“This (law) is the most significant rollback of refugee rights in Canada in over a decade,” said Adam Sadinsky of the Canadian Association of Refugee Lawyers. “It’s disappointing that Canada has joined other countries in a race to the bottom in terms of protection of rights for migrants and vulnerable people.”

My post didn't talk about running the government like a business. The business you compared our government to, was American bullshit. What you put forward was essentially "We shouldn't run the government based on providing social services, because in failed communist states in the past that's lead to horrible results!": "We shouldn't think about good governance/stability/order, because America's banks are capitalist shitholes that I worked for and supported as an American shill!". Canada's government is based on peace order and good governance, and running a government which is massively overburdened/unable to meet the needs of Canadians is antithetical to that core Canadian value.

So fuck off with your america-centric viewpoint.

And frankly, if you're working for an American company, while America has become a fascist state? You're supporting American genocides and war crimes. You're supporting an America that wants to destroy Canada. You are tolerating things that no moral person would tolerate, and you deserve vitriol for your acquiescence.

I'm amazed that you could read a post that specifically says "we should NOT run the government like a business", and then lists SEVERAL reasons WHY we should NOT run the government like a business, and then conclude that, in fact, I'm advocating running the government like a business.

You're so blind with rage that you've:

  1. apparently forgotten how to read

  2. don't even realize that I'm not arguing with you and that we're actually on the same side of this issue

I'm saying this with love to you as my brother:

Your anger is making you extremely stupid, and you need to step back and cool down. Do some self reflection. Your brain is of no use to anyone, including you, when you're this high on blind rage.

No quarter for fascists. Enjoy your American paycheque for selling out Canada, working for a fascist US organisation. But don't expect other Canadians to tolerate you, or to give a shit about your examples/thoughts regarding working for a fascist state's pin up organisations.

CANADA's banks are run differently. As evidenced by the lack of bank failures/bailouts that you didn't bother to stipulate initially were AMERICAN failures, and are the product of a FAILED fascist states implementation of stuff that's totally different than what we have in Canada. Don't drag an entire Canadian industry just because you're a fascist supporting traitor.
