You should check out Burnside Gorge in Victoria BC. Between the City of Victoria's entire stock of Homeless shelters (in this one neighbourhood) and the city's entire stock of Sikh temples, Punjabi restaurants and East Indian clothing and grocery stores, it is a total sh*tpit - where people can't sleep at night because the Sikh punks are racing their cars up and down Burnside all night. Any whyte people who can, move out - leaving only the poorest, who can't afford to move, the homeless and the Punjabis.
Uses us-vs-them framing ('whyte people' vs Punjabis/Sikhs) and describes neighborhood decline through ethnic demographic lens, with secondary fear/threat elements about safety and displacement.

Canada has done nothing but put out propaganda. Canada is a Liberal country that interferes with our elections. Now if I want to know how to adjust my fake eyebrows or how to talk tough while having a small population and only one neighbor that happens to be an ally and the world's super power then I'll ask Trudeau and the Canadians for their input. In the meantime, their people don't work and the Canadians depend on us for their rights to the sea since they don't spend much on defense. America will win. Canada won't exist without America.
Asserts American superiority and Canadian dependence, frames Canada negatively in comparison to the US, and critiques Canadian government as propagandistic.
