Its not fair to dismiss the problems of the people who lead very difficult lives in this country because someone on the other side of the planet has it worse there.
Where is your perspective on that?
"Sorry, I know you have an unhappy and difficult life but you should just learn to be greatful because I saw people over yonder who have a different kind of difficult life."
You keep saying people need perspective, I think you do. You look at this country through rose coloured glasses.
No - you're a well off white guy who doesn't experience the bad parts of Canada.
Broadly - sure - Canada is awesome.
Sprinkle in some nuance and the pimples are obvious if you open your eyes.
There is always room for improvement.
You are ignoring the voices of those with legitimate concerns in this country because you live a comfortable life. Get a grip.
Yes Canada is wonderful. I love this country and wouldn't want to live anywhere else - that being said, you cannot ignore that there is are plenty of glaring issues with this country that are affected a shit ton of people.
Your experience is not the norm.
Look at the source: its a law firm who brings immigrants over to Canada. Of course they're going to pump our tires. It helps them with business.
Its all relative, and clearly you aren't having the hardships that a lot of our country is currently enduring.
We have it very good here.
In some aspects sure. Try being at the beginning of your adult life right now. Housing, the cost of food/goods, a lethargic/apathetic government. Those things should be enough evidence to say that we aren't the second best country in the world.
Hell, we didn’t even get to vote for our last two leaders
Please explain this false statement.
Edit: I am silly and thought that statement was about Canada. I feel shame.
This sounds like a bad idea. Just replace the post.
There would be a few fun chapters but for the most part I’ll admit it would be quite boring for most people. 50/100
It’s a sentiment that is echoed for every generation as they hit maturity since Gen X.
Thank you for posting this. This is right up my alley.
Our former PM (who currently runs the Evil Conservatives' World Guild) has been spending a lot of money to make this shit happen in every country.
