Canada's population is about half urban, half rural and the cities are spread quite far apart with many smaller and clean support communities between.
The Welfare communities you must refer to are some of the Arctic/Indian villages, as well as Churchill, Hudson Bay towns with very little economic stability. And yes, Canadian Socialism is completely in control of the population in these dependent/recipient based economies.
I may have jumped the shark by saying that welfare funds are paid back to the government to some who need it, because this is information I gathered from some Canadian friends I have in Manitoba. Please excuse my error if I am wrong here and I would appreciate the correct information If you are able. Thanks FRiend.
Very good points there. I didn’t include any mention of “welfare communities” in my post, so I’m guessing you were referring to another post on this thread. Your points about parts of Canada with a welfare culture are good, too. I would suggest that the entire region of the Maritime Provinces is heavily dependent on government support — and that includes both Canadian and aboriginal areas.
Not really, they are everywhere. Several here in Ottawa alone. Vanier, Bayshore, and City View for example. I personally have a cousin who has been on/off welfare all his life, and has around 5 kids, who all have kids, living the same way. It makes me sick. They were living in Southern Ontario, but get this.....moved to Sudbury because the payments were higher there.
