Two million Canadians visited food banks.
Liberals claim that they care about other people, but the real mark of liberal governments is how little they care about their own people.
Times are hard in Canada under the corrupt radical Trudeau government.
As Canadians grapple with astronomical grocery prices, troublingly high numbers of people are flocking to food banks to feed their families. Last March alone, two million Canadians visited food banks—a staggering 90 per cent increase from 2019—and the most recent figures estimate that 12,000 new users access them every month. Food banks aren’t just frequented by unhoused and precariously employed folks anymore, either: now, one in five users has a steady job.
Faced with the deluge of need, community food programs across the country have begun closing their doors due to empty shelves
That means it’s the right time to bring a whole bunch of freeloading ‘refugees’ from terrorist Gaza to Canada.
The Liberal government will provide tax-free grants of $3,000 per adult and $1,500 per child to Gazan refugees arriving in Canada, the Department of Immigration announced Thursday…
Thus far, 4,782 applications have been approved, and 616 Gazans have arrived, typically as relatives of Canadian residents.
“While it is extremely difficult for people to exit Gaza at this time, Canada is making sure necessary support is in place for Gazans as they start to arrive in our country,” the department said.
The government has not disclosed the total cost of the refugee program.
“Canada is the only country in the world with a dedicated pathway for extended family members of its citizens or permanent residents in Gaza,” the department stated in a May 27 briefing note.
That’s not something to be proud of.
Incoming Secretary of State Marco Rubio previously warned Canada that it was endangering its own people and Americans.
In a letter Wednesday to U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, United States Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) expressed concern over the program, which he warned could lead to an increased risk of allowing individuals with ties to terror groups easy access to the United States.
“On May 27, 2024, the Government of Canada announced its intent to increase the number of Gazans who will be allowed into their country under temporary special measures,” Rubio wrote in his letter, which was signed by five other Republican senators.
“We are deeply concerned and request heightened scrutiny by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security should any of them attempt to enter the United States at ports of entry as well as between ports of entry.”
What could go wrong?
“Settlement support and this financial assistance are critical to address the immediate challenges that come with moving to a new country under such circumstances,” said Immigration Minister Marc Miller.
“We’ll continue advocating for the safety of everyone.”
Everyone except Canadians.

Had I been Canadian, w/ this state of affairs, I’d very much want my country to be the 51st state of the US. Or some variation of it
Rarely says
Why on Earth would Canadians want to be a 51st state?
Tony says
Ay! They are already North Americans. Plus, they may want to be part of The United States of America. Specifically, they may want their freedoms to be under the protection of a US Constitution and a Bill of Rights.
Rarely says
No need.
Perhaps Costa Rica and Belize would accept such a kind offer. They’re North American countries too. Nicaragua? Cuba? They could really use some help.
Rarely says
BTW Tony, if the US Constitution and Bill of Rights were so attractive to other countries than the US those countries could enact similar (or identical) statutes without actually joining the US.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Rarely
They indeed could, except that such a proposition would not be attractive to those in power
gravenimage says
Sadly true, Infidel.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
For one, so that their government doesn’t prioritize Gaza refugees over its citizens
Hank says
+10
Hoi Polloi says
I initially thought it was all just ribbing JT but if the Trudeaus of Canada don’t feel any sense of responsibility to the US in regards to what they’re sending into the US, maybe it’s serious.
Rarely says
What exactly are they sending into the US?
Hoi Polloi says
The US is flooded with illegals from both the northern and southern borders now, as I’m sure Canadians know. Those I know are not happy with what has been happening in their country.
Rarely says
Tony,
in fact more illegal immigrants enter Canada from the US than the other way around. With Trump’s policy to extradite illegal immigrants with criminal records we can expect many to run to Canada.
It’s a problem that goes both ways and is certainly not a one way street.
Nevertheless, I am not happy with Canada’s immigration policy and it would be a good thing if pressure to change it is successful.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Rarely
Canada gets the bulk of its illegals from its ports of entry. Not from people crossing over from Dearborn to Toronto. You mean to tell us that all the Khalistani thugs that you have up there came to Canada via the US? The reason they went to Canada in the first place was that they couldn’t come to the US
Westman says
From observing London and now, Canada, it seems:
An immigration fool and his sense of home are soon parted.
somehistory says
Why should “gazans” feel the need to leave home? They are about to receive even more **help and hope** from the U.S., unless Mr. Trump can, and does, stop it.
They may end up standing in soup lines as Canada runs out of money to support them in the luxuries to which they have become accustomed After all they are not working for their food and other necessities in .gaza…Israel has been trucking in tons of food and other aid.
Tim gallagher says
I think it is an incredibly foolish move to let Gazans into a country given that 70 per cent of them support the scum of the earth vermin from Hamas. Giving them this money is even more foolish. Our left wing, hopeless government in Australia brought several thousand of the Gazans in as well but I don’t think they were moronically stupid enough to give them money and that is saying something because our Australian government is about as stupid as a government can be.
Hoi Polloi says
I hope they soon find reason to return to Gaza and leave beautiful Australia and its wonderful citizens alone. Hope you are well
Tim gallagher says
I am doing ok thanks hoi polloi. I am pretty sure that most of the Gazans will find a way to remain in Australia which is still a beautiful country with many extremely pleasant people, however the biggest issue right now is a series of anti Jewish attacks on synagogues, cars parked in suburbs where many Jews live in Sydney. Letting Muslims into the country, which started back in the 1970s has made the country far worse. These anti Jewish attacks almost every night lately never happened before. We are headed for a federal election in May or earlier and god help this country if this useless government gets back in. I hope you are going well.
Hank says
” Letting Muslims into the country, which started back in the 1970s has made the country far worse.”
Strangely, the sheeple keep voting for those people that facilitate it.
somehistory says
Because those who “facilitate it” lie about what they intend to do about it in order to get elected.
Hoi Polloi says
I’m well, thanks. I see from your comment that you have the same run of paymastered politicians as the rest of the western world.
Tim gallagher says
Thanks for the comments hank, somehistory and hoi polloi. It took quite a few years to look into islam and see it’s malevolent nature. But it annoys me that so few people still have not woken up. Yes Australia has the same dumb voters who voted in the same idiots into power. With these anti Jewish attacks, never seen before in Australia, I would say quite a lot of people will be woken up. It is becoming a far worse country.

Good exchange.
Rick Gordon says
Until Trudeau is out of the government – along with his ardent supporters – the incredible immigration of people with a high propensity to kill or destroy those with different beliefs or values – committing suicide for the Canadian people will continue. It is difficult to understand how Canadians have put up with it.
Joe Scott says
Typical backstabbing by Turdo…
jerry glenn says
Canada surges in the international Islamopandering derby.
Peter Dale says
Our dear leader said in 2015 that we were the first post-modern country: we had no core values. So why is anyone surprised if he continues to prove it and we continue to support his Liberal Party?
gravenimage says
Yes–this is what Trudeau said: “There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada”. Just appalling. Luckily, I think in most cases this is false.
Hoi Polloi says
Wow, Peter and Graven. This confirms for me my personal stance that I prefer people who are what they are – at least I know. Then there’s Trudeau, who has no core identity, and narcissist that he is, projects that onto all his countrymen.
Hank says
“That means it’s the right time to bring a whole bunch of freeloading ‘refugees’ from terrorist Gaza to Canada.”
Canada is out of control. To be the 51st state seems to be its only option now before it descends into Islamic darkness.
How in h*** can they keep voting for this traitor Trudeau and his political party? How on earth can the sheeple keep voting for Islamization??
Phil Copson says
See this video from the excellent Pat Condell on the subject of “Presidential candidate Donald Trump” and his views on screening migrants.
It dates from DJT’s FIRST Presidential campaign – and it only appears to become more true since…

While Canadian Food Banks Collapse, Canada Offers $3,000 to Gaza Refugees
…………………………………….
That is, to *each* invader from Gaza. How long before the first Jihad terror attacks against the Canadians who are giving them refuge–and money–start?
Meanwhile, actual Canadians can go hungry…
