If significant numbers of people have not/do not pay taxes in Canada to support our health and welfare system then their use of those same systems weaken them for those who do. The weaken systems will start to fail and we’ll all be worse off unless, of course, we raise taxes or borrow more. How liberal is that!

I’m 60 years old and am now seriously looking to leave Canada. Canada will become a failed country in the next 10 years (or sooner) and I don’t see anything changing. You can’t keep on borrowing endlessly without consequences, most Canadians don’t understand how economics work.

Canada a great decline just like Argentina. No products processed, Locked natural resources & too much borrowing. The deceit & greed is from the bottom to the top.

Liberals using borrowed money to pay for immigration healthcare when Canadians cannot get care is absurd.

White people y'all gotta start having sex with each other again, otherwise every single one of your countries are going to borrow people from India to keep your local economies moving. WHITE PEOPLE STOP HATING, AND START LOVING AGAIN!!! Or else all y'all's countries gonna look like India

In high school a Punjabi borrowed his brothers car and one day he was speeding and did a head on collision killing a mother and the daughter was pregnant

Can we borrow ICE please we need it.

Borrow ICE from US for a week!

The guy giving ideas how Canada should be legally with the new immigrantes. And I see , he looks so sorry about , take your salary offer personal help and borrow money or makes a foundation. Don't look STUPID.!!

If life in India is easier GO THE FUCK BACK! THEY DON'T HELP OUR ECONOMY AT ALL, THEY DON'T BORROW FROM OUR BANKS, THEY WORK FOR THIER OWN THOSE EMPLOYER GET 30% SUBSIDY ON THEIR WAGES AND THEY HELP THEIR OWN CLAIM LESS ON INCOME TAX SO THEY DON'T PAY TAXES. THE GOVERNMENT JUST HAS TO SEE THEIR HOMES,CARS AND BUSINESSES AND WONDER HOW SOMEONE MAKING 20K A YEAR CAN AFFORD ALL THAT.

Maybe we can borrow the US ICE….What a joke!!! Round them all up and DEPORT

Go figure nobody's having children because it costs too much to have children so they bring in immigrants who work in their own communities borrow from their temples or their mosques with no user fees still go and circumnavigate our laws and our benefit programs social assistance and are able to afford to have children yet we had to bring them in because we aren't able to have offspring I don't think it's because we don't want to have children it's because we can't afford to have children because we're too busy paying 60% for foreign worker tax benefits so they can have children to take over our country

You can't have it both ways!! First we were told to STOP having so many children...they said there are too many bodies on the earth, DEMANDED we reduce the number of course we're having. Corporations who's companies depend on workers and an ever increasing profit share, are being gutted from within by greedy shareholders. These corporations have borrowed money based on past, present, real and IMAGINED INCOME...and that model collapses if there are not enough consumers to buy their products. These corporations will go bankrupt and fall into ruin if we continue along with the current climate change model fear mongering about too many people. The fact is Canada has NEVER had too many people. We run at a carbon DEFICIT compared to other nations with same population. The world doesn't have a population problem - the middle East has a population problem, and since we share NO BOARDERS with any of these nations - NOT ONE OF THESE PEOPLE IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY. DEPORT THEM ALL

I became homeless after spending over 2 months in the ICU of a Toronto hospital barely walking in was taken to a Toronto city shelter and for 5 years I've been in 5 different Toronto shelters in what seemed like a blink of a eye every shelter became 80% north African Muslim men ,they were given cash allowances to buy their own food $80 a day plus welfare cheques once a month boosted up with TTC allowance $157 clothing allowances and yes they were all given money to buy laptops and smart phones apparently so they can keep in touch with their families back in Africa, in the last shelter I stayed in there was only 6 white Canadian born homeless people living there and 94 north Africans whom we started to notice were being housed only to have the next one take up their cott space housed yes and when we started looking into how they were getting housed so fast when we were apparently on a 37,000 name waiting list for housing with our housing workers telling us it will take 10 years if we are lucky then we found out about the secret housing program that these fresh off the boat immigrants were getting market value apartments of their choice you pick the government pays one African we befriended ( he wasn't a believer in Islam shush or they'll kill him) got a 1 bedroom condo apartment over looking Toronto's Island airport $2,700 a month and the government payed for all his furnishings, so now we knew and we approached the on site housing workers asking why we weren't told about COHB at first they tried to deny it existed but researching we had all the information first these COHB forms were to be handed out to those with seniority length of stay so as to cut out on abuse being that they are worth over $250,000 after ten years of paying your rent as in free housing for life , then we discovered the staff were making false entries on our files claiming some of us lost our seniority for fighting claiming we were kicked out for 14 days others for smoking violations what they didn't think we knew was on admission to any shelter you sign a agreement that they are videoing you and keeping a file on you that also stated we are allowed to have up to date copies of our files then during the 2 weeks we were supposedly kicked out we asked for the videos from that period once they realized we had a advocate working for us who a l so supplies lawyers to us should we need so they got caught then management called us all up for a meeting and that's when we hit him with a bombshell yes the shelters are staffed with immigrants from the same African countries this Hoard is coming from and we have a sworn statement saying they are charging $10,000 for these guaranteed housing forms yes $10,000 that's what our none Muslim African shelter friend payed for his form and why he's now living free in easily close to a million dollar condo and believe me the cars parked there show it, ok so after we busted them guess what 6 whites who were all born in Canada and have lived a average of 3.5 years in a shelter all got housed in apartments of our choosing mind we did get ours fully furnished by the government like all these illegal Christian hating islamists get free housing free food free clothing free medical free dental free prescription drugs and a free huge monthly welfare cheque Rebel news please contact us we want every Canadian to know what's going on and how we Canadians are being left out, p.s just go to any money transfer business at the end of the month and you'll see line ups of these north Africans wiring money back to their wives and families even boxing up all the mountains of free clothing sending it to Africa same what they're doing with all the prescription drugs they are getting for free everything is about making money taking taking taking not putting anything back , now I sleep soundly no one stealing my belongings no more catching a different cold every week no more being called a filthy infidel which seems to be their favorite word COHB look that up and if your living paycheck to paycheck working 2 jobs just get to a shelter say one with 94 Africans who will all be housed shortly leaving you the most seniority easy peasy but remember to keep a eye on your file for false entries or borrow $10,000 to buy one

his comments about working positively with Russia and appeasing putin are opinions not facts. The fact is WE ARE BROKE. We you me cant afford to be spending money on Ukraine as much as it pains me to say. We are going to go bankrupt and then we wont be able to help ourselves. We cannot continue to spend BORROWED MONEY. Are you willing to have the value of your hard earned dollar to fight a never ending battle. The truth is not a pretty one. Everytime we borrow money the quality of your life and your families diminishes. Not Ok with that. its a fucking struggle out here. and i know it is for you too. Mr Trudeau I think i just made it make sense. We cant afford it. War must end at all costs. or we are fucked.

Blistering speech, eh! \nDid he borrow ZeIIensky's Test Ickles? \n Watch out JD! How dare you... \nThe miniskirted Boy Gang is coming at ya!

Can we borrow him for a few years?

Money doesn't grow on trees. Can't borrow money and then forever borrow more money to pay for the interest on that money. Have to pay for that support that has already been given to Ukraine sometime and Tariffs are one way of doing that by getting that money from Americans in the USA.

It’s amazing how far you can get with the peptalk and borrowing some hair gel from Newsom

Wait... you just switched away from his remarks when the Prime Minister switched to French? Is it because you don't understand, or don't have translators? Where are your translators CNN? Maybe you should borrow some from the CBC/Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, because if you only listen to half his message, you're only getting half of what he said.

Lol Canada is a lazy neighbor who always wants to borrow sugar, but never pays us back

.... Well I'll tell you what Trudeau,.... None of us people wanted these tariffs either... At least not the people who are sane... I don't even think the people who voted for Donald Trump wanted these tariffs against the rest of the world either....I really don't understand the sense behind it because this is not going to make America greater.... It's going to destroy the economy of America and whatever the country it is that he poses these tariffs on... He thinks this is a strategy for getting what he wants... But I'll tell you what, he may be shocked and sadly mistaken when he finds out that it might just backfire ...this is a very conceited attempt to get the type of economic condition that he envisions for his new Dictatorship over America....he has alienated United States from its allies in Europe as well as its allies here at home.... This is probably about as dumb as his treatment of Volodimir Zelensky that just transpired on Friday at the oval office...and that idiot Vance is the one actually that has started that little debacle....I don't know man I thought these guys had more sense than to do this kind of shit.... But see this kind of situation is not going to affect him or his billionaire buddies because they have so much money they can cushion themselves until the cows come home....these assholes don't have nothing to worry about except the American people finding an emergency way of getting his ass out of office unless he changes course on all of this... I don't know if he can be impeached or not... But it might be a smart thing to find out if it IS possible.... AND EVEN IF IT IS WE STILL HAVE HIS SITTING REPLACEMENTS STILL IN OFFICE AS WELL SO I DON'T SEE THIS GOING AWAY WITHIN THE NEXT 4 YEARS UNLESS HE COMES BACK TO HIS SENSES, AND POSSIBLY GOES TO A DOCTOR AND HAVE HIS HEAD CHECKED....\nDTheMadkat123\nFrom a borrowed phone \n....the only thing I really do support that he is doing is securing the border and dealing with immigration issues here.... That's it that's all I was hoping that he would really focus on being in the oval office, and possibly standing by Ukraine, and Israel during these evil days.... Buddying up to Putin is like the single most insane thing that has come from this as well..I just hope and pray that he comes back to his senses and backtracks on all of this shit.... Besides I like Canada House whiskey, and Canada Dry Ginger ale, and other products from Canada.... Stand strong Canadians, I love you all, and I hope we can make it through these tough times ahead...but obviously the road that we're traveling now there really is no guarantees is there ?? Lady can you shut the hell up and go back to what Trudeau is saying ??

Dear Canadians can we please borrow your Prime Minister Downunder, he’s a gem ?

Putting tariffs on Canadian (or Mexican) goods is like charging your neighbor to borrow your power drill.

BORROWING MONEY THAT THE CHILDREN OF TODAY WILL HAVE TO PAY BACK IN THE YEARS TO COME

I used to keep a refrigerator full of beer and a well stocked liquor cabinet. My friends were at my house 7 days a week. I stopped buying beer and boxed up my liquor and all my friends got mad and stopped coming by to visit. Our country has borrowed \n$37 trillion dollars and given a lot away to countries that claimed to be our friends and partners. We stopped giving money away and we are the bad guys? \nYeah I see a parallel.

The job loss is on purpose. Trump and Elon want the Federal Interest rate to go down and the fed won’t do it without job numbers going down drastically. Canada is playing into Elon and Trump’s hands. The job losses will help them borrow more money to destroy Democracy with and replace it with a techno-feudal system that will make us envy Soviet citizens ?‍?

I don't think Donald Trump borrowed a shitload of money from the bank and isn't paying the bank like Justin says the deficit will pay for itself I don't know what idiot thinks that but he does he's the reason why we're in trouble if he didn't have this country so screwed up we'd have something to fight with.

Someone took Justin's balls out of the drawer and let him borrow them for a few minutes.

Hi Canada! Uh, neighbor, can we borrow a cup of sane, intelligent , well-spoken leadership?

If this is what America does to its close life, what would it do to its worst enemy? I know, make them a friend and borrow money.

So when are all the Americans who support Ukraine going to suit up and head over and do the fighting. Do you realize we had to BORROW the money to send to Ukraine? So a non ally, non NATO member sovereignty is more important than bankrupting the US.

Why can't Americans have a decent adult as president? Borrow a Canadian if you can't find one in the USA...

All this nonsense because of Trumpskys stupidity in business and borrowing money from a Russian dictator that can never be paid back legally.

Quick donny may I borrow a tie?not appropiate attire? ill trade you two igloos for a bowtie and kiss your ring while you lick Vlads boots-Donny can you multitask?

Can we borrow him for the next four years? Asking for a country ?

Very well organized by UN emigration compact NOT voted by you but payed by you. With money that DOESN'T EXIST, gov has to borrow it.

Last year, Walmart Canada reported gross revenue of $6 billion, up 1.8% from the previous year. \n \n In 2022, Home Depot brought in approximately 12 billion Canadian dollars of sales. \n \n Costco In Canada and through its international ventures the company generated 34.9 billion and 35.3 billion U.S. dollars, respectively. \n \n you get the point. \n \nThis is scary \n \nA foreign company in Canada does not have a specific time frame to keep its profits in a Canadian bank; however, according to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), most business records, including profits, must be kept for a minimum of six years from the end of the last tax year they relate to. \n \nKey points to remember: \n \nNo legal restriction on withdrawal: \n \nThere is no law that forces a foreign company to keep its profits in Canada for a specific duration. \n \nThis is just a few of the companies from the US that take $100 billion+ out of our economy every year and put it in US banks. why do we let them. they should keep that money in canada. interest rates for loans would go down. \n \n \nAI Overview from google \n \nWhen banks have more money, interest rates tend to go down. This is because a larger money supply increases the amount of credit available, which lowers the cost of borrowing.

I was a diesel truck mechanic couldn't even afford food and borrowing gas to get home from work Americans are tax slaves why are we so poor is so messed up

That's Total B.S. saying Canada is protecting the Border , Yeah right, noway the Governor is going to do anything for America, except Borrow Millions and never Repay the u s.

BTW, its not about border security with Canada, just trade imbalance and the fact that Canadians expect America to pay for their defense when we are having trouble paying the interest on the debt from the money we borrow to give you and the rest of the world. Times are changing my friend. Time to find a different sugar daddy I guess.

Thing is the oh so bright Kamala went there and told them they could come and our constitution and laws didn't apply to them. It was all set up to destroy America and then if you remember Joe signed something with Mexico and Canada giving up sovernty-to our border. Venezuela president a bad boy. He let his prison open for them to come here and Mexico agreed to let them all come through. Drug and human trafficking. I hate it for these ppl but the USA is broke. We borrow money every year to send money and aide to other country's. Why? They all have rich lands .they sell it out to China then the citizens suffer just like here in the USA. Gov. Needs to be giving us a check each year for what they sell out of the earth here. Only the Gov.officals get kickbacks. It's theft in all sense.

There is in fact no actual housing shortage in the USA whatsoever. The problem is that that wealthy individuals have strong incentives to park excess capital in real estate and landlords have strong incentives to maintain asset values through cash flow potential (appraised through $/sq.ft rent revenues). What ends up happening in both cases is that you end up with lots of empty houses sitting collecting dust artificially gaining value due to scarcity, and with rentals, you end up with perpetually inflated rents and vacancy rates that are as high as a landlord can tolerate just to maintain the appearance of value to the lenders. Often these owners will borrow more money and use an apartment that might be 40% vacant as the collateral for the lender and go buy another building and so on. What people don't penalize is the fact that that 40% vacant building with 60% rented out at above fair value gets treated on the balance sheet to the bank as if its 90% rented out from an asset value perspective thereby setting the asset price artificially high. Simple legislation of the tax code can fix this issue and unlock lots of sidelined housing. All we have to do is progressively tax 2nd 3rd 4th ect. homes higher and higher rates that essentially cancel out the asset gains, and do something similar for vacant units in a apartment building. \nIts just at the core a case of the rich hoarding something that has been made artificially rare. On top of all of this, because of how valuable properties have become, there are now many interests that capitalize on the entire process of building new housing that make it ever more expensive. Our taxes are funding numerous regulators that stymie new development, while the developers have to then hire numerous attorneys and planners to pitch a project and litigate it through the cities to get approvals. This can take over 10 years in a major city. All this contributes to the ridiculous costs of building these days.

My parents were immigrants. They did it legally. They became citizens and they paid taxes and worked harder than borrowed mules coz they wanted a good life for their kids. The absolute audacity to allow ppl in with no checks, no paper work ,no due process, insults every single migrant that followed the law. This is wrong. Wake up.

Can we borrow trump for a couple months?

Indian govt must grow some kahoonas and reciprocate the same conditions and hoops for tourists from usa, UK, Australia, nz, Europe that are subjected on indians. Its incredible how foreign tourists are allowed to do other things and get away scot free. Bjp is celebrating us soil in Bengaluru which speaks volumes of their commitment to indian pride and hypocrisy. The least india can do is ask for the visa fees back or atleast part of it. With a failed judiciary, corrupt real estate, benami rule, failed police , failed education, children are being born into state and central debt. Who is going to pay for the endless borrowing ? No sane aspiring youth would choose to live in this mess.

If Chinese Indians and jews immigrants leave us & canada . Every thing will come to a stand still. In usn Canada local population barely complete its bachelors n technologically they are totally illiterate ....Every think is built on borrowed talent as compared to Russia india n china

The big problem is that Canada increased immigration without having the infrastructure for them. Immigrants tend to move to major populations like Toronto, Vancouver, etc because there are typically more jobs, so these towns had their numbers increase faster than our social net could handle. Add in long-term Governmental reductions in spending on things like housing, healthcare, education with more people to service, and you end up with the housing crisis and inflation that we have.\n\nI understand why immigration was pushed; it was partially because people are collateral on the world stage. The larger your population, the more a country can borrow because you have more people to pay back those loans through taxation. It should work ... As long as you have the infrastructure to support the new citizens.\n\nImmigration needs to be dramatically reduced from current levels for a few years while we work to get up to speed for the populace we have.

It's the scammers in India that promise the illegals a better life in the US. They sell everything they own and borrow money to pay the scammers not knowing what they are in for when they get across.

Federal mismanagement continues unabated. As usual, the response will be too little, too late, and it won't be their fault. Worse, most of the expenses accrued will be with borrowed money that we, our children, and our grandchildren will be paying interest on for decades.
