Commit to meaningful consultation, building respectful relationships, and obtaining the free, prior, and informed consent of Indigenous peoples before proceeding with economic development projects.
We’ve had 10 years of stagnant growth and our average wage is now lower than the poorest US state, yet they want to double down. I have to wonder what foreign interference goes on in Canada for us to deny ourselves our own wealth, as we ignore money laundering and everything else that makes housing unaffordable as food bank usage explodes.
Is it China attempting to deprive the US of resources, as China imports Russian oil themselves and opens coal plants to bolster their own economy?
Canada’s avg income is comparable to California, Minnesota, or Virginia.
Stop getting your talking points from US owned conservative media. All they do is lie, and it makes you a liar by proxy.
Canada /does/ have issues, but none of them are things conservatives are capable of fixing. They’ll only make it worse, just like we’re seeing down south.
Ah sorry, it was median wages I was meant. Obviously averages are misleading and should generally be avoided when it comes to talking about net worth and salaries.
A convenient excuse to not develop our resources, leading to massive losses in foreign investment into Canada. Why would anyone invest here when bureaucracy makes it impossible, why would they not invest in the US instead leaving them with higher wages and more economic growth as has been the case over the last 10 years?
We are last in the OECD for growth, as we import people into a housing and doctor shortage to hide it. This video has the graph at 2:40 if you want proof of that.
Well do you want functioning hospitals, a social safety net, things like that? Those take actual money, current account balance, exports. You also happen to think healthcare should be a human right I would assume?
I think Canadian oil is landlocked and the greater good should prioritize, so we can fund things like health transfers. Because I care about Canadians in aggregate, not a tiny selection of them who want to maximize rent seeking.
If it was a rich persons land who bought it off the indigenous would you be saying the same thing, would you respect land rights then if it meant denying a safety net for the poor?
I just have to say, I really appreciate you on this forum and thank you for standing up to ignorant people like them as regularly as you do. It is refreshing to see. :)

None of that is true. Even the quickest of Google searches confirms you’re not being accurate.
Canada’s avg income: C$55600 (around US$ 40k)
Mississippi avg income: C$41600 (US$ 30k)
Canada’s avg income is comparable to California, Minnesota, or Virginia.
