My old working class neighbourhood used to be relatively safe, now it isn't. A major demographic change occurred. It's not hard to see what happened.

This chronic inability by some on the left to acknowledge that mass immigration does at least some damage to the social fabric, is part of why the rightoids are winning. People on the ground can see it, and shouting to the contrary from ivory tower PMC liberals who consider themselves lefties is not going to change that.

In Canada we are undergoing a collapse of the healthcare system and a shortage of housing.

But if you say "maybe bringing more people into the country when we can't house or care for the people who are already here is a bad idea," suddenly you're a racist.

Immigration policy has real effects on the lives of current citizens, and it is not racist to acknowledge those effects.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
