Whoops, you misspelled "Capitalism." Capitalism is the socially, economically and ecologically unsustainable system that creates all the problems of inequality, violence and corruption. Bad politicians like neoLib Trudeau and PP and the Cons are just symptoms.
The sad part is every major world leader knows this is the future of all nations. This Is just the beginning of the recession/depression coming. Trust me it's gonna get worse.
Exactly. The insanely high increases in the cost of housing, food, utilities, gas, insurance, is happening everywhere - Canada, America, UK, Australia etc.
Our immigration policy causes our population to explode at a rate of half million every year. This alone causes a shortage of everything, including housings, jobs, food, income and so on. Also our salary or wage is not growing enough to keep up with inflation due to cheaper labour influx from tons of new immigrants every year. Our immigration policy only help greedy rich business rather than average citizens. We should change our immigration policy. Otherwise Canada will turn into a disaster.
It started with the introduction of neoliberal economics in the late 1970’s. The era of Reagan, Thatcher, Mulroney etc. Documentary: Requiem for the American (Canadian) Dream on RUclips.
I walk by a food bank line up every Saturday morning: and not a single English speaking Canadian: all foreigners. Even our down and poor folks are being replaced.
Lots of international students go there. I stopped donating. If you come abroad as a student you know how much money you have to pay. Don't abuse the system. So dishonest.
Food banks don't work anymore because in the past they were used as a last resort and a stop gap. A person would do all they could before going to one. Because the attitude is nonexistent among the new migrants the system is overwhelmed.
Poverty was cut in half by the Trudeau government, in terms of the number of Canadians living in poverty, under the Harper government. You would do well to actually do some reading. Assuming you can read.
Food banks aren’t for any international students at all, as they agreed to bring enough funds beforehand to cover all their expenses during their temporary stay, including food.
Something seriously needs to be done about this food crisis because if the Food Bank collapses it will be a horrible disaster for low income housholds.
Want to do something seriously? Help change the system, start locally, away from bloody capitalism. Try One Small Town initiative, based on Ubuntu Contributionism. Free and voluntary to join, and certainly free and voluntary to read up on. What have you got to lose? Already life is getting crazy unaffordable. Capitalism is in a death grip, but we can change it if we unite along common goals to end the oppressive system once and for all, step by step, town by town.
@@Roof_Pizza Our once great country being flooded with illegal aliens is a Provincial matter ?? Gee learn something new every day. Why do we have a Federal government again ?
You think born and raised young Canadians want to birth children in the most brutal years of Late Stage Capitalism and the outcomes of massive inequality, private corporation profiteering, privatization of basic needs like housing, healthcare and education, and no future because fossil fuel industry is still milking out as much market dominance and profit as they can in their sun setting industry? No, not a very bright future for born and raised Canadians. Unless enough Canadians get on board with a system change away from toxic capitalism towards a well-being steady-state economy based on worker co-operatives, mutual aid networks, sharing and repairing, and rebuilding the commons, Canada will continue to see declines in living quality, just like nearly every other country on Earth. Do you really want humans to go down in history as the only species not to save itself because it wasn't 'cost-effective'?
It's gonna sound racist, but neither Canada or it's universities are doing enough to make sure that international students have the the ability to sustain themselves while they are here, before they're enrolled. That's adding extra strain to systems which have already been stretched thin for at least a couple of decades. My sister went to work overseas a few years ago, and she had to prove that she'd be able to support herself while in country, in order to be granted a work visa.
Jeez i wonder why... Enough is enough, send all the refugees, immigrants, and international students home. Enough is enough, nothing in this city is affordable, housing is impossible, healthcare is a joke and all the roads are complete grid lock 20 hours a day. Canada is dieing yet the government completely avoids doing the one thing that will actually help. Its a joke
You know what would solve this problem, more international students, more inflation, less wage increases and less housing 🥰 looks like we're already getting an A+ on all these
Throw in 3 or more million immigrants soon to be followed by their families during an existing cost of living and housing crisis. Although in my community which has a min. 5 year waiting list for affordable housing the thousands of recent immigrants are being housed and/or buying most homes on the market thus keeping availability almost non-existent and the prices high. A Canadian success story.
Inflation erased my charitable donations...Also i used to donate so a struggling Canadian family could eat. I'm not going to donate to feed international students that are just making the problem worse.
Canada needs to start handing out free bags of wheat. In india, the government provides free grains to the needy. Since we are now a developing country we should start doing the same.
@@nadinehope230 Maybe India doesn't have lots of non-citizens to worry about. Because their population can grow itself by having sex. Canadians seem to have forgotten how.
NO body unless your a Canadian citizen should be allowed anywhere near a food bank! These banks are for Canadians only donated by Canadians. This country is just pathetic!
When my donations to Food Bank are used by non- citizens , and items run out for vulnerable Canadians; then I will stop donating until there's a constructive action place by officials responsible for distribution of items
I am on disability. Given my $13,000 annual (Poverty line is $19,930 so I am $6030 below that modest level) income annually I have no choice but to use the food bank. I am paying 75% of my disability to rent my apartment, access transit and pay for my cell phone which is considered a necessity by my disability worker. Still, there is no additional funding for it. I had to pay an extra $100 for a medical test not covered by OHIP last week. I have been using food banks continuously for 15 years. I only buy deeply marked-down products at the grocery store.
Pay taxes to bring new immigrants Donate money to food banks so these immigrants from rich backgrounds could eat for FREE Come on guys, don't be so selfish! Diversity is our STRENGTH!!!!
Today it was announced that it will now be even easier to get canadian citiizenship which will add to our unsustainable growth. The food banks, the housing market and health care are all gonna collapse sooner than later.
I mean, I think this policy is aimed at allowing the children of original Canadians to return here if they were born to expats outside the country. It actually lets European Canadians back in. But of course, it's badly put together and will have the wrong effect.
Was fine before they let in 500,000 + immigrants a year. The working poor having to access food banks is another national disgrace. Canadians simply do not want to pay to feed their replacements.
Before Justin Trudeau, this wasn't a thing. It's now more of a "thing" than ever. Growing up I used to hear stories about Bob Rae and quickly learned that he was the poster boy for inept politicians. Well I grew up, watched Mr. Rae join the Liberals, and I now know for sure that I'm witnessing the most inept & careless government possible.
Yep. "Tax the rich, feed the poor, till there are no rich no more." And this isn't sarcasm, I truly believe that if you're making more than a million a year, say, you should be heavily taxed. At those kinds of numbers you didn't "work hard" you exploited others. Especially, especially if you're raking in tens of millions, or billions a year.
I used to donate but now I have to save money for gas to get to work.
That sucks.
But it's decent of you to donate when you could.
Hopefully you'll be in a better position aoon
not only you me too.

Yup, same here. Used to donate regularly every couple of months for about 10+ years, but nowadays, its not easy to feed my own. And with constant influx of "highly skilled and educated" I guess they can feed themselves without me.

In Australia, some universities create their own food banks for international students.
Stop the immigration for 3 years and limit the international students from India for 10 years. and start building the economy again.
How will our masters live w/o lowered labor costs lol ? May need food banks ..
The immigration is officially closed since 2015, the criminals are running it.
Too late to stop immigration now. Millions have already come in.

Indians teach each other on youtube how to game these food banks wake up Canadians.
Thank Trudeau, he'd rather feed and house his record immigrants and refugees than help Canadians, Trudeau lives like a king and we suffer
You guys elected him
@@Pineflo No they change the rule, Cons have more seats than Libs and Libs are still governing
Food banks should be for poor canadians, not freaking international students from india
Agreed. International students can make their own food banks with so many of them around.
Trudeau's legacy.....poverty in one of the world's richest countries.
Poverty was cut in half by the Trudeau government, in terms of the number of Canadians living in poverty, under the Harper government. You would do well to actually do some reading. Assuming you can read.
@@MythsScamsLies government hand outs don’t actually lower poverty
Wages have not kept up to the cost of living. Since the late 70’s. regardless of party in power.
@@MythsScamsLies 😀
Wow, delusional
Food banks aren’t for any international students at all, as they agreed to bring enough funds beforehand to cover all their expenses during their temporary stay, including food.
parasites need a host!
How can we all act like a corrupted government is normal?
Our liberal government continues to ignore all the important Canadian problems
Thank you liberal NDP voters. We all got what you voted for.
Something seriously needs to be done about this food crisis because if the Food Bank collapses it will be a horrible disaster for low income housholds.
Want to do something seriously? Help change the system, start locally, away from bloody capitalism. Try One Small Town initiative, based on Ubuntu Contributionism. Free and voluntary to join, and certainly free and voluntary to read up on. What have you got to lose? Already life is getting crazy unaffordable. Capitalism is in a death grip, but we can change it if we unite along common goals to end the oppressive system once and for all, step by step, town by town.
@@coolioso808
But not free to depart from once that initiative proves inefficient and/or repressive.
How will the millions of international “students” get fed?????
They will need to steal from their temples.
Oh GTFO - Yet theres all kinds of money for Ukraine and immigration 😒
You think we're poor now, just wait til your boy Putin takes over. You ain't seen nothing yet
lol international scammers be like: "I'm from a third world country, therefore taking food is justified!"
all the while wearing anything with a brand like supreme on it
International students have the numbers to create their own food banks
@@MelaniaRose and yet they not only use the Canadian one's, but also post about it to their fellow international students.
I am disgraced to be a part of this disgusting country. What an 8 years for my once beloved Canada.
Thank liberal and NDP voters this is the Canada they want
None of the major parties will fix any of this. We need a revamp of the entire political system.

Weird how under Justin's government so many things have fallen apart....🤔
Funny how it's a provincial thing rather than a federal thing.
@@Roof_Pizza Our once great country being flooded with illegal aliens is a Provincial matter ?? Gee learn something new every day. Why do we have a Federal government again ?
@@grandmufftwerkin9037 True but on the issue of rampant immigration the CPC is in lock step with the Liberals.
Third world country.
It is now. Not shocking. When you import the third world you become the third world.
We had over 40,000 new citizens last year in my city. We also had the lowest birth rate in two decades. It’s clear where all the food is going.
You think born and raised young Canadians want to birth children in the most brutal years of Late Stage Capitalism and the outcomes of massive inequality, private corporation profiteering, privatization of basic needs like housing, healthcare and education, and no future because fossil fuel industry is still milking out as much market dominance and profit as they can in their sun setting industry? No, not a very bright future for born and raised Canadians.
Unless enough Canadians get on board with a system change away from toxic capitalism towards a well-being steady-state economy based on worker co-operatives, mutual aid networks, sharing and repairing, and rebuilding the commons, Canada will continue to see declines in living quality, just like nearly every other country on Earth.
Do you really want humans to go down in history as the only species not to save itself because it wasn't 'cost-effective'?
It's gonna sound racist, but neither Canada or it's universities are doing enough to make sure that international students have the the ability to sustain themselves while they are here, before they're enrolled. That's adding extra strain to systems which have already been stretched thin for at least a couple of decades.
My sister went to work overseas a few years ago, and she had to prove that she'd be able to support herself while in country, in order to be granted a work visa.
International students have the numbers to create their own food bank, or the universities create one.
I used to donate but now I can barely afford to feed my own family.
Donate food to feed foreign students.I don’t think so
Jeez i wonder why... Enough is enough, send all the refugees, immigrants, and international students home. Enough is enough, nothing in this city is affordable, housing is impossible, healthcare is a joke and all the roads are complete grid lock 20 hours a day. Canada is dieing yet the government completely avoids doing the one thing that will actually help. Its a joke
You know what would solve this problem, more international students, more inflation, less wage increases and less housing 🥰 looks like we're already getting an A+ on all these
Throw in 3 or more million immigrants soon to be followed by their families during an existing cost of living and housing crisis. Although in my community which has a min. 5 year waiting list for affordable housing the thousands of recent immigrants are being housed and/or buying most homes on the market thus keeping availability almost non-existent and the prices high. A Canadian success story.
i know it's you ... justin trudeau !
Inflation erased my charitable donations...Also i used to donate so a struggling Canadian family could eat. I'm not going to donate to feed international students that are just making the problem worse.
Canada needs to start handing out free bags of wheat. In india, the government provides free grains to the needy.
Since we are now a developing country we should start doing the same.
I sure India is handing it out only to it citizens not non-citizens which are causing most of the problems in Canada.
@@nadinehope230 Go back to your country then.
Apparently they're not handing out enough wheat, because al the Indians are here taking our food.
Food is fine, prices are not
@@nadinehope230 Maybe India doesn't have lots of non-citizens to worry about. Because their population can grow itself by having sex. Canadians seem to have forgotten how.
He does everything for everyone that's not a Canadian citizen.
Hahaha, donating to food banks is putting money in the pocket of indians. No thanks.
NO body unless your a Canadian citizen should be allowed anywhere near a food bank! These banks are for Canadians only donated by Canadians. This country is just pathetic!
parasites need a host! STOP PARASITE HATE!!!!
Our local foodbank has been over run with international students!! ..
When my donations to Food Bank are used by non- citizens , and items run out for vulnerable Canadians; then I will stop donating until there's a constructive action place by officials responsible for distribution of items
Fair enough. International students can create their own food banks ( they have the numbers).
By design. Trudeau's dream coming true. Control the food Canadians eat
Sorry but students should not have access to food banks.
I am on disability. Given my $13,000 annual (Poverty line is $19,930 so I am $6030 below that modest level) income annually I have no choice but to use the food bank. I am paying 75% of my disability to rent my apartment, access transit and pay for my cell phone which is considered a necessity by my disability worker. Still, there is no additional funding for it. I had to pay an extra $100 for a medical test not covered by OHIP last week. I have been using food banks continuously for 15 years. I only buy deeply marked-down products at the grocery store.
They are covering up one key factor. International Students disproportionate gouge. STOP DECEIVING THE PUBLIC.

Show proof of canadian residency of at least 10 years. Problem solved.
how would a homeless person have that

@@wendigo53 we didn't have this problem before international students were gaming the food bank, so I don't know what to tell ya.

Free Canada from International students !

It’s like feeding birds, the more you hand out the more will show up.
Pay taxes to bring new immigrants
Donate money to food banks so these immigrants from rich backgrounds could eat for FREE
Come on guys, don't be so selfish! Diversity is our STRENGTH!!!!
it's because Trudeau, Freeland and Singh. Reduce taxes and stop printing money.
Wrong! It's because of extremely stupid, uneducated libs/ndp voters.
Canada does not print money; we do not have the same treasury/banking system as the USA.

Newcomers? we are importing poverty?
Today it was announced that it will now be even easier to get canadian citiizenship which will add to our unsustainable growth. The food banks, the housing market and health care are all gonna collapse sooner than later.
I mean, I think this policy is aimed at allowing the children of original Canadians to return here if they were born to expats outside the country. It actually lets European Canadians back in. But of course, it's badly put together and will have the wrong effect.
Was fine before they let in 500,000 + immigrants a year. The working poor having to access food banks is another national disgrace. Canadians simply do not want to pay to feed their replacements.
1.3 million last year
This country has gone downhill drastically in the last 3-4 years
I wonder what happened?

Thanks to Trudeau and JagGmeat
Before Justin Trudeau, this wasn't a thing. It's now more of a "thing" than ever. Growing up I used to hear stories about Bob Rae and quickly learned that he was the poster boy for inept politicians. Well I grew up, watched Mr. Rae join the Liberals, and I now know for sure that I'm witnessing the most inept & careless government possible.
"No system is designed for growth like we've seen"
If that isn't a succinct admission that excessive immigration is the problem, I don't know what is.
Too many illegal immigrants to feed now.Foreign students.and refugees.
parasites need a host! STOP PARASITE HATE!!!!
When I see who is lining up at the food bank I no longer donate.
Canadian are fighting for food now Thanks Trudeau
The whole political establishment is responsible, clown
We need higher taxes to make life more affordable, right Libs/NDP?
Yep. "Tax the rich, feed the poor, till there are no rich no more."
And this isn't sarcasm, I truly believe that if you're making more than a million a year, say, you should be heavily taxed. At those kinds of numbers you didn't "work hard" you exploited others. Especially, especially if you're raking in tens of millions, or billions a year.
Familys can’t feed themselves how can they donate???????????
