The frostbite thing is awful. I feel like the Canadian government is pretty bad at holistic, helpful services. These pieces that describe how newcomers are dumped with virtually no supports don’t make me feel any better.
Do you mean ‘supports’ like struts and crutches, or is this a typo and you meant support programmes and support from neighbours? The two are very different.
Not sure if you’re failing at Dad jokes or just generally being pedantic but this isn’t helpful or funny. Take that shit over to Reddit if you must be that way.
Canada actively tries to find skilled immigrants in other countries, often countries with no concept of Canadian winters. I’m not saying that immigrants deserve “extra”, I’m saying if we’re going to spend money to try and bring in these highly skilled immigrants, we might as well ensure we keep our investment by preparing them for their first winter.
Canada: better than 50C heat and sandstorms. /s

We get it, you’re a grammar Nazi. Be constructive or go away.
I’m sorry bad writing offends you. Me too.
I’m sorry you decided anyone trying to help is a Nazi. I promise they’re not the same thing, and maybe that’s not cool anyway.

I love you guys. Asking for clarity is insulting to you.
You know what he meant. Cut it out, pedantry doesn’t help.
Think of how it would have gone with a moment spent getting it right.
Isn’t that the immigrant life?
When did the culture go from immigrants working their own niche to immigrants asking for more support than the average citizen?
