Pierre Poilievre’s Immigration Hypocrisy: A Study in Convenient Principles Disguised as Conviction Pierre Poilievre has never met a border he did not want to fortify, a refugee claim he did not want to scrutinize, or an irregular crossing he did not want to turn into a national morality play. For years, he has warned Canadians that the country is being overrun by “illegal border crossers,” “queue jumping asylum seekers,” and “abusers of the system.” He delivers these warnings with the solemnity of a man announcing a biblical plague, not a handful of exhausted families walking across a ditch in Quebec. In Poilievre’s political universe, Roxham Road is not a rural footpath. It is a symbol of national decline. It is chaos incarnate. It is the place where the rule of law goes to die. It is, in short, the perfect stage upon which he can perform his favorite role: the lone defender of order in a world gone soft. At least, that is the story he tells the public. The private story, as publicly reported, is considerably less heroic. The Public Record That Refuses to Behave: According to reporting from The Breach and the National Observer, someone described as the uncle of Poilievre’s spouse has an immigration history that reads like a greatest hits compilation of everything Poilievre claims to oppose. The reporting outlines that he entered Canada and made a refugee claim. That claim was refused. A deportation order was issued. He later re-entered Canada through Roxham Road. He then filed a humanitarian and compassionate application. Poilievre’s spouse reportedly helped prepare that application. This is not fringe gossip. This is what journalists documented through correspondence, interviews, and immigration records. In other words, the exact pathway Poilievre condemns as “abuse of the system” is the same pathway publicly reported to have been used by someone connected to him. And suddenly, the man who treats Roxham Road like a national security breach becomes quieter than a library at midnight. The slogans stop. The outrage evaporates. The border, once a sacred line, becomes a flexible suggestion. The Rhetoric: A Symphony of Outrage: Poilievre’s immigration rhetoric is a carefully orchestrated performance. He warns that irregular border crossings undermine the rule of law. He insists humanitarian and compassionate applications are loopholes. He claims the system is being gamed. He declares that Canada must “take back control.” He delivers these lines with the moral certainty of a man who believes compassion is a gateway drug. In his speeches, asylum seekers are not people. They are symbols. They are props. They are the raw material from which he fashions his political identity. He is the sheriff. They are the threat. The border is the battleground. And Canada is the damsel in distress. It is a compelling narrative. It is also a narrative that collapses the moment it becomes personally inconvenient. The Reality: A Study in Elastic Principles: When someone connected to Poilievre uses the very same system he condemns, the rules change with breathtaking speed. Irregular border crossings are no longer a crisis. They are a misunderstanding. A technicality. A regrettable but understandable choice. Humanitarian and compassionate applications are no longer loopholes. They are legitimate pathways. Necessary tools. Evidence of a compassionate system. The border is no longer a sacred line. It is a suggestion. A guideline. A flexible concept open to interpretation. It is a remarkable transformation, like watching a man insist that jaywalking is a crime against humanity until his friend does it, at which point it becomes a misunderstood act of civic expression. The Political Convenience of Shifting Standards: Poilievre’s political identity is built on the idea that he alone will restore order. He alone will enforce the rules. He alone will protect Canada from the chaos of irregular migration. But the moment the rules become inconvenient, they are no longer rules. They are preferences. They are vibes. They are whatever he needs them to be in the moment. This is not a minor contradiction. It is a fundamental collapse of the moral architecture he has built his political brand upon. If irregular crossings are a crisis, then they are a crisis for everyone. If humanitarian applications are loopholes, then they are loopholes for everyone. If the system is broken, then it is broken for everyone. But Poilievre’s version of justice is not universal. It is conditional. It is situational. It is deeply, profoundly personal. The Broader Pattern: Institutions Are Sacred Until They Are Not: This is not the first time Poilievre’s principles have proven to be more flexible than advertised. He has attacked the Supreme Court of Canada when its rulings do not align with his political needs. He has accused the justice system of being too lenient when it suits him and too harsh when it does not. He has framed himself as the defender of institutions while undermining them whenever they become inconvenient. It is a pattern. It is a habit. It is a worldview. And it reveals something essential about his politics. For Poilievre, institutions are not pillars of democracy. They are tools. They are props. They are instruments to be used when helpful and discarded when not. The Satirical Truth: A Philosophy in One Sentence: Pierre Poilievre’s immigration philosophy can now be summarized with clinical precision: Canada must crack down on irregular border crossings, except for the ones that are fine. And he will decide which ones are fine. It is a stance that bends so far backward it could qualify for a gymnastics medal. It is a stance that reveals more about political convenience than national security. It is a stance that exposes the gap between what Poilievre says and what Poilievre does. And it is a stance that makes one thing abundantly clear. Polievre's Hypocrisy

Why don't they stay in their own country where they always be proud and hard defending it? Guess why 🤭

Kenny should debate Keith Wilson on separation vs federalism. No federalist has a single good talking point. The country they attempt to defend is long gone squandered by propagandized dullard voter base primarily in Ontario/Quebec

Journalism is very important for sure, but empathy is even more important. People from 1st world countries will never understand how is it to live on a place that was colonized by the 1st world countries, can only guess about it. Thanks for sharing, I am thankful to have the opportunity to see closer whats happening, you took lots of risks, hopefully nobody will get hurt. Pray for every God you can, without faith we are only animals eating, sleeping, mating and defending ourselves, pretending to be better than someone else. Peace

I can't defend my country no more but all oliveria said was true af 🙏😭

Thank you for doing this video, Canada should be the best country in the world. Canada is arguably the best place on Earth geographically, but just like every government in the world right now, isn't handing anything appropriately or even objectively being managed in a sensible way. however, you saying "greatest country in the world" instead of "USA" every time, is probably why people think you're racist and mocking other societies. I defended your India poop video because it was clear you weren't saying that all Indians live in filth like people claimed you were. But again, referencing the US as the best or greatest is just condescending and portentous. Now I'm not your Dad, say and do whatever you want, I'm still enjoying the content. Just saying being more humble and remembering the many problems the US has and how many self-inflicted 3rd world issues it places on itself, would be wise.

Our country is being completely invaded, overrun, and ruined. Liberals have been brainwashed into thinking defending your countries values and people is racist. So we are basically getting triple f****ed, once by Indians, once by the government and then finally by our own people the liberals.

canada is getting very close to having more than half of their newborns be first-generation immigrants from india. in a couple short generations, it will be impossible for canadians to win any sort of election, vote, nomination, poll, etc etc. these people and their beliefs do not work in western society. they want to overrun the population (with religion as an excuse) so they can take control and begin dismantling western culture. soon all of canadas laws and protections will defend the invasions and open their boarders wide open. western society and it's values are in grave danger. they're going to use our system against us. its happening right in front of your eyes. time to wake up. these people aren't coming to canada and the states in search of a better life or the american dream. they do not want to assimilate and they refuse our values. they are here because they want their own country, and they're very close to having it. these people were chanting DEATH TO THE WEST, DEATH TO AMERICA the day they flew over.

Most white Canadians defend this being done to the country. The small minority have a loud voice and oppose this but nothing will ever happen, even the Conservative Party is full of jeets

My neighbour did not ask for my permission before importing millions of these unsuitable people into my country, so do not be surprised when I do not ask for my neighbour's permission to cull every last one of their parasites by any means necessary to defend my country from this invasion.

The man with the neon jacket..!!! He is like w Africas were tested Below Intelligence Level (who did?) And why they bring people with disabilities to my country knowing they won't be working for my country's well-being like a SLAVE!? 😒 The Colonial mindset still continues..There will always be people like him..💀 I am not defending Indians but without the immigration you won't survive sir! You in your Christmas pyjamas won't get any presents if they don't work for your dirty work stu*id!!

Thank You for defending my home country 🫡🇨🇦

This is irrelevant as even if the government decides to act and remove them, Which, given their ideology is highly unlikely. The courts will over-rule them and decide the illegals have more rights to stay than Canadians have rights to defend the country and deport them.

People say how tragic, but it's the politicians whom they voted to power that welcomed these evil people with open arms, defending them in parliament. They bring these people to get the work dirty work done and defend them like in a situation at this time saying people are racist Islamophobic etc and give them everything they want backed by extremist organizations and political parties given a passport and get them to vote for them🗳 These extremists hate all religions, white people, western countries except Islam and terrorism around the world 🌎 🙄 😒 😑 😴 🤣

The police, politicians, and civilians are afraid of Islam and don't want to confront it. Cowards can't defend their people and country 😤 😒 😂

i am an indian who has never left his country and it makes me sad that my countrymen are ruining other countries as well. if you can't speak english, you have no right to stay there, as simple as that, and it is strange how Canada is ruined by Punjabis, sikh terrorists in particular, as you can see all these are Punjabi sikh families, yet the hate is given to Indians and specifically to Hindus. I am not defending HINDUS here; there have been incidents where HINDUS have done things worthy of backlash, and they should be deported as well for their absolute religious stupidity, but why target only a specific religion and not the one that has done much worse, like literally being involved in criminal activities and notorious for it not only in Canada but in India as well? Exploited every policy and turned a Canadian city into its own home state city, and then felt proud of it in Indian podcasts: "yeah, Brampton feels like Punjab only."🤡 says a glorified ignorant Punjabi singer.

This statement unfairly targets Indian immigrants and spreads harmful stereotypes. Indian Canadians contribute greatly to this country — in medicine, technology, education, and business. Canada’s strength comes from diversity and inclusion, not exclusion. Integration doesn’t mean erasing one’s culture; it means sharing values of respect, hard work, and community. Indians in Canada are law-abiding citizens who enrich Canadian society, not weaken it. Racism and division go against the Canadian values this article claims to defend.

All these people praying to false idols in the hundreds in India alone, when there is only One True Living God in Jesus Christ. Then look at all of the people in Asia and all around the world worshiping the antichrist in the Islamic faith, doing voodoo and black magics in Africa, Jamaica, Haiti, Mexico, Columbia and the list goes on, all serving Satan praying to false gods. The concept of "one way to God through Jesus" stems from the biblical declaration in John 14:6 where Jesus says, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me". This Christian belief holds that Jesus's unique role as God's Son, his perfect life, and his sacrificial death for humanity's sins make him the sole mediator and the only path to reconciliation and salvation with God. Yes, praying to false idols is considered a grave sin, as it is a form of idolatry that violates the fundamental principle of worshipping only the one true God. Idolatry is defined as the worship of something other than God, including physical idols, created beings, or even earthly things, and is seen as a profound sin because it steals glory due to God and prioritizes something powerless over the all-powerful true God. To pray to false idols from different Nations was and still is a trick, lie and manipulation of the devil to ensure that you all burn for all eternity in Hell with Satan, when Jesus returns. This is not meant as an insult to people from other cultures but a word of Gods truth being shared so you too can be delivered from the evil in todays word when Jesus does return and He is coming. Not everyone is guilty of evil works of the devil but we are all guilty of sin in every nation and every culture. God gifted us with the death of Christ so we can be delivered form sin in todays world and saved from eternal damnation. No other offer is made to man except those who believe in Christ. Why do you think that they want to destroy Christianity and all who choose God in Christ. Satan knows his time is up and he wants you and your generations to suffer eternal damnation with him. Government employees doing acts of terror against Christian places of worship. This is who our Corrupt Governments hire, not to protect and serve the people but do literal acts of terror against them. https://youtu.be/uCLkFrPdhXw Just look at our government run businesses in the LCBO https://youtu.be/THQWvc3_jcc ,which appears to have a very high number of East Indian employees as staffers and the police do nothing against it or in defense of the taxpayer. It appears that many from India are doing the devils works against Canadians https://youtu.be/LfLzJX7kXuI What is Pierre Poilievre doing for our economy again, as he claims that he has more important things to do to save our economy than stand in defense of the Canadian people for our rights and freedoms. https://youtu.be/sJyC7yda2FE Lies all lies as he plays the role of Pinocchio. Canada Nation Defense for terrorists against the people of Canada and believers in Jesus Christ. health Canada scientists promoting death and illness promoting things that are harmful to pregnant women, fake science and forcing these things on people by threatening their incomes livelihoods and freedoms to have basic living essential and conditions. Canada Revenue robbing every tax payer until the have nothing left. Even in your death as they find new was to ensure that death comes sooner than later in our lives by creating suicide programs, and free drug programs, criminal release programs, allowing criminals to break into your home to steal, destroy and kill you and your family, inviting terrorist into the country and free to do whatever harm they want to the Canadian people. You go to jail and they are free to do it again. This story of capital gains https://youtu.be/c0OukNP1vZ8is even before Carneys new 2026 Capital gains tax laws on you initial home and property as well, not just secondary real estate. They are greedy and want everything that you have worked your whole life for. Truth be told though, they have being saying this the whole time "you will have nothing and be happy" All these things are real and are happening in Canada under this evil agenda of both the Federal and Provincial governments. You as Canadians need to arm yourselves with the power Of God in Jesus Name as His word warns us in Ephesians 6:12; For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. If you still don't believe me, then ask yourself "What has any one of those fake politicians Federal and provincial done against any of these evil actions that have been forced onto the Canadian people since Trudeau too power ten years ago...That was rhetorical, that have done nothing but talk from both sides of their mouths. They have done nothing for the people but they have served themselves in every possible way as they are all guilty of taking your money and living high on the hog while you go broke, homeless and without food. They are true evil ang guilty of crimes against humanity. I vow as I decree and declare to my Father in the heavens in the name of Jesus, that I will pray for the good people of Canada against this evil and corruption every day. I hope that many of you will join me in these prayers IN THE MORNING AND AT NIGHT, for Him to defend us against our modern day Pharaoh in Canada and deliver us from our oppressors', as He did for Moses and his people in the Book of Exodus against that evil that Satan brought and is bring to us again today. Amen!

I am Native American. At college, I took a welding course just to break the monotony of classes as I was raised using my hands. This immigrant male, asked the rest of the class "why is she here?". I asked if he had a problem with me and he looked at the class to tell me not to speak to him. No one said a word but looked between us in silence. I asked him again, "do you have an issue with me being here?". Again he told the rest of the Caucasian men to tell me to stop speaking to him. I said if you have a problem with me, let's step outside and one of us will walk back in. You can't accept that a Native female is in this class, pack your family up and go home. Don't think of the state's because that's mine too. The teacher walked in and he could see and sense the tension in the room. He removed the immigrant and they went out of the room. A few minutes later the instructor came in and looked at me and said he'll be taking a class with no females. His country doesn't allow females an education yet alone a trade. You're welcome to stay. I have no intention to leave, was my comment back. I'm here to learn. Decades later, I'm driving home from northeastern Quebec and on the 401 is a gas/food stop. My child and I were passed by 4 luxury sports cars. They pulled into this stop and parked across all the handicapped parking spots. Bumper to bumper across the spots. We went in and met them as we came out and met a truck driver of the same nationality. He asked "how is Canada treating you?". They smiled and said "look", motioning to their silk suits. Another pointed to their cars. And another said "they treat us like kings'!". The fourth said "Canadians are easy to play! Cowards!!" A few days later, I'm at Walmart and present my tax exempt (we pay 5% tax) but the cashier looks at it and states "you all think your so special!!" Your paying the tax like everyone else! A customer behind me yelled for management loudly. When management showed, I didn't say a word because it was the customers behind and on the side of me with complaints of the rudeness of the cashier. She was removed and manager took over transactions. Not just mine but those after me. There was another incident with my child. An immigrant (can tell by the long tunic) was trying to lure my daughter away from me. I put her in a cart and requested help from a young employee who wanted me to write a book before calling security. Another employee came over and called security immediately. By the time they found the man, he had exited the store and got into a taxi. A few weeks later at an arena where youth hockey practice was taking place, the same scenario was happening. A man in a tunic was trying to lure children away and when caught, jumped into a taxi and left the scene. To attack an adult who can defend themselves is one thing but to go after children is another. I say stricter policy on crimes are needed.

I agree. Canadians are not getting jobs. All Canadians of every color. The govt is responsible for this epidemic. Cdn born students cannot get a job at any fast food joints. They are occupied by fake students . Chalo, fresco, no frills, real cdn superstore , Costco, Amazon etc are only hiring Sikh punjabis. This is called discrimination against the Cdn citizens of ever colour. Our standard of living is down. Send these so-called student back. Not forgetting the refugees who are collecting free housing, free money for clothing shelter. We did not vote for these million of refugees to come to our country with all their hate for Canadians and our way of life. Close the borders. Especially Roxham in Quebec. Criminals, terrorist are entering Canada without being vetted. Home owners should have the right to defend themselves against home invasion.

1. Almost 2.5 million Indians are currently living there. The total population is 41.6 million, so about 6% are Indians. The total number of Pakistanis is around 500K, and Bangladeshis about 100K. 2. Out of all these, an estimated 1.5 million people are either overstaying or have entered illegally. 3. Pakistanis and Bangladeshis are also involved in illegal activities (I’m not defending Indians—they are also involved, I’ll come to that). If you ask them, many will claim to be Indians. You can see the same trend in the UK as well. The reason I’m mentioning them is because they have a similar appearance to Indians. 4. Almost half of the Indians in Canada are living there illegally. Why do I say this? Because here in India I personally know many people from Punjab and Haryana who go there. In both states, you can easily find many agents who reassure people that they can send them to Canada or the USA without much difficulty. You can also see the trend among Punjabis—many aspire to drive trucks and cars in Canada. In India, people often see Punjabis as if their only purpose in life is to go to Canada. I love Punjabi people, but I don’t like this mindset. 5. So, the people you see doing disgusting things are most likely illegal immigrants. Why? Because genuine people go there to educate themselves and contribute something meaningful to the culture—not to behave like those individuals. 6. I really hope Canada can recover from this. I have a friend who went there in 2015, and he once told me to visit the country. Canadians are truly amazing, and the natural beauty (except the winter!) is so nice. Please, Canadian government, take some steps for the well-being of your people.❤

All this BS please, if you want to know why the racist immigrants are here taking over the country they escaped, for being poor and raped and beheaded, Islam is the worse kind of people they have let in, they aren't looking for peace they are looking for power EVEIL power, please ask the LIBERALS Why they are here, and when getting a job WHAT HAPPENED to CANADIANS FIRST, Canada I doomed, doomed if you are in your 20's 30's you may still experience the hate, they already speak their own language, refusing to speak English, refusing to serve people who are different from them, Canada is letting in selfish ignorant people, everything we Canadians say or ask them to is discrimination, they dress their way they run businesses their way, just like in their country, AND WHY ? because the Canadian government is weak, they can't defend the country or it's people shame on this Liberal government, they totally suck.

If I remember right canada first house crises was in the 19’s something and back then they started making more houses to resolved this problem………………..,… And I am thinking that getting immigrants from only 1 country might not be good, because of countries, society mentality…………. One Example ; a-lot people in the USA are strong guns advocate, if Canada only get people from the US and because the majority of Americans love their guns, they may advocate to have more guns freedom in Canada and teach their children guns loving mentality. So it is probably best to mix individual from various country to minimize this outcome. ………………. In any case immigration are very important for countries whom don’t make a lot of babies, to survive and stay strong in today’s world where weak countries are getting crushed by strong countries……………… what make countries strong is their population, where government take taxes to pay and buy defensive guns to defend a country without the need to go into dept and sell its soul to powerful countries. I did not go to any university and yet I was able to understand this …

Canada may have nobody to defend their border if US or China descide to overran this country

So now the government in Canada wants to defend us & tell us to stand united but in the past decade this country has turned into trash as they gave it away with an open door of Indians taking over and not giving AF about the people born and raised here - the adds on the radio ask us to keep our money in Canada and untie, but we dont even have a Canadian culture left anymore and people living here long enough know its true unfortunately, this was a great place to live but they destroyed it long before this issue - cost of living, housing crisis, immigration, gangs, crime etc. - If they want to keep letting people in here then start a service to help us get out and relocate before asking for help from the people you hurt

I stand with Canada, Ukraine and all of our allies. Thank you for being a mature statesman and defending your country and its people. I am ashamed of our leaders and apologize that you have to even make this speech. ♥️

I'm from the Netherlands, Canada you rock! We stand by you and Ukraine ?. We planned a family vacation to America this year and after the fight with Zelenski we annuled it immediately. Not going to spend my hard earned money in a country that defends a murderous dictator. Americans, I know it's Donald and the republicans, and that most of you don't want this. I hope the tides will turn quickly

Trudeau should be the last person to talk about making sense. Emboldened Khalistanis, encouraged illegal immigration, took the country down the tube. Radicals burning Canadian flag in the heart of Canada in pro- Palestine rallies. What step has he taken about it? At least Trump is “America first” president. Trudeau on the other hand is “everthing at expense of Canada”! Hopefully with right wing in administration in Canada, Trump will deescalate this. But all bets are off with him. \nAnyway, USA will never have Canada. People sacrificed themselves defending Canada’s sovreignty in the past. We will never give up Canada to anyone.

I do not blame Canada from reacting one bit. Wish we had someone who stands up for & defends our country like Justin Trudeau does for Canada. dumb donald has put this country in great danger. ??

We’re was this man the last 9 years??? Maybe give this Country a Military that’s Great!! And give us back our rights to protect and defend ourselves and our country this is what we need to stay independent sovereign and ? ?♥️god bless

JUSTIN TRUDEAU JUST RESIGN AND WALK AWAY. STOP INSULTING THE MOST POWERFUL COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. YOU HAVE DESTROYED THIS COUNTRY AND NOW YOU WANT TO PUT US AT WAR. OUR MILITARY IS RUINED BECAUSE OF YOU. THEY HAVE NO AMMUNITION TO FIGHT OR DEFEND US AND YOU ARE TRYING TO GET US IN A WAR. JUST TAKE THE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS YOU HAVE STOLEN FROM US AND DISAPPEAR SOMEWHERE WHERE WE WILL NEVER SEE YOUR FACE OR HEAR YOUR VOICE EVER AGAIN.

Canada, the American people stand with you. Personally I wish that Justin Trudeau was our president! Although I have to disagree with you, Trump is not at all a smart man. In fact he is the exact opposite. He is an imbecile! Undoubtedly, he is the worse thing that has ever happened to to the United States! The people of America needs to get rid of Trump!\n\nBut thank you, Justin Trudeau, for standing up for Canada and all of your reactions is just! Continue to defend your country. You are doing an outstanding job!

I think any person Who makes efforts to find the Best for its country should be considered as a patriot. Defend a Nation ist not a easy issue but the Canadian are free to choose the Best. For them. Good look, God bless you all.

No, (PRESIDENT) TRUMP, THATS RIGHT (PRESIDENT) TRUMP is making a statement that the US will no longer be second..\nAmerica 1st.. open your eyes, he’s defending our country making it great for all of us…

This is a true leader, defend your country and stand with your people

CNN is disgusted headlining Trudeau like he is amazing and defending Canada stop hating our country..Too many young kids have died from fentanyl poisoning because of these people why don’t you look a parent in the eye that lost a child and tell them what Trump is doing is wrong you would never you cowards

Guys, are you still in doubts and pretending to now see the country going down! You need to call your lawmakers now to change sides and have some immediate checks and balances on this government. Or else most of your wealth will be GONE while the Billionaires are getting richer. Stop the partisan politics now and defend your interests, America!

This imbecile ruined his country. Now he wants to lecture a superiors leader? He will cave within a month. \n\nWill they defend Canadian jobs? They have none?

Unfortunately this is becoming a common trend with your new president even with South Africa saying South Africa is oppressing Afrikaners who are the richest and wealthiest in the country all because we took Israel to the ICJ defending racists? Maybe the DEMS were correct

Trudeau is a weak leader! For the past 10 years, he has mismanaged Canada’s finances, leaving the country in a fragile position. Instead of focusing on Canada, he spent his time touring the world to defend Ukraine. He chose Ukraine over his own citizens—this is who Trudeau is, a traitor to his country!

What do you mean closest ally? You don’t even have Boy Scouts let alone an army that can defend your country! Well you will get what you give, and you can raise your tariffs all you want, ours will automatically match yours! So you cannot compete , you are a lier and you are out as the loser leading Canada to communism! Canada has no choice to join Trump!

I am ?? \nYes the tariffs are bad. But everyone forgets how much money we spend defending them and the subsidies we give every fiscal year. I understand that the market will suffer. I just don’t understand how people think it’s ok for ?? to provide military protection to other countries with the ?? taxpayer money. ?

Why should Americans continue to pay tariffs imposed by other countries, continue to lose jobs, continue to defend the world while the world continues to take advantage of our generosity. The time has come to put America first.

Canadian here ... we are so very proud of our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ... Canadians coast to coast are 100% united. We are buying Canadian, or if not available here from a trusted partner ... BOYCOT everything from the usa. We can NEVER trust the usa again. What I can't get by is 77+ million of you voted for ALL of this. We are defending our country, americans ask yourselves ... why exactly are you going to be paying more? who benefits? thank you felon president for this

Funny how Trump starts wars and removes any assistance Americans need from federal government… and here’s Trudeau, defending his country and beefing up federal aid to citizens who will need it. Trump is a Kkkuck. 100% for Canada

I’m not particularly a savvy political person, but even I could see this coming. Trump/Musk have chosen to start a war against our own people & isolating us from allies & neighbors is a particularly bad move. Who will defend us against Russian aggression when we have no allies & friends left. And make no mistake-this fits right into Putin’s plans. If The US is no longer able to stand against him, who will? It has been a balance of power that has kept democracy flourishing and given Americans so much freedom & prosperity. Trump/Musk are nothing but greedy fools who will end up destroying our country. ???

I don’t stand with anyone except the UNITED STATES Of AMERICA! But I want to make something very clear. We just went through 4 years of absolute hell with The Biden administration!! No way around it. And the democrats will do anything to make trump look bad no matter if it hurts our country or not. They simply hate the fact that the checks and the cross dressing and what ever nasty crap they spent our money on . They won’t talk about that! But what I want to know is why we aren’t saying ok Canada we spend trillions militarily protecting you. And the won’t even come up to the 2% on defense they lied about participating in. Why should we pay for everything then they want to tax us?? Should America not get something for protection of a country?? Why do we need to pay there bills? Why should we pay for a war we’re not in? Ukrainian war Americans pay?? No! Canada dosent defend themselves Americans pay?? Then when we tax them like they tax us they want to slap a gift horse in the mouth??

Lmao. Please Canada dont do it.... No you dont want this, you want a WAR. Ok. Lets go. Send your total 100k troops to defend your funny country... How about Canada spend at least 2% for nato, O wait you cant. Funny

My God CNN for once defend your own country instead against defending the enemy. . You're so pathetic.

Don’t be surprised Trump is trying to force his allies into a position where he will ‘claim’ they’re a danger to the US, so he can convince he owned and controlled political party and goons to ‘defend ‘ America and justify a war on those countries to gain control of their territories :(
