As a Canadian I am embarrassed, ashamed and fearful! Everything that this idiot spews forth is just pure drama. All President Trump wanted was for Canada to take care of the drug problem that has killed so many. In the 9 years that this government has been in power he has done absolutely NOTHING to stop this catastrophe, in fact he has stood by and watched it get worse….enabling cartels to gain more power with a lax system of slap on the wrist laws. And his immigration department is asleep at the wheel.  \nI pray that some common sense enters the picture soon…

Trudeau is good at brainwashing. It has nothing to do with the people. It has to do with this dictator regime who taxes everyone and everything in Canada. Basically. And don't want to stop. They leave their borders open and immigration here in Canada is out of control. They give refuge to criminals in Canada and no rule of law. This guy is a dictator and food at brainwashing in the media.

Thank you Mr. Prime Minister! Americans don’t want this either, so secure your side of the border, stop all the fentanyl and illegal immigration coming in and the rest will automatically sort itself out ;)

Secondly Trudeau, why hadn't you done this before? Why hadn't you invested in all this imaging, drones etc to stop fentanyl immigration and the harmful things that you knowingly allowed to enter America? Secondly, why are the tariffs so disapproportionately unfair for the American goods if they can even get there at all. But yours are being sold for pretty much not much of an increase

Wow, articulate strong talk, no lies, no propaganda, no bluster, none of the total and complete unrelenting bullshit we have endure on a daily basis from the sociopathic delusional asshole that currently occupies the White House. It should be no surprise that our leadership chooses to blame all of our problems on someone else, because that's exactly what they do every day. We have a drug problem, it's because of Canada and Mexico. We have an immigration problem, likewise Mexico and Canada. We have a deficit problem, that's because of the EU and NATO. Our problem is our government, specifically Republicans who won't accept the simple truth: you want to solve problems you have be disciplined and smart. You have to spend money to fix your problems instead of blaming some else and trying to get them to pay for it. You pay to solve your problems instead of giving huge tax cuts to people who don't need them. You stop lying to your people. You want to change the trade imbalance? Build products that other countries want at a price that makes sense. The EU has no laws that prevent American car manufacturers from selling their cars in Europe. American car companies make shitty cars. They make cars that are too big, that don't make sense for European where streets can be very small and gas is very expensive. The US manufacturers don't make a single small car in thos country that can compete with European cars. US agricultural products are laced with poisonous chemicals that are outlawed in the EU because they kill people. Our governmeent doesn't give a shit about that because to grow healthy food means you have to cut profits, almighty dollars, instead of grow things that the rest of the world will accept. We have an idiot for president who thinks he knows more than anyone else and an idiot party that won't tell him the truth. This is going to cost us big time. We are going into recession, probably a long one because we don't have real leaders and the president on his best day is nothing more than a reality TV personality, and not a very entertaining one at that.

Trump said there will be no tariffs if you help stop illegal immigration!! And we don’t want this

Geez CNN, you did not let your American audience hear some of the most important things said! Americans, if you want to know everything, go to CBC and listen to the whole broadcast! AND GEEZ, American journalists STOP repeating the lies... you know from the facts on your own border website that THIS IS NOT ABOUT FENTANYL OR ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION! It's shocking to me how you all keep repeating Trump's false claims when you know they are FALSE!

Justin, you had to stop illegal immigration right after trump took power 1.0. You have made our fellows Canadians much poorer. Resign now?????????

RESPONSE TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROPAGANDA AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP\n\nTo the American People, Mainstream Media, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk\n\nThe mainstream media is once again spinning lies and manipulating reality to push their globalist agenda.\n\n? THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT TRUMP IS CREATING A WAR WITH CANADA AND MEXICO.\n? THE TRUTH? TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE COLLAPSE THEY HAVE PLANNED.\n\nCNN and other media outlets are pushing a false narrative about President Trump imposing tariffs on Canada and Mexico as an “attack” or “act of economic war.” This is not about war. This is about taking America back from the deep state elites who have been destroying our economy and flooding our country with illegal immigration.\n\n1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.\n\n2. TRUDEAU IS JUST A PUPPET FOR THE GLOBAL ELITES\n\nCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not defending Canada—he is defending the deep state agenda.\n\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau more upset about Trump’s tariffs than he is about China’s infiltration of Canada?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau defending globalist trade deals instead of fighting to keep Canada’s economy strong?\n? Ask yourself: Why is Trudeau suddenly trying to turn Americans against Trump right as NATO and the EU are pushing for war?\n\nBECAUSE THIS IS A COORDINATED ATTACK.\n\n? Trudeau is panicking because Trump is taking away their power.\n? Trudeau is working with the globalists to weaken America.\n? Trudeau knows his country depends on the U.S., and if America stops playing their game, Canada collapses too.\n\nThis is why he is attacking Trump, calling him “dumb” on CNN, and trying to manipulate the American people into turning against their own president.\n\n3. TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE IMMIGRATION INVASION\n\n? FACT: Canada and Mexico have been working alongside the deep state to flood America with illegal immigrants.\n? FACT: The goal was to change U.S. demographics, destroy the economy, and create a permanent voting base for globalist-controlled politicians.\n? FACT: This was NEVER about helping migrants—this was about replacing the American people with a population that could be controlled.\n\n? Why do you think Biden opened the borders?\n? Why do you think millions of illegal immigrants are being shipped across the U.S. at taxpayer expense?\n? Why do you think every major city is being overrun with migrants while American citizens are struggling?\n\nThis is planned destruction—and Trump is stopping it.\n\n? Trump and JD Vance will shut down illegal immigration completely.\n? Trump will reimplement strict border security, build more of the wall, and stop the deep state from using mass migration as a weapon.\n? The globalists are afraid because if Trump stops their immigration plan, they lose their ability to control future elections and destroy American sovereignty.\n\n4. THE MEDIA IS LYING TO YOU—AGAIN\n\n? The same mainstream media that lied about Russian collusion is now pushing the lie that Trump is starting a war with Canada and Mexico.\n? The same mainstream media that censored the truth about Biden’s corruption is now protecting Trudeau and the deep state’s plan.\n? The same mainstream media that attacked Trump for four years straight is now attacking him again because they know he is winning.\n\nTHIS IS A DISTRACTION.\n\nThey want you to focus on fake outrage about tariffs while ignoring the real crisis:\n\n? AMERICA IS BEING INVADED FROM WITHIN.\n? THE DEEP STATE WANTS TO COLLAPSE THE U.S. THROUGH MASS MIGRATION.\n? THE GLOBALISTS NEED TRUMP GONE BECAUSE HE IS STOPPING THEIR PLAN.\n\n5. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE AWAKE—WE WILL NOT FALL FOR THIS\n\nTo CNN and the mainstream media: We know you are lying. You have lost control of the narrative, and the American people see through your propaganda.\n\nTo Justin Trudeau: You are a puppet, and your attempts to manipulate Americans will fail.\n\nTo President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance: The American people stand with you. We know you are fighting for our country, and we will not be fooled by the lies of the globalist elite.\n\nTo Elon Musk: Keep exposing the truth. The deep state is afraid because they can no longer censor real information.\n\nTo every American reading this: Share this message before they try to silence it.\n\nTHIS IS NOT ABOUT TRADE. THIS IS ABOUT THE FUTURE OF AMERICA.\nTHE DEEP STATE IS PANICKING—AND THAT MEANS WE ARE WINNING.\n\n? AMERICA FIRST. 1776 WILL NOT BE ERASED. ?\n\nThis response is clear, powerful, and directly dismantles the mainstream media’s lies. I encourage you to copy and paste this as one unified message for YouTube, social media, or emails.

Still refuse to stop illegal immigration and narcotics though . Funny . Good luck you bunch of pansies

This is why we need to place Tariffs on Canada: unaffordable gas, groceries and housing for Americans will stop crime and immigration for sure ?

The US has just had 4 years of wide open borders encouraged by the Biden administration. Now you want to blame all your immigration problems on Canada and Mexico and you demand these countries to fix your immigration problem immediately or be penalized. It's like blaming drug addicted Americans on Mexico and Canada. The blame belongs to your own country. Stop playing the victim card and accept your own responsibility!

Why spend all that tax money on northern boarder enforcement - how about Canada - reform your immigration policy and stop em at the airport. Cost a lot less to stop them at the airports if they don't have a good reason then tracking em down with Blackhawks and depleting our resources. Hope you get a better leader soon! Trudeau just talks out both sides of a#%, but unlike sleepy Joe, at least he can talk??

End and stop all legal immigration to the USA for 100 years

Our country is at war now. The battle is painted a immigration. It is invasion. Time to call it what it is and do what it takes to stop it. WE ARE AT WAR!

Any city that allows illegals must be prosecuted. First, arrest the mayors, then the counsel, then the governors if they don't take steps to stop and do stop the cities and groups from allowing illegal immigration.

STOP ALL IMMIGRATION.

The US population getting old, 50% fewer marriages, and couples have fewer or no kids. What are they going to do to replace the aging workforce? Trump has no mechanisms. Canada uses immigration to keep the economy going. The USA will pay for it. It is starting, who will tend the fields, small startups are mainly started by immigrants. Innovation will stop.

Canada and the US share the longest border in the world. It's not just illegal immigration coming from Canada but the US as well. Both countries need to co operate to stop this. Also, illegal immigrants can not claim refugee status if they are escaping from a developed country. The Americans should educate themselves on Roxham road and how this a major entry point between both countries

So we elected a con man, habitual liar, convicted felon and insurrectionist to stop illegal immigration. Were those immigrants coming here and doing jobs that Americans won't do or were they all coming to committ crimes ?

The USA brings in one MILLION LEGAL immigrants a year for the past 30 years!!! We have far too many immigrants here to begin with. We absolutely can not take in anymore or we will risk losing our entire culture. There wont be a USA if 20 million migrants aren’t deported and we need to stop ALL immigration for at least 10 years.

Im certain that the Democrats dont want to stop illegal immigration, because those illegal immigrants will vote Democrat when they become citizens.

I am Canadian and I completely understand why Trump is threatening Canada with 25% tarrifs. Canada needs to do its part too! This illegal immigration has to stop!

You know. You really have to wonder just why they're so desperate to stop these anti-immigration policies. Kinda makes you wonder if there's some under the table deals going on.

Stop ALL EMPLOYMENT and it will stop.They come here for work.Who is giving them jobs?Very disgusting.Close the wallet and watch what happens.Anybody who makes a dollar and profits from illegal immigration needs to be put in prison.This is BIG BUSINESS at it's worse,no better than the drug cartels.?

Sure they are, and yes and yes. NY officials need to be recalled or fired. A state and workers of the state should be allowed to be sued for not enforcing the immigration law . Then this crap will stop over night.

Sane New Yorkers must, I say must, unite, rise up and take the strongest stand against their politicians and dim-whit voters! If they're in agreement with this insanity & rebellion then cut this state off from all federal funding and let New Yorkers pay for these illegals all by themselves. I don't want my tax dollars paying for any illegals. Especially when there are so many Americans living on the streets and/or not even getting by with this failed & fraudulent economy the Democrat Party has given us. Democrat voters aren't being kind and compassionate by wanting them here. They are enabling these people and by doing so, preventing them from growing up and raising their consciousness into a higher state of mind. By wanting to protect criminals, pedophiles, rapists, murderers, thieves, violence and rebellion from being deported, they're displaying for America they're psychology/consciousness of a death wish. This is a psychology of death and failure!!! The Democrat politicians and voters didn't vote for President Trump's agenda but the vast majority of We the People most certainly did. Chuck Shumer, Maxine Waters, all Democrat politicians and Democrat voters, YES, WE DID AND WE WON THE BATTLE!!! \n\nThese illegals are not weak and needing help. They're now uniting, protesting and waving their country's flag against their deportation, which they absolutely have no rights in America to do so. They have no rights here!!! That takes gall, audacity showing their rebellion against American voters and an unreality in their third world psychology to believe they do. We have been forced to deal with this abusive, violent third world psychology for far too long. They have a strong willpower so return to their country, unite there, raise their flags there and rebel against their corrupt government! They don't belong here as they don't have America's vibration. They just continue demanding and taking America by violent force. They are using and abusing tax payers' money and their goal of turning America into their violent third world hellishness must stop now! When they want to become part of America, get in line and make application in our legal immigration program. These illegals do not rate higher than those who are coming here legally!!!

They are all here for the grift. As long as we keep giving them stuff they will continue coming. Once we stop giving them stuff then this immigration thing will become much smaller

New Yorker’s we need to take back our state. Stop\nvoting Leftist Democrats in our state. It will never change if we don’t. \nHochul needs to be fired, along with James and Bragg, Dem legislatures and city council members who are leftist need to go as well. We need good governance from Republicans that will clean up crime and our cities from corruption and follow Federal laws about immigration. Bring back wealth.

Immigrants fly to Montreal posing as tourists. The airport border patrol officer welcomes them with a smile, wishes them a nice vacation and stamps their passport. The immigrants make their way to the border somewhere between Maine and New York. They sneak across the border at night. The problem is that Canada lets everyone in as long as they have something that resembles a passport. Canada needs to stop the open border “immigration to all” system at the international airports and shipping ports.

Then how did they get across the bus terminals that have immigration police just stop anybody without legal papers? \nThis report is not accurate

Canada gets 40,000 to 80,000 year coming North\nWe tried last 10 years to stop it\n\n&\nMigrants fly to NYC take bus to local town closest to border, & than take can literally right to place where they cross into Canada\n\nNow because Pierre Poilievre is going to win our next election for our Conservative Party\nWho says in his election promises to close the border\n\nAs when one crosses into Canada illegally\n\nThey bypass our immigration & go thru our Court system\n\nUnder present Liberal govt\nAs they wait for court case\n\nSocial Services hooks them up with place to live\nMonthly welfare\n& even employment \n\nSo illegal migrants r going back South as they know when Conservatives win\nDeportations will be enforced like what is happening in U.S right now\n\nSanctuary cities is attracting them back into U.S. \n\nMany Independent Media covered going back to 2015\n\nRebel News\nDid several stories as well as others\n\nSo I guess I can only say\n\nHIW DOES IT FEEL !!\n\nCanada tried & tried to get American border guards to stop on ur end \n\nThis is result of in action by Biden/Trump & Justin Trudeau’s Lii is break govt

I very much appreciate your reporting of the seeming cognitive dissonance of the pro immigration stance of activists which is the general narrative nationally, in mainstream media, and even the Trump Administration BUT the elixir to break the spell of the cognitive dissonance is to call this whole situation EXACTLY what it is: the anti-Constitutional Republic of America / pro-socialist march towards communism. People in this country need to wake the hell up and understand what is at stake here and stop buying into a deliberately distracting narrative that masks the relentless efforts to destroy our Constitutional rights and way of life!!!

This crap is not going to stop until all 3 countries change their immigration laws and cities their sancturary laws. The laws we have are decades old and need to be changed with the changing times.

The border is closed! Stop demanding entrance! You don’t have rights here. Apply first immigration!

Stop this mass immigration already. It doesn’t even feel like Canada anymore and has ruined our housing and social services. I work in public service in healthcare. Literally 1/2 of my patients don’t even speak English.

This is a lie! All legal immigration and visas suspended for a period of time because of massive deportations! Stop lying!

Its sad when Trump had to apply tariffs to get Canada to stop the immigration problem.

The immigration officers have to be hurt by knowing that they have to stop people who are not much different than their parents and grandparents.

Stop ILEGAL immigration!\nRegresen a sus fantásticos países ??

Globalist Oligarchy governments from around the ? are going to always send waves of so called , civilians at the US. We the People are infiltrated and surrounded by envious enemies who will kill us for their own agenda . ?‍???‍???‍???‍???‍???‍???‍???‍???‍???\nBOYCOTT MEXICO ?? STOP ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION/INVASION !

Outlaw all immigration stop the extermination program for native Americans make America Apache again

I am from Venezuela, we came in 1980, it took my parents 3 years to receive our green cards, my father used an attorney, we stood in line at the immigration office over and over multiple appointments, in regards to the lady saying she is from Venezuela my heart is with her because how bad Venezuela has become, but please everyone remember that we meaning US has been allowing them to come in this way, we been allowing it, it is completely wrong to do that, will you invite someone to your house unconditionally? No!!! Its by special invitation only!! Close the border and send everyone back where they came from, and this will stop!!!!!! Enough is enough!!!\nGod help all of our agents and military personnel who are working so hard to protect our nation!!! Bravo ?

They were treated like the CRIMINALS they were. Stop violating US immigration laws. Got it, get it, good!!

If US do not want immigration legal or illegal from other countries, United States of Terrorism should stop interfering in other counties and mind their own MOFO business. Let all countries progress on their own and stop creating conflicts so they can sell their weapons to feed the next generation of untied states of Terrorism.

Stop the illegal immigration of American-made guns to the criminals in South America. That would do a lot to stop the desire for them to leave their home country.

The US wants to stop illegal immigration and the importation of drugs from Mexico.\nMexico does not care at all. (For decades)\nNow, a *US President with balls* , acting for his country, is doing something! \nThe same goes for China, which is the main chemical drug producer (Fentanyl) exporting to the USA.\nWhy blame a President who acts for his country?

All President Trump has to do to help crush losing our money to other countries is to Tax Western Union or any other App that send money on a inconstant basis out of the country for non-citizens...This would help stop illegal immigration...

one of the stated reasons for Trumps tariffs is to get Canada and Mexico to stop illegal immigration and to stop drug trafficking into the US
