America, the world's bully. What a sad time we live in.

Trump will cause more harm than good..watchout ..He thinks America can live without the support from one another ?..wenall need one another..All these is crazy ?

I was born and raised in America on 56 years old and I can't even get an apartment and hear they're giving these immigrants 68,000 and 6 months to live on just handed to them for free. And I can't even get my tax refund that they owe me from 2018 $5,000 because I have to prove that it's me and they're giving me such a hard time they keep saying no it's not you answer these questions wrong. Whatever freaking Biden Harris just destroyed this country in 4 years

Apparently no one there gives a crap about those children, jesus christ. If you wanted to solve the immigration issue, you fix the issue of why these people want to leave their own countries. The USA in Hollywood has said for as long as it's been alive that in America you can live the dream and that America is the best, so why are you surprised when these people show up wanting the same thing. If we didn't have asshole dictators, this likely wouldn't be a problem, but you know how power hungry greedy c##ts are.

Well, good that South America is having a Latin summit. Hope they can talk about how they can make South America better. That way citizens dont have to risk their lives crossing through Mexico.

About time cut the crap work. Americans need to get on same page you want more great create more value you don't create for others to make lives better than no pay \n\nWe are community. Hard times shoot we have all been there thinking someone thinking besides yourself is responsible is a lie. You enter this earth with curses or bless from your parents and generations so what you going to do sin more and curse your family more or not pass the buck and obey Jesus..\n\n\nJesus said to serve and sluggers aka people who don't serve others don't deserve to eat. What he's trying to tell when he's saying work to serve others like you do him is people have all you ever wanted so learn how to be of value and service. America you can do so will it be easy no but we need to stop corruptness.\n\nI paid for my familys curses so my children don't have and what does the wicked tell me it's not fair when you work three jobs to come up and constant study of improvement of personal value I'm so so so sick of liars trying to to blame people of there conditions instead of turning to the king who will work all for good stop having faith in the wicked man god sent the sinless to lead you to right truthful stop believing convient lies from atheist.\n\nHeck even Rome couldn't stop Jesus words so instead try to control it with claiming there Christian don't make there sol victorious worship and Mary worship or sun/moon worship Rome was made from as truth. Please get the Bible and check for yourself study both sides prove Jesus isn't real.\n\nOnce you learn Jesus is here to lead u out of your self-destructiveness and knowing your sin curses your children this stuff will stop. \n\nYou can claim whatever but I can't disagree if Jesus didn't come our life would be 100x worse everywhere as America was built strongly after his words \n.

America stands as the last empire on Earth, remaining the only one that dominates every corner of the globe and can reach any land or sea with remarkable speed. Most Americans are hardworking individuals living paycheck to paycheck, and about 80% lack a passport because they cannot afford to travel abroad. These individuals are loving, caring, and humble. America is already great enough, yet everyday folks never truly experience that greatness. Why does Mr. Trump strive to make America even greater? Because the American ruling elites suffer from a brain virus known as «hubris»!

Elites want Mass Immigration only for the Sake of Cheap Labor.\nIts Inhumane and Unchristian to Support Mass Immigration that leads to Suppression of Wages for the Working Class.\nNote: Most Working Class American work in the Construction, Retail and Hospitality Sectors and in these Same sectors most Illegal Immigrants also works, this leads to Suppression of wages in these Sectors, that directly hits the Living Standard of Poor Working class People of America.

Trump is doing this stuff out of spite not to help America but to try and hurt foreign countries trying to force them to do the things he wants. Trumps spite is gonna effect the USA citizens pockets we are gonna pay higher prices on the goods now. Yall his supporters talking about yall want something different in a president OKAY YALL GOT WHAT YOU WANT TRUMP IS GONNA HURT YALL WAY OF LIVING ALSO.

THIS IS INSANE. WE DO NOT NEED THIS IN OUR COUNTRY WHEN WE HAVE SO MANY HOMELESS AMERICANS TO DEAL WITH. THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE WILLING TO BREAK OUR LAWS TO GET IN THE COUNTY.... THEY WILL DEFINITELY CONTINUE TO BREAK THEM ONCE THEY ARE HERE. MY HEART GOES OUT TO THEM ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE HUMAN BEINGS AND OBVIOUSLY LIVE IN A PLACE THAT IS TERRIBLE ENOUGH TO MAKE THEM RUSH OUR BORDERS HOWEVER... THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE... ALSO WE KNOW THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RELEASE OF THE PRISONS IN THOSE SOUTH AMERICAN AND CENTRAL AMERICAN PRISONS WHERE THEY TOLD THE PRISONERS AND MENTAL HEALTH PATIENTS IN THOSE COUNTRIES THAT IF THEY CAN GET ACROSS THE AMERICAN BORDER THEY WILL BE FREE AND THEY WERE SHIPPED TO THE SOUTHERN BORDER AND GIVEN FREE SHOT AT A LIFE IN AMERICA AND NOT IN PRISON.... WHAT WOULD YOU DO???? YOU WOULD DO ANYTHING TO GET ACROSS THAT BORDER ALSO

Baraja they could live at your house. You country has been ruined by them, violence and school shootings, shop lifting, \nWake up, your paying for them. If they want to live in America go through the appropriate channels like everybody else has to.

They think they are entitled to free money, housing etc you never paid a dime into the system .Donald Trump will stop this big time .I'm british and sadly still live in the uk voting trump into power was a very smart move by the American people .America first American people first if your foreign and don't like it get out and don't come back I so wish we could do this in the uk.if reform get in in 2029 we will god willing

I came from Asia, I came legally. It was difficult to enter the US. I had live in the US for 5 years before getting the right to take a test to be the citizen. It is not fair that they just across the US border then get the place to live, get free mobile, and get citizen so soon. It is not fair for the Americans who have worked hard and pay tax, then money from tax paid to feed illegally. These tax money suppose to take to developed the communities in America and the care for American !

don’t judge too much. I’m not saying this is good for anyone that is living in ????. we already have a very bad housing crisis etc happening . but i definitely understand why they come.i have great empathy for them .. i feel horrible for them. these people aren’t lining up for black Friday deals or Taylor Swift tickets. these human beings are living in poverty, in danger in their own home countries. They want better for their children!! i’d actually question why they didn’t try for better (not actually, i have no right to judge them ..the lack of $ and danger would make most adults question if it’s the right thing to do). \nwe really need to remember...we aren’t special as human beings. we don’t deserve to live here more then they do. Our families just happen to cross the ocean(we weren’t even from the same land, like most of them, they want to cross a boarder that WE created) in the right decade, right century!! \nwe all came here and took from others. when we bought our land, built our homes, etc if you think back really it didn’t belong to them to sell it to us. It was stollen lands from the Native Americans. And we did such horrible things to natives for centuries!! we TOOK TOOK TOOK while nothing but destruction was given to them in return They are the REAL AMERICANS!!! \nAnd we killed them, we destroyed their communities, separated families, brought and spread diseases that killed thousands, kicked them off of their lands to go to areas we knew they couldn’t thrive, then we took their rights to hold & spend their own money, then stole that money that was to help them set up communities crops food and left them for dead !! we stole their babies from their mothers and fathers and we did this as recently as 50 years ago. \nso remember the day the first white man stepped on North American land was the last day we could say this was the land of the free !! \n\nwe have taken taken and taken from the ? fkd the world over.\nRemember..Americans are the reason south America has the dangerous gangs, cartels poverty,corruption,deaths we buy 40% of all drugs made there just one country buys 40%!! but why change things...when our leaders are benefiting hugely from the chaos. who cares about Mexican, South America families Just get them off our doorsteps ..right. ?\njust don’t think we aren’t Next !! ????

My lord ….why people don’t understand about rules . Did everyone are forgetting about 911 !?!?? Do the right thing for better future nature. But !?The problem this society social media, make people jealous about life things, materials things, make people do bad things . For that !? We are destroying the world ? . I remember when the dollar was less than 2 reais, Brazilian currency . The time was the President George W. Bush family . I never forget the tragedy on the 911 . I remember The US , send Military to find the responsible the 911 , lots money was involved to support the soldiers .Lots country the time was not involved in the 911 . But did get the chance pays all the bills too “ because the money was going down quickly , gave one good opportunity to payback he United States money ?. Then thought The Americans never get back after, 911 !? Americans are amazing people, because they’re responsible pay for their own taxes , to support the country . Resume :::::::1= pays the bills to the United States of America, so the people from another country don’t live , to come to America ??. 2= make the money universal : if don’t “ the war will getting worse . The president the United States of America , Trump deserves respect ?? if you don’t . Bad times come true , to kip the American save . So much things to do with this planet ?, but people’s always want burn ? petroleum, for not being productive enough to care about the environment planet ?. We must use more Electric ⚡️ cars , to have better chance future rainy . ?

Must everybody live in America ? Are they not aware that many Americans are homeless and in need of jobs and means of sustainable livelihood

I dont live in America but well done Trump, if you are legal nothing to worry about so yeah amazing move . Wish we had him here

Why they want to be here in America but when they come here they start representing the country that they don't want to live in, just go back to where you came from ?

My parents both born in the states. They renounced their citizenship in the 60s. They said they’d never move back and only visited twice because my grandparents lived there. Plus, North America isn’t the best when it comes to being advanced with technology.

Is it so hard to just migrate legally? I mean, all u have to do is go through the necessary steps and they’ll be able to live in America as an actual citizen. Then they wouldn’t have to worry about something like this.

This mass exodus is scary.. where & how they will live? America has massive inflation & also suffers economic hardship right now. This is insane, thank God Trump is President ??

Seeing this is so sick they need to use that all energy to take that their own government. Why don’t nobody in America speak Spanish to them all to let them know go back and fight for your own country. It shows the coward in them and they feel like we are weak and this is why they do these things. They also come over here and treat us the same way as humans and as US citizens why they use and live off of us.??

For myself America is the last country in the world that I would want to live in

There's no economy growth here for the millions of ppl the govt are pure in the country c.a not even have a trillion dollar company in the country, America has give trillion dollar company, that's why America so powerful and can do what they want, I'm saying what or these millions of ppl going to lived on live in the country food prices or through the roof right now it causing one person at least $300 a month so my question is where they going to livd under bridge the govt not building apartments building for the average ppl to lived so what going to happen to the average workers in Ontario, a one bedroom apartment is for $2500 plus light no average ppl can afford it. What even make it worse the govt give apartments owners the right to rase rent $60 a month when no employer paying the average workers $120 a month in Ontario that's why ppl or run out the the apartments building because its impossible for dem to keep up to that kind of rent.

What kind of American democracy is this , one man show , discarding existing system of rules without proper discussion of prose and conse in the senate of such haphazard action , which will impact on many human lives . Legal and illegal is a system of paper slavery , humanity is core character of civilised society , it should be based on humanism not only on documentation , which America is famous for !?

Just because you waited in Mexico? That doesn’t mean they grant you entrance! Living in America is not a human rights! But a privilege!

As a country there is nothing wrong with Mexico and many Americans retire there. I dont understand why people can't migrate there? I mean they are already there, and living well why do they need to proceed to America?

Mexico’s Economic Apocalypse: My Personal Analysis\n\nThe imposition of a 25% tariff on all Mexican imports by the United States would be nothing short of an economic death sentence for Mexico. As someone deeply concerned about the integrity of U.S. borders, sovereignty, and the well-being of American citizens, I believe this tariff is both justified and necessary. Mexico has repeatedly ignored its responsibilities as a neighbor, and it is time for accountability. Let’s examine the devastating impact this tariff would have on Mexico in brutal, undeniable detail.\n\n\n---\n\nEconomic Collapse: A Nation on Its Knees\n\nMexico’s economy relies heavily on exports, with over 80% of its exports destined for the United States. A 25% tariff would obliterate Mexico’s competitive edge, pricing its goods out of the U.S. market. The result? A $100 billion annual loss in trade revenue—a wound so deep it would cripple the nation’s economy beyond repair.\n\nGDP Freefall: With exports constituting 28% of Mexico’s GDP, the tariff would slash growth rates and plunge Mexico into a severe recession. Entire industries would collapse under the weight of unsold goods and lost revenue streams.\n\nMassive Manufacturing Shutdowns: Mexico’s lifeblood industries—automotive, electronics, and steel—would face annihilation. Plants dependent on U.S. buyers would grind to a halt, leaving millions unemployed.\n\n\n\n---\n\nSocial and Humanitarian Crisis: A Nation in Chaos\n\nThe economic fallout wouldn’t just affect industries—it would decimate millions of lives:\n\nUnemployment Epidemic: With factories shuttered and exports decimated, unemployment would skyrocket, leaving millions of families destitute. Entire regions reliant on U.S. trade would become economic wastelands.\n\nHuman Desperation: Widespread poverty would fuel desperation, leading to a surge in crime, social unrest, and violence. Mexico’s already fragile social fabric would unravel, plunging the nation into chaos.\n\nMass Emigration: Unable to survive in their homeland, millions of Mexicans would flee to the United States, creating an unprecedented border crisis—ironically the very issue the tariff seeks to address.\n\n\n\n---\n\nFinancial Ruin: Mexico’s Peso in Freefall\n\nThe peso would face catastrophic devaluation, losing value faster than at any point in modern history. This would create:\n\nHyperinflation: Everyday goods would become unaffordable for the average citizen. The price of imported essentials—like medicine and machinery—would skyrocket.\n\nInvestor Exodus: Foreign investors, seeing no future for Mexico’s economy, would abandon the country. Capital flight would cause Mexico’s stock market to crash, sending shockwaves through the financial system.\n\n\n\n---\n\nThe Root Cause: Mexico’s Negligence\n\nMexico has brought this apocalypse upon itself through years of neglect and willful inaction:\n\nIllegal Immigration: Mexico has consistently allowed massive waves of illegal immigrants to flow across its northern border, destabilizing U.S. communities and eroding American sovereignty.\n\nDrug Trafficking: The unchecked trafficking of fentanyl and other deadly drugs through Mexican cartels has killed tens of thousands of Americans annually. Mexico has done little to combat this epidemic, allowing cartels to thrive.\n\nBroken Promises: Despite agreements and warnings, Mexico has failed to step up as a responsible partner. Words without action are meaningless, and the time for talk is over.\n\n\n\n---\n\nWhy Trump’s 25% Tariff is Justified\n\nPresident Trump’s 25% tariff isn’t just an economic tool—it’s a weapon of justice aimed at holding Mexico accountable for its negligence. Here’s why this move is essential:\n\n1. Securing U.S. Borders: Mexico’s failure to stop illegal immigration has forced the United States to act decisively. This tariff will compel Mexico to finally enforce its borders and prevent illegal crossings.\n\n\n2. Protecting American Lives: The flow of drugs like fentanyl must stop. By crippling Mexico’s economy, the tariff weakens the cartels that profit from this deadly trade.\n\n\n3. Economic Leverage: The U.S. is Mexico’s largest trading partner. Without access to the American market, Mexico’s economy collapses. This leverage ensures Mexico has no choice but to comply with U.S. demands.\n\n\n\n\n---\n\nA Brutal but Necessary Move\n\nYes, this tariff would cause unimaginable suffering in Mexico, but that suffering is a direct result of its government’s failures. President Trump is not to blame—Mexico is. By ignoring its responsibilities, Mexico has forced America to take a stand. The economic apocalypse that follows is the price Mexico must pay for its negligence.\n\nThis is not just about punishing Mexico—it’s about protecting the United States. It’s about securing our borders, saving American lives, and ensuring that the U.S. economy is not undermined by a neighbor that refuses to act responsibly. In the end, the 25% tariff is a painful but unavoidable reckoning for a nation that has long shirked its duties. The survival of Mexico’s economy depends entirely on its willingness to change course—and fast.

Canada is starting to push back because there’s so many illegal Indians and most of them use the nation to go and live in America illegally.

?.... after one year Canada census show Toronto and surrounding boundaries gain over 3 million people, the # 1 influx of people in all of North America.\nSo let me get this straight your view of Toronto is different from millions and they're still coming?\nHow I gauge if Toronto is changing for the bad is simple.\nI walked a two mile radius of my home and what I see is improvement after improvement. And if I see dumping for example I call 311 and within 48 hours it's gone.\nOne thing I find very odd...for a country and city where cost of living the highest ever....why is everyone spending money improving their property...none are rundown.

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

If you can sense the prevalence of Indian opinions on their social media, most are pro and sympathize with Russia. They are bashing the west every chance they have. Yet we don’t them running to Russia to live there, but America and the west.

Chinisaton or Indianization of Canada ..., has made it impossible of professionals to obtain jobs or keep jobs and therefore afford to live in Canada... Only Chinese/Indian with large communities and helped by their government ... can find ways to establish and bring more people in North America to colonize it in time Totally. White people especially males are discriminated, bullied, and forced out of their jobs in order to be replaced by Asian employees!

Speak the truth my brother. I live in the UK and refused to go to any other EU nations or for that matter Dubai NZ Australia etc. What's wrong with Salvador Brazil, African nations, the Caribbean and Latin America? Until we as black folks decolonised our mindset we will continue to think and act slavishly to be bemusement of the Muzungus.

HAVE THE NERVE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT BROWN IMMIGRANTS IN BRAMPTON OR ANYWHERE ELSE IN CANADA ???\n\nIf not for those NOT WHITE immigrants coming to Canada, Brampton would be like any other little city in Canada and would have diminished in population . The Whites alone couldn’t have provided enough of tax revenue to build infrastructure or maintain social programs.\nDue to projected low birth rates, The politicians did a quick fix to increase tax revenue. They offered IMMIGRATION to get working young families who already had education, skills and professions without investing a penny or offering help. Those Immigrants have to pay couple of thousand dollars to apply for immigration and have to prove that they have enough money until they find jobs.. They can’t claim welfare for few years either. By choice many Europeans don’t want to come to Canada. If not for those immigrants who work the aging population couldn’t have got pension.\n\nMUST ABSORB WHITE CANADIAN CULTURE ? English, German, Polish,Austrian, French , Spanish, Russian, Irish, Scottish, Greek, Italian, Turkish. ……..? WHICH ONE ?\nWhen Whites went to Anywhere. In Asia, Africa, Middle East , America, Canada and Australia did they absorb those cultures?\nDid they even ask for permission or get visas ?\nDid they not kill , massacre , rape ,torture and abused natives of those continents?\nDidn’t. The whites rob Or took by force all types of valuables, National treasures of those countries ?\nDidn’t the Whites forced their culture and religions to the Natives and punished them if they wouldn’t ?\n\nLook at Brampton now ! Look at those immigrant children ! Majority of them are university educated and hard working and paying taxes so all of us can live well. If the majority in a city is not like us, then we should learn their culture ?\nI look at the diversity and ENJOY AND feel the pride of a Canadian.\nITS NOT WHO WE ARE AND WHEN WE CAME BUT WHAT WE DO TO CONTRIBUTE TO OUR CANADA

⁠We “Black” Indigenous American-Indians are STILL HERE in America. We were NOT killed or poisoned. Black” Aboriginal Indigenous American Indians (Aboriginals, Amerindians) were captured and ENSLAVED (American Indian Slavery) in OUR OWN LAND, America (millions)….while millions of others remained as the Free People of Color while living on and off “Black” American-Indian reservations throughout the Southeastern United States. \n\n“Black” Aboriginal Indigenous American Indians (Aboriginals, Amerindians) are NOT FROM AFRICA (>98.8%). Less than (<2%) of the American slaves were IMPORTED from foreign territories, including Africa. “Black” Aboriginal Indigenous American Indians are the ORIGINAL and FIRST PEOPLE of North America pre-Colombian and pre-Siberian Mongolian/Asian Immigrant invasion (so-called Native Americans)\n\n“Black” Aboriginal Indigenous American Indians (Aboriginals, Amerindians) of North American, USA Descendants are STILL HERE in America (misnomer: African Americans) with a GROWING, POWERFUL and STRONG USP (>42%).

These are east Indians coming from the UK. They had US visas from the UK. What is Canada to do when they are in transit passengers from the UK and given fake or real but seems fake US visas. All international intransit passengers dont go through customs at their stop over country. Its an international fact. The East indians knew that if they boarded their flight to the US they would get sent back to the UK and hence India so they decided to illegally cross our border. Canada could not have prevented this. But now that we know this is what they need to do , we along with the Americans should step up our security. They could be terrorists. For decades we lived with a non secure border now foreigners are fuc**ng with our safety. India take some responsibility. You boast on the world stage and scold others, well what do you have to say now. Canada and America should tax India for the time and resources they have had to use since Moody says India is the 5th largest economy and they have money. Please if you want to come do it legally.

I worked as a nurse in Florida when I first graduated. It was devastating to see how stressed people were about being hospitalized because they knew how their life finances were going to be wiped out. In Contrast Canadian patients only need to concentrate on being well again. \nWomens rights are being rapidly eroded in America. Childbirth is covered in Canada,abortions are legal and women get 1 year of paid maternity leave.\nOur children don’t have to participate in active shooter drills because of our tight gun laws. Our taxes are higher but the social networks are covered by these taxes. \nThe Canadian way of life is generally ,slower and ,I find, more accepting of immigrants, LGBTQ folks, and marginalized people.\nPersonally I moved back to Canada because I missed the change of seasons and the slower pace. I enjoyed my time living in America and have many fond memories of the time I spent there.Moving back to Canada was the right move for me

The problem is poverty and the lock of respect for other people jobs and liveley wood u cant go to roame a d change rome u do what the roman do u can put people out of the job mashing up there lively wood and u are from a diffrent continent not because your parent give birth to you in canad that doesn't mean you have continental right to AMERICA INDIANA DISTROY CANADIAN ECONIMY BUY PUSHING CANADIAN OUT OF THERE JOB NOT SMART! U SET UP YOUR COMMUNITIES TO BE HATE BUY EVERY OTHER RACE

Family members who have been here for 20 to 30 years? They have children who have never grown up in Mexico. America is their home. Can they come live with her when the parents are deported? Or will they be sent to a country they do not know.

You don't gotta go home, but you can't stay here. We as Americans say you can't stay in America, but you don't have to go back to Venezuela. Remain in Mexico was a policy that worked. Every face better be getting recorded so we can identify them while they're living here illegally.

How do people think that all immigration law in the United States doesn’t exist. This is crazy. Americas population small compared to globe. Not everyone’s had 6 kids each and wants ti live like sardines

Even with the guns like. We have guns here. We just don’t think it’s better to have barely any regulation control or laws about attaining them owning them and what is appropriate use of them versus not. To watch Americans defend their right to bear arms as a reason to entirely ignore the amount of gun violence , combined with insane laws that literally enable or encourage said violence , from people who are not in anyway necessarily trained to asses or handle as safely as possible , urgent situations. To have any children or schools shot up not immediately cause a national need to solve the problem but jsut have it ongoing and not much change to address the issues of innexsssary gun violence to not just Canadians but a lot of the world , looks entirely insane and white honestly idiotic lol I’m just being real. \n\nTo spend the amount yall do on military to feel safe , but have such unsafe conditions in the general public is crazy to a lot of us. Outside America. Yall are a danger to yourselves and okay with that? Lol same thing with food and nutirion and fda things that are acceptable and legal but banned everywhere else ?like. You guys do realize ur safety is not only about who owns the most guns you will be less safe if ur health is poor, bec of insane things being legal to be sold and eaten , healthcare is not easily accessible , and the gun violence of ur own is always a possibility like. How does that feel safe ? \n\nI have a friend who went to school on scholarship and now works married and lives there and she hates it and feels terrified all the time. Her own husband is American and owns a gun but she hates it hates guns now. And is exhausted and has anxiety issues as a result of a lot of the culturally and legally normal gun ownership and attitudes there. A lot of Canadians would feel the exact same way. And to WANT your country to be run and managed that way screaming it at the top of ur lungs is. Bonkers bat shit crazy to many of the rest of us. Ur not the only country where it’s legal to own guns and have them, but yet we’re not hearing about school\nShootings as a problem that just never gets solved and everyone who lives there sort of shrugs about ? lol it’s. Odd. To. Us.

Idk i think you need to realize that we also have our bias in addition to you having yours. Meaning, to most of us , excepting the most left leaning socially progressive pockets and contexts , which even then wouldn’t be viewed that way to us just acceptable lol ?\n\nOur baseline/political middle in Canada is A LOT more left leaning than the baseline normal/political middle in the states. So while people tend to equate your democrats to our liberals or our NDP , and equate your republicans to our conservatives. It’s just not accurate. If you throw our span of parties and American span of parties on the SAME spectrum /polarity line. You might be surprised to realize how shifted left our systems range politically is from the American one. \n\nThis hugely impacts the average normal expectation , what we clutch our pearls at hearing coming out of the mouths of the general public , and our range of what we expect to not hear or see ranted about unless they’re to our view , extremely right leaning politically /social values. \n\nFor us this means that actually genuinely , a lot of America does get experiences by us as bat shit crazy racist homophobic immigrant intolerant culturally and religiously ignorant , and somewhat backwards in larger or smaller amounts ? I know that’s not fun to hear but. Being the most diverse country based so much on immigration means. What is normal and known /familiar and normal so we aren’t ignorant to , is completely different. \n\nFor us we have our pockets usually in more rural less populated areas further away from larger cities where there is more diversity but that’s the same often in many countries that you will find some of the louder racist homophobic intolerant voices typically in places that truly are unfamiliar and ignorant to the experience of growing up with and around much of any diversity of varying kinds. So it’s not to say we don’t have racism and intolerance of course like anywhere we do. It’s just contained and the range and frequency and intensity is MUCH different. We distinguish nuances of diff cultures and religions more easily and in larger numbers we’re more familiar with diff ways of life , language , food, dress , holidays , values and used to a much less segregated way of existing even when we are differnt from each other as the NORM. My parents were both born in the states and my older brother was born there but they moved up here when he was a baby. So nearly all my extended family lives down there and I’m a duelly. And my experiences discussing things with my cousins or visiting absolutely could be described as culture shock at times. The insane things that came out of my own cousins mouths when they hear our friends or partners of various cultures , our not understanding how big a deal and incredibly insulting apparently it is to have assumed someone American was lgbt lol the list goes on. Like I don’t think our most intolerant Pockets can hold a flame to even ur closet to middle a bit intolerant places and contexts in America. Quite honestly. \n\nI think the absolute undying favourable passionate upholding and support of nationalistic, capitalist, hyper individualistic mentality about society as a whole (from my Canadian born and bred perspective lol) makes the differences even more glaring blaring and hard to swallow for us lol. I think more Canadians would feel exactly how that comment stated , that you felt was not fair for us to experience America as. I think the truth is a lot of Canadians are being too polite to let you know that’s exactly how a lot of America comes off to a lot of Canada ?

IF TRUMP LIVE TO BE ONE HUNDRED YEAR'S OLD. MIGRANTS, HISPANICS WILL STILL BE IN AMERICA\n FACT'S THEY ARE ESSENTIAL AND EXTRAORDINARY TO OUR ECONOMY. MOST OF THEM ARE GOOD PEOPLE. I BLACKK AND I LOVE THEIR UNITY AND LOVE FOR EACH OTHER AND THEIR FAMILY ORIENTATION. ?

wow this is just an opinion video of sorts, but guess i'm proud to live in montreal. i own the last army surplus store here. 1423 st laurent. i love montreal as a city, the food is second to none for all of north america. um, weather is full winter during dec to feb. i also live near magog in the eastern townships which is beautiful.\ni've been to pei, love it there, great beaches and very quiet. never been to BC, and living here, i would never visit the middle of canada, just flat and boring and drugs are a big problem and homelessness. cabot trail in ( i did it on bicycle) is fabulous. quebec city, amazing.\ni'm a proud canadian and surely there are far worse countries in the world to live in. but when i retire full time , it will leave for a warmer climate (snow bird) in the winter. not florida, too busy and not nearly as nice as the Caribbean, i go to Curacao 1 month every winter. perfect weather and being dutch has great food and is safe island and beaches are second to none........

I live 2 meters away from America??

I’m an American citizen who was born in the United States (Hawaii). Everyone has the right to support or not support President Trump’s plans for mass deportation. The interviewer asked this Mexican American woman her opinion and she’s entitled to her opinion. There are a lot of Hispanic people who agree with Trump. I don’t think she’s turning her back on her family by saying “it’s okay” if they get deported. I think she’s respecting and supporting the rules of Immigration laws to have legal documentation to live in the United States. Rather than disrespecting and ignoring Immigration laws the way her family did. I think in a way she’s saying “it’s okay” her family gets deported because they deserve to be penalized for breaking Immigration laws for entering and staying in America for 20 or 30 years illegally which is valid and understandable. It comes down to the phrase “You commit the crime you do the time” whether it’s family or not. I believe she has a leg to stand on because she followed Immigration laws, received her Green Card and is living in the United States legally. If a family member of mine committed a crime and were put in jail or deported back to their country I would say “it’s okay” too. You reap what you sow.
