Over the past several decades, Canadian housing has been transformed into a financialized wild west where the interests of the investor class are sacrosanct and social need is secondary.
Secondary? That implies it has any priority what so ever in the market. It has been shown clearly there is no consideration of the social aspect of housing as an investment. It’s how much you can get for your property, that now carries no mortgage (OK, boomer), and how you can fund the lifestyle you’ve been practising for all these years. Remember, there are no poor people, just temporarily inconvenienced millionaires.
Greed is good. So are the well cooked rich, I’ve heard.
I do not understand the US judiciary nullifying a portion of the “sacred” constitution. Seems like the beginning of the end, to an outside observer. Thanks for all the fish!!
This marks the first time China has not claimed the number-one position.

Awesome, now, coupled with oil, nickel, softwood and lithium, the lawless y’all qaeda yahoos to the south will HAVE to bring FREEDUMB to the frozen North.
Just the sight of the grinning ghoul send shivers down my spine and rage into my veins. Where the hell are our elected officials and why is Weston not hanging upside down from a hook through his ankle? This monopolistic cash grab is insane.
This isn’t sketchy at all. It sounds an awful lot like price fixing… something Loblaws is intimately aware of having honed their skills for over two decades on staple foods we all need to live.
During the first nine months of this fiscal year, the RCMP spent $2.5 million on security for MPs. If spending continues at the same pace, the cost of MPs’ security for this fiscal year could hit $3.4 million — almost double what it cost a year earlier....
Just stopped in to say fuck you to the greedy motherfuckers who created a market for sharing massively overpriced content and now cry all over their piles of money cause they are BIGGER piles of money.
Half a story, told from the 1% perspective, is a trope with the CEEB these days. A manufactured crisis to elicit a singular response. Pity the poor land owner, being held hostage by the big bad tenant. Boo fucking hoo....
Pretty much the title: I see multiple posts on 3-day old accounts, all promoting disinfo for the RUS, ISR, CHI or some weirdo faction thereof. CanI set a filter on my account to ignore these prolific bastards until they have attained certain age or number of responses that exceed the AI 's smarmy word count?
I’m in the same boat: where to find properly layed out facts minus the cringey potshots that are guaranteed to make the uber-fragile righties shut down?
Three London, Ont. women were among 62 victims of femicide in Ontario over the past year, something a local abused women’s shelter said is further evidence that gender-based violence needs to be treated as the epidemic that it is....
If “Femicide” is now a thing where is the examination of female on male murder, assault, and coercion? Seems lopsided to announce an epidemic without any view of the totality. This is very reminiscent of the arguement that one in four unhoused people is female so ACTION MUST BE TAKEN to end the female housing crisis!!! And the other 3/4ths of unhoused? Well, they’re men and therefore disposable.
