Just so we are clear, bro I just moved to Brampton myself. I am a Canadian born citizen, but also Hindu Punjabi but i recently got baptized into Christianity. However, I wanted to state that the poo eating is only in one part of India more or less which you already went to and The rest of India does not condone the eating of deh poo poo. Thank you and yes their are a lot of dirty ppl also unfortunately. Facts are facts. A lot of us dont like being clean for some reason. A shower a day would be nice. Some Deodorant also would be great cuz the purchasing of deodorant seems to be quite low over here. Wish i ran into you man i would have enjoyed talking to u. Big fan.

Dangerous times we are living in I am not a fan of benign in bad terms with my neighbors trump. Exclude CANADA FROM TARIFF

As a Canadian, I am not a fan of Mr. Trudeau. But this speech is really impressive.

I have not always been a fan of Trudeau, but I have to give it to him today. You spoke with care, adressing the issues and standing up for Canada amidst this hard time. You deserve a standing ovation. Thank you Justin. I am a proud Newfoundlander, but also Proud Canadian. Hoping that hopefully Trump will choose to work with us not against us. All of us on this continent need to work as one, helping all our neighbors.

I am never a fan of our Prime Minister but today, he got my full respect and admiration. We all know it is not about Fentanyl or illegal immigrants crossing from Canada as little as they were. Donald Trump is just using these as excuse. He is cozying up with US' one of two prime adversaries - Russia and China - and whacking friends and allies, alienating the United States. Donald Trump probably is considering authoritarian rule over democracy. I can't wait for the day that his dumb action will whack him back. Sorry Americans, you are still our friends, but not your government.

I am not a fan of Justin Trudeau… but my goodness I am so proud of him right now. And I LOVE how he referred to Herr Trump as just plain old Donald — zero formality and respect. I am a firm believer in you get what you give. ❤️??

I’m not a Trudeau fan. I’m Canadian. But I am in full agreement with this speech. Well done.Justin.

I am not a fan of Trudeau and prefer Pierre but I am not above giving Justin credit for this address. Where was this Justin when we needed him. Anyways credit to Justin no matter my stand because one can see it in his face he isn’t happy and means it . ?

Not a fan of Trudeau but that was a great speech, and I am proud of what he did. He's earned my respect for siure.

I am not a fan of PM Trudeau but on this occasion, I'm willing to flipflop. Oh, my goodness, it's so refreshing to hear a country leader speak a coherent sentence, a coherent thought structure, zero vanity tripping, berating opponents, finger-wagging, screeching accusations, tantrums. And then in a second language!!! Just because I'm not one of HIS fans, I am however a massive fan of Canada. I support Canada in this situation 100%. A trade war IS dumb, and even dumber with your closest ally and neighbor. Dumb and Dumber all in one go.... wowzah....so much winning?.

I am not a Trudeau fan, and with good reason, BUT this is the first time in10 years that I have seen Justin speak so well, so powerfully, so clearly, without hesitation and with FACTS.\n\nThank you, Justin. You've impressed me today.

I'm not a fan of Trudeau's but on this I am in full agreement. When Quebec is on the same page as the rest of Canada that means something. So to all our American neighbours, YANKEE STAY HOME!!! Elbows up!

I am not a fan of Trudeau, but no one doubts his spine when it comes to threats to the country. America isn't leading anymore, it's trying to destroy its allies and instead forms alliances with dictators. Try to annex Canada and get ready for 40 million insurgents.

As a Canadian, I am not a fan of Trudeau, but he spoke well and thoughtfully today.

I am not a huge Trudeau fan, but that was a great speech!

I am not Trudeau's biggest fan by any way, shape, or form...\n\nBut he nailed it here. Wish he'd showed leadership like this for years before agreeing to step down, but better late than never.\n\nThe North will never f*cking bend the f*cking knee.\n\nIf you come for us we will come for you too.\n\nWarrior peoples don't cower from fights.\n\nCanadians are warriors, see our involvement in any war for proof.\n\nWake up, America, there's a Russian boot on your neck.

I am not a fan of Trudeau but the difference of quality and diplomacy compared to orange clown Trump is just immense

... justin. Perhaps this is not the best time to leave us although I am not a great fan of you you have made some most worthy

I had to stop listening to this panty waste! We have been trying to understand for TEN YEARS, what the Liberal/NDP Coalition has been doing/saying. Why did it take a President from another country, to threaten tariffs for them to do their jobs? Sell Out Singh, is just as much to blame, as is Croatia Freeland, Mark “Carnage” Carney! Carney probably made a deal with DT for all of this!! I am not a fan of DT, not even close, and it pains me to agree with some of the things he’s saying. JT, says 1% of drugs come from here. That’s 1000% ? ?!! They don’t even check the ports. This dude at the border is a friend of JT’s, just like everyone in his cabinet! His old babysitter, his best man, at his wedding… IRS an absolute disgrace what’s happening here! I/we just want our country back, that’s it! We NEED an election and complete change of government! JT, the failed drama teacher, had zero business being a politician, let alone a PM!! He is the absolute disgrace of Canada! His legacy, is FAILURE. Hopefully these tariffs leave when Trudope/Carnage and Sell Out are gone from office! ??????????

I actually am a fan of trump and I think he’s a strong person who will stand for the country, but what he is doing with these tariffs are gonna have long lasting effects on our country company’s will raise prices on products to make up for loss profits and that will harm who? Yes it’ll harm us the consumers somebody really needs to sit down and talk with trump before he makes a poor decision, tariffs are very easy and quick to be put onto a country but taking away tariffs not so much

i am not a trudeau fan but i am 100 percent behind him.

As a Canadian, I am not a big fan of Trudeau but I must say this was a good speech. Too bad Donald doesn’t care. BTW Maker’s Mark is one of my favorite brands. I guess I will have to quit it at least for a while. ?

I am not a fan of our Prime Minister but I stand beside him as a proud Canadian. Thank you Prime Minister Tuesday for sending this strong message to that traitor Trump. He has no clue how Canadians rallied to support Americans in our homes when 911 happened. Americans, please take your country back.

I am Canadian and by far not a fan of Trudeau, but he is absolutely right. I stand with my country and our Prime Minister.

As a Canadian, I am not a fan of Trudeau as I am a Conservative and his far left policies have made us far too reliant on the US. But I respect how he spoke today. It was a fine moment for him. Hearing him call Donald dumb was particularly enjoyable.

As much as I am not a fan of Trudeau, he nailed it. Our guys is a sham, an idiot and he's already begun crippling our nation financially. If you haven' t looked at your 401k, I'd suggest a peek. Mine's tanking as I write this...

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

Bravo….i am not a Saudi Arabia fan but truly a best Answer…

I have to admit I am not a fan of many Saudi legislators, but this man is made of different moral stuff. Well done my brother.

I am not really a fan of the tariffs Trump is imposing like lightning with Canada. I do think they should stop the walk thought to Us boarder security. I think they should however be an equal partner in securing their boarder. I don’t believe it is as much of a fentanyl thing but maybe I don’t know enough details in that.

The one thing i agree strongly with this guy even tho he is full of empty promises might get more done with congress on his side this time but too many immigrant in our country too my city is unrecognisable and i am serious its getten even a bit intimiditing tje hatred undercurrent in our city these foreigners hate our guts and its our country and we are called the hater its our help and support that is less and less our nhs overrun we sont get the services we arw due because there are too many immigrants in our countries it SIMPLE do not take ordainary people as idiots and produce all this flannel about being humanist charity begjns at home these are prinicipals our grandparents installed in us doesnt me we are unkinnd or wouldnt help anyone but tjeres a limit i feel intimidated daily by foreingers and im a hater for such remarks aye right who are you politicians kidding no wonder trump has such a following even tho i am not a fan of the man but he is bang on here

I am not a fan of Trump because of his power hungry personality, but I don't know why Biden did what he did. ?

I am sorry I am not able to understand the paradox. Less than an year ago you mentioned, in Oxford, that based upon your ‘personal yet unquantifiable’ experience at the UK border sic ‘where Indians were flaunting their passport and NONE of them in the self doubt of past century. the Immigration officer was a fan of India’? \n\nThen, your personal anecdotal account at an International stage doesn’t represent a tiny bit of reality. In most of the Schengen country we are called a ‘third world’ at immigration and always looked with a doubt. You dont have to travel these countries to get beyond your personal experience but just have a look at the queue at the US embassy in Delhi, and the way one is treated, you would have had your data. \n\nAnd now, in this video you say that a similar Immigration officer is denying visa to Indians. \n\nWhat changed in 8months?

I am not a Trump fan but what country welcome illegal migrants in? This i fully agree. Get rid of illegal migrants. Take only the qualified ones.

Also another inaccuracy here is that debt is an absolute necessity to make ends meet. Maybe if you have children or dependents, but as a single person i do not own a credit card and pay out of pocket for everything. YES it is extremely difficult and I am constantly playing it close to the chest, but I am always making ends meet and with the practice of active gratitude im reasonably content with my life. \nI think people are faaaar too used to comfort and will not know what to do when the shit really hits the fan.

Germany needs some types of skilled workers (doctors, nurses, IT engineers, etc.), but they want people who can think like a German for other office jobs. \n\nI am not a huge fan of German culture after living for 13 years but my home country Japan isn´t better for foreigners on many aspects..\n\nGerman taxation system and company cultures in the IT industry are not competitive with the US or Canada. Within Europe, I envy the digitalization of the governmental sectors in the Netherlands.\n\nThe skilled workers who may enjoy living here are the people who love the German culture. My understanding is that that is a minority, most of the foreigners I know in this country are not thrilled with the ´fun´ factor.\n\nThe people from politically unstable countries appreciate the German democracy and rules of law, which I agree with except for the accompanying bureaucracy. And the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is whole lot more scary than the German counterpart, which should not be any problem for legal skilled workers, though.

i am big fan of your videos but as off i live in Canada since 2022, I am partially agree with you about drug, house rent and medical. \n\nOther than that I’m not agree with your views on loan you can get loan easily in canada.\n\nCanadian government is deporting that students or people who has misconduct the documents or have done some minor crimes or some other issues. \n\nYes there are lots of homeless people in canada but they are homeless because of their own mistakes like drugs and etc not because of the high rent i was a international student and i was paying for my rent. \n\nYes there are so many negative views about canada but most importantly you can earn by your self which is not possible in india. You can start from small jobs in canada which will pay you a decent amount on the other hand no one can earn that much in india while doing simple job. \n\nHere I’m not saying that India is not India is the best and i love india but as you say that grass is greener on the other side. But you also show the good points about canada. And it’s not gamble i have seen thousands of Indian students who is helping their family and making their own career in canada. \n \nOne suggestion for the next time you should have conversations with international students who is living here.

The press do not agree but I watched part of the debate and Starmer did not impress me at all. Even if he has policies he will change his mind. I am not saying that I am a Tory fan and some of the prime ministers they have given us have been disaster (mentioning no names Boris and Truss) but Sunak is a a distinct improvement. Here in. Norn Iron apart from whether they unionists the parties all say they want to improve the economy, public services, health et cetera, but don’t say how because they don’t know….

Saudi people are the coolest Arabs in the world! I am not a fan of Palestinian Muslims much. Hummus went to far.

It’s sad what the country once touted as the best country on earth has fallen to. I shudder what the Trudeau Govt. would do if they were to manage 1400 -1500 Mn lives like here in India. Their system failed to sustain a mere 40 Mn population. I am not a fan of the Modi Govt. in India but I think it’s time the current govt. under Justin Trudeau focused on the current crisis instead of fostering and sheltering the Khalistanis

Hi Lynn. First of, I would like to say that I'm such a huge fan of yours. Since you started at Tuko and still following to date. You are an inspiration to me and so many people out there. I love and respect what you stand for and your work. I completely resonate with everything you are about. Second, I've lived in Canada for over 30 years now. I am Eritrean and was born in Kenya. Moved to Canada when I was about 9 and have lived here since with my family. I have to say that for us, Canada has been a God Send. It has helped us in so many ways, and we are so grateful for the opportunities and life it has given my family. From health care to schooling and job opportunities. We also cane here in 1989. So times and cost of living was very different than it is now. Of course, times have changed now, and the economy and standard of living have too. There are pros and cons to everywhere we live in the world. Everyone is different and has different experiences. There are various factors that may affect everyone's perspectives and experiences when they come to Canada, whether it was a long time ago or recently. Some factors could be, weather, economy, feeling lonely ( no family), language barriers, support...etc. Change is not easy at all and can affect t your whole emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Social life here is also not like it us back home...just alot of factors. People here work and work to make it. My mom brought us here as a single widowed mom. My sister and I were very young. But she was determined to give us a better life and worked her whole life, and it has paid off. It depends on how you look at everything and what your goal is. My mother was determined and made it happen and has raised us on her own very successfully. She loves Canada and appreciates it for everything it has done for us. Everyone's experiences are different. You have to do your research before coming and come with an open mind. Overall... Canada for us has been a blessing. \n\nI hope that helps somehow. But again, everyone's perspective and experiences are just as valid and rightfully so. \n\nI hope to meet you someday. Love you, Lynn, From Canada ?? ❤️

I have had a home base in Toronto for the last 20 years, traveling almost consistently for work until covid hit. While I am not a fan of the city tbh, I have stuck it out there this whole time as I have not been able to figure out where else in Canada I'd rather live. The way things have gone in the last little while however, I'm now making plans to leave Canada altogether. Even though I am unaffected by high housing costs as I've owned a home in the city, the general cost of living across Canada is now extortionate for what you get. Toronto was fine for me to use as a base for my traveling lifestyle in the past, but with crappy weather much of the year, a left leaning electorate that keeps voting ultra woke politicians at all levels of government, the now increased cost of living there is no longer worth it to me. I'm headed for the exit. All this said, I don't feel that your coverage about crime in the city was balanced. Yes the news stories you used actually did happen, but I do not feel unsafe in the city. A handful of incidents in a city with the population of Toronto - this is a blip.

I am a big fan of you. But ...... aysha we are muslims and we should not be shaking other men hands . Shaver brother you should know this too. Follow your Islam culture too?

This is all happening under Joe Biden you know sleepy Joe.? I am no fan of Donald Trump believe you met but Joe Biden is too old to run these politicians are like old willow trees you just won't let go of Life in politics. So Joe Biden to know much better against these people coming into our country after 178,000 came in under his watch alone then Trump did. But Biden is too old no countries afraid of them roshes out-of-control China ?️ property that's not theirs, and let's just face it and let's just say it the Democrats are not only pushing their own agenda which is dismissing everybody else's voice but don't agree with them this is the group that came from Facebook Google and Twitter where they spent 25 years being brainwashed and brainwashing others and they also suffer from the effects of covid. Political correctness is absolutely crazy and not everybody's going to get along just cuz you silence people's voices and refused to give white people rights or loans you cannot make right what happened 850 years ago let's stop trying let's move on and let's make everybody feel like their voice matters and just because their experience is different than yours doesn't mean that there were trumpster a liar a wacko.

I am not racist but no one should be allowed in this country illegally. Not a Biden fan or supporter but not a Trump fan either. I do agree with Trump on not allowing illegal immigrants into the country. They have to go through the legal steps like all foreigners who take years to become a citizen. You can't skip the line. Also, they bring a lot of Mexican gang members over who murder people in the US and are racist. Biden sucks for this. I'm African American also. Housing is already bad. My building is full of Hispanics that trash my building destroyed property disrespect other tenants. I am neither dem or republican but lean towards republican in cases like this.

People don't understand that it's illegal! Also as a Canadian Tax Payer, why do I have to take the burden of paying for these freeloaders? Canada has their own homelessness and our citizens to deal with! Also it isn't fair to a person who is trying to come to Canada legally! I am not a fan of Pretty Boy Justin but this was the smartest decision he made!

I agree with you esp the first two reasons. Im an immigrant from the Philippines.. have been living here for over 13 yrs and i am DONE. I hate how i can ONLY get my life for the 2 months of the year.. i am not a big fan if the cold. No matter how much clothes I wear during the cold dreary months, i am freezing. Plus it’s soo repetitive here. Living in the lower mainland, you do the same things over and over. Beach, lakes, park. ? they get boooring after years.

AoA ashir bhai, From Dhuwan to Wazir, i am not only a big fan just bcoz ur celerity but u r a person whose values reflect to improve society, personal life and family.\nWhile watching this episode, i am now well equipped with my luggage to carry while coming next few weeks to settle in Canada.........Vencour. \nyour advices are well noted and shall be guide to follow in Canada.\nJazakALLAH kahir Ashir bhai.

5000/Pm salary in India? Really. Even the worst of graduates get 15000 pm. I too am Punjabi but not a fan of Canada, nor any country except India. The street food, the smell of soil in Pind, Rajasthan architecture, Kerala beauty, North East Greenery, Punjabi sweet prepared in Desi Ghee not fake ghee in western nations made of A1 cow
