For what? So donald can get his tax break that will benefit himself and his wealthy buddies? Disgusting

Justin untrue doe knows his government will go Bank rupt with out the un balanced trade deals that swindle Americans and benefits Canada so now he has to come to the bargain table to address this issue so Donald can correct this unfair trade deal Justin untrue doe is screwed and he knows it how he addresses the issue will determine if Canada goes bankrupt or not good work by Trump to press the issue to benefit America

WHY DID WE CHOOSE TRUMP? Why do we keep choosing a party that has NEVER shown they were for the people? And of course, we knew what Trump was going to do. He was already president and we said 'no more'. He told us what he was going to do, we knew he was going to do it but many said 'oh he's not serious'. If you voted for Trump, you voted for this. If you are a democrat and didn't vote for Kamala, or vote at all, you voted for this. You voted for higher prices, less benefits for regular people, bigger tax cuts for the rich and a larger national debt and the US no longer a leading country.

I support all the Trans veterans writing comments to this video. I hope that you never lose your benefits for KY gel, gender affirming care

Ok maga faithful, can you name one single policy of your messiah that has actually made your life better or easier or cheaper ??? \nJust one , name one hat hasn’t directly benefited the richest people in our slowly dying country

When you go back in time 1880 and 1928- 1932 the government did the same thing and bankrupt their country and mr.trump need to go back to school and learn history of see a head shrink. This only for the benefit of his pocket book and his so called rich homies. Back the days when Kings were Kings if you did something against the country off with your head.

RESPONSE TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROPAGANDA AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP\n\nTo the American People, Mainstream Media, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk\n\nThe mainstream media is once again spinning lies and manipulating reality to push their globalist agenda.\n\n? THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT TRUMP IS CREATING A WAR WITH CANADA AND MEXICO.\n? THE TRUTH? TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE COLLAPSE THEY HAVE PLANNED.\n\nCNN and other media outlets are pushing a false narrative about President Trump imposing tariffs on Canada and Mexico as an “attack” or “act of economic war.” This is not about war. This is about taking America back from the deep state elites who have been destroying our economy and flooding our country with illegal immigration.\n\n1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.\n\n2. TRUDEAU IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE GLOBAL ELITES\n\nCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not defending Canada—he is defending the deep state agenda.\n\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau more upset about Trump’s tariffs than he is about China’s infiltration of Canada?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau defending globalist trade deals instead of fighting to keep Canada’s economy strong?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau suddenly trying to turn Americans against Trump right as NATO and the EU are pushing for war?\n\nBECAUSE THIS IS A COORDINATED ATTACK.\n\n? Trudeau is panicking because Trump is taking away their power.\n? Trudeau is working with the globalists to weaken America.\n? Trudeau knows his country depends on the U.S., and if America stops playing their game, Canada collapses too.\n\nThis is why he is attacking Trump, calling him “dumb” on CNN, and trying to manipulate the American people into turning against their own president.\n\n3. TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE IMMIGRATION INVASION\n\n? FACT: Canada and Mexico have been working alongside the deep state to flood America with illegal immigrants.\n? FACT: The goal was to change U.S. demographics, destroy the economy, and create a permanent voting base for globalist-controlled politicians.\n? FACT: This was NEVER about helping migrants—this was about replacing the American people with a population that could be controlled.\n\n? Why do you think Biden opened the borders?\n? Why do you think millions of illegal immigrants are being shipped across the U.S. at taxpayer expense?\n? Why do you think every major city is being overrun with migrants while American citizens are struggling?\n\nThis is planned destruction—and Trump is stopping it.\n\n? Trump and JD Vance will shut down illegal immigration completely.\n? Trump will reimplement strict border security, build more of the wall, and stop the deep state from using mass migration as a weapon.\n? The globalists are afraid because if Trump stops their immigration plan, they lose their ability to control future elections and destroy American sovereignty.\n\n4. THE MEDIA IS LYING TO YOU—AGAIN\n\n? The same mainstream media that lied about Russian collusion is now pushing the lie that Trump is starting a war with Canada and Mexico.\n? The same mainstream media that censored the truth about Biden’s corruption is now protecting Trudeau and the deep state’s plan.\n? The same mainstream media that attacked Trump for four years straight is now attacking him again because they know he is winning.\n\nTHIS IS A DISTRACTION.\n\nThey want you to focus on fake outrage about tariffs while ignoring the real crisis:\n\n? AMERICA IS BEING INVADED FROM WITHIN.\n? THE DEEP STATE WANTS TO COLLAPSE THE U.S. THROUGH MASS MIGRATION.\n? THE GLOBALISTS NEED TRUMP GONE BECAUSE HE IS STOPPING THEIR PLAN.\n\n5. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE AWAKE—WE WILL NOT FALL FOR THIS\n\nTo CNN and the mainstream media: We know you are lying. You have lost control of the narrative, and the American people see through your propaganda.\n\nTo Justin Trudeau: You are a puppet, and your attempts to manipulate Americans will fail.\n\nTo President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance: The American people stand with you. We know you are fighting for our country, and we will not be fooled by the lies of the globalist elite.\n\nTo Elon Musk: Keep exposing the truth. The deep state is afraid because they can no longer censor real information.\n\nTo every American reading this: Share this message before they try to silence it.\n\nTHIS IS NOT ABOUT TRADE. THIS IS ABOUT THE FUTURE OF AMERICA.\nTHE DEEP STATE IS PANICKING—AND THAT MEANS WE ARE WINNING.\n\n? AMERICA FIRST. 1776 WILL NOT BE ERASED. ?\n\nThis response is clear, powerful, and directly dismantles the mainstream media’s lies. I encourage you to copy and paste this as one unified message for YouTube, social media, or emails.

Magnitude of difference between an intelligent, educated man vs. uneducable idiot!!! For those who voted for Trump, ARE YOU HAPPY NOW??? Who is benefiting from the Trump presidency? Higher price for middle and lower income families with more job elimination. The market decline which affects job market and asset erosion for equity holders. Nobody benefits!!!

How come i feel like Russia and China are behind all this? Its to far off logic and based on BS. In such cases, look at who benefits.. wel...

The Canadian government imposed sanctions on Rwanda on something Canadians don't know anything about, and they chose to punish the people of Rwanda for their own benefits in DRC, now that the tables are turning on them just for tariffs they are crying talking to the american people directly as if they care. \nThe hypocrisy of these countries and their politicians is on another level

One thing is remarkable. He spells out all these while assuring the Canadian people the government will stand by them through the tough moments and expand benefits to mitigate the situation. I don’t know if Americans will be getting the same treatment from the federal government.

I’m sorry that Trump is so unreasonable. Trump only cares about the income that will benefit the rich, himself and power. The tariffs will effects jobs and people. Trump is an embarrassment to most of the people here. Elon Musk help him win the election by paying people to vote for Trump which I think should be against the law. Trump is putting the USA in a very dangerous place. Most of us stand with Canada and Ukraine but no one can bring Trump to reason. I really think Trump is plain outride stupid. Please keep fighting for Canada.

No one is interested in anything he is saying. The people just want to hear what the people are saying about all of this and not some hand in the money jar ? freak. People like him need to go. He is just another liar for his own benefit. Trump and his merry helpers are putting this right and exposing the trubble makers all over the world and their shitting them selfs so don’t listen too any of his/ there bull sh1t Because we the people don’t need people like this ???✊?

Thanks trump for creating enemies right on America north and south border. China will be strategically benefitted. Country cannot be ruled as corporate

The announcer here says that Canadians will suffer but many Americans will too. She is not understanding that Americans are going to suffer far more from this than Canadians. According to the economists Canadians may actually benefit.

The only thing that makes sense to me is that this is amother move that benefits Russia

Harris voter here, you gotta do what you gotta do Canada. I don't know if I will make it through this but there are people out there in worse situations with more overtly oppressive governments, so I can't complain too much. The only thing I can do is hope that the breaking point is soon where those of us who don't hold contempt for compassion and intellect rise up and show the government that we have had enough. I have never wished misfortune upon another human being before, but Trump and Vance have blatantly shown that they are legitimately evil human beings with only their own interests in mind. They are not true Americans, because they don't care about America beyond exploiting it to their own benefit.

Trump just loves to play dirty…he’s a thug and a felon..a vile subhuman who has a black heart ? and the need for greed that surpasses any other person ever..he doesn’t care for the people only his billionaire friends, money and power….this is all for Putins benefit. There is a Canadian election in 2025 but not any day now…get your facts straight!

These guys in charge seem to think this is one big game and we are all impacted directly and most harshly for no benefit whatsoever. Madness. Ego gets in the way of diplomacy. The human race is strongest when working together. Nobody achieves anything alone. ?

A true leader. Canada was lucky to have him. We’re stuck with someone who is purposely harming us and our livelihoods to benefit himself and his rich friends.

Why not just do what benefits your country? You whine as you know what Trump is doing will hurt your country but benefits US.

The U.S. needs to reduce the trade gap with Canada—plain and simple! We’re done putting our country’s needs second to benefit Canada. Now, let’s talk about the trade imbalance you have with us.

Despite: \n \n- Releasing felons and undermining the justice system, \n- Picking fights with every U.S. ally, \n- Suggesting NATO can no longer rely on America a direct gift to Russia’s strategic goals, \n- Dismantling government institutions, weakening internal stability, \n- Defying the rule of law and disregarding the separation of powers, \n- Appointing loyalists to key positions, consolidating control, \n- Leaving the U.S. vulnerable to Russian cyberattacks by scaling back security efforts, \n- Siding with adversarial nations like Russia while alienating traditional allies, \n- Smearing a democratically elected president at war pushing for a regime change that favors Russia, \n- And systematically weakening global alliances, fracturing Western unity to Russia’s benefit, \n- Ignoring the growing threat of Chinese expansion, weakening the U.S. position in global power struggles, \n- Encouraging political violence and extremism, further fracturing the social fabric and putting democracy itself at risk, \n- Turning a blind eye to the economic crisis, with inflation, rising debt, and an unstable market exacerbated by reckless economic policies, \n- Chipping away at civil liberties, normalizing authoritarian behavior, and restricting freedom of speech. \n \nTrump is still your president. \nAnd what does the U.S. have to show for it? \n \n- No strengthened alliances. \n- No economic gains. \n- No enhanced national security. \n- No diplomatic victories. \n- No solid foundation for the future just a nation divided, with its core values slowly eroding. \n \nEvery move seems to serve Russia’s interests while leaving America weaker, more isolated, and more divided. \nAnd yet, there are no mass protests, no storming of the Capitol, no widespread political fallout. The U.S. hasn’t fallen in a blaze. It’s crumbling quietly, a victim of divide and conquer.

Dear Mr. President Trump, would you please reconsider welcoming these wonderful fellow North Americans living in these TEN Canadian Provinces, not as the 51st State, but as TEN States, when being invited into the United States of America? These Canadian Provinces being Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.\n\nSuggested is to make Canada’s existing 10 Provinces into 10 individual United States States. Canada will benefit with a strong 10 State influence within 60 United States governance affairs. Benefits are 10 more States on a balanced display welcomed as 10 white stars within the beautiful United States of America field of Blue of our Flag. Other countries will see North America’s Great Power when 60 glorious States, when combined, and working well together, communicating best when communicating with each other only in English, when English is the United States official National Language. No more Government waste of having multi language signage. Another geologically considered North American country, Greenland, with 4 more territories may wish to add four more States, as well as the many existing United States Territories across the globe may desire Statehood. The Sun will never set on the United States. As for 10 Canadian States, think of the  benefit of 20 mostly conservative thinking U.S. Senators which equals a larger majority of conservative votes in the larger U.S. Senate when composed of 120 Senatorial political leaders. 120 U.S. Senators keep the Filibuster procedure balanced. 10 Canadian Provinces converted into 10 United States States equals many more conservative House of Representatives votes enhancing the conservative majority of political leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives. So many good reasons why Canada’s 10 Provinces, with a mostly conservative thinking population of thinkers, should be transformed into 10 new United States States, not just one United States. Yes....10 more States that is the helpful way forward for the United States to have a very dominant conservative thinking population of United States Congress Political Leaders, resulting in a long term more stable United States Congress representing 60 United States, thinking more conservative, thinking more logical, thinking more common sense thoughts, thinking more capitalist job creation thoughts, thinking more tax cut thoughts, are just some of the benefits of having 60 United States of America States on  display, and functioning efficiently going forward for all the World’s Countries to marvel at.

Trump is an asset of Vladimir Putin. When you look at who ultimately benefits from all the craziness because of Trump, it’s Putin. He is the benefactor of everything Trump is doing. We knew this a long time ago, he didn’t even want to peacefully transfer power, caused a riotous assault on the US capital, he has now given Putin everything when it comes to Ukraine, made a pathetic adolescent attempt to demonize Zelensky, and yet he still sits as the leader of the most power country in the world. He should be rotting in jail for the rest of his life. He has betrayed everything free democracies stand for.

Threatening Trump and America won't benefit, table talk will help. Can Canada sustain in a real fight (economic) with the US?

One man thinking about his own country and his own people has Canada begging pleading whining about it...Boo hoo! Lazy Canadian Politicians. Corrupt Crony leaders benefitting their FAMILY FRIENDS and Friends of friends, never bothered to stand Canada on its own 2 feet! TRUDEAU and his Cabinet top that list of scoundrels. Doug Ford, the chubby pillsbury man follows next and CORRUPT PENSION HOGGER JAGMEET SELLOUT SINGH , corrupt Expensive Watch Lover comes next.\nAnd look at them crying now. What a shameful circus these rascals are putting up. So much so as asking TRUMP to be banned from Canada...Thats SELLOUT JAGMEET SINGH's 3rd world politics 101.\n\nPS I am a Canadian...and an embarrassed one at that.

Trump is more supportive of Putin than of the free world. We don’t want this either. Trump is going to create a worldwide recession. Who does that benefit? No one. Trump is more willing to support Putin than our allies. For someone who’s supposed to be bright; he’s not demonstrating anything but incompetence.

Why is it that everyone outside of America has an expectation on how we should be that benefits them. This can has been kicked down the road for multiple decades. The waste, fraud, and abuse we are uncovering in the government. The situation with NATO and Ukraine and no one can fix their problems or issues without the US. We have aggressive homelessness, poverty, poor education system, high taxes, and a government that in the past has done nothing but pimp our tax dollars out just for kickbacks. Everyone is pissing and moaning about our domestic problems while also having an extremely high bar on the international stage. I have never received aid from the UN, never receive money from other countries, nor assistance. Is no one in America tired of this? Here we are talking about Bourbon tax….lol. A great reset needs to happen and though I do not like it, it is happening and I am here for it. BTW I love Canada and Mexico and believe at best that if we pull out of NATO I would still hope we can have an Americas/Mexico treaty.

When are people going to wake up and realize that Trump is a Russian asset he is doing what he is told to do. He is not for America. He is an enemy of America. Everything that he is doing is to benefit. Russia wake up people he is a treasonous lying fraud, and he needs to be in jail. He needs to be removed immediately

Trump is a problem to the developed countries but a bitter blessing to the third world countries. Look at African countries they have everything that nature can provide they are capable of standing on their two F... Foot but the US has been like a mother who doesn't want to let her kids walk by there own feet. The US has been dishing the African countries with chocolate that doesn't benefit them with anything this is the biggest course of poverty in Africa. They need to get away from the USA and the rest of the developed countries so that they can create a better African for their people. Trump please cut them all out cut the relationship so that this countries may elect a proper president without the developed countries planting their puppets. Please let them go for once

True Americans stand with all people who are fair, honest and DEMOCRATIC in their thinking...that includes the people of Canada and Mexico. I'm not altogether certain about the Chinese but we'll see if or how this impacts them and the reaction from there. That BUM knows precisely who those tariffs will benefit and it's not the people who work so hard in order to live their lives. I'm not crazy about Free Trade either but it is what it is.... This is retaliation...pure and simple. Anyone who crosses him will live to regret it...he'll make certain of it. He must be stopped and stopped NOW!

This ONLY makes sense if you're looking to destabilise an economy which in the case of America will cause a global chain reaction... What more does Trump need to do before his spineless party call him out?\n\nLiterally everything Trump has done since 2016 has worked to the direct benefit of Russia and AGAINST the interests of America and its historic allies... Occam's Razor.

funny how anything trump does benefits russia.

It is disheartening to see a long and beneficial relationship deteriorate and without any clear benefits anywhere. However, the media here in Sweden portrays your nation as filled with good persons uniting and supporting of one another. From the bottom of my heart, I truly wish you the very best, and I will support if any opportunity appears.

This turning on allies thing that America has started, how does it benefit them?

Maybe a little rough right now, but it’ll all work out and have a major benefit for Americans. Us first, everyone else last.

Russian economy is the size of italy. Other than putin having dirt on trump, why favor them? Why would the rupublicans go with it other than they personally benefit in some way?

You mention that Americans are 30% more expensive than Canadians but you dont mention that the US is far more unequal with a Gini coefficient of 0.41 vs 0.35 in Canada. Now there is also a known issue with using GDP data to calculate productivity and that is that in sme countries the labor of GDP is much lower than in others. You then end up with Irish productivity being the second highest in the world only because most large US corporations operating in the EU register there to pay lower taxes but most of that revenue is just on paper for Ireland. or with Guyana whose oil and mining revenue makes it productivity equal to that of the US. Maybe that is the case, but is it? and if so why is the average wage in Guyana so much lower? so choosing only one specific stat can make any point of view seem true. you have to look at the bigger picture.\nnow the issue is Canada has been getting more unequal but it is still much better than the US. so what it means is that the higher worker productivity in the US benefits corporations and billionaires far more than it benefits the average American. now if we compare cost of living say between NYC and Toronto:\nCost of Living in Toronto is 37.5% lower than in New York, NY (without rent) \nCost of Living Including Rent in Toronto is 47.1% lower than in New York, NY \nRent Prices in Toronto are 59.2% lower than in New York, NY \nRestaurant Prices in Toronto are 34.5% lower than in New York, NY \nGroceries Prices in Toronto are 33.0% lower than in New York, NY \nLocal Purchasing Power in Toronto is 7.2% higher than in New York, NY \nand this is similar when comparing almost all large Canadian cities with a comparable US one. And whilst housing and NIMBYIsm is real issue you have very similar issues in the US which also has almost no mix zoning. But throw in safety nets and go ask Canadians if they want to change for the US system. I doubt most will. Sure some want things to change but some assuming everyone wants an ultra capitalistic society. most are ok with less growth ut better balanced growth (the exact opposite of the boom and bust US model)

Honestly, the way of saying that one people is more productive then the other is such an extreme oversimplification. I know this is a general term used by economists, but I can’t see the benefit. It is divisive and I feel like it would be more beneficial and interesting to just dive into each countries finacial strategy. \n\nP.S. Love the content, english is not my first language and no personal stake in the argument since according to the simplification I am apart of one of the most productive populations of the planet.(Norway)

Why did the US government gave them benefits which is not available to most citizens? Hotel accommodation, $300/wk food stamps, healthcare, etc?

Not interested in Canada. happy where I am with all the benefits i think is important for my living. Canada might be good for idiots from south asia. but the way I look at life its no where near to be even considered for migration. Starting with Income tax haha. Why the heck ytube is pushing these sh1t to my feeds. Need some hints to teach ytube that I DO NOT CARE.

In Japan buildings depreciate in value, like cars, so the house I built last year is worth less this year (and my taxes on it are less). When I first got here I thought it was a horrible system, but now I see what a powerful benefit it is. Housing is quite affordable and there are lots of mixed neighborhoods, like mine, with million-dollar homes, small multi-units, and fewer gated communities. We suffer from a blight of abandoned buildings because at a certain point it just doesn't make economic sense to fix up an old (often cheaply made) home. But because home ownership is a luxury, like a fancy car, not a necessary means to accrue wealth, mortgages and rents are low and there's cheap (and small, so very very small) housing everywhere.

We just had an election in Ontario and basically nothing changed. Ontario has been one of the worst performing provinces in Canada for the majority of Doug Ford's mandate over Ontario but people seemingly don't care enough to want change. One of the major problems with Canada in terms of politics is that the aging population has some of the largest block of voters and can pretty much overrule anything that would benefit the younger generation if it would hurt their investments.

All joking aside, Canada has been able to form a symbiotic relationship of mutual benefit with the United States since even before NAFTA 1. But.......... right now it is almost like a 51st state and I do not mean that in a joking way. US states are always competing with each other, but what prevents things like, oh say the American Civil war from happening is the Federal apparatus keeps them in line for the good of the empire as a whole. \n\n If Canada is like a 51st state, then it is competing with the other 50 states in a way that all 50 of them are going to get upset about. So either the states complain, or you treat Canada as an economic competitor. Mexico being behind the United States and Canada is what makes it a good candidate for a symbiotic relationship. For all its problems, Mexico has a Christian population (with some indigenous traits) that goes well with America. Their nations different economic status means we can support them and they can support us doing different things for countries of different development stages.\n\nCanada being so similar to the United States will want that as well and will never outbid the United States. Again this is seen as a hostile economic competitor. \n\nIts not Canada or Americas fault. After 2007 and the lies about fanny and Freddie, leman bros, mortgage backed security's, and a cash shortage that was not real. How was it real if the offshore exchanges did nothing? 2007 was not financial in origin it was our global monetary system seizing up. To say Wall Street greed and MBSs did it would be like saying a single drop of cement turned the ocean to cement.\n\nBut something did. Something turned the market from liquid to concrete, it happened in France decades before......\nFinancially packaged items could no longer be priced or traded.

If my country doesn't get housing costs under control they're in serious trouble. The average house in the town I live in is something like 900K and there's basically no local economy. With costs so high I can't afford to start a family. If we keep gaining old folks needing healthcare while keeping housing expenses high and wages low taxes will have to keep going up.\n\nI am not going to continue to pay huge portions of my income for the benefit of the elderly while I can't afford a decent lifestyle. I don't want to but it seems moving to the US or elsewhere is the only option if things continue this way. At list point the local governments are so invested in denying housing permits and abusing zoning laws to prevent housing being built that the only way to fix it would be to strip the provinces and cities of the right to decide their own zoning bylaws. \n\nI want to see a change in the constitution that makes zoning bylaws illegal. There are too many people thinking of their self interest and not of the Nations interest. We deserve to lose the right to decide what can be built in our neighborhoods. We have been abusing this right for too long

Why we are normalising this racism face by Indian ? what the benefit of having so much english speaking internet users when we can't trend a #.so that the topic of racism face by india become global news.????

Pretty upseting for a nation positioned so well with such opportunities it could benefit from.\nNIMBYism mixed with zero incentives for entrepreneurship leads to this.
