🇨🇦 I disagree with premise that only "high skill" immigrants should come. Economies need ALL types of workers & those low skill jobs have to be done by someone. According to free trade economics, open borders would maximize world GDP. As for housing market, why not let housing be more mobile & smaller, tiny homes.

Isn't Trudeau the guy who wore Black Face, froze his citizens bank accounts, and made it a crime if you misgender someone? Anybody? Hello?

Leadership and Statesmanship 101 - Someone show this to donald (this is how it's done)

Gee…what a surprise! ….NOT! \nThe most toxic person in the world who LOVES to create chaos & division has stirred up a bees nest in countries all around the world. That’s what Trump does. Chaos, division, hard feelings & bitterness are his forté. \nThat’s the leader America has chosen over someone with common sense, intelligence, & who would have tried to unite the American ppl & create an economy that would be stable & help the majority of Americans because Kamala IS like the majority of Americans. She understands the struggle of trying to making a living when you’re not born into wealth like Trump was.\nHe can’t relate to the struggles of the average American family trying to earn enough to provide for their families. He’s never known that struggle. \nAnd why should he care if he causes ppl on both sides of the border to lose jobs, & consequently lose their homes? He’s rich. He can afford the higher costs of everything in both countries that he is initiating. He chose this trade war because he wants to take over Canada. \nWhat is wrong with Americans who thought voting him in AGAIN was a great idea over the common sense & economic stability Kamala Harris offered? He TOLD you he was going to do this. \nYou ppl who voted for him KNEW his past history. He’s a proven liar, a cheat, a fraud, a scammer, a sexist, a predator of vulnerable women, & a convicted felon..\nAnd more than anything else, he’s a BULLY! He uses his words with his bull horn & public media to speak against anyone who opposes him to try to subtly motivate his MAGA hounds to attack the ppl & their families that actually tell the truth about him. And then he steps aside & waits for his minions to respond & acts totally innocent as if he is not responsible because he did not directly tell them to go after the ppl he very purposely speaks hostile about. WAKE UP! He IS responsible because he knows very well his words have power to influence ppl to take action. \nAnd too many cowards in the Supreme Court & Republican party including his own VP Mike Pence were all too afraid to speak up against him. \nIf the majority of Americans want such a toxic person for leader, that’s America’s poor choice but Canada wants NO PART in his BS.\nHands off Canada because we WILL stand united & will support our governments efforts & the efforts of other Canadians to withstand against Trump’s bullying tactics.\nBUY CANADIAN!

There should be someone who will put Trump in his place. He will destroy USA. I personally support Canada and know how much is difficult to struggle for your country in tough times. Love from Armenia❤️

I wish someone would also offer a word of support for China, which has been enduring the United States' bullying for at least eight years...

America, for the sake of sanity, please please PLEASE VOTE \n\n....and please vote for someone with morals next time!

Trump also caused China to cut the flow of Rare Earth Minerals to the US which lead to the attempt to extort Ukraine of its natural resources. Similar situation , failure to recognize that China is supplying the raw materials driving the surge in technical advancement. To then try to deny the product of that raw material supply, aka cutting edge Chips.. back to China, is moronic. In Trumps world a Win/Win is a sign of weakness...except now China cut off the US from supply and there is no replacement.... Annnnnnnnd so the logical move is to pick other things being supplied and do the same to Canada..... when Canada pulls the plug on supply, the result will be the same. EVERYONE worldwide should take note and begin cutting supplies to the US and ceasing dependance on US manufacturers in favor of those with governments who will accept Mutually beneficial relationships as what they are...a Win/Win. China and Canada should deepen ties. Ukraine is better off working with Russia than allowing itself to be extorted. Everyone else should distance themselves from the US and honestly this damage Trump is doing will take decades to undo. The US is not reliable so long as they fail recognize international law and fair trade when it doesnt suit them... this is good for noone, but it will be worst on the US. Thats how WW2 started... Tariffs collapsed the German economy. Caused the Great depression. Germany and its people were forced into a corner. This is what Trump and his masters are trying to do. Starting WW3 is on someones agenda and whomever that is is also pulling Trumps strings. Bad times ahead

My heart is sick, Americans have become so stupid because of the Internet because of all the Facebook and all the other stupid crap algorithms that feed them nothing but lies. None of them read books anymore. Everyone’s in here is just looking to Fuck someone literally and figuratively sorry sorry world America has always been a pretty shitty place but now we finally taken the mask completely off.

Well done Trudeau. Seems everyone is telling these two American clowns plus their side kicks that they keep telling lies. Someone isn't telling the truth Donny.

Bien joué. At the very least, Monsieur Trudeau looks like the leader of a nation. The same can't be said for someone in outdated, baggy suits, button undone, tie too long, glowing like a sultana, topped off by a tacky baseb@ll cap.

Donald has more allegiance to Putin, a well known dictator, murderer and war criminal, than his 'closest' allies across the world. JD Vance is a political gangster who undermines and bullies people, someone who is quite frankly, completely out of their depth and incompetent, What a shambles America is right now, and I thought the UK was in bad shape. The American people should be very ashamed.

Yep Trudeau he only understands one syllable words. Saying big things gor his attention. The rest someone else will have to show Donald a comic book sketch.

Canada responding puts Canada in a worse position. \n Canada not helping in the fight against fentanyl is obviously false, that being said the mass Immigration policy of Justen trued has made it easy for cartels' to smuggle in narcotics, not only that but the immigrants cause waves of crime, rippling from generation to generation. which hurts Canadians quite a bit. Immigration from the US to Canada would not hurt Canadians as much as from all the third world countries that they currently have their immigration system setup to accept. \nCanada's official statistics for narcotics coming in cannot be trusted. there is the fact that when someone is caught with narcotics they don't actually get to bring in those drugs. \nCanada's border is also entirely bypassed by plane so it doesn't matter how strong they make their borders.\nthe best response to the tariffs would be to remove all those god awful restrictions put in place on Canadian enterprise.

Did someone say that _The Orange Menace_ is *smart!?*\nCanadians are at times *too* polite. Criminals such as those put in power in the US will see this as *weakness.*\n\nPam Tom's wife

What makes Donald Trump think Canada would want any part of this shit storm current Trump‘s first term the Canadian immigration website crashed as people were trying to be out of here. Canada definitely has more sensible leadership why our country is led by a grifter who has turned a lot of sensible and educated Americans into zombies or should I say he’s like the big bully on the playground someone should’ve told Donald Trump that you get more flies with honey than vinegar

The US is fast turning into an oligarchy. So, please someone arrange to export democracy into the US for a change.

With what people are paying for rent , grocery , etc… here in Canada?\nYou’re doing the same to your own people ?\nDon’t let this idiots fool you Canadians….they are just pissed someone doing it back to them.

Why is your President alienating you from the rest of the world? I don’t know if he’s smart enough to have nefarious intentions or someone else is pulling the strings, but this won’t end well economically or for US national security.

Brilliant, someone who can ORATE, not just spout BS!

If someone strikes you… Fight back doubly!

Donald we did big things. .. big things check the word big things because someone can’t use complex words

It's all a script at the top. I mean, give me a break. It's so obvious. \nThis is all written by someone else. They just act it out.

As someone also recently abandoned by the US (albeit in a much more serious way, as a European) I have full solidarity with our Canadian friends. ❤

This is coming from someone that let Vancouver go to shit.

Unfortunately those that did not vote Trump will be collateral damage but when someone is too proud and arrogant you can’t tell them anything… they have to be humbled by their choices... One thing I learned is ppl have to burn to learn in the country. It’s best for all Trump voter to feel the impact of the choice they made since they hate facts let them experience the truth.

Like someone said, it sounds like someone has a *very very high and strange leverage explaining why one President is siding with someone so much regardless the gravity of consequences..

I do not blame Canada from reacting one bit. Wish we had someone who stands up for & defends our country like Justin Trudeau does for Canada. dumb donald has put this country in great danger. ??

Finally someone telling the truth

Canada as well as Mexico and China will and must fight back! I don't care so much about china, but Mexico and Canada have been our best trading partners and friends and now we have insulted them. We will deserve what we get because we have elected the most stupid president in the history of the United States. Be prepared to pay higher prices all of those of you who voted for this idiot president Trump. Unfortunately the rest of us who were smart and voted for someone else will have to be punished too!

We love America and Americans, but if someone attacks Canadian sovereignty, we will fight back. If the Canadian government invites China to invest in Technology, Agriculture, Automotive, and Oil, Canada will emerge as a different, independent, and prosperous nation. This investment could create thousands of jobs, lower EV and fuel costs, generate significant tax revenue, and strengthen the economy, as Chinese EVs are more affordable than U.S. counterparts. Ultimately, lower energy costs would decrease the cost of living and boost Canadians' spending power, attracting foreign investors to Canada.

I wish the American people would stand up to the bully... someone please help us get rid of the clowns sitting in The Whitehouse!

It's fresh to see a genuine display of leadership rather than the usual outlandish tomfoolery. Kudos for the red maple leaf.\nYou're quite lucky to have someone in charge that can actually construct more than one coherent meaningful sentence per speech.

Ooh 5 eyes….ooh…a PM or a joker…someone remind him he can talk only to Canadians who now don’t like him either. Unsure why he wants to talk to Americans that’s something Trump will take care of

Why can't we Americans elect someone who is sane and competent?

trudeau call Putin a dictator, hey truedau your a dictator making canadfians pay more tax than USA and you buy anew 5M house in costa rica, your hyprocite, typicl liberal nonesense, why do you only pay 1% tax and your ceo shits and someone making minium wage pay 15%, you ##@@#@, GET RID of truedau, lock him uup next to the illegals migarnts he lets in the country and see if he lasts 1 day

I was asking someone i have applied working holiday visa , can i apply caregivers and they yes. Now i have my work permit , can I still apply caregivers?

I stand with Canada. Do what you have to do. Someone needs to put the bully in his place. We will ride this out together.

Someone take out Trump of the White House this man is no right on the head

Neither I am a fan of President Trump nor his supporter. \nJust want to say this, if Trump's implemented tariff is backfiring economically, why would someone choose the same path for his own people??

Can someone ask Trump why he's acting as if he was a Russian asset?

Someone will need to stop this madness from reigning! Well done Mr President

As a US citizen who has lived within 5 miles of the Canadian border, worked for Canadian employers, and had many Canadian friends, I have always known them to be quietly strong people. This just strengthens my conviction. I am so glad SOMEONE will stand up to the tyrant who has stolen my nation.

Those who call someone a Dictator is the Dictator.

Pls don't get me wrong. I love my president right or wrong. But Trudeau makes a very compelling point. This is not the smartest thing to be doing with these tariffs. Someone pls correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the reason President Trump brought the imposition of tariffs on Canada and Mexico in the 1st place was for them to do more about stopping the flow of Phentenol (excuse if spelling is wrong) into our country. I thought both countries have stepped up to do just that already. No? If so then why continue with this stupidness?

Someone should do a split screen of Trump giving a speech vs any other world leader giving a speech. I don't know how any can vote for this orange buffoon.

look someone was able to get a Carney/Harris endorsement ..dont even tell me she was vp..this is the level of fake politics..this pos is an embarrassment to Canada!!

Can someone tell the Oompa Loompa that this is the way a leader talks.

It's important to remember that it's not kind or respectful to make fun of someone for their appearance or cultural practices.1st you have to know that USA is 65 $ billion Trade Deficit with Canada Do you know how it will effect USA citizen cost will increase on average person Even i am not USA Citizen or even i didn't visited USA at present my country have trade Deficit many countries in my country very hard to live in India

Please Canada PLEASE KNOW we are NOT being represented by by that orange, drunk party clown with many known and unknown mental problems. \nthe PEOPLE does NOT side with him and we are TRAPPED HERE on all sides. What can we do to get another country/countries to step in and HELP US!!!! PLEASE!! I BEG OF YOU!\nWe are watching the world around us burn and we. Need. HELP! \n \n? PLEASE PLEASE HELP! SOMEONE!!! ?
