What about the $8 million that We Charity owes the taxpayers back?
@Johnyblaze62 you seemed to have missed my first sentence saying that was not okay.
8million is pennies. Try billions in foreign aid if you want to complain
@Johnyblaze62 The school closed down…he kept the money.
@Johnyblaze62 nice spacing on your comment..I found it very easy to read.
Cerb lovers are glorified welfare bums.
Even more money when the country is $1 Trillion in debt and this clown government doesn’t know how to manage money
When will this insanity end 😫
Buy bitcoin
They are buying Canadians with Canadians money! What a deal!
None of this tyranny over this scamdemic would fly without them giving these cheques out. Nothing is free remember that. Our freedom and rights is what we are dealing.
it’s better in the hands of taxpayers than with the govt
Batman Hey Batman I’m kind of confused can you explain to me what is the CERB extension means will it go for until two at the end of October will you stop at the end of September because they said it will be extended so does that mean it’s from September 27 to all the way to October 27 or is it before October 27 is the extension for until October or just before September thanks can you explain to me like that please love you
AlekWheeler He wheeler is the CERB all the way to October now will go over to the end of October I’m confused because they said it could be ending in September but how is it extended if it’s ending in shipshape September so we’ll go from all the way to October or the end of October how long is extension and from what date to what date thanks babe💕💨
With my money.
Are Veterans still asking for too much JT? 🤦♂️what a joke this government is.
Veterans are still waiting for disability benefits!
Veterans arnt a big enough voting block to be bought
dickenstom maybe they should all move to Quebec so they can be heard.
My parents in their 80s and are struggling.Where is the extra money for them 🤔
Why do they need extra money… I’m struggling I don’t want any extra money.
@**** LOL like that will ever happen.
@jhn924 when I was a child and a teenager there was no ohip it didn’t always exist.
@warren gress
If daddy’s income is cerb lmao
@Bob Boyer maybe they should have thought about that before letting the government create pensions.
Great, more spend so the poor working stiff can carry more government initiated debt….
It’s not the poor, it’s anyone who isn’t poor. The bottom 50% of earners pay 9% of all the income tax paid but use more than half the “free” services and benefits.
Anything for a free vote.
Curtis John Think he meant poor as in he ‘s sympathetic for the middle class Canadians that have to carry this burden
@Wyatt Barnes That makes more sense.
Just open everything up again so we can work and stop running up more debt
they want the country in debt so the private financiers can make money off of the interest. We are entering the New World Order.
It makes no sense. It’s like an attack on small business. I lost my job because of covid and now I’m forced on CERB because I’m my industry it’s all limited hours/part time work
so when did we approve this universal income… when do I get to vote on this?
by voting for Trudeau… that’s how.
Did you have a say in the first place?
THE PENSIONS ARE GONE
Finally. 😀.
It should be universal and everyone over 18 should get a small ammount for food and so they dont freeze to death. Nobody ever asked for this CERB format and the goverment is just doing whatever they want at this point making decisions for everyone on the fly.
Today IS an important day. I had a bowel movement first time in a week
Holy crap! Congratulations, Jan! I bet you felt relieved. I’m proud of you.
Amazing job we all support you!!!
Hoky Crap 😰, Me too. The Me too “Movement ” grateful to be in Canada.
@cbonklisse pure gold comment
@cbonklisse Justin Turdeau.
Why don’t we have a choice to go back to work or keep printing money? I bet Canadians would rather risk getting the flu than destroy the entire economy
Who says you don’t have a choice to work?!?
You do have a choice.
Plenty of minimum wage jobs in stores that serve the public are open and waiting for you to apply to them.
@Random Comment Well said…without your health you have nothing.
Agreed. They are consolidating the world’s money. Next step one world government.
@Random Comment let idiots like you stay home , let everyone else live their lives 😃
wow money printer go brrrrrrrrrrrrr smh
Patient:
Doctor, when will the coronavirus epidemic end?
-Doctor:
I don’t know, I’m not interested in politics 😉
Hahahahaha… nice
Exactly
When the election is over, the virus will end LOL, not true, but will go to what it shoukd of been the whole time
Welcome to welfare state of canada😡
Go back to India then.
Get everyone on cerb yank the rug tell them if they want their benefit and work gotta take the shot :/ it’s coming!!! This all a setup
It’s pretty plain and simple if you look at all the recent stuff they’re doing.
Kyle Bissonnette it’s clear when you have eyes to see and ears to hear be ready time is short
we need all GOV ministers on Welfare or low wage..contracts
I wonder if there’s anyone left who can do math
Legend has it Journalists are the best at math..
The German finance minister knew math. That is why he killed himself.
Just because something sounds logical, does not make it right!!!
For millions of Canadian workers it will make much more sens to stay at home and collect all that money than go to work. They are trying to buy Canadians not just with the present taxpayers money, but with the money that now yet unborn Canadians will have to pay.
They took away the jobs. Then they come in as saviours.
$500 a week isn’t a lifeboat, its a pool noodle.
@Robert Dobie I’m sorry to hear. That’s a very hard spot to be it. Can your wife apply for anything? I’ve read briefly of child care subsidies.
Yep. My work went under and I was on CERB and it really helped for the time being. I tried to get back into the workplace and everything is part time/limited hours now, at least in my career anyways.
Canadians will be paying for this for many years.
No they won’t. Read-up on MMT(MODERN MONETARY THEORY)
Just wait until tax time. Gonna be a lot of fuckery going on.
Many decades is more like it
NEW WORLD ORDER
YES! This is bad!
