"…allow for urban decay…"?!?!?

Who "allowed" for urban decay? Who are you laying that on? "Lefties"?!??! The people you like to call "lefties" are the ones who are fighting urban decay you idiot. You think it's conservatives who are making things better for the average worker? Tell me what Harper did to correct "urban decay" or to improve the lot of the average person. Was Canada more prosperous under Harper? Did standards of living rise? Did quality of life? No and no. Did the 1% get wealthier? Did the middle class shrink? Yes and yes.

You have a very distorted view of the world if you think "lefties" "allowed" "urban decay" to happen. For one thing, I'm not even sure there's a city in Canada to which the term "urban decay" could apply. Which city did you have in mind?I live in Toronto and it's looking pretty good. Has its challenges but I wouldn't call it an urban wasteland.
