Quote from: "Hastings"People are being paid EI to stay at home, for many this would be the first time they have claimed welfare, because many have shitty and stressful jobs I think many people won't go back to work

EI only pays 55% of your wage(up to a certain dollar amount) for a certain amount of time depending on how many hours you worked in a 52 week period. You only get it if you lose your job of no fault of your own.

The max is around $1000 every two weeks.

Yes you can live on that if you know how

As long as you don't own a vehicle or have housing expenses.

I have subsidies rent and I don't have a vehicle, its a cash drain

You've worked very hard over the past decade at portraying yourself as a lone wolf and now you have the setting to match.

Depends on where you live. if you live somewhere like vancouver or Toronto then yeah there's no way in hell that's happening. if you live somewhere like where i am, then it can be done easily with a few hundred to spare even if you do have a vehicle.

Quote from: "Berry Sweet"2g/mo is peanuts to live off, that's just rent.  Which is fuckin ridiculous.



What happens to those on cerb because they are laid off from their jobs? Obviously, there is going to be change when the economy resumes.  What if some of them don't get their jobs back? Do we have to listen to them whine and complain? I think some people are going to be left unemployed, sitting in their own piss and tears.  And honestly, I don't want to hear about it.

More or less, sure. But this has been going on for some time now, you'd think we'd be used to it.



Were you aware that disability recipients in Ontario are expected to exist on half that amount?

Old Gaon lives in your city. I think he pays two grand a month for rent on his apartment.

That must mean couch surfing. You can't rent/pay a mortgage and own a vehicle in Winnipeg on two grand a month.

 Rent here is cheap. you can get a 2 bedroom place here for around 600-700$ per month. i pay my own power and water and gas are included for me, so that's around 75$ per month, and then internet, cell phone, insurance, gas, e.t.,c and that's 1200 or so all in. I've seen places in bigger towns go for about 800-900 per month in rent. That's if you don't mind living in some little hole in a wall town in the middle of nowhere that doesn't even have a tim hortons.

Quote from: "Mel"$2,000/month income in Canada is a joke, but the average full-time working income (after taxes) is only about $3,000/month, I kid you not...



That income would work if our expenses weren't what they are:  Apartment rental: $1,000+/month.  House rental: $2,000+/month.  Buying a decent home: $500,000+ mortgage.



My landline: $100/month.  Cellphone: $100/month.  Electric bill:  $300/month.  Internet:  $100/month.  The list can go on and on...



Canada's debt-to-income ratio is one of the highest in the world, and much higher than our neighbours to the South who,  contrary to popular belief, actually live just like we do, with only a few minor differences for the most part.



This is why Trudy is printing as much money as he can, accessible to pretty much anyone that applies for it:  We are on the verge of a massive collapse, and the house of cards are about to come crumbling down.

I don't know what your total assets would be if you liquidated the farm, nor if you still hold, or can regain, Uke citizenship, but if nothing prevents you from liquidating and moving your assets over, why not?  Even Ukraine has better weather than 90% of this frozen chunk of land called Canada!

Melskie doesnt like climbing... Those mountains go to waste.

I lived out there at one point...those mountains are also good for 4x4ing and paragliding is popular out there.. or so it was when I lived there.  I wouldn't hike those mountains unless you are like super tracker or something, and I most definitely wouldn't hike them without a shotgun.

I could have got like an overseas Ukrainian permanent residency which I could eventually turn into citizenship. But, I love my farm here. I do not like Canada, but I like my farm.

QuoteTrudeau scoffs at questions about hundreds of millions in fraudulent payments



We could be sending out as much as $400 million per month in fraudulent emergency payments but the federal government isn't doing anything to stop it.



Instead, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is attacking those asking questions.



The news comes from a story in the National Post that details how the federal government has suspended "compliance and enforcement" of the EI program during the pandemic.



Reporter Tom Blackwell obtained a copy of a memo sent out in late April to workers processing claims for employment insurance and the Canada emergency response benefit.



Employees at Employment and Social Development Canada were told to turn a blind eye to fraud.



"Effective immediately, while processing a claim, if an agent uncovers information that suggests potential abuse of the EI system by a client, an employer or a third party, they do not impose a stop pay and do not refer the file to integrity unless it is considered an urgent investigation," the memo stated.



The memo added the integrity service branch was "suspending all non-critical investigations" and that the department has "suspended all integrity operations activities for compliance and enforcement of the EI program."



The government has always admitted that it knew some people would get money they shouldn't but assured the public any cash that was wrongly issued will be chased down through audits and at tax time.



Citing government sources familiar with the program, the Post says there are 200,000 people receiving CERB even though they don't qualify.



When civil servants are speaking out about the fraud that is taking place, expressing their concerns to media outlets like CBC and National Post, then there is something to be looked into.



We aren't talking about a few cases, we're talking 200,000 cases at $2,000 a month for a tally of $400 million in fraud per month — and the PM thinks he can skate past that.
