American here. Family moved to Canada ?? after American Revolutionary War (yep family was a royalist). Stayed in Oh Canada for over 100 years. As an American ?? (country I love) - I stand with Canada ?? even though it will cost me & other lower / middle classes $$$$. Not Canada’s fault. It is the fault of the orange ? man who is a pretender POTUS. A man who kisses Putin’s ring. A man who protects billionaires & trillionaires… not the majority of U.S. Americans. He doesn’t care about the grossly misguided people who voted for him - they are finding out now! Stay Strong Canada ??! Thank you for standing up to this American Bully! So many of us are ashamed, disgusted, and so sorry! ❤??❤??

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau! Many of us Americans agree with everything you said

Yes, the number two in the Oval Office is Pence, and his words often come across as cheap, bullying tactics. Instead of offering real leadership or thoughtful discussion, he uses language that tries to intimidate and put others down. His approach often feels like he's trying to hold onto power by scaring people, rather than standing on solid ground with strong ideas. This kind of talk may work for some, but it only creates more division and gets in the way of real progress.\nThe biggest mistake was introducing tariffs without any backup plans in place. The bottom 60% of U.S. citizens will likely struggle to make ends meet in less than two years, stuck behind the barriers of these tariffs. The idea that South American countries might step in to help the U.S. seems unrealistic. More likely, the U.S. will find itself isolated, facing political instability—and to put it bluntly, a loss of trust—thanks to an overinflated ego and a sense of entitlement.\nCould the U.S. turn to African countries for their natural resources? It’s possible, but this effort probably won’t be successful. Most African nations, except for those in the Sahel region, are just beginning to recover from the effects of colonialism. Many are now building their own paths and are more likely to align with China’s influence rather than the U.S. Even if the U.S. tries to get resources from Africa, it will likely face challenges from both local resistance and growing competition from China.

We will survive because we are united as one. We have great leaders leading this war. We will survive. Many Canadians are doing their part by not buying American goods anymore. God protect our brave nation. Thank you, Prime Minister and Premier Ford.

Thank you Trudeau for saying what many many Americans want to say!

Justin Trudeau, you did this to Canada. It’s so disrespectful calling the sitting President Donald. Why don’t you go raise carbon taxes, send our money to Ukraine and bring in another 10,000 Sudan’s when your people are sleeping on the street. This speech is a joke, look at yourself in the mirror and say all this to yourself. Also, stop lying that only a small percentage of fentanyl go into the states from Canada! You’re lying and need to stop holding our country hostage so the conservatives can clean up YOUR mess just like they’re doing in the US! Thanks to you many Canadians are excited and wish to become the 51st state because you’ve made Canada such a threat to the US National Security. You brought in millions of unvetted immigrants, terrorists and allowed so much crime. CNN shame on you. You’ve fed these poor people so many lies they have no idea of the corruption going on. Thank God Justin is gone. Bye Bye Governor Trudeau.

It is evident that comments like the one from @robertedward7023 demonstrate many, many people do not know what took place at the meeting before this meeting which should have made this meeting a simple signing of the agreement. VP Vance corrected Zelensky for his attempt to propagate his agenda and now that Germany, France and others--as NATO countries--have jumped in, there could be consequences resulting in war if they continue to push for it. As far as Trudeau, he is on his way out according to his own resignation and he has just done Canada wrong with the faulty reasoning. I thank all military veterans for their service, but I do not approve of what they say blindly.

♥♥♥♥Canadian over here. Many thanks to all of you good people around the world who are supporting us.

Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister. You made many mistakes during your mandates but now, you defend your country as a real Statesman.\nThank you.

Thank You President Trudeau! Many millions of Americans support you and Canada. Our Fat Orange President and JT Vance are in Putin's Pocket. Wake Up America!

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, many of us Americans hate this too! I appreciate you distinguishing your relationship with the American people (those of us who are not for this), from the cruel leadership in the US who are imposing these harmful policies. I admire your leadership. You are a true, dignified, level headed leader. I wish we had that here in the US. I'm so sorry for what my government is doing to Canada?

Trump stopped targeting Russian hackers. The US ordered cyber command to longer monitor Russisn hackers or to go after them. \n\nTrump ends the consumer watching agency that protected the US citizens from fraud and cyber fraud and the watching general who was tasked to monitor fake money scams like some bit coins which many are dark web money payments from crooks and money laundering. I wonder who this move helped? All of the inspector generals who were looking ok not the scam artist and corporate welfare wuuen Elon Musk. \n\nI was just hearing that gas prices are going up a dollar at least tomorrow, so you had better go and fill up. it's about all any of us can do at this juncture, is my guess. The tariffs are a tax on all of us, plus the oil we used to get from Canada is now going to China or Europe. I'd tend to say you all should be thanking a Republican. Prices up in groceries? thank a Republican. Inflation going up? thank a Republican. thousands of jobs lost. Thank a republican. higher gas prices? Thank a Republican. Don’t forget, thank a Republican, the switchboard number to the House of Representatives is 202-224-3121 be sure and call and let them know what you think. thank your representatives. Firing Veterans thank a Republican. Firing the people who care for the Veterans, thank Republicans. The cascading job losses can be attributed to Trump and his tariffs and the tariff wars. Maybe it will be a depression he will cause worldwide? Thank a republican.\nRuined our government and ruined our status in the world. Thank a Republican.

I know...I've been to Niagara Falls and Toronto....best visiting place ever. Beautiful Country and my hope is to one day have an opportunity to visit and take the train across. Thank you for your help with the California Fires....you are having to deal with a deranged, self-loving monster who IS NOT QUALIFIED to have the job he is playing with. You must defend yourselves of all his whims and orders. This dictator want-to-be, whom many of us don't want here, is a bully! Don't allow that to happen...ever. Push back...don't let the bully orange tumor get his way without repercussions. We as citizens know there will be a high price to pay, but we are not blinded to his tyranny.

Canada has helped the U.S. many times. What about the Haiti crisis in the U.S? Don’t you all remember, Biden asked Trudeau to step in and we did. Now there is no crisis. Do you ever hear the U.S thank Canada? How about the many many times we went in to help with natural disasters? You never hear that. \n\nThe RUMP says that the U.S subsidizes Canada and gave a huge amount of money. That is an outright lie.

Many US citizens want to work with Canada! Eff Trump! Do what y'all need to do and we'll be working on getting that tyrant and his cronies out of office. I hope when this is all over we can be friends again and may it never happen again. Sometimes you need to slap sense into your friends and that is exactly what Canada is doing so thank you Canada.

As Americans we don’t want to be in a trade war with our amazing neighbors. Unfortunately many Americans voted in as president a psychopathic narcissistic woman hating racist zealot who has multiple bankruptcies and broken marriages as his claims to fame. Thank you Canada for standing for your citizens!!!

I have had many Canadian friend including my first serious girlfriend. I worked with exchange Candian military folks and saw them as full partners. On D-Day Candian troops had their own beach which the successfully captured. They were by our side in Korea and all of our other wars. DJT's excuses for the tariff are fabricated lies exactly as it made up lies that President Zelensky did not show thanks and appreciation. Why is DJT's admin lying? Is it simply incompetence or something worse?

As an American I am absolute ashamed and disgusted at what is happening to our standing in the world thanks to DJT. And I’m so sorry at the way this is affecting our allied countries and their citizens, our friends. I’m so sorry you have to fight this fight because so many of us failed to stop the fascist oligarchy takeover at home

As a Canadian, I am thankful for the supportive comments by many Americans in this forum. Yet, from polls observed this AM, 45% of Americans still support Trump in his mandates... WHY??

As an American I am absolute ashamed and disgusted at what is happening to our standing in the world thanks to DJT. And I’m so sorry at the way this is affecting our allied countries and their citizens, our friends. I’m so sorry you have to fight this fight because so many of us failed to stop the fascist oligarchy takeover at home

Say thank you to russian lovers. That happens when you keep monster alive..... Russia was saved many times by western, now you see

Canadian here too. Thank most of you americans for this outpouring of support, and seems many from both sides of the aisle. \n\nFor my part? I do believe you have a russian asset as president now. Even the freaking Russians just came out and said US policy is now aligning with Russias own. Hes abandoning an ally in Ukraine unless Ukraine gives an unconditional surrender to a guy who says he is not interested in any deals, and broke his OWN TRADE AGREEMENT stopping just short of actual war with Canada and Mexico. Our own PM as you hear, says Trumps goal is to destroy our economy and annex this country. \n\nYou have a russian asset in the seat folks. \n\nDo something about it.

Excellent for Canada! Many Americans do not support the orange felon at all. He is a russian asset and has been since the early 80's. He is a liar and a con man. Thanks to PM Trudeau for standing strong against the horrible actions of our so called President. We are ashamed and so sorry.

Wow, this guy is very intelligent, he puts some clips he loaded from news or the Internet and unloaded them here to bait the people. They are coming by the thousands but the video shows only a few people. First thing is, people crossing into the USA, it's not upto canada to stop them. If somone enters canada from the USA then its upto canada to stop them from entering, not the USA. If sombody crosses into USA then it's upto USA to block them..\n\nMost of the content in this video is false. People are always trying to cross into other countries illegally, but it's upto the other countries border security to stop them and send them back..\n\nWhat a lie about the bus waiting for these people at the crossing points. LoL...sure sure..\n\nIce is nothing but a reality show, very little reality but it's entertaining to watch because people think it's real. Lol...\n\nTrump used cheap labor to built his Empire. do you guys think he hired Americans to built his luxury hotels, casinos, towers etc? Heck no, he used these very same migrants he claims to be taking your jobs away from you. Guy soreads lies and speaks from both sides of his mouth. Think about it. If you have a business, are you going to hire expansive labor or cheap labour? If you wanna make BIG profits then you knkw who you'd be hiring. Face it. Migrants will do jobs that no one wants and they'll do it for a lot less. \n\nI got a roof put on my House for less then half of what i was quoted. Thanks to the hard working migrants. Take it to the bank, ICE is not created to deport big numbers of migrants back, its created to make it look that way. How would you know how many people they deported, oh yeah, becasue the orange men is going to brag about it and you'll fall for it. Much like this video.

Thank You Trump We the People Need a President that Cares about America First No Borders No Country Period how many Terrorist and Criminals are Crossing into America Close the Borders Now Trump you the Man

100.000 have entered the uk over last 10yrs given free accommodation and health benefits while the indigenous pensioners who paid tax while working are now freezing thanks to this government giving aid to god knows how many countries. Crime rate tripled,but they still allow all into the country without any vetting.they actually ditch passports into the English Channel . We need Trump

Sanctuary cities are what the are to help less fortunate people seeking refuge!!! That is the law and thanks God for that for calme the suffering of so many families in the world ? !!!

THIS ??ian would like to let Trump know how appreciative and thankful we are for him forcing our fuhrer to lock down the border better. BUT, don't be fooled. The leading 'party' use a heavier hand than ANY mob and make tones of $$ with it wide open! The plan to destroy us from the inside out is still going on here - FULL TILT! I am so thankful it's come to a STOP for our Amerifriends. I believe electing that common sense man into office didn't just save you, but has saved MANY countries. Possibly the ? ! Now, if he could ONLY figure out how to hit J.T WITHOUT hurting us Canuks! There ARE ways! Many ways TRUST! \n<--Go MAPLE ? MAGA! \nLET'S MAKE ?? CANADIAN AGAIN! ❤

? 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

Wow! Democrats have been allowing this to happen for so many years. Thank you, Donald Trump.

Stop blaming other countries… we need to find our own mistakes… then we have at least little hope to change our mindset….we have habit of blaming others for our own mistakes..if you are not fitting in the rule- regulations of visa process of- course it will get rejected… most people have fake paper work for visas. \n\nSimple example… if someone enter illegally in our country we will call them terrorist … some countries put them in jail according to illegal act… I appreciate that they are sending them back to their own country… actually we should thank them for saving these people future.\n\nMaharashtra took a step earlier when they send UP citizens out of Maharashtra… in their own country they cannot go to other state.. how you think other countries should let them enter illegally n not take any action… I think we should think before saying anything.\n\nIllegally enter people don’t pay tax… indirectly they put so much pressure on health n other systems…we the tax payer bear that cost.. is that fare ? \n\nThey don’t follow rules of country… they behave similar how they behave in India … they don’t follow health- hygiene , equality rules.\n\nOur country more diverse but no equality… still people get priority based on reach- poor or on caste basis.\n\nIn other country any Indian do something exceptional then we say they are Indian… but no one think that they got that opportunity to prove themself because they were in other country… in our country people doesn’t get opportunity based on their calibre… \n\nWe have habit that we go abroad… earn money… get ideas of business n going back to India we say that’s our own idea… no appreciation at all… so many new businesses has got ideas from other developed countries but no courtesy to appreciate others or thank them.\n\nEven our news channels… everything is happening first time in the world… even it happens so many year earlier in other countries….some people they really don’t know n they believe that…. It’s just playing with people emotions… not providing real information… we all are human beings… we need to appreciate each other… \n\nThese countries have some rules n regulations for human beings to develop equality n equal opportunities. Most of the NRI appreciate that as we haven’t got that in our own country.

Too many dam* indians! Thanks to JT and NDP!!!!

Thanks to the democrates who allowed so many illegal migrants in this country. They are shakled because they refused to voluntarely leave and to avoid riots while traveling! Not the best way but when you deal with such sensitive situation, it is better to keep the situation under control. The US needs to keep the border closed yet allow more migrants to come legally.

I'm a Canadian Syrian, and I have nothing against Indians—in fact, they've helped me a lot in many ways. I just want to share a friendly piece of advice, and I don’t mean to sound racist or anything. It's just something to be aware of.\n\nIn downtown, it's common to see large gatherings where people are dancing, playing loud music, and sometimes drifting cars. There's also a tendency for loud phone conversations on public transport, which can be seen as disruptive since people here are generally more sensitive to noise in public spaces.\n\nThat being said, I have no hate at all—one of my best friends is Indian, and I really appreciate how they always support me without expecting anything in return. Just wanted to share this as an observation. Thanks!

Its about time, too many of them here illegally.. Thanks trump!!

These Indians probably said thank you while getting arrested ? . They 100% would have supported trump but like many they now realise the At least I'm not black card is invalid and worthless lol ? .

Very conservative video, coming right in time for the election. Immigrants are always an easy target, as this video shows well. At this point - Feb 2025- a lot of condos have been built in Toronto and guess what, nobody is buying!! The economy dipped with the pandemic as it happened in many other countries! When I immigrated to Canada - and I had nothing then, it was impossible to even think of buying a house, under a Conservative government. About 10 years later I was able to purchase my first home and am doing well, thank you. So are the builders in this beautiful province, close friends with the premier. I wonder if this video is independently produced - I doubt it! There are plenty of people happily living in Canada!

Why don’t the government look and see how many days a week how many years we work and so you know what let’s give this family since they’re not making as much as a rich family and let’s go to this upper class Rich family at work hard let’s give them a break where they need it see People can’t spend money or throw money at certain things and expect people to get by but if you wanna come somewhere, why do they do it like this because they see the blacks act crazy in America that’s why they thought they could come to America and do the same thing. It’s common damn sense manjust like a white collar criminal he’ll look in the face and tell you that there’s nothing he can do and there’s a lot he could’ve done and did and do.? but the problem is we need to stick together as people and not let our jobs dictate who we are and make us think we’re better than the average person that only makes $30,000 a year and can’t buy their children the nicest things that they would like because the most important thing to them is having a roof over their head and paying the bills and that’s what upsets me with people in this world they got all this help to fight drugs they got all in the world to fight this, but what about the little guy? What about the little woman the little family guy look out for them?? can’t just say oh here’s church food that shit ain’t good enough. I’m very thankful to the churches that help people with some of them food banks even a church knows it doesn’t help it gets them bye and if you think getting by is healthy when you can’t work a good day because your stomach‘s so low because your children are more important to eat than you? this is why America can’t take care of their own because they’re too busy taking care of the fake

Thank you for your service. Many people commenting have not served or couldn't qualify anyways. She's done more badass things than most people and a lot o the hate is jealously while people playing video games or listen to Joe Rogan

Thank Liberal policies for your decision. The religious part is where you must have forgotten you in the western part of the world not a Islamic nation. Biggest problem with Islam, many people ruined it's reputation and people have hatred towards Islam.

many of those deported dont have a good future and due to being suddenly evicted suicide cases will rise everywhere. we have never visited the us its known for lack of healthcare, unaffordable for most. alos there is a disastrous prison and so called justice system as well as police misconduct towards many invilved and 1300inn nocents shot per year. thanks but no thanks. being yanked out of family and employment is and will be disastrous for many.

Many many thanks to His Excellency Mr Donald J Trump, The President of America for deportation of illegal immigrants from America to save our beloved true Americans.

When this person is addressing this is issue it seems to be normal. Can women serve in the military? Yes! The deal is transgenderism. Who voiced this stupidity of gender transition in children? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. Who advocates for children using puberty blockers? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. Who is advocating for bathroom use? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. Who is advocating for drag queens reading for your children and elementary school, some books that are like a molestation towards a child? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. What he can or cannot do in an airplane is not my concern at this time. My concern is many of the problems we have today is not coming from those who conform but from those who wants to flip things over. Thanks for your services but take a leave and please don’t come back “commander”.

Thank you for your dedicated service over 20 years and we hope many years to come. ??????

32% of the U.S. military are minorities. 17% are female. Transgender, .7%. (2022 numbers. Best I could find.) Math says that is half of our forces. Including Puerto Ricans & Indigenous. None of Trump’s family line have ever served this country. Thank whatever you hold dear that so many who still don’t get adequate representation or respect still believe in the idea of this nation to put their lives on the line to protect it. Thank you to EVERY service member for your service. You are all truly the best.

Thank you biden...if you see this here...imagine how many entered allllover the borders!!! This is a hot mess here....im an legal immigrant i. Earned my entry here my marine husband his worked hard to save up for all immigration papers done before i started working...wow i feel sorry for them and the kids!!!

Protest in your country for change. Fight your oppressors. Asylum isn’t country hopping, it’s to be requested in first safe nation closest to you. You guys passed through many asylum options. Thank you don’t come again

there is no telling how many illegals are in america thanks to harris and biden ,,

I keep hearing the word Venezuela from the crowd These are not a bunch of poor Mexicans trying for a better life. Many are violent criminals released from Venezuelan prisons. Thank God for President Trump and Tom Homan.

What makes Trump the most transactional scumbag of all the presidents of the USA in history, is his pettiness. It is clear that Orange Jesus trwats entire nations the same as contestants in a dystopian version of The Apprentice. One of the many ironies is that his use of tariffs dooms Americans to paying ever increasing costs for everything they need or want. Just think of bananas which are one of the least costly fruits that poorer families may be able to afford and can be consumed by infants to the elderly with some kind of nutritional value. Thanks to the Gutless Orange Fool, even bananas are more expensive. But don't worry, the top 10% of Americans have 60% of all wealth so, they can have all the bananas they desire!
