  1. Selective memory you got Didn’t we recently complain about human rights/ genocide with the Uyghurs in China? When some Uyghurs committed terrorist acts on Chinese streets Where some Uyghurs were thrown into re-education camps The world and Canada called it cultural genocide Where some Palestinians escaped their Gaza Ghettos committed terrorist acts on Israeli streets. We in Canada call that terrorism, justifying the bombing of Palestinian civilians in their Gaza Ghettos

  2.  @AAnnie...Iamokay  a few reasons why we kept interest rates low The main ones being to spur on the economy. And since we have been de beat Canadians we have run up 2 trillion in Provincial/Federql debt Low interest rates allowed us to run up that debt without paying huge amounts to service that debt The amount of money we borrowed and printed up helping to juice up our economy It did not create inflation because our economy was actually doing bad As we should be asking why didn’t the economy do any better Considering we are about to to literally pay for that overindulged high standard of living we borrowed and spent to create

Canadians who can’t pay our debts sitting on 2 trillion in Provincial/Federal debt these days Debt we really started running up in the 1940s. Sow dem gud ole dais ye pine fer? we didn’t pay for the first time around Which we just kicked this debt down the road for future generations to pay for Problem is, we stopped meeting “natural” population replacement rates in 1971 And we have around 1000 boomers turning 65 each and everyday in Canada (That started in 2011 won’t end until 2028) By 2036 we will have around 11 million Canadian seniors As by 2032 immigration will make up 100% of our population growth So we pack in the immigrants the poor ones to make our french fries and more importantly flip us over in bed in the old age home The rich ones to come support the economy and prop up the real estate Because most of these boomers are also personally cash poor/in debt But luckily….most of these boomers???? Shockingly by some engineered miracle the last few decades 😉!!!!! own a 40 year old plus never been renovated, overpriced home some immigrant is willing to overpay for.

  5.  @888Longball  Some of us have a selective memory, as we recently did complain about human rights/ genocide with the Uyghur Chinese in China When some Uyghur Chinese committed terrorist acts on Chinese streets Where some Uyghur Chinese were thrown into re-education camps The world and Canada called it cultural genocide Where some Palestinians escaped their Gaza Ghettos committed terrorist acts on Israeli streets. We in Canada call that terrorism, justifying the bombing of Palestinian civilians in their Gaza Ghettos Which begs the question China throws money at their ethnic Uyghur Chinese and gives them special rights over the Han majority. Yet we consider it cultural genocide What does Israel consider these Palestinian people as??? As they bomb them in those Gaza Ghettoes Israel forced them into. Yet in this situation, we mostly stay silent on that genocide

  10. To understand universities’ addiction to international student fees, it’s worth looking back at the 1990s. This was a terrible decade for higher education: cutbacks were constant, tuition kept going up, student aid was slashed, and the system came out of it in pretty rough shape. But then came the 2000s, and the good times rolled. The economy improved, a demographic wave of new students washed into higher education, and governments started spending on education again (figure 1). As a result, universities saw their budgets grow at 6 percent per year after inflation for an entire decade. And their cost base — 70 percent of which goes to salaries, which are very hard to reduce because of tenure and collective agreements — rose in tandem. Policy Options

Not just the suddenly woah oak lefties This is a Conservative Canadian Supreme Court Justice, appointed by a Conservative PM Harper, in our top Canadian Supreme Court, dominated by Conservative Justices since 2012. The majority of these Justices also appointed by Harper . Striking down this law introduced by Harpers Conservative Government 👇 Supreme Court strikes down ‘degrading’ parole ineligibility law for mass murders By Betsy Powell Courts Reporter Fri., May 27, 2022 But in Friday’s much-anticipated ruling, Chief Justice Richard Wagner said Section 745.51 of the Criminal Code violates section 12 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms in a way that cannot be justified in a free and democratic society. Section 12 guarantees the right not to be subjected to cruel and unusual punishment. What is at stake is our commitment, as a society, to respect human dignity and the inherent worth of every individual,” the decision states. Striking down the law should not be seen as devaluing the lives of innocent victims, the court said. “Everyone would agree that multiple murders are inherently despicable acts and are the most serious crimes, with consequences that last forever. This appeal is not about the value of each human life, but rather about the limits on the state’s power to punish offenders, which, in a society founded on the rule of law, must be exercised in a manner consistent with the Constitution.” TheStar
