Donald Trump should inform the mexicans that Canada is much more lucrative for them

[kennethgriffin]

Canada's minimum wage = $11.00/hour

United States minimum wage = $7.25/hour


1 canadian dollar is worth .77 cents

the US dollar being worth more doesn't matter since the wages are below market value

bare minimum just to make the exchange fair they should be making $8.47/hour


but to make the discounts actually worth living in the states they should ALSO be making $11.00/hour




then factor in benefits and handouts that are common place up here.


its amazing immigrants dont just skip you and head farther north

[Akrazotile]

Tbh, the US should look into one of those bullet trains that would get them there with great convenience.

But of course, big business wants cheap labor at the expense of the middle class, and by playing the hearstrings of liberals looking to play hero for the little guy, they easily get the govt to basically roll out the carpet for immigrants.

There are no 'handouts' in Canada you dumbass. Everyone contributes their share via taxes and everyone benefits. Yes the taxes are high, but at least their standards of living and satisfaction of life are MUCH higher than America's. Let that sink in for a little bit.

There's no monthly GST rebate cheques. That happens ONCE a year and you can't claim anything and everything. Only HST can be deducted and only if youre a business owner. For personal returns it only applies depending on variables. Ie; if you renovate your home, that can be deducted.

Secondly, as much as you'd like to think otherwise, sales tax is a drop in the bucket from what all the tax Canadians pay that comes out of their paychecks. If you're earning anywhere from 40-50k/year, the government is going to take roughly 15k of that... ballpark amount, don't quote me on that, I dont remember the specifics, but its almost 100% for sure over $10,000 in that salary range.

Kenneth, for once I agree with you - they should all skip USA and go to Canada. Unfortunately for us, Canada does not let illegals flood across its borders. They let immigrants in based on:

Economic. This category represents the largest portion of immigrants each year. Selection is based on a point system that rewards applicants with higher levels of education, job experience, and language skills (i.e., English and French). With the manufacturing sector in decline and the country shifting toward a more information-based economy, this policy emphasizes flexible, transferable skills over specific occupations.

US lets in unskilled, low-income, uneducated people who don't speak English and become a burden to our social and educational systems. Canada lets the educated, high-skilled, RICH people who invest and improve their country - smart, don't you think?
