I would say if you stop the flow of drugs into our country like Trump asked you to do and tighten up the border. There would be no problem whatsoever at all, but you say you’re an honest person and you want to get along with everyone well, just stop the drugs from coming in in East Terrace won’t be on there. Trump hasn’t seen any easing up on that border over there and things would be back to normal so it’s it’s sad he had to do that but then your retaliating and what does it do it does nothing yes Canada is gonna suffer and we’re gonna suffer here in the United States all because of your stubbornness and hardness I’ve seen over the years how you text the hell out of your own Canadian citizens and that’s why they don’t like you there, but that has nothing to do with it so

✅I don’t think Americans can call Canada friends..!!\n✅they let drug dealers came to USA \n✅plus many Muslim terroris have come in the USA.\nTrue Canada.\n????????

Why did it take the threat of $$$ a month ago for Canada to take action. Now after years of drugs coming across the border Canada wants credit for doing a good job. ???

Trump started this crap!!! We have to stand firm against this Dictator!! Less than 1% of drugs come from Canada - really that was his reason??? He is such a liar and idiot. If people in Canada don't want to be here and want to join the US - I say GO no one is holding you here!!!! Here is the door don't let it hit you on the way out!!!

This channel is 150% b.s,But the fact of the matter is guns and drugs come free flowing into Canada from the U.S daily,and that problem is much worse.Since Trump got into office Americans have been flooding Canada's border,I don't blame them.If they are taking planes to Canada, then crossing,the handouts in the US must be amazing

Umm hold on if they are traveling from Canada into the U.S. Where is U.S. border security on this. They dictate who gets in and who doesn't far as their country. How is that Canada's fault? We seized litterarly 30 million worth of drugs and firearms in first week of better border security measures. Coming from the U.S. Don't hear Trump saying anything about that being a problem?! Too much none sense not enough realistic facts being stated via media on the U.S. side.

I find it ironic, I hardly hear about people sneaking into Canada to live, usually to get drugs for cheap but, people wanna come into America illegally though it’s “such a terrible place”

What about the illegal guns and drugs and illegals coming from the US to Canada? Huh??? Oh right. It's all about you blameless Yankees. ?

Canadian here. If this is true, we need to stop it, and if we could do anything about the drugs and guns coming north into canada, thatd be great. Cheers folks.

Hate to say it but most ? comes from the US to Canada like hand guns and drugs js

It's the other way around Bozo we get all of your drugs and your dealer's coming up in Canada

Dumb AZZ podcast. there are more illegal immigrants coming up to Canada from America with your illegal drugs and guns...

You all forget that more fentanyl comes into Canada from the US then the other way around. Maybe y’all should help crack down on illegals and drugs entering MY country. Also, we wouldn’t have people entering your country from ours IF YOU DIDN’T CREATE SANCTUARY CITIES IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Trump didn't force anything. Canada was already implementing the increased border measures before he was even in office. How about you american'ts do something about all the illegal firearms and drugs coming into Canada that are going to criminals and funding them. You people can shut the f up.

Please more illegals come from US into Canada every year, not to mention your drugs and guns. We all know most are coming from Mexico. Another Trump supporter pushing his bs.

Oh I'm sorry, Did you forget to talk about the number of people crossing INTO Canada along these borders. \nOh and did you forget to mention the number of guns that come INTO Canada from your side. OH and the huge amount of drugs that come INTO Canada from your side.\nSo quit your bitching and get your problem fixed because you are going to find out real fast the mistake of seeing kindness of weakness.

For a really long time drugs and people have been using the same spot, Ever since the days of prohibition, a the federally-recognized government of the Saint Regis Mohawk Reservation at Akwesasne. The territory under our jurisdiction lies south of the border dividing the United States and Canada, you can drive in the Canadain side and come out in the US upstate New York,\nAug 2, 2016 — Organized crime uses the highly porous Mohawk reservation as a conduit for illicit cargo, Oct 28, 2017 — Some Mohawks resent any presence of US or Canadian law enforcement in the reservation , they are letting the people pass no matter what they're bringing and don't want any law enforcement to even step on their grounds, so maybe their making money that way...

Drugs smuggling coming from Canada? What do you mean it’s like less than 1% compared to Mexico.

Hey rump when do u live up stopping drugs and guns coming into canada from USA

By the way, it's interesting that you're all getting your knickers in a twist over irregular migrants, most of whom wind up working and supporting you at some point (or their children do), when (apparently) you seem to believe you have the same problems with fentanyl coming from the true north. I think that drug thing might be more pressing if it's crime and chaos you're worried about...(you get less then 0.2% of your fentanyl from us, by the way and fewer then 2% of migrants to the US come from Canada. On the other hand, an estimated 70% of illegal migrants to Canada come from the US, right up there with the fentanyl, actually. Oh and we keep having to deal with all the illegal guns from you, too.

facts more people cross from USA into Canada. this info is so wrong all the guns an drugs come from the USA up into Canada mexico is the other way. this is a joke keep cooping

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.....

I am a white Canadian have family and friends in the USA and I tried to move to the usa back in the early 2000's because I had a job could not do it because I was not allowed but it seems if you are other then white it is so much easier and everyone said I should go now because Trudeau is a dictator and that I am a law abiding Conservative that wants to leave Canada because our PM is nothing but a POS Liberal that is robbing the hard working real Canadians and cutting us off of having a good job because of DEI. They want blacks and browns to have all the high paying jobs while the rest of us get shafted into working for Min Wage or a little bit above while we get taxed to death. and if you look at all the homeless in Canada it's all white people and nothing but it's like the scumbag Liberals want the whites to live homeless or just scrapping to get by below the poverty line. It's really sad that this Country is going this way and wish Trump would come here and just clean out the liberals and Woke POS and send them to live on some abandon Island allong with the criminal Illegals because I am so sick of the BS. The Illegals are taking right over and they are the ones that are killing the people off with the drugs too.

Nice anti-Canada propaganda! Stop illegal drugs and guns from the U.S. coming into CANADA you uneducated MAGAts

Less than 1% of illegal drugs that enter the USA come from Canada and less than 10% illegal migrants who enter the USA come from Canada. But no we are being punished as if the numbers are par with the USA Southern Border.

They're going to NY for the freebies. They have the money for flights to Canada. Free buses. Free hotels in NYC.. They could be illegal criminals with drugs coming in

Ummm.....I am Canadian and I find it funny that nobody in the US talks about the flow of drugs and GUNS coming FROM the States into Canada??? I really liked your videos until this one. You are part of the problem of people sharing misinformation. The immigration thing yes!!! We need to close our borders and I think EVERY Canadian will agree with that. Please don't join in and make videos encouraging the hate towards Canada. Not cool at all. The States can't blame everyone else for their issues.????????????

Why didn't you mention the 200,000 illegals who came to Canada from the US? Or the thousands of guns that come up, or the tons of drugs that come up from the US?\nBoth countries need to do better. Love your show.

What a crock of crap! The USA has the problem of weak borders, so they need to step up their border patrol. Canada is securing their borders because of the frequent and much more abundant cases of drugs and guns being smuggled into Canada! The stepped up Canadian border enforcement was already well underway months before Trump made his tariff threats. \nThink about it, the 43lbs of fentanyl that was smuggled in from Canada, at the US border, is a drop in the bucket in comparison to the flow of it that comes in through the ports. Also think about when you cross a border, it’s the country you are crossing into that checks you out. Classic case of Trump blaming others for US failure.

In Canada, it’s become obvious there’s a lot of fraud when it comes to Indians coming as int’l students. Not to mention the Kalistanis who are often linked to weapons and drugs, as well as their “protests”, highlighting their fight for à kalistani homeland, where swords and knives are brandished openly.

Trump says EU tariffs will ‘definitely happen’ as Mexico, Canada and China retaliate \nTrump takes softer line on UK, saying ‘I think that one can be worked out’, while Mexico and Canada vow levies and to strengthen ties with each other \n \nPhilip Wen, Léonie Chao-Fong and agencies \nMon 3 Feb 2025 03.57 GMT \nShare \nDonald Trump has threatened to widen the scope of his trade tariffs, repeating his warning that the European Union – and potentially the UK – will face levies, even as he conceded that Americans could bear some of the economic brunt of a nascent global trade war. \n \nIt comes as Trump’s tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, announced on Saturday, sparked retaliation from all three countries. Mexico and Canada have vowed levies of their own while China and Canada are seeking legal challenges. \n \nTrump said on Sunday night that new tariffs on the EU will “definitely happen”, repeating previous complaints about the large US trade deficit with the bloc and his desire for Europe to import more American cars and agricultural products. \n \nEmpty shelves remain with signs ''Buy Canadian Instead'' after the top five US liquor brands were removed from sale at a British Columbia liquor store in Vancouver. \nAsian sharemarkets tumble in response to Trump tariffs \nRead more \n“It will definitely happen with the European Union, I can tell you that,” he told reporters. “I wouldn’t say there’s a timeline but it’s going to be pretty soon.” \n \nTrump appeared to take a softer line on the UK, citing a good relationship with prime minister Keir Starmer while saying tariffs still “might happen”. “The UK is out of line but I’m sure that one, I think that one can be worked out,” he said. \n \n“Well Prime Minister Starmer’s been very nice, we’ve had a couple of meetings, we’ve had numerous phone calls, we’re getting along very well, we’ll see whether or not we can balance out our budget.” \n \nIn Canada, the department of finance published a list of US products imported into Canada that it will target with a 25% retaliatory tariff starting on Tuesday. \n \nThe list shows products that will be hit in the first round of retaliatory tariffs by Canada starting on Tuesday, and mounts to $30bn Canadian dollars’ worth of goods (about US$20bn). The impacted products include tobacco, produce, household appliances, firearms and military gear. \n \nCanada is also preparing for a second, broader round of retaliatory tariffs in 21 days that will target an additional C$125bn (US$86bn) worth of US imports. The second list would include passenger vehicles, trucks, steel and aluminum products, certain fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, dairy products and more. \n \nFILES-US-CANADA-MEXICO-CHINA-TRADE-TARIFFS<br>(FILES) US President Donald Trump speaks to the press after signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC on January 31, 2025.

Sheinbaum, in a statement on Sunday, said she will announce details on her government’s “plan B” as she insisted that Mexico “doesn’t want confrontation”. \n \n“Problems are not addressed by imposing tariffs, but with talks and dialogue,” she said. “Sovereignty is not negotiable: coordination yes, subordination no.” \n \n'Coordination yes, subordination no': Mexican president responds to Trump's tariffs – video \nSheinbaum and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau spoke by phone on Saturday after Trump’s administration imposed the new tariffs – 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, with a lower rate of 10% for Canadian oil, and 10% on imports from China. \n \nTrudeau’s office said in a statement that Canada and Mexico agreed “to enhance the strong bilateral relations” between their countries. Canadian officials have had extensive dialogue with their Mexican counterparts, but a senior Canadian official said he would not go as far as to say the tariff responses were coordinated. \n \n“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau posted Sunday on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.” \n \nTrump acknowledged the sweeping tariffs he has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China may cause “short term” pain for Americans as global markets reflected concerns the levies could undermine growth and reignite inflation. Asian markets, cryptocurrencies and US and European stock futures slumped in early Asian trading on Monday. \n \n“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said. day, Trudeau said: “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.” However on Sunday evening, a senior government official from Canada briefing reporters in Ottowa on condition of anonymity said: “We will obviously pursue the legal recourse that we believe we have through the agreements that we share with the United States.” \n \nThe official said the Canadian government considered the move by Trump illegal and said it violates the trade commitments between the two countries under their free trade agreement and under the World Trade Organization. \n \n“If other legal avenues are available to us, they will be considered as well,” the official said. \n \nCanada is the largest export market for 36 states, and Mexico is the largest trading partner of the US. \n \nCanada and Mexico ordered the tariffs despite Trump’s further threat to increase the duties charged if retaliatory levies are placed on US goods. \n \nChina also said it would file a lawsuit against the tariffs. The imposition of tariffs by the US “seriously violates” World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement, urging the US to “engage in frank dialogue and strengthen cooperation”. \n \nFiling a lawsuit with the WTO would be a largely symbolic move that Beijing has also taken against tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles by the EU. \n \nThe commerce ministry also said the tariffs were “not only unhelpful in solving the US’s own problems, but also undermine normal economic and trade cooperation”. China has said it would take countermeasures to “safeguard its own rights and interests”. It is not clear exactly what form these will take yet. But for weeks Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning has said Beijing believes there is no winner in a trade war. \n \nLate Sunday night, Trump said he would speak with Trudeau on Monday morning and shortly after said he would speak with Mexico as well, although he did not specify that he would speak with Sheinbaum. \n \nBeyond the official response, people were already thinking of ways to cope with Trump’s decision, including by sharing suggestions on social media for alternatives to US products. \n \nCanadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem on Saturday night at two National Hockey League games.

Joseph Chua, who works as an importer, said he expects to feel the tariffs “pretty directly”. “I’ve always stood during both anthems. I’ve taken my hat off to show respect to the American national anthem, but today we’re feeling a little bitter about things,” he said, adding that he will start to avoid buying US products. \n \nIn the streets, people in Mexico were trying to absorb the announcement on Sunday, although some in the capital acknowledged that they were unaware of the measures. \n \nIn the border city of Mexicali, across from Calexico, California, some people were concerned about the wider implications of a trade war. \n \nDriver Alejandro Acosta says that he crosses the border weekly in his truck to deliver vegetables to US companies. He said he fears US businesses in the Mexicali Valley will no longer want to operate in Mexico and they will move to the US. \n \n“If they raise taxes on the factories here, jobs may also decrease,” he said.

There is something Canada and Mexico don't get, Trump put tariffs because of the illegal trade that comes across the borders, illegal immigrants, gangs and drugs and because he thinks, right or wrong, that Mexico and Canada don't do enough to stop it. Now Mexico and Canada put tariffs on the US, because the US puts tariffs on them, they don't even try to defend their position or debunk what trump is saying about the illegal goods coming in. Trump must be right then, no?

It has nothing to do with illegal immigration or drugs into the US. The Canadian border is only responsible for 1% of illegal immigration into the US. As for fentanyl, the problem is not coming from Canada.

Trudeau has resigned, and soon he is leaving. So what will be his last gift?\nHe is leaving the coming government in an economic fight of retaliation. \ninstead of leaving them on a negotiation table on how to resolve the illegal immigrants problem and fight against fentanyl drugs. \nI would prefer to find solutions on these two issues because there won't be any tarrif or money involved. but if they are starting a fight with Trump. It might involve a lot of things.\nJust look at how he frozen the federal government funds, so pick up a retaliation fight and see where it will end. \nLearn from the Colombian President. What do you have to lose? \nI FORESEE CANADA AND MEXICO ECONOMIES COLLAPSING. YOU WILL TELL ME I WAS RIGHT. DON'T FIGHT TRUMP WITH STUPIDITY OF RETALIATION.

If only 1% of drugs entering the U.S. come from Canada as Trudeau says, it’s no surprise that Canada is experiencing over 25,000 overdose deaths a year, with only a 40 million population.

I don't think the average viewer knows why the US is doing this. They're trying to combat illegal immigration and fentanyl as well as Mexican compliance with the drug cartels.\n\nThe reason tariffs are being used is because America is in a very powerful position when it comes to trade. The american economy doesn't rely on trade like Canada (67%), Mexico (73%) and China (37%). American trade accounts for only 24% of its massive GDP. if you removed all trade from america, it would still have larger economical output than china, mexico and canada COMBINED. yes. Combined. \n\nFurthermore, Canadian trade with america account for almost 80% of all trade in canada. A 25% increase would be absolutely devastating to canada. In america its about 13% so a 25% increase would cost more but it wont have any significant impact.\n\nNo doubt this tarrif war will cause far more problems for canada mexico and china than america. By a LOT. \n\nI dont think america is being selfish either. China does nothing to protect america from sending precursor chemicals to america to manufacture fentanyl. Canada facilitates illegal immigration and fentanyl into america with no accountability. And mexico is illegal immigrants by the MILLIONS and is literally working with the drug cartels. If they sort out those issues the trade war ends. \n\nI think america has every right to go to war to protect its sovereignty and its people.

A lot of us Americans remember learning about the tariff wars in history class that ended up in deciding fair trade was the better route. I fear we’re about to learn the same lesson again…\n\nAs far as the drug trade goes apparently the GOV doesn’t spend enough time on the internet because the cartels are no longer just in Mexico they’re in the USA and in Canada. They have learned the Canadian border is a lot easier to cross and they can get into BC pretty easily due to relaxed immigration policies In Canada.. they probably don’t actually know where the drugs are coming from or where they’re being manufactured entirely. The cartels are probably a step ahead of them at the moment. \n\nI can’t believe the auto industry lobbyists were not instructed to go full send on the detriment of the opposite position taken from the NAFTA. The only thing I can see is auto sales are slumping and maybe they can blame this on the tariff policy for massive restructuring. \n\nI kind of understand wanting to negotiate with Mexico because they probably buy less American goods than Americans buy Mexican goods (drugs excluding) but I’m guessing Canada is a better customer of American goods than Americans are of Canadian goods. Why would you want to upset a good partner, customer, and ally!? It’s Beyond my comprehension…. If Trump was really smart he’d convince some factories to actually invest in Mexico with cooperation from the Mexican government investing in efficient transportation from the manufacturing sectors to the American border and the coasts for distribution. This would likely really help their economy and change the whole dynamic of all the things Trump has issues with. Fix it at the source not try to treat the symptoms.

I don’t care. Let Canada come around. Let Mexico go. I don’t have any need for crp made in China or Mex and they can keep their bullsht drugs and cartels.

I think Trump should focus on Canada's 1 per cent of fentanyl . The Mexican 99 percent contributes the ingredients that some Canadians process and export , Ignore that the drug and GUNS come north.

Trump's rationale of the border security issue to Canada is totally false as less than 1 percent of drugs and illegals come through Canada. Trump is just being a bully to try to get his way on tariffs for what he thinks is an economic decision to improve the USA. Unfortunately he is again wrong as Americans and Canadians will pay a lot more for goods and Trump will cause more inflation, ruin companies and many job losses across both nations.

Trump’s tariffs (/geo-economic warfare)—and his desire to annex Canada and Greenland and seize back control of the Panama Canal—has got little to do with immigration or drugs coming into the US (whatever happened to Build the Wall?) especially in the case of Canada. It’s about debt and power, the former growing, the latter fading. Trump himself has said tariffs are a means to make America wealthy and to abolish income tax. It’s got to do with America living outside its means with massive deficits and ballooning debt, and rather than take responsibility for that, the US thinks others should pay (when US consumers will) for it to continue to live outside its means, while it cuts taxes largely to the benefit of the wealthy... \nRemember when Iraq invaded Kuwait, how it said it was because Kuwait (and the United Arab Emirates) caused a drop in oil prices with the overproduction of crude oil, thus impacting Iraq’s ability to pay its debts and recover from the Iran-Iraq war, but really it was about seizing Kuwait’s large oil reserves, canceling the debt it owed Kuwait, and expanding its power in the region… Sound similar?

Thing is the oh so bright Kamala went there and told them they could come and our constitution and laws didn't apply to them. It was all set up to destroy America and then if you remember Joe signed something with Mexico and Canada giving up sovernty-to our border. Venezuela president a bad boy. He let his prison open for them to come here and Mexico agreed to let them all come through. Drug and human trafficking. I hate it for these ppl but the USA is broke. We borrow money every year to send money and aide to other country's. Why? They all have rich lands .they sell it out to China then the citizens suffer just like here in the USA. Gov. Needs to be giving us a check each year for what they sell out of the earth here. Only the Gov.officals get kickbacks. It's theft in all sense.

Columbia didn't back down, they had no problems with the way president Biden were sending their citizens back. Colombian Air Force plane took them back. Trump with his mask distruction of theatrics. Now CNN is is kissing Trump ring. No wonder Jim Acosta resigned, he stood firm in his principles a man with integrity.\nFentanyl comes from China not Canada, USA drugs and gun problems spilled into Canada.

More illegal guns, drugs and immigrants come to Canada from the USA. Do Americans not know how to fact check?

I'm all for helping Mexico and Canada so citizens don't need to come to the USA over time but both countries must know that they have to do their diligence to make sure people that are not legally in their countries use that country as a pass through to the USA. I'm all for the USA, Canada and Mexico work together to stop the illegal drug cartels and gangs.

I never see Indians or asian people begging for money , they are not homeless or self induced drug addicts , most of the immigrants pull their own weight , quit whining about how they dont belong here ,they didnt come here and kill the natives pillage and plunder the resourses, we learned absolutely nothing ( Europeans) coming from Europe , kill the natives and steal the land , oh so charming ,your proud of that ? On a positive note we in Canada didnt enslave the black people,we do welcome people who have no where to live had there homes bombed blown up family and friends killed . You get the point . I lot of immigrants open up there own buisnesses maybe some are jealous of their prosperity?

They are illegal and should NOT be accepted as Canada and USA have already their own problem of homeless, drugs , jobless and hungers !!! They should all back to their country of origin !!! NO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS !!!! THEY BREAK THE LAWS BY COMING WITHOUT PROPER DOCUMENTS !!!! ???

Its sour grapes, Indians have been going to Canada for 100 years, granted some cities are expensive, but hard work has never hurt, most of what is being shown applies in the USA as well. \nMost Indians do not live on the streets where drug addicts live, the video simply gives a impression that Canada is bad, well just dont come, stay in India and stop complaining, all Indians want the might Power Passports, and Canada has that, so nothing is going to stop the smart Desi.

The Canada/USA border is a bigger risk to Canada. More drugs come into Canada from USA than the other way around. And almost ALL our crime guns come from USA. Our border has been an issue for Canadians for many many years. It’s stupid that they are flipping it, the other way around, but whatever it takes to get it fixed!
