5:06 dude is a savage! Love his honesty, so refreshing. I completely disagree but its honest.

Makes sense ... how could any reasonable Canadian disagree with this

He wants to have a slave class to serve the elites. 95% of maid is white people. Now fast tracking citizenship for Chinese mercanary soldiers and taking our guns for the 3rd time and spent billions and aren't getting guns but this time they will and Chinese mercenaries have no ties so they will have no problem turning their guns on us. I believe he is planning a genocide of older people to save money on Healthcare after all death cures everything. His orange man bad narrative is going to come true if he thinks trump will put up with massive immigration and ccp soldiers in our military. Carney has so many conflicts of interest he is tanking canada on purpose so he can sell his green scam tech which surprise is owned by Brookfield a Canadian company which he moved to New York to avoid paying our high taxes. He is the biggest security threat to canada ever he is a madman ,arrogant prick that needs to go to jail along with his gangster liberal buddies. I cant believe how lefties believe his b.s every word out of his mouth is a lie. He attacks Pierre and he is not the government and says its a global problem. No its liberal mismanagement and corruption. The election is over after ontario and quebec votes because its gerrymandered with not enough seats out west because they think we are children and we pay the bills and no immigrants are working i get taxed 1500 on my 1450 pension to pay for these parasites. Carney talks out of the side of his mouth id love to play poker with him he cant lie worth shit. There is no way these policies are put in for any reason other than to impoverish us they are ridiculous. How about the teacher in hope b.c who got a 750,000 fine for a perfectly reasonable post about trans insanity. They say they are going to give it to lgbq+ offended teachers. You disagree with the government narrative they freeze your bank account, cancel you and bankrupt you all in violation of the charter of rights and freedoms. There not even trying to hide their dictatorship with their new kings clause where a company thats in with pm can basically break Canadian laws if pm says so. I hope ee get invaded i will never go to a hospital to die . In ontario 65 people got maid in 24 hours without talking to family and without life threatening conditions. This guy is a co trol freak has to be stopped now

Pierre is 100% correct on this and those who disagree have zero facts to back them up. Their criticism is the " tone " Pierre used. What a joke! You know Liberals are completely wrong about this because they try to smear the Conservatives!

I will definitely be voting against any and everything Daniel smith is proposing. It’s all trying to get albertans to sign on to separation from Canada , Something I totally disagree with.

I disagree, this mass migration was planned by G7 countries

As a Canada who speaks both French and English and who follows politics quite closely, I have to say that the headline and some of the reporting here is quite misleading. A reduction in immigration has broad support across Canada. I wouldn't say that notion is dividing the country in any significant way. You do have certain industry groups that disagree, but among the population these reductions have broad support. This is a historic change in public opinion in Canada, but it has been driven by the unprecedented increase in immigration under the last term of the Trudeau government. To put this in context, non-permanent residents in Canada numbered around 1.5 million on Q3 2023, but by Q3 2025, that number sat a just over 3 million. The previous government increased immigration targets by 3 or 4 times over what they had been for years, which caused a number of economic issues. Essentially, the volume was simply too high for the economy and society to support. This was unfair to both Canadians and new comers, many of which could not find employment or afford a decent place to live. The changes being suggested are largely bringing Canada back to what the targets were for over a decade before, though a bit lower to account for the sudden surge. Canada remains one of the most pro-immigration countries in the world. However, and this is where I think DW's reporting is misleading, there is a distinction to be made between policies at the federal level and policies at the provincial level. Immigration, per our constitution, is a federal matter, however, Quebec in particular is distinct from other provinces. I don't mean only culturally and linguistically, but also in the powers that have been devolved to it by the federal government. On the question of immigration, Quebec has more powers and more ability to set its immigration targets and programs than any of the other 9 provinces. The particular program discussed here, the Quebec Experience Program (PEQ), is a particular immigration stream that only existed in Quebec. So what is happening with that program cannot be labeled as a whole-of-Canada thing. Where the changes to the PEQ are controversial, unlike the general changes at the federal level, is that people who immigrated under that specific program were promised certain things. There was a multi-year time line to Permanent Residency and then Citizenship. Many of those people have been in Quebec for 5-8 years already. However, the changes made to the program were done in such a way where people who many years into the program, had gotten an education, started a career, had children, ect. are now being told they can't continue and must leave Canada. There are even stories of people who married Canadians, now have children, and the one parent who was under this program now faces the possibility of having to leave Canada and be separated from their family. All through no fault of their own. That is what many people see as unfair, and I agree, however limiting future applications under the program, to bring in less people, that is not controversial. Canada has no responsibility to bring in people who are not already in Canada, but Canada does have some responsibility towards people who uprooted their lives to move to Canada and built new lives here based on promises and representations made to them by the Canadian and Quebecois governments. We should no simply kick those people out of the country.

why put so much focus on a poor guy with obvious mental problems is not fair to the population living in that city. But ya, we can not disagree, East Indians are taking over that place, and many other places in Ontario. Not their fault I would say, but a really badly managed immigration fuck up thats not gonna end well I fear.

Can't even say I disagree with the guy on the bike.

My parents immigrated in the early 90s and I was born in Canada. It’s very hard to relate to the new immigrants in the last 10 years because we’re so different. The families that immigrated in the 80s and 90s had to assimilate and become “Canadian” which in hindsight was for the best. I learned about my culture and language at home, but my parents, emphasized the importance of being “Canadian first” and being a part of society and “fitting in.” This wasn’t at all a bad thing. I learned to ski, skate, make ice lollies with snow and syrup, went camping, played sports… I feel embarrassed when Indians are looked at in this light, but its true. 90% of this new wave of immigrants on “student visas,” dont intend to actually obtain any sort of an education, instead they use it as a pathway for permanent residency. I know this because I have relatives who say this out loud behind closed doors. I don’t agree with any of it, and quite frankly it’s very embarrassing, but most of us first generation Indian Canadians feel very upset about how its all played out and the negative light in which our people are now viewed under. Personally, I agree they arent interested in becoming culturally Canadian, they just want to be in Canada for financial reasons. They stay in their groups, dont integrate and think somehow this will play out well. It isnt discrimination when your own people also feel this way. I have yet to meet a first gen Canadian who disagrees

As a republican, I seriously disagree when Trump says we're going to make Canada the 51st state for this reason. Theyre all Indians, Muslims, and liberals there. Why would we want them voting in our elections

Bro, your mother is dirty. Disagree without dehumanizing. Criticize ideas, not entire races or nations. Verify before sharing. Refuse to amplify content that thrives on outrage, fear, or humiliation of others.

Indians are in fact not nice people, as a Canadian I can confirm this and I'm not sure why everyone disagrees. They only hire each other, they are extremely rude and refuse to interact with anyone who isn't them, and they bring their class system they have in India here as well. They are some of the worst people I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with.

Though I disagree with the immigration, the old guy in the Sikh temple is actually right about what he's preaching. Not to mention the Sikhs are known to be what Indians should be like. These people feed the homeless out of their own expense, actually help their communities and improve the quality of life because they are progressive with their views regardless what your race is. If only every Indians are like the SIkhs.

14:41 This person is lying through his teeth about Hinduism, they are everything that stands against unity, liberty & fraternity. As a person who lived in India, and understands their culture, I disagree with this person.

Jfc Michelle, I know you have a job to do and I'm not disagreeing with you... but damn, let people finish a sentence. Just because you're in a rush, doesn't mean you have to be a turd.

I don’t disagree that people on a student visa should go back once the visa expires. a lot of responsibility falls on IRCC and immigration/ government to actually have everything regulated and documented. IRCC is impossible to get a hold of. Applications open people apply.. they get in and then the government forgets about them… the students and work permit people once they land have no idea what is going on. No place to live.. mental health.. tons or restrictions. Don’t invite guest for a sleep over if there is not extra bed in your house. Say the guest then decides they can just sleep on floor or sofa and you keep letting it happen over and over with no boundaries but also just say that they are not welcome. So again it’s the person who invites the guest who is responsible for clear cut communication, deadlines etc

I strongly disagree with this we now have police officers in turban not excitable turbon is not part of the uniform if you cannot wear the uniform you should not be an officer plain and simple don't apply for a job you can not fulfill

US CANADIANS NEED TO ACT FAST & NOW ELSE THEY WILL TAKE OVER OUR BELOVED COUNTRY & IT'LL TURN INTO THEIRS WHICH WE CANNOT ALLOW! SPREAD AWARENESS & IF THAT DOESN'T WORK THEN WE NEED TO TAKE ACTION & ANYONE THAT DISAGREES STAY OUT OF OUR WAY OR WE'LL WALK OVER YOU! #CanadiansFirst

I disagree with one thing you said at the beginning of this well done video. You said have we become too passive or too conservative? No, Conservatives haven't had a voice in the past 10 years. We've become too Liberal. It was JT with his government and advisors like MC, who did this.

🇨🇦 I disagree with premise that only "high skill" immigrants should come. Economies need ALL types of workers & those low skill jobs have to be done by someone. According to free trade economics, open borders would maximize world GDP. As for housing market, why not let housing be more mobile & smaller, tiny homes.

Not a word about this in the election from Hot Air Pierre, but now your conservative rag has an opinion since India is no longer funding the election for your man. Not that I disagree that immigration in Canada is a broken mess, but now that pp mentioned it this week you’re blowing his horn. 🤔

Most of the people don’t realize that Trudeau has helped people and businesses during COVID and avoided millions of deaths unlike US. He did really well curbing the inflation by increasing the interest rates and decreasing it back in time, has been polite to all the haters at the same time and brought enough workers into Canada to prosper the country and businesses on the right path. 2/3rd of the Canadian population disagrees, and that’s sad. God Bless Him Forever.

I am an American and I stand with Canada, Ukraine, Europe and all allies America had before Donald. At least half our country disagrees with Donald's administration, and I hope that more will join our numbers.

Hmm, i disagree with one thing he said Trump is certainly and definitely not smart, WTF!....why wld anyone say that???

Trudeau. On CNN giving a speech because no one in Canada cares to listen to him anymore. \nTrudeau, giving a masterclass in pompous posing and self importance in front of the cameras. \nTrudeau, a Zero's Hero! \nTrudeau, the 3 time blackface wearing semi-whiteboy champion of Multiculturism. \nTrudeau- Defender of Woman's rights!!- until you disagree and he throws you under the bus. Trudeau, a man's man! A ham's ham!! He is Justin Trudeau! \nTrudeau is the kind of guy that wakes up the entire family to let them know he's going to bed...

Only thing I disagreed with Trudeau here is that he called the orange buffoon a smart guy.

There's only 1 statement I disagree when he said Donald you're a smart person...\n\nNot at all Donald you're the dumbnest person on earth a disgrace to humanity

I'm going to disagree with Trudeau on one critical point, Donald Jackass Trump is NOT a smart man. If he was, this wouldn't even be happening.

Trump has low self-esteem and wants to troll people and our allies by linking himself with the disagreeable Putin to shock the world!

I totally disagree with Trudeau. Trump is not a smart guy, he's a moron.

I have to disagree with a point made by the Prime Minister; Donald Trump is not a smart guy. He's a dangerous moron and a con man. I don't know what else we Americans need to see to learn this plain truth. If I were Canadian, regardless of my political persuasions, this is a speech and a stance to be proud of.

I hope the video analytics show how much Americans agree with you and how much we disagree with our government leadership.

I As an American citizen can only hope that we would have a president in office with the intelligence, compassion and dignity that PM Trudeau has. At this time I am truly ashamed of my country. Especially the ones that put this hateful, revenge seeking, criminal monster in our White House. I stand with you 100% Canada. I also hope that maybe within the next year, trump will be gone. I don't know how or where but just gone. As intelligent as prime minister Trudeau is I have to disagree with one comment he made. trump is NOT a smart man. He is nothing but a 34 count convicted felon, rapist and criminal wannabe dictator. I shudder at the thought of the end of his four year disaster. What will our country do when we have no allies whatsoever. He loves russia and putin, His puppet master. He does not understand that Russia has never been our friend, is not our friend. And never will be our friend. He just loves putin because He wants to be just like him. He is the United States very own Adolf Hitler. Also , I have removed our flag from my front yard that I so proudly displayed my entire life. It will be raised again but only after this nightmare called trump is gone! Please accept the apology from millions of Americans that stand with you. We are truly sorry and we are suffering with you. God help us. And God Bless Canada ❤

Two languages huh, our knucklehead can barely speak English. We are so screwed, buckle up Americans this is going to be bad, very, very bad. I would disagree on only one thing this gentleman said, DONALD IS NOT A SMART MAN, HE IS AN IDIOT.

I respectfully disagree with the general. Trump is not being duped by Putin. Trump is an ally of Putin.

Canada, the American people stand with you. Personally I wish that Justin Trudeau was our president! Although I have to disagree with you, Trump is not at all a smart man. In fact he is the exact opposite. He is an imbecile! Undoubtedly, he is the worse thing that has ever happened to to the United States! The people of America needs to get rid of Trump!\n\nBut thank you, Justin Trudeau, for standing up for Canada and all of your reactions is just! Continue to defend your country. You are doing an outstanding job!

Current republican here. And although i dont usually see eye to eye with CNN's points of view. I'm here seeing what the 'other side' thinks on this topic. And I don't disagree with everything they said. Don't be too closed off to hear good ideas from someone you may not suspect to have them. Just listen and be willing to hear.

I disagree with him. Donald is clearly not a “very” smart guy. Even a person with average IQ would make so many and so big poor decisions. He is a muppet on the hands who realized how easily he can be manipulated. Most unAmerican president in the history of USA. Worse than Nixon. Danger to USA and American people. As long as he is the president. We can no longer say POTUS is “the leader of the free world “ He prefers murderous dictators. Not the free world.

Go ?? ? I do strongly disagree with you Don is not smart he has a below room temperature IQ.

President Trudeau, thank you for speaking directly to us. There are many Americans who disagree with him and his administration. We are doing our parts here. \n\nPresident Trump and his MAGA Republicans who sold their souls to aligned with a dictator. \n\nAs for the MAGA supporters, gee thanks.

The only thing I disagree with Trudeau about is,\nNo,Trump is not a smart guy.

I only disagree with one thing, Donald is not a smart man

One thing I have to disagree with:\nTrump is not a smart man.

As a Canadian, we love everyone! Except bullies and people that create wars and attack innocent people. I have nothing against people from U.S or Russia. I disagree with there leaders however. I don't like our leader but when you start a fight I always was told to never back down. Trump doesn't want to work together. He wants to crush everyone and destroy. NUTS! Canada will fight a bully always. We are also the friendliest people in the world.. Just don't piss us off!

I must disagree with PM Trudeau. These tariffs are dumb and yes Donald Trump is a very dumb person and not qualified to represent the USA. Oh before I forget how soon do you think he will drop all sanctions aganist Russia and their dictator.

I disagree with the really smart comment, unless a clown,buffoon, smelly bloated, evil man could be considered smart

This dude shut is entire country down if you disagreed with the made up science during covid, sure orange man is bad, or so CNN says, but this guy is in an entirely different class. Also tariffs are dumb.

Justin Trudeau I believe what your saying and I totally disagree in Trumps tariff wars. I am sorry we are here. When Trump asks again about become a state of America tell him to go screw himself.

To any Americans reading this: We love you. We have fought and died along side you on the battlefield for many years. When pearl harbor happened, we declared war on Japan before even you did. When 911 happened, we allowed your planes to land in Canada. We fed you and housed you. During the LA fires, we sent firefighters and water bombers to assist. You have always been our closest ally, and vice versa. You have always been able to rely on us. \n\nThat stops today, thanks to your president. Make your voices heard if you disagree with what is happening in your country. His diplomacy and tariffs will hurt the both of us. A lot of Trumps rhetoric is nothing but bald faced. inaccurate BS. We hope you see the truth with your own eyes and work to fix the damage Trump will cause.
