Everyone please understand we were trying to vote against this. The 92% and 87% stands with you and everyone else who had voted for democracy stands with you Canada ??❤️

I don't blame you guys, just know and understand that not all Americans voted for this. Please pray for us.?

I am so overwhelmed by the fact that I am powerless against my own governments idiotic actions that completely destabilize the world. Please understand that over half of Americans are just as shocked as Canadians, and we love you as our neighbors. We let a ruthless dictator brainwash our vulnerable and uneducated and exploit every crack in our system to get here. I’m very scared for what’s to come and it sucks so badly that we all have to pay for an egrogious act of an elderly nepo baby that doesn’t understand how government and the world works.

Donald Trump is not listening. In fact Donald Trump is himself quite greedy and his government is an Authoritarian regime or an oligarchy. please understand he , Donald Trump is now evil in his decisions world wide.

Please Sir, know this is Trump. Half of Americans did not want this monster that is Putin's puppet. I understand your stance. He's a crazy man that doesn't care about the majority of Americans. If I could leave, I would. May God help us all.

Trudeau, you are awesome! Please understand most Americans don’t want this! Please don’t hold this against us! God Bless Canada! Please Europe allies don’t hold this against us, I am with you!

My message to Trudeau: I understand your decision and sympathized with Canada for a problem that Canadians had no control over. Please ban tesla and Starlink in Canada in addition to the other measures you are taking

I am an American, please stand together. Our country is not and I am sure it shows. We here in the states need to gain control of our Rogue Government and it will not be easy. Many of our citizens have been removed from the voting roles and many politicians have been bribed or threaten into submission. We have a hard road ahead to gain back our country ... please remember, most Americans understand and would not choose to harm any of our friends and neighbors.

What Canada needs to understand is that you have a problem with our president? You don’t need to have a problem with all Americans we all support Canada so please understand that. It’s two people put the hurt on them don’t punish innocent Americans we love you guys.

Keep standing proud, Canada, and Ukraine. Most Americans definitely understand that this is unnecessary and not what we as a nation stand for. Don't be bullied, or shamed into any deal with this administration. It's full of greed and absolutely untrustworthy. Please don't blame us all. I'm a metro Detroit resident. Canada is my neighbor and friend.

Trudeau is so handsome and smart and good. I wish he was our leader here in the US. Can you come here and help us, please? We need help. I understand why you have to fight back against Trump. I can't stand Trump and what he and our government is doing but I don't know how to stop it. I sure didn't vote for him. Thank you Mr. Trudeau for all of your great work and commitment and governance. I stand with Canada.

I am American and support Canada and Mexico’s actions wholeheartedly. That said, I feel you guys are still bending backwards. Please don’t. Talking about fentanyl is nonsense. The man child you are dealing with only understand one thing — strength and sting men. So man up and throw some punches, otherwise he will call you next to White House and ask you to rub your nose. Cheers!

From America, the world really acts like we owe them something.\n\nWe get called imperialists when we help, cowards and weaklings when we don’t, we get reprimanded and shit on about how we should get our nose out of everyone’s business. The rest of the world seems to have a hate boner for the US yet can’t even be bothered to figure out how to not start new world wars, can’t even be bothered to take in and handle their own refugees, can’t even be bothered to help your own people.\n\nWe The People are growing real tired of our treatment on the world stage. Furthermore, we have our own issues. We have to focus on our own country and people, because as it stands many of us are struggling to figure out how to pay rent without picking up 2nd jobs or side hussle’s. Please understand this, we voted for Donald Trump. Flaws and all. He didn’t cheat or steal his way in. He isn’t a threat to democracy, or the stability of Europe. He’s and American president for America and if any non Americans wanna take issue with that. Then come get your citizenship and vote for it, but until then, stop crying about what America is doing and focus on your own country. Who knows, if you do your own country might actually be notable enough for you to understand my frustrations :)

While I don’t agree with Trumps tariffs, I understand why he’s doing them. As a Canadian citizen, please don’t glamorize Trudeau- hes a spoiled rotten brat of a former PM. Nothing more. You’ve not lived the last 10 years under his totalitarian govt, suspending the rights of Canadians at will, insulting and dividing our country at will, taking away legal firearms owners rights rights at will (people who had to pass safety courses and are more vetted than RCMP officers). \n\nHe’s proven to be more fake than a $3 dollar bill. All the liberal & ndp’s in Canada are. He has the worst record in Canadian history as a PM, including the highest taxes, home prices, massive, unsustainable immigration, and the worst healthcare crisis in Canada’s socialized medical system since its inception. \n\nHe’s accumulated more debt than all previous PM’s COMBINED (as per the PBO). \n\nThen he comes on here after he resigned on Jan.6th - yes after cratering Canada’s economy methodically for the last 10 yrs - to inflame the POTUS and who will pay for that? Canadian and American working class citizens. \n\nIf you think Canada is so great, you’re either a wealthy boomer, or have no clue what it’s like to work for a living in this modern economy in Canada. People are required to work 2-3 jobs just to afford the basics. Wages have been stagnant since the 90’s here, with cost of living rising 600-700% in the last 10 yrs.

How can the msm and their guests say they don't understand why he's doing this? If you look at every thing Trump does thru the lense of pleasing Putin and putting Rudssia and China's agenda first, it all makes sense. It's time to start calling this what it is. A traitorous president is selling out his own country and countrymen. He needs to he stopped bamn before its too late. This is not Amerixa first, it's America last.

Please help me understand this, it's a trade war to tariff someone equally who has been tariffing you 25% for years? Why was it not a trade war when Canada was tariffing the US with 25% when the US was charging Canada nothing

It is time to understand Trump only exposes pretext that aren't really his concerned he just want to have an excuse to do what he wants to do and this is grabbing some resources punching external allies etcetera it is time to understand that nothing will please Donald Trump government so it is time to bypass America this is very sad for some of us that have made business with American businesses and companies it is not easy it is not good to overnight rethink everything because of that guy in the White House

Please don't think we the people agree with what's happening. I love Canada I've spent many wonderful times in Canada. I don't understand how this can be happening. Please don't blame us the people we don't want this either.❤❤❤❤

Canadians and other nations subject to tariffs, please understand that the *only* reason Trump used fentanyl as a pretext for tariffs is to bypass Congress, because the president can only put tariffs without Congress in matters of national security. Fentanyl is simply a pretext enabling Trump to do whatever he wants.

I know we have to be addressed as the entire country but for those of us that didn't want this and voted for Harris we are so ashamedand angry. please Canadians forgive those of us that never wanted this to happen. But we understand what you need to do now.

dear Mr. Treudeau, i want u to know i did not pick pres. chump. i understand why you are doing what you are doing. please keep all your people safe. with love to all of from wisconsin

Sir can you please stop lecturing other countries people. You with all your EU ally know a war coming and it's a bad one so instead forcing it to get more worse discuss ,be reasonable ,make deal with your enemy that benefits both side . That will possibly stop ww3 . Dont be arrogant, dont gamble with ww3 understand the situation make the right choice

Have you thought about the corruption from Ukraine? They are not an ally. I’m a veteran also. Served 14 years, not just 4 like most. Please understand that hundreds of billions of dollars and equipment have been sent over there. What more can they be given?

As a proud and sane Canadian I understand most Americans are not in line with the current administration in this and I implore my fellow Canadians in joing me to remain respectful of our American friends neighbors and relatives. Please cheer for the American National Anthem and repect the American flag. Donald Trump and his phonies will pay for their stupidity. To all Americans please don't take retaliation personally, but it must be done to protect our Country and our sovereignty. Trumps tariffs have nothing to do with drugs and the border. It has everything to do with his insane dream of being the ruler of the world.

Please understand this is not how everyone feels. I am so sad that you are being treated like this and I am so sorry.

I hope atleast some Canadians read my text. We have a madman in office.. A huge mistake on our part. Please do what you need to to do. It is money that seems to be the only think this monster understand. Im am other understand your position. I think Don old has gone crazy.

Most Educated and Informed Americans understand whats going on and dont blame Canada. Please bare with US while we go thru this turbulent time. Hopefully we will be reunited in REAL friendship again.

Please understand that not all American people support trump. Not all of us support Russia. ALOT of us support Canada and Ukraine!!!!

Oh Canada... Us like minded need to align tighter now that Trump is misleading USA with lies and putin's advises. Let's hope Americans wake up and understands that the orange man is dangerous to them. Please don't let his Crypto scam happen. Thank you Trudeau for being a voice of a reason.

Canada: please understand some of us are so sorry.

Brother please write our President and Elon. I don’t think they understand how democracy works!

Anyone who ever was a victim of bullying understands exactly what is going on and how it will end for those who wants to appease/bend to the bully. Yes, it will be painful for Canada, extremely. But you have to get really sick in order to recover stronger than ever before. Zelensky knew the inner workings of how bullies work so he probably knew the white house meeting won't end cordially especially it is occupied by people he has no love for and he understood the lack of love was mutual. I think he'd bent over and wagged his tail if he thought that'd help his nation but knowing that will not get his country anywhere anyways, why would he bend over and try to please someone who was determined to screw him and his country to begin with. Zelensky saw how Canadian prime minister was treated and how he tried to please Mr. T yet to no avail. Yes, Zelensky has no real good, readily available cards to play. If the game is rigged, no reason to play by your rule, is there?

As an American I am ashamed of the actions of our president Mr.SprayTan. Please understand this is NOT what a lot of Americans wanted. It is the wants of bigots, racists, narcissists and dictators that made this happen..I stand with Canada, Ukraine and Europe.

Leftist US cities are such shitholes now that I don't understand why anyone would WANT to be there. Send me to India instead please. At least there, not every. single. person. is an asshole.

Put a fucking concrete wall to Canada border, 98,7 % Hard drugs in Canada come from USA border !!!, 96,3 % of illegal migrants in Canada come from USA border !!! 100 % illegal Guns in Canada come from USA Border..... please orange garbage bag closed the fucking border and no more trade.... to explain for low educated compare Canada with under 39 millions peoples and America 433 millions peoples, take your time to understand the only true, not from fox family.... Canada vs USA for 1 illegal migrants enter in USA from Canada, 1000 illegal migrants enter in Canada from USA, For guns 100 % illegal Guns enter in Canada come from USA, 0.00 % illegal Guns enter in USA from Canada, no one..... they're more drugs dealers USA that Canada have citizens, included kids, olders, priest etc.....

When can Indians understand difference between legitimate students and the wrong doers under student visa. Being a Canadians I can guarantee that Canada or any other country is not against any legitimate student. The countries are against the garbage and scammers entering into their country. Please show the facts and stop saying Indian students. Say clearly the wrong doers. Thanks.

I'm from Brazil, living in Brazil, and would like to understand why the drug crises happened in Canada? Because everyone complain but not explain the real cause. It seems that the answer could ofend people because is a political platform related to the liberals. Please, someone could say something about it with honesty? Because it could happen in anyplace throughout the world. The Canada case is very important because it was a very rich country that degraded itself very fast.

Foreigner who wish to settled abroad. Kindly, understand the immigration law the land of that country. Please don't blame others instead blame yourself abusing their system.

PROJECT 2025 is real and being put into place - Please America - READ the document that is the blueprint for your country under Trumps Administration. Google the highlights and understand - you are not part of the elite - you do not matter - and you will suffer as a fascist and authoritarian dictatorship get put into place.

I hate trump supporters and the president right now because they got rid of the law that protected black people. I do not understand why almost every white people would hate people's skin. I hate that they are trying to recreate World War 2. Please veto Trump because he is doing the wrong thing. He even made another law that if you catch a person that crossed the border, they get 1,000 thousand dollars. Trump shouldn't be president because of the bad things now he has done. Tiktok is banned because of him.

can someone tell me this is not invasion? please help me understand. If a group of people trying to jump the fence to get into your house, would you stop them?

But one thing I don’t understand , sorry my economics wasn’t good at school , if a country increases tariffs on imports coming to its own people, would it decrease consumer prices to its own people ? Please lecture me here .

You still not understanding how tariffs works or the economy .Sir, please pick up a book or just Google it!!!

If you can't pay rent, to me it's straight forward you are not a good person go build your own house, that's when you will understand what it takes to build a house, please this shocks me, some one build a house puts it on rent and you are refusing to pay the rent that's not fair this breaks my heart

Unfortunately, have to agree with the fact that some Indians have exploited the visa process and made it a mess for the remaining well intentioned legal residents. Lack of proper manners, over staying, misusing the privilege, list goes on. Please understand: we need to follow rules. We are a law abiding country. Not everything is perfect, neither in India or anywhere. That does not give you the right to break rules blatantly. We don't want illegal immigrants, why would some other country want that. Read, learn and improve. Good luck.

The process for Visa and the backup documents is pretty transparent and available at the country's or VFS website. I have been travelling to Europe and my visa has not been rejected. But I still do see a lot of people not understanding the process, documentation required. The documentation is usually about proof of stay, proof of travel and proof of financial strength. Please do not talk about the 5th largest economy. We are 143rd in GDP per capita. Among the illegal immigrants into USA India ranks third, to the UK it ranks 9th and is a significant number into the EU. With immigration a hot topic in the west today, this was inevitable.

Ms. Sharma please do not MISLEAD + CONFUSE viewers in name of Nationalism.\n\n\nIf it is news worthy, I think PM office should RETURN the favors to ALL these countries and stop issuing VISAS.\n\nAs far as I know [and i can be corrected] visa fees are on a equal footings [in terms of cost] . But ofcourse, if fewer people apply for Indian visa revenue for Indian government woll be lower.\n\nPlease understand the subject matter and then report it and NO DISINFORMATION or MISINFORMATION. We have TOO MUCH OF THAT.

I am japanese canadian , I understand the feeling of Indians for being discriminated against but there is nothing that can be done, this is a free country, please stay safe and don't be weak always.

I’m an American of Indian descent and I- now- understand why my parents never wanted to immigrate to Canada. …This is so sad and I hope Canada changes and kicks out Trudeau. Canadians, please, fight back! \n\nYours truly, \n\n-?? ?

My question is how are visa issued even without proper background check. Should not they check the authenticity of the application. I understand most of the indians from some part of the country want to migrate so desperately thats also wrong. Please make sure you keep on including background check in future immigration visa atleast. But I am also happy to that they are getting deported because karma is a bitch.
