Yeah, I have. I doubt all the millions of Canadians in food lines and living under plastic tarps, burning cardboard in a juice can to stay warm agree with you. I see the same squalor and hopelessness in Trudeauvilles that I saw in Afghanistan. These people are broken, hungry and hurting. There are over 30 Trudeauvilles in Halifax alone. How many in bigger cities? How many more people is that than in 2014? It is only going to get worse.
From what CCP run fake news website are you getting this drivel? You are off by orders of magnitude. There are nowhere near millions of Canadians in food line. There was a total of 2 million individual VISITS throughout 2023. There are nowhere near millions of Canadians homeless and living "under sheets". There are only in the realm of 30,000 homeless Canadians. There are not 30 "Trudeauvilles" in Halifax. I'm not even sure if you are referring to tent encampments or the new shelters, but neither involves Trudeau, and there are only 6 tent encampments in Halifax.
New topic.
As far as 'shitholes', that's a personal opinion the poster is allowed to make. You may disagree, rant, cajole and denigrate the position, but that's just your opinion. It hold no more or no less status that someone else's opinion. Respect it as much as you expect respect for yours. For a little while yet, we are still free to think what we want, say what we want and feel comfortable doing it. Government censorship is already here, let's not go rushing it down the road to losing personal opinion also. That will come soon enough. You can eat as much as you want, live as extravagant as you want, but if the government has its boot heel on your throat and is controlling your destiny, can take your home and food by cancelling you, you live in a shithole.
Respectively, no. Just, no. While there may be SOME subjectivity in the finer details of exactly when/where a country crosses the line into "shithole", the term nonetheless has a common and objective definition that Canada, and countries like it, are no where even close to meeting. Comparing countries by various metrics is a favourite pastime of many individuals and professional institutions alike. Just look at all the different indexes I shared. This isn't a very subjective topic.
