Daly told the committee that she was seconded to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) while ArriveCan was being developed. She said she had no authority to make decisions about the contracting process and insisted that her role was largely an administrative one.

Get off your soapbox and consider that myself and hundreds of thousands of people in my generation in this country can't afford to rent our own places because of the insanely inflated cost of housing and food.

This story isn't a shock to me. I think it's a problem, sure, but in the context of our modern world this story seems much more like it's intended as a distraction from the more systemic issues at hand.

Government corruption is the reason you can't afford housing and food.
