SURVIVAL

 FEDERAL WORKERS IN CANADA finally voiced out their grievances and STRIKE just happened...out of work walking with placards and messages they want to be publicly seen nationwide all around the country. The contract they want haven't heard for two years and even if they were offered the "deal" still doesn't apply for majority of them because of skyrocketing inflation. One worker after another was interviewed that $45,000/year salary is not enough. Hey reality people, $45,000 salary is just $3,750/month and in today's economic downturn that amount is just a mortgage payment for their housing, and what about the food supply? What about utilities? What about other expenses such as gas for their vehicle, insurance, bills from hydro (electricity), gas heating, medicare (most of government employees receive free dental and medical care) cellphones,  telephone landline, education expenditures for age school kids, clothing, all the basic needs that every family needs. $45,000 not enough for any standard of living in our brave new world in order to survive. That you cannot really blame those government servants. They  worked hard for the government and the people and if their demands are not met then who they have to blame?

And you think being homeless is just a matter of  ordinary life for people without ambition and people who are lazy and unemployed?

You could end up homeless because there is no affordable housing available. There are few available houses or apartments out there but in a bad location and houses that need renovation (fixer upper) and if there are decent housing, condominiums  and apartments they are simply built for people whose income are above $5,000 -$10,000/month. 

In the US anybody trying to show up un-announced at their doorsteps they are met with gunshot. You wonder why. Do you have cars pulling out in a cul-de sac areas and using your driveways like as if its part of public highway? How many times too much? you have strangers keeping an eye from a distance, watching your house and every move? 

I remember so many times, there are cars pulling in and out where we live before in a house in cul-de sac area and most of them were realtors!!!!!! They always are in search of houses that they can sell to their clients even if the house is not for sale. They are persistent. That was long time ago. Canada is not America. In America, maybe the persistent and persuasion is too much and you cannot stop those old people from using their property rights against INVASION. You know damn well what invasion and Americans are not that naive to sense something like that no matter what the other people think. They are patriots!
