The reality is: the US has reached a record high trade deficit with Canada. This deficit has grown steadily since 1976 (today it is just shy of $100 billion - meaning the US purchases $100 billion more worth of goods from Canada than Canada does from the US). The US imposing tariffs on Canada is a tactic to incentivize US companies who import goods from Canada to move manufacturing/production sourcing back to American soil. This promotes investment and expansion into the US economy. It will also incentivize Canada to commit to investing in the US economy. This would be a negotiation move by Trudeau: we (Canada) will commit to purchasing $25 billion (for example) dollars more of goods from the US if you agree to reduce the tariffs you've imposed on us to blank (maybe 5%). This is likely the end goal Trump is aiming for in the long run.

I hope some of those who voted for Trump maybe maybe finally open their eyes ! Trump wants to run the country like a dictator like he ran his businesses he bankrupted

thoughtful speech, now wait for the kneejerk bleat from Trump with name-calling and lies. Then Graham and the toadies run to Fox to swear fealty. Feeling so great again.

I thought this man run and fixing the economy and making it better for the American people not making it worse for us WTF its like a ?????stock

It's the truth. Americans better rewatch the Movie Red Dawn where Russia takes over America. It's happening. Putin is running America through his Best and highest paid Agent. I honestly can't believe it.

Would love if Justin Trudeau could run for US president.

Indians have used Canada like a flop house. Indians go to diploma mills and try to use it as a backdoor to stay in Canada. They take over Canadian communities and try to turn them into India - making the locals feel like foreigners in their own home. They're also involved in a lot of crime. This includes: auto theft rings, synthetic ID/credit fraud, gun and drug smuggling, and one of the largest gold heists in Canadian history at Toronto Pearson airport. Americans have stated that the top nationality entering the US illegally from Canada is Indian. The drugs they are complaining about entering the US from Canada are almost entirely brought in by Indian truck drivers (Google it and find many examples). A Fentanyl super lab in BC capable of producing over 95 million lethal doses that was busted was run by an Indian. This is now threatening trade with our main trade partner as a trade war has just started. ENOUGH ALREADY! Indians need to be sent home, and banned from entering Canada.

First rule is don't have idiots running the government of the country

To anyone wondering.... This is what happens when you elect a leftist high school drama teacher to run your country....

@EconomicsExplained, would you consider running in our next election? You make more sense than most of our politicians.

It's what happens when Liberals run a government. Was all predicted years ago.

Betrayed? Excuse me! There was no prior agreement that the visa gravy training was going to forever run. Things change, deal with it, don't play the victim! Glad Canada has put a stop to the choo chooing.

Why can't Marc speak properly?\n\nCan he not form one cohesive sentence without having to pause?\n\nImagine how refreshing it'll be to have competent individuals who actually know what they're doing/talking about running the show.

Fuck that, trust me when I say they haven’t got much to give to the US, just more mouths to feed when we can’t feed our own veterans on the street or give them a place to stay.\n\nSorry but sucks to be born in other parts of this world. That’s the reality of life and the quicker people understand that richer or better having people don’t owe anything to anyone for being born in a better place, the world would be a better place \n\nInstead of running from the problem why not grow balls and change your country

Wait, why would Canada control border security for the US? Shouldn't American Border Patrol and ICE control America's own borders? At the 3:24 point, are you implying that Canada should control the border for the US? I don't think Canada expects - or even wants - the US to run its borders, but you think Canada should?

it's going to work. Canada wont go to sell in EU or China it's over seas way to long and most of the times still has to go thru the US lol it's to costly for one, and EU just wont cover all the cost, forget the logistic nightmare. US is like a 2 hour drive away!! big big difference. So simple, trumps tariffs will make Canadien companies sell there product higher so they dont lose to much profits. what does that do? US wont buy! then companies shut down, people loose their jobs. very simple. Many go on welfare for a year, when they run out older one or less educated one cant find jobs etc...Trump will kill Canada plain and simple. that's it that's all. He want our resources and will do it, we are done for. this will also kill truck drivers and many many many side workers. until we are part of the US.

Unreal what Joe Bidumb did the Demorats are the true enemy within look at the cities they run assisting and abbeding illegals as Bidumb puts illegals first & Americans last throw him in jail who caused all this devastation Bidumb is the true Trojan horse within our country.

while the Criminals who are running our government in America are reaping all the benefits. Please give us a break Cash! stop supporting this criminal administration either in NYC or USA that trump is stopping

transgender's in the military runs the risk of distraction. people are going to whisper, people are going to laugh. If you're a guy and look at a women, but later find out that women's really a man, that can be traumatizing.

People are realizing they’re being invaded and it’s making them angry. Hey if we were in his country in the millions, running 90% of all their stores, sleeping with their women, they absolutely would have started killing us.

Had someone the other day tell me “we need not block anyone there is tons of land here. “\nPeople have not ever taken basic economics nor do they understand how a country runs. What’s the point of having a country? If there is no borders it’s not going to operate in the long run. If there’s thousands upon thousands upon millions of people not paying taxes eventually the country will go bankrupt. I don’t care if tons of people come here but why are all these people leaving everything to chance by not having the correct paperwork??

Canada is under a vicious systemic attack, especially anything related too family culture. You did the right thing! ..run baby run!. Most Canadians are simply to domesticated to understand the sofistication of whats presently taking place by people and parties within. Canada will likely not survive as a country following these events. Most reading this will also not understand the nature of the present situation for some time.

If u legal, u will be fine! If u are illegal, Run away for ur life before they get you! ?. Trump 2025 ❤❤

Okay how do we know the human trafficking gangs aren't running these open boarders activists groups?

WHO is still funding and running these buses…..???!!!

wow, the bullsh.t runs deep with donny dump and co. cash, i didnt think you were owned. 16,000..... come on man....

Those bus runs are our Taxpayers money being used and it’s stolen.

this comment section makes me so sad it’s such an example of a lack of empathy with have in america do you think all these people would be doing this running in a fucking mob with their children if they weren’t absolutely desperate. don’t you think they’re probably well aware that they won’t be able to actually beat armed militia and were doing this in protest??? can’t we critically think what drives people to do the things they do and then structural address them!!! hate will never create prosperity for all!!!

Use to hunt around Rouses Point NY\n There are ground sensors along the border area . Cause we'd run into border patrol now and then.

Many migrants are running away fromUS to Canada ?

GLAD I DONT LIVE IN NEW YORK !! NOTHING BUT IDIOTS AND CRIMINALS RUNNING THE STATE

Cause a Canadian government sucks and will not do anything about this. We need Trump or somebody like him running in Canada.

I guess that’s where the got the phrase “run for the boarder” remember Taco Bell use to say that on their commercials lol ?

Problem is Trudeau and the people running New York are global communist ?

Trump and his bad ass cabinet is the best this country has ever seen... actually he should get to run again let's admit it .. he's George Washington 2 . 0..

Indians..not obey many rudes here like working uber delivery bring your dam ebikes large wheels in TTC and riding it inside restricted ttc area and platforms wanted to run into our Canadians and hurt us? No way!\nGO BACK to your dam country! India???

This problem is worldwide. Japanese people are furious with the Japanese government open and freely giving asylum and welfare benefits to rich Chinese citizens. We as Japanese people are struggling while they have high end jobs and we get paid in peanuts and constantly getting taxed for everything! A bag of rice costs ¥4000+ outrageous! As I watch the world crumbling I sense this can all change but change starts from within your own country!Take care of your own citizens first! Stop running away stop disrupting and disrespecting other countries citizens and their hard earned money.

Could be worse, here in Europe we re being over run by Muslims from the Middle East.

Deport them or become like over run Europe.

Meanwhile, your average us citizen is struggling, not knowing what will happen to their livelihood, and when it does, where would they run to?

New yuck ? is run by a bunch of dip shits?

Where I grew up in California a young Deputy Sheriff, who was a legal immigrant from Fiji whose dream it was to work in American law enforcement, was murdered by an illegal alien while he was on duty. This happened within the last few years. The killer had had multiple run ins with the law and had been released from jail and never had to pay for his crimes and was never deported. During the day of the murder the killer went on a rampage and harmed several other people. The deputy who was killed left a wife and a baby. Why people want to leave these rotten criminals in our country is beyond me. It just tells me they don’t care about the people in this country.

I say the USA should sell out State by State to Global Police operated by the UN Councils. Then people could come to the USA and go home under a Joint Task Force Flag and still be a democracy while capitalizing on the Global Merger and spend the US Defense Budget on monitoring the Morality of the Government that invested in the State Ownership. It would be the USA and the State would be International. Also, immigrants coming here now are part of an Orthodox Holy War and will run out of people soon because they are focused on living out their Last Days...high ?

They are running to the US boarder because there up to be deported from Canada. It's a 2 way problem people and products (gun's) are coming into Canada from the US.

when they run out of money they will come crawling to trump lol

The leftist liberals that run NYC have their brains in their ass!!

My issue is the invasion will never completely stop. They will try anything to get back in here. There are so many millions of people who want to come here and they will never stop trying. Deport and they just come back later. Dangerous criminals will always find money to facilitate getting back here. \nWe may need to take a large area of an unpopulated western state and turn it into a prison (and nice neighborhoods for all the employees needed to run everything) for anyone who enters illegally. If they are caught here illegally, they will spend the rest of their lives in that prison.\nMany would self-deport and never try to return.
