freedom deserves to wear that uniform and serve with honor and pride.

PRESIDENT TRUMP IS THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF. GO LAY DOWN IN A FETAL POSITION AND CRY HARDER!

Wow. That's frightening to see masses trying to force their way in to receive free government support. Many are probably pregnant, hoping to lay their offspring on US soil for sudden citizenship. Start enforcing our laws against employing, aiding, and abetting illegal invaders; go after the employers and politicians.

Wow, CNN is now trying to convince the idiots that we rely on Colombia to eat. No wonder they are sinking fast and laying thousands off.

Typical Trump, claiming much more than done facts. He is a total bragacciolo and laying to no end

This is the right time for world to come together and leave America ?? alone this Trump thought that without America the world can not serve he is laying Colombia is right America is big enough give them some part you're land to make the migratin shame on you America the country which was builded by the migrat

Many companies are laying off workers for economic reasons while prioritizing international students and temporary workers over Canadians because they can pay them lower wages. Now, in this time, qualifications, experience, and performance stopped mattering. \nHow does the government expect Canadians to pay their bills, household expenses, and other costs in such a chaotic job market? How can Canadians compete with temporary students living in overcrowded rented houses, where multiple bunk beds are crammed into each room, and landlords charge $500 to $700 per bed? \nWhat measures will the government take to address this growing crisis?

If this was north Korea there would be a lot of Venezuelan bodies laying on the border

In the us they are lying about the immigrants are doing jobs Americans don’t want. The lies they tell!!! The jobs want to hire immigrants to pay them less money. Lots of jobs are lowering the starting pay and hiring immigrants. Some jobs aren’t hiring Americans. A lot of jobs are laying people off and I know it’s to hire immigrants

I am surprised that someone like Palki is asking this question. The West won't answer that? It's because of our behaviour, our fake documents and the scams that we pull. Why does the Indian government not address the fact that India has been running the world's biggest immigration scam? Punjab, Gujarat (emphasis on the rat), Haryana, Delhi, etc - the biggest scam running ever. 95% of them do not know how to behave in public and will gather enmass, no doubt a posse of fellow fraudulent immigrants with their fake scores and IELTS documents all paid for and forged by their fraud agencies, and then they make a mess in the foreign country that they go to. Start a F*cking chat counter and lay those stupid cots all over the parking area and then bring their entire family, who can't speak English or the language of that land and then roam around. Possibly even peeing and shitting on the street! Like they do back in India. They basic courtesy that the West take for granted, these country baboons cannot try to emulate, but they will act out the dumb dancing & acting tough of their fool actors in their favourite nonsensical Bollywood movie. The music, especially Punjabi music (those annoying repetitive tinga tinga tinga torture that they pass for music), their dumb chole batture and all sort of BS. These morons possibly want Hindi & Punjabi to be adopted as the new national languages of the West. Being Indian myself I would reject everyone. Or do interviews that check for so many things and then only accept them. We are now universally hated! Congratulations!!

To add icing to the cake Amazon is closing a warehouse in Quebec thereby laying off people. This is the year people start losing their job.

As an American I had great love for Indians while growing up together in school. After we graduated I even travelled twice to India ( Pune, Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai) for vacations.\nHowever, my experience in India was unbelievable. \nAs a young American at that time I never believed Indians could have such horrible characters even when my parents and close friends had told me about it earlier.\nAfter my experience in India I decided to pay closer attention to any Indian I came across in the US, and surprisingly i discovered Indians are not only very corny by nature but are also very self centered, greedy and selfish kinds of humans. Although not all Indians, but 8 out of 10% naturally have this character which is disgusting indeed.\nFor a long time most people never noticed that about Indians because they pretend to be quiet and mostly gentle. However behind an Indian soft and gentle appearance lays very corny, crooked, self centered, and double standard fellows.\nAnyone who doubts my observations should also make the research by themselves.\nYes, they are good bad and ugly people in every race and country, but Indians are clearly out of the context as their double standard and corny life styles of extreme pretence are undiscovered danger to any society.

I went through this twice during COVID. Two tenants stopped paying one after the other and lost over 50k. Sadly, the only option is to take her to small claims court but in order to do that you need an eviction order and sheriff documents. Even if he does get to that point, they can o lay garnish her wages and at that point, she can avoid paying and jump from place to place changing addresses info and job details. Professional renters know the system and they work it to screw the landlords. One tenant I had actually believed that if they rent the house they “own the home”. Even if you call the police they won’t do anything. If the government just allowed the police to arrest and charge these people I think it would help but they don’t. It’s horrible. I’m actually thinking of selling my home because of the financial burden it’s been post COVID. I have good tenants now but only after using most of the equity to pay off the damage and missed rent from the last 3 tenants….

They’re hiding and laying low. Not a surprise. The US has so many police the ones hiding willl get picked up someday. If they’re dangerous our FBI can find anybody.

That is what I would expect the security detail watching over the president of China to do. \n\nUnlike our US Secret Service, watching an armed person laying on a rooftop, pointing his rifle at President Trump, and firing off multiple shots before Secret Service reacts by shooting back. \n\nWe live in trouble times, where what it is and what it can be made to look like are very different, and the latter can be much more persuasive. Especially when the propaganda machine, aka mainstream American media CNN, FOX, NBC, CBS,...

The dynamics is complicated. High energy costs causing increase in costs for businesses and households. Household pushing for more salaries to meet their standard of living. Companies pushes for cost control measures like laying off, moving production abroad, or hiring low salaried people than paid locally (and often rely on hiring foreign workers). Domestic political dissatisfaction, terror incidents and growing AfD sentiment is affecting percieved motivation of foreigners which is affecting exodus of skilled manpower to other countries or even to their home country e.g. India.

ok, Trump is a pushing to secure the border, fine . it has to happen on both sides of the border. its do able. lay off the threats.

Vassy’s getting fat. Maybe lay off on the souvlaki honey.

i am canadian recently layed off from job.my manager said he received lots of application every day.

JVL of the Bulwark pointed out that tariffs are the fastest way for a dictator to take over a nation's entire business community. Trump gets every CEO on bended knee, starting with Bezos. And in addition, tariffs are a huge personal revenue source for Trump, and don't imagine that he won't find a way to lay hold of that stream. Michael Cohen has pointed out how MBS modeled for Trump how to turn a national wealth fund into a personal income account, and tariffs check all the boxes for massive grift.\nFinally, tariffs rationalize the catastrophic tax cuts Trump is financing for himself and his friends, so they look good on paper. They ruin nationa and trade relationships, but hey. It's a win win win for Donald Trump, who won the election.

Tariffs are important it saves jobs in America by not allowing countries to dump extra cheap products in the country to run business in America out of business like what just happened in Chicago with a tire plant cheap tires coming from China forced a sumitomo tire plant in Chicago to close and lay off American workers. Stop listening to these people on the media who gets their talking points from the same Globalist that is destroying America ?

gee, mexico has an intelligent, rational leader. obviously most americans still think mexicans are all laying around in sombreros doing nothing. the reality is mexico has become quite an economic power house. the USA has become a joke.
