Are you talking about the CERB sub or the Canada subs?
The Canada subs have become pretty fucking angry these days about just about everything. You'll see a lot of pro-Trudeau or Singh shit but that's just because internet shilling call centres are dirt cheap these days.
As for the CERB sub, that's just a bunch of homeless people and government housing welfare cases comparing notes about how to rip off the government and getting angry about their fraud being revealed.
I wouldn't put too much stock in reddit. It's like facebook with more censorship, more fake posts and less interesting memes these days.
Fuck that shithole.

It should be pretty obvious to everyone at this point that this government isn't going to stand long enough to see May 24.
Singh knows that his best throw is within the next few months which will be his last chance to score some votes based on Canadians who want to work but are on benefits. He can snake a few people who are mad about having to pay taxes on their CERB or who are mad about having to pay back their CERB as well.
Meanwhile, Trudeau also knows that Canadians' moods are starting to become mutinous and that the longer it goes, the more annoyed the country becomes.
Especially as we hear about all of the money they squandered during the pandemic compared to what they actually spent propping up the country. The cost of the CERB, CRB and CEWS is less than 200 billion and we'll probably find that they embezzled/squandered twice that amount at some point.
And then there's all the China shit.
Pandemic election within the next 90 days. Should be fun.

Holy shit, he actually shouted out Sojaboy in that video.
Apparently TLC is financing African music videos to promote 90-day now. That's an interesting development in this shit-show of a series.
No one thinks that she's a hottie.

I have not, I will have to look that one up because I'm sure it will be outstanding. I had no idea that she'd made a music video, I doubt it tops Baby Girl Lisa's but it can't be far off.

The weird thing about BLM in the UK is it just keeps going because they aren't aware that it's just US election bullshit.
I'm particularly shocked because unlike in North America, their feelings about the Jews were made clear and a bunch of football teams disavowed them based on those statements.
What I found to be particularly disingenuous was a couple of days ago when all of the ex-footballers in the press were reacting in outrage to Millwall's supporters booing the taking-of-the-knee when it was literally the best thing that horde of total fucking lunatics have ever done. They've been a violent horde of psychopaths for well over a hundred years, with all kinds of associations with fascist movements but how dare they boo the BLM knee and disrespect the proud legacy of Colin Kaepernick?
I understand that footballers want shoe deals and shit but this sports cuckery from across the pond is beyond ridiculous and that's without even getting into today's incident. What the fuck was that?
For those of you who don't follow the sport, Istanbul's assistant coach was giving shit to the 4th official, to the point where he got ejected but when the ref was asking which coach had abused him, he said "the black one over there."
As this was apparently a dire hate crime Istanbul left the pitch and refused to return, then PSG did the same thing in solidarity.
Erdogan of all people, demanded that UEFA apologize, which they did and now the game will be replayed tomorrow with all new refs and the assistant coach's card has been rescinded.
The state of the beautiful game these days, I swear to god.

That was the best, I laughed my ass off when I discovered that countries exist where their governments fuck their people with taxes even harder than ours.
You need to understand that the women on this show are utterly untouchable in America though. Some women can't get dick unless they're abusing a naive foreigner who just wants to live in the US.
Take Ari for example, I'll list shit that's wrong about her and you tell me where you'd run away screaming.
30 year old woman who dropped out of school to "travel the world" on her father's dime, now lives at home and works part time in her father's office as a backup receptionist.
Can't stop talking about all the other cultures she "experienced."
Hideous nose job that seems to have been done multiple times to the point where she looks like a pig and her voice has become exceptionally weird.
Nagging, and constantly says shit about how jealous she can be.
History of mental illness and eating disorders. Medicated of anxiety yet still has anxiety attacks at "convenient" moments.
Ex-cutter whose arms (and thighs most likely) are just covered in cutting scars. The camera tries to minimize it but she's engaged in some serious self-harm over the years.
Believe me, if Ariela hadn't have literally found the dumbest, and most naive professional nightclub dancer in the world she would not be able to find anyone who would even stick around long enough to have a 1-night stand. That girl is a fucking wreck as is all the other women on that show.
I'll happily tell you everything that's wrong with any of them who you think you could stand for a second as well. Those women are fucked.

Oh fuck, too much.
The wife got me into it, then she couldn't handle the shit-show anymore and left me addicted. It's the wrongest show in the world.
So far I've seen a 50-year old ex-lesbian catfish a 20-year old Yemeni who really, really wants to live in America, a 60-year old grandma move in with her 20-year old boyfriend in India, bang him under his parents' roof and destroy his arranged marriage, a girl who'd been passed around by every sports team in her school who converted to Islam and moved to Syria just to be with someone who wouldn't treat her like a slut, a literal unwashed troll who styles his hair with mayonnaise using a new minimum wage salary to bang a 19-year old Thai single mother and a couple of total fucking perverts who have spent tens of thousands of dollars getting scammed by the Ukrainian Pornhub popups.
And then there's Avi. The JAP nervous wreck with all kinds of cutting scars who traveled the world only to get knocked up by an Ethiopian night club go-go dancer.
The story is just incredible.
First of all, as one might expect the dude is one of the dumbest people to ever grace the planet and he has no idea what's going on.
The real joy of it though is watching the existential crisis that only the most pampered of people facing the reality of living in Ethiopia on a male go-go dancer's salary could experience.
It is a meltdown-a-minute and she actively talks about how much she loves a culture and way-of-life that she clearly despises.
Oh, and then there's the entire religious angle. The religious angle is fucked. She's an agnostic Jew who is deeply against the concept of hell and circumcisions, yet she constantly loses religious arguments to Ethiopian Orthodoxes because the Ethiopians believe in their faith while she does not.
Even worse, she behaves like an anti-semetic trope at times. Whenever the zealous Ethiopian preachers try to aggressively rub a bible in her face she cringes and twists away like it burns her or when one of them was trying to douse her and her baby down with holy water from a firehose she freaked out and made excuses to avoid it touching her.
Binyam even said "she's got an evil spirit inside her that is terrified of the holy water and forces her to shrink away" or something.
(Ethiopian Orthodox is so fucked.)
I love that show. I love that show so fucking much. It's just so wrong!

That's just the difference between getting an arts degree as someone who is working class, and getting an arts degree as a member of our shockingly hereditary political class.
Freeland is elite, she isn't Trudeau-elite but she's a 3rd generation politician from a prominent political family. Her degree doesn't matter, the important thing for her was "activism."
Blood is everything when it comes to our federal parties,

Here's what you need to know about absolutely every single group that pops up these days.
Someone somewhere saw an opportunity, spent 4 hours on social media gathering followers then 3 more hours designing a logo.
There will be an ecommerce site which sells merchandise, and a bunch of gofundme's.
All activist organizations are started by someone who wants notoriety and needs a paycheque.
Moral crusaders are shitheads. No exceptions.

Ironically that's an idea that came straight from colonial repression, propaganda and demonization of enemies.
Something that someone who is such an expert on decolonalization should understand.
In case anyone isn't a literal retard, Romanic depictions of the Celts and the Brittani are blatantly falsified to make the people they were conquering look like subhuman barbarians to justify their campaigns.
They weren't unwashed and they didn't collect skulls either.
Unlike some people...
The thing that scares me about school these days is that it's become great at imparting a tiny bit of knowledge without any context or encouragement to critically think.
It's an appalling situation.

What you need to understand is that is virus is an incomplete bioweapon that us and our allies were working on intently, but that was stolen from a Canadian lab by the Chinese and accidentally released.
We've been working on the vaccine as long as we've been working on the virus and that virus seems to be a hybrid of SARS and AIDS.
I'll be taking that vaccine once it's available. I don't want to know what a bioweapon that had been fucked with by the Chinese for at least a year before being accidentally released does to someone who gets infected on a long-term basis.
The virus is not harmless, we only know that it's exceptionally infectious and relatively harmless the first time that someone gets infected.
I don't trust what the Chinese did with it. I don't even trust what our own governments were doing with it. All I know is that it can't have been good.
I'll have an Oxford, please. As soon as possible.

Yeah... he's going to end up fucking her at some point and that will be the only thing that he'll ever do in his life that will make me proud of him.
It's a match made in heaven. Poor, retarded Mexican bartender who inexplicably got into Congress and rich foreign aristocrat terrorist who inexplicably became leader of the NDP.
Both are known for retarded policies and pissing off everyone around them, but also being known for outstanding tiktok dancing videos.
I don't think I've ever felt closer to our brothers at thedonald. Our two most plastic and utterly useless politicians twitch streaming themselves playing a meme game that was popular with 12-year olds 4 months ago.
They are so going to fuck.
Politics, eh?

Nah, completely snapping just means that things get even more broken.
We know how the the French revolution went and that's a best case scenario. The worst case is Cambodian which had causative factors that are probably the most similar to the current state of things in Toronto.
Believe me, the basic rule of Canada is that the government is fucking terrible but the alternative is far worse.
We don't need a Khmer Rouge here and we'll get one if we aren't careful.

Toronto really has been taking the title of "Canada's craziest city" seriously this year.
Winnipeg, Calgary, Quebec City, St John's, Halifax, Moncton, St John, Hamilton, Montreal, Edmonton, or Vancouver; none of those cities have had a protest outside any politician's house because everyone realizes that's out of bounds.
Then there's Toronto.
In the past 6 months the good citizens of "Toronto the good" have had a violent protest outside their mayor's condo where people were fighting with police and trying to scale the walls so they could break in and now they've had a peaceful protest outside their Premier's house after he broke up their lockdown-defying "let's just live our fucking lives and have some bbq" demonstration.
That's twice in six months, Toronto.
I just hope that no one has said they're going to knock down the Skydome and turn the land into million-dollar shoebox condos because that city could get really stupid if such a thing were to happen.
Toronto has seemed to be on the verge of snapping for about 10 years now and it seems to be finally happening.
That fucking city, I swear to God.

Actually, let's talk about fucking minks and the Rona for a second.
Those who live in Southern Ontario know that there's been a real outbreak of minks recently. Some PETA dick decided to "liberate a farm" and he released a shit-ton of breeding-age minks into the wild some 5ish years ago and they've proliferated significantly.
If Doug Ford had a brain, he'd be handing out free rifles provided on the condition that everyone who gets one hunts as many mink as possible. That PETA dick unleashed an environmental catastrophe.
Now we learn that mink can get the rona and mutate it, and Southern Ontario has no ability to just order a cull like Denmark.
It was fun knowing you boys.

Who gives a shit about the fucking Emmies?
Are you seriously talking about the mainstream network awards show where mainstream networks give trophies to their employees for having the TV show that their bosses liked the most?
Cuomo is most likely going to get that award because his obscene death rate meant that everyone in the State was tuning in to his corona updates, meaning that the networks that carried them made tons of money off ad revenues.
American TV is poison.

Don't worry about the vaccine. By the time it's even available to our most vulnerable we'll have ample evidence about the long-term effects.
For all of the hundreds of billions of dollars we blew on this fucking pandemic the retard of Rideau Cottage didn't think about setting up any publicly owned companies that could have produced the vaccine for Canadians.
We just funded the research and helped out with it figuring that we'd get equal amounts at first because we were so cool about everything.
As it turns out, the world doesn't work like that so we'll be receiving the vaccine after the countries that actually produce the fucking thing.
I just feel for the Indo-Canadians. Imagine coming to Canada with the hope for a better life and discovering that Canada's government is way less competent than India's and thus their relatives back home will be vaccinated before it's available to them.
Our government sometimes.

If they give you benefits they can definitely claw some money back and the smaller the amount they claw back, the longer they claw them money back and the more interest charges are accrued.
The government can be quite heartless to people who are on benefits and nothing will ever change that.
Imagine paying back $12,000 that's running up interest charges at a rate of $50 a month. That's what people who wrongfully applied to CERB while on benefits are looking at for the foreseeable future.
So long as they receive benefits, they have money that can be garnished.

I'll talk about Trump and racism. In fact, I'll talk about the outbreak of racism that came with him being elected President.
Unlike almost all of the US Presidents we've seen in our lifetime Trump was a first-generation immigrant.
His family came over in the early 1900's, which sets him apart from the majority of the recent Presidents because that's exceptionally new blood as far as they're concerned.
Let me put it this way. Bush, Mayflower. Rodham, Mayflower. Obama, Speedwell.
Old blood in all cases.
So how did America react to it's first-generation immigrant parent?
They called him a Nazi despite no other evidence than his German ancestry, when his family had emigrated to the States well over 20 years before the rise of Hitler.
They laughed at how he had an Americanized surname and that his last name was really "Drumpf." People were running around wearing hats that were almost identical to his famous campaign apart from the slogan "Make Donald Drumpf Again."
You have to give it to the States. The more they change the more they stay the same.

The thing that you'll note about that announcement is that while it says that they'll only take the overpayment money back after the pandemic is over, they say nothing about stopping interest on the debt until the pandemic is over.
The CRA will always get their money. Canada will extract its taxes and the most insane thing a person could possibly do would be to take an overpayment and blow it.
Here's how the next few month go for people who wrongfully applied for the CERB or received overpayments. The ones who were are welfare or disability blew their money and are probably aren't going to survive their first winter on the streets.
As for the ones who were in a sound position yet took government payments wrongfully? They'll wait until they're forced to pay which will mean that the interest charges will have piled up and God help those that end up with their wages garnished.
Our government exists to extract wealth from its citizens, not increase it and I feel deeply sorry for anyone who blew a CERB overpayment or applied for that benefit when they didn't qualify.
