Comments by "bighand69" (@bighands69) on "Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau criticizing Trump after G-7 summit" video.

  1. What about Canada having tariffs on US goods. If the US were to put tariffs on Canadian goods to the same level that could mean millions of car produced in Canada could be at threat. It is not fair that Canada and the EU puts tariffs on US cars but the US then puts no tariffs on their cars. There is a reason why so few US cars are actually on the road in the EU.

  2. +Carla Rae It was Minister Trudeau who stabbed Trump in the back it was him who actually started the attacks. There was an agreement at G7 that none of the countries would come out and attack one other afterwards and if there was any concerns they were to be voiced through diplomatic channels. Well it looks like Trudeau did not get the message.

  3. +Olivia Sullivan What you missed because the media did not tell you was that the G7 leaders agreed to take all issues down the diplomatic route and not to attack one other or make inflammatory remarks. Trump has always stood by his tariff policy (I can debate that if you desire) and it was Trudeau who decided to attack Trump as he was flying to Singapore. I suspect that Trudeau thought that since Trump was boarding an air flight that he would not know it happened. Well the problem was that Air Force One has a complete communications system so it meant that Trump found out and was able to respond his dissatisfaction with the back stabbing by Trudeau. I hope that fills you in on what you have missed. (Canada cannot expect to put Tariffs on US goods and then cry when America says they will match those Tariffs).

  4. What the fact that 50% of Canadian exports go to the US and if Canada does not start negotiations with the Trump administration it will find out that it could lost up to 80% of its jobs through such a trade war. The Canadian PM has a tough call to make in the next few weeks and if he does not go down the right route Canada could suffer for years ahead. Remember millions of US cars are produced in Canada every year and that is many many jobs at risk.

  5. Over 50% of Canada's exports go to the US. Canada has no levager in any of this. If Canada was stupid enough to raise more tariffs it is about to find out that most of its jobs could disappear in a few short months.

  6. 50% of Canadian goods are exported to the US. China does not allow foreign made cars to be imported while the US allows Canadian cars to be imported. How is dealing with China going to make up for that massive loss of auto exports to the Canadian economy. Go on tell us.

  7. 70% of Canadian jobs rely on exports to the US. I think you are about to find out that Trump already knows this and will turn the economic screw on Canada.

  8. +Gabby Duga You do know that it was Trudeau who first attacked Trump even though all the leaders of the G7 made an agreement not to attack one other and to take any issues down the diplomatic route. Trudeau waited until Trump got on the aircraft knowing Trump could not to defend himself as he was doing so. Well that is what Trudeau thought anyway and did not realize that Air Force One has a complete communications system that enables Trump to know what is going on and enables him to respond. So if you are saying Trump is a toddler what the hell does that make Trudeau.

  9. I assume you are talking about Trudeau who decided to break the agreement that was put in place.

  10. All of the G7 countries have a massive reliance on exports to the US. I think you are going to find out very very soon who is weak and insecure. Trump has another 2 full years in office and he is going nowhere as the GOP is not going to impeach Trump even if he was sleeping with Putin.

  11. Well if Canada did not have tariffs on US goods there simply would be now falling out. When the hell did Canada think it was OK to put taxes on US goods. The Canadian car industry could be about to get a hammering on tariffs if they are not careful.

  12. Over 50% of Canadian exports go to the US. What does he mean by not pushed around. He has no options. He either deals with Trump or tariffs will massively impact on Canadian exports.

  13. It was Trudeau who started it back attacking Trump.
