Assessing the Trudeau government - everyone should read this before going to vote this October.

For those who may be interested in knowing more, the website where these campaign promises / accomplishments are tracked is publicly available poltext.org
Here's a screenshot of the Trudeau results to-date
versus a screenshot of the Harper results
Couple of things to note - Trudeau made 353 campaign promises and delivered on (or is in the process of delivering on) all but 5.7% whereas Harper made 140 campaign promises and delivered on all but 15%.
One last point - the article notes that not all campaign promises are created equal. I couldn't agree more.

"Trudeau entered the 2015 campaign having made a lot of “transformative” promises ... In contrast, Harper made a lot of “transactional” promises" #cdnpoli #FactsMatter

I am so fucking sick of every conservative politician & every conservative pundit who got the message to “make this Trudeau’s problem”! We all need a bullshit radar because this is full on #Gaslighting
Does this absolve the Liberal govt from responsibility for that has happened? No! They clearly underestimated the risk & overestimated provincial & municipal capabilities to deal with the situation.
But at the end of the day, we need to acknowledge that this was not (is not) ending without federal intervention.

I have no doubt that, like so many, the pandemic was causing a great deal of stress and aggravating mental health issues. #thread #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #RideauHall
But we all need to be clear that, there is NO EXCUSE or rational explanation for what he did - or attempted to do. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #RideauHall
I’m also puzzled by some of the arguments about financial hardship. He may very well have faced financial hardship - many of us do - but consider what we know. #thread #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #RideauHall

In 2015, @CPC_HQ spent a lot of time & $$ telling us Trudeau was #JustNotReady even tho Trudeau was world traveled, grew up steeped in politics, had 2 university degrees, had worked various jobs, including a few yrs as a teacher, & had been an MP for 7 yrs.
This year, @CPC_HQ spent a lot of time & $$ telling us Trudeau is #NotAsAdvertised even tho their own leader spent the last 15 yrs lying about his university degree, his credentials as an insurance "broker" & his work experience prior to politics. And he hid his US citizenship.
Anyone else sensing a trend here?

So my Q is - Why would anyone give their vote to a guy who actively contributed to the above personal attacks while he, himself: took 8 yrs to acquire a BA; has repeatedly lied about his own credentials while engaging in the above attacks;

This is worth sharing again. Parties tend to play on our emotions when vying for our votes but #FactsMatter

The link in the tweet below provides an non-partisan analysis of the Trudeau govt's performance vs it's 2015 campaign promises. #cdnpoli #elxn43
It's also worth noting that the Cdn economy is doing great, with decades low unemployment and wages on the rise. #cdnpoli #FactsMatter #ELXN43

Notwithstanding what the Conservatives tell us, Canada is well-regarded on the world stage.

It's more than a little ironic that @andrewscheer would claim @JustinTrudeau & the Liberals just make stuff up given there's a veritable treasure trove of evidence that it's EXACTLY what he & his party do DAILY. This CANNOT continue to go unchallenged! #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #thread
Just a short while ago, I dissented a 3-tweet thread from his Comms Director that contained multiple falsehoods. #cdnpoli

Here's a parliament hill journo calling out one of your MANY falsehoods. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia
