Wow, you start pointing fingers at leaders of other countries yet nothing about the genocide leader of that other country? You sound like such a whiny pathetic leader, no wonder your country hates you. Stop trying to scare us the common folks, deal with the problem directly with the US fascist but he has zero respect for you. How did both you & ? get elected ?

A lot of us don’t want this either. This is not why Trump was elected.

The credibility of the US has been in the toilet ever since US populace in their infinite wisdom decided to elect this moron again.

Justin Trudeau is a Dildo with Ears, and is the reason for the US tariffs, along with the dairy cabal in Quebec. Canadians want an election NOW!!!

A very impressive leader, US can only dream about this kind of president. US elected an idiot into the WH who is kissing Putin's ass. Americans will regret this when they pay with food stamps for their groceries (if Elon does not take that away too) or stand in line in the soup kitchen and can not pay their mortgage or rent and move into their junk Winebego

Can we please just call it what it is? It's not the US, it's the Trump Tarriffs. It's the Trumpers. The rest of America did not want this, him. More than half that voted didn't vote for him. This is not the US, this is Trump and his people. And imagine that, an abuser was elected and now he's doing exactly what abusers do, remove us from friends and family so that we only have him to rely on.

This man is going to have us in a war, and when it starts, remember, we blk ppl are DEI ppl, we don't qualify, so leave our kids out of it! Send the maga kids! tRump is doing everything to recoup the money he Elon and Putin for their help in rigging the election fr him, that's what this really abt

Liberals got business relationship with Canada, Europe, and China. That’s why they’re defending them so bad and they don’t care if that’s gonna cost US citizens all their pocket money.\nPeople elect Donald Trump by majority accept it

Why this. Your government has chosen these tariffs” should be “YOU, the US people, have chosen these tariffs and destructive policies.” Are you going to let HIM and THEM do this to you the people? Please don’t run away from YOUR elected officials, they work for YOU!

This is the coorect answer from Trudeau! I belive, that the USA will have no president-elections in 3 1/2 years. Trump will rise a dicatorship. He signed the same dicrets who Hitler signed in 1933. Belive me: I'm from Germany. We europeans know of many dictaroships (faschism, comunism). Hope, the US will be democtratic. Before, many european countries will boycott US-products. It will be hard for the USA. Mr. Musk losed 15 Bio. $ with his car-facories in the last weeks in Europe.

We want a friggin election all Canadians want you and your cabinet in jail Justin you bunch of crooks you ripped off Canada and US call an election already

I’m sorry that Trump is so unreasonable. Trump only cares about the income that will benefit the rich, himself and power. The tariffs will effects jobs and people. Trump is an embarrassment to most of the people here. Elon Musk help him win the election by paying people to vote for Trump which I think should be against the law. Trump is putting the USA in a very dangerous place. Most of us stand with Canada and Ukraine but no one can bring Trump to reason. I really think Trump is plain outride stupid. Please keep fighting for Canada.

It’s amazing how left-leaning individuals like to commend themselves on being “educated” but can’t even define how this war started, or why Biden/State dept. sent billions to Ukraine. Plain and simple, Zelensky was going to sellout, until the state department sent “Red Lines Memo,” which Google search actively buries in other conveniently similar named pieces of information. But it’s out there, straight from the U.S. government. F*** the Russians but F*** the deep state even more, with agendas so well hidden, that we bicker back and forth about “morals.” We, the U.S. citizens have become nothing more than a cog of propaganda since the Smith-Mundt “modernization” Act—allowing US gov to propagandize us.\n\nLet’s think—elected officials officials have classified information but very rarely act on it because it doesn’t align with their constituents concerns. How can the dark corners of FBI, CIA, State department get elected officials onboard? By manipulating what we see and bolstering the voices aimed towards elected officials.\n\nI don’t know if getting into and getting out of Ukraine is/was/will be good for the overall country, but I do know shady tactics have been used to get us there and individuals need to be held accountable.

Canadian, European (EU), British statesmanship and desire to adhere to agreements and the rule of law 10/10; US 1/10. This is what happens when the USA elects a criminal, clueless, senile dolt with a mental age of five as President.

Hi, American citizen here. Please know that half of us are so, so embarrassed to be part of the United States and to have Trump as our president. I cannot put into words how upsetting it is to know that so many people elected him a second time.

Do what you have to do Trudeau. We don’t blame you in America. Trump is disgracing us all over the world running this country into the ground. The stock market is down. Prices are up joblessness is up and this is before the tariffs. Maybe when these red state people can’t afford food, they will wake up to what we knew Our entire lives, watching the news in New York growing up. Trump‘s grandfather led to Europe to avoid mandatory military service. Not a single member of his family in-laws or any generation has ever served in the military. He has screwed over every contractor and blue-collar worker that ever works for him while grouping young, teen girls at his beauty pageants. Simultaneously bankrupting several casinos Trump state Trump airline Trump Water Stealing all the money from his charity, so he is never allowed to run a charity again and somehow, these morons elected him to be president of our country. If we have to hurt a little bit to get this cancer removed from our country so be it. Make America great again by praying for Trump to choke on a big Mac.

Trump supporters, you have put our country in peril in many ways by electing this unqualified, dishonest charlatan. God help us all.

The US is a country with a majority of idiots that elected Donald twice. \nDon't your understand you can't bully the world anymore?

You don’t have to tell us the obvious! Our president is a feeble minded fool and he has been a failure his whole life! The republicans have no backbone Musk said he will put his money up in the next election! We want to see Musk have no money! We want to see X taken off of the airwaves! I’m from a state that voted this idiot in to office and I want you to make the red states pay tremendously that will give us the numbers to stop this criminal regime! May god bless Canada and I will only spend my money with products from Canada that America can’t prosper from! There are many with us on this fight that we must win and we shall friends in Canada! Signed old man from Ohio with a brain and a heart!

Time to kick US out as the world leader at let Canada take over. The world needs a country that is literally defined by politeness instead of a country that chose to elect a president that attacks its allies.

Let's be blunt. A madman was propelled into the most powerfull position in the world because swing states tilted the outcome of this rigged election. A madman, an extremely deranged individual that will turn the US into a mirror image of putin's russia. Explain to me why people chose to vote against themselves? Some people chose to allow a madman to drag them into their own destruction, I did not!

I still can't understand why so many continue to support the compulsive liar that is in control of the US. Why? Why? How in this world was he elected?

This is the kind of President we need, but definitely don't have one close like this. TRUMP IS AN EVIL BOZO. The fact that we elected him speaks volumes of the dumbing down of America. His followers are idiots. They will suffer from him very soon. His policies are sooooo anti-family, anti-middle class. You Trump voters have brought the devil upon us all.

Well, of course you KNOW WHY THIS IS happening, don't you ????\nWhy can't people get the fact that it is Elon Musk who is making the call here ????\nHe wants to control the world ?. \nSo, by bringing CANADA ?? TO HER KNEES, it could make it easier for the US to take over CANADA ??.....\nNone of those who are running ?‍♂️ IN the ELECTION CAN MEASURE UP....THEY JUST CAN'T...\nAND FREELAND WILL DO TERRIBLE THINGS. \nI FOR ONE DO ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUST HER...\nTRUDEAU MADE SOME EXTREMELY BAD CALLS BY LETTING FAR TOO MANY IMMIGRUNTS\nINTO THE COUNTRY AND THE CARBON TAX WAS A FLATLINE FAIL......\nHOWEVER, NO MATTER WHO WINS THE ELECTION, \nTHEY WILL FLUB UP EVEN WORSE BECAUSE NONE OF THEM ARE CAPABLE. \nALL THE WORK TRUDEAU IS DOING BY NEGOTIATING WITH OTHER COUNTRIES FOR COMMERCE WILL BE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG AFTER THIS NEW ELECTION....\nTRUMPF WANTS ALL OUR RESOURCES AND WATER.\nHE WILL DO EVERYTHING HE CAN TO BRING CANADA ?? TO HER KNEES..\nI'm deathly afraid of what's coming .\nCanada has free health care. \ntrumpf and helon Musk will grab our pensions....\nI PRAY ? TO ALL THAT IS HOLY,\nWE DO NOT BECOME PREY....

Bro, Canada tariffs are a drop in the bucket... You don't buy enough from us to make a dent on that front.. Btw, you're speaking to a bunch of people who lost the election... STFU and drive your square -wheeled car to a library and read a book while you resign and let that other guy run your country your corrupt POS.

An ex-KGB chief: “In 1987 I worked in… the KGB of the USSR in Moscow… our department recruited the 40 year-old businessman from the USA, Donald Trump, nicknamed “Krasnov”. That’s when Trump starts buying full-page ads attacking NATO. “Putin is doing a great job of outsmarting our country.” He says. Steele report: Russian operatives gathered damaging video evidence of perverted sex acts of presidential candidate in 2013, for blackmail. Mueller said “There were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election.” Trump campaign had more than 140 contacts with Russian operatives, and Trump attempted to obstruct justice at least ten times. Campaign chair lied about then finally admitted to sharing info with Russian spy. Trump, ignoring US intelligence said: “…Putin, he just said it wasn’t Russia. I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be.” Secret meeting in Trump Tower with Russkies. Jared attempts to set up secret back channel to Russia in the Russian embassy. Trump to NATO member on prospect of Russian attack on their country “In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.” Trump: “If Putin likes Donald Trump… That’s called an asset…” Yeah, a Russian asset. FBI chief Kash Patel was paid $25,000 to appear in anti-FBI video by Russian backers. “The love in the air, I’ve never seen anything like it” Trump said of January 6 rioters, some of them cop-killers… “Russia if you’re listening…” “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily…” Yes, they own a seditious, treasonous felonious American president. All allegedly…

USA don't be fooled by JT here - Canadian here - this is all for show. He resigned as PM and they are too busy screwing around to get a new leader to become PM then holding Canada hostage with no election in sight. He prouged Parliament, basically shutting it down, for this leadership game and none of them are qualified leaders. It will be the same. \n\nWe needed a vote of non-confidence years ago and it was voted out because Liberals had a coalition with the NDP. Canada needs a conservative government and if we did have this - we would not be here now. \n\nAmerica - you pissed off Canada who was already pissed off to being with and now you have amplified it more so. We have no money because it all went into this guys and his friends pockets. The scandals are so long that they can't be listed here. Thanks for ripping us off even more so now. We helped you - now you help us!

I have never been so embarrassed to be an American. Its heart breaking that we allowed this to happen even with all the warning signs. I have protested, attended town halls, emsiled all my state representatives and every attempt can only have power if the people we elected go to bat for us. They are not doing so. Americans who know this is absolutely unacceptable will scream as loud as we can to stop this dictator but we need to help of the higher ups. Please...for the love of God, get this man out of the seat of power until it is too late. Maybe it already is.

Trump is a problem to the developed countries but a bitter blessing to the third world countries. Look at African countries they have everything that nature can provide they are capable of standing on their two F... Foot but the US has been like a mother who doesn't want to let her kids walk by there own feet. The US has been dishing the African countries with chocolate that doesn't benefit them with anything this is the biggest course of poverty in Africa. They need to get away from the USA and the rest of the developed countries so that they can create a better African for their people. Trump please cut them all out cut the relationship so that this countries may elect a proper president without the developed countries planting their puppets. Please let them go for once

Satanic Evil Trump not a republican he stole this party like he stole the election you know that he's a convicted felon , he's a child molester with Jeffrey Epstein , the man that love grabbing women by the p---- , cult leader using religious to get these corrupted religious mega follower's to back him up and Putin's little puppet , humiliating and degrading our friend from Ukraine this list goes on with this American Traitor no more talking take our business to Europe . The America Justice system and Politicians represent the people, who make decisions have turn their backs on us and even their own people in the USA push to have Elon Musk Canadian birth right remove from our great country Canada . Elon not worthy to be even call a Canadian . Oh no we can't forget dear old JD Vance who speaks against gay right and he worn little girl clothes in high school and still today wear makeup around his eyes. And the mega Christian followers , call them leaders sent by God they better start reading their holy bible cause it all written in the holy book..

I am happy that this will increase the costs on the american people. I hope all provinces remove all USA produced alcohol from their shelves. I hope we apply levies on all energy and mineral exports to the USA. This would include potash, oil, power, nickel, uranium, lumber, etc. I have no ill will to the american people, but your president (whether you elected him or not, he is YOUR president) has started this and you, the american people, are going to end up paying more for everything in the very near future. Your president has now started the FA, and the US public is about to FO. This is NOT hurt any of your billionaires or politicians that brought this upon you. You cannot be upset at anyone than your elected officials.

Canada needs to stop living beyond its means. Get rid of un-necessary ministries, involvements in private sector that isn't mandated. A Canadian DOGE would be good too, to look line by line to get rid of waste, abuse, corruption. Stop electing the Liberals which like the US Democrats just spend the public money to buy votes like a drunken sailor.

The reason real estate prices have gone 300% but incomes only 100% is because of low interest rates. If you factor in carrying costs, the numbers aren't as extreme. The challenge now is that interest rates have increased to stave off inflation generated primarily during the covid years. While this has somewhat abated, real estate carrying costs remain elevated and price growth has stagnated, while the Canadian dollar has fallen, effectively resulting in reduced housing valuations (in US dollar terms). Can we ride this out until incomes catch up? Will productivity increases promised by leading political challengers (election coming this year) move the needle? Are tariffs and 51st state rhetoric just a negotiating tactic and bluster, or something real? Nobody knows, but we will find out..

It is pretty bad and the same Liberals that put us in this state might get re-elected. Most of my friend group have given up on owing their own home.

You are absolutely correct! The progressive left hates America and they're trying to get all of us to hate America too. These elected officials need to be jailed for endangering their constituents that they swore to protect!

If an elected official fails to comply with an executive order from the President of the United States of America they will be removed from office and possibly arrested. Fact. NYC is in the State of New York, a US State and will obey the laws of the US government. It's just that simple.

Regarding tariffs on Canada. The real target are corrupt Liberals, not us the Canadian citizens. Trudeau act like an evil teenage spoiled brat. His word salads and extravagant lavish expenses that benefits himself and his buddies NGOs have to be exposed and sentenced to jail. Trudeau is best buddy with Gavin Newsom, so, go figure right? We need an election, we will elect Conservative Poilievre for our new Prime Minister, and we need a DOGE for Canada. Cheers!

From a Canadian. I have never once voted for any do these Liberals and I'm doing everything I can to make sure they lose the next election. Sorry our politicians use us as pawns in their game.

I’m a Canadian and living in the US and it’s sad how my country has gone downhill don’t get me wrong my parents are immigrants who arrived in Canada. And since Trudeau got elected he was bright thousands oh people without background checks. Many terrorist are residing in Canada

THIS ??ian would like to let Trump know how appreciative and thankful we are for him forcing our fuhrer to lock down the border better. BUT, don't be fooled. The leading 'party' use a heavier hand than ANY mob and make tones of $$ with it wide open! The plan to destroy us from the inside out is still going on here - FULL TILT! I am so thankful it's come to a STOP for our Amerifriends. I believe electing that common sense man into office didn't just save you, but has saved MANY countries. Possibly the ? ! Now, if he could ONLY figure out how to hit J.T WITHOUT hurting us Canuks! There ARE ways! Many ways TRUST! \n<--Go MAPLE ? MAGA! \nLET'S MAKE ?? CANADIAN AGAIN! ❤

December 2024, Canadian Parliament approved a plan to secure their border with the US.\nJanuary 2024, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dismissed the Parliament and delayed the election of a new Parliament until March, giving him 3 months of carte blanche. One of his first acts was to cancel the plan to secure their border, claiming that it was too expensive.\nFebruary 2024, US President Donald Trump forced PM Trudeau to reinstate the plan by making the tariffs more expensive than it would be to secure their border.

How about we elect a president here to rule the illegal immigrants countries, it’s because they want to be lead by a American president, that’s why they come in the us illegally

If anyone thinks the Canadian Prime Sinister gives a damn about what happens at our border with the US, think again. He had lots of opportunity to solve the problem and did nothing. And if we are stupid enough to elect Mark Carney then we deserve the full wrath of President Trump.

our government in canada is as much of a joke as the last administration in the US was. thank god we have an election this year. 10 years of liberalism has made us into an international joke

As a Canadian I had no clue that many were crossing from our side, tf is the govt letting em fly in over here if the US isn't. I really hope the conservative govt fixes the zero common sense approach the liberals have destroyed our country with once we have an election an liberals thrown out on their asses

Some elected officials don't care about US citizens. Their main objective is controlling the masses by sowing chaos and keeping morale low. A healthy democracy = thinner bank accounts for the corrupt.

My wife and I canceled trip to NYC and Montreal we had planned for this summer. (1) No more US tourism dollars for Canada until Canada works to fix this problem. Why did Canada let them fly in? (2) no more tourist dollars to NY until they stop their sanctuary city policies and ubtil they elect republicans to fix their state

As a US citizen, I am sad for both Canada and the US. We were great allies, and now that is gone. I wanted to move to Nova Scotia and start a new life doing my art and be a part of a culture I love. This is why it is so important to participate in the election process! The future is uncertain, but for those who care about our countries, we need to work together to bring back democracy and bring down the cost of living. It is insane what we are experiencing now!

The US could have a better system than Canada, 10 to 15 cents per gallon of gas and diesel would cover you. However elective surgeries would be the responsibilities of the patient.

Basically, for the past four years, Biden, Harris and the Democrat Party have spent hundreds of billions of US tax dollars flying illegal immigrants in and basically leaving America’s borders in Mexico and Canada wide open to mass illegal immigration. Then they lied to the American people about the real numbers and how bad the problem really was. In the past few years, the Democrats have spent billions throughout all of our federal agencies via misappropriated US taxpayer funds that were earmarked for American citizens or American infrastructure and development, then used these misappropriated, taxpayer funds to provide housing, food, education, medical care, and in most cases, luxury hotels. Just within the past two weeks FEMA spent over $500 million to provide luxury hotels for illegal immigrants yet a few weeks ago they were still claiming that they didn’t have enough money to help American citizens who suffered catastrophic loss during recent hurricanes and wildfires. The simple fact that Democrats got more upset that Elon Musk bought Twitter than they are, that their own political party in government for the past four years, has literally been holding them at gunpoint and forcing them to pay taxes so that they could steal it or launder it into their own campaigns and pockets is literally disturbing! WTF!!!! If any of those other federal agencies are ran or funded the way U.S. AID were, with the massive corruption, misappropriation, fraud and theft of taxpayer funds, then I hope DODGE goes through an completely audits, every single federal agency in the United States. No wonder the Democrats are freaking out the way they are, if the Republicans got caught this bad with their hand in the taxpayer cookie jar, then you know the Democrats would be screaming a different tune. The Democrats are trying to manipulate taxpayers into believing utter nonsense like their phrase “ no one voted for Elon Musk. “ but in reality no citizen ever votes for the hundreds of the civilian presidential appointed positions to run these federal agencies, every new president pics/appoints to these positions every term. It definitely explains why hard-working tax paying men and women are getting completely ripped off and robbed every time they look at their paycheck and see how extremely and unnecessarily high taxes are now. The Democratic Party has completely destroyed its reputation with the American taxpayer, they got completely exposed for their corrupt, anti-American, extremist, radical,and woke liberal agenda. They were absolutely using tens of millions of US taxpayer funds to finance terrorist organizations like the Taliban and Isis, billions of US taxpayer funds, pushing their racist and sexist woke liberal DEI agenda across the globe, they were absolutely bribing corporate news media to control the narrative and manipulate the American people to influence elections via corporate news media subscription payments to very left, leaning news organizations, such as politico and others, that were clearly and obviously bribes to the media, just one of the NGO of many organizations under U.S. AID paid $75,000 of taxpayer money a year for a Digital subscription to politico’s corporate news outlet , that any one could sign up for $10 a year like any other news outlets digital subscription. The list of fraud, corruption, and very obvious US taxpayer funds theft, just goes on and on and on. I think the worst betrayal of it all is the fact that any US tax paying citizen or to steal one single US tax dollar from the government, we would be publicly arrested, put in handcuffs, charged with a felony, and prosecuted to the absolute max, the law would allow, but these Washington elite politicians are allowed to do this without even a public slap on the wrist is the most disgusting and devious, betrayal, and loss of trust that the American taxpayer has ever known.???????????????????????????????????????????
