Downtown Toronto people just call themselves leftists. They're actually super conservative and love the status quo. Downtown is just a bunch of wealthy, young champagne liberals who have no fucking clue what life is like for those of us who didn't get a leg up from our parents, and who's liberalism ends the moment they have to sacrifice anything to help someone on the rung below them
You're clearly never been near the St. Lawrence, or Reagent park. Both downtown areas, both predominantly filled with not-wealthy immigrants. Fuck off with your stereotyping, you know shit about downtown TO.
Typical attitude. I mean you can gentrify an immigrant area, keep a few around to make you feel liberal and still get to tell people to fuck off cause they don't agree with your view. In truth it's the downtown people who don't realize that the world exists North of bloor and treat everyone outside that bubble like you talk to me.
A few? Once again, have you ever actually been here? Spend some time in St. Lawrence, or Regent Park, or Homewood, or Bleaker, or Beverly, or any of a multitude of lower wealth downtown areas.
I'm talking to you sternly because you spouted complete bullshit about a large and diverse population of people, most of whom are far from wealthy.
