Child Poverty in Canada

A video about child poverty in Canada. Uses information from the 2007 child report card and uses the song All these things that I've Done, by the killers. This is a school project, but enjoy it anyway.

Well, if you do look at the stats, you'll note that in general a Caucasian is more likely to get a job over a minority even if they both have the same skills. It is their kids that suffer...

Loved it.

The images and the music just flowed together really well.

Hope to see more work from you. =]

My 16 year old son has lost 25 lbs in weight in the last year., think about it, a teenager should be gaining weight, not losing it. We don't have enough money to pay for rent, food AND bills.

Don't look to the government for help because they would rather spend the money on war.

Fuck the Canadian government.

@dngdwn While I don't disagree with your statement, I'd like to point out that a larger cause for their suffering is the fact that Caucasians are having less children, while minorities pump out one after the other without a second thought to the child's basic needs.

@Dave308439 Raising minimum wage. It's already over ten bucks here in Ontario. The whole tax more to spread the wealth is totally socialist. Don't get me wrong, I like Canada's mixed market. A little bit of capitalism, a little bit of socialism. It's good.

@burnchicken Uum... H1N1 is INFLUENZA. It's the H1N1 FLU shot. Flu shots do not prevent cold; in fact, there is nothing you can do to prevent yourself from catching a cold except for washing your hands a lot, not sharing anything with spit on it with anyone else (cups, toothbrushes, silverware, etc.) and trying not to let people sneeze on you. Duh.

One way to help the kids is to eliminate tobacco and alcohol tax since many of these children come from homes that have parents that smoke and drink, if the booze and smokes were dirt cheap maybe there might be some money left over for the kids from the welfare cheques. Also get rid of the GST and start taxing the rich and corporations where the real money is. Stop shipping out our resources and start manufacturing products again.

Im willing to bet my life that if you were in the US some tea party people and republicans would have been screaming socialist and frothing at the mouth for this video.

:32 and 1:40 Actually, I read in one of the newspapers here that in Canada 'ethnic' women, on average, earn %4 MORE than white women.

The pig flu was a false pandemic. It was an excuse to line the drug companys' pockets. The government does not care about people getting the flu, they seem to care more about making people sick from the shot. Many people had miscarriages after getting the swine flu vaccine. None of what they do makes sense to rational people.

Look how much money the government has wasted on the H1N1 shit.

I got the shot and it did not prevent me from having a cold. IMHO, it is just a waste of money.
