      Yeah but the rich are getting richer, isn’t that what we care about? Not the unwashed masses? /s

      We elected a central banker to fix problems caused by imprudent central banking.

      We all need to pool our money together with our friends/family and live on a self-sustaining farm/commune type of deal.

      I, thankfully have a job, but i am always looking for new opportunities, and i cannot believe the wages being paid right now. It used to be you could jump, 5, 10, 25% by moving jobs every few years, but right now? i’d be taking a 10 year income reversal for similar positions that i hold now.

      „Poverty rate up“

      Don’t need Statistic Canada to know this, just take a walk downtown

      Few things: Our aggregate GDP only increased because of immigration but collectively per capita we all got poorer. Yes the pandemic and war have fucked over supply chains but Canada was on a downward spiral before that. We have way too much regulation (Hell we can’t even have consistent standards, and it’s harder to trade across provinces, we value virtue signalling over industry, Edmonton takes like 3 months to approve permits to build housing, Toronto and major cities take nearly 25 months…what the fuck?), and then we still bring in low wage TFWs that suppress our wages, block nation building projects due to the same virtue signalling, spend money we don’t have because of our aging population who owns homes and screws over the young gen, as well as welfare for non citizens, and cry Trump? How tf did we elect the same governtment twice? I understand provinces also suck but since cutting immigration, rents are lower, wages are growing, albeit slowly. We could have capitalized on the LNG boom, but Noooo it wasn’t “investible”. This country and its citizens are responsible for all of this collectively. You hated Trump (I don’t blame ya) but Canada had problems before him.

      Geez, I wonder why we’re going backwards when the raises don’t match inflation.

      No, this must be misinformation. I have it on good authority that things have never been more affordable for Canadians….
      /s

      Talk about gaslighting or day to day lives.

      I recently saw a director position in my field paying $70k. I am two positions lower and make almost this much and don’t have near the level of responsibility that a director would. Also considering these positions don’t include a pension and my low-level role does, it pretty much ends up being the same salary as my much easier job.

      Because corporations like it that way. The government enabled this.

      The less money you make, the more need for you to pay your bills will make you more of a wage slave. Exploitable. People chained by debts and bills.

      It is all by design.

      Edit to add: but here is my question, what are this corporations going to do when people are just scraping by, only focues on necessities? Seriously, who are they gonna sell stuff to if the masses can’t afford it??!!!

      While the Liberals continue to ignore the affordability concerns of Canadians,
      The reality for families is getting worse. Here in Canada we continue to carry the highest food inflation of the G7, a badge of shame we’ve held for four months in a row.

      Somehow this is all Stephen Harper’s fault and a few lofty speeches from Mark Carney should get it all patched up. Not *actually* patched up, of course, just speeches. That will be good enough for the CBC and Star and Liberal supporters, and they’ll go up another two points in the polls thanks to relentless gaslighting.

      The billionaire class are doing well, though. Something we can all be proud of.

      Keep voting liberal.
      Governments need to be held accountable for failure by being voted out from time to time.

      I have voted out the conservatives, and I will gladly vote out the liberals now that their Time has come.

      Governments become corrupt after being in power for too long.

      Guys I know what will fix this. Make sure to give the Liberals another majority in 2030!

      This is and has clearly been the Liberal party’s plan for Canada. The TFW and the use of LMIA’s sole intent is to prop up corporations so that they don’t need to pay domestic labour market rates.

      The gameplan is keep wages low, invest in real estate, and milk the Canadian market for all it’s worth. Wages are low, while rent and property values are high.

      Recessions like COVID also made it possible to increase the price of domestic goods as inflation, all without needing to pay workers more. So profits are up across board, the rich are getting very rich. Workers, not so much. Not when they’re replaced with cheap labour who’ll have to do whatever their employer says or their citizenship is threatened.

      The TFW program needs to be eliminated, or they can just keep importing more slaves from elsewhere in the world who’ll have to work for minimum wage with no bathroom breaks, or be kicked out if they don’t bend over for their minimum wage paying Liberal backing slave master. Look at every fast food joint and Tim Horton’s. You’re looking at modern human trafficking and slavery.

      We have a broken immigration system.

      I feel like people in Canada has given on the notion that your own hard work will get you good life, they believe govt should guarantee that. Problem with that is, govt Canada make everyone rich, it can make select few rich and everyone else poor. Thats been happening in Canada, so much potential in country but such a bad management. Personally I am doing pretty well, but I feel bad for other people.

      I think more immigrants who take less than minimum wage should fix this.
