Thanks for proving me wrong DML. Glad that you are willing to acknowledge what country we live in, warts and all. Otherwise, it was exactly what I said it would be.
There are still some missing data points though.

And this was before covid.

Canada is a G30 country maskarading as a G7.

It might be interesting to see those same results(most of which are highly subjective I might add) separated out by indigenous and everyone else.

Add to that we have a whole part of society thinking they can life like welfare , stay home and live off the government tit and tax payer money .
Canada once was ok , but I fear what the numbers and deficits will be in the next two years .
A non productive society and weak resource base economy is a train wreck waiting to happen

It is a separation of productive from non productive waiting to happen.

My son fits in to a lot of those categories. So, more than most would think I believe are mainstream.

Healthcare and social programs.....

Maybe that is why so many "refugees" want to come to Canada.

Can you imagine what that windfall alone must feel like for them.

Just show up....

and then protest for more , a year later

I wonder if some of those results are from the anti-social gaming craze.

Well, obviously, it is to keep the American citizens in, so they don't all escape to some Socialist utopia in central or south America. If it is as bad as you guys make it out to be, and Trump is so terrible, they must be trying to escape by the millions.

Just like all the leftist crybaby celebrities that said they were all going to flee to Canada the day after Trump got in
4 years later not a single one “left”

Can't do that...would be RACIST, singling out problem segment of society. That would label some, but might wake the rest up!
