How the Canadian govt swindled seniors out of their retirement pensions.
The Canadian dollar lost roughly 80% to 85% of its internal purchasing power over the last 50 years because of the relentless compounding of inflation. According to historical tracking from Statistics Canada, a basket of goods that cost $100 in the mid-1970s requires nearly $500 to purchase today. This means that a fixed, uninvested dollar saved in 1976 retains only about 15¢ to 20¢ of its original value in 2026.

Canada’s greatest weakness may be its arrogance, the belief that we remain a global example simply because we keep telling ourselves we are.

We boast about our healthcare, institutions, economy and moral leadership while ignoring the dysfunction, declining services and falling standard of living right in front of us.

Patriotism is not pretending everything is fine. It is caring enough about your country to confront reality, demand better and do the hard work required to rebuild it.

Canada’s reputation cannot survive indefinitely on nostalgia and self-congratulation.

A country that believes it is above criticism will soon find itself beneath the standards it once claimed to represent.

[Eva Chipiuk, BSc, LLB, LLM @echipiuk]

Why is it that Canada, and so many Canadians, act so entitled?

We pretend we have world-class healthcare, education, infrastructure, social programs and public services, while the reality around us tells a very different story. Our public institutions and services are crumbling and dysfunctional.

It is not just embarrassing; it is unsustainable. We cannot keep congratulating ourselves on how well Canada works while ignoring the reality around us: too many of our institutions and public services are failing us.

At the same time, we tax, regulate and resent the entrepreneurs, businesses, workers and industries that actually generate the wealth needed to sustain the very systems we constantly brag about.

Prosperity is not an entitlement. Government does not create wealth. It creates the conditions that either allow people to build, invest, innovate and create wealth, or make it increasingly difficult for them to do so.

A strong social safety net requires a strong, productive economy underneath it. You cannot weaken the foundation indefinitely and expect everything built on top of it to keep standing.

And we need to stop constantly looking outside our borders for someone to blame. Other countries. Other leaders. Other governments.

We have serious problems right under our noses, many of them created by decisions made right here at home.

You cannot continually undermine the people who create prosperity, demand more and more from the system, and then look elsewhere for someone to blame when that system begins to fail.

At some point, Canada needs to stop pointing fingers at everyone else and look in the mirror.

@fordnation Remember when you destroyed small businesses with the lockdowns?🤡

@jimiuorio Just look at how Canada failed on all those fronts

Over the last 40 years or so the government set out to make 3 things more affordable; health care, higher education and housing…how’d they do?

I wouldn't hate Canada so much if I didn't once love it.

We used to know we were America's quirky, harmless, mostly irrelevant cousin—our role to provide resources, natural beauty, confusing names for our coins, moose jokes, and pleasantries.

We had a good run with our surprisingly good (albeit odd) comedy history, our toques, our beer (eh), and our healthcare, but over the past decade, Canadians have become among the most propagandized—and thereby not just annoyingly sanctimonius, but dangerous—people in the world.

And not dangerous in a, like, "they'll shoot us dead" way, but in a "they'll drag us all into communism" way.

It is on account of Canadians' abiding trust of government, view of themselves as Most Good, and vulnerability to propaganda that it was so easy to stir them up into a tizzy over a fake threat in the form of President Trump, then elect the man installed by Justin Trudeau, Mark Carney, to stay the course.

That the mortifying “elbows up” crew—the same people who hid in their homes throughout Covid, terrified of a cold, reporting their neighbours for having grandma over for Christmas dinner—bought the Liberals’ story that Trump was coming for their “sovereignty” so swiftly should tell you all you need to know about their willingness to believe anything offered to them by the CBC and their Facebook algorithm.

Despite what Canadians believe, it’s not Trump who is responsible for this drawn out “war”—it’s their own government.

This "tough guy" charade is ridiculous. Canada can’t survive on its own, and is not operating from a power position. This is purely about the Liberal government's own political power and interests.

If Canada won’t work with America, it will have to find someone else take care of them. Who should that be? China?

Canadians’ jobs, businesses, and survival are at stake. Many are already struggling, and things seem as though they are about to get worse. Carney’s refusal to come to an agreement with Trump will only exacerbate the problems that already exist in Canada—both with regard to affordability as well as freedom.

Canadians need to put their egos aside and start operating in reality.

I very much doubt they will, which is why I keep complaining about it.
