Canada is a failed state

[y a t s]

I was thinking about how fucking stupid carbon tax really is when you think about it for more than a second. I mean, excess carbon is the unavoidable byproduct of burning fuel, which is a necessity for literally everything needed to keep people fucking alive. Maybe I'm the retard here but it's just so absurd to arbitrarily tax essential industries like agriculture, electricity, transportation, sewage treatment etc basically because Liberals don't like how chemical reactions work.

Let's take this a step further: Government will rifle through everyone's medical records to get an estimated height, weight, and activity level. They will use this information to calculate roughly how much carbon dioxide you've exhaled in the current fiscal year, and penalize you with a "carbon tax" accordingly. You know, because it's necessary to fight climate change. Get on it Turdeau, you've had a few policies that were unironically even dumber than this.

What really gets my goat is all the money you see going to wind farms that take up vast amounts of agricultural land, particularly in the eastern provinces. Provinces on our east coast don't get earthquakes like they do out west, so building a few small nuclear reactors instead of these loud, space wasting wind farms makes infinitely more sense to me. Plus, reactor maintenance creates a whole bunch of skilled jobs and would be a boon for the economy in provinces that historically have required big subsidies. Imagine if the eastern provinces could prosper from selling excess energy they create down to places like Vermont.

Canada is already net zero if you include the vast stretches of forest we didnt raze unlike the US, Europe, and Asia.

I used to do a lot of offshore crypto trading and never declared any of it. I used to feel "bad" but you have to consider what the Canadian banks are doing. What kind of country has ads by monopoly banks about its foreign slave population being allowed to suck money back from their host country to their home country? They don't give a fuck about a lack of reinvestment? If the Liberals are OK with the jeets sending all their money back you should feel zero guilt for doing anything offshore yourself.

Young Canadians compete with capital that was untaxed and obtained through nefarious means abroad which was sent to Canadian banks to launder into the housing market and they expect you to be fine with it.

so building a few small nuclear reactors

fully financialized, rent seeking economies cannot build nuclear power plants. they require multiyear investment and planning and the payoff period is somewhere around 40 years. a natural gas peaker plant gets investors their money back within 5. there's a reason why only russia and china are left building large nuclear plants and not any countries that have followed in america's footsteps in deindustrializing.

We don't even need nuclear power in Eastern Canada. There is more than enough hydro potential in Quebec and Labrador to power the eastern provinces. Construction just needs to be properly managed so it doesn't turn into a government boondoggle as it has in the past.

I always thought Jacobin was a communist rag, but I guess they are just another neoliberal rag, although most communists just spend their time being useful idiots for neoliberals these days.

What I love about all the Canadian subreddits is how every issue is always the fault of a Conservative premier.

Justin and Jagmeet dump three trillion jeets into Ontario and it's Doug Ford's fault the healthcare, roads, schools, municipal services, etc... can't keep up.

Justin and Jagmeet dump three trillion jeets into BC and guess who's fault it is? Believe it or not, also Doug Ford.

When some flat Earth antivaxxer or biblethumper is leading the polls they need to understand how the population finds that religion more palatable than the failed religion of neoliberal third world body dumping.

You should research the Ontario PCP party. They're not a conservative party. They're a liberal party. Mike Harris basically restructured the PCP's in Ontario and he used to be a liberal cabinet member. They're very different from the other conservative parties in other provinces. They have no conservative policies, just neoliberalism. They are the most similar conservative provincial party to the federal liberals.

Doug and Justin and pretty good friends.

Yeah but imagine if it was a net exporter of energy? That'd not only help the provinces they were built in but could drive down electricity bills countrywide.

It's so fucking shameless lmao.

Worse is how smug these shitskins are. They act so high and mighty like they smarter than the white people who have made everything. "Saaar we highest earners in America" even though they most likely not qualified for role. All fucking shitting on discussion on their kike like behavior by saying oh get gud skills.

And are you all that surprised? These people believe in karma, that your fate is predetermined and you deserve the bad stuff that happens to you. Those bastards no doubt think you deserve to be shit on; and what does your society, your government do? It rewards their shit, nepotistic behavior. Jeets think they've have pulled the greatest con in world history.

And mostly the biggest con on themselves because it only works so long as there are enough competent people to cover their asses or willing to make excuses. Everything will collapse around them once things reach critical mass and they will have nary a clue why. It's important to note that the average national IQ of India is 76 (138th in the world); 70-79 is borderline impaired and given that India isn't exactly sending us its finest, we are importing retards for menial jobs. I had a cashier at Dollarama who couldn't even count change.

Went to Staples recently to print some documents, and was having some massive retardation being unable to transfer my document from the usb-drive to the printer.

I had asked 5 different Indian people to help, each and every one of them to follow on screen instructions, I swear to Christ I have been, they wouldn't even approach the printer, they all huddled up at the front desk speaking Punjabi and having a great time. There were two older white ladies trying to print off some paperwork as well and I had too help them.

I've never had to speak to a manager before, but this was kinda insane. They don't even know how to do work they are assigned too. After I got their manager Sukhdip out, he repeated did you follow the on screen instructions. That was the moment I had lost all hope.

Ended up going to a printshop nearby, they grabbed my usb, plugged it into their PC, and printed immediately. I was just thankful we have a honkey old timey printing store here that isn't a massive conglomerate

I honestly never saw myself hating leftists/liberals as much as I do and I don't know another time I've ever actually legitimately hated a group of people to a point it's probably classified as a hobby for me now. Sure, I dislike troons and the gender wars but they seem to be just a symptom of the problem as the actual problem are the leftists that blindly promoted it.

I've just never known a more brain broken self absorbed group of people in my life. When I debate a Conservative, they more or less try to appeal to your empathy. For example, "think of the children!" "protect/respect seniors!" etc. When I debate a Liberal, they immediately go for the jugular that any disagreement is erasure of human beings which basically means you're Hitler. Therefore, everything you say has no inherent value to them and they don't actually need to entertain a debate regardless of where it takes place. They will have veiled threats and insults sprinkled throughout. They use the academic vernacular passed down in leftists spaces to attempt to undermine the other person's intelligence.

They really love attacking normal folks on local social media as well. They are not at all too good for Facebook even though Zuckerberg is awful. That is where they can target average suburban moms and boomers and just folks who normally would be commenting on posts about lost cats or sharing their favourite place to buy some special item. This is where they can fulfill a confirmation bias when a boomer slips up and accidentally uses the wrong words to complain about a local crackhead who stole his lawn mower. Boomer will be denigrated so far in such an onslaught of bullshit vernacular he has no choice but to delete his post and question if his neighbors can be trusted anymore. The suburban mom gets pushed out of PTA meetings because word spreads she's a hateful bigot.

Yet, there's this shortage across social services, not just on a government level, but certainly in volunteer positions or grass roots organizations because they don't actually do anything. They just use the issue, let's say the homeless, to be able to make themselves feel better by guilting others but never contribute in a meaningful way. If leftists primarily worked in these fields to the point there was an over abundance they could easily stand on a soap box and point the finger at us but it's literally the fucking Spiderman meme right now.

I'm not even a Conservative but I'm pretty sure the Liberals completely fucked this country because it was one thing to have a pipe dream of the boomers dieing off so we could all prosper but they created a whole new generation that has another 40 years to carry this rhetoric with them. It's not just vote out Trudeau and it might be okay. The individualism is too entrenched in the fabric of society now and we did not recover from the collective trauma of the pandemic as a country. All of these entitled warriors will carry a legacy with them that's always going to be there because the sunk cost investment is too high now. Whatever we knew as Canada pre-2005 will never exist again - it's almost like round two of the "founding" of the country whether through literal means by way of immigration or metaphorically through accepted identity or culture of a new "Canadian" collective belief.

Cousin of mine went into ScotiaBank to talk to a banker about investing some funds he'd saved up. Got to talk to a Jeet financial advisor. Guy had his own office too. (Or maybe they swap them out.)

During the conversation the Jeet casually let slip him and his family were living in a government supported housing. Aka super cheap rent.

This asshole is A: a fairly new immigrant, and B: a fucking banker and he's somehow allowed, (probably lied or committed immigration fraud) to live in subsidized housing while Canadians die in the fucking streets?

Cousin wants to find a way to secretly report the Jeet to his regional subsidized housing authority.

Fuck this country.

I try not to pay attention to Canadian news as it'll give me ulcers, but TikTok is blowing up about parliament allegedly being shut down until charges against the liberals get addressed, is there any truth to this?

Since no one mentioned it yet, things are getting spicy in the House of Commons now that speaker Greg Fergus paused all government business until the Liberals hand over all documentation regarding Sustainable Development Technology Canada to the RCMP. The TL;DR version of events is the LPC and their friends have been misusing funds to their benefti to the tune of at least $300 million and outright defying parliament by refusing to provide the (unreacted) documents. My read of events is similar to Northern Perspective's; Fergus isn't doing this because he wants to, but because the opposition will move to replace him if the Speaker is seen to be siding with the government. This will make things worse for the LPC as a hostile speaker will hinder their agenda.

However, it gets worse. The Bloc has moved its ultimatum to Friday (tomorrow), otherwise it will work with the other opposition parties to topple the government. I imagine that the NDP will eventually succumb as their financial situation is not going to improve in the short term and sticking with the scandal-prone LPC is not helping the party's tattered reputation. Jagmeet might find his balls and say "fuck it" because some polls show the NDP pulling ahead of the Liberal though I doubt he will keep his seat.

SDTC is going to be Trudy's downfall. He can eat shit.

Those Financial advisors are basically the retail wagies of White collar work. You are correct the office in the branch are likely shared.

And you still need some sort of degree to get one of those jobs.
