Little Trump is not a president nor is he a businessman. He’s a scared little rat a draft dodger and think America if he was afraid to fight in the war then what makes us think that he would protect us now he’s a scared rat. He’s afraid of his own shadow. The family kids and the grandchildren are the ones that are going to feel the damage he will do to this country in four years. I feel so sorry for our men and women in the military now and our veterans are taking a pounding very sad . He’s only doing it to benefit for his own greed. Very sad human being. He’s miserable he’s depressed. You can see it in his face. He was a piece of shit to the American people before he ever even thought of being a president he owes contractors millions of dollars through his life no wonder he has a bull’s-eye on his back and they say he can’t sleep at night well, I wonder why he fucked the American people and he will keep fucking American people nobody will stop him He will keep fucking us until he’s done. And after all that damage that he will do to this country, in the four years it will be so damaged. It will never heal.

Well, from a European perspective, Trump is making the US if not an enemy (yet, anyway), surely not an ally or a friend, as you used to be.\nLots of European contracts will be lost - European countries will rely more on each other and Canada, Australia and other countries that we know we can still trust.\nAnd European consumers will move from American products and companies, especially anything Musk related, because people are really bothered and upset here, how easily an erratic madman can take a democratic country into an oppressive, destructive country.\nWe have no issues with the American people, apart from that you voluntarily brought this upon yourselves (and us), although it was screamingly obvious already in 2016.\nAnd you did it twice...

From Italy: if people like Trump, Putin, Erdogan, Orban and Meloni have so much space and have reached the position that occupy the problem is not them but who voted for them. If people think that these characters with their wicked decisions bring prosperity and peace, the biggest work must be done on the people who choose them, not on those who have been chosen. Canadians, hold on tight, stay with your back straight, continue to be what you always were, do not bend as many rich Americans have done and prone to the delirium of omnipotence of Trump. We Italians know well what it means to have such people in the seats of power and also how important it is that not everyone bends.

This guy does not speak for all Canadians here in Canada. He had every opportunity every opportunity to make things better with Donald Trump. They hate Donald Trump so now they use the media to attack Trump and make him look bad Justin Trudeau you’ve done nothing for Canada for the last 10 years, but put us in debt put us in financial problems put us in Criminal problems. We have rapist here that we brought to Canada terrorist that live in Canada. We are laughing country because of what you’ve done so don’t sit there and make yourself look great and brave and think that Canada’s behind you you better think again you’ve destroyed Canada now you wanna be a big man up there and podium and talk how you’re talking that you think you know Canadians and Canadians are speaking out well that’s a lie if you truly mean what you mean get rid of the carbon tax in Canada let’s start lowering gas prices in groceries. Has nothing to do with them. American people let’s start growing our own stuff in Canada that that been discussing many times and that you’ve just throw it out the window bring back our pipeline. How about that to increase cost and money in Canada again you won’t do that. We’ll have a fight with Donald Trump now I’ll tell you you won’t win. God is in control. Evil has no authority anymore and there’s nothing that these evil leads can do they’re swamp is being drained as we speak.

Fine, canada will be crushed, they can not afford a trade war with the US. Crazy how hard Trudeau wants canada to be America's 51st state, well 52nd state if you know your history.

Like always …just follow the money…which will bring you to the players pulling the Trump puppets strings and they could care less about the average American, Canadian, Mexican or any other citizen. They are already making huge profits from this decision and if it changes in a month they will make huge profits from that as well.

All I see over here is blah blah blah I want to be a socialist blah blah blah. Well ****ing move if you're not happy. FFS you socialist love to talk bs but don't know **** about civics or economics. I've never seen such arrogance for stupidity. ???

Am I dreaming or do we leave on a parallel world\nIt was not long ago I watched the handmaids tale I’m sure I saw jd Vance in there\nWhere is the USA going I am fed up with narcissists ruling our world they popping up everywhere and trump is the worst\nNow I did think that trump may have been the answer to peace not with Elon musk and jd Vance at the helm the real power trump on Friday looked week an old man losing his temper while the son Vance winding him up\nHe should have shut Vance down abit like the godfather with his son\nThe back lash shows that weather we like it or not live in a global world not a war one but an economical one\nSo where do we go well putin is the enemy to his own people I bet if you went round the world and asked young people families do they want to fight no of course not they wake up on morning go to work believe there god have good times where they can they just want fair governments to protect there interests Donald you have got this wrong big time

Thanks Trump! Thanks to your tariffs in Mexico as well, we had to lay off a bunch of coworkers at the beer distributor that I work for! Since we aren’t selling as much imported beer, we had to downsize the company for the first time in over 20 years! Thank you Trump! Now I have to wonder if I’ll be next in line due to lay offs right before my baby arrives. Thank you so much Trump and to the uneducated Trump voters.\n\n?

I would say if you stop the flow of drugs into our country like Trump asked you to do and tighten up the border. There would be no problem whatsoever at all, but you say you’re an honest person and you want to get along with everyone well, just stop the drugs from coming in in East Terrace won’t be on there. Trump hasn’t seen any easing up on that border over there and things would be back to normal so it’s it’s sad he had to do that but then your retaliating and what does it do it does nothing yes Canada is gonna suffer and we’re gonna suffer here in the United States all because of your stubbornness and hardness I’ve seen over the years how you text the hell out of your own Canadian citizens and that’s why they don’t like you there, but that has nothing to do with it so

Don't worry American people they want it this problem they course the trump they want to be America great again and don't worry what is happening any American people you put your tax more than the trump number one is cut out the electric America after trump giving you mines - 200 tax cut if stop to minerals for air force stop to farmers Fortalice you can get another 200 percent tax cut is well dont think what the Americans thinking think first your own people nothing else ???

Go Canada! Such a well spoken and rational response to a completely irrational, dumb bully. If you want to pick a fight, this is what you get.

Your relationships with others do not actually depend on how well you treat them but rather on your strength and the leverage you hold. People tend to be more tolerant of the strong, while even if the weak do nothing wrong, they may still be mistreated. Even if you endure everything in silence, it is often seen as a cheap attempt to please others.

All joking aside, Canada has been able to form a symbiotic relationship of mutual benefit with the United States since even before NAFTA 1. But.......... right now it is almost like a 51st state and I do not mean that in a joking way. US states are always competing with each other, but what prevents things like, oh say the American Civil war from happening is the Federal apparatus keeps them in line for the good of the empire as a whole. \n\n If Canada is like a 51st state, then it is competing with the other 50 states in a way that all 50 of them are going to get upset about. So either the states complain, or you treat Canada as an economic competitor. Mexico being behind the United States and Canada is what makes it a good candidate for a symbiotic relationship. For all its problems, Mexico has a Christian population (with some indigenous traits) that goes well with America. Their nations different economic status means we can support them and they can support us doing different things for countries of different development stages.\n\nCanada being so similar to the United States will want that as well and will never outbid the United States. Again this is seen as a hostile economic competitor. \n\nIts not Canada or Americas fault. After 2007 and the lies about fanny and Freddie, leman bros, mortgage backed security's, and a cash shortage that was not real. How was it real if the offshore exchanges did nothing? 2007 was not financial in origin it was our global monetary system seizing up. To say Wall Street greed and MBSs did it would be like saying a single drop of cement turned the ocean to cement.\n\nBut something did. Something turned the market from liquid to concrete, it happened in France decades before......\nFinancially packaged items could no longer be priced or traded.

This video is horrible. I don't know what political angle is, but the real problems are very well known and have nothing to do with what you said. First, housing is incredibly difficult to build in Canada because of regulations and land title problems, I.e., you don't own that land, the indians do. On top of that, there is a constant influx of immigrant that require housing that doesn't exist. Children cry because they cannot leave their parents' houses because they can't move anywhere, so they can't find any jobs locally, and they're trapped. There is no will in the canadian government to change these immigration policies, to change the land rules so that people can own land and build houses, or do anything about their incredibly micro managed economy that makes it impossible to do anything. If so, yeah, they go to the US to have a future while Canada stagnants and dies.

Lady, if tomorrow Trump cancels your citizenship then you wont feel the same. As long as your house doesnt burn, all is well in world.

If you know to ask for change, u need to give proper change as well. I think such people want to populate hell. Such a unacceptable behavior. Such people should go and get their own food. Rather than troubling others and make else's life hard.

this comment section makes me so sad it’s such an example of a lack of empathy with have in america do you think all these people would be doing this running in a fucking mob with their children if they weren’t absolutely desperate. don’t you think they’re probably well aware that they won’t be able to actually beat armed militia and were doing this in protest??? can’t we critically think what drives people to do the things they do and then structural address them!!! hate will never create prosperity for all!!!

You have to send them all back or they will think maybe they can stay as well if they make it like the others. They want to destroy America. I really believe this.

When people asks what it means to be Canadian, I say it means not to come here and impose your religious and cultural traditions on other Canadians who have been here for over 400 years (ya, I know some people will comment on this and say what about what the colonialists did to the indigenous people, and I’ll say ya but we conquered this land - shiity but that’s reality). If you love your culture and religions so much, why didn’t you stay in your native country. Can you imagine going to an eastern country trying to assert your own beliefs and traditions and not not honouring their culture?! Good luck with that. I’m not religious but this country was founded on Christian beliefs. Imagine going to an eastern country and… well you know what I mean.

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).

Baaaaugh ha ha,,, please get away from our countries, but if they get cold, frost bitten or freeze....hush, be quiet and know you deserve that because you should not be sneaking Into into anybodies country. Use the energy you used to come to America with your hands out for free stuff, that ended. Why? Use that same energy in your own country and quit being lazy and do all you can to make it a better & nicer place for you & your family. Talk to your own government, just like you come here to our government begging with no pride or dignity. Well go back to your own country and talk or make appointments to talk to your home country, ask them what they can do for you and your family but also ask, what YOU can do to even make your community's a better place? mow lawns, plant a lawn,paint or work on houses,, help turn in criminals, if your williing to Chancee freezing to death, to come to America, don't do that because we the taxpayers are stuck disposing of dead bodies, but then again it might be cheaper then you being here alive, both ways, your not wanted or respected dead or alive . Stay Away, go home and make changes.

Mr. FM can you please tell us why did the Arab spring happen in the first place, if you lost that war, it's your responsibility to pull HAMAS strings as well, it's your and the rest of the arab nations moral duty that you are not fulfilling since back then.

This report is so typical of American arrogance and probably erroneous. Somehow, it's Canada who's not doing enough , but it should be the US that has increased their border security as well. If you think we condone migrant crossing, you're being ridiculous. Do your share protecting our mutual border, and stop bitching and whining. \nSmugglers from the USA bring drugs and guns into Canada. Do you care about that?? This is such inflammatory and disgraceful reporting. You sound like it's a big joke. Shame on you.

You keep saying local progressives. Well if the people keep on voting in progressives then you get exactly what you deserve.

Vermont is another entry point.\nNot easy...India is not at war with anyone or most of these nations and according to UN if they are refugees like I was after war in Bosnia you seek shelter in neighboring nations that share same or similar culture,language and traditions.\nIts by UN Law, yet they are flown in somehow,especially Chinese and many other citizens, all military age males as well. That make their way up the souther trails from Venezuela and pass through D. Pass, often even busses with Chinese funded CCP money.

Real simple.. Have bus drivers on the Canadian side check id if they're going across the border.. If ya don't have a passport then you don't get on the bus. I'm a Canadian btw and we've been invaded with millions of Indians over the last 9 years and we're sick of the BS as well. Our current gov't has caused massive damage to our country and we're all just waiting for the next election in a couple months.

Well, if you clean ur toilet. Inidian wont come\nIf u wash cars, clean, cook, become doctors, pharmacist the list goes on, the Indian or the migrants won’t come to Canada.

Nice the africans should get deported as well if your here illegality then you should go back to your country africans,mexicans,asians,indians etc. Dont just focus on latin people focus on all races

You think that they care? Well they don't as much. Also India is just a consumer base. The talent they get from India are dying to get the PR or citizenship of the foreign nation. Even if 1 indian tourist out of 20 create a fuss or throw garbage here and there, they whole country loses face. But that shear number of 1/20 due to such a huge population is so high that it become hundreds. Hence the sentiment of rejection.

My Grandma (Abuela) came here in the early 1917 she did so legally after becoming a widow paid for legal access not only for her plus 3 children she learned the English language and became a contributing citizen to the United States. No one is entitled to anything if you want something you work for it no one owes you anything just cause you want to force your way. It's irresponsible that you are putting your like as well as your children in danger.

Well maybe it's time for America to use the same rule Poland, and Korea use. And that is cross that line if you dare but do know when you do you're going to be greeted with a lot of fire power. If they act like that on the otherside towards officers how do you expect they going to act once here the law don't mean ? to these people and they show it.

People move to countries with wild dreams fantasising that everything will be easier and they will be richer. A lot of people just can't adapt to a new country. Some do extremely well. I know a lot of entrepreneurs that have gone to the US and Canada to start businesses and then they move back to their countries in South America or India to live an amazing lifestyle and travel a lot. I suppose it's nice to accumulate wealth faster and know that you have a Canadian passport to fall back on if you need to get out? I'm part first nations. I do not live in Canada for related reasons - but I love my country and what we stand for.

Why is everyone worried about them being handcuffed or shackled if they were flown back home. It would have been worst if they just dumped them in Mexico or Canada and told them go back home the way you came here. If I’m not mistaken they traveled by foot, bus, trains. So be thankful that they were flown back. Stop complaining if you don’t like American laws you all can leave the country as well. Trump/Vance!!!

When I was delivering pizzas As poor as I was I always carried More than enough correct change In paper & in coins Even as poor as I was I always made sure That I had more than enough correct change While delivering pizzas & then! If my delivery was on time & I was courteous & friendly I'd maybe get a tip Sometimes a really good tip! & I myself almost stopped getting deliverys To my home Cause everytime lately I was told! To tip! Not asked! Told to! & after a few times of using my debit & being told to tap a tip It started rubbing me the wrong way! So after more than a few times Of that happening I now started letting my girlfriend answer the door As she very rarely tips Unless our food came At a very reasonable time & if the driver was courteous & friendly & also cause She is not shy about saying I'm not tipping you! I work hard for my money! You took way to long! Or! If our food came cold! Cause you're very late! So if the bag wasn't still warm She check what'sa inside that paper bag & if it was no longer warm No tip was given! So if you want to deliver hot food Make sure! That you come on time & you have more than enough change + having enough change Helps get you your tip Cause common sense rules! Duhhhhhhhhh! & that's my tip to you Always carry more than enough change Or Not! The decision is yours to make As I always made good tips While never asking for a tip + I was always on time Never taking 4 orders I'd take 3 or less & I always made sure To thank that person as well Who just tipped me Soooooo haaaa! Put that in your pipe & toke on it Haha

one of two things here she is lyeing about her gender or her service because trans can not go to a war zone due to may reasons. women are very limited to start with.\nSo what happens if your plane was shot down you ar taken prisoner and don't get your meds not to mention what you would be treated like in the mid east. where men are goin to risk lives to free you from where you put yourself full well knowing you would not be treated as any other POW. US military would do all in thier power to free you because they never leave fallen behind. and the push would be higher knowing the treatment you would be going through.\nif being a military pilot was your dream perhaps you had a choice to live with your mind or give up your dream. some choices are hard and not fair they just are.\nas this was done by a very bias news company must question all and any information presented.

Well, that is how you stop them from running away ?‍♂️ so what if they are in shackels.

I’m shocked to see another race besides Mexicans. Soooo this means ICE is going after the Australians, Europeans, Canadians, that’s in our country illegally. You have to get them all. If you are going to target melanated people you need to concentrate on the illegal immigrants that are Caucasian as well. Fair is fair.

Who cares they should not be here. Yes what u heard was your going home. Oh well if you dont like to be cuffed and sent home dont come here.

Good \nBut the problem is - we want our Gov here to be as strict and find if they all are really Indians \nAjeeb ajeeb fraud, mafia chal rahi hein duniya mein \nHuman Trafficking and Drug Trafficking are consequences of these DUNKI methods. \nHope people don’t waste their precious lives, money, land and gold for these kind of criminal activities. \n\nAnd those who are criminals stay out of India as well. \nWe don’t want you here.

As an international lawyer, I worked for Lloyd’s of London for 17 years. You may not cross a land border, sea or air space without the permission of the nation concerned. Expelling 10 million people to bring them home means crossing one of these borders. If you do this by bus with a capacity of 100 passengers , you will need 100,000 vehicles . By plane with a capacity of 300 passengers, you will need to have a fleet of more than 30,000 aircraft. Understand that it is absolutely impossible for this to happen by violating the borders of a sovereign nation ...which would not, of course, return any of the vehicles used . People who promise, for electoral and populist purposes tell stories , lie to people who would do well to use a calculator ( and their brains ). Finally, I can’t believe that the crews of these tens of thousands of buses , planes , boats will be volunteers , who , if they manage to pass , won’t see their families again for some time .

Trump isn't deporting based on nationality. What you are suggesting is profiling, and this isn't the case here.\nThis is blatant misinformation! He made it very clear ALL serious criminal illegal criminal cases first, no matter where they come from. And if anyone else that isn't a criminal but still illegal get's detained and deported then oh well, they got to go, too.

I could give 2 fucks about their situation & trauma's. Guess what the world is brutal, ruthless, unforgiving, & dangerous. USA is no better. We have our problems as well & it's not easy. If their so proud of their heritage, nationality, culture, & ethnicity. They should go & stay in their own country & fight for the rights. Don't flee as soon as something gets hard & difficult. Blaming others for their problems. Instead of trying to impede & illegally force your way into another country as if your entitled to it or as if the world owes you something. Nobody owes or has to give you shit. \nThis is unfair to the many legal immigrants & US citizens. Who had to wait years & decades just to get approved with sponsorships. Having to fight their way to get accepted. An these illegals come in like it's fun & games. Pulling the waterworks as if we have to succumb to their will. Were struggling to help ourselves & they want us to help them. This is utterly ridiculous.

Very conservative video, coming right in time for the election. Immigrants are always an easy target, as this video shows well. At this point - Feb 2025- a lot of condos have been built in Toronto and guess what, nobody is buying!! The economy dipped with the pandemic as it happened in many other countries! When I immigrated to Canada - and I had nothing then, it was impossible to even think of buying a house, under a Conservative government. About 10 years later I was able to purchase my first home and am doing well, thank you. So are the builders in this beautiful province, close friends with the premier. I wonder if this video is independently produced - I doubt it! There are plenty of people happily living in 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. Trump is imposing steep tariffs on major US trading partners Canada, Mexico and China, with a lower rate on Canadian energy imports, said the White House on February 1, 2025. Washington will impose a 25 percent levy on imports from Canada and Mexico, with a 10 percent rate on Canadian energy resources, until both work with the United States on drug trafficking and immigration. Goods from China, said the White House, would face 10 percent tariffs. (Photo by Mandel NGAN / AFP) (Photo by MANDEL NGAN/AFP via Getty Images) \nTop Democrats warn tariffs will hit Americans hard as Trump says it’s ‘worth the price’ \nRead more \nClaudia Sheinbaum, Mexico’s president, said her government will provide more details on the retaliatory tariffs she ordered on US goods on Monday. 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.

(Frank Gunn/The Canadian Press via AP) \nToronto Raptors fans boo US national anthem after Donald Trump tariffs \nRead more \nOne fan at the Raptors game chose to sit during the anthem while wearing a Canada hat. 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.

Who cares. The military literally denies people who have legitimate skills, no health issues, and are perfectly mentally stable. Having a simple cannabis charge, 94 Asvab. Qualify for any M.O.S. and the most you can do is clean a shitter or work with oil because you would be a security risk. Which makes no sense to be able to work with oil for vehicles when you could immobilize a shit ton of vehicles... What do you think Im gonna divulge top secret material to the chinese or russians for a joint?\nIf people get denied for something like this.\nWho cares.\nAfter these past 4 years and what society has become in the US. Not a single thing I would fight for in this country.\n\nAt this point the way the LGBTQ Gestapo has harrassed people these past 4 years. You all deserve this shit and I could care less. You maybe would have more people supporting you if you actually represented honesty, fairness, integrity, and acceptance. Yet that was all a front for a hateful, toxic, lying cess pool. Me personally the way I have been harrased and lied about for years since Biden got elected by the LGBTQ Gestapo all because of people lying about me. I could care less. Let this sink in too. I would have stood up for anyone 5 years ago. Now I'd rather leave this country. Once my dog dies, I'm gone. Not because Trump got elected or any politician, because the citizens of this country make it great and well what I've seen the past 4 years is nothing I want to be around anymore. Nothing I'd fight for. \nThe constitution and foundations of this country are awesome. Yet at this point who cares when the people here are pack minded, easily psyop manipulated, sheep, who cant critically think.\nLeaving this dump of a society seems much better than fighting for it.

No matter who is the prime minister . We didn't started it and we are not taking laying down. I think this was good enough push back. If Trumpy comes for more Next thing should be the Removing EV tax credit just on Tesla. Invest in Eastern Canada pipeline and refineries , Bring crude or finished product to Montreal and start sending to Europe. Even with higher cost to refine heavy Alberta crude, we can still bring cheaper gas to Europe given that we sell our crude at 57USD to States and USA sells to Europe at 70. In today's rate Canadian finished product (With heavy refine + high transportation cost) in USA is 73USD per barrel as compared to WTI (with lower refine cost + lower transportation cost) is 82 USD. At 2024 exports levels you saved 14.1 Billion dollars per year + all refinery jobs and reason for it is the heavy discount we gave to you on crude oil. Facts tells me you are the free loader. Yeah we are small and gonna be in bad shape But this does not ends well for you too either.
