Trudeau is not that popular in Canada, but he is one thing,he's not Trump.He cares about Canadians, and our Sovereignty. Trump has sold out Americans to Russia, and is president only to keep himself out of prison and to enrich himself from the position. He has no interest in the American people, only in revenge for supposed flights to him by just about everyone, as he is a petulant child.

America will no longer carry others, you got high tariffs on America, we put high tariffs on you, turn about is fair play. We voted for Trump to do EXACTLY what's he's doing, this is why everyone is barking now, America has been carrying so many countries for so long, that everyone has forgotten, no longer though. As far as Russia goes, Ukraine is a cash cow money laundering country with a dictator, Russia is not the enemy here, it's you Globalists and Davos clowns that think you can influence the whole world like we are in the matrix, the cat is out of the bag, people are waking up, zelinski chose his fate, and disrespected the U.S. Trump put him in his place. Alot of you are so lost on global politics, all you professed military people saying Putin is the enemy just really shows how little you know. So go ahead Canada and act tough..........you know we carry your country, we don't need your power, our grid is strong, or products etc, the next thing will be car manufacturing plants coming back to America, from Canada and Mexico, where they should be. Let's see how long that tough talk pays Canadas bills ??????????

Why is everyone tiptoeing around the real reason for these tariffs? Trump has made no secret of his true motivations. He wants to absorb Canada into the USA so he can exploit it's abundant natural resourses, redirect fresh water across the border and give their military free reign of the arctic regions of the country. Any and all other justifications and excuses he comes up with are little more than window dressings

I hope everyone leaves behind agreements with USA \n\n\nFrom UE, Canada, Mexico and BRICS including Russia

Go Canada. Looks like this is everyone’s fight now. Best wishes from UK ????

is not it open trade? USA can do whatever they want. Trump is doing it for his country. why do you talk it when it happens to only your country? They are doing the same thing to Iran, China and Russia for years. why did not talk like this when USA did same thing China and Russia and Iran. if they can do it to those countries, they will also do it to your country. What USA is doing to Russia, China and Iran for years is unjust and illegal. But as Canada you would not speak it out. If you do not talk about unjust, if you keep silent, that it would happens to you one day is inevitable. Speak for justice for everyone, not just for your country, dear Canada.

Demonstration of freedom when you don't have to win another election! Truth par excellence! Bold and justified. South Africa stand by Canada... and everyone vs USA.

Good on Canada for standing up for their people. The news anchor seems offended that Canada is talking “harshly “ to poor o frump… o please! Enough with the treatment of kid gloves Americans will be deeply hurt by this buffoon starting a trade war with our allies… the frumpy supporters this is what you voted for so don’t want to hear crying…. You didn’t want to listen to the warnings given so now deal with it just like everyone else that knew better ….

It's a drug WAR pushed by CHINA, CANADA & MEXICO! USA LEGAL CITIZENS have been PERSECUTED BY ALL! NOW that we FIGHT back everyone is crying in their cereal! We have been on the receiving end of bad deals for the USA for decades & no country spoke up for us! Things are changing. It will be a rough way for awhile.... But in the end all will see that TRUMP IS RIGHT!! A BALANCED SCALE IS THE ONLY WAY EVERYONE IS TREATED FAIRLY!!!

How has everyone so quickly forgotten the reason for these tariffs. Canada has not stemed the flow of fentanyl. They contuine to poison their own people and ours. We ask them to stop or we impose tarrifs, they say they will stop, then they do not stop. Trudeau is full of bullsh!t go to our northern border in WA or NY and just ask the locals. They see the illegals all the time. They cross the border and then call for help. Its gotten so bad that if you do call to turn yourself in and get a court date, border patrol has a daily wait time of 1 1/2 to 2 hours just to make initial contact. Think about that, what about the criminals and smugglers who dont call.

I stand with Canada. Canadians are better Americans than absolutely everyone in the GOP.

Shut up Trudeau...everyone wants peace. Trump did us a favour. Canada first.....trade within our borders and the big world

Well done Canada. Trump thinks because he is a bully that everyone will fall down and accept whatever he tells them.\nBullies are a thing of the past. The USA is absolutely FU*KED.\nWell done all who voted for this idiot and dictator Trump. Fools.

I know americans that dont support trump will have to pay for this but its time to BOYCOTT america everyone... unfortunately this is the point that needs to be proven. the world doesnt need another dictator. I fully Support Canada!

It’s funny how everyone thinks it’s one sided but Canada already has 25% tariffs against us, we’re literally just matching them.

Canada was requested numerous times to help stop the flow of fentanyl which Mexican cartels trafficked that killed 200,000 Americans. Trudeau's reply is only 1% of fentanyl comes through Canada.. even though they don't properly secure the border and everyone knows the amount is significantly higher.\nTrudeau ran to Mexico to sweet talk THEM into mutual trade deals rather than assist the US stopping Mexican cartels.\n\nTrudeau should be arrested and tried by military tribunal for his participation in 200,000 deaths.

Well done Canada ??✅.\nWe-the-people, are backing you with citizens in the USA boycotting our own country ??????it hurts everyone???

This is lose-lose for everyone. Canada is the USA's closest neighbor and Ali. This is not about Fentanyl. This is about bullying.

Trudeau and the liberals were way underwater. Trump could have had a right wing ally in Canada, but Trump has managed to enrage everyone in Canada so much they are probably going to support a liberal gov't that will resist the US. Good!

To Justin Trudeau, any thought to cut up Felon Musk's Canadian Passport, I bet he will slow down and tell his vice president trump to back off, he is causing everyone even his best friend to lose money, check out any deals he has in Canada and cancel, make them hurt then some reality might slap them and they can see this shit don't happen in 2025!!!

We voted to be more independent from other countries. We voted to make America a producer again. \nIf Canada and everyone else wants to be butt hurt about it then so be it. It also makes sense to alight yourself with the country that could take out all of the other countries. Putin won’t live forever either. This is about the long game. America first! \nWe don’t need yall and yall don’t need us so you shouldn’t care and flip out over tariffs lmao

Thanks everyone for the great support in these comments for my beautiful country, Canada. It is a very sad time in history for both sides.

The United States ?? doesnt owe Canada anything. Thats Canada's problem now. Everyone is getting charged

I would say if you stop the flow of drugs into our country like Trump asked you to do and tighten up the border. There would be no problem whatsoever at all, but you say you’re an honest person and you want to get along with everyone well, just stop the drugs from coming in in East Terrace won’t be on there. Trump hasn’t seen any easing up on that border over there and things would be back to normal so it’s it’s sad he had to do that but then your retaliating and what does it do it does nothing yes Canada is gonna suffer and we’re gonna suffer here in the United States all because of your stubbornness and hardness I’ve seen over the years how you text the hell out of your own Canadian citizens and that’s why they don’t like you there, but that has nothing to do with it so

I am Canadian and everyone who use to support America is now buying Canadian. Canada helped kill Palestinians and Lebanese folks because of the US. Maybe this is our karma

If only JT had cared about his people for the last several years you may not have ended up in this situation. He screwed up Canada and now everyone is applauding him? Canadians are not polite, they only pretend to be, and then viciously turn and attack. You're all acting like the 30 year old still living in his parents basement that has been asked to pay rent or move out.

Why is it that everyone outside of America has an expectation on how we should be that benefits them. This can has been kicked down the road for multiple decades. The waste, fraud, and abuse we are uncovering in the government. The situation with NATO and Ukraine and no one can fix their problems or issues without the US. We have aggressive homelessness, poverty, poor education system, high taxes, and a government that in the past has done nothing but pimp our tax dollars out just for kickbacks. Everyone is pissing and moaning about our domestic problems while also having an extremely high bar on the international stage. I have never received aid from the UN, never receive money from other countries, nor assistance. Is no one in America tired of this? Here we are talking about Bourbon tax….lol. A great reset needs to happen and though I do not like it, it is happening and I am here for it. BTW I love Canada and Mexico and believe at best that if we pull out of NATO I would still hope we can have an Americas/Mexico treaty.

WAIT! Is Canada now a Canada-first country? RACIST! \n\n\nOh, right. It's only racist for the United States to think of their people first, but everyone else is completely free to do so.

Why is everyone bashing President Trump and his administration? If every nation has a free choice how many would choose alliance with Canada over Russia? President Trump has promised to Make America Great Again and that is excactly what he is doing ??

Terrible how our Country America treating Canada and Mexico always been there from disasters to military in past wars. Stand up everyone there no winners! Cost of living, loss jobs and small businesses gone. But the rich will be fine but we are the ones that suffer. So messed up.

I’m American, fuck Trump and Elon Musk. I support my brothers and sisters in Canada and across the world! This is bs and this sucks for all of us. We started a war with our friends…Everyone knows real winners win together.

A visit was planned for 2025 but will Canada allow anyone with a US passport in. No one should want this. It is akin yo fighting with your siblings. Unfortunately, there were those who assumed they were voting for something helpful. And unfortunately , some still choose to take this path. Not everyone feels in this manner. Thank you PM for speaking up for your constituents and all who see this as unjust.?

Canada is all in. We are tired of being threatened by a bully and felon. We have a targeted response that will hurt everyone and we are prepared for the long haul. The Tariff scheme is based on lies. Don the Con should be in jail! ELBOWS UP!

You mention that Americans are 30% more expensive than Canadians but you dont mention that the US is far more unequal with a Gini coefficient of 0.41 vs 0.35 in Canada. Now there is also a known issue with using GDP data to calculate productivity and that is that in sme countries the labor of GDP is much lower than in others. You then end up with Irish productivity being the second highest in the world only because most large US corporations operating in the EU register there to pay lower taxes but most of that revenue is just on paper for Ireland. or with Guyana whose oil and mining revenue makes it productivity equal to that of the US. Maybe that is the case, but is it? and if so why is the average wage in Guyana so much lower? so choosing only one specific stat can make any point of view seem true. you have to look at the bigger picture.\nnow the issue is Canada has been getting more unequal but it is still much better than the US. so what it means is that the higher worker productivity in the US benefits corporations and billionaires far more than it benefits the average American. now if we compare cost of living say between NYC and Toronto:\nCost of Living in Toronto is 37.5% lower than in New York, NY (without rent) \nCost of Living Including Rent in Toronto is 47.1% lower than in New York, NY \nRent Prices in Toronto are 59.2% lower than in New York, NY \nRestaurant Prices in Toronto are 34.5% lower than in New York, NY \nGroceries Prices in Toronto are 33.0% lower than in New York, NY \nLocal Purchasing Power in Toronto is 7.2% higher than in New York, NY \nand this is similar when comparing almost all large Canadian cities with a comparable US one. And whilst housing and NIMBYIsm is real issue you have very similar issues in the US which also has almost no mix zoning. But throw in safety nets and go ask Canadians if they want to change for the US system. I doubt most will. Sure some want things to change but some assuming everyone wants an ultra capitalistic society. most are ok with less growth ut better balanced growth (the exact opposite of the boom and bust US model)

Canada, more than poor economically, a socially sterile country. No sense of belonging, love, community, fun or pride. Traditional families are a rarity. Everyone wants to be alone so no wonder there's no housing. We gradually lost everything that brought us together to allow total sterility to rule everywhere..

I tried launching a startup in cleantech in Canada, shortly after COVID. No private investors had an interest, and none of the banks lend to businesses, unless they have cash flow.\n\nLong story short, there is no economic mobility in Canada. You are either rich or poor, and nether can swap places. Despite how foolish property speculation is, compared to the potential of a cleantech startup (with a patent), rich people put it into real estate anyways. Literally everyone loses, because of the actions of economically illiterate rich people.

Everyone in Canada looks to the government to solve their problems. This will never change.

My family has lived in Canada for several generations. My grandpa moved here from Italy and he started a large masonry company and become successful. But as a college student, I'm the 5% minority. Everyone else is from the third world, especially India and China. Our culture has been completely destroyed and replaced. Plus tens of Billions of dollars is being donated to them, and the aboriginals to fund their drugs and alcohol. There's thousands of very high homeless people wondering the streets, all funded through welfare. The cost of living has sky rocketed. I am moving the the U.S. I want to be with my own people! Multiculturalism has failed!

FEEDBACK: I've operated various businesses in Canada and all I can say is, 'never again'. The BUREAUCRACY grows in strength every year, issuing more & more regulations, stifling everything. For every new rule a bureaucrat introduces, an old rule should be retired.\n\nHOUSING: It's the Liberal Government policy to pander to immigrant voters that has put us down the wrong path. I'm amazed that so few people in, say, Vancouver who complain about the astronomical cost of rent and mortgages realize that their problem is directly caused by our WEAK policy of permitting new immigrants to move to Vancouver & Toronto , instead of the 1,000 other towns where they're desperately needed. How stupid are we, to not even understand the policy issue? \n\nMeanwhile, I actually lost my apartment block in Winnipeg because the market value dropped below the mortgage balance and the bureaucracy was killing me with their conflicting rulings. So, why did my block drop in market value? Because people were leaving Winnipeg, and Manitoba. EVERYONE went to Vancouver or Toronto. Thanks for nothing, stupid politicians.. the opposition isn't doing their job when Canadians don't know anything about this.

As someone living in Canada... I actually don't feel much of the things mentioned in the video. Sure, wages are not growing as fast as it can, but as someone who managed to purchase a home *before* the bubble started to expand, I'm living steady right now.\n\nWhat is REALLY causing a large part of the social and economic issues is actually the fact that provinces are NOT expanding new towns and cities in the millions of kilometers that needs to grow. Everyone is moving into cities, including refugees and new immigrants, which is driving up local prices and demand for everything. A few years ago, there were literally news of townships outside of the major cities offering houses and land for $50 per acre if people move to those towns and live there. \n\nCanada's biggest (heh) advantage is how much land it has. It's biggest weakness is how little comparative population it has. The worst problem is the concentration of population in like 6 keys cities throughout the entire country. If more people who complain about housing or social issues were willing to move outside of the major cities, they wouldn't have those problems.

I'm tired of Canada being compared to the US and no one else. Yes, the US is more productive, richer and powerful than Canada, everyone knows that. But they're also all those 3 things to every other economy in the world! Don't stop comparing Canada to the US, but for god's sake, could you throw in some European and Asian countries too?

My mother country is China, but I have experienced some things that remind me I should immigrate to a free country. So, I decided to immigrate to Canada. Everyone experiences different things, and it’s enough to find love and happiness, and not regret your whole life when you die. That’s OK

Yeah, keep making Canada look like the enemy, because that's reasonable and good for everyone. /s\n\nYou used to be cool, man.

The people leaving Canada are older, and they have money. The ones coming are poor and compete with other poor immigrants that can't afford to leave. When I came to Canada with my parents they had to be skilled and bring with them the minimum of $10.000.00. Today the door is open everyone comes to visit finds a job that hire illegal migrants, and never leave. The company saves and no one pays taxes. The government is corrupt. Immigration, Unions even most police officers are corrupt to the core with DEI hiring Canada is in a crisis to say the least.

And people wonder why Trump put sanctions on Canada. This is why, police your borders Canada. The US is tired of having to do everything for everyone and getting the short end of the stick.

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.

Immigrants fly to Montreal posing as tourists. The airport border patrol officer welcomes them with a smile, wishes them a nice vacation and stamps their passport. The immigrants make their way to the border somewhere between Maine and New York. They sneak across the border at night. The problem is that Canada lets everyone in as long as they have something that resembles a passport. Canada needs to stop the open border “immigration to all” system at the international airports and shipping ports.

Its really disappointing that canada allows these people into canada. We had to go through so much to get here legally and these people just piss on the opportunity and ruin the country for everyone

Canada president should let everyone pass and don't collaborate with USA after the high taxes imposed by Trump

Ummm.....I am Canadian and I find it funny that nobody in the US talks about the flow of drugs and GUNS coming FROM the States into Canada??? I really liked your videos until this one. You are part of the problem of people sharing misinformation. The immigration thing yes!!! We need to close our borders and I think EVERY Canadian will agree with that. Please don't join in and make videos encouraging the hate towards Canada. Not cool at all. The States can't blame everyone else for their issues.????????????
