Confused Canada ...

[TSIPP]

Wheatking, I’m serious get your google goggles on, there’s lots of bullshit out in the web but you’re a smart guy I’m sure you can figure out fact from fiction.

[Wheatking]

The numbers aren’t perfect but Canada does send out well over 5 billion a year in foreign aid and sounds like were going to bump it up to almost 8 billion, and immigrants are costing over 20 billion a year.

Don’t even wear a hat let alone have a pointy one but thanks for your concern wheatking.

According to the info graphic we spend over 15 billion on foreign aid, a number not even grounded in reality. I get that maybe we should reduce foreignaid and specifically to some undesirable countries, but when your numbers are blatant lie to rouse hatred and anger, how is the conversation even supposed to start. And you just cant stop yourself with the lies with immigration costing 20 billion a year. WTF, another number pulled out of your ass.

The point is there is a lot of Canadian tax dollars that get thrown around over seas lately to “causes” that are totally against what Canadians here hold as values and human rights issues.
It’s money Canadian tax payers can’t afford to give away when our own war vets , seniors and even First Nations are needing more assistance.
That and let alone the huge loss in our pulse and canola markets lately to crop producers and yet zero mention in last budget. Ohh but the supply management got a boast , forgot about that.
Anyway , with all the virtue signalling being done it is confusing to see where Canadian tax dollars disappear to in far off lands that will contribute zero back to Canadians.

For the most part I agree with everything you said. But why where we not helping natives and vets when the conservatives where in power. This is not about one or the other, this is about responsible spending and spreading lies certainly wont help our case.

Wow the liberal spin DR is here. Well it’s simple yes the conservatives were cutting back all over the place. First Nations were no different that pastures.

The difference is Trudeau posing away billions to foreign bullshit. If he wanted to spend spend in canada.

Aren't you the one who voted Liberal. We should be calling you flip flop. Probably wore nothing but flip flops in Florida, to represent your Liberal leanings.

Wheatking I’m not sure why you can’t find what’s it costing taxpayers it’s pretty easy to find.
What’s up with all the name calling it really doesn’t bother me but it’s usually a typical liberal tactic to hide the truth.

"In a recent report, he estimated that the Trudeau government’s spending on foreign aid as a share of national income is lower than any federal government in several decades."

Stephen Brown, a Canadian aid expert who is currently at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in Amsterdam.

This is confirmed by a recent OECD report.

Well a quick googling says the last 10 years is pretty consistent at a little over 5 billion per year in foreign aid.

Give the guy a break someday you might get it figured out and vote conservative and like it. At least he has the balls to admit he made a mistake.

I have voted conservative/sask party in every election since I have been able to vote over the past 25 years. What I am getting at is that lying to make a meme is not going to help anyone. And if you guys aren't able to critique and evaluate what is coming across your computer as propaganda, perhaps you are the problem. For the most part I agree with most of what is said, just some of the stuff you guys put out there are blatant lies.
