You need to leave. You took away our freedom of speech and expression. CNN is a big lie. People in Canada didn’t forget what and how bad you treated us. Now you are playing trump card . You made Canadians poor . All you do is lie. Trump is working hard for his citizens and what about you.? Just get out and let’s have a better leader. I can’t believe I voted for you.

His girlfriend is running foreign ministry of Canada, both of them targeted India big time just because India took out some of the Khalistani terrorists on Canadian soils.

Canadian PM does not care about his people. The Covid 19 vax mandate showed that. And the money he took away from the truckers. He needs to go away and resign. He is FAkE

I support Trump and I support MAGA. However a president needs to keep his word and Trump appears to have broken his word here. He asked Canada to reign in illegal immigration to the US and Canada complied. He said do something about fetanyl and Canada did. Trump said the tariff's were because Canada was not acting on these but now they have and we imposed the tariff's anyway. We look like liars and cheats. \nEven with Mexico we threatened tariffs if they didn't help with crackdown on illegal immigration, fetanyl, and drug cartels. Mexico complied and is also helping us. And we still slapped tariffs on them. We lied to Mexico too. \nAnd now we want everyone to trust us to negotiate a peaceful end to the Ukraine war with Trump threatening more sanctions on China and the EU. What the heck should they trust us and believe us after what we just did. \nWhen it comes to defining your character your willingness to keep your word overrules absolutely everything else. Our president gave his word that if these countries took certain actions there would be no tariffs. They did and now he slapped them both in the face with sanctions anyway. He broke his word. This is a dishonorable action. I hope it does not escalate from there. \nIf it was about promoting or building domestic industries, I think the Canadians could have helped us with that but now.... good luck now that bridge has been burned.

The rare time I have seen Canadians upset and it took a lot for them to get there because when he says that they are nice, he is not lying. I’m appalled by this!?

Trudeau...you allowed illegals to pass into our country and they cost us hundreds of billions because of your action. You brought harm to Americans , Americans died because of illegals being allowed to passing thru your country knowingly they entering the U.S in violation of Federal Immigration Laws. I remember what you did to Canadians who apposed you, you seized their bank accounts, took away their assets and imprisonment for those who didn't yield to your wish.

We be aight remember when we suffer Canadian will starve for sure this fool is disgustingly stupid and dumb he is talking about dictatorship he forgot what he did few years back to the agricultural sector for protesting/going on strike he been the almighty Canadian aka the big honcho he decides to punished everyone frozen ? all their assets including bank accounts not counting he took Canadian second amendment ?

It took 9 years and on his way out, but Trudeau finally united Canadians. Not happy about tariffs but here we are. Elbows up eh ya hosers

Your government took Canadian guns, we still have ours! Think twice b4 threatening USA and we don’t need anything you got!!

Trudeau is a clown & crook took all his bank accounts of Truckers protest him . He should be in jail for that .He done a terrible job . He got in an airplane right way to DC to see Pres Trump when he won the election . Before & Now With new Tariffs Canadians don’t like Trudeau . They want him out so bad ! He was a cov fool.

I’m an Indigenous American here, I say if Canada was really our friend then they would understand that they have been taking advantage of our countries kindness for too long and it’s time they step up.. If us trying to do something good for our own country for one time instead of everybody else and it’s a problem like this then maybe we weren’t friends anyway.. That means u were only friendly bc u were taking advantage.. \nPlenty of other countries has decided to pick up their own slack and it’s time Canada and America and the other countries start focusing more on their own citizens.. \nThis man is ready to send Canadian soldiers to die in Ukraine right now for something that has nothing to do with them and now instead of negotiating an agreement it’s all about relation and hurting your own people to get back at others over something you took personally..\nI always liked Trudeau but if that’s how he feels about our country then that’s how we feel about his.. \nwe don’t care about Canada anymore except justing Bieber and Linus media group.. everyone else can go lol..

Cut the power off to the U.S. ?? and stop the 4 million barrels of oil going over the border put a stop to the Uranium going south no more Nickle or steel or Aluminum, Potash for their Farmers stop that also, the additional measures being considered will be painful and unfortunately the majority of Americans don't realize what's coming their way sure Canada ?? will feel pain also but we are standing up for what's right these tariffs is an unprovoked attack on our economy and you can bet Vladimir Putin ?? is smiling now knowing Trump can be compromised just look at what Putin ?? has managed to do so far he has manipulated Trump into alienating all his allies which has now happened you can bet that Vladimir Putin ?? is going milk this till he either succeeds in destroying the world ? view of the U.S.?? or manipulates Trump into telling him things he shouldn't to further his plans because if you think Vladimir Putin ?? does have a deck of cards up his sleeve you're nieve he has shook the hands of 2 dictators, Kim Jong Un ?? and Vladimir Putin ?? and has burned all his bridges with allies and you still think Russia isn't trying to interfere politically so it works to their advantage it already has. Hell he is ex KGB for crying out loud if that's not a red flag then the U.S.?? has more issues than I thought. How could Trump and his thugs attack President Zelensky ?? on live T.V. for the world ? to see how disrespectful, cruel, a total lack of compassion for a president who has had his country destroyed he's losing his people and that shirt President Zelensky was wearing was from a young girl back in Ukraine the U.S. ?? played Judge, Jury and executioner on live T.V. They are punishing President Zelensky for absolutely no reason by stalling aid to Ukraine his people are being slaughtered and they want Ukraine to give up territory and that's not acceptable under any circumstances Trump is trying to force President Zelensky ?? into a deal with Russia ?? by stalling aid. So let's punish people in a country that has been destroyed even more to force them into a deal with Russia ?? that would require Ukraine to give up territory absolutely not! Ukraine must remain in tact and return to its former glory ?? the United States of America ?? can no longer be trusted especially if they attacked their closest allies and insulted us continually did WW1 and WW2 mean absolutely nothing to the U.S.?? when Iran ?? took American hostages Canadians ?? worked tirelessly to devise a plan to get them back to the U.S. and succeeded in doing Just that the Canadians brought back the Americans safely. When 9/11 happened and Canada ?? took on thousands of passengers in Gander Newfoundland Canada ?? we opened our airspace and landed each and every one of them safely then when Americans couldn't get their medication, Gander gave it to them free of charge when Americans went shopping for clothes the stores gave it to them free of charge everything they needed was provided free of charge they were fed housed offered compassion and opened their homes so Americans could shower and clean up. So Canadians has always been there for the U.S.?? and this is how Canada ?? is repaid for its sacrifices made during both wars and other historical events that involved both countries ????? So if the world ? sees the U.S. attacking it closest allie for no reason and insulting Canada ?? at every turn and spreading complete lies about Canadians saying we want to be the 51 St State! No Canadians want that I can tell you, not for anything or any amount of Gold or currency would Canadians want to be part of the U.S.?? we'll the world ? has seen the 2 faces of the United States ?? now and you can bet the confidence in all aspects in that country will plummet! The ?? can't be trusted anymore.

Statement from the man who took Canadians bank accounts and rights during covid 19. Does anybody remember the truckers in Canada and people being arrested and locked up indefinitely?

Let's be honest, it took a US President for Canadian Prime Minister to act tough on drugs and illegal immigration. Things he should have been doing in the first place without any international pressure. It shows the absolute disrespect he has for Canadian citizens demanding the same.

GTFO Turdo you ruined Canada, manufacturing and production all companies are leaving Canada. Canadians are leaving Canada long long before the tariffs took place. \nAnd by the way American consumer will be paying Tariffs so don’t you dare to play the victim.

Trump is trying to end a war it’s not the same thing. We don’t need Canada if you haven’t been to America then you don’t know. We can make whatever you can make and better we can grow anything and more then you can just bc of regional weather. Canada is mad bc they make a lot of money off of us and trump is changing America and getting what it’s worth. America always pays more for imports and exports , why? and yet with out American people buying y’all’s stuff you your government will fall gotta keep last and for most gotta keep Canadian politicians payed as far as I know y’all haven’t had to worry about prices in y’all’s country. For years we have been paying more for stuff that should be made here or we pay less. Plain and simple we are getting what we are worth take it or leave. It will be funny when he cuts all exports from Canada it will take a little bit but we will compensate ans there gonna with they just took the 25% little saying over here is you never know what you got till it’s gon.

Canadian here(Quebec) I feel sad for all the Whiskey industries in Kentucky, those workers didn't deserved the counter-effects of the tarifs. Everything can be done with respect & diplomacy, but it's not the road President Trump took. Fellow Americans, I am very sorry about that, rest assured that us here, we make the difference between your President & all of you.

Except for polievre who took this sad occasion to promote himself. Very much how Canadians should not behave at this moment

Trump forgets, or never knew where all the American planes landed during 9-11. The Canadian people and specifically Newfoundlanders, fed and took care of people from all over the world. He would charge the people on the planes if they landed in he US! And ask for the mineral rights in their countries!

The Canadian government is backed by China, folks. They took a great hold on the Canadian government back in COVID times.

Canadians are one of the nicest people in the world but once injustice took place we can be harsh sorry bout that.

These comments have to be bots ?. Trudeau is one of the worst leaders the world has ever seen. Took away Canadians rights. Took away free speech. Just to name a few. But he gives one good speech and all is forgotten?? Like I said, these comments HAVE to be bots lmaoo ?.

CANADIAN SOCIETY HATES JUSTIN TRAITOR TRUDEAU MAKE THAT MAKE SENSE TO USA us Canadian who he said he resigned to he's still her HE FIRED CANADIAN MILITARY ELITE JTF2 BCS OF VACCINE MANDATE THEY RISK THIER LIFE 20 YEARS IN IRAQ AFGHAN NATO TOOK THIER CORRIE AND PENSION BENEFITS ARRESTED #FREEDOMCONVOY2022 BUT LET PALESTINIAN PROTESTERS SCREAMING KILL JEWISH PEOPLE ACROSS THE COUNTRY JUSTIN TWO FACED EVIL TO THE CORE \nDON'T BELIEVE ANYTHING HE SAYS

This clown ?who took an entire country hostage by freezing parliament, the one who systematically destroyed the Canadian economy is giving us a lesson in economic strategies! Canadians want immediate elections and the repositioning of Canada in the economic war with a strong government, supported by Canadians, not with gangsters and thieves in government!

I have so much respect for the Canadians! You do what you have to do to protect your country, it used to be the American way too! Not one American can blame you for protecting yourself even if it is going to hurt. I would rather be hurt by someone trying to defend their sovereignty than to be hurt by a damn bully who took an oath to protect us and yet has no desire to do so.

As a Canadian, I am so humbled to see so many people from so many different countries standing with our people.\n\nThank you, so very much to every one of you who took time to show their support.. It truly means the world ???❤️\n\nElbows up ❤

When you ALREADY have tariffs in place against the US you cannot claim Trump is starting a trade war. You started it. Now we have a POTUS with the sand to stand up for us not the world. Republicans understand that things will get tough. Liberals are already snow flakes that were in a melt down from the day Trump took office. We voted them out. I don't think Canadians are going to tolerate much for long unless you open the Treasury and give them money thereby bankrupting them. Drop your tariffs and Trump will drop yours. Is a win win.

Amazing the libtards actually did their job. All it took was Trump's tariffs. Actual Canadians thank you president Trump.

As a Canadian - Trumps 'brilliance' has done one thing for sure, it's aligned all of the provinces against our neighbor and former ally the United States. It's done something we ourselves have had difficulty with - gaining support from Quebec. The overwhelming vast majority of Canadians don't trust the US anymore, as the legal justification for the tariffs is absolute bull, and is a pretext for Trumps actions. My family has cancelled all US travel, in my case 2 trips this year worth 15K to the US. I will miss Vegas for my 60th. We used to shop in WA State weekly; last year I spent 11K in WA State, and routinely took in shows in Seattle. No more. \n\nCan anyone please explain why Trump is screwing over Americans? Seriously.

It’s nice to see Trudeau talking like he has a pair. He spent the last 9 years destroying Canada so let’s not act like all our problems today are Trumps fault. Too little too late my friend. You should’ve woken up earlier but it took Trump for Canadian politicians to realize oh wait maybe we shouldn’t have all our eggs in one basket ? - from a Canadian

Guess he should have stepped up and took care of that border patrol like he should have. Purposely makes the Canadian middle class work harder just for his vacations

As a canadian, i have, as many american friends as i have canadian friends. I know very well that any educated and rational american is completely against that group of criminals that took over your beautiful country that i love so much, disguised as a political party for the time of the election. \n\nThere is either a Coup-d-etat, perpetrated by the current richest man in the world who WASN'T elected by americans, OR, a Self-Coup perpetrated by the current administration, replacing great american values and traditions with an unprecedented level racism and removing all diversity, equality and inclusion, sending the United States back to the Stone Age. Love to my american friends who were always there for me ❤????

Trudeau has not been a good Prime Minister. He took the Liberal Party (historically a centrist party) further left, wasted billions of dollars during Covid and put punishing carbon taxes on Canadian citizens. Having said that, this IS his finest hour and he and most of the provincial Premiers have shown a solidarity and strength that will prove to the US that their northern neighbour is not the pushover they thought they were. It's up to the American people to rectify this situation.

So after they got tariffed, now he suddenly cares about the Canadian people and the cost of living? Something he has done fuck all to improve since he took office? LMAO okay tough guy...

I’ll say first that I’m a Canadian…\n\nTrudeau and his government has been in power almost 10years and in that time Canada has gotten progressively worse—the drug crisis; immigration; inflation etc etc. I find it shameful that it took a foreign leader (Trump) to ignite changes within my country. Are the tariffs fair to Canada? No, absolutely not but Trump is not the president of Canada—right, wrong or indifferent he’s looking out for the US. \n\nJustin Trudeau is a corrupt lame duck prime minister who technically resigned a month ago. \n\nTrump will listen to Canada and respect Canada when a new government is place

Canadians are reasonable are you on drugs? Obviously, you are is that why when the truckers protested against Covid you locked them all up and took all their money you need to be with all the other corrupt politicians in the United States in jail

Justin, you had to stop illegal immigration right after trump took power 1.0. You have made our fellows Canadians much poorer. Resign now?????????

It took Trump in power to unite all of Canada... Now we are stronger then ever. Good luck my fellow Americans, stay strong as we Canadians are with you ✊️???? ❤️

Trudeau took pains to distinguish between everyday decent Americans just trying to get by and their unhinged government which is leading them into economic and political ruin. As a Canadian who has traveled extensively in the US, and has friends there, I hope American citizens can save themselves.

Canadians are reasonable, so is it fair that Trudeau is increasing our carbon taxes another 20% next month? Please reason that neon double standard. He’s literally the worst PM in Canadian history. \nIn Nov 2024 the BIGGEST drug bust in Canadian history took place in BC. The amount of fentanyl alone would have killed the entire population of Canada TWICE. International cartels involved. So if it takes tariffs to make our borders safe, that’s on Trudeau, not Trump. This security should have been sorted out a long time ago.

No problem with Canadians. Not sure why they put up with Trudeau. It took this to get him to take action on the border, and from what I understand the Canadian accounting is flawed. E.g. one percent of ten percent surveilled is not impressive, when 90 percent are crossing freely.

Trudeau you ordered martial law against peaceful Canadians and you took truck drivers licenses away for life and find them $100,000 and threw them in jail for those that were part of the freedom convoy do not talk about every Canadian. You should keep your mouth. Can we vote to be part of the US 51 state, because after being beat up by my Canadian government the US isn't looking that bad at all.

????says someone who took Canadians guns away, froze truckers bank accounts and towed their equipment and screw farmers while becoming millionaire,gtfo here?

india people you are 100% the reason for visa changes rules. this channel is pure propagnada. some 20 000 or more never ending took any courses just went to canada to steal jobs from canadians. and some 50 000 indians were caught illegaly crossing into usa. fun fact nomad captislts rank the india passport 179-185 the world over lower than most african countries all about experience with said country

As an Australian who was born, raised, and has returned to VicDanistan... It's been a humiliating few years.\n\nBut when that same man's story has the added context of the fact that I happen to be here as a result of the path my (late) father took, coming here from Thunder Bay Ontario... The region our family had been in since the 17th century... and ironically live in Canadian, Victoria (so named due to the unknown Canadian killed in the Eureka Stockade).\n\nWhen I consider all that, it often feels as though the simulation is just trying to make jokes. \n\nBut I can assure you, it's not a life story that's easy to get behind, or laugh at. The maple leaf or even the southern cross are no star spangled banner, not in this current year, that's for sure.

While I agree as we have the same problems with illegal Venezuelans. I am sure they are legal permanent residents. They are hard working people who are building Canada. Canada needed the skill sets and they took advantage of this. From the video -Who are the drug addicts? Who don't have housing? Canadians didn't want to study nor work and are paying the price.

Don't listen to that garbage right winged fox media. Canada was dealing with this well before Trump took office again. As a Canadian, I can tell you our government failed us too. We took in well over 5 million immigrants (documented and undocumented) over the past 3 years. Like New York, many of our cities are overwhelmed with this influx. We don't even have the resources to track down expired visas, overstays, or asylum cases. Last year our government admitted there was a problem and decided to start taking action. The biggest issue is people claim to be tourists with no intent of leaving. The Canada US border is far stronger than our international one.

As a Canadian I’m sorry you have to deal with our horrible immigration policies. It’s sad it took trump for our government to actually do something about it

LOL. average of 3.3 million migrants last year.... 500 000 were illegal. You are worried about 13000 from the Canadian border. DOnald did nothing but move his mouth and made noise. His threats mean nothing. We already had border security addressed. We already are doing what we were doing and Donald did.... nothing.... same as Mexico....DOnald demanded 10 000 guards on Mexican border.... so Mexico took away 10 000 from the 20 000 they had at the border. Your leader is an idiot and you are believing him? Americans think this is a win.... but you did nothing but end free trade. Now your allies trade for FREE with the world.... You get no minerals, no energy, no oil.... because your leader negotiated by bullying..... and you cannot bully a country unless you want to start a war. Your leader is a moron... do not drink the kool aid.... because when the immigrants are gone.... who is next to blame for crime and housing crisis?
