Fix the 200 billion dollar trade deficits

As an American, I hate that Trump has tanked foreign relations. I hope we can come to an agreement which gives all nations money, not just Americans. Fight for your nation guys we will try to fix ours.

Canadian here (NS): Not the biggest Trudeau fan the last couple years.. buuuut he is hands down more a world class leader of his country than trump every could be right now or ever in the future now. What a shitshow. Trudeau REITERATED the wall street journal's words.. dont spin it like trudeau just name called him out of the blue in the hopes to insite something else. Look INWARD (cough*trump*) and fix your shit. Remember these days my american friends.

Fix your problems with drug addiction in America before you blame the other countries

Sings great but no Trudy you haven’t done big things and don’t get to take credit for the good men that came before you. Good job taking the opportunity given here however I see another limp D trying to save his embarrassing career. But good for you getting all these gullible people to buy it. Half truths do not make the truth whole. 75 years of industrial decline aren’t getting fixed with friendly assurances and happy trade deals. During WW2 everyone lived on food rations, turned in all metals, kept their old cars running etc… and y’all are upset because inflation means you have to make some tough choices? I’m ashamed of every American that refuses to try something new since the last 50 years of the same old back and forth is what got us here in the first place. Obstruction and diversion. Division. Both parties are responsible. If Donald wants to destroy the faith of his faithful… let him. But going radical against half the country’s people isn’t going to end well for anyone. We should stop giving the rich all the cards.

Prime Minister, who formerly announced resignation because his country has lost confidence in him stands up and tries to act tough in news briefing. - Fixed that video title for you

Thank you but sometimes you just can't fix stupidity, i said what I said ?

Sadly this can all be fixed, just rise up and impeach Trump again. Attacking your friends and allies is morally corrupt, but it’s not surprising when watching all the Trump administrations rhetoric on everything else they are tearing down and risking and costing our US friends on all fronts. As a Canadian, I will not be going back to the US until this President and this disgusting rhetoric is gone.

As an American I stand with Canada. Don't let Trump dictate what Canada does, stick it to his ass. He won't be president forever and I feel bad for our next president that person is going have alot to fix and put back in place.

I am a true Patriot of Canada, but we have been living on boral time when it comes to our defense systems, including the borders. And we have depended on the U S far too long, and for that I blame the Canadian government. The Trudeau/liberals said they were going to fix it well here we are unprepared now here we are 10 years later. We need an election right now. Canadians cannot afford to wait any longer, the people need to pick the time, and that's now.

Good speech. Now let’s also look at what has gone on last 9 years in Canada. Mr. Trudeau It was dumb to divide the provinces. It was dumb for you to shut down every project that Alberta had to work with other provinces and trade with other parts of the world. It was dumb for you to continually suck up to Quebec while ignoring the rest of the country. The corruption we know of that your party created such as We Charity and Arrivecan app is just the tip of the iceberg of billions of dollars you have robbed from Canadian taxpayers that could have fixed health care and provided much needed tax relief to all Canadians. While you are speaking about dumb I pray that Canadians realize and understand what the Liberal and NDP parties have done to our country the last 9 years and vote your party out. Canadians need to stop being dumb with who we have in power. We cannot keep going like this.

Easy fix. Change the law that only individuals (no corporations) can legally own single family homes. Revise the building codes and throw out everything thats not putting someones life in danger. No taxes for the first 250k of personal income in your life.

Wow, articulate strong talk, no lies, no propaganda, no bluster, none of the total and complete unrelenting bullshit we have endure on a daily basis from the sociopathic delusional asshole that currently occupies the White House. It should be no surprise that our leadership chooses to blame all of our problems on someone else, because that's exactly what they do every day. We have a drug problem, it's because of Canada and Mexico. We have an immigration problem, likewise Mexico and Canada. We have a deficit problem, that's because of the EU and NATO. Our problem is our government, specifically Republicans who won't accept the simple truth: you want to solve problems you have be disciplined and smart. You have to spend money to fix your problems instead of blaming some else and trying to get them to pay for it. You pay to solve your problems instead of giving huge tax cuts to people who don't need them. You stop lying to your people. You want to change the trade imbalance? Build products that other countries want at a price that makes sense. The EU has no laws that prevent American car manufacturers from selling their cars in Europe. American car companies make shitty cars. They make cars that are too big, that don't make sense for European where streets can be very small and gas is very expensive. The US manufacturers don't make a single small car in thos country that can compete with European cars. US agricultural products are laced with poisonous chemicals that are outlawed in the EU because they kill people. Our governmeent doesn't give a shit about that because to grow healthy food means you have to cut profits, almighty dollars, instead of grow things that the rest of the world will accept. We have an idiot for president who thinks he knows more than anyone else and an idiot party that won't tell him the truth. This is going to cost us big time. We are going into recession, probably a long one because we don't have real leaders and the president on his best day is nothing more than a reality TV personality, and not a very entertaining one at that.

Unfortunately this is what Trump does. Pretend there’s a problem, cause chaos in an attempt to ‘fix’ it, then claim he’s fixed it without doing anything meaningful and just backpedaling to the way things were. \n\nIt’s worked domestically because his voter base is in a media bubble. But internationally, it’s just foolishness.

Trump is turning America into a fascist government destroying the middle an lower class.The tariffs will starve alot of Americans, cutting all programs that help people will be devastating. Elections dont matter anymore Musk an starlink has fixed that. His goal is to mirror Russia an all fascist governments. He's turning Russia enemies into US enemies.

Trudy you are the reason you destroyed our country, you make Trump mad in many ways, even last week Trudy we don’t like even see your face Trudy you put under 64 billon, open the Govt. your own liberal Govt. wanted you to out, but you no hiding shut the Govt. running & running now you giving your garbage speech to Trump, you just barking to mountains no body is listening to your garbage , you simply get out we will fix the problem. Why Trudy just bullshit talking.

I hope the world clearly see that many of us Americans feel like we’re being held hostage by a rogue government.\n\nWe stand behind anyone who can either bring it to its senses, fix it, or take us as refugees. Things are growing increasingly dire… and Republican voters are cheering it on.

Inflation is to the roof, Make food and housing affordable, please people just help impeach him, he is golfing while the american people are struggling everyday.... He is just trying to pass stupid laws that keep getting blocked by courts, Come on Trump supporters try helping fix it by calling your local office and impeach him, I bet anyone else is better than Trump, we know the country needs changes but we are still the biggest economy of the world the richest country, Why do we have to feel like is normal not to have affordable food and housing?? The basics of life... All the immigrants are gone, They even left by their own will, and Some Americans left to other countries, Mexico, Europe, Asia..... What do you guys want?? Having an empty country once was the biggest economy of the world?? Is just crazy even a blind person can see he is destroying the whole country..... He is not even a good business person we all know he didn't payed taxes, he went bankrupt so many times he knows how to scam people, Saying the USA government doesn't work because he feels like it, Just travel people so you can see the difference between usa government and other governments around the world........

Dear Justin Trudeau,\n\nYou and your party done everything to destroyed Canada. Guess what ? It is all your fault. Resign asap. We need a change. I hope Pierre will be able to fix up your issues.

Why are we not seeing more push back from American citizens? You clearly gave the power to a gangster, who's in bed with Putin. Are you gonna fix your mess or not? \nFrom the outside it seems that Bernie Sanders is the only one with a brain over there. The rest is just waiting for WW3 to unfold, and letting the billionaires run their country. \n\nYou're pathetic. Wake the f#** up please!

While I acknowledge that the way Trump and Vance addressed Zelensky could have been more diplomatic, as an American , I cannot justify allocating $360 billion of our tax funds towards resolving another counties war—especially when only half of that amount has been accounted for, and the other half remains untracked. Let that point sink in! The US is currently in $33 Trillion dolars in debt yet giving away money like candy . No other country is contributing money like we are . We simply do not have the resources to continue doing that . Our financial situation is worsening as we print more money to allocate toward other countries. Furthermore, 7% of the $33 trillion of the US debt is owed by other countries , including China . Our funds need to be utilized for our own benefit before being given away. We have veterans on the streets, the elderly suffering because SS isn't covering their basic needs , school system thatvis failing , health insurance unaffordable by most. We need to fix our own issues. We need to feed our own kids before we feed the neighbors, not the other way around.

Its time for you americans to fix your stuff. The longer you let this go on, the worse its going to get. I thought you folks were both free and brave?

Too little too late... Trudeau ran this country in the ground. He needs to go away and let a real politician fix it

I stand with Canadian people but all these career politicians doing business as usual in no longer working. Simply fix the issues and there won’t be tariffs.

canadian here: y'all better fix your house. when we see american hang-wringing and then shoulder-shrugging, we see the enablers and those on the sideline, also part of the problem.

He's correct, and the GOP should reply this over and over until they get it. Also, voters, these are politicians that we pay to represent our will, not DJT. Lets fix our govt .

Imagine resigning from your job and still being able to call the shots.....wtf kind of system is this!! Amd canadians just accepting this ?? WTF KINDA COUNTRY IS THIS. Don't wanna merge and have usd and ecpnomic union and a mess fixed justin creates? and not have a gov that executes? Get ready for nsf and bankruptcy

Yup we( some of us) bought this S88t story of nationalist glory and thank god the Canada and the world sees and is standing up to this right wing nut circus. We the people of America have to fix this like a cancer it won't be easy and it won't be without pain to go around but just as we found in WWII and since we can not allow this type of depictive type of government to get a foothold. Stand tough hold yourselves above this mess so you can help us when we have worked through this.

Do you think Trump is surprised by this? He's 10 steps ahead of all of you. He has plans for whatever you try to do. Either way you lose. All of you people better get it together and come on over to the winning team and help fix things. If you don't you're just a psycho left fool and you're whole group is dwindling fast. And you can't trust each other so be first before your friends throw you under the bus. Or don't. Lol.

Our Prime Minister fibbed on one aspect 'Donald is NOT a smart man' There, fixed it. Oh, Canada! The True north strong and free.

If you make a person your President, who is not only a 34 times CONVICTED FELON, but is also a FRAUDSTER, who has filed for bankruptcy SIX TIMES, what did you think he was going to do to the economy of the USA?  \n\nDid you not see what he did to the rock solid economy he took over from President Obama in 2016?  It took President Biden 4 years to fix the US economy that Republicans and Trump DESTROYED by the end of 2020.  When President Biden left office the US economy was the ENVY  OF THE WORLD and now in just a few short weeks Trump and Republicans HAVE DUMPED THE US ECONOMY BACK IN YHE TRASH!!!

Until we fix the bully, do what you have to do to protect yourself. Smart folks know fentanyl traffic is less than .08% coming from your borders. HE is scared to bully the real threats and agitators like Russia, North Korea and somewhat China so he is picking on Canada to ‘appear’ tough to his ignorant base that is working so much due to low wages, that there have no time to read or watch anything other than his propaganda.

RESPONSE TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROPAGANDA AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP\n\nTo the American People, Mainstream Media, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk\n\nThe mainstream media is once again spinning lies and manipulating reality to push their globalist agenda.\n\n? THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT TRUMP IS CREATING A WAR WITH CANADA AND MEXICO.\n? THE TRUTH? TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE COLLAPSE THEY HAVE PLANNED.\n\nCNN and other media outlets are pushing a false narrative about President Trump imposing tariffs on Canada and Mexico as an “attack” or “act of economic war.” This is not about war. This is about taking America back from the deep state elites who have been destroying our economy and flooding our country with illegal immigration.\n\n1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.\n\n2. TRUDEAU IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE GLOBAL ELITES\n\nCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not defending Canada—he is defending the deep state agenda.\n\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau more upset about Trump’s tariffs than he is about China’s infiltration of Canada?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau defending globalist trade deals instead of fighting to keep Canada’s economy strong?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau suddenly trying to turn Americans against Trump right as NATO and the EU are pushing for war?\n\nBECAUSE THIS IS A COORDINATED ATTACK.\n\n? Trudeau is panicking because Trump is taking away their power.\n? Trudeau is working with the globalists to weaken America.\n? Trudeau knows his country depends on the U.S., and if America stops playing their game, Canada collapses too.\n\nThis is why he is attacking Trump, calling him “dumb” on CNN, and trying to manipulate the American people into turning against their own president.\n\n3. TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE IMMIGRATION INVASION\n\n? FACT: Canada and Mexico have been working alongside the deep state to flood America with illegal immigrants.\n? FACT: The goal was to change U.S. demographics, destroy the economy, and create a permanent voting base for globalist-controlled politicians.\n? FACT: This was NEVER about helping migrants—this was about replacing the American people with a population that could be controlled.\n\n? Why do you think Biden opened the borders?\n? Why do you think millions of illegal immigrants are being shipped across the U.S. at taxpayer expense?\n? Why do you think every major city is being overrun with migrants while American citizens are struggling?\n\nThis is planned destruction—and Trump is stopping it.\n\n? Trump and JD Vance will shut down illegal immigration completely.\n? Trump will reimplement strict border security, build more of the wall, and stop the deep state from using mass migration as a weapon.\n? The globalists are afraid because if Trump stops their immigration plan, they lose their ability to control future elections and destroy American sovereignty.\n\n4. THE MEDIA IS LYING TO YOU—AGAIN\n\n? The same mainstream media that lied about Russian collusion is now pushing the lie that Trump is starting a war with Canada and Mexico.\n? The same mainstream media that censored the truth about Biden’s corruption is now protecting Trudeau and the deep state’s plan.\n? The same mainstream media that attacked Trump for four years straight is now attacking him again because they know he is winning.\n\nTHIS IS A DISTRACTION.\n\nThey want you to focus on fake outrage about tariffs while ignoring the real crisis:\n\n? AMERICA IS BEING INVADED FROM WITHIN.\n? THE DEEP STATE WANTS TO COLLAPSE THE U.S. THROUGH MASS MIGRATION.\n? THE GLOBALISTS NEED TRUMP GONE BECAUSE HE IS STOPPING THEIR PLAN.\n\n5. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE AWAKE—WE WILL NOT FALL FOR THIS\n\nTo CNN and the mainstream media: We know you are lying. You have lost control of the narrative, and the American people see through your propaganda.\n\nTo Justin Trudeau: You are a puppet, and your attempts to manipulate Americans will fail.\n\nTo President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance: The American people stand with you. We know you are fighting for our country, and we will not be fooled by the lies of the globalist elite.\n\nTo Elon Musk: Keep exposing the truth. The deep state is afraid because they can no longer censor real information.\n\nTo every American reading this: Share this message before they try to silence it.\n\nTHIS IS NOT ABOUT TRADE. THIS IS ABOUT THE FUTURE OF AMERICA.\nTHE DEEP STATE IS PANICKING—AND THAT MEANS WE ARE WINNING.\n\n? AMERICA FIRST. 1776 WILL NOT BE ERASED. ?\n\nThis response is clear, powerful, and directly dismantles the mainstream media’s lies. I encourage you to copy and paste this as one unified message for YouTube, social media, or emails.

Fix your shit Republicans.

All those who are transporters and they still don’t see anything wrong with what’s happening I’m going to pray for you and your delusional state because this does not have anything to do Republican or democrat. This has to do with the rich middle class in the poor two you guys understand that he does not give a damn about you. He only wanted to vote. You’re going to understand when things start happening in your life in your world and you’re begging for help and you realize that this person sees you in need of help and they won’t help you Then you’re gonna realize he used you but until your world comes crumbling crashing down you’re not gonna understand so sit back enjoy this ride and watch your life. Crumble everything you work for will be gone. All your hopes and dreams will be gone after his presidency is over after this. You know how long it’s gonna take for us to come back from this hell we might even be rule by Russia everybody ready for that I don’t think so. They’ll be no democracy in this country no longer you will do what is told of you or you will suffer consequences they will be fatal so wake up get a grip on what is happening in reality right now you wanna look at him like he’s God he’s king. I don’t see him as a present. I see him as a fucking problem. He thinks he’s solving problems. He is creating chaos and more problems. When this is over we’re not even gonna be able to fix this shit it’s gonna take decades hell these people may not even wanna do business with us ever again we gonna be a third world country And everybody else around us gonna be thriving.?

And nobody's dumb enough to think that this is a short-term fix gas prices are up 70 cents a gallon mostly everywhere let's see who pays for that oh yeah that's right US citizens supposed to fix food prices not up 30% by the way this is all on Trump's watch right oh yeah that's right like I said both sides are liars that's why I'm independent proud of it we put people in office are we take him out of office in the next vote he doesn't care cuz this is his last Rodeo but don't think an impeachment wouldn't be on his record again

Just resign already. Your not pm anymore in my eyes. Get Pierre in their to fix what you broke

Trump needs to shut up and fix this.

The Mexican president wants Trump yo take care of the cartels in USA, why he doesn’t take care of in his territory and wants to fix it in Mexican Territory. The last army guns that the government confiscated in Mexico were for Americans to tried to cross to Mexico .

When will Canada learn that Trump wants to annex Canada by destroying it. Americans asked for this and it is up to them to fix it

1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why?

It's sad that US voters put themselves and their fellow americans in this awful situation. This won't be easy to fix now, and it will hurt everyone, apart from Vladimir who is for sure having the time of his life in Moscow lately.

As a Canadian a citizen ,I am more than angry ,I am ashamed and embarrassed at the Trudeau government ! All the liberals needed to do is fix borders and take care of the devastation safe supply sites which Canadian citizens have been calling for ,for years !! Disgusting ! United States have been friends and neighbours throughout most of Canadian history and this selfish greedy corrupted PM just destroyed all of it for nothing but to impose himself on the seat since we are going to war ! Detestable! Trudeau is the threat to Canadians not Trump ! ??????❤️and remember this clown Trudeau is suppose to be stepping down in the coming days ! Think about how selfish and careless these liberals are !

Of course it's CNN. Trudeau, you do not represent Canadians. You have destroyed Canada and only now because of Trump you are dealing with the horrid fentanyl problem that is killing our communities. You have not fixed our health care system nor our political system. YOU NEED TO JUST GO, STOP YOUR EGO DRIVEN LAST GASP AT LEADERSHIP. You prorogued our own government, basically shut down debate and decision making in Canada while you parade yourself around the global world. NOW YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT CANADA FIRST, when a short two months ago you were pushing Canada for the past 9 years as a post national state. You are posturing and have no credibility in Canada or globally. YOU DID NOT WORK WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU CAME UP WITH NO PLAN BASED ON WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE U.S. YOU JUST WANT TO PREEN AND SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA AND SKIRT AROUND RESPECTFUL NEGOTIATIONS WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP BECAUSE YOU ARE MANIPULATING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. Just take that walk Trudeau and be gone, you have 3 more days and then we do not want to see you again.

Lol CNN cucks to trashing trump. We need our nation fixed before worying about another. Biden admin ruined so much.

I feel bad for the American people, I have friends there and they have a hard enough time as it is. This just makes me sad. I also have friends who have died due to fentanyl, fix our border on both sides, damnit. And catch these assholes who are killing both our countries citizens.

Justin Castro resigned before been impeached yet still lingers like a foul smell, once the foul smell leaves the room Pierre Poilievre can sort the relations and fix the country again

True Americans stand with our President Donald J Trump, the majority of real patriots voted for him. Canadians, Mexicans, Ukraine, it's over, they will not continue taking advantage of American citizens, fix your problems, USA we have our own problems and our leader only cares about us, as it should be.

While President chose to do this because you're allowing criminals and drugs that are causing harm to our country through your border why won't you just stop and fix your border Instead. Because it doesn't meet with your real true plans

I'm from America and I'm with Canada. Trump has got to be stopped along with the whole Republican party. They are the biggest threat to our country, security and democracy. It's just to bad nobody has the balls to just go in and take them out. The judicial system in this country is a joke. So we have to figure out other ways. They fixed the election and convinced 30M to follow their agenda. I'm ? with Canada.. America is disgraceful because of the traitors running it.
