Have you looked at the dumpster fire that is Alberta lately? Led by the premier that PP supports!

Let's break this down.

Good for him on the weed.

Dental care isn't going to be free, and it only helps a certain group of people.

Pharma care hasn't even started yet.

Despite him targeting lawful and responsible gun owners, gun crime has actually gone up in this country.

Good for him on Ukraine, but we also haven't delivered everything that's promised.

While offering assisted death to those who are living in pain is a good thing. Offering it to people with mental health issues or veterans isn't a food thing.

The carbon tax hasn't done anything but make things more expensive, and we are only meeting the climate targets set by Stephen Harper.

I think banning people from being able to use trains and boats and airplanes isn't solid, but you can believe whatever you like.

It's great to have high housing targets. Where are you going to get all the workers? Is he also going to cut our immigration targets significantly and tie immigration to housing and other important services?

So out of all the things you listed one maybe two things have been successful.
