Canada and the US used to share a warm relationship. Living close to Canada, our girls hockey teams frequently play the Canadian girls. Over the past 5+ years, the behavior of the Canadian girls changed from competitive, but decent, to vicious, laced with insults and injury. We no longer want to play them because you can predict a concussion suffered every fifth game or so. Trump's unfriendly actions will be met with equally unfriendly actions from Canada to the detriment of both.

Americans are a great people but they are being lead by a bully. I was with trump until now but bullying a close friend and ally like Canada is not the American way

A very good decision, so companies can no longer produce with cheap labor in Mexico and Canada and then resell expensively in the USA. Many companies will close their factories there and come to the USA.

Hmm What does Canada have that USA wants or needs ( Nothing) I say close the boarder's if you have the need to visit work whatever You need a Visa

I wonder what did Canada do to Trump businesses? Cause that’s the real reason. Maybe his hotels in Canada were closed

Canada needs to cut power to the United States and close the St. Lawrence Seaway to American shipping immediately. Period.

Why doesn't Canada and Mexico just close their borders and stop drug traffickers? Everyone wants to bag on Trump like fools when this is a easy doable request.

Canada and Mexico should close the border to everything going north and south, and south and north.

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

CANADA SHOULD AND MUST CLOSE THE DOORS... IF THIS GOUVERNEMENT CONTINUES TO BRING MORE IMMIGRANTS CANADA WILL BE WORST THAN INDIA... PLEAS DO SOMETHING BEFORE IT'S TO LATE... ??????????????????????

Canada needs to close the borders and do the same.

Beautiful day ! Now come and close Canadas

CANADA CLOSE YOUR BORDERS!!!!!!

That's ok; Americans can just buy all of their coffee from Canadians at lower price!? Canada already sells America close to 600 million worth of coffee a year. Welcome to MAGAs world? doesn’t it make sense?

CANADA IS CLOSED

Thousands of illegal Indians from Canada are closing to the IS illegally

2000 ONLY??? THEY HAVE CLOSE TO A MILLION ILLEGAL INDIANS HERE IN CANADA …AND SUCKING TAX PAYERS HARD EARNED TAXES…ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

Many American companies are already in the process of closing out in Canada and heading back to USA .\nWhat does that mean? It is clear that annexing Canada by USA , is just a matter of few weeks before it happens.

Canada needs to close the borders and do the same. There are 4.9 mil temporary immigrants in Canada. They need to go home and let Canada get back on its feet after Pierre becomes Prime Minister.

If the government's worried about maintaining the same service standard maybe they should stop letting 500K people in every year. IMO, the border should be CLOSED until Canada gets a handle on the shortage of affordable housing and the pricing of housing in general comes back down to reality. Immigrants are causing rents and house prices to skyrocket because the demand is so high and the supply is so low.

Close canada border too

canada is closed

Definitely fair stop it day one not raisist but rather a reset. These folks need to realize the fast lane is closed now you will have to do it like everyone else is waiting years and longer. Mexicans force the jobs to be cheap being the rates down way down not just in America but in Canada making the Americans and Canadians homeless job less the last 10 years was a big blow to so many people but no one is talking about it. Deport reset restructure point blank.

Well the rejection rate is good becz we dont need foreign country they need us \nModi ji is working 25 hours in the days super hard \nWhy do we need usa canada uk ... Ate waiting for people likes us... And modi has increased so many jobs as he promised 2 crore jobs\nAll the billionaire are saying this is india season and witness the future \nI feel modi ji should close down all the embassy and open there tax office and ration shop and addhar centre \nAnd bjp it cell office too

Great News\nStay in India Canada and US are closed

There are over 260 visa only colleges in Canada and about 200 in Australia,these colleges are of no use and over lakhs of students come here every year,why the government doesn't take action on it and close these universities,and why does they treat the illegal visa immigrants and skilled immigrant like engineers and doctors the same

Diversity of newcomers made this country good, but now it is just concentrated. Toronto Union station was filled with Indians crossing the track like this is New Delhi..., like they brought their chaos straight into another country. None of us other immigrants from diff nations have brought this kind of behavior without adapting.\n\nAnd for the sake of goodness, if one needs to wear so many layers and walk around the closed space of malls.... wearing deodorant is like common sense and is the basic etiquette for public life in Canada. If you choose to move and live a better life elsewhere, then change your ways. Or else what is the difference of living in Canada from India.

This is disturbing, Canada is becoming Canaidiana. The door of immigration from India needs to be closed down. Other Canadians are sick and tired of living in Punjab, instead of living in Canada.

Canada needs to close its borders to everyone or this country is doomed. No asylum no nothing look elsewhere. This country is on the verge of complete collapse, no more immigration of any kind and every Engle person recklessly let in by the Trudeau government needs to be sent back home.

Brampton got big Punjabi Christian population also. They are good people. I heard that there are close to 100,000 people attending Sunday church service. Indian community in Canada has a big Christian population also especially from the southern province of Kerala. They are mostly in Mississauga, Scarborough and London, Ontario. There is a Roman Catholic diocese in Mississauga for Catholics from India. And Punjabi Christians are mostly Protestant believers.

Unfortunately the systems in Canada is so weak that each asylum case will take 1-2 years to close.

The majority of Canadians are sick and tired of the amounts of Indians coming to Canada committing crimes. As a Black Canadian womam born and raised, l never seen anything like this in my whole 60 years of life. We cannot find affordable housing, they come over here wanting to be Canadian citizens, at the same time abusing the resources meanwhile, they go across the border to exploit the system. Immigration needs to close it doors to certain countries. Some Indians people come over here, and think they are still in India. They used Black people as a scapegoat, they are racist towards Black people, they think they are white, they don't consider themselves as colored.

Canada was the best country in the world . Trudeau has destroyed Canada and wrecked it beyond belief. Canada has an election this year, and Trudeau is done. Canadians hate the man . Pierre Poilievre will be the next Prime Minister of Canada, and he has promised to fix this mess . Close the borders and track down the elegals and deport them. And all these international students who refuse to leave they are going to be forcefully removed if they don't leave on their own. Canada is done with this crap .

Mr Homan is absolutely correct. Our boarders need to be protected, closed permanently! I am tired of our taxpayers money supporting these illegal immigrants. You see officers helping these individuals with their luggage while coming illegally into Canada.

Temporary does not mean permanent. Canada can not support this mass immigration crisis. Canadians are suffering from the open floodgates. It's about time the doors close

Canada is CLOSED

Western countries should stop taken students from Asia , they have different culture the USA and Canada need to close the over population of Indian all I see across the USA are Indian nationals I don’t like them

Before America close border canada should stop giving visa to third world countries.

CANADAS CLOSED ... GO HOME!!!

I would be much more likely to move to holland, or New Zealand if I ever moved. Maybe even Germany. Absolutely never the states ? even tho I think OF the places to live in the states, Santa Cruz , Vermont, Seattle , Portland or near by, or maybe even Maine if they weee less expensive and more diverse Lolol might be places I’d be less averse to I guess but unfortunately they’re all still a part of the states as a whole so never and no thanks. ?. \nOh or maybe some of the Canadian border states areas that are very close and have similar beautiful geography with lots of cottage country like environment and run across the border distance to O Canada ??? is that cheating ?

Close the borders and deport, deport, deport...Canada is full!!!

We are indian like cockroach ? , we will come from anywhere , we could live everywhere and we will plant our baby elsewhere apart from India...if u close Mexico border , we will come from Canada border ..if u close Canada border ...we will come in thru wakanda border or thru your house drain border .....U BETTER WATCH U BETTER NOT CRY ..CAUSING WERE INDIAN COMING TO TOWN ??

Mr. Trump has said his government will seize their US assets. That alone should curb illegally entering the US. The incoming President isn’t kidding. They will be rounded up and sent home. It’s only a matter of time before Canada closes its borders and expels illegals also. They’d be better off returning home and applying through the proper channels than to be deported and banned from returning.

In Canada now Canadians are so angry at Indians coming here on fraudulent papers, conducting themselves like savages without any morals or standards. Turning every restaurant they work at into a biohazard public health danger. It's absolutely sick and these new Indians are majorly racist towards white people. Indians are being beat in the streets now on a daily basis. Canadians are starting to fight back and send a message. Do not come to Canada. There is no affordable housing available for anyone.! There are no doctors for the majority of the population now. Hospitals are forced to close. Many people both native Canadians and new immigrants are forced to become homeless because of an overwhelming number of Indians flooding into Canada. There will be a lot of murders over the next few years in Canada. People are desperate and only trying to survive in their own native country.

Not imploding yet. NO housing crash yet, not even close... Typical governments = Years creating the problems , and years pretending to fix the problems. $....sick. STOP all immigration NOW, for years to come. Too late, all lies, the damage is done. And it did not start under Turdo... For over 100 years home prices went up and down in price properly, 2, 3, 4 % with inflation, job raises....reasonable, slight increases....sometimes minor decreases... all fair and affordable. Starting around the year 2000, prices started to spike up, 25, 50, 100, 200, 300% while interest rates went to almost 0. Same with rent price increases.....crazy prices over the last 10 years....25, 50, over 100% price increases......Over 20 years of kaos. And now look at the mess you greedy government parasites, unions, bankers have created. Mass immigration, major government growth - spending – debt – control..., super low interest rates, mass immigration = crazy housing, rental prices......poor Canada, what a mess created by all you greedy governments, all political parties.....The only way housing prices get back to where they should be is a crash...bring it on.....the sooner the better. Right now, it’s all grossly overvalued. STOP all immigration NOW. Bring on the crash.

I immigrated to Canada in 1981 because I married a Canadian I should say French Canadian girl and it was just a better place for her to continue on with her background. We relocated to Ottawa which is bilingual and made it very easy for both of us to assimilate together. I moved back to the USA in 2006 to help my sick brother and move back again to Canada in 2016. I came back for many reasons. The political Edge in the united states, the guns out of control, the increased crime rate daily, in just too many people everywhere. Now I was living in the Tampa Bay area and a lot of the people come from out of state and out of country especially in the winter to spend their cold months in the sunshine. Some things I miss in the United States comes usually down to the cost of living. Unless you get sick. And I miss living by the Gulf of Mexico. Except during hurricane season. I prefer living in Canada only because it's a slower easier paced social environment. It has nowhere near the political stress that the United States has where it can almost be violent. Actually, where it has been violent. Revisit January 6th. Out of control guns with hot-headed men mostly can force you out as well and back to Canada. Canada's social structure and environment supersedes the United States tenfold. And of course as we get older, Healthcare is a priority. I'm thankful there's a place like Canada close to where I was born or I can spend the rest of my life enjoying it as opposed to looking over my shoulder constantly. I also find that Canadians have a huge appreciation of warm months. So many people are outside even when they are eating at restaurants. Because of the warmer months are so short, Canadians really take advantage of enjoying it and those months are never taken for granted. Winters in Ontario, like here in Ottawa, can be very cold once January and February come around. But once you make it into the middle of march, you can almost smell spring in the air and somewhere on the way. But there are those dreaded 8 weeks of oh my God ?

What Canada and Mexico should do is close the border to America if they do that then watch the economy suffering and I bet you Donald Trump or back pedal and change his mind?

The problem of Canada is not migration or international students. International students bring millions of dollars to the country. They pay fees 3 times higher than local students. The problem is the economy, provinces, municipalities, private sector and professional newcomers are unable to build houses, apartments and provide services for more than 1 million of newcomers per year. The economy is completely closed to international companies, engineers, doctors. There are big monopolies who regulate and rule the market in association with a WOKE socialist government. This is why Canada doesn’t grow and isn’t able to provide services. It’s more like a third world country , banana republic or failed state.

I find people leaving Canada came, got a passport and moved home but keep that passport close. Or you have the money to leave. How many want to leave their country but don’t have the money. India is dirt cheap as a foreigner but as an Indian wow it’s expensive.

Immigration to Canada and the USA is finished. Due to corrupt govts, illegal immigrants were allowed to enter these two nations. New govts are coming to power and all borders will be closed. Canada and the USA are badly damaged and must heal.
