Sounds impressive (sarcasm)! Did Trump’s cronies help you put your “plan” together during your last visit?

While Global News provides the stage, Danielle Smith delivers a masterclass in the St. Petersburg playbook, using a $60 oil dip to justify a referendum that reads like a manual for national collapse. It is impressive how she pivots from a $10,000 "vacation" at Mar-a-Lago to suddenly worrying about the "sustainability" of the very social services she’s busy undermining with tiered citizenship and constitutional power grabs. Most Canadians are either too polite to say it or too blinded by the flood of compromat to notice, but this isn't provincial leadership; it's a performative libertarian fantasy designed to fracture the federation while the RCMP and CSIS are left watching from the sidelines. Apparently, "taking back control" means handing the keys to whoever is currently whispering in her ear at a Florida golf club. It is high time we stopped pretending this regional arson is "direct democracy" and started calling it the sovereignty-shattering interference that it actually is.

This is the problem: Temporary workers are temporary. Their arrangement stipulates that they work in-country for a number years, and then return home. Yet, many temporary workers are under the impression that they're actually semi-permanent residents. That's why they invest so much, expecting to be able to stay indefinitely. It needs to be made clear that temporary means temporary.

i like being a multi culture country (canada) but different cultures have there strong points and weak points . mostly if there coming from another country..for example im by a college.. alot of indians. so there smart and keep to themselves..(good thing i guess) but if you try talking to your indian neighbour there anti social with you. (bad thing) im white in a small biker town.. were generally friendly with first impression but can be judgemental. so. take people for who they are.

I gotta admit im impressed, you took a huge risk filming some of that. You got balls of solid rock and you're a great journalist.

I was NOT expecting Tyler to come to Canada, I'M ACTUALLY IMPRESSED THEY LET YOU IN!!! The fatigue is BEYOND real.

I always got the impression that the NDP leader forced Trudeau's hand. Why doesn't anyone look into what exactly went down instead of lazily saying Trudeau is to blame for everything?

Wow. Such a massive change in such a short period of time. I'm impressed. A country within a country becoming just as successful. Who needs to assimilate ?

MRG is a formidable interrogator. Very impressive speaker.

You guys wanna blame the immigrants but why dont you blame canadian born citizens that dont give a rats ass about getting a job? Its not the immigrants fault all those homeless people are white Canadians. They didnt make them homeless why are you rilling up the Canadians and giving them a bad impression of brampton and not give the counter argument? Seems very facetious.

The points system is why Canadians have a good impression of immigrants. When you let in english or french speaking well or over-educated new citizens, people will have a good impression of these hardworking people. When you let in gobs of just anyone.. you end up with Brampton, Ontario, or Sweden, where foreign nationals have brought their own opinion of how life should be to a previously high trust/well functioning area. Like the opposite of gentrification. Basically slumification, a reduction in trust, an increase in crime, an increase in corruption.. Who would have thought there would one day be new Canadian citizens calling for Sharia Law in Canada? That is when immigration "jumped the shark", and the system needs fixing. And Canada already has the fix: Limit immigration to economically well off migrants who meet the points quota: ie, they are educated and speak english or french. And greatly restrict refugees... we have enough homeless and economically useless people, we do not need more.

I am very impressed. Such a chancellor we need in Germany.

He memorized the whole speech. impressive.

Very impressive speech.

It is so weird to be impressed by normal behaviour and conduct! The felon rapist occupying the White House sure has changed the world. Mind boggling how stupid the US citizens really are for electing him. USA should truly be renamed: Dumbfuckistan! (Worst of luck to you in the future siding with North Korea, Russia and Hungary.... you know -The shit hole countries).

Trudeau should call Trump, it's set so high at 25 to make some sort of deal. I get the impression that Trump would like Canada to set up some shops in the US and get some benefits to help build the shops. When a new tariff is put in place, you have to call Trump to remove the tariff like last time.

What an impressive speech! Go Canada! ?

The first time i actually took the time to listen to this man. This was a smart and impressive speach! (smart guy!)

He talks without looking at the script, impressive!

Wow, Justin impressed me. It made me feel elevated in terms of integrity and doing the right thing.\nCanada has tremendous leaders❤

Mr Trudeau is very clear. No grandstanding. Impressed. Go Canada! ?????????

As an American from South Carolina, I am so impressed and appreciative of Canada and Prime Minister Trudeau. His speech is Sincere and Caring… so Refreshing!! I am with Canada and Ukraine!!

He kept a cool head when DT described it as the 51st U.S. state, with the intention of annexing Canada.\n\nThe fact that he will leave his post as prime minister in a few days has allowed him to speak without complex and without restraint, but also influenced by the serious threat to the country and its economy. He leaves with his head held high with a speech that will go into history, it will be part of his legacy.\n\nThe comments are complimentary of Canada, and it is true that they are kind, caring and welcoming people. To be part of it for 40 years, I am currently impressed by the solidarity of the people who boycott American products in supermarkets. They do not do it to harm the Americans they appreciate (spend their holidays at home) but to punish DT for his arrogance and lies. Human stupidity has no nationality.

I wish the UK had a leader like him! Very impressed with is concern for his country.

As a Canadian, I am not a fan of Mr. Trudeau. But this speech is really impressive.

I will still vote for Pierre when the time comes but man, Justin just impressed me….finally.

Kind of impressed, this is the most clear Trudeau has spoken throughout his entire time as PM. Just when we needed it. Well done!

most impressive

From Japan, I am very impressed with P.M. Trudeau's speech. He should lead the world.

Brazilian here supporting 100% Canadian friends. You guys rock. Well done. Impressive! Love and peace for you guys. Stay strong. Boycott Americans! The world is fed up with this narcissism, imperialism and heavy capitalism that destroys the planet in the name of money!

This is an excellent speech, I'm so impressed

Have to say, I’ve enjoyed watching Trudeau being lambasted on numerous occasions. But this, well done sir. As others have said, this is how grown ups behave. Very impressive.

This is beautiful, how well spoken, how are articulate this is a real leader. I'm so impressed, as an American I am disappointed when Donald opens his mouth. This is a sad day for Amaga's I mean Americans oops. You losers get what you voted for. Where's the low prices?

I am Canadian and I am glad Trudeau is actually hard on fentanyl. Surprise. If so, I would like to know if Trudeau, and his successor whoever that may be, and the Liberals of course, will be just as hard if not harder on fentanyl dealers, users, and criminals. Start by talking to British Columbia, currently ruled by the New Democratic Party (NDP), and getting them to change their soft on drugs and crimes approaches. I await to be impressed by Trudeau, his successor, and the Liberals.

i was so impressed with his speech . It was matter of fact. Amazing. BC

Im impressed i totally dislike Trudeau for what he's done to Canadians but I've never heard him speak so direct to America and Trump

I'm from Poland ?? this was very impressive speech! We will not bow to Putin, not in the past, not now, not ever!

I know a lot of people don't care for Trudeau. I am actually pretty impressed with him, and on his way out, he is showing his strength and intelligence. He has Canada's back even in his last days as Prime Minister. Let's make sure we elect a Prime Minister who is equally strong and can stand up the narcissistic bully called Trump.

Impressed by JT today and I don’t say this lightly

I am so impressed with Trudeau for speaking directly to we American people, and bypassing the trump administration that he knows has its own mission not for our good.

He has really grown apair , I’m impressed

Impressive. CNN has 35,000 viewers and manages 66,000 comments.

Our president can barely speak English and can't string together 2 thoughts without sounding like a fool. I'm very impressed with Trudeau.

In his lowest political position, this speech is impressive. It is directed, aggressive and honest.

Well done President Trudeau. Canada is truly a strong nation. I am very impressed. I am horryfied about whats going on in the U.S

Irish here and very impressed . . . America and Russia can take a run and jump.

I never thought I would be proud of my Prime minister. But Today I stand tall and proud with my government, and feel bad for my brothers and sisters south of us who didnt vote this felon back in. He disrespected so many people in so little time its impressive that some people lacks intelligence and still think he is a fit leader for the free world.

Have just watched “Newsnight” in the U.K. where Melanie Joli was being interviewed. One very very impressive lady - she didn’t pull any punches and said just how it is. Canada is the only country to have the guts to say the truth about the current U.S. administration. Let’s hope more countries have the guts to stand up to Trump.

Has anybody told the Moron that the King he is so proud to have been invited to a state visit with is the KING of CANADA I am sure he is really impressed with the Moron wanting to annex a major portion of his realm and diminish one of the largest countries in the world to 1 state.

Very impressive! Trudeau is an amazing leader, and has certainly addressed properly to Donald. But of course Donald is not interested because actually he loves to do dumb things.
