Hey Trump,Melania is watching. Love the part where he started speaking French ❤

That's he's not speaking french

And that is how a leader speaks. He even went into a fluent French version - something Trump is too stupid to ever be able accomplish.\n\nTrump and his administration are idiots.

Here's an idea, CNN: when Trudeau switches to French, you get a French translator! I wanted to hear what he said in French too! And you have to know by now that whenever the Canadian prime minister speaks, there will be a mix of French and English. Always. Be prepared!

How nice. CNN thinks no one speaks French.

Typical argonat American speaking when french or spanish german or swedish being spoken.

Lol, he speaks more slowly when addressing the American people and even more so when addressing Donald in comparison to when addressing Canadians, be it in English or French.

“Alright, now that he’s speaking French and none of us speak a second language, let’s start talking on top of him.” Wtf.

Like Trudeau, perhaps Trump will impress the world (after all he is a genius you know) by speaking in French and Spanish BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH.

CNN, why do you feel the need to talk over the Prime Minister when he speaks French? That is really uncalled for. You should provide subtitles at that moment for the people who don't understand French.

9:39 It's not necessary to cut off Prime Minister Trudeau when he speaks French !!! \n?

I wanted to hear him speak french.I took French in high-school 50 years ago.

As a Trans Non binary French speaking immigrant I stand with Ukraine and Canada and can’t believe hitler trump is putting tariffs on my non binary needles I need for my Fetynol addicted child…

As a Canadian who lives in (largely French-speaking) Quebec, I don't know if our gov't even NEEDS to tariff American consumer goods, the people here are already boycotting US goods and companies en masse. EVERYBODY is doing it - and the pace isn't going to recede anytime soon. Even after the Orange Turd is long gone, trust me, Canadians will remember this! The American state has proven it cannot be trusted. They have unilaterally broken the trade agreement (negotiated by the previous Donald J Chump administration) on the flimsiest of reasons, the 00.2 % of fentanyl that flows over the border into the US from Canada. That deal now obviously not worth the paper it was signed on.

7:50. I have to disagree w M Trudeau and the WSJ. Trump is not smart and this a dumb idea. Trump is dumb and this is a stupid idea. And I find it hilarious the as soon as Trudeau starts speaking French, CNN cuts away.

It’s bitter to hear “while he’s speaking French..” before being cut off. Too often the francophone community is belittled in the ?? \nBut I can understand the priority for the panel to speak and for your viewers to stay hooked without subtitles

Perhaps if you are going to broadcast our Prime Minister's speech, one that Canadians need to and want to hear, you might have the courtesy and respect to LET HIM SPEAK rather than bring in colleagues to talk. YOU may not speak or understand French, but we are a BILINGUAL country, so some of us DO. CNN is obviously not where I'm going to get news. Shame.

Trudeau speaking french was cool the only French trump know is Manaj a troix.

Who cares about Canada it’s 70 Asians muslim and Arabs. There for the free handouts. No one speaks French or cares. Loser nation.

I understand why their talking heads are talking over Trudeau when he is speaking in French. But why at 15:15 do I have to listen to the talking heads, rather than hearing from Trudeau himself?Their opinions are not the news...his are.

Wow and he speaks French! ?

I can’t take any country that speaks French seriously

This is why CNN should fail. Instead of finding someone who speaks French to interpret what Trudeau is saying they have morons telling us this isn't good. So boring. So worthless.

Why did you cut away when the PM was speaking French? Can't you just interpret? He is still speaking to everyone.

How rude to interrupt while justin speaking french!

The fact they cut away because he's speaking French is very ugly American.

I hope Canada's retaliatory tariffs target products from Trump states. Also, listening to Trudeau reminds me how much I miss having an intelligent, articulate POTUS. Four years of The Orange Retard, then four years of Geriatric Genocide Joe, and now four more years of The Orange Retard. Why is it too much to ask that We Americans have an articulate, educated leader who's undiminished by senescence (bonus points for speaking French!)

When he starts speaking in French he instantly becomes hotter.

Justin is hot. Especially when he speaks French. Nice to see on TV - that's what you want. Why do we have an ugly old man leading the USA that looks absolutely looks like a garbage dump?

Why Canadians speak french n English?

My Grandapas, both from different countries, both faught in wars and both said 1 thing. If you ever wanted to find a frenchman during war you just had to shake a tree and theyd all fall down from hiding. Learning to speak french to get by in Quebec is b.s because what they speak is not even french. Video is full of fake info but yes new Canadians Quebec is the right place to live.

Most of the public coming from Punjab and not suited for a life in Canada. Most of them are unskilled and can’t get acclimated within Canadian society. Their level of education is also very sub par and they have zero English and French speaking skills. They should leave this country. ?

As an Indian Immigrant who left recently, here are few tips for Canadians:\n\n1. Not every brown person is Indian, I knew people from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka identifying themselves as Indians.\n\n2. Its not entire India but two major states, Punjab and Gujarat, with majority of aggressive actions coming from IMMIGRANTS from Punjab and not native Punjabis who are born and brought up here.\n\n3. Immigrants can’t vote, so majorly its not your fault and so is not immigrants fault but the Government that the CITIZENS elected brought immigrants for boosting their dead economy.\n\n4. Controversial but I will say it, Canada is a FRENCH country with English as its second major language. No others language is as prominent, So if you are sure that a brown person is an IMMIGRANT and they can’t even speak ENGLISH properly let alone French, 99% chance he/she is a problem in your country and does labour work.

He still speaks no English or french after leaving in the US.

It's difficult for Indians to learn French. It's interesting to hear an Indian speaking French with an Indian accent.

Important rule if you want to live in the province of Québec, learn to speak a minimum of french language. The majority of people speak french outside of Montréal

En mass’ Punjabi influx is the major reason.. Vast number of them can’t speak English and don’t ‘ve basic qualifications to pursue higher education.. So they opt for 18-month diploma to seek “quick employment”.. All these actions were successful “until Corona”.., Post-Corona economy has changed .. so has outlook native Canadians .. Majority of Canadians view “Brampton culture” as representative of culture of India .. (Brampton Culture- Not demonstrating character / discipline, not using deodorant/ unclean attire / engaging in public brawl etc.. )\n\nAdding further woes ~ not enough apt / housing available for Canadians ~ while students are pushed to tie ‘em selves in a group of 6+ in tiny 2-bedroom apt’s.. Quebec’s imposition of “French B-2 permit in language proficiency” has dented chances of Int’l students opting to study in Montreal ..\n\nIn short : “Welcome to Canada” has been severely misused by Indian students / and lousy refugee policy of Canada has further undermined legitimacy of Int’l students ..

Oh, Dear Miss Alina, Be sure - that as far You go(travel) if You \nfind people who can speak Canadian ?( English & French) \nthey shall never leave Ya without a help as far as they have potential and possibilities. \nÇa c'est sure, tu doit avoir une peu de fois ! ?????\nAvec Beaucoup de Respects ;-)

As a Canadian ex-pat, I CAUTION viewers! This is a highly biased, propaganda film. Minority rights are all but ignored by municipal, provincial and federal governments. Its healthcare system is broke, and racism abounds in Quebec against non-French speaking people and just about every dark skinned person in the rest of the country.

As someone who lived in multiple provinces (now Quebec), Quebec is truly awesome, yes, but it is extremely subjective to think that it is better than BC, Alberta or the maritimes. Also, if you don't speak at least a little french, it's true that you won't have such a great experience (at least outside of Montreal)

If you don’t speak french, don’t come to Quebec

The indian should speak french or leave its Quebec

It's cool in Canada, speaks English and French

Thank you for summarizing these key changes! Many problems are actually the Canadian immigration system not learning from the mistakes of the US system and now it’s suffering the same consequences. If Canada cuts down on those selected immigrations but still takes in refugees, it’s only going to make anti-immigrant sentiment worse. Selected immigrants are allowed into Canada to help alleviate Canadian issues…or at least people who come through Express Entry are less likely to become a burden. On the other hand, refugees, given their unfortunate circumstances, really need to rely on a lot of social services and resources to help them resettle. The US has eliminated pretty much all non-humanitarian immigration that’s why immigrants are so demonized there. Americans only feel the drags of refugees and asylum seekers (even though ethically we need to protect them) and there is no selected immigration to balance that out. Yet this round of Canadian policy change is heading exactly that direction.\n\nIt used to be international students in Canada are not paying a lot more tuition than Canadian students. But Canadian universities saw how much money universities in the US are making so they asked the federal government to change the policy to enable them to charge international students several times the regular tuition (whereas in countries like France, international students actually pay less than citizens). So now Canadian universities rely too much on international students to operate and it becomes an exploitative relationship even before students step foot on the campus. The new PGWP eligibility is awful because students can make contributions in every field. It might (and that's a big if) address the pressing problems, but it won't help Canada grow.\n\nI thought the new language requirement was interesting. Some Canadians who immigrated decades ago when the bar was really low still speak English poorly and now they are saying people can’t come to Canada because their language skills are not sufficient. Another point about language is if you apply through Express Entry now, even if you scored the highest language score, given how competitive the pool is, you still won’t get selected. So it’s a given that you need to be fluent in one of the languages at least to get an invitation. Express Entry also selects only the top people, I saw the head of The Institute for Canadian Citizenship in interviews talking about those top-tier people only expect the best treatment/lifestyle when they come to Canada. That's why many of them leave after seeing these Canadian problems play out. But I believe a good Canadian life is not about living in a high rise in Vancouver and Toronto, driving an expensive car, or buying luxury items...it's about the communities, nature and middle-class comfort. So the system is giving PRs to the wrong kind of people (just like mismatched people when hiring that don't align with company values).\n\nThis brings me to the last frustrating issue. There were so many people who attended “fake” universities and bought “fake” jobs to earn points to get an Express Entry invitation. And it's clear that the government wasn't proactively catching these abuses. They are taking up spots from those who try to earn the points fair and square. If I understand correctly, Canada doesn’t send these people away if they are found out (since some of them were scammed). So they still take up immigration quotas.\n\nI have wanted to move to Canada for a long time. I have visited Canada many times, hiking trails through the coastline and fjords, climbing mountains and glaciers. I lived in Montreal for two months to improve my French and I was told by my homestay family that I was the first student they had who didn’t complain about the cold (I wish the winter never ends so I can skate or xc ski in the parks year-round). I have probably seen more Canada than many Canadians and I love every bit of it. But the opportunity for me to even get a shot to move there is pretty much nonexistent now. If only there was a way for the system to allow people who really care about Canada to get a shot at being part of this beautiful country.\n\nThank you for making these videos.

New Brunswick is awful. Native French population gets the jobs even if you speak French, it’s boring and tedious with lots of dumb, unambitious people who control newcomers by assassinating their character (Korean gas station owner puts water in their tanks, the economic development guy from Ontario is a pedophile etc etc). What you save on home prices, you pay with your mental health and boredom.

Funny how u & the white people u talk to can’t talk honestly about their self distructive behavior choices. The people u spoke to were all drug addicts & from the looks of them they have been in the drug culture for a good 20 yrs, they made those choices way before those Indians went to Brampton. The only one that had a home was the French lady, also a foreigner, but she looks white enough, u didn’t have a problem with her. Here is the real problem your ignorance is showing first of all Indians were a British colony so they all speak English. Their culture values education so many of them already come to Canada with a high level of education and they are getting degrees in order to work in Canada. They believe in working & don’t expect the government to provide them with housing and all their needs like the white people sitting around in tents. Another difference is that family and kinship is valued so Indians work together to build themselves up. They may have to live in crowded housing but they r working to save to be able to buy their own homes. The problem with White people is they don’t have family unity, they view having children and inconvenience. They don’t realize that those children will become their safety net as they get older. Family helps each other out, those Indians would do anything to keep a family member from living in the streets. This would put their family in shame in their community. Canadians have something to learn from the Indians. By the way their religion disapproves of alcohol & drugs so they don’t have that problem. The working Indians r paying more taxes and supporting those drug addicts, if the Indians were not there Brampton would be a dying city. Greeting from the US.

Hmm... I'd just like to go on record in saying that the only reason Quebec is #1 in this list is because they essentially rob Alberta families through equalization handouts. Without Alberta's dirty oil money, Quebec would be nothing more than a French speaking Manitoba.

I would prefer Saskatchewan. I have been visiting via internet , library, videos. I Speak, read, write French & English fluently, others less IE: Spanish Italian.

I think the only hope for canada is to split up and form smaller countries. Albertans are sick of sending transfer payment to Quebec and never seeing any of it again. BC is a lost cause, nobody wants them, they are socialist. Let quebec and toronto form their own country and speak french if they want to.

Canada and the U.S both speak English.In Canada mainly Quebec citizens speak French(and English).
