We dont trust you shitbag, Canada already ousted you! The only thing this will do to anerica is make a bunch more american made millionaires. We will replace your Canadian bullshit with American made real shit. By Canada, u need us, we dont need you!

i am Canadian.....\n\ni am embarrassed by trump and feel for my American brothers..... i want to know what the end game is for trump - if he feels he gonna bully Canada or other nations he has grossly underestimated those that have supported the US through thick and thin...\n\nif his end game is under cutting NATO - he should review history and realize that the only country that ever requested helps officially under NATO was the US which we in Canada offered no questions asked...\n\nall i say to my Amercian brothers, his term is only 4yrs - we will welcome you back into the fold when this nonsense with Trump is over... I just hope that my politicians dont cause any nonsense and toe the line in being professional...

Hah! What a tool. Canadians dont trust this douche... hes the one that messed up your country

Dont worry Canadians, give Trump 1 or 2 Weeks and EU is this war too. And this will hurt the orange guy more than he can take. BTW we would take your energy <3 We dont need that dumb country.

Who pays for the retaliatory tariffs? Is it Canadians? Who pays for Trump's tariffs ? Is it Americans? Kinda seems like he's saying if you dont stop hurting your citizens, I'll start hurting my citizens too.

You mention that Americans are 30% more expensive than Canadians but you dont mention that the US is far more unequal with a Gini coefficient of 0.41 vs 0.35 in Canada. Now there is also a known issue with using GDP data to calculate productivity and that is that in sme countries the labor of GDP is much lower than in others. You then end up with Irish productivity being the second highest in the world only because most large US corporations operating in the EU register there to pay lower taxes but most of that revenue is just on paper for Ireland. or with Guyana whose oil and mining revenue makes it productivity equal to that of the US. Maybe that is the case, but is it? and if so why is the average wage in Guyana so much lower? so choosing only one specific stat can make any point of view seem true. you have to look at the bigger picture.\nnow the issue is Canada has been getting more unequal but it is still much better than the US. so what it means is that the higher worker productivity in the US benefits corporations and billionaires far more than it benefits the average American. now if we compare cost of living say between NYC and Toronto:\nCost of Living in Toronto is 37.5% lower than in New York, NY (without rent) \nCost of Living Including Rent in Toronto is 47.1% lower than in New York, NY \nRent Prices in Toronto are 59.2% lower than in New York, NY \nRestaurant Prices in Toronto are 34.5% lower than in New York, NY \nGroceries Prices in Toronto are 33.0% lower than in New York, NY \nLocal Purchasing Power in Toronto is 7.2% higher than in New York, NY \nand this is similar when comparing almost all large Canadian cities with a comparable US one. And whilst housing and NIMBYIsm is real issue you have very similar issues in the US which also has almost no mix zoning. But throw in safety nets and go ask Canadians if they want to change for the US system. I doubt most will. Sure some want things to change but some assuming everyone wants an ultra capitalistic society. most are ok with less growth ut better balanced growth (the exact opposite of the boom and bust US model)

43% of GenZ want to become the 51st state. A significantly higher figure want to move to the US.\nLets be clear here, the loyalty is only to the Canadian people right now. There is absolutely ZERO loyalty over this colonial puppet state that only became a thing in the 1980's, and has utterly failed its population for the past DECADE.\nThey (quite litterally I may add) would rather see us OD on the streets than have a 3% reduction in housing. \nEvery 25 year old I know, are living with their parents despite having 6 figure jobs.\n\nWe Canadians beat our chest and act hard when the US says this, but we turn a blind eye to Chinese/Indian/Iranian foreign influence and extrajudicial killings. The fact our own people are threatened and killed by foreign governments is insane. But the DOUBLE STANDARD we have in being everybodys doormat while rejecting integration with the US, is insane. \n\nWe litterally have avoided MULTIPLE recessions because the US has bailed us out time and time again. notably in 2021. Were in the G7 only because of the US.\nOur GDP also litterally collapsed in 2015, and were only drudging on by because the US helped us along. They dont want to do that anymore.\n\nCanada is dead, and our economy is dead. I have no loyalty to a government that wants me either dead or a slave to make money for BOOMERS. \nI would be a BOOTLICKER if I was to support the Canadian government.

As a Canadian, I am more afraid of the people than their healthcare system. And I am chronically ill and would be homeless in America. You seem pretty cool, but living in a place where children have to train for school shootings. I heard they cant even wear light up shoes for their own saftey. Just their hate of immigrants and people in general. Its not the first time that I have heard an American say they want to shoot down all the aliens. Also, wtf! We know you live in America. You dont need to have a flag every 2 meters. ????? even on your clothes. We get it! You're American! I feel like you guys get super offended by everything.

I just heard cannadians are more united than ever because of trump and are more likely to vote the same liberal party that has been ruling the country for past 10yrs .I dont how much of it is true but canadians should vote for people that will take care of its citizens.

If you are moving to the States and you are trying to find the best place to live, you are playing Russian Roulette with your future. We as Canadians are mostly unfamiliar with which areas are bad. We dont think about things being so different until you live there. I don't think l could send my kids to school there either.

Canada needs more strict visa requirements. The. Fact you can just come on visitor visa or study visa and stay most international students don’t even show up for school. Canada needs to stop giving out visas like it’s Halloween Candy. 500,000 international students went missing they came into Canada were supposed to go back after there end date and went missing . The system is broken . Many get a visa to study or get a tourist visa and DONT LEAVE. They are mostly staying with relatives that are Canadian. And they work in cash . This is what’s really happening. Many bring falls work experience and fake work papers from back home

If you don’t want to become a Canadian then dont move here! Full stop

Remove all of them illegals and as a next step remove those immigrant Khalistanis who are canadian citizens involved in Crime, drug trafficking, Killings or are wanted by Interpol /India. Normal canadians are too dumb to distinguish between illegal immigrants and Khalistani's. Pack off all of them and your canada will be a better place for you guys. Dont ever bother to hire Indians in future or they will eat up your jobs. Pakistani Muslims are the best suited for Canada.

canadian and mexico makes lot of money frm indians and both this country know they have no reason to visit or study some how they aquire fake documents and get visas and for canada u can just do it online that easy next step walk in usa and above all canada makes a lot of money by selling its visa and mexic makes lot of money by harboruing miillions they dont care about usa they hate usa

Our government has flooded us in Canada, true Canadians dont want even one, and dispise the fact our government lets them leech into the United States aswell.

as a canadian - you dont get to fly here without a passport. Meaning they either are bigger criminals than the news gives credit and have fake passports - or they came through america to get here from mexico and South america. Take them back because theyre only here because of america letting them get here.

We literally have 5 million Indians in Ontario alone looking to get into the USA to live and work. They came here to get PR so they dont have to wait 20 years in india to get a work visa. With Canadian PR can get into the states in under 5 years. You guys are in deep trouble, not a single leader in Canada LIBS, CONS, NDP want to decrease immigration from India. There is very little to no checks to whos coming it. Trump and Musk not helping the situation with keeping the visa programs going. Should have Americans working American jobs, no one else.

60% less? Im Canadian and i dont believe it. We have a long way to go and trudeau does Not care. You better get up here and fn take over the job our politucians wont do.

This is why I dont want to hear shit from whining leftist Canadians about tariffs. We had 9/11 in this country- CLOSE that fcking border “friends” or suffer the just consequences. For the first time in generations a traitor isnt running our country.

As a Canadaian who wants to live in the USA, this drives me nuts. We need to be stopping every vehicle headed south as well as those heading north. If we Canadians dont take this seriously ,we are going to regret the outcome.

Can you blame these crossing? Canada sucks! No jobs, freezing cold, high tax, no doctors, us Canadian dont even want to live here anymore!

dont forget the ny govenor was busing illegals to the canadian border at roxham road so its not only canada,it goes both ways,,,lets get that straight americans

Canadian liberal government uses Blackhawks to help the illegal into our country, they dont stop or turn anyone back! we need TRUMP to build a wall! for Canadians because our government is filled with socialists

11:47 canadian have borh system. Free and slow or you go to private and you pay but service is fast. So at least everybody have acces to health care. And if you whant faster service you have the option to have private service if you pay. Also if you have major problem even if it free you will pass really really fast. So if you are gona die exemple you dont pay anything plus the pass you right away without any wait even if it free. At the entrance you explain your problem and they classify your problem has urgent or not. If someone in worst shape come after you even if you arrive before they pass you before you. That mean if many urgent person person arrive after you that day and you came just for a cold... then for sure you will wait long. Comon sens because when it free sometimes people abuse and go see the doctor for anything all the time

I'm born canadian indian we dont want people using our system go back to india we only need smart educated people not these people ?

We have way too many here it's creating resentment. It'd be like living in India but literally every place you went all u see is white ppl speaking English and not respecting Indians culture. After years of seeing your quality of life and services decline you'd get upset too. If u had kids that can't even find a summer job because they're all taken by foreigners or can't find an apartment to live in then that's where problems start. Imagine getting hurt but your wait to see a doctor is 12 hours because 100 east Indians are there at the ER slowing things down because they can't even speak our language. Poor Canadians are now fighting with Indians at food banks it's gotten so bad. We just have too many, if you're reading this in Indian please dont come to Canada

They came in last 3 years around a Million , how come deporting 7k its a joke . They come here and making noise on the Canadian Govt , this kind issues has to be taken serious issue and deport those individual right away we dont need this kind of students in Canada and they all misusing the systems, I saw lot of guys standing in food banks which is only for locals , these guys arguing why we cannot get if they dont know the procedure how to live in Canada and what are the rights they have if they dont know , better live the Canada we dont need you guys who will become burden on Canadian Govt ............................

Lets keep i real. The desire that most immigrants have is homeostasis which is the familiar. All humans do this. Individually indians are usually smart and decent people. But in groups ( and this doesnt just include indians) you get this group thinking that is prejudice against anyone who isnt one of their own. Im fairly certain its a good demonstration of what a different culture would experience in their own country. This is especially noticeable in markem with the Chinese population. \n\nLet me say this loud and clear. We didnt let you come here so you could start your own countries inside of our country. And beleive me, your gunna get rocked and put in your place if you guys keep coming here and being disrespectful. That goes for the any culture who is putting themselves first at the expense of other Canadians, and im not talking about white canadians im talking about all Canadians from anywhere. We re all equal and you will not be allowed to position your selves in a way that gives you immunity to these values. \n\nIm getting really tired of going into business like tim hortons and knowing what the nationality of the owner is by just looking around at the staff who work in fhe business. We let you have a seat at our table to break bread with us in a mutually benifital relationship. But what is pretty evident is that a lot of these people dont like us and if it was up to them we wouldnt exist. They fail to behave in a way that acknowledges the truth. That the family whos heritage is of this land, built this house that your living in. With our low corruption goverments , our clean drinking water, our free health care and education system, with our opportunities that make it possible through merit and hard work that it doesnt matter what family or where you were born. These are attractive features of canada that play a role in why people want to come here. And leave where they were. Its it logical to think that you have more to learn about us then we do of you? Not being on some selfish punk shit is canadas greatest strength. Its that same inclusives mentality that keep the government corruption very small which empowers the citizens to make them successful and able to contribute more back into this system. The very nature of hoarding resources for ones family, same culture, etc are the same oppressive situations many of these people left their countries to seek better opportunities. But once given those opportunities and a chance to decide for themselves, a lot of these people use their liberties to create exclusion and hostility toward out groups. The indians do this in a very overt in your face way, the chinese are more polite about it but both have this way of looking out for their own and not being concerned with anyone else. As far as im conerned you should all be split up and dispersered to live in different provinces and cites. I know this isnt realitic but it would save them from what a lot of them are gunna end up be exposed to which is experiences with native born Canadians who are going to very rudly show you what happens when you disrespectf someone in their own home. \n\nThe party is over. You people need to start being Canadian and care about Canadians like you care about your own culture or get the fuck out!

I dont think Canadians understand that 3 of our states have bigger economies alone than Canada does. This will end very bad for Canada the longer it goes. Hopefully we, and the new incoming Canadian administration, can get it figured out because i dint want to see ordinary Canadians suffer due to the incompetence of their outgoing liberal PM.

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.

sorry canadian but you dont have any alternatives it will affect you more than americans

Well, cant stand justin. But... \n\nCanadian's have been hurting bad for a few years now. What's a few more. \n\nI say screw tariffs. Just shut it all off. Power, oil, movie production, soft lumber, maple syrup, ALL natural resources. \n\nJust dont sell it to them at all.\n\n\nBuild up our own infrastructure and become the global monster we should be.\n\nProudly Canadian!

I dont like Trudeau but this is the Golden Opputuniry for Trudeau to Bounce BACK as a STRONG leader and if manages to pull up CANADA and humble TRUMP then he will become a HERO but looking at the Trudeau Past Records dealing with BIG Countries, it seems TRUMP will swallow him without WATER. All the BEST CANADA and Canadians

I am so sorry I think most of Americans have the greatest respect for canada I make 850 a month on SSI I will have to go hungry but I dont blame the great people of Canada Canadians stand your ground our government has turn their backs on us they purged our votes 3.5 million. In 2 yrs. We will take our country back We love you and stand with you

Thanks to Trudeau \nPretty sad \nIam canadian born & i dont know what country this is \nTry apply for a job at lets said walmart i wouldnt get it cause iam to white not Indian

Immigrants take all the jobs that Canadians dont want to do.

They dont want to be canadian the hate canadians

You guys gate kept the jobs from Canadians, rejecting our applications and pay us unliveable wage, then cry that you dont have enough workers, only to go get foreign workers to replace us.Then cry about crime rates and the housing market. Canadians want to work!!, we have been working for many winters now!!, but you guys keep preventing us from working because you want cheap labour. cheap labour comes with a lot more economic issues than hiring citizens. Our concerns were ignored and we were called lazy...to the point where someone like DONALD TRUMP is laughing at us and calling us a state. lining your pockets wasn't enough, now our integrity as a country is being questioned. If Trump made us a state, I would NOT be surprised.

That’s the problem,even with health insurance u said around 200 ,that’s crazy,some plans don’t cover what u need either,im Canadian,thank god i dont worry about getting sick,nothing comes out of my pocket,dont get a bill,keep my house,its crazy down there

Its simple. Indians are disrespectful, get into positions where they can hire and only hire there own. They hate western people but will be nice to your face. They are a virus on western civilization and i want nothing to do with it. They take all the entry level jobs so many canadians need and only give it to other indians. When i go to tim hortons and see that all the white peope some how dont work there now more and have been replaced by indians i will no longer support that tim hortons. This invasion needs to be stopped.

Please no more Immigrants from India ( especially from punjab and the hijab wearing arab world.). All of them dont know how to immerse and adjust to the Canadian way of life. Presently, even the streets of Bombay are looking more beautiful.

Indians have changed the lifestyle on the ground in canada. They feel relaxed and as if canada their country. They speak urdu everywhere and just help each other and they bought half of canada. Why we dont bring muslims they are way better and they adapt to canada. Indians will never adapt and have changed the canadian culture thats why we are running. They just work and talk about money no life and have made rest of population depressed with their smell and attitude. Get them out now. Get arabs and latinos and free palestine.

Immigration has to stop period, Canada is flooded with temporary foreign workers, Foreign students , new Canadians we do not need these people .there are thousands of born and raised Canadians that can fill these jobs , and in places like Newfoundland it was announced a month ago that they are getting 900 workers to fill health care positions, construction jobs etc it's absolutely BS it's an excuse to ease and help Britain with there immigration problem there are plenty of hard working Newfoundlanders to fill those jobs but in the meantime there are 600 nursing vacancies across Newfoundland and the government hesitated while born and raised Newfoundlanders going to nursing school in Newfoundland and leaving the province for work SHAME ON THE NEWFOUNDLAND GOVERNMENT AND THE IDIOT Liberal Woke Premiere Andrew Furey we don't need these foreign workers and we don't need temporary foreign workers, migrants we need to take a stand and stop this destroying of our country!!\nAnd with immigration why cant they bring people who need work also from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Australia, Scandinavian countries and that are Christian who can help build again strong Christian Communities, Families mux religion's dobt mix especially Muslims and East Indians it's proven over and over you cant bring these migrants over here and they dont respect our culture and heritage THIS IS OUR COUNTRY Islamists they dont shut up and respect our country and our culture, we dont need them and the stste if this country is because these immigrants surpress the economy, jobs , housing , pricing of food , Canada and USA have to take a stand !

Hoping canada will focus on us TFW who were working skilled as butcher to become PR much faster in process,our job here in canada is fielding the need for manpower in this kind of work canadians dont want to work for

oh yeah canada...where you can just walk over and the canadian authorities dont do a thing

Indians gotta go \nout out out dont come back ever\nas a born canadian indian no offence u have ruind the rep in and out disrespected the genereration of large number of great strong motivated Indians that came b4 you fools and they embrased being canadian... adapting to the freedom and culture .... unlike u bad batch of apples that over saturated all ends ...thanks 4 nothing finnaly to many of u ...i can say goodby f offf

You are absolutely right. Some of the recent Indian imports to Canada and US are totally unsuitable to reside out of India. Their behavior in public, lacking civic sense, lacking sense of hygiene and lacking politeness. I have lived in the States for 50 years. I have never experienced racism ever. I dont blame Canadians or Americans for being fed up with Indians. Unfortunately some of the new arrivals from India never got the opportunity to learn the etiquettes that the Westerners are accustomed to. They don't care and don't even want to learn. The saying 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do' is completely foreign to them.

If it's true,..\notherwise Canada has to pay a heavy price. Everything is under Indian control. Our canadian that has hired temp Indian Hr Recruiters they and Indian Managers, along with Indian agents, are involved in money laundering by chargjng a commission from New comer Indians,they hire and had hired only Indians .The unemployment rate within Canada is high. Crime.rate.committed by Indians is growing day by day at an unbelievable rate.\n By paying commission, only Indians are working all over Canada when there is a job scarcity. Now, their families are arriving. In some banks, Tim Hortons, it is Canada,but unbelievable 7 employees will be Indian newcomers, and 1 would be either Canadian philippines,chinese,black, or white. NewcomerIndians think they can get away with their corrupt mindset they will also go through a lot of suffering, and they dont know yet because this is Canada,not INDIA .

These Punjabi/Desi workers are Less than Mediocre, Unprofessionals, Pathetic, Have zero work ethics, speak Bad english and therefore have dismal communication skills, are lazy,shy away from working hard, drag their feet at work, unwilling to learn n improve, are always ready n willing to Argue and pick a fight specially Punjabi Pendus. Not Worth hiring. Are a drain on Resources and are Unwilling to mold according to Canadian Standards and Values. \n\nThey dont deserve these opportunities \n\nI am an Indian who was a worker with many Canadian White employers,Italian Canadians,British Canadians etcetera...and Now I am an employer myself, a business owner.\n\nI stopped hiring Punjabis/Desis/Pendus/Gujjus\n\nBlacks,Mexicans,Hispanics are much better and hard working than these Desi Pendus

He is correct trudeo actually welcome and let them in.\nHe dont care about canadians.
