Brother JamCan, this whole thing was predictable decades ago! I got to Canada in 1995 right after hell unfolded in the country of a thousand hills! I saw with my own eyes & felt from personal experience how great my adopted country was! However, not everything was rosy! I saw and experienced the "not-in-your-face" anti-black racism, whether politically, socially, and most def in the employment market! At the same time, the establisment (read white folks) was busy encouraging & promoting east indians to take up leadership roles in all spheres of the society, thus making them the "model minority" in the country! This mess was bound to happen, and in the end, this is what got us here! My feeling is that white canada is totally responsible for this, and they should stop crying on TV, roll up their sleeves, and clean up the mess! Peace Out!

🎉IRCC has discovered excessive abuse and fraud in the immigration system. Immigration is federal and they have the absolute power and rights to enforce the laws to cancel visas. The immigration system was abused and in a complete mess. Every country must fix their own citizens or country problems first before bringing in foreigners to make it worse. Sorry-the liberal government failed with its policies for the last 9 years how can we trust them now?😨

These immigrants were scheduled to leave anyway. They were well aware of it. So, it is not based on new immigration rules. The government tried to force too many people into the country, causing a spike in housing prices and many other problems. This then affected every Canadian. A lot are becoming even poorer. It is one of the reasons they had more tent cities and 2 million people going to food banks along with 2/3 of Canadians with only 500.00 a month after all monthly bills were paid. That's 2/3 of Canadians. The Convoy had released these figures over a year ago at CPAC. Proving that Canada is in a huge mess economically because of these Liberal policies. @minimaxmiaandme.4971 - I don't hide behind a fake name. The Supreme Court ruled in favor of the convoy or did you forget? The Liberals violated Canadians' Constitutional Rights to Protest. Which proves they are more credible than the Liberals. Now be man enough to show your real identity.

He’s resigning in disgrace because he messed up his country so bad. Why do we care what he says?

I wonder if we might make a shortcut in policy + create a border wall between New York City and the rest of the country. We could bus all the illegal aliens in the Northeast to New York City and let them have sanctuary there. Then just keep the whole glorious mess in the buroughs. Cut off all federal funding + let them live in the problems of their own making. Many New Yorkers act as though the world doesn't exist outside of the boroughs anyway.

jUSTIN you blew every China man you could, you trained their military they are a hell of alot worse than Russia. Did you forget COVID they unleashed on the entire world - your buddies. You spineless creature why did you not stop the Fentanyl? You have free loaded off of us for too long - Americans really don't need Casto's kid giving us advise. Americans love the Canadian people but we laugh and shake our heads at your government. We will have Green land and you will be surrounded - better get the Canadian Burka girls fighting for you. Every move you make is 10 moves behind - you are a country of our Draft Dodgers from the 60's and Islamic misfits - you are leaving a mess for your replacement.

We, the people, don't have free education, many students own loans from universities.\nWe can not buy houses, and no programs help us.\nWe (USA)have a lot of homeless, criminals, people with mental health, PEOPLE ADDICTIVE TO HEAVY DRUGS, plus the alcohol, weed, cigarettes, undecated young people, 30 percent only have a banchelors degree the 70 percent in the whole country don't have university education and not counting young people getting pregnant with toxic partners and their kids repeat the same poisonous life affecting their generations touching lives in a bad way.\nUSA has a lot of potholes in the roads, our foods have over 300 harmful chemicals to harm our health, the health system sucks, education is low teacher teach with youtube and are lazy to teach, educational system is super slow to process student classes or to advice them they make a mess in the documentation of the payments or financial aid, we have to baby sit the educational system to do their jobs and get things done, the food so expensive the egg, milk, vegetable, fruits, gas so expensive it never went down we still paying in LA 5 dollar per gallon to 6.50.\nUSA RENT are for the roofs some states do not even have rental control student loans kill people with HIGH INTEREST THEY GO AFTER YOUR HOME CAR TAXES .\nthe government is not to serve it wants the we the people serve the government.\ngovernment uses our taxes for their personal investment and we the people pay for it.\nThe USA government gives bread crumbs to its own citizens, what can other countries expect from it? The worst part is that most citizens are blind, and we need to wake up and make the government do its job instead of putting our tax money in their pockets.\ncountries need to look for their people but sadly the governments use their people very few are have justice and education.\nUSA say they help but they beat up the ones that are down and take advantages of countries that are in war USA exploit them is an investment not help USA always gets more of the double of what they help invest in countries like congo or eukrania USA want the minerals,land of eukrania and the diamond, land and resources of africa.

Well I've already been fired due to Tarrifs. Now what? What are you going to do to help Mr. Trudeau?????????? You send BILLLLLLLLLLIONS to toger countries, what about us man? We want to work and now totally messed over.

Bro has the charisma of a cartel leader. I think we messed with the wrong country

Our borders aren't safe. Trudeau opened up our borders to allow all these immigrants into our country and mow have ISIS terrorist here in Canada. Trudeau is the biggest terrorist in this country. We wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for Trudeau. He is the biggest liar. He put Canadians at risk. Since Trudeau got in the suicide rates have gone up and it's Trudeau who is at fault. We are fed up with what he has and continues to do and we are feeling completely lost with how we are going to get out of this mess. Canadians want an election for our prime minister. We want Trudeau gone. We don't have any faith in our government officials.

intellect will be mess,, its a mind problems,,,intuition will be right that is never connect with \nmind,, beware handle this all,, not foolish businuss,,, govt not businuss, serve poor to good,, trudo ur time,,, is ready. Love with all country that the way, l request,, noboy under with any body, what ever Ai,, man puchaise our own eyes,, never believe camara photos its fake

All presidents in other countries have called him out on his lies. Trump has really messed up.

Don't pull Trump out. This is the only way he can destroy the United States to become North Korea having no friends. I like to see that happening since I don't live there. I put my money at safe place and wait for financial crisis to come. Please do more crazy stuff Trump. I can't wait for other countries to join force against Trump. But I feel sorry for the next president. He will have a hell of mess to solve.

If Europe, Canada, Japan, misc SE asian countries, etc., get together, they could absolutely take over as the stabilizing force in the world. DJT is doing what he wants - very cynically, he’s happy to ruin the US so he can have control over it. Totally insane. US is a mess, liberals have indulged the crazy left so much that moderates were feeling forced to vote in rebellion- but to ultimately hurt themselves. WTF?! For sure.

Every country should be responsible for their own goods. The day we start relying on other countries for what we need we're in a heck of a mess. Because China couldn't get our merchandise to our plant we had to shut down for almost a month. We messed up sending some of our work to China. After this we got everything in the US. Cheaper prices are not the solution. Cheaper labor is not the answer. Trump is concerned about the drugs coming into our country and since the borders are affected these drugs will be coming into our country many other ways. You know where criminals go to get out of the US. Canada. Trump is doing this for our country and you can bet on this. I'm sick of drugs in our country killing people everyday. I'm sick of guns but just about every household owns guns. Children are killed in their own homes with guns. Who cares about alcohol being sold in their state. Honestly. People are homeless because of addiction to alcohol. Yeah saying president Trump using fentanyl for this for this trade war was a bad move. President Trump is doing this for the drugs taking over this country.

This is what an actual leader sounds like and behaves. And I as a US citizen stand by this man, his words and his country's response to our hot mess of a government. We're going to suffer, but at this point I think we deserve every bit of it because our willful ignorance has thrown the entire planet into a tailspin of disaster. My genuine hope is that every single other democratic country turn its back on us immediately. Let the empire fall once and for all.

Hey …can you address the port tax on boats transporting goods. 1.5 million $ when a boat delivers goods through US ports if the boat carrying the goods was built in China. What about américain transport companies using china built boats ? Hope my country cuts your electricity. Than maybe Americans will wake up to the global mess they let this clown show create.

Why did Canadians dislike this guy so much before all this? Because some Russian trolls on social media disguised as Canadians told them to? That's how we got Trump! It seems like they learned from our mistake. I hope they did. Look, all over the world, things are tough, post pandemic. It's not just your country. You can be patient as left leaning leaders use data and expertise to get things running again...OR you can elect these far right NUTCASES, AND MAKE A MESS THAT IS IRREVERSIBLE! DON'T TRUST THE FAR RIGHT! YOU ARE NOT IN THEIR CLUB. THEY WORK FOR THEMSELVES AND THEMSELVES ONLY, AND WILL TELL YOU WHATEVER LIE YOU NEED TO HEAR TO GET INTO OFFICE.

Mmm....????.\nWhy are we even listening to a guy who resigned to lead our nation ?\nNobody understands he and his party are the root of the problem ?.\nHe's a complete incompetent, and he's the one responsible for all this mess.\nNow, he's worried about the border and the fentanil crisis, when everyone in BC knows that the mountains are full in laboratories producing fentanil..\nNow, he's worried about Canadians and crisis..\nWhen he's leaving the country sunk in the biggest debt of all times...\nSeriously, this is FUBAR.\nEnough is enough Trudeau, you already did enough damage, step away for the benefit of Canadians.\nGo, just go away and forever.

This moron has gutted his country over the past 8 years, He is an out of control, manipulative, self-deluded tyrant. Period. Trumps tariffs have nothing to do with the economic mess this country in.

As a Canadian, \n\nTrudeau is stepping down because he is hated by the majority of this country. He has suspended parliament for his parties own special interest, making it it impossible to properly respond to anything. \n\nTrudeau does not speak for Canada. He’s the reason we’re in this mess. You Americans do not want Trudeau as your president he has ruined this country.

This Old-Senile-Demented-47-criminal wants to start World War 3. Oh yes 47 is a jerk idiot, that’s why I’m supporting Canada. ???.Trudea wants to save life,but this American Con-artist wants to destroy life to keep his money ( read what the holy scripture said about the love of money ) money and power. I hope you Americans are happy. If you want soldiers to go and kill other mother’s children for this despicable criminal, not my friends, families or fellow Christian. If y’all want slaves , you voted for this criminal, so you go slave for him (47). I’m already mourning for those innocent who will get killed. Read : 1 Timothy 6:10 and Matthew 26:14,15. Like I said, you Trash-republicans and maga morons created this con artist, you take care of this mess. As for me I support Canada and all those other countries that this American Con Artist tried to Bully At?????

This is a down right disgrace. I don't know why anyone vote for that man because he is doing more harm than good. A dozen of eggs are $9.00, that's more than a gallon of milk. That man is trying to destroy our country. God Almighty is going to step in real soon. God bless this country and he is trying to mess it up.

Canada is in this mess because of Trudeau. It sure as hell is not Trump. Trump is just playing hardball. What did all you idiot, left wing morons think was going to happen? Trudeau is a narcissist and is not helping this Country. He is increasing the damage that will be inflicted upon us. If you don't see that it is a strong statement on how drastically the education system has failed in the 2 countries.

“THERE ARE NO WINNERS IN A TRADE WAR!” I would defect to Canada any day! But because of a decision I made as a young man, I can not leave this country. I’m imprisoned in this tragic mess. Kudos to you Trudeau. Stand up for yourselves…. Be the sleeping giant. Proud of you all!

You guys know this is not about fentynol right. This is to isolate and weaken our country. For the takeover. I hate to say it, but maga got us into this mess and maga has to get us out

We have no Govt. Trump is dealing with a loser that has already resigned. We have had no GOVT since early December in Canada, because Trudeau put the Liberals before Canadians. Majority of our country doesnt want that fucking loser leading us in this mess, his words are WORTHLESS.

America, wake the feck up. Why do you put old, rich men in charge of your future? You go from one man who isn't far from being in a care home, to a man not that much younger but is a crude, reckless, arrogant, divisive bully?\n\nTake a look at the leaders of Canada and European countries, people who are put there because of talent and quality and ability, not because they are rich.\n\nHonestly, wake up and change your messed-up political system.

Please hurt us. My country deserves pain. The majority put this mess in place.

This what happens when you have a leader who know clue what he is doing....Zero ...thats why Canada is broken and the most expensive country in the G7..Hellooooooo..I am born older Canadian..You tell me what there is in this country to be so Canadian proud? What? This guy messed up our country and now its to late

F trump messing up our country making everything go way up now

What Trudeau done to mess up the country danger for US too, especially bring so many terrorist, crimes and dangerous immigrants, best shot for Trump to hurt Canada, otherwise Canada never learn anything

Why Canada, Mexico, or any other country in the world doesn’t have the problem of drugs except United States of America. Why is that.? Think about it, we are the consumer and want to Party Up like there is no tomorrow. So Donald trump get your S.H.I.# in gear and clean up your mess first before you point fingers.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau thank you for your address to Americans, to the american Bully in chief, and to your people. I am among those who started pushing back before trump took office, many are. We’re watching legislation and countering it. It won’t be easy, but we, the other half who understand that trump is crooked and dysfunctional, will not give up. Generally, Americans are not great when it comes to hitting the pavement and letting our voices be heard, but we’re getting much better. We need to be more like France, but without the destructive automobile fires and other property destruction. Life will be hell here, in my own democratic country, until the Bully is gone. I want the entire republican party gone, they only serve themselves via stock insider information, and messed up wishes to control a dystopian society while kowtowing to the billionaires. I want the democrats rebranded to acknowledge the important social programs we have. Let’s face it, they did not protect us from this trump/project 2025 takeover. Instead they allowed unchecked lies, and the ability to buy his way into office with so many felonies under his huge belt. In a country that is intellectually compromised, lies are very effective weapons against democracy. We need better hate laws to control this lying issue.

Man, we really fucked up voting trump in. We really really messed up. Please world humble our country. Put trump in his place. Please we need the help. Our country is brainwashed.

Trudeau, it's because of YOU that Canada is in this position! You did all this to our country. You and your environmental scams for not letting Canada have their pipeline, you left the borders open so that fentanyl, criminals and illegal immigrants can come into the country... you constantly printed money and created the inflation before all this happened ... now don't try to cover all your mess with big words today as if you really care.

I don’t blame Trump. The American people were given power through voting to decide who takes over leadership of this country. The voters who chose Trump, are ultimately, responsible for whatever mess we are in.

What's happening is insane. I have always loved Canada--and my completely messed up country...but now I only love Canada. Hope to see us together again soon. All of this is breaking alot of good people down. Shame.

Why is there such an imbalance of payments between so called friendly countries. You may not like what Trump is trying to do, balance the offset, but you did set up the imbalance in the first place so this is karma. Trudeau was out before this started so he knows he will not have to sort the mess out he is now creating.

Canada, Mexico, Germany and other countries who are getting caught up in the orange turd of a president's mess. He's not my president and just so you know I've never voted for him. I'm so embarrassed to be an American right now... I promise 50% of U.S voters are idiots the other half of us understand economics, the importance of allies and we're generally nice/smart people. #trumpsucks

You just raised the price of food and goods for your own country. Not smart. Canada cannot win a trade war and their economy is already a mess.

Ya... my country is a mess.\nHelp.

We’re not anti- American, we’re anti-dictatorship. We are supportive of the good Americans. We didn’t take their jobs, savings and are decimating your country the idiots that voted this dictator in because their greed of becoming rich did it. You’ve been suckered, don’t put that on us. Take some responsibility for your own fucking mess. We didn’t shit on you! YOU CREATED THIS WORLD WIDE MESS.

Justin Trudeau, you did this to Canada. It’s so disrespectful calling the sitting President Donald. Why don’t you go raise carbon taxes, send our money to Ukraine and bring in another 10,000 Sudan’s when your people are sleeping on the street. This speech is a joke, look at yourself in the mirror and say all this to yourself. Also, stop lying that only a small percentage of fentanyl go into the states from Canada! You’re lying and need to stop holding our country hostage so the conservatives can clean up YOUR mess just like they’re doing in the US! Thanks to you many Canadians are excited and wish to become the 51st state because you’ve made Canada such a threat to the US National Security. You brought in millions of unvetted immigrants, terrorists and allowed so much crime. CNN shame on you. You’ve fed these poor people so many lies they have no idea of the corruption going on. Thank God Justin is gone. Bye Bye Governor Trudeau.

Just to play devils advocate here, because it seems all the comments are favoring Canada, \nWe just had an administration that ran our country into the ground seemingly on purpose. \nTrump is in the position of playing janitor and cleaning up a mess. Sometimes cleaning up a mess is a dirty job, and it might hurt at first. But however necessary.

President Trudeau-I’m an American. We live paycheck to paycheck. We didn’t vote for Trump & the GOP. The Republican Party has been doing everything it can to destroy America & the hard working people that keep it running, for years. They’ve finally succeeded. It’s an evil party, filled with vile,malicious assholes. But even though we won’t be able to afford many more things anymore, I greatly admire & appreciate you & your country standing up to Trump. If only more of our own ppl would have done that, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

This is so heartbreaking. It's like everything we've worked so hard for is being ripped from ynder us. For those who voted for this mess, SHAME ON YOU! SHAME ON YOU for not doing the work needed, to make a decision that did not tear down OUR country.

Why are we not seeing more push back from American citizens? You clearly gave the power to a gangster, who's in bed with Putin. Are you gonna fix your mess or not? \nFrom the outside it seems that Bernie Sanders is the only one with a brain over there. The rest is just waiting for WW3 to unfold, and letting the billionaires run their country. \n\nYou're pathetic. Wake the f#** up please!

Imagine resigning from your job and still being able to call the shots.....wtf kind of system is this!! Amd canadians just accepting this ?? WTF KINDA COUNTRY IS THIS. Don't wanna merge and have usd and ecpnomic union and a mess fixed justin creates? and not have a gov that executes? Get ready for nsf and bankruptcy

We don't need the USA, as a country we are untied. I think Trump has no idea what he is messing with
