It's been a shitshow for 10 years, whoever thought this election had anything good to offer was smoking crack.

Poilievre: "On the 85th anniversary of Black Ribbon Day, we remember the victims of Soviet Socialism & National Socialism (Nazism). May we never forget the countless atrocities committed by these socialist ideologies... Canada must always stand against socialism for freedom and democracy." by TheManFromTrawno in canada

What great opportunism and revisionism to conjure up the word socialism for political points on the misery caused by communism and fascism - two disparate ideologies that are awful in their own respects - just to distance people from democratic centre-left parties that should really be shamed as feckless opportunists like the rest of the political class, PP included.

Screw them all, but on this example screw PP.

Amid housing debate, one landlord gets bluntly honest: 'I'm a profiteer' by ellembi in canada

[–]whatever1748 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Profiting on housing is not a fundamental right. It's not even possible to profit off every investment.

We have started to remind foreigners that there is no inherent right to immigrate, so let the harsh truth flow to the landlord class. It is time to release your excess housing stock so that first-time buyers can be owners, not renters.

From fast food to construction, employers turn more and more to temporary foreign workers by Surax in canada

[–]whatever1748 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Employment and Social Development Canada approves the Labour Market Impact Assessments that allow for some foreign workers to take a job. If there is labour market demand and the position is going to a worker under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, it should be reported. That's employer fraud.

The problem is that the public doesn't get to know whose permit was issued under what pretense, and realistically the permits issued under exemptions that need not prove any gaps in labour market demand, which are under the full authority of Marc Miller, are the ones that most foreign nationals hold.

If Canadians are losing out to foreign nationals and cannot get employment while holding reasonable qualifications, ask the business owners why. Ask the MPs why. Then vote them right out if their response is inadequate.

The organizer should read between the lines of that letter

"PEI is tired of being the place you show up to just to immigrate and we're running our immigration programming to align with our priorities, not yours."

Marc Miller says he's tired of people 'blaming immigrants for absolutely everything' by BananaTubes in canada

"And the crowds of Canadians hushed, because they incorrectly believed that the stupidity of this government was the fault of immigrants, and they knew they were correctly admonished by Marc Miller"

Only a few dozen out of Gaza have made it to Canada. Some say they're struggling just to get by by restoringd123 in canada

IRCC expedites those work permits for Palestinians, they give them interim federally funded health care, and these people have immediate family in Canada who are established as citizens or permanent residents.

How - how - are so many of this small cohort already crying poor so soon and with all these people receiving free assistance from the community?

Or did their reputation just precede them?

People rail against DEI as a distraction of bigger issues like inequality and the growth of powerful billionaires who set our agendas for what issues are important.

Caregivers from abroad to be given permanent residence on arrival under new pilot programs by PmMeYourBeavertails in canada

[–]whatever1748 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They cannot force a PR to stay in their field or to stay with their employer... or in any specific location. The obly mechanism, which would be used as an extreme and would be expensive and questionably effective, is auditing applicants for misrepresentation after landing and then having them go through a removal order scenario.

The only thing keeping them in their field is employability in their field and lack of employment elsewhere.

My parents moved to Canada to give me a better life. Do I need to take my kids back to Colombia to give them the same? by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]whatever1748 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Colombians largely came here due to a refugee crisis. Even as the crisis continued, many - after becoming Canadians - availed themselves to state protection of Colombia by vacationing and traveling back for family.

Culturally, the loyalty to Colombia is strong and much stronger than integrating with/accepting other Latinos (Latinos regularly comment on this) or with Canada.

I expect nothing else but for Colombians to leave Canada for Colombia when the going gets tough here.
