What immigrants are coming from Canada in large numbers?

As an American, I say Canada shut the hell up and prepare to be number 51?

Sounds like Canada had a true plan to work on border crossings and drug problem, while Trump wants to just attack and make up lies about criminals and numbers.

The number of countries around the world boycotting American products in support of Canada will really bite America. Canadians are done, we will not be bullied by our neighbours to the south, and free nations are watching. America has lost all previous respect it had on the world stage. America is not a decent and reliable friend, America can not be trusted to honour its agreement. We will fight back! Canad has never started a war of any kind, but we have never failed to fight back when attacked, and we have never lost a war!

Don't tell lie to people border was not safe look at the historic number in 2021, 2022, 2023 where people crossed border illegally from Canada that's only because of you Trudiot. you opened door for mass immigration like student, visitor and work permit. so, some people used those visas to enter Canada and crossed US border. I am Canadian and moved to US for work only because of this guy Trudeau who devalued Loonie in 10 years. Only Canadian lived better in Harper Era. You destroyed everything.

Canada l stand with you and that rest of the Democratic world. Unfortunately we have an idiot in chief who doesn't have a blanking clue on how to run a botega yet alone in the United States of America.\nTo yours truly the felon in chief your days are numbered the American people will make it a priority to remove you from the white house along with the Maga bootlickers that support your blank toosh . Trudeau Mad Respect to you a true leader in chief of the free world.

What's more disturbing than the actions of trump (Putin's puppy) is the vast number of Americans who support him. Ronald Reagan will be turning over in his grave thinking that the Republicans have gone Commie

Number talks CANADIANS

Yes, the number two in the Oval Office is Pence, and his words often come across as cheap, bullying tactics. Instead of offering real leadership or thoughtful discussion, he uses language that tries to intimidate and put others down. His approach often feels like he's trying to hold onto power by scaring people, rather than standing on solid ground with strong ideas. This kind of talk may work for some, but it only creates more division and gets in the way of real progress.\nThe biggest mistake was introducing tariffs without any backup plans in place. The bottom 60% of U.S. citizens will likely struggle to make ends meet in less than two years, stuck behind the barriers of these tariffs. The idea that South American countries might step in to help the U.S. seems unrealistic. More likely, the U.S. will find itself isolated, facing political instability—and to put it bluntly, a loss of trust—thanks to an overinflated ego and a sense of entitlement.\nCould the U.S. turn to African countries for their natural resources? It’s possible, but this effort probably won’t be successful. Most African nations, except for those in the Sahel region, are just beginning to recover from the effects of colonialism. Many are now building their own paths and are more likely to align with China’s influence rather than the U.S. Even if the U.S. tries to get resources from Africa, it will likely face challenges from both local resistance and growing competition from China.

Let’s talk about numbers Canadians !!! NUMBER TALK !!!

Now democrats come out to attack Trump for being a leader !!! \n\nLet’s talk about all the money they got USA ?? let’s talk numbers !!

Deterioration of relations? That's an understatement,\nAn increasingly large percentage of Canadians now see the United States as our enemy - 27% a couple of weeks ago. As of today, I expect that's up to at least 50%.\nPrior to November, that number would have been negligible. Pollsters never thought it relevant enough to ask before a few weeks ago.\nYou're running out of allies, America. Soon it will just be you and Russia.\nWhich, I'm sure, will delight Putin and his agent, your Felon in Chief.

This is just a sampling of what happens when you elect an official do the highest office in the land while this individual Donald Trump is Holden s official position as dog catcher is out of his ability. The issue on fentanyl, is a intoxicant that will not and cannot be defeated. This is a total failure on the government's inability to protect its own citizens that is their number one job.. The only solution that I have heard that remotely makes any sense is the Cato institute conclusion that the wisest route to go is completely legalization with age restrictions. While this may not be the desired outcome it's the only one that I see that makes any sense whatsoever it seems that when a solution like this offered so many individuals who have no gravitas in this matter will come back to the same nonsensical bulshit that they're going to stop the flow that is absolutely impossible. However we will continue on that course and we will continue to fail. The Cato Institute was initially funded by the Koch brothers a extremely conservative organization that gets together a group of the brightest and the best in trying to determine what is the best solution.the Koch brothers were the group that invented the tea party I would love for anybody who disagrees with this post. I would like anybody who thinks that this is a far-fetched idea ,all I ask is that if you disagree with the finding that it should be legal with age restrictions if you disagree I would like to hear a solution that you have in mind that you think is better than the Cato Institute finding. I am under the impression that you do not have anything that remotely resembles a solution to this terrible problem. Right off the bat, with uality control, you'll stop hundreds of thousands of deaths. All of the issues that are being dealt with are just so screwed up because we've already been through this before. After making a constitutional amendment to ban the manufacturing of alcohol it was reversed and I hope that the country realize that we cannot win this battle with the same mindset. The only reason why fentanyl is such a dangerous intoxicant is because there's no quality control. Also the cartels are not affected negatively \nBy allowing the government deal with this problem. the end result would be not only do you save lives but you also have put a very negative Spike through their heart of the cartel in the pocketbook. Incense elan musk & DOGE cost cutting measures since this War on drugs has caused over a trillion dollars and no 6:28 results. The DEA does not remotely live up to its mission statement and has failed every year since that policy was put in place. I would love to hear any feedback and a solution that is remotely possible.. let's hear some original ideas that the country would benefit from.. the ball is in your court.

The world is going to make Trump a 2nd class leader. Every country that stands for democracy shouldn’t let Trump fly into their airspace, or let him come to your country. The countries that have laws that don’t let felons into their countries should apply these laws to Trump, you need to show Trump that enough is enough, and you will not bend to his mafia style of governing. If he our you need to communicate it should be done over a secure video communication, and record it in case Trump threatens you, your country, or if he just goes off the rails in general. If he does threaten you, or your country, or goes off the rails you need to broadcast it to the world. There is strength in numbers, and if the US politicians won’t stand up to Trump, then the rest of the world needs to do so.

The same person who blocks peoples bank accounts talking about familys suffering! Less than half an ounce of fentnol siezed he says,So thats its getting through in high numbers!

The relationship between Canada and the US is because of Trudeau. He isn’t getting his way so he is making a huge mistake with his disrespect toward our Great President Trump. Canadians want Trudeau to step down. \nHow do I know? I have a huge number of relatives there. My mother was born there and my dad served honorably in the Royal Canadian Navy during the second World War.\nTrudeau is and always has been hateful toward Canadians. Canadians do not respect or like him. \nBy the way… we are boycotting CNN.

Man the bots on here are crazy. Cnn dont get these numbers look at the ratings they get a day

President Trudeau, Black America believes every word you're saying. We have always fought for this country even though this country has never fought for us. It is White America that is tearing down this democracy to maintain white supremacy. White America has done this. The numbers don't lie. Unfortunately, all Americans will suffer.

Trump pandering the the strategic directives of the Project 2025 playbook and its architects empowered by Oligarchs. Sadly it’s includes setting the world on fire to bulldoze and dismantle democracy! It is the only way they are able to live in a new USA that promotes their shocking policies of dictatorship. Brace yourselves globally! Imperialism is back courtesy of DJ Trump & his presidency. Resist you must! Remember who you are! Fight back! Mobilise your communities, it’s left to the people to take back the power! It requires strength in numbers. The world watches & supports & prays for you! ✊?✊?✊???????

The USA provides the weapons to the criminal organisations! They have the highest numbers of traffickers, according to their own Department of Justice report! They traffickers drugs into Mexico and Canada at a higher rate!

Talk is cheap on both sides, when the numbers come in , trumps tune will change, to many Americans will suffer as will Canada , yes this is a dumb move , we bled with you on the battlefield yet this is how you treat your allies ….

Dude is on crack if he thinks i'm gonna believe his numbers.??

We have been asking for years. Take a good look at the city’s and the numbers of family’s kids and adults have died yearly from this.100,000s have died a year. Lives and family’s have been destroyed and the crime that has come with it. We have been asking for years now they claim they are helping. We need to depend on Americans and America more this can be good for us more Americans buying and selling to Americans. All these countries have gotten the better deal with us for years. Now we want the better deal.Our tax dollars have gone to all these other countries now we say no more and everyone is anti American.

Bottom line we don't need shit from canada. Period. But they need a whole lot from us. Its time for these guys to pay for what they need. Usa is number 1. Other countries need us. We don't need them.

Trudo number one. The best.? . Trump ?

Please stop and try to calculate the number of handguns in the US before you threaten Americans......more people in the US support Trump than you.

F this traitorous thief. Hes Canadas number one sack of trash.

Canadians love Americans, there is family on both sides. Why is Trump being COUNTER PRODUCTIVE ?\nthis is negotiating ? what is the deal ? SPELL IT OUT \ndon't try and fool yourself or anyone with verbal crap > show me the numbers on paper, give references from reputable sources in USA. We like and need clarity. Details. Transparency.\npeople on both sides of the equation are intelligent and need the REAL DEAL > not bull.\nIt smells like Trump has not spelled it out. Is it a flip or a flop day ?

Huge number of people here in the UK boycotting all products from USA until trump is ousted

Canada, please just focus on your refugee crime first. and Chinese raising real estate price. that is number one problem. stop using tariff to cover up bad leadership led Canada to today’s crisis. tariff will only affect little bit but crime and rocket high house price.

He speaks with integrity-giving real facts and numbers. And not once tried to sell a fucking hat!

Unbelievable, the number of bots commenting here.

The actors and bots here are funny. It's time for Europe and Canada to pick up their end of the couch, cry as you might, numbers don't lie

I'm so sorry my fellow Canadians. Remember there is a great number of us who did not vote for this man.

Trump will spank this guys butt, same like he did with Zelenskyy. You cannot win a trade war with world's biggest economy (30 trillion +) and your number 1 exporter.

The USA has just 1/2 of the population Canada has 100 %. Make numbers.

Let me explain the trading relationship briefly that occurs between Canada and the US for context. \n \nCanada Has a LOT of natural resources, more than our domestic manufacturing base needs (Uranium fuel, Lumber/paper products, Steel and other metals, Fertilizer for farms...etc). Therefore we sell those raw materials to the states where they are manufactured into goods, which we then buy back. a LOT of American service companies like tech, media (And yes, even banks)...etc also operates in Canada as well. (For the auto sector the parts flip back and forth across the border like 8 times) \n \nThis relationship alone has the American economy see a large trade surplus with Canada, however there is another element to it: Energy. \n \nCanada is also home to a LARGE amount of really cheap renewable hydro power in the east, and a LOT of oil in the west, due to a lack of infrastructure we really can only sell that oil to the states and therefore it is done at a discount. America refines this cheap oil into gas and is a large part of the reason why American gas is so cheap. They use this energy to power the same factories mentioned above. (Oh and also the NE states import a lot of that clean hydro electricity for the same reasons) \n \nThe US Buys SO MUCH of that cheap energy from us to power your industrial base, that it swings the numbers on the trade balance into a small deficit for the USA. (41 billion out of a TRILLION dollars total trade, or about -4.1% of total trade so literally a pretty small deficit) It also swing back and forth every year so \n \nThen comes Trump. He wants Canada as a 51st state and own the entire continent, therefore he manufactures an excurse that our border is leaky and that migrants and fentanyl are flowing over. (In actual case migrants and the flow of Fent is about 1% the amount that's crossing at the Mexico border but he needs an excuse) \n \nHe therefore puts 25% tariffs on us. Those tariffs will hit Canada harder than the 2008 financial crisis just for scale. \n \nOh and also for the most part American Refineries literally cant process any other oil than ours or Venezuela's because its thicker so tariffs on our oil will also really increase the priced of energy in the states by a huge amount just for the LOLs. As we've seen during the post covid recovery, since gas is priced in to the supply chain at every step (Manufacturing, transportation...etc), any increase at the pump will snowball into higher costs for everything at the store, on top of the extra cost of the tariffs on consumers. (Since every step will need to add it into their markup.)

HE FORGOT TO MENTION THAT APART FROM CARTELS PROFITING , WHAT ABOUT THE AMERICANS THAT PROFIT FROM DRUGS . C.I.A. SELLS DRUGS IN AMERICA . AMERICANS SELL DRUGS IN AMERICA . POLICE SELL DRUGS IN AMERICA . DOCTORS SELL DRUGS AND PROFIT BIG TIME FROM DRUGS FROM ALL THE PATIENTS IT RECEIVES FROM DRUG OVERDOSES AND THE HIGH PRICE THEY CHARGE FOR MWDICAL ATTENTION . THATS A CARTEL OF ITS OWN INSIDE AMERICA . AMERICA IS THE BIGGEST CARTEL IN THE WORLD BECAUSE WE ARE THE NUMBER ONE DRUG CONSUMERS IN THE WORLD AND THE NUMBER ONE DRUG DEALERS ALL I SIDE OF OUR COUNTRY . . . DONT BLAME CARTELS FOR OUR PROBLEMS . BLAME OURSELVES . . .

One asterisk I'll put on the housing element and immigration:\n\nThe immigration probably would have been fine, but we made the inexplicable decision to place those huge numbers into the already hottest markets - the cities. We probably could have survived that rush better had we spread them into our less populous areas like the prairies, northern territories or smaller towns.

Trump stopped targeting Russian hackers. The US ordered cyber command to longer monitor Russisn hackers or to go after them. \n\nTrump ends the consumer watching agency that protected the US citizens from fraud and cyber fraud and the watching general who was tasked to monitor fake money scams like some bit coins which many are dark web money payments from crooks and money laundering. I wonder who this move helped? All of the inspector generals who were looking ok not the scam artist and corporate welfare wuuen Elon Musk. \n\nI was just hearing that gas prices are going up a dollar at least tomorrow, so you had better go and fill up. it's about all any of us can do at this juncture, is my guess. The tariffs are a tax on all of us, plus the oil we used to get from Canada is now going to China or Europe. I'd tend to say you all should be thanking a Republican. Prices up in groceries? thank a Republican. Inflation going up? thank a Republican. thousands of jobs lost. Thank a republican. higher gas prices? Thank a Republican. Don’t forget, thank a Republican, the switchboard number to the House of Representatives is 202-224-3121 be sure and call and let them know what you think. thank your representatives. Firing Veterans thank a Republican. Firing the people who care for the Veterans, thank Republicans. The cascading job losses can be attributed to Trump and his tariffs and the tariff wars. Maybe it will be a depression he will cause worldwide? Thank a republican.\nRuined our government and ruined our status in the world. Thank a Republican.

us and canada both babies, IsNotReal is the enemy, Free ♥???. 70% women and children, real number.

1% caught (remember that)... The actual number of fentanyl passing through your border is closer to 45% ...\nBased on Trump's force to push harder, made everyone cry..

I don’t care what no one say. It has never been done like this in American history with no president and all our presidents. We have 40 iCarly 44 president I do not call this guy a president. I do not give him the 45th or will I give him 47 I will say 44 and 46. I will always skip this guy because he’s not a president. No president act like a brat no president act like a female without no president act like a female without blood no president act like a kid without a tater tot no like a kid without some type of pacifier in his mouth and for the fact that in the first time in all our lives when your grandparents died, your great grandparents died your mom probably just died and then this is what we have as an American president and American economy and an American ministration never in my whole entire life. I seen this in part of an American history. I took the class I could I could You is never gonna find anything like this in American history until now and that’s why I say I don’t give a damn what they say. He only went into the presidency to cover his behind. That was it. He went into, not giving a damn if he was the worst he always gonna claim he’s the best but numbers don’t lie, sir numbers don’t lie Your fans might say whatever they don’t lie right now your fans are the same people calling the constituents yelling at they constituent ready to fight constituents because numbers lie, sir numbers don’t lie and it’s proven. You are the worst ever in American history. It’s proven that it’s proven that no matter what so good luck with all that hypocritical talk you wanna talk but there’s no way in hell I will vote for JD Vance no way in hell this administration would ever like recoverfrom what they have done to the American people rather vote independent Democrat then vote Republican the only way I vote Republican is Chris Cristi running for Republican for the White House if it’s not Chris Cristi I don’t fuck with no more Republicans, Chris Cristi or nothing

As an American, I'm GLAD canada is on the offensive. Trump doesnt care about the American people, all he cares about is money and numbers on paper.

Trump is not satisfied with dividing Americans. The mango moron is trying to divide the world. He's a Russian asset. We all know it. Trouble is brewing. We won't tolerate a dictator in this country. His days are numbered and freedom loving Americans will take him down. Buckle up Trump or FA and FO.

This is insanity. We've allowed an insane person to run our country. A mass number of Americans are simply wrong headed regarding what matters. This and many other moves will only make us weaker and poorer.

i probably have no business asking this question, because there's a number of people who don't care for Justin, but that seems to be the way it is with almost all leaders.\nMy question is this:\nDoes Justin Have To Go?\n??\n?️

Dismantling U.S. democracy day by day, losing democratic allies, letting a billionaire to performer unlawful things, bowing to the bloodthirsty dictator Putin—aren’t there enough red flags? Why aren’t Americans protesting in mind-boggling numbers? The streets should be full of protesters by now.
