Canada is a failed state

[Ser Prize]

Housing Minister Sean Fraser announced new immigration measures today. The measures are as follows:

1. For those who applied for a startup visa, can get open work permit for themselves and their families while their PR is in process.
2. People in STEM occupations can move to Canada without a job offer for six months and if you find a Job offer, you can get PR pathway/Open Work permits
3. Canada to allow People with H1B status in the USA to migrate here
4. Global Talent Work permits will be issued under two weeks
5. Digital nomad visa for anyone to experience Canada.

There is also a new 3-year 'temporary' measure allowing temporary foreign workers to enroll in study programs with no limit on the length of the program without a study permit.

Fuck this country right into the ground. I want it to crash and burn.

This makes me want to fedpost.

Some of these are hilarious.

Come to Canada with no source of income, or prospects...pretty please?
Hey, H1Bs want to live in a place where you'll make less money, pay more taxes, have a lower quality of life, and work for a company with no prestige?

This is starting to reek of desperation. The only businesses brown people start are 7/11s and Subways. Stop pretending you're going to attract the next Elon Musk. Regardless of your opinion of the man. On that note, remember when Canadian media used to claim Musk was Canadian, because he used Canada to hop to the US?

And to think Scarborough was featured in Rush's song "Subdivisions".

I don't want to imagine which part of Toronto mimic Detroit, Chicago or Gary, Indiana.

Whitbys pretty close to Gary, IN

Surely attempting to drive down the wages of the people in one of the only industries left where they can still afford a house is a good idea.

Any Canadian talented in STEM who is capable goes to America already.

I'm absolutely confident this is just the latest, most absurd effort yet by the federal government to keep the housing bubble and thus the ponzi scheme that is the Canadian economy expanding. A sign the end is near?

I'm in this position. Immigration viasa are difficult, travel visas are easy, which they'll throw mostly to the pajeets, niggers, and sand niggers for diversity points. The travelers (work visa only) are leaches, which only makes it harder to get in. I'm one of the only non-chinese people in my field, and I'm worried about getting out. A PhD does;t get you a visa. I'm mostly white, so fuck me, eh Biden.

I pray for the day of the rake and the stroke.

Signed booze. Sorry if it shiposty

Anyone know how to start american immigration? Got any american women who need husbands? I want out.

I promise to vote republican and shoot lots of guns. We're desperate.

 

[Audit]

Hmm, US should end Canadian immigration if these Canadian pajeet immigration policies go through. Canada's going to be a revolving door of shitskins using it as a stepping stone.

I say you Americans start up that whole Manifest Destiny thing again and annex us. You can't be much worse than the dipshits we currently have in charge, we have a low enough population overall we probably wouldn't tip the Electoral College enough to matter, and it'd mean Alaska would finally be connected to the rest of the not-Hawaii states.

We're California-level population with a 60-90% authoritarian population. You make us a territory or else you become drug/aids-empire, aka California nationwide. We'd defininately screw the electoral college. Poach the smart ones then turn the rest into lebensraum.

Mississippi is a red (fronald toompf) state.

Mississippi is Mississippi. The republican party doesnt automatically make a place look like Dallas. Youre not going to be that badly off anyway. Youll look like a used up husk in the midwest first.

Was in Toronto this weekend and it was so fucking gay (first time in 2 years).

I mean that quite literally, gay flags everywhere.

As someone who was once in the left, it just strikes me as so dumb and stick up the ass.

At the friendly injection site, theres tons of homeless encamped out and it actually shocked me/reminded me of skid row (was in California for awhile). What the fuck happened to this city?

And to top that off, gay flags around the safe injection sites.

It just seems so fucked up to me;

The liberal-NDP alliance isn't able to or doesnt want to give the homeless jobs, isnt able to or doesnt want to give them housing, so instead "heres a spot for you to shoot up, problem apparently solved".

When you point this out "nono, were trying, its just a very slow process" - when literally more people become homeless than new jobs or houses appear. If 20 people lose their jobs and wind up on the street every month, but you build a house in a former office building for 2 people in a 6 month period, its pretty easy to do the math and realize that youre failing. Its like trying to close someone's slit throat with a bandaid, but yay liberals I guess.

Something is seriously wrong with the system up here. I wish our priorities were getting jobs for the locals (as opposed to people who require sponsorships) or housing for them. Our economy isnt catered towards native born people, but instead its like a casino for foreigners to come into, while we literally rot.

And all amid this, pride flags. I hope the gays are happy, because pride and the lgbt flag is going to become associated hand in hand with the excesses of champagne democratic-socialism, and when were ashamed of that in 20 or so years time as a nation, well- we have a convenient flag that was also associated with the period too. "you may be homeless and shooting up heroin, but at least theres a gay flag above your injection site". Just a spit in the face really.

Also, injection sites dont work. If you have a homeless camp of 100+ people and 2 injection sites, where are the homeless going to go after they shoot up? Their non-existent apartments? You think theyre going to stay in an injection site for hours with other addicts banging on the doors? No ma'am, theyre going to be wandering the streets, drugged out, and sometimes violent. No wonder noone wants to walk around certain neighborhoods, fucking retarded progressives.

We'll take the prairie provinces but I'd rather eat a gun than admit Ontario, BC, or Quebec into the Union.

It's still pretty sweet in rural Alberta, if anyone wants a place for a last stand, or to wait it out until your emigration paperwork is in order.

Now that Danielle Smith won the last election, AB/SK are a bit of a redoubt, for a few years at least. I'm stuck here caring for elders who can't go and dealing with a complex estate, so I'm enjoying my time in the most reactionary pockets of Canada.

I have yet to see an irl rainbow this month. In the last year I've seen a 6'3" tranny Indian working the till at a Dollar Tree but that's about the worst of it. (My kid: "Why does that lady sound like a man?", I thought it was nice he had a job).

Online life is a disaster, but I can mostly keep it away from my small child for now, and every day I maintain his innocence is a day to fortify him against what is to come. It took me some time but I've made local friends who think I'm the soft lib for having only <redacted> number of guns and too many books lol.

Anyways, if you work online (or in the trades) give it some thought. Reach out if you want some info, I wish my fellow leaf kiwi farmers the best.

The world’s wokest country is leaving Britain’s economy in the dust​

A dose of ultra-liberal realism could solve the UK’s stagnation

Slashing public spending. Tearing up our arbitrary net zero targets. Privatising healthcare, liberalising planning, deregulating our labour market. These may be desirable policies that could get the British economy growing again, breaking us out of the doom-loop of stagnation, rising taxes and higher inflation – but they would be very difficult to implement.

Yet we may not need such a radical agenda to turn the UK economy around: currently, even Justin Trudeau’s ultra-woke Canada is beating us on growth. With moderate reforms in just a few areas, particularly climate change, we could significantly improve our performance.

There are plenty of countries the UK could take inspiration from as it searches for a model of growth. Singapore, with its 17pc corporation tax rate and open business environment. Or the US, with its lower tax burdens and huge technology industry.

The trouble is, those are far too extreme for many British voters (and, for that matter, MPs). Adopting a raft of policy ideas from either country will quickly be dismissed by a political and financial elite that is terrified of appearing “reactionary” or “populist”. But perhaps, and somewhat incredibly, there is another country that we could usefully take as a role model: Canada.

Sure, Trudeau’s government rarely misses an opportunity for sanctimonious virtue-signalling. No one could possibly describe it as “far-right”. It has introduced gender-neutral uniforms in the armed forces and experimented with decriminalising hard drugs.

But look at its economic figures. This year, Canada will be the second-fastest growing economy in the G7 after the US, and it will hold onto that slot next year, before moving up to first place in 2025, according to economic forecasts compiled by Bloomberg. Its GDP is expected to increase to 2.3pc in 2025, compared with around 1pc here.

Projected growth 2023 (May forecast)

Canada’s stock market has outperformed all its major rivals since 2021. It is experiencing population growth and close to record-low levels of unemployment. At 4.4pc, inflation is running at half our rate, and its GDP per capita is $58,000, compared to the UK’s $54,000. And despite high levels of spending during the pandemic, its debt to GDP ratio is relatively low.

The UK’s just pushed through the 100pc barrier, with expectations it will continue to rise. Canada has plenty of challenges, but its economy is performing far better than ours.

There are many reasons why Canada is booming, but one is fracking, which has been outlawed here. Far from loosening rules, Labour is planning a complete ban on new licences for conventional drilling in the North Sea should it come to power next year.

Canada has developed a successful shale gas sector – it was the first country outside the US to see large-scale development of shale resources.

It has long provided support to the oil and gas industry. Indeed, investment in the industry is expected to rise by another 11pc this year, according to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, and demand is still high.

Calls for a windfall tax last year, meanwhile, were immediately rejected by Trudeau’s government for fear they would do more harm than good. Such arguments were dismissed in Britain, which now has a headline tax rate on North Sea oil and gas of 75pc. Investment has fallen, career opportunities gone. Offshore Energies UK have warned that Labour’s ban would lead to 45,000 job losses and a 60pc drop in domestic production.

While the commitment is certainly there to combat climate change – indeed, their government seemingly never misses an opportunity to sign up to the newest target at the latest global conference – it perhaps is more realistic than we are here.

Only a couple of areas are attempting to mandate heat pumps. While Canada is aiming to achieve a net-zero economy by 2050, it has so far taken a less cavalier attitude towards imposing extreme costs on businesses and households.

Perhaps its government has in mind estimates that Canada’s natural gas production would plunge by 37pc-68pc by 2050, according to some estimates, if the country reached its emissions goal, which would risk upending the nation’s long-term LNG export aspirations.

2904 losing pressure north sea

Or take immigration. Canada has embarked on a huge expansion of its population, welcoming half a million newcomers last year, a similar number to the UK on a per capita basis. And yet it also has a points-based system, intended to attract people with valuable skills.

Further, the Fraser Institute’s latest Economic Freedom report gives Canada a higher score on regulation, and legal systems and property rights. In the overall rankings, it comes in 16th place to the UK’s 22nd.
Britain desperately needs to work out how to start growing its economy again. We are fast becoming an international outlier, with one of the highest rates of inflation in the developed world. Mortgage rates hikes could threaten thousands with repossession. Wages are stagnant, often falling in real terms. Taxes have risen to 70-year highs.


Many will still hope that Britain can become Singapore-on-Thames, with a radically low-tax, deregulated economy. But we need a dose of realism, and who knew it could come from ultra-liberal, woke Canada.
We certainly wouldn’t want to mirror all the country’s policies – it has a corporation tax rate of 38pc, for a start (although there is a 10pc rebate on income earned in Canadian provinces).

But we could stop posing and start drilling: in 2013 the British Geological Survey estimated that the Bowland, a thick seam of shale across Lancashire and Yorkshire, could alone yield up to 13,000 billion cubic metres of natural gas.
Had we extracted just 10pc, we could have heated homes for around half a century. Instead of relying on expensive imports and driving up bills, we could frack. And we could do that by pointing to Trudeau’s Canada.

Britain must be a Mad Max hellscape then, because Canada's per-capita GDP is absolutely trash.

Look I'll take what I can get - we prairie provinces are used to being ignored federally anyway, probably won't make a difference where our taxes go. Besides, the USD is still better than the CAD, ever with people talking about dedollarization.

You could probably steal the Northern Territories without anyone noticing - when's the last time anyone heard anything from them? And again, would technically link Alaska to the rest of you.

 

[wry wrangler]

The authors of that article must be ignorant or on some kind of Chinese super-fentanyl because everyone knows Canada's 'growth' is fictional paper growth driven solely by the real estate bubble. All measures of real growth are flat or down sharply.

Turns out the only thing keeping Britain from being a shit hole was Polish plumbing. Now with Brexit all the Poles have gone back to the EU. Their PM is Apu 8 legged elephant god and all. Obviously things are fucked.

As for Ontario is a haves not province in a have lots world. Fucking Newfies are better off those fuckers sacrificed the Cod to the gods in exchange for Oil. What does Ontario have to sacrifice any hope of the Stanley Cup going up North again.
