WHAT ABOUT THE DRUGS THAT ARE MADE IN THE US POURING INTO CANADA??

Trump's rationale of the border security issue to Canada is totally false as less than 1 percent of drugs and illegals come through Canada. Trump is just being a bully to try to get his way on tariffs for what he thinks is an economic decision to improve the USA. Unfortunately he is again wrong as Americans and Canadians will pay a lot more for goods and Trump will cause more inflation, ruin companies and many job losses across both nations.

canada stop the drugs and illegal crossings simple !!

Canada and Mexico need to do a better job at controlling illegal immigration and stopping drugs from entering America

Canada and Mexico were BOTH warned about the tarriffs because of illegal immigration and drugs entering the States BECAUSE OF CANADA AND MEXICO.. it is no wonder that USA are doing this to you, quit complaining and learn that you CANNOT comply with illegal behaviour!

Its a bit of a headscratcher why US is imposing heavy handed tariffs on Canada if illegal immigration and drug trafficking from Canada is not that high. Almost seems like a personality issue - Trump doesnt like Trudeau bcoz he made fun of him or something..

Drug trafficking and illegal immigration a. re not the reasons. Less than 1% of immigrants and drugs enter through Canada. He's just crazy.

Trump’s tariffs (/geo-economic warfare)—and his desire to annex Canada and Greenland and seize back control of the Panama Canal—has got little to do with immigration or drugs coming into the US (whatever happened to Build the Wall?) especially in the case of Canada. It’s about debt and power, the former growing, the latter fading. Trump himself has said tariffs are a means to make America wealthy and to abolish income tax. It’s got to do with America living outside its means with massive deficits and ballooning debt, and rather than take responsibility for that, the US thinks others should pay (when US consumers will) for it to continue to live outside its means, while it cuts taxes largely to the benefit of the wealthy... \nRemember when Iraq invaded Kuwait, how it said it was because Kuwait (and the United Arab Emirates) caused a drop in oil prices with the overproduction of crude oil, thus impacting Iraq’s ability to pay its debts and recover from the Iran-Iraq war, but really it was about seizing Kuwait’s large oil reserves, canceling the debt it owed Kuwait, and expanding its power in the region… Sound similar?

Right now Canadaian borders are wide open, no one is actually running the country, same ppl who ruined the country are trying to get elected again without even an inch of remorse, it has become a breeding ground for terrorist supporting groups, foreign interference, everyone can do what evr they want without having to face consequences, smuggling hundreds of kilos of drugs easily across the borders...Canada is now a land that is imploding and a prime example of how to run a country to ruins in 9 yrs...

Thing is the oh so bright Kamala went there and told them they could come and our constitution and laws didn't apply to them. It was all set up to destroy America and then if you remember Joe signed something with Mexico and Canada giving up sovernty-to our border. Venezuela president a bad boy. He let his prison open for them to come here and Mexico agreed to let them all come through. Drug and human trafficking. I hate it for these ppl but the USA is broke. We borrow money every year to send money and aide to other country's. Why? They all have rich lands .they sell it out to China then the citizens suffer just like here in the USA. Gov. Needs to be giving us a check each year for what they sell out of the earth here. Only the Gov.officals get kickbacks. It's theft in all sense.

I live in Toronto and ive been around Canada. In all the cities of Canada, it is way way worse than 10 years ago. I don't recognize it anymore. Drugs, crime, and cost. It sucks right now.

Columbia didn't back down, they had no problems with the way president Biden were sending their citizens back. Colombian Air Force plane took them back. Trump with his mask distruction of theatrics. Now CNN is is kissing Trump ring. No wonder Jim Acosta resigned, he stood firm in his principles a man with integrity.\nFentanyl comes from China not Canada, USA drugs and gun problems spilled into Canada.

You can't force Indian to adopt your culture for drugs and stupidity,\nYou can also adop accepting others as they are,\nBc canada is multicultural based.

No, politics in Canada is not good. Just that comment referencing Republicans is an example in and of itself.\nHealthcare is good, used to be better, and is getting worse.\nCrime is rampant in Ont. \nHomelessness is high and rising with job losses, inflation, drugs. Foodbank lineups have more than doubled.\nThere are lots of police and they are armed.\nThey ate so busy with rising crime that they don't pursue other illegal crimes \nWhere is a lot of wonderful about Canafa, but it has gotten worse.\nWe are enjoying the end of the thread of beautiful Canada. But for future generations, Canadians seem to not care.

I guess if canada did this we would have no cab drivers no one to work at tim horton's or mcdonald's suddenly surry would be empty and we would have less drugs and crime

More illegal guns, drugs and immigrants come to Canada from the USA. Do Americans not know how to fact check?

Why can't you just stop till you minimize the numbers..heller..The USA and Canada can no longer take in immigrants. We have our own issues, like drugs, homelessness, high rents...too much to list

It wasn't just about the border, but the border was important. He also wants canada to manage ports and drugs. Also canada needs to meet its 2% commitment to nato. \nThat's how we avoid tariffs

I don't care if Canada shut down all the illegals and drugs, I as an American tax payer am irrate that we are subsidizing Canada 200billion a year, not anymore

I'm all for helping Mexico and Canada so citizens don't need to come to the USA over time but both countries must know that they have to do their diligence to make sure people that are not legally in their countries use that country as a pass through to the USA. I'm all for the USA, Canada and Mexico work together to stop the illegal drug cartels and gangs.

The new population loves Canada and doing drugs and being homeless is shameful and redicules. The immigrants work and make it happen so whats the problem drugs and apathy

Canada has no housing, no jobs and no doctors. Too many immigrants are destroying the country. Too many people too quickly. Now the cost of living is unaffordable, homeless people are everywhere, crime wave, drug epidemic. We don’t have the ability to accept more people there’s nowhere for you to live. I suggest you stay home. Please stop destroying our country.

JT created this mess. But more than students people like Jagmeet have helped legalise illegals, who later joined khalistani criminal truckers business to ship in drugs and guns from south americas and entered the car jacking business while bolstering the criminal khalistanis. They have subverted canada, infiltrating the border police , politics and internal safety while they let loose a wave of crime. Nijjar himself was involved in all this and was gunned down by opposing gang. These gangs bolster Jagmeets constituency and help finance his politics.

What does Canada look like and feel like? Do you mean white?\n\nSo if you’re not a white immigrant do you disfigure the Canadian image?\n\nShows Canada’s true colours. Hate and intolerance. He called a Hindu god a “monkey man god”.\n\nA large number of white Canadians on drugs and homeless, but no Indians there. That’s the immigrants fault?! \n\nStop promoting hate!!

And who was selling a massive amount of FETYNAL enough to kill every Canadian 3 x over was a Middle Ages Indian lady running a drug gang imp that is all over Canada. They are employed at the border, do the trucking, now work in every fast food joint, store and don’t even speak English. Like they weaponized this term of being racist if you don’t comply with your culture, livelihood and country being eradicated

I never see Indians or asian people begging for money , they are not homeless or self induced drug addicts , most of the immigrants pull their own weight , quit whining about how they dont belong here ,they didnt come here and kill the natives pillage and plunder the resourses, we learned absolutely nothing ( Europeans) coming from Europe , kill the natives and steal the land , oh so charming ,your proud of that ? On a positive note we in Canada didnt enslave the black people,we do welcome people who have no where to live had there homes bombed blown up family and friends killed . You get the point . I lot of immigrants open up there own buisnesses maybe some are jealous of their prosperity?

Not a single train from the USA was inspected by border services. Gravey train for smuggling illegal immigrants, terrorists, guns and drugs into Canada. Wake up Trudeau

According to statistics, there are over 10 million undocumented migrant within the u.s. border compared to just 30 thousand in Canada. Also, nearly all the guns used in violent crimes in Canada are registered in the u.s, and Trump said Canada is to blame for migrant and drugs. Something sounds fishy.

Immigrants like Indians are not leaving,they are leaving India for Canada,but yes, some BORN Canadian are leaving for the USA because of rising criminal activities - Robberies, Drugs,car theft money laundering Job crisis. All Indians are working 50/ 60 hrs. Every job in Canada are taken over by New comer Indians.

Canada is the Fentanyl Capital of the world. Canada has become a mass-producing hub for Fentanyl and other drugs. Vasi is wrong in downplaying the drug crisis in Canada

I wonder why rental units are so expensive that Canadian's are being pushed out to the filthy streets. Oh, how evil Liberalism is. Liberals creatate greed and greed destroys a country. The liberals want to pacify us all by giving us endless supplies of drugs while they destroy what Canada once was. Everywhere now since the liberals created covid lock downs is filthy and ridden with the homeless. Shame on all of you liberals that helped destroy Canada

They are illegal and should NOT be accepted as Canada and USA have already their own problem of homeless, drugs , jobless and hungers !!! They should all back to their country of origin !!! NO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS !!!! THEY BREAK THE LAWS BY COMING WITHOUT PROPER DOCUMENTS !!!! ???

Its sour grapes, Indians have been going to Canada for 100 years, granted some cities are expensive, but hard work has never hurt, most of what is being shown applies in the USA as well. \nMost Indians do not live on the streets where drug addicts live, the video simply gives a impression that Canada is bad, well just dont come, stay in India and stop complaining, all Indians want the might Power Passports, and Canada has that, so nothing is going to stop the smart Desi.

I believe that lack of health care in the U.S. stops many Canadians from even considering moving and working in the U.S. It may take longer to get medical care and treatment in Canada, but everyone is entitled to it. About 30 yrs ago we all paid into it, at our jobs. Not anymore. I believe employers may still be paying into it, but I think now it is just paid for with our taxes. So even people that do not work or are retired, each and every person is allowed it - if you live here.\nThere is also some Dental Care provided for some Children. Very recently,free Dental care is provided for people over 65. It is very new, so I do not know a lot about it yet. Also some drugs too are free for those over 65 too.\n\nPersonally I do not even want to visit the U.S because it seems like a very dangerous place.

Canada and it's government are heading the wrong direction. Just seeing the many many YouTubers talk about the homelessness and drug issues and the government not doing anything about it. And all they care about is transgender rights! What's wrong with them?

The Canada/USA border is a bigger risk to Canada. More drugs come into Canada from USA than the other way around. And almost ALL our crime guns come from USA. Our border has been an issue for Canadians for many many years. It’s stupid that they are flipping it, the other way around, but whatever it takes to get it fixed!

Wonder why we don't hate towards Phillipinos, Taiwanese, Vietanamese, Japanese immigrants. How many of these other immigrants have been making fake licenses, paying money to get truck driving license, pooping on beaches, horrible civic sense, drug war, Khalistani nonsense, scam galore, changing Canada into a low trust society just like India. The list just goes on and on. Thank you India

The only problem was, for the past 20 years people of Canada and the leaders have de-activated the mathematics cells in their brains, or there was a localized numbness in the quantitative cells portion of their noodles up there. As a result they didn't understand what 99% Canadians were making per month after taxes (just simple numbers its not their fault), and the real estate mafia and grocery conglomerates started adding drugs in the foods of retail chains deteriorating the math part of the brains of Canadians further, now after 2 decades of such dedicated work by these humble bodies, everybody started waking up and discussing everywhere like these two non-native English speaking reporters ?????? ITS A JOKE NOW

Are you kidding me. Are you not in Canada right now. Canada is now the most poor country in the World. Immigration has gone to the roof. No housing. Rents and forget about buying a house in BC, AB, Quebec, Ontario. High unemployment, Inflation is high and going up more. We also do not have a military defense system and the U.S. is tired of Canada not spending money to meet their responsibility as a Nato country. Many Canadians are leaving the country permanent. Investors and businesses are pulling out. Canada is trillions in debt but keep printing more money (toilet paper). Canada has gone downhill significantly over the past ten years. Born Canadians and legit immigrants having to go through a rigorous immigration process are very unhappy and cause conflict. Besides all the different ethnicities cause unrest and are ungrateful, daring the burn the Canadian flag, uttering death to Canada, death the US and Israel. These trouble makers have not intentions to assimilate into Canada's culture and are disrespectful to the Canadian government and it's citizens. Our youth are very unhappy and do not see a future for themselves yet have to work very hard and pay unbelievable high taxes. The minimum wages are only 15 bucks an hour which cannot sustain life here in this country. Please stop making false promises to foreigners to come here and be disappointed. This is not a country of milk and honey any longer but poor and enormous homelessness. Hunger, terrible health care, incredible post secondary tuitions and books. Now that president Trump has won the election he is going to place tariffs on Canadian goods and rightfully so. Russia is very interested in the Antarctica and should they or anyone invade Canada we got 3 days of ammunition. The food in AB is very bad for your health. Everything has pesticides, hormones, and by the time fruit and vegies arrive here from the US all the nutrition have gone. A extremely high cancer rate, young and old, diabetes, depression and other mental disorders are rampant. Our children and grandchildren do not have a future so why bother going to school or work. Our kids live on the streets, shelters, camping in the woods and using fentanyl and meth all kinds of dangerous drugs. The cities and small towns are full of used needles, pipes, and more paraphelia just thrown on the trails everywhere. The US will not assist Canada when a possible War 3 will occur, and we the people of Canada and the land are easy prey. If you do not believe me, just come visit RED Deer shelters and walk around on the trails, go to Vancouver but becareful because random assaults are happening every day, people living in tents, using the streets as toilets, drugs galore, even the police is unable to act nor arrest criminal activities caused by desperate people who need to survive. Canada's economy is about to collapse and fall into a recession. We have too many people coming in our country without checking their back ground and many criminals and terrorist groups are entering declaring refugee status whether it is true or not, we do not know. The people of Canada who work and pay highest taxes are used to house these newcomers and education, jobs, food and money. Our government take better care of these illegal people than their own people especially our youth. So please let us not pretend Canada is a land of opportunity and great. We have to vote for the right leader who will have a very difficult time and challenges to overcome if at all possible and make Canada Great Again!

Mexico needs us they’re our lapdog and the same thing goes for Canada. If they don’t put more effort in to stop illegals and drug trafficking than we’re going to force their hand. She’s probably paid off by all the cartels let’s be honest.

Canada is drug zombie land

Yes that's true and Jagmeet Singh is behind this conspiracy... Khalistanis and Palestinians want to take over Canada abd Trudeau allows them to commit crimes, drug mafia, carjackings, house invasions, stabbings...this is why Pierre and Conservatives must win upcoming elections, only rigging elections is the fear now

I'm doing just fine in Canada, where I've lived my whole life except for 7 years in Japan. Any difficulties people having comes down to the individual, not a systematic national problem. My rent in Vancouver is under $1000, because I haven't moved in 11 years. I have no debt, no car, no expensive lifestyle, no drug habit. I made good choices. Others have not.\n\nCanada is still a land of opportunity if you get a job, get your vaccines, live within your means and don't expect a 1950s style economy, anyone can do fine. Healthcare access needs improvement, but we had a pandemic. The whole world did. \n\nIf you feel like you can't make it in Canada, you have no one to blame but yourself. Everything is relative. And we are living in the safest, cleanest, most stable times ever. Certainly not the cheapest.\n\nCheers - an NDP/Liberal serial voter (and big believer in personal responsibility)

What about the ten of thousands entering Canada illegally at Roxham Road from the USA ?.. What about the illegal firearms crossing into Canada from the USA? and drugs!

wow this is just an opinion video of sorts, but guess i'm proud to live in montreal. i own the last army surplus store here. 1423 st laurent. i love montreal as a city, the food is second to none for all of north america. um, weather is full winter during dec to feb. i also live near magog in the eastern townships which is beautiful.\ni've been to pei, love it there, great beaches and very quiet. never been to BC, and living here, i would never visit the middle of canada, just flat and boring and drugs are a big problem and homelessness. cabot trail in ( i did it on bicycle) is fabulous. quebec city, amazing.\ni'm a proud canadian and surely there are far worse countries in the world to live in. but when i retire full time , it will leave for a warmer climate (snow bird) in the winter. not florida, too busy and not nearly as nice as the Caribbean, i go to Curacao 1 month every winter. perfect weather and being dutch has great food and is safe island and beaches are second to none........

DO IT! DO IT! DO IT PRES TRUMP. IF THAT 'S WHAT IT TAKES TO ACHIEVE YOUR PURPOSE, JUST DO IT! MEXICO GETS MONEY FROM THE UNITED STATES BESIDES IMPORTING SOME OF THEIR GOODS. THEY SHOULD HAVE NEVER ALLOWED ALL THOSE ILLEGALS FROM MEXICO AND OTHER VARIOUS COUNTRIES TO COME THROUGH THEIR BORDER INTO THE UNITED STATES. GANG MEMBERS, MURDERS, RAPIST, PLUS DRUGS AND WHAT HAVE YOU. THEY CAME IN THRU THEIR DOOR AND NOW THEY ARE GOING OUT THE SAME WAY THEY CAME IN. AND ALL YOU TRAITORS WHO SIDE WITH MEXICO OR EVEN CANADA, LEAVE WITH THE WHOLE LOT OF THEM!

Trump thinks of himself as a bully. He think Canada and Mexico are beneath the US. He will learn that these countries have backbone too. Unlike his suppoters, they recognize his lies and bullying. Mexico President is confident because she already has a deal with Biden. Trump is lying and claiming he made her back down. Not even knowing she and Biden worked together to slow immigration and drugs. He is the most uninform President ever. Always claiming he don't know people speaking on his platform. He has already started claiming things he did not do. Slow down at the borden, Biden. Economy doing better, Biden. Remember when he starts saying this is his economy, know he is lying. Biden's.

This is yes, Mexico has Mexico has killed a lot of people in the United States and make? Mexico was warned for years. Is Mexico's problems why these people are coming here? That's their people. How many people that has killed in the United States already and these borders? What are they talking about? Is they fault? It's not the United States fault. Canada is doing the same, then I do anything. They've been one for years and years and years and years. And they haven't done nothing yet. Still, American people are still dying from all these mamali's drugs. It's time that we put our foot down and stop thinking about the human beings that are dying instead of thinking about money. Money is not everything in life. It's just pays your bills.

Mexico isn't your backyard-it's your trade partner.\nThis relationship isn't charity; it's mutually beneficial. Blaming Mexico for substance use issues ignores your responsibility as the largest demand drivers. Treat Mexico like a partner, not an incompetent employee, and take responsibility for your share of the problem. Blaming Mexico for the fentanyl issue is like an alcoholic blaming the bottle shop, even junior is an coke addict Claudia Sheinbaum has more balls than Donald Trump. It's about time someone stood up to n Trump and promised him a dose of his own medicine. Well done Mexico. Trump claims to be a gifted negotiator, but all he is is a self-glorifying bully. Claudia Sheinbaum has more balls than\nDonald\nTrump. But it is not Mexico and Canada who has a drug problem. It is America:) Americans don't realize how much they have advanced and grown, and know nothing of their marvelous culture. My president is an award winning environmental scientist with MULTIPLE degrees. We got it right!\nViva Mexico ??
