can you provide some details here? vancouver has a very high standard of living.
so i'm guessing when you say below some third world countries.... you must be comparing a homeless person in vancouver to an average person in the third world? that doesn't make sense
i definitely agree that being homeless and having hiv is pretty shitty, but anytime you compare canada to
some third world countries you're talking out of yr ass. i'm not even from a third world country and i've seen plenty of people who would do anything to live as well as a far below-average person in canada (i'm saying 'i've seen' if you take out the actual observation part, i'm assuming the majority of the world population falls into that category)
it seems really sensationalist to me, can you point me to a country where the homeless live well? if no then i don't really see it as canada being shittier than anywhere else, although this particular country at least has the resources to fix those problems, assuming rich pricks ever decide it's worth it, in the third world they can't realistically fix any of their problems, because they're caused mostly by foreign exploitation, and because nato would free the fuck out of them if there was any whimper in the government of perhaps telling the world bank to fuck off
