Yes ask yourselves what is this really about \nIsolating the nation from our allies is never a good idea

Starting a trade war with our trusted allies is an extremely stupid idea... But does Trump and his associates ever have a good idea?? I am glad Canada is standing up for what is correct!! Hearing Trudeau speak in the language of FACTS, LOGIC, and REASON is SO REFRESHING!!!! Go Trudeau!!!

The crazy MAGA cult followers at my job will say it's my company that's rising prices and it'll be their fault. This is how delusional my co workers are ? nooooooo it's trumps fault!!!! But they worship him. He can do anything and get away with it it's crazy to me. And we Americans have it good!!! I have no idea what these whites guys with big trucks and money in the bank are crying about!!! I make 19 an hour and have it good. How do these people not have it good who makes more than me?? They Blame Canada, Ukraine and the migrants for hardship?? What hardship?,!!!! And if they do have it rough it's their fault!!! Because if a guy like me has everything he needs and is happy how are these crazy maga people not happy who makes more then me?

Are there ANYONE else than Trump that thinks these tariffs is a good idea? ?

seems like a stupid idea to respond like this. why not instead react by removing the tariffs you already have on our country. that would end it immediately. this war was started long before trump took office. if you think were going to let you continue ripping us off then good luck with that.

Trade war is profitable for USA.\nBut its not a good idea.

This is sheer STUPIDITY. I have no idea what Trump is trying to accomplish here. What good can come from such policies? Is he trying to start a new Great Depression? Start a Third World War? I see no rational thought put in to this at all.

As an American, I say, thank you for standing up to Trump! We all pay the price for the fact that a bunch of fools thought it was a good idea to put an insane felon back in power.

Yes, let the bankrupt Canada who is taxing their own people into poverty start a trade war instead of just complying. What a good idea, Fidel Jr.?

I have a good idea all you guys from different states come together with us usa citizens and take trump out of office cuz we need someone with brains ?

The United States did not start a trade war. Donald Trump started it. Millions of Americans do not believe that tariffs or economic sanctions are necessary or a good idea. On behalf of all decent Americans who believe that our government is in the wrong, we apologize for our president’s behavior.

To the uneducated liberals in the comments, Canada already has a 270% tariff on American goods and has for the last decade with Donald Trump did was put reciprocal tariffs on Canada toQ further balance, the imbalance so you guys being upset that President Trump isn’t acting tariffs on a country who’s already enacted tariffs on the United States then you’re being hypocrites. \n\nSee most of the world audience understands this you guys are actually the minority. Donald Trump is pulling at 60% in United States. The Democrats are pulling at 21% in United States. Just so you guys have an idea of just how unpopular you guys really are.

Trump must be mentally ill to believe this is a good idea.

Good. Trump has no idea how much he has pissed Canadians off.

It takes a special kind of stupid to support these tariffs. It's pretty much just Trump and one other non-expert on economics that claim they're a good idea.

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.

Born and Raised in Canada and there is another sort of comparison I'm starting to see more and more: We have the Stagnation of Japan and the the Personality of Britain. \n\nWhat I mean by that, the people in Canada, least the older ones (Boomers), got very conservative and never wanted to rock the boat and do new things. They had in their eyes a good thing. They had work and owned their home. None of them wanted to risk that so they kept things the same for the past 3 decades or so. Well a lot has changed around the world, and were pretty much the same old. Literally. In retirement. Whats the last interesting thing Canada has done since the Canadarm? \n\nI can think of a number of achievements the rest of the world has done, including many 3rd world countries. But Canada is the same old. This has become our Culture. We don't talk about new ideas. We witness them online, but we're not Creators. We are Consumers. And that is what I think happened to Britain after they got resettled after WWII. Britain is pretty dry. And so is Canada. Hence our forest fires!

Why doesn't ICE just assign someone to watch over all the buses who come to NYC and any buses that come from anywhere within a 2 to 4 hour walk of the border should get re-routed to an inspection facility where everyone on board has their ID /citizenship checked.\nAlso, it might be a good idea to install a border wall in the more isolated areas and clear the land back 50 feet or more on each side of the wall to improve visibility for helicopters/drones. I think many Canadians would support the building of a border wall between USA/Canada in the more remote/isolated areas, and Canadians would probably be willing to help in the construction of it.

who tf thought letting in criminals in was a good idea ? wtf is wrong with the government ? who/how did that happen. how did somebody that stupid make it into the government ? send them to prison for betraying the US citizens

Sanctuary cities while well meaning aren't good for the populous at large. Countries have immigration laws for a reason, subverting them is generally a bad idea.

I am SO SICK AND TIRED of the sanctuary cities ruining law-abiding citizens lives! I can't believe how STUPID they are. They must be getting paid under the table to push these TERRIBLE ideas!! Every person who thinks sanctuary policies are good should be required to accompany the illegals back to whatever cesspool they came from. Maybe then they'd understand how the rest of the country feels! I'm so mad about this, I could just SPIT.

I read in the local news about two weeks ago that five individuals were caught trying to cross Maine's northwestern border. Four of them were Indian and one was an Algerian. It's never a good idea to try to cross the border, but an even worse idea to do it during the winter. It's frigid cold up there and they risk frostbite or even freezing to death.

??Hi Cash, my respect to your great reporting. Here’s a good idea. Follow the money. Reveal the “non-profit” businesses receiving millions of dollars and the names of the owners. Publish the names of those persons fighting to keep illegal immigrants in this Sanctuary city. Investigate how much money they receive and the source. It’s my opinion that migrant use and abuse has become a side business for wealthy New Yorkers. Stop the money and the rats will scatter!

Thanks. It is a good idea, partial I think of Alaska State. Thanks, good luck.

But quee in health system good idea in Bhārat unnecessary scans and operations increasing in Bhārat

This guy had a major.mental breakdown and he is psychologically fit? Hum, hum... can someone tell him, please... lying to each other is not a good idea...

Stick with XRP and BTC as much as you can guys. If everyone sells when it starts to fall, which at one point it will, the dream may be lost because of it being too volatile for companies to get behind. just remember where it's going and don't be put off by short term fluctuations and don't facilitate this dream into becoming a nightmare. The coinbase thing will undoubtedly be replaced by another incident but it will always correct to higher until it's mooned naturally. Don't give up on it and start day trading it, it will take too much time and concentration. Remember XRP is probably bitcoin part 2. It is quite unfortunate that the most popular word lately amongst crypto enthusiasts and traders alike is “hodl.” This concept of “holding on for dear life” in itself may not be a bad idea but why hold on to an investment instrument which could make you some money, or make you very miserable tomorrow? Making a good profit off crypto is easy if and only if you can find the right entry point and exit point in your day trading. Someone I discovered that has tremendously helped me with this is Mr. Ivan Patrice. He has a system which is so effective it amazes me. I have been using his signals and strategies and have turned out a very impressive profit over the last two months. I would suggest him for beginners and even more experienced traders who have a problem turning in a consistent profit. His ¥OU-TUB£- Ivanpatrice. Also on t£l€gram\n\n\n\n\n,.,.,.,.,.,.,.

What do they think Donald Trump‘s gonna put a 25% terra tax on Canada if they don’t quit letting illegals cross the border and go into New York. Trump will most definitely send ice to New York and get rid of everyone of them. He also said that anybody that harbors Illegal immigrants. It’s a crime and they will be removed from office and put in prison. I think that’s a good idea. He’s going to put an into immigrants coming into our country and freeloading off the American people. I don’t blame him. I feel the same way. Get them the hell out of our country.???‍♂️?‍♂️?

To the clown that said that Canada should invite China to build a military base in Canada because of the tariffs being put on their unfair treatment of the United States !\n I guess we will have to wear masks again from all the smoke blowing down from our northern boarder. Good idea what a genius !

Good idea. Graass is greener in India ?????

Stay in India, create a startup with good idea and sell it to Canada OR US , you make way more money this way. India is having huge talent pool. Use it, help poor PHD holders by giving them some work, instead of spending 5 million rupees for useless degrees in foreign lands.

I think locking in 25% is a good idea. Better safe than sorry.

one reason its not a good idea to have them serve is their transition surgerys and medication cost thousands and it just creates problems.

Retaliation tariffs. That's a ridiculous idea. You don't win a tariff war when you're the country that has a trade surplus. In 2023, Canada imported approximately $431.2 billion worth of goods from the United States, while the United States imported approximately $354.3 billion worth of goods from Canada. That's going to hurt Canada a whole lot more than it'll hurt us.

I am a Canadian in Alberta and the reality is that the Liberals have weakened the Canadian economy and our standing in the world. Their decision to cripple our oil and gas industry and our lack of ability export our products elsewhere in the world is an issue created by the policies of the Liberals. To impose a carbon tax and further weaker the average Canadian is terrible. There are some policies I don't like out of the U.S. but the reality is that it is never an idea to pick a fight with the toughest kid on the block knowing you will lose. Trump doesn't even want the tariffs he wants Canada to pull it's weight in defense spending and cooperation. Trudeau backstabbed Trump in the past and that won't be forgotten. We need a new government with a leader that understands more than being a drama teacher and snowboarder. Unfortunately, most of the significant issues Canada faces is the result of self inflicted wounds resulting from incompetent leadership. We didn't have anywhere close this level of issues with the Harper government. We are lucky to have the U.S. as a neighbor so let's do what is good for both nations but there is no way the woke Liberal's can do it.

Every generation will have a very different life if they grew up in any metropolitan place. My grandfather came to Vancouver 1896. His family of five lived in garages while he built houses. No communication with the outside world. My father went to war in 1940's and experience things many will never see. He worked in Vancouver his whole life. My generation saw the first home computer, cell phone and color TV. and the internet was born. I was always taught hystory in school. My kids tell me , they don't know how people lived the last 100 years other than first nations people, and historical figures. Its not taught. They have no idea how people struggled to survive. My kids and their friends are fascinated by the pictures I have from the past 120 years in Vancouver. People now want everything. They are not willing to sacrifice life style. Even my own kids feel this way. Luckily i taught good values and work ethics to my 3 daughters , so they are very successful.

If you think your aomething your not you cleary have mental health issues. Dont mean you couldn't do a good job. So could a depresed person.but its clealry not a good idea to send metally unwell people into dangrous stressfull combat situations.... this group takes there own lives more then jewish people living under nazl germany..... but its sociteys fault.... come on

Maybe a psychological evaluation of the Presidential candidates would be a good idea.....

Finally, a transgender women, who served in the military for 20 years, showed a lot of balls to talk about having to stay in the navy and military, rather than leaving the military and not join the military is not a good idea. They work hard for their service and they work hard on joining the military and fight for their country.

Robin Cole was a sex worker in Los Angeles and some idiot thought it would be a good idea to teach her to be a remote viewing psychic. Then at some point she caught the eye or was introduced to HW Bush. Shut the CIA down. They have become THE enemy of the taxpayer.

Hmmm and people still don’t see how this is getting to be a serious problem. They’re literally rushing in. Instead of taking the time to fix what they have they’re running in EXPECTING things. They don’t think they have to wait their turn! This is what open borders do. They lead to a serious crisis and entitlement. I don’t think I have the right to do that anywhere else. Not to mention we don’t have enough to take care of what we have right now. LA doesn’t have enough water to sustain what they have but they think it’s a great idea to open California and let as many in. What you’re going to do is crumble this country. One nation can only sustain so much. The president of Columbia didn’t want his own people back. That should tell you something. Yet American media is telling us these people are vital to our economy. If they’re so vital and followed by dollar signs, why doesn’t Columbia want their own people?? Aren’t they needed to build the economy there? Wake up people. This is a serious issue. We can’t save the whole world, we simply don’t have the means. If we stay this route what will happen is we will end up in the same spot that Mexico is. You have to teach them to build properly not bring it all here. That isn’t a fix all. Once we have enough gang members, drug cartels and murders from all the other countries, we’ll become those countries, while they’ll have it good because they purged all their criminals to us. They don’t want them back, yet we’re begging them to bring their problems to us! It’s time to take this serious and worry about our own.

You can gather tens of thousands of people to illegally invade a country but you’re telling me these same folks can’t put their heads together to build themselves a town. Or to gather in front of their politicians house and clean out their corruption in their country. Or to formulate a deal with some other country’s so they can get some funding to startup opportunities in their own communities. There’s enormous value in the fact that you can have this many people gather in person the problem is nobody has the brains or intelligence to be a good leader so that the human effort isn’t wasted. Even if they were to get in the problems their facing will not be solved. The problem is that that many people are putting their heads together and the best idea they all can come up with is to invade a country risking life and limb, abduction, and SA at the hands of smugglers and cartels is crazy.

Yeah, at least maybe take the handcuffs off so there's no excuse, maybe a good idea. Count your blessings in getting a regular americano, no sugar - no cream for under $10.

Best for Columbia's president to do the right thing & accept them back now. If not all Americans will view him as dumping his nation's trash at our doorstep, which weakened our national security & had done imessurable damage, upon which I'm certain President Trump will take swift action against him as an example to the other nation's leadership, and you don't wanna be THAT GUY! They cross Trump at their own peril, but the guy's a wizard at destroying people, places, or things, even your ideas if it pleasures him. Both parties are have rediculously long memories & do hold grudges. Case in point, Cuba. They never will allow Cuba to be anything other that a floating rock prison. Please do the right thing & take YOUR people back. We're at least giving him the bennifit of knowing who they are, and what they are BEFORE they can hurt your nation & act accordingly & it'll all be good. You need a little help, just reach out & let us know. We're here to work with you, not against you.

Probably not a good idea to aggravate all the countries on your side of the world

Making trade enemies is not a good idea, aggressive negotiations is not a good idea. Especially over a few thousand people, when the decision negatively affects millions of people. Strengthen methods preventing illegal entry. Don't make enemies of our trade partners over this. ??‍♂️

THATS A GOOD START-MANY OFF US HAVE A LOT OF GOOD IDEAS FROM THE REAGAN DAYS. DO THE MATH COCAINE COFFEE IS GOING TO GO UP.

Damn. How bad must it be where ya came from to make running into America, right about now, a good idea?

My goodness I hope that the president of the united state of America thinks his next big idea better then something like other countries just denying the Americans to land in there countries!!!!

Who would have thought that having borders and laws was a good idea. Interesting.?
