Tell those expired visa holders there's no need to worry. Our liberal government has no way of tracking them to remove them. Canada will continue to suffer until the Liberals are out.

He speaks about Putin being a liar, murderous, dictator. He should have a good look in the mirror. Trudeau has been a dictator for the last 9 years in Canada, killing our very own people with his drug laws, taxing people into poverty, destroying our healthcare system, I could go on and on and on. Trudeau and all his liberal cronies should be put in jail for the crimes against canada..
Extensive criticism of Trudeau's government policies on drugs, taxation, and healthcare, with moral accusations of wrongdoing.

Tariffs are acceptable IF the taxpayers get the equivalent amount off their tax liabilities. If not... it's a cash grab by ANY government from their own people.

As a Canadian, the enemy’s enemies are my friends…drop the tariffs on Chinese EVs and put 100% tariffs on Tesla, two birds with one stone

Trump is right about one thing and that is immigration. We destroyed our country through immigration. We can blame the liberals but Canadians are the ones that voted them in and we continue to vote them in! These people didn't even land on our shores on dinghy like in some parts of the world. We welcomed them in with all these loopholes. It's truly disgusting.
Criticizes immigration policy and government loopholes, blames voters for supporting liberal policies, calls for accountability and change.

It's time Canada changed its policies and started deporting those who can not adjust to the Canadian way of life and our culture.

If you come to canada, seeking asylum, or immigrating, they should all be required to work day 1, Healthcare, fine, handouts no. Welfare no. Work. Like my family when they immigrated. All the government needs to do is set up programs with farmers, or any industry to provide worker spots. Fed Government can either top up(not preferred) or like the good old days require an employer to provide lodging, for a nominal rate, towards their total income paid(3 square included). My and countless other families/ people had to enter the country that way, and it worked. So if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
Draws on family immigration experience to critique current welfare policies and propose work-based alternatives.

So many Trudeau Liberal supporters here. \n\nSo now people suddenly forget the damage he's done to Canada the last 10 years and think he's a good leader again? What a shame.

While Canadians argue on social media about immigrants, corporations raise profits, housing collapses, and wages stay frozen. Public anger is pushed downward, never upward.

"Without warning tightened immigration" The last 3 years of Trudeau's reign were Canadians, actual Canadians who can vote, screaming at Trudeau to cut the immigration numbers. Anyone angry about it is just pissed that they can't cry more since Carney isn't making a circus of the whole thing.
Argues that public opinion (actual Canadians) has been demanding immigration cuts, framing the policy change as responsive to citizen demands rather than sudden.
