Trying to escape fascism.

Fascism.

On many hindu festivals or birthdays, my family donates or leaves food at the superstore Food Bank. we don't check who is taking it. Always paid taxes, that's my responsibility not doing any favor. Illegals and criminals must not enter. Indians should hire and do business with the whole community, not just Indians. Do not try to save miscreants or rowdies in the name of community. Speaking your own language, celebrating your festive must not be a problem. Fascism wont be tolerated. Make Canada Great Again

As a german i hope Canada can joyn the EU or at least the european trading zone. When one of the most powerful countries in the world turns to fascism and tyranny it's time to stick together

As a Brazilian this final season of earth is stressing me the f out, billionaires should not be allowed to exist nor intervene politically, old felon lunatics should not be allowed into the government either, fascism should be a crime, we are doing everything wrong, geez, if these crazy dictators don't end the world, nature will end it anyways, it's unbelievable.

As a Swede am not setting fot in the US until the Musk/Trump oligarchy is removed from power. The world stands with Candada and against the Trump daily madness, except North Korea and Russia of course who are very pleased with the anti-democratic and fascism and populist Maga movement under Trump.

Canada fought fascism in the 1940’s and we will fight fascism in 2025.

The world is going to going to come to oppose your ignorant fascist government. Nothing good comes from fascism.

Trump wants to be the new Putin and if you can’t see that then you are either dumb or love fascism.

La Russie s'empare de l'Ukraine et d'une partie de l'Europe avec la complicité de Trump, lui il va s'emparer du Canada après l'avoir asphyxié économiquement, du Groenland et bien entendu de l'Amérique du Sud ou déjà son ami nazi Musk a financé la campagne du président d'extrême droite nazi Milei! \nEt pour couronner le tout, Trump abandonne les Taïwanais en espérant que les plus grosses entreprises qui fabriques les microprocesseurs s'installerons aux USA en laissant derrière eux une population aux mains des chinois !\nBienvenu dans le monde merveilleux du fascisme et du nazisme capitaliste made in USA et un grand merci à ses sponsors, Tesla, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, des marques et des réseaux sociaux à boycotter donc, car l'argent est bien le nerf de la guerre !!!\nDe France, Slava Ukraini ?? ??❤

Americans stand with Canadians. Please fight this fascism. Our hands here are already tied.

I am so proud of my Father, a US citizen who joined the Grenadier Guards and fought in WWII. And for this administration to turn their backs on our allies is a travesty. It is an insult on the veterans who gave their lives to fight fascism. Not all of us voted for this BS.

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.

America has fallen to fascism. There’s nothing Americas allies can do when the USA is siding with Russia.

Love to Canada ?? ❤ support from Nevada, USA to fight against Trump/Musk fascism. ✌️?

This is what a real leader looks like. From and American who is sad our elected (and not elected...) officials slip further into fascism. Love my Canadian brothers and sisters.

As a Frenchman, I give my full support to the Canadian people in their opposition to Trumpist fascism.

What about transgender, racism, fascism and all the woke shit??

America helped the Free World in WWII...\nIt s time for the Free world to save America from fascism !!!\nThe mission of Trump that Putin ordered : blow up the Free World and democracies from inside !\nTrump wont succeed!!!\nThats our promise !!

During the Second World War Canada punched way above its weight in supporting it Allies and defeating Hitler and the scourge of fascism. It’s not a country or a people I’d want to take on lightly but as Prime Minister Trudeau highlights this is going to hurt US citizens as much as Canadian.

You said it all in the beginning of your speech. Donald is attached to Putin. They have a goal for this idiotic plan to alienate Canada. We Americans do not want affiliation with Russia or Fascism.

I L❤ve Canada ?? and Canadians are reasonable intelligent people across the board. Thank you Canada ?? for standing up to Fascism all over the world ?

Remember, lunatic MAGA voters voted for this. They were told this would happen and they refused to listen. Bunch of bigoted racist hateful assholes who ruined the American economy and its trade relations with its allies. Just know that tariffs are the least of your problems. The sentiment from across all American “former” allies is to completely boycott American goods and services. And that is not going away regardless of whether tariffs on either side are dropped. You want fascism, good for you. The rest of then sane west ain’t with you. Get rid of your pro Putin fascist Nazi saluting government, then we might be open for negotiations.

DJT is in FACT a Russian Operative. He works for Putin and is dismantling the US piece by piece until it's too weak to be completely taken over by Fascism

It’s most of the world, and sensible Americans who employ common sense and logic vs tRump and his neofascist agenda. In professional wrestling terms, the U.S. has turned “heel,” but the now occupant of the White House, who should’ve never returned, always has been one. I don’t understand his appeal, and why so many Americans have been sucked into his orbit.\nI don’t want this, many tRump voters don’t want this. This’ll adversely affect the world, and will do nothing to reduce the nearly $2 trillion deficit. tRump’s tax cuts for the wealthy, and fElon Musk’s austerity measures will, and already are raising unemployment, and will further increase the divide between the wealthiest and most marginalized among us.\nThe U.S. siding with Russia, the two countries having the biggest nuclear stockpiles, is a threat to the world.\nIf WW3 starts, it won’t be because Zelenskyy won’t act to end a war in which his country was unnecessarily invaded, it’ll be because of Russia’s invasion of it, and the U.S. turning its back on its now former allies.\nThose of us in the states who oppose tRump and his alliance with Putin need to continue to stand up, speak out, and perhaps even do more. We’ve never seen anything like this before. Hate to say it, but this could very well be the beginning of the end of what was once a great nation. I’ll end this with a quote from FDR.\n“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.”

America is lost to fascism. Who would have thought that two years ago. Guess the turkeys went and voted for Thanksgiving.....

Bravo Prime Minister Trudeau. Unfortunately Donald Trump will destroy the US. Canada will grow stronger without US. It is regrettable that the current Trump administration is destroying the strong relationships between US with Mexico, Canada, Europe, UK, China, Middle East and Africa. Canada will always stand for democracy, freedom and justice even if this current administration refuses to do so. US and Canada has fought WWI, WWII, Korean war, Vietnam war, Iraq war, Afghanistan war together. As brothers in arms both have fought, bleed together against fascism. What Donald is doing in the US is as close as it gets to fascism in America. During this difficult time in American history more than ever America needs to trust in God. God bless America land of the free home of the brave. Let's pray that God will intervene through prayer to bring America to depend on Him once more.

We need a leader as intelligent and capable as Justin Trudeau. Canada, standing their ground may be our best chance to impeach the disgusting dictator in our country. Canada? Are you ready to accept any Democracy loving Americans who want to escape fascism? We would love to be Canadians!??

Trump and his real President 'Mucks' (sic) we absolutely hate u and your electorate for the decimation and fascism you are inflicting on the world ... from UK a distant cousin and now a disaster 'crash and burn' waiting to happen.. ur delirious (Gaza Riviera, Canada 51st state, Greenland, Gulf of Mexico, Panama Canal) ..fork off to the right

A.H. in 1939, D.J. Trump in 2025 : different century, same objective, same behaviour, same ideology : fascism. People from the World, prepare yourself for WW3.......and I am unfortunately not kidding and disagree with that idea, but I do not see any other exit to Trump's madness or, should I say, objective...Trump voters, you choose this fate, you'll pay the price of it as every human being on Earth; don't think you'll be spared because you voted for that psychopath. He will not protect you from a nuclear war.

This is mirroring the 1930s, its like Trump WANTS the economy to crash to control the people and enforce fascism

Bravo Bravo monsieur Trudeau. Danger FASCISM is back with Trump. ?

These are things our government is doing in full sight in order to distract all attention to the chaos ensuing, so that the WH can pursue even more nefarious projects behind closed doors. Poisoning democracy in an attempt to bring us to our knees before oligarchs and fascists. Trump has made it clear he seeks to be a dictator. Please research how fascism develops. Please people, don’t swallow propaganda initiated by the putin regime. \nTrump seems indeed to be a putin regime asset. Why else destroy all ally relationships?

Justin Trudeau with iron in his voice. Thank you, Mr President. As a British person on my side of the Pond, these are welcome and necessary words. Let us all in Britain and in Europe echo Mr Trudeau's sentiments. We want our friendship with America back, intact, but it requires the removal of Trumpism and fascism from the American psyche. American democracy can come back better and stronger in the absence of its current madness and malaise. Trump is not a President. He is a Pretendident.

I'd like to see the leaders of the remaining free world to establish a New Deal with the poor and middle-class. The path we've been on leads where the US has ended up. Extreme wealth inequality destroys trust in the democratic system and we end up with violence, insecurity, and fascism!

How can some of US citizens who want to flee growing fascism come to your country legally?

Canada: There are plenty of Americans 100% with you and the rest of our allies. These are not my presidents (we apparently have two) and my sincere hope is that they will not only be removed from office very soon, but thereafter tried, prosecuted, and imprisoned for high treason against the United States and for defrauding its people. Those of us not fully brainwashed by the right-wing propaganda apparatus are seething with rage and focused on fast and appropriate justice, however it must be achieved. This criminal behavior masquerading as politics will be punished to the maximum extent of the very laws that are being scoffed at by Trump, Vance, Musk, and the rest of the mafioso GOP. History will correct those that choose to remain in tow to lawlessness and treason, and oligarchic fascism will not hold sway in our nation. Let this moment be a powerful reminder of how fragile democracy is and how vigilant we all must be to preserve it.

This is how fascism begins. First you find external enemies, then you arrest students for protesting, and then the whole country becomes the slave of a crazy old man. It happened like that with Hitler, it happened like that with Stalin, it happened like that with Putin, it will happen in the USA.

As a Canadian, I can assure you CNN and all Americans, Canada will not back down. Remember this pain your country will feel is not what Canadians want, but our response to your President’s stupidity and apparent new support for our mutual enemy Russia. Get you country back. You are sliding into fascism and authoritarianism. We hope you right your ship.

Well in approximately 3 hours as I am typing this, thanks to Fascism in America, our Economy will collapse.

Fascism at its finest

Look at how many Indian people voted for Trump, as if they would be exempt from white supremacist fascism. Of course they’re deporting all non-white people. When you don’t educate yourself about the past of the USA, this is what happens. Of course you were “treated like criminals”, didn’t you hear Trump’s racist & xenophobic language the last 4 plus years?!

Sadly, these people probably voted for the fascism.

Looks like FASCISM, sounds like FASCISM.... Oh wait! It is FASCISM!

Trump should be stopped- he has no respect. Trump Elon and the Maga cult are the ones who should be shackled as Trump is a convicted felon and insurrectionist and with his cult is dismantling the Constitution of the US and destroying democracy… he is following Hitler… this is how fascism works - please read History of Germany through the 1930s. This is shocking and a shame. A felon and insurrectionist does not follow the rule of law and hence the madness of what is happening to so many people there. May God save America and democracy from autocratic oligarchy.

This is fascism / Racism in it's finest form !

WELCOME TO AMERICAN FASCISM

Trump has united Canada. As a Canadian I am proud to face this fight on behalf of the entire world. My parents suffered in the fight against fascism, its now my turn. Shame on America.

Politicians are having fun while the regular man suffers. That's fascism for you
