Specially from Centennial college, con artists galore!
This city is awful.
BTW, who keeps inflating the average monthly salary? Lately, it's been 2k from CERB, or 0 if you didn't qualify.
You think you're entitled to just be handed a good job? Go create opportunities for yourselves, don't whine that women are outcompeting you. How freaking pathetic.
See, another reason we don't need anymore immigration at this point. We already have enough total losers, we don't need to be importing more.
Girlfriend suddenly wants to move in and get on my benefits from work.
A close friend of mine at work hears me talking about this and she tells me about the Ontario spousal laws and warns me that I'm being setup for financial rape.
I end the relationship a day later.
In her angry breakup email she states how she is going to come after me for my pension.
LOL
Guys.. you just can't ever get married or live with them anymore, that time over until the system is fixed. Toronto is a city for the 1%ers who live in Bridle Path and Lawrence Park. Toronto females hate men with a vengeance, and the police treat men like slaves.
Or.. we all seriously need to go line up and get government ID stating we are all women.
but does anyone else notice the issue the downtown has with a perpetual smell of garbage and sewage?
Every time I visit Toronto (admittedly usually just commuting in from the burbs for a Jays game) the stench is just brutal. Ive been to pretty much every big city in North America, and none of them have a problem with this on par with Toronto. New York was pristine and hygenic last year.
Its probably driven by that sewer line theyve been working on for what feels like a decade in front of Union station, but the amount of trash on the street is pretty extreme in some places too
Believe it or not, we don't need people like you and if you are never allowed into the country again this will be met with only a collective sigh of relief.
That's double what FT pays NET
If you understood anything about how the economy works you wouldn't make a ludicrous comment like that. Do you have any idea how much money is injected into the economy by foreigners? Canada can't survive without foreign investment and this pandemic has caused immense financial loss to the national economy already. Educate yourself. If Canada closes the doors to foreigners then Canada looses out as people will invest their wealth in another country.
Recent events during the pandemic would seem to suggest that the answer is yes.
Being stuck in a debt spiral and working until death for food, sheltar, and transportation is the norm.

Imagine trying to publish this article about any other race!!!
demand and more production and more jobs.. demand creates economy.. its not the reason for joblessness could be racial issues
many goes to other countries with their believes and systems which i oppose.. there should be a test for cultural, religious and social intelligence of people who is coming to any country. those who coming thinking to make it their "rules" can make hole in your
boat..no doubt. and i have seen blatant racism in middle east. in south asia china. but Canada is much better unless you
behave so awkwardly or dress or may the person is a loser so you cant help!! he or she may be finding an scapegoat in you.

A landlord is not running a charitable organization. I have bought several mid rise buildings in the Parkdale area and I want my rent paid by April 1st!
Please Jesus let the Coronavirus affect the Boomers who are gouging the rent and house prices for their greedy lifestyles such as buying vacation properties in formerly Native Indian reserves in South America.
How are the younger generations going to get ahead when the Polish nationalist Boomer in Canada wants mass immigration to increase his rent and house prices, yet the Polish nationalist doesn't like immigrants. Make up your mind Boomer! When are you going to expire?

All you get in Toronto are unhappy immigrants who were told a lie but are afraid to stand up against those who lied to them. Instead they vent their anger towards the Canadian-born who doesn't know what is being told inside immigration offices in Bombay or Lahore.

Are you efing kidding? If you cant make 450usd per month for apartment in 1st world and you need to live with your whole village in order to sustain yourself, you shouldnt come in the first place
Aren't you also guests because your ancestors came here by force a few hundred years ago?
Why did your ancestors land in Canada, spread smallpox and nasty white people diseases and almost exterminated the entire Indigenous population?
To add insult to injury, the remaining survivors were forced into residential schools and taught to "take the Indian out from them" under appalling conditions.
Now the current system in Canada wants to scam immigrants to come here and live like slaves.
Toronto is way over valued for what it is. As someone who grew up here I can tell everyone this is no New York City or Chicago or Tokyo. It is not a world class city. There are City's with comparable amenities to Toronto in the us or in other country’s for a lot less then 2400$ for a one bedroom apartment. Also if you look at world city’s like London, Chicago, New York peoples make a lot more the. 40000 after tax, the average wage has only gone up 4000$ since 1994 it’s a joke.
Doesn't matter if you come from Russia, South Africa, Europe, China, or Pakistan.
The issue here is that Canada invites everybody here but isn't transparent about the fact that most of your credentials will count for nothing.
There is a real problem with this but you guys immediately jump to racism as the answer to everything.
I guess it's an effective way of getting what you want?
It is racism because Canadian employers would rather hire a dumb white blonde with a high school diploma than an educated foreigner for a job. Why do Canadians expat in oppressive Middle Eastern countries and earn high wages while the locals and foreigners from Asia are treated like slaves?
No dude it's because foreign credentials are not recognized in Canada.

Canada has just 2.6 physicians per 1,000 people, which is among the lowest across OECD countries. Canada ranks slightly better in terms of nurses (9.7 per 1,000 people), though it is still below the OECD average of 9.8. In terms of acute care beds, however, Canada ranks last, at 1.8 beds per 1,000, compared to an average of 3.3.

You are gonna spend over $50,000 in Canada that you brought from India to be accosted by the racist "Yamma Yamma" man who thinks that you are a Muslim refugee? Are you that foolish? The man does this a lot and someone in the area suspected that he tried to assault a Muslim woman in the Don Mills area. The Muslim woman should have hired a hitman and got rid of that racist mad man.
The immigration lawyers, the Canadian government and the embassies lie to foreigners
You seem to completely miss the point. Qualified immigrants are granted visa based on the same skills that are inadequate for employment due to lack of Canadian experience. Then why grant them a visa in the first place for no other reason than to scam them of their savings? Besides these days only 3rd world immigrants are dying to get to Canada. A Phd earned in India is as good as dirt outside India and I'm sure these pajeets and patels know they have no alternative. So they pack their bags and run off to Canada to work dead end jobs which results in competition and stagnant wages for the rest of the country.
Why would someone living in a developed country want to move to Canada to hibernate 8 months out of the year, keep up with skyrocketing expenses and taxes. On top of that Canada is not economically dynamic or diverse.
Everyone starts from the bottom here. You don't start from the top. As a Canadian, I don't care if you were a Phd in your home country. You join the line like everyone else, even if it means having to clean toilets or shovel snow to pay the rent.
Toronto is a world class city and you should be happy that you found a job here, even if it means cleaning public toilets.
Immigration to Canada is based on a point system, obtained with your education, qualifications and job experience. Points are good enough for immigration, but in Canada, they are not good enough to get a job in your field. Amazing, how the credentials that qualify you to come to Canada are the same credentials that don't qualify you for your profession in Canada. The reason is, Canada only wants immigrants to do the labor jobs - pizza delivery, driving taxis, factory work etc.
7. Out Of Control Cost Of Living.
From rent, to utility bills, to shopping, to phone, internet and cable bills, to gas, to car insurance, to eating out, to basically anything you have to pay for or buy, the cost of living in Canada has become astronomical. Recent immigrants are astonished as to how expensive everything is. It is estimated that compared to most countries around the world, the cost of living in Canada is on average five times greater.
6. Health Care Crisis.
Practicing physicians in Canada are in a shortage, 1 in 4 Canadians cannot get a family doctor. Canadian doctors are leaving to move permanently to the United States. Statistics Canada and the Canadian Medical Association both have identified that for every 1 American doctor that moves to Canada, 19 (nineteen) Canadian doctors move to the United States! Doctors in Canada are overworked and underpaid, and there is a cap on their salaries.
5. Very High Taxes.
Yes, you have the GST, the PST, totaling 15%, on practically everything you purchase and many other taxes taken out of our weekly paycheck. You have to pay a whopping amount to the government, out of your hard earned salary, so that the government can turn around and give it to beer drinking, hockey watching welfare bums. Fair? It does not matter, it's Canada.
4. Money Hungry Government.
Canadian Embassies around the world lie to foreigners, painting this picture that Canada is Utopia, because they want them to come to Canada. Why? Because foreigners bring money! So after being deceived, these foreigners come. They must bring with them at least $10,000. Canada has an immigration quota of 250,000 per year. So please do the math, 250,000 multiplied by $10,000 each equals a whopping 2.5 Billion dollars that Canada gains from immigrants every year.
3. No Culture.
Unlike almost every other country in the world, Canada has no culture. Actually American culture is what dominates Canada. When was the last time you had some 'Canadian' food? There are no Canadian traditions and there is no national identity. What does it even mean to call yourself a 'Canadian'. . .nothing really. People living in Canada, still identify themselves with the country they 'originally' came from.
2. Worst Weather.
Yes, Canada has the worst weather conditions of any country in the world. Freezing cold temperatures, snow, ice, hail, winds, storms etc. From the Prairie provinces to the Maritimes, from the Territories to southern Ontario, the weather is so horrific and disgusting that many Canadians leave Canada simply because of this reason alone.
1. No Jobs.
Yes, coast to coast, there are no jobs. Immigrants are highly qualified (MD's, PhD's, Lawyers, Engineers etc.) but they are driving taxi cabs, delivering pizza's or working in factories. Even people with bachelors degrees from Canadian Universities cannot find jobs after graduation. This is the tragedy associated with immigration to Canada. I feel sorry for those immigrants who are stuck in Canada for the rest of their lives. It is indeed a very sad and hopeless future.
Canada is a scam. You were told a lie.
But, to claim its a whites only problem is absurd.
In fact in comparison to most countries it is very tolerant.
It doesn't take much searching to find some depressing examples of how India treats its own minorities and refugees.

"Extremists have since adopted this mantra, protesting to demand full deportations and using billboards and front-page advertisements to convey propaganda and threats to local Rohingya."
You probably wasted 20 grand in one year renting a suffocating basement apartment that has a rodent, silverfish, cockroach and sewage problem for C$1,999 a month + utilities. You were probably lied that you would get a job in your field, but persisted in sending thousands of resumes to get no reply or being disrespected by the HR who only wanted you to advise you that you lack the holy "Canadian experience".
If do you manage to find a well-paid job, the local Canadians would assume that because you're Brown or Black, that you're a refugee or other racist assumption.
Did you read the stories? Educated immigrants are being accosted with violence by the far rigt, and several posters have complained that there is a madman on the loose yelling Hindu and Muslim chants disrespectfully when harassing presumed immigrants on the streets.
Why did you come here WANNA LEAVE?
You're trapped here FOR LIFE!
You either go with the flow, rot and become homeless or fight back against the racists. You have no choice to leave. You're trapped here!
It's a toxic environment.
Imagine being told a lie that Canada is this welcoming country
only to be told that Canadians who live outside of Toronto are racist, xenophobic and they dislike immigrants.
Toronto= Canada for non-whites.
I want to LEAVE!
The shyster embassy agents will tell you to bring everything and your life savings to Canada
But once you arrive, the bigots will assume that you're a refugee, and the fair-minded Canadians will be unable to offer any help because they are also working paycheque to paycheque in this dump.
Toronto rents are rising & the powers that be are not doing anything urgently to prevent mass homelessness and civil unrest.
For your own good, if you are a professional and you DON'T have a job offer from a Canadian company that pays at least $4,000 a month, DON'T come to Toronto. You will be only waste your money and time here. It's a trap!

How is that going to pay the 10% rent increase when your wages are frozen for the decade?
Whites are screwed as well
It's not like Toronto is working for the benefit of whites who aren't already in the upper-middle class
Nobody can afford to live here, nobody is having kids (except the poor and wealthy), everyone is in debt
What sucks about Toronto is that everybody acts like this is normal
like it's normal to have no family and no future
The middle class here is over and done with
In ancient Babylon, it was a mixed-pot of cultures and was a hedonistic one with the pagan rituals and way of life.
The world "babble" comes from Babylon and it perfectly describes Toronto which is home to hundreds of languages.
Nothing good is ever going to come from moving to Toronto because it's the Babylon system. The white woman have brainwashed your wife, daughter and son to support the Babylon system, while you have to work 44 hours or more a week to pay the overpriced rent in the Babylon system.
You will find out that though you were respected as a Manager at a bank in Asia or Africa, the white woman views you as pond scum, while the white man views you as an 'illiterate refugee' as one poster remarked.
The white man and white woman have oppressed non-white countries for hundreds of years, yet you expect to be treated fairly in the white man system called Babylon in Toronto?
Rent control doesn't apply for new leases. If the apartment is being offered under a new lease, the Landlord can just hike the price to the city average of $2,000 per month for a one-bedroom apartment. You are not going to find one-bedroom apartments for $1,500 a month anymore these days unless it's in a faraway part of the GTA and the apartment is located in a crime-ridden area where gangs and gun violence are common.
I am sensing fear, apprehension and anger brewing within Toronto. It's a potential case of civil unrest and riots. It's unfair that greedy property owners are hiking rents yet freezing wages.
It also doesn't matter if the wage is increased, because the property owners and the grocery stores would just hike prices again and offset the wage increase. Toronto is not a first world developed country but worse than the third world feudal societies.
Employers are also demanding WORK EXPERIENCE to work for no wages as unpaid interns. Yes, you got that---Canadian employers expect university graduates and professional skilled immigrants to work for FREE!
It's also racist to assume that refugees are uneducated or illiterate. Some refugees had jobs, homes, careers and businesses before Canada starting joining the American Empire to destabilize those defenseless nations into oblivion.
Make up your mind Canada!
Why do you want immigrants to bring their life savings in Toronto, yet you treat them as an underclass?
www.thestar.com/business/2020/01/15/toronto-rents-shot-up-at-the-fastest-rate-in-a-decade-in-2019.html
Think very hard if you want to leave your middle class job to be treated as a refugee in Toronto and be subject to racist taunts and assaults from the Polish nationalist.
The man who harasses Hindus and Muslims by lumping them together as Arabian refugees is someone from the Yellow Vests or Northern Guard white supremacist movement. Some have claimed that the Yama Yama man is Ed Jamnisek, a racist who was famous for trying to libel a co-owner of Soufi's and inciting violence against Muslims.
His other Yellow Vest supporters like Kevin Johnston was sued for libel and Johnston has declared war on immigrants because he has to pay $2,000,000 for libel.
The local Canadians are listening to the Polish nationalist and creating tensions. It would be karma if a young Arab beat up Ed Jamnisek or Kevin Johnston for harassing Muslims and Hindus. They were also reported to have incited violence against immigrants using anti-Islamic and Trudeau conspiracies.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/mcdonald-s-reusable-mug-recycle-waste-tim-hortons-starbucks-1.5413000
Toronto might end up with civil war if the local Canadians keep on compromising the minimum wage jobs of the non-whites for ludicrous reasons.
In other words, Toronto is a Ponzi scheme?
What makes me laugh is that those who are harassing immigrants (such as the anti-Islamic "Yama Yama" man) are the Baby Boomer generation who bought houses when they were five times the wages of a GROCERY STORE CLERK in the 1960s and 1970s.
To buy a house in Toronto requires a salary of $100,000 year, and the house is TEN TIMES that wage.
Toronto is a Ponzi scheme.
What happens when the serfs can no longer afford the extortionist rents? Will they revolt against the rich and landlord classes rather than attacking the immigrants who were conned into coming here?
Canada doesn't need Canadians to reproduce themselves
Canada can just import infinite immigrants from countries with high fertility rates to replace its labor force
Canada and other Western countries have essentially outsourced the physical reproduction of its citizens
If anything, families are now a problem for Canada because they are more self-sufficient and some kind of return on their investment, like being able to continue to exist
the situation is absurd and i can't believe Canadians just accept this as normal
this would be considered insane in most parts of the world
https://www.blogto.com/city/2020/01/someone-all-ttc-delays-toronto/
It just shows that the landlords and the elite benefit from importing 500,000 foreign students and 300,000+ immigrants yearly to Toronto to clog up the system and create more consumers and serfs.
Meanwhile, your teachers will tell you that you shouldn't form families or make children, while insisting that we should bring more people into Toronto because of "low birth rates", transforming 30-seater TTC buses into packed Bangladeshi slums of over 100 people inside the bus, and subways that are triple the capacity of the safe limit.
Toronto, make up your mind. You want us to not make children in this costly hellhole, yet you and the landlords feast on scamming 300,000 immigrants to compete for the $2,000/month 1-bedroom apartments!
It's basically become unaffordable for the average Torontonian now
Even my well-educated high-income friends are struggling
My friend and his wife have a household income of around 140k after tax and their mortgage for a townhouse (no backyard) is gonna take them like 30 years to pay off
What is the average person supposed to do?

Toronto has what? No jobs to speak of, and rental prices are crazy all around the city.
Where is the relaxation, tolerance and acceptance? Why is Toronto succumbing to the Polish nationalist and harassing immigrants and making life miserable for everyone?

If you want to leave your secure middle class job in Asia or the Caribbean to live in a city of pimps, gangsters, gun violence and extortionist tenants, then be my guest and come here to suffer; worse, come here with your family and see your entire life fall apart.
Canada is for the desperate who is content with mediocrity. If you're coming here to become the next entrepreneur or success story, then sorry to break it, but what makes you different than the 300,000 other immigrants who have to work for free to gain Canadian workplace experience?

Pick your poison. Toronto is turning into a dump for the rest of us, and a paradise for the 1%.
Toronto doesn't have a thriving culture, aside from Canadian-borns stealing the dialects and cultures from immigrants to profit. Example: Caucasian females singing on Jamaican reggae songs and sounding poorly imitating Jamaican Patois, while the Jamaican immigrants are taught to change their accent to "Canadian" to prevent discrimination in the job market.
Toronto is a culture-less and soulless city. It has to steal the cultures of immigrants and the land of the Natives to exist. This is why every government document and office has a virtue-signalling "We respect the lands of the First Nations", while the pillage of current Native lands across Canada (for oil companies) continue to this day.
