This is a great speech by Trudeau! He has the perfect tone and sounds like the leader a nation would want at this time in history. Must be nice. This is what MAGA wanted. Let them enjoy it and all its repercussions! Will always love you Canada! Hopefully you forgive the half of our populations who despise this moronic, obese turd. The other half do not deserve your forgiveness!

Trump is an asset of Vladimir Putin. When you look at who ultimately benefits from all the craziness because of Trump, it’s Putin. He is the benefactor of everything Trump is doing. We knew this a long time ago, he didn’t even want to peacefully transfer power, caused a riotous assault on the US capital, he has now given Putin everything when it comes to Ukraine, made a pathetic adolescent attempt to demonize Zelensky, and yet he still sits as the leader of the most power country in the world. He should be rotting in jail for the rest of his life. He has betrayed everything free democracies stand for.

Proud Canadian here. So, we all know, including the Americans, that trump is a moron. In my books, he is the economic equivalent of Hitler, and no different from Putin. But my question is, how do you Americans who voted for this bully, feel now? I get it, a lot of American are against what he is doing. But the majority of you voted him in.

I hope that Canadians know we didn’t all vote for this president. He is an embarrassment to the rest of us. He did say he likes stupid voters because they believe whatever I tell them.

Trump is not working with Putin. He has tried to get both Russia and the Ukraine to set down and talk and end the war. Trump has been doing this because the US has been taken advantage of all countries. So get your facts straight.

Hahaha… oh no!… not Canada!… hilarious… trump is fixing all of the problems with the system, and making it fair to the rest of the world… instead of the USA taking it in the A*s… when we’re the ones paying for it… we the people voted for this!… in a couple of years, the whole world will see that the USA economy is the best ever, and will follow in trumps footstep to become prosperous

Not personel just buisness. No we are not. We are trying to get the tyrant (putin to the table) EU is weak and we are the only ones who can solve this war. Yet NONE of you even tried while Biden was in office. This will enable us to produce these goods at home and you as well. No need to import export everything. You will come out well too. Its the game you all are playing.

Why aren't US Americans protesting? Speaking up? Hitting the streets to fight this? You are all so meek. Weren't you the ones that said that you needed guns in the government is full of traitors? Now is the time. Now it's full of traitors.

Trump is a problem to the developed countries but a bitter blessing to the third world countries. Look at African countries they have everything that nature can provide they are capable of standing on their two F... Foot but the US has been like a mother who doesn't want to let her kids walk by there own feet. The US has been dishing the African countries with chocolate that doesn't benefit them with anything this is the biggest course of poverty in Africa. They need to get away from the USA and the rest of the developed countries so that they can create a better African for their people. Trump please cut them all out cut the relationship so that this countries may elect a proper president without the developed countries planting their puppets. Please let them go for once

Donald Trump did said it during his campaign that he doesn’t care about American People, that all he cares about is their Vote. That’s it. But all this Bozos refused to Listen!!! And he’s now doing exactly what he means. Don’t worry bozos, Yo all ain’t seen nothing Yet!!! Da worst of da worst is still on the way?

True Americans stand with all people who are fair, honest and DEMOCRATIC in their thinking...that includes the people of Canada and Mexico. I'm not altogether certain about the Chinese but we'll see if or how this impacts them and the reaction from there. That BUM knows precisely who those tariffs will benefit and it's not the people who work so hard in order to live their lives. I'm not crazy about Free Trade either but it is what it is.... This is retaliation...pure and simple. Anyone who crosses him will live to regret it...he'll make certain of it. He must be stopped and stopped NOW!

This is regressive tax to Americans, all of us. The one that will be affected most are the bottom 95%. I hope we will be OK in April...

This is all non sense none of the nation's leaders make sense. The tariffs will be paid by the consumers in all the countries. So basically yall raised the prices of all goods in the US, Canada, Mexico & China and the residents will pay or go without products they need & rely on. ?

THIS IS THE DICTATOR TRUMP THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEMS, NOT ALL OF THE GOVT. WANTS THESE TARRIFFS

Trump wants to do anything he can to weaken the USA as much as he can for the love he has for Putin, so he will lie about everything in order to do this. He lies about canada to justify what he is doing that we all know is hurting we american people . He doesnt care. Nothing canada or mexico does will make a differnce because of the overwll goal he has.

I am happy that this will increase the costs on the american people. I hope all provinces remove all USA produced alcohol from their shelves. I hope we apply levies on all energy and mineral exports to the USA. This would include potash, oil, power, nickel, uranium, lumber, etc. I have no ill will to the american people, but your president (whether you elected him or not, he is YOUR president) has started this and you, the american people, are going to end up paying more for everything in the very near future. Your president has now started the FA, and the US public is about to FO. This is NOT hurt any of your billionaires or politicians that brought this upon you. You cannot be upset at anyone than your elected officials.

I’m American, fuck Trump and Elon Musk. I support my brothers and sisters in Canada and across the world! This is bs and this sucks for all of us. We started a war with our friends…Everyone knows real winners win together.

I am SO sorry Canada, but proud of you for standing up to these tyrants. I am a UK citizen residing in the USA, and, was impacted by the USAID terminations, which saddens me to witness such a powerful apparatus for global stability in health and security to be destroyed. Decades of alliance through NATO, this is just sickening to witness in this day and age. Who would have thought! Shame on this spineless administration, that will go down in history as the worst ever. Traitors they are ALL of them.

Can I say I am not a huge fan of Trudeau, but I take my hat off and say bravo for this speech. Calling Putin a 'lying, murderous dictator' is absolutely correct. In recent days all Trump's YES people when asked direct simply questions like 'Was Russia and Putin responsible for the invasion of Ukraine', simply can't bring themselves to answer anymore. We talk about Trump Derangement Syndrome, well all these Trump ring kissers are suddenly suffering from Putin Infatuation Disorder, one of the key symptoms being an inability to criticise or apportion wrong doing or blame on Putin. Bravo again Trudeau for being blunt, honest and direct, this orange ape needs to go.

Please, please, please cut the power! Republicans don't care about anyone but themselves. Unless they personally are affected, they will NEVER change! We need Trump OUT OF OFFICE, that is the ONLY way to know we all won't be playing this miserable game week after week for 4 years!!!

What I don't understand the taxpayers are the ones that are flipping the government's tap. The billionaires are the ones that are causing the deficit to be so high. Why are they claiming the taxpayers to pay it out Donald Trump and his flunkies are the cause of August problem. The republicans just want more money and just because Joe Biden didn't lift up the. Spending costs Donald Trump got mad and now he's taking it out on the United States. People that pay his seat in the office right now.\n We're all working citizens in the United States. I've been flipped a bill that the government has done just to pocket their there. Money and no pay taxes. This is the billionaires that I'm talking about. Because the average workers middle class are the ones that are paying for all this government. And then you guys wanna raise everything because the year guys is doing taxpayers. Continue to keep paying and all you guys wanna do is keep taking their money. Another word's not to let them save money to buy homes. Dubai.

You mention that Americans are 30% more expensive than Canadians but you dont mention that the US is far more unequal with a Gini coefficient of 0.41 vs 0.35 in Canada. Now there is also a known issue with using GDP data to calculate productivity and that is that in sme countries the labor of GDP is much lower than in others. You then end up with Irish productivity being the second highest in the world only because most large US corporations operating in the EU register there to pay lower taxes but most of that revenue is just on paper for Ireland. or with Guyana whose oil and mining revenue makes it productivity equal to that of the US. Maybe that is the case, but is it? and if so why is the average wage in Guyana so much lower? so choosing only one specific stat can make any point of view seem true. you have to look at the bigger picture.\nnow the issue is Canada has been getting more unequal but it is still much better than the US. so what it means is that the higher worker productivity in the US benefits corporations and billionaires far more than it benefits the average American. now if we compare cost of living say between NYC and Toronto:\nCost of Living in Toronto is 37.5% lower than in New York, NY (without rent) \nCost of Living Including Rent in Toronto is 47.1% lower than in New York, NY \nRent Prices in Toronto are 59.2% lower than in New York, NY \nRestaurant Prices in Toronto are 34.5% lower than in New York, NY \nGroceries Prices in Toronto are 33.0% lower than in New York, NY \nLocal Purchasing Power in Toronto is 7.2% higher than in New York, NY \nand this is similar when comparing almost all large Canadian cities with a comparable US one. And whilst housing and NIMBYIsm is real issue you have very similar issues in the US which also has almost no mix zoning. But throw in safety nets and go ask Canadians if they want to change for the US system. I doubt most will. Sure some want things to change but some assuming everyone wants an ultra capitalistic society. most are ok with less growth ut better balanced growth (the exact opposite of the boom and bust US model)

Brain drain is definitely a big issue. I heard from someone that if you're a US citizen you are required to pay US taxes even if you don't live there and honestly I kind of wish Canada would do the same. If this country raised you and educated you and gave you all the opportunities you've had in your life thus far, you shouldn't get to just up and leave without paying anything back.

Economics, unlike other studies like mathematics or medicine, is haunted by more fallacies than all the other studies, combined. The inherent difficulties of the subject would be great enough in any case, but they are multiplied a thousand-fold by special pleading of selfish interests, and it looks like the special interest in this case is click bate for a greater revenue from YouTube.

I’m writing a novel series where there’s a different president in office in 2009-2013, and during this time the crisis in Canada leads to them joining with the UK and other Anglo nations to create a new British empire under the rule of King Charles, and the American president is then forced into a conflict with this new geopolitical foe, and it’s all for personal reasons.

Thing to note\n1) The great world reset was fabricated to hyper inflate life. This is not a canada only phenomenon\n\n2) in canada and the us hedge funds and corporate investors are buying houses on mass. Hyperinflating their prices. And the government of both countries allows even foriegn investors to do it (even if they pretend to put guardrails to slow or thwart this its so easy to circumvent for people with infinite resources)\n\n3) why does the govt allow this because it makes the multiple properties they own on mass also go up. So it's a case of the rich helping each other be richer\n\nYou are all just saying misinformation that was spoon fed to you to distract you from the truth

Trump is a Backstabber and believe me he don’t like her. He just wanted her about and she fell for it and he said it in rallies and she still fell for it and that goes for the rest of you all Trump supporters. He don’t care to destroy this country, your country and my country as well

This is what the democratic administration funds with American taxpayers' money it's a fact no speculation. And there still acting like it's no big deal ant they will do what they want . And for thoes taking advantage of what is happening in America today to launch there own agenda within the United States . Don't do it this mess will eventually get cleaned up and then all the focus will be on you . Think about it because there are a whole lot of WHITE people that are not living very well either White , Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, all races. Stop crying ....

This video and these comments are so shocking and depressing. 10 years ago, people still widely praised and raved about Canada and it was a leading country in healthcare and standard of living. Now people are saying the complete opposite and saying it's in a terrible state. I know countries have their downfall at some point, but Canada, of all places, having a really horrendous \n economical crisis is so hard to grasp.

the comments talking about how all this is rubish pro trans propaganda but ignoring the fact that she performed or would've performed better than 99% of those who commented. some people just dont want thejr opinion changed and theres nothing we can do about that

Like I said before, this is all word of mouth or because of Internet .....they want what the first ones received,,,,free this and free that. ....Go Trump !\nPersonally I have never seen so much homelessness with Americans in the last five years! We honest Americans are suffering,,, lack of housing for AMERICANS is soooooooo\nunderrated ?

3:16 why do we have to care so much for the opportunities of foreigners? They have infiltrated our government and weaponized our care for them against us. Canadians are dying over it, being forced to forfeit our taxes AND healthcare AND police protection AND housing AND cost of living. they don't care for us at all. They have no care about our opportunities they only make demands. All they contribute to is the natural GDP of their being here. They think coming here to replace us makes them good people, and we should appreciate them for giving us all of this diversity. it's madness and half of my family died over it the past few years. please make them leave. Stop letting them in and get them out of our government.

Most illegal migrants spend thousands of dollars to commit the crime (entering any sovereign country illegally is simply an invasion). If they dare to enter China or any of the Arab countries this way, then who knows, they would be in heaven or hell rather than back home. All the deportees should be arrested on reaching back home for invading a foreign sovereign country and tarnishing the images of hundreds of millions of citizens of their countries who enter the USA or any other developed democratic country to study at the best of the universities, and after completion of the courses, they are not only provided the best of the jobs but also citizenship or other legal status to stay put in the countries. But these people reach their desired destination after going through rigorous educational and other processes and after a thorough background check. But in the matter of illegal immigrants, how are the victimized countries supposed to know their backgrounds? How can one be sure if they are not hardcore criminals, terrorists, spies, or even trained soldiers of enemy countries? In such uncertainty, how can the invaded countries be sure that an incident or incidents of such a large magnitude might not take place that, in comparison, the incident of 9/11 would look like the small incident of bursting firecrackers?But on one election promise, the president is, unfortunately, taking a complete U-turn that those students who do the master's and other higher studies should be retained and provided legal status to stay in the country as their contributions are needed to give the country the perpetual cutting edge in the highly competitive world and keep the country's status as number one. These scholars are feeling cheated that by spending huge amounts of money and contributing to the research and development during the studies, they have not only been taken for a ride but also become the main target of the deportation campaign as their status is available with the government. On the other hand, millions of undocumented workers are comparatively safe, as tracing and deporting them is not an easily achievable task. Besides, millions of foreign citizens are given entry into the country on flimsy grounds, and many of them do not even ever go to elementary school. I think even God would not be able to make out what the fuck this country has become on this issue. Almost the same is the situation with most of the EU countries, the UK, Australia, and Canada.

69% of all bankruptcies in the US are due to the cost of healthcare, and the inability of the average person to pay for the healthcare they require. This in the country where the US government spends more than twice as much per capita as the Canadian government. Also as one of the richest countries in the world, it has the highest infant and childbirth mortality rates and lowest age expectancies…. But this is the best place-to live??? REALLY??

He spoke his mind and more need to speak up on these ungreatful immigrants bringing their hatreds of jews with them to the U.K. \n\nAnd that is what this is all about , hating on jews !

I am sorry to hear this, but I can understand. As far as our quality of life is, its gone down since the 90s, more noticeably since around 2012 to 15 imco.\nI am 63, lived here all my life. Maybe a visit someday?

This Ukrainian puppet has taken his country into Stone Age he got his army dead and all of the national economy went into drain on top Ukraine will be paying back with it’s natural resources for this war whatever is left for Ukraine is poverty and. Hardship it is the fault of one idiot

It is idiotic to keep using arguments with these Democrats about the border. Talking won't help. Their goal is the destruction of this country. Its society they already destroyed, now they are in the physical stage: destroying this country, not only NYC, physically. Keep voting for them - Manhattan as the actual Americans knew it has been gone for years. You did it and it is you who keep doing it. After all you keep electing them.

I'm brown and I'm not use to living in an all brown place. My family is mixed. My former homeland was partially mixed but mostly brown. White black brown yellow just have more kids then. Live in a clean environment and respect the laws of the land . Do not act like maniacs and tell people become My religion or die etc. This is why brown people annoy everyone it's because of the behavior. Some people are just plain racist and mostly just a color thing.

When you fraud the immigration system then this would be the consequences. So many Indians come on false intention of studying and then doing more work hours than studying. Pakistanis and Indians wherever they go they think people of other countries are dumb and they can do all the wrong things and no one will do or say anything, which is not true. I am not talking about all the Indians who do this but majority of them.

You know how you can tell this is all STILL JUST A RUSE ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE? \nThe wording for these sanctuary cities states it's illegal to allow ICE or the Border Patrol to take MIGRANTS out of Jails and Prisons right? You know this is al being enforced by lawyers right? Well then the sanctuary cities have no authority to stop Ice or Border Patrol! \n\nKNOW WHY? BECAUSE THEIR LEGAL DOCUMENTS/LAWS STATE THEY CANNOT REMOVE MIGRANTS! WELL THE ONES ICE AND BORDER PATROL ARE AFTER ARE NOT MIGRANTS!!! THEY ARE LITERALLY ILLEGAL ALIENS! NO WHERE IN THE DESCRIPTION DOES IT SAY THEY ARE REMOVING LEGAL MIGRANTS!

I work for that orange bike company that you see all in this video which is mainly a bike service for people that are unfortunate enough to get an American job with that being said a lot of my customers that ride my bikes are asylum seekers and most of them already have car permits and come from wealthy families with jobs in their own countries I'm going to just leave it like that.. don't listen to the hype that the media always pushes out

As a Canadian I don't blame DT. It's gone way too far. It's not a race thing it's a matter of the effect it has on North America born citizens. Our taxes pay for this over flow and it's given to illegals that get more than the tax payer. I am all about helping but let's take care of the home land first. Further more I find the lack of respect that is so commonly encountered is becoming a major problem for all sides. I can't fathom the entitlement.

To the people supporting the abuser, may god create such a situation in your life where you get humiliated in front of the world...But the fear of helplessness makes you more helpless... All you could do after that is question your existence in this world...God dont bless all with same financial comfort... In the age of living life, he is hustling for his dreams... Shame on you people... People like you should suffer this atleast one time... I pray to God...

Enough with all of you psychopaths,enough with all of you lefties supporting the psychopaths…..Nature made the selection.No leftist law will change it…..It is time for NORMAL people to decide what is best for our children…You’ve had your time ,long overdue……And now we all see what is happening in this fu*cked up society of yours…Time for all you to go back INTO YOUR CLOSETS….Trump supporter here.

This problem is worldwide. Japanese people are furious with the Japanese government open and freely giving asylum and welfare benefits to rich Chinese citizens. We as Japanese people are struggling while they have high end jobs and we get paid in peanuts and constantly getting taxed for everything! A bag of rice costs ¥4000+ outrageous! As I watch the world crumbling I sense this can all change but change starts from within your own country!Take care of your own citizens first! Stop running away stop disrupting and disrespecting other countries citizens and their hard earned money.

They have no respect for the U.S. they come in still flying their flag for a country they flee. They make no effort to learn the language of the country they invade. Yet they still expect to be accommodated. This is particularly ironic given how CNN opposed ICE and the deportation policies. Doing everything they could to make border patrol look like monsters. At this point we need to get our military involved and put a ban on all Mexican immigrants coming in to this country and send all the people who work for CNN and other news stations who opposed deportation with them back to Mexico

As crazy as Trump can be with his mouth at times, this is why he was re-elected. Trump is going burn the house down while fixing things and breaking things. Biden caused one of the greatest national security crisis's this country has ever seen and he should still be held accountable for it. Biden's weird gay agenda is just immoral, just look at his son Hunter's lost and immoral behavior. Gee, thanks dad...Your a great role modal...And thanks for all you did to get President Trump re-elected...Couldn't have done it without ya...

Have you ever been to the NY Canadian border??? You can't get near it without being surrounded by border patrol. There are many thousands of cameras in the woods. This whole video is a lie. Don't fall for it. This guy is trying to scare you so you feel okay about handing all you have to a few billionaires.
