We have a 600 billion deficit to these countries in trade, and you said liberals are okay with this. You all have some serious issues.

All yall crying about tariffs. Stop acting like it’ll last for the 4 years. This is to prove a point and make them foolish countries reactive and take action towards the problems they have been neglecting. Drugs coming into America, illegal migrants into America, and no show of force towards that. And more. They need to step it up
Discusses tariffs and economic strategy while framing border/drug issues as justification for enforcement measures.

It’s nothing personal against Canada, Trump wants US owned companies back that’s all.

Even true claimants should not receive monthly income and benefits better than those of the regular working class in Canada. They should feel compelled to find jobs instead of living as parasites off the taxpayers.

Thanks Liberals for pushing us so far down the hole it's going to take a miracle to get us back on top.
Remember the size of family our great grandparents, grandparents had ~ like 7 to 10 kids, I'm 60 and had 4 siblings. The size of families just keeps getting smaller ~ too expensive for everything for adults and even more so for the cost of a child.
95% of us don't have that silver spoon in our mouths at birth......
Blames government policy for economic hardship and rising costs of living that prevent family formation.

Westerners, aren't having children, because we can't afford to.
The more immigrants that enter, makes it even more unaffordable for westerners it is to have.
On top of that, the constant demonization of (predominantly) white people to hate the past, feminism, and queer theory being pushed, definitely doesn't help.
I can't even go to a foodbank for a few basics, without a 3 hour wait from all the recent immigrants that don't speak English, and push their way thru lines
Links immigration to housing affordability and economic hardship for 'westerners,' combining economic grievance with demographic anxiety and identity concerns.

Thanks for this, you are saying what I feel I'm not racist, I'm just fed up, these people, mostly Indian, come here and take all the jobs, barely speak English, are rude and don't care, I'm tired of going to a fast food chain and my order is screwed up so bad, no please or thanks they look at me like I'm an asshole cause I'm white they don't know me, they assume I'm a white male, I'm automatically an asshole,
Primarily focuses on job competition and economic grievances (taking jobs, wages), though also includes identity-based complaints and cultural anxiety.
