Shouldn't we have regular intelligence in Canada before we start making artificial intelligence.

The chemtrail nutjobs are going to lose their minds even more.

If you can't find workers, pay more and people will come. It's not a labour shortage. It's an abundance of greed.

My baby boomer parents worked in factories because they could afford a family and buy a house. I don't work in that factory because wages are stagnant. There's no incentive for employers to increase them when you can simply exploit overseas workers who will work for a pittance.

There is no labour shortage.

I doubt it.

Didn't our PM just say yesterday that we have a labour shortage?

If only there was a solution! People are struggling to afford having children and a work/life balance. What in earth could they need? So mysterious.

Singh should be on that list. I figure he'll jump ship after his pension. It's all he cares about at this point.

Something something meritocracy...

Billionaires shouldn't exist. It's obscene.

Just say "impossible". Buying housing in Canada is impossible, unless you are wealthy.

Nobody should go hungry. Hopefully these kids get fed and get great education.

And when they are older, I hope they can afford rent. Otherwise they may end up homeless, and hungry again.

Landlords. Housing as a commodity in general.

Should be law that they get paid minimum wage - whatever the average is between all the provinces.
