Of course it's CNN. Trudeau, you do not represent Canadians. You have destroyed Canada and only now because of Trump you are dealing with the horrid fentanyl problem that is killing our communities. You have not fixed our health care system nor our political system. YOU NEED TO JUST GO, STOP YOUR EGO DRIVEN LAST GASP AT LEADERSHIP. You prorogued our own government, basically shut down debate and decision making in Canada while you parade yourself around the global world. NOW YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT CANADA FIRST, when a short two months ago you were pushing Canada for the past 9 years as a post national state. You are posturing and have no credibility in Canada or globally. YOU DID NOT WORK WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU CAME UP WITH NO PLAN BASED ON WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE U.S. YOU JUST WANT TO PREEN AND SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA AND SKIRT AROUND RESPECTFUL NEGOTIATIONS WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP BECAUSE YOU ARE MANIPULATING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. Just take that walk Trudeau and be gone, you have 3 more days and then we do not want to see you again.

Ah yes the drama teacher turned corrupt liberal dictator who has RUINED CANADA over the last 9 years!! He makes me sick! He doesn't give 2 ? ? about groceries and gas prices for us. He spent $81,000 of Canadian tax dollars on his own grocery bill this year - yeah! That's $1557 a week or $257 a day stuffing his face. That doesn't even include his dining out. He's a liar and needs to disappear like he said he would ?

As a Canadian we need to start buying Canada made or stuff made in Mexico or other countries besides America because everything is going to skyrocket that comes in from America

We dont trust you shitbag, Canada already ousted you! The only thing this will do to anerica is make a bunch more american made millionaires. We will replace your Canadian bullshit with American made real shit. By Canada, u need us, we dont need you!

Canadians are frustrated and are choosing to stop buying U.S. products, but Trudeau escalating tensions into a trade war with a partner is just escalating the issue. Plus Canada cannot win this battle. \n\nLeadership change - Trudeau needs to go. Every time Trudeau opens and closes the door he creates a mess. \n\n(Note: open discussions on current events is essential, its too bad the Canadian shut down our rights to speak on media platforms)

I love Canada and I love all of the Canadian people as an American I feel really bad for you guys because you’re going through what we went through in the Biden administration. It’s gonna get worse until it gets better but it’s up to all of you Canadians to vote the right way next time you need a real man who has power And can deal with your country and puts it first and the citizens first this guy showed up in a Barbie premiere movie wearing the pink outfit that says enough. Trump knows that he needs to go it almost seems like he’s gonna get rid of all the weak leaders so we can have a power for world and bring world Peace. Pray for you guys it will get better but you need to vote him out?

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!

Trudeau is the worst thing to ever happen to Canada. (well, that is until Carney gets in). The liberal/ndp coalition are pathetically weak. They are under the thumb of the globalist fascists of the wef/who. Not just horrible politicians but horrible human beings. We need them out so we can have an actual government that cares about Canadians and Canada and wont' sell us out to foreign billionaires of the WEF/WHO.

We Canadians are suckers if we're giving billions more to Ukraine. Trudeau needs to go now. As for the tariff, I think we need to strike back hard, and continue the boycott of US goods. If we could, would be great do cut off all energy going to the States, but thanks to Trudeau, we don't have cross country pipelines to do that. BTW, Canada is not responsible for what comes into your country, we're responsible to keep things out we don't want in. That's the way these things are supposed to work, we're not East Berlin.

Proud to be Canadian and happy that Trudeau has finally said that this was not about fentanyl and border security. This is about applying economic pressure to annex Canada. Trump needed a reason to declare an emergency so that he could break the USMCA agreement.❤??

Nobody in Canada cares what Justin has to say, he quit a while ago and needs to leave. Im Canadian and he does not represent me nor the majority of Canadians.

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.”

Indians have used Canada like a flop house. Indians go to diploma mills and try to use it as a backdoor to stay in Canada. They take over Canadian communities and try to turn them into India - making the locals feel like foreigners in their own home. They're also involved in a lot of crime. This includes: auto theft rings, synthetic ID/credit fraud, gun and drug smuggling, and one of the largest gold heists in Canadian history at Toronto Pearson airport. Americans have stated that the top nationality entering the US illegally from Canada is Indian. The drugs they are complaining about entering the US from Canada are almost entirely brought in by Indian truck drivers (Google it and find many examples). A Fentanyl super lab in BC capable of producing over 95 million lethal doses that was busted was run by an Indian. This is now threatening trade with our main trade partner as a trade war has just started. ENOUGH ALREADY! Indians need to be sent home, and banned from entering Canada.

A thought experiment:\nImagine that the Canadian government was given a magic technology that could build five million new homes overnight and assign them by lottery to people who didn't currently own a home.\nWould the government push the button to build the homes and give them to people who needed a home?\nNope. It would not.\nWhy?\nBecause the price of existing houses and apartments in Canada would drop by at least 50% overnight. And in our new, insane, everything-is-financialized, asset-prices-are-the-most-important-thing world, that would be deemed unacceptable.\nJust chew on that for a moment: we have a society, an economy, a governing and property owning class, that would prefer to forego the incredible quality of life increases for the population of magicking 5 million homes into existence, than to lose the valuations of a resource that is so scarce that demand grossly outstrips supply.\nWe live in a world of utter madness.

As a Canadian who has lived my whole life here, in my opinion there were two major factors that need to be highlighted that started this mess: fiscal policy and focus on fringe politics. First, Canada came out of the 2008 meltdown relatively unscathed due to following a markedly different strategic path than other major countries, namely tight banking regulations as well as 15 years of paying down the national debt. However, several years after 2008, sentiment shifted to adopting the same MMT-led fiscal policies as other nations: lower interest rates and deficit spending. Secondly, at least 10 years ago, there was a major political shift to start emphasizing fringe social issues (climate, race-based, gender, etc.) instead of standard issues such as the economy or military to name two, and it was strongly evident in academia and in the media. The result was little governmental, public or media attention being paid to core economic concerns such as the massive growing government and consumer debt levels, highly inflationary housing market, or decreasing productivity. When COVID hit, the government further doubled the existing federal debt and when they found that unsustainable, opened the doors to massive immigration levels to bring the Debt-per-Capita ratio down which while helping in that one metric, has further inflated the housing market all while forcing wages down. We now have unsustainable public debt levels, unaffordable housing, decreasing wages, decreasing productivity, and a troubling reactionary political swing towards extremist right-wing ideologies. Top that off with the US administration seeing Canada is on an economic precipice and threatening to take the country over, there couldn't be a more perfect storm.

FEEDBACK: I've operated various businesses in Canada and all I can say is, 'never again'. The BUREAUCRACY grows in strength every year, issuing more & more regulations, stifling everything. For every new rule a bureaucrat introduces, an old rule should be retired.\n\nHOUSING: It's the Liberal Government policy to pander to immigrant voters that has put us down the wrong path. I'm amazed that so few people in, say, Vancouver who complain about the astronomical cost of rent and mortgages realize that their problem is directly caused by our WEAK policy of permitting new immigrants to move to Vancouver & Toronto , instead of the 1,000 other towns where they're desperately needed. How stupid are we, to not even understand the policy issue? \n\nMeanwhile, I actually lost my apartment block in Winnipeg because the market value dropped below the mortgage balance and the bureaucracy was killing me with their conflicting rulings. So, why did my block drop in market value? Because people were leaving Winnipeg, and Manitoba. EVERYONE went to Vancouver or Toronto. Thanks for nothing, stupid politicians.. the opposition isn't doing their job when Canadians don't know anything about this.

If Canada uses it's wisdom to choose a leader with an aptitude for economics, and behaves with the collectivistic humility we are known for, perhaps we will weather this storm and come out stronger on the other side. When making decisions from fear or anger, Canadians become individualistic and do our entire nation a major disservice by destroying any chance of using this crisis to propel our way out of the pit we are currently in. We need to avoid pointing fingers because for decades cowardly and self-serving decision-making have led us here. Never forget that the new immigrant delivering your food isn't your enemy - the con artist/felon trying to steal our resources and autonomy is.

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.

Thank you so much Canadian government dear honorable seir I'm Rohingya Refuge location in Bangladesh with my small family of 4 please I need a sponsor to resetle Canada plz help me

I am Canadian, and to visit India I need a letter of invite from a person or company from India, go the the Indian embassy , and get a visa. why do they think they can waltz into the USA or Canada willy nilly?

Canada needs more strict visa requirements. The. Fact you can just come on visitor visa or study visa and stay most international students don’t even show up for school. Canada needs to stop giving out visas like it’s Halloween Candy. 500,000 international students went missing they came into Canada were supposed to go back after there end date and went missing . The system is broken . Many get a visa to study or get a tourist visa and DONT LEAVE. They are mostly staying with relatives that are Canadian. And they work in cash . This is what’s really happening. Many bring falls work experience and fake work papers from back home

While I agree as we have the same problems with illegal Venezuelans. I am sure they are legal permanent residents. They are hard working people who are building Canada. Canada needed the skill sets and they took advantage of this. From the video -Who are the drug addicts? Who don't have housing? Canadians didn't want to study nor work and are paying the price.

Cause a Canadian government sucks and will not do anything about this. We need Trump or somebody like him running in Canada.

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!

Really?? Over 95%of the illegal guns confiscated in the Greater Toronto Area were smuggled in from the USA. Who needs protection from who? You're killing us up here. Please do some real reporting and interview the municipal authorities in Canadian cities. And then control the easily acquired firearms that end up in Canada . You're just entertainment, that's all! Lol get a life

Roxam rd is a way the immigrants use to cross to New York from Quebec Canada. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) protect that crossing and had journalists arrested for reporting on it. Canada has always backed the U.S. but a tyrannical government is collapsing our country just like the UK and Australia. WE NEED YOUR HELP. Stop trying to punish Canadians and HELP US get rid of this insane progressive liberal government that is choking the life out of Canadians. If not… Canada will become ChinIndia by the end of 2025 and will be fully controlled by tyrannical communism , and globalists.

It’s not Canada job to check on people going from it territory to the us, if you leave the us to Canada, it’s the responsibility of the Canadian borders patrol to know who they are ect..During the 60’s, Fidel Castro Ruz said to the Canadians: what they’re doing to us, they are doing to you to. Did the Canadians understood, like my infant daughter had habit to : I nen know. Today, in Quebec, Ontario, the factoriy buildings are still up but inside completely empty. After the implode of the Soviet Union as the only rooster on the block, they asked most of the countries around the world to shut down theirs raffineries, in Alberta Canada there is one in Balzac, nobody today knows it existence. The us produce light crude and theirs raffineries are built for heavy one, the reason they need oil from the outside and they pay very cheap for it, like Canada got 7 dollars/ barrel, not too long ago, today, I think it’s $ 16.00. To extract the oil from the sand, that cost a lot of money and the pollution level dios mios. They care, good luck. In Africa, with theirs vassals, they organize coups after coup, according to voster, i think, an Africa with the Africans is earth paradise, now they started to ask them to leave, they don’t need them. The canadian company barrick of Toronto just paid something around $480 billions, the ceo had a warrant arrest after his a… the australian one of resolute was in jail and paid what they owed, all of them are a bunch of thieves. They better be careful with the chineses but they are still long time better than any country the collective West. Like I said it, since the beginning of the 2000, the us and the remaining of the g7 will be at each other throat, GOOD.?

Canadian here. If this is true, we need to stop it, and if we could do anything about the drugs and guns coming north into canada, thatd be great. Cheers folks.

1. They are not migrants; they are illegal invaders. 2. They cannot enter NYC from Canada which is 335 miles from the Canadian border. They can enter New York State and head to sanctuary cities from there to claim their free ride. 3. Canada needs to stop these illegals from entering our country as well.

So why is it up to Canada to secure their borders? It’s a USA problem not a Canadian or Mexico problem. The USA needs to secure their borders better if they don’t want illegal immigration. I’m an USian n I don’t think we should be putting the blame on others borders more so our own.

CANADA NEEDS TO SMARTIN UP AND GET THEIR BORDER UNDER CONTROL. THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT LOVES THAT THERE IS ZERO BORDER CONTROL. \nOR..\nBE ANNEXED. MOST CANADIANS WOULD LOVE TO BE A US CITIZEN!!

I am Canadian and I completely understand why Trump is threatening Canada with 25% tarrifs. Canada needs to do its part too! This illegal immigration has to stop!

This is nothing new in the 90's every Dominican being stopped in Washington Heights, NYC had a Canadian Driver's License. There was no passport needed then to enter from Canada if you had a Canadian License.

Just like you have to protect your southern boarder the USA needs to have accountability at the northern border. So what’s with the double standard. It’s not all on Canada. As a Canadian I’m glad that we are doing something about this. But as the southern border was closed we have a lot more people coming to Canada illegally trying to get to the states or staying here. We have to do more, of course we do.

As soon as America finishes the Mexico border fence, we should start building the Canada border fence. We need to keep those crazy liberal French Canadians up there. Lol

Cash don't put all Canadians with our Prime minister. We come from two world and he is part of the WEF . He wanted Canada to increase Canada from 35k to 100k . Both countries need border security at the same levels or in zigzag levels

CBC in Canada makes $1.8billion per yr paid for by Canadian Gov, using taxpayer money, and $500k in ad revenue, and now the Gov is going to give CBC another $1billion in taxpayer $ per yr. WHAT network needs $2.5 BILLION in taxpayer $ per yr, purely to promote Government propaganda!?\nWelcome to the lies of Canadian Gov and the loss of free speech in Canada

The core problem is not migrants crossing the Canadian border into the US illegally... It's the number of migrants being imported into Canada by its pink-socked tyrant and his Progressive cohorts.\n\nThe simple fact is that Canada is in desperate need of a mass deportation process that would make anything President Trump is planning pale in comparison. This would solve their rising crime, soaring unemployment, unbelievable housing shortage, and much, much more... INCLUDING the migrant spillover from Canada into the US.\n\nJust sayin'.

We have our own housing shortage that needs to be addressed for existing Canadians who are struggling. I'm glad we are taking a pause and redifining the structure of how and who we receive into Canada. Until we sort out the housing crisis, which is in every major city, there simply aren't enough homes to help those in need and address newcomers who aren't financially self sufficient. If those immigrating to another country, they should provide their new country with their own financial means of support, or be of a profession that is in demand, the sooner they get jobs and pay into the system, the better.

President Trump needs to try to get a hold of control of Canada, AND if he can, GET CANADA TO BECOME THE USA's BELOVED 51st STATE, because Justine Trudeau is NOT PROTECTING CANADA, NOR IS JUSTINE TRUDEAU , AND ALL OF HIS LITTLE ATHEISTIC COMMUNIST FRIENDS, BEING VERY NICE TO CANADA'S NEAREST AND DEAREST NEIGHBOR, THE USA. I HOPE THAT PIERRE POLIEVIER IS ABLE TO TURN CANADA AROUND, BUT THIS WILL BE TOUGH, A VERY , VERY TOUGH JOB FOR POLIEVIER, OR ANYONE ELSE IN CANADA, TO TURN THINGS AROUND, WITH ALL OF THE CRAZY ATHEISTIC GODLESS COMMUNIST LIBERALS, WHO HAVE CORRUPTED CANADA, AND CONTINUE RUNNING AROUND CANADA, DESTROYING EVERYTHING FOR THE CANADIAN CITIZENS.

As a Canadian, I care more about who is getting into Canada than who is getting into the US. I want to know from my government how are these people getting into Canada in the first place?? Canada needs to fix how people are getting into our country first. Then this will naturally help keep these folks from using the land border to gain access to the US.

Canadians pissed at TRUMP , but turns out he’s right Canada need to get its shit together

The Canadian government needs to fix the root cause of the problem and find a long-term solution. Why does the Canadian immigration department fail in the first place? Why are immigrants allowed to enter Canada without a background check?

Dude, you think the northern border is bad? Imagine having to live in canada where they are actually paid with our taxes to come here. Zero screening. And our justice system is only concerned with beating real canadians down for speaking up against it. \n\nWe need Trump to do more than create a pressure cooker keeping the trash in canada. We need emancipation.

Sorry to our brothers and sisters to the south of us our insane gov't rather brings in the world give them all the money they need while Canadians go hungry and pay for all this. Then they go to the states to warmer climate while still getting free money and renting out their free apt to someone else and work down in your country for more money and nicer weather while our seniors in Canada go to food banks

Ummm.....I am Canadian and I find it funny that nobody in the US talks about the flow of drugs and GUNS coming FROM the States into Canada??? I really liked your videos until this one. You are part of the problem of people sharing misinformation. The immigration thing yes!!! We need to close our borders and I think EVERY Canadian will agree with that. Please don't join in and make videos encouraging the hate towards Canada. Not cool at all. The States can't blame everyone else for their issues.????????????

What a crock of crap! The USA has the problem of weak borders, so they need to step up their border patrol. Canada is securing their borders because of the frequent and much more abundant cases of drugs and guns being smuggled into Canada! The stepped up Canadian border enforcement was already well underway months before Trump made his tariff threats. \nThink about it, the 43lbs of fentanyl that was smuggled in from Canada, at the US border, is a drop in the bucket in comparison to the flow of it that comes in through the ports. Also think about when you cross a border, it’s the country you are crossing into that checks you out. Classic case of Trump blaming others for US failure.

Totally neglected to mention the significant rise in unauthorized crossings from the U.S. into Canada. You need to increase your border security as much as we do hypocrites.\n\nIn February 2025, Canadian authorities intercepted groups of migrants attempting to cross the border from the U.S. in hazardous winter conditions near Alberta and Manitoba.

tyler i don't think u realize how bad the usa education system really is. i'm canadian but have lost count of the number of usa teachers who have complained about how bad they are held back from teaching kids properly, how kids can't be failed or held back, how kids graduating gr 12 can't read or write past gr 6 level. in fact recently there was a statistic put out that something like 60% of ALL americans cant read or write past gr 6. considering all your universities that is terrifying. not to mention with gun violence, straight up violence among kids and at teachers, the disrespect and the severe lack of good parenting, kids are not being educated at all. u yourself have done videos on where someone interviews americans and asked them questions about canada and they haven't got a clue. not one clue. yet canadian kids are regularly taught all about their american neighbours. are kids know more about america then american kids do and thats shameful. u need to do some research on this because unless u live in a rich gated elite community and go to private school the public education system in the usa is very dismal and woefully inadequate. \nalso he's right about politics. here we can discuss it rationally and then move on to other topics. in the states ppl are shooting ppl over differences in politics. beating ppl up trashing their cars and property etc. and many police are definitely not presenting themselves with professionalism tons of racism going on. and so many police because everyone is armed. here in canada we are not allowed handguns and pretty much ppl only have hunting rifles. it takes a lot of work and clearance not to mention time and money to take the necessary classes and get the necessary permits to even own a hunting rifle. in the usa show a drivers license and wait 10 days u have a handgun no matter how mental u are. therefore u need way more police than here in canada. i think u have a well to do upbringing so u have not and do not see the true picture of the america u live in. \nalso i have talked to many american friends who had insurance and still cost them about $5000 per birth of a child. with good insurance and working full time. so thats about average. here in canada u pay nothing except maybe parking for hubby while he visits.

When I go to the hospital in Canada I don't have to wait if people think that then they're wrong and then I get treated and don't pay a thing so I hope Americans understand that they pay thousands of dollars for healthcare that most Canadians can walk in and get for free,, yes it comes off our taxes but everybody in the country taste those taxes even if they don't use Healthcare so it helps people that are really in need
