Wait, Trudeau is still around? Btw, Not a trade war (which Canada would get destroyed in), but more of a border war. Simply police our mutual border better and make our trade fair— that easy!

Just look at Trudeau’s new $4.6M estate in Quebec less than a year after out as PM.

Criticizes Liberal government spending and immigration policy as causing economic deterioration, combining personal grievance with systemic critique.

Retired canadians RNs served canada 25 to 35 yrs and can not get a Doctor. We are not training our own young canadians, look how many doctors trained in canada are foreign. Also the doctors that used to migrate in 70s, 80s 90s often British Scottish, Irish, South Africans with a different work ethic and most were surgeons and anesthesiologists or obstetricians. Great skill sets.
Commenter critiques immigration and healthcare policy, arguing Canada isn't training domestic doctors while noting historical immigrant doctors had better credentials and work ethic.

Fentanyl is just an excuse for the tarriffs as only 0.2% of Fentanyl crosses the border into the U.S. It’s drug cartels from South America that are trafficking the majority of drugs as well as gangs in the U.S. as well. \n\nBut it’s telling that Trump just ignores the fact that Americans themselves have a huge opioid crisis or what he’s doing to stop it but instead he’s blaming Canada which is just BS!\n\nTrump is a traitor to American Allies!
Presents specific factual claim (0.2% fentanyl statistic) without evidence while critiquing tariff justification and policy logic.
