2 billion spent on someone else’s war. While laid off thousands of employees and public service due to low budget. There is no one to help local businesses. No service. 👏. Carney is not Capable.

China 1.4 billion, India 1.5 billion, Africa 1.4 billion majority are poor and their countries encourage their people to leave to send back remittances, because they come from failed states. Living in a Republic/Democracy isn't suitable for all cultures. Some cultures are just meant to live under a dictatorship. Not all cultures are equal but it's hard telling libs, feministe, progressives that. They believe everybody has equal value. Even heaven has rules to enter and there are no exceptions/illegals in heaven.

9 dollers a month..😢😢😢 feeling sorry for that girl 😂😂😂...Indians are 1.4 billion strong instead of taking in educated indian class Canadian govt. Chose to gave visas to cheap indian labour class...😂😂😂

Pretty soon Canada is going to have a population of 1 Billion. These people reproduce like rabbits...

Well managed? it costed us over 200 billions in taxes and only made life more costly! It also did put great stress upon the very same institutions our elites told us they the immigrants would work for

Trudeau and the clown show have destroyed this country in record time, the burden on all services has been crippling. Mass deportation? the only thing going on is a mass exodus of long time Canadians. Trudeau followed orders from the Globalist Cabal just as Biden did, doing nothing but increase the socialist vote count by giving away billions of dollars, while stripping down the middle class to the bone. Trudeau should be in jail for Trieason.

Which “Immigrants have historically been a crucial driver of economic expansion in Canada? Where is your empirical evidence, Monsieur? Or, you just said it thinking that we will not pay attention to the fallacy. What a poor social-economic-political analysis. Sorry, Canada cannot take care of the whole world while some Canadians are in dare situation and the influx of immigrants are stifling off the resources and billions are given to foreign country to aid war.

So Trump's strategy did yield a $1.3 billion border plan to stop the flow of drugs.

I Don,t think Americans REALIZE what they are doing to THEMSELVES...Trump doesn,t care about you or anyone for that matter. He has his 500 Billion mineral deal eith Ukraine. He forced poor soul, Zelensky to sign this deal today...Just when this Guy is at his most vulnerable situation with Ukraine. So it is all about ??...no one will be saved in the long run...Because there will be NO military back up, if Russia will attack again after all minerals, have been excavated...So Trump is just as evil as his twin-brother Putin.

In the case of high treason, i.e. treason against the interests of the people of the country. Who came to power? A man who thinks not about the interests of the US people, but about the interests of a handful of billionaires, including political circles in Russia and China. The war against Ukraine is just the tip of the iceberg of the war of the ruling dictatorships of the Russian Federation and China against the poor strata of the people of their own countries, against Western civilization and the US and the EU as a part of it. This is clearly seen in the propaganda against human rights and freedoms in these countries, the destruction of trust between people. What to do in this case? Wait until the US as one of the foundations of modern civilization is destroyed by short-sighted supporters of anarchy, monarchies and psychopathic dictators who do not respect other people's borders and treaties? Doesn't Trump's actions contradict the basic principles of the US and Western civilization? The United States is a country of democracy, humanism, human rights and freedoms, a country that has become home to the world of many people who have improved the quality of life of billions of people all over the planet. Question: When will the current US President/poppet of dictatorships be impeached?

First post you may have billion viewers but you are proved to be a big EMPTY HOLE INSIDE THE BJP . YOU AND YOUR POST IS NEARING ITS END MARK MY WORDS FROM TODAY ...

Right now, 170 million people love Trump (50% of US pop), and over 8 Billion people hate him. Sound familiar?

This is All drama, people are being fooled and being shown a fake fight before they ll be screwed with high inflation. Due to their trillions of discretionary spending on wars and other non productive programs where tax payer’s money siphoned to private pockets, and more money printing and inflation as a result was inevitable, they are just creating a drama before that to make you believe Oh it was Taliban’s fault or Putin’s fault or Hamas fault or now Zelensky’s fault. NO it was all planned. They instigate these scenarios and wage wars to do billions business making money from these conflicts. This is all scripted. We are being fooled and robed. Stock long life things to save something now

This so called stand up guy that’s done as PM in 3 days pledged another 5 billion to Ukraine and announced a 120 billion light rail train in the past 3 weeks and is putting the 4th carbon tax on us April 1 so this speech to me is obsurd - Danielle smith went right to trump and got oil reduced to 10% shoulda follow her lead Trudeau

Justin you Dont engage in a pissing match sgainst a larger bladder you will NOT WIN. \n\nYou have Not showed the USA any good will over 9 years and screwed NATO for Billions

I agree with some things Trump is doing. But fighting with foreign nations is not one of them. Canada even agreed to invest a billion dollars to fixing the border drug issues. But that doesn’t seem enough for Trump still.

This is Trudeaus wish come true. Trump will be a distraction to the fact he's a bloody rogue thats ruined Canada, sent billions to Ukraine while Canadians cannot afford teir owh homes,.

The US is not going to feel shit compared to Canada\n\nHere are the numbers:\n\n*Canada's Exports to the US:*\nTotal Percentage: 60.3%\nValue in US Dollars: $69.2 billion\n\n*US Exports to Canada:*\nTotal Percentage: 18.3%\nValue in US Dollars: $27.9 billion

The United States has elected a president who is turning its longest-standing allies into adversaries. This isn't just about Canada. The entire Western world is watching. While the U.S. has the power to harm its allies, those allies also have the ability to push back, and the USA is rapidly losing friends who may not return. As America’s alliances weaken, so do the obstacles its rivals face. \n\nTake Australia, for example. Should it continue aligning with the U.S. in the Asia-Pacific region? Should it continue hosting critical American surveillance infrastructure? Should it keep supporting and supplying the U.S. fleet? The USA enjoys a trade surplus with us, but do we need to spend USD$50 billion over the next decade buying your hardware? The Europeans seem to be a more trustworthy ally, who don't make us a target.\n\nThe USA would argue that their presence ensures security, but the reality is that countries like Australia only face threats because they are tied to U.S. strategic interests. Perhaps a more pragmatic approach that avoids unnecessary antagonism with China would serve us better. \n\nAs for Canada, it will adapt and find new trading partners, just as Australia did when China attempted economic coercion. And through it all, Canada, know that Australia will stand with you—always.

Maybe it's just about money. You can earn money on the stock market from both falling and rising prices. You just have to know in advance how the markets will react to certain announcements. The same thing works with Bitcoin and other crypto currencies. Here you can make billions for your own pocket. Think about it...

They're doing the ON/OFF tariffs for insider trading purposes ??? they're all in on the coins and now they're all in on insider trading, they raking in billions, the NEWS outlets are loving it, big ratings and viewership for them❤❤❤

Based on the trade data, Canada would likely be in a worse position in a trade war with the United States. Here's why:\n\n1. Canada sends approximately 75% of its total exports to the US, while the US only sends about 18% of its exports to Canada. This creates a significant asymmetry in dependency.\n\n2. The US economy (around $27 trillion) is roughly 13 times larger than Canada's economy (about $2.1 trillion), giving the US more cushion to absorb economic shocks.\n\n3. he US typically runs a trade deficit with Canada (approximately $135 billion in goods in 2023), which means Canada sells more to the US than it buys, making Canadian producers more vulnerable to US tariffs.\n\n4. The US has more diversified export markets globally, while Canada is heavily reliant on the US market.\n\nThat said, a trade war would harm both countries:\n\n- Highly integrated supply chains, especially in automotive manufacturing, would be disrupted\n- Border regions in the US would face significant economic impacts\n- US consumers would face higher prices for Canadian goods (energy, raw materials)\n- Specific US industries dependent on Canadian inputs would face challenges\n\nWhile Canada would likely face more severe macroeconomic consequences, a trade war would ultimately be lose-lose, damaging industries and consumers on both sides of the border.

Make it 10000 billion%. That'll show how ridiculous the whole thing is.

The real reason US put tariffs on Canada: \n\nCanada has zero nukes- so they have zero deterrence. The USA has 3,748 nukes. \nCanada has zero aircraft carriers. The USA has 11 nuclear aircraft carriers. The entire rest of the world has 16, but only one is nuclear. \nCanada has zero destroyers! The USA has 65 Top Tier destroyers. \nCanada has only 85 operational fighter jets, but they are outdated and scheduled to be replaced. The USA has 2,740 with 786 being the latest Gen. \nCanada has 82 Leopard 2 tanks and only some are third Gen. The US has 8,100 tanks and they are all third Gen. \n2.3 million Canadians own 12 million guns, but many are low caliber and low use/capable. Canadians privately hold about 2.3 Billion rounds of ammo, but most is smaller caliber hunting rounds. \n81 million Americans own about 400 Million guns with extensive capabilities and usability, including permitted full automatic. The storehouse of privately held ammo is massive in the range of 2 to 25 trillion rounds. \n40% of Americans are raised in a gun culture and develop and hone their weapon use skills for a lifetime. 22% of Canadians have a similar gun culture. \n \nCanada has gotten away with having a weak military and saving enormous costs by not having to produce or buy military equipment. \n\nThe USA has never charged a fee for providing deterrence to potential enemies, and in fact pays Canada on a massive trade deficit instead. Canada exacerbates their precarious situation, by continuing to take guns away from their population.

1.3 billion on ourselves and our neighbour. 5 billion to Ukraine.......

This is all just noise, at some point Trump is gonna give the top 1% a 2000..4000 Billion $ tax cut, claiming the tariffs paid for them

This guy, as well as every Liberal on earth are completely and utterly clueless and idiotic!! Trump isn't taking sides with Putin! Trump understands that BOTH Zelenskyy and Putin must sit down and agree to a peace agreement... THAT'S IT! Putin is ready.. but Zelenskyy doesn't want to even try.. for one simple reason.. MONEY! he knows that if the war ends, the gravy train called American money comes to an end... Billions of dollars is unaccounted for! Let's put our thinking caps on for just a moment.. where do you think that money disappeared to? Billions of dollars doesn't just vanish in thin air! So now that Trump is putting an end to Zelenskyy's gravy train and has called for the war to end, for people to stop dying and for peace to happen.. that makes him on Putin's side!?!? Good lord .. if this were Obama or even Biden getting this deal done in the same fashion, the media and these same liberals would be calling them heroes! They would be up for the Nobel Peace prize! And liberals wonder why they lost so terribly in November!!!

But Trump administration still sending millions of billions help and aid to Israel?

The trade deficit between US and Canada is enormous! 420 billion from Canada to US, 65 billion from US to Canada! What's the benefits of putting tariff on US goods boy?!

Dumb Americans being bamboozled by their government, Trump, Musk, and Zelensky. \n\nThere is NO rare earth elements in Ukraine. ?\n\nThis is another coverup and plan to make Americans THINK they are getting something in return for the hundreds of billions that's been washed in Ukraine, while the government spends billions more tax dollars to have US boots in Ukraine and act like they're doing something in rare earth. A big fake show and more snake oil. ?? ? ?? ? \n\nFYI: Russia helped end the US Civil War and ensured the north won. Purchasing Alaska was the cover up for giving Russia $7.2 million for their help in the war. \n?? ?

I like how he said everything has never been safer and more secure, yet pledges billions to solve the problem

PM TRUDEAU, Vive le Canada!! Stand tall, most Americans did not vote for Donald Trump the traitor, compulsive liar, his new play stooge - Elon Musk, who was not an elected official - he bought his “special employee position” by donating\n$6 billion to his presidential campaign! \n\nTrump is not trustworthy, he never was, he’s a compulsive liar, always was, he manipulates people - always did to get his way, he doesn’t know American history or European history- never did, he adored reading about Adolf Hitler and how he manipulated the German people to turn against Jews and minorities just like what is being done today by his REPUBTARD PARTY who are afraid to stand up against SATAN -this is who TRUMP sold his soul to to gain the White House including Putin,

Canada already had tariffs on certain U.S. goods before the recent trade disputes escalated in 2025. Historically, Canada has maintained tariffs on various American products to protect its domestic industries, particularly in sectors like agriculture and manufacturing. For example, under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (USMCA), which replaced NAFTA and was signed during Donald Trump’s first term, trade between the U.S. and Canada is largely tariff-free for many goods. However, Canada has long imposed high tariffs on specific U.S. products outside of these agreements, such as dairy, poultry, and eggs, under its supply management system. These tariffs can reach up to 270% on milk, 245% on cheese, and nearly 300% on butter, designed to shield Canadian producers from foreign competition.\n\nAdditionally, Canada has applied tariffs on other U.S. goods over the years, often in response to trade disputes or to balance economic interests. For instance, before the latest round of tariffs in 2025, Canada had tariffs on thousands of product categories, though the exact scope and rates varied depending on the goods and trade agreements in place. Posts found on X also highlight sentiment that Canada has had tariffs on U.S. products like dairy and cars for decades, with some claiming rates as high as 25% on U.S. vehicles—though this may reflect specific cases rather than a blanket policy.\n\nIn contrast, the U.S. generally did not impose broad tariffs on Canadian goods until recent actions under President Trump, who introduced a 25% tariff on Canadian imports effective March 4, 2025, prompting Canada to retaliate with reciprocal 25% tariffs on CA$155 billion of U.S. goods. This retaliation built on Canada’s existing tariff framework but escalated the scale significantly. So, while Canada did have tariffs on U.S. goods beforehand, the current trade war has intensified the situation far beyond the pre-existing measures

Nice Trudeau spent billions on tightening the border for drugs and illegals. They cant even do anything with rash of car thieves going on in Toronto. Cars get stolen goes to the shipyard to be put in cargos to be sent to Middle East or Africa. They reduse to do search warrant or halt those shipments. Waste of billion of dollars on borders.

The U.S. goods trade deficit with Canada was $63.3 billion in 2024. Why Canada don’t like USA products Mr. Trudou?

Trump Holds All Cards. Europe & Canada have siphoned Billions while sticking it to America on Trade!!! Its called reciprocal trade!! Whatever you tax us we tax you!! The subsidizing is over. Canadian drugs kill. Cry because we match your tax in U.S. ? ???

Some persons were just talking about their sentiments on their personal point of view but looking at US point of view, know that the US trade deficit (Deficit exists where US import from another nation to US exceeds US export to that nation from US) with Canada exceeded 58 billion dollars in 2024; with Mexico is more than 170 billion dollars in 2024; and with China is more than 295 billions dollars in 2024. In the Philippines, Philippine entrepreneurs and the like who are exporting their products had been enjoying tax incentives (It does mean when exports live the country versus imports being received by the country then) as Philippine export earning is the one making the Philippine economy richer with money gained while import is making the money to go out of the country (going out as cost or expense) then while being revenue of another country (so that the profit of a country which is revenue less the expense is obviously what is the truth about any argument about tariff (which in a way is discriminating the deficit in becoming wider and wider to the pleasure of those who loved imported goods then).

Sadly Taiwan just backed down and gave Trump whatever he wants. TSMC pledged 100 billion US dollar investment in the US to produce and research the most advanced chips in exchange for empty promise from Trump. Our government is spineless.

Whelp, so much for that Gordie Howe International bridge. Spent $4 billion to NOT enhance trade with Canada

So here's the thing smart guy if you're terrifying us and we decided to tear up you back at the same rate, you're doing us wise that us being the bad guy? It's a pretty simple question. Why do we have tariffs at all on each other? If we're all just trying to get along and why are we giving you billions of dollars? When you're not a part of our country, why do we protect you militarily?\n And your citizens. We don't get paid for any of that and that's a lot of money.\nNot including everything you're using the b**** and wine about what we do.America Or invented The reason why you have free medical is because well we pay for it basically That in your citizens And something like sixty to eighty percent of all medical breakthroughs happened in The united states , which means we also Substitute Everything medical that you guys have pretty much so therefore we paid for that

trudeau all you have done for Canada and Canadians in 10 years is try your best to destroy us. Why should we believe anything you say. How many $ billions have you embezzled? The worst thing is you gave iot to fake agencies overseas that looks like money laundering. NOTHING for Canada or Canadians. I'll steal your words to trump. This and you are REALLY DUMB!

USA =Governor Trudeau\nCAnada =DONALD \n\nUSA= Billions and Billions and Billions.\nCANADA=?\n\nUSA= I love putin \nCANADA= NA

Im from Vancouver. Our government has lots of work to do with fentanyl. Chinese gangs run our ports. Downtown Vancouver is a zombie land , getting larger everyday. Billions laundered through our backyard. It’s certainly a problem.

It's important to remember that it's not kind or respectful to make fun of someone for their appearance or cultural practices.1st you have to know that USA is 65 $ billion Trade Deficit with Canada Do you know how it will effect USA citizen cost will increase on average person Even i am not USA Citizen or even i didn't visited USA at present my country have trade Deficit many countries in my country very hard to live in India

Poutin is not a dictator. Zelenskyy is making fool of you by grabbing hard earned taxpayers money. Already grabbed billions. Thats why Trump kicked his butt.

I'm a Canadian. I am trying to wrap my head around why a President would start a trade war by imposing tariffs that hurt their allies and hurt his own people..!? I am not an economist nor an investor; However I found it interesting that the immediate result of this as they corresponded about this news is how the markets are taking a major dive. If I wanted to make money off the stock market and had no morals and had the power to cause it to crash, I would make sure it crashed hard by imposing tariffs. Then I would invest as many billions in the key stocks that will come back, and watch my billions turn into 10's or 100's of billions...\nThe other possible explanation could simply be that he wants all the critical minerals from Canada, Greenland, Ukraine for nothing. Taking those minerals for free and selling electric cars, miliatary equipment, etc. would be most profitable!\nBut greed seems to know no bounds for those who are wealthy, as long as it's at their gain and not at their expense!

President Trump doesn't care. The US has been subsidizing Canada's electrical grid for over $250 million dollars a year. Canada will loose that. In addition, US automotive industries like stellantis are moving productions back to the US from Canada. Canada has been charging the US dairy products 250% in tariffs, US Bourbon and whiskey 180% for over 4 years. China has been charging Ford 200% tariff so much so that ford can no longer afford to sell their vehicles in China.....all these outrageously high tariffs were designed to protect their domestic products.... China was suposed to spend 4 billion dollars a year in US goods but they have been consistently spending only 1.9 billion each year . Trade deficit of over 2 billion dollars. What sane person would allow this to happen in a free market and call this fair trades????? I have no knowledge of this until recently.

America has subsidized you fools $200 billion a year.\n\nWe don't need anything you have

So Americans must be rich now since they kept their billions of $ not sending to Ukraine and other countries, so box of egg should be 1$ by now?! ?

Maybe if Trudeau gave that 3 billion to the states and pay down canadas debt, instead of laundering it through Ukrain we wouldn't be talking about this today
