A lot of Canadians understand that effects come after causes, it's why we're such great debaters in GenOT

Our economy started tanking before Trudeau stepped into office - we don't put that on him. We recognize that has to do with dodgy financial speculation against our dollar (which is now greatly over-valuing the degree to which oil hurt us economically) and no diversification of our oil-centric economies in Alberta/Saskatchewan.

Trudeau is now responsible for addressing these problems - and we'll judge his performance on how he successfully he tackles these issues - but creating problems like this in the first place is a uniquely conservative ideal (financial deregulation and 'all-in' economies).
