If someone paid $10k for a birth, they probably had complications during the birth or the baby needed medical care, was premature etc. Not that they have crappy insurance. In Canada it costs NOTHING to give birth, or have complications, or have your baby in neonatal intensive care for months. $3000 to give birth is crazy. Who can afford that, along with time off and a new baby?

Canada should double the price of everything , this will keep them away .

I’ve travelled around both countries. Canada looks clean, and nearly everywhere is tidy & well kept. \nI cannot make these claims about America. \nP.S. America is after an Explorer. Canada is indigenous word! Meaning ‘We The People’.

America subsidies Canada 200 billion a year. Is that fair ….no Canada will do nothing to America

Support canadians in canada

They Omega as student or on visit visas overstay & work which is outrageous & illegal. It is definitely a crime. Wake up Canada & do as our great American President Trump has dome. All other Countries should follow suit. I'm not being biased as I'm Indian origin too but it's not right to break the Country's law. That is a criminal act.

Canada is a rugged and stupid country. What kind of Indians are they who go to Canada?

Sister please help me I want to move to Canada

I'm currently planning my immigration to Canada, and although it might be harder to do so, it's really nice to see a government actually address an issue

Best part of listening to candidcast podcast is honesty n reality. Harmeet Ji ko dekhte dekhte canada aa gaye. Still remember very first vlog when they land in canada n they went for grocery shopping.

Indians and Chineses will conquer the US and Canada in the next 30 years

How about for Filipinos working as a caregiver for atleast 5 years in Canada?

Don't come to Canada to study, if you can't afford it here!

now Canada needs to deport fraud indian students

The sad thing is in every country wether its Canada Usa UK/ ireland theres always that go back to ur own Country line just IGNORANCE

I also hear from blacks that they love Canada as black people are treated better there than here in America. Whites are a minority in Canada. There are more Chinese than anyone else there.

Canada please solve the immigration issue don’t turn into the USA and adopt our style of politics

More more more need to leave ! The Indians that have migrated to Canada the last 9 years are the worst of worst !

You’re wrong. We’re not talking in “too many immigrants” 90% for 9 years are migrants from India ??. India India India ?? that’s who all us other Canadians are forced to live with. At least 3 million of the 7 million Indians are frauds and scammers. This is what RUINED Canada. Millions of Indians, uneducated, unskilled, dirty backwards people. Now we have 3 Indian festivals in Toronto, 2 Hindu parades on Yonge street, Diwali etc. This isn’t Canada this is Hindu Sikh India ??

You guys are nuts!!!! I wish I could move to Canada

You would be one American I would welcome you in Canada. Watch you all the time. Love how you honestly cover Canada ??

Maybe Canada would be better off actually becoming the 51st state of the United States. ?

The people invading our country are not wanted in their own country. Trump uses tariffs to get countries like Mexico and Canada to step up and handle things on their end. Both Mexico and Canada have capitulated to this strategy. The NWO is desperate.

The person recording himself behaved disrespectfully towards an Indian delivery executive. This individual's actions reflect poorly on them. The Indian diaspora is diverse, and individual behaviour is shaped by upbringing and education. Such racist antics gives a negative impression of Canada.

Update 3/2/25 Canada and Mexico caved to Trump's demands and are giving him what he wants, the stop the flow of illegal aliens and drugs into the US on the Mexico/US/Canada borders. Canada and Mexico now joins Columbia, Venezuela, and Panama for countries bending the knee to Trump's demands. This video did not age well with Trudeau imposing tariffs on American products into Canada.

Putting 25% on Canadian items means American goods are 25% less than Canadian so who will buy from Canada? American goods will be cheaper and will boost the economy. Ordinary American will be better off.

Trudeau and Canada’s threats have no teeth. It’s like a child saying it will hold its breath until it gets its way.

Le canada doit fermer la voie maritime du St Laurent

There is something Canada and Mexico don't get, Trump put tariffs because of the illegal trade that comes across the borders, illegal immigrants, gangs and drugs and because he thinks, right or wrong, that Mexico and Canada don't do enough to stop it. Now Mexico and Canada put tariffs on the US, because the US puts tariffs on them, they don't even try to defend their position or debunk what trump is saying about the illegal goods coming in. Trump must be right then, no?

As an American this is a Sh_t show for everyone. Everyone will suffer especially countries that have a week value to the U.S dollar. What is not said is Canada and Mexico laundering goods and services for China to the U.S which is the real culprit.

Good, both Canada and Mexico have been doing whatever they want when it comes to America. Everything America needs can be produced within America. This also could help both Canada and Mexico to create their own economy.

Biggest loser from this trade war is Microsoft's video gaming division.\n\nWhile the Playstation 5 and Nintendo Switch are made in China and Japan, the Microsoft X-Box Series S/X are American made.\n\nAs a result, the PS5 and Nintendo Switch will not face a 25% tariff from the Canadian Government, but the X-Box Series S/X will.\n\nI'm surprised that Bill Gates and Microsoft are not fighting for Canada and Mexico even though they have everything to lose.

Trump is a narcissist and eventually people realize that they have to circumvent the narcissist. You have to learn to detour around them. Canada will eventually do that.

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.

This will destroy Canada. Trump will cut off all trade, and the Canadian economy will collapse. There is nothing the USA needs from Canada.Add that with cutting off aid, Canada will fall into a deep depression... So as a American ,this makes me very happy

Time to raise tariffs on Canada in response.

I dont think Canadians understand that 3 of our states have bigger economies alone than Canada does. This will end very bad for Canada the longer it goes. Hopefully we, and the new incoming Canadian administration, can get it figured out because i dint want to see ordinary Canadians suffer due to the incompetence of their outgoing liberal PM.

I am a Canadian in Alberta and the reality is that the Liberals have weakened the Canadian economy and our standing in the world. Their decision to cripple our oil and gas industry and our lack of ability export our products elsewhere in the world is an issue created by the policies of the Liberals. To impose a carbon tax and further weaker the average Canadian is terrible. There are some policies I don't like out of the U.S. but the reality is that it is never an idea to pick a fight with the toughest kid on the block knowing you will lose. Trump doesn't even want the tariffs he wants Canada to pull it's weight in defense spending and cooperation. Trudeau backstabbed Trump in the past and that won't be forgotten. We need a new government with a leader that understands more than being a drama teacher and snowboarder. Unfortunately, most of the significant issues Canada faces is the result of self inflicted wounds resulting from incompetent leadership. We didn't have anywhere close this level of issues with the Harper government. We are lucky to have the U.S. as a neighbor so let's do what is good for both nations but there is no way the woke Liberal's can do it.

Canada’s current GDP: 2.14 trillion.\nUSA’s current GDP: 27.36 trillion. \n\nAs a Canadian, we’re going to barely make a dent in retaliatory measures and the US has about 6.4 trillion dollars in spending money to completely obliterate us. It’s not smart to retaliate…

As a Canadian, I know that the less than 1% of fentanyl brought from Canada to the U.S were all > Americans bringing it to the U.S. They need to crack down on their own people. We will NOT bow to a Bully, like the Republican party has done to their own disgrace.

Nobody in Canada wants Trudeaux Castro now hes bankrupted Canada ?

Australian here... Go Canada, good to see some class in the world of politics... great media address from your PM.

This needed to be done lets see who suffers more , canada with an economy smaller than texas or usa , canada richest city is poorer than usa poorest city let that sink in .

America is the undefeated MVP of two world wars, you think we’re afraid of a trade war with Canada. ???

This is a TRADE WAR that legally takes money out of the Citizen's pockets of Canada and the United States ... Mexico, is a PUPPET of China This is designed by the W.E.F..

I love Canada

Canada has treated the US unfairly, and clearly, they could correct the situation very quickly, but they chose not to. Americans deserve the right to be protected. We’re taking our best interests first. Thank you, President Trump.

I don't get it. Canada has been stealing from US tax payers for decades under the 1 sides trade agreements..like for 100s of billions? You bitchin about a 25% tariff? Cry me river. Our President is not a DEI hire like those before . ?cheers!!

Canada is squealing because it wants to hold onto the imbalanced relationship.

Trump doesn't accept calls from Canada ofc because this is not about border security nor the 1% fentanyl going into the US. It is about being hawkish and potentially annexation of Canada in the far future. \nThese tariffs make way more sense against Mexico, considering the amount of border issues and fentanyl infiltrating in the US, but tariffs against Canada is just BS.
