as a Canadian, i would like to thank Donald and Elon for their plans to implement the most innovative degrowth agenda imaginable. why dance around the edges like Canada has with its consumer carbon tax that rebated more money to most citizens than they spent on carbon taxes ? no, the DOGE solution to addressing climate change is much better .. just cripple the three north american economies with tariffs, put hundreds of thousands of citizens out of work, and make the Trump tax cuts permanent so that the federal government is broke as well. no more money means no more spending or consuming .. it's a win for the entire planet !!

The problem is that Canada enjoys American friendship as long as it is costing America hundreds of billions of dollars. Trump simply wants a fair playing field. Why must America always take the short end of the stick. The moment we get a government that ask for things to be fair all these countries that have benefited rush to complain.

Then the United States of America will fall. No big deal. Two hundred plus years was a pretty good run. Let me know when we start getting warlords in the US. I want too apply for the position.

10:40 whether or not Trudeau is in office is not going to change anything. There's about a hundred other people that you could pick a fight with instead of Canada. \n\n\nYou'd probably be in everyone's interest if you just took responsibility for your own fiscal mismanagement. We are not your de facto piggy bank.

Trump doesn't care about US jobs. He and the people who surround him are independently wealthy. They have already, in a few weeks, eliminated hundreds of thousands of jobs which support the running of the United States. Vital services, including VA hospitals, have been reduced. \nI support Canada, as a US citizen, against this US illogical behavior.

You guys have not mentioned the $ 2 hundred Billion that's given to Canada every year.WHY ... THATS WHAT IT ABOUT..

You know the truth President Trumpet, about Canada as our evidence proving sir that Canada’s Governments hire the international known Biker Criminal Organizations to put the Hit on Canadians whom have evidence against Canada’s very corrupted Criminal politicians of the Liberal Party and Conservatives whom for decades across Canada with their provincial underlings have turned Canada into a a Pro Domestice Organized Criminal state , all biker gangs in Canada and mafia have complete Criminal Immunity by all of Canada’s governments. Trudeau Pollievre are iars along with their provincial counter parts. Trudeau currently the head of his governments criminal syndicate’s. The governments of Canada are guilty of criminal acts against us by very much approving and hiring biker gangs and all their street thugs as well as many members of police and national security supporting these gang institutions with complete criminal immunity. The fact is that All of Canada’s allies that have embassies in Ottawa have protected Canada’s clear defined terrorist acts against my wife and I for almost 20 years one government after the other. The Trudeau Government has cut trade deals with other member states that include these nations forced to as part of the Trudeau liberal conservative agenda in trade agreements with out this being written with in those trade agreements that member states must adhere to a collective part of trade agreements that no nation in such agreements is allowed to present any criminal evidence against the governments of Canada by Canadian citizens . Factum. The Trudeau government and their entire Parliament of opposition are so frightened of our 20 years of evidence that they have closed off all my videos on YouTube to the public both with in Canada and outside Canada. The world cannot become all gangster states and gangster statemen for this will destroy the nations. Canada’s prime ministers have lied and lied and lied they do not at all deal with internal domestic criminal gang terrorism they secretly endorce all of it. Many American peoples suffer from the governments of Canada’s secret criminal gang Drug Trade. Trudeau for example decided to legalise cannabis a industry run by all the criminal organizations in Canada prior to legalisation making hundreds of millions of pot laundering drug money, Trudeau decides he wants a cut of the pot trade so he legalises all the criminal organizations running illegal grow operations now licenced to legally operate across Canada and sell pot legally to Canadians paying revenue Canada tens of millions in taxes the same organizations are now licienced by Trudeau to grow operations these same groups also are involved in international illegal drug activity in with South American Cartels and Mexican Cartels. Trump must come clean with God and take action against Canada 75 percent sanctions must employed. The reason why Canada refuses to join the U.S as a 51’s state is because we would then fall under the U.S Justice System and then the U.S would be shocked to see that Canada is a criminal state.

From Brazil: I agree hundred percent with Trudeau

Trudeau cares more about me and my fellow Americans than Trump does!! Trump needs to take a page (maybe an encyclopedia set) on leadership from Trudeau! Notice that he is doing all he can to protect Canadian jobs and people during this trade while Trump is firing hundreds of thousands of American workers, causing the layoffs of more, and doesn't give a hoot about tanking the economy! On behalf of those who did not vote for Trump thank you Canada and Trudeau. I am sorry .

You idiots better wake up the USA has protected your ass for hundreds of yrs you need us way more than we need you period. What a bunch of idiots. Lol

I'm an American and I'm beyond disgusted that the convicted felon adjudicated rapist Dictator worshipper Dictator wannabe was allowed to run for any political office especially President. I believe Musk's vote counting system corrupted the election. I have never and never will vote for Trump and his evil co conspirators. Now some of the MAGA voters are regretting their votes, well they chose to believe the cons lies over the easily verifiable facts especially Project 2025 that again lied on national TV that he knew nothing about Project 2025 yet his name is on hundreds of pages in project 2025 documents. Trump and his goons belong in prison.\nI support and love Canada and Ukraine. Devastating that the real elected President Kamala Harris was robbed of that because of manipulation and foreign interference. Americans are suffering and the suffering will get worse except for the top wealthiest.\nThank you Prime Minister for standing up to the biggest deranged bully on Earth and all the countries that are supporting Canada.\nIt disturbs me beyond words, I have generations in my family that have served in our military, ,my father served in WWII and Korea he fought at the Battle of the Bulge and liberated Buchenvald concentration camp the atrocities he witnessed affected him for the rest of his life, and here we have a 5 time draft dodger whose rich daddy paid a Dr to falsify deferment paperwork for phoney bone spurs, he's a coward and a bully

Wait, doesn’t he realize that destroying our institutions, safety and health, firing hundreds of thousands of Americans, stealing their private data, and social security, destroying the economy and our global security…and now, imposing insane tariffs on our allies to further destroy our economy is all destroying people’s lives, the economy and our democracy? Uhmm, YEAH, THATS THE F__KING POINT. But you’re definitely not going to glean that from corporate news media.

This is just a sampling of what happens when you elect an official do the highest office in the land while this individual Donald Trump is Holden s official position as dog catcher is out of his ability. The issue on fentanyl, is a intoxicant that will not and cannot be defeated. This is a total failure on the government's inability to protect its own citizens that is their number one job.. The only solution that I have heard that remotely makes any sense is the Cato institute conclusion that the wisest route to go is completely legalization with age restrictions. While this may not be the desired outcome it's the only one that I see that makes any sense whatsoever it seems that when a solution like this offered so many individuals who have no gravitas in this matter will come back to the same nonsensical bulshit that they're going to stop the flow that is absolutely impossible. However we will continue on that course and we will continue to fail. The Cato Institute was initially funded by the Koch brothers a extremely conservative organization that gets together a group of the brightest and the best in trying to determine what is the best solution.the Koch brothers were the group that invented the tea party I would love for anybody who disagrees with this post. I would like anybody who thinks that this is a far-fetched idea ,all I ask is that if you disagree with the finding that it should be legal with age restrictions if you disagree I would like to hear a solution that you have in mind that you think is better than the Cato Institute finding. I am under the impression that you do not have anything that remotely resembles a solution to this terrible problem. Right off the bat, with uality control, you'll stop hundreds of thousands of deaths. All of the issues that are being dealt with are just so screwed up because we've already been through this before. After making a constitutional amendment to ban the manufacturing of alcohol it was reversed and I hope that the country realize that we cannot win this battle with the same mindset. The only reason why fentanyl is such a dangerous intoxicant is because there's no quality control. Also the cartels are not affected negatively \nBy allowing the government deal with this problem. the end result would be not only do you save lives but you also have put a very negative Spike through their heart of the cartel in the pocketbook. Incense elan musk & DOGE cost cutting measures since this War on drugs has caused over a trillion dollars and no 6:28 results. The DEA does not remotely live up to its mission statement and has failed every year since that policy was put in place. I would love to hear any feedback and a solution that is remotely possible.. let's hear some original ideas that the country would benefit from.. the ball is in your court.

Wow! American here. I just scrolled through hundreds of responses, looking for idiots spouting maga talking points, and did not find a single one. This gives me hope. I just hope MAGA comes to their senses before our economy is ruined. Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, and thank you, Canada.

What has Canada and European countries done to actually try and end the death and destruction from this war? Europe buys energy from Russia, and Canada is only giving 650 million dollars in weapons over three years, while America has supplied hundreds of billions of dollars in aid and military equipment. Zelensky goes around the world dressed in a military outfit with no desire to stop the slaughter of humans on both sides. There have been thousands of wars where, eventually, one side has to accept the reality that they can not win, Zelensky is unwilling to see this. President Trump was elected because we want his AMERICA FIRST AGENDA, and with us saddled with 36 TRILLION dollars of debt, this war needs to stop.

If Trump and his crew want America to become a 'hermit' kingdom, go for it. Decouple from the global economy and suffer. There's hundreds of millions of us ready to get angry.

CLOWN! ? WAIT UNTIL HE STOPS THE HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS THE USA GIVES CANADA.

In the past, it took at least a century for humans to discover new theories, knowledge, create new innovation, or create any civilization. For example, Sir Isaac Newton announced Newton's law of universal gravitation in 1687.\n It took 200 years for Albert Einstein to publish his “Theory of Relativity” in 1905 and 1915.\n But the world today after the arrival of the first electronic computer in the middle of the 20th century (1940 - 1945), since then everything related to humans has been continuously developed at an accelerated rate!!!\n Human civilizations in the past took hundreds or thousands of years to develop before gradually collapsing in less time than it took to form.\n Now a day with the advances in technology and IT communications that we have today. We might be able to see a great empire collapse with in an overnight. Vice versa a great politicians became... savages that no one wanted in the blink of an eye!

I live in Vancouver and it has the largest open air drug market in North America. I can't recall Trudeau ever speaking about the Fentanyl pandemic so frequently. I worked with NPO's when they declared a public health emergency...hundreds were dying a month, and it seemed at the time that there was so little dialogue due to fear of public backlash for taking a stance on this issue.\n\nI'm not trying to get on a soap box here...but I'm just shocked. I could have given Trudeau a 5 minute drive through main and hastings in my 1998 RAV4 to show him how bad it is, and was...I wonder if he would have opened up this much?

Have you thought about the corruption from Ukraine? They are not an ally. I’m a veteran also. Served 14 years, not just 4 like most. Please understand that hundreds of billions of dollars and equipment have been sent over there. What more can they be given?

Trumps small, petty ego battles are very costly to the average American and to lives around the world. Trump does not care. He is incapable of empathy. His ego battle and extortion racket with Zelenskyy is costing lives. Trump doesn't care. A hundred thousand extra lives were lost during Covid in America because of Trumps, ignorance, lies and disinformation. Trump didn't care. Lives were lost in Haiti because of Trumps hurricane response incompetence. Trump could have cared less. Trump sold out the Kurds in Syria. Thousands of lives were lost. Trump didn't care. He's a sick man and American voted him in. Now we have to live with it. Here in America, there is going to be a step too far. For half of America, Trump is way passed that. Dictators only respond to strength. Thank you Canada for making a strong and firm stand.

This is total Anti US propoganda ! This man is about as sinister as they come, and in bed with billionaire led WEF ! He clearly displayed that in his lock step response to covid and how he treated his citizens ( like caged animals)! This leader is a socialist and has nothing to offer Americans but to leech our tax dollars & use our military defenses for protection without contributing their fare share to support it! We have been the sugar daddy to so many nations with only the consequence of our tax dollars not improving our nation, but every other that we are used by! I’m not a maga but, but this president is using leverage the US still has ( although we’ve suffered greatly under the Biden Admin ). President Trump is trying to balance our budget by smart and fair trade, that puts this country’s legal citizens first! Fair trade hasn’t existed for many years, and while there may be increases felt by these tarrifs, our hope is that long term we manufacture more excellent goods here & use more of our own natural resources! Those commenting about what we are doing to Ukraine need to get their heads out if the sand…the Ukrainian people don’t want Zelinski but cannot get rid of him! He has taken hundreds of billions of dollars from the US and has no plan for peace in his nation…Pres Trump says enough is enough, and he is trying to not only end the war, but recoup massive amounts of money we wrongly gave through a deal for natural resources. Sounds like a plan that’s good for everyone involved, and that’s how you make deals! We cannot give whst we do not have & with our debt , we cannot afford to keep printing money, devaluing the dollar, and giving it away at the expense of hard working N Americans!

Trudeau a dictator himself himself sit down we fired that shameless embarrassment two months ago he screwed us by allowing unlimited economic migrants millions into Canada illegally many who illegally crossed into the US illegally they did little for years to stem the flow of hard drugs organized crime out of control clandestine drug labs all over Canada now hundreds of thousands of Canadians dead from overdose he screwed us now Trump is screwing us we are really screwed with this clown show at the helm still we should have had an election a year ago so a competent government was installed working instead the Liberal red green show is in charge

Canada been mooching off the usa for decades! Maybe Canada should volunteer to drop all the tariffs they have on us if they want to be friends. Why is it ok for them to have tariffs on us but we can't have tariffs on them? Canada started this terrific war years ago and the USA NEVER DEFENDED THEMSELVES! Why do we call them our ally when all they do is take? We have a hundred billion dollar trade deficit with them already. Canada funds their imaginary socialist utopia off the backs of Americans and it's time to stop the bleeding.

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

The rural parts of America, where people wear military style clothing, work out so much they have oversized body muscles, and style their head and facial hair so crazily, driving heavy duty trucks with anti -American government bumper stickers, they are the right wing domestic terrorists. In those mountainous rural counties you will come across poor grade roads with gates and chains at the entrance to hundreds of fortress compounds. The women are way too thin, often with frightened, glazed looks in their eyes. Both the men and women will give anyone a way too long piercing stare. They live too far away from any place to work so many of the carefully obscured building complexes, often jammed against sheer tall walls of rocks, have to be making something inside!

Lol Canada only exists because we subsidize you two hundred and fifty billion dollars a year of our taxes show so dam respect

It's like a backyard mechanic, change out hundreds of dollars worth of parts, just to find out it was a 2 dollar fuse that was the problem.

I am from Germany, and I see Canada as an ally. Trump is the devil in person, and I think all other free countries should stand together now. Only together we can stand against, Trump. Trump thinks the world is in the 1800 hundreds, and It's ok to attack allies and friends.

Let us not forget, that there is also a boycott of travel to the United States which means there are billions of dollars that will not be spent on travel, on accommodation, on the purchase of goods while in the States because there is no longer vacation or travel being done by Canada. That is going to be hundreds of billions of dollars lost to US coffers. This is going to hurt America deeply.

Do Americans know how much this is going to hurt Canadians? Like 1 month of this, this surrent population may never forgive the US after all this. It Crazy, hundreds of thousands of jobs at stake, and for what?

Trump & Musk feel that 759 Billionaires are much more important than the citizens of the USA. GET THAT...759! Not 759 thousand or even 759 hundred, but, 759 INDIVIDUAL BILLIONAIRES on the backs of 290million people!

The property taxes or any taxes in Canada are basically flat, Person with 1 home or a tiny home pays property tax, people with mansions and multiple homes also pay a similar rate, and corporations who own hundreds of properties pay almost no tax. Rental income should be a side gig, not your main income. Income tax starts at minimum wage, which is insane, and grows until the upper middle class but after that, people can just get paid in stocks which are not taxed. Canada needs Asset taxes, you can't just sit on a pile of wealth and retire young, you gotta work for your money, otherwise your country will have nothing.

In the past decade in India, hundreds of arts and engineering colleges were closed due to shortage of students. Couple of universities were closed. Programs were reduced. These colleges lost crorers of investment due to non-available students. Instead of blaming our students, why to blame Canada.

Most illegal migrants spend thousands of dollars to commit the crime (entering any sovereign country illegally is simply an invasion). If they dare to enter China or any of the Arab countries this way, then who knows, they would be in heaven or hell rather than back home. All the deportees should be arrested on reaching back home for invading a foreign sovereign country and tarnishing the images of hundreds of millions of citizens of their countries who enter the USA or any other developed democratic country to study at the best of the universities, and after completion of the courses, they are not only provided the best of the jobs but also citizenship or other legal status to stay put in the countries. But these people reach their desired destination after going through rigorous educational and other processes and after a thorough background check. But in the matter of illegal immigrants, how are the victimized countries supposed to know their backgrounds? How can one be sure if they are not hardcore criminals, terrorists, spies, or even trained soldiers of enemy countries? In such uncertainty, how can the invaded countries be sure that an incident or incidents of such a large magnitude might not take place that, in comparison, the incident of 9/11 would look like the small incident of bursting firecrackers?But on one election promise, the president is, unfortunately, taking a complete U-turn that those students who do the master's and other higher studies should be retained and provided legal status to stay in the country as their contributions are needed to give the country the perpetual cutting edge in the highly competitive world and keep the country's status as number one. These scholars are feeling cheated that by spending huge amounts of money and contributing to the research and development during the studies, they have not only been taken for a ride but also become the main target of the deportation campaign as their status is available with the government. On the other hand, millions of undocumented workers are comparatively safe, as tracing and deporting them is not an easily achievable task. Besides, millions of foreign citizens are given entry into the country on flimsy grounds, and many of them do not even ever go to elementary school. I think even God would not be able to make out what the fuck this country has become on this issue. Almost the same is the situation with most of the EU countries, the UK, Australia, and Canada.

Obviously they are still paying hundreds of millions to house the illegals in hotels?? Doge what??

Canada had 198,929 thousand migrants in 2024 fiscal year crossing from USA to Canada. \nsame stuff but hundreds of thousands taxi delivers them right to the border to cross into Canada. \nI wounder why this video does not mention how many cross from USA to Canada. \nGoogle it ....

Considering that this video is already 2 days old (which is dinosaur extinct for YouTube) I already have 26 tiny little views but still not bad for two hours even though my Pediphile lol comments gets hundreds of views and I don’t get kicked off YouTube for at least 24 hours a time if not longer lol

I wish Trump would pay citizens a hundred a head for information leading to deportation. I have the phone number for ICE in my phone just in case I need it, I suggest you should too.

What did Trailways charge us per passenger, Northface per quilted black jacket, foodbanks per meal, hospitals per patient? Sorry I can't name the hundreds of other profiteers.

After Sep 11 there was a huge outrage about how the hijackers could have possibly entered the US. Now we have hundreds of people on the terror watch list entering with seemingly no concern.

Over four hundred on the terror watch list. Wow

These are Indians who were on student visas with the only intention was to fast track into entering the country. It was out of control as they were coming in by the hundreds of thousands. Crooked people were forming fake schools to get government money and these fake students weren't even attending class.\nCanadians were fed up of seeing this invasion of Indians and slimy Trudeau decided stop this quick entry scam scared he was going to lose the next election.\nThese cheaters are supposed to go home and now it looks like their looking for another scam. These people has no respect for anyone let them freeze.

For the Canadians apologizing for migrants crossing to New York, did they apologize to you for the hundreds of thousands that crossed from the US into Canada? For those saying shame on the Governor for letting them come in to New York, did they also say shame on the mayor of New York City for loading up busses with migrants and dropping them off close to the Canadian border? Go ahead, get juvenile and scream names at me for telling the truth.

Something about having a wheely suitcase and crossing a border illegally makes me madder then people who do it with backpacks and treck on foot for hundreds of kms haha

Imagine if the hundreds of billions sent to Ukraine, and all the other crazy places was spent on making these places stable and prosperous, then people would not want to leave home, or spent on border control, health, education and anti corruption.

Not true that Americans can barely find housing themselves….there are 15.1 million vacant homes. There are thousands of unsold new houses. \n\nCorporations own hundreds of thousands of homes that they outbid and blocked regular americans from buying?

Clear response. Calm. Concise. But gives no real help in the hundreds of years issues….. it’s not that easy. It is complicated. However a smile helps in at least being calm and trying to mask an illusion of peace.

India makes their visas, oci cards etc very difficult. I don't think India are in a position to complain about other countries. Here in the UK do you know how many hundreds of thousands of illegal Indian immigrants that are here???? That's the reason.

You think that they care? Well they don't as much. Also India is just a consumer base. The talent they get from India are dying to get the PR or citizenship of the foreign nation. Even if 1 indian tourist out of 20 create a fuss or throw garbage here and there, they whole country loses face. But that shear number of 1/20 due to such a huge population is so high that it become hundreds. Hence the sentiment of rejection.
