CITIZEN_2015

I care about all people not just Canadians though Canadians are my top priority. The color of passport doesn't matter to me. As I said 6 billion is a small portion of Canada's expenditure and while I agree it can do some good for Canadians though it can do a lot more good oversea can save much more lives. Canada's foreign aid is not about refugees bit helping people overseas.

You seem to be one of those who keep everything close to your chest enjoying life by yourself while the rest of the world is burning. Uncaring and unwilling to help out. Yeah it is so harmful to all of us to take 2 coffees a day instead of 3 and save lives or make lives overseas with the price of a coffee a day!!!!!. Really harmful to your type to see others prosper!!!.

We have debt to China, Iran, Syria, Russia.....? Really? These murderous regimes support each other as I mentioned before. We standing in their way does not change anything. Iran murderous regime for example survives because fucking Russian and Chinese regime dictators support them in any way they can. They could not care less about the people suffering under their regime. In turn Iran and Russia support Syria's dictator in any way they can so murderer Bashir Assad survives and the list goes on like a vision chain of murderers and dictators backing each other up.

And how on earth we are going to make the damn China to pay? Military threat? Threat of sanctions? Xi Jinping''s regime is a murderous uncaring regime and that is why they trade and help other murderous regimes like Iran and Syria so that they survive and commit more murderous acts against their own people. Russia is not any better if not worse.

What you have outlined takes 60 billion not 6 billion. I get you. We have to give priority to Canadians but the fact remains that this relatively small amount (relative to Canada's gross domestic product or even Canada's annual budget (expenditure) of over 350 billion dollars goes a long way overseas and makes a significant difference. Those Canadians who can afford it (a good majority) should also make private donations to charity work overseas and sponsor children for a price of a coffee a day. People overseas may not be Canadians but they are humans too and feel suffering and hunger and disease. It is our human responsibility to help a bit.

Canada's foreign aid is only 6 billion dollars a year. You are one of those who blames everyone else for their problems especially foreigners, immigrants and other citizens. When you are going to admit if you have misfortunes then it is your own fault and stop pointing fingers to others especially weaker defenseless people?

No I am a believer in people first, because this is what make a country and makes it great. The well being of citizens first and foremost and as I said we will take care of the debt when the storm is over and over time. You preferred that the debt was near zero but millions of Canadians starving or homeless unable to feed themselves and their children losing the homes and life but this is not what I wish. I prefer 300 billion or more in debt and we will pay it later. All these measures to help Canadians by Trudeau government are temporary measures. Debt will gradually disappear once this pandemic is over.

As devastating as it appears the Liberal government had no choice but to help Canadians in the time of Crisis. Yes this is in contrast to heartless conservatives in particular Harper and Kim Campbell however millions of Canadians lost their jobs and incomes during this pandemic and needed support to bring food to table and pay rent or mortgages. This is what any government with heart would have done for its citizens and this is what Trudeau government did too. Same deficit situation even worse in other industrialized countries like UK, US, France and others. I rather see Canadians supported at the time of crisis and continue to feed their families and children than a lower deficit. The deficit will come down soon. The measures taken were temporarily measures. Cerb and other pandemic related programs will expire soon. The economy is gradually opening up. Growth will come back to pre-pandemic levels. The deficit however must come down gradually. Surely but slowly not to cause hardship to the citizens. Conservative plans of eliminating this huge deficit rapidly would sink the slowly recovering economy back into depression and cause millions of Canadians severe hardship. Yes to Liberal plans and no to heartless conservative plans which hopefully will never be elected.

There are no rights for humans under islamic repunlic. In a letter to the head of the Islamic Republic's Judiciary on Monday, July 6, Amnesty International (AI) called for the immediate and unconditional release of a civil rights and a women’s rights activist. Saba Kordafshari, an activist who took part in s campaign against compulsory hijab was arrested in Tehran in August 2018 and transferred to Qarchak Prison a few days later. According to civil society activists, in the early days of her arrest, she was under intense pressure for a "television confession." https://en.radiofarda.com/a/amnesty-international-calls-for-immediate-release-of-anti-hijab-activist/30713952.html Immediately after her release, she revealed in a letter, "When I saw the situation of prisons closely, especially in Qarchak, I concluded...there are no rights for humans in Iran, let alone respecting human rights in prisons." Three months later, the Islamic Republic security forces arrested Kordafshari again, confiscating her cell phone, laptop, and other personal effects. "Saba Kordafshari's access to the medical care has been denied, which she requires for pre-existing gastrointestinal problems that have been exacerbated in prison and from which she is in pain, And while the nation lives in absolute poverty and unpaid wages, the islamic republic lawmakers get huge sums of wages. https://en.radiofarda.com/a/iranians-react-angrily-to-high-payments-to-lawmakers-/30714222.html

So you have chosen to come and live here and granted all the privileges and don't care about Canada's given privileges and care more about the old defeated empire who colonized half the world and suck their blood for centuries?

I was going to post a thread entitled Happy Canada Day as is did previous years, still the best country in the world that millions are line up to come in and live but I didn't think under the circumstances this year with thousands who lost their lives due to Covid-19 and tens of thousands losing their loved ones and millions losing their jobs would be appropriate.

You are like a Soviet historian and as Reagan said a good Soviet historian is the one who predicts the past accurately (they falsify the true event and turn around everything to turn own advantage). There are still videos of American leaving their dead and wounded and their Vietnamese colleagues who served them for decades and running away from Vietnam, throwing their arms and helicopters in the sea and the Vietcong taking over the entire country and now you the new historian declare that America won Vietnam war!!!!!!!!!!!. The world is a much better place without the dreadful Soviets and their corrupt murderous communist puppets and the West led by the US won the cold war. So hail to America in this regard but still that doesn't change the history and crimes they committed all over the world for decades.

Yes Vietnam is successful now because of the sacrifices they made against French and Americans and because they kicked them both out and they won the war otherwise they would be having a corrupt western puppet regime sucking the blood of its people. Chile for decades under an American puppet dictator was a military dictator and eventually they came out of it gradually but still not a democracy. Soviet Union like Russia today was a corrupt dictatorship who occupied half the Europe. They fall eventually just like all other dictators in other parts of the world. The Iran regime will fall the same way but the seeds the Americans planted in Iran in 1953 still is ruining the lives of that nation and many are in jails and under torture or awaiting executions. The Apes still ruling in Iran thanks to CIA coup and British imperialism.

What? US long history of crimes against other nations like Vietnam, South America, Cambodia, Iran, Chile and many more are wrong proof!!!!!!!!!. You are so illogical and in complete denial of the facts. If US is so powerful why they can't even control within their own borders? Covid-19 pandemic is the absolute worst in the US and so far has killed nearly 150,000 Americans and new cases increasing at a rate of 30,000+ a day.

Military confirms 40 per cent of COVID-positive troops deployed to long-term care homes were asymptomatic. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/coronavirus-pandemic-military-long-term-care-quebec-1.5629067 As CBC News reported earlier this month, the military itself had been testing only those troops deployed to long-term care homes who displayed symptoms of the virus. Asymptomatic military members were not proactively tested — except in cases where the long-term care homes themselves provided the screening. Is it that the life of seniors who made so much sacrifices for Canada does not matter to people? The word Travesty even does not go far enough to describe this

Peter MacKay the final nail in the coffin of the Conservative Party of Canada. I did not watch Conservative party debate as the conservatives have no chance of being elected. The bleak records of this party speaks for itself (Mulroney and his unpopular GST or the fact that he was the reason we almost lost our country with Quebec being pushed to separation by his failure) or Kim Campbell (who said to the army of unemployed in 1993 not to call her but she will call them in the year 2000), and Harper (running the most corrupt manipulative government in our history). It now appears an undemocratic guy by the name of Peter MacKay is the favorite to lead this party who was a major player in the previous corrupt , manipulative, full of scandals Harper government and the manipulative undemocratic manner he pushed the laws into parliament during his tenure. Peter MacKay's election as the leader will put the final nail in the coffin of the Conservative party of Canada.

I demanded at the beginning back in February to CLOSE the damn borders. Nobody listened and the government kept borders open until the pandemic took over Canada too, mainly by travelers back in February and March. As a result over 7000 Canadians died and now the pandemic is slowing BUT KEEP THE DAMN BORDERS CLOSED until there is a vaccine for this disease and most Canadians are vaccinated.

It appears the murderous Islamic regime has politically stabilized itself temporarily by the use of brutal force and mass murder and imprisonment of activists and intimidation for now. But the Islamic republic is a disease and the running organs like mullahs and the revolutionary thugs are like the viruses of that disease. The longer they remain the more the antibodies will be produced. Right now some two-third of population have become aware of the murderous nature of this regime and what it stands for. The percent and number is increasing every day as the regime has to use increasing violence and brutality in order to remain in power. So more and more will fall victims to this regime and the antibodies will one day soon overwhelm the viruses and the nation will come out again united and stronger and this time more aware and awaken.

Because the guy is totally out of his mind. He has the mind of a child. He is also all talk and no action. He has a few more months and then he will be buried in history books as a crazy President.

The original post is totally flawed. The Americas (the US) has done more crimes than any other continent. The US over decades have armed murderous dictators all over the world like South and Central America, Middle East, South East Asia. Remember Vietnam war when millions died because of US military interventions and murderous acts by US in there. Remember the coups when elected democratic nationalist governments were removed by US? like in Chile in 1973 and in Iran in 1953 and the latter still paying a high price for it by having a murderous regime taken over? And Middle East is at peace???!!!!. Middle East is the center of terrorism and is dominated by corrupt murderous regimes like those in Iran, Syria, Arabia, Israel and Iraq and many others.

The arbitrary arrest and torture of Iranian citizens by The most barbaric and hated occupying regime of islamic republic is not limited only to dual citizens and regime critics but this plague republic has a history of going against the brightest and most genius in the country and these are the most recent. https://en.radiofarda.com/a/astronomy-award-winning-student-arrested-in-iran-and-family-asks-why/30577400.html https://en.radiofarda.com/a/beaten-during-arrest-prominent-iranian-female-activist-on-hunger-strike/30439913.html The peaceful struggle by the nation of Iran against this murderous islamic regime will continue till this land of Aryans is freed from these subhuman mullahs who made the fictitious movies of the 70's "Planet of the Apes" a reality/

Iran nation is in dire conditions but they will survive and come out victorious at the end as their 25 century survival is an evidence of such prediction which includes many invasions by barbarians like Arabs 14 centuries ago, Moguls and finally Islamic clerical invasion 40 years ago. They all survive these disaster and Iran (Persia) still remains intact and solid and will over come this latest disaster (Islamic clerical coup) as well. The poor defenseless nation of Iran has been through so many disasters past 40 years starting with the Islamic clerical coup in 1979, New regime oppressions, Iraq invasion, mass executions, economic downturns, natural disasters like earthquakes and floods, sanctions, regime executions and tortures and lastly Coronavirus that they now have become resistance against the worse human disaster of the past century which is coronavirus. https://theprovince.com/opinion/lotfi-in-iran-covid-19-is-just-another-crisis-to-survive/wcm/eb9265ff-eace-4bf4-9052-4dfda303c69c

This show how little you know about this evil regime. They feed on hate and war ever since the clerical coup . They create enemies to survive. and they don't care how many will die. They are the ones who sent children to cross minefields and they are the ones who kill in thousands to survive like a virus. Much worse and more dangerous than coronavirus.

Correction. Iran regime has refused help. That is because they don't care less about their people. They only care about their own evil survival at any cost even if the whole nation dies.

Lift the US sanctions. Iranians are paying a heavy price for the regime's actions. They suffer from this brutal regime and at the same time they pay a price with US sanctions, At this time Coronavirus also has hit them hard mainly due to corrupt incompetent nature of this murderous regime. To ease the suffering due to the pandemic May be it is time that US sanctions against Iranian people should be lifted so that there would be one less pain this defenseless nation to have to deal with so that food and medicine urgently needed can flow again and not blocked by the banking system..
