Food. Shelter. Healthcare. In a lot of places water. Just staying in general is markedly more difficult.
Have you seen Canadian house prices?
I do believe the reputational damage caused by the orange one might be one of the things. That and obvious tariff issues. Hopefully it’s temporary , or you have people who just don’t care.
Being stuck in a shitty job, because you now have a medical condition, and the insurance of the job you want refuses to cover you.
A friend in the US told me: I cannot work more hours because I need to keep my income at specific range to be able to qualify for provisional or federal medical insurance.
This is so fucked up.
Literally the poverty line
Surprise medical bills; random shootings; a fascist dictator leading the country; the complete and entire erosion of the rule of law

It’s more relevant in the states right now, but this is something we should all worry about all the time.
To clarify for anyone who missed it:
Trump made a law that states that the president of the US is above the law.
This means that, even after the next election, he could remain president, since the laws that prevent this don’t apply to him. He could also just straight up shoot one in the streets and wouldn’t be able to be punished.
Wait really lol? Idk how this could legally have happened? And why isnt this across the news (nobody is allowed to say some degree of “but that’s what they want you to think”) lol

I think we might need a book to answer that. A comment seems insufficient.
Joining over half a million homeless feral humans
constantly threatened by a right wing party, who has used voter suppression to always win most of the time, and DEMS who are also DINOs , on the right but is elected as a “left” president, but votes with the gop on many things. which is why they dont immediately repeal things like tax cuts, or patriot act, or right now unlikely to repeal anything when palintir finishes all thier databases of individuals in the us. also no healthcare, because Ds would lose thier bargaining chip into getting elected in the future, so its just stringing voters along. also billionaires have significant sway us policy. when both parties are right wing, one is center right but the other is on far right, its very hard to make progress here.
always dealing with how white people behave around POC groups, if you’re a pOC some caucasian groups will always give you some wierd vibes, like give you a nasty stare, or immediately try to quickly walk away. also dealing with reverse white flight.

Freedom.
To me it lately sounds like Canadians do need to worry a bit about “freedom” being brought to them.
Yep, we’re free to pay up and fall in line, or fuck off and die. That’s the choice. Also for too many there’s no choice, you get both.
Freedom costs a buck oh five
Having moved from one to the other
- Health insurance (it’s not perfect but it’s something)
- Random shootings (they still happen but are not as endemic)
- Corn syrup in literally every food
- Having clean streets (particularly in cities)
Starting a war, forgetting your gun somewhere and only having your spare one to work with, making the payment on your medical bills, remembering if the McRib is back, worrying that the exploited people who did all the things you don’t feel like doing will be deported, and forgetting to tell the President “thank you” every day as a tribute to their brilliant leadership.
Easy: destroying the world out of sheer stupidity and greed.
Medical bills and insurance.
Can confirm. You never know if the standard procedure will cost couple of hundred or thousands.
