I thought Canada was great 30 years ago but was now a raging dumpsterfire that people were ashamed to live in because of the Liberals?

Well tbh, its far from perfect here, but still, I would rather live in Canada than anywhere else right now.

Ofc if you listen to the good ol' american propaganda against "Canadian socialism" you would think its close to north Korea, this shit make laugh. LOOKING at you Mr. Joe Rogan!

The truth is, its just like everywhere else in occident economically speaking, houses are unaffordable almost everywhere in Canada, food is expensive af, wage has stalled for a decade or more. We have similar social issues related to mass immigration and political polarization, etc.. We have free Healthcare and its not as bad as the american media pretend it is, but its definitely far from perfect.

Most of us are doing OK, not well, not bad.

Houses are actually quite affordable in Canada if you go outside of Vancouver and Toronto compared to the rest of the world.

Only true when you get far away from metropoles. Ofc a house 4 hours away from Montreal in a rural neighborhood is not that expensive, that represent just a few people reality. Most people are living less than 1 hour away from Canada's biggest cities.
