  3. We borrowed and spent living the good life/high standard of living That is what you folks don’t get… we are broke…. 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. Which these boomers can get lines of credit on or reverse mortgage on Or sell if they have to Which they should not .. … as that home will be one their own personal old age home in the future unless you can show me some links… on our building/buying enough facilities to house millions of Canadian seniors in the next decade Yes it’s one big Ponzi scheme that scr (ew) over the younger folks but we don’t want to crash our Ponzi Scheme of economy. (I have purposely gone to live in countries and among the locals living on a dollar a day wages in comparison to our dollar. You think your life su…cks these days) Try having 50k of someone else’s currency worth 2 million of our Canadian dollars Or have what kids you and I did actually have… Having to sell their wares to Russian sailors for a 500 CDN dollar loaf of bread or trying to sail a boat to some distant country for a better life Or grandmami/grandpapi begging on the street because that nest egg home they have they can’t sell off or afford to live in So the people at the bottom of our society lose out…. or we all do Don’t like packing in these immigrants/people as the solution? Let’s hear you folks say “I demand to pay more taxes” and “I demand less social services in return” Or let’s sell 25 year 50 year forward contracts on our natural resources some foreign corporation or Country can come into mine. Using our young as cheap labour Or let’s be known as the deadbeat generation who had to resort to selling off pieces of Canada Plus since we stopped replacing ourselves. It will be more and more likely the great great great grandkids of these new immigrants stuck paying off the debts we run up long after we are gone… As we stick them with the bill But since we have been sel fish our whole lives living that good life let’s “now” complain about the solutions after decades and decades of this Our being broke… azzz Canadians who couldn’t replace ourselves

  7.  @mattvanr2361  look at you trying so hard to blame anyone else but yourself You took the time to type… but did not do your own research Embarrassing 👇 Toronto study initiated more than thirty years ago provides some of the most convincing evidence to support the theory that more immigration equals less crime. In 1976, John Hagan, now a professor of sociology and law at both U of T and Northwestern University in Chicago, surveyed a group of 835 teenagers at four high schools in a region west of Toronto, near Pearson International Airport. (The community has never been named, to protect residents’ anonymity.) He asked them about their families, their attitudes toward education, what they did when they hung out with their friends, and the kind of trouble they got into. Did they smoke pot? Get into fights? Ever steal a car and take it for a joyride? At the time, Hagan, who has since become one of the most prominent experts on immigration and crime, wasn’t looking into the issue of immigration at all. His interest was in youth delinquency, and such school-based studies were dominant during this period. The site he chose for his research, however, was about to undergo a radical demographic transformation. When his U of T colleagues Ronit Dinovitzer, a professor of sociology and law, and Ron Levi, a professor of criminology, returned in 1999 to repeat the survey, the community had become what they call “a global edge city”—taking the name from Joel Garreau’s groundbreaking 1991 book, Edge City, about emerging suburban economic power centres—with a high proportion of visible minorities, mainly South Asian, black, Filipino, and Chinese. Of Dinovitzer and Levi’s 900 respondents, a full 66 percent were from immigrant, non-European backgrounds (up from 10 percent in the original group), and it was upon seeing this diversity that the researchers realized they had more than just a study on youth delinquency; they had ample evidence to examine the relationship between immigration and crime. In an office at U of T’s Centre of Criminology, overlooking the Ontario legislature in Queen’s Park, Dinovitzer and Levi explain their findings. The overall rate of what they called “youthful illegalities”—drinking, taking drugs, petty theft, vandalism, fighting, and so on—was significantly lower in the immigrant-rich 1999 cohort, and in both groups immigrant kids were less likely than their peers to engage in delinquent behaviour. Also, as Sampson had discovered, the disinclination to commit crime extended across all nationalities; it didn’t matter whether a teenager’s family was from India or Trinidad or China. Specific cultural values were not at play; nor could behaviour be chalked up to a given ethnic group’s parenting style (sorry, Tiger Moms) The walrus
