Trump's administration and handling of ICE is becoming a chaotic disaster, but I am so glad they are locked in. They need better training, better rhetoric, and better leadership. Every time I think about how dangerous they are becoming, I also remember this could be America lol idk why we can't win... just needs to be accountability and actual morals

I hope the Trump Administration takes this video seriously.

Canadians! Arm yourselves now! This administration is capable of absolutely everything. And if Vance takes over, he’s even more dangerous than Trump.

As Canadian citizens we want our money back , this was the liberal government’s irresponsibility that caused this , we should not have to pay for their irresponsibility. The Biden administration opened their borders to spite trumps wall and the Canadian liberal party followed the same policy.

The Biden Administration did the same thing— Trump came in and turned the app into a self-deportation one. “Book your own free flight home on the CBP Home App… If we have to find you— you’ll never come back. If you book your own flight out thru this app, it is free and you have a chance to come back legally one day. We’ll even throw in $1K USD for spending. This way you get the change to say goodbye, pack, and plan to leave… otherwise, we will pick the time and place you’ll leave and you’ll end up detained while waiting to leave.”

This is the tip of the iceberg for government, institutional corruption. Canada is still under the Biden administration. Canadians one day will see the house cleaning the Trump administration did was the only way.

I bet that all those Indian students crossed the border and are in the US. It's time for the Trump administration to militarized the northern border. Canada can't be trusted.

Many years ago, Trudeau helped the Trump administration to backlog Ms. Meng Wanzhou, the daughter of Huawei's CEO. Now Trump wants to increase tariffs on Canada. This was just a few months ago. After Trudeau visited Trump, Trudeau was really embarrassed. No wonder Xi Jinping said Trudeau was very naive. It seems that there is a reason.??

Proud of our Canadian leadership ?Trump and his administration are trying to destabilize North America. Their end-game is authoritarianism on the model of Russia itself. Apparently Putin never speaks about Canada, just as he never used to utter the name of Navalny... Curious...

Trump and his administration seems to be secretly working for China and Russia.

American here that has extensive relationships in Canada. We don’t want this tariff war but the tariffs being implemented first by the Trump administration on behalf of US were punitive for violating USMCA and tied directly to the border defects. This was made known in advance and you repeated empty promises. Take your medicine and get well fast. Instead of doing that, you are taking an action that will beget reciprocal tariffs. Implement $30B and Trump will add $30B….add another $125B later and Trump will add another $125B. Heads up….America wants good partners and looks forward to being past this as well. In the meantime, we are prepared to pay more (or live with less) as we get back up on our feet. We have a lot of internal healing and cannot carry any other countries right now. Not sure if that was ever a good thing for either of us. Time to heal our broken ways ….sorry if you got used to our last administration being feckless.

Well said Justin Trudeau tell him Trump & that pathetic administration of his how it is

Mr Trump says the Tariff is good for America economy. He spoke about that in Congress. Of course it will have a boomerang effect but certainly he and his administration have discussed about it and decided the best for America.

His mistake in this speech was calling Trump smart. Why would he say that!?!? Trump is not smart.\nUS citizen here, and I’m all for every country standing against the Trump administration, even at our detriment.

But Trump administration still sending millions of billions help and aid to Israel?

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.

As a British person never have I disliked America as much as i do at the moment. Trump and his administration is nothing but a bunch of bullies!\n\nThe Western allies need to stand up against him and his regime and sanction/tariff America. It is the only way, the American people and Trump will see what they are doing to the world.\n\n?????????????????

Putin is getting exactly what he told the moron-in-chief to do and as soon as trump manages to alienate the rest of the civilised world he will drop the sanctions with Russia and make personal business deals with them.\nThis isn't about America - this is about trump incorporated and every stupid decision he makes will be preceded by market trades by third parties that will be hard to trace back to people in his administration.\nHe's stealing from MAGA and they're applauding him.\nAlso, trump is not smart - he's a crook, and dumb as a fencepost.

So many Americans absolutely despise tRUMP and his administration personnel.

I’m in Los Angeles we want trump and Elon and all trump administration out of government.. believe us not every one is with these dumb president

As a U.S. citizen, my full support to you Canada- but going forward please emphasize that the Trump administration is choosing to start this trade war -not America-millions of us do not support or want to be associated with that tyrant in the White House!

Very straightforward condemnation against the Trump administration on these tariffs. Trump is looking for trouble at the expense of the citizens without thinking about the welfare of the people. Trump wants to bankrupt Canada because it has ample resources and Trump wants Canada to be the 51st state. It is quite impossible to bankrupt Canada because it can always expand its international trade to other countries, like Europe, etc. Do not tolerate the bully. Salute to Trudeau for being honest to confirm that there are no winners in this stupidity.

Well done Canada the first but not the last to stand up to the tyrannical Trump administration.\nPrime Minister Trudeau now your team had lead the way I know others will follow.\nYou have my backing and support from Australia.\n????????????

He behaved like a politician, all emotional knee jerk reactions are from upper grass mongers , sadly majority in the society are filed with such people. \nDevil is always in the details. His local reputation is not good and to loose upcoming elections , to divert and shift focus, this is an attention diverting tactics to shift attention and make him look like a hero. \nIf he really cared for his people, he would have either prevented it by aggressive backdoor talks or, or if this happened without his awarness then he could have spoken privately to Trump to sort it out in the real interest of his own nation, cut the ego for Good of his own people and an sort it out , why he did not do it ?\nNow by publically engaging and directly targetting, he has achieved two things 1. temporary fame as majority of people are upper grass mongers are emotional but no attention to details 2. He spoiled further his relationship with Trump administration by this public spat, rubbing him on the wrong side, spoils future of his own people. Diplomacy is done by maturity not by ego.

American here. I am on a limited income (Social Security) but I 100% support Canada & what Canada needs to do to counteract the actions of our incompetent, insane 'President'. Go Canada! We not-insane Americans salute you & apologize for our 'Orange Menace'. We look forward to when our governments can be friends again. Our two peoples will always be Friends! (I have family there also.) P.S. The drug issue is a fake issue on the part of the Trump Administration. We all know it's the market that drives illegal drugs-- i.e. our own drug abusers buying this stuff. Cheers, & With Hopes for a Better America. (And Slava Ukraine!)

Common man, Trudeau is acting like a kid, what is that ? Why did he respond to the raise of taxes ? \nFor me, he should be negocating with Trump administration's, he did not do enought, what a joke.\nI' am from Canada and I need Trudeau to go away ; may be Trump is doing this because Trudeau has done too much against Trump, we need a new administration to talk with Trump.

He spoke eloquently using FACTS not LIES like Donald Trump. He didn’t sugar coat anything. He spoke directly to Donald. \n\nTRUMP has been making DUMB DECISIONS over and over. THIS TIME is being controlled and e has shown to the world thatHE IS THE PUPPET of a ?BILLIONAIRE IMMIGRANT WHOSE GOAL IS TO CONVERT THE US TO A COMMUNIST COUNTRY imitating HITLER. \n\nDonald LIED to VOTERS promising to reduce inflation and increase jobs. Donald please STOP BEING PUPPET OF ELON, VANCE. And all others. \n\nTHIS IS NOT HOW TO MAKE THE US GREAT AGAIN… YOU ARE MAKING IT THE WORST and destroying everything great former leaders worked hard to build. \n\nYOUR EGO is making you blind. \nYOU LIED using God’s name in vain to obtain votes. \n\nWORST ADMINISTRATION IN HISTORY\n\nGod sees everything.

This tariff war makes no sense. Trump is an evil idiot. The Musk -Trump administration is really trying to destroy the quality of life for most Americans, probably to force us into destitute situations that they and their cronies can exploit.\nAlso, Trump is playing jnto Putin's hands so easily.

As an American, I stand with Canada and any other country that is repelled and repulsed by the idiocy that is the Trump administration. Blaming anyone and everyone for our own shortcomings is a fools errand and a petty and idiotic way of governing. This country is under the rule of a narcissistic dictator wanna be and a cult of clueless clowns.

CNN should nonstop put in news about Trump’s administration lies every minutes. Democrats need to be strong against traitor administration!

Canada: our closest ally and our closest friend. No truer words ever spoken, Prime Minister Trudeau. Were it not for our government, and by government, we mean the idiots in charge of our executive branch, we would have no new tarriffs. Left to our own devices, we might be reasonable, though that is somewhat dubious given our recent plebecite, which reintroduced the world to the sick, evil terrorist organization known as the Trump administration.

I'm an American, but I do not support Mr. Trump. It's a shame and embarrassment. I am sick over this administration.

As a Canadian I'm still in shock and can't make any sense of what Trumps doing. We do everything for the USA and are close Allies..I lost respect for Trump and his administration.

Trump is a G , Trump wants a even playing field with all countries ripping off America due to them taking advantage of a corrupt , incompetent Biden administration. Trudeau doesn't practice what he preaches. Its alright when they do it, its a problem when Trump does it.

Why are Western leaders blind-sighted by what Trump is doing? For many years now the US is declining slowly, slowly and then suddenly under the Biden Administration....Pres Trump has no choice but to take drastic action to stop the collapse of the US Empire. What he is doing many may be against but one thing is for sure. Pres Trump is putting America first and this is what good leaders do...

Donald will break his own arm trying to twist Justin’s arm. Canada is no Ukraine. Trump has bitten more than he can chew. Good luck Americans. Your Administrations both the current and one in the past are your worst enemies. Both the Democracy’s and the Republicans have let you down. Wake up, the world does not revolve around you.

As an American citizen, I am against the Trump Administration tariffs against Canada.

We hear leaders of other countries who speak like Statesmen but Trump speaks like an idiot who is backed by clowns in his weird administration.

Principles for Dealing with The Changing World Order By Ray Dalio. \nAlthough it may seem like Trump is hurting the economy at the time being. He is doing the US economy a long term favor. Nothing personal against our fellow Canadians. We love our allies. But the US needed a Leader like Trump after the Bummy Biden administration. God Bless EVERYONE reading this comment. We will all make it through this.

We dont want this either…the golden age only applies to billionaires that will profit from trump’s administration. We know that anything that comes out of trumps mouth is a lie. The heritage foundation and white nationalists have distorted trumps view and feed his need for power while they dismantle our country.

We ARE with you Canada. We are and will fight against the Trump administrations criminal activities.

It is very clear the Trump administration wishes to join Russia in a pact of Dictatorships. The GOP see an opportunity to set up a Kingdom for ultra conservatives at the expense of our republic.

Go prime minister treudou apply it to Trump administration???????

I still don’t get how MAGA people don’t see how Trump and his administration is screwing our economy even more than it already was!!! His policies are only making the rich even richer while suffocating even more the average American. What will it take for them to open their eyes!!!

MAGA Trump administration are traitors to America ?? and the democratic world ? selling us all out to murderous Russia ??

Trump and Vance are clear Russian agents. Proud of Canada for standing up to this dumb ass administration. Embarrassed to be American even though I didn’t choose this President. These administration obviously has no idea what they are doing or purposely spreading chaos.

My fellow Americans need to wake up with pain. This is great move. This Trump administration is all about revenge and taking profits themselves. They are the true anti-ppl and anti-govt. - from American

Aloha Prime Minister, Trudeau, and Canadiens, the majority in this country can’t stand the current administration in our embarrassed, concerned, and want him out along with every MAGA moron selling this country out! I am so angry and disgusted! I apologize for our horrific leadership and I hope one day the people who are responsible for what is happening will be charged with sedition and espionage! I’ve had it. I stand with Ukraine Canada and the same citizens of this country who despise everything this current administration has done since they took office! You people who believe that Trump is this wonderful person and he’s doing wonderful things for America read a fucking history book!

Very proud of our Prime Minister!!! The Trump administration is currently destroying America. Canadians and Americans have been working hand in hand for more than a century and it's so sad to see that a bunch of billionnaires are using lies and manipulation to get their way. I'm also very surprised to see that the Republican politicians are reacting like puppets. Let's hope that truth and common sense will soon prevail in the United States.

I have never been so ashamed to be an American ? It’s like Trump is trying to hurt as many innocent people as he can. He is abusing nice people like the Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau. He is hurtful to the Mexicans and immigrants as well. I was so angry with the way the Trump administration ganged up on and bullied the nice, strong Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. I loathe the Trump administration. Trudeau and Zelenskyy are vastly superior to Trump and everyone in his administration.
