FOREIGN PROBLEMS ARE JUST THAT FOREIGN

By Joe Ingino Editor/Publisher “I live a dream in a nightmare world” Always Remember That The cosmic blueprint of your life was written in code across the sky at the moment you were born. Decode Your Life By Living It Without Regret or Sorrow. - ONE DAY AT A TIME - Ceremonies, events and protests WERE held across Canada to mark the anniversary of a Hamas attack on Israel that triggered the ongoing war in Gaza. The Oct. 7, 2023 attack killed more than 1,200 Israelis, while another 250 are being held captive. Canada has sent billions to Ukraine and other nations to fight political foreign wars. Should Canada be supporting foreign wars? Is this what Canadian taxpayers pay such high taxes for? The use of our resources to fund foreign conflict is wrong. The militization of our Canadian population to support a foreign cause is wrong. Our children are being used by foreign entities to protest foreign issues that we as Canadians are not fully educated or briefed on. The recent ceremonies and protests should be something personal for those directly affected by the international conflict. Canadians should not be drawn in and create a domestic environment to simulate that of foreign states. Now don’t get me wrong. Human suffering is a horrible thing any place in the world. We as responsible members of the global village. Should do all we can to combat human suffering at all levels. To extend assistance and humanitarian aid is and should be the only right thing to do. But only if we/our people are not suffering. As sending foreign aid as a political badge of support is nothing short of hypocritical. Canada is facing the worst national war in the history of Canada. Our red, and white blooded Canadians are suffering by the millions. People living without the ability to save money. Afford the purchase of a new home. Many of us are living in cars, family, unregulated rental properties. Houses that are turned into illegal rooming houses. At times with as many as five families living in one home. Some live in tents, along ravines, open fields... Where is the domestic aid for our people suffering. Federal government funds go to lower tier municipalities that filter to band aid solutions. Funds released end up in coffers for political interests and or agendas. I call for a national emergency plan to be implemented much like during war time. Municipality by municipality create centers for assistance. Create encampments for those without shelter. Create direct Federal government control of emergency for housing development for the poor. Anyone caught violating or abusing the system to face severe penalties. We need to address the White Elephant sitting on our head. We need to identify the real human suffering need. We need to create centers for those in need of mental health. We need addiction centers not ‘safe injection sites’. We need to treat the White Elephant in the room as a serious threat to our national security. We need solid action as that we extend to foreign nations to relieve the pain and suffering abroad. Act now. The threat is real. The suffering is all around us.
