Yes. Trudeau was tickling up against the NDP there, and probably had little problem passing their policies. Carney is a different beast. He's passionate about the environment and wants the government in on homebuilding, but he's also a techbro and seems to want trickledown-type policies regarding the rich.
The thing is, PP is so far off to the right there's still a ton of headroom in between.
LOL OMG... he gutted all environmental portfolio we had, sad and weak as it was anyway
This we agree with but I think Canadians deserve better than "slightly less than the worst possible PM"
Right? This isn’t team sports…the conservatives losing is good…but the liberals winning isn’t.
We have to pay attention to what’s actually going on…which has been a continuous slide to the right since…and this is going to enrage Liberals…but since Mulroney who was the last Prime Minister (as abysmal as he was for his trade deals and social policy etc) who actually cared about using taxation as a tool to pay for things: like it or not the GST was good for Canada (broadly speaking, I would have much preferred the existing mechanisms been used, rather than an overlay added that was a pretext for the removal of corporate and luxury taxes).
“Had little problem passing their policies”? That ridiculous. We had a snap election because he didn’t want to pass their policies…got dragged kicking and screaming into watered down versions…and eventually had his government prematurely removed because he wouldn’t.
Carney is not passionate about the environment. He literally passed a bill that allows the private sector to ignore environmental regulation so they could build a pipeline, and he cancelled most of Trdueau’s environmental policy.
You don’t seem to understand they Carney is occupying the space Pollieve used to occupy, which forced Pierre to have even more extreme policy, and forced the NDP into oblivion because they abandoned their voters and tried to occupy the old Liberal space.
