Canada is a failed state

[Super-Chevy454]

Americans have been fed misinformation about Canada to no end. When Michael Moore featured Toronto in his ''Bowling for Columbine'' movie as a paradise with no crime, poverty or guns in 2002 the reality could not have been further than the truth.

I begin to wonder if Michael Moore visited Toronto when it was not that multicultural yet?

Well, can't afford to eat anymore. Anyone else feel like shooting themselves lately?

Themselves? No. Corrupt politicians and the elite who've ruined this country?

Yes. In Minecraft.

Also, if I'm sounding like I'm preaching, I apoligize. Try eggs, if you don't have an allergy. They are incredibly versatile, you can do so much with them, and they are a great source of nutrients. Like everything else, they are still expensive, but at least you get a lot of them. Also, beef prices can fuck right off.

I think we should invade and annex Canada. They are essentially an extension of the British Empire and frankly the Monroe Doctrine does not go far enough. We need to kick European powers out of our hemisphere.

There are some in the West who would roll out the welcome mat because of Ottawa ineptitude. As that note, I think some might find this video interesting.

Seen it and I don’t care what they think. All of Canada, minus perhaps Quebec, shall be incorporated into the United States.

To help budget, look up an app called "Flashfood". Stores put stuff (meat especially) on clearance and you can save a lot. You just should cook or freeze what you buy relatively quickly.

But yeah, the financial situation is brutal right now.

I bought a bunch of grapes that cost $11 the other day and thought about it. It's no wonder. Trying to stem the bleed from their own fucktarded covid policy by printing money, the wage inflation exacerbated by people who don't want to give up the lockdown neet life, out of control inflation of property values, the fucking fuel costs, while endlessly spending on shit like tranny healthcare, foreign aid to shitholes that has zero benefit to us, and supporting constant streams of refugees who will never get off the gibs and bring over their entire extended family to receive healthcare/welfare and take up all the subsidized housing... Shit was probably heading in this direction anyway but that definitely sped it up by a decade or two. It seems plausible that the globohomo swamp creatures are doing this on purpose to usher in UBI and the Great Reset, because it's much more difficult to imagine a government could even fuck everything up this bad by staggering incompetence alone.

Up until they were fucked by sanctions I'm at the point where I wouldn't have been that upset if we got annexed by Russia. I can respect nationalisn and tapping into your own resources for the benefit of your own people, and the level of corruption probably isn't any different, at least with Putin it's an open secret and he doesn't try to insult everyone's intelligence by providing anything but the most cursory denial. I don't fancy being drafted into a ground war and potentially killed for the sake of fucking with the Ukrainians since I don't have generations of investment in the conflict, but being used as a meat shield isn't much less dignified than being forced to prostrate ourselves to "marginalized people" while being bought and sold by our government and told it's for our own good.

I'm not even totally sure whether or not I'm joking.

Back to Michael Moore who once praised Toronto in "Bowling for Colombine", he might not like that article who show Toronto in a more negative light.

https://www.unz.com/article/torontos-anarchic-violence/

Despite lockdowns, stay-at-home orders, and physical distancing, violent crime and the illicit firearms trade have not declined in Toronto during the pandemic. Toronto’s newspapers report gunfights, mayhem, brazen daylight shootings, and bank robberies. Although the high profile “peaceful protests” of 2020 have all but disappeared, low-intensity asymmetrical warfare continues.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau preached dialogue and understanding on his recent European photo-op tour in support of Ukraine — shortly after invoking martial law to crush peaceful trucker protests at home — but his immigration and gun control policies continue to bring violence to Canada’s biggest city.

VDARE’s James Kirkpatrick has noted that American cities with large black populations have essentially fallen off the map of Western Civilization. Canada is not a failed state, but large swaths of its large cities are reminiscent of those Third World hellscapes.

Toronto is a powerful financial and provincial political hub, but it suffers from many social problems; foremost in the minds of many is crime. Toronto media report many instances of black criminality and violence, and even the leftist CBC news admits that blacks and Amerindians – whom it calls “over-policed” – are disproportionately incarcerated

Toronto police used to run street checks on suspected perpetrators; it was known as “carding.” Carding and the Toronto Anti-Violence Intervention Strategy (TAVIS) reduced violence. The TAVIS system saw a dramatic reduction in violence from its advent in 2005 through 2014; the number of people wounded and killed by gunfire in Toronto dropped by 55 percent, from 231 to 103.

At that time, Ontario’s liberal provincial premier, Kathleen Wynne, abandoned the program because of allegations of racism – a clear indication of which ethnic group was being “carded.” Violence increased, culminating in 2021’s 408 shootings that saw 163 injured and 46 killed – a more than 100 percent increase in shooting victims since the last year of TAVIS in 2014.

This year is off to a record-breaking start. As of January 23, 2022, the number of people killed by gunfire is up 300 percent compared to the previous January (eight victims as opposed to 2). Those killed or injured are up 111 percent, the number injured but not killed is up 57 percent, and the number of shootings is up 14 percent.

The University of Toronto’s homicide tracker “was developed visually to depict the devastating, disproportionate prevalence of homicide in predominantly African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) neighbourhoods throughout Toronto.” Its website found that “75 per cent of Canadian homicide victims are racialized Ontarians, and 44 per cent identified as African, Caribbean or Black.”

In a recent blog for American Renaissance, Chris Roberts lists the names and photographs of the most-wanted murderers from Toronto’s Homicide Most Wanted page. Of the 35 suspects, only two are white, even though approximately half of the city’s population is white. As Mr. Roberts points out, “it’s another reminder that racial behavioral patterns are universal.” Blacks are more likely to commit violent crimes than whites. This is true in all of North America’s largest cities with significant black populations.

Here is a small sampling of Toronto crime stories just from the month of April last year. In Ajax, a town in the greater Toronto area (GTA) there was a brazen daylight shooting in which a “man and a woman sustained life-threatening injuries;” three Toronto men were arrested in connection with a fatal shooting; two black men were arrested for a series of bank robberies in the Toronto area; police arrested four men and a woman in connection with break-ins throughout Southern Ontario and parts of the GTA; an aspiring rapper was “accused of unloading a war zone’s worth of bullets” in a GTA neighborhood; one man was killed and three others wounded following a daylight shooting.

I wonder what kind of fine, upstanding people could possibly be doing these shootings? And whether maybe they share some sort of common trait?

I know you're joking, but it's exactly who you'd imagine it to be most of the time. That's right: the Hungarians.

It's enraging when the Liberals/NDP put out political ads about gun control; there's one out right now (I forget which party it is, probably the Liberals) and they show their rainbow diverse communities while talking about how gang shootings are up, illegal guns are out there, etc. and how the government is going to do something (try to make it harder for the average person to obtain and keep legal firearms) about it. Everyone knows that it's not guns that are the problem. Rarely is it some farmer from a rural place shooting shit up. In the big cities like Toronto it's not often some white guy or Chinese guy. It's almost always some guy whose mug shot would look right at home with any collage of criminals from Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit or some other shithole in the US where guns just magically become sentient all of the time and kill people.

The "Despite being 13% of the population..." meme in the US has to be far worse here, at least regarding gun crime. Toronto is a joke and Canadian media is worse. Last year (maybe it was 2020, things are a blur) for a few weeks they were all up in arms about these alleged totally real and organic hate crimes where nooses were found at some construction sites. Oh it's just awful, no one can feel safe, no one ever has video evidence of someone putting them there but we must be vigilant! That's the real problem, not the shootings or at least not who commits them because that's uncomfortable for some people to talk about.

 

[TurdFondler]

Once we ban all the long guns, especially the notorious black powder revolvers and muzzle load rifles, gun crime will plummet.

At the same time we should give the mohawk reserves more funding and increase African refugee intake in Toronto.

Its because the Lib-NDPs are running a circus basically.

I'm using that term here, because they're using marginal or non-issues to galvanize people away from actual issues.

I know what an "actual issue" is can be subjective, sure- but on things that will have a direct impact and are having a direct impact on Canadians lives, theres basically no attempt to address them and every attempt to sweep them under the rug.

For example: A simple question on average house prices

Notice how its constantly not answering the question. Even the answers he does give are misdirecting. "Jobs growth" which basically, if you look at the stats, is new jobs in temp labour and the service sector. I don't know, something about 60% of new jobs being new service sector McJobs isn't particularly exciting to me.

If you want where we are currently at with housing:


Lack of good jobs, inflation, wages, the price of housing, these are things Id consider actual issues. The bread and butter of every day life (can't believe that when I say bread and butter issues, yes, the price of bread and butter is now actually a concern for the first time in basically a century). Culture war issues seem to be the only thing the lib-ndps seem to focus on, issues that should be marginal (I should also note, the conservatives have their own cultural issues they focus on and play along as well, so its really a blackpill situation).

Racism in Canada? Its one of the most welcoming nations in the world, and I can say that having lived in numerous other countries. Even if one imagined that racism was common in Canada, if I had to choose between 1/100 people calling me a spic, but I have a decent job, can afford a house, and inflation is low- or the inverse, you can guess what actually has priority to me.

Gun violence? Yeah, it can be a problem, but its nowhere near as bad as other nations, and if politicians are giving multiple speeches about "We need to curb gun violence and ban guns" but not "Bruh, the price of houses is way too high and the Chinese are buying everything" I'll call that a circus distraction, a cultural signaling to liberal soccer moms to "vote for me, I'm a cultural liberal too".

Even the way politicians want to address these problems speaks less of practicality, more of virtue signaling. If gun violence really is so bad in Toronto (Hamilton is worse imo, but both are nowhere near as bad to similar sized cities in the US), banning guns won't do much. You need better policing, which means more police, and stronger social services. This would lead me to believe that lib-ndps don't actually care about solving even these marginal issues, they care more about exploiting people's views on these issues to maintain their voter base. Its really the worst of both worlds, where actual issues are ignored, and marginal ones aren't even properly addressed.

I'll say this as someone who was a leftist. This current millennial and gen x culture war obsessed leftism, because culture war obsessed left wing really is what it should be called, is a cancer. Listening to a Peterson podcast where he reminisces about how the NDP of the 70s, while he may disagree with some of their points and while there were certainly petty people, actually was union oriented, came from the legitimate labor movement, and focused on economic issues- even if they have solutions I may not like, I still envy that they at least properly identified the real problems facing the majority of Canadians. Ironically, this was a labor movement, which in the 70s, even favored protectionism at times and tariffs to keep jobs within Canada.

TL DR: Ergo, these political ads, these marginal cultural issues. Its a circus. Its a distraction, because our politicians are far too cowardly or inefficient to actually address the structural problems facing Canadians today. When you confuse the priority of your issues, when you place marginal cultural ones that may not even be being accurately viewed as your prime concern, and continue to let major economic issues fester and rot, you really are abandoning the concept of good governance, and simply descending into trying to exploit progressive populism to claw onto an abuse of power for just a little bit longer.

 

[TurdFondler]

Personally I think politicians are just so completely divorced from reality they have no idea what's important. They're all rich, grew up rich and not a single one of them has worked an honest day in their lives. They get caught up in these morality crusades because it's important politically, like you said. They're completely ignorant to blue collar needs especially since most votes are basically worthless.

No matter why, you're right about the circus. No one is willing to even risk bad optics by championing reforms that wouldn't sit well with the ruling class. Not a single one of them has enough spine to do anything.

 

[Sweetpeaa]

Sort of off topic but exactly what has kept Justin Trudeau in the closet for so long?

when I heard the ''gay lisp'' from him back in 2014 (this is when he was getting ready to run as PM) I knew something was up.

Can anyone in their right mind really buy that this guy is straight and sleeps in the same bed as his wife where they have heterosexual relations? come on.

Canada is not at all ready for a faggot PM, I mean, one that's out of the closet.

Is anyone else having a hard time looking for a doctor that can actually speak English? There’s no doubt in my mind that the high number of them non white doctors are contributing to the ever increasing instances of medical malpractice/negligence. Doesn’t help that they’re being covered by a government backed organization:

It’s honestly horrifying

Depends on where you live, but not sure how significant said problem is to be honest. Whether its English with an accent or not, I think most doctors in Canada speak English, no?

Markham, Mississauga, or Burlington eh?

I wouldn't worry too much if its surgery, everything has to be in writing and approved by other doctors as well.

My ire at pajeets extends more to how conveniently exploited the students are, and how theyre grossly overrepresented in tech, to the point of there actually being legitimate favoritism in hiring if they have influence in the hiring managers. On language, I don't usually see too many problems with them

Pajeets practice in-group hiring. My recent 7/11 got an assistant pajeet manager and over half the staff are indians now. And this is in an overwhelmingly white rural town.

If they can hire a pajeet they will.
