So then where are people supposed to sleep when nothing else is available, how can it possibly be a crime to give yourself shelter and sleep?

Well, nice to see my night terror demon has been kicking around more than a century.

Tangible? Like a list or something? Would it even help because my experience is making a list for someone is just inviting an annoying, ten mile long part by part argument that I have no interest in being part of.

But anyway, I’m happy with the child care funding, cannabis legalization, water boil advisory work, pro LGBT stance, standing up for women in NB and PEI for healthcare access, the carbon rebate, the Greener homes grant, the EV rebate, the pension plan changes, the Covid response, lower middle tax brackets and higher taxes at the highest brackets (plus a new bracket at the top), independent senators, and election act changes to name a few things that I personally am happy with.

Edit: (how could I forget getting rid of student loan interest and providing long generous repayment terms)

I have to say, I like Trudeau and think the Liberals have done a good job governing, passing many laws and policies I support and generally making my life better.

But on the other hand at the very least they have a problem communicating. I have family who drive a PHEV they had subsidized, send two kids to $10 a day daycare at a rural daycare center the feds funded to open, gladly collecting the child benefit while working a job that has seen a boom due to government policy. But because they basically absorb anything they see repeated enough on Facebook as true, they’re ready to see Trudeau go for… vague reasons? But their conviction is as strong as their reasons are nebulous.

A roll back to Harper era childcare policies would financially ruin them, but how can I argue against skeleton middle fingers and Fuck Trudeau stickers?

Well that is going to be bad for everyone. Looks like we’re headed back to science denial, tax credits for the rich, program cancellations for the poor, a weak fed that ignores the marginalized, bitcoin for some reason, deregulation, attacks on democracy, and just a general attitude of government by bumper sticker skeleton middle finger.

I remember when PP was in government, they weren’t good days, but I guess Trudeau has been in for so long that the list of true and imagined grievances is going to sink him and the rest of us with him.

Ashamed to say it took two viewings to notice and get this.
