We survived 2008 because we kept the banking regulations in tact. We did save proportionately more lives than the US did with respect to the US and Covid and yes we need to re-examine what immigration on a massive scale does to a country that is apologizing for the sins of its past continuously. We have made restitutions for some of those sins and we need to move on. The issue with Covid was the responsibility of public health and in the rights that individuals have not to comply. We also recognize that we are heavily influenced by the culture and politics of our southern neighbour and they have gone off the rails there. We don’t want Trump here. We don’t want anarchist here. We don’t want religious fanaticism here. I am an immigrant and love Canada. I have assimilated and I like our constitution and bill of rights. I am worried that we are becoming a two party political system here because that leads to extremism and black and white debate. We have hate here now clearly. Let’s hope we stay in the middle.

The guy at the beginning and the end that perpetually talks with his hands is very distracting.
