Since taxes seem to be biggest interest. This is latest stat for average household: 40% to taxes and 32% to living (home, food, transportation) with taxes expect to go up even more under current government. And FYI, weather in Vancouver is mild but has one of the highest standards of living and homelessness in Canada. And we don’t have “free” healthcare it’s socialized. So going to clinic for basic check up is ok but anything more there are long wait times with many choosing to go out of country to get treatments. It’s important to be mindful of the propaganda about Canada or any country really. I love my country but it’s not a wonderland.

Some encouraging news.\nThe Canadian Supreme Court just recently ruled the “safe third country agreement” with the U.S. violates the Canadian charter of rights and freedoms. The Canadian government has six months to dissolve the agreement or appeal, which is unlikely with the current Trudeau administration, and the current Republican Party immigration hardliners in power in Washington.

Nice to see that Fox is starting to cover the utter ineptitude of the current liberal government in Canada.  After all, our national broadcaster (CBC, short for crap broadcasting corporation) has been fixated on the Trump administration since day 1.
