OTTAWA -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he has told the United States that it would be a "mistake" for them to position troops near the Canadian border.
"We have expressed to the United States that it would be a mistake to position troops near the Canadian border, and we certainly hope that they’re not going to go through with that," said Trudeau. He said the talks surrounding "many issues" relating to the Canada-U.S. border are ongoing, and added that he will share more information when he has it.
government constantly does opposite of what we feel is the the best way to deal with a situation
One thing that the Republicans, & Republican-lite don't realize is that Canada is a superpower like them. Dumb.
Well, its time to do what needs to be done, if you get my drift. Enough is enough. Thank you, Clinton, for putting Trump in power again. You are no friend to Canada. We need to defend ourselves. The Amaracaien people love us, but The Amaracien power doesn't care. They will. Blah.
Trudeau should better focus on protecting his own people rather than commenting what US shouldn't do. Even upto y'day there was a flight almost every 7 min, people are entering without being screened., he should rather focus on placing travel restrictions.
Nope best idea I've heard yet
ShowMeYourAnkles
I wish the American Army would walk on up here and take over Canada. End this shit show.
That's because he wants his favorite illegals back, the murderers, the terrorists, the rapists, the drug lords, the thieves and the known crooks.
Not a mistake if these troops keep Americans out of Canada.
What a bunch of Bull— there is nothing wrong with their actions and nothing aggressive is being pointed our way. Not to mention we are combat ineffective and points to our very serious sovereignty issues!
It's not for you to say!
The problem there's not much he can do about it.
I read the US is doing this to net illegals trying to enter Canada. Once collected the US deports them. I bet this was provoked by Trudeau and the RCMP baggage handlers inaction at Roxham rd. Kudos to Mr Trump.
We burnt down their White House once and we can do it again
Really Trudeau What are you going to do? Lecture Trump and wag your finger like how you treat Canadians
Bring them protect both countries.
New York, Detroit, Chicago, Seattle. Imagine you are the President worried about looting, riots, panic, whatever in these big virus hit cities and wanted to pre position the US military to be ready - but don’t want to freak out Americans. Hey...these are all near the border...
What's the mistake?
Dont kid yourself its not to keep us out, its to keep americans in
Not when you are the one they want to capture for human trafficking and other crimes against humanity
Such a Good Job President Trump has done triggering the flaky Left. I would buy tickets to watch you trying to stop US troops! 😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝
You really think the US or any other country including Canada gives a shit what Trudeau thinks? Not at all. He’s a clown 🤡 and nothing more.
LOL, sweatin' commie basturd?
Not one person in this thread knows the real reason, Trump has sent the USA Military to the Canadian border and to the Mexican border. Get the facts or keep quiet!
Trudeau himself is a mistake. Trudeau is the most disrespected leader in the entire world. Nobody takes anything he says seriously.
Canadians don't trust what this guy thinks.
They need troops on border to keep their citizens in...let them.
so proud for JustinTrudeau to be our leader. Well done!
No Canadian I know would ever want to cross into the US, what the hell for? Let Trump pay to secure it & keep Americans out!
As long as those troops don’t block Roxham Road right Justin (aka Gerry) ?! Wouldn’t want to jeopardize those future Lib votes
Why? What does that change?
And if Russia did this to anyone, everyone would loose their shit.
US troops at the borders? Come on! Are you kidding me? For what! Your stats are outrages compared to Canada's. Don’t worry we don’t want to go there right now. Why would we want to leave a country with the best healthcare in the world!
Maybe he can build the same walll he did with Mexico. Keep all us Canadians out. Uhm...what’s that...there is no wall But Mexico paid for it.
I think he shaft his pants
And we care why? Let them stand there. Just as long as they are 6ft away from Canada, you know social distances and all.
Listen to this PM. Somebody? Anybody?...nobody?
course he did, their troops might actually keep the illegals away and trudope can't control who's stopped.
You know whats a mistake JustinTrudeau...alerts going off all efn night about self quarantine for travellers! Some of us still have work or young children that need sleep!
Lol
Well! That’s a speck of dust taking on a boulder!
How is enforcing the law a mistake? TrudeauLogic
After everything realDonaldTrump has done to make you look like a whelp, you choose to draw your line here , you are even more incompetent to run this country then I thought .
Anyone hear of any canadians saying hey this free health care is so unfair I want to cross the border and pay 20-30-40 or more thousand instead? I never have, but I don’t know maybe?
Okay, but what would he do about it
Fake news. And last I checked. U.S can do whatever it wants on U.S soil. As like any other country on this planet. Unfortunately we have a P.M that doesn’t even protect its own country .
What does he think is going to happen They invade!!! Pffft! Trudeau should be putting troops on our border where the Americans are not!! WORK TOGETHER!
And Trump shrugged.
As long as it keeps Americans out.
'Mistake' I bet the World's sole SUPERPOWER is terrified of Zero influence and Pathetically Powerless Canadistan!!!!
CANADIAN ARMY AT THE BORDER ?
Who in the hell does he think he is telling the POTUS what he shouldn't do? He should worry about his own screwed up country.
A waste of resources. A waste of an individual's time.
Sure: I’m not going there any time soon. We’ve got public health care sooooo... you want in here anyway.
Might stop some of the illegal crossing, or I mean here come on in crossings
Who cares let them put troops on the border
Are illegal border crossers going back to the USA via RoxhamRoad such that Trump stationed the army to block them?
The troops are more like to keep the (rich) ppl fleeing from US to Canada.
Look out realDonaldTrump, don’t make JustinTrudeau mad!
As long as they stay on their own side of the border it's fine. Step into our territory without invitation is looking for trouble.
Trudeau also: - offered glowing praises of ruthless, socialist, Cuban dictator, Fidel Castro - said ISIS fighters can be 'an extraordinary powerful voice' in Canada - offered Omar Khadr an apology Let that sink in!
Or what.
This morning Trudeau did a poll asking: Are you in favor of Donald Trump putting the US army 30 kms from the US-Canada border? 86% said yes
It takes a mistake To recognize a mistake
Why do we care? I’ve got to be honest here. The US are morons if they waste time and money putting soldiers at the Canadian border. But they can do whatever they want on their land. America put an idiot in charge. Why do we take it personally?
There will be people who will be killed if they militarize the northern border
Was he wearing his big boy pants tho?
Bring it on, keep the Americans from crossing the boarder...
Trudeau tells U.S. it would be a 'mistake' to put troops at Canadian border = Trump: He said that? Really? Alrighty then, tell my 'diverse' aide to get me a phone so I can call some of my generals, ASAP! We'll see who's making a mistake! 🤬
Well he needs more illegal aliens to keep a voting block
Please stop 😂
Tell them to keep their own in!
the ' MISTAKE ' is having him as PM
You always find the best photos of that douche
John Candy already did this movie
Who in their right mind would want to cross
What is Trudeau talking about? Seems he’s the only one who is. Trump didn’t know anything about it. Distraction is all this is.
It is still sovereign US soil they can do with their military what they wish why don’t you get that mindyourbusiness
Why would it be a mistake and what would he do about it.
Heh, I'm sure he told him.
I welcome them on this side of the border. Enough of this nonsense.
USA recalls 1 million military reserves
Lol ..... yeah ok
It is already done.
Many other countries would view it as an act of aggression. But the US thinks it can just throw its weight around without consequence. This could have serious repercussions on the relationship between Canada and the US, not that Trump cares at all.
Why is this non story still running?
The troops are already there...
If we had a man at the helm....
Anyone ever listen to Ed Calderon on Joe Rogan podcast? If you listen to it you will realize why U.S might do this.
Why is the CTV covering up Trudeau’s house arrest?
Totally political. He knows it makes him look incompetent and slow to react to COVID19
Let them put troops at the border. We can claim they are to keep their own citizens from entering our practically super low virus numbers from skyrocketing and for free :) leaving our troops to be where they need to be :) Ty realDonaldTrump 4 keeping usa away from us :D
The mistake, was us, electing him. TrudeauNotFitForOffice
so .... let them invade all ready. No more Trudeau, No more exchange rates, no more paying deranged prices on things like gas to pop to internet. And no more border. Justin is trying to do a Diversion tactic, something to grab your attention, as he does something else.
Is the PM worried about what is actually going on at the boarder that Canadians should be aware of. This got nothing to do with who has a bigger mouth.
None of his business what the Department of Homeland Security does inside their own country. This is still not a 'global world' run by the UN like groper Justin would like to see. What was he planning to do anyway, go and complain to the NBC again? He is nobody to the USA, zip.
Lol
locmac06 As long as they are there to stop Americans from coming into Canada I’m ok with it!
I love how this pussy (cat) PM thinks the Lion in the White House is listening to him.
Little boy puts his man pants on?
TrudeauMustGo is in no place to tell trump anything
Canadian's wouldnt mind some back up against tyrancy and corruption.
I'm sure trump's shaking in his shoes🤪
Great idea Mr. Trump, lets maintain a zero cross policy!! I don’t want to see numbers like the states have
Mistake? It is morelike an inconvenience for Trudeau who is committed to the UNCHR refugee cause and 'open border' driven by Geroge Soros.
WorstPMEver
Like you have a say in the matter
Trudeau also said this
Please Trudeau, how is it a mistake and what can or would you do about it ?
Trump is not guarding the Canadian border to help Canada. He is watching for illegal transport of goods coming from Canada. Trump is not going to stop people going into Canada, just those coming into the USA.
Go for it Trudeau is a wimp
Take him in FULL FORCE!!!
The Americans can do what ever they want. Useless Trudeau can't do a thing about it.
Why does it matter if they have troops patrolling their border ? What am I missing here ?
I honestly can’t see Trudeau arguing with trump in anyway? Troops can protect our border to ensure (sick) refuges from US cross over into Canada?
Lol, is that a threat? What is he going to do if Trump refuses, show him his socks?
That’s great. Keep the Americans out of Canada 😀
Why?
Funny, I can’t think of a single way the US military could be better used (sarcasm). I think it’s safe that Canada won’t use covid-19 as an excuse to redo the battle of 1812.
WHY?is U.S.A. Putting troop'snat the Boarder?
And rightly so.
Because the US would actually stop the flow of illegal immigrants. The Liberals don’t want that to happen.
This is laughable to me....I've heard that Canadians are RACING to the border to get back INTO Canada! I hope you all have troops blocking the border to keep Americans OUT!
and we know Trudeau is an authority on 'mistakes'.
Pretty sure those troops are going to catch coronavirus. StayAtHomeAndStaySafe
Who cares.
People from Canada are still trying to go over the border...I dont blame the US wanting to save their country. I wish we would do the same.
Why? The troops might stop the flow of all illegal immigrants walking over our borders.
We need to keep the rif raf away from Canada. We have enough already.
Lol or what tough guy?
I'm ok with it to keep illegals out.
By what is written here it implies that US troops will be in Canada at the boards. If that is true then it’s a huge mistake. Now If its US troops on US soil then Canada has no say in it as it is Another country’s Land.
Are...you...fooking...serious ?
little potato didn’t tell US anything. US is ruining Trudeau’s plan to destroy Canada. Thank you mr Trump.
Not in a “you’ll be sorry” kind of mistake, but purely in a “what are you, stupid?” kind of mistake way.
So what, does it really matter, what's the big deal, who cares if they have troops at border?
This is not something to worry about now.
What’s Trudeau gonna do to Uncle Sam - make threatening gestures with a hockey stick!
And what’s he going to do about it, just more Castro b—!
Or what
It has nothing to do with Trudeau. Why is Mr. Fancy Socks getting so worked up?
Trudeau’s crazy mom said he was a mistake with Castro! TrudeauMistake
Why?
Shut up Trudeau, NO ONE cares about what you have to say
I don’t get it, so what if the US deploy troops on their side of the boarder ?
As long as they are there to keep the Americans where they belong...
If the troops go on the railroads near the border, they will stay there forever.
Trump wants to do this because he knows Trudeau is a joke, and he knows our border security is a joke. Don't blame him.
Why
Uhm, that was resolved yesterday.
That’s a nice way of putting it.
Nobody cares what Justin says. It's not his call to make anyway.
Oooh, I bet Trump is shaking in his boots.... TrudeauMustGo
Nice choice of words lol, the village IDIOT has spoken and everyone is laughing 😂
Thank you JustinTrudeau for being a leader in a time of need 🙏
my favorite thing about this are the alt-right trolls doing mental gymnastics to be okay with this. Trudeau didn't do enough they say but thier dear Leader Trump says everyone should just go back to work. It's truly amazing
It would be a mistake that you took illegal migrants from my he border Man.
Trudeau is a cancer on our once great, now divided country.
Thats the great thing about having a properly funded military: you can simply ignore what the weaker ones want. Trudeau sounds like a young child complaining.
He would rather have an OPEN DOOR policy..like Father like son ~Apple : Tree
Idiot on drugs. The most powerful nation on the world. And they know he's stupid.
Lol. What's Trudeau going to do about it? Send the Canadian military to stop him? Lol. Half the equipment will breakdown before they get there.
Was it a mistake for the UN's planes landing? Was it a mistake not to tell Canadians? Was it a mistake to try for a power grab when we are at our weakest? Oh, so many mistakes he made, the list is endless!
Not at all, bring them on!
Really? A mistake.....how so?
Thank god about time Traitor trudeau eats some justice TrudeauMustGo trudeaumustGo
Canadians support Trumps military. WWG1WGA!
🤣🤣🤣
And 23 is trying to say what now to POTUS? Quit shilling for the corrupt govt of Canada.
They don't want the world to know the liberals failure of immigration
Is it a mistake? Why would they be sending troops How are you going to cover this CTV?
Hahaha
Trudeau has no honour!!
Why?
Trudeau is going kick USA in the shins They should be very worried 😂 His military who he refused to help will be right behind him while he throws the first kick (ankle bracelet attached)
Why, WTF is Canada going to do? Trudeau is a idiot!!😡🇨🇦
This from a PM who has continually stabb the President in the back internationally, good luck with that!
Im not sure why anybody would want to go to the states right now? Unless it’s to stop them from coming here
CTVStephanie It isn’t to keep Canadians out, it’s to keep Americans in when things get bad. 100k cases and counting.
Trudeau told them .... lol
Only illegal border crossers should be at the border according to PMJT. It is their country. PMJT can throw a parkas and virtue signal all he wants it is their country.
It's a matter of controlling sites like Roxham road which wasn't closed right away. It's not about Trudeau or Trump it's about us!!
Did he say why Lol. Doubtful.
TrudeauNotFitForOffice
Poor trumpy, Trudeau owned him in the new NAFTA deal, now he crying foul to save face with American steel workers
And they laughed😂😂😂
How so?
To fucken bad.
It’s smart. Our RCMP help illegals through and carry their bags. We’ve become a security breach and liability to the states.
Lol. We have 3 submarines & an attack canoe & McDinksocks is telling the most powerful military on the planet what to do. Lmao!!😂
Let the Americans dispatch their troops to our border, they will ensure that no sick Americans cross the border into Canada?
What about enforcing the border?
The only mistake made was the Eastern Canadians voting to keep him
Proud of my Prime Minister.
Uhh definitely not a mistake and I totally impress it, why cause cause our own GOVERNMENT IS A JOKE !
What’s he gonna do about it? This?
The GoItSlow LeaderlessLiberals really are sub par leaders. Right from the start, lies, falsehoods, power grabbing, ethics violations and the economic disaster they've created will kill Canada.
And our RCMP at the border moonlight as baggage handlers.
What the heck would they do there? Play parcheesi?
Lmao. so Trudope declares that this would be bad fr relations between the 2 Countries. How can this be worse than the occasions that this PM insulted the leader of the free world directly like trudeau did? cannot be serious! Those troops will be unbiased unlike Trudeaus puppets
The Liberal Party is a parody.
Our border is not secure, what would you have Trump do?
And they laughed? They certainly should have, Trudeau is a joke
Is Trump concerned Canadians will flock enmass across the border to take advantage or the USA's amazing health care plans?
Who really cares about this now? So what, it makes the border safer, is that a bad thing?
Who is he to tell the US what to do? He is talking tough while hiding behind his wife’s skirt! He is staying in isolation because he is using it for free media coverage.......the liberals are turning this Pandemic into an election platform, shameless!
i’ve been crossing the line all this week and yes it would be an absolute mistake - the borders are literally deserted!!!! lol 🤦🏻♂️
I'm sure the US are shaking in their boots. If you didn't pick up on it, I was being sarcastic.
He is a nut but maybe we should let them him just to keep americans out of Canada as they are hot bed for virus
Let them...may be when they are too bored waiting for crossings into US, they can report to Trudeau the illegal crossings into Canada....
Why isn’t the airlines not washing down the planes after returning home picking up Canadians from other country’s ? It’s going to dangerous areas just to bring back Canadians . The planes should wash down .
And we have excellent snipers
As usual Trump is trying to distract from the shit show he created.
Noooo JustinTrudeau. Please let them. Especially at the Rainbow bridge as New York has been hit hard. We don't need them coming here. They need to control their own.
It is a mistake that you care what Trump said...
If anything Canada should put troops on borders for all people trying escape US cause can't get care. Canada in danger being over run I'm thinking.
The USA nos Trudeau is not doing anything to stop people. So someone has to get there hands dirty . Trudeau s a Canadian crown
What would the troops be there for- to stop Americans from trying to get to Canada for safety? Considering that the USA has now become the epicentre of the Covid-19 pandemic in the entire world (according to the World Health Organization), you couldn’t blame them!
Who cares, it's their business. Do not let hurt feelings make policy
LOL, gettin' 'nervous' communist?
Give it up... they don’t want the people you let in coming back! Lol
Like who in the hell wantstomove to the US? Lol sorry but not sorry... we should be gurding Canada borders instead. We have the universal heathCare. American to get it.
JT why do you always get sucked in to reply to everything he says? Furthermore, if whatever he dreams up protects Canadians all the better.
Why don’t want to stop you voters from coming in
Prime Minister Trudeau is speaking in a politely controlled manner and keeping his real thoughts about our relationship with the U.S. to himself for now at least. I'd love to know what he really thinks. IAMCANADIAN
“It would be a mistake” Should that be considered a threat to the US coming from Trudeau after Takeover Tuesday told us what his real plans are/ were for Canada? Canada is making to many friends with Rogue countries that Canadians should be more heads up with what is happening
I’m sure America will change course knowing this.
Zero influence and Pathetically Powerless Canada has no say whatsoever where the World's sole SUPERPOWER puts it's Troops!!
The United States sees Canada as a threat because of incompetent corrupt narcissistic child Trudeau
It’s sad CDN media has been suckered by Liberals. What is the CDN risk of US troops on border? Zero. Media is focused on this fake news story. When will sufficient resources / supplies be issued to medical personnel. How many are infected but not tested due to prioritizing?
That is right up there with his obsession with a UN Security Council seat. Who gives a rat’s ass?
Trudeau himself is a big mistake. He should care and protect his own people than anything else.
As a Canadian, who really cares? Trudeau should be more focussed on getting PPE back from China.
Oooh I'm sure the US is trembling. Maybe hurrling a volley of poutine will scare them
Canadians do not want to go to the United States under this complete moron's leadership, what a fucktard!!!!!!!! Yes please take me away from a country that has a leader who is managing this virus outbreak beautifully so I can die under your evil reign!!! My vent for the day!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡
Trudeau is the mistake
what country takes this idiot serious, he cant even look after his own country, still in hiding,he’s like a bird in cuckoo clock, he pops out chirps and goes back in to hiding till the next time he needs to come out.
None of his business what the U.S. Homeland Security Agency does inside their own country. This is still not a 'global world' run by the UN like groper Justin would like to see. What was he planning to do anyway, go and complain to the NBC? You are nobody for the USA, zip.
It's a great idea! Protecting our boarders from migrant criminals is called being a good leader!! Jt could learn a few things from Mr.Trump, eh! 😉🇨🇦🇺🇲 realDonaldTrump JustinTrudeau
What business is it of Canada’s?
It might stop the flow of illegal immigrants walking over our border. Justin don't want that.
Oh boy, I bet the US is rethinking their position on that one because when Comrade Justin gives you an order you better listen!
Trudeau is the mistake.
I'm sure he's scared Trudeau.
Let Trump go ahead and send his troops. Keep the Americans from rushing our boarder when their private health care system fails dramatically!
Trump is certifiable. It's obsurd he thinks he needs them at the Canadian border. Canada has been the US's greatest ally and friend. It's not only a mistake, its a waste of resources too and a good way to spread the disease around more with the increased density of people. dumb
I think we should be supporting having troops at the boarder to prevent the influx of people coming from the south.
Why can’t he be this strong with China ?
U.S. troops get in the way of globalist plans with refugee plantation voters.
Hahahahaha
oh that would scare Trump I'm sure
What business is it of ours if they want to place their soldiers on their side of the border? Trudeau and his MSM need to just worry about Canada.
Trudeau will prove to be our biggest 'mistake '
Trudeau is wrong on almost everything. His calling this a 'mistake' makes it a little comforting to have the US troops at our border.
Your the mistake .
Oh I am sure Americans are shaking in their boots 🤣🤣🤣🤣a mistake ? So what you going to do about it PM JT 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ooohhh...Trump must be scared.
Oh such harsh language.
All they want to do is catch the 'irregular crossers' we're finally turning away. So let them! That is an American problem. NoCanadian is trying to 'escape' .... that's insanity.
It’s a smoke screen pure and simple. Let’s focus on issues in Canada 🇨🇦 frontline is the hospital 🏥 staff running out of PPE lack of ventilators. cdnpoli
Who cares what Trudeau thinks is a mistake? I’m nearly ready to invite them in - we are so in need of leadership here.
What does it matter where the USA puts their own troops inside their country?
Nice try little 🥔.
Perhaps he plans on annexing Alberta
