In this episode of Maple Serpent Mayhem, I discuss why we should care if people are sending their money back to their home countries. I talk about why this is a bad thing, and why we need to care about it.
00:01:33.260And they actually brought up a term that I don't think we hear enough, or maybe we don't understand it enough in Canada.
00:01:39.820And that term, hold on, I'm fixing my mic here, is remittance.
00:01:46.000For posterity, a remittance is money sent from, you know, one country to another, or I guess in business cases, one business to another.
00:01:54.180But in the context of this video, it is speaking sent from one country to another.
00:01:59.660Now, that is a surface level explanation, and in Canada, personal remittances are actually defined into two distinct balance of payment components, they call it, or BOP.
00:02:11.940There's all this stuff, like when I was doing this research, there's all these fancy fucking terms, and I swear to God, it's all just fluff, just to confuse people to shit, so that they don't want to look into this kind of stuff, which is typical for the government, right?
00:02:25.000So, the two different components are personal transfers, which this compromises all current transfers, whether in cash or in kind, made by resident households to non-residents.
00:02:38.000So, basically, this is people who are residents of Canada, not necessarily Canadian citizens, who are sending money back home, right?
00:02:48.400So, these transfers reflect the long-term structural support mechanisms maintained by Canada's established diaspora population.
00:02:57.660Remember that, because this is all tied in to the rest of the video, and why immigration continues to be so high.
00:03:04.640So, the official definition that I just gave you from my research is very wordy and confusing, but basically, it can be summed up as, you know, paper Canadians or temporary Canadians sending back a significant portion of their income, Canadian income, earned through the slave labor or whatever they're doing, or sometimes it's even grifted through social assistance.
00:03:27.760And they take a large proportion of that money, or a large amount of money, or a large amount of money, and they send it back to their country of origin.
00:03:35.500So, you're probably asking, Posty, why should we care if they're sending back their money back to their home?
00:03:44.840Now, simply put, the reason why we should care, amongst other things, I'm going to discuss in a little bit, but it takes away from the Canadian economy.
00:03:53.340So, that's less money that gets spent on Canadian goods and services that would go back into the economy.
00:03:59.780That's less money that's spent on supporting Canadian businesses or local businesses.
00:04:03.940Yet, the money is coming out of the Canadian economy.
00:04:08.560So, because they're working in Canada for a company that is, you know, I guess, locally owned, you would think, or even if it's a chain, it doesn't matter.
00:04:16.820That money is coming from the Canadian, the Canadian economy, rather.
00:04:21.920So, it's not getting put back into the Canadian economy, is basically how it works.
00:06:56.260So, to situate this figure with the global remittance landscape, because it does happen in other countries too,
00:07:02.340and namely the U.S., the amount is converted using an estimated 2024 average exchange rate of the Canadian dollar was 135 at the time.
00:07:11.340It's probably a lot worse than that now.
00:07:13.060So, this estimates, based on that, about $22.636 billion U.S. is leaving the country of Canada on remittances and going to other countries.
00:07:24.580So, according to the study that I pulled, or one of the studies, Canada maintains a persistent and substantial structural imbalance
00:07:35.820in its international flow of personal remittances, meaning they are sending more than receiving,
00:07:42.300which we all know, as if that wasn't obvious to most of us.
00:07:45.360This comparison also confirms that Canada is a significant net remittance source country,
00:17:44.280This is the most recent data that they had.
00:17:47.320So this indicates a pervasive inability to translate population growth into shared prosperity.
00:17:53.000Now, in my opinion, this would be because of the amount of people you're bringing in
00:17:58.280and the type of people you're bringing in, the quality, right?
00:18:02.140Because the majority of the people that you're bringing in, they are going to work for their,
00:18:07.660you know, uncle, Jag Preet Singh or Jags Meat Singh or whatever, who owns multiple Tim Hortons.
00:18:14.080And they're going to work at Tim Hortons for, you know, minimum wage on the books anyways.
00:18:18.800And who knows what else, what they'll really be getting paid and how many hours they'll be working.
00:18:22.880So that's not really sharing any prosperity with the rest of the country because half of that money
00:18:29.960or a good portion of that money is going back to India to keep them afloat.
00:18:33.760The extraordinary population increase between 2022 and 2024 was overwhelmingly driven by non-permanent residents or NPRs.
00:18:44.260I'd like to call them NPCs, I'd like to call them NPCs, but they're NPRs who accounted for 70% of the total population growth during this period.
00:18:56.020Historically, NPRs only compromised of 2 to 3% of the total Canadian population.
00:19:01.860But this figure reached a peak of 7.6% during the last quarter of 2024.
00:19:10.080The composition of this temporary inflow has critical economic implications, obviously.
00:19:20.700Of the 1.4 million new NPRs arriving during this period, approximately 400,000 came on a student visa.
00:19:30.280And that's another story I'm going to tell for another day about how they're now nailing people with fake diplomas.
00:19:34.780I actually was involved in something, not involved, but discovered something similar in one of my other jobs that I had before with false diplomas.
00:19:46.440I think in Ottawa there is some people being charged for having false PSW diplomas.
00:19:51.500And PSWs, as a side note, are personal support workers who are taking care of our elderly people.
00:19:56.200So, yeah, 400,000 entered on likely fake student permits or diploma mill college permits.
00:20:06.660And a further 300,000 to 400,000 found employment concentrated in the lower wage sectors such as food services, Tim Hortons, accommodation, no-tel motels, retail and administrative roles.
00:20:19.280And, again, this is all nepotistic stuff.
00:20:21.480So, like, you have an Indian manager that gets into a company and they start hiring all Indian staff, whether that's, like, at a corporate company or wherever it is.
00:21:38.520The dominance of NPRs in recent growth means the labour supply shock has been heavily weighted towards temporary lower skilled functions.
00:21:49.080The reliance on temporary low cost labour complicates the high unemployment context, indicating that the labour market issue is not purely cyclical slack, but also a structural reliance on readily available workers.
00:22:03.340Basically saying they don't want to, you know, have to deal with anything like, I don't know, I mean, you'd still have to train, I guess, an Indian worker, probably you would think you'd have to train them more.
00:22:12.280But maybe that's why the quality of service has gone down so bad.
00:22:28.660It's productivity enhancing capital investments could mean hiring a competent white person to do the work and paying what the appropriate wages would be.
00:22:40.380Anything that improves efficiency or output.
00:22:45.520This firm preference for easily accessible lower cost input over long term capital formation risks locking Canada into a trajectory of sluggish productivity growth.
00:22:55.740We've already hit there, directly undermining the long term wage and living standard improvements that well managed immigration should otherwise generate.
00:23:16.840So in the 90s, and even up until probably 2010, it was not really that big of an issue was not a noticeable issue.
00:23:24.500And it didn't really affect my, you know, life in any way other than, you know, just having a dislike.
00:23:32.460But other than that, it didn't really affect my life in any way.
00:23:36.280When inexpensive labour is readily available, businesses often find it easier and more profitable.
00:23:41.520That's the one ding, ding, ding, more profitable in the short term to absorb new workers rather than undertaking costly productivity enhancing investments to technology, machinery or automation.
00:23:54.880I like how they put this in here, but they don't put human capital because they want you to think that all human capital is worth the same, but it's not.
00:24:02.240This preference for low cost labour input over long term capital formation structurally impedes the recovery of the capital to labour ratio, trapping Canada in a low productivity growth trajectory, making the eventual recovery of real wages and living standards dependent on policies that aggressively encourage business investment.
00:24:22.280How you would aggressively encourage business investment, maybe you should use some of the tactics that you aggressively encouraged us to get poisoned with the vax, maybe you should try that, maybe you should tell them that they will be fined or that if they don't hire, you know, 95% Canadian people that you know, there'll be some sort of repercussion for that.
00:24:45.220You know, I mean, I mean, it worked for all the smooth brains and during the convid scam.
00:24:55.400The fact is, immigrants, despite taking over many industries in Canada, and using their nepotistic hiring practices, you know, they face a slightly higher unemployment rate than Canadians, according to this source.
00:25:09.200But like I said, in my opinion, if this was the case, then why are we bringing in people who will immediately need to rely on the social welfare system because their unemployment for that person is so high?
00:25:35.740The housing crisis is actually severely aggravated by the critical structural disconnect, because they're telling us that they're going to build all these homes, like, you know, Mark Carney and whoever the fuck it was, saying, you know, a million homes and whatever the fuck the word or phrase he was using to try to convince us that he's actually going to do something.
00:25:59.680High immigration drives the demand, but the domestic system struggles to ramp up the supply.
00:26:05.740Obviously, and this is partially due by the labor market, because they're telling us that they need highly skilled immigrants to come in and do this.
00:26:13.620But the reality is they're getting low skilled immigrants.
00:26:16.400And these immigrants can't integrate into the trade and technical jobs.
00:26:27.480We're still dependent on the, you know, some of the older people that have been doing it for many years.
00:26:32.040A lot of young, even, I mean, some, you know, younger kids or Gen Zs are getting into that.
00:26:38.000But it's been the last 40 years, and this is one of my biggest pet peeves, I guess, is like for the last 40 years, 30 years or whatever, they've been pushing the fact that if you don't have this paper degree from a university, that you're really going to be a failure in life.
00:26:53.540And the truth is, is that these people, we need people in construction, we need people in the trades and stuff like that.
00:27:02.200Because if you had any forethought, you would think that, you know, people are going to age, right?
00:27:08.040And so we need to keep people replenishing the supply of these people.
00:27:12.620Somehow, through their globalist, global homo thinking, the government thought that they could just bring in people who can't even maintain a society on their own, in their own country, here, and they would be able to build first world housing and stuff like that.
00:27:28.840So I'm not sure where that logic come from.
00:27:30.840I'm sure they paid for a consultant to tell them that.
00:27:35.400So the fact that they can't officially integrate, it creates an even bigger shortage and a higher demand, right?
00:27:42.640Because they're, you know, again, being brought in saying that they're going to be here to help build the homes that they're going to occupy, but the reality is they ain't building shit.
00:27:52.760This has complicated the federal government's goal of unlocking 3.87 million new homes by 2031.
00:28:00.600So I listed off many reasons why we should care about remittances.
00:28:08.820The countries receiving the remittance largely depends on it for their GDP.
00:28:13.200And they work out backroom deals with, you know, the politicians to increase the immigration and therefore increase the remittances.
00:28:19.300So it's basically like an international money laundering of taxpayer dollars, if you want to think about it.
00:28:24.100And this is why they don't care about the fact that most Canadians at least want a pause on immigration.
00:28:29.500They're in bed with big businesses like Amazon, Tim Hortons, Walmart, all this other crap, and leaders from other nations, you know, along with the global Homo WEF, One World No Borders plan.
00:28:44.560Finally, I wanted to see if there has been any research on the negative social and community effects of importing millions of culturally and morally incompetent people on the native population.
00:29:01.560We understand why they're done so that the government can support other countries without looking like they're supporting other countries.
00:29:09.140And this is why they continue to, you know, import the incompatible people here, because it's just a body.
00:29:15.680It's just somebody who is going to be put on a chart added to the GDP and help them borrow more money that they're going to give to other countries.
00:29:22.340So it's just like a fucking Ponzi scheme and whatever you want to call it.
00:29:26.000But I also thought, like, has anybody done any studies?
00:29:28.520Because I come from, you know, that stupid gay background of social work or social services, sociology, whatever you want to call it.
00:29:36.620So I am interested in collective behavior of a community and of a group.
00:29:42.020So I wanted to see if there was any studies done in Canada specifically on what the effects are of importing millions of people that are extremely incompatible, have an extremely different religion, and honestly, quite a difference in IQ level.
00:30:00.040Right now, most of the studies I did find that were cuckified, meaning that they, you know, are dancing around a real problem, or they negate all the research by saying, however, immigration is a very important aspect to Canada, blah, blah, blah.
00:30:14.460But the research does confirm that the social dimension of ideological differences, rather, often creates a more significant barrier to social cohesion and triggers greater prejudice than differences in economic ideology alone.
00:30:31.020This suggests that policy frameworks focus predominantly on economic integration, such as employment and housing initiatives, which is all that the government is focusing on right now, and they're not even really focusing on that, will inevitably fall short of addressing the core source of native resistance, which is deeply rooted in cultural and symbolic concerns.
00:30:52.460The symbolic nature of this conflict necessitates management strategies that are political and cultural rather than purely fiscal.
00:30:58.500I mean, the best management strategy you could be is to just send everybody back, right, and get back to a Christian society, white Christian society that Canada was built on.
00:31:10.020Extensive sociological research has demonstrated that intra-neighborhood cohesion tends to be lower in more diverse communities, a finding so consistent, and has been deemed an empirical regularity.
00:31:22.100Notice that they don't mention why there would be, what do you want to call it, how there would be less trust in a more diverse community.
00:31:32.440What part of the diversity is causing people to be less trustworthy?
00:31:38.680When faced with perceived, and they say perceived, but perception is based on experiences.
00:31:45.240So this is basically a don't call us racist card that they just threw in there as a word.
00:31:50.740But when faced with perceived liabilities associated with integrated neighborhoods, such as deterioration, crime, or declining property values, the native population may respond through social withdrawal.
00:32:02.720At higher levels of diversity, this withdrawal coupled with flight or avoidance can significantly disrupt neighborhood cohesion.
00:32:10.020So this is a fancy way to say that there is white flight, and then when the white flight happens, the communities go to shit.
00:32:17.280Because there's nobody left that cares about the community, that's going to maintain the beauty of the community, maintain the social things of the community.
00:33:03.340You can have a democracy in probably, you know, Japan or China where like 99% of the people are culturally homogenous.
00:33:11.500But in countries in the West, it's impossible because whoever gets into power is going to ultimately look at their...
00:33:17.840First, they're going to look at their, you know, group preferences, their in-group preferences first, before they look at the society as a whole.
00:33:24.760The core philosophical neutrality of liberalism dictates that while rights and opportunities should be justly distributed,
00:33:35.280the government generally remains neutral on how people use their liberty to choose different values,
00:33:40.940potentially resulting in inequality of outcome.
00:33:43.560This is another fallacy or I don't know what you would call it, but like you can't have equality in outcomes.
00:35:18.520And they, for the longest time, they pushed that.
00:35:22.000Now, I don't know what's happened now because you now have Dearborn, Michigan taken over by muzzies and the call to prayer being played five times.
00:35:29.580So obviously that's not a thing anymore.
00:35:32.960So basically what that says is that are you, will the society tolerate it or will they force assimilation?
00:35:39.700No society in recent times or current times in the West has forced any kind of assimilation.
00:35:46.740So that, I don't know, it's almost like a moot point.
00:35:49.100Furthermore, research indicates that differences in cultural traits and values, including social trust introduced by immigrant groups, tend to persist into the third generation and beyond.
00:36:01.560This persistence is observable even among descendants of historically similar immigrant groups in the U.S.
00:36:07.480So they're talking here about German-Americans versus Irish-Americans, suggesting that key aspects of civic culture and social behavior leave deep, long-lasting ideological footprints on the host society.
00:36:18.260If differences persist among relatively similar groups, it is highly probable that today's ideological diverse immigrants will also permanently alter the host culture over the long term.
00:36:30.040Case in point, what I just said about Dearborn, Michigan, right?
00:36:34.140When you bring in enough people, they're not going to assimilate to that.
00:36:39.020They're going to bring their religion there.
00:36:40.660So basically, Dearborn, Michigan has been turned into, you know, the Western Mecca, I guess you could say, of Islam.
00:36:49.920And the Minnesota, the closest state, I would think, ideologically to Canadians as far as culture, they used to be, you know, it was a hockey culture, cold winters, outdoor sports,
00:37:03.160all that kind of stuff has now been taken over by Somalians.
00:37:06.240So they're in the government, they're doing all that stuff.
00:37:09.180And pretty soon, I believe Somalis are also Islamic, I could be wrong.
00:37:16.280It's that that's going to be the predominant religion there, there will be no free speech there, you will be under Sharia law.
00:37:22.220And you see these, these clips of people saying it, like, that's their intention, right?
00:37:26.540So there is no assimilation, definitely not.
00:37:29.980And there is no, you know, kind of kumbaya singing together, we're all going to get along.
00:37:35.480You cannot have vastly different ideological or religious opinions of people like living together,
00:37:43.180because it leaves an imprint on the country, the host culture over the long term.
00:37:48.620So in summary, in summary, immigration from the third world is a net negative on Canada,
00:37:58.400not that I need to tell you guys that we're all in this together, we all know, there is no net positive.
00:38:04.620However, they will keep using superlatives and platitudes to make us believe that, you know, we are racist, if we dare question it.
00:38:12.080But the mass immigration is unnecessary, exploitative, lowering the unemployment, or sorry, lowering the employment wages,
00:38:20.260raising the unemployment rates, increasing chances of homelessness due to lack of housing supply,
00:38:26.040straining our once, and it was once great, healthcare system to the breaking point,
00:38:31.260changing our laws that are that to things that are ideologically opposition to what we believe.
00:38:37.160And it's changing our freedoms to more closely align with theirs.
00:38:41.300And, to top it all off, they're committing violent crime at record rates.
00:38:46.420So what do we get for all this enrichment?
