You sweet summer child.

Trudeau was saying Harper was tarnishing our democracy.

Quote:
The voting ballot is the most fundamental symbol of democracy. Under Harper’s Conservatives, this symbol was devalued, tarnished and ridiculed.

...

We are committed to ensuring that the 2015 election will be the last federal election using first-past-the-post.
That was a fun promise, whatever happened to it?

Quote:
“While Canadians struggle to make ends meet, Stephen Harper gives billions to the wealthiest few. Mulcair irresponsibly supports Harper’s plan to give more money to millionaires and will make major cuts to public services,” said Mr. Trudeau.
Heck 9 years later, he's still blaming Harper.

Quote:
”Stephen Harper allowed Loblaws to acquire Shoppers [Drug Mart], thereby decreasing competition in Canada’s grocery industry,” Liberal MP Kevin Lamoureux told the House of Commons on Nov. 23. “He is the one who brought [the number of supermarket chains] down ultimately to five companies.”

Canada is experiencing a severe housing shortage. Mr. Trudeau knows who’s at fault. In September, he pinned the shortage on “the previous Conservative government that got out of the business of housing in this country.” Now we know why so many people can’t afford a down payment, or rent.

Stephen Harper’s Conservatives “had a $55-billion deficit in 2010-11, and what did Canadian citizens get? They got nothing,” Liberal MP Michael Coteau told the House.
Poilievre is blaming the current government for the housing crisis and high grocery prices while Trudeau is still blaming a government from 9 years ago for current issues under their watch, including housing and groceries.

Which do you think resonates more for Canadians?

And yes politicians will point to past governments as excuses if they are unable to fix issues themselves, Poilievre and the CPC will be no exception. I'm just curious why you are concerned that the next government may blame a past government in the future when the current government has done it for 9 years and is still actively doing it.
