Isn't that exactly what Trudeau is doing though? My cousin is littering Facebook with messages of "Vote Trudeau, he will get us a se lrt, while Harper sits around and does nothing". He was waffling between LPC and NDP. I think most people don't look at what something is going to cost, just how it benefits them. Like your example of the reno tax credit. However, what Trudeau and Mulcair are doing is the exact same as Harper. Just different ways of going about it. And it's all ridiculous.
