Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
Our governments can't plan a few years ahead, let alone decades. We haven't been able to line up healthcare, child care, transit, or housing improvements to cover the relatively small population increase of the last ten years.
If we want to have 100 million people, we need to build a country that can support them. We struggle to adequately support our existing population.
We need to build more and denser housing. We need a better transportation plan than everyone driving a SUV down the 401. We need a healthcare system that can support everyone.
That's nice. You going to pay the taxes needed to do it, uncle moneybags?
Because right now, you and your crew are lobbying to reduce funding so that none this happens. You want childcare and transit and housing? Fucking pay for it.
Jesus, these twits are tone-deaf..
