Perhaps the business groups can find a way to hire the 100,000+ Canadians who have lost their jobs in the past few months before advocating to bring more people into the country.
Or perhaps they can be honest and just say that they are looking for cheap labour that they can more easily control.
Prime Minister Mark Carney is facing growing pressure from business groups to allow more immigration to address Canada’s labor needs, but the prospect of welcoming more migrants carries political risk for him bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Tom Hiddleston says happiness is overrated and spending your life chasing it can actually make you unhappy
"Happiness is overrated. Meaning is underrated. Happiness is like a sunrise or a sunset. Bear with me"
"You're there. It's lovely. You're present with it. The sun's rising or the sun is setting. It's perfect. After 15 minutes, the moment is over and it's gone. Trying to sustain it is impossible because it's over"
"And a life spent chasing the permanence of that feeling will make you unhappy because you can't hold on to it. The moment you try to hold on to it, it slips through your fingers and is lost"
"Meaning is a structure that only you create in your own life, an architecture with your own particular spiritual fingerprint, whereby if you're going through a hard time, if you're going through challenge, struggle, obstacles, suffering or pain, only you know why you're going through it"
"You might know, this is hard now. I'm doing it for my kids. I'm doing it for my mom. I'm doing it for my future"
"And then it makes enduring the hard times bearable because you know what it means"
"And meaning - this is the take - meaning yields joy. Joy is deeper than happiness"

Three years of warnings. Hundreds of complaints. Nearly a billion dollars in OSAP grants to private career colleges.
And Minister Nolan Quinn still can’t explain why his government failed to act sooner.
Yesterday, in Question Period, I demanded answers.
Students are paying the price for this government’s failures, and I’m not letting them off the hook. #onpoli

Dwyane Wade earned $196 million in the NBA. At home, Gabrielle Union pays half the bills. And she insisted on a prenup.
It started with one sentence. Wade says they were arguing in Miami and he called it "my house that I paid for." She told him he would never say that to her again. In L.A., she paid half of the new home. "You will never say my house again."
In May 2023, Union said it on a Bloomberg podcast: "in this household, we split everything 50/50." Wade says it covers about three things, like the house. Everything else, each pays their own. They married in 2014, and in her memoir she wrote that she "got taken to the cleaners" in her first marriage.
The case for 50/50: she earns her own money, she already paid for one divorce, and nobody gets to call the home "mine."
The case against: he made $196 million, a marriage is not a business deal, and splitting bills with someone who earns more keeps the gap.
In the video below, Wade explains how 50/50 works in their house.
If your partner earns far more than you, should you still split the bills 50/50?

El-Sayed: "How expensive is having kids? ... The party that wants to tell me that they're pronatalist, their solution is: let's cut taxes for the billionaires, and let's go to wars we have no business fighting... do not be surprised when people don't have kids."

The thing that Canadian CRE insiders have known basically forever is that housing in Canada is primarily a wage problem, an income problem, not a cost problem

Another bombshell on the billion dollar OSAP scandal.
Over 8,300 OSAP applications came from just THREE IP addresses. The Ford government was warned as early as 2023 and received over 220 tips, complaints and referrals since January 2024.
They had the warnings. They refused to act until Oct 2026. Now students are paying the price.
We need a full forensic audit.
