canada plays the progressive moral high ground to whitewash their broken capital flow magnet scheme.

It is not that hard to look good on the outside when your neighbour is the US

Wait, really? I must be missing something here. Even though it's surprising to me, I can believe that Canada is actually a bit worse off than the US with respect to housing prices. But not only is this a drastic difference (hundreds of percent), this graph implies that from 1989 to 2005 and again from 2008 until covid, the US had a higher real disposable income than the real housing prices and that disposable income vs housing prices in the US have been pretty much in parity the whole time. Is it something like the wealthiest percentiles are skewing the data for the US to make it appear like people in general can afford homes? (GDP shows the economy is great actually!) If that's the case, why isn't the same true of the Canadian data set?

the first time I was told this it changed the way I think about everything, I felt like such a sucker buying into it

Wait is that real? Looks fake there's no way

that's Capitalism for you.

Post it again in allcaps for the people in the back

yeah, Canadians are mostly just going to roll over and take it. But I guess the RCMP still want to be able to contain and control what little violence comes about from it.

It'll be mask off fascists followed by riots in the cities and armed indigenous protests.

Chrystia Freeland, the deputy pm of Kkklanada, is like a third or fourth generation Ukrainian Nazi. Stays pretty quite about it, but she's slipped up from time to time and let us glimpse behind the mask.

I'm not Canadian, but I cannot stress enough to any Canadians to start organizing and talking to regular people. If you don't, the fascists will and they already have a head start.

He can’t say it because he lives in toronto, especially a gentrified area of the cities that used to be a spot for artists and students. It is also the place where they shot the Scott Pilgrim live action.

It would be against his personal interests. Also, his fanbase already made their mind on who to blame for those crisis (it is not economical or systemic)

Canadians are fucking morons, yes. We have like 3 media monopolies that dominate all political thought for 99.9% of the population.

I for one welcome my Quebecois overlords. What are they gonna do? Build some much-needed hydropower?

Trust me, most Klanadians aren't gonna get caught in that trap

When they blame immigrants it will be with some of the most mask off racism you've ever heard. Only country I know where people have racial slur nicknames for half the cities in the province

I’ve already seen reactionaries on social media spread the notion that undocumented workers are the reason house prices in the US are so high (because of course, the most marginalized and vulnerable people are the ones who just get boatloads of handouts from the government…)
