Why did childbirth plummet. My opinion two reasons one online dating / other websites. 2 Casa living is too high and people don't want to bring a child into this Earth

eneralAetius4705 1 second ago I see more Black people snd Muslims in downtown Edmonton than people of my cultural background....with deep roots and mixed background. We just want it reduced. We do mot need to feel obligated. A shortage of TFWs for Wendy's is no national fckn emergency You'd do well to remember....you never had an empire here. Don't like it my opinion? Buzz off!

About 15 years ago, my sister in law wanted to bring her father here from South Africa; however, immigration said "no, because he was acriskbto the Canadian health system". They couldnt even bring him over even with the promise to pay out of pocket for healthcare should it be needed. I find it utterly disgusting that as a born Canadian citizen I can't get a job, proper healthcare and live in a culture where immigrants (not all if them do this) thumb their noses at us. These immigrants, in my opinion, have NO intention of learning the english language either. I can't figure out why some of them even bothered coming to Canada because they haven't left their crap where they came from. It is no wonder Poland is the way they are about Immigration.

Isn't that sick 2 people? 7 or 8 years in jail for peaceful protest. I hope so many Canadians come out to defend them. I'll be one of them. Government. Pretty d*** disgusting, Trudeau. Made that happen telling my neighbors when they had an extra person in the house. Go to hell. I can't stand none of you. I totally agree with that woman speaking about this. I refused to totally hate myself for my opinion. I see. What's going on? It's a takeover.

I must say it is refreshing to hear the same opinion from immigrants that did things the correct legal way and for the right reasons. I thank all of you for speaking up surely you can't be labeled racists etc for speaking the truth! I can tell you right now if I was to go to another country I would not get there illegally and take advantage of anything and everything I can from that countries government while showing hate for that very country. I sure as hell would not expect society in that country to bow down and be forced to accept and support the ways I knew from being from Canada. It blows my mind to see the level of entitlement and ignorance! Canada is dying........quick

13:35…make NO mistake, majority of Taiwanese folks would NOT even consider immigrate to this damn place. I don’t know where you got your stats from, but you’re very wrong in your opinion.

As a French Canadian, I won’t say I am not racist. Not because I am. Because if you excuse yourself (like one does when saying they are not racist before giving a normal opinion), you already lost. That being said, who is with me to deport last 20 years of immigration? Only chance to get our country back.

They can’t even say the name our language Punjabi properly and you expect their outdated opinions to be credible.

Yes you more babies to have a child tax credit and you don’t to work right? In my opinion

The points system is why Canadians have a good impression of immigrants. When you let in english or french speaking well or over-educated new citizens, people will have a good impression of these hardworking people. When you let in gobs of just anyone.. you end up with Brampton, Ontario, or Sweden, where foreign nationals have brought their own opinion of how life should be to a previously high trust/well functioning area. Like the opposite of gentrification. Basically slumification, a reduction in trust, an increase in crime, an increase in corruption.. Who would have thought there would one day be new Canadian citizens calling for Sharia Law in Canada? That is when immigration "jumped the shark", and the system needs fixing. And Canada already has the fix: Limit immigration to economically well off migrants who meet the points quota: ie, they are educated and speak english or french. And greatly restrict refugees... we have enough homeless and economically useless people, we do not need more.

Not a word about this in the election from Hot Air Pierre, but now your conservative rag has an opinion since India is no longer funding the election for your man. Not that I disagree that immigration in Canada is a broken mess, but now that pp mentioned it this week you’re blowing his horn. 🤔

Good the more immigrants that leave the better it will be for Canada they come here for a better life for safety for this for that they're all set up by the government giving houses cars don't have to worry about nothing it's all provided for them through the taxpayers money well the real Canadians are living out on the streets and eating out of garbage bins I don't have a bed or a roof over their heads due to the immigrants coming into our country then they come into our country in protest terrorist actions destroy our buildings are statues our churches block our streets hospitals shopping malls an etcetera they disrespect our rules and regulations and think they can voice their opinion on everything and get away with it they come here most of them with a green card as a visitor from another land overseas and yes they think they're a real Canadian but never contribute never done nothing for the country but just take from the real Canadians that made the country to what it is today and it's all government doing before they give a house or car or anything that they get the immigrants get if you're standing alongside of one peppermint will give it to the immigrant faster than what they'll give to a real Canadian they're more or less told to sleep on the streets and eat out of garbage bins because he's immigrants deserve nothing but the best in our country we have to show them that they are welcomed no they're not welcome anymore Canadian should come first not somebody that came in on a boat or an airplane from another country and overseas it's a government can't look after their own then they shouldn't be in the government because our prime minister is supposed to be protecting the real Canadians not the ones that are coming in over our borders I wonder if that's ever going to change probably not because they still need these foreigners votes just stay in the position where they're at Canada has become a very undeveloped country now in Canada has been put into a lot of danger due to the terrorism that's in our country from the people that they bought in our country from overseas I mean just look at all the protesting from the palestines and Hamas people what they've done so far to Canada we see it on the news just about every day ask for their rights anyways I can keep going on but it's not worth my time tomorrow is never promised it's just that I know Canada is sinking and sinking fast due to our government and their policies but when it sinks do you think the government's going to stand on board and go down with the ship nope I'll be in another country safe and sound

I am supportive of immigration, but I believe there should be a cap of no more than 1-2.5% annually. A significant number of migrants moving to Canada from the same region or country could cause issues, as this can lead to the formation of "mini-bubble" societies within Canada. These groups may sometimes become the dominant demographic and undermine the existing communities that have contributed to building Canada for decades. We cannot expect new immigrants to seamlessly merge into Canadian society. This is a major oversight by Canada’s Immigration Department. Digital applications from foreign nations may play a role in this phenomenon. There should also be regulations concerning how many new immigrants can be brought in by family members. For instance, one new citizen can legally bring both of their parents and their spouse, which is fair. However, there have been cases where this process is repeated multiple times within ten years, leading to a 1:15 ratio, where one person can bring in six to eight relatives. If there is a labor shortage in essential fields, Canada can offer long-term residency to those who continue to work in those sectors, such as caretakers. However, the pathway to citizenship could be lengthened or require a higher standard. For instance, the requirements could extend from X years of living in Canada to X+5 years, as well as passing a basic Canadian citizenship test, either written or verbal. While an increase of five years may seem unfair or lengthy, it is essential. A newborn child from a Canadian family requires 18 years to gain voting rights in elections, whereas new immigrants—especially those who come for study for four to six years—can potentially gain both citizenship and voting rights sooner if they meet the previous administration's standard. Children under the age of 18 can gain citizenship in as little as X-4 years, regardless of their full integration into Canadian society. This loophole is sometimes abused and provides preferential treatment that favors this process over existing Canadian. In my opinion, it would be fairer to calculate the duration of "living in Canada" based on the number of years they have paid "income taxes" in Canada. This is important because many individuals with multiple passports pay taxes elsewhere while benefiting from Canadian healthcare and other services. The investment in home buying as a pathway to citizenship has contributed to the housing crisis, resulting in numerous empty homes in various regions. While it may offer short-term economic benefits that some politicians favor, it is detrimental to Canada as a whole. If buying a house is the only requirement for citizenship, wouldn't a large portion of the global population be eligible for U.S. citizenship just by investing in U.S. businesses or stocks? This perspective may seem illogical when looking at it from outside the box. Apologies for being a bit wordy; I had much more to say. Nonetheless, I also support temporary residency for up to 6-9 months for those who have been evacuated due to war, natural disasters, or similar circumstances. Special exceptions can be granted for families with members working in critical fields that merit such considerations (high-end industry).

Looking from Estonia: At the beginning of the war in Ukraine, many people could read the opinion that the Russians would probably understand and oppose their country's leader and his stupid decisions. This has not happened in Russia for three years, and if you look and listen to the attitude of American leaders and their voters, then such stupid, silent approval is prevailing there too. True, they are attacking their neighbor only with tariffs.. for now.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent coverage of one of the greatest tragedies perpetrated on the American people by its leader. I strongly take issue with the Wall Street Journal opinion of Donald Trump, being a smart man. Only a flaming idiot would let Vladimir Putin play them like a puppet. God bless Canada and it’s unbelievably understanding beautiful people who’s empathy is boundless and God bless Justin Trudeau, who will be unbelievably missed on the world stage and as a beloved, American, cousin, and dear neighbor‼️

He who speaks the loudest has the most to lose. Trump can give a shit less about your opinion. Canada will be under us control. Especially if your dumbass keeps acting tough. Lmfao

Hi frim Montreal trump saying canada is taking advantage of usa. Did he forget about the American hostages we saved in Iran, did he forget how canada stepped in during 911, tajing thousands of Americans who could not land in usa but were rerouted to eastern canada, did he forget how canadians and americans fought side by side during several wars. In my opinion not only dod he forget, but he is an insulting human being not fit to be behind the oval office but instead be behind bars as the CRIMAL that he is. God bless America you are going to need it.

his comments about working positively with Russia and appeasing putin are opinions not facts. The fact is WE ARE BROKE. We you me cant afford to be spending money on Ukraine as much as it pains me to say. We are going to go bankrupt and then we wont be able to help ourselves. We cannot continue to spend BORROWED MONEY. Are you willing to have the value of your hard earned dollar to fight a never ending battle. The truth is not a pretty one. Everytime we borrow money the quality of your life and your families diminishes. Not Ok with that. its a fucking struggle out here. and i know it is for you too. Mr Trudeau I think i just made it make sense. We cant afford it. War must end at all costs. or we are fucked.

Am I the only one thinking that we had a good PM, and media really manipulated popular opinion as to which he had to stand down? i mean look at what is going on down south, when emotions are allowed to rule? Trudeau wasn't doing anything wrong, he just go chopped for nothing... sad

As an American citizen I just want to say thank you our president is so screwed up he's taking our nation down the toilet and none of the Republicans will even help they won't voice their opinions they won't help their own people that is shameful so please do what you have to do we understand we voted for Biden vice president not Trump and no he is not a very smart guy Pam or Elon

Why is it that CNN insists on cutting the audio off while Trudeau is speaking? We would like to hear the questions he is asked and his responses, not the opinions of their staff. They can easily share their opinions afterwards, when we can easily switch channels.

as a seattle resident. canada is a great place but ran completely as a bureaucracy gov. \nthis is the same guy who shut down cities, took peoples money from there account,tore small businesses apart and went after who had a different opinion. there is so much more to the story. \ni would believe any this guys says

What if, The reason whyTrump is so eager to please Putin because Russia played a key role in helping him win the presidency ? manipulating the system and shaping public opinion through a massive online troll campaign and widespread disinformation? If that’s the case, he might feel indebted to Putin, starting with his actions on Ukraine, then moving on to lifting sanctions on Russia, even if it means harming U.S. allies in the process.hmm

Cancel.suspend aNy further transactions. Wash hands get back to American buisness.\n Considering threats fuuck Canada. Incompetent politicians= opinions of a boy

I don't care what side of the fence you sit on. I did not need to hear this man speak to already know Canada was, but may yet be, our greatest ally and trading partner. I have no idea what possessed Mr. Trump to decide to stab our allies in the back, but it was not something good. 27.5% of voting age adults voted for him. How many of them were serenaded by hollow promises and a good slogan. Perhaps all of the mud slinging and Russian media interference helped? If you add in our more studious teenagers, truly reformed felons, and immigrants who actually deserve a gold card, that number plummets to less than 25%. I won't ask people to wake up, if you are reading this you are already more than capable of finding out that I speak only the hard truth. This means less than a quarter of america wanted this. This means your vote and opinions DO count. I know it is incredibly difficult to reach for and find answers in a world where your president or primary candidate throws 'fake news' in your face on a regular basis. He is actually telling the truth. When he is not telling you is that he is a primary enabler of 'fake news'. To him, only his word is law, only his opinion matters, only he deserves to be on top, and he deserves authority over all of your lives. Do the right thing, we all have a civil duty to understand our candidates to the very best of our ability. When a man has been convicted of dozens of felonies, and we tell you that this is only what we were willing to expose. You may want start believing us. The genuine facts of his past are unilaterally corrupting to our children and good people alike. Do not let the american people repeat their mistakes, force Mr. Trump to atone for his mistakes. No not empower him to sweep them under the rug for the sake of his own arrogance, because that is exactly what he is doing by trying to dismantle the CIA and FBI. These two institutions are shining examples of America's pursuit of freedom and justice. Freedom to keep billionaires from corrupting the morals of our children. Freedom to know that the rule of law is immutable, our constitution is not just a paper with fancy traditional sentiment. Even if the law may sometimes be bent for the sake of decency, forgiveness, and the pursuit of 'united we stand', our constitution cannot. Amendments require the FULL support of nearly all Americans, not 27.5% of unrestricted adults.

I see the comment section is completely one sided which is obsurd considering the # of views this video has(over 5.5 million in just 7 hours) and over 70k comments yet not a single comment opposes Canada ? I'll be sure to come back to this video later to verify my comment has been deleted. I'm taking a screenshot of this post after I hit comment as proof an attempt to make an opposing opinion on a cnn video was done, but was quickly removed. Lets see.....

This idiot Wolf Blitzer has done nothing but tank CNN's rating for the past 20 years so ya might want to stear clear of his opinions. I hope he retires in Canada.

I’m glad to hear Trudeau say Canada is worth fighting for. Prior to the recent US election he’s been beating the DEI and down with the evil west drum for the last decade. What specific Canadian/western values in your opinion are worth fighting for Trudeau?

Trump is incredibile at uniting people. Never before have I seen so many people of such opposite beliefs and political opinion unite against one common enemy.

Thank you, Trudeau. Not that I value your opinion but it seems to have made a lot of sad liberals feel a bit better. Reciprocal tariffs… shouldn’t be a controversial subject

I do not believe you can change the publics opinion of zelenskyy that he invaded the Ukraine and started the war with Russia.

Unfortunately, we listen to are government. He should be talking to the state and the president not directly to the American people. Public opinion will no less still be on the side of the American president.

whoever that woman that spoke about the speech is slow asf. we need more opinionated liberals in the mainstream left wing media.

My opinion is trump is owned by someone (Putin)

People actually defending Trudeau? BOTS BOTS BOTS. Thousands of bots to make it seem like these are popular opinions. Hes been known garbage for quite some time.

I’ve strong feeling that this will end with trump scraping the tariffs . Then doing a deal with the Ukrainian government. And carving up their resources between \nFrance,the USA and the uk . We’re all being gaslighted in my humble opinion.

Up to now, I strongly despised Trudeau. He was weak, dumb, inconsistent, insignificant. \nNow, my opinion has changed. \nWhat he says is far from crap. \nT is a criminal, at the service of China, Russia to disrupt the North American economy every which way he can, whilst hiding in the shadow of a sheer head on military conflict that would leave both sides in the midst of nuclear fallout for centuries. \nThe enemy within. \nThe scour of unabashed destruction. \nThe new age of mind slavery in a T.

A opinion is fine but I see many many AI BOTS in the comments so just quit.

Spoiler alert, noone gives a damn where you are from and what your propagandized opinion is no matter what side you are on. All you followers without your own mind is why this world is so messed up. Blame yourselves sheep

I believe Americans must stop this fool. In my opinion he is desperately trying to destroy what took 80 years to make. He is trying to turn friends into enemies, he is trying to change America from democracy into dictatorship.\nThis is very sad. \nI hope Americans will not allow one imbecile and bunch of crazies to change your great country into land of unrest and division.\nYou must stop your president from dismantling your country.\nJust my opinion ?

Can BOTH sides of the aisle please just chill out!?!? We all need to stop. The media keeps people with opposing views and opinions SO SEPARATED! We are all human beings trying to navigate through this stressful and chaotic thing called “life”. It’s okay that others have different opinions. It’s okay. That’s what makes the world go round. Can we all please just be a tiny bit more caring, compassionate, understanding, and empathetical towards one another. Not even a lot, just a little bit. It’s really simple to be kind.

America is the bad guys evil leader and evil military yes men to weak to have an opinion woke fairy soldiers .

Trump no longer needs your vote so he doesn’t care about public opinion.

I don’t think is good ideas to do this your allies country or friend in my own opinion period. That’s sad

Wasn't this guy who arrested and bank rupted the truckers and their families a cpl years back thus cancelling a difference of opinion in his own country.

Donald Trump. Something is terribly wrong with this man. This is the humble opinion of an european.

from New Zealand: respect for Trudeau, and that has not always been my opinion of him in the past

It's just my opinion but I like Russia better than Canada seems like you guys rely heavily on the USA what's up with that

One of the most beautiful opportunities and privileges of being an American is we can have differing opinions. I respect the opinion of others even though I may have a different opinion. I will say, I would rather our Country gain profit from commerce over taxing its citizens into poverty. I hope all of you have a wonderful day!
