Looks like Canada cut Fentanyl trafficking, how about the U.S.? ?

And to you Trumpers. There is a lot more fentanyl coming into Canada. Than there is going into the u.s. We tried to reason with Trump, but there’s no reasoning with an idiot.. Wanna play games Trump, let’s play games…

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.

Not buying American if I can help it. Not spending a day’s vacation in the U.S. as long as MAGAts are running the show. Not setting foot in a red state ever again. MAGAts, should you come north of the border, I suggest you not slip and reveal yourselves as such; for you will not be greeted as friends. 14:33

Trudeau speaks the Truth. This American stands with Canada, Europe and Ukraine. The current U.S. President and his administration has betrayed the American People, our Friends and our Allies.

GO CANADA...STAND UP FOR US ALL...APPARENTLY U.S. CONGRESS AND CITIZENS ARE UNABLE TO STAND FOR THEMSELVES....BOYCOTT THE FELON

The U.S. leadership is “lying through their teeth” about fentanyl concerns motivating the trade war, aka Trump and Nutlick

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.

U.S. American here. GO CANADA! The sane ones of us down here are with you!

here are some examples of tariffs Canada applied to U.S. goods prior to Trump's presidency:\n\nDairy Products:\nMilk: Approximately 270%\nCheese: Around 245%\nButter: About 298%\nPoultry and Eggs:\nChicken: Up to 238%\nEggs: Around 163%\nOther Agricultural Products:\nSausages: Approximately 69.9%\nBarley Seed: Around 57-57.8%\nIndustrial and Consumer Goods:\nSteel: Around 25%\nAluminum: Approximately 45%\nCopper: Around 48%\nCars: Approximately 25% (though this may vary depending on specific trade agreements)\nTVs: Around 45%\nHVAC Systems: Approximately 45%\nVacuums: Around 35%

Trudeau didn't mention the 23% carbon tax coming to Canada April 1st. On top of the other carbon tax increases. Make that make sense! U.S lucky they dud not implement this garbage under Biden.

What have u.s become, trump is shameful!!

I understand that U.S. needs to balance its books, but that doesn't mean forcing others to pay in an no-one-wins scenario.

The U.S. Fuhrer wants to make the U.S. 3rd world.

The U.S. didn't launch a trade war. Trump did. He doesn't represent the will of the people. He represents a small slice of our population. Sad.

Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!

Trump is destroying our relationships with our allies. Who are we going to trade with? He is doing good with cutting costs and fraud in the U.S. Butt with Trump embarrassing the U.S. with our allies siding with Putin a murderer and dictator, makes it look like he is also.

This is going to hurt AMERICANS the most, let's state facts and not sugar coat. And of course Canadians will hurt too, but that's on U.S poor move to attack alleys.

Interdiction is a nobel cause, but cannot work. History shows this to be true.\nIf the market is there, it will be supplied until those that desire it are either gone or no longer buy it.\nI support Canada over my own U.S. because thats what i believe is right.\nPull the band aid off fast, close the border, all import/exports shut off.

100% tariffs on Tesla, 25% tariffs on all energy exports, open trade with the E.U., Asia. Time to isolate the U.S. internationally. FAFO

The U.S. is looking for new partners...Good Luck with RUSSIA...Putin will eat Donald for breakfast...

The U.S. didn’t do this, Trump did.

Meanwhile TRUMP ON TRUTH SOCIAL -\n\nPlease explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!\n\n????

Reconsidering our U.S. travel plans like so many others we know.

Sanction the U.S.‼️????

canada is terrified because they know THEY will suffer, not the u.s.! what goes around comes around haha

U.S. citizen whose ansestors on both side of my family came to this land in 1635. Trump is mentally ill. Get him out!

GREAT!!. The whole world needs to stand up to this disgusting, bullying, ignorant, demented fool in the White House and his spineless quislings in the U.S. Congress. These tariffs are about nothing other than Trump's need to bully and exact retribution against everyone who he thinks has screwed, cheated and disrespected him, which in his mind is just about everyone in the world except Putin.

It aint about no Fentanyl. Trump said he wants to bring Canada to its knees to beg to become a State? All Canada has to do is announce trading in another currency for exports to sink the U.S.

This is what you get putting inadequate, twice impeached, treasonous, convicted felon, loser in office of President of the U.S. . \nThat what Comrade Trump does Dumb and Dumber.

G7 Country\t2024 PPP-adjusted GDP\tShare of G7 \n?? U.S. \t $29.2 52% \n?? Japan\t $6.6T\t 12% \n?? Germany\t $6.0T\t 11% \n?? France\t $4.4T\t 8% \n?? UK\t $4.3T 8% \n?? Italy\t $3.6T\t 6% \n?? Canada\t $2.6T\t 5% \n? G7 Total\t$56.6T

America is not a country. North America is three countries. The U.S. is a country. Stop being the arrogant red neck people with no idea of what you're talking about. Inflation is good and poor people need to get a job.

Here is a list of tariffs Canada Imposes on U.S.\nGoods:\n- Dairy Products:\n- Milk: 270%\n- Cheese: 245%\n- Butter: 298%\n- Poultry: 238%\n-Eggs: 163%\n- Barley: 160%\n- Wheat: 94%\n- Sugar: 265%\n- Peanut Butter: 295%\n- Rice: 150%\n- Vegetables: 100%\n- Fish Products: 100%\n- Lumber: 20%\n- Shoes: 30%\n- Cocoa: 30%\n- Metals: 25%\n- Wool: 30%\n- Tobacco: 100+%?

Trudeau is not very smart. He says there are no winners in a trade war. If he decides to have one, it is the U.S. who is easily going to come out on top. This may be the preparation to do what's right. He knows President Trump is right. If they charge 15% tariff so will we. That's only fair. We aren't charging more, just lets be on a level playing field.

As a U.S. Army veteran who proudly served this country, my love for America and unwavering respect for the Constitution drive me to speak out. What Trump did in that meeting with Zelensky wasn’t strength, it was weakness disguised as tough talk. Pressuring Ukraine to negotiate from a position of desperation only empowers Russia and signals to the world that U.S. commitments mean nothing.\n\nTrue leadership isn’t about catering to dictators or throwing allies under the bus. It’s about standing firm for democracy, national security, and the principles this country was built on. If we let billionaires and politicians treat global conflicts like a business deal, we’re betraying everything generations of Americans fought and died for. I won’t stay silent while our country’s integrity is sold off for personal gain. America deserves better.

What's kept Canada's financial & real estate bubble going until now was 1) Chinese money-laundering, 2) federal money-printing, and 3) mortgage fraud & risky banking practices. \nWhen this bubble-on-a-bubble-on-a-bubble bursts, it'll be many times worse than 2008 in the U.S.

U.S. already has a 51st state...\n\nit was founded in 1947 and located over in the _LEVANT._\n??

Criminal Illegal Aliens. Not 'migrants'. Victims of police brutality are getting compensated in millions. \nSo why not apply the same approach to crimes committed by illegals?\nLet's keep the DIMS busy this year. \nVictims of crimes committed by Illegal criminal Aliens living in the U.S \nshould file a $50 billion class-action lawsuit against agencies at all \ngovernment levels for failure to enforce existing laws. \nProactively seek legal advice and engage in wholesale activism on the political front

My family has lived in Canada for several generations. My grandpa moved here from Italy and he started a large masonry company and become successful. But as a college student, I'm the 5% minority. Everyone else is from the third world, especially India and China. Our culture has been completely destroyed and replaced. Plus tens of Billions of dollars is being donated to them, and the aboriginals to fund their drugs and alcohol. There's thousands of very high homeless people wondering the streets, all funded through welfare. The cost of living has sky rocketed. I am moving the the U.S. I want to be with my own people! Multiculturalism has failed!

I’m part of that brain drain from Canada to the U.S. Having dual citizenship made that easy, and while I miss so many things about Vancouver, I was being totally squeezed between expensive housing and very poor income outlook. There were director level positions that were offering less than my mid level role; not a good look. Down south, I was able to jump income (not considering the exchange rate) 200% in two years, and I have far better career prospects. \n\nIt’s not great. I will always be a Canadian at heart.

Because our Government here was in Lockstep with Biden soon this filthy liberal regime will be gone just a little behind the U.S

It is embarrassing that we are allowing these criminals not only into Canada but allowing them to go into the U.S

Name ONE country beside the U.S. that would allow this to happen without firing a shot?

This channel is 150% b.s,But the fact of the matter is guns and drugs come free flowing into Canada from the U.S daily,and that problem is much worse.Since Trump got into office Americans have been flooding Canada's border,I don't blame them.If they are taking planes to Canada, then crossing,the handouts in the US must be amazing

Tyler, I’m surprised. Canadians are more outraged about gun violence in the U.S., especially against children, than Americans are?! Killing children ANYWHERE in your country should make you crazy angry, and insist on changing the gun culture! Insane!

Yeah meanwhile how many buses did Mayor Adams send up here to Roxham Rd to infest us? I Agree the Northern border does need a wall like the one seperating the U.S. and Mexico. Every country should have a wall securing their borders.

How arrogant to claim concern for Palestinians, then your next words suggests that they leave their own land to assuage the desires of a rogue Jewish state and the U.S.?

You are full of crap - Canada has better control over its borders. It’s the U.S. has a problem with its borders. AND Canada put controls on the border before Trump’s bullying and threats. Get your facts straight.

COMPLETE BULLSHIT. Trump is sending busloads of illegal immigrants from NYC and dropping them off at the Canadian border because that's cheaper than legally deporting them. This clown has them going the wrong way. They are counting the illegal immigrants Canada caught and is sending back to NYC by bus. MAGA idiots trying to make Trump the Frump look good.\nWhat these American geniuses should be looking at is:\nD. J. Trump has been a valuable asset to the Russian services for 40 years?\n\nAccording to former Soviet agent Yuri Shewrew, who moved to the U.S. in 1993 and obtained U.S. citizenship, Donald Trump was classified by the KGB as valuable services for forty years. Szłowie, former KGB Major, is currently one of the most important sources in Craig Unger’s book. “The American Comsar.” In addition to this thread, the book examines the president’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, a U.S. financier, who died in 2019.\n\nUnger claims that Trump first interested the Russians in 1977 when he married his first wife, Ivana Zelnickova, a Czech model. At that time, he became the target of a spy operation supervised by Czechoslovak intelligence in cooperation with the KGB. Three years later, when Trump opened his first major Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York City, he bought 200 TVs from Siemon Kislin, a Soviet immigrant who co-owner of the electronic company Joy-People at Fifth Avenue. According to Szedema, Joy-People was controlled by the KGB, and Kislin worked as her agent and selected Trump, a young, growing businessman, as a potentially valuable intelligence.\n\nWhen in 1987. Trump and his wife visited Moscow and Leningrad for the first time, the future president held many business meetings, including KGB officers. According to the Sędzim, Russian officials who perfectly identified the narcissism of the interlocutor and his psychological and intellectual weaknesses led a real “offensive of charm”, flattered him and emphasized that his personality made a huge impression on them. They suggested that such a man should deal with politics, that only people like him can change the world. According to Szbla and Unger, Trump was the perfect target for recruitment in many ways, especially because of vanity and narcissism.\n\nTrump almost immediately “entered” a new role, i.e. “joyfully parroted anti-Western propaganda.” Shortly after his return to the United States, he began his efforts among the Republicans to nominate for his candidacy for president, and even organized an election rally in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On September 1, 1987, he published a full-page ad-icing in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Boston Globe, in which, among other things, he accused the Alliance of the U.S. and expressing his skeleticism to the U. According to Trump, America should stop paying to defend countries that can defend themselves. Such actions caused real euphoria in the USSR. Trump has already made the same the same theses as president.\n\nTrump's victory in the 2016 election. The Russians accepted with satisfaction. Special investigator Robert Mueller did not detect a conspiracy between members of the Trump staff and the Russians, but revealed at least 272 contacts and 38 meetings with people linked to Russia. The storm told The Guardian that he was disappointed with the investigation because there were no counterintelligence aspects of Trump’s relations with Moscow. According to Unger, Trump was definitely an asset to the Russian services, and his book “will start where Mueller ended.”\n\nSource: The Guardian of 29.01.2021.\n\nMelanija Knavs [now Melania Trump] was born in Novo Mesto, Yugoslavia, now part of present-day Slovenia, on April 26, 1970. Her father Viktor Knavs first worked as a chauffeur, and he eventually sold car parts for a state-owned vehicle manufacturer as he made connections with the League of Communists of Yugoslavia, the national communist party.\n\nWhy do you think Trump is so anti-Ukraine? Putin also has sex tapes showing Trump with adolescent girls in Russia, and Trump also owes Putin billions of dollars.

Umm hold on if they are traveling from Canada into the U.S. Where is U.S. border security on this. They dictate who gets in and who doesn't far as their country. How is that Canada's fault? We seized litterarly 30 million worth of drugs and firearms in first week of better border security measures. Coming from the U.S. Don't hear Trump saying anything about that being a problem?! Too much none sense not enough realistic facts being stated via media on the U.S. side.
