@sfperalta yeah, he's entertaining sometimes, but he has fallen for some of the distortions and lies that the right wing uses to elect horrendous candidates here.
Love you Canada! Sour grapes it sounds like from Maher... Must be tough with such a great neighbour when You think You are the best... Love from Scandinavia ❤️🤍❤️
Recently I saw a comedian on youtube call Canada America's hat, but America is Canada's jock strap... One of the cleverest I've heard is that for Canada it's like living above a crack house. Lunatic fringe as Tom Cochrane would say.
You should have pointed out that him saying Canada spend 13% gdp on healthcare as a lot is mischievous when you know that US spends 17% gdp on healthcare.
The only reason I didn't emigrate to Canada long ago is their immigration laws won't allow me because of my student loan debts. They're afraid I'd be a net negative to their economy. I get that.
Calvert is ignoring the obvious plight of many Canadians that are suffering. America is doing better in every metric. GDP, healthcare, income tax costs, housing,
I love it! Michigan gal, here. Sorry about the Detroit air quality drift. We're doing what we can about that...driving an electric car and almost done installing geothermal.
How do you like Toronto using our state as a trash dump? Their 'commodity' trucks come over the Blue Water bridge every morning. You can lose count real quickly. It's disgusting.
American "health care" should be renamed "health services and stock holder care." It's a big freaking joke. It's based on the idea of using people's most important and sometimes desperate situations to prey on them financially. I don't have any health care in America.
And that simply is not right, it is a right that every person should have some kind of available health care apparently the richest country in the world does not have health care of any kind that qualifies as health care for it's most desperate families. Families with children.
What a communist point of view of housing, shameful. The Healthcare in Canada is terrible, you can never get an appointment with a specialist, the timeframe for being to see a physician is easily north of 6 months. Canada has gone completely woke under its current government. Better to be honest about one’s problems rather than finding lame excuses
INACCURATE!!! Toronto General Hospital as well as five other hospitals in Toronto were voted in the top 50 in the world with Toronto General Hospital being number 3...behind two US hospitals. I have recently had a serious health issue and I saw a specialist within two weeks. I have had free Endoscopies, Colonscopies, Abdominal Ultrasound, Liver Biopsy, Massive Amounts of Bloodwork.......all at no cost to me. The machines that they used were all brand new. The staff some of the best in the world....many immigrants. Sick of all this B.S. about our healthcare system. Most of you get sick and don't even use it,,,,until it's too late.
Everyone in my family has had the healthcare when needed...yep i needed to wait six weeks for my low risk skin cancer treatment, and yet my mother in law received IMMEDIATE care for her lung cancer diagnosis, and my father for his heart attack, and while my friends hip was uncomfortable and managed with pain meds while he waited to get a new one, he did not need to mortgage his house to pay for it
Apparently Canada is great. Why is it then that Trudeau seems to be more hated than Trump or Biden? I also love how smug Canadians don't seem to understand how much worse for them it would be if they didn't share a border with the USA.
Yes, we do appreciate having the USA as our neighbor and we both have been good neighbors for a long time. We wouldn't want Russia or China as our southern neighbor and I'm sure the USA wouldn't want either of those 2 countries as it's northern neighbor. So it cuts both ways.
Except that's not a thing outside of paranoid right-wing fantasies. Just like it wasn't a thing when gays were accused of it in the 1980s. And just like it wasn't a thing when blacks were accused of it in the 1950s. Same right-wing fearmongering, different decade.
This video is triggering a cringe seizure in me. Smug condescending people like this are why Canadians hate the Liberal party and will vote them decisively out of power soon...
Bill had it right, point for point. I love the way leftists do “comedy”- completely devoid of any humour, just talking points said in a “comedic tone”. If you love communism so much there are a few countries I could recommend. Capitalism is freedom and has, unlike, communism, lifted millions and millions out of poverty. You’re smug and foolish- quite the winning combination
There are moments ...like this one...where I think Bill is just a bitter....lonely....single guy who always says how happy he is and drowns himself in cannabis. His sarcasm tells it all. I like him most of the time...but this arrogant sarcasm really gets to me at times. He thinks he knows it all. He is too stoned to do this much research. Get Real Bill.
You know, there’s capitalism in America to, they never shut up about it. Be nice to have a $200K + knocked off they price of a house. And yes 1.2 million and 900,000 students in a year will absolutely affect the rent a single mom pays and your granny will have to compete with a family with 5 kids to get that prized dr.
Housing costs are high because people are paying high costs for a house. It is capitalism, but more specifically, supply and demand. Opening the flood gates to immigrants, which we do need for the labor market, is undoubtably adding demand. Also, we don't have a health care system. The walk in clinics have burnt out doctors who never get a diagnosis correct. In northern B.C. we are sending people home from the hospitals to die because we don't have the beds, doctors, or equipment to treat them....I don't want people to loose a house to get access to helathcare, but lets not pretend we don't have people loosing access to helathcare to preserve our existing system. We. Need . Reform
There are more houses sitting empty in the U.S. than homeless people, immigrant or local. Inflation isn't happening if people's wages aren't increasing with the cost of living, it's just price gouging. And people pay for a house because they have to if they don't want to be homeless, but thanks for trying to blame buyers for high house prices because they tried to find a place to live.
😂🤣😂🤣😂 I know a shit ton of canadians that have moved to, worked in, and served in the armed forces(along my side) here in the USA. I wonder why!? I have family there and spent time there (unfortunately). My thing is I don't get why you all love being forced to participate in everyone else's life or vice versa and letting the government tell you they're the ones taking care of you. Do you really love being treated like children that government knows better than you, that you are unable to think for yourselfs, that you are unable to take care yourselves ?
Funny coming from a military member where all you do is being told what to do when to do it and how to do it. I guess enjoying free healthcare, a nice 30 day vacation, tuition assistance for school, basic allowance for food, and money for rent with a nice no down payment perk to buy a house is not at all a social program and you're absolutely thinking for yourself 😂!
No he won't. He'll gut healthcare, education and anything else so he can give tax cuts to corporations & the rich. Conservatives do that EVERY SINGLE TIME they're in power. PP has always voted against anything that makes Canadians lives easier and yet he's Canada's major welfare queen, living off of taxpayers his entire adult life.
@@imisstoronto3121no Pierre Poilievre won’t save Canada. Trudumb is like Gavin Newsom, Truedumb has economically destroyed Canada so badly that a divine being could save us from the pain he has created.
I'm with you but for your denying a link between population growth and housing prices. And no, it's not the "foreigners fault", it's simply true that supply/demand realities are relevant in the housing sector, as they are in other sectors. Not that demand growth is the only problem here, supply issues have certainly contributed as well. But it's clear that our federal government failed to anticipate and prepare for the varied affects of such a population explosion. It may have also underestimated the total growth of resident population from all sources (including international students, asylum seekers). I've bristled every time federal government ministers have tried down deflect criticism over their policy failures with the incendiary line "don't blame 'the foreigners'". Exactly who is blaming "the foreigners"? The foreigners don't set our immigration targets or population policies (to the extent we have any). And it bears emphasis that our predicament comes down to total numbers of people, not their origins. If our population surge came from high domestic fertility rates rather than immigration we'd still face major challenges. (Ask any boomer about the downsides of rapid population growth.) So again, "foreigners" are not to blame in this instance, but our policymakers sure are. Canada can and should continue to welcome significant numbers of immigrants for all kinds of reasons...and with fertility rates hovering around 1.5 children/woman we can do so, to a point, without suffering major growth pains. But it's time to get real and do our homework re the diverse economic, social and (especially) environmental effects of surging population growth - because the total numbers matter, they always have and always will.
The percentage of peopoe that dont have a family doctor in Canada is greater than the percent of people that dont have a health insurance in the US. So people who dont have a doctor literally have to pay for people that do. Of course the people that do defend the system the most. Canadians are pissed off at the current system to say the least.
Is Canada actually spending 13% of their budget on Health Care? If your comments were true then the Us would be spending 26% of our total GDP on healt care. We are not.
Is Canada actually paying for healthcare for illegal immigrants in Canada? If they were their health care system would be going broke at a fast pace. I tend to doubt it. Hopefully they're not stupid about that like the USA.
I notice recently brown speckles on Bill Nose when he speaks about touching topics . Things have change since when he was a free spirit, now he kneel down to the big bosses in order to staying alive, too bad ! he use to be great!
Jesus , this sarcastic delivery was a really bad choice. Was he was going for comedy. If he stood there and used a factual tone he would have achieved more. I can’t even finish watching it. I appreciate the counterpoint, but not if I have to consume it like this.
This year, Canadians could expect to wait 6.6 weeks for a CT scan, 12.9 for an MRI scan, and 5.3 weeks for an ultrasound. Dec 7, 2023 Waiting Your Turn: Wait Times for Health Care in Canada, 2023 Report  Fraser Institute Before the COVID-19 pandemic, patients in Canada waited an average of 50 to 82 days (7.1 to 11.7 weeks) for a CT scan, and up to 89 days (12.7 weeks) for an MRI scan. In the US we schedule those for a few days later. Where is this guy getting his information?
Depends on priority, you will get either a CT Scan/MRI/Ultrasound or any other procedure right away if it is deemed by doctor needed right away (emergency) Yes, one can wait long at times, but not the case for life threatening situations, where your health is serious jeopardy for having to wait Is our "free" HealthCare system the Utopia, no it is not and improvements needed, but at least in emergencies we do not have to worry about a Medical Bill
Maybe depends on the Province you're living in I guess, here in B.C. I'm on disibility and need to get EKG scans, CT Scans, Ultrasounds, and x-rays constantly.....they are scheduled and performed within the same week every single time here in Victoria, I've never waitied more then 4-5 days at maximum for any kind of medical need (with the exception of life threatening medical needs which are done same day), lab requistion or referral to a specialist. I have a family doctor though which is definitely a huge advantage then having to schedule appointments etc. with a random doctor you'll see at a walk-in clinic or hospital emergency. So don't know where you're getting that information from that it takes a month and a half to two and a half months wait time for these scans....?
@@ThePrairielad It must be so strange to walk in to a doctors office in the USA for a Canadian......they must have like a cash register and credit card readers etc at the front counters, and probably like lists of prices and stuff on the wall.....as you walk in bleeding everywhere the staff asks you how you would like to pay, and you reply "I have been shot twice and I don't have any money, I'm bleeding everywhere...help me please!".....and they reply "unfortunately we can't help poor people without money, you'll have to go to the emergency room at the hospital thats in you're network.....would you like me to call an ambulance that will cost you $150 dollars to take you there? By the way we'll have to bill you for the cleaning of the office because of all this blood you're getting everywhere in here........Sir? "meanwhile you have blead out and died already" :D
You can blame the premier of the province for that since they decide where the funding goes or they take the money from the feds but don't spend it. I have American friends and they have to wait for services too AND pay for it, whereas we don't.
You're using the Fraser Institute as an information source? What's next? Using the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights as a source for information on the perils of firearm possession?
