Canada surpassed a grim milestone recently. In one month, a record of over 2 million Canadians went to a food bank. This is not right. Nationally, food bank usage is up 90% since 2019 and now certain food banks are running out of food. Our people are starving and suffering in the street, but the government will still tell you that the Canadian economy is doing well.

The Canadian government continues to waste billions of dollars on useless initiatives, send billions of dollars to other countries and import millions of people into the country. This equation does not make sense.

I used to volunteer at the local food bank doing fundraisers, sorting and handing out packages and driving before Christmas delivering the turkey dinner packages being sent out.
Over the past three years I had noticed more and more young people coming in, some of them dressed quite nicely and carrying the latest phones.
Last year it seemed that just after the middle of August the majority were visible international students attending Queens, one of the volunteers with me pointed this out to me and showed me a video, I tried to find it again but the thumbnail is in the video below bottom right in the thumbnail..
We pretty much ran out of food packages by the middle of September and a plea was issued for more assistance.
Myself and three others quit volunteering for walk in distribution and fundraising just after Christmas, which I feel bad for the people who really need it but the majority was not going to the people who needed it.
Now I just do the deliveries to the families who I know really need it.

Try something new. The liberals have been in power for nine years.
And the Ontario Tories - whose fault this actually is - for 6 years.

Is there a conservative or populist somewhere that has ever fixed this?
Has PeePee said he'd do anything other than axe the tax, cut dental and child care?

I know the video you're talking about. These international "students" were giving tutorials on how to get free food in Canada. It went viral and got deleted I believe.

What these guys do is fake that they have the funds to live in Canada, then once they are here they do whatever to survive. There are tons of Indian tutorials on how to cheat the Canadian system but it's all in their language so it goes under the radar.

It's a shame what this system has become under Trudeau.

And Doug Ford's self-proclaimed, miraculous reformation and rebirth of Ontario, which accounts for about 35% of Canada's population, has 50% of the total Canadian usage of food banks.

"Hunger promised, hunger kept" - It's Doug your favorite, faux-folksy, sock puppet of developers and corporate interests.

Annie, I TTC-ed along College St West today. You know the road which your dumbass buddies reduced to 1 fucking lane in order to install a massively wide elevated, delux bike lane. I took the street car 10 minutes to get from Spadina to Grace. It ALWAYS takes the street car 10 fucking minutes to get from Spadina to Grace.

That's because the artery is totally fucked and gridlocked.

I don't gaf how many bribes Duggler takes from however many corrupt developers. The Dugger is going to tear up that fucking bike lane so that part of the commute takes only 3 fucking minutes again.

I will vote for the Duggler every time like a soldier until those bike lanes are ripped out and the city moves again.

FUCK THE BIKE LANE LOSERS!!!!

You want faster roads?
Stop parking your private property on them.

Leave them for commuters, bikes, pedestrians and cars.
Get rid of all parking on those roads.

Its not bike lanes, the 401 and Gardner have no bike lanes.

Trudeau recently announced he's cutting the number of international student permits. Why? He's the one who increased them to begin with.

Same thing with immigration. He just announced he's cutting annual targets. Why did he increase them in the first place?

Why do you think he's backpedalling on so many of his signature policy decisions? There must be a reason.

We needed less immigrants.
So?

Does that prove something?
You think its wrong if you change policy?

Yes, it proves that he shouldn't have increased the level to begin with.

A slow and steady pace of immigration would have prevented the need for these policy changes.

WTF did you think would happen when you let in a million people each year?

The fault is in the stars cars consuming up all that paved tar, the single occupancy SUVs devouring every sq. centimeter of paved tar, the single occupancy cars and SUVs parking on every square millimeter of the paved tar.

There were two lanes each in either direction before. And there are still 2 lanes each in either direction now that are occupied by single occupancy cars and SUVs either locked in park on tar or inching along on tar that are the culprits and perps in your grievous nightmares of gridlock and congestion.

Previously there was a parked lane and 2 driving lanes. Now there is a bike lane, separated from the rest of the road by a raised platform; a parked car lane that is full of parked cars; and a single driving lane.

Your buddies have screwed up every inch of the city that they have been able to. Ford is going to kick your buddies' sad asses and get re elected until this is fixed.

As I stated below:

"A PARKED CAR LANE" as you attested to, that is consuming valuable paved tar.
