Why Canada is NOT responding to President Trump call: To secure & stop flowing of FENTANYL to US through CANADA-US border.

China is laughing at US. China can do wonder. Deepseek is an example. Let's wait how China responds.

you don't attack your f allies. trump is wrong here. canada has to respond.

Hopefully people around the world respond by buying as little as possible from the US (especially from the billionaires and states that support Trump). Trump is going to try to divide and conquer, and if the US will attack Canada, no democracy is immune.

TRUMP II\n\nSo cool, NAFTA raises Government revenue. Mexico, Canada & USA.\n\n10% for Red China?\n\nThat's good for a laugh. Doubt Red China will respond as these is the INTERNAL AFFAIRS of NAFTA.\n\n?❤

According to google Canada's experts to Usa were 590billion dollars in 2023 and president trump put a %25 tariff for all of it excluding energy.\nNow Canada responded with 30 billion tariff with same rate things such as florida orange juice, tennessee whiskey ... and planning to put another 120billion worth of goods of Usa don't lift the tariffs in 21 days. In any way from these numbers, it looks like Usa is going to rip off canada a lot.\n\nReal response should have been %25 tariff to all usa goods without exception until they lift their tariffs!

Prime Minister Trudeau responded with grace and guts. That is how its done when confronted by a crazed bully.

Canada and Mexico need to respond with force, not just proportionately. Trump is a bully and bullies only respond to other bullies. Both countries should shut down Ford and General Motors factories which supply components to their US factories, as a start. When all the US CEO's start screaming at trump, he might listen.

This is what happens when you offer free phones, free cash cards, free housing, free food, free medical, drivers license…this all stems from the Biden administration! They sent out invitations and illegals are responding

What a disgusting, deceptive and Zionist supporting question to ask.... Well responded to.

U can respond all u want but ur ass is history

Does she ever STFU and stop interrupting people whenever they respond to her questions? \n\nRhetorical question.\n\nBye bye ?? ❤

Question for you CNN. Why haven't you done an update video on the fact that the President of Colombia backed down once Trump responded to him? Oh wait, I know why. You guys only like to give one side of a story.

Convicted Felon \n\nThe migrants are welcome and they will come back no matter if you like it or not. \n\nForget what the Criminal Felon says.\n\n\n****Anyone who respond to my comment will be talking to themselves. I never receive any notifications for comments so if you like talking to yourself, go right ahead.*****

Gustavo Petro responded to Trump beautifully.

lol, Colombia just responded with 25% raise tariffs, LOL

Well, the commercial balance benefits the US at the moment, Colombia responding with tariffs will tend to hur the US the most, but what important it's populism.

COLUMBIAN PRESIDENTS MESSAGE TO TRUMP - I don’t like your oil, Trump. You are going to wipe out the human species because of greed. Maybe one day, over a glass of whiskey—which I accept despite my gastritis—we can talk frankly about this. But it’s difficult because you consider me an inferior race, and I am not. Nor is any Colombian. If you know someone who is stubborn, that’s me—period. You can try to carry out a coup with your economic strength and arrogance, like they did with Allende, but I will die in my law. I resisted torture, and I resist you. \n \nI don’t want slavers next to Colombia. We’ve already had many, and we freed ourselves. You may kill me, but I will survive in my people, who were here in the Americas long before yours. We are people of the winds, the mountains, the Caribbean Sea, and of freedom. You don’t like our freedom? Fine. I don’t shake hands with white slavers. I shake hands with the white libertarian heirs of Lincoln and the black and white farm boys of the USA—at whose graves I cried and prayed on a battlefield I reached after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from COVID. They are the United States, and before them, I kneel. Before no one else. \n \nOverthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. Your blockade does not scare me because Colombia, besides being a country of beauty, is the heart of the world. I know you love beauty, as I do. Do not disrespect it, or you will lose its sweetness. From today on, Colombia is open to the entire world with open arms. We are builders of freedom, life, and humanity. \n \nI am informed that you imposed a 50% tariff on the fruits of our human labor to enter the United States. I do the same. Let our people plant corn—which was discovered in Colombia—and feed the world. And so now, less than one week into this, I say: We will stand firm. We will resist. We will thrive. \n \nThe president of Colombia does not want a U.S. military plane in his country—and fair enough. Instead, he brings his people home in style, aboard his presidential plane. It’s a statement of dignity, independence, and pride. Colombia stands firm, choosing its own path and honoring its people with the respect they deserve.

Colombia's President said >>>> Trump, I don't really like travelling to the US, it's a bit boring, but I confess that there are some commendable things. I like going to the black neighbourhoods of Washington, where I saw an entire fight in the US capital between blacks and Latinos with barricades, which seemed like nonsense to me, because they should join together. \n \nI confess that I like Walt Whitman and Paul Simon and Noam Chomsky and Miller \n \nI confess that Sacco and Vanzetti, who have my blood, are memorable in the history of the USA and I follow them. They were murdered by labor leaders with the electric chair, the fascists who are within the USA as well as within my country \n \nI don't like your oil, Trump, you're going to wipe out the human species because of greed. Maybe one day, over a glass of whiskey, which I accept, despite my gastritis, we can talk frankly about this, but it's difficult because you consider me an inferior race and I'm not, nor is any Colombian. \n \nSo if you know someone who is stubborn, that's me, period. You can try to carry out a coup with your economic strength and your arrogance, like they did with Allende. But I will die in my law, I resisted torture and I resist you. I don't want slavers next to Colombia, we already had many and we freed ourselves. What I want next to Colombia are lovers of freedom. If you can't accompany me, I'll go elsewhere. Colombia is the heart of the world and you didn't understand that, this is the land of the yellow butterflies, of the beauty of Remedios, but also of the colonels Aureliano Buendía, of which I am one, perhaps the last. \n \nYou will kill me, but I will survive in my people, which is before yours, in the Americas. We are peoples of the winds, the mountains, the Caribbean Sea and of freedom. \n \nYou don't like our freedom, okay. I don't shake hands with white slavers. I shake hands with the white libertarian heirs of Lincoln and the black and white farm boys of the USA, at whose graves I cried and prayed on a battlefield, which I reached after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from Covid. \n \nThey are the United States and before them I kneel, before no one else. \n \nOverthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. \n \nColombia now stops looking north, looks at the world, our blood comes from the blood of the Caliphate of Cordoba, the civilization of that time, of the Roman Latins of the Mediterranean, the civilization of that time, who founded the republic, democracy in Athens; our blood has the black resistance fighters turned into slaves by you. In Colombia is the first free territory of America, before Washington, of all America, there I take refuge in its African songs. \n \nMy land is made up of goldsmiths who worked in the time of the Egyptian pharaohs and of the first artists in the world in Chiribiquete. \n \nYou will never rule us. The warrior who rode our lands, shouting freedom, who is called Bolívar, opposes us. \n \nOur people are somewhat fearful, somewhat timid, they are naive and kind, loving, but they will know how to win the Panama Canal, which you took from us with violence. Two hundred heroes from all of Latin America lie in Bocas del Toro, today's Panama, formerly Colombia, which you murdered. \n \nI raise a flag and as Gaitán said, even if it remains alone, it will continue to be raised with the Latin American dignity that is the dignity of America, which your great-grandfather did not know, and mine did, Mr. President, an immigrant in the USA, \n \nYour blockade does not scare me, because Colombia, besides being the country of beauty, is the heart of the world. I know that you love beauty as I do, do not disrespect it and you will give it your sweetness. \n \nFROM TODAY ON, COLOMBIA IS OPEN TO THE ENTIRE WORLD, WITH OPEN ARMS, WE ARE BUILDERS OF FREEDOM, LIFE AND HUMANITY. \n \nI am informed that you impose a 50% tariff on the fruits of our human labor to enter the United States, and I do the same. \n \nLet our people plant corn that was discovered in Colombia and feed the world \n \n1:15 PM · Jan 26, 2025 ·11.1M Views

Columbia is need to respond in kind .This spoiled convict will fall like Herod .Stand strong against today,s Hitler .

Every country that Trump threatens or in fact imposes tariffs against should immediately respond in kind. HIGH TARIFFS AGAINST THE USA!! Make it hurt, make the morons who voted for Trump feel it most in their wallets!

Columbia responds with 50% tariff on Cocaine.

Trump asked that we seal our borders and do something about fentanyl. How did Canadian politicians respond! Like chickens with their heads cut off, throwing around our idea of tariffs. Trump was clear. I have no idea why they had to take it to this level in Canada.

It’s a game Mexico plays USA has to respond we are the leaders of the free world and the media just reports not investigates on how they get across

Very sad these stories. I have a story as well of responding to an ad selling a car and being robbed by two Hispanic gang members.

So many responding here either did not watch the video or stick to their POV even when presented with facts.\nNext they deflect, distract or use whataboutism to fit their own wheelhouse.

These travellers / vacationers (not all) are a disgrace to our country, more so the so called students / those who come here and work. They are filthy, lack basic social culture & lack manners. We are all categorized accordingly . I keep my distance & don’t respond to them. Hope this elucidates the issue. Having an IIT degree ??

*India could make sure that the embassies and consulates have the resources to respond quickly to applicants, and to clearly explain the reasons for any rejections. THIS WILL MAKE THEM THINK TWICE*

I love your video. But can I ask you a question?\n Would you ever move to brampton? Please respond.

That thing about healthcare goes back decades - my Mom (Vancouver) and Dad (NW Washington state) met + married when they met at college in Seattle. Dad went to grad school in Frisco afterwards and I was conceived in the Bay area. I'm 69 now and Mom was sent home to Vancouver to bear me as the cost was much less in BC than California. She and her mother drove with baby me when I was about a month old. So what your respondent said about cost of childbirth isn't remotely new.

I appreciate your take. I believe Canada's key issue is that it is facing a cultural decay, which is not exclusive to Canada. Many countries in the west are challenged by similar things such as aging populations and unaffordability. \n\nIt works in a cycle: governments and corporations take turns screwing over the general population and most people cannot afford anything. Corporation does A then government does B; government does X then corporation does Y. On the surface, government is _trying_ to do a good thing, but it backfires quite often, leaving the average person feeling scorned. \n\nChief among these corrective measures was mass immigration, and because there was already a climate of indignation, the introduction of too-many-immigrants was a huge slap in the face. Instead of making sure Canadians were better taken care of, the government responded to the corporations--not the people. \n\nGDP numbers mean nothing to the average Canadian person if their quality of life is in decline. The only people still in favour of mass immigration are those who do not have to confront it on a day-to-day basis. Even Canadian-born (or even Canadian Citizens of 5+ years) minorities, think the immigration problem is too much.

Tell your viewers the truth. Trump called her out and she responded with “of course we’ll comply with your requests sir”. Get in line people. This includes fake news CNN

Its all a way one street for Maga . We will see how extreme Trump gets and how the world responds .

she’s responding in a ‘Chinese-way’

President Sheinbaum didn’t do press conferences exclusively to respond to to Trump, she, as his predecessor President López Obrador, do a daily press conference.

Make enemies on our borders thru tariffs on Mexico and Canada. They respond by turning to China and Russia both of whom will give those countries sweetheart deals and make them allies. Meanwhile our prices rise and only minimum wage jobs become available to American citizens. Now I see how Trump could bankrupt six casinos. His brains are stuck.

Mexican president has a conference press everyday. Not just to respond Yrump.

She is very wise the way she has responded which is true going the tariff way doesn’t work with everyone and peace and working in agreement will have better results for both countries

How to lower cost of good if tariffs after tariff (responding tariff La from other countries) will cause higher prices?

Looks like Trump's tariff threat actually worked on Mexico. Dems and respondents below don't understand the power of deterrence and the leverage of using the US economy. Masterful job by Trump in getting Mexico to curtail illegal immigration, drug use, and human trafficking. There will be no tariff on Mexico

Mexico should respond with a 50% tariff on ALL US junk. Daniel from Abroad.

His respond will be this “ half of our illegal aliens are Mexican citizens, so don’t tell me how to run a country ms. President of a shithole country”.. like a 15 yo

Worth it to me to save lives and make Mexico step up to control drugs from entering from their side of the border. If Mexican leadership acts, the tariff increase goes away. It's that simple. Mexico is already responding.

One tough lady responding to a Felon and rapist!!!

In 1930 American politicians decided to significantly increase tariffs \nand 25 other countries immediately responded by imposing significant tariffs\non American products and the trade war made the depression significantly worse.\n\nTrump's trade war won't likely lead to a depression but it will make things \nworse for almost everyone.\n\nExpect higher inflation, economic stagnation and also economic disruption \nas American companies can't suddenly and magically create new production \nto replace imports and can't do it as cheaply or they would already have been doing that\nand American exporters are going to face tariffs and sanctions imposed \non their products by other countries.\n\nThe extremely integrated car manufacturing industries in the United States, Canada and Mexico could be thrown into chaos.\nAn average car part crosses a border about 8 times during production.\nHow the heck do high tariffs deal with that standard car production situation?\n\nTrump would know all this if he thought about history or\nabout how the North American economy works or thought at all\nbut thinking is not something that appeals to Trump.\nInstead he just spouts out whatever random idea pops into his head \nand calls it policy.

Oh, Mexico will respond in kind??????. Let see Mexico. There is a reason why Chinese economic stop growing after Trump Tariffs which Biden kept.

Mexian cartels have the Mexian president. Before responding, she should stop refuge landings to Mexian airports, she does nothing.

She’s president of Mexico Trump can’t intimidate her because she’s a woman, she’s strong woman and she will respond to him in professional ways. Trump is bully and he doesn’t know how tariffs will affect America economy. He’s not good for economy and he lied about knowing everything about tariffs while he is not good.

Chynnah should retaliate by restricting the flow of pharmaceuticals to the United States. Let’s see how the “Tariff Man” responds. ?

What a huge difference between the president of Mexico and the illiterate of Qtrump, she responded wisely and coherently, not like a crazy person who talks nonsense without understanding absolutely anything.
