American here that you Prime Minister Trudeau for being a true leader of our amazing neighbors to the north. Putin owns trdumps and he is a traitor to Americans and her allies I stand with Ukraine ?? Mexico ?? Canada ?? United Kingdom and all of our allies. I DO NO STAND WITH RUSSIA

True Americans stand with Canada! ??

Trump is shameful his dosen't even care about the American people here. It seems like his doing this for Putin l don't know if it true. His acts like Immature bully, but that doesn't make him a strong leader weak instead.

True Americans stand with our allies who fought with us not Russia I wish Regan is still alive to see this

Americans don't want this, donald trump and every single person working for HIM do not agree with this and are truly ashamed of our current fake government. trump wants to de the dictator of America. That will never happen. My heart is broken for what they are doing and we will correct this. Even the people who voted for him are now figuring out that he said everything they wanted to here to get their vote was a lie and would never fulfill his empty promices(go figure). We true American patriots are truly sorry. Canada is our neighbors and friends.

✅many young Americans have died for drugs that came true Canada,\n❌you’re not our friend ❌friend don’t do that shit ❌❌❌❌

A true American would stand with Trump

With or without tariffs, American goods will never have a place here in Canada anymore. You have shown your true face and will never have a place in a Canadian household

Dear Canada. Please build a Wall. The US should be treated like the 3rd World Country leadership is acting like. Sincerely a True Patriotic American.

Trump wants a weak America to be easy taken by Russia for his Russian friend! Many Americans are stupid they won't know whats going on! A lack of education in America! True!

TRUMP launched this trade war. NOT the American people. But we, true and patriotic Americans, who denounce Trump need our allies to stand firm against Trump - even if it hurts us. The only way for us to be able to take Trump down is to convince his supporters that he is wrong and that his actions are destroying America.

well done mr Trudeau!!! the true North American spirit!!!

True Americans stand with all people who are fair, honest and DEMOCRATIC in their thinking...that includes the people of Canada and Mexico. I'm not altogether certain about the Chinese but we'll see if or how this impacts them and the reaction from there. That BUM knows precisely who those tariffs will benefit and it's not the people who work so hard in order to live their lives. I'm not crazy about Free Trade either but it is what it is.... This is retaliation...pure and simple. Anyone who crosses him will live to regret it...he'll make certain of it. He must be stopped and stopped NOW!

I am an American who envies Canadians, Ukrainians and other Europeans for having true leadership. ?

This is a dark day for Americans. True Patriotic Americans stand with Canada.

Elbows up!!! From a true American.

The Prime Minister of Canada of Justin Trudeau Trudeau is a true leader that Trump should pattern INSTEAD of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. \nAs an American in the USA, I stand by Canada and Mexico and will support you both $$$ and travel to your beloved countries!!!

Canadian here, thank you for the support in these comments. Canada will remain the true north strong and free! Time to remind the Americans how Canadian deal with fascists. As we did on DDAY when Canadian forces were the first ones around the Nazi Flank, a similar evil arises and Canada will not relent.

True Americans stand with the Canadian people.

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)

None of them look like asylum seekers to me. They’re dressed fairly well. What they are trying to do is jump ahead of the rest of the world, who are patiently waiting in line, for the chance to live the American Dream. I worked with true asylum seekers, over a decade ago, and they looked poor and tattered. No phones, had to go to Catholic Charities for jackets, etc. Thank God Trump put an end to this invasion.

Unreal what Joe Bidumb did the Demorats are the true enemy within look at the cities they run assisting and abbeding illegals as Bidumb puts illegals first & Americans last throw him in jail who caused all this devastation Bidumb is the true Trojan horse within our country.

I think biden and all in his cabinet should be held responsible for all the crimes any migrants have committed. \nThere are no rights these people should have or been giving, or be given even now !especially should not have the right to bare arms.\nThere has been mass racketeering, and which all flow into the treasonous acts against, the people of this country, the USA- the real true Americans !?

See the difference between American ( Foreigners ) or Indians if they came us to our country we care them like family. See their true colours

I'd heard on our Canada wide - USA boycott sub - that you'd gone to the dark side man & had to check it out for myself. Sure as shit it's true. Sad dude. Lies & depictions of Canadians as somehow being a terrorist country all of a sudden is gonna get innocent people killed cuz they'll believe you and then they'll head up here to try to pretend-defend the USA in their Amazon tact gear & it's your fault 100% when they get put down...... Insane turn of events seeing as you have an asian for a wife and a couple of kids who are about to lose their *american citizenship* regardless of being born in the USA. Wrong side of history my friend & a huge disservice to your own kids. Shameful & pathetic. Man up and put ethics over your pocketbook *CASH* Jordan.

? first of all get it right mayor Adams is a criminal and he embezzled a lot of money from New York I grew up in the Upper East Side in New York okay and I used to like him until he was caught and and plenty of proof it's not about him doing anything about the migrants it's the fact that he changed his tune all the sudden when he's caught and Trump is willing to drop the cases as long as he goes with the flow and does with Trump says but if he doesn't he's legally allowed to bring the case back up that's why they have the case in court and the Seven judges resign because they refuse to drop a case a new was being dropped for political reasons not because he wasn't guilty and the fact that Trump had in writing that he could bring the charges back up there's only one thing that can mean if he doesn't go with the flow and be a good little soldier and doesn't do exactly what the orange buffoon tells them they can bring the charges back up that's never been done and is highly suspect that's called blackmail!\n\nBy the way a Democrats don't disagree with deportation and not letting illegal violent criminals into the country but we do disagree with separating women children and babies from their mothers and fathers and we do disagree with just deporting people that are brown black and Muslim many of them that aren't even violent now you can't tell me that it's the most racist deportation ever you name any Canadian any Australian or european that's being deported that's here illegally there's plenty of them I have plenty of friends that know people they work with that are Australian and Canadian and European that are illegally you don't see them getting deported I wonder why they're all white that's why!\n\nTrump wants to say he's only deporting violent criminal gang members more than half of the plane that he deported to a couple of different countries had plenty of people that weren't criminals or gang members and he even ended up deporting American soldiers and vets by mistake and they used a military carrying jet that cost $242,000 for every round trip 12 hours as opposed to what every other president uses a regular Boeing style jet that cost $102,000 for that round trip now you tell me that saving money that's called just showing off and guess who pays for that and he wants to do that every day oh that's a great way to save money?\nPlay you got Trump being harsher on Canadian Mexico than our enemies China and Russia oh that's right he's budding up and siding with Russia now over Ukraine telling the world Ukraine started the war? when Putin is obviously the aggressor and the war starter who even said on TV that he would have this war 3 months and no Russians would die! You now have this clown kissing his ass and spreading Russian propaganda that zielinski is a dictator Which is far from true because if it were true Trump would be actually kissing his ass like he does with every other dictator? I'm lying about he has a 4% of ratings Which is far from the truth he's got 54% rating zelensky which are higher than Trump's right now Trump's ratings are below that and they're going down fast!\nHe is crushing in the stock market he's crushing the economy and grocery prices are sky-high thanks to his tariff solution quote that he doesn't have a clue how they work

... Good. American Border Guards are FINALLY doing their job on the NORTHER BORDER !\n The traffic of people, goods AND drugs ENTERING CANADA from the US is the Job of CANADIAN BORDER SERVICES, it is NOT the fault or the problem of American Border Services to police the Canadian side of a 5,525 miles (8,891 km) border that traverses some of the wildest land in the continent ...\n The REVERSE IS ALSO TRUE ! ... Keep up the good work, my Yankee Doodle Brothers !

Someone forgot to tell them! The GRAVY TRAIN has come to a full stop!! And I as a TRUE AMERICAN!! will report you!

I'm Canadian. This is absolute BS news. If it were true it would be major news here in Canada. Americans have got to stop believing all these lies.!! There ARE NOT 16,000 migrants trying to enter NYC.!!!!!

NYC are more than happy to destroy Americans using illegals and sanctuary city policy as excuses....treason of this caliber should be met with consequences of such crimes....NO criminal illegally coming to America in NYC are more criminal than these people who hate Americans and make policies that prove they prefer illegals over Americans. Makes you wonder if they are really getting voted into these positions or they are stealing the elections to maintain their power over the people. Just follow the money and the truth will reveal their true intent. These virtue signaling pricks only care for everyone except Americans which by that nature makes them not qualified to hold any office of government in the country.

Hey Tyler- you feel safe because you’re a white male. Saying “you can pick and choose where you live and be in a safer town” isn’t true for all Americans let alone foreigners and new comers. School shootings happen more than once a month… and saying it’s easy to move (when you’re not white) isn’t true. as a woman I’d have no right to my own body. and of course I may be discriminated against at work and not get promoted because it’s the old boys’ club from Ivy league schools. The guns.

How many of your people were lynched in Canada? True, we haven’t repealed Jim Crow, but since we never had it, why bother? Nor do our elected leaders talk about “black jobs”. I welcome black Americans into my country. And I hope that one day, they will be just as welcome in USA.

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?

REPUBLCANS MINDWEL THAT RED INDIANS AND MAXICANS ARE ONLY NATIVES AMERICANS HISTORY ALSO WITNESS FOR THIS TRUE HISTORY TRUE MATTERS OF ORIGINAL RESIDENNCIAL AMERICAN BUT OTHRTS ARE FROM EUROPE AND FRANC ARE NOT ORIGINAL AMERICANS DO WHY DEPORTED ORIGINAL NATIVES AMERICANS RED INDIANS AND MAXICANS BY FIRCE,BY WRONGLY RULLINGS?

tyler i don't think u realize how bad the usa education system really is. i'm canadian but have lost count of the number of usa teachers who have complained about how bad they are held back from teaching kids properly, how kids can't be failed or held back, how kids graduating gr 12 can't read or write past gr 6 level. in fact recently there was a statistic put out that something like 60% of ALL americans cant read or write past gr 6. considering all your universities that is terrifying. not to mention with gun violence, straight up violence among kids and at teachers, the disrespect and the severe lack of good parenting, kids are not being educated at all. u yourself have done videos on where someone interviews americans and asked them questions about canada and they haven't got a clue. not one clue. yet canadian kids are regularly taught all about their american neighbours. are kids know more about america then american kids do and thats shameful. u need to do some research on this because unless u live in a rich gated elite community and go to private school the public education system in the usa is very dismal and woefully inadequate. \nalso he's right about politics. here we can discuss it rationally and then move on to other topics. in the states ppl are shooting ppl over differences in politics. beating ppl up trashing their cars and property etc. and many police are definitely not presenting themselves with professionalism tons of racism going on. and so many police because everyone is armed. here in canada we are not allowed handguns and pretty much ppl only have hunting rifles. it takes a lot of work and clearance not to mention time and money to take the necessary classes and get the necessary permits to even own a hunting rifle. in the usa show a drivers license and wait 10 days u have a handgun no matter how mental u are. therefore u need way more police than here in canada. i think u have a well to do upbringing so u have not and do not see the true picture of the america u live in. \nalso i have talked to many american friends who had insurance and still cost them about $5000 per birth of a child. with good insurance and working full time. so thats about average. here in canada u pay nothing except maybe parking for hubby while he visits.

He’s deporting people who are here legally and awaiting processing. Immigration process is long and expensive. Unless you’re wealthy. So imagine doing it the right way and this happens. We tried to tell people but no one listened. I’m black and I already know they are gonna harass us and ask us for our papers. And racists whites don’t care. MAGA= racists. That is how we see you. They truly think that being a “true “ American is being white. My grandmother was black and Choctaw. They saw it and see it differently. Her grandmother was killed by the slave master because she refused to have anymore of his children. Many of us are descendants of rapists. Trumps people weren’t even in the country at that time and when they did come here grandpappy Trumf was running a bordello in Alaska.

Im sick and tired of immagrants saying that Americans dont wanna work. Thats BS . NOT TRUE \nJUST AN EXCUSE. \nis that why they put 50 ppl in one house so only a few of them have to work ? While the rest just party n play carnival music really loud and have huge block parties ?✌️?

No immigrants are citizens wether they came or was born here. Only the indigenous people are true Americans.

She's transformed into a true European-American.

This is a true American lady.. thank you

The true native Americans from central and south America should b allowed to travel n to or thru and out of the US. This can b determined by DNA tests.

Who gives ? \nGet em out \n\nI'm noticing that there are some folks doing some serious whining about the Trump administration. So I thought I'd post some thoughts. \n\n1. Accept the fact that this is the leadership that we (the majority of) working, middle class Americans wanted. We are pulling the economic weight in this country and we are tired of pulling the weight of those that do not contribute.\n\n2. If you haven't already, get a job. Every business in the country is hiring. And you get paid for the work you do. And the harder you work and the more you learn, the faster you will advance, and the more you will earn. It's an amazing concept.\n\n3. Understand that if you are a U.S. Citizen, or have already started the legal process to become a U.S. Citizen that you are not going to get deported! I don't care what your favorite liberal media channel says.\n\n4. Tariffs are a bargaining chip. When you are in business you make deals, and sometimes you have to play hardball. That's how you get the deals you desire.\n\n5. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects you from discrimination by age, sex, race, etc. DEI openly violates this. Democrats want you to believe the opposite is true because they value your vote more than your quality of life.\n\n6. It's not the government's money, it's your money. You absolutely should give a damn about how it is spent.\n\n7. We are not the World Bank. If other countries need help they should raise their own finances. I don't recall receiving any hurricane relief money from India or China.\n\n8. Drill baby, drill. Want to know why? Because we have it. Are electric cars the future? Not in their current form. There is way more oil in the ground than lithium, and guess where most of that is? China. Want food prices to come down? Then energy costs have to come down. And that means oil, gas, coal, and nuclear. Unicorn farts and liberal tears won't power your car!\n\n9. The economy and the security of the country are far more important than your feelings, get over it.\n\n10. There are men and there are women. Simple as that.\n\n11. Education is to establish a learning core that prepares a child for the real, working world. Anything else is wrong.\n\n12. Donald J. Trump is the President of the United States and he won by a landslide — both the popular vote and the electorial vote. Get over it.

Americans, you have shown your true face. We had no doubt. You want to deport, but do it in a humane way. It's ironic how you claim to be a developed nation, yet struggle with basic human compassion.

i don't really care about the legality aspect of these people, a lot of Americans are true fascists in the most fundamental sense of the word, true worshippers of State power. you can call them criminals all you want, but fact is most of them have done nothing to anybody.

How could be true that thousands of Americans deported in these days?

when are these countries going to lift their side of the couch. true americans stand united im willing to pay escalated prices and we stand by our president.

American citizen here. To all my Canadian comrades, I'm truly sorry that we have such a non sensible person as President. As true allies and partners of the US that you all beautiful and wonderful people have been since the dawn of time, it's embarrassing for me to hear of these horrid tactics from our current administration.

Im a Canadian and only % of drugs or people go across our boarders so what Trump is saying is again not true. Americans kill Americans .... Canadians do not kill Americans. WE will not bow down to a bully. Trump cant manage his own drug problems so he has to blame others. Canadian will work hard and not buy American goods. We will do our part and stand with our governments decision on our Tariffs. Trump is a sick man and is acting like a spoiled child. He cant manage his own country so he attacks ours...Canada will be here standing strong long after Trump is gone.

??Canada WILL sustain itself! With abundant resources (oil, gas, minerals, timber, water), a strong economy, global trade, skilled labor, and food self-sufficiency, we stand strong! ???\n\nTo our American friends, thank you for standing with Canada. Your support means the world to us! We appreciate you and our shared bond as neighbors. Love you all! ❤️????\n\nCanada leads with universal healthcare, lower crime, strong social programs, stricter gun laws, better work-life balance, 18-month paid maternity leave, and stunning nature! True North, strong and free! ???\n\nWith our global allies—the UK, Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Japan, South Korea, and the entire Commonwealth—Canada thrives in international trade, security, and diplomacy! ????\n\nTo our American neighbors, stay safe. We’re thinking of you and standing with you through all challenges. Sending love and strength! ??❤️??

Showing their true colors! Ruin their country then try to come here and do the same! Entitled! Thx US government now they think they have the rights of an American citizen! The US is in serious trouble!
