For real. It’s like the feds are actively trying to radicalize young people.
Look at the voters voting Liberal, its mostly boomers who want their housing value to keep rising.
Liberals try to straddle the two, they pretend to care about climate change to appease the youth while gaslighting them about housing and wage debasement, and they target boomers with people like Gregor Robinson who have dramatically raised home prices in Vancouver.
It's mostly boomers who didn't want to submit to the Yankees.
The kiddies look at the US and say they want it.
Yet its the same MPs in power who decided we didnt need to diversify our economy globally. No business case, indigenous rights over pipelines, and slow productivity investment for the last decade as they talk about inventing a green economy.
While those are all good things, they really didn't do any of those.
Indentured servitude only to be permitted in remote locations with minimal inspection options, say feds.
Out of sight, out of mind. Same as it ever was. Catering to agri-corps costs a lot less political capital than trying to restructure the system.
Seeing how temporary foreign workers are abused even in the heart of major cities like Vancouver or Toronto, I don’t even want to imagine what the working conditions are like on these farms. Allowing this program to expand, when we can be reasonable confident that it will lead to human rights abuses, is wrong. The feds need to get their shit together
