Trudeau is simply one of dozens and dozens of poor leaders who do not even remotely approach the sheer megalomaniacal incompetence that characterises Trump.

Absolutely true. People who want to complain about Trudeau have grounds, but he's no Trump.
Another thing that is often glossed over is the major difference between Canada and the US. Canada has historically been characterized by good governance. Not necessarily good policy making, but the day to day running of the country is, and has traditionally been sound, if uninspiring at times. Canada has a strong and stable group of bureaucrats and civil servants that are accountable and professional.
It's easy to find fault and complaining about leadership is a national pastime, but we've got it good compared to the clown show to the south.
