..deadbeats...
Define deadbeats please. I certainly hope you don't think of me that way. I'm in the fight of my life right now to not end up homeless. And the reasons this happened to me and my sister are far beyond our control.
Deadbeats: People who perennially depend upon taking their sustenance from others when they are fully capable of earning their own way.
You and a bunch of other Canadians are suffering from the direct and indirect effects of the policies of your government that are pushing more and more Canadians into poverty.
Needlessly, I might add.
There is no magic to what Trump did to get our economy back on track and the only reason your government won't do the same is because they hate capitalism and prosperity...unless it benefits them of course.
More outright falsehoods from inside the conservative bubble
America is the country with the poverty problem not Canada. Canadians enjoy a better quality of life and are happier than Americans

What Canadians get for their taxes
Canadians may not pay that much more than Americans — and, on occasion, as a nation, they have even paid less — but they do get a lot more from their government in terms of social services. That’s part of what makes Canada one of the Top 10 happiest countries on earth, ranking seven spots higher than America.
As Vice Money puts it, “American marginal tax brackets aren’t too different from Canadians’, yet [Canadians] get universal health care and [Americans] don’t.” Currently, Americans pay $3.4 trillion a year for medical care and, unfortunately, don’t : “The U.S. life expectancy of 78.8 years ranks 27th. It has the fourth highest infant mortality rate in the OECD, the sixth highest maternal mortality rate and the ninth highest likelihood of dying at a younger age from a host of ailments, including cardiovascular disease and cancer,” reports Bloomberg.
Per capita health-care spending in the U.S. is more than $9,000.
By contrast, per capita health-care spending in Canada is half that, or $4,500. Yet life expectancy in Canada is 81.7, and the country ranks 13th, significantly ahead of the U.S.
..,.Overall, though, Canadians enjoy the kind of perks Americans only get if they work for the most generous, prestigious corporations. Those include free health care without deductibles as well as up to 18 months of subsidized parental leave when they have children.
They also enjoy access to high-quality education for children across the income spectrum. Even top-notch colleges and universities are cheaper than comparable institutions in the U.S.
Vice cites a 2009 Canadian study by the Centre for Policy Alternatives that found that “the vast majority of Canada’s population” gets a great deal: “Middle-income Canadian families enjoy public services worth about $41,000 — or 63 percent of their income. Even households earning $80,000–$90,000 a year enjoy public services benefits equivalent to about half of their income.”
In short, the study concludes, “the majority of Canadian households enjoy a higher quality of life because of the public services their taxes fund.”
..,Perhaps that’s why so many Americans, as well as the president, feel that Americans pay more than anyone else in taxes: Because while many U.S. residents pay nearly as much, or in some cases more, than our neighbors to the north, Canadians in general can get so much more in exchange.

https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/artic ... o-canada-sAnother lie is that Trump 0got your economy on track. The US economy has been growing at roughly the same rate for 11 years after it tanked under the Bush administration and began to recover under Obamas first term.Note that when it was growing at this rate under Obama you called the growth rate abysmal. Suddenly the same numbers ate awesome to you just because Trump is POTUS now. Also some sectors like manufacturing are in slight recession that to Trumps trade wars
