I’m pretty far left and I agree with that statement. They’ve done a lot of positive things. The bar is on the floor of course because of the conservative government that came before them. And there’s a lot more they could have done. But still, they’ve generally done positive things.
I really can’t figure how someone looking at housing and think the Liberals did a good job.
No matter how bad the Conservatives were or will be doesn’t mean the Liberals are good. What policies did the Liberals have that would have been better than the general ones from left parties NDP and Green.

Not what’s being said. I prefer the NDP in general, but the Liberals have done small versions of a lot of the policies I would have wanted from the NDP. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. The Liberals did some good stuff. They could have done a ton more. But their changes have generally been baby steps in the right direction.
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 wouldn’t trade the alternative approaches to those for backtracking or alternate approaches to the things I listed. Especially considering one needs a constitutional amendment to be binding and one is a provincial responsibility.

You think the Conservatives are going to FIX housing?
This is a embarrassing level of reading comprehension.

How is this:
The same as this:
How is it even a discussion that the Liberals did a “good” job. Can anyone actually provide anything tangible for this?

Housing, lying about voting reform, immigrations, 34 Billion dollar pipeline.
The senate should be elected.
