Yeah I don’t mind him either, but that’s the thing, I don’t particularly like him and never have. He’s just another stooge in a suit serving corporate interests.
Liberals and Conservatives are both serve their corporate masters, but the liberals do it with a rainbow paint job and I prefer that paint job to the conservative’s selfish dickheadery.
Once again: thank you Quebec and the Bloc Québécois for fucking up the seat count enough to prevent us from becoming a two party system.
Tell us you don't understand the cons vs the libs...
Why has nothing been done about housing on a federal level? He pretends to care, but he doesn’t.
I’m no Fuck Trudeau sticker bearer, but the more you make me think about it the less I like him. :p
It's largely a provincial problem. To which, of course, you'll say, "But immigration!"
Here's the thing, though: In order to build homes, you need laborers (there's a shortage of construction workers). To get laborers, you need immigration. With that immigration, though, you need to house them. Catch-22.
The thing Trudeau can (and should) do, though, is fix the immigration targeting. Enough with the international students (though, that's also provincial, as institutions are literally only staying afloat due to fees from such students)!
