I think just in general, the first term of any leader is usually their best. The longer a leader stays in power, the more their job becomes just trying to repair mistakes and image issues. The job essentially becomes more than 50% just trying to stay in power instead of making strong policy decisions that they have to stand by.
I really wish Canadian parties adopted some kind of term limit rules. It seems to always happen that the parties let one leader run things into the ground. It's just so dumb and they all do it.
