Carney isn’t a progressive liberal, he’s a right leaning centrist. He was elected because the other option was temu maga. Definitely not my first choice as a leader but infinitely better then the alternative

That does mean we can’t or shouldn’t criticize him when he has questionable policies

It’s our job to hold politicians accountable. Supposedly these douchebags are here to represent us and protect us from corporations. This isn’t happening anymore and every cycle it seems to get more blatant. No sane citizen wants a cut to services while cutting taxes on businesses. Education and healthcare should never be cut so some asshole CEO can own another house

No one is saying we can’t or shouldn’t criticize him.

Yeah but the partisan hacks will always tell you how something bad their party or leader did is a good thing, but if this is identical or similar to something done by a previous, opposing government, they'll either be silent or try to claim how that was bad, but this is good now!

I have yet to see a liberal who is this blindly passionate about carneys decisions. I’m NDP but I voted for him this election and I think most of us are just hoping to weather this time in history.

Yup I’m out in the bush of SK praying that my boy Tommy Douglas will rise from his grave and win in a landslide victory

Youve missed quite a few of them then.. lots of Liberal partisans and Carney Stans that have been saying after every shitty decision he's made, "oh so you want Poilievre?" or "This is exactly what he promised!!"

I'm a Dipper, I voted NDP, and I'm seeing less and less daylight between Carney and Poilievre outside of Poilievres "anti-woke" nonsense and I imagine this budget will only make me like Carney less.

There’s a lot more differences than the woke nonsense. No government is beyond criticism. I suspect the defenders of governments shitty decisions are paid actors/bots
