A lot is still at the " big map - small hand" stage, but it's a good start. Some lofty goals, such as returning the responsibility for community policing back to the communities. Definitely something to watch. You'll know they've got traction when the LPC starts to focus on them.Party policy platform: Policy | Our Canadian Future

‘We all know that China is not playing by the same rules,’ Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says of plan to shield domestic industries in alignment with US and EU.

Doesn't seem to have read the memo saying "if people say "shit's expensive", it doesn't help telling them "but it's not as expensive as elsewhere." "
And if you believe a lot of the commentariat, even him leaving at this point wouldn't help Team Red enough.
wouldnt change mind unless theres some drastic difference. Who is untainted? They going to fix housing/immigration? Am i supposed to to give them credit for fixing a problem they created?
Some of it is also even with a true knight in shining armour (admittedly harder to find as time goes on), do they have enough time (and money, based on how well bought ads seemed to help Team Blue) to crank up a NEW narrative and an image of "we REALLY aren't Trudeau 3.0, honest" in time for the next election?
Nothing anyone can do for housing is going to mave much impact in time for the next election. Best to leave the furball for the next government.
