None of the local witnesses the court heard from this week had any contact with Lich or Barber, who are both accused of mischief and counselling others to commit mischief, among other charges.
If you organize a murder and encourage the person who commits the murder but don’t have any contact with the murder victim are you free and clear?
Barber and Lich are garbage humans who organized and encouraged the violation of the people of Ottawa.
I moved from Canada to the USA, and what I have seen is that Canada is less unequal than the US. If you are working class in Canada there is at least some social safety net. In the US the rich are richer and the poor are poorer. Canada is moving that way but still has more protections for those on the bottom.
The problem I find is that the safety net is there only if you’re rock bottom poor. If you’re lower income but barely scraping by, there’s no help for you. They are helping homeowners pay their property taxes, helping corporations with corporate welfare, and helping the poorest afford food, but if you’re just above the poverty line, you’re on your own.
What country do you think you could live in where the government would give you money?
Canada. If you’re rich and failing, they give you money. If you’re the citizen of another country, and need foreign aid, they give you money.
If you’re a struggling, working class Canadian, not so much.
My employer, a multi million dollar company, got $500k in aid. I who have $0 in my account after bills, got zero assistance during the pandemic. I had a second job at a hospital during the pandemic too, working directly for the government. What did I get out of it? I got COVID, no protections and a half a dozen co-workers dead.
You never answered my question. What country do you think gives money to its citizens like you?
Norway
So you think that Norway just gives people money?
The government hands rich people money all the time. I’m a full time worker who wants my government to get off it’s ass and fix the housing and wage situation that’s killing us, I’m not asking for money.I make money, but because “my government” doesn’t care about reality, my wages and costs aren’t consistent and they don’t seem to see an issue cause they do nothing about it. Nobody is asking for free money, I’m asking for this country to focus on Canadians instead of focusing 100% of their time and money on foreign affairs
This is exactly what I was taking about in another comment. Ego. You can’t see that the things that we do in terms of foreign policy keep you safe in the long run. The world is confusing and scary and you want more than you have right now so it’s Canada’s fault and Trudeau’s fault and foreigners fault. It’s everyone’s fault but yours.
Canada is a beautiful, free, and open country and I love it. I’m sorry that you don’t.
That’s not what I asked. What country do you think you could move to that would give you money? Or, since we both know that’s nonsense, what country do you think gives it’s own citizens like you money?
But the US has guns, hate speech, and discrimination disguised as religious freedom.
