I think you did not understand what I meant, but this is not surprising. I think he found you stupid and acted that way, because clearly, Musk isn't an anti Semite. He's just a megalomaniac billionaire with too much power. And the way you seem to control your anger, means you have trouble communicating which goes symbiotically with a lack of general intelligence.

I would play stupid with stupid, too.

If it were like a few dozens for training or for very specialized temporary gigs, OK. But like you mentioned... half of the jobs going to foreigners with our taxes? This is straight up a hold up.

Among the proposals under study this year, one would raise the minimum age required to start receiving the pension to 62 years. Another would increase this age to 65 years. Yet another would increase the penalty faced by those who start receiving their pension before age 65. In all cases, the changes would be implemented gradually, over a period of 7 to 22 years. The objective of Retraite Québec is clear: to delay the moment when Quebecers begin to receive their pension. We will soon know if it is also that of the government. Unlike what is happening in France, the objective here is not to put a deficit regime back on track. On the contrary, the most recent actuarial evaluation of the plan indicates that there is no reason to worry: there will be enough money to pay all the pensions planned over the next 50 years, and this, without having to increase the current contribution rate. At the rate things are going, the basic regime reserve could even exceed $800 billion… in 2071. https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/1951000/hugo-lavallee-regime-rentes-quebec-retraite-consultations

Our pension system is not only sustainable but is also extremely robust, even if the number of pensioners went up drastically. The Quebec government for example will have a little less than a trillion dollars left even after all the baby boomers rest in peace. They considered bringing up the retirement age to 62 instead of 60 and faced backlash because it was deemed unnecessary.

NEW DELHI, Nov 22 (Reuters) - U.S. authorities thwarted a plot to kill a Sikh separatist in the United States and issued a warning to India over concerns the government in New Delhi was involved, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, citing unnamed sources. There was no immediate response from India's foreign ministry to requests for comment on the report. A spokesperson for the U.S. embassy said that it does not comment on discussions with its partners on diplomatic, law enforcement or intelligence issues. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-thwarts-plot-kill-sikh-separatist-issues-warning-india-ft-2023-11-22/?utm_source=reddit.com --- There were many on this forum who thought Trudeau was lying out of spite when he condemned the Third World country to have assassinated a Canadian on our territory. The USA, who only have incentives to have a good relationship with India to counter China, now warns India that Third World practices such as political assassinations had to stay in the Third World, as the developing nation tried to assassinate another Sikh on US soil. What should be our stance politically with India, considering how they are treating their partners?

Bro... Bruh... I should add. Bruuuuuuuh, even. Bruuuuuuuuuh wtf.

Ever heard about the Laffer curve in your macroeconomics classes? Apply the principle for taxes to immigration. If we have too much immigration, the benefits of immigration goes down and is actually hurting the economy. When there is so much competition just for housing, it is billions that are lost in rents/mortgages that would be invested in other, productive parts of the economy. When there are too many immigrants, salaries are going down. The toll on the demand for public services is tremendous. I'm not in favor of 0 immigration, just like I'm not in the favor of 0 taxes. But too much of both is poison.

Canada, despite the extremely high immigration levels, has about the same growth as Japan and SK. And those two countries have a much lower inflation rate. Canada's GDP per capita growth is lower than other advances economies and the US who sustain a much lower immigration rate. Real GDP per capita is expected to go down in the next years in Canada as a result of the pie shares being shared with more and more individuals, and is expected to stagnate as best starting in 2025. If we welcomed the new Leonardo Da Vincis I would agree. But we're shipping low wage migrants that will work at Tim Hortons or as Security Guards sharing a 1 bedroom basement with two other families at this moment.

Canada GDP per capita in 2021: 51K Norway GDP per capita in 2021: 89K Norway is one of the most prosperous nation on Earth as I'm writing this. It has been the case for decades. It is doing extremely well and is going to well in the future as they have good management. When you reach the ceiling, it's tough to grow even more. That is an extremely good thing, probably the best argument for a decrease in immigration. A housing crash is way overdue in Canada. This isn't true, as productivity is increasing a lot. Just to give you an example, when the first pensions were established in the XXth Century, we had 40 workers to 1 retiree. It has shrunk tremendously, we have 2 workers for 1 retiree. We have computers, robots, progress. The system isn't collapsing. By increasing the demand for social services like we do in Canada, we're flooding our system. The idlotic rise of immigration targets and the sheer increase of the number of people living here is not a good thing, as we're breaking the fragile equilibrium we have.

I'm not an advocate for the surge of population growth we are currently facing in Canada. If population growth would lead to higher economic growth, Norway would be one of the poorest countries on Earth and Nigeria one of the richest. If you increase the number of people having to share a pie, the pie portions shrink.

This is a criminal enterprise. Scum.

The Liberals giving billions of taxpayers' money to merely build some housing after spending years of increasing immigration to unsustainable levels which created the worse housing crisis and cost of living crisis since 1929 is like a husband hitting his wife everyday but one day comes back home from the office with flowers paid by the wife's credit card and expects a celebration.

1. Japan has lower inflation and the same GDP growth as Canada despite having its population dropping. Same with South Korea. These two countries have little to no immigration and have no plan to increase it. 2. Can you give a name?

That simply isn't true and a deflection from the debate. Many countries have negative population growth, especially first world countries, and Canada is not obliged by any means to welcome as many foreigners as it does at this pace. It is economically unsound, socially catastrophic and morally wrong to sustain this model.

Americans are too dumb to see that inflation is a good thing and that GDP went up which means they got richer. Or, you're coping.

It will stay in your MVR (Motor Vehicle Report) for 10 years although certain insurance companies only consider these records for 6 years maximum. But they're rare. The rates won't fall any time before that unfortunately for you. You're not going to be eligible to any standard insurance for many years. You'll have to go to a substandard market, and I would suggest you to get quotes from multiple independent brokers, do not even bother calling standard insurance companies, you'll waste your time and the brokers/Licensed insurance agents time. If you're not very wealthy, maybe your best option in your case will be to keep a 1 way insurance with a used car driven mainly by demographics who have less accidents, and also to suspend coverages for many months of the year to save as much as possible. Even better would be that the car would be registered in someone else's name such as your spouse or a family member living with you, having you as a secondary driver. Thank God that there were only material damages by the way.

Freedom of association is a human right which is denied to those who are not considered a sacred cow of the PC movement.

1. People lose their jobs and incomes due to their political views which are not bigoted, but only because they have voices who are criticizing the gender ideology movement. It is not freedom of speech if you have a sword over your head for expressing a non-PC view, it is not freedom of association as well to impose males in women competition where women want to compete between each other. 2. I don't know what you're referring to. My argument still stands; Unity is not a goal we should reach as a society. 3. Trying to impose your views in a way that's aggressive, that defies even elementary biology is not going forward. I don't think denying basic biology is the way to go. I don't think censorship is the way to go. The issues of freedom of speech and association are in grave danger and if those fall, we will live a little Dark Age in the West.

Freedom of speech and association are in decline in Canada and the western world in general, and is a major issue. Political unity is something only a dictatorship would wish, by the way. We need a plurality of views and we need to make it acceptable to debate gender ideology.

I am not with the pro-Palestinains who shouted at Justin Trudeau. It is Justin Trudeau's sidekicks that came back at him. He was so for political violence and intimidation when it targeted his political enemies.

Maxine Waters encourages supporters to harass Trump administration officials https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/25/politics/maxine-waters-trump-officials/index.html --- I'm quoting this American politician, who invited activists to shout and harass Trump officials back in 2018. It was a precedent that was rarely denounced by the media, it was even encouraged. Freedom to protest was the excuse given to authorize these targeted harassment. Then in Canada we've had activists who literally burned churches and shops in the name of social justice, who shout at every Conservative caucus. I'm not feeling bad for Trudeau, at all. He encouraged BLM and political intimidation. Live by the sword...

This is exactly what I think and maybe what the judge or jury will think too. On another note, one of the most awful thing I've read about this case was on Twitter where many people, particularly far right extremists, said that Petgrave would get no charges because he was a Black man playing a White sport... a part of society's effed up to bring racism into this conversation.

Jurisprudence in Italy. AOSTA, Italy -- Italian hockey player Jimmy Boni pleaded guilty to a reduced manslaughter charge for causing the death of an opponent during an Italian League game and was fined $1,600. Boni faced 10-to-18 years in prison. The defense and prosecution agreed on a plea bargain before the trial began. The prosecutor conceded the scuffle that led to the player's death was 'part of the play.' Miran Schrott fell to the ice after being slashed to the chest by Boni and died of cardiac arrest in a hospital without regaining consciousness. The incident occurred in a Jan. 14, 1992 game between Courmayer and Gardenia in the Italian B league. The 19-year-old Schrott and Boni, the Courmayer captain, were scuffling in front of the net when Schrott punched Boni. Boni retaliated with a slash to the chest of Schrott. https://www.upi.com/Archives/1994/02/17/Italian-hockey-player-pleads-guilty-to-manslaughter/2921761461200/
