the less africans the better atleast Mexicans work help economy

If you're colored, they pay less. It doesn't matter if you're much higher educated or skilled than those white dumbo's. Colored are the paria of their society.

Less traffic now lol

Black American, born to an indigenous black American and a LEGAL immigrant from Guyana, who served 13 of 20 of his years in the military on a green card before being sworn in as an American. I FULLY support this. I could not possibly care less about your colour or nationality. If you're here illegally, go home and either make your country better, or come back LEGALLY AND CONTRIBUTE once you get here. Period.

_Kudos Trump_ \nThis thing will help to boost indo-american friendship more and will also improve image of Bharat because these illegal immigrants are reason for disrespect of India as well but\n\n *Indian are leaving India because of Pollution, reservation, Unemployment, 74% false alligations of rape, fake dowry cases, crime & failure of judiciary system like things*\n\n1★ _India should deport bengladeshi, Myanmar immigrants Back to their country in place of _*_Kadi Ninda_*\n\n2★ Muslim are most illiterate community of India and They are 14% India's population but less than 2% of India's Army, and Bharat being 4th largest Muslim population country still not getting membership in OIC and the same Indian Muslim criticise & ab/use India's succesful community & ideology \n\n[Update2025 - Tax has been reduced]\n_Vande matram jai Hind_

Less energy is required to fix their country.

But you have to understand again in your Canada water video. Canada has a lot less population. That being taxes are higher in Canada but more land for your dollar. Less GDP do to a smaller number of people which also becomes a factor of Canada not making the 2% GDP to NATO. There's alot of factors on why Canada does what it does. It's not that we don't want to keep up with the rest of the world. It's that it's very hard to with such a small population.

That is a man with long hair and makeup, nothing more, nothing less.

Canada should reduce insurance, taxes , house price , grocery , Air Ticket , Gas price , food prices , vehicle prices , transportation, medical treatment less good talented Doctors , less jobs , no jobs , now difficult to get a job , all expensive now please make it less reduce God bless

I expect Trump to implement tariffs on the EU, after the election in Germany. If he did it before, the German voters might be reminded of how much sense it makes to be in the EU, which is strong enough to stand up to the US and its bully in chief. People might be less prone to vote for the party that wants to leave the trading block (AfD).

Putting 25% on Canadian items means American goods are 25% less than Canadian so who will buy from Canada? American goods will be cheaper and will boost the economy. Ordinary American will be better off.

Trudeau could care less about border security or illegal drugs. Now that terriffs are here, he acts like Canada is being pushed for no reason. What a pathetic man.

Canadas population is less than Cali. \n\nYou guys buy nearly every other product produced by America. \n\nAmerica doesn’t need your products tho. \n\nAlso just Cali, produces as much GDP as Canada does. \n\nY’all really think this is gonna matter in the long run? What if we impose 200% tariffs on Canada? What would they do?\n\nThey’d becomes the 51st state that’s what.

you nelgected the fact that h1bs typically arent *actually* paid the prevailing wage, since the DOJ doesnt investigate it whatsoever. its typically a modest 15% less than comparable natives in the same role, for tech jobs at least

Who cares. The military literally denies people who have legitimate skills, no health issues, and are perfectly mentally stable. Having a simple cannabis charge, 94 Asvab. Qualify for any M.O.S. and the most you can do is clean a shitter or work with oil because you would be a security risk. Which makes no sense to be able to work with oil for vehicles when you could immobilize a shit ton of vehicles... What do you think Im gonna divulge top secret material to the chinese or russians for a joint?\nIf people get denied for something like this.\nWho cares.\nAfter these past 4 years and what society has become in the US. Not a single thing I would fight for in this country.\n\nAt this point the way the LGBTQ Gestapo has harrassed people these past 4 years. You all deserve this shit and I could care less. You maybe would have more people supporting you if you actually represented honesty, fairness, integrity, and acceptance. Yet that was all a front for a hateful, toxic, lying cess pool. Me personally the way I have been harrased and lied about for years since Biden got elected by the LGBTQ Gestapo all because of people lying about me. I could care less. Let this sink in too. I would have stood up for anyone 5 years ago. Now I'd rather leave this country. Once my dog dies, I'm gone. Not because Trump got elected or any politician, because the citizens of this country make it great and well what I've seen the past 4 years is nothing I want to be around anymore. Nothing I'd fight for. \nThe constitution and foundations of this country are awesome. Yet at this point who cares when the people here are pack minded, easily psyop manipulated, sheep, who cant critically think.\nLeaving this dump of a society seems much better than fighting for it.

Border closure next, Canada recession in less than 5 days.... but it is Tuesday, plenty of time to announce an agreement...

I will help you because you turned blind.\n\nTrump followed the Putin doctrine.\n\n1: Ally with Oligarchs \n2: Paint a false picture about the world/brainwash people.\n3: now for the future (make Americans more poor) that way they have less power.\n\n4: Take the territories you like for legacy. (If Trump snatches Canada and Greenland) USA will be the biggest country in the world.\n\nCongratz The world now has one more dictator to deal with.\n\nHope this was what the voters hoped for.

Mexico has a female president? Hahaha, even Mexicans nowadays are less sexist and more progressive than Americans

Illegal crossings and fentanyl (less than 1% coming from Canada) are just excuses to justify the tariffs. His end goal is to bring revenue to the US by means of foreign taxation.

Sorry Canada that we chose a psychopath to lead us into the gutter. Hope this makes you less reliant on the U.S. who never puts its citizens first but instead the rich & corporations.

Less bone in the nose spear throwers,

As a Canadian, I know that the less than 1% of fentanyl brought from Canada to the U.S were all > Americans bringing it to the U.S. They need to crack down on their own people. We will NOT bow to a Bully, like the Republican party has done to their own disgrace.

WE ARE KINGS! ALL HAIL THE USA! \n\nUS citizens will pay less taxes if not none at all if trumps plan falls through! \n\nIf you want to send products here then you pay! ? \nIf not, then sell a lot less other places. If US citizens pay more for products than it doesn’t matter because we no longer pay income taxes! ????

Is this the beginning of the fall of America? A president who cared more for the rich and less of the common people. The cycle continues.

Let’s get this straight Canada sends 77% of their exports to the US and Mexico sends over 80% of their exports to the US. Who has the upper hand? We buy less than 20% from each country and we can build everything here. We will.??

It would be great if they have less children so it would increase the quality of living for the poor kids. Too many children and not enough food, clothers, education and so on.

How does he know it's less than 1%?

Canadians you did right. And we europeans will and should follow. American products will get expensive all over the world and sales will decrease. Then the MAGA guys will understand. Paying more at home, selling less into the world. Autsch, that will hurt.

Here is Michigan, many of us have family in Canada. \nI could not possibly care less about Mexico or China. But Canada ?

The problem here is MexiCan are net US exporter, while the US is net importer. Will MexiCan suffer yes, but they still keep the goods, while US will have less supply.

The dollar is going strong. US is drilling more oil & less depedent on canada. I never let the media dictate what i should think

A lot of us Americans remember learning about the tariff wars in history class that ended up in deciding fair trade was the better route. I fear we’re about to learn the same lesson again…\n\nAs far as the drug trade goes apparently the GOV doesn’t spend enough time on the internet because the cartels are no longer just in Mexico they’re in the USA and in Canada. They have learned the Canadian border is a lot easier to cross and they can get into BC pretty easily due to relaxed immigration policies In Canada.. they probably don’t actually know where the drugs are coming from or where they’re being manufactured entirely. The cartels are probably a step ahead of them at the moment. \n\nI can’t believe the auto industry lobbyists were not instructed to go full send on the detriment of the opposite position taken from the NAFTA. The only thing I can see is auto sales are slumping and maybe they can blame this on the tariff policy for massive restructuring. \n\nI kind of understand wanting to negotiate with Mexico because they probably buy less American goods than Americans buy Mexican goods (drugs excluding) but I’m guessing Canada is a better customer of American goods than Americans are of Canadian goods. Why would you want to upset a good partner, customer, and ally!? It’s Beyond my comprehension…. If Trump was really smart he’d convince some factories to actually invest in Mexico with cooperation from the Mexican government investing in efficient transportation from the manufacturing sectors to the American border and the coasts for distribution. This would likely really help their economy and change the whole dynamic of all the things Trump has issues with. Fix it at the source not try to treat the symptoms.

Higher inflation, loss of jobs, less produce and products, slower economy… good job President Bully, you did it all by yourself!

Trump's lifelong love for tariffs is not economically driven but to wield power. In most power plays in the private sector he got away with it and was able to stiff subcontractors and business partners with less resources and less criminal energy than himself. I hope other countries won't budge and give from the start the right answer to this wannabe fascist power drunken criminal.

I’m a proud citizen of the USA and a Republican no less. To the people of Mexico and Canada, please kick us to the curb. Our leadership has lost its way and is in desperate need for realignment. For the sake of all in North America, take care of this now, because apparently my fellow citizens cannot.

As an American, I didn't vote for this clown. What Trump is doing right now is showing the world that the US\nis getting weaker and is in decline. He is using his bullying politics with Tariffs that are harming his Ally\nin Canada and Mexico. This will backfire. Both Canada and Mexico can join BRICS, and flip the US the finger.\nWhy? BRICS is cheaper and more profitable. The US dollar is worth less now and is declining as we speak.\nThis is a sign of weakness and desperate measures.

Trump's corrupt. Just buy him off. Compliment his hair and tell him he's smart--it will cost you less. You are dealing with a child.

American here. I support Canada and Mexico boycotting our products. Less demand means lower prices for us. It's a win win for both sides :)

Don't they know authorities no less than Chris Cuomo, Bill Maher, AIC, Illhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib have saud America was never great? Ih yeah, add Big Mike too.

The story told by DJT is all BS. Less than 1% of illegal immigrants and fentanyl come from Canada\nInto the US.

I guess American won’t take any more vacations in Mexico and will assume less Mexican and Canadian foods.

Buy your stuff at a yard sale and drive a little less -- we can do this!!

It's only a matter of time before America pushes every country right into arms of The BRICS Nations. You can BET THE FARM if Canada and Mexico join BRICS China, Russia, and other countries will be invited to set up shop right on the Rio Grande in the South and Niagara Falls on the Northern border of the United States. America will LITERALLY BE SURROUNDED. If Panama feels threatened they will join BRICS for protection as will Greenland and every other nation on earth INCLUDING other international port locations. This is a disaster of BIBLICAL proportions to the US economy if the US loses the privilege to be served at just a couple of the strategically placed locations. This will hyper accelerate the balance of WORLD POWER from America to The BRICS GLOBAL MAJORITY and completely dismantle the influence of the UN. THEY WILL SANCTION AMERICA!!! Even Israel would abandon America once that happens because the money source would dry up in less than a couple years. BRICS now OUTGUNS America in GDP, PURCHASING POWER, AND MILITARY STRENGTH! They're are nearly 70% of the WORLD POPULATION (and growing) which means a draft is virtually GUARANTEED if ww3 erupts. China has just PUT THE WORLD ON NOTICE they are AHEAD BY GENERATIONS in AI, EV's, and technology FULL STOP! Canada, Mexico, Panama, Greenland, etc... have to be asking themselves is it worth it being Americas FOOLS???

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.

So wheres he get these bs numbers? Less than 1%?

I've never been embarrassed to be an American before, now I am. Just please remember a large majority of Americans DID NOT vote for him, a miniscule majority of people who voted, voted for him ( less than 1% of our population voted for him over Kamala )

This retaliation means that Canada and Mexico could care less about illegals letting in Fentanyl into the US. THEY DON'T CARE, and neither do you in the comments until your family members are victims of fentanyl. Isn't Trudeau supposed to be resigning?

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