Like, how long do they usually keep people?

Except the report came from a Liberal government office. I also wonder why Lemmy is so far-left, despite it being a free-speech platform (where ideally it should be in the center).

That's because it was the fault of socialism in Canada, not capitalism. Having more and more socialist/communist programs creates and bigger and bigger government which in turn results in more and more taxes and people being more dependent on the government. In fact, I believe that we need more capitalism in Canada.

Idk what getting food at night looks like for you but if you’re banging around making noise in the kitchen at 11pm and wanting your family to put up with it with eye masks and ear plugs is selfish. Your home isn’t a dorm. Personally that would drive me insane but you could be quiet and she is being overly dramatic.

Ok. Overly dramatic? I don't know. Some of my siblings sleep on the same floor as the kitchen on a couch in a room with no doors (because we have a lot of people in a small house). I try to be quiet and not make too much light though and not to go to the kitchen when they're already sleeping.

Communism is just people trying to create heaven on earth but without God.

I don't know. I once thought I had ADHD, but my mom said she didn't think so (and managed to convince me). Plus, I don't really like the idea of having to take meds like that (and I'd rather fix my habits instead).

Nah, they’re never going to want to give any type of personal contact to a random person they don’t know, even if it’s just a work email.

To be fair, every time you call someone, the number shows up on the recipient's call history, but I get your point.

I’ve been working since I was 14.

Man, you are lucky. I regret not getting a job during the summer in high school.

We have coop and internships, but at least for coop I first have to take a special course in order to get into the coop program. I also attended the job fair at my school, but there was basically nothing for CS.

Oh. I thought they'd just use email (since everyone has email nowadays). I feel like I'm just actively screwing my chances of getting hired. :(

Can you explain?

Carney and Freeland have ties to the Canadian government sure, but Carney has better credence to say he is less politically minded and has a resumé filled with global experience, especially in contrast with Poilievre

Ok, true, but I believe Poilievre has a lot more of experience being a minister than Carney.

With respect to the response to tarriffs, when you say fix the border, I have only one question for you: How many illegal immigrants and how much in illegal drugs does the CBSA, border czar and whatnot need to catch in order to satisfy Trump enough to call off tariffs?

Too little and Trump will say Canada is not doing enough and letting crime slip through. Too much and Trump will insist Canada is still full of crime. And the trade war itself was started over one suitcase worth of fentanyl. Hopefully you can see that accepting the bully’s premise on the border is unwinnable for Canada.

Good question. Suppose that Poilievre wins the next election and actually manages to stop most of the crime in Canada and greatly secure our borders to intercept most of the drugs going from Canada to the US and catch most of the illegal immigrants (however I believe bringing crime to 0% and making it completely impossible for illegal immigrants and drugs to get through is literally impossible), and yet Donald Trump still says that Canada is full of crime and goes on with the tariffs. In that case, we'd still have less crime and more secure borders. Plus, maybe it could be possible to negotiate with Trump like how Danielle Smith has done?

Plus, it is quite risky to have most of your trade being done with only 1 single country. I believe that Canada should stop relying on the US so much for trade anyways and trade more with other countries.

Edit: I also forgot to mention that there are a lot of criminals who get into Canada legally as refugees because of our bad border policies and that during the previous Conservative government, nobody was complaining about our borders or the immigration. So, maybe we can just revert to what we previously had before Trudeau?
