This is just a little glimpse into the rampant fraud there is in Canada's immigration system. Abdulkader Ali, a refugee field worker with a local sponsorship organization, took in $ for fast tracking applications with IRCC. He submitted AT LEAST 31 falsified immigration applications. Nevermind that he got a slap on the wrist and that taxpayers are paying billions for fake refugees, but it's also outrageous that there is a full industry on brining refugees into Canada and taking advantage of our system.

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna and his family just purchased one of the most expensive houses in Virginia history. At $10 million, this McLean 7 bedroom mansion ranks in the top 10 of the 4 million homes in the state. The prior, small home was demolished to make room for this McMansion.

@marcjoffe @Eric_Blair_2000 The family home I grew up in was $100k in the 1980s in Northampton and before that we were in an apartment in Bensalem.

This H-1B worker has lived in the US for nearly 20 years and built a family here. His mom was dying in India. To visit her, he would need to wait months to book a consular appointment--with the soonest one available likely being scheduled one year out. He made the difficult choice of not visiting his dying mom because leaving without an appointment would mean separation from his children, job, and his other obligations. Much of the commentary around immigration focuses on how such bureaucratic burdens undermine immigrants’ ability to contribute and innovate. But we must remember that this red tape also prevents these people from being fully engaged with their own lives and meaningfully present in the lives of others. This matters too, and these seemingly non-economic problems will eventually translate into economic costs. If America is no longer a place where people feel empowered to be the best versions of themselves as they celebrate, struggle, and grieve, it ceases not just being the land of opportunity, but also the land of dignity and purpose. linkedin.com/posts/gautam-d…

🇨🇦🚨The math in Canada isn’t adding up. A refugee receives $5,149.11/mo TAX FREE. Meanwhile, the average Canadian worker takes home $4,100–$4,800/mo after taxes and that’s considered a "good" salary.🤔 Why is it more profitable to arrive than to work? 🙇🏻 #Canada #Economy #CostOfLiving

A refugee in Canada gets $5149.11 per month TAX FREE. The average Canadian brings home anywhere from $4100.00 - $4800.00 per month after taxes, and this is on the high side. LET THAT SINK IN.

@JillCo What are you even on about? Sanctimonious ideology comes with a cost. In a more dangerous and divided new world ohda, Canadians will make the sacrifice.

It's absolutely insane that the government of Canada is not sounding the alarm on the dire economical situation that the country is in. We are in a worse state of affairs than the 2008 collapse. There are no jobs, people are losing their jobs and their homes. The housing market is flooded with dwellings that can't sell. People can barely afford food; their savings are drained and credit card debt is piling up - yet the BOC is keeping the interest rate at 2.25%. So many people are broke and dependent on government subsidies! It's crushing what they've done. The media won't even call it a recession (it's basically a depression at this point) because everything has become political. This country is so cooked.

Canada’s Chief Justice Richard Wagner has installed a lifelike bronze bust of himself in our highest court. It should be called ‘Narcissus Canadiannus” - There is no precedent for something this vulgar in the history of the Court. It should be taken down. Richard fancies himself. - Richard also fancies his own opinion on things. He violated legal due process and the Courts reputation by publicly accusing the Convoy - who protested backwards federal Covid policies that were soon dropped of ‘anarchy’ and ‘hostage taking’. Now that the Convoys freedom of speech, assembly and due process rights have been asserted by lower courts the Supreme Court has to consider the appeal of the federal govt and weigh the rights of citizens against the decision of the federal government to impose the Emergencies Act to suspend those rights. Wagners lack of judicial discretion in the first instance makes his recusal from such an important rights-defining case important because it signals not just fairness in the content of the decision but in the way the decision gets reached by the highest Court. He has already shown his bias. Any decision against the convoy poisons the integrity of the Court if he remains present. But Richard - the man with the bust of himself in our Court - doesn’t imagine himself under the law he imposes on others. He hasn’t completed any graduate work in law or published any academic work in law, philosophy or jurisprudence so it’s hard to know how he justifies himself in these matters. Ironically, he has a reputation for warning others - including those far more qualified in formal jurisprudence than he is - not to critique Canadian judges like himself or their (increasingly bizarre and politicized) decisions. But, from the Magna Carta onwards, Richard should know that in law as in politics dissent is democracy. The dissent of the Convoy and the growing critique of Richards own bizarre behaviour and inability to articulate a judicial philosophy is exactly what’s needed to save Canada - and the Court’s reputation as a place where justice - not the ego of the Justices - is at stake. Richard should recuse himself. And remove that vulgar bust from the Supreme Court. #SCC #RuleOfLaw

Chief Justice Richard Wagner is refusing to recuse himself from the Emergencies Act case, despite previously calling the Freedom Convoy the “start of anarchy” and saying protesters “took citizens hostage.” He has clearly shown his bias. Now he says there’s “no reasonable apprehension of bias.” That’s a problem. You don’t publicly characterize one side in those terms, then turn around and sit in judgment over them. This isn’t about whether he believes he’s impartial, it’s whether a reasonable person would. Do you or I believe him to be unbiased with everything we currently know? From his comments I don't see him as unbiased on this matter. When the Chief Justice has already framed the conduct as “anarchy,” the answer isn’t complicated. It's a given. Even Mahmud Jamal stepped aside in another case to avoid becoming a distraction, not because he had to, but because public confidence matters. That’s the standard. This isn’t just about one case, it’s about whether the public believes the process is fair. Because once that’s gone, the ruling doesn’t matter. No one will believe his "findings." And we currently have a government that are happy to ignore 'bias' in their favour if it adds momentum to their current goals. #onpoli #cdnpoli
