U.S. Vice-President JD Vance made a series of posts criticizing Canada’s political leadership, public broadcaster and immigration system, saying our living standards are “stagnating” because of all the “foreign-born” people living here.
In posts to his X account Friday, Vance says Canada’s elected leaders have created “immigration insanity” by leaning into diversity.
“While I’m sure the causes are complicated, no nation has leaned more into ‘diversity is our strength, we don’t need a melting pot, we have a salad bowl’ immigration insanity than Canada,” he said.
An ambulance trip costs about $350 in Saskatoon. In most parts of the USA it’s anywhere from $400 with insurance to $1400 and up without insurance. So it isn’t as if they have it any better.
For sure Canada is not worse than the US, but I’m also not a worse driver than most 80 year olds. We should be comparing ourselves to countries like France and Norway not the circus fire to our south.
