If you move to another country you need to be part of their culture and their way of life, speak their language and become one of them..but people love to move to Canada to take advantage of all the freedoms and continue doing what they are doing.

Canada needs to send back all immigrants it has let into the country for the past 10 years.

Trump, please don't add Canada to the US. We don't need more foreign scammers. 🙏🏻

Canada needs to build a wall. And make the USA pay for it.

Who cares . Don't care. No need to prepare. A lot of beautiful places in Canada for visiting.

this is exactly what CANADA needs to do with the criminals that enter CANADA.

You know. Donald and America in general. Dont give two squirts what this panty waste does or says…. America does not need Canada…. Canada however piggy backs off the U.S…. Run along now stimpy…

Much love for Canada from Germany! Got really emotional listening to him. We definitely need more leaders like Trudeau who stand up against the bullies from US. I stand with Canada!

Canada needs to spend huge for military hardware now from EU. They will lose their air umbrella from the US

I’d much rather have Canada join the EU than the USA, but you’d need neither :D Great job Canada!

Dr Mr Trump, Americans want a good relationship with Canada. Not Russia. Please think about what your doing. Every move of yours doesnt need to be radically bold and outlandish.

The EU stands with you Canada! We need to show each and everyone of the American people that whatever the orange man is doing only benefits him and the other super rich oligarchs.

I’m an American and I stand with Canada. They need to raise taxes on the wealthy and stop trying to avoid the inevitable.

As an American, I fully support whatever you need to do Canada, I know it's not your fault you're in this position, I know it's our own country to blame. I didn't vote for the felon, and I think it's terrible that a narcissistic sexual abusive multi convicted felon was even allowed to become president, I'm disappointed in my country.

Canada needs to get a new spokesman..this dude is a fool and needs the USA more than they need him.

I am from the US, and I would say bring it on. Canada, Europe, and basically everyone moochs off the US. Canada needs the USf far more than the US needs Canada.

Trudeau, let’s talk about the Canadian truck drivers and what you did to them…. Canada is lucky this dude’s gone in a couple days. You need a real man leading your country not half a woman.

As a European, I support Canada 100%. I can't understand how educated people voted such a disaster into office not once, but twice. Basic economics can be grasped without the need for a college degree. I'm wondering why your tuition is so high. Your economy is set to collapse. America, you are in for a plunge into disaster.

Yes. We win. We don’t need Canada’s economy, they need ours. The world has been taking advantage of our resources and money for far too long. Canada doesn’t need defense, the US provides it, Europe needs no defense, the US provides it. You want to work with us, come to the table and negotiate.

Canada needs Pierre Poilievre more than ever now.

STOP! The Canadiens are not our allies. We, here in the United States of America, ARE FREE PEOPLE! Canadiens are Socialists, you are not a free people. You have no way to self correct by free elections. Look at what TRUDEAU did to those truckers. No accountability! Look what they did to President Trump. WE THE PEOPLE SPOKE...and now retribution. Canada needs to adopt a similar system. Trudeau is a piece of shit!

Perfect. Bravo Mr President. This is how true allie acts. Europe need friends like Canada ?

The world needs to do all it can to support Canada.

The United States has elected a president who is turning its longest-standing allies into adversaries. This isn't just about Canada. The entire Western world is watching. While the U.S. has the power to harm its allies, those allies also have the ability to push back, and the USA is rapidly losing friends who may not return. As America’s alliances weaken, so do the obstacles its rivals face. \n\nTake Australia, for example. Should it continue aligning with the U.S. in the Asia-Pacific region? Should it continue hosting critical American surveillance infrastructure? Should it keep supporting and supplying the U.S. fleet? The USA enjoys a trade surplus with us, but do we need to spend USD$50 billion over the next decade buying your hardware? The Europeans seem to be a more trustworthy ally, who don't make us a target.\n\nThe USA would argue that their presence ensures security, but the reality is that countries like Australia only face threats because they are tied to U.S. strategic interests. Perhaps a more pragmatic approach that avoids unnecessary antagonism with China would serve us better. \n\nAs for Canada, it will adapt and find new trading partners, just as Australia did when China attempted economic coercion. And through it all, Canada, know that Australia will stand with you—always.

Canada will need their new border security actions after US citizens start hoarding eggs from Canada.????

This entire video is why Canada needs Pierre Poilievre. He will get the economy going again. Produce more, be more self-sufficient, build more homes, reduce taxes, stop the catch, and release of criminals. I hope to God he gets in because if the liberals gets a 4th term, Canada will be headed towards third world status. ?

Please don’t resign Trudeau we the Canadians need you right now. I don’t want Trump to have Canada ?? I am with Trudeau all the way when it comes to saving our country. Please Canadians we the ones who were born in Canada ?? don’t want US to take over our country and make it part of US do we?? \nI am so proud that our Government Trudeau is speaking out to Trump . ????

We dont need canada

Canada need to team up with China! Forget usa ?

Hi frim Montreal trump saying canada is taking advantage of usa. Did he forget about the American hostages we saved in Iran, did he forget how canada stepped in during 911, tajing thousands of Americans who could not land in usa but were rerouted to eastern canada, did he forget how canadians and americans fought side by side during several wars. In my opinion not only dod he forget, but he is an insulting human being not fit to be behind the oval office but instead be behind bars as the CRIMAL that he is. God bless America you are going to need it.

We need to block trumps visit to the uk. Dont want this traitor to our allies. Long live Canada

America first. Nobody cares what any of you global experts on here think. We don’t need Canada as much as much as they need us.

Trudeau is a clown. This is a guy who thwarts free speech and jailed his own people and took their money away during peaceful protests. Canada has enjoyed a a trade surplus against us forever. They also do not have to pay for military since they are right next to us. They should be doing whatever we want. Canada was sending recyclable trash to the Philippines. When the trash arrived it was not recyclable. Philippine president said stop sending but Canada continued to send it. So finally he said if you send one more ship, we will declare no war on you. And if that happened, without US help, even the Philippines would destroy Canada in a war. Way more fighting aged males and Canada has a worthless military. Canada has a GDP of 5-10% of US. So Trudeau acting tough is hilarious. Like a chihuahua barking at a grisly bear. If push came to shove, in the time of US war need, the US would simply take whatever it wanted from Canada. That's what happens when you don't develop your own substantial military-just like Europe now.

As a Republican... I agree with many things our country needs, like tougher border security and a crackdown on the government. I do not agree with tariffs to Canada, especially them. They have always stood side by side with us. The American taxpayers will pay the tariffs. Globalization is to limit our opportunities. Trump needs to think it through.

Bravo Trudeau! You are the right president for Canada in these unique times. Keep the international alliances, Canada 1st and Canada for Canadians. The whole world is supporting all Canadians. The world does not need President Karen Trump and his madness, nor the world needs USA. It is extremely disrespectful what Trump and the USA goverment are doing. WE ARE THE PEOPLE, WE ARE THE WORLD!

I stand 100% behind the man i voted for. Trump is putting America first! I am done being blind to the swamp and their idiocy. We may hurt for a little while, but America will build back better. Stronger. We dont need Canada. They are mad about tarrifs but have them on their side. Common sense. Im loving this new era.

Spot on. I left Canada because of all these issues. Any of my friends who are still there simply don’t understand that there’s a long term problem that has nothing to do with US tariffs. The country is weak, poorer than it needs to be, and not in a good spot due to focusing so much on real estate and immigration.

I almost completely support everything he says. My problem comes with his comments on Fentanyl. Please, this medication is a game changer for so many suffering daily in agony with chronic pain or deadly conditions. For those who need it medically, it is strictly controlled and monitored. Fentanyl is “eaten” by pain, so for those who need it there is no high, just relief.\nThose on it legally already have to deal with a great amount of prejudice, being treated as addicts and dealers when they are just trying to find a way to survive immense pain everyday. This medication allows them to get out of bed, to attend school or work, to have a life. It gives them hope and relief. \nThe opioid crisis is real, but those on a prescription are not the cause. Canada already has some of the strictest protocols in the world for this medication, leaving many people in agony as they loose access to it. \nDon’t take away something that is saving them. The drug is not wrong, those selling it illegally are in the wrong.

America ain’t no bitch and with the way Trump is building our economy your country will become broke since you need our money and you charge America 25% while we charge you 10%. Took you 4 years while drug syndicates made labs inside of Canada and shipped the drugs into America from Canada! AMERICA FIRST

The US has started an unsanctioned trade war against Canada. How is this different than what Russia is doing to Ukraine? The US needs to have sanctions slapped on them by the rest of the world like has been done to Russia.

I have been living in the Canada ? for more than eight years, and even though I am not a citizen, I consider it my home. I’m so proud of you, prime minister Trudeau —this is how a true leader should speak. We are all in this together. Love you Canada ??, and I would give my life for this country if needed. ❤?

What Trump is doing is collecting money from these tariffs, while at the same time bringing certain industries back to the United States. These tariffs will not be permanent but will remain for a certain period to encourage companies to relocate. He runs his country like a business, he doesn’t care if there are job losses elsewhere.\n\nCanada and Mexico will have to adjust and start becoming less dependent on the United States. It will be difficult for Canada because we are a consumer country, we manufacture almost nothing. TSMC is moving to the U.S., his plan is working, and other companies will follow.\n\nHere in Canada, we import a huge amount of American products. We absolutely need to change our habits, we should not support a country that wants to see us fail.

Maga means alienating our friends and cozying up with Russia. As an American, I’m so embarrassed by our leadership. Canada needs to loosen their strict immigration laws. Millions of Americans want to get the fuck out of here. We love our northern neighbors, but they will only consider the super-wealthy as candidates.

We need to fire Trump! He is the one harming Canada, but Trumps Tarrifs will hurt Americans!! Inflation will go up, groceries up, gas up and electricity up, etc. Trump Musk, all his workers should be hand cuffed and arrested as Terrorists!! Thanks, Dump Trump, for crashing the rest of our lives in America.

I am trying to get my Architect's license but immigration Canada keeps giving all the Intern Architect jobs to immigrants instead of Canadians like me who want to build more housing. If you want more housing then you need to give future real estate developers like me a job as an Intern Architect. I can't build houses if I am unemployed.

Canada blowing smoke. Canada and EU have always charged USA with high tariffs where the USA did not reciprocate. Now we will level the field. Do your research people. Canada needs the USA, USA does not need Canada. This can be all solved on tariffs if all countries do reciprocal %'s. Doubt that will happen.

No more buying US. No visits/ holiday's. No stocks. Cant help but feel this is what trump and musk want, i.e. to have stockmarket get weaker so they can buy more. \nLook over there...(aligning with Putin dictator, Bullying zelensky, illegal firing staff, tariffs, accusing zelensky of propaganda as US fox news is known for it) whilst they shake markets up, risking world war 3 for multiple reasons. With the Supreme court in his pocket, the US is following Putins lead and becoming a dictatorship. The law is far to pliable there at this point. \nAll those voted Trump in and think he is making America great, you are DILLUSIONAL!\nHe will take you and your families down.. the young get sent to war, the old asshole sociopathic men sit by the fire protected. It took a very long time for Germany to escape the reputation after Hitler. You want the rest of the world to disdain and never trust your country and people?! Germany recovered, but it was painful healing. \nHow bout Trump sleeps out on the streets, deals with fentanyl addicted unsupported US citizens and veterans or get sent to war? Or what about his children or grandchildren?! Would he care if they were called to stand for the country if WW3 broke out, because of him? Trump truly is making a statement... he gives 2Fs about the people, totally self serving. For the capitalist bullies who love money at any cost..even blood money... non of your investments will make a difference if you have no heating, water, food, jobs, lost family members through war and crap health system... not an ounce of love, respect, compassion, respect, leadership in the US government. The World can be better. Choose better... for all that is sacred... stop the madness!!\n\nWell done Canada & Trudeau... love and support you beautiful people. ❤\nLove and Strength to the people of Ukraine around the globe. I pray for this nightmare to end in your favour. For your loved ones to be safe and protected and that you can be reunited once more. Love and praise for Zelensky...you are a phenomenal leader. May you receive the support needed to end the war.❤\nHang tight US citizens who wish a very different US .❤

Trudeau's words are smoke and mirrors a bit imo. Liberals will go forward with an additional 20% carbon tax dispitie the tariffs occurring. Trump isn't the only one that is harming Canada in one way or another. Trump is forcing Canada to do better with our borders and crisis's that had not been addressed quickly enough. We (Canada) allowed these issues to get out of hand and it took another country to tell us that we needed to do better because the issues affect them as well. I'm stating facts here and now we Canadians will suffer for all of it.

Canada will feel the pain in time lol yall need us we dont need you
