I think there is only one problem called "unaffordability". It is likely many are on the verge of becoming homeless. Having those rules in place allows the non-paying tenants to still have a roof over their head at the expense of the (often very greedy and unreasonable) landlords.

OK, so he was admitted to Canada and lived some 70 years in this country where nobody ever questioned his past, when his past must have been known. Start with that. Now at 96 all hell breaks loose. Complete nonsense.

As I said , no evidence Mr.Hunka committed any crimes. Had anyone had the guts to defend a Canadian citizen, there would have been no reason for embarrassment and resignation. This is my take on it and I leave it at that. Or we continue to beat the old horse to death....

1. I implied that in general this is what would have happened. I have no way of knowing what happened to Mr. Hunka in particular and if he was faced with having to make such decisions himself. "a good place to start" LOL I like your humor ? 2. Poland just heard a member of the SS Nazi was found in Canada and jumped the gun in another symbolic gesture. If they had anything against mr.Hunka in particular they would have been looking specifically for him over the past , what 70 years?? The bottom line again is, we proved what kind of a highly discriminatory BS system we have right from the top down. Instead of defending a Canadian citizen who has been peacefully living in the country for nearly all of his adult life, we had to portray shame, apologize, condemn, ask people to resign and so on and so forth..........over nothing.

1. Yes 2. Do we know if Mr. Hunka killed any civilians? Where did "innocent till proven guilty" in our Western society go? Or you want to go by cowboy standards "shoot and ask questions later" ?

You know what? I do not know what the "Western soldiers" can or cannot do, but even assuming all of what you wrote is true, we were not discussing the options a present day "Western soldier" has. We were discussing the options of that 17 year old who joined the SS Nazi squad.

BS, BS and more BS my friend. You don't determine what is lawful or unlawful. You do not know who is on the other side of the wall. You are in it and the best you do is try to stay alive.

You are getting excited apparently but are still not convincing to me. "crimes" ? What crimes? You the army guy should know better. You got to war and you follow commands. You are not allowed to think and skip those orders you find inappropriate. This is how the system works. Was the guy who dropped the nuclear bomb over Japan a criminal that went to jail for life? How about all those fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, who ended up killing civilians and children? Once in a war , YOU ARE A CRIMINAL AND A HERO. Just depends on whose side you are on. And yes, age is of note as well. The criminal system takes age into consideration ; what you take or don't take into consideration - who cares?

i heard that too - only comes to prove Canada is not the only country having a ridiculously dis-functional government.

At 19 he knew what was right from wrong? Probably yes, and yes, there would be some 12 year olds capable of mass murder as we now have plenty of examples, nearly all of which come from our neighbor down south! Was this particular 19 year old one of them? Most likely not! Do you believe that the Nazi had thousands and thousands of brainwashed criminals? It would be like saying that their whole gene pool is garbage. If you are a 19 years old and with a gun to your head with your only option of doing what you are told or being killed yourself, it is not something you do by choice. You think those Ukrainians joined the Nazi with the only purpose of extirpating Jews, LGBTqs, ROMA and other minorities - you think this was the main selling point in the army? That guy may have genuinely believed he fought for Ukraine. As for the shame of letting him into Canada - if his past is again considered criminal, this was of course the main mistake. Now at age 98, I would definitely leave him alone. Too much other more important shit to dig into , than this!

I wonder what would have happened if she showed the kids the House of Commons giving a standing ovation to Mr. Hunka? Would this be considered inappropriate and would she be suspended for doing it? ?

My guess is no; providing my rational in the second thread. To moderators: maybe the two threads can be merged ?

On the outside, what I see is this. Trudeau legalizes drugs ; his wife starts a business manufacturing and selling drugs. Then they separate to make it look acceptable (as opposed to unacceptable). Some say the two will get together again, once Trudeau is voted out ; which would leave him managing a drug distribution empire. Isn't it Really embarrassing for a premier's wife to be manufacturing and selling opioids? Under any circumstances? She couldn't think of a better business or use of her time? F* Me !

I am sure Trump will beat them all. They will come in second, third and fourth position.

The whole situation is **-ic beyond belief. 1. Mr. Speaker is apparently oblivious of Hunka's past and never checks his background before putting his whole name and career on the line. Kind of gives a whole new meaning to the term "political suicide". 2. Everyone in the house is clapping hands (and turning themselves into ****** in the process , and rightly so) as nobody knows anything about this huge Ukrainian and Canadian hero 3. They immediately called the situation the greatest Canadian embarrassment and asked Mr. Rotta to resign because Hunka was a "Nazi veteran" Well, Hunka is 98 in 2023. The war for the Nazi ended in 1945. If you do the math the guy was likely 19 years old when the war ended !! What kind of a "veteran" and Nazi could he have been ???? So we have a rotten political system, a rotten medical system, a rotten immigration system, a rotten society. We can't meet any climate targets because we do not even try. We are an embarrassment all over - but here you go, let's blame it all on that 19 year old in 1945, now 98 year old, who may have a few more months or years to live. Let's show the world that we are really disfunctional all over. How pathetic!

Now you don't like the independent scientists. Which scientists will you trust? Only those on the payroll of Canadian Oil and Gas ? You and WesCanMan are so ripe , that I have to leave this forum for a month or two to clear my lungs. See you later.

And what did the actual scientists tell us? After this line you too lost legitimacy. I have to stop responding to you as well.

They are probably blowing money on useless things but at the same time with the amount of ever increasing damage from climate events more and more money is needed to be spent on rebuilding roads and bridges, fighting forest fires, emergency services and rescues. The insurance providers will likely start going under if they were to replace all property damage. It is like fighting a war that you cannot stop and cannot win.

This is probably good indication that I had taken the wrong position this time.?

After your very first line, you lost all legitimacy, so I cannot continue reading and responding to you.

You call this bull-chit ? Or this is all fake news? Or maybe the word "unprecedented" in your vocabulary has some weird new meaning? Yep, go see your doctor and do it soon.

One consideration is missing in the above logic. Imagine the FN's had an equal start or were even far ahead in whatever the game was; then they were pushed back so far that they never ever managed to catch up. Now the offspring of those who pushed them back are claiming they are in no way responsible. The final result though is that FN's offspring were left far behind while the whites continue to enjoy privileges facilitated by their ancestors.

Well, I am sure you will agree that USA has more influence over UN than India does. Both killings were of dubious legitimacy.

Every country is experiencing the same climate related horrendous events, so all of them are trying to reduce their carbon emissions. If we have a moratorium on the exports of coal, oil and gas, China can buy nothing from us.

This is the start of it. Then the monetary system will collapse and then the political system. Wait and see, because there is a good chance it happens in our lifetime.
