CTV News is Canada's most-watched news organization both locally and nationally, and has a network of national, international, and local news operations.
Quite possibly the most ridiculous question ever asked by the News.
Right!!
Food is scarce but at least drugs are free and plentiful...
😂
You will own nothing and be happy
Exactly didn't think about that. 😢
6uild 6ack 6etter
Eggs-$7.49 Bread-$5.79 Butter$6.99. What possibly could go wrong ?
Wait till the extra carbon tax kicks in, $10/lb butter. We are being destroyed for the new world order, they want to build back better
Welcome to Trudeau's and Singh's Canada 😐
Too many immigrants
Thank you Liberals/NDPs. Job well done.
Why? that's a dumb question. Defund the news needs to happen sooner rather than later.
FJT
Justin Trudeau
World-wide.
@@createone100 no, the states are doing fine.
Student immigration, mass immigration =higher food prices higher housing higher everything...
Too many indians in Canada
Minimum wage salaries are a complete joke. Those who earn under 30,000.00 should not be taxed
Sure why not, you use the most social programs and you want others to pay for it? Get fawked.
Liberals say it's all about fairness. So let's tax everyone more.. socalism always works right?... right?
That's not fair and equitable.
Government taxes everyone to much,it's not the wages! If you put up the minimum wage inflation will go up again
Do indian visa students count as "Canadian"?
I will never vote for the liberal, ndp party tax tax tax, I love Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
What an absolutely ridiculous question. The government is taking all our money and sending it abroad. During record inflation, during rising interest rates.
Exactly, billions to Ukraine…
Because of Trudeau/Singh alliance
Justin Trudeau?
I saw a lady load her BMW trunk with food just picked up from the food bank. Fraud is everywhere
I was wondering how much that goes on🤬
I bet she was indian...
A lot
That's right!! I have a neighbor with a Mercedes SUV. She also gets gift cards from a local church. The problem is that you don't have to prove you're in need. You just have to show proof of being a resident of the city or town, where the food bank is. My other question is, how does she live in subsidized housing when she can afford a brand new MERCEDES. There's others, driving brand new LEXUS, AUDI. These vehicles cost 60,000-80,000 and nevermind the cost of insurance. "Single mothers" sitting at home with brand new expensive cars....
Something is not right 🤨
@@cj1613A lot of middle eastern too, husband and wife, with a nice car, at the food bank.
And lots of young, able bodied men.
Don't they work???
Pure genius story Captain Obvious.
The Liberal/NDP coalition is there to help the poverty class stay in poverty and help millions of others join it.
It’s called liberalism.
Students, often foreign are using the banks,also a large number of well to do seniors. They are often supplementing their incomes, not hungry.
Food bank is for poor Canadians not for any other countries students
2:37 The ticker says "TOP STORIES: I just don't get Taylor Swift" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i make 70k a year and i'm going to have to start going to the food bank - thanks Justin
What are you spending your money on?
@@RepublicOfWesternCanadaNOW mortgage/property tax keeps going up because my home went from being assessed at a modest 200k to 400K since the pandemic - this is due to all the immigration and the housing crissis, power keeps getting hiked, gas keeps going up with the crazy carbon tax, groceries keep going up because of carbon tax related to shipping and greedy CEOs, etc...mostly bills - can't afford anything anymore, thanks Justin
You mean that you are going to the food bank to maintain your standard of living. Hardly needy. Better hurry, the trough is getting crowded.
@@menacexp if you've got a mortgage, you don't need the food bank buddy, sorry, can't feel sorry for you.
@@RepublicOfWesternCanadaNOW got the mortagage before interest rates were through the roof and the house assessments went up over 100K, which increases property tax - it's ridiculous - yes, need food bank
Why are you not mentioning the carbon tax? It has increased to the cost of everything.
The accumulation of wealth, ecological crisis, covid, change in the mode of production, pollution and environmental degradation, so many things...
2 jobs....and can barely feed my kids..... nice job JT!!!
Blame covid again. Trudeau and Jagmeat did this, we need an election. Pierre Poilievre for Prime Minister. Axe The Tax.
Most of the food bankers dependant are international students the question is why ?it is that countries responsibility to give their students scholarships before sending them here
Election now !!!!
Say what??? The Carbon Tax Rebate just came out.. I guess that didn't help much!❤
My rebate only increased by $10. It used to cost me $55 to fill my 2003 Toyota Matrix from low fuel before the increase in carbon tax. I put in $60 of fuel in on Thursday and it didn’t fill it. I can’t even afford to drive to work anymore, but I start working before city transit starts. I serve the bus drivers just heading off to work at 5:00 am!
Absolutely 💯.
Should have had Poilievre on. He’s been hammering this point for almost 2 years now.
PeePee will take care of you😂😂😂😂😂😂
The grocery rebate aka GST rebate doesn't help. Huh 🤔
If you tell everyone they can get free food, they will come. Women & reporters, work hard to put all of the middle class, on free food!
No one should have to go to food banks they are not the answer
Welcome to trudeau's canada after 9yrs!
Because my rent is 80% of my Disability income. Medical insurance for necessary medications, basic bills. Food is a privilege
The carbon tax only affects you if you have a pool and three giant cars
We need to use land more efficiently.
So many new wineries popping up when that land could be used to grow food. Prince Edward County comes to mind. It's almost as if the business lobby is trying to prevent the use of land to grow food in order to keep food prices artificially high.
Near urban areas, more hydroponic and acquaponic systems could be set up to grow food. Even downtown, some empty office buildings could be used for indoor farms.
The lowest income they’re talking of is 20,000.00 no higher.
You can’t even rent an apartment and have your own kitchen for that amount of money so I guess that food benefit is for the homeless
That's why we need to increase productivity! JT should start at looking at GDP per capita not just GDP
It is food bank abuse - more vetting !
Because they can!
I'm addicted to the food bank, I mean dependent, no maybe addicted, not sure really. probably dependent, have to think about this one...
cause TURDeau said "the system is not fair anymore" 🤪
bc our pm lol
‘Stats Canada released’, not ‘Stats Canada releasing’. How I detest this obsession with the present tense in news reporting. We are not children requiring journalistic jolts-per-minute. Just stop with the silly news fixation with the present tense, when past tense is appropriate to the report.
It is Steven Harper's fault!!!!
😂
He was also a control freak. Canadians got fed up with him , Trudeau came in and here we are.
I blame Harper … and the patriarchy
I think you should blame Diefenbaker, he is more connected to this than Harper
Because of Trudeau and his criminal policies.
Stupid question.... worse yet.... no answer given beyond "there is more poverty". Sheeeeesh. We Canadians subsidize this "news"????
I love how youtube removed my commeny for telling the truth 😅
GREED. It is that simple.
😂 I love sarcasm. LOL
😂😂😂@ The headline
PM Pollieve did this!
Lay off the crack bro
@@EndofDays-7777 You thought I was serious? Lol
Possibly the stupidest most obvious questions i have ever heard a new anchor ask. Ever.
Well indian students need to stop using them
Because grocers are greedy
