whatever they do in their personal lives is not my business but when the federal government is paying for elective surgery thats a problem

Who the hell do these people think they are. Go protest and fix your own country and your own problems. The arrogance is astounding.

They should not blame America for the problems that they’re having in their own countries. America is just protecting their own citizens and if you break the law, you will be arrested. If you wanna come in to America, you need to come in through customs and then if they fit that you’re right, they will let you in.That is the law of America!

you cannot come here right now, we have people here who are struggling too. I’m sorry that your country isn’t safe or has a lot of problems, but people in the US can’t afford groceries either and the gov doesn’t help the homeless, disabled or elderly enough as it is. No one should be entering the country until every single homeless citizen has been given whatever appropriate help they need and a place to live. Until our own poor citizens have been given sufficient amounts for food. Some elderly US people get $23 in SNAP monthly and are expected to eat and survive on that, while illegals are handed cards with $800 on them to eat with. How is that ever ok? \nSome of us are existing on like $600 per month, we have veterans living on the streets. These things must change before we can help anyone else. I am not unsympathetic to your cause, but I see too many struggling citizens right now that I have to care about first.

Start acting more like Poland and problem will be solved.

Good fix your own country we have our own problems

lol sorry but all of my problems can be traced back to other citizens, not immigrants.

I Really Don't See What The Problem Is. You're Here Illegally, you get Caught, Take Your Weight!!?

They can use this aggression to go topple and fix the problems in their own countries

Ye wahi Log he jinke parents Bahut Saan se kahte the hamara Beta or Beti America me He America me to he per Wapas Chain ⛓️ me A rahe he ?? Bahut Problem tha India se jo America Bhikha Magne chale gaye ??

The polish have a solution for this type of problem.

Amazing how America brought Africans over in shackles and chains but when they come voluntarily it’s a problem. Africans are indigenous to every continent. Perplexing how America steals land then dictates who can reside on it. Hilarious.

This will crumble the canda's economy more and people will suffer, canada already have housing problems imagine stacking up with more life necessary products. America will get away with printing more dollars, its canada who will suffer a big time, dont pullout a brexit here by changing the economic reforms.

Unbelievable, if they took this same energy and fixed their own countries, we wouldn't have this problem. What a nightmare if they made it in.

Democrats Biden Harris created problem? they invited them

There are enough trans athletes in the world and good enough shape to compete on a world in Olympic level and all the levels beneath those, that I'm going to say that if someone transitions who is already in the military and they can still pass all the requirements to remain in the military, they should be allowed to remain in the military. That's fair. Edward Snowden, while in boot camp, and correct me if I'm wrong but I think he was training as a Navy SEAL, hopped off his bunk and his shins that were already broken disconnected and threw him on the floor. After his surgeries and Rehabilitation he was allowed to return to training. And this was with two broken legs that took weeks to announce themselves by disconnecting and misaligning to the point he could no longer Walk and Run on them. If he can do that then somebody suffering through all the crap that they have to go to go through to become another gender and the hormone balance they have to maintain afterward and they can still do their job they can still get in the rain, they can still run an easy 10 before breakfast, with a full pack they can still Shoot Straight they can still command they can still follow they still love this country and want to uphold our Constitution and defend it against all enemies foreign and domestic, then they should be allowed to stay in the military. A physical and mental Fitness is all that's required then I'm going to say this officer qualifies. Now what about the mental problem of being a man and considering yourself a woman or being a woman and considering yourself a man? I personally believe there is one God and his only son is Jesus who died for our sins and this guy created the universe and loves us but Mormon Jehovah's Witnesses Catholics and Muslims do not believe the same thing that I believe. Their ideology is different from mine as this man who identifies and has had surgery to become a woman in the US Military believe about himself.

If anyone has a problem with deportation. Prove your righteous by writing a check out , to pay back the American tax payers.

U cnt run away frm ur country,who wil solve ur problems if learn to run away...thres a process ,a legal process nt thru this??

No more!! New sheriff is in town.. come here LEGALLY and no problems.. come here ILLEGALLY and turn your asses around???

Let this topic be discussed internally within CNN. President Trump, you have many problems to solve after the sloppy Joe, just move forward.

No Muslim no problem

I have no problem with it. Anybody here illegally should be illegal.

It has nothing to do with illegal immigration or drugs into the US. The Canadian border is only responsible for 1% of illegal immigration into the US. As for fentanyl, the problem is not coming from Canada.

Trudeau has resigned, and soon he is leaving. So what will be his last gift?\nHe is leaving the coming government in an economic fight of retaliation. \ninstead of leaving them on a negotiation table on how to resolve the illegal immigrants problem and fight against fentanyl drugs. \nI would prefer to find solutions on these two issues because there won't be any tarrif or money involved. but if they are starting a fight with Trump. It might involve a lot of things.\nJust look at how he frozen the federal government funds, so pick up a retaliation fight and see where it will end. \nLearn from the Colombian President. What do you have to lose? \nI FORESEE CANADA AND MEXICO ECONOMIES COLLAPSING. YOU WILL TELL ME I WAS RIGHT. DON'T FIGHT TRUMP WITH STUPIDITY OF RETALIATION.

I think this is ultimately going to crash economies and create a huge unemplyment problem.

Well Mexico can't say anything... All the caravans run through their country and they just let them so if anything they are one of the worst parts of the problem

He must hate Canada more than China. We are not Americans problem

Maybe the US should fix their drug user problem first\nThey just gonna find a different way to aquire those drugs

Trump is going to have problems with everyone, I did not vote for this guy

they have so much pride for their country yet they choose to flee their OWN COUNTRY AND ILLEGALLY CAUSE PROBLEMS BY INVADING BEAUTIFUL AMERICA

I don't think the average viewer knows why the US is doing this. They're trying to combat illegal immigration and fentanyl as well as Mexican compliance with the drug cartels.\n\nThe reason tariffs are being used is because America is in a very powerful position when it comes to trade. The american economy doesn't rely on trade like Canada (67%), Mexico (73%) and China (37%). American trade accounts for only 24% of its massive GDP. if you removed all trade from america, it would still have larger economical output than china, mexico and canada COMBINED. yes. Combined. \n\nFurthermore, Canadian trade with america account for almost 80% of all trade in canada. A 25% increase would be absolutely devastating to canada. In america its about 13% so a 25% increase would cost more but it wont have any significant impact.\n\nNo doubt this tarrif war will cause far more problems for canada mexico and china than america. By a LOT. \n\nI dont think america is being selfish either. China does nothing to protect america from sending precursor chemicals to america to manufacture fentanyl. Canada facilitates illegal immigration and fentanyl into america with no accountability. And mexico is illegal immigrants by the MILLIONS and is literally working with the drug cartels. If they sort out those issues the trade war ends. \n\nI think america has every right to go to war to protect its sovereignty and its people.

Why can't Canada put a double % on the US tariffs which makes from the US imported goods like cars so expensive that nobody will buy it. Yes it's a problem. Just buy those cars from Europe or Japan. There are also very great goods from Europe like the orange juice mentioned in the video. This is available in Europe and Northern Africa as well. Canada eh! Just switch the trading origins. Would be very nice to getting much closer to Canada and Mexico with the EU ?❤

Canada should set the tariffs 40 percent back until they keep the guns and drugs out of Canada also. That's been a problem for decades.

This is going to hurt All Canadians and will extremely hurt Mexico. \nIt's only going to hurt yearly profits of 1% of Americans and those with CanAm's and anything Bombardier or Rotax. The automotive industry will just come back and have to eat the margin losses until they recoup. They still have plants here, they just have to bring everything back, rehab the buildings and start hiring and training folks.\nChina is the problem because they make everything and ship a lot of goods into this country... \nWe joyfully took our major manufacturing there instead of keeping it all here and becoming an industrial complex like they did as perfect capitalistic communists ...\nOh, but I forgot, regulations, mandates and emissions drove away most of our industry along with greed to increase margins. Until those regulations, mandates and emissions standards are changed, there's going to be a major manufacturing concern in this country.

Should have thought that one through and actually negotiated with the businessman instead of causing his country more problems.....but we are talking about the dummy who used a mass shooting to ban more guns even though all the weapons used in that mass shooting were already banned. Have never seen any item that said made in Canada so all he's doing is hurting his own country....same with Mexico that lets itself be used as a highway.

The problem here is MexiCan are net US exporter, while the US is net importer. Will MexiCan suffer yes, but they still keep the goods, while US will have less supply.

USA doesn’t care for people with addictions. If they cared, they wouldn’t need an extra tax on another country to help their problem

If the Truckers where in charge of Gayada wouldn’t be any tariff problem!

But they should stop sending people into USA. People are allowed to cross both countries without any problem. This is like a war on USA.

All this because the US cannot get it's fellow citizens and most vulnerable people the help they need with their addictions. Let's remember that the US has the biggest demand for illegal drugs in the world. Republicans love starting wars and not solving the root causes of problems. They never learn from their mistakes.

Why doesn't Trudeau ask Trump what he is doing to curb the fentanyl problem in the US, that is where the consumption is as the president of Mexico has already pointed out. No one ever confronts Trump with anything.

Illegal immigrants causing problems wherever they go

Fentanyl is a problem of US demand and Chinese supply.

Trudeau has been on his farewell tour while he still has access to the treasury rather than dealing with this.\nBut he has shown a tendency to run away from problems rather than tackling them so this is par for the course.\n\nHe is a lame duck, who will be replaced by an equally weak (and unelected !) 'leader' on March 9th, then whether or not the government falls depends on yet another weak leader, this time of one of the opposition parties.\n\nAs Canada and Mexico diversify their trade networks to make up for this, the US will be pushed into isolation. Here in Canada, the world is hungry for our energy and willing to pay full value, not the $14/bbl discount the US currently enjoys.\n\nHope it was worth it.

Mr trump on his first day said that he is a peacemaker and want the world to stop the fight. He will stop russia ukraine war etc \n\nSo then he chose to put tariffs on canada and at the end who is going to get sufffer Americans what a joke of a person trump is then saying something and creating problem for own people.\nThe reasons that he is giving of putting tariffs has no relation to tariffs.\nIf he geniunely wants illegal immigrants n drugs to stop in US then rather working on border or asking canadins ministers to put xtra protection on borders \nHe choses tariffs\nTotally nonsense person

Voters also wanted a bipartisan immigration bill, but Trump and the Republicans stopped it so he could use the issue to his advantage in the campaign. That’s how much Trump and the Republicans care about the border problem. I will never vote Republican again,

how dead do your brain cells have to be to think that doing something like this will immediately solve the problem. If there wasn't a demand there wouldnt be anyone trying to fill the demand. Purdue Pharma also helped create the demand by pushing highly addictive opioid drugs and lying about it to people. Those people they hooked didn't suddenly disappear. It created a chain that we are still seeing today. They would rather put a bandage on the bleeding wound than cough up the money and the actual will to start solving the crisis that is driving people into drugs. Like lack of affordable housing, once people lose that safety and are on the street drugs end up providing a relief from their situation. Lack of any meaningful mental health care, or any health care at all. There are underlying things that aren't getting solved, people will always find new ways to find or make drugs whether those drugs come from other countries or just created inside the US.

The Liberals are the problem. Then JT and jagmeet Singh.

Canada has a serious mental problem. Why don’t u just go to find more trade partners? Why do u only trade with the ??? Learn the words: Balance Leverage and alternative…

If Trump wants to stop the use of Fentanyl by Americans, maybe he needs to educate the American people of the dangers of Fentanyl and punish Big Pharma and Doctors for prescribing these addictive drugs to patients. Tariffs would NOT solve the problem.
