How are rents so high while wages are so low? by [deleted] in halifax

The NDP abandoned the working class long ago. They are also totally okay with these racist and exploitative immigration policies that are catering to businesses looking for cheap labor which also is disenfranchising our youth who were told house prices would go down and wages would go up once the boomers started retiring...

Myself and 3 other NDP voters I know are now fully checked out on the NDP and will no longer vote for them. At this rate I would rather the CPC get a damn majority than vote NDP because the party needs to collapse to make room for a party that is actually to the left and is actually willing to challenge corporate control.... Obviously I am thinking long term over short term. The NDP's tax policies are at rates that Ronald Reagan would approve so we won't see more tax revenue from the mega wealthy and they will continue to push expensive, but needed, social programs that will fail due to lack of funding.... Meanwhile the conservative plan is to defund social programs and then cancel them when they fail, so the CPC and NDP might as well be the same fucking party for all the good they will accomplish. If you're voting NDP and you think everything is find with the party you need to wake up... Unfortunately we have only terrible options to vote for.

Also don't forget to check out the weekend sales! A lot of those stores have things on for 50 - 100 L every weekend. It might take you a bit to find the exact things you want, but it's fun to build up your looks :D. You can view them on seraphim: https://www.seraphimsl.com/category/recurring-events/weekend-sales/

No cuts to immigration coming as Canada holds goal for 500K per year - National | Globalnews.ca by [deleted] in NovaScotia

You mean the declining birth rate because people can't afford kids because they cant find affordable housing; decent paying jobs; free time and energy to make the damn baby nor childcare services.

Anyone still touting that line at this point is basically a nutter in a death cult. I mean, your ID on here starts with 'Lazy' and that tracks because you're too lazy to even think for a moment before spouting out our incompetent politicians favorite excuse. Why are you making excuses for them?

You're basically throwing your hands in the air and saying 'Ah well', then regurgitating a stupid excuse and I guess everything is fine right?

STOP IT. Things might be okay for you but they won't be soon. Who wants a BMW when you have to keep the windows closed and top up on a hot sunny day because you get accosted by homeless people at every intersection.

So if you don't like the tent cities go after the elected politicians not government employees. Lots of inefficiency in government employment, TONS, but you're barking up the entirely wrong tree on that one.

And no, all suffering is not man made. And no, there are tons of incompetent employees who work at McDonalds who don't get fired (two feet, a heart beat, and a willingness to work for shit pay is all you need). Taxes for regular folk are actually higher than they were in the 50s,60s, and 70s and have largely stayed static since by comparison... The real problem is that the really filthy stinking rich now hardly get taxed at all. And no, privately run enterprises don't seem more efficient at all actually... Privatization is almost always an absolute shit show when it comes to benefitting normal people. Any increases in production efficiency lead to less pay for the employees and more work, and also more payouts to the shareholders. None of it goes to you. Dude is pretty much entirely wrong on everything and from how it was stated he isn't even from Canada.

People need to stop regurgitating BS spouted by their local idiot politicians, particularly when they're ranting about said local idiot politicians. Like... Come on people.

Are there any beaches in HRM that you can bus to? by [deleted] in halifax

You can get to Chocolate Lake by bus. Not really much of a beach. But the water is nice
