A few weeks ago there was a thread in my local sub which I wrote off as schizo rambling. Someone was claiming a chain of foster homes was providing kids in care with weed every day, in an effort to make them docile and easier to manage. Lots of scepticism and basically OP was told to contact both CFS and the CBC. The thread of course is long gone.

Weeks go by and CBC runs a front page article

Province cuts ties with Winnipeg foster home operator after teens given marijuana daily

In which all of OPs claims were vindicated. If you needed any more proof that enabling junkies and letting them wallow in addiction is immoral, this is probably it.

Staff were told by upper management it was better to have workers at the home provide cannabis than risk residents going elsewhere and doing harder drugs, such as methamphetamine and opioids.

"It's easier to just keep [them] placated and happy than to have to deal with the paperwork, police and hospitals," the former employee said.

She said an underage teen who had never smoked marijuana in her life started smoking it daily after she moved into a Spirit Rising House home.

The foster homes were run by some guy who believes in enabling junkies and was giving kids a gram of weed a day. That's over an ounce a month for a kid. Absolutely insane amounts of weed for teens. If you had any doubts this is proof harm reduction proponents lack a moral compass.

Of the 30 Canadian colleges and universities granted the most international study permits last year, all but one are public.

lol, apparently the "college mill" idea wasn't accurate, as the strip mall colleges don't make up close to as many international student numbers as public schools.

These are permits in 2023 alone. How do you even fit 30k indians in one school? I don't even think my uni has 30k students total.

From the comments on reddit:

Was just in Cape Breton twice this year after 5 years away. There is a huge change in the population. It felt like 50% of the service industry workers I was helped by were international students primarily from India. Most people I spoke with feel badly for the students who are being lied to by the University about job and housing possibilities in Cape Breton. There have never been lots of jobs in Cape Breton. Never, ever. They are angry with local politicians and the University for this big cash grab.

A flight I was on in Jan. arrived from Toronto at 2am and the University had a table set up with a person yelling for the students on the flight to come to him. He was near baggage pick-up and was guiding them on their next steps and what forms they needed etc. About a third of the flight appeared to be students (maybe 20-30 people-the flight was not full) from mainly India and some from African nations.

It all felt very urgent and like people were being pushed through an assembly line. Not the kindness you'll often feel in Cape Breton.

why do people pretend that the biggest issue is that indians were "sold a lie"? we all know you're just sick of seeing poos everywhere.

Cape Breton is basically India it's fricked

darn, looks like nowhere is safe from the brown menace. All the way in the east coast? Wouldn't be surprised if there were indian sightings in Alert at this point

A comedy group called Danger Cats (which I'm pretty sure is a FUBAR reference) made a shirt about that guy who killed hookers on his farm.

“This is so disgusting,” said Palexelsiya Lorelei Williams.

B.C. Solicitor General Mike Farnworth, a long-time Port Coquitlam MLA, is also outraged by the T-shirt. “There's nothing humorous about that,” Farnworth told Global News. “I'm more than appalled. I just think that it's absolutely one of the most disgusting things that I have ever heard.

Lots of injuns and yt women in a tizzy, shows cancelled, redditors undoubtedly malding

wanna start compiling news articles where they just admit to this shit lol !leafs

the whole thread is gold, a bunch of leaf teachers whining about how they're constantly told how racist they are but not connecting the dots that this is exactly what they vote for

J'étais à Montréal, dans le coin du centre-ville, et j'entre dans un petit restaurant de salades. (Je ne vais pas le nommer ici parce que c'est pas la place pour.) Il y a une seule employée dans le restaurant. Je lui demande, en français, quelques détails sur leur menu. Elle me répond seulement en anglais. Je continue à lui parler en français, mais elle ne semble que comprendre quelques mots que je lui dis et me répond en anglais.

Je ne blâme absolument pas l'employée, qui ne fait qu'essayer de faire sa job le mieux qu'elle le peut et gagner un peu d'argent. Bien à elle. Je blâme son employeur, qui a clairement du réaliser qu'elle ne parlait pas français et qui l'a engagé dans une position de service à la clientèle quand même.

Évidemment, c'est pas quelque chose de rare. Mais quand même, c'est mon droit d'être servi en français. Alors j'ai porté plainte. C'est super facile, y'a un petit formulaire simple en ligne ici: https://www.oqlf.gouv.qc.ca/francisation/respect/plaintes/

Je vous encourage tous de faire la même chose quand vous n'êtes pas servis en français. C'est votre droit aussi, et juste chialer sans rien faire ne mènera à rien - surtout quand y'a précisément un outil qui existe pour vous permettre de vous faire entendre par le gouvernement et être inclu dans les statistiques pertinentes.

Y'know how we keep hearing there's no heavy industry or manufacturing in Canada? Probably because every time EVERY TIME a project starts up ruralcels and injuns come out of the woodwork.

If you somehow manage to pay off the two thousand different first nations that suddenly popped into existence around your project, the ruralcel r-slurs will lobby the gov.

No matter that their entire lifestyle is subsidized by the provinvial capital and the feds, they manage to kibosh anything mildly profitable. nooooo my shitty dilapidated 1970s bungalow serviced by a dirt road will be RUINED

So a dude who was in and out of jail murders his entire family. I've posted about it before. The judge said he would probably reoffend. The system didnt do a thing so of course the answer?
