    1. this stupied hate towrds usa has to stop its been festering for 200 years.
      and it hurts everyone.
      we should have been unifided long ago. but clearly even now theres still ignorent snobs.

      thank you tump for helping canadians to have a 150$ deminus even if its not much still better then the stupied 20$

    2. @EarthToday canada is extrealy expensive, fule, and other stuff. too . canada rips everyone off at the end of the day

    3. @Chaitan Reddy Tim Hortons sucks. Their regular coffee tastes like dishwater . If you buy dark roast, it tastes burnt. Haven’t been there in over a year.

    4. @Chez Helene The reason for this is because McDonalds went to TH and asked for an access deal to the coffee beans that TH had access to. TH refused, so McDonalds went out and bought out the contract from under TH, and cut TH’s access to those coffee beans. TH coffee now tastes like crap, but if you go to McDonalds for a coffee, it tastes like TH used to.

  1. I’ve always been confused: there’s nothing FREE about this Free trade deal. Doesn’t make sense.

    1. We should send the Huawei executive back too. Arrest her for Trump, the get stabbed in the back by him.

    2. @John S no we make plans to make most things here money gets injected right back into the Canadian economy. It’s a win win. More Jobs more money staying within our economy. We can do this for most products. We have relied way to much on other countries.

    3. Same reason why we used to have employees pump gas at stations (2 cents cheaper across the street to pump your own gas) or most recently grocerie store check out clerks or self check out. If we allow those things to continue to happen we will all be out of work. Don’t be afraid to stand in line and save that persons job.

  2. We will be made in Canada goods and win this battle I believe we can win who else believes we can win go CANADA and go CANADIANS

    1. @Prairiedoggen How much government money have you received? If you have such a pissy attitude why don’t you move! I hear the states has room now! It could be worse right? Im not a liberal but I’m not homeless and starving!!! Have you sat in line at a food bank for 7 hours? What about you? And are you doing ANYTHING TO HELP???

    1. 🤣 The Unfair Trade Practices Have Been Coming From Canadian Govt For Ages. If There Is A Shaky Wall, It’s On Canada’s Side. Aren’t You Supposed To Be “Allies?” Allies Don’t CHEAT!

  3. Simple solution just increase the production of aluminum Auto parts in Canadian factories. Then export them to the United States, you’ll get around the tariffs and create Canadian jobs

    1. Do some research! Canada has less than 25% of the factory facilities it had in the 1980’s. In the GTA alone, in the 1980’s, 6,000 factory and manufacturing facilities of various sizes, JUST in the GTA, shut down completely!

    1. I check the labels when I shop for groceries. If there are two products, one Canadian and one American, I’ll buy Canadian.

    1. Yeah. Vlad is behind Fake45″s claim that there will be a vaccine by Nov 3. It might kill you or make you grow an extra leg or arm but whatev!!

  4. Stop sending anything to USA everything needs to stop period. Our food our gas our electricity everything should be holted see how they feel then

  5. I am certain he is quaking in his boots! This super flyweight Liberal government continues to embarrass Canadians!
    What a bunch of corrupt imbeciles! 😎🤙

  6. Maybe, Trudop, should have attended the last trade meeting that he was invited too. But didn’t, I guess he was to busy, washing his Bart Simpson socks, and his panties, that day.
