BLEAK FUTURE FOR YOUNG CANADIANS

Re: New poll reveals generational divide over national pride ahead of Canada Day, online, June 30

Postmedia reported that a poll by Liaison Strategies revealed that only 25 per cent of Canadians aged 18 to 34 said they were very proud to be Canadian.

Young people face a future where they will never own their own home, as foreign investors buying Canadian homes have skyrocketed the prices with inflation of all homes in Canada.  A Canada that blocks oil pipelines and is soon facing collapse of the entire auto manufacturing sector in Canada has a grim economic future.

Young Canadians cannot even get entry-level jobs in Canada because of mismanaged immigration levels. Canada now has the bleakest future for young Canadians in its history.

There is not even hope on the horizon for young Canadians, as for the first time in Canada’s history, young Canadians are now contemplating that their “best future” may be outside Canada.

Re: Justin Trudeau lectures Finns on immigration, stresses focus on ‘shared values’, online, June 29

I nearly spit out my coffee when reading that former failed prime minister Justin Trudeau was over in Finland lecturing them on   … wait for it … immigration.

After years of unvetted refugee crossings at Roxham Road in Quebec and Emerson, Man., turning proud to wear the red serge RCMP officers into bellhops, some Finns actually paid money to listen? Talk about two giant leaps backward for peoplekind.
