US is not doing anything for internal gun gangs. Lots of people die every year because of easy access of the guns.

lol to those seeing Trudeau speak for the first time and coming to the conclusion that because he’s easy on the eyes, and is articulate that he is somehow competent. Dude just resigned as leader of his party and has driven Canada into the ground.

Fu-c kem and everyone “standing with another country”. Gtfo easy.

I think any person Who makes efforts to find the Best for its country should be considered as a patriot. Defend a Nation ist not a easy issue but the Canadian are free to choose the Best. For them. Good look, God bless you all.

I live by the Canadian border. It is NOT easy to cross. Trump is lying and just trying to make himself look good even knowing tht Canada is willing to be a partner in combating illegal drugs. He wanted to get his court problems etc off his table. He had to get elected. And ELON helped that. Without Elon the shadow president he wouldn't have. Hell Elon had to pay people to vote for him.

Canada is in this mess. Cause of this pethic clown. This fake leaderless and his government. And Canadians are still waiting for their carbon tax dollars to be given to them. Also the borders are not safe they are easy to cross. Keep lies going.

I've had a boss like Trump and a boss like Trudeau. The first like Trump yelled, complained, and whined over the smallest problems. The team, including himself, were miserable all the time. The second like Trudeau made the hardest problems easy to manage. He led, was transparent, and prioritized solutions over blame. I'm currently working for the latter and it's been multiple years of success. No one from the first team stuck around to sink with the ship.

It should be reciprocal trade.\nYou tariff us 20% We tariff you\n20%. See, it’s easy to understand. Trudeau wants it lopsided to them.

All narcissists are easy to fool with flattery and putin knows that! Trump has never been smart, only bitter and evil and steppefbon whomever he jad to! Hiw voters are ignorant

It’s like listening to Mr. Rogers versus Charlie Manson. Easy to understand. \nIt’s amazing how far a criminal mind will rot and still be able to exist in plain sight. ?☠️

It doesn't make sense until you're prepared to face the fact that Trump is a wannabe dictator. He is basically at war with any nation that is a democracy and he cosies up to the dictators of the world. He bypasses Congress, ignores the courts, and attacks the free press. It's easy to see the plan once you realise he's just another dictator. Americans voted for this. Well done. I hope you're happy.

Why did it take Trump to make Canada do obviously easy enforcement on Fentanyl? Shameful.

I have never felt more proud to be a Canadian, it’s a good feeling, I was almost brought to tears earlier thinking about it. And it’s interesting to note that it is overriding the fear of the consequences of Donald’s actions. Here’s where I can’t help but think of you, our fellow North Americans. The good people of the USA, I hold you in my heart. For you don’t have that boost that comes from feeling proud of your country. I can’t say I’ve ever known what that is like. It seems it would leave you gutted, and lost. Can you even describe the feeling, the experience? It has to be one of those things that you can’t know until you experience it. The pride in my country is keeping me going. My heart is crushed thinking that you do not have that. But you need to do everything you can to keep it. It’s what the Donald and his cronies are counting on. Unfortunately, he does not care about you. He wants to crush you. He does not care about America and what it stands for. He only cares about himself. If you do not have the fight that comes from being proud of your country, you guys are gonna be easy pickings. Do everything you can to find pride in your country. We need you to fight. We need you at our side. We are with you. We will always be with you.

Speaking clearly, easy to understand. no pontificating no bloviating….

Canada did a nice announcement it was easy to follow and facts.

The guys on the way out it’s all talk, the new guy will make a deal. Very easy to be tough when you’ll be gone in days like CNN admitted. This is his you didn’t fire me I quit type speech. Trying to spin narrative with the last chance he has

Time to pay your fair share. The American taxpayers protect our entire continent with our Navy we should tax South America and the rest of North America and Greenland for protection. Look up the Navy numbers and look at how many boats we have. We are the strongest geographical Nation in this world. Because of the ocean surrounding us. Everyone knows that it would be damn near impossible to take us over but they're finding it far too easy to divide the American people. Find your nationalism.??????

trump is a big wimp...big baby...big toddler...look at the countries he's being a jerk too. easy targets...he doesn't have the stones to be a man and act like a man to the hard targets ie russia, etc...

You all are brainwashed… How easy we forget the forced vaccine mandates, the intrusion of personal bank accounts, suppression of real scientific research, liberty and free speech…should I go on?—And Yes Trump isn’t perfect, but I rather deal with a part-time egotistic than live under psychopaths who force binary dogmas and believe Men can have babies…

Trump don’t care about his people, what he wants is make the investors invest in USA in order to not charge tariffs like if it were easy to do and get back on 2000 year when the baby Bush triggered the massive investment in china and out of us soil; smart punk then. Labor wages are more higher than in china or mexico or any other country.

Buy American...it's easy

Canada has easy fix, do what Trump ask and stop fentanyl and illegal aliens=no more tariffs. Mexico a little more complex, in addition to the above issues add in factories being built and in mexican for sub human labor costs and making top profits in America.

Too bad Trudeau can’t come to America and be our president. Funny how easy it is to believe every word that he speaks. Not true for any American president. Except in the movies. Americans got what they voted for. Idiots

Nice try Trudeau, Canada fcked up now, not US. you kept worrying about the US lol. easy thing, the company will move from Canada to US, simple as is!

So many easy targets to choose, stop or cancel business with the following: Netflix, Disney Channel, Amazon, Costco, Walmart, Starbucks, Home Depot, TJ Max, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Burger King. Oh yeah, switch from YouTube to TikTok.

Sad day for America? Did you guys forget the sithole ur PM put you in? So easy to distract it's hilarious

Many people seem shocked that the US is acting this way towards its “closest ally.” Let’s not forget that in the days and weeks following 9/11, when a town like Gander, Newfoundland took in thousands of Americans when airplanes were grounded, the US was initially blaming Canada for its lax border and immigration laws in allowing terrorists into the US. They even suggested a number of the Al-Qaeda terrorists in those airplanes had entered from Canada! ? We seem to be an easy target for our ‘close’ friends sought of the border.

and he would not dare say it to Trumps face its easy to hide and run your mouth try to grow a pair then say it to his face lol

51 state take it easy Trump hussein this is not Kuwait

No winners in a trade war? Guess it’s easy to say when the trade leans in your favor and it’s under attack to equal it out. Must not understand how reciprocal tariffs work. You tax us we tax you. We’re looking for fair trade. Your retaliation is welcoming the escalation of a trade war.

He is making it too easy for the total Dominance of BRICS

I'm a South African. you can't start a war with every country. at the end of the day we all need each other to survive. Donald started with South Africa and i must tell you guy's... we doing just fine i promise you. this won't be easy but trust me eventually things will be way much better than before.

In America, no politician is allowed to have a vision that will benefit the people and the nation. The essence of America is to be consumed by corporate America until money chooses to leave the country when America runs out of incentives to keep it on its soil. As long as the purpose of America is to keep the dollar as a world currency and make it easy for business to operate on its soil, America politicians cannot make an acceptable proposition to the Americans left behind. America is a money making machine for corporate America and an indebtedness machine for the nation and its citizens. This love affair with money will sooner or later break the country. It is taboo to speak about the source of America's problems.

Trumps own words, “Vote for me, you will never have to vote again!” \nThis one is showing up on several pages. Make up your own mind. \nThere is something rancid in America, a slow, creeping rot that smells like cold McDonald’s fries, aerosol hairspray, and the unmistakable musk of a country too sedated to recognize its own hostage situation. For years, the idea that Donald Trump was compromised by Russia was dismissed as paranoid fantasy—just another wild-eyed conspiracy theory, another overblown headline in the endless saga of American political dysfunction. \nBut now, two former Soviet intelligence officers—Alnur Mussayev and Yuri Shvets—are saying it outright: Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987, groomed as an asset, and remains under Russian control to this day. \nAnd the worst part? He’s already back in the White House. \nThat’s right, America. You did it. You walked face-first into the banana peel of history, slipped, and fell straight into the arms of Vladimir Putin. Trump was kicked out in 2020, spent four years plotting his comeback, and now he’s returned, like a bloated, orange cockroach that just won’t die. The Kremlin’s favorite stooge is running the country again, and this time, he knows exactly how to stay in power. \nIf you think this is just another round of the Trump Show, you’re not paying attention. This isn’t politics anymore. This is treason. This is foreign subversion. This is a God forsaken coup in slow motion. \nLet’s break it down, nice and simple. \nAlnur Mussayev isn’t some Twitter conspiracy theorist with a tinfoil hat and a podcast. He’s the former head of Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, which means he knows exactly how Russian intelligence works—because he was part of the system. And what he’s saying should make every American’s blood run cold. \nAccording to Mussayev, Trump was identified, recruited, and compromised by the KGB in 1987 during his first trip to Moscow. They saw him for what he was: a narcissistic, greedy, attention-starved buffoon who could be easily manipulated. The KGB flattered him, promised him business deals, and planted the seeds of political ambition in his empty little head. And from that moment on, he was their man. \nBut Mussayev isn’t alone. Former KGB major Yuri Shvets said the exact same thing in 2021: Trump was cultivated by Soviet intelligence because he was an easy mark—too stupid to realize he was being played, too egotistical to care. They saw him as a useful idiot—a man who could one day be nudged into power, a walking, talking Trojan Horse for Russian interests. \nAnd now? The plan has worked. Trump spent four years in office weakening America from within, got booted out, and now he’s back for round two. \nIf you had told the American public in 1962 that a Soviet-backed asset would one day sit in the White House, they would have burned Washington to the ground before letting it happen. But today? Nobody seems to care. \nThe media treats this like just another wacky subplot in the never-ending Trump reality show. Congress is too busy fighting over meaningless culture war nonsense to do anything about it. And the American public? Exhausted. Numb. Checked out. Years of scandals—Russia collusion, Ukraine blackmail, classified documents, tax fraud, sexual assault, an attempted coup—have fried the country’s brain like an overcooked steak at Mar-a-Lago. \nTrump has done the impossible. He has committed so many crimes, so openly, so brazenly, that none of them matter anymore. \nAnd now, with Mussayev’s revelation that Trump is an active foreign asset, we have finally reached the point where the biggest political scandal in American history is met with a collective shrug. \nThis is how democracy dies—not with a bang, but with a goddamn eye-roll. \nThis is the part where the skeptics start clutching their pearls. “Oh, come on,” they say. “If Trump were really a Russian asset, wouldn’t there be more proof?” \nTo which I say: Are you blind, or just willfully stupid? \nLet’s go through the evidence, shall we? \nTrump spent his entire first term doing exactly what Russia wanted. He attacked NATO, calling it “obsolete” and threatening to pull the U.S. out. He tried to blackmail Ukraine into manufacturing dirt on Joe Biden, because weakening Ukraine helps one man and one man only: Vladimir Putin. He pulled U.S. troops out of Syria, handing power over to Russian forces. He picked fights with Canada and Europe while cozying up to dictators. \nEven now, in his second term, he is more openly pro-Putin than ever. He has made it clear that he will not protect NATO allies from Russian aggression. He is actively dismantling America’s alliances, just as Russia planned. And while Americans scream at each other over whether Target should sell rainbow t-shirts, Trump is quietly selling the country to the Kremlin. \nAt some point, you have to stop calling it a coincidence and start calling it what it is: treason. \nThe United States is running out of time. If Trump serves out this term without being removed, America as a functioning democracy is finished. \nThe media needs to wake up. Enough with the “Trump fatigue” excuse. This is not just another scandal—this is the single greatest infiltration of American power in history. Journalists need to dig into Mussayev’s claims, demand declassification of intelligence files, and treat this like the national emergency that it is. \nCongress needs to subpoena Mussayev immediately. His testimony must be public, and every document he has should be reviewed. If there is proof that Trump has been compromised since the 1980s, the American people need to know. \nThe Justice Department needs to stop pretending that Trump is just another politician. If there is evidence that the sitting president of the United States is working in Russia’s interests, he must be removed from office and prosecuted for espionage. \nAnd the American public? You have one last chance. This is not about Republican vs. Democrat. This is not about taxes, gas prices, or whatever nonsense outrage is dominating the news today. This is about whether the United States remains a sovereign nation, or if we spend the rest of the century as a Russian client state with a golf course. \nThe sheer volume of Trump's corruption, the blatant nature of his crimes, the mountain of evidence that should have ended his political career a hundred times over—none of it mattered. He survived it all, not because he was innocent, but because he drowned the country in so much scandal that nothing stuck. \nBut this time, it’s different. If Mussayev and Shvets are right, this isn’t just another chapter in the endless Trump circus. This is the culmination of a decades-long Russian intelligence operation to install an asset in the White House. \nThere is no coming back from this. If America lets Trump serve out this term without removing him, then the United States as a democratic republic is finished. The country won’t collapse overnight. There won’t be tanks in the streets. Instead, the destruction of democracy will happen in slow motion—buried under lawsuits, propaganda, and corruption so blatant that people stop caring. \nIf America lets this happen—if Trump is allowed to complete his mission—then Putin wins. The West crumbles. And the people who could have stopped it will look back, years from now, and wonder how they let it happen. \nGood night, and good luck. Because if people don’t wake up, America is going to sleepwalk straight into its own funeral.

Powerful. Simple. Easy to understand.

Is it possible that this is all about access to critical minerals - which Canada and Ukraine hav in abundance. America has form in creating a pretence to go to war to protect access to cheap oil. But in the past these wars were against arab nations and so the West found it easy to 'other' and accept the need for war. Now America under Trump is hoping to secure critical minerals (modern day oil) - but because they are allies he cant start an outright war. So hes doing it through trade. This is old form for America. When looked through this lense is not so difficult to understand. The big question is will the west allow him to bully western allies - democracies to be bullied into submission?

Justin are you forgetting that you are very close to America it would be very easy for you to become new North America

As an American, did that weasel Trudeau just threaten us?! Um, he better backstep while he still has time. Canada has NO product that we Americans cannot replace with an American made one in a matter of months. Fertilizer is an easy one, Our farmers just need to go back to using natural animal/yuman waste which is ecactly what used to be done. It even saves farmers billions $ because they create a use for waste they now pay to have to process for removal. Lumber and products are also an easy fix. We Americans have millions of acres of timber that actually NEEDS regular harvest to reduce the forest fires that plague us yearly. The list goes on, and not a single item cannot be MADE IN AMERICA that we currently get from Canada.

how come its very easy to get nickked cars over the border that could be loaded with drugs

When you isolate the United States , like Trump is doing, you make us a easy target.

Dear dear people of Canada if any of you read any of these comments I want you to know that there are A LOT of us who are ABSOLUTELY NOT happy, about anything that this man\n who has been elected president, is doing. There are some of us who had definitely considered asking Canada for a dual citizenship. But this, I discovered is not an easy process ? we are so sad and sorry that a portion of our citizens were able to vote this man back into the White House. All we can say is, Dear Lord, please rescue us from this horrible situation ???

It is easy to get things over your border . You say only so much have been found . A lot is getting through.

American Gorverment thinks Canada is easy to bully, even if it is easy to bully, so you are not going to bully your closest friends and long-term allies. Do you know how much our regular people go shopping and spend money in the US each day ?

Americans are not stupid as we know going against the establishment wasn't going to be easy. We stand with Trump as he's cleaning up the mess democrats put us in.

Wait, Trudeau is still around? Btw, Not a trade war (which Canada would get destroyed in), but more of a border war. Simply police our mutual border better and make our trade fair— that easy!

Trudeau trying to salvage his embarassment of a political career is laughable. Easy to talk tough when he's going to be out in a matter of days and Poilierve will need to clean up the poor job he did.

Trump is SO easily manipulated by Putin and others. All you have to do is tell him he's the victim and that he's very smart and he'll do anything you tell him.\nHis narcissism, greed and emotional retardation are destroying the USA. The number of Americans too idiotic to see it is frightening.\n\nPutin must be pissing his pants laughing at how easy it's all been.

Trumps playbook is easy to read. He puts down the economy with tariffs, buys millions of stocks when they are cheap and then he stops the tariffs saying Mexico and Canada have successfully stopped fentanyl. Economy goes back up and he just got richer on all of your backs.

I am an American, please stand together. Our country is not and I am sure it shows. We here in the states need to gain control of our Rogue Government and it will not be easy. Many of our citizens have been removed from the voting roles and many politicians have been bribed or threaten into submission. We have a hard road ahead to gain back our country ... please remember, most Americans understand and would not choose to harm any of our friends and neighbors.

Just lower your tariffs on all products coming from America, we have reciprocal tariffs and will lower ours. This is nonsense from Trudeau, costing everyone money to show an example. It’s so easy to solve but he just wants trump to fail
