Ok…. When did Trump become a “smart guy”? He makes some pretty dumb decisions…

Great speech!! I only have my doubts about the part 'you are a smart guy...'. It's polite, but not true. Trump is dumb as hell.

Trueau was wrong .. Trump is not a very smart guy.. He's an idiot! Please make no mistake and know of the idiocy you are dealing with!

That is really true what Trudeau said. Trump is a smart guy, but he's acting stupid.\n Trump may quite possibly be smoking crack

Mr. Trudeau you made a mistake when you said Trump was a very smart guy. We know he’s not.??????

Trump made a major blunder. We're coming after your money, smart guy

not sure about the smart guy comment

Smart guy??? Trump can't even read properly. He's half illiterate.

Calling Trump smart is stroking his ego. Hès a dumb guy doing a dumb thing. Just like getting involved with the Russian mafia and the kremlin as a younger man

Smart guy Trudeau. Knows how to appeal to Trump with the biggest lie of all time: you are a smart man ?

Agreeing with the WSJ's assertion that Trump is a very smart guy is an exaggeration.

Donald smart guy? OFFS. Show me his high school and whatever college transcripts before I believe that one.

Donald, isn't a smart guy. He is a clown ?

Smart guy, dumb thing. Might've got those switched up but it's gotta be spelled out and this was a smart move.

“Donal even you are a very smart guy” ???, Putin don’t think so, fir Putin was very disappointed that it took just 90 min to make of him the most loyal puppet

I am Canadian, I have worked and studied in US for 6 years and I must say this is sad and stupid. Donald is not a smart guy like PM says he is sinister guy.

Sorry, Trudeau is wrong, Trump not a smart guy.

Come on, how can you say Trump is a very smart guy.?

Smart guy?! Thank you for being polite. Trump is the moron and the lying idiot that other idiots supporting

Donald you’re a very smart guy but this is a dumb thing to do

I applaud you PM , Canada is so lucky to have you as their PM. And us here in America, are suffering with this trying hard to be smart guy, but really dumb and stupid and un-American.

Why Trudeau, still gotta stroke TRUMP'S ego?! No,he is NOT a very smart guy!!! No, he didn't produce jobs! I wish Charlie Angus would've gave the speech. He don't kiss a**!

I stand with Canada. I despise trump. I do take issue that trump is a very smart guy. He's an illiterate idiot.

He lied too. Trump is not a smart guy.

'...but Donald, they point out that even though you’re a very smart guy...' No one with any intelligence thinks Trump is smart, that's why he's never allowed his college results to be released. Don't give in to him Canada, Mexico, Ukraine.

Justin Trudeau lied through his teeth when he said the Trump is a very smart guy.\nI've seen absolutely no evidence of any intelligence in Donald Trump.

Trump is not a smart guy just quit that frfr

The WSJ was correct in saying that this is a very dumb thing to do, but Trudeau was wrong when he said Chump is a very smart guy.

But is Trump a “smart guy”? I think we need to fact check that statement

Donald was never a smart guy! Just an idiot with a rich father.......Never to be trusted again.

Trump is NOT a smart guy for the people. He is for himself as he is stealing the wealth of America for himself. May the idea of March be with him ?

Trump is NOT a very smart guy. He is the dumbest person on the planet and is destroying the US a piece at a time.

This guy doesn't look smart and lively. Not a Canadian here and know nothing about Canadian politics.

Lets keep i real. The desire that most immigrants have is homeostasis which is the familiar. All humans do this. Individually indians are usually smart and decent people. But in groups ( and this doesnt just include indians) you get this group thinking that is prejudice against anyone who isnt one of their own. Im fairly certain its a good demonstration of what a different culture would experience in their own country. This is especially noticeable in markem with the Chinese population. \n\nLet me say this loud and clear. We didnt let you come here so you could start your own countries inside of our country. And beleive me, your gunna get rocked and put in your place if you guys keep coming here and being disrespectful. That goes for the any culture who is putting themselves first at the expense of other Canadians, and im not talking about white canadians im talking about all Canadians from anywhere. We re all equal and you will not be allowed to position your selves in a way that gives you immunity to these values. \n\nIm getting really tired of going into business like tim hortons and knowing what the nationality of the owner is by just looking around at the staff who work in fhe business. We let you have a seat at our table to break bread with us in a mutually benifital relationship. But what is pretty evident is that a lot of these people dont like us and if it was up to them we wouldnt exist. They fail to behave in a way that acknowledges the truth. That the family whos heritage is of this land, built this house that your living in. With our low corruption goverments , our clean drinking water, our free health care and education system, with our opportunities that make it possible through merit and hard work that it doesnt matter what family or where you were born. These are attractive features of canada that play a role in why people want to come here. And leave where they were. Its it logical to think that you have more to learn about us then we do of you? Not being on some selfish punk shit is canadas greatest strength. Its that same inclusives mentality that keep the government corruption very small which empowers the citizens to make them successful and able to contribute more back into this system. The very nature of hoarding resources for ones family, same culture, etc are the same oppressive situations many of these people left their countries to seek better opportunities. But once given those opportunities and a chance to decide for themselves, a lot of these people use their liberties to create exclusion and hostility toward out groups. The indians do this in a very overt in your face way, the chinese are more polite about it but both have this way of looking out for their own and not being concerned with anyone else. As far as im conerned you should all be split up and dispersered to live in different provinces and cites. I know this isnt realitic but it would save them from what a lot of them are gunna end up be exposed to which is experiences with native born Canadians who are going to very rudly show you what happens when you disrespectf someone in their own home. \n\nThe party is over. You people need to start being Canadian and care about Canadians like you care about your own culture or get the fuck out!

Has this guy realised he is bullying his allies?? \nAt some point he could need to confront his enemies and he will be ALONE. Not a smart move, this is not the way.

This guy was so angry but was smart to remain calm.

My guy is very smart ?

hi guys, come to Taiwan. People are superbly friendly and helpful, even if many don't speak English. I am on a fellowship and attending some courses at NCCU where I help MA students with their course works which gives me a lot of joy, I was once very surprised when a student brought me some gifts to thank for helping him. And he is not a freshman but a civil servant, doing a degree to advance his career. That shows not just people are smart, hard-working but value education and appreciate us, the foreigners.

If you a rat catcher, always gonna be a rat, who smart. And. You can go after it and he/she outsmart you and you lose sleep, OR you can identify that it an unusually 'gifted' rat, with purer survival instinct, and you turn a blind eye to whatever it do or when you see it. It gonna be this way, with deporting. That why, this senator not president, at this time. WHY Trump wanna race into the White House and start signing executive orders, like this guy describe? Trump smarter this time, and he not above using illegals for his personal gain. If Trump in a rush, he still in trauma about legal issue. He need to show his confidence right away, by taking his time. Walk back into his old office, set up PS5 Pro fo son, when he on vacation. Check it some of the changes he made in White House, unchanged. Change them back. This the last term.

I am so sure right now the person abusing the guy is Black. With hatred , it's always a nigga who tries to over smart and then plays victim card?

He's not even a smart man! The other guy actually runs the country!!!

Saudis are using their money right if they are investing in a good education for their leaders, and also, if they are smart enough to choose high IQ individuals as their readers. You can see that in this guy. Meanwhile, the West is doing almost the opposite.

You guys change the Apple sticker and telling others you are smart \nYou guys are utter fraud people in the entire planet\nEven Srilanka and other south asians are identifying as Indian and they are affected .\nYou know the worst thing for south Asian , we are neighbour to India

This guy is so smart

you look like a smart and well thought person and i got nothing but respect for you! and i'll take for myself, first the job : i used to be a truck driver and one of the reasons i dont drive anymore is you guys! i understand you got to work but it seems you get a liscence before citizenship, the stuff a saw your people do is crazy! second (related to the first) you cant act in canada like a assume you do in your country! we have our ways and canadians might not be the polite people we use to but still.. behave! and last to make it short : im fed up with all the woke, trans, green, taxes, firearms shits our government push on us try to blend in and it will be easyer for everybody

The Conservatives kicked the can down the road on foreign buyers/housing/money laundering as well. It is also a global epidemic. Re-just as easy to launder money? It's not. So these guy just lost my attention. Point your fingers at both parties and don't forget the Canadians who sold for ridiculous prices and thought they were winning. Corporations buying up vast units needs to be stopped. JT is on his way out. It shall be very interesting to see if the new party stops the Corporations and foreign ownership. Here in Thailand the Govt is smart enough not to let us buy up all their land and units.

Two smart guys gave the correct answer..\nDon’t blame immigration.. this country is failing to provide jobs .. The people that comes in work way harder than the people who think they belong here..\nImmigrants are the ones developing this country.. Canada was slow and laid back but when immigration doors opened it equals to rapid progress.. but now , ask the government what are they doing with the country’s revenue.. they are simply not making smart infrastructural decisions.. \nThose that say “too much immigrants “ are obviously racist or they don’t understand the technical aspect of running a country

Smart guy

You try to be smart on the system but now it didn’t work out for you guys and blame the society and Canadian government. What a joke!

It’s looking like the country where they came from is god, I can say it. There is something they call shame, dignity, Côme on guys. You have no right to do anything. Maxime Bernier, was telling to one of them: we don’t need you here. Any normal human being should say to him or herself: what I am doing here. The guy became very combative, saying if his visa is expired, he won’t have to leave. One thing they cannot understand, Canada, united states, Europe aren’t the same they were during the 70’s, 80’s, some mistakes had been made. There are way too many of them in the northern part of America and they are all over the world. The premier minister modi, last year, finishing to talk to the Australian authorities, last words: if they can the young people of India to immigrate to their country, for education, research, since almost all the big ai companies are in his country, why they don’t do the research there good god, they prefer leaving opportunities behind, to work for Walmart, Canadian tires, Tim Horton ect , very smart. Canada needs brains not hands. Give me a break. The Mexicans stopped acting like that. Unfortunately.
