Canada can trade with the rest of the free world ,leave the us behind their self-imposed wall

Trudeau, I served my country in the Gulf War and love my country, We love Canada and Mexico, our Leader does not represent me or the rest of the country.

Elbows up Canada! We will not be pushed around! The rest of the west is the best of the west. We need to decouple from this wannabe dictatorial regime and find true allies in Europe, Oceania and East Asia!

Another note regarding fentanyl, as an American I do not see it as a Canadian/Mexican problem. Canada nor Mexico want to sell Fentanyl. Drugs are a United States problem. We, citizens of the United States are the problem. It’s time to look at ourselves instead of blaming the rest of the world. Lets stop being the worlds largest drug market.

Some american people stand with you. The rest of those people are MAGA. Now we ALL pay. Canada please remember we are NOT all MAGA and support you. As far as I am concerned you need not explain it again. Those that listen have heard you. WE heard Kamala and Tim. The rest have their heads so far up their arse they can't hear!

I'd love to think enablers of the current US regime would understand the utter folly of its policies (to dignify them with a label they don't deserve), but I think that's unlikely. If they are religious fanatics, they will martyr themselves to sustain the usurpation of human rights so that their ideologies can remain in place. If they are self-serving oligarchs, they don't care; they've got plenty of money and are poised to make a lot more. If they are clueless, no amount of reason will reach them. The rest of us stand with Canada.

As a European i FULLY support Canada against this economic bullying.\nI hope Trump not only puts 25% on us Europeans, but 100%!! Let's go. 2 can play this game.\nTo all my Canadian friends, you can be rest assured that i'll vote for politicians that want to work with Canadians, Mexicans AND Chinese!

As an American, my opinion is Trump is a traitor, siding with Dictators and from all evidence it appears he’s trying to destroy us. I am for and with Canada and the rest of the free world. Do everything you can to defeat Trump.

Very good summary. I will add that our I know you wanted to be concise and you nailed it. For anyone who is curious about how our politics make everything worse for us federally, let me explain it in a short time.\n\nTrudeau as of the day of this video, March 3, 2025, is STILL the PM. He said he WOULD resign once a new leader was picked through a democratic process. Right now, he's basically just doing photo ops in Ukraine, UK and anywhere else on our dime because Parliament is prorogued and the party in power, Liberal, is having a leadership race. So, while he may resign within the week once that leadership race is done, he's still technically in charge.\n\nWhat makes that race and the PM's prorogation so bad is that we're in the middle of a crisis - several actually - caused in part directly by Trudeau and his Liberals (and the NDP supporting them). The latest would be Trump's tariffs starting today, March 4, 2025. Trudeau always disappears during a crisis, leaving us to fend for ourselves - (1) COVID, he was at the cottage using every excuse not to be accountable for anything or using unconstitutional powers to crush a protest he didn't know how to handle, (2) Chinese spies, he's ignoring our intelligence service, (3) federal worker strike, he's in NYC at some gala.... I could go on but there's a reason we're hurting so bad.\n\nWe have zero federal leadership, and a federal government that makes things worse for us with things like: over-regulation, subsidizing media to keep us misinformed, nerfing select natural resource sectors but favoring others (oil and gas suffer, while coal is fine... probably because we sell it to China, but I digress), letting criminal out of jail, uncontrolled immigration, passing policies like the FHSA that drive home prices higher and higher, and of course, more and more taxes. I could go on about the billions in taxpayers' money the government blows - it's like a black hole - or the fact that MPs keep getting raises - April 1 is their fifth since COVID - and most federal and government employees are all getting raises at a time when the rest of us are learning to get by with less and less because we're taxed so much and housing, groceries, etc. are so unaffordable.\n\nI have applied for US citizenship. I want to stick around to fix Canada, but I think it's too far gone. We have too many socialists/communists in power and they're not getting voted out any time soon. It's been fun Canada, it's been fun.

Born and Raised in Canada and there is another sort of comparison I'm starting to see more and more: We have the Stagnation of Japan and the the Personality of Britain. \n\nWhat I mean by that, the people in Canada, least the older ones (Boomers), got very conservative and never wanted to rock the boat and do new things. They had in their eyes a good thing. They had work and owned their home. None of them wanted to risk that so they kept things the same for the past 3 decades or so. Well a lot has changed around the world, and were pretty much the same old. Literally. In retirement. Whats the last interesting thing Canada has done since the Canadarm? \n\nI can think of a number of achievements the rest of the world has done, including many 3rd world countries. But Canada is the same old. This has become our Culture. We don't talk about new ideas. We witness them online, but we're not Creators. We are Consumers. And that is what I think happened to Britain after they got resettled after WWII. Britain is pretty dry. And so is Canada. Hence our forest fires!

Because the USD is the world reserve currency, money flows into the US. And this unparalleled slush fund is then used to fund venture capital which, then, leads to more innovation in a virtuous circle. The Cdn$ is not a reserve currency, however. Uninformed or wilfully ignorant US politicians point to the US deficit as some kind of problem when, in reality, it represents how the US exports its problems onto the rest of the world that uses the US dollar as an exchange mechanism. If the US dollar loses its exchange value for other countries then the US will be faced with the same issues as other western countries--such as Canada. This isn't to exonerate the failures of both Liberal and Conservative Canadian governments over the past 20 years. More to say that productivity is lower in Canada than the US because Canada's currency isn't the international mechanism of exchange . . .

Yup, Trudeau and the rest of the Liberals have really done a number on Canada.

Punjabis,gujrathis,malayalis,tamils ,haryanvis will effect rest don't care canada ??

LOL. Trump didn't force anything. Canada had already agreed to the measures under Biden. Trump got played and he passed it off as a win and then the rest of the USA got played.

It's only the Alberta premier that has stepped up security Alberta is the only one implementing drones and helicopters New dogs new border patrol agents it's only happening in Alberta she is the only one taking this seriously not only for Americans but for Albertans, we refused to bring in legalized drugs, it doesn't work very well just take a look at BC in Ontario seriously and Quebec Quebec is really bad as well they are really bad with policies and honestly I wish that Americans would look at Alberta and Saskatchewan as different than the rest of Canada because we are, we really might as well just be American honestly

So why is Canada allowing buses through without stopping and checking? There should be restrictions on which roads buses can travel. Canadian authorities stopping at the rest of the open roads.

I am a white Canadian have family and friends in the USA and I tried to move to the usa back in the early 2000's because I had a job could not do it because I was not allowed but it seems if you are other then white it is so much easier and everyone said I should go now because Trudeau is a dictator and that I am a law abiding Conservative that wants to leave Canada because our PM is nothing but a POS Liberal that is robbing the hard working real Canadians and cutting us off of having a good job because of DEI. They want blacks and browns to have all the high paying jobs while the rest of us get shafted into working for Min Wage or a little bit above while we get taxed to death. and if you look at all the homeless in Canada it's all white people and nothing but it's like the scumbag Liberals want the whites to live homeless or just scrapping to get by below the poverty line. It's really sad that this Country is going this way and wish Trump would come here and just clean out the liberals and Woke POS and send them to live on some abandon Island allong with the criminal Illegals because I am so sick of the BS. The Illegals are taking right over and they are the ones that are killing the people off with the drugs too.

I'm from Canada, and unfortunately, our liberal government is letting this happen. Believe me when I say the rest of Canada feels that way. We have no way of sharing our beliefs because this liberal government has shut our media down as well. Canada has been under socialism for a while now.

LEFTIST run Canada does nothing at all to prevent illegal border crossings for those heading south; but rest assured if you are a New Yorker trying to cross legally - these jackasses on the border will harass and block you from moving freely across.

Sky and land difference between Indian Bollywood movie and the ground reality peoples character, mindset it's really very funny to talk about racism by others towards Indian's when Indians are the top of the world number one in the name of racism brutally racist fascist around the world that is why now rest of the entire world hate Indian recently with India not good relationship with others country like Bangladesh Pakistan Myanmar Sri Lanka Nepal Bhutan Maldives Malaysia Singapore Dubai Qatar Saudi Arabia Kuwait Korea south Africa Australia Europe Canada UK USA.India needs to improve its civics sense, cleanliness hygene instead of hypocrisy blaming others very important need to improve self-respect nasty culture bathroom hygiene is prohibited

I am Québécois, and things here are quite different from the rest of Canada. For example, we have a law here that clearly forbids wearing religious signs when in a position of authority. Even a teacher, because they are a figure of authority for their students, could not wear the Roman collar, a cassock, a hijab, a niqab or anything else of the sort while in school. In the streets or any other public place, there is no problem at all. Everyone is welcomed to express their difference of culture or religion in the way they dress or in whatever other way. They are treated with the same respect and kindness as anywhere else in Canada. It is only that the separation of religion and state, and religion and authority is paramount here. Everybody is free and can express themsleves freely. But don't use that freedom to impose your views onto others. \nSo, when American judges are chosen for the federal court specifically because of their christian fundamentalist biases, it doesn't resonate well at all for me or the majority of Québécois. When the rights of the LGBTQ+ community are being questioned or jeopardised. Or a previous federal judgement like Roe v Wade is being overturned for religious reasons... it is a definite turn off for all of the Québec people to even remotely consider the United States as a destination to emigrate to (supposing that one would want to leave our beautiful country).\nMore and more, America, that used to be recognized as the land of the free, appears to be retrograde and restrictive and definitely not so free.

Good luck to you. The rest of us will work hard to make Canada great because people like you don't seem to want to.

So you are saying that if you live in the US you need to choose a place that is decent and the rest of the US sucks? So there is a caste system in the US and only who gets the good stuff? Do the poor, people of colour, non-christians, women, ill or elderly not deserve a decent place to live?\nThere are basic human rights in Canada safety and security is one of them\nIf you take care of the poorest and the weakest, making a safe place for them, by extension you make a safe place for everyone.

But you have to understand again in your Canada water video. Canada has a lot less population. That being taxes are higher in Canada but more land for your dollar. Less GDP do to a smaller number of people which also becomes a factor of Canada not making the 2% GDP to NATO. There's alot of factors on why Canada does what it does. It's not that we don't want to keep up with the rest of the world. It's that it's very hard to with such a small population.

Rest in peace Canada

Canada hosts the G7 in June. It would be hilarious if it were the G6, disinvite the USA, and have a huddle among the rest to strategize.

America does not need canada, canada needs America. Left and woke is over. Those are facts, the rest is irrelevant...

Millionaires and billionaires and the politicians they’ve bought have spent the last 50 years fighting to destroy wages, unions, educational system, acces to healthcare and fought to avoid taxes for themselves leaving ordinary Americans with the bill. Trump is continuing this but more openly and loudly than ever before for all to see. What we in the rest of the western world see as basic rights and essential services is in America seen as “communism” \n\nThe consequences of this is that Americans are suffering and causing a huge demand for drugs both prescription and illegal drugs.\n\nTariffing Mexico and Canada makes no f sense when the peoblem is America and Americans. For many years USA and Mexico have worked together to combat drugs and cartels, there is no need to put tariffs on them.\n\nDrugs will continue to enter USA as long as there is a demand for it, including Musk and Trump jr. The only ones who can fix this is America itself.

Canada and Mexico can trade with the rest of the world!

US is the biggest contributor to Nato at 16%. Canada is only at 1.5%. US should reduce their funding to 5%. Why do US taxpayers have to pay for the rest of the world.

Canada will be crawling back, rest assured.

I'm sure the Chinese, and the rest of the world actually would love to start trading more with Canada. I'm pretty sure there is nothing they can't supply that the US currently provides, and what would Trump hate more than a picture of Trudeau shaking hands with Xi.

Canada has access to two of the biggest oceans in the world, they should've been trading more with the rest of the world. EU and China each consume almost as much as than the US consumes and you have direct access to their market through oceans.

Trump should really look hard into the last time the US went to war with CANADA it really didn't end well for US. We are really only nice when treated with respect as we treat others. This does not mean we are a push over or that we can be bullied. My family has a lot of US friends and we are sure that don't want this either...but rest assured we will not back down....and we do not want to become part of your USA Trump by any means. You are a dictator and not even a very smart one.

This will hurt both sides, but at least Canada has options to mitigate the pain, like joining forces with the rest of the world that America is alienating. Remember, Canadians are nice except in hockey and (trade) wars. FAFO

BTW, its not about border security with Canada, just trade imbalance and the fact that Canadians expect America to pay for their defense when we are having trouble paying the interest on the debt from the money we borrow to give you and the rest of the world. Times are changing my friend. Time to find a different sugar daddy I guess.

Nonsense analysis! For Canada importing from the rest of the world will cost the same as tariff. So, practically, people in Canada pay the cost.

Yup hears a new flash last month 4000 millionaires left Canada for good they are closing biz place up for sale jobless grown when millionaires leave not only do they take there money they also take jobs lawyers doctors accounts were being chocked to death in taxes by irresponsible government in order to pad the number during november and Dec Gover says we created 65 ooo job when the private sector only add approximately 25 000 jobs the rest were government jobs during a recession the Gover should not be hiring more than the private sector bankruptcy are at all time hi and government wants ,6 percent more in property taxes biz are golfing at a huge rate no wonder why people are leaving you can't make any money period your being squeezed so hard that a two hundred dollar cheque from Ford does not even pay for a tank off gas carbon tax of 61 cents a litre is really out there news flash there is no shortage of gas or oil a barrel of oil is 71 dollars so why are we paying almost 8 dollars a gallon but the Gover sells a barrel to the USA for 35 bucks half the world price this is why many are leaving period over bloated government

Trump is starting a trade war with pretty much everyone else in the world. The US economy accounts for only 15% of the world's GDP, the rest of the world represents 85%. You have to be unbelievably arrogant to think you can win a trade war with China+Europe+Canada+Australia+South-America.

I don’t know about rest of the world but in the US alone, 700,000 Indians entered the country either illegally or overstayed their US visa just last year alone. In Canada, some Indian international students were discovered to have forged their education documents and now have been deported. Temporary workers are demanding permanent residency after work visa extensions have been cancelled due to housing shortages & increasing unemployment rate. \n\nIndian people in general are good workers but these protest aren’t helping and demanding they be allowed to stay while their documents are forged is upsetting Canadians. It unfortunately grouping everyone together.

You seemed to have conveniently missed a few more main points. We, Indians, put ourselves down.\n\nThey are;\n1) Out of 100 Indiands traveled abroad either for tourism or business, only 50 returns home, and the rest try to find jobs to live there.\n\n2) Many Indians forge documents or produce fake documents to get visas.\n\n3) Where the Indians go, they bring pan and pan parag items and spit sll over the place, especially the North Indians. South Indians are much better.\n\n4) We, Indians, can go any lower to get a job abroad at low pay. So, we put our own grades down.\n\nThere are numerous examples I know of. Let me cite a few below.\n\n1) In one of the Western countries, a few years ago, a real Punjabi brother and sister who staged fake a marriage, got a marriage certificate, and other documents only to migrate there. The government eventually found put and deported them.\n\n2) Canada deported a few hundred Gujarati students when the US border security found them not speaking in English. On investigation, it was found that they all came with fake IELTS certificate.\n\nThere are many incidents we get to witness the day after the day. So, we can't blame other countries. It's us who made us very cheap in the international market. Because of those Indians, the entire innocent, honest, and talented Indians community is affected.

Bilkul sahi plz if u r financially well dont come Canada or US its very hard to live summer is only for 3-4 months rest life is like\nGadhe ki tarah kaam or labour ??

please have a good rest! Canada is tough!

We were military so lived right across Canada, and I can tell you the worst province in Canada is Saskatchewan. I don't have enough thumbs to turn down. The people are Very unfriendly. Think there better than everyone else, and if you need compassion from the police you won't find it there. I was with a group of military wives once and we all had to say the best and worst posting we ever had. Everyone said Saskatchewan was the worst. Nova Scotia and B. C the best. . The rest of the country is great. The Maritime provinces are the friendliest. Retired widow now and live in a small town Ontario. It's very nice here.

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

Canadians are the MOST chill and accepting welcoming peaceful ppl known Worldwide for it throughout history! BUT!!!! We aren’t THAT polite when ppl come here from other countries and feel entitled to take full advantage of us for THEIR benefits with ZERO care or concern for the ppl who worked and paid into a system they’re now taking from without contributing a damn thing to it themselves!!! This isn’t EVERYONES right to have just because they demand it!!! Canada owes the rest of the world NOTHING!!!!

DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE STUPID AUDITOR. THEY ARE LIARS, JUST ANOTHER VERSION OF SCAMMERS, TRYING TO GAIN AUDIENCE ATTENTION SO THEY CAN EARN A LITTLE BIT OF SMALL COMPENSATION FROM YOUTUBE. THIS INDIVIDUAL HIGHLY EXAGGERATES THE FACTS ABOUT CANADA. \n\nYES, IT IS EXPENSIVE RIGHT NOW, BUT IT’S EXPENSIVE ANYWHERE IN OTHER PRODUCTIVE BIG CITIES AROUND THE WORLD. YOU NEED TO COMPARE MORTGAGE AND RENT IN CANADA WITH OTHER MAJOR CITIES. IF CANADA MAINTAINED LOW PRICES FOR RENT AND MORTGAGE, GUESS WHAT WOULD HAPPEN? EVERYONE IN THE WORLD WOULD WANT TO RELOCATE HERE, AND THE COUNTRY WOULD RUN OUT OF RESOURCES. SO, YOU CAN’T CLAIM CANADA HAS HIGH PRICES WITHOUT COMPARING IT TO OTHER GLOBAL CITIES. \n\nI UNDERSTAND IT’S CHEAPER IN SOME ASIAN COUNTRIES, BUT YOU CANNOT COMPARE THE EAST WITH THE WEST – THEY’RE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STRUCTURES, SYSTEMS, AND WORLDS. IT’S MORE COMPREHENSIBLE AND SUCCESSFUL TO LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHERE YOU CAN COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY. I AM DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED BY THIS INDIVIDUAL AND HIS EXAGGERATED LIES, COMPOSED TO ATTRACT AUDIENCE ATTENTION. DO NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU HEAR ABOUT CANADA. \n\nCANADA IS A WONDERFUL, POWERFUL COUNTRY WITH STRONG HUMAN RIGHTS. IT WON’T BE EASY AT THE BEGINNING, WHETHER YOU’RE ALONE OR WITH FAMILY TO RELOCATE HERE – IT IS VERY DIFFICULT, AND I CANNOT STRESS THAT ENOUGH. BUT IF YOU PUT IN THE GOOD WORK, DEDICATION, AND WILLINGNESS, YOU WILL SUCCEED AND BUILD A BETTER LIFE IN THE LONG RUN. \n\nOH, CANADA, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART, AND I HOPE YOU CONTINUE TO EMBRACE VULNERABLE INDIVIDUALS LOOKING FOR A BETTER LIFE. \n\nOH I DO NEED TO MENTION THE BRUTAL WEATHER WE FACE HERE. BUT PEOPLE MUST UNDERSTAND, YOU’RE MOVING FAR NORTH ON THE PLANET. THE WEATHER USED TO BE MUCH WORSE, BUT DUE TO CLIMATE CHANGE, IT’S A BIT WARMER THESE DAYS, WHICH IS SCARY. IF THAT WARMTH CONTINUES, THE REST OF THE WORLD WILL SUFFER FROM MAJOR CLIMATE IMPACTS.

Looking at the numbers, Canada looked depressingly racist well into the 60s when almost all immigration was from Europe... then looking at the comments, it leaves me wondering if a lot of Canadians are still just as racist, they just can't keep the rest of the world out anymore.

Tyler there are 600 mass shootings in the U.S each year which is almost 2 a day per average and while they do not all take place in schools, how many mass shootings are tolerable? As long as Americans like yourself dismiss all the data to the contrary the U.S will continue to have the tragedies it does, When you look up mass shootings which is where there are more than 2 victims per incident you'll find Canada doesn't even register in those statistics because where the U.S has 600 mass shootings a year Canada hasn't had 600 in its last 100 years. So that is why Canadians mention school shootings as a reason, because the potential is real for it to happen. It is preventable tragedy but Americans as a whole need to want that change, until it does the rest of the world will always bring up gun violence and school shootings when the U.S is in the discussion. The U.S is great but it could be better. Stay blessed ??

You know it's really bad when immigrants complain about immigrants . Canada is doomed by greed , so is the rest of the planet .
