Why were immigrants brought in? Answer that first! Who allowed it?? People go through a legal process, pay legal dues, wait with pride their turn to get entry to Canada to see themselves grouped with those who were allowed in free and demanding their cultural needs be met! And guess who bent over backwards!! It's painful people looking down upon you as hateful aliens! Stand up to policy makers and ask why that policy! They are busy with their shananigans adding votes to stay at helm while we spit venom!

I don't hate the immigrants themselves, but the way our country handles immigration. I'll be the first to admit it's getting harder to keep those two things separate. What compounds that hate is since I've been looking at moving out of this country... it's disheartening that most countries (rightfully so) make you have to be able to both assimilate and afford to fend for yourself to get a immigrants visa. And I guess Canada isn't enough of a shithole to get refugee status... yet. Like many Canadians now, I'm living cheque to cheque to make ends meet. So not only do I hate it here, but am essentially trapped. Next time you want to get pissed off at an immigrant, save it for a Liberal. It's a good chance he/she will be one in the same anyways.

I became homeless after spending over 2 months in the ICU of a Toronto hospital barely walking in was taken to a Toronto city shelter and for 5 years I've been in 5 different Toronto shelters in what seemed like a blink of a eye every shelter became 80% north African Muslim men ,they were given cash allowances to buy their own food $80 a day plus welfare cheques once a month boosted up with TTC allowance $157 clothing allowances and yes they were all given money to buy laptops and smart phones apparently so they can keep in touch with their families back in Africa, in the last shelter I stayed in there was only 6 white Canadian born homeless people living there and 94 north Africans whom we started to notice were being housed only to have the next one take up their cott space housed yes and when we started looking into how they were getting housed so fast when we were apparently on a 37,000 name waiting list for housing with our housing workers telling us it will take 10 years if we are lucky then we found out about the secret housing program that these fresh off the boat immigrants were getting market value apartments of their choice you pick the government pays one African we befriended ( he wasn't a believer in Islam shush or they'll kill him) got a 1 bedroom condo apartment over looking Toronto's Island airport $2,700 a month and the government payed for all his furnishings, so now we knew and we approached the on site housing workers asking why we weren't told about COHB at first they tried to deny it existed but researching we had all the information first these COHB forms were to be handed out to those with seniority length of stay so as to cut out on abuse being that they are worth over $250,000 after ten years of paying your rent as in free housing for life , then we discovered the staff were making false entries on our files claiming some of us lost our seniority for fighting claiming we were kicked out for 14 days others for smoking violations what they didn't think we knew was on admission to any shelter you sign a agreement that they are videoing you and keeping a file on you that also stated we are allowed to have up to date copies of our files then during the 2 weeks we were supposedly kicked out we asked for the videos from that period once they realized we had a advocate working for us who a l so supplies lawyers to us should we need so they got caught then management called us all up for a meeting and that's when we hit him with a bombshell yes the shelters are staffed with immigrants from the same African countries this Hoard is coming from and we have a sworn statement saying they are charging $10,000 for these guaranteed housing forms yes $10,000 that's what our none Muslim African shelter friend payed for his form and why he's now living free in easily close to a million dollar condo and believe me the cars parked there show it, ok so after we busted them guess what 6 whites who were all born in Canada and have lived a average of 3.5 years in a shelter all got housed in apartments of our choosing mind we did get ours fully furnished by the government like all these illegal Christian hating islamists get free housing free food free clothing free medical free dental free prescription drugs and a free huge monthly welfare cheque Rebel news please contact us we want every Canadian to know what's going on and how we Canadians are being left out, p.s just go to any money transfer business at the end of the month and you'll see line ups of these north Africans wiring money back to their wives and families even boxing up all the mountains of free clothing sending it to Africa same what they're doing with all the prescription drugs they are getting for free everything is about making money taking taking taking not putting anything back , now I sleep soundly no one stealing my belongings no more catching a different cold every week no more being called a filthy infidel which seems to be their favorite word COHB look that up and if your living paycheck to paycheck working 2 jobs just get to a shelter say one with 94 Africans who will all be housed shortly leaving you the most seniority easy peasy but remember to keep a eye on your file for false entries or borrow $10,000 to buy one

Welp, about a half an hour ago when I got home, I realized that someone broke into my apartment building and stole my shoes that were infront of my door. SHOES. last year someone broke in and stole my bike. The thing is, this area was NEVER like this. It was safe and people trusted each other. Guess what has changed? The amount of immigration in my city and in this area. I am terrified during the night that someone will break into my apartment since theyve been able to get into the building. My entire life I have always stuck up for minorities and all different groups that have been apparently marginalized. Now, after everything happening in my city, in the world, to the people I love and myself, I have had ENOUGH. I want these people out of my country. Go back to your shitty countries with your shitty ideas and shitty ideologies and shitty everything because you do not belong here. If you do not properly become a Canadian citizen, such as assimilating to our culture, language and so on and leaving your shitty ideas behind, then you are not wanted and you do not belong here. Canada is being destroyed because of YOU and our communist "liberal" leaders. As a former SJW, feminist, leftist, member of the alphabet Mafia, I see the destruction and the deception of these ideologies and they are the opposite of what is real and true and free. Bring Canada back.

The agruments are weak. The first settlers who left europe to settle in US was for economical and religious reasons. People should give up their food, personal values, language when they settle in north america? Well I guess you cannot eat any Jamaican food again. In new york people still are proud of their italian and irish heritage. The problem with Canada is you flooding your country way too fast with immigrants.

Let me guess , Canada started letting migrants run the immigration system ?

Every other country except Poland has a ‘too many paki’ problem. Take a guess what’s coming for Canada? Why are we so stoopid about this?

I guess Canada doing the same as other countries.

Okay,\n so I guess maple syrup is going to cost more...\nI can't think of anything that Canada exports, sry\n?

Lol, what a dummy. Doesn't her know that that doesn't work that way? Sure go ahead and go for it, america accounts for almost 80% of Canada's total goods and service exports ? what makes this even more worse for Canada's prime minister is the fact that they recieve just over 60% of imports from guess who.... the United States. Where as america has the ability to stop all trade to canada all together, be just fine with the reserves we have. While increasing trade import and export with another country we already do business with, making them very happy in the process and still making huge savings in the process. When 80% and 60% of your exports and imports respectively. Consists of literally sharing its only common border with the united states would mean a complete scrap of the total infrastructure since they would hace then compensate through sea and air through the arctic and distances of 10x of what they are used to. Then it starts to make sense as to why trump wants Greenland. Look this it just a bluff by the Canadian prime minister that supposedly resigned not long ago but his tyrant ass don't really wanna leave. Plus, you really think dude can make up for all that loss and go find it through another contry? Hahaha? yeah okay good luck with that. Canada shoukd ne disappointed in the man even more. He's not for you, he's for himself and the best for him and the other lobbyists. ???

Enjoy your short battle, Canada imports 75 % from the USA, USA 15% from Canada, Guess who will win ?

Justin ! you weren't able to protect and run the country when times were easy , when Germans begged you for LNG ! Back than you told them Canada doesn't have the infrastructure to load it into vessels . Guess what? neither Germany had that , but they;ve built in 3 MONTHS !! When you went to India it looked like you were there to go clubbing or dancing instead of looking for contracts or investments, either Canadian to India or viceversa . Now , looking for some other markets when USA is getting closed, its difficult . Nice words ,by the way , but action is what we need .

I guess it's politics Mr. Trudeau.\n\nA PM who protects and harbours Khalistani Terrorists for political reasons is surprised Trump is making policies for his political reasons ... \n\nTrudeau has reduced Canada to the impoverished 51st state of the US ??.

Well if hes going to talk like that all governor positions are off the table for him...\nMaybe Putin will catch Trudeaus ankle with an umbrella end and ding dong the witch is dead. ?\nFunniest thing is he says prices are expected to rise for Americans . Through tariffs right?\nSo then he matches those tariffs. So i guess Canadians can expect the same old bs from him.\nBC legalized fentynol! They found a giant fentynol lab out there. Imagine how many more there are! \nCrack heads all over our major cities in Canada. Jobs are down, economy is down, human rights is down. But he has nice socks.

Castros illegitimate child just said US tariffs will hurt Anericans... then this moron implements tariffs on US goods....guess what moron that will then hurt your people and economy ? libtard logic ...oh and hes on tje way out so we care what he says...yeah not at all ?...canada makes me laugh

Not surprised at the amount of treasonous morons in this comment section, siding with foreign leaders that have been ripping us off for decades. Canada already imposes tariffs on US products, now they are adding additional taxes, when all they had to do is lower (better yet, eliminate) their current ones. I guess progressives like being taxed to hell.

There is a lot of talk on Fentanyl headed south, but no mention by Canada of how much of the drug heads north. I can't be zero. There has to be transit of the drug from the USA into Canada.\n\nBut what I truly don't understand, is that what heads south is not crossing through the Canadian border. All south bound traffic needs to go through US Border patrol agents. So by that measure, how is Canada not doing its job? I've crossed into Canada many times and have been asked to pull over for a search of my vehicle more times than I've been searched on my return to the USA, which was once, my very first crossing in 2002. \n\nMy only guess is the problem isn't fentanyl, that's just a distraction and by design a way to get people believing in something that isn't true and to help further the rift.

? Learn your facts! Canada taxes us on tariffs! Now we are doing the same so I guess America is the bad guy ?‍♂️

The politicians have lost and don’t think Putin is our friend… We just want people to stop dying… War is not the answer at this point… Bro thinks the retirement stock market is inflation? ? That explains why sleepy Joe messed it all up. Canada is just mad we don’t want their candy. ? Find business elsewhere where I guess bruh. ? You don’t have to cry about it on TV…

Just a guess but do you think for a second trump knew this would happen?? And he know its still the right thing to do instead of being taken advantage of? And that canada will talk tojgh amd then renegotiate? Nah not you cry baby libs. Brandon peobably wrote this speech for his teleprompter.\n\nHeres an idea. Meet with him in person and be this tough! Hmmm

Hey guess what, Canada! We don't want this either, but our leader is a piece of 5h1t scumbag. And me, and millions of people are so triggered right now, and we hate him and what he stands for and what he is. And guess what else, we're scared. More than you will ever understand.

Oh well, I guess maple syrup will be more expensive now until Canada becomes the 51st state.

Did this guy resign like seven months ago Guess resigning in canada is completely different

Did Canada assess how much illegal drugs come into their country from their southern border? My guess would be that it's more than what flows down

Has governor Trudeau not accepted the order from his boss President Trump yet, at making Canada Americas new state? ? I’m being sarcastic btw. I love Canada and dying for some poutine. I guess Burger King and some other burger chains here in Denmark comes close with their loaded fries, but it’s just not the same. The color of are flags are the same though. This is Trudeaus best speech, I always thought he was an idiot until today. Canada, je taime❤

Guess Canada wants to wake a dragon ?, like dont think Americans won't out produce you , we the majority voted for this . Save your gas lighting for some one else we dpnt buy garbage here .

You want us to pull together, I GUESS YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE WASTED CANADA'S BILLIONS OF DOLLARS YOUR A COMPLETE FOOL.

I'm still lost on how it's the US fault for Canada allowing drugs/etc to enter the US...If we send our Military to CA and start killing people, I guess it would be CA fault?

Now I don't want to dampen the positive comments being direct to us Canadians which we all appreciate. However, I don't want people to forget that this individual talks about making things affordable for their citizens. There is a reason he has resigned. Don't forget that our country unreasonably fights itself on sooooo many things that make items in Canada so much more expensive than they need to be. I was hopeful our own government would make living more afforable for all Canadians by putting a freeze on things such as the Carbon Tax....guess that wasn't in the cards!? Together I hope that intelligence and common decency prevails.

Canada, your PM is lightyears ahead of the orange clown in mental capacity - but I guess you already knew that. Trump is the laughing stock of the world!

Let me guess. Canada doesn’t tariff anything from the USA. ????. Reciprocal coming next

If your most stable genius noticed that this very eloquent man referred to very. simple. speech. and. short. main. sentences. when addressing him? Yes, you can insult people without throwing stupid names at them. Very fitting. The orange messiah deserves every malice he can possibly get. And more, because this whole trade war will affect especially poor and medium income US consumers. CANADA will help Canadian citizens affected from the tariffs. Guess what DT´s administration will do for US citizens. Exactly.

I've been saying since Trump said that he's going to put tarrifs on Canada, that's going to hurt the US in the economy and jobs and well here we are..\n\nAnd to think that some people think Trump is doing a great job with all this, is mind boggling.. but I guess they can't see through his lies and stupidity.

Border in Canada is not secure. More than 1% comes through our border.\n\nThe 1.4 billion TALK of border bs, is sll talk! Nothing has been passed! Just talk. They've fine nothing because Trudeau suspended parliament do he wont lose an election.\n\nNone of the stuff he spoke of is implemented, NOTHING!\n\nDrop in seizures lol so you missed it before, but now you're missing more! Lol it's absurd. He doesn't protect us, he allows illegal guns in our cities, while banning legal firearms we use to protect ourself, banned!! From LAW ABIDING CITIZENS!!!\n\nTRUDEAU IS NOT OUR LEADER, HES A TREASONOUS POS!\n\nMore idiots, leading us into wars that cannot be won! Fk off Trudeau, get back to work!\n\nElection NOW!!! YOU LYIMG POS. Stand up for Canadians lol like the frozen bank accounts of truck drivers who rejected your illegal UNSCIENTIFIC MANDATES!! \n\nLIE LIE LIE, LIE ENOUGH, I GUESS HE BELIEVES HIS OWN BS!!

I guess trump's fans would say it is time to invade Canada and let it become the 51 state as what putin is doing.

Please, here are just some historic tariffs Canada hits America with. \n\nMilk: 270%\nCheese: 245%\nButter: 298%\nChicken: 238%\nSausages: 69.9%\nBarley seed: 57.8%\nBovine/meat: 26.5%\nCars: 25%\nHVAC: 45%\nVacuums: 35%\nCable boxes: 35%\nTVs: 45%\nSteel: 25%\nAluminum: 45%\nCopper: 48%\n\nTake a guess how much financial aide the U.S. sends Canada EVERY YEAR and how much military defense $$$$ we provide?

Damn this crazy so Canada has no tariffs on US goods or exports to the US I guess.

I guess made in the USA cost more in Canada. \n\nThank you Governor Tee

CNN I guess y'all like that cuz I don't like Trump so y'all ride with Canada

if i was to take a wild guess, probably more drugs to canada from us. than other way around. bu donald does putins dirty work.

Is Canada allowing any refugees from the U.S.??? I’m not joking. My whole family lives in red states like Indiana, Texas, and Kentucky (okay Ky is more purple I guess but definitely leans red despite the amazing blue Governor). We all want to move. It’s only 5 people but 3 of them are elderly. Is there any hope for us?

I guess siding with the bully as he was messing with many counties all these years is now hitting back to both EU and Canada. Very brave speech, though. Unfortunately, international affairs are driven by economic and military power, not by intellectual capacity.

Canada has a population of 40 million while the U.S. has 330 million. Take a wild guess why Canada has a trade surplus with the United States.

Somewhat right but not exactly right. According to Trump admin, Trump is actually trying to stop the circumvention of Chinese goods and Chinese drugs coming from Canada. Trudeau promised Trump to work on the drug issue, but I guess he did not if we are seeing the significant import tax on Canada now. And come on Trudeau, you dislike Trump and aren't exactly his friend. You talked back on him on many international stages. Anyways, I wish you two get along eventually and hope the same for US and Canada.

I guess it is a hard “No” to Canada becoming the newest US state,then?

To my mind, Trump would have started the trade war with Canada no matter what measures Canada undertakes. My guess is the underlying motive behind the whole theatre is to somehow pressurize Canada into complete submission. Remember his comments about Canada should become the 51st state? I presume that in reality his eyes are set on Canada‘s vast resources and the potential north-west passage which would be a fantastic gift to his master Putin.

The only thing D.T. is doing is ruining everything with his politic. (But I guess we all know about it).\n\nThat's the one whom signed the Free trade agreement between US, Canada and Mexico. The same guy whom now pretexting this agreement is not good for US. \nHe destroys all the friendship with US allies and what has been built for decades.\nIn 4 years, what wil be left over?\n\nAmericans will suffer the incompetence of this guy.\nIf only it was not real, we could either think it's a fiction or a joke, unfortunetly neither of both of them; that's a reality.

Canada is a puppet state; it agreed with every sanction the US put on other countries, but guess what, it's your turn now.

Well we cant go to Canada now if your passport says American, i guess Mexico will be next, those islands off our coast are looking better and better to live

I guess USA citizens and Trudeau simply aren't getting it, Trump wants these tariffs because he WANTS to tax the heck out of the ordinary US citizen in order to pay for his tax cuts for his Billionaire friends.....Canada could have COMPLETELY stopped Fentanyl trafficking and Trump STILL would have invoked tariffs.....just like no matter what Zelenskyy could do, he was determined to make an EXCUSE to stop supporting Ukraine's war efforts.......in addition, if you didn't know better, it appears that Trump wants to team up with Russia......??????
