Trump is (clinically) a malignant narcissis. Hi personality needs to be fed by a constant flow of accolades from his chosen lackeys. He is so easily played by people whispering in his ear that he is being slighted (Zelensky and Trudeau, even if it is imaginary. It is ridiculous that America has allowed this to come about by their majority of incredibly ignorant voting populace. Starmer showed how to handle Trump. Grovelling and obsequious flattery. Noting else. We are dealing with a President of the USA who has a low IQ even lower EQ (think of a vindictive 10 year old). He has sly animal cunning for sure but that's it. We have 4 years of this moron, God knows what damage he can cause. The thing that motivates him ? Challenges, aspirational acts of benevolence ? Don't be silly tuckers and lovers, it's lovely money, as much as is endlessly possible. Is that the American dream? Is that what makes this English speaking nation tick. Looks very much like it.

I’m a Canadian and this guy ‘Trudeau is a FAILURE’ he is supposed to be stepping down shortly. He is fake, he has made our country horrible, he imprisons his own people. He is evil, he is wicked. He should be put in prison for Life! He has broken so many laws it’s insane. The stupidity out of all these governments blows my mind. Time for grownups to run the show and actually keep their promises, and actually do what is right! Whatever you do do not listen to Trudeau he is evil(lover of Satan). I will spend my lifetime dealing with his failures. #trudeausucks #imprisonhim

Very good response from Trudeau...the world is dealing with a lunatic and his gang...Trump

Trudeau is dealing with a malignant narcissist. Even if Trump wants to, he can’t back down because he thinks it’ll make him look weak. America’s voters completely underestimated the danger of Trump’s personality disorder.

We have no Govt. Trump is dealing with a loser that has already resigned. We have had no GOVT since early December in Canada, because Trudeau put the Liberals before Canadians. Majority of our country doesnt want that fucking loser leading us in this mess, his words are WORTHLESS.

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

He is not my legacy! I am so embarrassed and heartbroken. ? \nI think Trudeau handled himself very well, considering he’s dealing with a orange ?

Canada has been the preferred access point for criminals and terrorist for the past 4 years. I have a place right on the border and 8 months ago I caught a young East Indian who already had several felony in the states and had been shipped back to India in previous years. How the heck did that man get a student visa to come to Canada. There are 50,000 East Indian Students missing in Canada who simply used the visa to get into Canada and run the border. This is what we’re are dealing with. I live on the border and I’ve never seen this much traffic. Border guards are simply picking their targets and having to ignore others. So I ask u how do u think I feel about my property being used as an illegal highway bcz of your government incompetence. As someone who also works in native communities throughout Canada I’ll also Trudeau words fall like shit from ass. The drugs have ravaged native communities to the tune of 3/4 of the young ppl. Grandparents are raising the grandchildren and it’s all kept hush hush by the liberal media. They’ve done nothing to stop it bcz it normally boils down to minority groups who they brought in who are making it.

Trudeau needs to understand he is dealing with a bully & a liar, he mentioned a quote of Trump being a smart guy making a dumb decision, there is nothing smart about Trump, you can’t reason with dictators….

Mr. Trump we thank you for dealing with our budget and splitting ties with freeloaders. Canada cant defend themselves and we dont need their bacon or anything they have at all. We have enough coal to fuel the US for over 300 years. We been subsidizing them every way and that is how they can give free healthcare and education while Americans dont have that option. Trudeau is a weak leader that wants to talk tough like Zelensky. And Americans or veterans that dont support your president is not a patriot to your country but a freeloader too. Taxpayers gave Ukraine hundreds of billions of dollars under senile Biden the worst president in US history and Zelensky want us to give him more for his war to nowhere. And then Ukraine want to not repay us unlike how they got loans from the European Union. Let Russia take Ukraine because that war is not our problem, we did enough. Lets put America first and that why the country voted for Trump. And Trunp is keeping his promise. God Bless America and Trump!

Of course it's CNN. Trudeau, you do not represent Canadians. You have destroyed Canada and only now because of Trump you are dealing with the horrid fentanyl problem that is killing our communities. You have not fixed our health care system nor our political system. YOU NEED TO JUST GO, STOP YOUR EGO DRIVEN LAST GASP AT LEADERSHIP. You prorogued our own government, basically shut down debate and decision making in Canada while you parade yourself around the global world. NOW YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT CANADA FIRST, when a short two months ago you were pushing Canada for the past 9 years as a post national state. You are posturing and have no credibility in Canada or globally. YOU DID NOT WORK WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU CAME UP WITH NO PLAN BASED ON WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE U.S. YOU JUST WANT TO PREEN AND SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA AND SKIRT AROUND RESPECTFUL NEGOTIATIONS WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP BECAUSE YOU ARE MANIPULATING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. Just take that walk Trudeau and be gone, you have 3 more days and then we do not want to see you again.

I dont like Trudeau but this is the Golden Opputuniry for Trudeau to Bounce BACK as a STRONG leader and if manages to pull up CANADA and humble TRUMP then he will become a HERO but looking at the Trudeau Past Records dealing with BIG Countries, it seems TRUMP will swallow him without WATER. All the BEST CANADA and Canadians

Trudeau has been on his farewell tour while he still has access to the treasury rather than dealing with this.\nBut he has shown a tendency to run away from problems rather than tackling them so this is par for the course.\n\nHe is a lame duck, who will be replaced by an equally weak (and unelected !) 'leader' on March 9th, then whether or not the government falls depends on yet another weak leader, this time of one of the opposition parties.\n\nAs Canada and Mexico diversify their trade networks to make up for this, the US will be pushed into isolation. Here in Canada, the world is hungry for our energy and willing to pay full value, not the $14/bbl discount the US currently enjoys.\n\nHope it was worth it.

I am Canadian born citizen, unemployed, 2 and a 1/2 years. Because I didn't know that the Trudeau government in 2022 when I lost my job due to the pandemic was allowing them to import T.F.W's as executive assistance my level of experience into my industry. I couldn't figure out why I couldn't get an interview withe almost 20yrs of experience and I was trying every trick in the book but a week ago I learned that they brought in over 2 years 300,000 admins at all levels from E.A's to receptionist now. So imagine my horror and shock to learn that 5 days ago. But you walk in everywhere. And it's just Indians from every part of South Asia and I am all for immigration I'm a child of an immigrant, but immigration is a science When dealing with a country like Canada, where it's designed to be many cultures like a 20 bean soup. You're supposed to try and keep it at being a 20 bean soup and within 3 years it became like a 2 bean soup. It's a science where you're replacing your dead, and then you bump it up like 10% to grow the population slowly with GDP so that you don't have so many Canadians. Unemployed and temporary foreign workers that come are employed. So everybody's contributing but the way they did the open door everybody bum rush. And over run the country. Our economy is now 60% dependent on people who aren't residents. They're temporary which means when they leave our fake economy is actually only built on 40% to 30% of Canadians. That's an economy that will crash because it's never supposed to be weighted that way, Canadians are supposed to be 60% to 70% of the economy and foreign workers are to be the rest. So we're in trouble when they finally go home, but they need to put a moratorium on PR's, Work permits, LIMA's, T.F.W's and restrict all educational institutions on how many Students they can accept so private schools don't scam students by taking their money then telling them they don't have a seat for them to attend class that is just criminal and do so untill end of 2025 and then review status again for 2026. So Canadians can have a shot at getting work and then slowly introduce them back in as needed for proper slow population growth and not just a free-for-all ability to work anywhere in the whole country. Major cities and everything like that. So people like me can finally get back to work.

I would blame the Trudeau government,but I also hold those who are bad ambassadors at fault, they get blame on the same level, I cant believe the things im seeing happ My grandfather drove a tank through Italy for this Country and it deeply offends me to see so many immigrants being brought in. I agree with your opinion, and I can sympathize with those who are here for good reasons but Canadians are hurting because of this government, there are no longer jobs , the prices keep increasing while what few places that use to be jobs for Canadians have an indian working and I can't help but become upset when I see so much pain, and have seen so many people take their lives or fall into addiction. \n I've had the pleasure of knowing Indians from the past before immigration became an issue and I would still hold them in high regard , but I care about Canadians, and that might even represent some indian immigrants but not the new wave that have arrived. I would leave if I had somewhere else to go and I think if you are an Indian you should leave for your own safety. This Country is going to descend into some kind of hell soon, especially if war is brought to our soil, anything big right now would kick off alot of hatred, pain, sadness that Canadians coast to coast are dealing with

As a Canadian citizen (born and raised) those migrants from New York should move overseas (AKA our nextdoor overseas neighbour UK/EU). Canada is dealing with crisis right now (not only caused by not only both our Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau and our Canadian Premier Doug Ford but also the Russian President that started the war that screwed up Canadian gas prices). \n\nWhat Americans hear about Canada is a split 50/50. Yeah Canada has free health care. But when you reach 25+ you have to pay your own.. unless you have insurance. Also in the province where I live tax percentage here is DANG 13%. It's DANG expensive because Canadian dollar is not as strong as the big 4 (USD/UK Pounds/Europe Euros/Japan Yen). The only province that pays little-to-none taxes is the province of Alberta Canada.\n\nAll-in-all I advise migrants that live in US: DO NOT live in Canada because Canada is a sh*t country. And you'll be screwed by both the Trudeau and Doug Ford Government.

Born and raised Canadian from Toronto. \nIm adding my 2 cents simply because it needs to be stated. Canada is NOT a good country to live in. \nThe last 30+ years between the constant increases in taxation. The criminally high cost of housing, high cost of commodities, i.e. food, clothing, fuel, utilities, and since we are now suffering from the ineptitude of Justin trudeau, more and more canadians are looking to leave the country, myself included, for the sake of our financial wellbeing, our peace of mind, and reprieve from the seemingly endless cycle of hurry up and wait for healthcare needs, personal matters, and dealing with multi tiered, multi layered government regulations for nearly everything. I personally have contacted consulates general of 12 different nations from the EU to the pan Asian region as well as the US, and will not be living in Canada by summers end 2022. Besides, if Canada was to do a complete 180 on its economic and political directions it will take a generation or more to correct what has been systematically dismantled over the course of the last 30 to 40 years.\n\nTo a university educated, well to do successful entrepreneur and skilled multi trades professional, such as myself, its NOT worth waiting for...
