From Toronto to Vancouver, some residents are losing faith in a government social safety net that is central to the country’s identity.

What a mystery this is.

so you don’t know bout his eugenics theories and his trips to Berlin in the late 30s? or why the RCMP and later CSIS watched him till he died, and the Douglas files that were supposed to be released 4 years ago were sealed for another 50 years? I’m not a troll, I’m fucking pissed and sad at the way this all has gone

Hey when you get back under the bridge can you check to see if my lure is down there?

It snapped off a while back and damn I just can’t find one like it.

Just remember every time you hear news stories about undesirable people being forcibly sterilized on reservations or institutions in Canadas recent history, Tommy Douglas’ writings on eugenics were directly responsible.

It’s kinda like… silver and purple sparkly? I guess? With black hooks.

You’ll know it when you see it.

That’s odd, it looks more like that forcibly castrated man due to low IQ that used to deliver pizza.

Ah shit. That’s the mirror! you’re going to have to keep trying bud, thanks!

No, that’s not the mirror, it was an elderly native man with mild retardation worked for the pizza shop, got a big payout a few years ago over this finally.

What I’m the actual fuck are you on about now?

I think you gotta see a therapist or something dude. That’s straight, like no more jokes, you gotta see somebody.

Forced sterilization of undesirables based on Douglas’ and other theories continued until the 80s. this isn;t conspiracy shit, it’s well documented and known among people don’t get their history lessons from “The Greatest Canadian”. I know some of the victims. This was not unclear.
