The tariff money is going Straight into Trumps pocket. Why else would he implement this nonsensical act.

wait.. i thought Tariffs only hurt the citizens in the country that's implementing them? oh thats just a talking point the left spews.

So implementing reciprocal tariffs is tantamount to a “trade war”?

President Krasnov implementing his orders

As an American, I applaud your response and would make only one change. Instead of saying that 'America' did this, please more precisely state that the Trump administration is implementing these Trade War acts. ✌

America should implement a federal sales tax if it's really wanting to raise federal income, not pretend it's about 'trade' and try to make other countries suffer too for what it chooses to do to it's own citizens and economy.

No we, the USA, just responded to the trade war Canada has implemented against USA for decades

maybe tariffs implemented not because of drugs, but just because JD Vance thinks that Canadians were not thankful enough

that's bc both donald & vladimir are criminal thugs felons trump is compromised putin has the goods on his ass starting with pics of melania displayed mockingly on Russian state tv recently \ndems & R's with A sense wtf are you doing in a small room implementing a take back America strategy hopefully

this goofball started the trade war by implementing DIGITAL SERVICE TAX against americans. its funny this is avoided to be mentioned at all costs.

Trudeau didn't mention the 23% carbon tax coming to Canada April 1st. On top of the other carbon tax increases. Make that make sense! U.S lucky they dud not implement this garbage under Biden.

Perhaps America's president should look at the programs Canada implements and make American a great place to live again, and the American people would not be enticed to take Fentanyl to get through the miserable lives some have to deal with on a daily basis!

Canada will be implementing 25% tariffs against $155 billion worth of American goods, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a press conference Tuesday. \n \nSpeaking from Ottawa, Trudeau said there was “absolutely no justification or need whatsoever” for the tariffs imposed by the US on Canada, which went into effect today. \n \nThe prime minister explained that $30 billion worth of US goods would see tariffs immediately, while the remaining $125 billion worth of goods would see tariffs in 21 days. \n \nTrudeau added that Canada will file claims at the World Trade Organization, but in the meantime, “our tariffs will remain in place until the US tariffs are withdrawn and not a moment sooner.” \n \nThe prime minister also again hit back against US assertions about Canada being unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl. \n \nHe said the legal pretext Trump presented for the justification of the tariffs —“that Canada is apparently unwilling to help in the fight against illegal fentanyl” — is “totally false.”

The housing bubble was fueled by near zero interest rate polich implemented my Mark Carney during his tenure as the head of the Bank of Canada. Yes. That Mark Carney, the same one that is about to come Prime Minister.

One of the lessons that Canada could learn from Singapore is the implementation of a 99-year ownership lease. In societies with high home owner occupancy, it's difficult to introduce property cooling measures without political pushback from majoritarian home owners. A limited term lease allows for renewal within the property market, allowing new entrants and preventing accrual of property capital wealth.

My problem with the doom and gloom is people love to blame all our problem on the current PM and “wokeness”. I am not saying JT and the Liberals don’t deserve any criticism they do but all the time it’s for all the wrong reasons. Public Housing is a provincial issue, Healthcare is a provincial issue zoning is a municipal issue. However all of these issues are made worse by lack of public housing funding (looking at you Doug Ford) and nimbyism at the municipal level (looking at you Rob Ford and almost every mayor large Canadian cites have had). My parents hate JT now because property prices came down slightly but they loved him during Covid when prices went through the roof. When the liberals implemented the mortgage stress test they hated him and voted conservative in 2019 because Andrew Scheer went on the news and said he will get rid of it. When the liberals got rid of the stress test on first time homebuyers they loved the liberals again. They are property developers so they don’t mind paving over the Agricultural land reserve but god forbid a fourplex is built in our neighborhood. However I am not too cynical I have seen progress by the current government AFTER THEY WHERE -20pts in the polls. Now I just hope the Tories don’t get rid of the Housing accelerator fund and other funds that will make a impact in 10 years.

Land Value tax needs to be implemented, and zoning abolished

Dear Canada,\nI hope you fix the employment problems and stop employers from hiring non-resident under contract for below minimum wage rather than a resident or a local before you start implementing new streams for said non-residents and new immigrants. A lot of you locals are struggling to land employment because of the fact. Employers are taking advantage of this loophole for to lower cost of employments. And it's unfair for us locals and residents. \nIt's just unfair you see, it's not right that employers prioritize non-residents just because they can lowball them and this individuals won't have any issue with or say any word since they are given employment. Employments should be fair. \nThe labor law should have more stricter rules on such things because employers are taking advantage of this very lax rule. And should have a law that supports employees too against abusive employers or employers who just don't care as long as they profit. \n\nSincerely,

Each country have to protect its citizens. They implement policies and can change it at any time.

US Gov should implement a 'Cane' law system (to hit someone with a long, thin stick as a punishment) for all these illegal immigrants...before deporting them back. In few years' times, the reinforcement team will know where to check for repeated offenders.

No benefits for non citizens have been implemented. What are they going to do in America? Live on the streets? They’re going to have to break the law to survive so just keep them out.

I live in ny. Stop giving us federal funding if dictator Kathy won’t implement the law.

Decades of wrong policies, wrong politics got us all here.\nA lot of people got rich others got richer with this stinking imigration issue.\nSome of the upholders and creators and implementers of these lunacies should go to jail.\nThey tried to make a holiday camp out of America for these morons that came from miserable countries.

Canada's unemployment rate in 2025 is expected to be in the high-6% range. However, some predict that it could rise to 7.5% by mid-2025 (official numbers) and probably closer to 30% or over. The official number is adjusted only to reflect those with active E.I. claims. Before and if the U.S. tariff will be implemented on Mach 1st.

It's only the Alberta premier that has stepped up security Alberta is the only one implementing drones and helicopters New dogs new border patrol agents it's only happening in Alberta she is the only one taking this seriously not only for Americans but for Albertans, we refused to bring in legalized drugs, it doesn't work very well just take a look at BC in Ontario seriously and Quebec Quebec is really bad as well they are really bad with policies and honestly I wish that Americans would look at Alberta and Saskatchewan as different than the rest of Canada because we are, we really might as well just be American honestly

2:10 - Trump didn't force Canada to do anything. We already intended and planned to implement the increases at the border; Trump just took credit for it despite doing nothing, same as always.

Trump didn't force anything. Canada was already implementing the increased border measures before he was even in office. How about you american'ts do something about all the illegal firearms and drugs coming into Canada that are going to criminals and funding them. You people can shut the f up.

WAKE UP AND MAN-UP AMERICA! \nProtest don't just happen; they are planned, funded, and organized. These few protests are organized by the NEO-MARXIST COMMUNISTS (including 78 democrats, who are members of the Communist party of the US). \n \nThese communist democrats are an absolute threat to our constitution and nation, their agenda is to dismantle our republic, and constitution and replace it with a socialist system! History has shown that socialism does NOT work. Where there is socialism there is CENSORSHIP, corruption, poverty, totalitarianism, and torture. \n \nThe communist democrats, in their arrogance think they know what is better for the people. We, the real WORKING-CLASS American’s have not been on the streets, we are too busy putting bread on the table. However, our patience is wearing thin with the Marxist democrats, their lies, and their woke agenda! \n \nWhat the democrats have been doing with tax payers’ money is more sinister than “waste, fraud, and abuse.” THE Neo-Marxist (COMMUNIST) DEMOCRATS were using this extensive bureaucracy (aka “independent agencies”) to backdoor our constitution by implementing certain laws through certain agencies, and moving black funds through these entities to fund Marxist programs. \n \nThese agencies either need to be shut down or brought under the executive function. The communist democrats are pissed because their deliberate dismantling of our constitution was discovered, and now is being reversed. They are traitors (Bernie Sanders. AOC, Ilhan Omar, and others) who should be jailed, now. \n \nAnyone who does not believe in the constitution of the USA; leave our country and leave now! When we the people hit the streets, it will be in the tens of thousands. And we will roll over the neo-Marxist wokers like a tsunami. Socialism will never happen in the USA; socialism will never replace our constitution. WE LOVE TRUMP! He is a PATRIOT! \nMAN-UP America.

You'll have to implement a TSA system for buses if you want to stop this. No one is going to go for that. Including Trump. I'd be for it, but it's not happening. Too many bus stops. You'd have to have 3 shifts of TSA people at every dinky place in the US.

Words to the wise Border patrol officers need to start popping enter at your own risk. Whatever happens happens no question ask no harm done New policies should implement.

I can envision a situation where Trump targets Australia next with his aggressive policies. In response, we should consider implementing a boycott against American products and establish tariffs on imports from the United States. It's essential that we stand firm and refuse to let Trump and his administration intimidate us into submission. Australia deserves to protect its interests and maintain its sovereignty in the face of such bullying tactics.

This is because the Canada Immigration Department has failed to identify those who are not eligible to stay and hold them accountable. This failure has strained public resources and services, leading to increased pressure on housing, healthcare, and social support systems. It has also caused tensions within communities, as the majority of people feel that the system is being exploited. Additionally, it undermines public confidence in the immigration process, making it more challenging to implement fair and effective policies.

This right here, is why like Poland ?? they’ll implement warnings that you will be shot if you attempt to cross into border cities ILLEGALLY ‼️\n\nAnd Rightfully so ‼️\n\nMass Disruption will eventually NOT be tolerated in ANY COUNTRY ☝️

They stepped onto quicksand knowing fully well what could happen to them if they get sucked in. What they did brought them to this fate hence they are not right to complain but yes the Indian public who are seeing it happen have the right to raise their eye brows or frown upon those who hand cuffed & leg chained them during their entire journey. All I can say is that what happened is a Shame & we cannot blame the law nor the law makers nor who implement the law to be lenient to any one on the matter of their National Importance. All what we can do is submit a petition requesting for leniency for the next batches of returnees& May they never again break the law for personal gains nor to compromise the National security of any free country of this planet including The USA.

When we look at Trump's view, he looks like to be right because he wants to send immigrants, such as Indian and Pakistani, back to their countries to remove those who have committed or may potentially commit crimes. However, he does not implement this decision in a way that aligns with human rights. Therefore, he should solve this immigration problem in a way that respects human rights.

India is becoming a fool for not implementing strict actions on rhohingya muslims from bangladesh. They destabilize nations econony and socio religious structure and destroy the nation by multiple marriages and irresponsibly producing children to get free rice, subsidies, houses, with fake adhar cards and when they reach 30 percent of population they will kill and not allow other religious people to live. Stonkng, land grabings, encroachments, shouting in loud speakers, shitting on roads for yelling, robbing, cheating, rapes, sheltering terrorists and criminals...

WELL IT IS LOGIC RATIONAL TO DEPORT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ENTERING AND I ER STAYING WITHOUT PROPER DOCUMENTS AND NOT GO IN ACCORDING TO IMMIGRATION AND LABOR LAW AS BEEN IMPLEMENTED IN EVERY COUNTRY LIKE IN MIDDLE EAST JAPAN EUROPE AUSTRALIA

Implement Marshall Law NOW

AS AN AFROAMERICAN OF SLAVE LINEAGE (BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS EXPERIENCED IN THE MAKING OF AMERICA.)\nAS AN AFROAMERICAN I \nUÑDERSTAND. THEY ARE DESERVING OF ALL AMERICA'S RESOURCES AS HISTORICALLY THEY IMPLEMENTED MANY OF THEM AND LABORED IN THE\nPROCESS OF MAKING \nAMERICA\nBLESSED/GREAT. THEY LIKED HOW GOD BLESSED AMERICA.

I expect Trump to implement tariffs on the EU, after the election in Germany. If he did it before, the German voters might be reminded of how much sense it makes to be in the EU, which is strong enough to stand up to the US and its bully in chief. People might be less prone to vote for the party that wants to leave the trading block (AfD).

When is Malaysia going to do the same?\nThere are so many citizens from Africa that one can't understand why they are here in the first place. Also many foreigners from Bangladesh, Indonesia n Myanmar, marrying here to get their children to have Msian citizenship. Look around n see how many of them are getting married, even to locals just to get privilages of their spouses bumiputra status. If a big country like America can implement rules to send all illegal immigrants back, how a small nation is unable to do the same, baffles us. Corruption is the main problem. We sell our souls to the devil to gain Earthly possessions n wealth on the aspects of destroying our country due to massive forms of greed n ignorance.\nIf these traits are not curtailed from becoming a huge loss for the country by prevention, than expect a No Cure situation that'll rob the Peace of a country.

One minute they say american tarriffs will only hurt amdricans, next minute canada implements tarriffs? Surely these tarriffs will only hurt canadians based on their logic, so which is it?

Theodore Roosevelt. President Theodore Roosevelt believed that America's economic growth was due to the protective tariffs, which helped her industrialize. He acknowledged this in his State of the Union address from 1902: The country has acquiesced in the wisdom of the protective-tariff principle. 13 colony's ,lol tariffs from 1786 to 1909 built the usa . usa got worst when we stop tariffs in 1913 then went to a income tax's \nhow think we buy Alaska from the Russia , French... buy Alaska and The Louisiana Purchase was the 1803 acquisition of the Louisiana Territory from France by the United States with the income from tariff's. president Lincoln During the war, Lincoln implemented a 44% tariff to help pay for the war effort and to subsidize railroads. \nThe tariff remained at this level after the war.

I’m just wondering if tariffs hurt the people from the country that implements them than why is Canada imposing tariffs back on the US!

I often wonder how individuals of such limited intellectual capacity manage to ascend to positions of elite power. Does Donald Trump even possess a functioning brain? His haphazard implementation of tariffs, left and right, raises the question: who ultimately bears the cost? Spoiler alert—it's the American people. In short, Trump is fabricating excuses to line his own pockets, masquerading as a so-called 'businessman' while operating more like a seasoned scammer. Cough Businessman? Hardly.

Plenty of other coountries to do business with - just a little time to implement - US is already second to China GDP - will be for ever.
