Well, some will accept teachers putting dresses and make up on their little boys in school and some won’t. Don’t doubt it will happen.

The regulations and the application process is the exact same for EVERYONE, from any country on earth. In 2022 Canada is looking for University graduates, with at least 5 years of direct working experience in their specific area of training. OR skilled and State certified trades workers, again with 5 years of direct working experience. Applying to come to Canada is a competition, not a lottery. We want the best people, that is why we have a points scoring system where the higher your score, the more likely it is that you will be offered a chance to come here. Applicants must.....pass a medical examination that they pay for ion their home country. Provide a Police record from their home country with no criminal convictions. Provide documented proof of their educational standings, and provide documentation of their past employment for at least ten years. Be able to provide proof that they have at least $15,000 Canadian dollars in the bank to cover their first 6 months of living in Canada ( that is for a single person ) or $30,000 for a family of 3.

As I said the process is not easy, and it takes time. Many apply , only about one in eight is accepted. The overall theme is this....What positive things does this person/family bring to Canada, that will improve our country in the future ? We are looking for young educated professionals, who will help us to build a better future for our country. Who will raise their children to be good citizens, and useful contributors to Canada.
There's always the 'other' way of going into Canada!

If it goes down that path everybody left and right is either getting nuked or shot and its all over. Mutually assured destruction
Canada has many providences and I'm sure out west is still largely conservative in their own nature? By west I mean like Winnipeg and points west and east of Vancouver.

In the Canada scenario where would good and bad places be in terms of politics and geography and in favor of small towns that say NO,etc? I have lived in small towns my whole life so it's no big deal but it would be weird to live in a city!
There are nice areas of Mexico that I would consider. The best place to emigrate might be Chile, safer country with a longer average lifespan than the USA.

Canada was going fascist full speed under Castreau util the Freedom Trucker movement put a halt to it and has forced a back down. Australia, New Zealand, many European countries, have not seen current authoritarian rule since the days of nazi Germany.

I'd move to Canada, legally. I'd rather live in the snow than among the drug cartels in Mexico. At least most of them speak English to.

All you have to do is look at Biden's poll numbers and how many Democrats are going to lose seats in the Nov 22 election to know that the left has worn out their welcome, and it didn't take very long.
I agree with the above post but don't believe the polls one bit. Too many ****iots (****ty idiots) still think Biden is not only popular but block you if you call out on it. Forums ban your account for 'trolling' if you point anything out. Discussion is NOT allowed because of how good he is!

I could go to North Portland Oregon the area north of the Union Train Station and do my own poll asking what people think of gay marriage and most will either agree that those who aren't gay need to be removed from society and I could then put it on an Alt News site and spin it to say 'Portland HATES NON GAYS DON'T MOVE THERE!!!' where if I go to east Portland or Sunshine Valley Oregon (or whatever that town is called) more then half either don't want gay marriage nor want it to be shoved down our throats but will allow them to do it privately but don't want our kids indoctrinated with that crap in schools to not be confused anymore.

The poll junkies would all freak out and think Portland is a hate crime city because of that one bad area where the police are defunded. The article doesn't tell you those officers now patrol eastern Portland and they have more coverage as a result of being allowed to do their jobs there!

Legal rec marijuana may be voted upon in November. Other states have done similar things this century.
Driver's here are always out of it since then and it's very scary to drive at certain times of the day. If you go in the mid morning hours they are usually passed out and the roads are pretty safe. These drugs are a slow killer so most don't notice what it's doing to them. There is NO such thing as a victimless drug. I cannot emphasize it enough it's only a matter of time. It's sad so many think they NEED the drugs which is exactly how the drugs first hook on you. Hell just normal coffee is a lot stronger then it was 20 years ago so you need 'more' to stay awake.

Hell weed and crack are a lot stronger then they were in the 1960s meaning you need more of it to feel the same 'high' then you would in 1970. New (well now old) research shows that drugs have doubled not only in strength but in aggressiveness and it's much much harder to withdraw from. You essentially need the lord's help and many do turn that route and have succeed (more or less) but only when they reach rock bottom and are actually serious about changing.

You'll understand when your rock bottom time comes and you have to go thru the 4 stages of truth essentially and be 'redeemed' internally. This is a personal journey you go thru but a major step. Your heart cannot lie and the results always show.

Is the Freedom Trucker thing still going or did they disband? Nothing on the news about it so I'm guessing it's one of those 'scares' that went nowhere then a few hundred trucks honking n tooting then leaving after being told to.
