Honestly I don't know why people hate on prime minister Trudeau I think he did an amazing job during a time when nobody could predict what was happening during covid and I am glad he is speaking out because in my opinion Trump has lost his mind I am not joking I think he either has dementia or dementia? and he has been making fun of Canada ever since he got elected again and what is wrong with Americans that they re-elected this person that made their country a laughingstock honestly it makes no sense to me❤ and from him saying he's going to make Canada a state of his we are bigger than your whole f**** country you stupid bastard? sorry but he makes me so angry and yes I am a proud Canadian❤

Why not explain to canadians why this is really happening

Trudeau is should be in prison for what he did to Canadian citizens. Blame him for what is happening.

Never seen a leader or President have a speech for another country to its citizens , You can tell the rats are scared and backed into a corner . Fear mongering American citizens will not help your country . Do your share and do your job and none of this will happen to any American or Canadian citizens . Right now the only ally you have is CNN . The most fear mongering net work on the planet , Which is not worth bragging about . They will be bankrupt soon with all the lawsuits they are losing .

The reason Canadians have reacted so viscerally is because they have been stabbed in the back by their brothers and sister to the south of us. What has happened was unfathomable to Canadians, it was the action of an evil mind meant to destroy.

Canadian, European (EU), British statesmanship and desire to adhere to agreements and the rule of law 10/10; US 1/10. This is what happens when the USA elects a criminal, clueless, senile dolt with a mental age of five as President.

This is a sad day for Canadians our ally and friend has stabbed us in the back to take our country. Canadians are heart broken that this has happened. We do not understand why. I have always felt welcome travelling to the US and celebrate our shared values. It is in comprehensible that the US warms to Putin and turns its back on allies.

To Justin Trudeau, any thought to cut up Felon Musk's Canadian Passport, I bet he will slow down and tell his vice president trump to back off, he is causing everyone even his best friend to lose money, check out any deals he has in Canada and cancel, make them hurt then some reality might slap them and they can see this shit don't happen in 2025!!!

What is going to happen with NORAD? I am Canadian and I would have never expected such nonsense coming from an American president! I truly believe that Trump wants a third world war because he thinks it would help his country’s economy. He is definitely the worst president of the USA ever!

I feel like this is Trump’s move to apply pressure and instability to the Canadian people in his bizarre quest to obtain Canada as another state. If you know history, you know what happened the last time America tried to take Canada.

I’m an American woman standing with Canadian people. I am so sorry this is happening ? why would Americans vote for him?

This is happening. Today while grocery shopping I put at least ten dollars worth of American products back on the shelf after reading the fine print of origin. One million Canadians doing this just once today....that's a ten million dollar expression of how fed up with your self mindedness, self agrandising and beligerance towards us. Thirty millions of Canadians doing this for a full month is a hit in the billions. WE ARE DONE WITH YOU!

Trudeau is the worst thing to ever happen to Canada. (well, that is until Carney gets in). The liberal/ndp coalition are pathetically weak. They are under the thumb of the globalist fascists of the wef/who. Not just horrible politicians but horrible human beings. We need them out so we can have an actual government that cares about Canadians and Canada and wont' sell us out to foreign billionaires of the WEF/WHO.

Fire Trudeau. He was rude to Trump. This is what happens if you are Canadian and are rude to anyone. Send him to a red room.

Trump is the best thing that could have happened to Trudeau. Finally a politician Canadians hate more than him.

Students got their visas agreeing to bear the full cost of college showing proof of financial sources from home. Canadian government NEVER ever indicated it will help. In fact Canadian government has been too generous and linient in looking the other way when minimally qualified students flooded unknown colleges and schools and not exactly following the rules. They can flock to UK or Australia but thise governments are not blind to what has been happening in Canada and will likely impose similar restrictions.

As an Australian who was born, raised, and has returned to VicDanistan... It's been a humiliating few years.\n\nBut when that same man's story has the added context of the fact that I happen to be here as a result of the path my (late) father took, coming here from Thunder Bay Ontario... The region our family had been in since the 17th century... and ironically live in Canadian, Victoria (so named due to the unknown Canadian killed in the Eureka Stockade).\n\nWhen I consider all that, it often feels as though the simulation is just trying to make jokes. \n\nBut I can assure you, it's not a life story that's easy to get behind, or laugh at. The maple leaf or even the southern cross are no star spangled banner, not in this current year, that's for sure.

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

I mean don't come and say I don't like Canadian laws or culture so we commande all of you to bow to my culture. No not happening.

Trudeau and the Canadian Liberal government is absolutely are aware of this and are complicit by intention but pretend and deny it is happening. F..K Trudeau

As a canadian I can without a doubt SCREAM that Trudeau has absolutely destroyed this country. Take what's happened in NYC and apply it to our entire country. replace latin americans with INDIANS. That's canada.

Canadians out here pretending it's all the US fault this is happening. Meanwhile the fucking assholes are letting them enter Canada and then across the border.

I'm a Canadian and I had no clue that we had this issue... Most of our media is government funded and so they don't report wrong doings of the administration like they should, plus lots of censoring so this is the first im hearing of it. Crazy I had to hear from an American what's really happening at the Canadian border. Trumps tariff threats due to our lax boarder makes sense now

All the attention here is on the Eastern US/Canadian border (naturally enough, Cash being in NYC), but the vast majority of drugs are pouring across in BC. Fentanyl labs have been discovered in Canada, converting large amounts of precursor chemicals from China, with help from both the Sinaloa Cartel and Canadian Indian gangs (from India). Several informants on the Ironclad YT Channel (Katarina Szulc being one) have told how this is happening.

ya as a Canadian .. we are fuking pissed our gov let this shit happen to. \nit's not us as Canadians .. please stop making it out to be the Canadians that are doing it. .were not .. our fuking re tardted gov did this ... not us. stop blaming the citizens please. . I hate the gov we have a d just because of them you guys are blaming us as individuals .. like we have a choies .. if we had a say we would lock down our country and boot the lot of them right back to where they flooded in from. they are fuking us over multiple ways over. not just you guys. \n\nopen your eyes to see the reality .. not just what the media and now YouTubers are pushing that hate Canada. .. wtf .. we have been right beside you in war and other things as friends and now because of a few re tards you blame all of us. lol. just call the fuk down and open your eyes .

Mr Trump is right exactly what happen in UK \nat edge of civil war refugee stay built you country 99% are invader \nWhy not going to Saudia the rich country Quatar Iran Pakistan Bangladesh \nHow they crossed from Middle East to Europe and Canada they can do opposite direction \nEnglish was not language of Middle East Bangladesh or Pakistan why they migrated was invasion on big scale but naive stupid European Canadian Australian (the video of buses killing patient ) Don’t say few bad apples that is Islam ideology listen to Islam preaching Muhammed hijab you know the truth

*And the Canadian saying that this doesn't exist and Canada denieing they are doing nothing I guess its been proven to be true they allow this to happen continue the tarrifs again till they actuallydo something*

If anyone thinks the Canadian Prime Sinister gives a damn about what happens at our border with the US, think again. He had lots of opportunity to solve the problem and did nothing. And if we are stupid enough to elect Mark Carney then we deserve the full wrath of President Trump.

How are the buses doing this? if Canadians travel on buses they have to stop at the border and show the authorities their passports. Matter of fact you have to show passport on any bus that is going to cross the border. I have seen people jerked right off a bus that did not qualify at the border. So how in the heck is this happening??

Guess it’s tariff time! \nCanada wants to FAFO. They lost so many investors the week it was announced last time and the Canadian dollar lost a little value. Let’s see what happens when we pull the trigger for a few months.

There use to be a border patrol show for the Canadian border. I always hated that show because how difficult it was to even enter the country to visit. Very very strick and the agents did their jobs well. What happened to those standards. The illegals wouldn’t be crossing the border if Canada kept those strick standards. I learned why the agents were so strick.

HEY CANADIANS.. THIS IS WHY TRUMP THREATENED TARRIFS. AND YOUR RESPONSE TO ME WAS IT DOESN'T HAPPEN.. LYING LEFTISTS

I’m an Indian and Canadian currently living in Middle East. This shitty behaviours does not happen here because those do such would be behind bar in no time..

I am Canadian at the time I speak of I was recovering from hip replacement, an American lady was brought into my room from broken hip replacement surgery and no insurance, she was accepted as a patient, there was a meeting around her bed what they were planning to do to ,put her on a commercial flight home, for the fee she couldn't pay, the doctor told her he would for go his fee but couldn't say what the hospital would do about their fee, happily she was sent on her way home quickly, would this happen in America?

Yeah, Canada is not a real country. By the way. It happened during 1931. When Canada got the chance to become a country, Quebec didn't want to be a part of it so therefore it was not an official country. That means the people's right Constitution didn't go through. Each province can easily leave and join America or become its own country. That's why you see province to province have tariff on each other. Then people complain when US puts 25% when Canada is ripping themselves off.\n\nAll Canadians tax money is bribing Quebec to stay attached, or else Canada will easily fall apart from any direction. Facts!

A Canadian can only dream of this happening here

My girlfriend was a Canadian immigrant who came to live in Mexico City with her savings, I offered her to stay in my place but.. somehow, she knew something bad was about to happen to her... Covid took her... still miss you, Jean.

Tyler, I am sorry for what is happening in your country because I believe there are more great people compared to the “other” that we see creeping out of their holes. I worry for your less fortunate, those depending on help from their government and have earned this right, those being tossed out for no good reason. I worry about Canada too and although we do complain about our government this is not all bad keeps them on their toes but they will fight for Canadians. I do not see that happening enough in your country, I see complacency everywhere with such horrible things happening. I pray for our friends. No I am not a bible thumper like maga. I just believe like normal people do. Big hugs from this Canadian. ???? sadly I cannot bring myself to add the American flag beside ours ☹️?

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!

This is happening at the southern border but; Trump is acting like the northern border is worse? How can anyone compare the two and not see that the Canadian borders are much better controlled?

Trump says EU tariffs will ‘definitely happen’ as Mexico, Canada and China retaliate \nTrump takes softer line on UK, saying ‘I think that one can be worked out’, while Mexico and Canada vow levies and to strengthen ties with each other \n \nPhilip Wen, Léonie Chao-Fong and agencies \nMon 3 Feb 2025 03.57 GMT \nShare \nDonald Trump has threatened to widen the scope of his trade tariffs, repeating his warning that the European Union – and potentially the UK – will face levies, even as he conceded that Americans could bear some of the economic brunt of a nascent global trade war. \n \nIt comes as Trump’s tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, announced on Saturday, sparked retaliation from all three countries. Mexico and Canada have vowed levies of their own while China and Canada are seeking legal challenges. \n \nTrump said on Sunday night that new tariffs on the EU will “definitely happen”, repeating previous complaints about the large US trade deficit with the bloc and his desire for Europe to import more American cars and agricultural products. \n \nEmpty shelves remain with signs ''Buy Canadian Instead'' after the top five US liquor brands were removed from sale at a British Columbia liquor store in Vancouver. \nAsian sharemarkets tumble in response to Trump tariffs \nRead more \n“It will definitely happen with the European Union, I can tell you that,” he told reporters. “I wouldn’t say there’s a timeline but it’s going to be pretty soon.” \n \nTrump appeared to take a softer line on the UK, citing a good relationship with prime minister Keir Starmer while saying tariffs still “might happen”. “The UK is out of line but I’m sure that one, I think that one can be worked out,” he said. \n \n“Well Prime Minister Starmer’s been very nice, we’ve had a couple of meetings, we’ve had numerous phone calls, we’re getting along very well, we’ll see whether or not we can balance out our budget.” \n \nIn Canada, the department of finance published a list of US products imported into Canada that it will target with a 25% retaliatory tariff starting on Tuesday. \n \nThe list shows products that will be hit in the first round of retaliatory tariffs by Canada starting on Tuesday, and mounts to $30bn Canadian dollars’ worth of goods (about US$20bn). The impacted products include tobacco, produce, household appliances, firearms and military gear. \n \nCanada is also preparing for a second, broader round of retaliatory tariffs in 21 days that will target an additional C$125bn (US$86bn) worth of US imports. The second list would include passenger vehicles, trucks, steel and aluminum products, certain fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, dairy products and more. \n \nFILES-US-CANADA-MEXICO-CHINA-TRADE-TARIFFS<br>(FILES) US President Donald Trump speaks to the press after signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC on January 31, 2025. Trump is imposing steep tariffs on major US trading partners Canada, Mexico and China, with a lower rate on Canadian energy imports, said the White House on February 1, 2025. Washington will impose a 25 percent levy on imports from Canada and Mexico, with a 10 percent rate on Canadian energy resources, until both work with the United States on drug trafficking and immigration. Goods from China, said the White House, would face 10 percent tariffs.

Sheinbaum, in a statement on Sunday, said she will announce details on her government’s “plan B” as she insisted that Mexico “doesn’t want confrontation”. \n \n“Problems are not addressed by imposing tariffs, but with talks and dialogue,” she said. “Sovereignty is not negotiable: coordination yes, subordination no.” \n \n'Coordination yes, subordination no': Mexican president responds to Trump's tariffs – video \nSheinbaum and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau spoke by phone on Saturday after Trump’s administration imposed the new tariffs – 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, with a lower rate of 10% for Canadian oil, and 10% on imports from China. \n \nTrudeau’s office said in a statement that Canada and Mexico agreed “to enhance the strong bilateral relations” between their countries. Canadian officials have had extensive dialogue with their Mexican counterparts, but a senior Canadian official said he would not go as far as to say the tariff responses were coordinated. \n \n“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau posted Sunday on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.” \n \nTrump acknowledged the sweeping tariffs he has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China may cause “short term” pain for Americans as global markets reflected concerns the levies could undermine growth and reignite inflation. Asian markets, cryptocurrencies and US and European stock futures slumped in early Asian trading on Monday. \n \n“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said. day, Trudeau said: “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.” However on Sunday evening, a senior government official from Canada briefing reporters in Ottowa on condition of anonymity said: “We will obviously pursue the legal recourse that we believe we have through the agreements that we share with the United States.” \n \nThe official said the Canadian government considered the move by Trump illegal and said it violates the trade commitments between the two countries under their free trade agreement and under the World Trade Organization. \n \n“If other legal avenues are available to us, they will be considered as well,” the official said. \n \nCanada is the largest export market for 36 states, and Mexico is the largest trading partner of the US. \n \nCanada and Mexico ordered the tariffs despite Trump’s further threat to increase the duties charged if retaliatory levies are placed on US goods. \n \nChina also said it would file a lawsuit against the tariffs. The imposition of tariffs by the US “seriously violates” World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement, urging the US to “engage in frank dialogue and strengthen cooperation”. \n \nFiling a lawsuit with the WTO would be a largely symbolic move that Beijing has also taken against tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles by the EU. \n \nThe commerce ministry also said the tariffs were “not only unhelpful in solving the US’s own problems, but also undermine normal economic and trade cooperation”. China has said it would take countermeasures to “safeguard its own rights and interests”. It is not clear exactly what form these will take yet. But for weeks Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning has said Beijing believes there is no winner in a trade war. \n \nLate Sunday night, Trump said he would speak with Trudeau on Monday morning and shortly after said he would speak with Mexico as well, although he did not specify that he would speak with Sheinbaum. \n \nBeyond the official response, people were already thinking of ways to cope with Trump’s decision, including by sharing suggestions on social media for alternatives to US products. \n \nCanadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem on Saturday night at two National Hockey League games.

Joseph Chua, who works as an importer, said he expects to feel the tariffs “pretty directly”. “I’ve always stood during both anthems. I’ve taken my hat off to show respect to the American national anthem, but today we’re feeling a little bitter about things,” he said, adding that he will start to avoid buying US products. \n \nIn the streets, people in Mexico were trying to absorb the announcement on Sunday, although some in the capital acknowledged that they were unaware of the measures. \n \nIn the border city of Mexicali, across from Calexico, California, some people were concerned about the wider implications of a trade war. \n \nDriver Alejandro Acosta says that he crosses the border weekly in his truck to deliver vegetables to US companies. He said he fears US businesses in the Mexicali Valley will no longer want to operate in Mexico and they will move to the US. \n \n“If they raise taxes on the factories here, jobs may also decrease,” he said.

Same thing happens on canadian border. Massive influx of fake refugee who got rejected of their asylum application in the u.s sneak across the border into canada and claim asylum. They get 8000 canadian dollar a month paid by canadian taxpayer until their case finalize whether they are legit or fake

Trump said, Secure the border and pay the 2 percent to the military.\nInstead, Eastern leaders decide to WAIT for threatened tariffs and, when it happens, they decide on having a trade war.\nThat is liberal thinking in action.\n\nHow much would it cost to secure the border and pay the 2 percent Canada owes? (which would benefit Canada).\n\nInstead they choose to show their pride and demonstrative stupidity.\n\nIt's the Canadian people that suffer.\n\nTHEY SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO ALBERTA'S PREMIER DANIELLE SMITH.\n\nWake up Federation leaders.\nCanadian citizens (especially in the west) are going to suffer (even more than you've already caused).\n\nGet back to improved relations with the US, and, ALSO, seek out more trade with EU and anyone other country available.\nThis will make Canada stronger.\nWell, that and actually having elections!

Justin is a complete scam! This wouldn't have happened if the Canadian government were watching their boarder control properly. Would they, Justin!

One guy screwing up the world economy another looser keeping a war( Putin) going ? trump has no respect for Trudeau ( neither have most Canadians). But yes lets where all if this is going . At this point it’s more a hype about what trump announces . We can only react to it when it happens . For sure is that canada put to many eggs in one basket . For us the transport is short across the border but Europe would definitely benefit from our resources. The challenge is that trump is only in for 4 years , after his departure prices will stay up ,as history has proven .

Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, merci beaucoup! Your address to our proud nation Saturday night helped my family and me feel safer. It's much like during COVID-19 when you were there for Canadians at every step, every turn with initiatives and concrete help. Too bad we cannot procure masks and vaccines to ward off Trump-25. You, your Ministers and Premiers are working so hard trying to reason with a lunatic addicted to power and chaos and inform Americans of the facts. With prorogation, there have been no Poilièvre shenanigans to waste time on and your complete focus has been, as always, on protecting Canadians. For this I thank you again and tell you how much you will be missed in our household. Forgive a personal note: I hope you and Mme Grégoire will find your way back to each other when you can be a family without the heavy burden of this job, a job I know you love. And very personally - I shall miss the handsome, capable, well-spoken man of stature and intellect who also happens to be my Prime Minister. Vraiment!

For the vast majority of Americans, including Trump who don't know this: \n- 90% of all aluminum used in the USA comes from Canada. \n- 80% of the potash used to grow food on US farms comes from Canada. \n- Steel is made in Canada. - Uranium is exported from Canada. \n- Minerals needed for electronics are exported from Canada. The only alternatives are China and Russia. \n- 60% of all imported oil in the US comes from Canada. \n- Electricity produced in Canada is delivered to the states of New York, Vermont, Maine and over 20 other US states. We’ll soon find out if convicted felon Trump and his supporters need Canada when that electricity gets turned off. If Trump can rip our mutually-negotiated agreements so can Canada. We did not ask for this economic war nor did we start it. Trump did. \n \nIt's also time to super-tax every pound of US coal being exported through Roberts Bank Super-port in Delta, British Columbia, Canada. The American coal exported through Roberts Bank does not even pay a provincial carbon tax like all BC residents pay. Canadians are about to show Trump what happens when you consistently lie and stab your best customer and neighbour in the back. We are not afraid of Trump. Canada is the second-largest country in the world by land area and we have the longest coastline in the world, with over 243,000 kilometers of shoreline. We will continue expanding our trade with Pacific Rim countries, Europe, Mexico and beyond. They all need and want our lumber, minerals, oil and gas, grass fed beef, and the dependable, respectful trading partner that we are.

Why does the Canadian Prime Minister care so much about what would happen to US citizens? If it is so bad for Americans, then it is good for Canada right? So Canada should be cheering for tariffs.

canadian military will take transgender military members. Our military pays for the surgery, gives free counselors. There are a lot of conservatives in the canadian military, including my husband, and he works with a lot of transgender people and no one cares. IF someone wants to transition no one cares, if someone wants to be they/them no one cares. They lives their lives and get the job done. Literally the worst thing that could happen if a person was cut off from hormones was they'd probaby act like PMS. PMS just means not taking peoples shit.

I’m from Vancouver bc and it upsets me that this site keeps saying oh we need skilled workers not labourers I’m a skilled worker born and bred in bc 10 years experience painter can’t get a job unless I get 10$ less per hour than 2014 and carpentry same thing. The employers want only Indian and Mexican workers because there cheap. This Friday I’m going homeless with my dog because I can’t find work or affordable housing. Government saying we need skilled workers is a scam they want cheap workers no sense of safety or Canadian culture. How did the government let this happen we’re fucked also how did wages not go up when cost of living doubled I don’t care about being able to buy a 1.5 million dollar house but the locals should be able to get by
