Canada is a failed state

[Purple Francis]

Which is why it's frustrating to hear all these retards talking about prices as though they're the result of actual shortage and not just a deliberate sales bottleneck. Without punishment for sitting on overpriced properties, any new 'affordable' homes will go straight into the clutches of the realtors. "Gee maybe now that DeBeers has opened a new diamond mine, the price of diamonds will drop!"

Building fuckloads of cheap as shit tiny ass apartments to create an easily obtainable floor for housing would put a huge dent in homelessness, let young people thrive by not being shackled with 2000+ rents, and cause real estate prices to at least follow inflation rather than outpace it, or even better, cause it to drop. But the neoliberal oligarchy won't, because fuck you give us money rentpiggy. The conservative won't, because xwitter told them it's "pod living". And the leftist won't, because it's on unsceded chug land and is not BIPOCLGBTQ+ inclusive enough.

It would work, and it would benefit and lift up society. Go to Japan, you can rent dirt cheap dorm-style homes for nothing. It's just a small private room with some amenities as shared spaces. I stayed in one for one leg of my journey; it's not luxury living, but it's living. I think I saw maybe 2 homeless people during my visit to Tokyo, and my understanding is that buying a home is well within the average working Japs means. A lot of the wests problems are easily solved with our excess of wealth and resources but those in power don't give a fuck about uplifting the general populace. I fucking hate it here. I hate seeing my friends and loved ones suffer at the hand of a government that's indifferent at best, and malicious at worst.

Canada is outgunned, outclassed, and turbo-cucked. "New Canadians" will do fuck all when it comes to service except become "refugees" to other white countries, and the logistics system is borked. A few exploded railways and some well-placed blockades and urban bugmen are going to start missing meals.

They're already missing meals and it's due to "So called Patriotic Canadian Monopolies" like Loblaws

Funny how all the reddit tier #BoycottLoblaws stuff went away when the threat of tariffs arrived.

And yet, when I tell American leftists how shit our situation is, they always just respond with "Hurr durr free healthcare". It's infuriating.

Canada Post union calls for overtime ban as company, workers fail to reach agreement

OTTAWA — The union representing about 55,000 Canada Post employees has called for a countrywide overtime ban, saying its negotiators will continue to review the latest offers from the mail carrier.

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers says members are being called on to refuse any work beyond eight hours in a day and 40 hours in a week.

The news comes as CUPW was set to be in a legal strike position as of midnight.

It also comes after an evening meeting between the two sides that happened at the union's request.

The union says the overtime ban will go into effect unless Canada Post agrees to a two-week "truce" prior to midnight that the corporation had previously rejected.

The union says it is still going over the offer proposed on Wednesday and decided to proceed with an overtime ban to "minimize disruptions to the public and lost days to members."

This report by The Canadian Press was first published May 22, 2025.

ayy lmao

Also Canada post going on strike for like the 3rd time in a one year period is a pretty accurate depiction of the country at large

Literally striking themselves out of a fucking job. Only people I know who rely on snail mail are boomers who refuse to get their pension payments setup as direct deposits.

Americans are fundamentally ignorant to Canadas issues and their opinions on us can be safely ignored 100% of the time.

Now here's the kicker that makes the whole thing especially funny. Those same leftist Americans I speak with say they want to move to Canada (fuck trump yadda yadda). I'm trying to tell them their life will be significantly worse, but they are incapable of seeing Canada's issues. Canada, to them, is this mystical Lefty Paradise where fags frolic in beautiful forests and land is abundant and all races and ethnicities mix without issue. I'm sure this way of thinking is extremely prevalent with many leftist Americans.

They're making shipping container houses in Toronto, I just hope it's the liberal voters that are forced to live there.

The seniors will be the Indian parents their spawn abandon in hospital, like that one user here mentioned. Not white people. They won't even get to live in these, they will get nothing.

Burgers see we don't have their specific problems and assume we're a utopia. I mean, I'm glad we don't have half the serious problems Americans got, but we ain't no paradise that's for sure.

I don't think any English speaking western country truly has it good any more. UK, Canada and US suck balls, each with a distinct flavor of shittiness. I don't know enough about Australia to really say about them.

Aren't they also trying to out totalitarian the UK and Canada in their own ways too? New Zealand is going that same route too.

Canada can be a world leader says Mark Carney.

We don't even make robots, how are we a world leader? We are not technologically advanced. The Canadian economic model is entirely reliant on mass immigration for cheap labour.

Canadians are airheads.

Funnily enough, I don't know. I think I said that somewhere.

You are correct about that. If I remember correctly, they would send heavily armed police to confront families who dared to go to the beach during covid lockdowns, like they were some immense threat.

Also, Australia has big ass spiders so that is bad enough.

Canada apparently wants to join the Golden Dome.

Podlife will be a standard 4bed home illegally subdivided in to 20 sleeping areas with curtains and plywood. Jeets already live this reality.

Now that you mention - this is why they are the ideal bugmen (along with the chinks). Even if they don't necessarily know, there's billions of them (alongside the Chinese), and they can conquer the world through sheer "retard strength" - that unlike China - can be used through immigration. Now, China obviously is doing this the smart way, but India shouldn't be underestimated.

Not when 200 Portuguese guys managed to take over multiple Jeet cities.

You know Lord Myles project of recruiting men to invade Haiti, it would be more successful recruiting White Canadian men and invading Brampton.

Jeets are the weakest race (besides maybe Abos, who are just more retarded Dravidians)

I have to disagree, because who is between those cheap houses and apartments* and the buyers? The realtor racket, the same people that are sitting on 900sq.ft. literal trailer-park looking homes in Sudbury, Ontario because they won't accept less than 499k for one (absolutely true story btw). Houses aren't perishables and the pirates at ReMax and LePage are not going to dump housing on the market, because they overpaid for it and will be left holding the bag if prices drop. Imagine a crypto rugpull, but the people left holding the bag have big financial powers and can just insist that the value hasn't dropped.

*small apartments will absolutely turn into slums unless we have a drastic policy reversal, which would probably involve fixing housing prices anyways. We don't need our own jeet-infested Pruitt-Igoe, thank you very much.

Australians literally had holding camps for the unvaccinated. Also Politically they have labor and the liberals. Keep in mind the liberals of Australia are the more right leaning party but in practice they're similar to Canadas liberals.

They were in charge for a decade and destroy Australia, then labor were elected and are somehow worse. In Canadian terms it's as if the LPC were in charge for a decade and then the NDP got elected.

In Australia aren’t the (former) coalition which was called the Liberal-Nationals their Conservatives?

It’s like our Conservative party here calling themselves the Progressive-Conservatives

We have such a housing shortage that this would only serve to raise the pricing of all other houses. People pay the current pricing of housing because they have no choice. We won't be building pods in a number big enough to give use a housing surplus, so the pod developers can charge almost the same prices as the current smallest apartments, and the smallest apartments will then go up in price due to speculation. We're in an economy where real estate is speculative pricing, so if you create a smaller category of housing it will just take on the price of the existing smallest housing category, and everything else gets bumped up to the next tier of pricing. That has happened every time a new type of housing development comes out that promises smaller and cheaper housing.

The only way to get out of that cycle is if we can produce pods in a quantity the equivalent of 5% of all current housing within a few years, which is not going to happen.
