Just a small word here. Khalistan sikh are not Indian Sikh. They are people who are wanted for various crimes even in India. They have criminal records and India has been requesting Canadian government to deport some of these people to undergo trial in India but Trudeau govt under jagmeet Singh did not agree and so you have crimes happening in Canada but the bad name goes to India. As far as this oppression against minority is concerned all sikhs in India are free to do as they wish in their own land. They have a democratically elected leader and sikhs in India are very happy. Others in India love them and respect them a lot so much so that manmohan Singh became the prime minister of India with zero opposition to his leadership. Abdul kalam who is also a muslim became the president of India. This oppression story is fake. That is one of the ways for this khalistan punjabi apply for refugee status inside Canada. It’s a Canadian loophole they misuse and the worst part is even the govt knows that. They just won’t do anything about it.

I can’t find no damn job. But it’s fine I’m gonna have to go the entrepreneur route. If I don’t then my future children will be doomed. Why tf is there no diversity at Tim Hortons and Walmart? Fuck you Trudeau. He only became prime minister bcs of his father’s good reputation, and bcs women were mesmerized by his good looks. I’m a CANADIAN CITIZEN and I can’t find no work in this damn country. Trump should prob come here and fix things. Everyone should have an equal chance of getting a job. Diversity and inclusion is important. I don’t expect immigrants to assimilate to Canadian culture but have some respect. Don’t be acting like you run things bcs NOBODY RUNS THINGS. I get that some immigrants come here and work hard to own a Canadian/american franchise or to become a manager, but don’t be hiring your ethnic group alone. The workplace should display a representation of various groups of people. If you can’t simply do that then please ONLY stick to only owning whatever food restaurants that serves food from whatever country you came from.

RESPECT FOR PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU

From India, wish we had a prime minister like Trudeau! One who shows integrity, strength and sensibility. Support & respect to Canada, Ukraine & EU!

Respect to Prime Minister Trudeau. You have shown your country you a worthy Prime Minister to fight for the good of your country

Americans Support and Respect Canada, Canadians and Prime Minister Trudeau.

Bravo Mr. prime Minister Trudeau! Much respect from this American citizen!! Trump is a stain on our nation!!!!!

Okay okay Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau, you have got my respect back as I see where your loyalty lays and that is with Canada. Well done sir and well articulated. I have never been so disgusted in a leader as I am with Trump and his people including his goofball sidekick.

My heart hurts watching this. As an American, I respect and agree with Prime Minister Trudeau. Canada has been a kind and generous ally, and our current government leaders are just coming up with excuses for this stupid ass trade war. \n\nI am so sorry to all the Canadian citizens whom this negatively impacts. I hope you will show grace to those of us who voted against Trump and who continue to stand up to this tyrant.

Prime Minister Trudeau, please be aware that Americans the majority of the Americans today do not stand with this…. I truly believe most Americans have woke up they had the FAFO and do not condone him aligning himself with Putin. You’ve been more respectful by even calling him Donald because I call him either this or 45. Thank you for being true our true allies to America.

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau! I wish I could respect American leaders as much as I respect you! Stay strong Canada!

Thank you, Prime Minister Trudeau, the sane Americans still love you and your great country. This government is not who or what I voted for. I am so sorry, friends. I think MOST of us do not want this either. Our government is a failure and we need to change it. We, the people. The REAL people. Not the fake numbers you hear about from this corrupt administration that lies like it's their religion to do so. Keep doing the right thing for your people, and know you have our respect. Also, please have mercy when many of us seek to move to a more civilized nation.

I always respect and love Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau because he’s a great person!!! I’m so proud of you for what you did for your country!!!

Prime Minister Trudeau appears to be a wonderful, self-respecting man, \nBut he does not appear to be a true leader,\nHe seems to have been so focused on expressing his personal swag that he has put the country in danger.

So much respect to you Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Salute!

No one likes Trudeau not even most of his own people go away already you ruined Canada . Get a common sense PRIME minister that can bring back Canada to its glory a respectful SUPPORTER from the U.S.

One thing about Justin Trudeau. \nHe's an excellent talker but the worst Prime Minister Canada has ever see.\nDon't be fooled by his nice hair and speech. It's because of Trudeau Canadians are not able to afford housing and taxed to our eyeballs. \nBecause of Trudeau, our drug problems are at rising high like we've never seen before.\nHe does nor respect Canadians although he talks the part yet he pulls the emergency act on the Canadian truckers and froze anyone's bank account that donated to protest against him. A man dressed in sheep clothes but a wolf inside that will do anything to make himself rich and first. Meanwhile single moms are suffering because they just can't make ends meet. \nThank God he has been called to resign from his own party. \nWe need a leader that will be intouch with the everyday Canadian worker. It's not Trudeau.\n❤Canada. God Keep Our Land Gloria's and Free.\nYes We Will Stand On Gard For Thee, because Trudeau didn't.

So proud of our country and Prime Minister. Thank you, Mr Trudeau, much love and respect.

With a dish, respectful Prime Minister like Justin Trudeau, if I were President Donald J Trump I would immediately double the Tariffs. And I live in Canada. \nIt just shows that on his way out, he doesn’t care a bit about any Canadian . They was so many things Justin Trudeau has done in his tender being Prime Minister wrong

Prime Minister Trudeau when you start out your speech please stat half of America wants to have a trade war with us: because the other half of Americans does not want to have a trade war with Canada. I have been to Canada a hundred times in my lifetime since I live close to the Canadian border and I've always respected Canadian sovereignty also, that Canadian is our best partner and friend. Keep calling out TRAITOR TRUMP, the MAGA ACOLYTES and the so-called Republican party GOP that PLACE Putin over Canada. I don't know what Putin has over TRAITOR TRUMP or how much vested interest TRAITOR TRUMP is getting from Putin. The Canadian border is the largest undefended border in the world. To our mutual friends sorryl about this AUTOCRAT.

I appreciate Prime Minister Trudeau! And I have much respect for Canada! ?? ? \nI’d like to see us recover relations with our allies and strengthen communication so we all can work together toward peaceful resolutions. This will help trade as well as climate concerns. \nIt Certainly Can Be Done! We must bring the best communicators to the table. \n(And begin with prayer because all peace begins with God!) ??️?

Trudeau is a liberal jerk that has resigned as prime minister of Canada. He has lost all respect of Canadians. And who is paying attention CNN. THE WORST NEWS ORGANIZATION IN THE WORLD.

Fine speech, Prime Minister Trudeau! Very civilized and thoughtful. As an American, you and your countrymen have my full support and respect. You also have my sympathy for having to deal with the criminal in the White House and his incompetent lackeys.

This is a leader. So thankful this man is leading our country on this day. He will be greatly missed. Much respect Prime Minister Trudeau. ❤??❤️

From Puerto Rico thank you for being the adult in the room and speaking with honesty and respect, thank you Prime Minister Trudeau and beautiful and strong Canada!

What a fantastic speech from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivered with respect, with no name calling and lies.

Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau Thank you, Great speech thank you to make this nation united. I love this land and respect this wonderful Country.

And cue the childish insults and cycle of rage treats from Trump because he lacks the basic leadership skills of service and maturity.\nNote:.Prime Minister Trudeau is a leader that all Americans can admire and respect.

Like the vast majority of Americans, may you know that my husband and I feel the same way as you, Prime Minister Trudeau! We are appalled and disgusted with the catastrophic damage that our government is causing to our dear allies, and it grieves us deeply that Putin is being treated with respect while we are literally stabbing our loyal, long-standing allies in the back. I have no words to convey our absolute horror in the face of such disrespectful, disgusting, and dangerous behavior! Our sincere apologies, and may God have mercy on all those souls who have already paid the highest price for these selfish, power - driven decisions!

American here, Canadians are our neighbors and friends. It is understood that Trumps actions will hurt all of us. We know that Canada must take action. Prime Minister Trudeau is a wise leader. I respect his actions.

THANK YOU PM Trudeau! As an American who grew up on the Detroit/Windsor border, I love our Canadian friends. And it hurts my heart to see what’s happening right now between our countries. I HATE this administration. I have never once voted for the man who sits in the Oval Office right now. But I will respectfully disagree on one thing with you - that man is not a very smart guy. Otherwise, if he were - this would not be happening!! Bless you Prime Minister. ??

Since when is calling Trump Donald harsh? The rude president call him governor Trudeau! At least Prime Minister Trudeau was respectful!

Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau, my heart is filled with such adoration. Spoken so concise and eloquently as a leader, yet remaining respectful. Thank you for standing up for our soverenty as an independent nation (not a 51st state) and us as Canadians will stand together with you through this unnecessary tumultuous storm. Again, we thank you ?? ? ? ❤️

Trudeau needs to cut all lithium to the States, that will hurt his puppet Musk. This isn’t what Trudeau or the world wants, but this is Donald Trump that has no reasoning.\nI live in the Uk and have respect for the Canadian prime minister.

I’ll say first that I’m a Canadian…\n\nTrudeau and his government has been in power almost 10years and in that time Canada has gotten progressively worse—the drug crisis; immigration; inflation etc etc. I find it shameful that it took a foreign leader (Trump) to ignite changes within my country. Are the tariffs fair to Canada? No, absolutely not but Trump is not the president of Canada—right, wrong or indifferent he’s looking out for the US. \n\nJustin Trudeau is a corrupt lame duck prime minister who technically resigned a month ago. \n\nTrump will listen to Canada and respect Canada when a new government is place

I applaud our Prime Minister for holding his ground amidst internal turmoils. It only takes a lost, uninformed person and misguided (?) person like Donald Trump, to sabotage the special relations between Canada and the U.S. \nMr. Trudeau, your eloquent speech depicts your patriotism and passion. And yes, these are the wise words of a a mature person who is firing up the patriotism as he leaves the office. Respect !Mr. Trudeau?

Eloquently spoken, and respectful Prime Minister Trudeau

Well done Mr. Trudeau, he is no longer Prime Minister of Canada. He can express his thoughts openly and honestly. Without harming relations between our countries, he can put diplomacy aside, while expressing himself in a respectful manner. Ukrainians must fight against an invader and put their lives in danger. Our invader is purely economic. Let us hope that all Canadians will show as much determination and respect for moral principles. Not to bow to a lawless mentality.

Trump insists on an apology from Zelensky because he claimes that Zelensky showed him respect - and at the same time Trump calls Justin Trudeau - who is the Prime Minister of Canada - for governor. Talk about showing respect. So I'm going to call Trump a smallminded, vindictive megalomaniac, a pathological liar and a sick narcissistic baby. Nobody respects Trump; they fear him because he is an unreliable madman with a lot of military strenght and (so far) economic strenght he can threaten everybody with. Pictures of Stalin and Hitler must be hanging in his bedroom...

Hugely impressive, factual and genuinely heart touching. Wish Prime Ministers/ Presidents of the other countries were at least One Tenth of Trudeau’s capability. Respects to this great democracy !

Being a Canadian, originally from South Asia (NEPAL), I would like to express my huge RESPECT to our honorable Prime Minister ! A political leader of a country should be like Mr. Trudeau!!!\nRespect ?and proud of you, Hon. PM !

As a Canadian I have to say that Trudeau is the worst Prime Minister in Canadian history! He destroyed our country and economy. He doesn't respect Trump and Canadian people. That's why we are in this mess!

From Ukraine with respect. A few decades ago our school hired a Canadian as a native speaker to teach us some spoken English. He was not very smart and made some grammar mistakes here and there. But what surprised me is how on his 1st day he tried to make a joke, smth. “We, Canadians, have nothing to apologize for, except for Celine Dion”. He startled to giggle, searching our faces for a sign of approval. There was none! We love Celine! To this day it astounds me how many Canadians badmouth their great singer or their own Prime minister. What is wrong with you? Like every Canadian I’ve met kept saying many unpleasant things of Trudeau. You should be proud of your prime minister the way you are proud to be Canadians and slow down on insulting him!

From the Netherlands ,well spoken Prime Minister Trudeau , A rusian puppet in the White House , Your soldiers and the other allies liberated us from the Nazies 80 years ago ,we respected the US presidents from then on , but this Trump started floting due to lack of weight. Lets hope the Us peoples can solve this before it is to late. Tank you President Trudeau for speaking frankly the thruth.

Mr Prime Minister Trudeau you spoke so well. Thank You from California. Respect Canadian.

Thank you Prime Minister Justin Trudeau , I am a Native New Yorker and I Love and Respect Canada and it's people. You are doing what you must do in the best Interest of your country. \nOur Illegitimate and Treasonous Leader Is not only a danger to The United States, But the World as well. WE are all Praying for the day that he is held accountable for all of his Crimes. And Removed from all our Lives for good.

Trump says EU tariffs will ‘definitely happen’ as Mexico, Canada and China retaliate \nTrump takes softer line on UK, saying ‘I think that one can be worked out’, while Mexico and Canada vow levies and to strengthen ties with each other \n \nPhilip Wen, Léonie Chao-Fong and agencies \nMon 3 Feb 2025 03.57 GMT \nShare \nDonald Trump has threatened to widen the scope of his trade tariffs, repeating his warning that the European Union – and potentially the UK – will face levies, even as he conceded that Americans could bear some of the economic brunt of a nascent global trade war. \n \nIt comes as Trump’s tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, announced on Saturday, sparked retaliation from all three countries. Mexico and Canada have vowed levies of their own while China and Canada are seeking legal challenges. \n \nTrump said on Sunday night that new tariffs on the EU will “definitely happen”, repeating previous complaints about the large US trade deficit with the bloc and his desire for Europe to import more American cars and agricultural products. \n \nEmpty shelves remain with signs ''Buy Canadian Instead'' after the top five US liquor brands were removed from sale at a British Columbia liquor store in Vancouver. \nAsian sharemarkets tumble in response to Trump tariffs \nRead more \n“It will definitely happen with the European Union, I can tell you that,” he told reporters. “I wouldn’t say there’s a timeline but it’s going to be pretty soon.” \n \nTrump appeared to take a softer line on the UK, citing a good relationship with prime minister Keir Starmer while saying tariffs still “might happen”. “The UK is out of line but I’m sure that one, I think that one can be worked out,” he said. \n \n“Well Prime Minister Starmer’s been very nice, we’ve had a couple of meetings, we’ve had numerous phone calls, we’re getting along very well, we’ll see whether or not we can balance out our budget.” \n \nIn Canada, the department of finance published a list of US products imported into Canada that it will target with a 25% retaliatory tariff starting on Tuesday. \n \nThe list shows products that will be hit in the first round of retaliatory tariffs by Canada starting on Tuesday, and mounts to $30bn Canadian dollars’ worth of goods (about US$20bn). The impacted products include tobacco, produce, household appliances, firearms and military gear. \n \nCanada is also preparing for a second, broader round of retaliatory tariffs in 21 days that will target an additional C$125bn (US$86bn) worth of US imports. The second list would include passenger vehicles, trucks, steel and aluminum products, certain fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, dairy products and more. \n \nFILES-US-CANADA-MEXICO-CHINA-TRADE-TARIFFS<br>(FILES) US President Donald Trump speaks to the press after signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC on January 31, 2025. Trump is imposing steep tariffs on major US trading partners Canada, Mexico and China, with a lower rate on Canadian energy imports, said the White House on February 1, 2025.

Sheinbaum, in a statement on Sunday, said she will announce details on her government’s “plan B” as she insisted that Mexico “doesn’t want confrontation”. \n \n“Problems are not addressed by imposing tariffs, but with talks and dialogue,” she said. “Sovereignty is not negotiable: coordination yes, subordination no.” \n \n'Coordination yes, subordination no': Mexican president responds to Trump's tariffs – video \nSheinbaum and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau spoke by phone on Saturday after Trump’s administration imposed the new tariffs – 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, with a lower rate of 10% for Canadian oil, and 10% on imports from China. \n \nTrudeau’s office said in a statement that Canada and Mexico agreed “to enhance the strong bilateral relations” between their countries. Canadian officials have had extensive dialogue with their Mexican counterparts, but a senior Canadian official said he would not go as far as to say the tariff responses were coordinated. \n \n“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau posted Sunday on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.” \n \nTrump acknowledged the sweeping tariffs he has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China may cause “short term” pain for Americans as global markets reflected concerns the levies could undermine growth and reignite inflation. Asian markets, cryptocurrencies and US and European stock futures slumped in early Asian trading on Monday. \n \n“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said. day, Trudeau said: “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.” However on Sunday evening, a senior government official from Canada briefing reporters in Ottowa on condition of anonymity said: “We will obviously pursue the legal recourse that we believe we have through the agreements that we share with the United States.” \n \nThe official said the Canadian government considered the move by Trump illegal and said it violates the trade commitments between the two countries under their free trade agreement and under the World Trade Organization. \n \n“If other legal avenues are available to us, they will be considered as well,” the official said. \n \nCanada is the largest export market for 36 states, and Mexico is the largest trading partner of the US. \n \nCanada and Mexico ordered the tariffs despite Trump’s further threat to increase the duties charged if retaliatory levies are placed on US goods. \n \nChina also said it would file a lawsuit against the tariffs. The imposition of tariffs by the US “seriously violates” World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement, urging the US to “engage in frank dialogue and strengthen cooperation”. \n \nFiling a lawsuit with the WTO would be a largely symbolic move that Beijing has also taken against tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles by the EU. \n \nThe commerce ministry also said the tariffs were “not only unhelpful in solving the US’s own problems, but also undermine normal economic and trade cooperation”. China has said it would take countermeasures to “safeguard its own rights and interests”. It is not clear exactly what form these will take yet. But for weeks Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning has said Beijing believes there is no winner in a trade war. \n \nLate Sunday night, Trump said he would speak with Trudeau on Monday morning and shortly after said he would speak with Mexico as well, although he did not specify that he would speak with Sheinbaum. \n \nBeyond the official response, people were already thinking of ways to cope with Trump’s decision, including by sharing suggestions on social media for alternatives to US products. \n \nCanadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem on Saturday night at two National Hockey League games.

Joseph Chua, who works as an importer, said he expects to feel the tariffs “pretty directly”. “I’ve always stood during both anthems. I’ve taken my hat off to show respect to the American national anthem, but today we’re feeling a little bitter about things,” he said, adding that he will start to avoid buying US products. \n \nIn the streets, people in Mexico were trying to absorb the announcement on Sunday, although some in the capital acknowledged that they were unaware of the measures. \n \nIn the border city of Mexicali, across from Calexico, California, some people were concerned about the wider implications of a trade war. \n \nDriver Alejandro Acosta says that he crosses the border weekly in his truck to deliver vegetables to US companies. He said he fears US businesses in the Mexicali Valley will no longer want to operate in Mexico and they will move to the US. \n \n“If they raise taxes on the factories here, jobs may also decrease,” he said.

Notice this is a biased report. The reporter calls Trudeau. Prime Minister but calls Trump Mister. No respect Givin

I don't care what anyone says, but Indian people, particularly (Punjabs) don't like to mixed with other cultures at all. They don't integrate with the Canadian lifestyle. They don't worked very hard, they are rude, they have no respect for other nationalities, racist as fuck, and the list goes on. I have been living in Canada for 34 years and I have never once felt isolated. Now, I feel like Canada has become India. I'm sorry, Trudeau have turned this Canada into a 3rd world Country. I missed Canadians! I don't have an issue with immigrants at all; as I am an immigrant myself from the Carribean. However, I have always respected Canadian culture and their laws. I'm sorry, India is the number one hated Country on the planet as we speak. England, Australia, & many other countries are not allowing Indian students to enter anymore. The proof is in the pudding! They are just bringing all their bad habits wherever they go. So it's not only Canada that's fed up, there are lots of Countries that cannot stand their attitude and erratic behavior. They have very low standards if you ask me.\n\nI can't wait for the day to see Canadians working the fast food &service industry again. No offense, but I rather be served by Canadians than Indians. I don't have to put up with their rudeness lack of communication skills. We all have have our opinions, but facts and numbers don't lie. Deport! Deport! Deport! I am also fed up with what they have done to this once, beautiful Country! Thank you Mr. Trudeau! The number one hated person in Canada and the worse Prime Minister is the history of Canadian politics! Indeed sad and depressing to say the least!

Trump is repeatedly insulting Canada and its Prime Minister but Dustbin Trudeau does not have the courage to say anything to protect the self-respect of his country & such people will now teach India what India has to do?
