I'm from Canada, Trump wants to destroy us, he is a bully, Trump deserves everything he gets and I hope it hurts him good.I am very touched to see the support of the world for Canada thank you's

I know...I've been to Niagara Falls and Toronto....best visiting place ever. Beautiful Country and my hope is to one day have an opportunity to visit and take the train across. Thank you for your help with the California Fires....you are having to deal with a deranged, self-loving monster who IS NOT QUALIFIED to have the job he is playing with. You must defend yourselves of all his whims and orders. This dictator want-to-be, whom many of us don't want here, is a bully! Don't allow that to happen...ever. Push back...don't let the bully orange tumor get his way without repercussions. We as citizens know there will be a high price to pay, but we are not blinded to his tyranny.

This trade war has nothing to do with fentanyl, Trump is a turncoat aka treasonous person who has been working with Russia all along and is using any and all excuses to cause people to look at anything else but him as he lines the pockets of his billionaire buddies because America gave him that when they said a president can't be charged for anything they do while serving in the White house. Thanks a lot supreme court and to all those that voted for him...... I hope you all get deported and lose all your money for putting us Normal non radicalized Americans through h3!!. It's insane how people are so blined that they know he lies and is a criminal and when hit with hard facts he calls it fake news and they all believe it. My own mother in law is one too. I hate this

Those US citizens who did not vote for tRump and we support Canada. My husband is a retired Airborne Ranger who worked cooperatively with military personnel from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, and other democratic countries around the world. We are just sick about how tRump has treated our allies. He is a bully and a draft dodging coward. We don’t blame any of our NATO allies who apply pressure through tariffs, etc to give tRump the consequences he deserves for his bad behavior. He is hurting the US country and its citizens, being cruel to their people lower income US citizens. Middle and lower class US citizens are going to be suffering under his US as he is trying to get rid of every program that helps us live with dignity. He is hurting our farmers. We know that he is a narcissistic psychopath. Most of us can’t wait until he and JD Vance are out of office, and hopefully in prison. They don’t care how many US citizens they hurt with their greedy megalomaniac agenda. We are sorry that our administration is being so unreasonable and hope you can forgive the rest of the US citizens that never wanted this situation with you and our other NATO allies.

We've tried telling them, hopefully you can get through to them. These idiots believe that ONLY the companies will be incurring the cost, NOT THE END CONSUMERS. Trump loves the uneducated!

Trudeau took pains to distinguish between everyday decent Americans just trying to get by and their unhinged government which is leading them into economic and political ruin. As a Canadian who has traveled extensively in the US, and has friends there, I hope American citizens can save themselves.

feel sorry for your farmers hope they got what they wanted when they lose there farmes and all the stores that will close 25 billion dollars on vacations GONE buy american products gone day trips gone order on line from usa gone investing gone get the point america

Many US citizens want to work with Canada! Eff Trump! Do what y'all need to do and we'll be working on getting that tyrant and his cronies out of office. I hope when this is all over we can be friends again and may it never happen again. Sometimes you need to slap sense into your friends and that is exactly what Canada is doing so thank you Canada.

Harsh language? Lol get real... I hope the people of America and Canada still stand together whether our governments are in disagreement or not.

I hope Canada is not in a hurry to get back to the negotiating table till Ukraine gets the help they need from the US. Zelenskyi is a hero and Trump doesn't like heroes

As a Canadian, I can assure you CNN and all Americans, Canada will not back down. Remember this pain your country will feel is not what Canadians want, but our response to your President’s stupidity and apparent new support for our mutual enemy Russia. Get you country back. You are sliding into fascism and authoritarianism. We hope you right your ship.

Awh!! Look what Donnie the clown did for you Americans!! Hopefully you’re happy for what you voted for because you’re getting exactly what you deserved maybe try listening or try thinking outside of the box!! being a Democrat or even a Republican doesn’t do shit for you as you can clearly see

It’s so funny the excuse that Trump uses to justify his actions against allies such as Canada when in reality there is far more drugs going from USA to Canada than there is the other way around. This has never been about drugs or anything other than a personal financial gain for Trump and his own buddies like Putin. It’s a shame innocent people are caught in the middle but America did vote for him so hopefully eyes will start to open to the truth when it finally starts affecting American pockets directly as unfortunately that’s the only way you can get through to most of those kinds of people.

I’m sorry Canada. We have 77million people who voted for this moron. I just hope they see what they did and never vote for another Republican. We need strong honest people running our country. Not a bunch of faithful followers with no back bone. Can’t wait , we vote every two years . That’s when we will dismantle this cult. Hey democrats get out from under your rocks.

He dives deep into Trumps ass. Will not help. I hope western countries will get that Trump now is on an accelerated path his role model Putin was years before.

I hope Canada And Mexico doesn't back down. Fucking hate Trump. Lies after Lies and guess what people defend him. Not My president people say. You voted for a dictator that lies through his fucking teeth, hes not going to change. Yall really thought him getting shot was the wake up call? That was his call for him being able to do no wrong, then they say oh you'd rather have Kamala? yes..... Yes I would..... look at our country idiots.... Not saying she would've been much better, but her team at least had common sense, trumps is a bunch of Rich sore losers who cant do nothing wrong.

This is about to be painful and you we can’t do anything but support Canada. I am so pissed at this administration and beyond embarrassed. Hopefully this will be a wake up call to all- we need to harass our representatives and get these clowns and their cronies out of office asap!

Is there no one at CNN who can translate French? Really? I'm American, and I'm hoping Trudeau announces that he's making trade deals with Europe (and even China) that cut us out. Betraying our allies should never be incentvised. I'm even hoping they cut off our oil, which WILL jack gas prices, since our refineries in the Midwest are only deisgned to process Canadian crude. And the truth is that the reason for the tariffs is that Trump has direct control over them, and can probably have Elon do something with the revenue that couldn't be done with normal taxes. We're all getting screwed here.

I blame the democrats, all they had to do was get a handle on immigration and not make it so obvious that they were just giving out tax money to house them and get inflation down better then we probably wouldn’t be in this situation now. I just hope the king of America know what he’s doing

he will be gone soon , and hopefully we get a new goverment

Norway stands with Canada and hope one day we get rid of the Orange Monster

My problem with the doom and gloom is people love to blame all our problem on the current PM and “wokeness”. I am not saying JT and the Liberals don’t deserve any criticism they do but all the time it’s for all the wrong reasons. Public Housing is a provincial issue, Healthcare is a provincial issue zoning is a municipal issue. However all of these issues are made worse by lack of public housing funding (looking at you Doug Ford) and nimbyism at the municipal level (looking at you Rob Ford and almost every mayor large Canadian cites have had). My parents hate JT now because property prices came down slightly but they loved him during Covid when prices went through the roof. When the liberals implemented the mortgage stress test they hated him and voted conservative in 2019 because Andrew Scheer went on the news and said he will get rid of it. When the liberals got rid of the stress test on first time homebuyers they loved the liberals again. They are property developers so they don’t mind paving over the Agricultural land reserve but god forbid a fourplex is built in our neighborhood. However I am not too cynical I have seen progress by the current government AFTER THEY WHERE -20pts in the polls. Now I just hope the Tories don’t get rid of the Housing accelerator fund and other funds that will make a impact in 10 years.

Why are Indians desperate to get out\nDon't they know India is a land of hope and opportunity.\nAn economic superpower.\n???????

It's funny, but we tend to go liberal or conservative. Whatever Alberta is more conservative. Far, right? Conservative, and that's not a good thing. Because they hate everybody and that's just the way it is, if you're not a white, Christian nationalist. You're nothing so yeah, it's an Alberta. And it's bad and our governments the same way. And that's sad.We need to get rid of this conservative government and maybe things have get better.I don't know certainly hope so

Why spend all that tax money on northern boarder enforcement - how about Canada - reform your immigration policy and stop em at the airport. Cost a lot less to stop them at the airports if they don't have a good reason then tracking em down with Blackhawks and depleting our resources. Hope you get a better leader soon! Trudeau just talks out both sides of a#%, but unlike sleepy Joe, at least he can talk??

sorry Tyler, didnt know where to send this talk, hope it gets to you. I recently watched a You Tube video from a couple, who had never been in Canada, it was quite amazing, think it was called something Southern or so. one of the main things, the gentleman was looking for is they had travelled from the west trough Toronto to the East and threw their arms up, saying, where are all the police, they had only seen 1 cop car in the city on their visit. secondly, he was dissappointed he could see where the hoods were, he wanted to see the Crackheads. (we dont have hoods like they do in the US)., another thing was he was sad because he couldnt find any Moose while they were driving from Niagara Falls to Toronto. Love your shows and talks. keep it up, thanks

Send them all back home. Very good decision Mr. President. I hope after the new government in Germany failed soon, we in Germany get a new Government which make the same decision like you.

Canadian here and our failed Prime Minister is a joke. Hopefully we can get someone with a brain soon. We need to start screening and sending ppl back on flights from the get go. We love and support the U.S. and most Canadians don’t support this. Trudeau is an idiot.

This is getting out of hand the illegals are like “ “ being in a dark room then someone turns the lights on! They need to go we need the national guard to keep these illegals from coming in here. They hate the United States so much but they still try to come here and destroy our way of life. New York needs to be cut off from all federal funding so this craziness will stop. Hopefully, the government knows about this and will be waiting for them this is just disgusting!

?Sounds very expensive to fly from all over the world, reside in freezing Canada then walk over the boarder in brand new clothes. I hope they find who’s funding 12M illegal’s to get here.

United States is healing im hoping to get approved my Visa :)

Meanwhile I’m struggling to pay my bills and keep groceries on the table for my disabled son and I. I can’t even get a snap card… and I’ve paid taxes for over 25 years and was born here. Our government really hates the citizens of this country. Hopefully Trump can start helping the working poor people. Peace

As a Canadian..i'll say this. Our country is a bad shape right now...and the countless 'extra' people, mostly indians, are not helping. We need immigration. I am not against it. But I am against illegal migration and resource sucking. There is no legit vetting process anymore. Countless indians are being given visas that were granted on bogus claims on their documents. Fake education records...fake employement records. Then they get their visa...and don't go 'home' when it expires. Then they have what indians like to call 'anchor babies'....so that their baby has Canadian citizenship and then they hope that pity will be taken and they, the parents, won't be shipped home. They don't assimilate and totally disregard our way of life. It is appauling.

So happy to see something finally happening. It sickens me to see how they get everything for free while our elderly have to decide if they will buy food or their meds this month!!!!! While our veterans are homeless on the streets. I hope Trump pulls federal funding for states that harbor illegals.

I'm Canadian...and we absolutely should stop the illegal border crossings. And here in Canada we should get all who get off the bloody plane hoping to run the border.

Lets hope Trudeau gets wrapped up in a scandal with the Clintons and Obama Foundations . Honey and Barry Sherman . The timing of visits seem very sus.

Dear bodacious,\nI totally agree with you. My Mother was Hungarian and she applied for citizenship with my Dad’s help because he had served in WW2 , and he was an American citizen.\nThey did everything the legal way. Mom took classes. Learned English. She was so proud of being naturalized as an American citizen.\nWhy can’t people obey our laws? They have respect for our Sovereignty or all the people, soldiers et al who fought for our freedom to exist and evolve as a nation.\nI agree with Bllood, Sweat, and Fears as well!\nThe President’s Cabinet are working well together: Kash Patel will move the FBI agents out to work the field of our country….hunting down terrorists and criminals. Trafficking in drugs/ sex/ slave labor.\nObama/Biden disobey existing laws. Hope all the stolen money gets frozen by the DOJ

I’m sorry.. our country has been a mess for a long time because our government is so corrupt we haven’t been able to get rid of them. Only a couple months left I hope.. and we’ll quickly get it together ??

Western Canadian here. Our current liberal government opened immigration to bizarre levels over the last several years I believe to get more liberal voters. Our country is in a bad way and don’t blame Trump for clamping down. Trudeau and now Carney are quite happy to keep the WEF plan going. Hopefully we get a common sense conservative government in Canada soon !

President Trump needs to try to get a hold of control of Canada, AND if he can, GET CANADA TO BECOME THE USA's BELOVED 51st STATE, because Justine Trudeau is NOT PROTECTING CANADA, NOR IS JUSTINE TRUDEAU , AND ALL OF HIS LITTLE ATHEISTIC COMMUNIST FRIENDS, BEING VERY NICE TO CANADA'S NEAREST AND DEAREST NEIGHBOR, THE USA. I HOPE THAT PIERRE POLIEVIER IS ABLE TO TURN CANADA AROUND, BUT THIS WILL BE TOUGH, A VERY , VERY TOUGH JOB FOR POLIEVIER, OR ANYONE ELSE IN CANADA, TO TURN THINGS AROUND, WITH ALL OF THE CRAZY ATHEISTIC GODLESS COMMUNIST LIBERALS, WHO HAVE CORRUPTED CANADA, AND CONTINUE RUNNING AROUND CANADA, DESTROYING EVERYTHING FOR THE CANADIAN CITIZENS.

I’d say let them get frost bite. They’re that stupid to come here illegally, you should be punished for it whether it’s by God’s hands, or by Trumps. Either way, they’re not gonna get treated like kings anymore I hope.

@CashJordan Actually the REAL REASON the progressive leaders are against deportations is THE CENSUS. *The more people you have counted, the more FEDERAL MONEY you get.* Trump called it in his first term. He wanted only US citizens counted. But Congress didn't even want to take it up. The next CENSUS is in 2030. Hopefully Congress will change it by then.

It’s not that they hate America. That’s just the words they’re using to try to get the weak minded to follow them. The reality is that they’re making money off of illegal immigrants. Politicians are seeking power from illegal immigration as it skews the census. People who organize the protests are getting paid big bucks. Some of the people who are part of the crowd in these protests are also getting paid to make it look like a big deal in the hopes that the weak minded will follow.

I'll tell you what they're at risk of. They're at risk of getting arrested for harboring illegal aliens inside the US and hiding them from the federal authorities. I hope they get locked up.

Hopefully she doesn’t get sick and need her family

When I go to the hospital in Canada I don't have to wait if people think that then they're wrong and then I get treated and don't pay a thing so I hope Americans understand that they pay thousands of dollars for healthcare that most Canadians can walk in and get for free,, yes it comes off our taxes but everybody in the country taste those taxes even if they don't use Healthcare so it helps people that are really in need

I think a major reason for the rejection is that many jump ships hoping to get employment and permanent residency ?

Stop blaming other countries… we need to find our own mistakes… then we have at least little hope to change our mindset….we have habit of blaming others for our own mistakes..if you are not fitting in the rule- regulations of visa process of- course it will get rejected… most people have fake paper work for visas. \n\nSimple example… if someone enter illegally in our country we will call them terrorist … some countries put them in jail according to illegal act… I appreciate that they are sending them back to their own country… actually we should thank them for saving these people future.\n\nMaharashtra took a step earlier when they send UP citizens out of Maharashtra… in their own country they cannot go to other state.. how you think other countries should let them enter illegally n not take any action… I think we should think before saying anything.\n\nIllegally enter people don’t pay tax… indirectly they put so much pressure on health n other systems…we the tax payer bear that cost.. is that fare ? \n\nThey don’t follow rules of country… they behave similar how they behave in India … they don’t follow health- hygiene , equality rules.\n\nOur country more diverse but no equality… still people get priority based on reach- poor or on caste basis.\n\nIn other country any Indian do something exceptional then we say they are Indian… but no one think that they got that opportunity to prove themself because they were in other country… in our country people doesn’t get opportunity based on their calibre… \n\nWe have habit that we go abroad… earn money… get ideas of business n going back to India we say that’s our own idea… no appreciation at all… so many new businesses has got ideas from other developed countries but no courtesy to appreciate others or thank them.\n\nEven our news channels… everything is happening first time in the world… even it happens so many year earlier in other countries….some people they really don’t know n they believe that…. It’s just playing with people emotions… not providing real information… we all are human beings… we need to appreciate each other… \n\nThese countries have some rules n regulations for human beings to develop equality n equal opportunities. Most of the NRI appreciate that as we haven’t got that in our own country.

Basically, for the past four years, Biden, Harris and the Democrat Party have spent hundreds of billions of US tax dollars flying illegal immigrants in and basically leaving America’s borders in Mexico and Canada wide open to mass illegal immigration. Then they lied to the American people about the real numbers and how bad the problem really was. In the past few years, the Democrats have spent billions throughout all of our federal agencies via misappropriated US taxpayer funds that were earmarked for American citizens or American infrastructure and development, then used these misappropriated, taxpayer funds to provide housing, food, education, medical care, and in most cases, luxury hotels. Just within the past two weeks FEMA spent over $500 million to provide luxury hotels for illegal immigrants yet a few weeks ago they were still claiming that they didn’t have enough money to help American citizens who suffered catastrophic loss during recent hurricanes and wildfires. The simple fact that Democrats got more upset that Elon Musk bought Twitter than they are, that their own political party in government for the past four years, has literally been holding them at gunpoint and forcing them to pay taxes so that they could steal it or launder it into their own campaigns and pockets is literally disturbing! WTF!!!! If any of those other federal agencies are ran or funded the way U.S. AID were, with the massive corruption, misappropriation, fraud and theft of taxpayer funds, then I hope DODGE goes through an completely audits, every single federal agency in the United States. No wonder the Democrats are freaking out the way they are, if the Republicans got caught this bad with their hand in the taxpayer cookie jar, then you know the Democrats would be screaming a different tune. The Democrats are trying to manipulate taxpayers into believing utter nonsense like their phrase “ no one voted for Elon Musk. “ but in reality no citizen ever votes for the hundreds of the civilian presidential appointed positions to run these federal agencies, every new president pics/appoints to these positions every term. It definitely explains why hard-working tax paying men and women are getting completely ripped off and robbed every time they look at their paycheck and see how extremely and unnecessarily high taxes are now. The Democratic Party has completely destroyed its reputation with the American taxpayer, they got completely exposed for their corrupt, anti-American, extremist, radical,and woke liberal agenda. They were absolutely using tens of millions of US taxpayer funds to finance terrorist organizations like the Taliban and Isis, billions of US taxpayer funds, pushing their racist and sexist woke liberal DEI agenda across the globe, they were absolutely bribing corporate news media to control the narrative and manipulate the American people to influence elections via corporate news media subscription payments to very left, leaning news organizations, such as politico and others, that were clearly and obviously bribes to the media, just one of the NGO of many organizations under U.S. AID paid $75,000 of taxpayer money a year for a Digital subscription to politico’s corporate news outlet , that any one could sign up for $10 a year like any other news outlets digital subscription. The list of fraud, corruption, and very obvious US taxpayer funds theft, just goes on and on and on. I think the worst betrayal of it all is the fact that any US tax paying citizen or to steal one single US tax dollar from the government, we would be publicly arrested, put in handcuffs, charged with a felony, and prosecuted to the absolute max, the law would allow, but these Washington elite politicians are allowed to do this without even a public slap on the wrist is the most disgusting and devious, betrayal, and loss of trust that the American taxpayer has ever known.???????????????????????????????????????????

Twenty thousand Indian students went to Canada on student visa but never reported to college just went missing. The most corrupted students among all other nations and the main culprits are Punjabi and Gujrati speaking students. How well paid jobs question arise, the students went for study on student visa,so how they can hope for getting jobs on student visa. Only a fool and brainless idiots working as journalist can say this.
