Why is racism towards indians normalized here in NB

Why is racism towards indians normalized here in NB

Please check the photo attached for something which happened to me personally. I am a permanent resident here and i work hard but still...
Anyway on Facebook theres Deport comments on every post featuring an Indian immigrant.

Instead of cancelling the racist, people encourage him and join in.

People are even laughing at posts meant for condolences to Indian immigrants who died in Canada. What kind of culture is this?

That's someone's precious family member who died. How would you feel if someone laughs at you if your precious child dies godforbid.

Even the animals have more compassion when it comes to their own kind dying.

I stumbled across this book from another post recently that completely changed how I think about food.

We’re so used to fridges, supermarkets, and next day delivery that I honestly never stopped to think about how people actually ate before all that existed. This book is basically a collection of old recipes that were designed to last months or even years without refrigeration. The same kind of food our great grandparents (and great great grandparents) relied on.

What surprised me most wasn’t even the recipes, it was the mindset. Everything was about making food stretch, using what you had, and not relying on systems that could disappear overnight. Reading it made me realize how dependent we are now compared to even a couple generations ago.

I’ve tried a handful of the recipes so far. Some are definitely outside my normal rotation, but a few were genuinely good and oddly satisfying knowing they’d keep without power or fancy storage.

It’s less of a cookbook and more of a little history lesson disguised as one. Made me appreciate how resilient people used to be, especially when it came to food. I wanted to make this post as a bit of a shoutout to the creators for putting it together and the person who shared it here a couple months back (I couldn't find the old post to go back and comment).

Here's the website I bought the cookbook from, it's a pretty niche book so I don't think it's available on any mainstream platforms - survivalsuppers.com

Is Moncton a good base for a weeks vacation?

I'm an upstate New Yorker. My wife and I love Atlantic Canada. Is New Brunswick a nice place for a vacation? And if so is Moncton a good base to explore Fundy, Acadia, etc?

Thanks!

Help me understand.

Why is the government continuing with the Atlantic Immigration Program? Unemployment is up again months on end. Youth unemployment is at unsustainable levels. Housing, schools and hospitals are beyond capacity. The economy is getting worse. People are at a breaking point. It's hurting for the people already here. It's hurting immigrants. Whatever benefits the program was intended for are not working.

Higgs calls for conservative movement to ‘redefine’ itself

He suggests the lack of a definition in New Brunswick ultimately divided the party he led and resulted in his political defeat. --- That’s while seemingly taking a veiled shot at New Brunswick Progressive Conservative leadership contender Daniel Allain, suggesting that a “coup” inside the party worked to replace him – and “is still at it." --- Higgs made the comments on stage in Ottawa at the annual gathering billed as the country’s largest gathering of the conservative movement.

Advice for first time home buyers?

My boyfriend (25M) and I (24F) are first time home buyers and are hoping to buy a house within the next year or so. For 2025 our combined income was $90 100, and we’re looking to buy in the greater SJ area.

Any advice, tips, or just information on the process of becoming a homeowner would be greatly appreciated. Thank you❤️

This is particular relevant to NB. Lots of drivers in the province.

Every economist should be banned from saying "labor shortage" unless wages have doubled in the industry they are talking about.

Airports are canceling flights and it's definitely totally forsure not because of the cost of jet fuel, pinky promise.

I know it's a dogshit TJ news article but this is exactly the kind of stuff people need to get active about.

Airlines are canceling flights for "unplanned maintenance" and other excuses when it's an open secret they're doing so because of the cost of fuel. They were admitting this until lawyers started telling passengers that an airline can't cancel because a flight isn't profitable if the tickets are already sold.

This sets an awful precedent where a company can cancel or modify a service even after a contract has entered into if that service is no longer profitable or profitable enough for them.

I emailed my federal rep this morning and I'll share my email here if anyone wants to copy and paste it and email their rep as well.

Good Morning,

This morning I read an article about flights being canceled across New Brunswick with no clear reason given for the cancelations however fuel costs have been cited as making an impact on the decision.

Inaction on this issue from our Government is setting the precedent that profits are more important than people. If the Government allows airlines to cancel flights on short notice because they're no longer profitable it shows Canadians that the current consumer protections laws are not strong enough.

Canadians need stronger consumer protection laws. The Government needs to show Canadians they are working for them, not the shareholders of these companies.

Thank you,

Don't come at me with the left vs right nonsense.

This is up vs down.

I made this cute little guy!

I'm making a video-game about Birdwatching in Atlantic Canada, and just had to make this adorable little plover. What do you think?

I want to be careful of self-promotion, but since I've had a number of people asking me, the game is >Look to the Birds!<
