When the early data came in from Wuhan, and to a lesser extent, southern Europe, the data suggested a fatality rate between 8-15% (due to the virus being much larger than thought, and most people not being tested). At this point in time the government received advice, from the Canadian Forces, advising them to take immediate actions to shut down airports. Canada refused to do this because it would make them look racist. There was evidence suggesting that this could wipe out up to 5,000,000 Canadians, and Canada chose not to take action due to images.
Now that we know the true fatality rate is between .2-2% (overall, no consideration of age, gender, comorbidities), the government is more than willing to restrict your ability to leave the country. They still will not impose any restrictions, except for a one month stay on flights DIRECTLY from India, where 99% of people fly in via Europe or SE Asia.
Don't ever forget that this never had anything to do with a virus, but as an opportunity to erode your civil liberties. This never had anything to do with safety or health. Soon, we will not be able to criticize the government without censorship. Dark times are coming to this country, and most of the West, but the world will not fall yet.
I'm making my obligatory, start making exit plans to other non-western countries post. Buy real estate now with a strong CAD (not in Canada you stupid fuck). I'm a lawyer, and am willing to answer legal questions you may have that will assist in you escaping this shithole. Once the travel restrictions are lifted, start shopping abroad. You have no idea how big the world is, and you're not constrained to this country.
Nope, that's media brainwashing. Travel man, the world is so much better than you think. Do you also believe Canada has the best healthcare system in the world? When there area countries that Canada calls third world, with much better statistics?
I desperately want to escape but I am too poor.
The US government (Trump) was censored last year! Conservative voices on Twitter were banned over the course of a few weeks in January. Banning continues on all sorts of platforms like YT.
I'm sorry, you're about 6 months behind reality right now.
The scene is already set to make the coof shots MANDATORY. The precedent has already been set.
You think we will have time to go to court over these kinds of issues? Or that the court will uphold our rights and freedoms?
I'm not trying to blackpill here. I'm just pointing out that our situation is dire. I have no idea what to do about it. Getting out, to somewhere that has already banned coof jab passports, is likely a good idea. The only other options are civil disobedience and get the current orders shut down by courts before the government goes full natzi.
Dude, I'm a litigator and I'm telling you I DON'T have faith in the court system. It's so much worse than you think. Right now, the only people that even get considered for judgeships are far left radical retards. These are people that can barely think, have IQ's <100 (yes, there are MANY of them that practice law), yet are being pushed to the top of the legal profession. The only thing saving the system right now is old judges, who are incredibly hard to remove. Once they die and are replaced with radicals, the system collapse will facilitate itself.
I never once suggested the legal system would save you. I'm saying the exact opposite. The system is more fucked than you realize.
I'm going to repeat the same thing I've said 1000x on this forum. THIS COUNTRY CANNOT BE SAVED. YOU ARE GETTING MORE OUTNUMBERED DAILY. GET THE FUCK OUT.
The CAD is as at .81 USD. Far from strong. Under Harper we reached parity with the US Dollar. The oil price has to gain another $30 until we can speak about a strong CAD.
Were never going to see a strong CAD$ with Trudeau in office. Deficit much too high.
The US is spending as much, if not more as we.
Yeah but the US has always had a stronger economy. I just don't trust that Trudeau can get us in a good spot
US: $3.3 to $3.7 trillion deficit, $21 trillion GDP. Deficit to GDP ratio of 15.7% to 17.6%.
Canada: $360 billion to $400 billion deficit, $2.3 trillion GDP. Deficit to GDP ratio of 16.3% to 18.1%.
They spend as much as we do.
You know that 5 years ago we were substantially lower than the US wrt debt/gdp, right?
Strong CAD isn't the right term, but it's strong relative to the USD.
Already working on PR in Mexico for myself and the family.
Leaving in 2 months.
Good luck living in this communist shithole!
I'll be honest, I have not looked at Mexico. I've considered 3 countries in Central America, and Panama looks to the best option there.
Mind if I send you a PM? I'm interested in your rational for Mexico.
Thanks.
PM away!
I already live/work outside Canada 4 to 5 months a year in Central America.
Working on getting that up to 9 months a year, and only visiting Canada in June, July, August to visit family and friends. I dislike snow, and what Canada has become in recent years.
It’s amazing, their level of trust. They must know though that it’s an all or nothing thing. They might have some sense that if they flip that switch and stop trusting one part of it, the whole ruse collapses. They have probably seen friends abandon the TV and how once you seek for truth outside of it, a whole torrent of truths come at you. So to their eyes it might appear that by letting go of the TV we are being sucked into madness, so they are clinging on even tighter.
I ask every single one of them if government has ever lied to their people.
Some see the point, but the most common answer is "they aren't this time"
How sure of that are you?
Eastern Europe doesn't seem bad but if war broke out I might rather be in Canada. At least there's a better chance of holing away in a remote northern community without much notice even if the rest of North America has gone to hell.
I've thought about Canadian collapse vs global collapse, and the former seems far more likely. Therefore I think E. Europe is a great option, but not far east (stay away from the Baltic, they are next to get invaded by Russia).
So...the middle East? You won't see me there. I'm not wearing a fucking burka.
Not if you're a woman.
I mean either way I'd rather not die for refusing to comply with Muslim shit. There's a lot of persecuted Christians over there too.
That's not really a Canadian law question, but I have independently done a lot of research into foreign immigration. Essentially, you could divide the world into 3 categories: 1. Western countries - Will not take in white refugees 2. Developing countries (most of the world) 3. Authoritarian countries with strict immigration laws (you don't want to move here, they don't want you). This really only leaves a large number of developing countries. What people don't understand is that with a strong CAD, you can live a quality of life much higher than a typical Canadian with the equivalent of a Canadian income. This is why so many people send money home to their home countries.
It is generally extremely easy to immigrate to the second category. For the first category, you will never get in as a refugee, so you're only hope is through the investor class, or visa class if you just so happen to have an in demand job. Most western countries make it more challenging to move here than Canada does, so Canadians may have unrealistic expectations. Further, many of these western countries are facing the same issues as Canada.
Again, focus on the second category. This leaves parts of Eastern or Southern Europe, parts of SE Asia, Central America, or South America, as viable options. Personally, I am buying in S and C. America, since the strong CAD/USD makes many places quite affordable right now. Although these nations would undergo a brief crises due to hyperinflation once the USD collapses, it would be temporary, and they will just peg to a new currency. Therefore I would strongly encourage that you check out these regions, focusing on USD pegged currencies. Avoid ones with leftists governments, or too much military influence. Avoid direct neighbors to China or Russia.
Any thoughts?
For the second question, I will send you a PM. I don't do employment law, but I could assist in getting you someone I know to be good.
