CITIZEN_2015

Prostitution (the oldest profession) was not eliminated but pushed underground. Anything pushed underground involves gangs and violence. More violence against women as based on bill C-36, the pimps (the real criminals) can pose easily as security guards and drivers and escape justice.

God forbid, eventually we agreed on something!!!!!!.

After months and years of being under attack by the regime of Islamic Republic and its proxies, Israel late tonight attacked military targets in Iran which is a country of 85 million taken hostage past 45 years by a bunch of murderous terrorists, namely Islamic Republic. The Israeli air attacks are currently in progress as we speak/ Initial reports indicate that the military centers of mercenary Revolutionary Guards terrorists IRGC are currently under precise Israeli surgical attacks. Loud explosions being heard all over Tehran. At this stage it is not clear how widespread the attack is or what other cities besides Tehran have been the target of Israeli retaliation. Under pressure from Biden Administration, oil and nuclear facilities are excluded in THIS attack. I do hope no civilian casualties on this defenseless nation who are now caught between two enemies, the Israelis and the evil Islamic Republic.

When it comes to immigration and national interests PP is slightly better than Liberals but he is worse in other aspects like Harper he likely wishes to satisfy religious right so he may introduce and pass reactionary backward legislations or laws like banning pornography, banning abortions, banning doctor assisted suicide like Harper did in 2014 making consenting sex between adults (when material or money is exchanged) illegal (a criminal offense) to get the vote of reactionary religious right. Ever since 2014 based on Harper's law if you take your girlfriend to a dinner or buy her gift or jewelry and then have sex with her in your bedroom you can go to jail thanks to Harper and his idi*t injustice minister at the time. They rushed this bill (C-36) through Parliament at the end of 2014 abusing their majority and in a tricky manner passed it through to secure their 10% vote in the soon to come elections of 2015.

Well the government must not look other way. There are records as when their visa expires and law enforcement must knock on their doors and arrest and deport them like any other criminal. But my point was that they shouldn't have been given an entry visa at the first place unless they could prove beyond doubt that they will return after expiry of their visa. They have a life like hell like this with no work permit, no health protection, no driver's license better off to go back and return legally for them and us,

Market decides how many homes to build not us but we or our elected government decides on the demand side by significantly reducing the new arrivals of all kinds.

You are twisting my comments. I never said government should be building housing. This was not the point of my criticism and you know it. I said stop or reduce significantly immigration and new arrivals of all kind until housing gets better. In other words, I said government must address the demand side of equation not supply as you distorted my saying. Typical of leftists to distort and twist,

I am not sure how it works. If they overstayed their welcome then they are illegal here with no work permit, no job, no health card so how they can survive? Even people with all of above have hard time surviving. Canada used to be very severe in granting visa to foreigners before. They have to prove or convince immigration officers that they have no intention of staying in Canada after the expiration of their visas. What happened?

Not sure where you got this statistics from, but housing starts in 2023 was 240 thousand which is about 10 year average, https://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/media-newsroom/news-releases/2024/housing-starts-down-2023-from-2022 Data for latest month (last month) indicates housing starts of 235 thousand.

It is a simple matter of supply and demand. I thought they teach this in high schools. Significantly more demand for housing by new immigrants in short time while new housing construction can't keep up causes housing shortage and significant increase in rents and housing prices that we have witnessed past few years. For health and education being squeezed just visit a hospital or school. You will see many new arrivals. I went to renew my Health card. A long lineup, many new immigrants speaking their own language. May be by 60% even,

While Trudeau government created housing crisis in Canada and our health and educational services overwhelmed by inflow of millions of immigrants during his 9 year government, today he admitted his mistake by cutting immigration levels by 20%. It will come down to just under 400K next year and to 365K by 2027.

Yes absolutely and less. You don't bring in homeless people to your home when you don't have enough beds and food for your own family. Trudeau government really screwed up by importing 500,000 new immigrants past few years causing a housing crisis, food shortage, overwhelmed health and education systems among other things in Canada. For this alone, this government must be voted out. Today, Trudeau admitted his mistake by cutting immigration by merely 20% to just under 400,000 next year and gradually down to 365K by 2027. While people born and long time citizens tax payers for years and decades are struggling with housing, bills, and lack of essential services, this Liberal government still plans to import 1.5 million new immigrant over the next 4 years, most of them from third world countries requiring medical educational and other services while there is not enough services or houses for Canadians. Not acceptable.

Sinwar was sent to hell. Well done Israel. Now is time for Israel to go after the head of octopus in Tehran. For as long as we have a coward in Washington. this is not very likely but when Trump comes in 3 months then Israel must do same with the leaders of Islamic Republic or they will never rest in peace.

You are lying about just speaking about your beliefs. You do much more than that. In your threads that you opened, you demanded that the government bans doctor assisted suicide and totally bans abortion. You want to impose your beliefs on the rest of citizens and restrict their lives.

I have been living in Canada most likely longer than you have been and nobody here in this advanced society likes you or your backward attitudes so why don't you get the hell out of Canada.

I may not fit your definition of a white Canadian (though skinwise I yet to see any skin whiter than mine) but equally worried about immigrants from third world, especially middle east and Africa when I see recent events. I also worried about people coming here as guests but trying to change the way of living or impose their culture upon others. I am very worried about future Canada when I see what has happened in Europe when certain population has grown too rapidly. I am also sad about those who were born here but can't afford to rent a proper house, find proper jobs or buy groceries (white or otherwise). People who have been living here for decades and have paid taxes for decades and helped build this country and in their old age have to wait for surgeries and hospitals while new comers from third world never contributed to this country take the beds and appointments and affordable or subsidized houses.

You have the right to talk about your beliefs and equally I have the right to talk against it. None of us has the right to take action against the other or try to impose his beliefs on the others.

Means it is between you and your God. None of my business to believe in what you believe.

You should add some kind of sign or symbol in your previous post so people know you are joking. religion is private and a choice. Those who wish to mix it with politics are after tyranny.

Not sure if you are serious but if you are serious then go back to the place you come from. where they have Sharia laws where women and minorities have no rights. You came here swearing to obey the constitution and respect the law and culture in this country. I hope we have a government with enough balls to deport those who don't obey or disrespect or wish to change the culture here. GO BACK.

You forgot the most important one. They must stop immigration or reduce it to minimal. Stop immigration from Islamic countries, India/Pakistan and Africa. But I don't think they will do that.

Trudeau should step down to give Liberals a chance. No matter how great campaigner he might be the best he can put a dent in conservative support to prevent a majority conservative government but people will not forget that it was his immigration policy that created severe housing shortage and explosive prices so that most people having a good paying job but cannot afford to buy or rent and are accumulating debt. But if he is replaced, the new leader can claim he is his own guy and distant himself from Liberal's failed policies. They stand a chance to form a minority government at best.

Your kind has caused centuries of misery, war, hate, abuse on the human race, You interpret the bible or any other allegedly sent by God book to your advantage to impose your evil deeds to your advantage, Many facts are in the history the manner in which the church headed by your type establishing tyranny and claiming to speak on behalf of Jesus spread war and hate, abuse women and children and murder and stole from the poor to increase their belly fat. They still do in many [arts of the world. It is not God or bible or Jesus I am against. It is you and your kind. God save us from religious fanatics takeover. We stand on guard for thee.

Given equal opportunity, woman though on average physically weaker but are a lot smarter and in both heats and brain (and looks) department are superior to men. Damn any stupid ideology which deprived them of equal rights.

Remove the head of octopus and the legs will die soon but jeep cutting the legs killing many women and children in the process, the octopus will grow new legs.
