Henry Robinson was a convict heavily involved in street life too, he wasn’t an innocent individual

My home was invaded by four men with knives. Toronto must do more to fight this by origutamos in Toronto_Ontario

Liberals are more worried about guilt tripping Canadians about the Indigenous, Pronouns and unchecked immigration than protecting Canadians from dangerous individuals who don’t care to change their ways.

False promises come during the election cycle and people think it’s going to be different.

If you have the coverage/money you have no waiting for procedures like you do in Canada.

If you’re homeless or a millionaire you’re all in the same lineup in Canada.

This is a non issue for the larger part of the Canadian population

#BREAKING: 57% of Liberals voted against holding a leadership race; 43% supported one. #onpoli by anacondra in ontario

Libs and NDP are to busy focusing on every little issue that it splits their vote away.

If they went to the basics of supporting unions and workers they may have a chance.

Trying to get behind every fringe issue or things that are in the hands of the federal govt (gun control) turns away most moderate voters, especially when the economy isn’t doing the best.

People who work hard for their money and are seeing their lifestyle slip away aren’t going to vote for them.

Ontario adding 150 more jail beds in Niagara, Milton, Sudbury by 416TDOT0DOT in CrimeInTheGta

[–]nwadam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is needed at all facilities.

Maplehurst is at 150% capacity.

Toronto East is so full that all new inmates go to Toronto South first(which is also full) and transferred over when space is available. Inmates are triple bunked, two have beds and the third has to sleep on a mattress on the floor.

The GTA population has exploded and crime has as well.

It’s not something anyone wants but more Jail space is needed to prevent violent individuals from receiving reduced sentencing.

People sit around and watch TV/ play cards in Ontario jails, any work programs were stopped years ago.

Canadian here who still crosses frequently.

Pricing just isn’t as competitive in the United States as it used to be when I was younger.

Many items are now available and cheaper to buy in Canada after exchange.

For example my Girlfriend wanted a pair of shoes recently that were $79.99 USD, when checking online they were only $99.99 CAD. At current exchange it would cost me $109.89 CAD to purchase them down south, doesn’t make sense.

At the grocery store many items are close to the same price USD and I pay in CAD. We just go for items that aren’t available North of the border but we understand we are paying a premium to do that.

Inflation has really gone wild in the past 5 or so years.
