Canada is basically an oligopoly. The politicians are intertwined with a wealthy ruling class that is extremely politically protected. The influx of immigrants was by design to repress wages and ensure that wealthy oligarchs could continue to pay minimum wage for labor. The politicians get board positions in exchange for these favours. The media is heavily subsidized by government, and Donald Trump going off on Canada and threatening tariffs was all they needed to ensure our conservatives could be painted as traitors to the country and the Liberals could be guaranteed a win so the charade can continue.

Any idiot who still thinks Donald Trump is doing a good job, then I have serious doubts about their critical thinking skills. Today I listened to Donald Trump lie and gaslight the American people, and the spineless Republicans in Congress cheered. What traitors they are to the American people.

I'm ashamed to say that our president is an absolute traitor to our allies and to its people. Somehow his cult followers were able to get him back into office instead of prison. Now all of us are having to suffer please do not lose faith we will figure out a way to get rid of the Trump regime once and for all as well as Elon Musk were so sorry about what they've done there will be payback for them for many levels just know that the United States people love Canada always have always will one of our greatest allies and our good neighbor. Sorry about Donald Trump he's a prick

PM TRUDEAU, Vive le Canada!! Stand tall, most Americans did not vote for Donald Trump the traitor, compulsive liar, his new play stooge - Elon Musk, who was not an elected official - he bought his “special employee position” by donating\n$6 billion to his presidential campaign! \n\nTrump is not trustworthy, he never was, he’s a compulsive liar, always was, he manipulates people - always did to get his way, he doesn’t know American history or European history- never did, he adored reading about Adolf Hitler and how he manipulated the German people to turn against Jews and minorities just like what is being done today by his REPUBTARD PARTY who are afraid to stand up against SATAN -this is who TRUMP sold his soul to to gain the White House including Putin,

Donald trump is a traitor Donald trump is going to make his United States week Donald trump Is a dictator himself No ally shoe Negotiate negotiate with Donald trump He is evil Is dictator He's a bully and a gangster I can't wait to the 4 years go by for he could get the hell out of the I can't wait to the 4 years go by for he could get the hell out of the white house By Ukraine By Ukraine Negotiate negotiate Do not negotiate with America Until Donald trump gets out of office The allies The Together

I will never call Donald Trump a President. I don't believe I did the first time he was in the White House. Now I call him Commie traitor.

Mr. Trudeau you are wrong about Donald Trump, he is the biggest fraud that has ever been President of this country! Please don't blame all of us for this moron who had an election bought for him by a Nazi, Elon Musk! Hopefully the two clowns, Trump and Vance meet their end before our country is destroyed1 They are both traitors to Democracy and deserve the fait of Traitors!

Donald Trump is a traitor! Remember when they had that meeting, Donald Trump, Putin, and North Korean dictator they didn’t invite Zelensky, after this meeting that’s when Donald Trump, was putting pressure on Zelensky to sign the mineral contract that’s why Donald Trump was acting the way he was acting, because Putin was mad at him. You wanna know why, one of his top KGB generals retired. He said that Putin help Donald Trump win the presidency in 2016. He said that Donald Trump owe them all this was in the same time all this happened. That’s why Donald Trump has got pressure on his ass. Putin is putting pressure on Donald Trump. Donald Trump is the People’s enemy and that’s what I see. I’ve been following this liar since the apprentice, he is a liar and the father of the lie”

Donald is not a smart man of course. But, in terms of approaching a fascist and a criminal, since Canada will be hurt, Trudeau has to be the decent guy he is. Brilliant speech, the best I have heard ever. The guy is poised and knows how to speak. He is smart and compared to him, Trump is incredibly stupid. Bravo. Let me be clear, Trump is a traitor, a bully, a conman, totally lacking in compassion...he is driven by his perverse megalomania and narcissism. He is, in reality a very mentally sick man. And the Republicans are his pathetic cowardly accomplices. Given the continued support, Trump will run American into the gourd, even risk a war to get the attention he needs so badly.

It makes perfect sense because Donald Trump is a Nazi and a Nazi supporter that will turn the US into an axis power. As if our reputation wasn't bad enough now America will be the most hated country in the world and it's all thanks to Republicans and Maga Republicans who should now ALL consider themselves traitors to the flag. If you support Donald Trump you are a coward, a xenophobic sycophant, a bigot, a white supremacist, and as i stated earlier, a traitor. Treason is punished by death in some lands. The American people won't allow this dictator for long. Even if it causes a Civil War within our own country. Trump will not last a full 4 years in the Nazi House. The people will end up getting tired of it, and then Maga will know what it's like to fear for their lives. Its going to unfold terribly for our country and I hope all of our allies will forgive us after the Trump Nazi Regime is removed.

*DONALD TRUMP IS A TRAITOR TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! HE MUST BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE IMMEDIATELY NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES!*\n*THE VERY SURVIVAL OF OUR NATION, OUR DEMOCRACY, OUR SOCIETY, OUR PEOPLE, AND OUR IDEALS DEPEND ON THIS!*\n*IN FACT,...OUR VERY EXISTENCE ACTUALLY DEMANDS IT!*

Donald Trump is shame of America.\nHe is the traitor of national interests.\nThank you, mr. Trudeau.\nWe all very sorry about it.

Its hard to believe that we are a pariah state now. Donald Trump is a traitor.

People need to understand that the damage and fallout that will certainly come from all of the things that Donald Trump is doing is intentional. \nTrump's efforts to weaken NATO, destroying our relationships with our long-standing Western European allies, creating friction and distrust with our border countries of Canada and Mexico, taking a wrecking ball to all of our governmental institutions that hold this country together, sowing a lot of hatred and distrust among American citizens along racial and ethnic lines, using tariffs to destroy the American economy, efforts to cause Americans to lose trust in our courts, justice and Healthcare systems, trying to Villianize Zelensky of Ukraine while praising the dictator from Russia, is all part of a plan to weaken or maybe even destroy our country and to allow Russia to rise.\nIt is painfully obvious that Donald Trump is an agent for Vladimir Putin and Russia against the United States, Ukraine and the democracies of Europe. \nDonald Trump is a traitor! The Republicans in Congress need to do their jobs and remove him from office ASAP!

there is no point in speaking to donald trump as if he is an american who cares about america. he doesnt. he is bought and paid for by russia and only works for THEM not us. hes a traitor and a disgrace

Donald Trump isn't a smart guy. He is a treacherous traitor and needs to be impeached and then removed

Donald Trump is a scumbag traitor to the United States!

Manchurian Candidate, Anti-Christ, Quisling, Traitor, and just plain dumb as can be ..That is Donald Trump ..

I love his code switch to talk directly to Donald: “big things”. LoL. Trudeau is showing how leadership is done. Trump is a traitor.

Donald Trump is an idiot owned by our enemy Putin. Trump is a traitor.

Sir, you do what you need to do for Canada. You cut us off you raise tariffs and do what’s best for your country we American people understand that Donald Trump is ignorant. He’s an idiot. He does not care about nobody but himself and his billionaire friends thank you for what you’re doing. Stay in your ground and do not give in to Donald Trump. He’s evil and a traitor he’s Putin‘s bitch thank you sir.????????????

Dear CNN, \n The last time Trump went to Ruzzia to 'Negotiate' anything, he curiously left behind his Translation Team, his National Security Team, AND his Intelligence Team and walked into a room with Putin, (who had ALL those things with him). This resulted in D.J. getting pumped for info for around three hours. This 'Info' Putin has managed to use to great effect, as he entered into the Ukraine War, and now Donald wants to 'Negotiate' with Putin AGAIN on behalf of Ukraine?!? Trump doesn't even use the CIA for his geopolitical briefings, he actually uses 'Private Services' for his info, (at Taxpayer Expense) largely I'm sure, because anyone who is close to being Competent at what they do would 'KNOW' things, and would be correcting Trump, constantly, which he hates with a passion. On top of this there's Tulsi Gabbard who the Ruzzians themselves have publicly stated IS an Agent of theirs for the last Decade. It's for these reasons and more that I say D.J. is a Traitor to this Country for the love of money. \n How much more of an illustration does one require for a 'Worst Case' scenario?!? A 'Rogue Actor' taking control of the U.S. Government with full access to it's Nuclear Codes. It truly makes more sense to go Radio Silent with America, (for the time being at least) and co-ordinate with Mr.Zelenskyy as to how you will proceed. I would seriously be 'dragging my heels' on that Royal Invitation as well, as D.J. will completely misinterpret that to mean something entirely else! We in the U.S. are undergoing a COUP, plain and simple. No need to Soft Sell it going forward as Trump and Vance have knowingly delivered us to Ruzzia without so much as a single shot being fired. Thanks for the Post.

This is Disgusting what Trump do. Same with Ukraine, if somebody thratens WW 3 then Donald Trump and Elon Musk. He must get rid of this Traitors around him who tells him all this BS.

Donald Trump is a Russian spy. He has already sold Putin top military documents that he stole from the White House. He’s a traitor. He’s disgusting to the United States of America and he’s not fit for office of any kind.????????????????

America has gone rogue Donald Trump, and JD Vance are Traitors to democracy to their own people the free world it's sickening that the American public could be juped like this for your own good we in the West must stand our ground to this.

Trump is a literary an Russian agent that works for Putin imbedded in American politics!!! \n\nHe is literally trying to destroy America and it's relationship to Americas allies! \n\nHow can russia destroy the undistructable America ?? \n Simple destroy it from within!! \n\nThis conspiracy theory somehow makes more sense than Trump's fentanylls bs reasoning for putting tarrifs to our closest allies!! \n\nThis tarrifs just proves that Donald Trump is a traitor to America

Russians are in the OVAL OFFICE!!! Donald Trump is a traitor and a KBG Plant!! He was recruited by his first wife a KBG agent who was brought to the US in 1978. as part of a plot to break in to the NYC real estate market!!! The idea was to find a way to launder the increasing profits from Moscows drug and gambling operations!!! He has worked with the Russians for many years and is a personal friend of Putins!!!
