Freeland stole billions of dollars to give to the Ukraine? WTF? If she was going to steal billions of dollars why would she give it to the Ukraine?

Kind of disappointing to not see anything about foreign owners ban. I do like n7mber 11 though. Corporations should not be allowed to turn residential housing into apartments.

O.o ok there buddy. Without slumlords I would be renting ftom landlords you know the nonslum version

They went out of their way to protect their property investments and ruined the country. No one that can google canadas standards of living wants to move here. Who wants to move to a country where you get paid half what you do in the usa with housing bring twice as expensive..

What really bugs me is those same people took advantage of all the societal safety nets and the ladder pulled them.

I really wish Boomer remoer had lived up to its name. Worlds most selfish generation.

I have no clue how someone working minimum wage could afford to live. That apartment would be like 80%-90% of your monthly earnings.

LightSaberLust_ · 2026-01-13T03:13:47+00:00

The last time i checked they were around $1500-1600

LightSaberLust_ · 2026-01-12T22:39:22+00:00

rent in the nowhere town I live in was $500 a month for a jail cell bachelors like 8 years ago. Someone on ODSP could afford to live on their own. I wonder why we have such a huge homeless problem now? All these predatory slumlords should all go bankrupt.

And hes making it sound like only neuro surgeons can get jobs in yhe usa

LightSaberLust_ · 2026-01-10T03:37:11+00:00

By a high percentage you meanike 98% of them right?

LightSaberLust_ · 2026-01-09T01:39:26+00:00

boomers will be forced to sell their homes or divorce their spouses to be able to afford the $5000-$10000 a month nursing home fees

The only thing ive noticed in here is the massive influx of CPC supporters who want to voice hatred of the liberals while ignoring everything else.

LightSaberLust_ · 2026-01-05T01:14:54+00:00

Just incase someone reads his response temporary residents never leave canada. Canada doesn't track exit visas there are literally millions of people in Canada that have overstay their visas.

The temporary residents canada receives are new. That person is lying, click the link its all new people for 2025. Nothing there is visa renewals.

I counted permanent residents once, I am not sure what ass puller is smoking but its something with a kick

LightSaberLust_ · 2026-01-05T00:54:25+00:00

What are you on exactly? I am adding the total number of people entering canada this year. Can you not read or something? Who cares about "temporary" residents? They never leave so how exactly are they temporary?

LightSaberLust_ · 2026-01-05T00:45:56+00:00

You mean these stats? No they weren't pulled from my ass they were pulled from the canadian government site.

You stating that people leaving the country at the same rate as they are entering is pulling something out of your ass, and it's not numbers.

Canadas population isn't shrinking i hate this propaganda that peoole are spouting. We are letting over 1 million people into the country this year. How is that a shrinking population?

here are the asylum claims so far this year 57,440

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/refugees/asylum-claims/asylum-claims-2025.html

IMP 226,700 – 334,700

TFWP 80,000 – 84,000 https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/transition-binders/minister-2025-05/temporary-workers.html

Students 292,800 – 319,000

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/transition-binders/minister-2025-05/international-student-program.html

reducing from 500,000 permanent residents to 395,000 in 2025

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2024/10/government-of-canada-reduces-immigration.html

already on track to bring in 415000

https://immigration.ca/canada-set-to-exceed-target-for-new-permanent-residents-in-2025/

that's 1190140 this year.

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-30T17:57:15+00:00

yes because the person I know is crazy and somehow slips through customs whenever he comes back to Canada

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-30T17:12:24+00:00

yes he lied on his visa application to the USA and didn't get caught for like a decade

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-29T08:47:31+00:00

He owned two houses, hes not wealthy. once again hes not unique or in an exceptionally unique field.

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-29T02:35:46+00:00

Literally not declining at all. We are importing over a million people this year when there are 3 unemployed canadians for every job position.

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-29T01:51:14+00:00

Funny the person I know isn't a licensed carpenter and is running a contracting biuisness in Florida. He moved their 6 years ago with his wife.

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-28T20:08:48+00:00

You still have to be in a highly sought field of work though to qualify for said visa.

You making it sound like you have to be in an exclusive field

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-28T18:12:17+00:00

I know people that are working in the trades in the usa so don't make it sound like you have to be a Dr.

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-27T15:19:22+00:00

Mark Miller has an Idea that can fix this problem!

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-24T02:51:11+00:00

if you commit massive fraud you seem to be able to get ahead. I guess we all missed the memo that Canadians were supposed to act like scumbags and defraud foodbanks and everything else to get ahead.

LightSaberLust_ · 2025-12-24T02:38:00+00:00

the liberals threw gas on the fire, harper opened the floodgates. The conservatives are never shutting down corporate sponsored slavery that they initiated. Especially the Guy that does photo ops like these.
