🇨🇦 The average household income, after tax, in Canada's largest province, in $69,000.
🇺🇸 The average household income, after tax, in the United States' poorest state, Alabama, is $69,000.
Canada's richest province is at the same economic level than America's poorest state.
Canada is a failed nation.
“We’re talking about a regime that raped women for simply showing their hair...Removing a terrorist is not tragedy. It’s a sign of justice...He ordered my killings 3x. He ordered the killings of innocent Iranians for 47 years...Do not dare to mourn for terrorists”

Mass celebrations continue to sweep the West as Iran's Islamic Republic falls.
The West is waking up to the devastation Islam has unleashed on humanity.
INCREDIBLE SCENES IN TIMES SQUARE: Hundreds of Iranians in tears, belting out their TRUE national anthem, chanting THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP for ending Khamenei’s terror reign!
The regime is FALLING — and the people are celebrating! Leftist noise? Completely overwhelmed.
#REPORT: CBC is under fire after using an image of two Iranian women crying in their story covering the assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei, who imposed some of the most restrictive laws on the rights of women in the world.
I just spoke to a client today who put a deposit on a house in the U.S.
Their main reason for leaving is their lack of trust and confidence in the Canadian government
Japan 🇯🇵 just sent a clear signal:
Canada 🇨🇦 won’t attract more investment from Japanese automakers by distancing itself from the U.S. in favor of Beijing.
Our auto sector thrives when North American trade is strong and predictable.
A stable free-trade framework with the U.S. supports Canadian workers and serves our national interest. 🇨🇦

A change is happening. The support for Donald Trump is massive

“Iranian here with a message for every single American who voted for President Trump from the bottom of my heart. Thank you. God bless, president Trump, God bless the US military and God bless America. We can't wait until Iran is free and we can welcome you back to our country with open arms and be the allies that we used to be before the Islamic regime took over our country in 1979. That's it. Thank you. Thank you so much, and God bless America.”
🇨🇦⛴️ Here’s the insanity:
Canada imports billions in oil from:
• 🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia
• 🇳🇬 Nigeria
• 🇩🇿 Algeria
• 🇳🇴 Norway
• 🇺🇸 USA
• 🇰🇿 Kazakhstan
Every single one arrives by TANKER to the East Coast.
So when exactly do we get a tanker ban there?
Or is the “ban” only for Canadian oil, Canadian workers, and Canadian paycheques? 🧐🙄🤨

Bankruptcy searches are surging.45,400 businesses closed in November, almost matching crisis-era levels.
22,000 GTA condos completing this year.
Up to 35% could default.Pre-con buyers losing $130K deposits.
Homes selling $250K below 2016 prices.
This is what happens when leverage meets reality.

This is for all the world to watch, learn, and appreciate about how tolerant and diverse India is. And how the Hindus have kept India this way in spite of extreme oppression and worst atrocities done on them for over a 1000 years to make India become another Iran or Afghanistan.
Today, India still remains a refuge for Iranian Parsi Zorastrians, Jews from the middle east who fled persecution, Christians and Sikhs from Syria to Afghanistan, Jains from Pakistan, Buddhists from China, Muslims from Myanmar, Tamil Hindus from Sri Lanka, even Islamic sects which are persecuted in other Islamic nations around India.
Canada's living standards are collapsing in a socialist doom loop.
The govt is trying to hide this by "growing" the economy with massive numbers of immigrants. However cramming millions of Bangladeshis into Toronto doesn't make for a more powerful first world city, it just turns the entire the city into the 3rd world also. Now they are all on welfare and the rent is higher for everyone.
Canada's GDP per capita was 94% of America's in 1981. Today it's 67%. The widest gap since World War II.
Ontario is now poorer than 43 US states. Including Louisiana and Alabama. This isn't a hiccup, it's a collapse.
From 2017-2024, US productivity grew 10.1%. Canada's fell 0.6%.
The US spends 3.4% of GDP on R&D.
Canada spends 1.7%.
Housing prices are 50% to 100% higher in Canada compared to the USA, meanwhile incomes are 30% lower.
Canadians spends 48% of their income on a mortgage. The average American: 34%.
Canada has talent, natural resources (oil, gas, minerals hydro), safe geography, rule of law. It should be one of the wealthiest countries on the planet.
What it doesn't have is a system that rewards being successful. It is a system being strangled by bad immigration policy, bad trade policies, massive regulations, woke DEI mind viruses and crushing taxes.
Canadians are asking a simple question: where is our money going?
Billions in taxpayer dollars leave the country with little transparency. Huge consulting fees, failed programs, new crown corporations with no results, and constant government travel, all while Canadians are taxed harder than ever. Affordability is worse, quality of life isn’t improving, and accountability is still missing.
It’s time to demand transparency and real accountability for every taxpayer dollar. Speak up. Share your perspective.
PACKED HOUSE: A Florida lawfirm put on a "Move to the USA Expo" in Vaughan, Ontario today. It was packed to the rafters with Canadians fed up with the state of Canada. They're looking to escape the absurdity to the U.S. That's how bad things have become in Canada.
President Trump has revealed the true purpose of his attack on Iran: regime change.
But that is not the likely outcome. And the way Trump went about it — without a broad coalition, without congressional authorization — undermines the US-led order.
My take:
