There is a video on how a Canadian citizen should leave Canada and come back as a refugee new immigrant! It's sickening because the government our tax paying dollars are paying each immigrant $224.00 per day to be housed in hotel room and food etc?! This is wrong as how come ppl like myself awaiting to have my knee replacement surgery I am only getting $1208 per month on disability EIA? I am sorry but I was.born and raised a true Canadian citizen from Wpg Mb Canada, I have never relocated and came back to Canada I have always remained here right from first day I was born! I lived threw our most brutal winters we have ever had and yes I lived it and still and were is my $30000 or should I say $53000, $1000 for each year born and raised here in Canada is what it should be!? These immigrants come here need to learn English language fluently both speak and listen in it as well, they should not become a Canadian citizen legally until they have resided in Canada for a substantial amount of time! A Canadian citizenship status should be earned big time no matter where you came flat out before getting any benefits of any kind and be able to buy and sell homes here too!? I find cab drivers muslems mostly very ignorant and rude talking in their language while on the job behind the wheel must add yes ppl driving you to your destination and not to mention do these.ppl stop to think maybe your clients passengers get annoyed listening to that on their ride to where ever,???? NO NO NO!! YOUR WIFE, MOTHER, FATHER OR CHILDREN WHOMEVER SHOULD NOT BE BOTHERING YOU WHILE YOU ARE ON THE JOB WORKING?! When I go to work as a nurse do you see me talking to my spouse or family members while I am helping my clients eat or bath and get dress, NO WAY YOU WOULD BE FIRED!!? Us Canadian citizens need to stand together and our tax paying money we should have a say in where it should be going not to ppl who are not from our country!?

I stand with this woman. I stand with all the people in the beginning of this video as a white man. I see other people, and they see me. You will not judge me for my skin. Cause I do not judge you for yours. I acknowledge that we are different races, but we are still humans, I was raised Canadian through-and-through. To be kind of people is so deeply and rooted in my blood but then it hurts that I let people do the things they have.This woman is right We need to hold people accountable.Canada is not the country it used to be

You are right! Most immigrants who comes to Canada with the intension of changing the culture, religion, and tradition are the one causing all this problems. They monopolize the job market because they create network between their own community. Because of this, the job opportunities are limited for this communities. As for the religious immigrants, they have to stay in their country if they need a muslim nation, because nobody wants it here. This is the weakness of the Government of Canda. The Government must do something to solve this problem and deport this kind of immigrants.

At the end of the day, I don’t think people should be projecting their anger at immigrants and the only reason they should project their anger immigrant is if they’re bringing a nuisance and not follow the lawBut for being in Canada, that’s the government’s fault. The government kind of screwed everybody here, the immigrants, and the citizens of this country.. by bringing so many people into Canada these guys are also struggling. I almost think I wonder if there was some kind of like an underpayment that government officials got from these universities because a lot of of the people that come to the country as students they have to take some kind of a course and pay twice or three times as much as Canadian do.

This video is absolutely right!! It's terrible!! We are being set up and taken over!! STOP IMMIGRANTS and DEPORT those who are sucking off our taxes!! Take note of the Muslim man who rants about how his kind are going to make us all become Muslims or ..... 😡

No doubt about it, Canada is for Canadians. If you wanted to, you could deport millions of immigrants, but let's be real about the cost. The Canadian economy, its pensions, its farms, and its health sector all rely on immigrants to pay taxes and fill jobs. It's not some big conspiracy about population replacement; it's just about the economy. You can't have one without the other. Canadians aren't the only ones dealing with this. In Asia and Africa, it's a different kind of immigrant, the ones with money who buy up land and property, driving locals out of the market. They're not given an ear either, because money talks. It’s always been about the money and the power, and Canadians should understand that perspective too. The culture or religion of a few bad apples shouldn’t be used to tarnish every immigrant. We do need to do a better job screening people, but it’s not fair to paint everyone with the same brush. In the U.S., Indian immigrants are top earners and incredibly successful, but people still complain that they’re "taking their jobs." So, if an Indian person is a failure, they're a problem. If they're a success, they're still a problem. They can't win. This old colonial mindset is alive and well. It's tough for some people to process that a person of color can outsmart them and rise up by their own bootstrap. But when those same folks go to Asia or Africa, suddenly they feel that old nostalgia and are much more comfortable with the social hierarchy there. It would be ideal if no one had to leave their home country for a better life. When we have more justice in the world for everyone, maybe we won't have to keep having these conversations.

I remember the Boat people in the late 70's and 80s and how they were grateful and how they blended with us. This kind of immigration, illegal or not, is different and causing trouble.

The truth is, the very characteristic that made Canada so loved internationally is being used against us. A country should under NO CIRCUMSTANCE CHANGE THEIR WAYS/CULTURE TO MAKE ANY IMMIGRANT/MIGRANT/ASYLUM SEEKER MORE "COMFORTABLE". Sad to say this but Canada is too "kind" and too liberal for it's own good. They essentially would have a rabid animal gnawing at their leg but would not try to stop it because the animal maybe "scared" or "hungry" or don't want to hurt it's feeling or something. If Canadians do no protect it's values and culture by restricting and massively reducing integration and not hesitating to deport criminal immigrants, the very soul and identity of this beautiful country will be gone FOREVER (some would already say that already happened)!! That's why I respect Poland so much, they said NO to mass migration by way of asylum seekers, regardless of the backlash from the EU, but that's why unlike those other countries that did the mass migration, Poland remains one of if not the safest European country and best of all, KEPT THEIR IDENTITY!!!

Coming back to basics, how can any human being call another human being a "racist" when we are all of the same humanity. All of the same body of the HUMAN RACE which bleeds the same color of blood, cry the same salty tasting tears, sweat the same as others etc This when the only apparent true difference is that we all have a slightly to stronger <<nuance/shade/skin tone>> of brown. Why brown? Well, in the beginning, God took some earth from the ground and formed HUMAN KIND. Oh! Isn't Earth kind of having various teints of brown? YEAH! same weat different shades/skin tone.

It’s really disappointing to see some immigrants not making any effort to adapt to this beautiful country, but instead trying to recreate everything exactly as it was back home. I’m an immigrant healthcare professional myself, and I visit many nursing and retirement homes. It feels extremely disrespectful when immigrant workers speak only in their own languages even when others around them don’t understand. Just a few days ago, I was in a park and witnessed someone spitting red tobacco all over a tree trunk. This kind of behaviour is unacceptable in Canada. We came here for better opportunities and a better life, so it should be our responsibility to respect the culture and the public spaces here. I genuinely believe the government needs to be stricter about who they allow in. Canada doesn’t need people who refuse to integrate or who create a nuisance in public. Diversity is about sharing and respecting each other, not about ignoring Canadian values or lowering public standards. If someone is not willing to respect this country and its culture, then maybe Canada is not the place for them.

All this BS please, if you want to know why the racist immigrants are here taking over the country they escaped, for being poor and raped and beheaded, Islam is the worse kind of people they have let in, they aren't looking for peace they are looking for power EVEIL power, please ask the LIBERALS Why they are here, and when getting a job WHAT HAPPENED to CANADIANS FIRST, Canada I doomed, doomed if you are in your 20's 30's you may still experience the hate, they already speak their own language, refusing to speak English, refusing to serve people who are different from them, Canada is letting in selfish ignorant people, everything we Canadians say or ask them to is discrimination, they dress their way they run businesses their way, just like in their country, AND WHY ? because the Canadian government is weak, they can't defend the country or it's people shame on this Liberal government, they totally suck.

Because they are not trying to fit in to our society and they are causing problems for the neighbors. They receive more than born Canadians and are given jobs here over Canadians. In my apartment building they don't like to be told to stop causing noise disturbances, in fact it even gets worse when they have been asked to stop. Some of the tenants " Newcomers " seem to think they can operate a business in the apartment which means they use excessive noise to build whatever they are building. Once they have been asked to stop by other tenants and given notices they then decide to retaliate by causing further noise which is deliberately to disturb the rest of us. They try to intimidate people that they know are born Canadians like some kind of gang members. We no longer feel safe in our own homes and neighborhoods. We are tired of them using the race card for every problem they have which is usually something they caused in the first place. In this particular building on Queen st. N. in Hamilton they cause trouble in multiple different apartments which they attend. Once they have been asked to stop causing noise in one apartment they just go to one of the others and then proceed to do the same thing there. Some of the newcomers have been given more than one apartment in the same building and therefore run back and forth between those apartments and slam the door of each one over and over all day long. The management has been informed hundreds of times for a number of years and yet they have not yet dealt with the issues. There is an ongoing record of so many incidents in this building which the management has not addressed beyond a blanket notice to all tenants regarding noise complaints. The manager says things like " It's a process " and yet there seems to be no results. Is management afraid to just simply evict the trouble makers ??

Canada isn't run by a murderous insane dictator. Trump doesn't like such countries and such leaders. This is the kind of leader a sane country chooses. Trump is the leader an insane country chooses.

This is the kind of leader we need in America.

I´m from Germany and I think Trudeau shows how to be a real leader, not a showmaster. What makes me thougtful is to see the Republicans cheering to Donalds inhumane statements. We Germans historicaly know, that this kind of right wing politics can lead to a real desaster. I don´t understand, why only such a little number of americans are standing up and demonstrate for their rights und safe their democracy. This could all end very bad.

What a disgusting, moronic clown this utter idiot is. Total scum. Ruined a great country, and just won’t go away. Loathed through the country and beyond. Only the kind of idiot that watches CNN would support this kind of vermin.

Look at the clown speaking like a muppet from a script thinking he's some kind of intellectual. This is literally the guy behind him : ??\nLMAO ...???

Trump and Putin are cut from the same cloth - bullies that think by strong arming people, counties they will submit - not anymore the world sees you and is not taking this ? anymore - on a global level we need to show the bullies of the world that we will stand together in eradicating this kind of behaviour for good and let this be a future warning to any leaders who act in the same way Putin and Trump are acting now. Well done Canada ??

Kind of impressed, this is the most clear Trudeau has spoken throughout his entire time as PM. Just when we needed it. Well done!

This is the kind of leader we need in the US!!!!! Not the dumpster fire we have in office!!!

This channel is notoriously known to praise the USA in every single sense. It’s kind of ridiculous actually. Talking about debt above GDP as an issue? Hello.. ?? I’ll wait for an upstate on the free falling economy of the USA which is currently taking place; I doubt it’s gonna happen though

..that egomaniac pig barely got in and imediately do this to its closest partner...is it really necessary?\nif he does it in the beginning..\nthats the kind of character who partner with another dictator...and he will do it to the whole world..each country...along that he's deporting millions of people...\nthats what the public..humanity didnt want to see...what kind of deity protects billionaires and handsome people...to later destroy the rest of the planet?

As a Canadian I am very proud of the way our Prime Minister handled himself. Reading all the kind words from Americans and citizens around the world it gives me hope that there is still good in this world. Thank you ??

Who benefits from this? him! he gets to blame Canada when American prices go up and his supporters will not need or want to hear the truth, they'll be willfully ignorant. If he genuinly admires Putin he'd love nothing more than a Belarus of his own to compare notes with at their little bromance dates! Sad thing is im not trying to make any kind of joke, i really believe he would love that\n\nI'm in UK. Stay strong Canada we love you. Swapping OUT any US products i Possibly can (family too). Also going to look for and swap IN any Canadian produts we can \n\ni cant find emoji flag on this keyboard but imagine Many Canadian flags, hearts a Welsh flag a Union Jack and even more Canadian

As a Mexican man, I must say this is the kind of speech I like to hear from a leader. Such a great selection of words, diplomatic and strong at the same time.\n From this side of the continent, the response of Mrs. president Sheinbaum was a little more cautious, at times lukewarm. She said countermeasures will be taken, but they will be announced next Sunday at the Zócalo, the central plaza here in Mexico City, which she asked people to crowd. \n We're definitely living hard times. The only thing I hope is this political hatred does not reflect on the common people when treating their foreign fellows. We are allies, not enemies.

Wow, Trump is seething with jealousy right now. This guy is everything Trump is not, young, strong and articulate. Not a weak minded simp and boot licking Russian sympathizer. I, as an American that served, can only wish our leader with this kind of integrity and character. Sadly, what we have is the worst moron his followers, like the brainwashed dolts they are, voted him to the highest office in the land, responsible for the wellbeing of this country.\nWe are doomed as a country if we don't do something to stop the orange idiot!

US citizen here! We don't want this either. Our elected official is a deranged maniac and most of our citizens are pissed off. We love our Canadian neighbors and don't want this ridiculous tariff war. As for US supporting Russia well that is not something anyone in their right minds would do. Only stupid, crazy MAGA fools. Please know, most of us are kind and want the best for all humans. I can only apologize for myself. DJT is on his own. NOT MY PRESIDENT!

WHERE ARE THE USA DEMOCRATS ?? WGAT KIND OF DEMOCRACY IS THIS ?? Been rule by a dictator, authoritarian SEUDO politician?? Where where …….. ???

I'll tell you what this is about. I'll tell you why the orange Jesus is attacking friends instead of enemies. I will let you know why Trump has become the largest Putin bootlicker. It is because I believe Putin who is one of the most dangerous political figures in Europe in the last 200 years, who is a former KGB agent and he was a very good one, has dug up some much much much much much much much dirty dirt on the most despicable disrespectful immoral entitled billionaire moron. Probably the same kind of dirt why the Epstein files were mostly redacted. I believe the orange orang spent some very good times in Russia in the past, good times that should never come out in the light of day, some services that were probably at a discount, while some hidden cameras and microphones were collecting that very dirty dirt and the brand on those cameras and microphones was a KGB logo. This is why I think Mr thinnest tope in the world is acting as the Russians boyfriend.

I really believe that it just comes down to Trump feeling resentment that he will never be part of a perceived 'inner circle' of establishment world leaders. It's probably over that one time when they were caught on a hot mic dissing him with Trudeau kind of leading the pack. Over the years Trump has shown over and over again that he is that petty and all of his decisions have an absolutely childish basis, yet the American people voted him in a second time. I've run out of patience with the American people too. They're not really doing anything about this except saying online that they support Canada just so they can feel a little better about themselves. If you guys want a dumpy predator for president that's your business but I will be doing my part to fight him and his unjust attacks against my country.

This is the kind of speech we should see more often. Not only the speech is well articulated and full of logical flow to understand intent. \nWe should air less of Trump’s speeches. They are a bad influence for kids’ speech learning.

Countries around the world dream of having a neighbour like Canada, and here is the US, having betrayed Canada so bad...who is going to ever see USA as a friend or ally? No money can ever be worth losing this kind of face.

Trump thinks America rules the world whereas the balance can easily shift by this kind of aggressive approach, especially when there is a tremendous economical power called CHINA! I expect the infamous arrogant American culture will have to learn being humble soon. You should thank Trump for what is going to happen next.

This is the kind of president we need not the joke we have right now

We need to ask if there is some kind of explanation for Trump to be doing everything possible to help Russia and damage the US! This is a very grave situation!

GOD BLESS CANADA, LONG LIVE CANADA. I am a student immigrant who had a choice between US and Canada. I chose Canada, and I have never regretted my choice. The people might not know this but Canada is an amazing country. People have no idea how Canadians have built a fantastic country in some of the toughest conditions. Canadians are some of the most polite, helpful and kind people.

Heys guys, I think you in the USA would be better asking this President to annex you until you can get rid of Donald for good...??? I'm from a country across the pond (Portugal) and this is the kind of guy I'd like to make alliances with.\n\nThat freak show trap your #1 and #2 put up for Zelensky last friday was sick. The civilised world really needs to unite and help eachother in every way and the guy you put in charge doesn't seem much into it. United we win!

Much love to you Mr. Trudeau and to the people of Canada who I have always found to be most kind and generous. This American is with you all the way!!

It's just Trump. One dumb man who, for some dumb reason, speaks and represents a lot of people under the name of the country they live in. Maybe someone will figure out that someone can only make so many bad decisions before they remove that person from making more bad decisions. We have the village idiot in charge of things. Most[people in America like you and other leaders more than the person who is pretending to lead here. He's the fool of fools. You don't have to call him a smart guy just to make him feel good, he just does dumb things all the time. Either way, it's a fun show, I only hope the missiles start to fly and we all destroy ourselves. \n \nHenry Limpet: Doesn't it kind of give you a thrill of hope, George? \nGeorge Stickel: Hope for what, Henry? \nHenry Limpet: With the war in Europe and new weapons being invented all the time, why, well what if men were actually foolish enough to destroy themselves completely? Then, you see, the fish in the ocean would develop into a new race of men and - well, this time they might turn out better, you see? \n \nOne can only hope.

why on earth do you interrupt this man in the middle of his speech? what kind of reporting is that?

Is kind of sad American should be lead by the smartest person in this planet

As a Canadian, I'm obviously pissed, like the rest of Canada, and just to be clear, we don't forget!!!!\nA country that has fought wars side by side, and to see what the American government is doing is absolutely disgusting!\nTo all our American friends that didn't vote for this, thank you for the kind words.\nElbows up Canada, we stick together!

As for Ukrainian, this is some kind of bad dream. Why is everything that the enemies of the West and especially the US, that is, authoritarian Russia and China, now doing Trump? Russia has not known for more than half a century what else to do to weaken the West and destroy it, and here Trump is destroying everything from the inside. How could this happen, where have the classic Republicans gone?

Trump is absolutely destroying America as the world knows it, if that tyrant is not reined in, the people will suffer immensely, this is nothing but a manufactured crisis used as a tactic to demonstrate their power, and then solve it and become the savior of the people. Trump is the symbol in which the ultra wealthy elite and the fascists have concentrated their efforts, he’s a puppet of that oligarchy and someone who is subjected to a very obscure tie to Putin. What kind of information does Putin hold to exert that amount of influence over Trump? It must be something bigger than Trump’s mere admiration of his autocratic power…

Someone asked: Why do so-called Christians think Donald Trump is some kind of savior that was appointed by GOD to save us all? Another person answered: Because of the total opposites in your statement. I am a conservative AND a believer. \nAnd that makes it so difficult for me to take Republicans serious. How in the world is it that those who profess to believe in GOD, claim to be Christians - and worship Trump? \nA self-confessed abuser of women (When you are rich, they let you do anything you want to)? \nA rapist. \nA thief (Think: Trump “University”) \nA man without respect for anyone (Think: “nick names.”) \nA liar (Think: My crowd was bigger than any ones) + 34,000 PROVEN lies more \nA hypocrite (The Two Corinthians) \nA cheater (Think: Two pregnant wives, both of whom he cheated) \nAn inciter of violence (Think: Fight like hell) \nIn no way does the man fit any concept of Christian character and yet, those who profess to be Christians think he is GOD-given??? GOD does at times allow evil leaders to be appointed over Nations as part of HIS ETERNAL PLAN in this World before the Creation of this World as in the case Egypt's Evil Pharaoh and Evil King Saul because Israel wanted a King instead of GOD'S Prophets such as Samuel directing them at the time of Israel's request.

I can't believe the people of the USA really elected him. Come on, you know Trump plays very dirty--I refuse to believe that the majority of voters are this brain dead. If our nation is this stupid then we deserve everything that is coming to us. PS: Trudeau, it's way too nice to tell Trump he's a smart guy--he's evil, not at all intelligent. Can we please stop conflating scheming, bullying and manipulation with intelligence---any dumb ass can scheme, bully and manipulate (the prisons are full with this kind of human being), but you actually have to be intelligent to collaborate, listen and manage.

This is the kind of leader America needs

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

Why isn't Canada doing anything to stop illicit drugs in their Country. That's what this is about. Trump is America First and I won't apologize for that. \nTrudeau is talking like he has some kind of power over the U.S. Not very smart Canada will go broke if they don't comply with Trump's reques to shut down drug trafficking in Canada that comes across our border. \nFentanyl is still detected in an overwhelming majority of illicit drug deaths in Canada, according to PHAC, but the unpredictability and potency of other substances mixed in with the fentanyl are making the supply more dangerous. \nMexican cartels are operating fentanyl and nitazene synthesis labs in Canada. \nA recent study recognized Canada’s heightened domestic production of fentanyl, and its growing footprint within international narcotics distribution. \nCanada-based drug trafficking organizations maintain robust “super labs,” mostly in rural and dense areas in western Canada, some of which can produce 44 to 66 pounds of fentanyl weekly.

DEAR PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU, I AGREE THAT THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT HAS NOT BEEN FAIR TO ITS ALLIEDS AND TRADING PARTNERS AND THAT WE HAVE TO ACT IMMEDIATELY AGAINST THE UNITED STATES. \n\nI HAVE TO SAY, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY CANADA OR EUROPE EVER TRUST THE UNITED STATES WITHOUT HAVING SOME CONTINGENCY PLAN, KNOWING THE KIND OF TRAITOROUS MENTALITY AMERICAN GOVERNMENTS HAVE ALWAYS HAD, THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR POCKETS AND MAKING MONEY AT THE EXPENSE OF THE WEAK AND THE GULLIBLE COMMERCIAL AND POLITICAL PARTNER. \n\nONE THING I DISAGREE....., THAT IS CALLING THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT MURDEROUS, WHEN IN FACT IT WAS NATO AND ITS BRIGHT IDEA OF ANNEXATION OF UKRAINE TO NATO KNOWING THAT THEY WOULD BE BREAKING AGREEMENTS ESTABLISHED DURING THE COLD WAR OF NO PROLIFERATION OF NATO, IN FACT, NATO STARTED BREAKING THAT PACT WHEN IT ANNEXED FINLAND AND ESTONIA. RUSSIA KEPT QUIET, BUT NOW NATO TRIES TO ANNEX UKRAINE, THAT WAS THE LAST STRAW FOR RUSSIA, BESIDES THE BLATAN MISTREATMENT OF RUSSIAN-UKRAINIANS BY THE UKRAINIAN GOVERNMENT. \n\nNATO USES DEMOCRACY AS A PUNCH LINE, WHEN WE ALL KNOW THIS IS A DIRTY WAR FUELLED BY ECONOMIC INTERESTS AND GREED!\n\nMR. PRIME MINISTER, DO YOU KNOW WHO THE MURDERER IS?.....IT'S MR. ZELENSKY WHO HAS ANNIHILATED THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF ITS OWN PEOPLE, UKRAINIANS WHO WERE USED AS CANNON FODDER....AND NATO THE INSTIGATORS OF THIS WAR.\n\nTHE WORLD CANNOT BE THAT BLIND TO NOT SEE IT!!!
