    But Trudeau legalized weed! That was the only promise he fulfilled. I wish he did the whole election reform stuff but we can get high after we vote!

      He also started us on the $10 a day daycare. It’s not universal yet but that’s still huge for tens of thousands of families.

          Like I said, it’s not universal yet but it’s still been huge for tens of thousands of parents.

          Edit: Sorry, that was brusque. I just think starting a transformative national daycare program that looks solid however nascent, is pretty impressive. Between a pandemic, record inflation, land war in europe AND starting a transformative new dental health program, I personally am okay with solid beginnings for now. In ten years, if these programs hold and expand properly, I might find myself impressed with Trudeau’s legacy.

      Indeed, cannabis legalization is amongst the best things a government has ever done for its citizens.

      In the 1979 election, Joe Clark promised to make mortgage payments tax deductable (or a tax credit type of thing.)
      Sadly, his government only lasted about 8 months…
