What did the CBC's produced, fact and evidence-based journalistic and analytical segment demonstrate?

It is as objectively obvious to me, as it is subjectively obvious to you.
You'd make an excellent politician. Continually avoiding the question. While some may see it as a sign of intelligence, many see right through it.

R u serious?

Bro, what happened to you considering that you were probably were educated in Canada as I was?

When did objectivity exit your life and bias and subjectivity take control of what once a sensible and reasoning mind?

As I stated, you have no clue what fact and evidenced-based journalism and analysis is at all.
Did you seriously just say "R u serious?" Oh wait, that's how the teenagers write these day. I get it, you're trying to be cool.

But seriously, have you been drinking? "Bro, what happened to you considering that you were probably were educated in Canada as I was?" Time for another shot. lol

More to my point, you're proving to be incapable of answering a simple question.

You have the ability to look right in the mirror but not see yourself...

Now there's an excellent observation. Nailed it!

You could ask Anbarandy 10 very simple Y/N questions and you wouldn't get one straight Y/N answer. As I said, he'd make an excellent politician. Maybe he already is one. NDP or Liberal? Not sure which one.

Don't blame the Commies... it's the rich business owners who want the cheap labour supply . I agree we should cap immigration ( they are all coming to T.O.), but don't blame the hard working immigrants who are working 3 jobs and trying to survive.

Nobody's blaming the immigrants. It's supply and demand when it comes to housing and rent prices. Business owners aren't responsible for the housing shortage, high rents, escalating housing prices, packed hospitals/homeless shelters and foodbanks that are running out of food. In large part, it's the federal government for allowing so many in and expecting cities to be able to handle the extra capacity.

Many politicians chant "we need more affordable housing" which is correct, but you can only build it so fast. And when they say "affordable" what do they mean, subsidized? Which is just another word for taxpayer funded. The Feds have created one hell of a mess.

And when you say "rich business owners, consider as of December 2022, there were 1.22 million employer businesses in Canada. Of those, 1.19 million (97.8%) were small businesses, 23,395 (1.9%) were medium-sized businesses, and 3,128 (0.3%) were large businesses. The vast majority, which are small, are not made up of "rich owners" wanting cheap labour. They too are affected by the rising cost of everything.

Are you serious? You honestly believe CBC TV and radio coverage doesn't favour the Liberal party? Just like The Globe and National Post favours the right?
I guess he thinks The Toronto Sun is fair and straight down the middle also. 😁

All media outlets will lean left or right. The thing with the CBC is they don't want to lose all credibility, so they slightly have to throw a bit of shade on Liberals right now.

Born and raised in the city.
I love that you can go anywhere and experience different cultures and experiences.
It just seems that we have opened the flood gates on immigration and not has made a mess of this city.
I’ve had qualified friends apply for numerous jobs either skilled trades, retail or office work. None of them have been able to secure a job as it seems the position were giving to immigrants at lower starting wages.
This city was built on the backs of immigrants who came to Canada for a better life. They worked hard , raised a family and contributed back to the community.
This new generation of immigrants are flooding our city, expecting hands outs from our liberal government and working for less money.
I hate to sound racist but this passed weekend events around the city absolutely disgusted me.
The attacks between 2 rival religious groups, the dewali 💩 that happened at Younge/Dundas square and incident of the group that parked illegally.
This is getting out of hand.

My Monday morning rant!
Rant away. Go off.

I think we all feel a bit guilty for having a visceral disgust response to all of this, because yeah it does feel a bit racist.

But the truth is, almost everyone is feeling this way. Including older waves of South Asian (legal) immigrants. Probably them most of all. I feel really badly for them if they experience discrimination just because of how they look; it’s just not a good time to be brown in Toronto. The entire country is livid about this right now, regardless of political leanings.

I live in a fairly nice waterfront community and my building used to be super ethnically diverse, all young professionals in their mid 30s (albeit with some annoying Airbnbs) and I really loved it. This year, it is now filled with Uber drivers sharing tiny apartments, leaving garbage everywhere, the carpets in the hallways are completely ruined with scooter tracks, and for the first time in 7 years I got bugs in my apartment. The swimming pool is consistently full of hair. Often my condo reeks of food I am not cooking.

I’m not okay selling pussy, paying what I pay, to live in a Punjabi slum. I do this so I can afford a nice life and save some money and have time to pursue other things.

There were a decent amount of South Asian techbros here before but they were totally normal and I have zero issue with them. But this is not what I signed up for.

I want to move so badly but I have rent control and will end up paying way way more for a much smaller condo that might just get the same issues. Plus I really love this neighborhood and how convenient it is.

I feel like I blinked and my entire world was different. It was really uncanny.

I think the CBC thing is just more liberal optics, and not pandering to PP. That was my guess, anyway.

The libs released and promoted the hell out of some stats that said international student visas had gone way down. They are just going into falling down mode right now, because everyone hates them, and they want to say “look we’re actually doing something about this!” because 2025 is just around the corner. It’s all performative. CBC will always be completely cucked 😂.

Sadly, PP isn’t going to do anything about immigration from India either, if that’s what you guys are hoping for. Some people upthread have correctly pointed out why. He’s not like Trump wrt deportation, lol.

We are just going to have to get used to the abrupt demographic change and try to do better moving forward with selecting quality migrants.

I’ll still be voting conservative even though I don’t believe any of this immigration shitshow will be remedied, ever. It’s so over.

RIP Canada

It'd still be bad but not quite as bad if Canada's immigration policy was diverse.

Why doesn't Canada bring in immigrants from all over the world in equal representation? Why does it flood the country with one ethnic group?

Canada's immigration administrators are corrupt.

2.8M more people.
Total deaths in Canada in 2022 was 334K.
If you assume similar deaths then this is population increase.
Trudeau lying as usual.
The math doesn't add up.
You do realize people die? Highschool Geography covers that.

Any semblance of this "supply and demand" nonsense regarding housing went out the window with the arrival of residential housing investors, mom and pops/investment groups/corporations whole scale and their subsequent piracy and control of residential housing.

Builders aren't building new shit now because the myth of "supply and demand" in residential is just that, a myth.

There is no demand anymore, but housing prices haven't declined accordingly.
