Islam in Canada to overtake Christianity in 2025

[mikedavid00]

Life in Canada is rough and poverty stricken. Similar to Russia; apartments everywhere, people living check to check, quiet unrest, corrupt gov't looting public funds, policital pay-off's, self hatred.. it's Canada.

Well Mikedavid00 you have managed to get another big round of responses. Where have you been the last few months? Did you find work? Things getting better for you?

Where you in Russia lately?

Yes I found work and have been very busy lately so I've not been able to post. When life get's better for youself, you forget look at everything through a rose coloured glass and think things aren't so bad.

Well not me. I still know that if this job falls through or the company goes under I'm still screwed and there's nohting out there. I feel our economy is the worst it's ever been. House pricing to income ratio is just unreal. People struggling to survive. Looting of public funds by our elected officials and crown corp's. Canada is in a state of degredation. Almost all of this is due to the careless, mass immigration of the last 10 years.

I suspect you're underestimating the power of victim politics and in particular racially driven victim politics in a culture all too ready to apologize for its past successes.

Do you enjoy rewriting history or something...

Let me guess, the white man has committed no wrong, and the coloured people are all evil and intent on destroying our great culture. Really get a grip bud, and stop thinking your more superior than everybody else because your a certain ethnicity and you happen to have a penis.

I had really hoped you had forgotten about me. I have no desire to teach you anything anymore, so please go away.

You once challenged me to find give you a job for $55,000/year as a new hire computer genius.

I was just about to when I reread your OP, and wondered why I would pay that much for someone who can neither spell, nor operate spell-check.

Should I still hire you for my Critical Systems Integration Team, and if I don't, is it the fault of the immigrant who can spell?

Just wondering.

Well I'm not making that much but i'm in the ballpark. I'm working on some amazing things regarding with some national chain retailers that everyone here has come in contact with. I was also thinking about going into consulting.

To be honest, you can hire book schooled immigrats all you like and admire their spelling and grammar. A person like me goes into consulting becuase they are consistantly far beyond the skill level of their fellow employees.

Where I work, communication is no longer an issue. Basic, Basic, 'Did you happen to find out if...' sentences don't have to be dumbed down and explained 4 times over (no joke). Simple, basic taks like 'Can you get the print outs' are understood the first time. Back and forth emails and understood the first time and my time isn't wasted. The few people I work with a smart, decent people with skill and intelligence; not 'eye's in the headlights' stares and confused looks on their faces.

But go hire them over me. Everyone else does.

See, We actually are looking to get a head hunter in Alberta and other provinces to find regional sales reps/account managers (high paid ones). I'm not joking either. We are *not* looking for a head hunter like you who will bring us people with no basic communication skills who are easily impressed by paper qualifications. You have too much of the 'Canadian' hire practices in you which is a shame becuase as a head hunter it brings you down to that gutter.

I rented a basement for a while from a Pakistani. He was a 'transit planner' for the city of Toronto (meaning he got paid $75k or so - don't beleive go look up how much the city jobs pay).

Let's put it this way. If I had to pick August1991 or my old landlord to submit a transit plan in 3 months where the official plan would be reviewed by a panel of experts, I would place my bets on August1991 even though he's not officially trained as a transit planner. I would pick him becuase he can speak English, is smart, and has basic North American though processes. That is how big the gap is between him and the Pakistani guy. There's almost no comparison. When the Pakistani guy had to program his satellite box, he was completely clueless.

It's like dude, your an engineer making all this money, you have owned satellite for YEARS, and you are so dumb you don't know how to enter keys or flash firmware on your own satellite box.

So there I sat in his basement apt. flashing his firmware and updating his keyes even though I never touched a box before in my life.

He didn't have the basic, basic life skill of researching information and applying it to a real situation. He couldn't comprehend the English and complexity of the task, yet he's planning Toronto's transit situation.

Oh but he's really good at passing those university exams and getting people like you to hire him!

We are *not* looking for a head hunter like you

Hey meathead, look up our previous posts. I'm not a head hunter, I'm a Director with a large O&G service group. But I'm sure a genius like you already knew that.

Oh but he's really good at passing those university exams and getting people like you to hire him!

...and for another thing...most people on this board know that I am no fan of immigration. Period. However, if I have to choose between someone who can use proper grammar and has basic spelling skills and someone who "no need school-already speak gooder english!", I'll take the former every time. Immigrant or not.

But go hire them over me. Everyone else does.

Ever wonder why??? You state that you don't bother with grammar and spelling, and then you say you want to consult. To whom would you like to consult? A fifth grade language arts class? Start with becoming more professional and quit blaming the world's problems on immigration.

I can't believe that I'm coming in on the side of immigrants (being a xenophobe and all), but would you grow up please?

People who enter the US (for the most part) are *desireables* who are not allowed to use public healthcare and must be fully employed - sponsored in by company or attending a school. Thereafter they will be kicked out after two work permit terms where they will usually come to Canada to take the few presious jobs that we do have away from Canadians and drive down our skilled labor market and sponsor in their relatives.

I dislike the American rejects the most becuase they always have killer qualifications and excellent work experience. This ensures that a Canadian will lose their job to him. We need to look after the potential Canadian candidate's life and dreams, not that of a globe trotting oppertunist.

You don't fill out an application and just wander into the US. Only Canada does this. We don't have an immigration policy, we simply import people by the masses and let them wander in.

Someone needs to do his research and get updated on what is going on in the US; specifically, the number of illegals who use public healthcare, were not sponsored by a company or school, who send their children to school but pay no school taxes (and no income tax for that matter) and are not kicked out of the US because they work for much less than an American who pays for healthcare, income taxes, school taxes, etc. could or would work for...and oh yes, the illegals' unsponsored relatives usually manage to sneak in as well. Millions who are in the US did not even fill out an application, they just wandered in; at least if there is an application, there is a record of entry into Canada.

What American rejects are you referring to? There is no such thing unless they are some form of known criminal and you won't convince me that Canada would accept such a person. As a matter of fact, an American with a DUI (even a very old conviction) can be refused entry into Canada even if they are just passing through a Canadian point of entry in order to board a cruise ship.
