Drug use in America, particularly the fentanyl crisis, is a significant issue that requires attention from the government. If American citizens weren't using fentanyl, the demand for it in the market would decrease. However, during his administration, Trump often shifted responsibility for problems rather than addressing them directly. Additionally, the tariffs he implemented had widespread negative effects, impacting people both domestically and globally for the benefit of his administration.

If you weren't such as a$$ ,you would clean our mess up in Canada, & the tariffs would go away.

Newsflash Justin, we could afford it if you weren't already taxing us to death......CarbonHoax tax .....take 8t with you when you leave. Stop representing Canada, you resigned because we hate you.

No you believe in us protecting you for free for forever. And it’s over. You are crippling yourselves Canada. And again, you must have a team of moderators that crowd source opinions and use mine often to prepare you for your next speech. I am but one intelligent Hoosier calling these moves… you really will be losing seafood here next ;). Trade war is hardly 25%, and the tariffs were meant to be reciprocal anyways XD so wooo, big move. Weren’t you facing fraud charges or something just recently cuz you stole from your own people?

Go awayyyyyy!!!! Weren’t you supposed to be gone by now?!

Why weren't these measures taken during the Biden administration? And only now because Trump is asking you too. ?Smh..

Canada wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for America, they’re not self sufficient. Cut off the child support and make them the 51st state.

Even if it were relating to fentanyl. If the United States weren’t so slack about its own drug enforcement, there would be less coming into the us because it just wouldn’t be worth it.

I’m ???? because my ?? parents, my dad weren’t fans of murdering innocent men women AND CHILDREN! (and boy did that happen!) in Vietnam. ???❤️❤️ \nTHANK YOU mom and dad for leaving your worlds/family and friends, behind to first, do the right thing and second so we could be CANADIANS ????????❤️❤️❤️?

Also, we wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for 12 years of bad government and lack of leadership.

I wish we weren't so polarized, that we weren't either good or evil ... but it starts to feel this way now, how can we all get out of this situation? I really wish for a peaceful coexistence in our world\nKind regards from ??

As an American, I hope that our allies can recognize that we are prisoners in Trump's corruption. We are as abused children in a toxic family who wait in the window, looking for someone who can help as the U. S. has, as we used to, when we weren't led by an insane person and his greedy regime. People are protesting and fighting in all kinds of ways but this regime insulates itself.

Prime Minister, I wish you weren’t resigning. I would be proud if you were my president, not the one who has acted so viciously without thinking of the consequences which hurts Americans as well. The only person who will benefit from this will be Vladimir Putin.

Bad for Canada. Bad for America. Bad for the world. The question is whether the majority of MAGAs abandon Trump after a recession begins because of Trump's policies. I'm not sure. Maybe? For sure, they'll try to blame Biden. And some just want Trump to fight the culture war and are willing to accept the consequences of an economic downturn so long as trans people are restricted on the bathroom they can use. Some are rich enough that they wouldn't be affected by a recession. As if world events weren't already volatile enough.

Maybe if YOU weren’t thought of as. Communist leader the world over none of this would be so severe….I think he hates YOU not Canada….its long overdue that you go away forever with the millions you and your people have embezzled from Canadians ….You are a TRAITOR ??

E would y be in this situation if these radical liberals weren’t running and ruining our country

I have friends who served in Afghanistan and we weren't even in NATO at the time but we sent forces there because the US asked us to help. Swedish soldiers died there. Because we were your allies.

Dudes a pinhead, they had tariffs already on us which weren’t fair. Trump made the tariffs so that we get back what we lost. With Canada doing this, they will be on their knees soon

If I weren’t going to Disney with the kids. I would have boycotted my trip to the USA. Canadians and Americans have always poked fun at each other, in modern history, but now, trump has created a division of hatred. You have actual Americans posting cruel comments. I guess, divide and conquer, was his plan. So sick

Nothing but one man’s ego costing us all. We all weren’t born Rich buddy!

I remember the old days when he was correcting Canadians that weren't wrong about gender ideologies.

Why weren’t you stopping the fentanyl from crossing your borders into the USA, 4 years ago. How many lives were lost because of your incompetence?

S**ts weren't expensive enough, now we are in a trade war.

Why aren't US Americans protesting? Speaking up? Hitting the streets to fight this? You are all so meek. Weren't you the ones that said that you needed guns in the government is full of traitors? Now is the time. Now it's full of traitors.

I always tried to give the left the benefit of the doubt and assume they weren't ACTUALLY trying to destroy America... but seeing how much they still continue to protect this stuff has confirmed that I was being naive.

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!!!

? first of all get it right mayor Adams is a criminal and he embezzled a lot of money from New York I grew up in the Upper East Side in New York okay and I used to like him until he was caught and and plenty of proof it's not about him doing anything about the migrants it's the fact that he changed his tune all the sudden when he's caught and Trump is willing to drop the cases as long as he goes with the flow and does with Trump says but if he doesn't he's legally allowed to bring the case back up that's why they have the case in court and the Seven judges resign because they refuse to drop a case a new was being dropped for political reasons not because he wasn't guilty and the fact that Trump had in writing that he could bring the charges back up there's only one thing that can mean if he doesn't go with the flow and be a good little soldier and doesn't do exactly what the orange buffoon tells them they can bring the charges back up that's never been done and is highly suspect that's called blackmail!\n\nBy the way a Democrats don't disagree with deportation and not letting illegal violent criminals into the country but we do disagree with separating women children and babies from their mothers and fathers and we do disagree with just deporting people that are brown black and Muslim many of them that aren't even violent now you can't tell me that it's the most racist deportation ever you name any Canadian any Australian or european that's being deported that's here illegally there's plenty of them I have plenty of friends that know people they work with that are Australian and Canadian and European that are illegally you don't see them getting deported I wonder why they're all white that's why!\n\nTrump wants to say he's only deporting violent criminal gang members more than half of the plane that he deported to a couple of different countries had plenty of people that weren't criminals or gang members and he even ended up deporting American soldiers and vets by mistake and they used a military carrying jet that cost $242,000 for every round trip 12 hours as opposed to what every other president uses a regular Boeing style jet that cost $102,000 for that round trip now you tell me that saving money that's called just showing off and guess who pays for that and he wants to do that every day oh that's a great way to save money?\nPlay you got Trump being harsher on Canadian Mexico than our enemies China and Russia oh that's right he's budding up and siding with Russia now over Ukraine telling the world Ukraine started the war? when Putin is obviously the aggressor and the war starter who even said on TV that he would have this war 3 months and no Russians would die! You now have this clown kissing his ass and spreading Russian propaganda that zielinski is a dictator Which is far from true because if it were true Trump would be actually kissing his ass like he does with every other dictator? I'm lying about he has a 4% of ratings Which is far from the truth he's got 54% rating zelensky which are higher than Trump's right now Trump's ratings are below that and they're going down fast!\nHe is crushing in the stock market he's crushing the economy and grocery prices are sky-high thanks to his tariff solution quote that he doesn't have a clue how they work

It used to be known that at certain times during the day, various border crossing points weren’t manned just open. I can almost guarantee that’s not happening anymore. Years ago I was coming home from Montreal and waited for someone to come out and check my paperwork and license, someone heading north shouted over that no one was there until 6 so just go. I shouted back that I thought someone had to check my car and paperwork. The other guy said if you’re not worried about your stuff being checked, just go. I seriously waited weeks to hear something about it, nope, crickets…

These are Indians who were on student visas with the only intention was to fast track into entering the country. It was out of control as they were coming in by the hundreds of thousands. Crooked people were forming fake schools to get government money and these fake students weren't even attending class.\nCanadians were fed up of seeing this invasion of Indians and slimy Trudeau decided stop this quick entry scam scared he was going to lose the next election.\nThese cheaters are supposed to go home and now it looks like their looking for another scam. These people has no respect for anyone let them freeze.

The news announcer is wrong, these weren't migrants. They were illegal migrants.

What would happen back in the old days? If people crossed the line that weren't supposed to be there. Maybe we should apply some of those old school lessons to be learned

In the early 1990s I worked with a Canadian and he said it is easy to cross the border into the U.S. but getting back into Canada was a hassle even if you were a Canadian citizen, you had to show the proper documents, be searched if you looked even slightly suspicious (aka not white). Makes a lot of sense they were keeping undesirables out of Canada but weren't concerned about who was getting into the U.S.

That's weird, I thought they said there weren't anyone crossing from Canada. You're telling me they would lie?

Canada imported 1m Indians to Canada to a country that has few job, high rents and hard to survive. They knew when those migrants weren't happy, they would cross over to New York. We all know that. There are tons of them driving Uber, DoorDash. Come to Elmhurst Queens, Jersey City, Edison.

I thought Canada said our illegals in the USA weren’t coming through our northern borders

Aaand they get the money to do this , from the help of the United Nations to do this .. We need to focus on this ... Most would never be able to make it , let alone a flight on an airplane, if they weren't given the mone at certain points... Be it the Darien Gap route, or through Canada.. This is planned and facilitated by the UN ..

We were in Banff and some American people on bikes said they weren't scard of a Grizzly bear because he would shoot him in the gut....so i told him have you ever seen what happens when you piss off a Grizzly

@15:15 The only reason I can think of for a surgical procedure to charged to the patient in Toronto than in Seattle would be if it were cosmetic. I used to manage a walk-in clinic in Toronto 20 years ago and it was always elective procedures that weren’t covered.

Why weren't they stopped on the mexican side?

Fun fact… When prisoners of the United States are being transported from point a to point B they are handcuffed in shackled for safety reasons! Not for the prisoners sake, but for the people watching them. The staff to prisoner ratio does not match ergo somebody needs to be locked up. Same scenario on a plane. Let’s just say hypothetically there were 100 people on board this plane who are not happy about going back home and you’re lucky if you maybe have 3 to 4 soldiers watching over these 100 people and they weren’t handcuffed and shackled… What do you think is gonna happen? They are going to rush these soldiers and kill them. And then they are going to go after the pilot. If somebody does not want to go home to their native country, they will run the risk of dying rather than touching down on their native land soil.

He’s deporting people who are here legally and awaiting processing. Immigration process is long and expensive. Unless you’re wealthy. So imagine doing it the right way and this happens. We tried to tell people but no one listened. I’m black and I already know they are gonna harass us and ask us for our papers. And racists whites don’t care. MAGA= racists. That is how we see you. They truly think that being a “true “ American is being white. My grandmother was black and Choctaw. They saw it and see it differently. Her grandmother was killed by the slave master because she refused to have anymore of his children. Many of us are descendants of rapists. Trumps people weren’t even in the country at that time and when they did come here grandpappy Trumf was running a bordello in Alaska.

That's an invasion. They need to deploy national guard down there. If the cartels weren't so strong down there Mexico could do better.

Lol, now they're learning they weren't white all along. \nI remember the shock in East Africa when Obama had our own mass deportation. He deported people into active aar zones, straight yo their deaths. \nIf we got past it, they'll get past it.

Good they weren't sent to El Salvador.

These were illegals criminals who are being deported! They don’t want to be on this planes!! They’re not getting first class seats and being served food and drinks and being sent to cities in red states and being paid to vote Democrat!! If they’re weren’t handcuffed it’d be ConAir all over again!! How stupid are these clowns!!

They lucky they weren't sent to Camp Gitmo

How do these illegals expect to be treated? Do they expect to be served with a silver platter on board the plane ? Considering the fact that they entered the country illegally they can consider themselves lucky they weren’t shipped out via sea.

I saw on the News all these Indians jumping up and down celebrating when Trump won the election. They don't look too happy now. These Indians thought they weren't going to get deported. You get what you all voted for. ?

Being an Indian and who lived abroad (legally) for half a decade i will only say this you shouldn’t be migrating to a country illegally,if you are there illegally you should be ready for getting treated as someone who broke the law.The Indian government statement read its just protocol which is actually true.As a fellow indian i do feel sorry for the people who got deported but again you weren’t there legally,You should have expected this to be a possibility when you took the decision to cross the border illegally.

Cry me a river about those illegals. My Black American slave ancestors were shackled, chained and weren't even considered human beings for 250 years in the United States.
