  696. @devdalling9876 If you're making that much and still struggling, the real problem is you living beyond your means.
    1
  697. The Trudeau Diet.
    1
  698. Who's the rich?
    1
  699.  @titusmccarthy  Mostly Liberal/NDP voters getting exactly what they voted for.
    1
  700. Just like Canada needs a real economy not dependent on the US.
    1
  701.  @Styles26  You mean its franchise managers, because Wal-Mart makes most of its money from real estate and royalties.
    1
  702. For what? So they can be mismanaged?
    1
  703. Helping the homeless stay homeless.
    1
  704. Isn't the TTC owned by the City falling under the authority of Jack Layton's widow?
    1
  705. LOL. Actually yes he does. Most of the tent camps are filled with junkies. Rent is the least of their problems.
    1
  706. Trudeau is just picking up where his step-father left off.
    1
  707.  @caitlanstannah6126  But living in Toronto is a privilege.
    1
  708.  @barbmills8609  Usually in the suburbs or exburbs.
    1
  709. Exactly!
    1
  710. <air travel is not a right, it is a privilege.> As COVID proved.
    1
  711. Inflation and unemployment.
    1
  712.  @navjeetrakhra7672  Wrong! It was Pierre Trudeau who opened the floodgates.
    1
  713. They already can't get jobs due to their criminal records and problematic conduct.
    1
  714.  @ravinderdhupia4779  Yet it still pales in comparison to what atheists have done under Hitler, Mao and Stalin.
    1
  715.  @derekdicks1820  <And you won't get gst cheques or anything at all.> Because $40/hour = $76 800/year which puts you a solid $20 000 over the income limit.
    1
  716. Harper was not the PM in 2020. Take that up with Trudeau who was.
    1
  717. So is a vote for Liberals/NDP-ers along with higher taxes and living costs, more government overreach and stagnant economy.
    1
  718. Left-wing policy at work. Hurting the very same little man it claims to be helping.
    1
  719. Too bad the West is too soft and morally compromised for that.
    1
  720.  @notastone4832  Margaret Thatcher was elected in the UK for a reason.
    1
  721. Air BnB is a consequence of government meddling.
    1
  722. Harper imposed entry Visas for foreigners doing the same during his time as PM.
    1
  723. Against the results of what they voted for.
    1
  724.  @piku5637  <We lack an actual militant socialist and anarchist left in this country.> And that's a good thing. Canada does not need to be another Cuba, Venezuela or Mao-era China.
    1
  725. No. That would be greedy governments as landlords have nothing to do with the hiking of property taxes, land values, developer permit fees, etc.
    1
  726.  @pacman3556  Quebec's SAQ is also state-owned and controlled.
    1
  727.  @harps1974  <How do you know if people are paying off debt bills Student loans?> Virtually all of which they they took on by choice.
    1
  728.  @Finglebangle  Like what? Marxist indoctrination?
    1
  729.  @Aiphiae  Justin is just picking up where his father left off.
    1
  730.  @person-yu8cu  No we don't. And the healthcare cuts have been going since the Chretien-Martin era.
    1
  731. Also meth-heads OOPS! I mean real Canadians.
    1
  732. According to who? Quebecers still setting over Harper winning majority government without them?
    1
  733. But thanks to bureaucracy that priced and regulated regular folks out of the market, only the rich can afford to build and/or own property.
    1
  734.  @fallenangel7884  And proud.
    1
  735. Drug-addicts are not innocent.
    1
  736. LOL. And what have rent caps done except exacerbate the housing crisis with fewer rentals available and landlords having to sell the property because they were legally barred from generating enough revenue to cover the ever-rising operating expenses which were not capped?
    1
  737.  @dorinpopa6962  So will 1932, because communism cannot and is too incompetent to deliver on its grandiose promises
    1
  738. Also Fentanyl was made easily available.
    1
  739. What do you expect from an organization run by Marxists and and West-haters?
    1
  740. Well, most people are idiots.
    1
  741. Only to get eaten by same revolution in the process.
    1
  742. No. The government is the greedy one.
    1
  743. Who knew that social democracy and mass immigration didn't mix?
    1
  744.  @StealthyXxX  Isn't this what the left mean by tax the rich?
    1
  745. Do you liberals realize those people make up the minority?
    1
  746. <Like if the government choose to be the US’s lap dog, at least get the US to pay for it.> Why can't Canada pay for its own defense?
    1
  747.  @DjWellDressedMan  Wrong! Justin's step-father was the reason food banks came to existence.
    1
  748.  @JessT-vg7ib  Or manage the money they make from the one job they do have better.
    1
  749. The social democracy welfare state model does a far better job of enabling laziness and irresponsibility. The food banks are just symptoms. If anything, either abolish welfare altogether or impose term limits and strict eligibility requirements.
    1
  750. Two reasons. Immigration and welfare.
    1
  751.  @pacman3556  Which was supported by everyone except immigrants and crime syndicates.
    1
  752.  @gravegaming2023  Thanks to record inflation caused by the federal government.
    1
  753. Whatever, needle-freak!
    1
  754.  @frankmoon9350  Due to investments made in other arenas and revenues generated from the subsidiary companies they own.
    1
  755.  @therealdoug1000  To offset the record costs they had the bear thanks to their suppliers and producers getting carbon and fuel-taxed.
    1
  756.  @EmpressEbony88  But that's the price they're willing to pay if it means they don't have to deal with the toxicity of their home countries via political persecution, civil war, general lack of safety, stagnation and ruin, etc.
    1
  757. Actually yes it did albeit on a small scale. McGill University was named after a slave-owner and so was Brantford.
    1
  758. You're free to find housing that was built before 11/15/2018 as there are plenty to go around. Too bad with rent control, that's in short supply.
    1
  759. And living beyond their means.
    1
  760. That you probably voted for.
    1
  761. @TheBendablespoons You're free to start your own business if you don't like it. But you prefer security and stability so you allow the capitalists to do it.
    1
  762. And watch a lot of them price themselves out of a job and onto the unemployment line.
    1
  763. The ship has long sailed on that.
    1
  764.  @person-yu8cu  <Only the revolutionary workers organized as the ruling class can crush the enemies of the people.> And then become the enemies of the people themselves. Like every other revolution.
    1
  765. <Cause no employers want to pay high salary to people.> Certainly right out the gate while said people don't have the skills or experience yet to warrant anything higher.
    1
  766. So do the neo-Marxist NDP. Otherwise they won't have any "free" money to offer their supporters.
    1
  767. No. And not even close. Greedy government is the biggest problem of them all.
    1
  768. Assad is secular.
    1
  769. Hope you're ready to pay 30% more for your goods to support that.
    1
  770. But food is not a right. Either produce it or earn it.
    1
  771.  @62Cristoforo  How about helping them get off of drugs?
    1
  772.  @LorraineCyr  No. Trudeau did this. The so-called greedy corporations are just reaping the benefits of his policies.
    1
  773. And Kathleen Wynne was better?
    1
  774. Who people in Canada pay the salaries of with the high taxes.
    1
  775.  @greendude27  The same jerbz you swore your were above working.
    1
  776. The Ontario government owns the LCBO.
    1
  777. <How about the price of this tiny apartments that are sold for ridiculous prices? Who can afford it? The whole demographics changed in midtown in all these new buildings just new Indian and Asian immigrants, who are willing to pay these prices.> You just answered your own question. And apparently to the Asian immigrants, the prices are not that ridiculous.
    1
  778. Rest in peace.
    1
  779.  @earthwormjim6962  Or in the Bible. He who does not work shall not eat. (c) 2 Thessalonians 3:10-13. Sorry, socialists, but it's either grow your own food or buy your own food.
    1
  780.  @rickvervoort9536  That interestingly the left still practice while the right moved on.
    1
  781. Say what you will about Duplessis, but he wasn't scared to take a stand against unions.
    1
  782. You sound like a 25%-er.
    1
  783. LOL
    1
  784. ROFL.
    1
  785.  @stoneneils  Carbon tax is not worldwide.
    1
  786.  @tailiu223  That would be 68% of ordinary Canadians.
    1
  787. And the PM is a drama teacher and trust-fund baby.
    1
  788. Path rage?
    1
  789. Abolish rent control.
    1
  790.  @SnowWhite-hr4ho  What about buildings built before 2018?
    1
  791. And become a food desert.
    1
  792.  @jagwa95  But housing is still not a right. Either pay the rent or buy your own house.
    1
  793.  @Elecjester  <but we aren't paying 10x your fuckin mortgage payment either you clown.> Then buy your own house and pay your own mortgage.
    1
  794.  @UzumakiNaruto_  <The NDP and Green parties have been around for decades and they're still minor parties with relative little influence in parliament.> Given how the NDP bankrupted every other province they got elected to govern lasting only one term in the process, that's a good thing.
    1
  795. <diminishing government subsidies and underfunded social programs > Due to governments running out of other people's money to finance them in the face of growing demand.
    1
  796.  @jonjonson5730  You mean 2022.
    1
  797.  @jq7995  LOL
    1
  798. For what? Canada does not need any more wage-suppression.
    1
  799.  @checkfactschecking  Trudeau has plenty of control over the carbon and fuel taxes.
    1
  800.  @checkfactschecking  And watch them bankrupt the country like they did every other province they got elected. LOL
    1
  801. The same regular people who live beyond their means and are now paying the price for it?
    1
  802. I though police chiefs were appointed by mayors.
    1
  803. Activists or really just pimps?
    1
  804. But Australia's living costs are much higher than Canada's.
    1
  805. No. Greedy government is. .
    1
  806. It's just socialists being socialists. When they're not at war with foreign capitalists, they're at war with their own citizens hence the high police spending.
    1
  807. Whatever benefits the minimum wage raise is supposed to provide will be short-lived.
    1
  808.  @Lorenzo1972.  Also remember that socialists are enemies of the middle class otherwise known as the bourgeoisie.
    1
  809.  @ansh7335  <People love living in places with better safety net, high minimum taxes.> Yet have higher crime, homelessness and are ground zero for America's housing crisis.
    1
  810.  @americanhotdog  Liberals are hypocrites. They care about the poor and disabled as long as it's at someone else's expense.
    1
  811. They just F'ed around and found out the hard way.
    1
  812. For someone of limited qualifications, $22 per hour gross is pretty damn good. And in Montreal, that's pretty much the average wage.
    1
  813. <If , the very poeple who worship at the altar of money stopped pillaging and laying waste to every person in Canada, the 99% , then there would be no need for food banks. > Justin's step-father made food banks a thing in Canada.
    1
  814. Only to tenants who didn't have enough sense to buy their own property.
    1
  815.  @pacman3556  But not everyone has the foresight or wisdom to save or invest for their futures.
    1
  816.  @tidbit1877  Hard to create affordable housing in the face of high land values, taxes, building costs and demand.
    1
  817. That's because you don't live in Quebec.
    1
  818. No. That's Liberal malice.
    1
  819.  @pacman3556  Who's the rich?
    1
  820. And have them concentrated in Toronto.
    1
  821.  @ansh7335  <Ending slavery would destroy the economy. > It destroyed the South's economy. It destroyed the economies of some African kingdoms that relied on the slave trade for economic survival.
    1
  822.  @matthews95_  <instead you have slacker agency workers> Cons: hit-or-miss productivity. Pros: less costly to fire, don't have to pay them anything beyond a standard wage, don't have to officially hire them even if they prove themselves worthwhile.
    1
  823.  @Vocal-Vegan  PP own his home and do most of his voter base.
    1
  824.  @valslade5779  They only make up 10% of Canada's population tops. The average Canada Post worker makes right around the municipal average.
    1
  825. Rest in peace. :(
    1
  826. No. Price controls = inevitable shortages.
    1
  827.  @StephenLeGresley  Tell that BS to Venezuela.
    1
  828. And how exactly does that work in the big city?
    1
  829. But Trudeau does control the taxes he imposes that jack up the cost of production and distribution which in turn affects the final sale price.
    1
  830. Isn't Rogers a Conservative Party donor?
    1
  831. Or South Korea.
    1
  832. No. It lies in the municipal zoning restrictions that make condos the only high-density housing legally allowed to be built within city limits.
    1
  833.  @FundiWaStima  The government made affordable rental options non-viable.
    1
  834. Just like left-wingers being mindless sycophants for governments crushing them with high taxes and inflation.
    1
  835.  @XetaXones  <Shes ndp, > As in neo-Marxist.
    1
  836. Compassion and empathy replaced it.
    1
  837. The funny thing is communist countries never supported open borders.
    1
  838. And then eat each other. Revolutions always eat their own.
    1
  839.  @billwhitis9997  <The 40 year old Friedman Trickle down theory is long past its best before date.> Interestingly still practiced by leftists.
    1
  840. Unless they benefit.

  841. That only helps for one week.
