Brampton sidewalks. You tell me why they don't have summer students out every day & night handing out tickets. Does the city not need the revenue?

When I worked at Sears in the early 90's, the people there built entire lives off those jobs. The guy running appliances had three kids, coached little league every weekend, and retired after 32 years with a pension. One of the women in customer service bought her first house working full-time there, and the older guy in hardware took the same vacation to the Ozarks every summer because he could actually afford to unplug for a week. The managers knew everybody by name, the Christmas bonuses actually meant something, and the store was packed every holiday season because business was booming. Nobody thought they were "stuck" working retail - it was honest work that paid enough to live with dignity. Somewhere along the way, corporations started making record profits while the people keeping the place running could barely afford rent. When exactly did a steady full-time job stop being enough to build a normal life?

Does an address have a bad history when 4 police officers approach a house?

REPORTER: “Some of the Indian extortionists are first-time offenders.” POILIEVRE: “I don't care.”

Khalistanis have badly misguided Canadians by painting their movement as a “freedom struggle.” Canada already paid the ultimate price: 329 Canadians murdered in the 1985 Air India bombing. We see the pattern of Khalistan-backed extremism and gang activity turning Canadian cities into zones of fear and violence. These radicals and their associates use intimidation, illegal firearms, and targeted attacks to control communities while hiding behind separatist ideology. We don't want endless foreign grievance politics importing 40-year-old feuds.
