Speaking of Canadians, Cuba has tourist resorts that provide top notch food et al for tourists, while the Cuban citizen is starving or working as a slave to the tourists. And, surprise, Canada supplies the most tourist visiting Cuba:

Cuba claims one million tourists in first four months of 2023, half of them Canadian

https://www.periodicocubano.com/cuba-recibe-un-millon-de-turistas-en-2023-cifra-alejada-de-la-meta-gubernamental/

Translated excerpt with translator’s comments:

As ever, Canadian tourists have shown great enthusiasm for funding the repressive machinery of Castro, Inc. at a much higher rate than citizens of any other nation on earth.

Way to go, Canada. Keep ’em coming. Every penny you spend in Cuba goes into the pockets of the military junta that rules the island.

Keep apartheid alive! Superior beings deserve to enjoy their superiority. Never mind the fact that most Cubans would love to flee from the island. Never mind the shortages, repression, and destitution of the natives. They are there to serve you and affirm your superiority.

.....Canada continues to be the main supplier of tourists to Cuba, being responsible for almost half of the visitors, which shows a dangerous dependence on that market. However, the official figures published so far show that only 80% of the Canadians who traveled in the same stage of 2019, the year prior to the pandemic, have arrived in Cuba.

********

The translators comments are biting but they describe how liberal Canadians, Europeans and Americans view the situation in Cuba. It should be called the liberal world view.

Bill Barr was a sloppy, lethargic mess as the Attorney General. He was lazy as hell, and petrified of the Radical Left Democrats, & the fact that they were going to impeach him. I wish they had, which would have meant that he was doing his job, which he wasn’t. Bad on Election Fraud & just about everything else he touched, Sloppy Bill is now a human sound bite, along with Karl Rove, Wacky Peggy “I hate Reagan” Noonan, & Paul Ryan, for Rupert Murdoch & his ANTI-TRUMP (just like 2016!) WSJ, Plus!

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/110339638682914515

Rupert Murdoch, “Worst Republican Speaker ever” Paul Ryan, RINO KARL ROVE, The Wall Street Globalist Journal, and the rapidly disintegrating FoxNews, have gone all out, over the last 3 months, pushing and promoting Ron DeSanctimonious, a man who, without the help and Endorsement of President Donald J. Trump, would now be working at a McDonalds or, at a minimum, be far away from Tallahassee. Anyway, all of this RINO/GLOBALIST push from Election Undenier Murdoch has crushed DeSanctus in the Polls!

It’s an embarrassment to Canadians who understand what’s really going on in the world. I know people who’ve gone to Cuba for a holiday and I always ask “How could you do that?” The response I get most often is “I’m happy to be improving their economy and the life of Cubans who have work because I go to their country.” My reply is always “But at what cost?” They just blink at me like I have two heads. The woman I know who was there a month ago gave the housekeeper a gratuity of $25 US for a whole week (!) of service and the woman cried and held her hand saying “Thank you, Thank you. Thank you.” The poverty they live in must be crushing. But at least they all have a low-cost rice cooker.

Historically Castro inc. took over 90% of the revenue while business owners got the rest and the citizens what tips and meager pay they could get. Cuba is still a commie haven with more jails and tortured prisoners than food. The place is still ruled with the force of a rifle and lots of govt. goons.

A lot like what is being set up here before long if Trump does not reappear and soon.
