Maggie's FarmWe are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for. |

It's more complicated than this makes it seem to be. But there is one simple truth that the media won't say: If Canada had not chosen to begin massive immigration they would not have any of these problems. That's it, period, mike drop!!! 100% of their current economic, and social problems can be attributed to excessive immigration AND conflicting social norms. Not to mention that many of the Chinese immigrants where millionaires and got a free ride into Canadian citizenship (a large part of the increasing home and apartment prices). Canada's leaders were greedy (yes, you didn't benefit from all that immigration but they did). Now a large majority of Canada's leaders were NOT born in Canada and some who were still consider themselves to be citizens of their home country and are only in Canada to take advantage of Canadians. Yes, the Canadian politicians over the last 50 years or so fucked you and didn't even say thanks.
Oh yes, don't forget that Quebec hates you and at every opportunity fucked you over as much as your politicians did. SO what's the answer. Sorry, unless "Canadians" grow some balls AND AGREE on what has happened you are permanently fucked! Massive deportation, impeach many of your left wing judges, tar and feather many of your left wing politicians. Deport, deport, deport!!! "If Canada had not chosen to begin massive immigration they would not have any of these problems. That's it, period, mike drop!!! 100% of their current economic, and social problems can be attributed to excessive immigration AND conflicting social norms."
Maybe, maybe not. But they would have other, arguably more serious problems. Like an even lower fertility rate and an even higher median age. Major labor shortage and a contracting economy. IOW, the reason they need those immigrants is because they won't have children. There are no western countries with excess young adults to draw immigrants from. So they, and the rest of the west will have to settle for people from nonwestern counties who have different cultures and values and do not feel an affinity for western culture or much of a commitment to their new country. Seems like the blame for that lies with the people of those western countries. This is a fake argument brought to you by those who want more immigration. What difference does it make if Canada chose to reduce their population by a few percent? What difference does it make that less people choose to have more than two kids or even choose to have no children? The world is over populated and having six kids makes no sense to a lot of people. The second part of this fake argument is that Canada's (or any Western nation's) population is aging so we need more immigrants! Let me tell you something you might not know; every one of these immigrants will grow old!!! What then? More immigration!!
The citizens of Canada didn't vote for mass immigration. They weren't asked for a very good reason. Your leaders voted for mass immigration and your leaders became rich in various mysterious ways. They don't care that it destroyed jobs and opportunities for Canadians. They don't care that eventually it WILL lead to a civil war as the "new" Canadians choose to make Canada "New Afghanistan" (or whatever). They don't care about Canada and if you don't see that look at Trudeau and what he has done. There IS a reason that your leaders are taking your guns and restricting your rights... Canadian here. Yep. I own my own home and that is basically all I've got going for me. The China virus lockdown wiped out my 31 year professional career. Interesting times ahead...
It's not impossible up here in Soviet Canuckistan, merely unpleasant and difficult.
I don't see a lot of hope that the rest of the remains of the 1st world will do better in the long run. Californication is coming for you too. The most important issue in every Western country should be whether or not your grandchildren become a hated minority in the land of their fathers. every other issue is a distraction.
Immigration is a racket and a scam. It's about 3 things profit power and punishment. There is almost no economic benefit from it and what benefit there is is almost always captured by those who hire immigrants and the immigrants themselves while passing on all of the social economic and environmental burdens to our communities. Also, the more immigrants come the more difficult it becomes for people to fight those at the top because everything is divided and ethnic and racial strife and friction cause those in power to call for an end to personal liberties and the establishment of greater government control and authority until all that's left is a tyranny in a land of strangers.

Very likely, a conservative government will be elected in Canada soon. They promise to get rid of the carbon tax! Previous governments poorly invested in our retirement savings plan (RRSP), so we old Canadians are relying on the value of our house to pave the way for our retirement. So if you are old with a house, you will have retirement money. If you are young, you will need to move to less expensive areas for the foreseeable future The Trudeau regime destroyed my professional career of 31 years with their fascist lockdown. I am now forced to sell my home and move in with my beloved Father of 91 years because he wants to end his days in the house where he lived with his Wife. If you voted for any of these monsters your ignorance will be no excuse. And may God forgive you if it Right that He should do so. I am far less forgiving and I pray for an extremely long memory.
The lockdowns were intended to destroy lives but to benefit others. Ask Cui bono! It wasn't the finest hour of the police either enforcing the unconstitutional or illegal orders with excessive force. I am not aware of a single LEO in any Western country who resigned rather than cruelly enforce the illegal orders of their left wing leaders. Every Western country went from freedom to Nazi style police brutality over night. Never forget what they did and vote and act accordingly.
As truly messed up Canada is today, it has always been a hard place to live. In the late 19th Century my Canuck great grandfather fled Quebec (then an English-ruled colony) to come to the textiles mills along the Merrimack River. Thousands of Canucks did the same, and north east Massachusetts and south east New Hampshire are full of French Canadians. My mother's schools were taught half day in French and half day in English.
Look at any profession requiring talent, and you will find a significant number of transplanted Canadians, because for well over 100 years, no one could make a decent living in Canada. The greatest beneficiaries of Global Warming, and there will be many, are Canada and Russia. Their vast frozen wastelands will become productive. And worth fighting for. Mort Sahl had it right. |
