Why are we insulting Russia. Russia should be our trade partner. Yet, we support Israel. Disgusting. I agree with the tariff stance, but the whole Russia and China criticism is rooted in Canada's relationship with the US. They're enemy was our enemy. Smart'n up Trudeau.

7:00 I checked a tax calculator for Canada, $2710 is not a valid number for $21/hour for 40 hours a week anywhere in the country. The closest I got was $2708. Also, I would love to see a bill breakdown. "$9 for insurance" That is a bill... "I work 8 and a half hours a day" So... That means you work 42 hours a week.
Challenges the accuracy of financial calculations presented in the video and requests transparency in data presentation.

India has 1.4+ billion people — more than all of Europe combined. Migration pressure is global. Blaming Indians is lazy. Blame a stupid government, led by Justin Trudeau, that ignored planning, housing, and wages — and learned nothing from Europe’s mistakes.

Good Luck with that! I mean, what's new? You've had a tariff on the US forever now. Next time Trudeau, you need to grow a set of balls and speak with the president. Don't address the US. Address the president of the United States in person, or at the very least the phone call. Congrats, you just screwed over the Canadian people. So again what's new?
Criticizes Trudeau's handling of tariffs and diplomatic approach, arguing he failed to adequately represent Canadian interests.

Tariffs can be PERMANENT. This idiotic decision could literally ruin the trade relations between the US and Canada forever, especially if Canada finds better deals elsewhere

Prime Minister Trudeau, you don't like trade war coming from Trump. Why then do you start a trade war with China by imposing 100% import tax on Chinese EV vehicles? Double standards? ?

The fentanyl excuse is just that an excuse, trump wants to make money from tariffs to give a huge tax break to the billionaires in the USA including musk, he is not worried at all about fentanyl, he doesn't care about other people, but he does care about tax breaks for himself and the billionaires who support him. I support Canada and Mexico in this trump fiasco, and I hope Canada and Mexico really make trump squirm. trump knows tariffs will hurt the US citizens but he knows it will hit the Lower and middle classes the hardest, not causing him and the billionaires nearly as much trouble. He is hoping that the tariffs will bring in enough money for him to be able to give the billionaires including himself a huge tax break.
Critiques Trump's tariff policy as motivated by self-interest and wealth redistribution, with moral condemnation of inequality.

America's economy was a juggernaut the day before Trump and his greedy band of thieves took over, and our strength was in our alliances with Canada, Mexico, and Europe. Our moral strength was in our unwavering support of Ukraine and opposition to Russia. In barely a month Trump has undermined and destroyed all the trust previous administrations (aside from his own) had built. By trying to rob our allies blind and turn the US into a kleptocracy, Trump is destroying the economy and our standing in the world at record pace. Maybe irreversibly.
Detailed critique of Trump administration policies regarding alliances, Ukraine, and economic/moral standing, with implicit comparison to previous administrations.

American here. Trump is an incompetent man! Not only is his trade war with Canada, Mexico, and China breathtakingly stupid, it also raises prices for Americans, costs American factories jobs, and isolates us from our allies. And just today, Trump paused aid/arms to Ukraine. Putin has no incentive to make concessions now, knowing that Trump has cut off arms to Ukraine. Our apologies to your Canada. We are fucked! If you could put a 100% tariff on Tesla, you'd be doing us a HUGE favor.
American criticizing Trump's trade and foreign policy as economically damaging and strategically foolish, with apology to Canada.
