Pierre Poilievre says immigrants are causing the housing crisis, and claims it’s “simple math.” But his math isn’t mathing.

PP is a different kind of corruption
Desmond Cole is never objective when it comes to police. They can never do anything right in his eyes.
Keep people in jail when they commit a crime. I know ceazy and radical idea right!??
I can see both sides of this. Police are made to deal with more and more of the shortfalls in other agency's abilities. Animal control's budget is cut so they don't work 24/7? Police get called for animal control after hours. Mental health $ aren't sufficient? Police deal with the fallout. Housing costs go up? Police deal with the issues caused by homelessness. And on and on. You can't cut services that people need and use and not pay the piper down the line. The police are also not the most efficient way to deal with issues. They don't/can't solve the actual problems and take up more money dealing with the criminal side of issues ($ for police time, court $, jail $). All that said, if the police need more money they need to be able to show why and show where the money is going. That means more than an increase in calls for service, it means what type of calls, what is happening on those calls, etc. The city should be able to say, for example, we see you had a huge increase in calls due to drug addiction, maybe we should spend the money the police are asking for on addiction centers. There needs to be transparency.
The Police use their ability to spy and gather information on politicians who they don’t like and use it to blackmail or extort these politicians. That is what is behind this resignation.
Israel 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
Two anti Semites
Mad respect to this mayor for standing up for the people and speaking out against the police state! Mayor Carolyn Parrish is pure gold and what all mayors should strive to be like ! ! !
It is a Police Board, not a ministerial office. Secrecy and lack of open, public debate is unacceptable.
I am instantly interested in this woman.
Why don't they put that money into homelessness prevention by subsidizing those who are most at risk for eviction? That would be a better use of funds, given that the majority of those utilizing the supports do so short-term. It's a win-win!
So PSB basically wants a check that they want to put minimal effort into justifying. Interesting.
Has anyone researched how the population has increased vs the number of officers? Peel police has the same number of officers they did in the 70s and are having difficulty retaining officers leaving for more inexpensive housing not in the GTA. Obviously if the call volume has massively increased it would make sense for the budget to increase.
Best interview in a long time 💯
I'd say this guy is the future of Canadian media and reportage.
Police need to do a better job and giving them money has not worked so far.
hmm this lady doesnt realize how corrupt Canada is.. she is probably on a list being watched, will be a target.
Carolyn for Premier plzzz
Can see where the future is going. Over worked over taxed and unlivable.
Thank you for this❤
Proof and statistics = Trust me bro😂😂😂😂
She should resign as mayor.
Peel Police is the MOST CORRUPT police force in Canada
In Sarnia they have brand new 4x4 trucks. What purpose does a truck serve a police officer ? They just soak the community for toys they don’t need.
Why is it always the ones that look like bog trolls?
Thank you Madam Mayor. That kind of sums up a lot of experience I've seen in my lifetime. These semi-secret bodies, even if it's City or Municipal Council holding "In Camera" meetings, hiding information from the Public when it's the Public's money and of interest to the Public. Open and transparent government, show me where.
How can you tell a politician is lying?
It's just like the Health Care Administration! Lol
A lot of politcal boards stipulate the need to agree to everything it says!😊 Kudos Mayor❤
If you add more officers aren't you going to need more judiciary so it doesn't get overwhelmed what's those unseen costs ?
How refreshing to hear a politician speak facts. This helps ppl understand the real issues.
Scary unethical and obviously they have too much power already. Is this true across Ontario? Is this true across Canada? Non disclosure rules are being abused, are ridiculous in this case and too widespread.
All boards behave this way, not just Police boards. This board is not behaving this way because it is a Police board per say, it is because people in positions of unchecked power become corrupt. That is one reason why democracy is so vital. I totally agreed with what Mayor Parrish had to say about taking care of kids and preventing criminality.
I think you really need to consider the quality of existing policing too do they need more officers because only one in four of them currently does their job properly as is? Be assertive and fire the bad ones defund them individually. Vancouver has Canadas highest paid cops for example but they can murder someone for a minor offence like Myles Gray and keep their jobs and don't even budget for body cameras either but tax payers should hire more evil unaccountable thugs but them new cars etc? Surrey too has a hell of a time with their RCMP the provincial safety minister says the city needs to switch to municipal police instead they are so terrible. Then yes they want to criminalize poverty next some nice easy targets elderly and disabled on fixed incomes while they turn a blind eye to violent repeat offenders car thieves etc?
I would beware of Conservatives that want to defund the CBC too for investigating cops that don't want to investigate themselves. ua-cam.com/video/wTK3hbRFKPY/v-deo.htmlsi=wM_7ZJH5mfbCppKr
Hmmm, sounds like our EPS here in Edmonton.
peel cops are ooooooone step away from operating like the gestapo in ww II
👏 👏 👏 👏
Why is policing so expensive? If diversity is strength then Toronto should be the safest area in Canada. Justine said that a while ago. Was Justine wrong?
This was a great interview. Mayor Parrish's transparency and principled stand is a rarity in politics.
If we get 300 more officers and the crime don’t stop, what’s next? Remember Ford took community $s and gave it to police and crime tripled.
I’m sorry. Did I hear that right? She’s not PERMITTED to criticize? Keep backing the blue, you bootlicking cop kissers.
So how do we fix the social issues?
Time. What you resist persists. Any authoritarian attempting to tell people what they may say or read or think are doomed to fail. No one wants a nanny state determining what social issues deserve attention and which do not. We elect representatives, not parents.
It's pretty simple how these two "teams' line up. Israel gets support from some Conservatives because they see Israel as "white". Palestinians get lefty support because they are seen as "brown" and therefore the "oppressed". The reality is these are just two tribes cut from the same cloth that are neither white nor brown but something altogether different. It's as simple as that.
She deserves no credit. She is an antisemitic radical. Disgusting. Do better MISSISSAUGA!
Just gonna throw out smears free of evidence without any detailed criticism, huh? Might as well shove your fingers in your ears and run away shouting “La La La I can’t hear you!”
@ferociousgustafson4040 then clearly you don't know anything about the pro T mayor. Before mouthing off, educate yourself. Sorry the truth hurts you.
This issue is where "conservatives" make their big mistake. We want fiscal responsibility in every other aspect of government but not the police for some messed up reason. It's completely illogical and an Achille's heel.
We are essentially a police state run by corporations through government proxy. Police look and are as well equipped as any army. They look less like police and more like special forces and that is by design. It keeps us afraid and in our place.
The insane equipment is more to balloon the budget than anything else. It is justified by the (odd) idea that police should face no danger when discharging their duties.
Since 2011, 150 resolutions against Israel at the United Nations. This is on average, over 11 anti-Israel resolutions each and every year. The entire UN structure needs to be abolished, as does this Jew hater.
What genocide?
The Mayor is smart because the police are so corrupted
The police don't like her - they have dirt on her and she knows it.
