It's no trade war, it's protectionnism. Something you should have done way before in your 10-year tenure. Also, he's not allying Putin, he's negociating on behalf of world peace. You don't get what you want by insulting people, so thinking Putin will cease fire and retreat if you call him names clearly isn't the solution. It hasn't worked for three years, why would that change now? Also, stop giving away our money to Zelenskyy. Sit this one out, Justin, we've had enough. Respectfully. They're 10 times bigger than us and we have no leverage whatsoever. Inflation is at an all-time high, people can't handle more. Please. I'm sure you're great outside of work, I'd share a beer anytime, but this has to stop. Please.
Critiques government trade and foreign policy decisions, arguing for protectionism and reduced international spending, with respectful tone and economic reasoning.

He is working like a true Demonrat. They lie blame for his own doing. Where was your friendship Trudeau when your corrupt friend Biden inflated the Americans people? You didn't want to meet with Mr. Trump (who you say is your friend) to make fair and balanced trade. That seems like a one-sided friendship and we are about COMMON SENSE. Trudeau, you are putting Americans and Canadians through this because you don't want to see that Mr. Trump just wants fairness and for some reason you want tariff wars. That's the truth and you need to start speaking truth and quit misleading people with lies! That's why the democrats have been defeated because they are corrupt and they lie to the people.
Extensively critiques the political figure's trade and diplomatic decisions while invoking fairness and truth as moral principles.

@scooter80stv Mar 4, 2025
Everything the Liberals touched over the last 10 years is now broken. Carney is a Century 100 advocate so I can’t see him fixing anything.

Canada has issues, for sure. But a lot of them stem from the issues the whole world is going through. The fallout of neoliberalism and the crashout of the USA. To say Canada has an everything criss because stuff is kind of expensive and our businesses are lacking as the US right below us fully descends into fascism is pretty ridiculous.
Defends Canada's situation by contextualizing domestic issues within global economic systems and comparing to US political crisis.

Canada must understand United States is not the enemy. There is a common enemy for both Canada and the United States which is China. Canada should focus on countering China and not the United States.

And there's nothing we Americans can do about it because the clowns that Republicans elected are working against their own constituents because they are afraid of an ignorant narcissist who is manipulating the government completely for his interests and out of revenge for those who indicted him for all his illegal activity. He continues to skate above the law.
Critiques American political system and Republican governance while implicitly contrasting with Canadian approach.

Finally Trudeau is talking sense after 9 years of rubbish from him and his Liberal government, I guess he really doesn't care because he's fianally quitting and we are getting a new leader!?!?

Decades ago I remember the argument "you're not allowing the parents of immigrants to come to Canada" and the response of "that will destroy the CPP"' being discussed in the news and Parliament for quite some time. Seems we've gone from one small ditch on one side straight over the cliff's edge on the other now.
Historical policy analysis comparing past immigration debates to current situation, suggesting overcorrection from one extreme to another.

Here is reality check why Canada grants visa to these people which you are claiming threat to locals and dirty etc. becoz Canada has channel to seek asylum seeking visa for these people ask policy makers not on roads who used the policy to go there
Defends visa/asylum policy by pointing to official government channels and redirecting blame toward policymakers rather than immigrants.
