Why do Canadians continue to vote for the same liberal disastrous government? We needed a change many years ago, but Canadians are deaf, dumb and blind! Our government is actively working 'against' citizens and not 'for' citizens. They have an agenda to replace citizens with these new immigrants who will work for much lower wages. It is all about giving jobs to migrants and for the elite to get richer.

The problem is the taxpayers pay for other peoples benefits plus the problem is the people voted for their own downfall, third the solutions are to not vote blindly and to start businesses so their are more jobs to fill, sell to the migrants.

I just don't anderstand why our stupid government so blind. We are fed up with amigration policies. My country going to hell if we're not screaming about this ....

No blind eyes in Canada. Our millions of generations of taxpayers and family members that fought and died in multiple wars. Our politicians decided to ignore. The workforce theory is.b.s Otherwise covid wouldn't have destroyed it. At the same time immigration quadrupled.

I think due to the prosperity and stability Canada has enjoyed for so long Canadians have developed a certain standard of living and expectations in regards to that. So no, we don't want to have to work 2-3 minimum wage paying jobs to get by, no we don't want to live 4 or more to a 400 sqft studio apartment, yes we want to be able to afford our own homes, yes we want to be able to achieve a stable middle class lifestyle. That doesn't work for the crony capitalists who's greed and lust for power always needs satiating. So we have the Liberal government bringing in more immigrants than we have infrastructure to accommodate in an effort to keep wages down so profits can always be up. Immigrants who are willing to accept a lower quality of life than what most Canadians expect/accustom to because it's still superior to where they came from. So the quality of life for all Canadians is exponentially reduced. We are to accept a lower quality of life and if we resist then we are branded with all kinds of derogatory names; racist, xenophobe, fascist, unacceptable fringe, far-right extremists, et al. What's undeniable is that before the Liberals took power in 2015 we had an immigration system in Canada that worked quite well and that since the Liberals took power our immigration system is a destructive mess. This isn't by accident or incompetence, it's intentional, by design. Unfortunately Canada has a problem with so much of our population being ideologically blind, willingly ignorant, easily manipulated, cowardly staying in an abusive relation with our current oppressive government. Question is can the country be saved before too much damage is done?

Canada was lost when Justin and his father turned a blind eye to Khalistanis in name of vote bank politics

It’s not about colour!! It’s about belligerence,arrogance,and don’t give a shit attitude about the Canada!! Sorry but I’m not nice to the one’s who get around with that attitude!! When in Rome do what the Roman’s do!! I’m an immigrant as well,and my blood is boiling with these species!! Thank Trudeau and now us clown carney!! What it is doing is causing a lot of hate, Canadians need to get off their asses and start voicing and pushing back on this situation than turning a blind eye!! The ones who shouldn’t be here need to be deported!!

Coincidence that Trump is normalizing aggressive unilateral international actors as he blindly initiates a trade war?

Wow, Trudeau called the president Trump by his first name and then called him dummy. What a leader Trudeau is, a real model for the rest of the world. He is so brave and courageous. Uhhhh.. actually he is a -wether- and he is just too stupid and blind to know it.

Donald is a convicted felon so I’m hardly surprised that he’s robbing tax payers blind and leaving the security and economic stability of the US off his priority list. He’s there to sifen as much money as possible until he’s kicked out or until he has enough to buy Gaza, and whatever portion of Ukraine Putin has promised him if he lets Russia win. All this is to in four years use the money he stole to build Trump Resorts ?️ on both plots of land and be hailed as an intelligent businessman by people who refuse to pick up a book ?

We, the people, don't have free education, many students own loans from universities.\nWe can not buy houses, and no programs help us.\nWe (USA)have a lot of homeless, criminals, people with mental health, PEOPLE ADDICTIVE TO HEAVY DRUGS, plus the alcohol, weed, cigarettes, undecated young people, 30 percent only have a banchelors degree the 70 percent in the whole country don't have university education and not counting young people getting pregnant with toxic partners and their kids repeat the same poisonous life affecting their generations touching lives in a bad way.\nUSA has a lot of potholes in the roads, our foods have over 300 harmful chemicals to harm our health, the health system sucks, education is low teacher teach with youtube and are lazy to teach, educational system is super slow to process student classes or to advice them they make a mess in the documentation of the payments or financial aid, we have to baby sit the educational system to do their jobs and get things done, the food so expensive the egg, milk, vegetable, fruits, gas so expensive it never went down we still paying in LA 5 dollar per gallon to 6.50.\nUSA RENT are for the roofs some states do not even have rental control student loans kill people with HIGH INTEREST THEY GO AFTER YOUR HOME CAR TAXES .\nthe government is not to serve it wants the we the people serve the government.\ngovernment uses our taxes for their personal investment and we the people pay for it.\nThe USA government gives bread crumbs to its own citizens, what can other countries expect from it? The worst part is that most citizens are blind, and we need to wake up and make the government do its job instead of putting our tax money in their pockets.\ncountries need to look for their people but sadly the governments use their people very few are have justice and education.\nUSA say they help but they beat up the ones that are down and take advantages of countries that are in war USA exploit them is an investment not help USA always gets more of the double of what they help invest in countries like congo or eukrania USA want the minerals,land of eukrania and the diamond, land and resources of africa.

I stand 100% behind the man i voted for. Trump is putting America first! I am done being blind to the swamp and their idiocy. We may hurt for a little while, but America will build back better. Stronger. We dont need Canada. They are mad about tarrifs but have them on their side. Common sense. Im loving this new era.

This is what happens when you choose a blind to rule your country

Great to see a true world leader overcome a US imposter who probably smells like toilets and sweat. Wish I lived somewhere else. My mom is blind and I can't really leave her otherwise I'd be a citizen of a real nation, not this BS Potemkinville. Does JD Vance know what that term means? Do any of his unqualified, stupid goons? They are all corrupt and they are all here to destroy democracy at his whim, what a cult of fools.

This has nothing to do with fentanyl and EVERYTHING to do with Trump's fragile ego and his need to please Putin. We aren't blind down here... well half of us.

These CNN followers are so one-sided and blind . Trudeau has been terrible for canada so just stfu

Trump and Maga are like any crazy regime, absolutely full of magical thinking and not based in reality. So 2+2 = 6 and if you don’t agree, you hate America. Average Americans are expected to believe that a bunch of billionaires and companies that have been robbing them blind for 40 years will now have their backs because they are actually in government instead of just pulling the strings from the sides. Or because they trigger the right people on the Internet. . I also hate how every leader in the world has to pay some kind of false reverence to Trump even though they all know he’s nuts out of some kind of decorum. Just want somebody with balls to get up and say fuck him and fuck his lunacy. And shove your decorum up your arse because Trump doesn’t have any. It’s about time you realise what you’re dealing with and pull the gloves off. Playing nice and nice and reasonable is only playing into his hands.

He spoke eloquently using FACTS not LIES like Donald Trump. He didn’t sugar coat anything. He spoke directly to Donald. \n\nTRUMP has been making DUMB DECISIONS over and over. THIS TIME is being controlled and e has shown to the world thatHE IS THE PUPPET of a ?BILLIONAIRE IMMIGRANT WHOSE GOAL IS TO CONVERT THE US TO A COMMUNIST COUNTRY imitating HITLER. \n\nDonald LIED to VOTERS promising to reduce inflation and increase jobs. Donald please STOP BEING PUPPET OF ELON, VANCE. And all others. \n\nTHIS IS NOT HOW TO MAKE THE US GREAT AGAIN… YOU ARE MAKING IT THE WORST and destroying everything great former leaders worked hard to build. \n\nYOUR EGO is making you blind. \nYOU LIED using God’s name in vain to obtain votes. \n\nWORST ADMINISTRATION IN HISTORY\n\nGod sees everything.

This is positive leadership, whereas Trump's is lacking in sanity and sensitivity. Trump is dumb, blind and deaf to the rest of the world but all ears, all eyes and all praise to Putin.

Too bad Trump supporters are blinded and will see this as nothing but propaganda.

Why are Western leaders blind-sighted by what Trump is doing? For many years now the US is declining slowly, slowly and then suddenly under the Biden Administration....Pres Trump has no choice but to take drastic action to stop the collapse of the US Empire. What he is doing many may be against but one thing is for sure. Pres Trump is putting America first and this is what good leaders do...

Putin’s Dream Come True…few more steps to World Domination w MAGAts following suit - Drump & Elona blindly, gleefully & swiftly tearing down the USA in every possible way\n\nIt’s almost comical how Drump pretends to be a tough guy - he’s just following orders

Kudos to the PM Trudeau for speaking out against Trump tariffs. Mr. Trudeau sees what the Trump voters fail to see prior to the elections. Trump is using the excuse of stopping drugs coming into the country. When in reality his tariffs will only benefit corporations. These tariffs will be passed down to the consumers who will pay for them. If everyone who voted for Trump weren't deaf and blind we would not have to now worry more about inflation and higher prices. All those who blamed Biden for increased prices should have looked back at the pandemic that Trump failed to acknowledge.

SHUT UP JUSTIN WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR PEOPLE YOU CUT OFF THEIR FOOD FUNDS DURING COVID BECAUSE TRUCK DRIVERS WOULDN'T GET A CALL WITH A TRUCK DRIVERS DON'T NEED A COVID SHOT THEY'RE IN THE TRUCK ALONE ALL DAY EVERYDAY, CANADA'S GOVERMENT, U JUSTIN , STOP ? LETTING PEOPLE, INCLUDING WHITE COLLAR CRIMINALS CHANGE THEIR IDENTITY, THEIR LAST NAME IN CANADA , INTO A HINDU , EUROPEAN or even ASIAN LAST NAME,\nBECAUSE \nCriminals plan on coming into the UNITED States and ROBBING USA BLIND BY COMMITTING USA CLASS X FELONY FRAUD AND THEFT OF ALL THE USA BENEFITS PROGRAMS.\nSTOP LETTING CRIMINALS INTO your COUNTRY and HIRE their IDENTITY because CANADA creates a WHOLE NEW IDENTITY CRIMINALS , so they can come into AMERICA and HIDE their CRIMINAL IDENTITY , CAREER CRIMINALS come into your country and CANADA GIVES CRIMINALS NEW FICTITIOUS IDENTITIES AND FACTITIOUS IDS giving them fictitious identities with fictitious IDs, so they can come into the United States and commit massive { USA class X FEDERAL FELONY FRAUD and THEFT of all the USA benefit programs.\nJUSTIN YOU ARE SUCH A LIAR BECAUSE MOST OF THE CRIMINAL MUSLIM TERRORISTS IN THE USA COME FROM CANADA THEY CHANGE THEIR WHOLE IDENTITY IN CANADA, CANADA PRODUCES FICTITIOUS BIRTH CERTIFICATES FICTITIOUS IDS FOR MUSLIM TERRORIST

I am an American citizen and I stand with you Canada!!! Thank you for protecting yourself and those of us not blind to the very obvious corruption.

Big man, good speech; I wonder how the weakening will effect the world, and how it will affect Russia. Russia will gain strength by this. Ucraine will lose even more strength. Putin hast found Somebody who ist so self-blinded and really stupid enough that Russia will gain the best of it: weak States won't bei a Problem any more. I really am afraid, this ist evil. St. Jänsch, Germany

Trump is a Russian Agent, everything he is doing is for Putin - all rational and intelligent people know this. I don't know why the MAGA cult choose to remain blind and deaf to the dealings going on but those of us who refuse to join the cult can clearly see that Trump's actions belie his words. He is a liar and a Traitor who is owned by Putin.

omfg who is trump not beefing with at this point ? people are so fcking stupid the way they blindly kiss his @ss just cus he has a reputation

All these years US has a trade deficit of 1 trillion dollars every year. With tariffs we could have recovered 250 billion every year. That is a lot of money. Currently every American owes $110,000 because of the accumulated debt of 36.5 trillion.\n\nJustin, how long are we supposed to bend back wards while US has a trade deficit of trillion dollar over the past 20 years. Why cant to you balance the imports and exports so that you don't have to keep taking advantage of USA. CNN did not see the trade deficit every single year for 20 years? what are they talking about? Our news channels have just become political entities rather than looking for the greater good of the Americans. One is for Republicans and others for Democrats - ridiculous. \n\nCanada and Mexico are saying, please stop tariffs, it is going to hurt America. LOL. No it is not. If tariffs were there in 2024, US would have gotten back 15 billion dollar revenue from Canada and Mexico would have paid 46 billion to USA. All this time, this was affecting only Americans and while you are enjoying not paying for your share, you have made US pay by taking loans to pay for the imports increasing our Debt. Yes it has been hurting America for the past 20 years, otherwise how did we accumulate 36.5 trillion debt.\n\nLike Justin said, if Canada can survive while paying 15 billion to USA, of course USA will do fine while collecting the 15 billion from Canada and 46 billion form Mexico. What do you all think that the public is blind?\n\nTo the American Public: Why would we impose tariffs, if that is going to hurt the US. And why are Canada and Mexico shaking in their boots? It would be naive, if you think it is out of their good heart. It had been hurting US for the past 20 years and they did not care. This time it is going to hurt them so all this fuss. The bottom line is that they don't want to pay all the excess that they have been dumping on us while they were benefiting. USA will use the revenue generated (total around 250 billion for 2025 form tariffs) to reduce our tax, make things more affordable, inject in to our own businesses and generate more employment.

You people are so blind why should u.s pay canadas tariffs, but canada doesnt have to pay. 25% for 25% lets do it lets see who caves 1st

Everything Trudeau is saying should be reasonable and sensible to every American, that is every American that isn't either a blind faith follower of Trump, or someone profiting from Trump and his policies. Sadly there are just so very many of them.

Trump is burning the house down to test if that would warm the house faster. The man is a total imbecile living on a golden toilet with a phone that puts him in a bubble surrounded by psychopaths, cultists and wanna-be oligarchs beholden to a KGB agent specialised since the '70ties to manipulate gullible foreign business men. \n\nThere exist no scenario in which this will end well before the 4 years run out, he will destroy the western world though either is own greed&ego fuelled stupidity, his blinded with white power hate cultists or the wanna be oligarchs. STOP THIS NOW AMERICANS WHILE YOU STILL CAN AND WHILE YOU STILL HAVE A COUNTRY AND NEIGHBOURS THAT RESPECT YOU.

Robert De Niro’s statement on Donald is perfect. \n\n “I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly. I see an evil one. Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped. Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them. We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016. The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags. The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse. Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously. So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America: This is our last chance. Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator. And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided. So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls. We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them. Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect. Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity. Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world. Safety for our families. Decency. Let’s welcome them back. We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.””

I am not republican or democrat and not a blind supporter of any leader. I criticize Trump as well-BUT - No one damaged Canada as much as this guy! He did so bad that he had to resign- he’s not even worthy of being the leader of Canada! He is simply using the opportunity to cover his incompetence! PATHETIC! This guy is embarrassing himself and his country!

Why is America so blind to what is going on

Those who voted for that want to be dictator, America down fall is on your hands. Yall silly,gullible,rabbits. Your hate, division, racism, sided with that criminal. The suffering we'll all will go through is on your hands. How about those $16.00 eggs? You voted against everything that was good for US ALL. You silly rabbits. You had NO Spiritual Discernment, just bigotry, blind to WHO, & WHAT that man is, you didnt care. You silly foolishness, deceived rabbits. May God have mercy on us. It's going to be a longgggg 4yrs. That is if he don't crown himself as king. Demonic spirits are leading the FREE WORLD. Dear God

I hope my fellow Americans stop blindly following trump and get all these current idiots out of our government \nWish I could leave and come back when trump is gone

He is right Canada ? at is trump doing at all same reason he is selling American government houses we the seniors can't afford higher food is ridiculous. We don't count any way we only worked 30 years to be poore is not worth it to work with illness like I did heart patient and sle lupus and many more and that never stopt me from working only to find out I be poor when I have to retire why why are seniors so poore. We worked for our money know we go with out meds just to make sure we have a little food ? sorry about the spelling I am going blind and I wars going blind from lupus why I wars still working

WOW, Prime Minister Trudeau, Canada is very proud of YOU!!!!!!!!!! and that kind of leadership is what we needed in the USA. Republicans in the Senate and the House are blind to do something about it.

You republicans are going to wake up one day and wonder what happened to you. You are in for a rude awaking. Your the idiot. You are blind.

I love Americans, you're always welcome here. Trump has the right to do what's best for America, but Canada needs to start building a strong partnership with more stable and predictable countries like China and certain EU nations. No more blindly following the US in their foreign policy endeavors and wars for Israel.

Looks like Americans are idiots! Wait, I'm an American.....but I didn't vote for him! We are not all blind and stupid. We love you Canada and Ukraine ❤ I'm ashamed of what tRUMP is doing. ?

There are a lot of people here in America that absolutely can't stand Trump. That didn't vote for him and wish that what is going on in America is just a nightmare. \nPeople are protesting , wishing more politicians would stand up to Trump and the government he is creating. \nHow can people be so blind to his ways. I don't hold Canada or any other nation raising the tariffs. Im beside myself on the way my country is going.

Yeah, pretend to care when it matters. But turn a blind eye to the financial burden you’ve screwed Canadian’s over with during the past 9 years. You resigned over a month Justin ago, get out. We want a real leader.

How is imposing a 25% tariff helping the canadian people exactly? Except making us pay even more in an already hard inflation context. \nYour own ego is blinding you, Trudeau.

This man ruined Canada! Out of control immigration, massive rise in the price of real estate, cost of living and CRIME whilst the lowering of the quality of life of Canadians. \n\nPeople are blindly applauding an incompetent whom most Canadians hate.

I AM ??\nand I support President Trump?? and Putin in Russia ?? \n\nZelensky is another pick pocketeer and any pocket will do- he can be compared to Hamas \n\nPeople require eyes to see thru - the physical ones won’t do - blind to the enemy which makes you’s one too

You follow the money trail of China and Canadian dealings ,an investigative journalist did and found precursor supplies to make fentanyl heavily coming into Canada from China, being assembled in Canada, then shipped to mexico drug cartels from Canada, then entering US across mexican US border....so how is Canada not to blame when RCMP know of drug labs in Canada and turn blind eye as do the politicians, and meanwhile China launders the drug money through real estate and casinos. No one wants to address the elephant in the room. Life is easier while Blind, till it isn't!

Can Trump Become a Dictator Like Putin? \nTrump has authoritarian tendencies, but turning the U.S. into a full dictatorship like Putin’s Russia would be extremely difficult. Here’s why: \n1⃣ The U.S. Has Strong Institutional Barriers \nUnlike Russia, where Putin gradually dismantled democracy, the U.S. has checks and balances (Congress, courts, states, the military). \nTrump tried to challenge the system, but courts often ruled against him, showing that he doesn’t have full control. \nTo become a true dictator, he would need to take over the judicial system, military, and elections—none of which are fully in his hands. \n? Example: \nTrump lost multiple court cases on election fraud claims, proving he does not yet have absolute control. \n2⃣ He Lacks Full Control Over the Military & Law Enforcement \nPutin controls the Russian military and secret police, allowing him to silence opposition. \nIn the U.S., the military swears loyalty to the Constitution, not the president. \nTrump tried to use the military against protesters, but military leaders refused, signaling that they wouldn’t blindly follow him. \n? Example: \nOn Jan 6, 2021, Trump encouraged an attack on the Capitol, but the military did not intervene on his behalf. \n3⃣ American Democracy is Deeply Embedded in Culture \nUnlike Russia, where people are used to strongmen leaders, Americans are culturally resistant to dictatorship. \nU.S. citizens, journalists, and activists openly resist government overreach, making it harder for an authoritarian to rise. \nFree press and independent media make it difficult to spread unchecked propaganda the way Putin does in Russia. \n? Example: \nTrump was impeached twice, showing that Congress still holds power over the president. \n4⃣ Trump’s Path to Dictatorship Would Require More Control Over Elections \nPutin rigged elections, eliminated opponents, and rewrote laws to stay in power. \nTrump has tried to change voting laws and delegitimize elections, but the system still blocked him. \nIf Trump could fully control elections, he could remove opposition and rule indefinitely. \n? Example: \nHe’s trying to install loyalists in key election positions for 2024, but this does not guarantee full control. \n5⃣ Could He Still Try? Yes. Could He Succeed? Unlikely (For Now). \n✔ Trump has authoritarian instincts and wants more power. \n✔ He is trying to weaken institutions to increase control. \n✔ But the U.S. system makes dictatorship much harder than in Russia. \n✔ Unless he completely controls elections, the courts, and the military, he cannot rule like Putin.
