Crazy how the only one of these airing criticism that says the budget isn't doing enough is the publicly owned one.

What exactly has Trudeau done wrong? I keep seeing comments like this but I can't recall anything.
The better question may be, what has he done right?
That's not to say it's a right/wrong binary, but rather: What has he made better? How has he improved the lives of people living here?
His biggest accomplishment has really been not being Stephen Harper, Andrew Scheer, or Erin O'Toole. And the biggest reason to vote Liberal in the next election is him not being Pierre Poilievre.
Weed, dental care, capital gain tax, carbon tax, decent COVID response (by western standards)
Can't say much more because I wasn't paying attention to canpoli 3y ago
The NDP got dental care through. The Liberals delayed enacting it significantly, and we've ended up with unnecessary needs assessments.
But I'll grant you the rest.
I guess. But when assessing the PM tenure, I'm more concerned whether the political landscape was good enough to pass good legislation or not, regardless of who proposes/pushes the most for it. Otherwise I'd end up just assigning almost everything good the Liberals did right as an NDP win (which may be fair but it's not useful when discussing PMs).
But I see the Liberals as important articulators the NDP can only negotiate with when the Liberals leadership has the social capital to side with progressives. I think they did a good job managing the average Canadian voter-base for a decade, before the pendulum swing inevitably going back to retrogrades.
