We are SO SORRY, Canada! \nThere are MILLIONS of American’s who feel the same… “Make it make sense?!” Thank you Canada for years of wonderful relations. This is what the people want to continue. Thank you PM Trudeau, for speaking the truth and speaking directly to us and our current, unfortunate leadership with facts and decorum. We applaud you standing your ground. Stay strong against our bullying government. It’s a sad, sad time. ❤️‍?

LOL... That fool (Trudeau) has NOTHING Americans want or need. America has more oil than ANY country in the WORLD....\nCanada NEEDS America! FACT! NEVER FOR GET THAT you Canadian people!

Trudeau does not represent the peoples feelings or wants. \nJust remember that USA

Trump just wants Trudeau to act like a man. Since that's not possible, the beatings will continue.

You mean exiting Prime Minister, that Canada doesn't want, that is why Prime Minister Trudeau is backing down and quitting from his own political fight. Don't forget Prime Minister Trudeau froze Canadian citizens bank accoiunts for protesting goverment Covid-19 vaccination manfates.

Very good summary. I will add that our I know you wanted to be concise and you nailed it. For anyone who is curious about how our politics make everything worse for us federally, let me explain it in a short time.\n\nTrudeau as of the day of this video, March 3, 2025, is STILL the PM. He said he WOULD resign once a new leader was picked through a democratic process. Right now, he's basically just doing photo ops in Ukraine, UK and anywhere else on our dime because Parliament is prorogued and the party in power, Liberal, is having a leadership race. So, while he may resign within the week once that leadership race is done, he's still technically in charge.\n\nWhat makes that race and the PM's prorogation so bad is that we're in the middle of a crisis - several actually - caused in part directly by Trudeau and his Liberals (and the NDP supporting them). The latest would be Trump's tariffs starting today, March 4, 2025. Trudeau always disappears during a crisis, leaving us to fend for ourselves - (1) COVID, he was at the cottage using every excuse not to be accountable for anything or using unconstitutional powers to crush a protest he didn't know how to handle, (2) Chinese spies, he's ignoring our intelligence service, (3) federal worker strike, he's in NYC at some gala.... I could go on but there's a reason we're hurting so bad.\n\nWe have zero federal leadership, and a federal government that makes things worse for us with things like: over-regulation, subsidizing media to keep us misinformed, nerfing select natural resource sectors but favoring others (oil and gas suffer, while coal is fine... probably because we sell it to China, but I digress), letting criminal out of jail, uncontrolled immigration, passing policies like the FHSA that drive home prices higher and higher, and of course, more and more taxes. I could go on about the billions in taxpayers' money the government blows - it's like a black hole - or the fact that MPs keep getting raises - April 1 is their fifth since COVID - and most federal and government employees are all getting raises at a time when the rest of us are learning to get by with less and less because we're taxed so much and housing, groceries, etc. are so unaffordable.\n\nI have applied for US citizenship. I want to stick around to fix Canada, but I think it's too far gone. We have too many socialists/communists in power and they're not getting voted out any time soon. It's been fun Canada, it's been fun.

As a Canadian, I would really want to become the 51st state so I could stop using these Trudeau pesos.

Now you gotta watch that side of the Border more than ever Trudeau WANTS someone to attack America...........Canada is as Bad as MEXICO they let all those illegals flood our country and both knew what they were doing ........... MEXICO & CANADA need to pay for what they did to America...........MAGA

India has most imagrants settling in Canada, Africans settled in Jamaica soon Canada will look more like India mutch like Jamaica looks like Africa. As long as imagrants are law biding that's growth. Shouldn't be bias and welcome imagrants. USA has Soo mutch land to offer only kamala Harris plan to open boarders more to India Pakistan failed. Trump like controlled boarders were Canada Trudeau welcomes imagrants from Pakistan, India. Trudeau's lust and lack of brains towards sinful same sex. God says in holly Bible in Leviticus same sex is sinful. Foreign countries imagrants flee to Canada and USA to practice sinful same sex. With crime increasing with imagrants stolen cars as shipped over seas, Canada has to deport all criminals and there whole family only then would imagrants be mindful knowing they'll get there whole family deported at this point its a joke biggest gold hesist at Toronto airport prime example besides imagrants on news always for crimes like crime theft, sexual crimes, fraud. Welcome to Canada were leaders are too bussy making corrupt deals for new highways, (Ford) Trudeau's biggest latest scam high speed rail from Toronto just to Quebec. Forcing every province pay for French scam of year stealing tax payers dollars from all province. Trudeau saying using Canadain steel only was to blindly fool Ontario to think Trudeau's saving jobs when fact is hese stealing tax payers money all across Canada for a French project that only Quebec wants so French can see CN TOWER,NIAGRA FALLS.

In case anyone is wondering why so many Indians are trying to flee Canada here it is. Under Trudeau and the liberal government Canada was basically giving a free pass to anyone who wants to come to Canada through colleges and universities, if you get into a Canadian school, you can get a study permit (which also allows you to work for 20h a week). Additionally after the schooling you are given a guaranteed work permit for the same duration as the schooling (if you went to school 2 years you get a 2 year permit, 4 years you get a 4 year permit, ect.) A Canada and immigration agencies (for some reason) basically advertised this to India as a guaranteed way to get permanent residence in Canada. Canadians hated the massive flood of people coming into Canada (about a million a year at its peak, which for a smaller country like canada is equivalent to 10 million people coming into the USA every year). This is really unpopular with voters of course (in part because of the housing, food, and low skill work shortages it created), and the next Canadian election is this year. So the conservative government has vowed to massivly decrease the number of immigrants coming into Canada and the Liberal government knowing that this can be used against them in the next election is decreasing the amount of PR cards they are given (like a Canadian green card) as well as the people they are letting in in total. Now as the (mostly Indian) immigrants work permits expire and they will soon be kicked out of the country or no longer legally be allowed to work, they are fleeing to NYC to try to take advantage of the sanctuary city (something that does not exist in Canada).

Despot Trudeau wants it this way. Thus the tariffs. Phuck Canada.

Canadians want DEPORTATIONS, but trudeau and his opposition Poliliver refusse .

I believe that Trudeau and his jolly gang WANT the US to build a northern wall. We will then be prisoners in our own country. Heartbreaking. I used to love my country.

So Canada floods our country with criminals while imposing huge tariffs and provocative acts of defiance , shut down the canadian border immediately. Declare Justin Trudeau a wanted criminal within the US and hopefully on a larger scale internationally

I am a white Canadian have family and friends in the USA and I tried to move to the usa back in the early 2000's because I had a job could not do it because I was not allowed but it seems if you are other then white it is so much easier and everyone said I should go now because Trudeau is a dictator and that I am a law abiding Conservative that wants to leave Canada because our PM is nothing but a POS Liberal that is robbing the hard working real Canadians and cutting us off of having a good job because of DEI. They want blacks and browns to have all the high paying jobs while the rest of us get shafted into working for Min Wage or a little bit above while we get taxed to death. and if you look at all the homeless in Canada it's all white people and nothing but it's like the scumbag Liberals want the whites to live homeless or just scrapping to get by below the poverty line. It's really sad that this Country is going this way and wish Trump would come here and just clean out the liberals and Woke POS and send them to live on some abandon Island allong with the criminal Illegals because I am so sick of the BS. The Illegals are taking right over and they are the ones that are killing the people off with the drugs too.

I am a Canadian, All of the Canadian criminals involved should be charged and sent to gitmo since they want in the US. Trudeau and Carny are both assisting (Allegedly) ?

I'm Canadian and totally a shame of our government under Justin Trudeau's open border policies Canadians DO NOT want any illegals immigrants in our country and certainly DO NOT want any to enter the USA. Justin Trudeau is a very evil, vile person who hates Canadian citizens.

Why would these freeloaders leave Canada? Trudeau gives them whatever they want.

Trudeau did that. Blame him. We didn’t want them to come to Canada either. But he is a wef globalist scumbag.

this why trudeau so unpopular no one wants these people only thing i like about pumpkin head is he is sending them back canada should to get out of our country

No one can afford Canada anymore. It's failing economically. Trudeau for prison that Way he can have all the man dates he wants.

Update 3/2/25 Canada and Mexico caved to Trump's demands and are giving him what he wants, the stop the flow of illegal aliens and drugs into the US on the Mexico/US/Canada borders. Canada and Mexico now joins Columbia, Venezuela, and Panama for countries bending the knee to Trump's demands. This video did not age well with Trudeau imposing tariffs on American products into Canada.

Trump says EU tariffs will ‘definitely happen’ as Mexico, Canada and China retaliate \nTrump takes softer line on UK, saying ‘I think that one can be worked out’, while Mexico and Canada vow levies and to strengthen ties with each other \n \nPhilip Wen, Léonie Chao-Fong and agencies \nMon 3 Feb 2025 03.57 GMT \nShare \nDonald Trump has threatened to widen the scope of his trade tariffs, repeating his warning that the European Union – and potentially the UK – will face levies, even as he conceded that Americans could bear some of the economic brunt of a nascent global trade war. \n \nIt comes as Trump’s tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, announced on Saturday, sparked retaliation from all three countries. Mexico and Canada have vowed levies of their own while China and Canada are seeking legal challenges. \n \nTrump said on Sunday night that new tariffs on the EU will “definitely happen”, repeating previous complaints about the large US trade deficit with the bloc and his desire for Europe to import more American cars and agricultural products. \n \nEmpty shelves remain with signs ''Buy Canadian Instead'' after the top five US liquor brands were removed from sale at a British Columbia liquor store in Vancouver. \nAsian sharemarkets tumble in response to Trump tariffs \nRead more \n“It will definitely happen with the European Union, I can tell you that,” he told reporters. “I wouldn’t say there’s a timeline but it’s going to be pretty soon.” \n \nTrump appeared to take a softer line on the UK, citing a good relationship with prime minister Keir Starmer while saying tariffs still “might happen”. “The UK is out of line but I’m sure that one, I think that one can be worked out,” he said. \n \n“Well Prime Minister Starmer’s been very nice, we’ve had a couple of meetings, we’ve had numerous phone calls, we’re getting along very well, we’ll see whether or not we can balance out our budget.” \n \nIn Canada, the department of finance published a list of US products imported into Canada that it will target with a 25% retaliatory tariff starting on Tuesday. \n \nThe list shows products that will be hit in the first round of retaliatory tariffs by Canada starting on Tuesday, and mounts to $30bn Canadian dollars’ worth of goods (about US$20bn). The impacted products include tobacco, produce, household appliances, firearms and military gear. \n \nCanada is also preparing for a second, broader round of retaliatory tariffs in 21 days that will target an additional C$125bn (US$86bn) worth of US imports. The second list would include passenger vehicles, trucks, steel and aluminum products, certain fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, dairy products and more. \n \nFILES-US-CANADA-MEXICO-CHINA-TRADE-TARIFFS<br>(FILES) US President Donald Trump speaks to the press after signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC on January 31, 2025.

Sheinbaum, in a statement on Sunday, said she will announce details on her government’s “plan B” as she insisted that Mexico “doesn’t want confrontation”. \n \n“Problems are not addressed by imposing tariffs, but with talks and dialogue,” she said. “Sovereignty is not negotiable: coordination yes, subordination no.” \n \n'Coordination yes, subordination no': Mexican president responds to Trump's tariffs – video \nSheinbaum and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau spoke by phone on Saturday after Trump’s administration imposed the new tariffs – 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, with a lower rate of 10% for Canadian oil, and 10% on imports from China. \n \nTrudeau’s office said in a statement that Canada and Mexico agreed “to enhance the strong bilateral relations” between their countries. Canadian officials have had extensive dialogue with their Mexican counterparts, but a senior Canadian official said he would not go as far as to say the tariff responses were coordinated. \n \n“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau posted Sunday on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.” \n \nTrump acknowledged the sweeping tariffs he has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China may cause “short term” pain for Americans as global markets reflected concerns the levies could undermine growth and reignite inflation. Asian markets, cryptocurrencies and US and European stock futures slumped in early Asian trading on Monday. \n \n“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said. day, Trudeau said: “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.” However on Sunday evening, a senior government official from Canada briefing reporters in Ottowa on condition of anonymity said: “We will obviously pursue the legal recourse that we believe we have through the agreements that we share with the United States.” \n \nThe official said the Canadian government considered the move by Trump illegal and said it violates the trade commitments between the two countries under their free trade agreement and under the World Trade Organization. \n \n“If other legal avenues are available to us, they will be considered as well,” the official said. \n \nCanada is the largest export market for 36 states, and Mexico is the largest trading partner of the US. \n \nCanada and Mexico ordered the tariffs despite Trump’s further threat to increase the duties charged if retaliatory levies are placed on US goods. \n \nChina also said it would file a lawsuit against the tariffs. The imposition of tariffs by the US “seriously violates” World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement, urging the US to “engage in frank dialogue and strengthen cooperation”. \n \nFiling a lawsuit with the WTO would be a largely symbolic move that Beijing has also taken against tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles by the EU. \n \nThe commerce ministry also said the tariffs were “not only unhelpful in solving the US’s own problems, but also undermine normal economic and trade cooperation”. China has said it would take countermeasures to “safeguard its own rights and interests”. It is not clear exactly what form these will take yet. But for weeks Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning has said Beijing believes there is no winner in a trade war. \n \nLate Sunday night, Trump said he would speak with Trudeau on Monday morning and shortly after said he would speak with Mexico as well, although he did not specify that he would speak with Sheinbaum. \n \nBeyond the official response, people were already thinking of ways to cope with Trump’s decision, including by sharing suggestions on social media for alternatives to US products. \n \nCanadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem on Saturday night at two National Hockey League games.

Joseph Chua, who works as an importer, said he expects to feel the tariffs “pretty directly”. “I’ve always stood during both anthems. I’ve taken my hat off to show respect to the American national anthem, but today we’re feeling a little bitter about things,” he said, adding that he will start to avoid buying US products. \n \nIn the streets, people in Mexico were trying to absorb the announcement on Sunday, although some in the capital acknowledged that they were unaware of the measures. \n \nIn the border city of Mexicali, across from Calexico, California, some people were concerned about the wider implications of a trade war. \n \nDriver Alejandro Acosta says that he crosses the border weekly in his truck to deliver vegetables to US companies. He said he fears US businesses in the Mexicali Valley will no longer want to operate in Mexico and they will move to the US. \n \n“If they raise taxes on the factories here, jobs may also decrease,” he said.

Canadians also want them deported. Trudeau is the only one in the country who doesn’t.

I am a Canadian in Alberta and the reality is that the Liberals have weakened the Canadian economy and our standing in the world. Their decision to cripple our oil and gas industry and our lack of ability export our products elsewhere in the world is an issue created by the policies of the Liberals. To impose a carbon tax and further weaker the average Canadian is terrible. There are some policies I don't like out of the U.S. but the reality is that it is never an idea to pick a fight with the toughest kid on the block knowing you will lose. Trump doesn't even want the tariffs he wants Canada to pull it's weight in defense spending and cooperation. Trudeau backstabbed Trump in the past and that won't be forgotten. We need a new government with a leader that understands more than being a drama teacher and snowboarder. Unfortunately, most of the significant issues Canada faces is the result of self inflicted wounds resulting from incompetent leadership. We didn't have anywhere close this level of issues with the Harper government. We are lucky to have the U.S. as a neighbor so let's do what is good for both nations but there is no way the woke Liberal's can do it.

Isn’t Canada ultra expensive as is?… Trudeau didn’t think this thru… life in Canada just got waaayyy more costly \n\nAll trump wants is to secure your damn borders. Oh but wait that would actually cost you money. \n\nAnd for all the comments about oil/gas\n\nAmerica has our own.. we will be just fine

Trudeau just think about himself, not Canadiens , just want to stay in power, wake up people

It's incredible that so many of the people commenting here don't understand the reason for the tariffs. We're being invaded by illegal aliens and deadly drugs. The point of the tariffs is to prod your leadership into doing the right thing. Stop allowing our country to be flooded with poisons that are killing us. If you're really good guys, you would stand up to the actual bad guy, your prime minister Trudeau. Keep in mind he's flooding your country with dangerous islamists. You should want that to stop

Justin Trudeau is exactly the strong leader Canada need and wants.

We’re just giving the Canadian’s and Trudeau more specifically a bit of a reality check. Youve gotten away with free riding militarily and diplomatically for entirely too long while acting smug and superior. Elect pierre like the people want and well let you come back under the umbrella like a good number 2 should.

I want Justin Trudeau to stay the leader.

This is all bc trump doesnt like Trudeau and wants to hurt him and Canada

Can’t believe Trudeau don’t want to solve the border problem, instead chose to make Canadian suffer ?

Trudeau is a wise intelligent well spoken man....he has a good heart....he is humble and will not allow insults ridicule threats accusations to create division....Trump respects Trudeau...Trump would gladly hire Trudeau...knowing he is an honest truthful trustworthy man...Trudeau word is good and bond....Trump and Trudeau can work well together....Wise men create peace fools create war.....do unto others as you want done to you....is the golden rule....it never fails....in difficult situations good people will outlast fools...Love endures all things....Love never fails....There are bad people trying to control Trump....they are using him as a scapegoat.....

CANADIANS WANT ELECTION NOW! Trudeau must go now! ??

TRUDEAU MUST GO NOW! 77% of Canadians want election now. Canadians cannot stand having Trudeau as PM!

Canadians need to know that this is all the gift of Justin Trudeau! \n\nTrudeau brought illiterate Khalistanis and some Punjabis! \n\nNow they want to blame the whole India!

So why is this happening? Can’t just be Trudeau or the liberals. Don’t like the drug addicts, let’s decriminalize drugs. Don’t like the homeless ? Let’s criminalize that too and shove them into a prison - I’m ok with that. High RE prices ? Not sure why it’s happening but let’s ban foreign money and the idea of a second home/investment property. Like what else do yall want ?

nobody wants them here except trudeau so they can vote for him

India is a big country. Indians in America are the highest earning ethnic group for good reason. Their education and employment backs it up. However, the illiterate bunch that Canada imported from Punjab who by trade are farmers, truck drivers, taxi drivers and other labor intensive workers, is the reason why Canadians are pissed. The majority of the “students” barely speak English, which makes you wonder if the IELTS is even legit. Add the fact that cost of living is through the roof, Canada is a shitshow. The blame goes to: a. India b. Canada \n\nIndia is to blame for not having oversight over these so called “consultants” who help with immigration abroad. These agencies work with fake schools to allow so called students to emigrate. \n\nCanada is at fault for not doing their due diligence when issuing visas. Trudeau is a communist and single handedly destroyed Canada with his buddy, Jagmeet, by bringing all those Punjabis into Canada. Those Punjabis belong on a farm or driving a truck in India, not in Canada. Smart Indians want nothing to do with Canada now and this in turn will hurt Canada grow as a nation.

How many Canadians want to go to India and live, none, you don't like our culture, you want it for yourselves. Why do all these fucked up countries are allowed to come here. Trudeau 1974.

Well miss febby you should come in Canada in 2015 but prime minister Justin Trudeau wanted a real change so now Canada is thirds world

Trudeau needs to step down. No one wants him in power. However he is too arrogant.

As a Canadian PR holder, the immigration system is broken. The fact that people who can't speak English, with criminal backgrounds and unqualified individuals can come in and stay while I had to wait 2 years for background checks and a 8.5 IELTS score, is insane. It shows that qualified workers aren't wanted but rather just get as many people from only one single country in the name of multiculturalism. Another thing which attracted me to Canada was the chance to experience different cultures but all I see are Indians and especially immigrants who don't want to integrate because Trudeau is happy with that and they bring their countries' domestic problems to Canada (read Gaza idiots and Khalistanis)

Good move south and take that idiot Trudeau with you! Wait, Americans don't want Trudeau either, especially President Trump!!!!

As long as Trudeau is in power everyone will want to leave. No one wants to live in a dictatorship where your rights are taken away. You are taxed to death. You can't afford to eat, have shelter, utilities or transportation. People in North Korea are better of than Canadians.

Move to the USA !!! Canada was destroyed by Trudeau. Canada is a colony of England. It must become a Republic to be truly FREE. Why would you want to be subjugated by a white supremacist government on an island in the North Sea. The biggest human rights violator in global history is your colonial master England. You sound like a whiney Millennial.

How can we vote for Justin Trudeau and his ministers then we cannot and if people don't fix a good and not want to do more than 4 years

They've come to Canada to get what they were promised by Trudeau the wealth of mainly Europeans that came since 1867.\nYes Trudewu using his latest MP Marc Miller wants to give them citizenship so they'll vote for Liberala and are able to give citzenship status to family ? still in Middle East and Africa.Nigeria #1 for imkigrants.

I'm canadian & people want Trudeau out of the country. He made Canada harder due to inflation & workplaces underpay people & don't want to keep them employed for too long because of it
