      The dude has been plagued by scandals for the past decade. It’s honestly shocking that he managed to last this long. I think he’s just been riding the “I’m not Trump” wave for a long time.

        Decade? 🤔

        Not quite. He fucked us with one promise first round (electoral reform) but otherwise he was mostly ok for a few years. The last 4 have been pretty shitty tho.

          Eh, I’d have voted for him again over Singh or PPboi but between the blackface thing, the SNC affair, etc. he’s definitely had his fair share of indirectly political scandals over basically his entire tenure.

          He didn’t do everything he promised, played some net-zero impact political games but also accomplished some meaningfully positive things (childcare, forced rezoning, carbon tax, etc.) that people seem to totally ignore. My only meaningful complaint with him is the electoral reform and the lack of antitrust action, but I otherwise think he did “fine” over his tenure.

    To my knowledge there have been people here on Lemmy stating that it would be best if he stepped down. Oh gentle Canadian neighbors:

    Whaaat is happening up there, my dudes?

      We just had the worst decade of governing our country ever had and we are spiralling out of control in debt, cost of living and hope. It’s amazing how much damage one man can do in a decade.

        Yeah that’s centrist-conservative degradation. We’ve been experiencing that in the United States since the mid-70s. Just wait until they begin deleting your social programs like they have been doing here.
