  1. I am a young educated Canadian and I am looking at good places for second residency! I will never be paying taxes to this government! :)

  2. The government didn't build cheap starter homes. The market (construction workers) did. In my area, there's hasnt been a single property zoned for a mobile home park (starter homes) since the 70s. Municipalities and current (boomer) homeowners don't want it to be easy and cheap to build affordable houses, it will lower their net worth.

  3.  @wonaegun7143  K I'm looking for a whole psychological profile and analysis from a stranger. How do I sign up for your advice?

  4. Does the city of Edmonton have their own police answering to the mayor, or do they follow the RCMP?

  5.  @geralddichiara1117  You don't really give Canadians green cards, but I will be in the SW and Florida for sure. Also have to avoid staying more than six months in a calendar year or the IRS goes after you. I'd never pay a cent to your murderous Pentagon, CIA, FBI, NSA, homeland security, etc.

  6. Just raise the child tax benefit a little bit. Why did Trudeau end tax deductions for kids sports? A lot of these sports organizations are all volunteers anyway.

  7. You're hurting Canadians by taxing us Canadian consumers. You have to learn economics before you advocate any positions related to economics.

  8. Well you were completely wrong

  9. Weak for having a reciprocal extradition treaty in place for decades? Lol

  10. We are the only idiotic people who think we are "forward thinking" yet even ban an APP like Uber and have the worst housing prices in North America.

  11. Ontario is ghei

  12. So Canada should not follow our security and extradition agreements for the times you personally don't want us to? They are reciprocal, if we don't follow the treaty our partner will not follow in return. By the way, nobody in any country has rights in an airport. Travel sometime and inform yourself. International airports, in most countries, are places where you can be held for very long times without even a charge. I'm sure Chinese airport security and immigration authorities hold people all the time.

  13. 1. We are right that our steel is not a security threat. 2. Trump and Canadian consumers who want affordable dairy are correct that we impose 300% tariffs on dairy products which drives up costs for Canadian families.

  14. All airports can take people against their will and hold them without trial. This goes on all the time, every day at all the airports. The only reason people are commenting on this particular case is because a rich and important woman got arrested instead of a nobody.

  15. Evil self interested auto workers unions HATE that GM is switching to electric cars. They know the polluting internal combustion engine cars they create require 2-3x the labour. These union auto workers only care about THEIR money and not our society or the rest of the world.

  16. Lmao

  17. Every time this extradition issue comes up, Canadians want to get rid of it. We were all against sending Marc Emery to face trial in the US and I think most of us did not want to send Meng to the US. We should just end the extradition treaty.

  18. Doesn't Paul Ryan support trade with us?

  19. Yeah, cybersecurity is often too hard of an issue for journalists to wrap their heads around. Don't expect mainstream medi journalists to understand anything about it.

  20. You have to possess marijuana, not be said to have used it once in your life. Laws 101

  21. This is how people eat in countries with reasonable labour prices and motorcycle delivery. You can buy everything by phone or app in China, Korea, Vietnam etc. Most apartments for single people in Southeast Asia don't include a kitchen (just a fridge), because it's affordable to eat out for every meal.

  22. So arresting a random Canadian guy is giving me what kind of medicine, exactly? Lol

  23. She is also a Canadian citizen and lived in Vancouver.

  24.  @rosestewart1606  There has been no extradition yet.

  26. So if the US shoots itself in the foot, we have to respond by shooting both of our feet?

  27. She is Canadian (actually a dual citizen). Don't extradite our citizens for developing Iranian people's cell phone towers. That's not a real crime.

  28. We should let her go home
