what's happening right now in canada is that the liberals have swung so far to the right that the conservatives are campaigning to their left, and it might work, but you can't believe them. the tfw program in canada is becoming something like nafta in the united states. both parties campaign against it when they're out of power, but neither cancels it when they get in.

the conservative are the ones initially responsible for expanding the program, and justin trudeau campaigned against it, and then expanded it further. i would expect the conservatives to be no different than the liberals.

the program is popular amongst businesses because it allows them to minimize costs on wages. it's unpopular amongst everybody else because it legitimately takes jobs away from young people. the fast food restaurants in canada don't hire teenagers anymore, they import workers from guatemala. it's absurd.

the united nations has likened the tfw to modern slavery, which is essentially correct.

the canadian political system is about to break, and it could be heading into a danger zone. the ndp is dying. who do people vote for to oppose the two-headed monster? this is the kind of scenario that generates parties on the extremes of the spectrum.
