text: If you live in Canada and can afford $29 a month for a newspaper subscription, your life is far better than the majority of impoverished people in this world. I count myself among the privileged to be living in this country and to have the life I do. The difference between you and I is that I can still show empathy towards the human struggle. You make no mention of the other side of the equation - all of those business owners and corporations that were only too happy to exploit these people as source of cheap labour, many of whom were treated unfairly and then had the threat of deportation held over their heads. Now lives will be uprooted and families will be separated. But, as long as you're happy.
