Why do you say it's broken? It's just the way the liberals want it on purpose. The very same reason why the democrats in the states are doing, and defending it at all costs. Votes, and gerrymandering.

Im Canadian, I cant think of a reason I would be in the states for more then 30 days, but if so, I have no problem with this as we should be doing this in Canada as well. Too many criminals!

All the more reason not to go. When trumps gone we’ll be back.

Another reason to stay out of Magastan. F the USA and F Trump.

The officer should have remained calm if the couple has made some mistake or dont have a document. He would have valid reason for not giving the visa if asked why he did not give. Instead he got angry and behaved unprofessionally.

F Trudeau, he's ruined this country for the last 9yrs. He's the reason we can't survive the tariffs because he taxes the canadian citizens far more than any other country.

The reason Canadians elected a part-time drama teacher with no political acumen as their prime minister displays their level of incomprehension. And now this part time drama teacher is challenging the USA. Yet again another way of diverting attention away from all of the money he has taken from the Canadian people. But he wants to look nice in front of his globalist masters

Closet friend my arse. There's a reason for the tariffs little boy.

Dear Canadians: I'm sure Europe will be glad to trade with you. The list of sane, reasonable, democratic partners is growing short, sadly.

The excuses for implementing the tariffs by trump were just as absurd as putin’s excuse for invading Ukraine.\nHonestly I wouldn’t have even bothered to implement the border policy because in trump’s la la land. It wouldn’t matter how much Canada did. \nOnce he’s fabricated a reason for anything. It becomes a truth in his head.\ntrump’s a communist sympathiser ?. Figure that one out?\nNext he’ll be sending arms to russia.

mr. trudeau and im being polite your the reason for this mess, for being a complete incompetetive leader for the past 9 years and i also blame the canadian people for being so stupid because of your name reelected you twice. mr. trump had a vendetta against for you being a two face leader.

Great speech! But I think the Canadians are overreacting a bit. Reciprocate the tariffs and go on with your lives. As for Trump’s reason why, it will probably be obvious when the new tax dollars begin overflowing your accounts.

This man has been lying his whole career, and now people believe him a 12 second video? There's a reason behind his failed policies and why he is resigning.

Trudeau sucks there’s a reason for tariffs

Makes me want to apply for Canadian citizenship... would have to live there for 3 years first. Still...\nGreat speech, calm, clear, to the point, reasonable and with all the respect, maybe more than Donald Trump deserves.?

Who starts a conflict with Canada? Everyone loves canada! Like there is no reason for this at all, just like Trudeau mentioned.\nUS is a joke, I hope everyone gets together to hurt them enough so that they stop as soon as possible. I feel with the americans that didnt vote for this

This is not going to end well. \n\nThe former NATO Supreme Commander tells it like it will be.\n\nThe USA has already lost massively as Trump does not understand the sound and mostly reasonable US imperial Security Strategy, and i say this as a non US citizen.\n\nI still do not hate the American people, but Trump has given every anti America voice exactly what they needed, big incidents painting to paint them as most evil.\nTrump got played so hard by Putin it is not funny anymore, Putin is the bear and Trump the screaming goose, free meal for the bear.

K, so you’re gonna stop the carbon tax now then, right?????? \nlol\nI didn’t think so. This guy is so full of it. He is the reason why we are suffering as a country. Not Donald Trump. Donald is just looking out for his own country. It’ll help them, it’ll hurt us because you’re gonna let it hurt us. We are already taxed in every humanly way possible. What’s next? I’m sure you’ll think of something to tax. \nThis man has ruined what’s left of Canada. Don’t fall for this rhetoric little speech people. \nOpen your minds and eyes!

Another reason why Capitalism is a ONE BIG SCAM that only favors the rich....

From Germany: 100% support for Canada and for the rest of the free, reasonable world!

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.

Forever tarnishing the good name of the USA, Trump is a Traitor, History will show him to have commited Treason.\nThe rest of the world sees' Trump as Putin's little bitch.\nChina is laughing, next he will be handing Xi Jinping Taiwan.\nTrump will be remembered for all the wrong reasons', and American's will wonder how they let him sell them out.

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!!!

I guess it's politics Mr. Trudeau.\n\nA PM who protects and harbours Khalistani Terrorists for political reasons is surprised Trump is making policies for his political reasons ... \n\nTrudeau has reduced Canada to the impoverished 51st state of the US ??.

Trump is a Russian asset and his sole goal(or the goals of his puppet masters) is to destabilize his country and the whole Western world. A couple of months ago I would call this a silly fable but right now i cannot see any other reasonable explanation. He cannot possibly be this stupid.

while trudea claims to care about the drug smuggling to americans who does trudeau think these tarriffs will affect the hardest\nthe drug addicted poor of course\nthey will suffer the most\nso trump and trudeau are combining efforts to cause more grevious harm to people with problems in this case drug problems\nits american cia that supplies these drugs to americans along with the dea and local police forces\nthe supplier of drugs can not also be expected to stop the flow of drugs to americans this is the real reason america is so devestated by illegal drugs\namerica is truly at war with america\nnow trump is in direct war against the american poor\nto increase their pain\nits a christian sadistic its sadism christian style\nthey call it tough love\nthats idiocracy\nits full blown sadism

Why is the office called 'fentanyl Tzar'? \nThis feels absurd.\n\nTzar, being the slavic interpretation of the religious office of the head of the eastern orthodox Christian church, headed by, for political reasons, the byzantine emperor. \nThe byzantines being the sucessor of the Roman empire, of which the emperor was unofficially referred to as the sucessor of Caesar, who was not the first or last Dictator of Rome.\n\nWhy does Canada have a Tzar of anything?

Dear Americans! We love you! Please come out to the street and protest against “Dictator and Bully Donald Trump”. He will be the reason for the THIRD WORLD WAR!

Trudeau isn't what Rogan says he is. I'm a Canadian with morals and empathy. I was formerly a centrist, possibly right leaning. That has all changed now. \n\nWe have the same far right agenda working to assault Canadian values up north. Americans are being subjected to a fairytale 'mandate' that was swindled with lies and deceit, Trumps 2 favorite tacts.\n\nI'm 40 now. Pretty brushed up on history. I can't fathom why any reasonable person thinks podcasters or real estate agents can govern. \n\nIn the past, swineherds could become Generals, yes. BUT There has to be levels of experience in Governance to handle the responsibility of having lives in ones hand. \n\nDemocracy is the only way, lets not go backwards. FUCK TRUMP, FUCK ELON.

We, reasonable Americans, support you - our friends and neighbors! Bravo! Trump needs to stop his recklessness and STUPIDITY!

I think Trump is looking for a reason to declare martial law, and is trying to create an uprising in the US, so he can gain sweeping powers to take over the government. It would suppress protests, eliminate regulations, and privatize government functions.

I am a combat veteran from afghanistan and iraq. \nWe fought alongside Canada in Afghanistan. They are our ally and our neighbors. \nThis is So0o0o Dumb.\nWhat has happened to our world.\nAdolf trumpler is at the controls.\nWhen reasonable people across the world are dumbfounded by Dumpie the knuckle, dragging mouth breathing Dumpster Fire.\nSorry, but you're wasting your time If you think you can reach Tre45on while he Eating his Big Macs and strokes putin under the table

I’m Thai and I want to move to Canada. Canadians seem like the politest and most reasonable people in the world.

What was Trump's reason for the tariff?

From the middle east : the US launched a war against Iraq for absolutely no reason at all (except to steal its oil) and it proceeded to lie and conjure up fantasy after fantasy of wmds. Now, the US has turned on its allies, since it sucked the literal life out of us. Good. Let's see how the US is going to start calling Canadians terrorists in a few years. I'll get my popcorn.

No more buying US. No visits/ holiday's. No stocks. Cant help but feel this is what trump and musk want, i.e. to have stockmarket get weaker so they can buy more. \nLook over there...(aligning with Putin dictator, Bullying zelensky, illegal firing staff, tariffs, accusing zelensky of propaganda as US fox news is known for it) whilst they shake markets up, risking world war 3 for multiple reasons. With the Supreme court in his pocket, the US is following Putins lead and becoming a dictatorship. The law is far to pliable there at this point. \nAll those voted Trump in and think he is making America great, you are DILLUSIONAL!\nHe will take you and your families down.. the young get sent to war, the old asshole sociopathic men sit by the fire protected. It took a very long time for Germany to escape the reputation after Hitler. You want the rest of the world to disdain and never trust your country and people?! Germany recovered, but it was painful healing. \nHow bout Trump sleeps out on the streets, deals with fentanyl addicted unsupported US citizens and veterans or get sent to war? Or what about his children or grandchildren?! Would he care if they were called to stand for the country if WW3 broke out, because of him? Trump truly is making a statement... he gives 2Fs about the people, totally self serving. For the capitalist bullies who love money at any cost..even blood money... non of your investments will make a difference if you have no heating, water, food, jobs, lost family members through war and crap health system... not an ounce of love, respect, compassion, respect, leadership in the US government. The World can be better. Choose better... for all that is sacred... stop the madness!!\n\nWell done Canada & Trudeau... love and support you beautiful people. ❤\nLove and Strength to the people of Ukraine around the globe. I pray for this nightmare to end in your favour. For your loved ones to be safe and protected and that you can be reunited once more. Love and praise for Zelensky...you are a phenomenal leader. May you receive the support needed to end the war.❤\nHang tight US citizens who wish a very different US .❤

I'm Russian in America and wish i was anywhere but here. My mom brought me here in 1993 for reasons against what was going on in Russia at the time and now, the same stuff that she was getting me away from there is happening here. ??

Justin is the reason Canada economy went down , yet he goes on media and throw false information

Yo Canada. Europe would like to have an ally like you and we would love to buy gas and oil from a democratic country with a reasonable grown up leader. Interested? ❤

You won’t get through to the MAGA people who voted for Trump. They will go to bed and recite the need to stop illegal immigration, gays, abortion, gun-control or whatever single issue they are voting for and pretend again Trump hasn’t given the world enough reason to have voted against him 4 years ago

Not sure whats more disgusting, Trumps delusions or the recent praise for Turdeau due to some basic teleprompt speeches.... Make no mistake viewers, Justin Turdeau is an incompetent hypocrite who's policy's and leadership constantly embarrassed Canada on the world stage and nearly drove the countries lifestyle into the ground. There's a GOOD reason why he became the most hated man in Canada and was forced to resign over Christmas!

If I could afford to move from the US to Canada I would move. I am so sick of Trump’s destructive behavior. He’s a very insecure and unhappy person and the only way he can deal with it is by making others miserable. He doesn’t need reasons for implementing new tariffs. He does these things to demonstrate his power, because he’s a class A bully. Canadians, stay strong. We’ll see you this summer when we =action in BC. Your country is clean, safe and the people are so nice.

I hope the rest of the world watching this takes note on how the US will readily harm its longest term friend and biggest ally! This is your chance to stop buying American and buying local. Encourage others to do the same. If possible, help out the innocent countries the US is trying to destroy for no reason besides being a bully. Buy their products or visit them on holiday.

As much as I like the message, I just find this is a waste of time to rationalize or reasoning with the orange clown and his uneducated base, like the clown said himself that he loves his uneducated supporters. Just return the favour. That's it. You can't fix stupid. Canada just needs to find more reliable and trust worthy partners. As much as I hate to say, US government can't be trusted. \n\nHey donald, little petty man with small hands. Glad that your trump towers in Toronto and Vancouver failed. You now try to avenge but you are making dumb mistakes to let personal touchy feelings to interfere with country affairs.

America is not putting tariffs upon you... Just the idiot new dictator trump. All your words are reasonable and sane and correct. We do not even understand how or why he has decided the victim Zelensky is somehow at fault, while putin who the entire world hates, who is actively destroying his own country... Is somehow trumps boyfriend. ::Stares empty:: America has zero idea why. Well said Justin Trudeau.

Trump and Maga are like any crazy regime, absolutely full of magical thinking and not based in reality. So 2+2 = 6 and if you don’t agree, you hate America. Average Americans are expected to believe that a bunch of billionaires and companies that have been robbing them blind for 40 years will now have their backs because they are actually in government instead of just pulling the strings from the sides. Or because they trigger the right people on the Internet. . I also hate how every leader in the world has to pay some kind of false reverence to Trump even though they all know he’s nuts out of some kind of decorum. Just want somebody with balls to get up and say fuck him and fuck his lunacy. And shove your decorum up your arse because Trump doesn’t have any. It’s about time you realise what you’re dealing with and pull the gloves off. Playing nice and nice and reasonable is only playing into his hands.

Imagine a country's leader speaking articulately and coherently with actual facts and reason in their THIRD language.

President Trump is wise and reasonable enough not to engage a direct confrontation with China and Russia which will plunge the world into more bloodshed and caos....

Canadians are not being Reasonable! Canadians lost their free speech. PISS OFF TRUDORK!

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
