Canadians continue to vote for open borders political parties election after election. So no, they aren't tired of invasion.

Canada's mass immigration system has never worked. Importing tens of millions of poor unskilled useless foreigners is a stupid economic strategy. Canada's Standard of Living and Productivity has been in steep decline for 50 yrs. Social chaos and racism continues to increase.

Peope dont realise this but there is no stopping immigration in Canada. The stock market anticipates huge immigration as it is the only feasible path towards growing corporate profits. If we dont have huge immmigration, the purchasing power of boomers, derived from a booming market and real estate market, will lead to massive inflation as labor shortages occur. There is nothing we can do to stop this. Boomers are going to vote Liberal and liberals will continue to flood the country with third world immigrants who cook, clean, drive, caretake, etc. Millenials and gen Z are the ones who will never own a home or start a family. And ironically the low birth rate will lead to even more immigration. I suspect that Canada will be primarily asian and african by 2060.

Does any one still not know that they are purposely flooding the Nation with no regard for the quality of life for Canadian citizens . They are Blatantly lying to the public about immigration stats . They will continue to import the vote and place them in key electoral riding's to retain power . And know one is holding them accountable . A Pathetic compliance to the downfall of existence in this country .

Stupid voters gave power to leftists. Stupid voters continue to give power to leftists. Alberta needs out.

Carney plans to continue mass immigration all while artificially propping up the housing market to avoid a price crash.

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

Stop giving New York federal money. Cancel all sanctuary city funds. Sue N Y for back financial aid if this problem continues.

it's a joke to speak like a crybaby to USA.. we're already suffering here in Canada - instead of trying to make this right with USA, we're declaring a (trade)WAR??? this fool will run Canada deeper into the ground than he already has in the last 8 years... keep in mind this guy officially resigned - why on earth is he continued to be allowed to speak this way?

Every country around the world absolutely must stand their ground against Trump and the USA. After all, he’s the perfect poster child for what happens when a bully gets handed the keys to the global playground. The power that the world once entrusted to the U.S. to uphold democracy and freedom is now being wielded by him for the sole purpose of advancing his own interests and those of his country, at the expense of the entire planet. Brilliant, right? Who needs global unity when you can have one man-child undermining everything for a little personal gain? If this continues, we’re all looking at a descent into a dark age of tyranny. And, let’s be clear—the free world can no longer afford to sit back and tolerate tyrannical regimes. It’s like we haven’t learned anything from history. Maybe we should all take a little refresher course on the rise of Nazi Germany during World War II. You know, that whole ‘allowing one leader to run roughshod over everyone else’ thing didn’t end too well.

I’ll continue purchasing Canadian-made and Canadian-owned maple syrup. Though a small gesture, I’ll make an effort to vary my choices while ensuring they remain proudly Canadian.

Russia for sure is lovely all this drama and Trump taking a wrecking ball to the US and it’s relationships around the world. They will take advantage of this chaos if he gets what he wants from the Ukraine war he will be en powered and will use Trump who is so far up his arse to continue to take land.

The United States has elected a president who is turning its longest-standing allies into adversaries. This isn't just about Canada. The entire Western world is watching. While the U.S. has the power to harm its allies, those allies also have the ability to push back, and the USA is rapidly losing friends who may not return. As America’s alliances weaken, so do the obstacles its rivals face. \n\nTake Australia, for example. Should it continue aligning with the U.S. in the Asia-Pacific region? Should it continue hosting critical American surveillance infrastructure? Should it keep supporting and supplying the U.S. fleet? The USA enjoys a trade surplus with us, but do we need to spend USD$50 billion over the next decade buying your hardware? The Europeans seem to be a more trustworthy ally, who don't make us a target.\n\nThe USA would argue that their presence ensures security, but the reality is that countries like Australia only face threats because they are tied to U.S. strategic interests. Perhaps a more pragmatic approach that avoids unnecessary antagonism with China would serve us better. \n\nAs for Canada, it will adapt and find new trading partners, just as Australia did when China attempted economic coercion. And through it all, Canada, know that Australia will stand with you—always.

TRUMP IS KGB AGENT The The material “Trump is a KGB agent” is based on exclusive information received from a former high-ranking employee of the GRU of the USSR Ministry of Defense (Soviet intelligence). For the first time, shocking details of Donald Trump's years-long cooperation with the KGB and FSB are revealed. According to the insider, Russian intelligence services not only recruited him back in 1978, but also played a key role in winning the 2024 election. This data could be the basis for impeachment and even charges of treason. \n \nAleksandr Sotnik (born 1968) is an independent journalist, publicist, analyst and writer. Since 2012, he has covered protest actions across Russia, and was one of the few reporters who documented events in the midst of political crises. In 2014, he founded the independent channel Sotnik-TV, where he published interviews with leading opposition figures, including Boris Nemtsov, Garry Kasparov and others. \nAs an active participant in civil society, he took part in organizing the March Against Scoundrels (2013), the Peace March (2014) and other protest events. In 2018, due to threats of physical violence, he was forced to leave Russia with his family. First he lived in Lithuania, then moved to Slovakia, where he continues his activities as an independent journalist and publicist. \nIn 2023, the Russian authorities added him to the Rosfinmonitoring register as an “extremist and terrorist”, which was yet another example of political pressure on independent journalists. \nToday, Alexander Sotnik continues to work in exile and remains one of the most consistent independent political analysts and journalists exposing the Russian political system and its mechanisms of influen

Trudeau is a clown. This is a guy who thwarts free speech and jailed his own people and took their money away during peaceful protests. Canada has enjoyed a a trade surplus against us forever. They also do not have to pay for military since they are right next to us. They should be doing whatever we want. Canada was sending recyclable trash to the Philippines. When the trash arrived it was not recyclable. Philippine president said stop sending but Canada continued to send it. So finally he said if you send one more ship, we will declare no war on you. And if that happened, without US help, even the Philippines would destroy Canada in a war. Way more fighting aged males and Canada has a worthless military. Canada has a GDP of 5-10% of US. So Trudeau acting tough is hilarious. Like a chihuahua barking at a grisly bear. If push came to shove, in the time of US war need, the US would simply take whatever it wanted from Canada. That's what happens when you don't develop your own substantial military-just like Europe now.

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

As long as Trump voters don’t understand that they need to pay for this, this stupid agenda of raising tariffs on foreign goods will continue.

The real reason US put tariffs on Canada: \n\nCanada has zero nukes- so they have zero deterrence. The USA has 3,748 nukes. \nCanada has zero aircraft carriers. The USA has 11 nuclear aircraft carriers. The entire rest of the world has 16, but only one is nuclear. \nCanada has zero destroyers! The USA has 65 Top Tier destroyers. \nCanada has only 85 operational fighter jets, but they are outdated and scheduled to be replaced. The USA has 2,740 with 786 being the latest Gen. \nCanada has 82 Leopard 2 tanks and only some are third Gen. The US has 8,100 tanks and they are all third Gen. \n2.3 million Canadians own 12 million guns, but many are low caliber and low use/capable. Canadians privately hold about 2.3 Billion rounds of ammo, but most is smaller caliber hunting rounds. \n81 million Americans own about 400 Million guns with extensive capabilities and usability, including permitted full automatic. The storehouse of privately held ammo is massive in the range of 2 to 25 trillion rounds. \n40% of Americans are raised in a gun culture and develop and hone their weapon use skills for a lifetime. 22% of Canadians have a similar gun culture. \n \nCanada has gotten away with having a weak military and saving enormous costs by not having to produce or buy military equipment. \n\nThe USA has never charged a fee for providing deterrence to potential enemies, and in fact pays Canada on a massive trade deficit instead. Canada exacerbates their precarious situation, by continuing to take guns away from their population.

Keep up the good fight! You can overcome this terrible disease and continue your beautiful life!

We should put a big export tax on Preperation h because the Americans will be needing a lot more of that cream while this tariff war continues

Justin Destroyed Canada with his unending foolish spending, taxes and corruption,, said he would step down, shut down the government instead and continued acting as Prime Minister while opposition has been muted. He is not a legitimate leader and his words are empty. He is a drama teacher with a script and does the only thing he knows how. He acts. And now he's acting like the tough guy and that he cares about Canada when after nine years in power, it is clear he didn't. Time to get rid of the globalist and all the others. He is not a decent man.

None of this ever benefits the working class!!! Politucians and allies making millions while we continue to be robbed out our paychecks and property taxes!!

I’ve seen Americans calling us siblings, people from Australia and New Zealand calling us cousins, and the rest of the world calling us friends. It’s very heartwarming, thank you all. \n\nMeanwhile, my prayers go out to everyone from Ukraine. We will not be distracted from our continued support for you throughout all of this.

Trump wants the war in the Ukraine to stop. Canada goes and gives Z another 5 b to continue the war, instead of putting money into our own armed forces to meet even the minimum amount required by NATO. hmmm.

I'm sure other more friendly countries will continue to trade with Canada, without penalties.\nTrump is not a diplomat, not a statesman, and not really presidential material; the US just didn't have much to choose from.

Isnt the US in Nato? And Canada is beginning attacked means they have to step up and help them ? what a mess. EU continues are doing it but not the US. Worst partner ever

While the idea of economic instability was not even accepted as a possibility, the markets are trying to tell us collapse is likely, even eminent if escalations continue to suppress value.

Canadá wants to continue benefiting from USA Just like China without paying!!

Trump will fail US if he continues with his arrogance

As a German citizen: our US friends make me so sad and scared at the same time. After our people were defeated, we learned (at least for many of us) where nationalism and hatred can lead and how important international cooperation is. You were our friends as the Canadians were and are. Please come to your senses dear US friends. Underneath all the bad, I hope that the Canadian-European partnership can continue to grow

if Trump continues, gonna get himself only himself f**ked

Please Please Please DO NOT RESIGN! Trudeau should continue be our leader. He is smart! He is the best! But US has to change one Law, the one where Obama can come back to lead US. He was the best president of US history! Ever! Trump has to go. He lost it... I cant believe how anyone voted for him anyways, but what's done is done. Fix it now.

Our borders aren't safe. Trudeau opened up our borders to allow all these immigrants into our country and mow have ISIS terrorist here in Canada. Trudeau is the biggest terrorist in this country. We wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for Trudeau. He is the biggest liar. He put Canadians at risk. Since Trudeau got in the suicide rates have gone up and it's Trudeau who is at fault. We are fed up with what he has and continues to do and we are feeling completely lost with how we are going to get out of this mess. Canadians want an election for our prime minister. We want Trudeau gone. We don't have any faith in our government officials.

Trump is what is best for our Country! Love him or hate him- he doesn’t care and continue doing what’s right for America. \n\n-Shane

I met a couple from Alberta this weekend. They would rather join the US than continue under your corruption. Bye bye ?

What are the tariffs about? Really!!! You can't figure it out? Let me spelt out in simple syllables. Donald Dump is ONLY interested in HIS own power and wealth. No other single person or group has any importance to Dump. That includes the economy, the federal government, and individuals like Musk and Vance. Look out Musk and Vance, at his next funky, wavy, wobbly brain fart Donnie Dump might throw you under the bus, like he has done for millions of Americans who have lost their jobs and lost the benefits they deserve and some must have to continue living.\nDump Trump!!

Watch trump weaponize this to paint Canada as an enemy of America to justify future shenanigans and Senate Republicans will continue to just eat it right up smh

It's simple replace 1.5 million jobs we stand to loose with factories here in Canada with products we would have bought from the state's. There r the jobs back. Then make deals with other countries and in 4 years when Trump is done and the state's want to work with us with tariffs again say sorry we have other partners don't have the extra supplies. And continue making Canada great again

Elon and Donald are isolating USA. No one will be our ally if we continue this charade. We will stand alone.

Trump is in it for destruction, the more complete the destruction the better. USAID destruction is only an example. Trump will continue to destroy and destroy because his whole agenda from the very beginning is to destroy rather than to build, that’s his design his way to get the most attention, building and constructing is tedious and long term and requires sacrifices, and does not garner him the blasting short term attention he needs, he will never build. He will destroy everything until he dies and his end goal is to go out with a Bang destroying the entire US of A and killing everyone with him. That’s what Hitler did to German just before he died. That is Trump. Trump is America and America has always been Trump?

I don't care how much you guys sing or what tune you guys rather play as long as Americans will be addicted to illegal drugs the illegal drugs will always find their way into united states and as long as illegal drugs is get rich quick for some illegal drugs will always find their in united states they huff and puff and keep huffing and puffing the illegal drugs will continue to make their way into united states very simple supply and demand

Pls don't get me wrong. I love my president right or wrong. But Trudeau makes a very compelling point. This is not the smartest thing to be doing with these tariffs. Someone pls correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the reason President Trump brought the imposition of tariffs on Canada and Mexico in the 1st place was for them to do more about stopping the flow of Phentenol (excuse if spelling is wrong) into our country. I thought both countries have stepped up to do just that already. No? If so then why continue with this stupidness?

Wait a sec… wasn’t he gonna step down? Wth?! When are peeps gonna start calling these elites on things that look like lies & continuing to lead the people on while looking shameless and embarassing themselves up there & not keeping promises? Hmmm… how long have they had to pick a new person?

Anyone of sound mind, a leader, a government would want to continue to strengthen relationships with it's neighbors BUT instead, deliberately dismantle it and let it's citizens in both countries pay the price. And once again dirty filthy politicians are not looking out for it's citizens. Why are people in power so hell bent on ruining the world?

The world will have a new leader for the free and not misinformed world if this Elon/Trump show continues.\nThe USA is historically divided and has historically bad friends in the world.

Makes sense what the US is doing when you understand that the current administration is trying to destroy the middle class... Continuing Reagan's fight against the middle class.

Thanks for making it clear what you did right but not making it clear on what the US administration wanted from you that you said no to that caused the tariff implementation. It's possible you miss 50% of your illegal border crossings into the u.s. since so much of your border isn't secured. The 1900% increase in illegal crossing in the past few years doesn't look very good. It's dumb to assume you did everything right and then the u.s. just randomly decided they'd continue with the tariffs for fun. Be more honest and say where you put your foot down so the American public can better understand what is going on.

Bye bye Trudeau ....what about the money exchanges.... Should be 35 % & let's have a normal government that can't be manipulated by A Trudeau character - who shuts the government down then continues to blah blah blah ...anybody could do what he is saying ....... Anybody !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quit being a worshipper of a men & make out country STRONG....Make deals with other countries & ignore the States for now ...shut them out .\n.quit yapping about them , just move on and ahead ....don't be yappy ...useless ....BE PROGRESSIVE...DO ... gonna do something, don't talk just Blank

commie news network, we don't care. you'd think you've learned your lesson with your pathetic ratings or the spankings you've received with just pure statistics, and yet you continue to play lefty games...canada will fold shortly, we don't need what they have.

Continue to stay strong Canada ??\n\nThere is nothing you can do to satisfy the current administration.
