Carney on housing and immigration: “We made mistakes and let in far too many people...We did not have capacity, housing or social services...Canadians did not get the education they deserved”...proceeds to ask us to vote for him and Sean Fraser anyways.

And why do you have the co chair of the century initiative as an advisor then Carney?

[u/yycTechGuy → u/patrick_bamford_]

I love how the right clings to whataboutisms to try to scare people away from voting for Carney. Meanwhile PP's past is littered with cringe - crypto currency, trucker convoy, antivax support, etc. The list goes on and on.

[u/apthereddit → u/patrick_bamford_]

Isn’t the century initiative about 1.5% annual growth, way lower than Trudeau (and Harper) immigration levels? I was suspicious based on everything that’s said about them and read through their plan, and it spoke more about how Canada needs to build up infrastructure / social services asap in order to facilitate growth at that rate (implying we can’t support it right now)

[u/Unlikely-Winter-4093 → u/apthereddit]

100 million people by 2100 is the goal. Population needs to grow by 800,000 people year over year, growth percentages would be lower and lower the closer we get. This is completely unsustainable in our current state.

[u/yycTechGuy → u/Unlikely-Winter-4093]

Do you understand math and exponential growth versus linear growth ?

To go from 40M people in 2025 to 100M people in 2100 is a growth rate of 1.2% annually. If a country doesn't grow its economy collapses. Ask Japan. Canada's natural birthrate should be 1% all by itself.

Yes Canada needs to get its infrastructure in place to achieve this. Duh. Yes, it will, under Carney anyway.

[u/Unlikely-Winter-4093 → u/yycTechGuy]

We've been growing our population by 2-3% over the last few years, well over your 1.2%, these numbers need to slow right down or we'll be way over the 100 million mark in half the time frame. Right now these numbers are completely unsustainable and they've done it with malice, they're trying to lower your standard of living, that's the whole point of the Century Initiative. If we had a somewhat competent government, we would have a higher standard of living, then, maybe our own people would start having more kids and we we wouldn't rely on bringing in over a million people every year when we realistically could have taken in half of that and been in much better shape. You're insane if you think Carney will be any different than Trudeau, his platform is the same, with the addition of everything he stole from Poilievre that he has no plants on actually implementing. I can't wait for next economic boom under Poilievre, the country will finally be able to pick itself back up again.

[u/No_Twist_1751]

This is the same guy who said we need immigration he's so full of BS

[u/mhyquel → u/No_Twist_1751]

We do need immigration, though.

[u/igotacoolname46 → u/mhyquel]

The government could have tried other methods before being in millions of immigrants who are invasive to our culture and who are disrespectful of the people who were here before them. There is a reason our population is not growing here and instead of addressing that the government brought in immigrants. And the problem with immigration is that if left un checked by negligence government like ours than the numbers will never stop growing, normal population growth are the citizens giving birth, not mass immigration. To many people stop at “the population is not growing, let’s bring in immigrants” instead of asking why people are not having kids. Well let’s look at history, people have kids when incentives are involved and when conditions are stable, people would be fine living their lives and having whatever number of kids they want, but the government wants the population to grow so they can become more powerful, to do that the government needs to put policies in place to encourage child birth. It’s only fair if the government are primary ones to want population to go up, so instead of letting millions of immigrants in and giving them millions dollars worth of tax credits, why not redirect that to Canadian pockets to encourage child north, say if you have kids you’ll have this guaranteed amount of money to help every month. Why doesn’t the government put in place better maternity laws, better pay while on maternity leave. We have the funds yet they are being redirected to immigrants before Canadians. The economy also has to improve, no wants an extra mouth to feed right now for logical reasons, maybe the prices wouldn’t be so high had we not let this unnatural population increase of immigrants coming in. And the immigration needs to change, I agree we need immigrants but they should be prioritized second over Canadians as it’s our government and their duty is to us first. Instead of letting immigrants in for the sake of being multicultural, immigrants should be let in based on the currents country demands. For example, housing crisis prioritize letting builders, contractors, and trade people in. You say none want to come here? Then make the Canadian government incentive it. We definitely don’t need current immigration, all it has done is hurt Canada, with temporary foreign workers who take all jobs, then schools are filled with immigrants, I couldn’t go because my uni I applied to over accepted students by 1400, so no room on campus. And you who they over accepted immigrants, oh jolly. Immigrants are also disrespectful, rude, and invasive. I go to some places and there’s nothing but Chinese words and Chinese people who speak Chinese, that’s the definition of being invasive.

[u/yycTechGuy → u/igotacoolname46]

Paragraphs are a thing. So is TLDR.

[u/igotacoolname46 → u/yycTechGuy]

You don’t have to read it, in politics you should be willing to read long paragraphs as they are a complex topic, I am not going to sit here and simplify it for a lazy person.

[u/mhyquel → u/igotacoolname46]

Holy shit, tell me how you really feel.

[u/igotacoolname46 → u/mhyquel]

How do you mean, I just told you

[u/igotacoolname46 → u/mhyquel]

Are you implying that I am some how racist because I am unhappy about the immigration in Canada. I don’t see these things out of hate, rather my experiences and observations. Please tell me how immigration is good in Canada?

[u/No_Twist_1751 → u/mhyquel]

I agree but not Liberal immigration that's way too much

[u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It]

Mr. Plagiarize strikes again.
Then he brings back the same guy that fucked up housing and immigration.

[u/yycTechGuy → u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It]

Where is your PhD ? How many years did it take to get ?

Do you understand what was behind the criticisms of Dr. Carney's PhD references ? Obviously you don't or you wouldn't be labeling him "Mr. Plagiarize", you'd be explaining how he messed up a few references.

Did you go to university ? Ever defended a Masters or PhD thesis ? I thought not.

[u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It → u/yycTechGuy]

Have a Snickers.
They guy is a liar and a fraud and it's evident that you are losing your mind trying to deny that, so you lash out at people on the internet.
Oh, and my wife has a PhD....she didn't cheat on it though.

[u/yycTechGuy → u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It]

You guys are hilarious.

[u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It → u/yycTechGuy]

Then being here in this sub just makes you a troll.
Done with you.

[u/yycTechGuy → u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It]

I've voted Conservative many times in the past. Peter MacKay would have been a much better leader.

[u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It → u/yycTechGuy]

I was waiting for that. Usually you guys put that in the first line of your reply.
"I am a conservative but...."
LMAO!!!

[u/yycTechGuy → u/Stunned-By-All-Of-It]

Yeah, it goes something like this "I am a Conservative but I'm not going to vote for a party that has a leader like PP". It's called critical thinking. It's voting for the best leader instead of blindly sticking to party loyalty. Shoot me.

[u/Business-Hurry9451]

The Liberal party is like a wife beater, when you threaten to leave they're all "Ah, come on baby, I love you, I'll never do it again. I swear I'll change!" and then when you take them back it's "Shut up bitch!" and *BAM* right in the mouth. Canada has to kick the Liberals to the curb or they WILL kill us.

[u/GrowthReasonable4449]

Voting for carney is like shitting your pants and changing your shirt.

[u/eggbenedictcucumbers]

Commie Carney is like the guy who thinks good sex is pumping away while you’re making a grocery list in your head wondering when he’ll be done.

Poilievre is like the guy who is all sweet and nerdy but holds you down and makes you cum until your calves cramp.

[u/Business-Hurry9451 → u/eggbenedictcucumbers]

I have so many questions about your social life.

[u/JojoGotDaMojo → u/eggbenedictcucumbers]

Idk wtf this is but upvoted!

[u/CapitanChaos1 → u/eggbenedictcucumbers]

Bro...touch some grass lol

[u/xo_harlo → u/eggbenedictcucumbers]

Most well adjusted Conservative

[u/ExtraGlutens]

Currently working on diploma #3 which would put me at 3.5 😂 Education has become a bit of joke in this country, especially at the university level, the 0.5 I have no interest in finishing. Don't reckon that they're building all these new campuses and creating new programs for us. I do feel bad for the foreign students who paid several times what I paid for business administration since it wasn't worth what I paid.

[u/eddieesks]

Holy fuck he better be careful the liberals might think this is Poilievre and call him an intolerant bigot. Then when they find out it’s the head Carney of the liberal clown show, it will be now fine to say this stuff.
