Why should refugees get better health care than Canadian taxpayers? I'm referring to physio and vision care which are not free to Canadians.
Emergency health care yes, anything else no. Especially charged criminals who then apply as refugees. How about the 35,000 'students' who want to overstay their visas.
Critiques government policy on refugee healthcare benefits relative to Canadian taxpayers and raises concerns about visa overstays.

How about that government suport Canadian financially to and encourage them to bring babies? It would be cheaper for the government to do so and it keeps the fabric of Canada by Canadian themselves rather than bring so many immigrants who do not integrate in the society and they come to invade , destroy ,and rob the country and peiple because their religion encourage them to do so.
Proposes alternative policy while expressing fear about immigrant integration and making unsubstantiated claims about religious motivations for crime.

While I am going to financially suffer from this, I want to see our country start new deals with Europe and Asia. Until tRump is gone and ALL of his minions have left office, I don't want to see any deals with the US. \nWe knew Trump wanted to destroy Canada financially. This was NOT about fentynal.\nWe have enough wood, enough oil, and enough resources to establish good relationships around the world. And sustain fellow Canadians.
Combines personal economic impact disclosure with criticism of US trade policy and advocacy for alternative international partnerships.

Gotta be careful defending yourself in Canada Tyler. Canadians aren’t allowed to carry weapons of any kind for defence be it mace, knives, batons, brass knuckles and definitely not guns. It’s even illegally to wear stab proof or bullet proof vests without being law enforcement or security guards while working only. A real shame considering the crime rates in major cities and isolated towns.
The comment critiques Canadian weapons and self-defense laws as overly restrictive, linking them to crime concerns.

The question is, what is being done now to solve this Liberal made crisis? How much lasting damage will it do to Canada? Is it fixable?
The question is, what is being done now to solve this Liberal made crisis? How much lasting damage will it do to Canada? Is it fixable?

If Quebec wants to end that program, that is they choose. However, you can't just offer something like that then cut it off with no warning. Those who are in it should be grandfathered in, or at least given the opportunity to be grandfathered in. And then end the program. Just cutting it off like that is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen, that's something the americans would do. We are not americans, we are not nazi terrorists like them.
Criticizes abrupt program termination as unfair and unethical, advocating for grandfathering existing participants while supporting program closure.

Great speech and right move, but I'm sure hospitals, and more specifically anesthesiologists, would strongly disagree with wanting to wipe fentanyl from the face of the earth ?
