So what it's costing taxpayers...what do you think gov't support of border hopping migrants, immigrants, and south asian business owners abusing the temp foreign worker program and milking it is doing...it's costing taxpayers a lot more than these deportations. Let's ramp up the deportations, let's ramp up stripping citizenship from new canadians convicted of federal crimes....

Trump has placed himself in a corner. He's completely incompetent. Because he is a bully and thinks people will roll over, he is going to look weak when he has to roll them back. When Canada cuts off the water, car parts, etc. and people start losing jobs such as car manufacturing, there will be a price to pay. It won't be an end to MAGA, but if he lets this go on for too long, he will never come back from it.
Comment analyzes Trump's tariff policy through economic consequences (job losses in car manufacturing, supply chain impacts).

We love Canada. Tariffs fail. Especially tariffs on friends. We are $36 TRILLION in debt. We need to block trade, but not with friends.

I am sorry for immigrants but we can no longer fund these programs and born Quebec citizens can no longer afford to lose their jobs to immigrants and affordable housing. Wishing them all the best.
